After hearing Lu Wu's question, Lin Ji was silent for a moment.
He did not answer Lu Wu immediately, but instead issued an order first, ordering his subordinates to take advantage of the chaos in the Shesheng camp to break out of the camp and determine the victory.
When there were only two personal guards left, Lin Jicai said to Lu Wu: "Chong'er was guarding Mr. Keyuan. Now that Mr. Keyuan has been assassinated, Chong'er is probably in trouble."
These people are all Gongzi Yuan's military confidants. Placing the eldest son beside Gongzi Yuan is not only a kind of promotion and care for the next generation, but also a disguised hostage.
"Is Gongzi Yuan really dead?" Lu Wu asked.
Although he had no experience in seizing a legitimate son, he knew that this kind of thing would be done in every possible way, and it would not be unusual to spread rumors and deceive people. Naturally, he asked this not to question, but to open up an idea for Lin Ji.
"There is no doubt that Lu Guang blocked the gate of my camp, so I sent people to climb over the wall and go out to find out the news. Although the people were blocked outside and could not come back, they also used fireworks as a signal from a distance to prove the matter." Lu Wu Lin Ji had actually thought of everything he could think of.
"What about my brother-in-law?" Lu Wu actually doesn't care about the life and death of anyone else except his own relatives and friends.
"Fireworks can only convey simple messages." Lin Ji shook his head.
"Maybe Uncle Lin can protect himself? I'm going to the city to check on Young Master Yuan's mansion and see if my brother-in-law is okay."
"Haha, Xiao Wu, you look down on your Uncle Lin too much - you are weak on your own. Wait a moment and I will go with you when the Shesheng Camp is wiped out."
"No, the black god is quick. It's convenient for me to be alone. If my brother-in-law is in urgent need of rescue, I can't afford to delay this moment."
Lu Wu hadn't finished speaking yet, and had just expressed his intention to leave. Without his urging, Hei Shen turned around on his own, spread his hooves, and ran away in a hurry.
Lin Ji stretched out his hand and before he could hold him back, he could only see a horse's butt from a distance.
"That's the fifth son of the Lu family?" Ji Bao, the commander of the soldiers around Lin Ji, exclaimed.
The relationship between some personal commanders and their generals is extremely close, especially the personal commanders who have been with the general from birth to death and have been promoted step by step. They are almost the general's family members - Ji Bao also has a banquet at Lin Ji's house. seats.
He had also seen Lu Wu when he was a child, but the way Lu Wu looked now simply shocked Ji Bao's jaw - under normal circumstances, he could have asked Lu Wu to call him uncle.
Of course, I don’t dare to say this now.
"Well, it's him. I didn't expect this child to be so, uh, so - ugh!" Lin Ji didn't know how to describe his mood at this moment, and in the end he could only sigh.
Lin Ji felt quite regretful.
If he had known that Lu Wu was so tyrannical, he would have definitely recommended him to Young Master Yuan as his personal guard. With him by his side, how could Young Master be assassinated inexplicably?
How could everyone end up in this situation?
Don't look at breaking the siege of Shesheng Camp, but where can you go? If we could snatch away Gongzi Yuan's son, we might be able to find a way to resist under the banner of Gongzi Yuan's orphan.
If not, unless he becomes a bandit, he will have no choice but to surrender and wait for the new king of Wu to be punished - or he will have to wait and see what the general plans.
"It's a pity. If Master Lu Wu could have taken action earlier, we - well, we only hope that Master Lu Wu can bring Xiao Chong back alive. It would be even better if he could come back with the young master's blood."
Ji Bao said half a sentence and then stopped talking - things have reached this point, what's the use of talking about it anymore?
"The situation is not hopeless yet. We can't count on Xiao Wu. We must quickly pacify the Shesheng camp and let's see if we can break into Songjing - if we can protect the young master's bloodline, there may be a turning point in this matter."
Lin Ji cheered up and said.
"Report, Shesheng Colonel Lu Guang is dead, most of the Shesheng battalion surrendered, and a small number fled." The soldiers came to report.
