The garrison troops lined up to get porridge, and the surrounding area was noisy.
Lu Heng's back was stiff and half of his body was numb.
He slowly turned around, saw the bearded man clearly, and said with a smile: "Brother, I'm new here and don't know the rules, please don't be offended."
The bearded man stared with his eyes wide open, looking scary.
Lu Heng was thinking about how to get out.
The bearded man grinned and patted his shoulder again, wishing he could pat him into the dirt.
Lu Heng grimaced in pain, and then he heard the bearded man say, "Is there really no one left in the capital? Are all these chicken-like bodies being captured and sent to serve as soldiers?"
As soon as the bearded man loosened his grip, Lu Heng thought he could slip away.
Unexpectedly, the bearded man did not play by the rules.
He said, "I guess you are a scholar. You will die if you go to the battlefield. Stay in the Fire Head Camp and keep the fire."
...
...
Without waiting for Lu Heng to speak, he grabbed Lu Heng's collar and walked quickly into the Huotou Camp.
Lu Heng couldn't figure out what he was going to do, so he could only go along with him to avoid causing any other trouble.
What's more, he not only found people in the Huotouying, but also used poison when all else failed, which made the 200,000-strong army helpless and captured Zhang Ge Lao and the third prince alive.
The bearded man walked faster and faster, and Lu Heng's face turned red. He quickened his pace without noticing so that he could breathe.
The two men came to a woodshed and the bearded man pushed hard.
"Okay, you stay here."
With a bang, the door of the woodshed was closed.
For the first time, Lu Heng realized that ideals are full of hope, but reality is very skinny.
He looked around. The woodshed was very large, filled with large and small pieces of dry firewood, as well as various sundries.
The garrison had only been in the valley for less than a month, but they had prepared so much firewood and even a wooden house and woodshed.
It seems that Lord Zhang's plan had probably been prepared before the Crown Prince left the capital.
The bearded man closed the door and ordered, "You two keep an eye on him and let him do the work."
Lu Heng originally thought that the door was locked. He tried to open it, but he didn't expect the wooden door to open slowly and there was no one outside.
He stepped out of the woodshed and was stopped after taking a few steps.
"Where are you going?"
Lu Heng turned around slowly and saw two people walking towards him, looking very similar.
Lu Heng said: "I'm hungry, I want another bowl of porridge."
All three of them pretended to be ignorant even though they knew the truth, and Lu Heng was an expert at this.
The person who just called Lu Heng asked: "What's your name?"
"Huang Yanshun."
Soon, Lu Heng had a bowl of porridge in his hand.
After the three of them talked about this and that, Lu Heng finally figured out the situation: the two were twins.
The older brother is named Hang Daji and the younger brother is named Hang Dali.
After drinking a bowl of porridge, Lu Heng began to explain his purpose.
He said, "I'm here to see General Wei."
The two brothers were visibly stunned and stared at each other for a moment.
Hang Daji chuckled: "Didn't Wei Benshu die a long time ago?"
Lu Heng pretended to be unaware, looking confused and scared, and spoke after a long while: "Brother Daji, are you telling the truth?"
The brothers, not realizing he was acting, responded.
Lu Heng acted even more enthusiastically.
"It's over. Dajing is really finished now."
He put down the bowl and wanted to leave, but was stopped by the two brothers.
Hang Daji came back, with a big beard, walked into the room, and sat down in front of the eight-immortal table with a majestic posture.
He looked at Lu Heng and asked, "Why are you looking for General Wei?"
Lu Heng sighed: “General Wei is gone, there is nothing to say.
The world no longer has the surname Xiao. ”
As he said the second half of the sentence, the bearded man spilled half of the teacup as soon as he picked it up.
The bearded man widened his eyes: "What did you say?"
…
Camp outside Beijing, the commander-in-chief’s tent.
“Your Highness, General Shen returns triumphantly.”
Lu Chen's voice came from far away, and his joy was beyond words.
Xiao Jingzhou put down his pen and walked out of the tent quickly.
Outside the camp, a long army of 50,000 soldiers stretched out, with Chen Lan riding a big horse, looking high-spirited.
Shen Lan turned over and got off the horse, frowning as soon as his feet touched the ground.
