March 30th, the nineteenth year of Jiayou's reign.
Xiong Taidou led the army and retreated to the west.
Countless rebels have built a sizable city wall on the valley road leading to Anping Prefecture. Xiong Taidou led his army and retreated behind the city wall to reorganize the food, grass and baggage.
After Xiong Taidou withdrew his troops, less than an hour later, horns sounded, war drums burst, and smoke and dust rose into the sky on the east side of Anping Pass. An army several times larger than Wang Pu's anti-rebellion army arrived outside Anping Pass in a mighty manner.
.
Wang Pu is dead.
The commander of the newly reinforced army to quell the rebellion is his cousin Wang?
Following the orders of the emperor and the general, Lu and Wang completed the handover.
During the handover, Wang?'s attitude towards Lu Qian was extremely cold, and even the look he looked at Lu Qian was full of hostility.
"Master Wang, it seems that this is the first time we have met?" Lu Qian didn't understand where Wang Pu's hostility came from. Could it be that he knew that Wang Pu's death was related to him? This makes no sense!
Wang? didn't say anything, but looked up and down at Lu Qian seriously.
After Wang Pu died in the battle, Lu Qian actually took over the rebellion force at Anping Pass and repelled the attacks of the rebels in Anping Prefecture one after another.
This made all the important ministers of the cultural and educational families below Zhu Chong feel strongly uneasy.
They deeply doubted whether Wang Pu's death was related to Lu Qian.
They were even more worried about whether Lu Qian knew part of the truth about Anping Prefecture during the period when he was in charge of the anti-rebellion army.
"How did Wang Pu die?" After being silent for a long time, Wang Pu asked Lu Qian very politely.
"Assassinated by a rebel master." Lu Qian gave the perfect standard answer.
"Why were you not killed?" Wang? Stared at Lu Qian and asked him directly why Wang Pu died, but Lu Qian was unscathed after taking over the quelling army.
"Maybe I'm more capable than him?" Lu Qian looked at Wang Qian without showing any weakness: "Some people enjoy high positions, but they are actually useless. Why does Mr. Wang think that if Wang Pu was assassinated, I will definitely make the same mistake again?
?”
Wang? looked at Lu Qian expressionlessly. After a long time, he smiled brightly: "That's right, Mr. Tianyang is indeed young and promising. No wonder the emperor is thinking about you so much and hurriedly transferred you back to Haojing to accompany you.
The king is here with you."
Shaking his head, Wang? sighed: "There are sneaks in Haojing again, making a lot of noise, so Your Majesty is thinking about Duke Tianyang. When Duke Tianyang goes back, you must be diligent and careful. If you can't say it, you can be crowned king."
, where’s ‘King’?”
Lu Qian looked at Wang with a smile.
Wang? This is really a curse word.
He clearly said that Lu Qian was granted the title of Duke Tianyang just because he flattered the emperor, helped the emperor catch ghosts and exorcise evil spirits, and made great contributions. This time Lu Qian was transferred back to Haojing, and he might be able to arrest more
With a few tricks, the title can be promoted to another level.
"Lord Wang, please be careful too. It would be bad if I received your obituary notice as soon as I returned to Haojing." Lu Qian spoke with the same sinister tone: "Look, your name is Wang?'s?, and
The obituary’s obituary looks so similar!”
Wang?'s face suddenly darkened.
Lu Qian's words were so unlucky that Wang Xi wanted to spit on Lu Qian's face.
Seeing Wang?'s expression become so ugly, Lu Qian felt inexplicably happy. He laughed loudly and said: "Master Wang, you must be careful. Our enemies are not just the rebellious democratic forces west of Anping Pass.
"
"To the east of Anping Pass, there are also rioters. They are not many in number, but they are extremely difficult to deal with. You must be careful!"
Lu Qian hugged Wang Chao, then turned around and left.
With an order, Lu Qian, Lu Jun, and Lu Yi, together with the army of supervisors, drove out of Anping Pass in a mighty manner and ran straight towards Haojing.
Wang? Together with the generals he brought, stood on the wall of Anping Guandong City, watching Lu Qian's army retreat with a complicated expression.
"Beat the drums, gather the generals, let's all discuss how to pacify Anping Prefecture as soon as possible." Wang? gave an order loudly: "In addition, where are the young masters of the Bai Chang Kong Mountain Chief? Be respectful and ask them to serve as military advisors.
As a general, he participated in military discussions."
Wang? He muttered in a low voice with envy and jealousy: "The living saint? This old ghost Bai Changkong... has taken advantage of nine of his grandsons!"
Thinking of Bai Changkong's current reputation in Haojing City.
Think again about Bai Changkong's distant niece, who was directly canonized as a noble concubine by the emperor!
Especially the news coming from the palace, according to the usual practice, relatives like Bai Changkong are to be given a title. It is said that Concubine Bai was so charming that she was so enchanting that she coaxed the emperor to give Bai Changkong's family the title of "Gong"?
Zhu Song, who originally harbored a grudge against Bai Changkong and wanted to kill Bai Changkong and his nine sons, was also scolded by Zhu Chong.
At present, Bai Changkong seems to be the most popular cultural and educational brand. How many people are busy trying to cling to it?
Even Wang? has received instructions from the Wang family, asking him to cultivate the nine Bai Langs well, and on the premise of ensuring their safety, let them share more military merits, so as to make good friends with Bai Changkong!
"Military merits, military merits, there are only so many military merits. We gave them nine, how many do we have left?" Next to Wang?, a Wang family general complained in a low voice.
