This martial artist just wants to be an official

Chapter 411: Uncle's Wisdom

As Lu Yuanzhi's team slowly moved forward.

Aunt Lenglan's team of swordsmen and shieldmen and spearmen did not lose their composure.

After hearing and seeing Aunt Lengdan's order, the spear team quickly moved forward, attacking Lu Yuanzhi's Yuanyang team with the meter-long spears in their hands.

The spears of the spear team are all standard military spears, about ten feet long.

The pressure of the spear team is not comparable to that of the sword and shield team. Although they are not wearing iron armor, they are also wearing high-quality leather armor. The battle between the two teams is about to break out.

Although the soldiers at the front of the spear team were not veterans, they were no match for the new recruits. He seized the opportunity and stabbed the soldiers in the Mandarin Duck Team with his spear.

However, they ignored the soldiers holding shields.

There are two soldiers in the Mandarin Duck Formation who are specifically responsible for holding shields for guarding.

"when!!"

The spear pierced the shield, but the soldiers in the Mandarin Duck Formation were intact.

At the same time, the soldiers holding spears seized the opportunity and slashed at the spearmen.

"Puff puff!"

The wooden spears left white marks on the spearmen.

From afar, the soldiers in the Mandarin Duck Formation were like a sharp blade, tearing a hole in the team in front of them and slowly and unwaveringly rushing forward.

On this narrow mountain road, the more than a thousand people brought by Aunt Lengdan were harvested like wheat.

"This……"

Seeing this scene, Aunt Lengdan was stunned.

She obviously didn't expect that the inexplicable "Mandarin Duck Formation" under Lu Yuanzhi's command would be so powerful.

"kill!!!"

The shouting and killing sounds were like a roar that shook the sky.

Lu Yuanzhi took in the entire scene. He stood on the top of the mountain with a smile on his face.

Sure enough, it was pretty much what I thought.

Since he entered the third level, not only has he been in much better spirits, but his brain has also become more alert than before.

For many things, you can basically figure out the approximate answer just by thinking about it in your mind.

He expected that in this mountain path, the Mandarin Duck Formation could maximize its advantages, and sure enough, it was indeed the case.

"Rush!!"

The soldiers in the Mandarin Duck Formation had a sense of smell no worse than those under Aunt Lengdan. After realizing that the enemy could not do anything to them, there was only one word left in everyone's mind.

"kill!"

Needless to say, the situation at this time was completely one-sided.

The smile on Lu Yuanzhi's lips grew bigger and bigger.

"hehe."

Everything is under control amidst laughter.

He felt that if he could have a feather fan now, he could learn from Zhou Gongjin, who was good at planning and strategizing, and destroy the masts and oars in the midst of laughter and chatter...

"Let's go."

Lu Yuanzhi stood up with a smile and walked towards Aunt Lengleng.

"Master Lu, the winner has not yet been decided..."

The middle-level officer was stunned and looked at Lu Yuanzhi's back.

"Already divided."

Lu Yuanzhi didn't even turn his head, his tone remained gentle.

"what?"

The middle-level officers looked towards the center of the battlefield.

"The victory has been decided."

Ji Xuan's eyes were deep and solemn.

"Ah."

Marquis Weiwu couldn't help but clench his hands.

Looking at the two teams in the mountains, it was only a matter of time before the team composed of sword and shield soldiers and spearmen were defeated.

"This formation... is quite ingenious."

As the contemporary leader of Confucian and Taoist military strategists, Weiwu Hou could naturally see at a glance why Lu Yuanzhi's team was able to win.

"This is our military exercise. The sword and shield soldiers and spearmen are wearing armor... If they were replaced by the demon tribe's soldiers..."

After hearing this, Ji Xuan's eyes became extremely shocked, flashing with an incomparable light:

"If it were the demon soldiers, I'm afraid they would be defeated even more severely!"

"Hahahahaha, it works!! With this formation, my twenty-year plan for Dayong has come true!"

Weiwu Hou suddenly laughed loudly and pointed at the 1,200 people in the Yuanyang Formation below and said:
"Originally, I was worried that the new Confucian formation set up in the mountains would not be powerful enough, but now I don't have to worry about that. I just need to lure the hundreds of thousands of demon soldiers into the mountains, and then use the formation to consume them for a while, and then I will activate the big formation..."

When he said this, his tone couldn't help but become high-spirited.

After hearing this, Ji Xuan also smiled:
"By then, the demon army will be completely wiped out!!"

"The land of the demon race is also under the sword of Dayong!"

The most powerful man is about to dance.

"Hahaha okay! Okay!"

