Upon hearing this, the three people hurriedly kowtowed to Shao Yan with fists in their hands and said: "Common people, please see the emperor. Long live the emperor! Long live the emperor!"
"Three heroes, hurry up and forgive me." Shao Yan calmly helped them up one by one. According to Dongfang Yi, the three of them were originally three brothers. The eldest one with a tiger head was named Lu Jin; the second one was named Lu Yin. , its distinctive feature is that there are two protruding teeth on the side of the mouth, also known as Lu protruding teeth; the third brother has a long beard on his lower forehead, which is called Lu Cai. The three brothers live near the capital and hunt all year round. To make a living, although they are not good-looking, they all have unique skills. The eldest Lu Jin is known as the best archer in Shen Luo Jing. With the big cauldron, Lao San is as light as a swallow. As long as he wants to go, there is no place he cannot go. Even the heavily guarded palace can come and go freely.
Knowing that they had such great abilities, Shao Yan felt ecstatic in his heart. He had to admire Dongfang Yi's ability to recognize heroes. However, the names of these three brothers are indeed a bit strange, Lu Jin, Lu Yin, Lu Cai, hey, if there is another The fourth child’s name is Lu Bao, doesn’t it mean gold and silver treasures together?
Seeing Shao Yan shaking his head and giggling, Dongfang Yi also said that he was not satisfied with the three people he brought, so he quickly added: "Your Majesty, there were four brothers in the Lu family. The fourth brother, Lu Bao, unfortunately passed away two years ago. He was beaten to death by Guo Wei's men, so the three brothers were determined to avenge Lao Si. No, they heard that the emperor punished Guo Wei not long ago. The three brothers had always remembered the emperor's wisdom. This time they heard that the soldiers of Chu and Liang were approaching the border. According to the news, on the one hand, they wanted to take this opportunity to repay the emperor for his great kindness, and on the other hand, they wanted to do their best for the country. The old minister thought that the government was in a period of employment, so he took the initiative to bring them into the palace. Come and ask the emperor to punish you."
"How can I blame you for being so worried about the country and the people, my dear Dongfang?" Shao Yan nodded gratefully to him, then walked up to the three brothers and said with sincerity: "It's rare for you to be so broad-minded, I just like you. Lord Dongfang is right about such righteous men. The Donglin Kingdom today lacks talents like you. You are dedicated to serving the country today, which is really a great blessing to the country. On behalf of all the people in the world, I thank you." I said to the three of them. bowed deeply
When the three brothers saw this scene, they were so shocked that they didn't know what to do. Although the three of them didn't read much, they still understood this common sense. At that time, the emperor was the supreme god, and only others could ask the emperor for help. There is no reason for an emperor to bend down and bow to others. If this spreads out, he will not be punished for offending the power of God. At the least, his skin and flesh will suffer, and at the worst, his head will be lost. Thinking of this, the three of them hurriedly They threw themselves to the ground and said in unison: "The common people are frightened. Please, Your Majesty, please don't try to harm the common people."
"Hurry up, three righteous men." At this moment, Shao Yan didn't have the airs of an emperor at all. Deep in his heart, he just wanted to end this war as soon as possible. He grew up in a poor family and knew what the poor needed most. He I sincerely hope that the people of this country can live a peaceful life while he is in power, but God always fails to grant people's wishes.
Thinking of those ambitious invaders, Shao Yan's teeth chattered. You take your Yangguan Road, and I'll cross my single-plank bridge. We don't want to invade the river. I didn't want to be an enemy of your two countries. How could I have thought of you? You have bullied me again and again. Since you like fighting so much, I will accompany you to the end! After thinking about it, Shao Yan slammed the table and said: "Three brothers of the Lu family, listen to your orders."
The three brothers responded in unison: "Here"
"I now appoint you as generals to protect the country. Each of you will receive 10,000 soldiers. You will immediately rush to the front line without any mistakes."
"I have the order!" After knocking, the three of them were about to exit the imperial study room.
"Wait a minute" Shao Yan stopped them, then walked up to them and said seriously: "This time we are rushing to the rear to help, what you are facing is not an ordinary strong enemy, but a group of crazy butchers, each of these people kills without blinking an eye.
, Everywhere they go, they will not leave a single person alive, not even newborn babies. I say this because I hope you will remember that although the city cannot be lost, the lives of the people are more important. Not only that,
You must warn the soldiers below not to harass the people along the way. Anyone who violates this will be killed without mercy."
