Zhao Changsu who is far away in the north is also going crazy!
Since coming to the northern border, I have finally frightened those local snakes with iron-blooded methods, but the northern barbarians have invaded again. Just fight, the court will not give any soldiers or food, and even issued a military order to Zhao Changsu to fight against the barbarians!
I resist you, grandma!
The Northern Barbarians fought with great force from the edge to Liangcheng, the city where Zhao Changsu was located. Their momentum surged. If the follow-up food and grass hadn't kept up, Liangcheng would have been breached long ago!
Fortunately, he received the news in advance and managed to hold on for half a month with the people in the city. But even so, Zhao Changsu felt that his life was coming to an end.
I heard that the Northern Barbarians' logistics is already speeding up the transportation of military supplies. The Northern Barbarians will launch a massive attack by then. What about Liangcheng?
For this reason, he studied the Northern Barbarians diligently, and unexpectedly discovered that the reason why the Northern Barbarians wanted to attack this time, even at the cost of tearing up a century-old alliance, was actually an epidemic.
The northern barbarian grasslands were already desolate in winter, and an epidemic broke out, leaving them desperate.
In order to make a comeback, Zhao Changsu went out of the city alone, met and negotiated with the Northern Barbarian generals, and exchanged prescriptions for treating the epidemic, so that the Northern Barbarians could stop there.
But the northern barbarians did not agree. What he wanted was to fight for a better survival territory for the tribe, and he could see at a glance that Zhao Changsu had no soldiers to use. He also pointed out that the northern officials were running away and scattered, and even advised Zhao Changsu, why not Just submit to the Northern Barbarians and marry the Northern Barbarian princess to ensure his prosperity and wealth!
The negotiations broke up, and Zhao Changsu was intercepted on his way back.
The other party is none other than the Northern Barbarian princess, Saya.
"Are you the prince who was driven to the north? I heard that you could be the emperor." Saya had been riding a horse since she was a child. She had a heroic appearance, and her conversation with Zhao Changsu was very loud across the air.
Moreover, she was not asking but confirming.
"Why don't you just listen to the general and marry me!"
Zhao Changsu had never seen such a bold and unrestrained woman. She took the initiative to marry the man she met for the first time...
No, it was kidnapping!
Saya brought more than twenty strong men and directly surrounded Zhao Changsu and Aman.
"Is this how the princess treats the envoy?" Zhao Changsu looked at Saya with a sullen face and extremely unkind eyes.
But Saya found this kind of Zhao Changsu very interesting. Although he had a fair and harmless face, he still looked at her with such a vicious look.
Like a sheep trying to act like a wolf.
Saya smiled openly and didn't care about his bad face at all. Instead, she drove her horse forward and condescendingly rubbed Zhao Changsu's face with her riding crop. Two black marks immediately appeared on it.
Zhao Changsu's face became even more disgusting: "Princess, respect yourself!"
"Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha……"
"Come here, tie me back, I will marry you tonight!"
She, Saya, just fell in love with this Zhao Changsu!
But a dark-faced strong man following her stopped the men who were about to step forward and said to Saya: "Princess, please think twice!"
"Think twice, don't think that I'll like you just by saying a few words! Go away!" Saya was fierce and went straight to the whip, but the strong man didn't even blink. His tough attitude made Saya get on fire.
"It's not your turn to tell me what I want to do! I'll marry him!" Saya roared angrily and whipped him a few more times, and the strong man suffered all of it.
"Princess, please think twice!"
Saya was furious and wanted to rob her directly, but was slapped by Zhao Changsu.
"you!"
Zhao Changsu sneered: "I will never fall in love with a shrew like you! Princess, please come back!"
"You bastard!" Saya was offended and swung the whip at Zhao Changsu mercilessly.
Aman rushed to protect the Lord and saw that the two sides were about to fight, but Zhao Changsu knew that he would never win.
At this critical moment, Di Wuji arrived with his men, and the strength of both sides suddenly became balanced, and the strong man and Di Wuji knew who was better with just one move.
If there is a fight, Saya may not be able to take advantage.
"Hmph, I'll let you go. If the Northern Barbarians retreat, you'd better get on my bed!" Saya said harsh words and left with the others.
Di Wuji didn't expect to see Zhao Changsu himself so easily, and he immediately presented the food, grass, and prescriptions for treating the epidemic that he had brought.
Zhao Changsu was overjoyed and took Di Wuji back to Liangcheng. From then on, Di Wuji became Zhao Changsu's first friend in the north.
Because many of the officials in Liangcheng were killed or fled, Zhao Changsu directly gave Di Wuji the title of military advisor and entrusted him with the important task of defending the city.
Di Wuji, who suddenly had the right to speak and military power, deeply understood Zhao Changsu's plight and desire for talents.
What's more, he, Di Wuji, is a person who can bring a steady stream of food and grass.
Zhao Changsu felt that Di Wuji was sent by God to help him! Directly commensurate with his brother, it is a shame to meet him so late.
It's just that the Northern Barbarians are still not that easy to negotiate, but with Di Wuji's food and grass and the young men he gathered on the road as recruits, it is much better than before.
Di Wuji had no experience in military training, so Zhao Changsu sent a message to the old subordinates he knew and rushed to Liangcheng to train troops and study military tactics with Di Wuji.
One month later, after repelling another attack from the Northern Barbarians, Di Wuji offered to reward the new recruits with roasted lamb legs.
Everyone cheers!
After a rare night of relaxation, Zhao Changsu brought two jars of wine to the city wall.
