"What? Does the Lord seem to have something to hide?" Lin Lang asked in a low voice, seeing Lu Chen's slightly unnatural smile as he accepted the imperial edict.
"I'm talking about father-in-law! Don't you realize that there are too many guards?" Lu Chen pointed at the three thousand soldiers who followed Lin Lang behind him and said with a wry smile.
"This..." Lin Lang quietly turned around and glanced at the endless army. Lin Lang also felt that these three thousand back Wei guards were really a bit "out of line".
"After all, it was given by His Majesty, how dare you resist and disobey the decree?" Lin Lang also thought about the issue of "violating the rules", but after all, it was a reward from the emperor's imperial decree, and Lin Lang couldn't say anything.
"Hey!" Lu Chen sighed helplessly. After all, Lin Lang was just a servant delivering orders, so what was the use of telling him? "Uncle Lao Lin has sent you a message!" Lu Chen said, taking out a handful of copper coins from his sleeve and stuffing them into Lin Lang's hand.
"We have just thanked you for the reward!" Lin Lang was not polite to Lu Chen, and directly put the wedding money given by Lu Chen into his sleeve, and said to Lu Chen, cupping his hands, "Our family will return to the palace right away. The decree has gone, does the master have anything to say to our family?" Lin Lang said the first half of the sentence in a loud voice, and the second half in a lowered voice.
Lu Chen looked at Lin Lang. He originally wanted to say something, but after glancing at the people around Lin Lang, he still didn't say anything. He just said: "Eunuch, please go slowly! I'm sorry that I can't send you far away!" After all, Lu Chen is now The "foot-banning order" has not been lifted yet, so you cannot leave Lujiazhuang.
"In this case, let's say goodbye!" Lin Lang nodded to Lu Chen, cupped his hands to Lu Chen, turned around and left Lujiazhuang with a group of people.
After Lin Lang left with the declaring team, he saw in front of the three thousand soldiers, two captain generals wearing captain armor shook their reins, and their horses rushed directly to Lu Chen. When they arrived in front of Lu Chen, these The two lieutenants and generals reined in their horses, turned over and jumped off their horses. They all rushed to Lu Chen to salute and said, "Military advisor, long time no see!"
When Lu Chen saw clearly the faces of the two people under the helmets, Lu Chen said in surprise: "It's you two!"
"It's my subordinate!" The two of them laughed at Lu Chen's surprised look.
The two captains who came were none other than the two captains from Li Xiuning's Detachment of Women, Lian Xiude and Peng Zun. Lu Chen knew them because they were the first to test the iron harness.
"Why are you two here?" Lu Chen asked with some surprise as he looked at the two of them.
You know, when he heard that the imperial edict granted him three thousand Beiwei guards, one Lu Chen complained a little about Li Yuan, creating an excuse for himself to "go beyond the rules" and giving it to the officials of the aristocratic family; the other was that these three thousand Beiwei guards were given to him. How to subdue Weiwei Lu Chen? If an unfamiliar general leads the team, it will take a lot of effort to reorganize a team of more than 3,000 people.
When he saw that Lian Xiude and Peng Zun were leading the team, Lu Chen understood that these three thousand backwei guards were probably selected by Li Xiuning from the Detachment of Women and sent to him.
And when he heard the two people calling him military advisor, Lu Chen's eyes lit up. Yes, who said he had no military power? He, the military advisor of the Detachment of Women, had not yet been laid off. Li Xiuning had given him a piece of her back then. With this waist card of Li Xiuning, he had the power to mobilize the Detachment of Women. When he thought of this, Lu Chen suddenly felt a lot brighter. And with these three thousand Weiwei guards, Lu Chen also had a new plan.
These three thousand people can be selected. It just so happens that Lu Chen wants to make flintlocks and artillery. These three thousand people are all from the Detachment of Women. It will be much more convenient to train and select them by yourself, and they will be loyal. The degree is also relatively high.
"The marshal asked us to come!" Lian Xiude said to Lu Chen, clasping his fists, "His Majesty asked His Highness to select 3,000 people for the military advisor to expand the Beiwei Guards. The two of us fought hard to get this deal!" Lian Xiude! De laughed proudly, and Lu Chen also noticed that Lian Xiude and Peng Zun's faces were bruised and purple.
"Did you two really break your head?" Lu Chen pointed at their cheeks, somewhat dumbfounded.
"That's not true. It was mainly because I had a drink with those old guys and accidentally fell down!" Peng Zun said with a silly smile.
Lu Chen glanced at the two of them speechlessly, how could these two brothers fall like this after drinking? There really is no one else! But Lu Chen immediately thought that after drinking, these two people were beaten by other brothers because they took the opportunity to come to his place.
"It's not easy for you two to fall like this!" Lu Chen nodded with an expression of approval, "Okay! Since you two are here, come in! There just happen to be a few old brothers who are here to meet you! "
"Yes, sir!" The two of them rushed to Lu Chen and raised their hands. "I didn't expect that after not seeing each other for a long time, the military advisor has become the county prince!" Lian Xiude said with a smile, without any hint of jealousy in his eyes. , just happy for Lu Chen.
