Dress up as a sickly person to capture the villain princess!

Gu Zhao was disdainful of such a simple provocation. He reached out and threw the military chess piece back from Lu Boshan's hand, then raised his hand and waved to the army behind him.

He would order his troops to draw their bows and arrows, aim at the army on the other side of the river, and fire rockets.

"Wait a minute, am I leading the team now or are you?"

"You are too brave."

Lu Boshan put away the military flag, threw it down, and threw it into the arms of his personal guards.

Hearing him say this, Gu Zhao raised his head, slightly puzzled, wondering what this young master was going to do next.

"Are you crazy..."

Hearing Gu Zhao's doubt, Lu Boshan didn't care and picked up his spear again. The spear in his hand was like a dragon entering the water and flying in the sky.

He performed a gun dance, looking very proud.

"Only a rat in the gutter like you would resort to such despicable means. You should know that as a general, you have to set a good example for the army."

"If I could single-handedly defeat that old man with one shot, do you think it would boost morale?"

Lu Boshan was full of confidence. He just saw the right opportunity and believed that the opponent was just an old veteran. How could he compare with himself who was young and strong.

“Arrogant and ignorant.”

"Now that things have come to this, I finally understand why His Highness sent you here."

I'm afraid this is a case of the fisherman gaining from the conflict between the crane and the clam.

If Marquis Zhongyong wins today, then trapping the remaining followers of King Wen outside the Yong River will inevitably be a tug-of-war, which will consume a large amount of military pay and military equipment in Lu Boshan's hands.

However, it seems that it is not so easy for Marquis Zhongyong to win today. He is so reckless and confident that he can defeat the heir of Xu's army. He thinks he is too good of a dish.

According to rumors, the head of Xu's army was captured by the barbarians and endured hardships for more than twenty years before he managed to escape from the wolves and tigers.

He shed bitter tears, but no one could tell.

He recruited new soldiers and horses on the border, set up camps and recruited the barbarians, and finally reassembled his army. However, he was already old at that time, and it was difficult for him to seek revenge on the barbarians.

He could only give repeated instructions to his descendants before his death and died with hatred in his heart.

However, due to the reputation of Xu's army, which was particularly well-known among the people in the early years, there was an endless stream of people coming to join them, and the reputation of this village built on the border became more and more famous.

The army he supported expanded from a few thousand people at the beginning to tens of thousands. This was indeed a considerable threat to the imperial court.

Therefore, the late emperor sent ministers in the court who had marriage or family relations with Xu's army to negotiate, and only then did he successfully capture Xu's army's stronghold.

Let them submit to the court.

"I'm too lazy to argue with you. You are such an incompetent person, you can only compete with me with words here."

"If I come back victorious, will you still be so high and mighty?"

Lu Boshan didn't say anything else. He pulled the reins and rode away, leaving his spear behind him, signaling all the soldiers not to follow him. Then Lu Boshan yelled at the soldiers guarding the iron bridge.

"Put the bridge down!"

This sentence made the other generals who followed Lu Boshan frown, especially Nuo Zimu who walked at the end without saying a word.

If the iron bridge is lowered and the other side breaks into the bridge by force, Yonghe will probably be lost today.

"My Lord! Absolutely not!"

Ling Tong shouted at the white figure, but he was always one step slower. The soldiers guarding Yong River had already been replaced by the personal soldiers under the command of Marquis Zhongyong.

They only obeyed Lu Boshan's orders and ignored orders from others.

The iron bridge was slowly lowered, and Lu Boshan rode up on his horse, with the tip of his spear supporting the bridge surface. He moved the spear slightly, and jumped down, with his robe flying under his armor, looking very vigorous.

"Since you are the heir of the Xu family army, I believe that the general will keep his word and will not go back on his word."

"Let's have a competition today!"

"If I win, I hope the general will agree to one of my requests."

The enemy also rode up on horseback and jumped onto the iron bridge. As expected, the army behind him did not move, which made the generals behind Lu Boshan all breathe a sigh of relief.

As expected, even though the Xu family army has declined to this point, the most basic benevolence and morality are still there, and they will not act rashly.

They rebelled probably because King Wen had promised them some benefits, or because King Wen had given some preferential treatment to Xu's army.

The fundamental reason behind this is not difficult to guess. As for the amnesty, this cannot redress the grievances suffered by the ancestors of the Xu family in the past. What they want is probably to bring honor to their family and be recognized by the court.

"Well, since the Marquis of Loyalty and Bravery is acting so righteously, there is no reason for me not to agree!"

"Today, you and I will compete here. If I lose, I will keep my word and the Xu Army will never interfere in the affairs of the court again!"

"Okay?"

The temptation was so great. Lu Boshan was still too young. When he heard that Xu's army would not send troops again, his eyes lit up.

The expression on his face became bright.

He smiled brightly.

"nature!"

……

Today's Zhoucheng.

A team of shadow guards stood on the city wall and looked at the dark clouds in the distance, and they all sighed.

It is snowing lightly in the city now, and I am afraid that heavy snow will fall soon. When the road is frozen, this battle will become increasingly difficult to fight.

At present, His Highness is still using the silver reserves in the national treasury. There is no need to increase taxes from the people. However, if this war continues, who can say what will happen?

"Stop sighing. Look! Is that one of ours?"

Another person stood on the city wall, his eyes fixed on a fast-moving black dot in the distance. His tone became a little surprised, and he patted the leader on the shoulder with one hand.

After he said that, the team leader's eyes were fixed on the shadow guard who was riding a horse. He was in such a hurry and was wearing heavy armor.

Perhaps there was some military intelligence from the front line, so it was sent back urgently over 800 miles away.

"Open the city gate quickly!"

"I think a letter must have been sent back. You...you hurry down and prepare the horse. After I get the letter, I will go to see His Highness."

The shadow guard also knew that this matter could not be delayed. If the military intelligence from the front line was delivered too late, it would delay His Highness's judgment and Jinzhou City would be in danger of being lost.

"Yes, I'll go down and prepare it now!"

The horses had been prepared in the stables long ago. They were top-quality horses sent as tribute from foreign countries, and they were meant to be used urgently. This was exactly the purpose for which His Highness had them stationed here.

All you have to do is fasten the saddle and you can be on your way to the palace in no time.

I just don’t know whether this letter is good or bad, I hope it’s news of the great victory in the battle of Yonghe!