"Everyone else is eating meat and drinking, why are you here alone?" Zhao Changsu sat on the floor, opened a jar of wine and handed it to Di Wuji.
Di Wuji looked at the dark scenery outside the city, raised his head and took a sip of wine: "The Northern Barbarians are treacherous, and I'm afraid they will make a sneak attack. There must be someone here to keep an eye on me."
Zhao Changsu looked at Di Wuji and said with a smile: "I, Zhao Changsu, am so lucky to meet a righteous man like you! Come, have a drink!"
The two clinked and took another sip of wine.
The strong alcohol slid down their throats and into their bodies, driving away some of the cold air.
"Actually, the ones who can continuously provide us with food and grass are my brothers. We are both from Jiangnan." Di Wuji mentioned Lu Mingyu to Zhao Changsu for the first time. He wanted to test whether Zhao Changsu knew about Lu Mingyu.
"His name is Lu Mingyu."
Zhao Changsu was surprised but not surprised. Of course he knew that a martial arts idiot like Di Wuji didn't look like someone who knew how to do business.
"I see, since you are a friend of Brother Di, you are also a friend of me, Zhao Changsu! What's more, the biggest problem for me in this crisis is food and grass. Without Brother Lu, even if our Liangcheng is not breached, it will be You will starve to death, after all, you and Brother Lu are my benefactors, Zhao Changsu."
"Don't take it seriously. It's all for the sake of the people."
"Yes! For the people!"
The two drank together again for the sake of their own righteousness.
At this point, Di Wuji officially decided to follow Zhao Changsu and achieve great things for him!
At the same time, he wrote a letter to inform Lu Mingyu of the information he had learned so far, and asked for some money to buy weapons.
There are more and more new soldiers, and there are not enough weapons.
After getting the letter, Lu Mingyu couldn't help but curse: "Does he really think that my money is brought by the strong wind?"
Gao Tong, who was nibbling on a book, raised his head, glanced at it, and then lowered his head.
Lu Mingyu, who didn't get a response for a long time, had no choice but to walk to the desk, look at the stacks of books, and asked with confusion on his face: "What are you doing?"
"Read a book!" Gao Tong flipped through the book without even looking up.
Lu Mingyu was startled, then reached out and took out the book in Gao Tong's hand, and flipped through it: "The sun is rising in the west? What are you doing? Scientific examination?"
"Yes, I want to be the number one scholar!" Gao Tong put the brush on his ear, his eyes shining.
"No, no, no, didn't you say you wouldn't take the exam?"
Weird things don't happen often, but why are there so many lately?
First, Bai Lu asked herself to practice martial arts with Wangchuan Wangquan, hoping to become a female secret guard like Shi Shui. Then, the concubines in the family who were originally peaceful were a little too active, and someone always jumped out to block his way...
Also, Lin Wanyu has been practicing concealed weapons more and more recently, and he was scared just by looking at that posture!
Unexpectedly, after coming out and sneaking into the Gao Mansion, I saw Gao Tong studying for the scientific examination? !
Lu Mingyu said that he couldn't bear it.
He pulled up a chair and sat across from Gao Tong, narrowing his eyes: "Tell me, what made you change your mind."
Although Gao Tong is a willful person who does whatever he wants and doesn't do anything if he doesn't want to, he is rarely careless in important matters.
"For Ning Xin! His family said that as long as I get on the list in high school, Ning Xin will marry me!"
This is the result of Gao Tong seeking benevolence and receiving benevolence. He cherishes it very much, so he has to work extremely hard to achieve it!
Of course, this is not unexpected, but very reasonable.
"Tsk, tsk, men in love are so scary!" Lu Mingyu put the book back into Gao Tong's hand with a look of disgust on his face.
"What do you know? When you really fall in love with someone, you will realize that you can do anything for her!" Gao Tong raised his eyebrows, "Then who, daughter of the Lin family, brother Ruodi helped Zhao Changsu rise to power, how dare you Don’t you dare to compete with the emperor for a woman?”
"No, no, it's not Brother Di. You are the one who provided the bulk of the money. You helped Zhao Changsu to that position, and he comes to steal women from you. What should you do?"
Gao Tong didn't mind watching the excitement.
But this also reminded Lu Mingyu, and he immediately wrote back to Di Wuji, saying that he didn't have to worry about money, and that getting things done for me was the top priority!
What's up?
Naturally, I asked Zhao Changsu about his attitude towards Lin Wanyu!
The worst case scenario is that Zhao Changsu doesn't know that Lin Wanyu is a concubine in Jiangnan, and he wants to take Lin Wanyu back when he succeeds. So who does Lu Mingyu mean to him?
No, no!
This is a big, big thing about a man's dignity and lifelong happiness!
Also, to be on the safe side, he had to marry Lin Wanyu as soon as possible.
Zhao Changsu wouldn't risk the disapproval of the world to rob a married Lin Wanyu, right?
Just do it!
After Lu Mingyu finished sending the letter, he pointed at the stack of books and encouraged Gao Tong: "Read well! If you don't come back with a top score, don't call him my brother!"
Yes, yes, if Gao Tong is the literary champion and can become Zhao Changsu's most trusted civil servant, and with the military commander Di Wuji, he, Lu Mingyu, has a greater chance of being able to lead Lin Wanyu to retreat with success!
Also, Lu Mingyu should not just be a businessman, he also needs to have some more important status!
For happiness, he, Lu Mingyu, will have to fight for many years!
