Treacherous ministers have deep routines

Wu Yan pulled Lu Jinyu out of the tent all the way, and walked forward quickly.

Lu Jinyu didn't know what he was going to do, the two of them walked a long way, and came to a place where no one was around, because Wu Yan's hand was strong, and he didn't pay attention just now, Lu Jinyu was grabbed by his arm, hurting There was a "hiss..." sound.

Wu Yan was so frightened that he quickly let go of his hand and said, "What's wrong? Does the wound hurt again? It's all my fault."

A few days ago, Wu Yan's team was in full swing and beat Chen Zhonglu back again and again, but unexpectedly, Chen Zhonglu found a team of dead soldiers to attack. At that time, Lu Jinyu helped Wu Yan resist a cold arrow, so he was injured and his arm was dislocated up.

Later, I was injured again on the battlefield, and my arm began to dislocate habitually. Whenever it was cloudy and rainy, it would hurt badly.

Wu Yan knew that Lu Jinyu had this problem, so he looked at Lu Jinyu nervously in fright.

Lu Jinyu stretched her wrist and said, "It's nothing, what's the eldest son?"

When Wu Yan heard this, he faltered and hesitated immediately. He was so decisive on the battlefield, but now he suddenly babbled and said, "I... that... Actually, I... I didn't..."

Lu Jinyu looked at Wu Yan lightly, squinted his eyes, as if he was not in a hurry, so Wu Yan kept hemming and hawing, wanting to see when he could speak clearly.

Wu Yan was sweating all over his head in anxiety, scratched the back of his head, and said suddenly: "Oh... oh yes, I... I want to ask you, how many empty houses are there in the camp, which are more comfortable than living in tents?" Some, do you want... Do you want to move in."

Lu Jinyu: "..."

Lu Jinyu didn't expect Wu Yan to be talking about this matter after holding back for a long time?

It was not a matter of a day or two for them to fight Chen Zhonglu. They had already built houses in the camp, but the number of houses was limited, so most of the soldiers still lived in tents.

Wu Yan originally dragged Lu Jinyu out because of the taste, but he didn't dare to speak out when the words came to an end, and he was bored by himself.

Lu Jinyu looked at Wu Yan indifferently, and said, "Thank you, Mr. Eldest, for your kindness, then respect is worse than obedience."

After saying that, Lu Jinyu turned and left.

Wu Yan: "..."

Wu Yan looked at Lu Jinyu's back, sighed deeply, slapped his cheek, and said in a low voice, "Wu Yan! Wu Yan, what are you doing, say it, say it..."

Wu Yan was talking to himself, scratching his hair vigorously, and said, "But...but I can't say it! What should I do..."

Wu Yan scratched his hair in a mess, and hurried to catch up, saying, "Jinyu, let's go together..."

Before Wu Yan finished speaking, Lu Jinyu had already said, "You don't need to send the eldest son off, Jinyu will go back to her room by herself."

That's all, just leave.

Wu Yan watched Lu Jinyu walk away slowly, and immediately sighed "Ah—" and squatted on the ground, hugging his head that was rubbed like a chicken coop.

After Wei Man and Lin Rang stayed in the bed, they came out to see what was going on, but they didn't know that the male god's loyal dog was squatting on the ground.

Wei Man whispered: "Where is this loyal dog of a male god? Is this a loyal dog who was defeated?"

Lin Rang: "..."

Wu Yan squatted on the ground with his head in his arms, he didn't hear Wei Man's words at all, and he still sighed.

The two walked over, and Wei Man smiled and said, "Young General Wu, what's going on?"

Upon hearing this, Wu Yan quickly stood up, scratched his already messy hair, and said, "No, nothing..."

Wei Man thought to himself, why is this nothing?At first glance, I thought it was a defeated loyal dog, but now, at most, it is a defeated rooster.

After Wu Yan said nothing, he felt a little regretful, looking at Wei Man and Lin Rang, hesitant to talk.

Wei Man was almost suffocated by him, and said, "Young General Wu, what's the matter?"

Wu Yan held back for a while, and finally said: "Wei Gong, the governor, this... I seem to have displeased Jinyu just now, what should I do?"

Wei Man asked strangely, "What did you say that was too much?"