"Who is a military advisor? What is the ability of a military advisor that you and I can compare to?" Peng Zun grinned and said with a smile, "If you ask me, this county prince is inferior to the military advisor, and the national prince is about the same!"
"Stop talking nonsense!" After hearing Peng Zun's words, Lu Chen glared at Peng Zun.
"You're the only one who talks a lot!" Lian Xiude also slapped Peng Zun on the back of the head. "Are you obvious? You say anything!" Lian Xiude glared at Peng Zun.
"Yes! Yes! My subordinate made a mistake!" Peng Zun also knew that what he had just said was a little too much. Peng Zun hurriedly apologized to Lu Chen. Peng Zun was a little scared when he thought of what he had just said. If it goes online, Peng Zun's words will be suspected of "slandering the emperor", and now he is a military attaché directly under Lu Chen. If someone really comes to Li Yuan to accuse him, it will inevitably implicate Lu Chen. So he hurriedly confessed to Lu Chen.
"Don't tell anyone the truth!" Lu Chen glared at Peng Zun. The two of them widened their eyes when they heard Lu Chen's words, especially Peng Zun. He thought Lu Chen would scold him, but he didn't expect Lu Chen to say it directly. Such a sentence would immediately put these two military attaches out of control.
At this moment, Fang Qi, who was leading the patrol in the distance, saw Lian Xiude and Peng Zun who were accompanying Lu Chen towards the Hou Mansion. He had already heard about Lu Chen's reception of the order just now, and knew that Lu Chen was promoted to The county official saw Lu Chen walking back and hurriedly ran over.
"My subordinates pay their respects to the Duke!" When he came to Lu Chen, Fang Qi saluted Lu Chen with a serious face and said respectfully, "Congratulations, Lord Marquis, on your promotion to the Duke!"
"Get out!" Seeing Fang Qi's respectful look, Lu Chen directly raised his foot and gave Fang Qi a kick, "Don't do this, who did you learn this fake thing from?" Lu Chen glared at Fang Qi. .
"Hehe! Aren't I happy for the father-in-law?" Fang Qi, who was kicked by Lu Chen, immediately returned to his usual appearance and said to Lu Chen with a big smile on his face.
"Look who is behind me!" Lu Chen was already used to Fang Qi's sober-faced look, and pointed directly behind him with the folding fan in his hand.
Fang Qi then looked behind Lu Chen. When he saw Lian Xiude and Peng Zun, he had a look of surprise on his face: "Ouch! Aren't these Lian Xiude and Peng Zun? Why are you here at Lujiazhuang? "
"Okay! Old Fang, following the military advisor, your face is getting bigger and bigger!" The two of them were extremely happy to see Fang Qi. After all, they were friends who went to the battlefield together and died together. They were not polite and directly Arriving in front of Fang Qi, one person punched Fang Qi. Lu Chen smiled and watched the three of them having fun.
"Hey! Your armor is pretty good!" After each of them punched Fang Qi, they found that the armor plates on Fang Qi's body were very hard, and the shock caused their hands to feel a little painful. Then they looked at Fang Qi. On Qi's body, it was found that Fang Qi's commander-level back armor was obviously different from their standard armor.
"My lord, is this the back armor you invented, right?" Lian Xiude turned to look at Lu Chen and asked.
Lu Chen smiled and nodded, and said, "Do you want it?"
"I want it! I want it so much!" Lian Xiude and Peng Zun nodded repeatedly. Who in the military camp doesn't know that the back armor created by Lu Chen is not even afraid of a sword made of hundred-smelted steel, and he put on this armor and went to the battlefield. , it is absolutely invincible, how can any general not be greedy, let alone the Tang Dao made by Lu Chen, which will make these generals jealous after they go back. It is a pity that only Lu Chen can create such armor and weapons, not yet Externally, all the generals were scratching their heads at home, thinking of ways to get in touch with Lu Chen and get these armors and weapons.
So when Lu Chen asked Lian Xiude and Peng Zun if they wanted it, the two of them nodded like chickens eating rice. Who wouldn't be jealous of such good weapons and armor?
"Then what are you two waiting for? Just steal him! Whoever grabs it belongs to whom!" Lu Chen looked at Fang Qi and said with a smirk.
"Master, I have been very honest these past two days, you can't do this to me!" Looking at Lian Xiude and Peng Zun who were gearing up to approach him, Fang Qi retreated and asked Lu Chen for help, while Lu Chen shook his head. Holding a folding fan, he didn't care about Fang Qi's call for help, looking like he was waiting for a good show.
"Old Fang, this is the order given by the father-in-law. You can't blame our brothers!" Lian Xiude and Peng Zun were gearing up, looking at Fang Qi with a sneer. The two of them approached Fang Qi from the left and the right. It's not much different from a gangster teasing a girl.
"Don't come over here! If you come over again, I'll call for help!" Fang Qi, who was stared at by the two men's fiery eyes, was stunned. He backed away while threatening Lian Xiude and Peng Zun.
"Shout!" As he spoke, Lian Xiude opened his big hand from the left side and grabbed Fang Qi's shoulder.
"It's no use screaming!" Peng Zun hugged Fang Qi's waist from the right side. It can be said that the two of them cooperated quite well with each other.
