Chapter 40 There is a fire in the backyard

As soon as it was dawn, the low horn sounded over the camp.

With the sound of the horn, the whole barracks suddenly moved, like a dusty machine, running in an orderly manner.

The Firehead Army was busy preparing food, while the soldiers finally made preparations before departure. The whole camp seemed busy but not busy.

With the rise of the first ray of sunrise, 3,000 vanguard troops were waiting to be finished. In the sound of the horn, a row came out of the camp and went up to the Shuojiang River and went straight to the Jiangbei camp of the Huan army.

Huan's Jiangbei camp is less than 200 miles from here, so there is no need to march urgently, which can also ensure that the soldiers have sufficient physical strength.

As a vanguard officer, Meng Chang pressed the battle in the central army, while Lu Qiang took the lead and took his people to the forefront of the team.

The rising sun is shining brightly.

Looking at the vibrant earth under the morning sun in the distance, Lu Qiang's heart is also full of pride.

Jiankang, I'm back, Huan Xuan, I'm back. This time I'm going to take back the profits you owe me. I'm going to use your head to pay tribute to my beloved wife.

Lu Qiang did not realize that he had been poisoned deeply, and there were two almost insoluble poisons. One is called hatred and the other is called rights.

If he wants revenge, he must take more power, so his poison will become deeper and deeper.

One more thing he knows is that his strength seems to have stagnated these days. Although the pills are still taking them, they are no longer as strong as they did at the beginning.

Although Lu Qiang has not officially practiced martial arts, he vaguely feels that he may have reached a bottleneck, and if the old man is there at this time, he may tell him what to do. Unfortunately, he has no time now, and at the same time, he is not in the mood to find the old way.

Lu Qiang is also a horse*, but he didn't have a weapon to take advantage of. Later, he thought about it and finally chose a horse. According to his idea, this thing looks easier to use. There is no need for too fancy moves. The shortcoming is that it is too light.

I don't know that the eight-foot snake spear used by Zhang Fei in those years is an improved version of Ma Yu. If you all think so according to the road, everyone can be Zhang Fei.

Just as the Beifu army left the station, a luxurious carriage rushed to Guangling City under the protection of nearly 100 bodyguards.

The morning was the busiest moment for the people to enter the city, but this group of people simply ignored the people on the road and ran wildly. Some of them dodge slowly and immediately waved their whips and drove the people to the roadside like driving animals away.

For a moment, at the gate, the chickens and dogs jumped and cried.

Some soldiers really couldn't stand it. They just wanted to go up and stop it, but they were pulled by the quick-eyed boss.

"Looking for death! Don't you look at whose carriage it is? Jiangnan Lu family, we can't afford to provoke. Hurry back and pretend that you haven't seen anything."

With the cooperation of the little officer, a passage quickly flashed out at the gate, allowing this extremely arrogant horse team to rush into the city.

The motorcade quickly stopped in front of a mansion in Nancheng, when dozens of men and women were waiting outside the gate.

As the carriage stopped, a slave immediately lay next to the carriage and acted as a ladder for people on the carriage to step on.

When the curtain of the carriage was opened, I saw an old lady in gorgeous clothes with silver hair but a horizontal face and fierce eyes sticking out her head from it. A middle-aged man quickly greeted him, supported the old lady with his hand and stepped on the back of the domestic slave.

The old lady has to be more than 70 years old, but her skills are very neat. After getting off the carriage, she said eagerly, "Where is my good grandson? How is he? Take me to see him"

The middle-aged man quickly comforted: "Mother, don't worry. Baoer is fine, just a little frightened..."

"Bang!"

Before the middle-aged man finished his words, he had been slapped on the face. Although it was not heavy, he really shocked the middle-aged man and knelt down in a hurry.

"Mother is angry, and the child knows it's wrong"

"Do you know what's wrong? Where are you wrong? Let me tell you, if my baby has three advantages and two shortcomings, I won't live."

The old lady didn't give her son a chance to explain at all. With the help of the maid, she quickly walked inside.

The middle-aged man is the third head of the Lu family. His name is Lu Wenyu. His eldest brother is in Jiankang, and he is the servant of the Ministry of Li. His second brother is in the place. He is currently the governor of Dongyang. In fact, he is now the ruler of this family.

The teenager of the Lu family who tried to kidnap Xie Wushuang was the only son of his eldest brother. His eldest brother was also in his fifties and had a son, so the Lu family was very arrogant about this little ancestor.

The girl the boy saw didn't get it, and he was scared out of illness by Lu Qiang. After coming back, he had a high fever. Lu Wenyu did not dare to hide it. While sending someone to tell his brother, he told his ancestors who lived in a courtyard in the countryside.

The ancestor of the Lu family was famous for protecting his shortcomings. After getting the news, he rushed over overnight without saying anything.

He was beaten by his mother. Lu Wenyu only stroked his face and smiled bitterly. He turned around and was about to follow in. Suddenly, he remembered that he had sent someone to inquire about the details of the soldier, and he didn't know how he was doing. When his mother asked, he had an explanation.

The Lu family is a force in Guangling. Of course, this little thing has already been clarified.

After a housekeeper said a few words to Lu Wenyu, Lu Wenyu frowned and then waved his hand to let the housekeeper retreat, and then walked inside.

In Lu Bao's bedroom, the old lady is looking at her grandson with concern.

In fact, Lu Bao's injury is not serious at all. The reason for this is that half is scary and partly pretended. He hasn't suffered this loss since he was a child! How can he be willing without this evil breath? He knew that only by pretending to be more serious would his family take revenge more fiercely against the man who hurt him.