Lu Jinyu seems to be very seldom angry, he looks like he has no temper, but in fact he has a big temper, it's just that he doesn't get angry with people who are born with him, and there are very few people who can make him angry.

Wei Man was a little curious for a while, but Wu Yan said, "I... I just asked him if he wants to move from the tent to the house."

Wei Man was stunned for a while, then said, "Just... it's over?"

Wu Yan nodded.

Wei Man: "..."

Wei Man put his hands on his hips and said, "No, just now Young Master Wu hurriedly dragged him away, just saying... such a thing?"

Wu Yan nodded again, obviously tall, but the expression on his face was quite aggrieved, like a erha being trained.

Wu Yan said: "After hearing this, Jinyu... seemed a little unhappy, so she left."

Wei Man wiped his face, and Lin Rang made it like this. Wu Yan rushed over murderously, not to confess, but asked Lu Jinyu if he wanted to live in the house. No matter how good-tempered Lu Jinyu is, he probably Is it going to explode?

Wei Man whispered to Lin Rang, "I think Wu Yan is hopeless."

Lin Rang's eyes moved, and when he walked out of the tent just now, he happened to see Lu Jinyu's back.

Although Lu Jinyu is not a clean freak, he loves cleanliness very much. Just now when he walked over, he ordered the servants to boil some hot water and bring them there, probably to take a bath.

Lin Rang's cold eyes moved slightly, as if he had thought of some good idea, he narrowed his eyes and gave a "sinister" smile.

Seeing Lin Rang's appearance, Wei Man also squinted his eyes, only thinking that Wu Yan might suffer...

Wu Yan started rubbing his hair again, making it look like a lunatic, snoring back and forth, and said, "What... what to do, this... Jinyu is angry, will you ignore me?"

Lin Rang suddenly said coldly: "Young General Wu, I have a way to make Mr. Lu not angry, and to reconcile with Young General Wu..."

Reconciled?

Wu Yan always felt that this word was used strangely, but now he didn't care about it so much, so he nodded quickly and said, "Okay, okay, I have to ask the governor of Luzhou!"

Lin Rang smiled again, Wu Yan looked like a big dog, and he didn't notice Lin Rang's sinister smile at all!

Wei Man, on the other hand, mourned Wu Yan silently in his heart, wondering what kind of scary method Lin Rang had come up with...

Lin Rang said slowly, "Young General Wu might as well... plead guilty."

"Another pleading guilty?!"

Wei Man didn't pay attention and said it directly.

Wu Yan blinked, as if he didn't know the "allusion" of pleading guilty, and it wasn't that he didn't know this allusion, he knew it was about Lian Po and Lin Xiangru, but he didn't know why Wei Man was so surprised.

Wu Yan thought about it, if he did something wrong, he would take the blame, that would really be the best way!

Wu Yan immediately clapped his hands and said, "Yes, if I go to apologize, wouldn't I be very sincere?"

Lin Rang nodded calmly without blushing, and said, "That's right."

Wei Man: "..." That's right, there are ghosts. The person who pleaded guilty last time was Xia Yuanyun, and Lin Rang made him miserable.

Wu Yan hurriedly said: "Thank you, the governor, I think it is very good to take the blame!"

Lin Rang nodded and said, "Let's go now, please forgive me while it's hot."

"Yes Yes!"

After Wu Yan finished speaking, he hurried to find Jing Tiao.

Wei Man looked at Wu Yan's back as he ran away, and said, "Lin Rang, you're really trying to match them up, aren't you breaking them up?"

Lin Rang said lightly: "Does Duke Wei not believe in Rang?"

Wei Man thought, I just believe in your destructive power too much!

Lin Rang asked Wu Yan to take the thorns to plead guilty, and he had to supervise himself before it was over, and soon saw Wu Yan walking out with the thorns on his back, but his clothes were neat and spotless.

Lin Rang said very calmly: "Young General Wu, do you know what is the essence of pleading guilty?"

Wu Yan thought for a while, and said sincerely, "Sincerely!"

Wei Man: "..."

Lin Rang shook his head and said, "It hurts so much."

"what?"

Wu Yan was a little dazed immediately, and looked at Lin Rang with a confused face.

Lin Rang said: "If the wattle is hit on the clothes, does it mean that there is no sincerity? It's not like hitting the flesh."

