Chapter 69
Lin Dong looked up and saw that this person was very similar to Wu Yue, but there was a hint of childishness between his eyebrows.
"This is Mr. Lin." Wu Yue pointed at Lin Dong and said.
"I know, I guess Mr. Lin will be my brother-in-law from now on, right?" Wuyang said with a smirk on his face.
"What does a little brat know?" Xiao Wu said angrily.
"Sister, I heard everything, don't be embarrassed." Wuyang said, looking Lin Dong up and down, and said in a loud voice: "Didn't sister say that Mr. Lin Dong is both talented and handsome, and handsome? How does he look like that?
He's not as handsome as you say he is with a gray face!"
"Wuyang, shut up!"
Lin Dong suddenly looked embarrassed. He had just been caught by several guards, his hair was messed up, and his clothes were in a mess. His image must not be much better.
But then I felt happy again and thought to myself: It seems that the little dancing girl has a pretty high opinion of me. Am I really that good?
"Master Lin, my younger brother is ignorant, I hope you won't take offense!" Wu Yue said with a blush on her face after being told what she was worried about.
Lin Dong waved his hands hurriedly, even saying it didn't matter, but he was very happy in his heart.
Soon, several people returned to their ship again. Since Yang Ze had committed suicide, the people on the ship did not stop them from leaving.
Lin Dong glanced at Fengyang from a distance, shook his head and sighed: "Let's go!"
Li Da accepted the order and immediately ordered the boatman to sail back.
The ship had not sailed far when suddenly there was a shaking in the grass in the distance, and then there was a sound of weapons being exchanged.
"General, there's something going on over there." Li Da was startled and thought to himself: Could it be that the intruders are coming to kill us?
"Send someone over to take a look." Lin Dong frowned slightly. Judging from the situation, there shouldn't be many people there.
Several guards immediately got on the boat and soon arrived at the shore.
Soon they found out the situation and reported it to Lin Dong.
It turned out that a group of intruders in front was chasing the fat and one thin man. The fat man was clumsy and an ordinary person, but the tall and thin man was highly skilled in martial arts. In the blink of an eye, he had injured several intruders.
Unfortunately, the intruders were too numerous to kill. After several battles, the thin man seemed to have run out of gas. Even so, the intruders still had power, and the intruders did not dare to get too close. If no one came to save them, the two of them would be dead.
I'm just afraid that I won't be able to hold on for long.
After listening to Li Da's story, Lin Dong suddenly became interested. Could it be that the tall and thin man was also good at martial arts?
Every boy has a martial arts dream hidden in his heart, and Lin Dong is very envious of his martial arts skills. Until now, he still remembers the grace of those knights who traveled the world with swords in the story of Jin Daxia.
He once even had the urge to give up everything and walk to the end of the world with his sword, but he was forced by life and ultimately failed to do so.
"Let's go and take a look." Lin Dong jumped on the boat, and the sound of paddles was heard, and soon the boat came to the shore.
Just as Lin Dong and others arrived at the shore, shouts came from the grass again, followed by the sound of weapons being handed over. However, because the reed grass was too high, Lin Dong and others could only hear the sound but not see the person.
Lin Dong pushed aside the grass and moved forward. Soon he came to a flat land, and only then could he see clearly the situation on the clearing.
I saw a tall and thin man holding a long sword in his hand, and the force he wielded was impervious to wind and rain. Wherever he went, a soldier from the insurgent army would be injured and fell to the ground. He quickly beat several intruders who came up to him.
Defeat and retreat.
"Good swordsmanship!" Lin Dong couldn't help but praise. He had only seen the so-called martial arts on TV before, but now that he saw it with his own eyes, it was no worse than what he saw on TV.
After watching for a while, the tall and thin man finally forced back the invading soldiers and retreated again.
Only then did Lin Dong cast his gaze behind the tall and thin man. He saw a middle-aged man with a big belly sitting on the ground panting. He had obviously run far away and could no longer walk.
"Is it him?" Lin Dong was slightly startled. Isn't it such a coincidence that he actually knew the man in front of him?
"Who?" Li Da was stunned. At this time, he had not noticed the fat man sitting on the ground.
"You know this guy too, just look at him if you don't believe me." Li Da looked up and saw Shang Ba sitting on the ground.
Shang Ba had lived in Antonjun for half a year, so Li Da naturally knew him.
"It's him. General, do you want to save him?"
Lin Dong shook his head and said, "Let's see and then talk."
In fact, the reason why he said this was just to take a good look at the martial arts of this tall and thin man.
He even had a ridiculous idea in his mind, that is, after taking the tall and thin man back, he would become his disciple.
Seeing that they could not capture each other in a short period of time, the group of rebel soldiers suddenly became furious. A leader-looking soldier rushed out first, shouting loudly: "I'll hold the skinny guy down, you guys catch the fat guy first."
"
"Yes" all the soldiers agreed in unison, and then they rushed towards Shang Ba and the others with their long swords in hand.
Before the thin man could catch his breath, the enemy rushed forward. In desperation, the thin man had no choice but to raise his sword and fight.
Perhaps the tall and thin man was too tired or had been injured before. Soon someone found a flaw and slashed his arm, causing blood to flow profusely.
"Hurry up and take action!" Lin Dong was anxious when his favorite master was injured. He was still counting on the master to teach him martial arts. If he was killed like this, it would be a huge loss.
Li Da did not dare to neglect and immediately rushed out with his soldiers.
The intruders obviously didn't expect that there were other people here, and they all jumped out of the fighting circle.