Wang? glanced at him sideways and shook his head: "How stupid are you? Shouldn't we report this military merit to the higher authorities? Just report more. We killed 100,000 rebels in one battle, but you won't report one million to them.
What? A bunch of stupid people, how can they be like our Wang family?"
Lu Qian's army galloped along the road for a long time.
When he was hundreds of miles away from Anping Pass, Lu Qiance rode up a hill and looked back in the direction of Anping Pass.
"Tsk, two brothers, you lead the army back to Haojing." Lu Qian looked at Lu Jun and Lu Yi with a cold face and ordered: "Go slowly and delay for a while. I will stay at Anping Pass for a few more days, and I must not be able to do it."
Let Taidou Xiong succeed so easily."
Lu Jun and Lu Yi were moved when they heard this, and nodded at the same time: "Brother Chen, don't worry, we must not let him take all the credit. But, you are alone, I'm afraid..."
Lu Qian smiled and shook his head. He was not alone: "It doesn't matter. It's more convenient for me to be alone outside. I..."
Before he finished speaking, Lu Qian suddenly raised his head and looked due south.
Directly in the south, a man about ten feet tall, with a sinewy face, brow-shaped eyebrows and big eyes, and bronze muscles on his exposed chest that looked like steel, was riding a strange-looking mount and carrying a very tall horse.
The large animal skin package was speeding towards this side along the galloping road.
The mount was completely black and shaped like a red deer. Instead of coral-slit antlers on its forehead, there were two straight three-foot sharp horns, which were pitch black and shiny, like two short spears growing on its head.
Compared to Lu Qian's mount, Bloodhoof Wuzui, this weird-looking mount is two times larger in stature.
Especially its running speed was astonishing. When Lu Qian saw the big man standing on the hill, he was still nearly a hundred miles away, but in just a few breaths, the mount had already galloped several miles away.
Lu Qian, Lu Jun, and Lu Yi felt a wave of excitement at their speed. Could it be that they could easily run hundreds of thousands of miles in a day?
This is definitely a strange beast mount whose alien bloodline has not dissipated. It is completely incomparable to Dayin's current mounts such as Bloodhoof Wuzui, Qingyunliu, and Canglang.
The big man came so fast that the light cavalry of the Yulin Army at the rear had no time to react. They only felt their eyes blurred as the big man rode his mount through the army and arrived at the foot of the hill.
"who!"
It was only then that the Canglang Cavalry under Lu Jun and Lu Yi shouted in unison, grabbed their long bows, mounted arrows, and surrounded the big man from all directions.
"I am a compassionate Buddha, and I have no ill intentions, monk." The big man touched his bare scalp and jumped off his mount.
There was a "boom", and I don't know whether it was the weight of the big man or the too heavy thing in the animal skin package in his hand. When he landed, there was a huge muffled sound, the ground trembled slightly, and hundreds of animals around him
The wolf growled extremely uneasily.
Lu Qian raised his eyebrows.
‘My Buddha is compassionate’?
Is this bald man a Buddhist?
Is such a burly man a disciple of the Mahavajra Temple?
"Don't be rude to Master, put down your weapons." Lu Qian waved his hand, raised his hands to the monk and said with a smile, "Dare you ask Master?"
"Monk Kongkong is just an ordinary monk." Monk Kongkong carried the animal skin package and strode up the hill. Standing on the ground, Monk Kongkong was more than three feet taller than Monk Kongkong's exotic mount 'Tick-Tick-Tick'.
, slowly followed behind him.
"The monk was meditating in the mountains. Suddenly, on a whim, I felt that the donor and you, the monk, are destined. Therefore, I specially sent some items to the donor to help the donor succeed!"
Monk Kongkong shouted loudly, his energy was particularly strong, and tens of thousands of soldiers from far and near could hear clearly.
Many generals and commanders under Lu Qian, especially those affiliated with the Palace Guards, all looked at Lu Qian with wide-eyed expressions of disbelief. They gave gifts to the hero in the process to help the hero achieve success. This is not what those romance novels in the market say.
The bridge section?
Love, is there really such a thing?
Monk Kongkong walked up to Lu Qian and unwrapped the animal skin, revealing a set of black full-body armor, an equally black Zhangba long spear, and a bow with extremely thick arms and a string as thick as a little finger.
A long bow seven feet long.
"I am Kong Kong. According to your seniority, the three of you have to call me uncle." Monk Kongkong lowered his voice: "According to the decree of the presiding officer, I have sent this set of armored soldiers to Lu Qian to facilitate your actions and work for our sect."
"Well, the host has said that the little thief Tu Tu, Shi Evil, will accept you directly into the inner gate."
Monk Kongkong touched his bare head and continued: "The abbot has promised you the four Red Lotus Crossing Edans. As soon as you refine them, someone will deliver them directly to you. The abbot said, don't embarrass Mr. Xiong Taidou."
."
"Oh, by the way, below the word "Shi" is the word "Fharma". Monk Kongkong smiled and looked at Lu Qian: "The host and several elders thought about it for a long time and gave you an excellent Dharma title."
Lu Qian's heart skipped a beat, and an inexplicable uneasy throbbing hit his heart.
"May I ask Master Kongkong's uncle, what is his dharma name?"
Kongkong smiled brightly: "Fahai...the power of Fahai is boundless and as vast as the sea, which shows the host's ardent hope for you."
Lu Qian's smile was completely frozen, and his eyes were staring straight into the sky.
In his sleeve, the green snake moved slightly, and Lu Qian suddenly had the urge to throw the green snake thousands of miles away.