Hearing Lin Rang's "fudge", Wu Yan suddenly felt that what he said was very correct!

This is to plead guilty, do you still care about the pain?It is also right to suffer a little bit of flesh and blood.

Wu Yan is shirtless, carrying thorns on his back, and is ready.

Lin Rang looked Wu Yan up and down, nodded, and seemed to be very satisfied. After all, he wanted to be a good match with the male god. If he was not good-looking, it would be bad.

Apparently Wu Yan has already been recognized by Lin Rang, the "little fan", and Wei Man on the other side is so jealous that he is about to vomit bitterness.

Wu Yan carried the wattle again, and Lin Rang said, "Go."

Wu Yan nodded and went to knock on the door.

"Knock knock knock!"

Lu Jinyu's voice did not come from inside, and said, "Who is it?"

"Jinyu, it's me."

Wu Yan answered the door and said, "I have something to tell you."

Lu Jinyu's muffled voice came out from the door, saying, "Young master? Jinyu is taking a bath, please come later."

When Wu Yan heard that Lu Jinyu was taking a bath, he wanted to turn around and leave.

Unexpectedly, Lin Rang immediately said sternly: "No."

"No?"

Wu Yan asked strangely, "Why not?"

Lin Rang said: "After hearing this, I know that Young Master Lu doesn't want to see Young General Wu, so he excused him by taking a bath to prevaricate Young General Wu. If the young general turns around and leaves like this, he may miss the best opportunity to plead guilty."

The one who pleads guilty... the best, best, good, opportunity!

Wei Man's eyelids twitched, isn't that just a bath?Just now they all heard that Lu Jinyu called the servant to fetch water, saying that he wanted to take a bath, so Lu Jinyu must be taking a bath now.

Lin Rang insisted on asking Wu Yan to go in at this time, and he must have no good intentions, and he also said that "the sky is full of hype".

Wu Yan is also sincere, especially when it comes to feelings. Hearing what Lin Rang said, he thought it was the same. What if Lu Jinyu was angry and didn't want to see her, so what if she deliberately prevaricated?

Wu Yan said: "Then... what should I do now?"

Lin Rang was already calm, and he didn't seem to be playing tricks at all, and said: "Naturally, I just open the door and go in to plead guilty. The key to pleading guilty is to be quick, precise and ruthless. Apologizing first and being sincere is enough."

When Wu Yan heard it, it made sense, he nodded quickly and said, "Okay, I'll go now."

As he spoke, he gently pushed open the door of the house and walked in.

Seeing him walk in, Wei Man said to Lin Rang, "Lin Rang, you..."

Before he finished his words, Lin Rang actually had even more coquettish tricks!

Lin Rang suddenly took out a big lock from his arms like a magic trick, and as soon as Wu Yan entered, he wrapped the door twice, and snapped the big lock with a click.

Locked the door of the house from the outside, so that even if Wu Yan found something and wanted to avoid it, he couldn't get out of the house.

In order to be safe, Lin Rang did the same thing and locked the windows.

Wei Man: "..." The most poisonous Lin gave up his heart, he was so vicious!

After Lin Rang finished locking the windows and doors, he clapped his hands and waved to Wei Man, "Let's go."

Wei Man hurriedly followed, and said uncertainly, "Lin Rang, is this really all right?"

Lin Rang said calmly, "What's the problem?"

Wei Man thought for a while and said, "This...isn't it a little too intense?"

Lin Rang blinked, and said calmly, "Shouldn't the matchmaking be more intense?"

Wei Man: "..." It makes sense, and if Lu Jinyu, the biggest rival in love, can be dealt with smoothly, and he can get rid of it once and for all, wouldn't everyone be happy?

Wu Yan didn't know that he was being insidious by Lin Rang at all, he walked into the house, it was a little dark inside, and the lights were not on, he went around the screen and took a look, he could not help but take a deep breath.

Wu Yan closed his eyes in fright, and quickly said, "I'm sorry, I'm sorry."

Lu Jinyu was surprised that Wu Yan came in, even more surprised but...

Wu Yan's attire is beyond words...

Lu Jinyu said, "Why did the eldest son come in? Didn't he say to wait for a while?"

