The king of Qi, Lu Mingzhou, was leading his men to kill everyone.
Lu Mingzhou is Lu Huaguang's eldest son, who was named King of Qi and will also be the future prince.
There are many generals around him who are good at fighting.
He leads an elite army that has been trained by the Lu family for many years and has very strong combat effectiveness.
Lu's army had just faced the army of Liu Wentong, the governor of Zhuozhou, and the latter was quickly defeated.
What followed was a one-sided massacre.
At this moment, a fast horse suddenly rushed in front of Lu Mingzhou and reported loudly: "Your Highness, King Qi, King Ming sent someone to deliver the message. King Ming's palace was attacked by the imperial army. Please come back quickly for help."
King Qi was stunned: "The Ming Dynasty is in the palace, and the surrounding counties and cities have been occupied by my Lu family. How could the Tang army appear? Could it be that the Tang army came from the sky?"
The knight said: "Your Highness did not know something. At that time, many Kongming lanterns suddenly appeared in the sky. Those Kongming lanterns then fell one by one. The palace of King Ming made a rumbling sound, and the earth shook and the mountains shook. I am afraid it was a punishment from God."
Snapped.
Lu Mingzhou slapped the knight fiercely and said angrily: "What kind of punishment, bullshit, huh, this is explosives invented by Du He, my great enemy of the Lu family."
Then, Lu Mingzhou waved his hand fiercely: "Ming Jin, withdraw your troops!"
Ding ding ding.
Ding ding ding.
A harsh golden sound sounded.
The Lu army, which was actively fighting, was stunned for a moment, and then retreated like a tide.
…
Zhuozhou Army Camp.
Seeing the retreat of Lu's army, the governor of Zhuozhou excitedly ran to Liu Wentong, the governor of Zhuozhou, and said, "Sir, I'm so happy, so happy. The Lu's army has retreated. I've already thought about the good news. The Zhuozhou army has five thousand people.
The Lu family's five thousand elite soldiers fought to the death under the leadership of Sir. The Lu family's army was defeated and retreated."
Nagashi's idea is correct.
Since the Lu family's rebellion, the Lu family's army has been invincible and invincible in Youzhou.
The Tang army was several times larger than the Lu army, but it was retreating steadily and losing cities one after another.
Now, the Zhuozhou army was defeated one by one, but not all of them were killed. It was indeed a great victory.
Unexpectedly, when Liu Wentong, the governor of Zhuozhou, heard this, he was not happy at all, but was worried.
Zhuo Governor Shi asked: "Sir, you don't seem to be very happy?"
Liu Wentong asked with a gloomy face: "Do you know why Lu Mingzhou suddenly withdrew his troops?"
"this……"
Liu Wentong himself gave the answer: "Because something happened to the Lu family's lair, and he wanted to come back for help. In other words, King Shu and Prince Consort Du have succeeded."
"This... is incredible. Prince Consort Du and King Shu only have a hundred people. The Lu family's lair is heavily guarded. How did they do it?"
"It's meaningless to say this now. Have you ever thought about it, once Lu Mingzhou leads the army back to the Lu family's home, what will be waiting for King Shu and Prince Consort Du? They will definitely die... In that case, we will not be able to save our heads.
." After Liu Wentong finished speaking, he couldn't help but add in a low voice, "These two lunatics."
Chang Shi trembled with fright: "Sir, what should we do?"
"It's death anyway!"
"Fight to the death!"
Liu Wentong made a difficult decision.
"Fight to the death!"
"The governor has an order, fight to the death!"
"No one is allowed to retreat!"
"Whoever retreats will die!"
"Fight to the death!"
The messenger shouted loudly.
Then, everyone learned that Prince Consort Du and the King of Shu had already reached the Lu family's lair. If they escaped at this time and something happened to these two lunatics, not only would everyone die, but the nine clans would also be implicated.
"Fight to the death!"
The Zhuozhou army, which was originally defeated, suddenly gathered like a black cloud and bit the retreating Lu army.
After hearing the news, Lu Mingzhou was furious and ordered his troops to turn around and attack, preparing to eliminate Liu Wentong in one fell swoop and then return to the Lu family's home base.
Unexpectedly, the Zhuozhou army suddenly became extremely brave, and they were not afraid of death.
For a time, the battlefield fell into a stalemate.
Lu Mingzhou could no longer retreat.
…
Du He continued to search everywhere with these stragglers. As long as there was a team that was broken up, they were tricked by Wang Xiaowu and others into joining.
In a short time, Du He already had more than 3,000 people under his command.
In fact, the explosive packets brought by the Kirov airship did not kill many people.
When it explodes, what is really destroyed is the building and the psychology of the Lu people.
Most of Lu Huaguang's men were in panic after the explosion. Senior officials and generals fled and ran away. These soldiers were leaderless. It happened that at this time they heard that King Xia had raised the banner of King Ming, so these people joined in one after another.
.
The troops are moving forward.
Wang Xiaowu suddenly came over and reported, "Military advisor, there is a troop of about 200 people in front of us. They say they are from the King of Shu."
King of Shu?
Of course, this King of Shu is not Li Ke.
It was Lu Huayuan, the younger brother of Ming King Lu Huaguang.
The people around were surprised.
Du He, however, remained calm: "Let's go and have a look."
Du He came to the front and saw a group of men and horses holding the banner of the King of Shu in the distance.
Du He squinted his eyes and asked, "Has any of you seen the King of Shu?"
Wang Xiaowu shook his head: "Military advisor, I am just a little boy. I have never seen the King of Shu."
"I've never seen it before!"
Everyone shook their heads.
That would be easy to handle.
Du He pointed at the big flag opposite and said loudly: "You have never seen the King of Shu, but I, the military advisor, have. The King of Shu and the King of Xia are close friends. I often go in and out of the King of Shu's mansion. Please open your eyes and see.
The King of Shu on the opposite side is a fake, a fake one by the Tang army. Come here, attack and capture the fake King of Shu."
"yes!"
Wang Puppy took the order and left.
"Catch the fake King of Shu!"
"Catch the fake King of Shu!"
"Kill!"
The cry of killing was everywhere.
Wang Xiaoqiao led the men and went towards them to kill them.
…
In the yard.
The King of Shu, Lu Huayuan, was still a little dizzy.
Everything that happened today really caught people off guard.
First, many bright lights appeared in the sky.
Then, the palace of King Ming began to explode.
Everyone fled in a hurry, but they didn't know that shortly after setting off, King Ming was hit by an arrow and died.
At present, all the civil and military ministers under King Ming are following Lu Huayuan.
At this moment, a military general rushed in and said happily: "King Shu, we are not defeated. We still have a force of more than 3,000 people outside. With these people, we can make a comeback.
"
Lu Huayuan rubbed his chubby face, "But... Prince Ming is dead."
Wow.
All the civil and military ministers suddenly bowed their heads.
"I invite the King of Shu to ascend the throne."
"Welcome to the King of Shu!"
"Please King Shu lead us to avenge King Ming!"
"The King of Qi is reckless. Now, only the King of Shu is qualified to inherit the rule of King Ming."
Everyone asked Lu Huayuan to succeed Lu Huaguang as King Ming.
Lu Huayuan was overjoyed.
"Everyone, if this is the case, then I will be disrespectful. Someone, go and call the generals with 3,000 people outside." Lu Huayuan soon began to enjoy the taste of power.
Unexpectedly, before he finished speaking, he heard voices such as "Kill him" and "Capture the fake King of Shu alive" suddenly rang out from outside.
This...what's going on?
Lu Huayuan was so frightened that he knelt on the ground.
