Volume Four, Three Southern Counties, Chapter 405, The Old General Dies
After saying these words, the old general Xuan Wuyun left.
On this day, he went to the Demon Clan's camp and invited the strong man from the Demon Clan to fight.
Finally there was silence.
Later generations only know that the second-grade peak demon master of the demon clan who was stationed in the barracks never appeared again.
Everyone speculated that the old general Xuan Wuyun and the second-grade peak demon warrior died together!
…
In Jiangshui County, the situation has changed.
I thought that with the old general Xuan Wuyun in charge, the demon clan's attack would slow down.
But I never thought that the old general Xuan Wuyun would leave.
The entire Jiangshui County seemed to be in the hands of the deputy general Zuo Dao, but everyone still felt that they were leaderless.
The four school lieutenants who originally had different intentions were killed by the old general Xuan Wuyun, but since the old general Xuan Wuyun left, there are more and more ambitious people.
They admired the old general Xuan Wuyun, but they were a little dissatisfied with Zuo Dao, who had assumed the post of temporary general.
"Master Lu!"
Outside the camp, stood a man with a scar on his face.
The man laughed heartily, "I met Mr. Lu once before at the old general's place, but we didn't talk in detail. This time I came to see Mr. Lu because I wanted to have a close relationship with him."
"I have five hundred sets of armor and one thousand standard long knives in my hands. They are of good quality and can be given to Mr. Lu!"
Seeing the other party's fawning appearance, Lu Jiuzhang had already guessed what he wanted to do.
"I can accept the things, but what you want me to do is probably not going to work." Lu Jiuzhang said directly.
"I haven't said anything yet. Does Mr. Lu know what I want?"
The other party laughed.
"What you are asking for is for me to be on your side and help you win the position of general." Lu Jiuzhang said, "You think that since I am the new emperor's junior brother and Master Xu's disciple, my
The power of speech is very important.”
"But that's not the case. I am just a small Marquis of Ten Thousand Households. The opinions of the new emperor are not controlled by me."
"Secondly, I don't want to go to Xintei for this matter!"
The other party came here specifically because of Lu Jiuzhang's connections.
"Master Lu, you don't need to say it clearly."
The lieutenant general was a little embarrassed.
"If I don't make it clear, you may think that I want too much, and the lion is opening my mouth to deliberately make things difficult for you." Lu Jiuzhang said, "I know you want to take a step closer. After serving as deputy general for so many years, you are not willing to accept it.
."
"But the distance between you and the general is still too far. The new emperor should either transfer a new general from elsewhere, or let Zuo Dao serve as the general!"
"You have little hope!"
The deputy general smiled bitterly and said, "So, I don't have to ask Mr. Lu for this."
"Have you ever thought that the position of general is not a good thing. If the defense of the city is successful, then it is okay, but what if the defense of the city fails?"
Lu Jiuzhang asked.
"Let's talk about what happens after failure. If I really become a general, someone in the court will naturally win over me and help me." The deputy general vowed, "After all, as long as you get the position of general, you will get far more than you can imagine!"
Lu Jiuzhang listened silently and pulled out the Frost Sky Blade, "I'll give you two choices, either defend the city honestly and obey Zuo Dao's orders, or die by my sword today."
"Although you are at the peak of the fourth level of martial arts, you are still no match for me!"
"Lu Jiuzhang, you don't know how to praise me!"
The lieutenant was angry.
"If you say one more word, I will kill you today! You should know my way of doing things!" Lu Jiuzhang said coldly.
The deputy general's face darkened and he walked towards his station.
It’s so disrespectful!
It was obviously a matter of mutual benefit, but he refused directly.
This was his idea, and for Lu Jiuzhang, it was not a good thing that Jiangshui County had so many campers after the monster troops pressed into the territory and the old general Xuan Wuyun left.
After the deputy general left, Lu Jiuzhang looked at Bai Xiaosu beside him and said, "Let Xuanji and the young prince Zhou Zheng come to my camp."
"good!"
Bai Xiaosu nodded and went to find it.
After tea time, Zhou Zheng appeared in the camp.
But the mystery is nowhere to be seen.
"The deputy battalion commander Xuanji was stopped. The four executed lieutenants and nephews were causing trouble near Xuanji's camp and asked him to give an explanation."
Bai Xiaosu said.
"Okay, you don't have to worry about it. I'll handle this matter." Lu Jiuzhang nodded and chatted with Zhou Zheng first, "In the past two days, let the soldiers under me get ready."
"What are you preparing for? Do you want to fight against the demon clan? But now is not a good time. The old general Xuan Wuyun is gone and there is no one in charge." The little fat man Zhou Zheng also noticed something unusual.
"Get ready to leave. In my opinion, Jiangshui County cannot be defended any longer." Lu Jiuzhang said, "Be prepared on both sides. On the one hand, you will fight the monster soldiers, and on the other hand, prepare to retreat. Don't get too frizzy when the time comes."
"clear!"
Fatty Zhou Zheng nodded.
The current situation in Jiangshui County is too chaotic, but anyone with a discerning eye can see at a glance that it cannot be defended.
Only retreat!
…
"Xuanji, your grandfather killed so many brothers, and now before leaving, he killed my second uncle again. How to settle the score?"
"That's right, your grandfather ran away on his own, and now you have to pay the debt!"
"I have admired the old general all my life, but I never expected that such a scandal would happen before he died. Your Xuan family is ashamed of the new emperor, the great Zhou Dynasty, and our brothers who have followed us for so many years!"
"..."
A group of people blamed the mystery.
But Xuanji, who was in the middle of the crowd, said nothing and wiped the long knife in his hand.
"Boy, do you think you can get away without saying a word? Let me tell you, we are here to ask for an explanation today."
"If you don't give me an explanation, we will send you to see your grandfather today!"
"Yes, we must give an explanation to the dead!"
"..."
These people were obsessed with the mystery and talked about it, each one louder than the other.
"rub!"
After Lu Jiuzhang arrived, he stuck the Frost Sky Blade in his hand on the ground, and then Lu Jiuzhang put his hands on the handle of the knife, "If you want an explanation, you can come to me!"
"Lu Jiuzhang, why are you pretending to be a big-tailed wolf? Xuan Wuyun caused such a big mess, even if he doesn't die, the new emperor will punish him heavily!"
"That's right, he killed so many people, what's wrong with us asking for an explanation?"
"You can control the Iron Blood Camp, but can you control us?"
"..."
These people are not under Lu Jiuzhang's control, so there is no pressure to speak.
He directly accused Lu Jiuzhang.
"Bang!"
Lu Jiuzhang slashed out with his sword and beheaded one person instantly.
Blood splattered everywhere, and the people around him were more or less stained with scarlet blood.
"If you have any trouble, come to me to settle the score!" Lu Jiuzhang said slowly, "No matter what kind of trouble, I will bear it alone!"
"The soldiers of the Iron Blood Battalion obey your orders. From today on, any outsiders who dare to step into the tents of the Iron Blood Battalion to cause trouble will be killed without mercy!" This chapter has been completed!