With his back on his back, Wu Yan hesitated and said: "I... I thought you were angry and didn't want to see me, prevarication, so I wanted to come in and apologize to you..."

Lu Jinyu was a little helpless, she was indeed "angry", because Wu Yan dragged her out in a hurry, but in the end she didn't say anything, just talked about the house, how could Lu Jinyu not be angry?

Wu Yan coughed, always feeling restless, and said, "I...I'll go out and wait for you!"

As he said, he rushed to the door of the house in one step, and opened the door...

"Bang!"

"Bang bang bang!"

"Bangdang-!"

Lu Jinyu inside, because she couldn't see the situation, thought that Wu Yan had bumped into something, so she hurried out and said, "Eldest Princess, are you okay?"

Wu Yan is busy, and very busy!

Standing at the door of the room with the thorns on his back, he pulled the door hard twice, but it didn't open at all. There was still the sound of chains outside, and he went to pull the window again, and the window did the same thing, obviously it was locked from the outside.

"Bang bang bang!"

Wu Yan was a little bit about to cry, his head drooping, and he always felt that something was wrong, but it seemed that something was wrong now, it seemed a bit late.

Lu Jinyu came out and stood in front of Wu Yan, the dim light was projected on Lu Jinyu's flawless white face, as if she had descended into the mortal world like a celestial being.

"Gudu..."

Wu Yan swallowed subconsciously, and murmured, "You...you are so pretty."

Lu Jinyu didn't expect him to say that suddenly, she was a little dazed, and then said lightly: "Then a few times before, the eldest son suddenly kissed Jinyu because Jinyu was good-looking?"

Wu Yan seemed to be bewitched, nodded Man Man, and said, "It's pretty..."

Lu Jinyu's face drooped in an instant, "Shua!"

When Wu Yan saw his expression, his heart skipped a beat, and he suddenly remembered that he might have committed a capital crime, because Lu Jinyu hated people saying that he had a good-looking face the most.

Lu Jinyu said coldly, "So the eldest son also took a fancy to Jinyu's color?"

Wu Yan quickly waved his hand and said, "No, no, no, no, Jinyu...I..."

When he said this, Lu Jinyu said in a cold voice: "Young master, please go back. Jinyu has traveled a long distance and is a little tired. She wants to rest."

Wu Yan hurried over, not caring about anything else, and said loudly anxiously: "I kiss you, naturally I fall in love with you, not just because of your appearance, Jinyu, you must listen to my explanation!"

After Wu Yan yelled loudly, he suddenly froze, because...

Because Lu Jinyu's ears were slightly red.

Wu Yan looked down, only to realize later, did he just yell and confess?

This……

This is a little tricky.

Wei Man and Lin Rang hadn't gone far when they heard Wu Yan's roar that could shake the entire barracks. Wei Man was shocked and said, "Is this all right?!"

Lin Rang smiled lightly and said, "Finally I can sleep well."

Wei Man came to Huaizhong in person, preparing for the final battle with Chen Zhonglu.

Chen Zhonglu has been surrounded by the army in the "imperial city", that is, the city where he ascended the throne. Wei Man's soldiers are everywhere, and the soldiers of the coalition army are like iron walls.

In this way, as long as time goes by, there is no need to use force at all, and Chen Zhonglu will have to surrender because his troops are out of food.

It can be said that Chen Zhonglu has reached the extreme, no matter whether it is forward or backward, there is no way out.

Wei Man decided, on this basis, to put pressure on Chen Zhonglu at the same time, rectify the soldiers and horses, approach the city, and call for battle in person.

We must know that Wei Man is the leader of the coalition army, and he is also the hussar general of the imperial court. rout.

Wei Man gathered all his troops and drove to the "imperial city" on Chen Zhong Road.

"It's not good! It's not good - the master! The master's big thing is not good!"

Huaizhong soldiers rushed into the "Imperial Palace" and shouted: "Master! It's not good! It's not good!"

Sitting in the palace, Chen Zhonglu said, "Why are you yelling!?"

The soldier hurriedly said: "Wei Man! Wei...Wei Man!! Wei Man and the coalition army are already approaching the city!!"

"what!?"

Chen Zhonglu almost fell off the dragon chair, his head crooked in fright, and said, "Wei Man is here?!"