Xiao Jingzhou then realized that his face looked wrong: "Wen Shao, what's wrong with you?"
Shen Lan whispered: "It's just a minor injury, it's nothing serious."
Xiao Jingzhou called Lu Chen over and said, "We are going to reward the troops tonight. Have someone prepare something."
Lu Chen smiled and said, "Yes."
Xiao Jingzhou and Shen Lan returned to the commander-in-chief's tent one after the other.
As soon as he sat down, Xiao Jingzhou asked, "Where is the injury?"
Shen Lan pointed to her abdomen and said, "I got stabbed here, and my intestines fell out."
"If it weren't for the doctor's skillful hands and the medicine sent by the gods, I'm afraid I would have to stay in Dayan."
Chen Lan led 50,000 troops to attack Dayan. Although they were equipped with sophisticated modern weapons, their military strength was far inferior to that of Dayan.
What's more, Dayan also has sophisticated weapons.
If it weren't for Chen Lan's experience in leading troops, his swift march, and his ability to attack vital points, this battle would probably have lasted a long time.
Shen Lan said with a sense of relief: "Your Highness, I have taken the head of the Lord of Great Yan."
"The princes who hold military power will also be killed."
"Now Dayan is unable to take care of itself and has no leader, so it is unable to supply weapons to other countries."
Xiao Jingzhou patted Shen Lan on the shoulder: "Wen Shao, thank you for your hard work."
Before Shen Lan could speak, the commander heard a noise outside the tent.
Soon, Chen Gan walked into the commander-in-chief's tent.
He saw Shen Lan was stunned for a moment before realizing that Dayan was no longer a force to be reckoned with.
Shen Lan asked, "What do you want to report?"
Chen Gan glanced at Xiao Jingzhou, and only spoke when he saw him nod.
"Reporting to Your Highness, Lu Heng asked me to pass on a message. We will have a chat near the old tree in the forest tonight."
Xiao Jingzhou didn't expect that the news would come in just a few days.
For a moment, he didn't know whether Lu Heng was efficient or his whereabouts had been exposed.
However, as long as there is a glimmer of possibility, he wants to give it a try.
Xiao Jingzhou said: "Tell him that I will be there on time."
…
Midnight, lush forest.
It was pitch black all around, and the forest under the moonlight was mysterious and eerie.
Hang Daji: "Brother, is it really okay for us to go to the meeting alone?"
Hang Dali: "Will this Huang guy not deceive us?"
Wei Feng, with a full beard, said in a deep voice: "I came here for the jade in the picture."
Soon, there was movement in the distance.
Lu Heng: "Young Master, we are just ahead."
Wei Feng saw six people coming in the dark.
He originally thought that the other party was holding a torch, but when he got closer he found that it was a strange transparent light.
Wei Feng saw Xiao Jingzhou half-closed his eyes and asked, "Your Highness the Crown Prince?"
Xiao Jingzhou smiled and said, "General Wei has a good eye."
Wei Feng said calmly: "Your Highness called the wrong person."
"That's my father. I'm just a captain of the Fire Battalion."
Wei Feng was neither humble nor arrogant, his body was as straight as a pine tree, and he had no intention of bowing at all.
Lu Chen frowned and wanted to scold him out of habit, but his reason overcame his inertia and he realized that he couldn't act rashly at this time.
Xiao Jingzhou was not annoyed: "General Wei is a founding hero. In the early days of the founding of the country, the emperor ordered that his merits be passed down for three generations."
Wei Feng's expression eased slightly, and he said self-deprecatingly: "I thought everyone had forgotten about it, but now that I hear this, I find it fresh."
Xiao Jingzhou: "Those who care about it will not forget, and the people will not forget either."
Wei Feng said: "This is not a good place to discuss matters. Please follow me."
The capital city was unguarded and the city gates were left open at night.
Wei Feng brought Xiao Jingzhou to the Wei Mansion.
After Wei Benshu passed away, General Wei's Mansion became an empty house with no one visiting and no one living there.
No one in the court mentioned it, and it was all thanks to Lord Zhang.
Xiao Jingzhou thought he would see dead grass everywhere, but he did not expect the house to be so clean.
The group walked to the study and Wei Feng pushed the door open and walked in.
He said: "My father is right. Your Highness will eventually reach this point."