"General, I understand. Please rest assured, Your Majesty, as long as the three of us brothers are still alive, we will never let the thieves cross the thunder pool, let alone kill one of our Donglin people." The boss, Lu Jin, clasped his fists and said happily:
"Brother is right. If the city is alive and the people are alive, if the city dies, the people will die. Even if we use our last drop of blood, we still have to save the people in the city." Lu Yin and Lu Cai straightened up and said decisively.
Hearing their impassioned speeches, Shao Yan's nose became sour and he shed a few tears unknowingly. Until his back completely disappeared from sight, Shao Yan wiped away his tears with his sleeves and sighed deeply.
Seeing Shao Yan's worried look, Dongfang Yi came to his side and bowed: "Your Majesty, don't worry too much. As the saying goes, when the soldiers come, they will block the water and cover it with the earth. Although the Chu and Liang countries have the intention of destroying us, as long as we share the same hatred, veteran minister
I firmly believe that sooner or later, they will be deported.”
"I hope it's as you said." Shao Yan turned around and asked casually: "Master Dongfang, I am asking the Lu brothers to lead 30,000 troops to support the rear this time. What do you think is the chance of winning?" Shao Yan just said
On the spur of the moment, I made three people the generals of the country's protector. When I calmed down and thought about it carefully, I always felt that something was wrong. War is not a child's play, and you can't win it just by talking. Besides, the three brothers of the Lu family have never led troops before.
experience, I'm afraid that the situation will be in chaos without even being on the battlefield.
"This -" Dongfang Yi frowned and thought for a while, then said: "In my opinion, although the three brothers of the Lu family were not born as generals and have not received formal training, they have grown up in the mountains since they were young.
With so many years of hunting experience, both on-the-spot investigation and assistance capabilities are better than ordinary people. The rear of our Donglin Kingdom is mainly dominated by mountains and forests, and it is also the only place where Liang Jun attacks. We can just take advantage of this favorable terrain to speed up the hunting process.
The three brothers of the Lu family usually use the method of besieging prey, and give them a jar to catch turtles."
"Yes, the mountains are suitable for mountain warfare. The three brothers of the Lu family were originally hunters. Wouldn't they treat Jin Dingguo's troops as prey?" Shao Yan was overjoyed, and he admired Dongfang Yi even more in his heart. He felt ashamed.
He touched his forehead and said: "Why didn't I think of such a simple truth? Dongfang Aiqing is truly a god."
Dongfang Yi shook his head indifferently, "Your Majesty has given me a reward. How can I be a god? These are just some small tricks."
"My dear Dongfang, don't be so modest. From now on, you will be Zhuge Liang by my side." Shao Yan said with a smile.
"Zhuge Liang?" Dongfang Yi said blankly: "May I ask Your Majesty, who is Zhuge Liang? Have you seen him before?"
Seeing Dongfang Yi's face full of surprise, Shao Yan suddenly remembered that this was a world outside history. Of course, people in this era would not know the historical figures. "To put it simply, he is a military advisor. He not only makes suggestions for the emperor, but also goes to court."
Understand astronomy and geography"
"So that's it. From this point of view, this person's IQ must be quite high. How can an old minister judge him?" Dongfang Yi shook his head in shame and asked curiously: "Since the emperor knows this person, why doesn't he accept him?"
For now, if he is willing to help the emperor, why should we, Donglin, fear the invasion of powerful enemies?"
"That's right." Shao Yan tried his best to hide his smile and sighed softly: "It would be great if Zhuge Liang could travel here with me. With you two by my side, there is no need to worry about being unable to deal with these two tiger and wolf troops.
Woolen cloth?"
"Your Majesty, please forgive me for my ignorance. I have only heard of wearing clothes and shoes, but I have never heard of time travel. Could it be that they are also worn on the body?"
"This -" Faced with such a difficult question raised by Dongfang Yi, Shao Yan really couldn't answer it for a while. At this time, he heard Xiao Yingying's angry scolding outside the imperial study room, and there seemed to be someone beside him.
A palace maid was sobbing. It sounded like she had made some mistake and was being taught a lesson by her master.
"You girl, did you say this? If you still dare to say nonsense, I will tear your mouth apart."
"I dare not say nonsense. Concubine Yun asked me to give this bowl of tonic soup to you."
"You also said that there is saffron in this medicine. Everyone knows that pregnant women will have abortions if they drink it. Sister Yun Fei treats me like a sister, how could you let you do such a thing? I think it must be you, this girl.
You deliberately instigate the relationship between our sisters. Humph, I didn’t expect that there would be a vicious girl like you in this palace. I will beat you to death today.”