"It's true! It's true!"

The soldier said: "My lord, how can this be good?! Wei Man has come, brought a lot of soldiers and horses, and personally called for battle! The imperial city has been surrounded, and now Wei Man is calling for battle, and the army is in panic!"

Chen Zhonglu's face was pale, with cold sweat on his head, and said: "No... no, why hasn't Chen Ji's reply come yet? Now that Chen Ji hasn't replied, I have to hold on for a while, and we can't let Wei Man call in..."

"correct!"

Chen Zhonglu's eyes lit up, and he said loudly, "Come on! Come on! I have important orders!"

Wei Man's army lined up outside the city in a mighty order. Wei Man rode on a peerless horse. He was dressed in a black jacket and held a heavenly sword in his hand. He looked majestic and capable of killing.

Standing in the wind of late spring, Wei Man always felt a fiery and strange gaze staring at him, as if he could penetrate his inner body and stab in!

Wei Man looked back and saw Lin Rang.

Lin Rang stared at Wei Man quietly, his eyes were very sharp and sharp, with an indescribable strangeness.

Wei Man's scalp was numb, and he said in a low voice: "Why are you looking at Gu like this? Could it be that you are fascinated by Gu's handsome and heroic?"

Lin Rang didn't speak, but nodded calmly.

"Bang bang!"

Wei Man's heart beat violently, his brain was congested with blood, and he wanted to punish Lin Rang severely, but now was not the time, and he whispered viciously: "When you go back, I will teach you a good lesson when I go back alone."

Lin Rang didn't show any fear, and said frankly, "Okay."

At this moment, an extra person suddenly appeared above the city gate.

Looks like a schemer.

The counselor trotted up from the bottom of the city gate, and shouted to the outside of the city gate: "Wei Gong!! Wei Gong! Our Lord has a message to Wei Gong!"

Wei Man sneered and said? : "The master? What master? Who is the master? Isn't there only one master in this world? What is your master?"

The counselor choked for a moment, but because he was entrusted by Chen Zhonglu to ask for peace, not to start a war, it was not easy to challenge him.

Then he bit the bullet and said, "Duke Wei, we... our lord, have something to pass on to Duke Wei."

Wei Man said in a cold voice, "But you're going to start a war? How dare you!"

"No no no, no!"

The counselor said again: "We... our lord has said that he is willing to grant his will to Duke Wei. As long as Duke Wei is willing to stop fighting, our lord is willing to submit to Duke Wei and regard Duke Wei as... the Son of Heaven!"

As soon as he said this, the coalition forces immediately went into an uproar.

"The Son of Heaven?"

"Chen Zhonglu wants to give his title of emperor to Duke Wei?"

"Is this a thought trap?"

"It must be! Why did Chen Zhonglu suddenly surrender?"

Everyone was whispering, but because there were too many people talking, there was chaos outside the city gate.

Lin Rang glanced at Wei Man, and said lightly, "Can Mr. Wei be moved?"

To be honest, Wei Man was really—— heartbroken!

Wei Man is not a loyal minister, but a hero.

In fact, like many heroes in history, Duke Huan of Qi, the leader of the Five Overlords in the Spring and Autumn Period, has been thinking about being king all his life, but in the end, he just dominates the princes and becomes the uncrowned emperor.

Wei Man, like Duke Huan of Qi, also pursued how to become the emperor all his life, but they are also pragmatic people, unlike Chen Zhonglu, who arrogated the emperor and caused public anger. The big move eventually caused countless disasters and became the target of public criticism.

Therefore, although Wei Man is very excited to become the Son of Heaven, Wei Man's reason is still there.

Wei Man smiled at Lin Rang, and said frivolously, "Without you, I can make Gu Xin move."

Lin Rang chuckled and said, "Really."

After Wei Man and Lin Rang finished teasing, they put on a cold and stern face, and said to the counselors on the tower: "Chen Zhonglu usurped the emperor, which is disgusting, and now he wants to give the name he stole to others. , this approach is even more despicable!"

With Wei Man's opening remarks, he cut off the counselor in one gulp.

The coalition forces present fell silent for an instant.

You know, not everyone can refuse the title of Son of Heaven immediately, and the rejection is so decisive.

Just like Chen Ji.

