Volume Four, Three Southern Counties, Chapter 398, Eventful Autumn
Shuizhou County, Xu Mansion.
Mr. Xu called his eighth son Xu Yuan.
"Father!"
Xu Yuan said respectfully.
"You should know about your sister, right?" Mr. Xu asked.
"I understand, my father has trained my sister for so long. In order to get rid of your father's control, she actually turned to the young prince Zhou Zheng and betrayed my father." Xu Yuan said angrily, "Do you need me to summon some people to get rid of her?"
"No, that's Jingzhao Mansion. Don't make trouble." Mr. Xu waved his hand, "Don't cause trouble under the eyes of the new emperor."
"Since she has gained a short period of freedom through the support of Prince Gong, my father will not say anything more." Mr. Xu looked at Xu Yuan, "My father is mainly worried about you!"
"Father, don't worry, I will never betray you." Xu Yuan said hurriedly.
"Hahaha, Yuan'er is still considerate, much better than that bitch Xu Yuanshan." Mr. Xu laughed.
On the surface, he called Xu Yuan to ask about this matter.
In fact, he was beating his eighth son.
Be obedient!
Don't learn from your sister.
If Xu Yuan has thoughts of escaping, once there is no strong backer, what awaits Xu Yuan is thunderous means.
Mr. Xu will not show any mercy.
There are too many children, and naturally some of them I like and some I hate.
Xu Yuan should know exactly what to do.
"The one and a half million taels of gold and a quantity of grain will be sent to Jiangshui County by you and handed over to Lord Lu." Mr. Xu said.
"Father, this is too much! The 1.5 million taels of gold our family has earned is the result of the efforts of many people. But Lu Jiuzhang just said a word and asked us to donate it. Isn't it a bit excessive?"
Xu Yuan said angrily.
"It's very excessive, but do you dare to refute? Do you dare to raise objections?" Mr. Xu glared at his son, "If Lu Jiuzhang was a dragon lurking in the abyss before, then now he is a dragon soaring all over the world!"
"Have you heard that in order to stabilize Lu Jiuzhang, the new emperor killed a minister?"
"Although there is evidence to prove that Lord Shangshu is guilty, he is a second-rank official! And how many other ministers in the court do not have extra income?"
"The new emperor really loves Lu Jiuzhang!"
"If the new emperor doesn't fall for a day, don't be his enemy for a day!"
Mr. Xu sighed.
In this world, without a strong background, it will be difficult to move forward!
And among his own heirs, there was actually a bitch who was disobedient and made him so angry that he couldn't even sleep!
Life is getting harder and harder!
"Understood!"
Xu Yuan nodded.
"I'll leave this matter to you. Don't make any mistakes." Mr. Xu warned, "After you come back, our Xu family can find a way to move out."
"I definitely can't stay in Shuizhou County any longer. I want to go north to Beilu County!"
Mr. Xu has already made a decision.
"Is that the place where Lu Jiuzhang lived before?" Xu Yuan asked.
"That's right, the place is to the north. Even if the demon clan launches a large-scale attack, they won't be able to reach there in a short time. But the place is too remote, and it will probably be uneven along the way!"
…
Jiangshui County!
Lu Jiuzhang is finally back.
The demon tribe has occupied half of the territory of Jiangshui County and is approaching the city of Jiangshui County.
The old general Xuan Wuyun stood on the city wall, looking at the monsters below.
Half a month ago, these demon tribes attacked Jiangshui County. The old general Xuan Wuyun gathered his troops and concentrated them all in the county to resist.
This also led to the loss of other counties and prefectures.
Looking at the densely packed monsters below, the old general Xuan Wuyun also felt dizzy.
These are the elite of the demon clan, and they are just the vanguard.
Three hundred thousand demon soldiers defeated the Zhou Dynasty one after another.
But those monsters didn't attack the city, they were just waiting under the city.
The old general Xuan Wuyun knew that the leader of the team this time was the eldest son of the Demon Emperor, who was known as the Demon Clan's first genius.
The reason why it didn't attack the city was because it was waiting!
Wait for Lu Jiuzhang to come!
In the previous battle, Lu Jiuzhang penetrated the demon realm alone.
Due to its cultivation, it was unable to take action.
But now that it has invaded the Zhou Dynasty, it is bound to avenge its previous humiliation and kill Lu Jiuzhang.
So, it's not in a hurry.
"General, Lu Jiuzhang is here!"
Below, a deputy general came to report.
"What a troubled time!"
The old general Xuan Wuyun sighed.
If he really wanted to say it, he didn't want Lu Jiuzhang to come.
Because Lu Jiuzhang is extremely talented, but his current cultivation level is not as good as the first genius of the demon clan.
If Lu Jiuzhang's martial arts reaches the third level, he might be able to fight.
But it's too forced now.
But there is no way, for a proud man like Lu Jiuzhang, if the enemy provokes him, if he refuses to fight, his martial arts spirit will definitely be frustrated!
Cannot retreat!
This is the code of geniuses!
Once you take one step back, you will take another step back, and in the end your will to martial arts will collapse.
Without the energy to move forward, the whole person would be useless.
Isn’t this the case for my grandson Xuan Wuyun?
…
In the Chinese military tent.
The old general Xuan Wuyun met his grandson and also met Lu Jiuzhang.
Grandson Xuan Wuyun's complexion is obviously much better, but he is still a little sluggish.
But Lu Jiuzhang was still as energetic and confident as he had seen before.
The spirit remains strong!
"Lu Jiuzhang, meet the old general!"
Lu Jiuzhang cupped his hands and said.
"Master Lu, you're welcome!" Xuan Wuyun said politely, "His Majesty asked you to prepare a team, but Jiangshui County has a mixed staff now, so it may be difficult!"
In Jiangshui County now, the old general Xuan Wuyun leads a remnant army of tens of thousands of people, as well as 150,000 new troops mobilized from the surrounding areas by the new emperor.
There are also 20,000 to 30,000 warriors in the trial field!
As well as various warriors coming from various places, the people were mixed.
It is extremely difficult to unify these people.
The old general Xuan Wuyun originally wanted to use strong means to integrate, but as soon as he took action, some warriors left Jiangshui County, and the other party seemed unwilling to join the old general's command.
"It doesn't matter, now that I'm here, no matter whether it can be organized or not, I will be a member of the old general's command, and I will be at the disposal of the old general!" Lu Jiuzhang said with his hands.
On the battlefield, it is most taboo to act without authorization.
Since the old general is the supreme commander, Lu Jiuzhang can only cooperate!
Once there is a disagreement, you do your thing and he does his, and it is easy for the monsters to break them one by one.
"Marquis Wanhu!"
"Marquis Wanhu!"
"Marquis Wanhu!"
"..."
At this moment, chaotic shouting came from outside the Chinese army tent.
"What's going on?"
The old general Xuan Wuyun frowned.
"It's the warriors from the training ground!" The deputy general came over in a hurry and reported, "They seem to know that Lu Jiuzhang is preparing a team, so they are coming one after another!"
"It seems that he wants to join Master Lu!" This chapter has been completed!
