Chapter 862 Night attack on silica iron ore (first update, asking for diamonds)
Luofu is very lively today. It has never been so lively since Luo Zhang went to the north to fight against the Turks. The threshold is almost broken.
What a joke, today is the wedding day of Luo Zhang and the princess.
Compared with the marriage with Gao Yang, this time it will be more lively, which is also related to Luo Zhang's current status.
Luo Zhang was just a baron when he married Gao Yang. Even if he got the first prize in civil and military examinations, he still couldn't get into the eyes of major families. He could only be said to have great potential.
But things are different now. Not only is his title already that of County Duke, but he is also an official of the fourth rank. Coupled with his age of less than twenty, he can enjoy the next twenty years. What level will Luo Zhang reach?
.
To put it bluntly, twenty years later, I am afraid that the entire court will be ruled by Luo Zhang. No matter how much His Majesty favors Luo Zhang, even the current crown prince will always have a close relationship with Luo Zhang.
With such status and potential, who would dare to despise Luo Zhang.
Except for a few families who had bad relations with Luo Zhang, almost all the families in Chang'an either sent people to send congratulatory gifts or came with gifts in person.
There was almost a long queue of carriages in front of Luofu Gate, and there was an endless stream of people.
In the past, Luo Zhang had to greet guests at the door. However, due to his different status, Luo Zhang no longer had to stand at the door. Instead, he sat in the hall of the central courtyard, drinking tea and waiting for the people from the big family to be ushered in.
.
As for those members of small or insignificant families who can't even see Luo Zhang's face, this is the gap in status, not Luo Zhang's pretense.
If they all meet, Luo Zhang will be busy to death!
And if he saw them all, those big families with status would probably feel uncomfortable and feel that Luo Zhang didn't respect them.
Besides, the wedding banquet was just like that, and Luo Zhang didn't want to be so troublesome, but his grandma agreed and insisted on making it a big deal, so he had no choice but to agree.
It's nice to be able to sit here and welcome guests.
Groups of guests arrived, and Luo Zhang greeted them one after another. Luo Zhang knew most of these people. He usually didn't look up when he looked down. How could he not know them?
"Luo Zhang, you are really lucky. Even Chang Le married you back home. I'm afraid Changsun Wuji's nose will be crooked with anger at this time!" Cheng Yaojin shouted carelessly!
"Hahaha, that old man would be so angry. He has such a big heart and is calculating all day long. He has no manliness at all. I thought I was wrong before!" Yuchi Jingde also said unabashedly.
Luo Zhang looked at these two living treasures and smiled bitterly and shook his head. How could he say this on the table? Even if it was clear, he couldn't say it nonsense. These two tough guys were really lawless.
But it doesn't matter, even if this word gets out, Changsun Wuji can't do anything to these two people, he can only hate them with itching teeth.
The status of Yuchi Jingde and Cheng Yaojin was not comparable to that of a rising star like him, and it was even more difficult to move them.
After hearing this, the heads of the other major families looked at me and I looked at you, all with speechless and bitter smiles on their faces. They just listened to this and said it was impossible to say. As heads of the family, they naturally had to do it.
For the sake of the family, we should not provoke a big enemy for the family.
"Luo Zhang, this is the gift I brought you. Changle has been motherless since he was a child. You must be nice to me, Changle. If I find out that you are not good to Changle, I will tear your skin off."
The person who could say such a thing was none other than Li Xiaogong. He bared his big yellow teeth, stared at Luo Zhang, and said with a threatening look.
Luo Zhang looked at the congratulatory gifts brought by Li Xiaogong, and listened to what he said, he couldn't help but smiled bitterly and shook his head: "I mean, Prince, what you said, how could I treat Changle badly? If I treat Changle badly, I'm afraid Gao Yang will die."
No one will spare me, so just relax!"
Li Xiaogong thought about it, then nodded and said nothing.
Seeing this, the other people followed closely and congratulated him, and the hall in the middle courtyard became lively for a while.
Just when Luo Zhang received the congratulations from everyone, Chen Kuifeng hurried in from outside, whispered a few words in Luo Zhang's ear and then hurried away.
Luo Zhang's face changed slightly when he first said it, but he hid it very well. He still accepted everyone's congratulations with a smile on his face, as if nothing had happened!
At the back gate of the Luofu Mansion, Chen Kuifeng led eighteen cavalrymen and fifty Luofu guardsmen and rode fast horses towards the outside of Chang'an City.
Dozens of miles outside Chang'an City, a fighting was still going on. A team of more than 200 people had just rushed into Luo Zhang's ferrosilicon ore plant.
It is said that the protection of the ferrosilicon ore plant has been much stricter since it was built as a fortress, but even if it is strict, there are still some oversights.
Luo Zhang is getting married today, and the soldiers in the silicon mine were also rewarded with wine and food to celebrate with him.
Although there are still guards patrolling, they are not as strict as usual. This creates opportunities for the raiding troops. By the time these people rush in, it is already too late for the guards to stop them!
They could only send someone to Chang'an to ask for help. This was the news Luo Zhang received when he welcomed the guests.
In the silicite fortress, as more than two hundred people rushed in, the fighting suddenly became fierce. Although the people of Luofu fought hard, the incoming people were all very powerful, and they were not able to resist at all, so they could only fight temporarily.
Retreat, deal with the enemy, and try to delay as much time as possible to wait for rescue.
The visitors seemed to have noticed this, but they didn't pay attention to it. After breaking in, they divided into two groups. They continued to chase the mine guards while searching around for the storage place of ferrosilicon ore.
They are not here to kill people or occupy this place, but just for the ferrosilicon ore. As long as the ferrosilicon ore is obtained, they will retreat as soon as possible.
If Luo Zhang gets the news, he will definitely send someone here. They don't want to have a head-on conflict with Luo Zhang and lose too many troops.
"Boss, this mine is really big. How can I find it?" A masked strong man rode a horse and asked the man in front of him.
"According to the map given by the employer, it should be in the southeast direction. Send people to search there. Move quickly. If you find it, transport it away immediately. We don't have much time!" the leader ordered.
His subordinates took action one after another, leading their men and horses to rush toward the southeast.
Southeast of the ferrosilicon mine, a weapons workshop has been built here. On weekdays, the master master and his disciples would make fires and strike iron here, casting weapons and armor. Today, Luo Zhang is having a wedding banquet, and the master master is also here.
He was invited, so he was not in the mine. There were only his disciples in the mine.
While the master was away, these disciples also closed the stall early and were drinking wine and eating meat in the house. These were all rewards from Luo Zhang.
Fortunately, they were not here and escaped, otherwise they would all have been massacred.
They escaped, but the weapons workshop suffered.
The people who came here did not expect to find a large number of weapons and armor here. Although their mission was ore, the leaders were people from Mozi. They had no use for the ore, but on the contrary, these weapons and armor were of great use to them.
