Volume Four, Three Southern Counties, Chapter 402, Sorrowful Face
Jiangshui County, west of the city!
The Iron Blood Battalion suffered more than 5,000 casualties in the battle!
But the rewards are great!
After this battle, at least nearly ten thousand monsters were killed.
There was a special place where Qianji Tower was stationed in the west of the city. More than a thousand of these monsters were left as rations, and the remaining Lu Jiuzhang were sent to Qianji Tower.
The estimate given by Qianjilou is more than 16 million taels of gold.
The gold was delivered on the spot, and then Lu Jiuzhang replaced a large number of armors and weapons, as well as a lot of training materials.
At the same time, Lu Jiuzhang also took out dozens of big monsters captured alive in the storage ring and bled them on the spot!
In the city, Lu Jiuzhang had people gather all the wooden barrels in the city. He planned to improve the cultivation level of the warriors of the Iron Blood Camp by using the tempering method!
Thousands of people were soaked in boiling hot water at the same time, supplemented by the blood of monsters and beasts, and supplemented by spiritual herbs for training.
Blood energy surged all over the sky, and a blood cloud appeared in the sky above the west side of Jiangshui County.
The smell of blood is even stronger!
In contrast to the smell of blood, Chengxi began to eat monster meat wantonly!
The smell of meat filled the entire Jiangshui County, even drifting outside the city and into the territory of the demon clan.
…
"You bastard! Next time I attack the city, I will behead Lu Jiuzhang."
Yao Wuming is furious!
The last time it was blocked, it couldn't take action against Lu Jiuzhang.
Today, Lu Jiuzhang was so provocative!
It really makes Yao Wuming very angry!
"Emperor, there is no need to be angry. When should we take action?" a monster asked.
It refers to the operation against the old general Xuan Wuyun.
"Wait for two more days and let the monsters under my command rest for a while!" Yao Wuming said slowly, "We will start spreading the news the day after tomorrow at the latest."
"promise!"
The monster nodded.
Yao Wuming stood in the tent and looked towards Jiangshui County.
Originally, he planned to capture Jiangshui County within three days.
Unexpectedly, the failure of the first siege, plus the days of rest, had already exceeded three days!
The day after tomorrow, the general attack!
Take Jiangshui County in one fell swoop!
Yao Wuming gave himself a death order!
In the distance, his father is still watching. If his father is disappointed, then he will not be favored in the future.
…
Jiangshui County.
Many warriors looked at the camp where the Iron-Blooded Camp was with envy.
All the people in the city have moved away, and most of them are warriors or warriors.
Lu Jiuzhang's treatment in the Iron Blood Camp was so good that others were a little jealous.
"Master Jiu, I'm here!"
In the main tent of Iron Blood Camp, Lu Jiuzhang was eating monster meat, and when his mouth was full of oil, there was a burst of shouting outside.
I saw little fat man Zhou Zheng barging in.
"It's a coincidence that you came here. We are just having dinner."
Lu Jiuzhang stood up with a smile.
"It must be a coincidence. When I entered the city, I smelled the scent of monster meat." The fat man Zhou Zheng laughed and sat next to Lu Jiuzhang. He pulled up the hind legs of a monster beast on the table and started to chew on it.
.
He murmured to himself, "Needless to say, it must have been baked by a girl from the Bai family. I am very familiar with this taste."
"Compared to the cooks in your palace, they are still far behind." Lu Jiuzhang said.
"No way! The girl from the Bai family baked it. Regardless of anything else, just for this friendship, it's a plus. How can the cooks in my house compare to the girls from the Bai family?"
The little fat man Zhou Zheng said cheerfully, "I didn't come here in vain. I brought over a thousand pieces of armor suitable for a seventh-level martial arts warrior from Jingzhao Mansion, and a hundred pieces of armor suitable for a sixth-level martial arts warrior!"
"On the way, I also went to my father-in-law's house and got some treasures from him."
"By the way, I brought that Xu Yuan here too." The little fat man Zhou Zheng said with a smile, "I heard that Master Jiu, when you left Jingzhao Mansion and went to Jiangshui County, you also passed through Shuizhou County and came here specially.
There is an autumn breeze blowing at my father-in-law’s house.”
"I got one and a half million taels of gold!"
"Master Jiu, this is my father-in-law's family. The autumn wind you hit my father-in-law is the autumn wind you hit me. Have you figured out how to repay me?"
"At the very least, you are not allowed to arrange a place for me in the Iron-Blooded Camp?"
"It's too low, I don't dare!"
The fat little Zhou Zheng looked at Lu Jiuzhang eagerly.
"Don't worry, the position has been arranged for you. Now you are the deputy battalion commander of the Iron Blood Battalion, and your status is only below me." Lu Jiuzhang said, "Is Xu Yuanshan pregnant with your child?"
"What Xu Yuanshan? That's called the princess!" Zhou Zheng, the little fat man, corrected, "Although she is not yet, as long as she can give birth to a son, the princess will be fine and will not run away."
"What if it's a daughter?" Lu Jiuzhang still teased.
"It would be difficult for a daughter. If I hadn't died, there would be a high probability that my mother would take her back and give birth to a new baby. It seems I won't give up if I don't give birth to a son this time."
When he talked about this, the little fat boy Zhou Zheng looked a little sad.
There is no way, and he doesn’t want to either!
But in clan society, sons are highly valued.
"By the way, my eighth uncle has been waiting outside for a long time. Let him come in." The little fat man Zhou Zheng said.
"Can!"
Lu Jiuzhang nodded.
Immediately, a subordinate summoned him.
A moment later, Xu Yuan stood in Lu Jiuzhang's tent.
He was quite envious of Lu Jiuzhang and the fat little Zhou Zheng.
In Shuizhou County, when nothing happened, he would imagine that one day he would be so prosperous.
But things went counterproductive!
To take part in the examination, he was just from the same background as a Jinshi.
Until now, I am still being beaten by my father all day long!
"Greetings to Mr. Lu, young prince!"
Xu Yuan said respectfully.
"Brother, why are you so polite? Sit down." The little fat man Zhou Zheng pointed to the chair next to him and said.
"Thank you, young prince!"
Xu Yuan sat on the chair and took out a storage ring, "This is the gold that my father promised Mr. Lu at that time to finance the Iron Blood Camp, and there is also a lot of food on the way. It will arrive at Jiangshui County in the next two days."
Already."
"This storage ring is the material my father promised the young prince to support the Iron Blood Camp."
After taking out the two storage rings, Xu Yuan's mission was completed.
"Thank you very much, Mr. Xu, and also thank you Jinshi Xu for sending these supplies. It can be said to be a timely help for our Iron Blood Battalion."
Lu Jiuzhang must be polite when someone gives so many things as a gift and cannot lose his etiquette.
"Mr. Lu, you're welcome." Xu Yuan cupped his hands, "Now that the things have been delivered, it's time for me to leave."
Ever since entering Jiangshui County, Xu Yuan felt uncomfortable.
Especially the blood clouds outside and the smell of blood made Xu Yuan feel a little uncomfortable.
"There are a lot of things in the Iron-Blooded Camp, so I won't see you off. Xu Jinshi goes slowly." Lu Jiuzhang stood up and watched Xu Yuan leave the tent before sitting down again.
"The monster meat is a bit cold, why don't you roast it again?" Little Fatty Zhou Zheng said.
"If you want to bake it, bake it yourself. I'm full."
Lu Jiuzhang picked up the storage ring and checked the contents inside.
