After the Fairy Disappeared

  Chapter 124 Counting

   "Me?" This topic successfully aroused Lu Yao's interest. He put down his wine bowl, frowned and thought for a while.

   "Dong Haoming's military achievements in the early years were scary, but he is a little confused when he is old. He didn't even find out whether the emperor was in the palace, so he started to assassinate him. Who will eat if he doesn't suffer?"

He took a sip of wine and ate two more peanuts handed over by the gangster: "Besides, his sons are not very capable. I fought against his second son Dong Haoye by the Xiangrong Lake. I don't know where this kid is. Wherever you have read two military books, you dare to lead troops. His father probably wants him to make some military exploits on the battlefield, so that he can make his way back to the sky, but who knows that he met me in that battle!"

  At this time, the fish soup cooked by the chef was also served on the table. The milky thick soup was stewed with a few chicken feathers, two young mushrooms, and a handful of thin and springy hand-rolled noodles. He Chunhua dripped a few drops of wine into the fish soup while it was still hot, and it was so fragrant that carnivorous creatures within a radius of 200 meters swallowed wildly.

   He watched Lu Yao snore and finish half a bowl of soup, and then asked: "How did you fight that battle? General Lu, tell me what you want?"

Lu Yaoke was overjoyed when someone wanted to hear about his proud past, wiped his mouth and said: "At that time, Dong Haoye thought that our camp by the lake was empty, and brought more than a thousand people to steal the camp, and almost let him succeed. Fortunately, I took 300 people on a patrol, and when I saw the flames calling for help in mid-air, I rushed back."

  He Chunhua gave a thumbs up: "Three hundred people are against more than one thousand people, that's amazing."

"Haha, this kid is so stupid to ride a white horse! On a dark and windy night, that horse was so white that it glowed, and I knocked him down with one arrow. When the flag fell, the morale of the army dispersed. Humans are a mob, and we will be dispersed within two rounds..."

  ￥￥￥￥￥

  Wu Shaoyi was distracted for a while, but Sable came back before the troops from the mountain came up.

"There is an army hiding under Whistle Rock. There are at least five hundred of them. They all sit at night, but they don't light a fire. I saw two guys whispering to each other and laughing so hard that they got whipped. By the way, I was inside I also saw a few familiar faces, these are indeed Lu Yao's subordinates."

  It actually spoke, but no one was surprised here, it was no surprise.

  Wu Shaoyi asked it: "How far is Shaoziyan from Xianling Village?"

   "It only takes me a few tens of breaths to jump over, and you humans probably need a cup of tea." Sable added, "The space under Whistleblower Rock is spacious enough to accommodate hundreds of people at the same time."

  Wu Shaoyi's complexion suddenly became ugly.

  The distance is so close, but these people don’t go to Xianling Village to have a fire and eat fish. They would rather hide under the Whistleblower Rock in the cold dew, without even raising the campfire, for fear of being discovered... Could it be that they are squatting in a group?

  Since Lu Yao sent an invitation to meet up, the three parties agreed to take 200 people each to Shuangyuetan, both for balance and as a precaution.

   Now that Lu Yao is quietly sending more people to Shaoziyan, this is a unilateral breach of contract!

  He knew that Lu Yao was absolutely untrustworthy!

  Wu Shaoyi took a deep breath, told herself to calm down, and then asked Sable: "What about Xianling Village, what did you see?"

"Lu Yao was sitting with a man by the big lake at the entrance of the village, and in front of him was a big fish king. The two of them were grilling fish and eating wine, talking and laughing happily. I heard Lu Yao brag about his previous achievements, and called that man a 'Master He'! By the way, he also gave advice to the opponent, how to capture Wuzhou and defeat Da Sima!"

  Wu Shaoyi's expression changed.

  Lu Yao is sitting with a court official eating fish and drinking wine? This scene is very inconsistent when you think about it.

  As for dealing with Da Sima, that is a headache for Wang Ting, and no one else will ask Lu Yao for his opinion on this.

  The person surnamed He must be an official.

"These two gossip about several generals, including General Pei. Master He praised him for being resourceful and prudent, but Lu Yao said that prudence has both good and bad. General Pei's concubines have slept with others, and General Pei has not followed The adulterer turned his face." Sable scratched his belly, "The two laughed for a while, Master He questioned the adulterer, and Lu Yao said he was General Xiaoyao."

   "By the way, there are officers and soldiers in light armor behind that 'Master He'. I walked around the village, and there are at least two hundred officers and soldiers, looking nervous."

  Wu Shaoyi pressed the handle of the knife with one hand, his face livid: "Okay, okay, the surname Lu really wants to surrender with our lives!"

  New hatred and old hatred surged up in one brain.

  The guide on the side stared wide-eyed in shock: "General Wu, don't fall into the enemy's trap. That officer and soldier is the target we want to kill! General Lu just held him steady, waiting for you and General Pei to sacrifice the flag together!"

   "You drink and eat fish with the beheaded target?" Wu Shaoyi smiled instead of anger, "Didn't you say earlier that there is no abnormality in the village?"

"I…"

   "There are not many officers and soldiers, and Lu Yao can eat it by himself. Why do you have to wait for us to go together?"

  The guide couldn't answer, so it can't be said that Boss Lu doesn't want to hurt himself, right? He had no choice but to bite the bullet and said: "Think about the letter sent by the flying arrow, someone must be secretly provoking relations!"

  The guide continued to argue, but Wu Shaoyi was too lazy to listen, and cut off his head with his backhand.

  The blade was still dripping blood, and he had sent someone to order Pei Xinyong. Lu Yao not only violated the contract and took all his men, but also conspired with the officers and soldiers to plot against him. How could he, Wu Shaoyi, be so easy to kill?

  Pei Xinyong tried his best to bring peace to the meeting this time, and this person has a relatively peaceful temperament. In order to fight for his combat strength, Wu Shaoyi asked the scouts who sent the order to focus on exaggerating Lu Yao's outrageous words. Pei Xinyong's favorite concubine is as beautiful as a flower, the key is that he is 30 years younger, no matter how strong the old Pei is, he is still in his fifties, and he is busy with military affairs, how can he respond to requests? That time he led the troops out and fought for more than four months. The concubine not only got married with other people, but also became pregnant.

  Pei Xinyong couldn't bear it no matter how prudent he was, he beat the concubine to death in a fit of rage, without even asking who the adulterer was, and drank for half a month afterwards.

  This kind of thing is a thorn in the heart for any man.

   What's even better is that the adulterer General Xiaoyao has died in battle, even if Pei Xinyong gets the news now, he can't wake him up and kill him a second time.

  Wu Shaoyi was full of enthusiasm, but instead of rushing for success, he put the whole army on standby, waiting for Pei Xinyong's reply.

  During this period, Lu Yao sent scouts again.

  Wu Shaoyi's subordinates spoke kindly to each other. They only said that it was not easy for the general to sober up. He delayed entering the mountain. He will take a rest now and move on immediately.

   After more than half an hour, Pei Xinyong's reply finally came, very simple:

  The manpower has been replenished, and we are willing to drag 700 elite soldiers to Shaoziyan.

  As soon as he agreed, Wu Shaoyi gained confidence in her heart, waved her hand and said, "Let's go, aim at Xianling Village!"

  Pei Xinyong also brought up the remaining troops from the foot of the mountain, with a total of 1,600 troops.