Ji Xuan also laughed out loud.

The laughter of the two could be heard from far away, and they seemed a little too proud of themselves.

Lu Yuanzhi, who was walking towards the cold aunt, was slightly shaken. He turned around and looked straight towards the top of the mountain.

But nothing unusual was found.

"what happened?"

At this time, Aunt Lengdan also saw Lu Yuanzhi's figure. She followed his gaze and did not find anything unusual.

"I seemed to hear Mr. Ji's laughter..."

Lu Yuanzhi looked at the top of the mountain with suspicion.

"is it?"

Aunt Lengdan also frowned:

"Mr. Ji must be in the martial arts world now, why is he coming to the front line?"

"That's true."

Lu Yuanzhi sighed and said:

"I haven't seen Mr. Ji for a long time. I really miss him."

"Ah."

Aunt Lengdan nodded slowly. She could naturally understand Lu Yuanzhi. This was human nature.

"Let's not talk about that. Ji Gong will definitely show up when he's supposed to. He also promised me that he would hold my baby when he's born."

Lu Yuanzhi chuckled.

Hearing Lu Yuanzhi's laughter, Aunt Lengdan's heart suddenly twitched and her face froze.

Then he just nodded faintly:
"The Mandarin Duck Formation you created will definitely be no problem for fighting in the mountains."

"Really……"

Lu Yuanzhi smiled and nodded:
"You have seen the power of this formation. If there is no problem, then we can train the 50,000 county soldiers in the city into a mandarin duck army. We will train them in the mountains, and..."

Having said that, Lu Yuanzhi slowly turned his gaze towards the middle-level officer:

"What's your name?"

"General, I am the vanguard."

"Well, after returning to the camp, you take my tiger talisman and transfer the 50,000 county soldiers in Xuzhou City to the mountains to train them with the mandarin duck formation. Hiding them in the mountains, they can also be considered a surprise force."

Lu Yuanzhi's eyes remained calm as he looked at the five forwards. An invisible pressure also slowly pressed towards them.

Feeling the pressure, Wu Qianfeng suddenly felt happy. He raised his head with a burning gaze:

"Thank you, Marshal!"

"Well, you will temporarily lead these 50,000 Yuanyang soldiers. If you are well trained, I will appoint you as Yuanyang General and lead the troops into battle!"

Lu Yuanzhi said lightly.

"I obey my orders!"

Wu Qianfeng's neck turned red with excitement.

I have been a middle-level officer for my entire life, but I never expected to be promoted to a senior officer when the war came!
His heart was filled with excitement.

"Well, let's go back to the camp!" Lu Yuanzhi ignored his excitement, just nodded lightly, then slowly stood up, floated up, and flew towards Xuzhou City.

Seeing him soar into the air, everyone looked at him enthusiastically:
"Master Lu is invincible!!"

"Master Lu is invincible!!"

"Long live Marshal Lu!!"

"Long live Marshal Lu!!"

The sounds rise and fall, endlessly.

……

Dayong Capital.

Three months have passed since Lu Yuanzhi led his army to war.

At this time, Dayong had already entered the autumn season, and there were so many wheat fields in the fields that they were too numerous to count.

"It's another beautiful year, and it's harvest time for the people."

After my uncle left the court, he walked along the official roads of the capital, slowly looking at the people on the street from his carriage.

An inexplicable pressure was brewing in my heart.

This pressure has been with Lu Yuanzhi for three months, and it is getting heavier day by day.

"Ugh."

After returning home, my uncle locked himself in the study.

He gazed dimly at the calligraphy and paintings on the wall, and the ambiguous glances between Prime Minister Li Zhen and Prince Qing during the morning court emerged in his mind.

Now in the court, my uncle can be described as walking on thin ice.

During these three months of morning court sessions, the two thieves, Li Zhen and Prince Qing, found different ways to make him uncomfortable almost every day.

Either he reported an official under his command, or he reported his nephew who had led the army to war and had not been heard from since. This was a disregard for the majesty of the court...

I heard that my uncle became restless.

The most important thing is that the mentally retarded emperor actually listened to what the two said.

If I hadn't argued for my rights today, the money and food supplies to the front line would have been cut off by Prince Qing and Li Zhen.

"Damn it, if there's no more good news coming from your uncle, I won't be able to hold on any longer."

After a long time, my uncle sighed deeply.

"Master, someone wants to see you."

The voice of the servant and the housekeeper came into the study.

"Who?"

My uncle looked up at the door impatiently and asked.

"The prefect of Jingzhao."

After hearing the servant's voice, the uncle was startled:
"Why did Mr. Sun come to see me?"