In the eyes of the common people, Chen Ji can be said to be an upright gentleman, with a style of refined gentleman, and even loves the people like a son. Not only the common people love him, but even the local heroes will take refuge in him.

But Chen Ji couldn't refuse the title of emperor.

At that time, Chen Zhonglu wrote to Chen Ji, and Chen Ji took the initiative to ask Chen Zhonglu to give up the title of emperor, and wanted to add a yellow robe.

It's just that Chen Ji's letter was intercepted by Wei Man, and he never took it out, so Chen Zhonglu didn't know that Chen Ji had agreed to rescue him.

Even Chen Ji couldn't resist such a temptation, let alone other people.

But Wei Man refused straight away, even so decisively.

Wei Man is indeed a greedy person, but he knows how to be greedy, so he can be greedy even more. If he asks for it now, his time will probably be short...

Wei Man struck while the iron was hot and said: "Gu is a member of the Wu family, the master is wise, loves the people, Chen Zhonglu is arrogant, how can he be compared with the emperor?! Go back and tell your lord, don't think about these dirty tricks again, if If you have the ability, then fight with dignity!"

As Wei Man spoke, he raised his hand, and Jiang Duting behind him immediately bent his bow and set an arrow, aiming at the counselor.

When the counselor saw it, his face was pale with fright, and he quickly hid under the pile of the gate tower, and ran away in a hurry, fleeing for his life.

Wei Man rejected Chen Zhonglu. As a result, the coalition forces quickly bowed their hands and said, "The lord is wise! The Son of Heaven is ten thousand years old!"

"The lord of the alliance is wise, and the emperor will last forever!"

Wei Man looked at these generals who "bowed their heads and proclaimed their ministers" to him, although he was a little unwilling in his heart, but he also felt a little comforted.

Wei Man and the allied army guarded until dusk, and there was no sound. Chen Zhonglu shut the door and did not fight, presumably he was preparing to resist passively.

Everyone returned to the camp from the city gate. After ten days in a row, the weather in late spring had turned hot, and one could almost feel the scorching heat of summer.

Wei Man still went to call the formation in person every day, and came back after dusk.

If the original text came to report, he said: "My lord, the spies have reported back. The city of Huaizhong is in chaos, the morale of the army is scattered, and there is no morale to speak of. It only takes time for the entire Huaizhong to be destroyed by itself."

Wei Man smiled and said, "Okay, very good!"

At this moment, Yuan You hurried in from the outside, with sweat on his face, he folded his hands and said, "My lord, Chen Zhonglu ordered a sneak attack!"

"what?"

Wei Man narrowed his eyes and said, "Chen Zhonglu sent troops?"

Yuan You said skillfully, "It's absolutely true!"

At this moment, the curtain of the battalion commander of the shogunate was quickly opened, and generals such as Lin Rang, Jiang Duting, Xia Yuanyun, Ying Ziyun, etc. all walked in from the outside.

Lin Rang said: "It's true. The gates of Huaizhong City were opened wide, and many soldiers poured out. The soldiers from Chen Zhonglu seemed to want to mobilize in full force."

Just as Lin Rang was speaking, the coalition forces also ran in, and a large number of generals and generals heard the news of Chen Zhonglu's dispatch of troops.

Yang Yue, the prefect of Wuhan, rushed in and said anxiously: "Leader, Chen Zhonglu sent troops, we should also send troops to resist, why don't we let them see how powerful we are! The humble general is willing to be the vanguard!"

Yang Yue has a dignified appearance and a powerful tone, looking very heroic.

However, anyone who is familiar with Yang Yue knows that Yang Yue likes to be greedy for petty gains. Although he is more than brave, he will never be a pioneer in this kind of thing.

But now Yang Yue suddenly proposed to fight first, among them...

There must be fraud!

This deceit is actually very simple. Today's Chen Zhonglu is at the end of his strength, and Yang Yue led his troops to fight the vanguard, and he must have gained the most military exploits.

The soldiers in Huaizhong were scattered, with no military spirit at all, and they were almost self-defeating. At this time, all the troops were dispatched, and it was already the last one to die. Yang Yue was not afraid of them at all, but was eager to grab credit, so he naturally wanted to be the first to stand out.