"Grandma, you have to make the decision for your grandson!"

This boy's intelligence has been used here, and he said with a snot and tears, making it look like the truth.

"If the grandson doesn't cry, grandma will definitely vent his anger on you"

After comforting her grandson in a soft voice, the old lady immediately changed her face when she turned her head to her son.

"What are you still standing here for? Why don't you arrest me?"

Lu Wenyu is actually not bad, and after knowing what happened, he also knew that his nephew was at fault first, but in front of his mother, of course he could not say so.

"The mother was angry. That's what happened. The murderer was a small officer in Beifu. Because Baoer fell in love with Xie Taishou's daughter, she had a misunderstanding, which hurt Baoer. And that officer has gone with the army to fight against Huan Xuan. Maybe it's hard to say whether he can come back alive!"

The old lady is old and refined. After her son's words, she also guessed a general idea, but even if her grandson is wrong, what's wrong? I can't hurt my grandson.

I just heard that the murderer has gone to the battlefield, but I feel more comfortable. How many people have fought back in ancient times? Everyone knows this.

Turned his head and said to his grandson, "Bao'er really likes the girl of the Xie family?"

I heard that Lu Qiang had gone to the battlefield, and Lu Bao's illness was half cured immediately. Now that he heard what his grandmother said, Xie Wushuang's delicate face immediately appeared in front of him.

He nodded hurriedly and said, "Sun'er won't marry her"

The old lady nodded and turned back to her son and said, "You can go to the Xie family and settle this matter. You can be our daughter-in-law to the Lu family. She is also ancestor."

"Mother, don't worry, son is going now"

Lu Wenyu didn't think it was difficult. After all, it was not the era of Xie Xuan.

The sky in February is also like a naughty child, which will be good and bad.

In the morning, the sky was still clear. Before noon, the dark clouds curled up. After a while, the raindrops fell from the sky. Looking around, the world has also become hazy.

Lu Qiang's people, as a vanguard force, have to continue to move forward even if they are knifed in the sky without orders.

Although 3,000 people are the leading troops, the scouts have been sent out long before them and fed back the situation in front of them to Lu Qiang from time to time.

The rain was getting stronger and bigger. Meng Chang finally ordered people to tell Lu Qiang to camp on the ground and strengthen vigilance to avoid being taken advantage of by the Huan army.

Looking at the rain in the sky, Lu Qiang couldn't help frowning deeply. In fact, there is something he has always been a little confused. Why is Huan Jun several times more than himself? Why is he only willing to stick to it? Are you so afraid of the Beifu army?

Another possibility is that Huan Jun knew that there were few soldiers in Beifu and wanted to drag the soldiers to death by dragging them. Of course, this is Lu Qiang's own idea.

Because under normal circumstances, more than 30,000 people want to conquer the camp garrisoned by 100,000 troops in one fell swoop, which is almost no different from dreaming.

How can Liu Yi and others not think of something that a new recruit can think of?

Somehow, Lu Qiang's heart suddenly became anxious.

The soldiers quickly set up their tents, and Lu Qiang called Luo Song over. Luo Song was an old scout, and he was familiar with the nearby terrain.

"This damn weather... Master, are you looking for me?

Soon, Luo Song came to Lu Qiang's tent, shaking the drops of water on his body and talking.

"You are familiar with the terrain around here. How far is it from the enemy's camp now? Also, do you think the enemy will take advantage of this weather to attack us?"

Luo Song smiled and said, "Master, you are a little worried. This is still more than 100 miles away from the Huan army camp. Although there are hills nearby, it is not suitable for ambush, and the crossbows are also useless in rainy days. In addition, the brothers of the camp led by the regiment are outside. The enemy just want to sneak attack, but I'm afraid it's not so easy."

Lu Qiang knows the failure of the crossbow in rainy days, but even if there is no crossbow, there are more enemy troops than his own! One-on-one, perhaps the Beifu Army is strong, but if the enemy invades, the 3,000 people in the vanguard battalion are not enough.

The more Lu Qiang thought about it, the more worried he felt. He said to Luo Song, "Sent our brothers out and strengthen the vigilance around. I'll go to the general."

Seeing that Lu Qiang doesn't believe his guess, Luo Song is a little unnatural. Anyway, he is a veteran. Although you are better at martial arts than me, you may not have more experience than me, right?

Seeing that Luo Song's face was wrong, Lu Qiang patted him on the shoulder and said, "It's always right to be careful. Go ahead!"

Meng Chang's tent has also been set up for a long time, but before Lu Qiang was notified, he heard Meng Chang's angry shouts coming out inside.

"It's raining so heavily and the sight is not good. How can we march? You go back and tell Liu Yi that this is chaos, and I can't execute it."

Another voice said, "My subordinates are just conveying the order of the deputy commander to the general. If you don't respect, that's your business. I will leave."

With the words, a Chinese army in a mandy quickly came out. After coming out, he saw Lu Qiang outside the tent at first glance and couldn't help but be slightly stunned. He was also Liu Yi's own soldier. Naturally, he had seen Lu Qiang in Liu Yi's house.

nodded to Lu Qiang, opened his mouth, and finally said nothing. He jumped on the horse waiting beside him, turned the horse's head and drove back.

Liu Yi actually let Meng Chang lead the army to move forward in the rain?

As a veteran, Liu Yi can't know the danger of such a march!

Looking at Liu Yi's back, Lu Qiang couldn't help but fall into meditation.