He frowned and said:

"Let him in."

"Yes."

After a while, a familiar figure slowly appeared outside the study.

"Mr. Sun, why bother coming here in person? Send someone to let me know and I'll come find you!"

When he saw the visitor, my uncle's face immediately showed a warm smile, and he came to the study door to greet him in person with a big laugh.

"I apologize for my intrusive visit."

Sun Lianting slowly bowed to his uncle.

"No gift, no gift."

The uncle gave a vague help:
"You and I are as close as brothers, why do we need to perform this ceremony? If it weren't for Prefect Sun, my ignorant nephew would have died in the prefectural prison."

“Shame on you.”

Hearing his uncle bring up the old matter again, Prefect Sun said with a shy look on his face:
"If I hadn't been unclear about the situation and had been deceived by my subordinates, Commander Lu wouldn't have suffered all that."

"It's all in the past, haha, no need to talk about it, let's go, let's go to the main hall and talk!"

My uncle is extremely gentle, but also very passionate.

Li Zhen and Prince Qing have been the ones who have absolute power in the court these days. As Sun Lianting was the confidant of the late emperor, he was naturally excluded by the two. He must have been having a rough time like himself these days.

Although my nephew is not very good at timing, he said one very good thing.

My uncle also agrees very much.

The enemy of the enemy is the friend.

After the two of them arrived at the side hall, the uncle hurriedly said to the servant:

"You blind man, don't you see that a distinguished guest is coming? Look at the tea!"

"Yes!"

"No need to."

Seeing his uncle so enthusiastic, Sun Lianting's originally somewhat uneasy heart slowly relaxed.

They are all old foxes in the officialdom and no one can play Strange Stories from a Chinese Studio with each other.

Since he is willing to see me and shows such enthusiasm, it means he accepts me.

"It's okay. These are all the good teas that my nephew got from the Taoist competition. I usually don't want to drink them. I only opened one or two glasses when you came."

The uncle quickly poured tea for Sun Lianting.

"Master Hai..."

Sun Lianting seemed to see his old father in his uncle. At this special incident, the grievance in his heart suddenly burst out and tears fell down.

"Don't cry..."

When my uncle heard this, the corners of his mouth twitched slightly.

Damn, I got into the role so quickly, doesn't it show that my acting is terrible? ?

In fact, it’s not Sun Lianting’s fault. After all, he was more or less moved at this time.

Otherwise, she wouldn't have cried so miserably.

"That traitor Li Zhen and the rebel King Qing! They deceived Your Majesty and took control of the court! The truth is clear!"

When he talked about the emotional parts, Sun Lianting's voice even became a little hoarse.

"Alas, now in the court, the two of them are like birds of a feather. I can't do anything about them."

My uncle simply stopped pretending, but he also didn't express his opinion. After all, he wasn't very familiar with the man in front of him, so he was more or less wary.

After hearing what his uncle said, Sun Lianting gritted his teeth and bowed directly:
"If you don't mind, please take me in. From now on, I will follow your lead!"

Um? ?

My uncle was a little confused.

I just used a basic attack, and I swear, he even used his flash? ?

"What Prefect Sun said... I don't quite understand."

My uncle was still on guard, but there was a hint of tentativeness in his words.

If Governor Sun could really join my camp, my situation in the court would definitely be much better than before.

After all, I could only say that I was weak and alone before...

"Master Hai, during this period, all officials in the court have been trembling with fear, fearing that they would offend Prince Qing and Li Zhen's followers. However, due to the sudden death of the late emperor, they dared not speak out. Only you dared to speak out for justice. Everyone is waiting for your letter."

Prefect Sun finally revealed the purpose of his visit.

Hearing this, my uncle narrowed his eyes slowly, then smiled slowly and said:

"Since Prefect Sun has said so much, would you please make a report on my behalf during the morning court tomorrow?"

"This……"

When Sun Lianting heard his uncle's words, he was slightly shocked.

"Of course, if you don't want to, I won't force you. Lord Sun, please do as you please."

My uncle slowly stood up and laughed, but his smile now seemed a little colder than before.

Seeing his uncle's strange smile, Sun Lianting's heart suddenly sank, then he slowly stood up, looked at his uncle firmly and said:
"I wonder what Lord Hai wants me to do?"

My uncle looked at Sun Lianting slowly, and a gleam of light flashed in his eyes.

Seeing that Sun Lianting didn't look like he was faking it, he chuckled and said slowly:

"I will report that Prince Qing has been withholding military rations and blocking the way for our soldiers on the front lines of Dayong. He has ulterior motives and is disloyal."

"Hi~"
