Although Guo Zhen didn't understand why His Majesty gave him such a strange order, he had to carry it out.

Therefore, when Lu Xiaoxian asked Guo Zhen to pretend to be an envoy of the imperial court, he had no choice but to acquiesce.

"Why don't envoys make envoys? Mr. Lu, please stop making fun of me!" Guo Zhen said helplessly.

"Master Guo!" Lu Xiaoxian suddenly became serious, "Remember, you are now an envoy of the imperial court. Not only must you believe that you are an envoy in your heart, but you must also let others believe it. This is not a joke, but

It is a major matter related to the safety of the imperial court. If outsiders get the slightest clue, all the plans I have worked so hard to make will be ruined! Remember, remember!"

Guo Zhen was stunned.

Seeing Lu Xiaoxian being so solemn, Guo Zhen nodded: "Don't worry, Mr. Lu, I understand the importance and will not miss your important event!"

"That's right! Those who do big things don't stick to trivial matters!" Lu Xiaoxian's face broke into a smile again, "I know that the famous Guo Daxia will definitely not care about such small things!"

Such a big thing as pretending to be an envoy of the imperial court turned into "a trivial matter" in Lu Xiaoxian's words. What else could Guo Zhen say?

"Master Lu, let's talk after we go in!" Guo Zhen turned sideways and asked Lu Xiaoxian to come in.

Lu Xiaoxian nodded and waved to the strong slaves behind him, "Let's go! Come in with me!"

In the past, Emperor Taizong selected Taiyuan's warriors from Longqi to form the Seventh Battalion of Beiya, and the Yulin Army evolved from these seven battalions. Family background was the most important factor in the choice of soldiers in the inner palace, and everyone from top to bottom of the Yulin Army was qualified.

Xun Jiu, descendant of the official clan. As His Majesty's personal bodyguard, the Yulin Army has the best equipment among the Sixteen Guards and has always looked down upon the other guards.

The fifty people brought by Chen Xuanli were only one in a hundred. Although they were under the scorching sun, their eyes were still as cold as frost and snow.

Arriving at a piece of flat land, Lu Xiaoxian nodded, "Yes, this is it!"

Several strong slaves who came with Lu Xiaoxian skillfully set up the tables and chairs they brought, and then placed tea soup, fruits and snacks on the tables.

Lu Xiaoxian said to several strong slaves, "Go back and let them come over!"

The strong slave agreed and ran quickly in the direction from which he came.

Lu Xiaoxian pointed to the placed chair and said to Guo Zhen, "Master Guo, please sit down!"

Guo Zhen was not polite either, he was very irritated.

He sat down on the chair, picked up a piece of snack and put it in his mouth, chewing it while sighing, "It's a blessing to follow Mr. Lu out!"

Lu Xiaoxian also sat down, glanced at Guo Zhen, and said with a pun, "It's not only a blessing for the mouth, but also a blessing for the eyes, isn't it?"

After hearing Lu Xiaoxian's words, Guo Zhen leaned his head over and whispered, "Mr. Lu, this is enough! After all, they are also His Majesty's personal soldiers, so they must save some face. These days, Colonel Chen has been under pressure.

I'm still here, otherwise they might skin me alive and take my heart out!"

Guo Zhen was not being alarmist, Lu Xiaoxian's joke was indeed a bit too big.

On the eighth day of May, not far from Luoyang, Lu Xiaoxian ordered the escort team to stop and rest. He came to the place where the soldiers of the Yulin Army were resting, and ordered Chen Xuanli to set up a competition for Sergeant Yulin and the strong slaves he had brought.

Fighting for fun.

Lu Xiaoxian's request was a great insult to the Yulin Army. How could Chen Xuanli obey it?

You don’t listen to me, do you?

Lu Xiaoxian didn't give Chen Xuanli any room to turn around, and said firmly, "Then you go back and tell His Majesty for me that I don't need you here anymore!"

After hearing what Lu Xiaoxian said, Chen Xuanli was immediately dumbfounded.

"If anything goes wrong with Lu Xiaoxian, please raise your head and see me!" Wu Zetian's order was still in his ears. How could Chen Xuanli go back?

Seeing that the two of them were frozen in place, Guo Zhen managed to smooth things over in time. He pulled Chen Xuanli aside and whispered, "Young Master Lu is just having fun for a while, so don't take it too seriously. If he really forces you to go back, what will Colonel Chen explain to His Majesty?"

Woolen cloth?"

In desperation, Chen Xuanli could only humbly agree to Lu Xiaoxian's request.

"Teach them a lesson, as long as they don't kill them!" Chen Xuanli viciously ordered the Yulin soldiers who went out to fight.

Whether it was unbearable or not, Sergeant Yulin was all holding a ball of fire in his heart. They had received formal training in the army, and they fought for honor. They showed no mercy to the strong slaves who challenged them in the ring, and beat them.

They cried like ghosts and howled like wolves. Not only did they win a complete victory, but they also vented their anger.

I thought Lu Xiaoxian would be disgraced, but instead he acted like a normal person and just said to Zhang Meng lightly, "Skills are inferior to others, courage is inferior to others, defeat is defeat, nothing to say!"

Lu Xiaoxian had nothing to say, but Zhang Meng couldn't hold on to his face anymore. He pointed at the strong slaves with bruises and swollen faces.

An angry roar: "A bunch of bear bags, they are not allowed to eat today!"

Chen Xuanli thought that this farce was over, but he never thought that it was just the beginning of a nightmare. Lu Xiaoxian was like a dog-skin plaster that stuck to him, and whenever he took a break or set up camp, he would set up a competition.

I agreed the first time, so why would I refuse the second or third time?

Chen Xuanli felt like he was on a pirate ship with no chance to get off again.

The escort team stopped and went, not in a hurry. Every day when they came down, Sergeant Yulin would have five or six fights with the strong slaves.

The indignant Yulin soldiers originally fought for honor, but as the number of competitions continued to increase, they gradually got used to it and no longer used their full strength.

It's different for those strong slaves. The result of the competition is related to whether they will have food for the next meal.

People are like iron rice and steel. They will feel hungry if they don't eat a meal. They have a deep understanding of hunger. In order to have a full stomach, these strong slaves try their best and will not stop attacking as long as they still have breath.

The thing is so amazing, two groups that were not on the same level at first have become evenly matched due to the decline of each other.

Occasionally, if a strong slave wins, Lu Xiaoxian will generously reward five kilograms of cooked beef and a jar of good wine.

Such a reward is nothing to the Yulin soldiers, but it is extremely tempting to these strong slaves.

The power of role models is infinite. For beef and fine wine, these strong slaves started to fight for their lives against Yulin soldiers as soon as they entered the ring.

Most of the Yulin soldiers were the sons of officials. They had already felt that they had lost their value by competing with these slaves. Now that they have become a bargaining chip for others to win food and wine, they feel that it is even more boring. There is no fighting spirit left.

After such a struggle, after only three days, many Yulin soldiers were defeated.

Chen Xuanli couldn't keep it on his face. This was too embarrassing, not to mention that it was His Majesty's people who were being disgraced. He issued a death order, and those who failed to make every effort to retreat would be subject to military law.

He could not vent his anger. Without his energy, Sergeant Yu Lin could not have the fighting spirit. Despite Chen Xuanli's strict supervision, he was still completely defeated. On the contrary, the morale of the strong slaves was high. Looking at their eyes, let alone their

In front of them is a group of Yulin soldiers. Even if they are a group of tigers and leopards, they will not be afraid.

Guo Zhen told Lu Xiaoxian to stop, just to remind him to save some face for His Majesty's Yulin soldiers.
