"Tell me! Who sent you here!" Lu Chen inserted the pistol into the holster and looked at Niu Er, who was holding his thigh and shaking like chaff.
"The villain is from Guangzong County!" Niu Er said tremblingly.
"Where is Guangzong County?" Lu Chen turned to look at Fang Qi.
"It should be a county town more than fifty miles away from here!" Fang Qi thought for a while and said.
"What are you doing here in Guangzong County?" Lu Chen turned around and continued to look at Niu Er.
"The villain is a petty official under the county captain of Guangzong County. The day before yesterday, the county captain brought people here to enjoy the autumn breeze, and then sent the younger one here to finish it off. I saw the adults and others passing by on horseback in front of me. I didn't dare to show my face, so I followed him. !" Niu Er screamed with joy and said everything he knew in one breath.
"Fight the Autumn Wind?!" Lu Chen gritted his teeth and looked at Niu Er, wishing he could kill him with one shot. There were dozens of people in the village, including the old, weak, women and children. Is this something a human can do?
"I'm going to NM!" After hearing Niu Er's words, Fang Qi went up and kicked Niu Er in the chest. Meng Ji even pulled out his waist knife and prepared to kill Niu Er with one blow.
"Stop!" Lu Chen shouted and stopped the two of them, "He is still useful! How can we deal with that county captain if he is dead!"
Hearing Lu Chen's words, Fang Qi and Meng Ji spat at Niu Er: "Crap!" They turned around and came to Lu Chen's side.
"Bandage his wounds. As long as he doesn't die, go to Guangzong County!" Lu Chen glared at Niu Er fiercely, greeted everyone, and got on his horse.
A soldier came over and simply bandaged Niu Er's thigh, then tied his hands and feet, placed a crossbar on his horse, and followed the large army in front.
"Black Wind" flew with four hooves, Lu Chen spurred his horse, and a crowd of people rushed to the gate of Guangzong County like wind and lightning. When the guards saw this group of men with bright armor and fierce looks, how could they dare to stop Lu Chen? Chen led his men to beat the horses and rushed into the city gate.
Those with quick legs saw Lu Chen leading people into the city gate and ran directly to the county government office to report to the county magistrate. When Lu Chen arrived at the gate of the county government office and got off his horse, the county magistrate Dong Liang had already led the county magistrate and the county magistrate. The book and the county lieutenant stood at the yamen gate.
Guangzong County was only a middle county in the county hierarchy of the Tang Dynasty, so there was only one county magistrate, chief secretary and county captain.
Lu Chen looked directly at the county lieutenant who was standing to the right of the county magistrate and was dressed in military uniform. This man had a muscular face and a burly figure, but his eyes always glanced away from time to time, apparently because of his unsettled thoughts. generation.
Looking at Lu Chen, who was wearing a camouflage training uniform, County Magistrate Dong Liang looked surprised. But when he saw Fang Qi and Meng Ji following Lu Chen, he instantly put away his surprised eyes and put on his clothes. A smiling face, after all, Fang Qi had been here before and he knew him.
"Captain Fang is here, what are you doing? I'm late to welcome you, so I hope you'll forgive me!" Dong Liang, who was wearing a green official uniform, bowed his hands to Fang Qi and saluted Fang Qi. At this time, his official uniform was a round-neck robe. Different ranks have different colors. As for the "襕shirt" that later generations called, it did not appear until Ma Zhou became the prime minister. As for the "dressed beasts", it would not appear until Wu Zhao became emperor.
"Excuse me?" Fang Qi looked at Dong Liang and sneered, "I'm afraid your sin is too serious, and I can't help you! How about you ask my military advisor?" Fang Qi said and looked at the standing man. Move, Lu Chen with a cold face.
"Strategist?" Dong Liang was stunned when he heard Fang Qi's words. He turned to look at Lu Chen. This young man in strange clothes was actually the military adviser of the Detachment of Women. He had never heard of this person before!
However, Dong Liang has been an official for many years, and he still has the ability to adapt to the wind. He hurriedly rushed to Lu Chen and bowed his hands and saluted: "I don't know that the military advisor has arrived. I apologize for my poor eyesight and failing to recognize the military advisor." Sir, I hope that the military advisor will forgive me!"
"Have you seen me?" Lu Chen asked directly as he looked at Dong Liang, a skinny old man in his forties with a gray beard in front of him.
"Uh... I haven't seen it before!" Dong Liang thought about it in his mind. He was just being polite. Why did this military advisor directly attack others? But he couldn't get angry, so he could only ponder for a moment and replied.
"I've never seen it before, you're stupid!" Lu Chen was very angry and didn't give Dong Liang any face, "Hypocritical!"
Lu Chen's words saved Dong Liang's internal injuries. He secretly wondered, could this hot-tempered guy be the military counselor of the Women's Army? She looks very upright and pretty, maybe not like Li Xiuning! Of course, this was what he was thinking in his heart. If Dong Liang dared to say this, Fang Qi and the others would be able to chop him alive on the spot.
Just when Dong Liang was secretly cursing and not knowing how to answer, Lu Chen asked directly: "Who is the county captain?" Lu Chen clearly saw the arrogant-looking county captain at a glance, so he asked directly.
"Your Majesty, Mei Renxin, have you met the military advisor!" After hearing Lu Chen's question, County Lieutenant Mei Renxin, who had been standing aside, hurried over to greet Lu Chen.
"Mei Renxin? No one has the heart?" Lu Chen heard Mei Renxin's name, combined with the tragic situation in the small mountain village, "You really live up to your name!" Lu Chen stared at Mei Renxin fiercely and said through gritted teeth. .
Hearing Lu Chen's words, Mei Renxin's heart skipped a beat, and she immediately thought that the incident of her dressing up as a Turkic cavalry to "fight the autumn wind" had been leaked. However, Mei Renxin immediately overturned this idea. It can be said that what she did was flawless. The military advisor should be testing himself.
The expression on Mei Renxin's lowered face changed slightly, and then immediately returned to its original state. She rushed to Lu Chen and raised her hands again and said, "I don't know why I offended your lord, so that your lord can say this to me!" His face actually showed a trace of emotion. A trace of dissatisfaction.
"Oh? It seems you have a lot of opinions about me!" Lu Chen looked at Mei Renxin and said with a sneer.
"I only know that your Excellency is a bit bully!" Mei Renxin looked at Lu Chen with an increasingly dissatisfied expression.
"Okay! You're doing a good job! Come on! Bring me here!" Lu Chen didn't want to deal with this overly-motivated Mei Ren. After all, he had important matters to attend to!
As soon as Lu Chen finished speaking, there were two soldiers behind him, dragging Niu Er over like a dog to death. After all, the horse had been bumped all the way, and with the wound on his leg, Niu Er was obviously confused at this time. Half of my life is gone.
"This is..." Looking at Niu Er who was thrown to the ground like a dead dog, County Magistrate Dong Liang was a little confused, because he still knew Niu Er, a small official, but he didn't know how he ended up in such a miserable state.
As for Mei Renxin, who was standing next to Dong Liang, she looked at Niu Er with a gloomy expression.
