In recent years, Nanzezhou has been said to be one of the four major aristocratic families, but the Lu, Bai, and Jin families have always looked up to the Li family. The head of the Lu family doesn't know what the Bai family and the Jin family think, but he himself has long been dissatisfied with being overshadowed by the Li family.
The Li family gets the benefit first. When they are charged into battle, the other three aristocratic families are in front. In the end, the Li family gets the lion's share of the spoils.
The head of the Lu family used to be dissatisfied and did not dare to say anything, but if Nanzejun, who has soldiers, becomes his puppet, then whether it is the Li family or the other two families, he has the ability to swallow them up and become the real number one in Nanzezhou. Family.
When the time comes, his family will be the only one in Nanzezhou, and he will be like a prince. This life is really beautiful to think about.
The more the head of the Lu family thought about it, the happier he became. However, before he could finish his sweet dream, he was interrupted by a servant who crawled in to report the news.
"Master, it's not good!"
The servant who reported the news was dressed in messy clothes. He looked as if he had been in a fight and his voice was broken. After breaking in, he fell limply at the feet of the Lu Family Master.
At this time, the head of the Lu family had not thought about the seriousness of the problem. He just frowned, looked at the servant who broke in unhappily, and started to scold him.
"What's going on? Didn't I tell you that big things can't come to ruin my fun while I'm having fun?"
The servant was already crying, pointing his trembling hand outside: "Sir, Mr. Nanze has sent people to fight. The private soldiers can't stop Mr. Nanze's elite soldiers. The door has been opened!"
The head of the Lu family stood up suddenly and roared in disbelief: "What did you say! Who called in!"
He couldn't believe the news at all. Wasn't Nan Zejun trapped by his nephew Lu Yifan's beauty trap? Why would you want to attack him?
Moreover, the head of the Lu family felt that the Lu family mansion should not be opened so soon.
Even though the Lu family's house is in the city, it is actually a city within a city. It has an independent city wall and a defensive archery tower. It is said to be a family house, but it is actually a small fortress with a super strong gate.
The head of the Lu family refused to believe that the Lu family could be broken up so easily, but the constant shouts of killing coming from outside forced the head of the Lu family to believe that Zhao Yanhuan had really sent someone to beat him.
The head of the Lu family's legs weakened and he fell to the ground. He asked the servant next to him in a panic: "Nan Zejun, why, why did she hit our Lu family!?"
The servant was destined not to be able to answer the questions asked by the Lu Family Master, because as soon as the Lu Family Master finished speaking, the door to the room was violently pushed open from the outside. Zhao Huaer, dressed in armor, walked in with a row of soldiers.
The head of the Lu family collapsed on the ground and looked up at Zhao Hua'er in despair.
Zhao Hua'er looked at the head of the Lu family with cold eyes. She didn't even bother to talk nonsense with him, and waved directly to the soldiers behind her: "Tie him up and find an empty room to lock him up."
Two soldiers came over and picked up the Lu family leader who was lying limply on the ground, tied him up and dragged him down.
The head of the Lu family didn't beg for mercy. He was not a fool. One look at Zhao Hua'er's attitude and he knew that his situation was over. Since Mr. Nan Ze had attacked him, he would definitely not show mercy, so begging was useless.
The Lu family's mansion is not the most difficult to fight, because there are not many private soldiers in the family, and more private soldiers are stationed in the Lu family's special area.
Luan Xiong is in charge here. Luan Xiong has always been brave. When fighting, he likes to take the lead and lead the charge. He is a general who can mobilize the blood and enthusiasm of the soldiers.
Under the leadership of Luan Xiong, almost at the same time that Zhao Hua'er captured the Lu family's old residence, the 40,000 private soldiers controlled by the Lu family were defeated by Luan Xiong.
At this moment, the private soldiers raised by the Lu family raised their hands, knelt on the ground, and threw their weapons on the ground. Luan Xiong was leading people to deal with these prisoners.
After kicking the spear under his feet, Luan Xiong couldn't help but said in annoyance: "Grandma, I thought I could have a good fight, but it turns out that the private soldiers of this family are just like paper. They were finished with a single charge."
Next to him, the military advisor who was sent by Zhao Yanhuan to keep an eye on Luan Xiong and help him handle the internal affairs said with a smile: "Does General Luan Xiong still expect these private soldiers who are hungry and hungry to train with us every day?" Elite soldiers cannot resist."
The military advisor glanced at the private soldiers of the Lu family, who didn't have a single strong man, and tutted: "All of them are as skinny as poles. Our soldiers can slap a row of them with one slap."
Luan Xiong couldn't help but mocked and said: "This aristocratic family is really short-sighted. The private soldiers they raise can starve like this. What's the use of a paper army that can be defeated in a single fight on the battlefield."
The military advisor looked at the account book in his hand, frowned slightly and said, "This is not entirely the family's fault. No matter how stupid they are, there is no way they would not feed their private army and point them to protect themselves."
"There is a problem with this account book. Most of the military salaries and wages of these private armies have been divided up by the generals and administrators in this private army. When it is the turn of these private armies, there is only a little left."
Luan Xiong clicked his tongue a few times: "These aristocratic families specialize in raising borers. It is better for our lord to be her soldier. You can eat enough and eat meat. Not only will you be given free land, but you will also be given cotton-padded clothes in winter and single clothes in summer. No need to So comfortable.”
Luan Xiong and the military advisor talked unscrupulously, as if they had no intention of talking. As they talked, they complained and explained.
Soon, all the captives of the Lu family's private soldiers knew that by serving as Nanzejun's soldiers, they could eat meat, be well fed, wear warm clothes, and be given land, and they would not be in arrears with their military pay. The originally numb prisoners began to be impetuous. stand up.
After Luan Xiong and the military advisor returned to the temporary military tent, it didn't take long for the people who were left to observe the prisoners to report, and the hearts of the prisoners became excited.
The prisoners, who had been numb and allowed themselves to be dealt with, began to whisper in groups, and looked at Luan Xiong's soldiers with envious eyes from time to time.
Luan Xiong and the military advisor had a look of satisfaction on their faces, as if he and the military advisor had put on a big show outside.
Luan Xiong and Zhao Hua'er's actions were very smooth, and Luan Hu's actions were not slow either. The Taoist temple used by the Lu family for alchemy was very large, and most of the hillside was occupied by the Taoist temple.
Luan Hu didn't even need to look for it when he saw the Lu family's Taoist temple. The entire Taoist temple was beautiful, with every door and window made by masters. The carvings on it could not be overstated.
The green bricks on the floor of the Taoist temple are all engraved with lotus prints. The courtyard has towering ancient trees and clear springs. At first glance, it is a good place for quiet practice.
Such a peaceful and beautiful Taoist temple, who would have thought that underneath this Taoist temple is actually a purgatory on earth.
Luan Hu and his men lifted up the floor of the Taoist temple's main hall and found the entrance to the underground cage. The smell of blood that hit his nostrils made Luan Hu, who was used to seeing blood, feel a little nauseous.
It's not the nausea caused by the smell of blood, but the nausea caused by thinking about the source of these bloody smells.
There were torches lit below, which were enough to illuminate. Luan Hu led the people all the way in. The underground was all filled with cages, and each cage was filled with imprisoned boys and girls!
