Warlords: Rise of the System
Chapter 312: The Surnames’ Request
When the dawn broke and the sky just began to turn a little pale, Lu Tianhao was still immersed in a sweet dream.
However, a burst of urgent shouting broke the silence and pulled him out of his sleep.
Li Guangjie walked into the tent in a hurry, with a serious and anxious look on his face. He respectfully reported to Lu Tianhao, who was still a little confused.
"Marshal, it's bad! A large number of people have gathered outside our military camp, and they are clamoring to see the highest commander of our army.
I have sent someone to inquire about the specific situation."
Upon hearing the news, Lu Tianhao came to his senses instantly, with a hint of surprise in his eyes.
He quickly stood up, straightened his slightly messy clothes, then nodded slightly and said to Li Guangjie.
"Well, you did a good job. Don't worry, after I wash up, I will go and see what's going on myself."
After saying that, Lu Tianhao turned and walked to the side to prepare his toiletries.
But before he finished washing, the soldier who was sent out to inquire about the situation had already hurried back to report.
It turned out that these people came here to ask for something.
This made Lu Tianhao feel very surprised. He frowned slightly and secretly guessed the purpose of the people's visit.
When he learned the truth, even he, who was usually calm and composed, was shocked.
It turned out that these people were actually begging the National Salvation Army to send troops to wipe out the warlord forces entrenched in Ganling Province, and hoped to bring Ganling Province under the jurisdiction of the National Salvation Army.
After washing up, Lu Tianhao decided to go there in person to listen to the true voices of the people.
When Li Guangjie learned that Lu Tianhao was going to meet these people in person, his face instantly became solemn and he stretched out his hand to block his way without hesitation.
"Marshal, it is too risky for you to meet these people in person!"
Li Guangjie said anxiously. "Who can guarantee that there are no enemy agents hiding among these people?
If anything happens to you, our entire National Salvation Army will be doomed!"
As he spoke, Li Guangjie took a step forward, approached Lu Tianhao, and stared at him closely, "Marshal, please think twice before you act!
Leave this matter to me. I will find out their true intentions and give you a satisfactory answer."
However, Lu Tianhao was not shaken by Li Guangjie's words.
He patted Li Guangjie's shoulder gently, smiled and said, "Guangjie, I understand your concerns.
But as a commander of an army, if he doesn’t even dare to communicate with the people face to face, how can he save the country and the people?
I trust my intuition and believe that these people will not harm me.
Moreover, only by personal contact can you understand the true situation.
Don't worry, I will handle it carefully."
After saying that, Lu Tianhao walked around Li Guangjie and walked towards the door with firm steps.
With the system accompanying Lu Tianhao, he doesn't have to worry about being assassinated by others.
Unless the opponent can approach him quietly and launch a surprise attack with cold weapons, any attempt to harm him with other weapons will be futile.
The collection function of the system can instantly absorb weapons that may endanger his life into the system space.
Moreover, Lu Tianhao himself possesses super combat ability at the level of a soldier king.
Even if the enemy dares to take the risk of approaching and engaging in close combat, the outcome is unpredictable.
After all, Lu Tianhao's skills and reaction speed are beyond the reach of ordinary people.
Seeing this situation, Li Guangjie knew very well that he was completely powerless to stop Lu Tianhao from moving forward courageously.
In desperation, he had to follow Lu Tianhao closely, staying alert at all times, ready to guard him at any time just in case.
When Lu Tianhao and Li Guangjie arrived at the tent used to receive the people, they were shocked to realize that their previous worries were completely unnecessary.
Those people who came to petition were also very cautious.
After all, they were also worried that there might be enemy agents hiding among their own people.
Even though there were hundreds of people coming this time.
But after some discussion, everyone nominated only three elderly men as representatives to meet the leaders of the National Salvation Army.
At this moment, the generals of the National Salvation Army were warmly entertaining the three old men.
As soon as Lu Tianhao entered the tent, the general of the National Salvation Army quickly introduced him to the three old men. "This is the supreme commander of our National Salvation Army - Marshal Lu!"
The three old men had already stood up to greet them.
Upon hearing that the person in front of him was the supreme commander of the National Salvation Army, his heart tightened and he became panicked in an instant, subconsciously kneeling down and kowtowed.
Seeing this, Lu Tianhao quickly stretched out his hand to stop them, and with a smile gestured to the three old men to sit down and continue the conversation.
The three old men were as pale as paper, their legs were shaking, and they sat down slowly and tremblingly like candles in the wind.
Their bodies were tense, their hands unconsciously gripped the armrests of the seats, beads of sweat the size of beans kept rolling down their foreheads, their eyes were wandering, and they looked extremely nervous.
For a moment, the whole room fell into a suffocating silence, and no one spoke first.
At this time, Lu Tianhao smiled and broke the silence in a calm tone, "I wonder why the three elders came to look for me today?"
His gaze fell on the three people, and there was a hint of gentleness and curiosity in his eyes.
However, despite his calmness.
But these three old men were still too nervous to speak. Their lips only trembled slightly, as if they wanted to say something, but they swallowed the words back when they reached their lips.
Li Guangjie stood at one side, cleared his throat and said, "If you three have any needs or ideas, just speak up.
If you keep silent now, after the Marshal leaves this place, if you want to express your feelings, you may have to travel a long way to the Marshal's mansion of the National Salvation Army to beg for help. "
Li Guangjie's words really worked. The oldest man among the three slowly opened his mouth and spoke sincerely.
"Marshal, we have long heard among the people that the National Salvation Army treats the people like family and shows great care.
When we learned that it was your army that was fighting against the Ma family army from Ganling Province here, we were extremely excited!
Therefore, we have come here this time to ask you, the Marshal, to have mercy and expel the Ma family army so that we can also have the honor of becoming the people under the protection of the National Salvation Army.
It is true that under the brutal rule of the Ma family army, we ordinary people have a miserable life and there is no way out at all! "
After saying this, the old man was already in tears, and the other two old men also joined in the plea.
"Please, Marshal, please be kind and save us, the desperate people!"
Lu Tianhao was originally a little hesitant and had not yet made up his mind.
Hearing the three old men pleading with tears in their eyes, he had already made a preliminary decision in his heart.