Chuang Jun glanced over and was shocked when he saw that Li Da and others were all wearing armor, with only two sharp eyes exposed.
"You, are you Anton Army?"
"Even if you still have some eyesight, you can actually recognize us." Li Da nodded. Li Da didn't participate in the battle that day and night, so he didn't know much about the battle. Naturally, he didn't feel anything strange about the intruders?
"They are really the Anton Army, run quickly, the Anton Army is back." The soldiers suddenly panicked and even dropped the weapons in their hands and ran towards the way they came as if they were herding ducks.
"Are we so scary?" Li Da secretly cursed.
Lin Dong secretly laughed in his heart, these invaders are really bad, but they are so scared after just losing a battle, how can they go to the battlefield to fight in the future?
"Is it you?" Soon, Shang Ba recognized Lin Dong and was greatly surprised.
"What do you think?" Lin Dong smiled.
"Thank you, General, for saving my life. Counting this time, General has saved my life twice." Shang Ba bowed deeply.
At this time, the tall and thin man also took care of the injury on his hand and came over and said: "Thank you, General!"
"Are you Yang Jiu?" Lin Dong was slightly startled. He never expected that Yang Jiu, who was cold-faced and unassuming, was actually a master.
"It's me." The man sighed in shame: "In the past, when I saw the general, I didn't take it seriously. I didn't think that the general was the master. The soldiers in the army were so scared when they saw the general. It shows that the general is extraordinary."
"Thank you, thank you." Lin Dong waved his hands repeatedly. Yang Jiu was a master in his mind. At this time, he was thinking about how to become his teacher, but he felt a little embarrassed when he heard the other party's compliment.
"If there were no generals today, Brother Shang and I would have to be here." Yang Jiu shook his head.
"Um, what's going on with you two?" Lin Dong looked at the two of them for a while and asked.
"Speaking of this matter, I regret it. If I had listened to the general, I wouldn't have been like this!" Shang Ba said regretfully.
Lin Dong sighed and said, "How could you two be chased by the intruders?"
"Brother Yang Jiu and I were delivering a batch of goods in the city. We didn't want the intruders to suddenly attack us. We were caught off guard, so we had to abandon the goods and escape from the city. We didn't want to happen to meet the intruders attacking the imperial mausoleum. The thieves chased me when they saw my gorgeous clothes.
When we came up, Brother Yang Jiu and I managed to break out of the enemy's siege. He himself also suffered several stab wounds. When we met the general, we were already exhausted. If the general hadn't saved him, Brother Yang Jiu and I would have been alone.
I'm afraid I will fall into the hands of thieves." Shang Ba explained his experience in simple language.
Lin Dong shook his head slightly, yes, in troubled times, no one can survive.
"Although the thief has retreated, he can't guarantee whether he will return. Let's get on the boat first."
Shang and Ba nodded in agreement and followed Lin Dong onto the ship.
After sitting down in the cabin, Lin Dongcai said: "I wonder what your plans are?"
Shang Ba sighed and said: "Now that our home is destroyed, what else can we plan for? Let's just live one day at a time."
"I wonder if your families are okay?" Shang Ba had lived in Anton Army for so long, and the two of them were considered friends, so he asked.
"When the army entered the city, our brothers also went back to see my wife and the others..." At this point, Shang Ba and his wife could not help but shed tears.
Lin Dong also shook his head secretly. People are like this. They won't give up until they reach the Yellow River. If Shang Ba had listened to his advice and left Fengyang, he would have lost his family, his wife and his family.
"I wonder where you two are going?"
"Where can we go? We can only take one step at a time." Shang Ba said with a sigh.
"If Boss Shang doesn't mind, how about joining our Anton Army?" Lin Dong asked tentatively.
"General, what do you mean by this?" Shang Ba was stunned. He had not thought about where to go, but he had never considered joining the Anton Army.
"If you two have nowhere to go, I, the Anton Army, will welcome you." Lin Dong said with a slight smile.
Shang Ba was silent for a while, then turned to look at Yang Jiu and said, "What are your plans, brother?"
Yang Jiu paused slightly and said: "The general saved Yang Jiu's life. Even if the general doesn't tell me, I will follow the general."
"That's the case, then I, Shang Ba, should stay. Anyway, my life, Shang Ba, has no meaning anymore. As long as Anton Army can help me avenge the destruction of my family and my family, there is nothing to be afraid of even if I, Shang Ba, die.
of!"
Lin Dong nodded and said: "If one day I encounter the Chuang army on the battlefield, I, Lin Dong, will never show mercy."
"Thank you so much, General!" Shang Ba bowed deeply.
He has an idea about Shang Ba. Now the Anton Army's frame has been set up and the military position of Qianhu Officer has been obtained.
It's just that although I have gained a lot of money now, if I just sit back and have nothing, I will go back to before liberation in a few years. The best way is to increase revenue and reduce expenditure. If you want to increase revenue, the best way is to do business. Through business, you can get a lot of money.
amount of profit.
Judging from the time he has been in contact with Shang Ba, this person is very talented in business. If he is allowed to be responsible for business, it will definitely bring a steady stream of wealth to Anton Army.
After Lin Dong settled Xiao Wu and his brother, he and Shang Ba sat down as guests and hosts. They talked with each other, and unknowingly the ship had returned to the pontoon.
When they returned there, the people had all crossed the Huaihe River and reached the other side. They were now resting. Some young children had no idea what this war meant, so they were playing on the plains.
Looking at the group of carefree children, Lin Dong seemed to feel a lot more at ease. The safety of the people was basically guaranteed here, but he couldn't just leave them here. How to deal with these people became his worry.
