When Lijun Qingqi arrived at Taiming City for the second time in a year, the city's attitude was completely different from the previous time.
The gray city wall is no longer like the skin of a giant beast, and Lu Dongfeng is no longer a lonely figure outside the city gate. Instead, there are the dark masses of people inside and outside the city wall, and the solemn and solemn sight of three thousand black-armored troops neatly lined up on both sides of the official road.
solemn.
Under such a background, the figure standing above the officialdom is not so conspicuous. He has a brocade hat and mink fur, with his sleeves folded up. It is General Taiming, Lu Dongfeng. At this moment, he is slightly raising his head and squinting his eyes.
Looking at the cavalry running in the distance, he praised softly, "It is becoming more and more powerful."
The person standing next to him was wearing a general's armor but not wearing a helmet. His face was sallow and his beard was sparse. He looked listless, but his voice was extremely deep. It was Wang Ming. "The prefect returned to Licheng this time.
All parties mobilized elites to make up the 5,000 Lijun Qingqi. It is said that the worst among them will be second-level warriors. If all these 5,000 people are dispersed, another force of 10,000 or even 15,000 people can be formed.
A thousand men in black armor is not impossible, but the current momentum of five thousand cavalry is still far behind."
Lu Dongfeng remained unwavering, "If it were said in the past, although what you said may be suspected of being overstepped, it is not wrong in the end. But if it is said today, it is a big mistake."
"What's wrong?" Wang Ming frowned and looked at Lu Dongfeng, but only saw the other person's indifferent profile, "With the authority of the Grand Administrator now, who dares to have other thoughts? There is no need for such a separation.
County Qingqi, hold on, it's a waste to tie so many elite soldiers to the shore of Li city. It's better to invest in southern Xinjiang. If we have an extra black-armored army..."
"Okay," Lu Dongfeng took his hands out of his sleeves. He seemed to feel a little cold. He hesitated for a while but did not put his hands back into his sleeves. Instead, he clasped his hands together and rubbed them. "Sooner or later, your mouth will regenerate."
If something happens, the prefect will confront you later, so just shut up."
When Wang Ming heard this, he really pursed his lips and stopped talking.
Lu Dongfeng turned his head slightly and glanced sideways at Wang Ming. He lowered his voice and said, "Don't think that what I said before was just a lie. It's more difficult for cavalry to form a formation than for infantry. It's easy to form a formation if there are only a hundred people among a thousand cavalry."
They can be called elites, but if these thousand men dismount, without much training, they will immediately become powerful soldiers in a thousand-man army. If they meet head-on, they only need to be pulled by a big monk, and the same thousand-man cavalry may be defeated.
, but why do all the counties and armies in Central Continent still spend so much effort building up cavalry?”
"Because the cavalry is faster! The situation on the battlefield is changing rapidly. When the two sides are playing chess, the outcome is often just a matter of thoughts." Lu Dongfeng turned back to look at the approaching Lijun Qingqi in the distance, and couldn't help but speak three minutes faster.
, "If you hold a chess piece in your hand that can be one step ahead of others, in the past nine hundred years, it may only mean that power is stable, or a vacancy can be filled in time, but now it is not that simple. In this game,
In a multi-party game destined to be long-lasting, it may be the result of taking the lead step by step."...??m
"What's more, this Lijun Qingqi is not an ordinary elite, but the elite of the elite who can form a formation of five thousand people." He stared at the young man wearing blood armor among the cavalry in the distant smoke and dust.
"As long as this cavalry is not disabled at once, after experiencing the constant baptism of war, it will definitely become a force that can affect the battlefields of the world..."
Wang Ming looked up at the cavalry in the distance, his lips moved slightly, and his voice was directly transmitted to Lu Dongfeng's ears, "The general's words are too exaggerated, but to say that they are the best of the best can barely be considered. If they are
He can also control the loss of the formation to the level of the black armored army, and then..." He looked at the cavalry mounts, and couldn't help but narrowed his eyes like Lu Dongfeng, "and then the power of those demon blood horses
If you blend in, that would be a bit interesting..."
Lu Dongfeng didn't bother to reply this time. He just stood there rubbing his hands, waiting for the cavalry to approach in the distance.
In the time it took to drink tea, the cavalry who were still very far away had already approached. They slowly slowed down and finally reached the three thousand black-armored troops. Then they heard a neat "dong" sound and three thousand pairs of fists.
The sheath hits the breastplate!
"Meet the prefect!!"
The sound of iron-blooded salutes spread from all directions, and the people who were originally guarding inside and outside Taiming City knelt on the ground in silence one by one, lowering their heads in submission. In the silence, the only sound was the sound of the hoofbeats of five thousand Lijun Qingqi.
, even if it has slowed down, it is still like beating a drum.
Lijun Qingqi slowly stopped, only the young man wearing blood armor at the head was still walking. He drove the horse to a few feet in front of Lu Dongfeng and Wang Ming, turned over and dismounted, took a few steps forward, and stretched out his hand to salute Lu Dongfeng.
Dongfeng helped him up, pushed the visor away with a click with his other hand, and smiled at Wang Ming, "General Wang Bi, I thought you were going to hide somewhere and not come to see me."
Wang Ming made a military salute and said, "The last general will not dare."
Luo Chuan reached out and shook Lu Dongfeng's hand and said, "General Lu, the weather is not cold yet, but your hands are a bit cold."
Lu Dongfeng smiled and said, "Thank you for your trouble, Lord Governor. I have had this problem for many years. It doesn't matter." He stepped aside to open the way, raised his hand and said, "Master Governor, please come into the city."
Luochuan nodded, turned around and made a gesture, and the Lijun Qingqi split into two. The leading group of more than a hundred Qingqi elites, including Wangchuan Swordsman and Luo Changgong, followed Luo Chuan, and the other large groups of cavalry followed.
Choose a place to camp outside the city.
Luo Chuan did not pay too much attention to the actions of the people behind him, but turned around without getting on his horse. He just led the horse and followed Lu Dongfeng towards the city. "Did Fairy Lingjing of Cangyan Sword Sect arrive at Taipei first?"
bright?"
Lu Dongfeng glanced at Wang Ming, then stretched out his hand to push. The latter then moved his eyes away from the woman in blue robe and the child in red robe led by Wangchuan Jianxiu on horseback, "No."
"Oh," Luo Chuan put it down as soon as he thought about it.
On the other side, Wang Ming glanced at Lu Dongfeng and then said, "But there is a real person from Tingfeng Pavilion who arrived at Taiming City first."
"Huh?" Luo Chuan asked in surprise, "Which real person from Tingfeng Pavilion is here? Are you coming to Taiming to see General Lu?"
Wang Ming shook his head, "The person who came here holds the seal of the county magistrate, calls himself Bo'an, and says he wants to wait for the prefect in Taiming."
"Wait for me?" Luo Chuan thought for a while and asked, "Where is this real person now?"
This time it was Lu Dongfeng who answered, "We checked the seal he held and found that it was indeed owned by Master Zhong, so we placed him in the Lu Mansion. It only took a few days."
"Just go and see him later," Luo Chuan asked Lu Dongfeng, "Why don't you see Tieshan today?"
Lu Dongfeng did not answer, but Wang Ming said, "Tieshan is on duty today and led his troops south into the mountain."
When Luo Chuan heard this, his eyes widened suddenly, "Enter the mountain?!"