"Okay, who is going to kill the old thief Lu Guang?"
"When the golden-crowned general broke through the siege just now, he beheaded Captain Shesheng in just one move." the soldier reported.
"————"
When Lu Wu was here just now, he didn't even mention this matter.
Apparently he didn't even notice that he had killed Captain Shesheng.
————————————————————
The sound of hoofbeats was like a pelting rain, and the Black God ran all the way towards Songjing City.
Lu Wu reached out and took out a candy, bent down and put his hand in front of Heishen's mouth.
Kurokami rolled the candy into his mouth with his tongue and snorted happily.
If an ordinary war horse were to run as fast as Black God, he would be panting rapidly even if he wasn't foaming at the mouth, and would have no energy to eat sweets.
However, for Heigami, he had only been running for less than an hour, including two stops to rest. This amount of exercise was just the level of stretching his muscles.
In a moment, Songjing City arrived.
The city gates were not closed, but there were generals guarding them.
Under normal circumstances, the gates of Songjing City are kept open all night - this is the city of the King of Wu. If the enemy army reaches here and the Wu State does not know about it, then the Wu State will also die.
However, the situation today was special. Lu Liang, the captain of the east gate of Songjing, was wearing full armor and personally led his two hundred elite men to guard the city gate.
If the five captains of Songjing outside the city rebelled and stormed the city, he only had to resist for a moment, and the winch on the city wall could be released and the thousand-jin gate could be lowered to separate the inside and outside.
Lu Liang only hoped that Lu Guang and others from the Shesheng Camp outside the city would not be too forceful and let Captain Changshui and others come to rush through the door, so that he could gain some credit.
In the future, if he could be promoted to the rank of general, he would be able to lead an army on his own and leave Songjing to kill enemies and perform meritorious deeds. It was really frustrating that he had few equals in martial arts, yet he was always guarding the gate here.
Most of Songjing's five captains are military elites transferred from various places and are good at field battles. Most of them belong to the Gongziyuan camp. Most of Songjing's six captains are from Songjing's children. They are responsible for maintaining the internal security of Songjing. Most of them are 'good' at guarding. The city is basically the camp of Young Master Jiu.
The reason why this word 'good at' is put in quotation marks is because most of the soldiers under the Sixth Captain have never actually defended the city.
Since the Wu-Chu war thirty years ago, when Wu was defeated and forced to move its capital to Songjing, Songjing had not been attacked at all.
Lu Liang, the captain of the East Gate, is only in his early twenties this year. He is nine feet tall, with broad shoulders and a thick back. His arms can swing with great strength. He is good at wielding an eighty-four-pound mountain-breaking ax. He is confident that he has the courage to do anything. Ever since I became the captain of the East Gate, I have often felt that my talents were not being appreciated.
The East Gate Captain sounds nice, but in fact he is just a gatekeeper, and at most he is also responsible for the security around the East Gate.
Lu Liang not only practiced the horizontal training of the Vajra Body to an extremely high level, but also cultivated the Qian Yang power inherited from his family to the realm of true strength, making him extremely powerful both internally and externally.
Last year, he was ranked third in the Songjing Army's military performance, second only to Tong Zhi, the deputy commander of the Jinwu Guard, and Ke Ruohua, the commander of the Feifeng Guard.
And to be honest, Tong Zhi, the deputy commander of the Jinwu Guards, cannot compare to him. He has already entered the third level of innateness and can sense the world;
But Ke Ruohua, the commander of the Feifeng Guards, is from the King Wu family and is responsible for the safety of King Wu's harem. She is also a woman, so it is difficult for him to be on the same level as her.
Many of Lu Liang's martial arts stunts require a helmet and armor, riding a horse and holding an ax to perform. Wearing civilian clothes and holding a short blade is simply useless. When the two short blades met, it was really unfair for him to lose - but the eldest man It's ugly to lose to a woman, but it would be even more ugly if you deny it.
I had no choice but to hold my nose and admit it.