Not only Yang Yue, but other generals also stood up, wanting to fight the vanguard and clean up the mess.

"Duke Wei, please send your general to go!"

"The humble general will definitely capture Chen Zhonglu alive!"

"Duke Wei, send the humble general to go, the humble general is familiar with this terrain, and the humble general will definitely fulfill his mission!"

Lin Rang narrowed his eyes.

Wei Man didn't speak for a while, but seeing Lin Rang squinting his eyes, he said, "What doubts does the governor of Luzhou have?"

Lin Rang arched his hands, and said flatly: "Wei Gong, Chen Zhonglu is out in full force, I'm afraid it's deceitful."

Everyone looked at Lin Rang, waiting for Lin Rang to speak.

In fact, Lin Rang felt that Chen Zhonglu was cheating, and there were several doubts.

First, Chen Zhonglu didn't send troops early or late, he had already exhausted his efforts, and now he came to send troops. The morale of the army has been wiped out, so how can we fight?

Second, Chen Zhonglu was not a reckless person, because he was more afraid of death than Chen Jilai, so why did he suddenly go all out?

Third, if it is said that Wei Man rejected Chen Zhonglu's title of emperor, so Chen Zhonglu was angry and sent troops, then it should have happened ten days ago. Now that this matter has been settled for so long, he came to send troops. Isn't this reaction too slow? ?

There is another important reason. Lin Rang is a "prophet". Chen Zhonglu did not fight recklessly in his own trajectory, but prepared to join Zhao Lan, who had fallen into a bandit. But obviously, Zhao Lan is no longer here, so Lin Rang felt that Chen Zhonglu probably wanted to run away.

"Escape?"

Wei Man narrowed his eyes and said, "You said Chen Zhonglu wanted to run away?"

Lin Rang nodded and said, "It's likely that the tiger was diverted away from the mountain, and the sound of the east hit the west."

Chen Zhonglu faction has no chance of winning if they don't send soldiers. Logically speaking, if he keeps his soldiers and horses, he will still hold some bargaining chips after the negotiation, but now Chen Zhonglu is doing the opposite and suddenly sends soldiers. Even the hole cards for negotiation are gone.

What else can you do if you tear up your own cards?Of course, he covered himself and escaped.

Wei Man pondered for a while, and said: "Everyone, please be safe and don't be impatient. This matter needs to be discussed in the long run. The governor of Luzhou will stay, and the others can withdraw."

When everyone heard it, isn't this "chasing off customers"?Only the governor of Luzhou was left alone. I'm afraid they are going to plot something.

But it's hard for everyone to say, after all, Wei Man is the leader of the coalition army and the general of hussars, no one dared to be stubborn, and quickly withdrew.

Wei Man left Lin Rang behind and said, "According to what you mean? Don't you want to resist the army?"

Lin Rang said lightly: "The army still has to resist, but Chen Zhonglu must not be in the army. They have no leader and are scattered and vulnerable. Duke Wei can send anyone at will. Of course... this person must be Duke Wei's confidant, After all, the credit for defeating Chen Zhonglu must be his."

Wei Man nodded, thought for a while, and said, "Gu... is going to send Yuan Yun to fight."

Lin Rang had already expected that Xia Yuanyun was the founding hero of the Wei family. Although Xia Yuanyun did not have much military exploits and seemed to have lost several battles, Xia Yuanyun's status was far higher than that of Lin Rang. The male god Ying Ziyun, why is this?

First, Xia Yuanyun is Wei Man's younger brother, and Wei Man trusts him very much.

Second, Xia Yuanyun's loyalty to Wei Man is not out of loyalty, but a loyalty of desperation. To put it bluntly, it is a bit stupid.

And compared to Ying Ziyun?Ying Ziyun is a Confucian general, so it cannot be said that he is not loyal, but Ying Ziyun's loyalty lies in the word "loyalty". As a lord, how can Wei Man achieve the word "loyalty" everywhere?

It's not that Wei Man intends to suppress Ying Ziyun and elevate his younger brother, but Wei Man wants to use his strength on the blade.

Xia Yuanyun didn't have many meritorious deeds, he just relied on his seniority. If Wei Man can pave the way for him this time, it will surely help Xia Yuanyun in the future.

This can be said to be heartbreaking for Wei Man, he is obviously the elder brother, yet he has the illusion of being a father...

Lin Rang understood Wei Man's thoughts, Wei Man just wanted to put Ying Ziyun in the right place.

Lin Rang nodded, and said: "If someone is going to deal with Chen Zhonglu's army, then someone should go around and lay down the nets, and wait quietly for Chen Zhonglu to take the bait."

Wei Man frowned and said, "Jiang Duting is in charge of the east gate, Zhao Dian is in charge of the west gate, Ying Ziyun is in charge of the upper north gate, and Sima Bogui is in charge of the lower south gate."

Wei Man immediately recruited four generals, these four were outstanding in martial arts and courageous, guarding the four directions of east, west, north and south, it was hard to believe that Chen Zhonglu could still escape!

Wei Man gave an order, and all the people mobilized, quickly mobilized troops, spread out in all directions, and followed Chen Zhonglu's trail.

After everyone dispatched, Wei Man personally sat in the shogunate army, waiting for news from everyone.

Lin Rang was at the side, with a leisurely look, fiddling with his acupuncture pharmacopoeia, while reading a book, he took out acupuncture and gestured on his body, as if he wanted to find acupuncture points.

Wei Man looked at him gesturing to him, always worried. After all, Lin Rang's acupuncture technique really made him "blind" to a layman, but he never dared to say it to Lin Rangming.

Lin Rang gestured to himself, Wei Manti was worried about Chen Zhonglu's affairs, and also worried about Lin Rang's needle.

He simply walked over, took off Lin Rang's needle, put it aside, put it back into the cloth bag for him, and rolled it up carefully.

Lin Rang looked at his actions, raised his eyebrows, and said, "Duke Wei, don't worry too much."

Wei Man smiled and said, "How do you know that Gu is worried?"

Lin Rang said indifferently: "Of course you can see it, isn't it obvious?"

In this world, the person who knows Wei Man best is not his late father, nor his late brother, but... Lin Rang.

Wei Man took Lin Rang's hand and said, "Gu is indeed a little worried. Whether or not Chen Zhonglu can be defeated is all in one fell swoop."

Lin Rang said lightly: "Chen Zhonglu has a bright future, but he insists on dying. It's going to rain, and his mother is going to get married. No one can stop this. Wei Gong just needs to reap the benefits of being a fisherman."

Wei Man couldn't help laughing, after all, Lin Rang's metaphor was really funny, and it eased his nervousness a bit.

Wei Man said: "Then tell me, who can catch Chen Zhonglu in these four city gates?"

Lin Rang thought for a while and said, "Chen Zhonglu's only way out now is to go to Chen Ji for help, and he must go to Yanzhou."

They are currently in Huaizhong, so either the east gate or the north gate are possible.

Lin Rang said: "But... maybe there are flaws."

Wei Man said in surprise, "A mistake?"

Lin Rang nodded and said, "Maybe Rang guessed wrong, or maybe Chen Zhonglu did the opposite, no one can say for sure."

Wei Man said with a smile: "No, Lin Rang from the lonely family will never guess wrong. Even if he guesses wrong, he must be right."

When Lin Rang heard this, he nodded solemnly and said, "What Duke Wei said is true."

The army started to move at dusk, and the sky was already getting dark. After summer, it was getting dark and the sky was about to sink into darkness. Xia Yuanyun lived up to expectations and beat the Huaizhong army to pieces.

Lin Rang expected that Chen Zhonglu escaped and did not sit in the army.

But there is still no movement in the four directions of southeast, northwest.

Wei Man was walking back and forth impatiently in the shogunate, at this moment, Wu Yan suddenly trotted in from outside, shouting: "My lord, Chen Zhonglu has been caught!"

Wei Man immediately showed joy on his face, and said, "Very good! Which city gate?"

Wu Yan's expression was a little stiff, and he said, "This...is not a city gate, but...it's..."

Wei Man was very surprised, it wasn't Ying Ziyun or Jiang Duting who caught Che Zhonglu, who could it be?

Lu Jinyu walked in from behind and said calmly, "It's Wude."

"Wu De?!"

Wei Man was even more taken aback, while Lin Rang remained calm. Although he was a little surprised, he felt it was reasonable.

Wu De, but in the future
