Chapter 109 White Snake King (Subscribe)
Outside the tent, there were many tall and strong soldiers holding spears standing in formation on both sides.
But the road was long, and among these pawns in formation, they walked slowly and leisurely, without any pressure.
With his current strength, even if he is not carrying weapons, these less than twenty pawns may not be able to do anything to him.
If the other party has bad intentions and takes action, the pawns outside will definitely support him.
Even though there are over ten thousand or even tens of thousands of soldiers in this camp, they are not all gathered together.
He had a long way to go, and he was absolutely sure that he could break out before these troops gathered.
Therefore, at this moment, his face looked very relaxed.
He walked to the tent, reached out to open the curtain, and strode in.
As soon as I entered the tent, a woody fragrance wafted over.
Looking around, there are neatly stacked bamboo and wooden books.
It doesn't look like a military camp, but rather like a scholar's home.
Inside the tent, a man in a green shirt, with a white face and no beard, who looked to be in his thirties, was sitting on a couch, holding a book and frowning as he thought hard.
That look reminded Lu Yuan of those studious students solving problems in his previous life.
Noticing someone coming in, the man in green raised his head.
Looking from the front, there is some vicissitudes in his eyes.
When the man in green saw that Lu Yuan was far away, he seemed to wake up from his reading state and smiled slightly:
"Lu Lushuai."
Lu Yuan looked at the person in front of him.
This person is naturally Li Qi’s teacher, and the king of the Tianxing Army in Muzhou.
When the other party said the three words "Lu Lu Shuai", it meant that the other party admitted that he and the pawns outside were all from the Tianxing Army.
However, he has come a long way, so he doesn't necessarily have to stay here. It all depends on the other party's sincerity.
Therefore, he just nodded slightly and did not perform any greeting.
The man in green clothes did not care about the distance and said casually:
"Marshal Lu, please take a seat."
Lu Yuan didn't hesitate to walk to the chair on the side of the tent and sat down.
The man in green shirt, seeing Lu Yuan sitting down, said gently:
“General Lu, Li Qi has told me all about your deeds.
You killed Zhao Hu and restored the reputation of our Tianxing Army. You are worthy of the position of brigade commander.
The journey from Youzhou to Muzhou was thousands of miles long. You killed several enemy generals and those bandits who were causing trouble. These are all great achievements.
And yesterday, you killed Chu Huo, a second-rank cavalry general of the imperial court. You eliminated a threat to our Tianxing Army in one fell swoop. This kind of military achievement is enough for you to make further progress in the Tianxing Army.
Therefore, I have proposed that you be promoted to the commander of the Tianxing Army, with 8,000 soldiers in command.
In a few days, I will preside over your promotion ceremony."
Lu Yuan caught the two key words "division commander" and "leading 8,000 troops" and immediately stood up from his chair.
Wow, he is worthy of being the supreme commander of the Tianxing Army, he is so generous!
Eight thousand soldiers!
Even if you count the nearly two thousand soldiers he originally had, it is equivalent to getting more than six thousand soldiers for free!
The number of available soldiers under his command increased fourfold at once!
This is simply enormous wealth!
It was worth the journey of thousands of miles from Youzhou.
Such a great gift, must be thanked!
Thinking of this, Lu Yuan walked to the blue-shirted man with a happy face, bowed and thanked him:
"Thanks".
Uh, stuck?
Who to thank?
He didn't know the names of any of the kings of the Tianxing Army, and he didn't ask Li Qi. He really didn't know the name of the blue-shirted man from Muzhou in front of him.
Just when the road was far away and a little awkward.
The man in green said, "You can call me the commander-in-chief.
You can also call me, White Snake King. ".
Hearing the name White Snake King, Lu Yuan was stunned.
White Snake King? ?
My goodness, all the major righteous armies in the world started their uprising by slaying the White Snake. Isn't it a bit unlucky for you to directly use the name of the White Snake?
As if guessing what Lu Yuan was thinking, the White Snake King smiled and said:
"If you can achieve peace in the world, why not kill me?"
Lu Yuan was stunned for a moment, then bowed sincerely and thanked him:
"Thank you, King White Snake!".
It's fine to call him White Snake King, so there's no need to address him as "Sir".
The White Snake King looked at Lu Yuan who was bowing and saluted, and continued:
“General Lu, your division is directly under my command and does not need to take orders from the commander of the army.
The promotion and demotion arrangements of these eight thousand soldiers are entirely up to you, and I will not interfere."
When Lu Yuan heard this, he could no longer suppress the ecstasy on his face!
This White Snake King is really generous! !
He is allowed to command 8,000 soldiers and make all the decisions on personnel matters by himself, without having to follow orders from his superiors?
Isn't this equivalent to making him a vassal king who is not subject to any jurisdiction but in charge of a large number of troops?
If that's the case, then the 6,000 pawns given to him would be literally given to him for free!
He has the final say on the promotion and dismissal of these soldiers. It won't take too long for these soldiers to belong to him completely! They will become his private soldiers!
This White Snake King is truly extremely magnanimous!
Lu Yuan bowed again to express his gratitude.
The White Snake King nodded and said:
"General Lu, you must be tired after marching all the way from Youzhou for more than a month.
Later, you can find Li Qi to arrange food and lodging for you and your men."
After saying this, the White Snake King picked up the book on the table, as if he was ready to continue his previous thoughts.
After Lu Yuan thanked him again, he turned and walked out of the tent.
The White Snake King looked at the young figure about to walk out of the tent and suddenly said:
“Master Lu, you have done justice for the people in Lianhua County.
I believe that no matter where you go in the future.
It will be the same as it was at the beginning."
Lu Yuandu walked to the door of the tent and paused for a moment when he heard the words behind him.
He had already drawn aside the curtains at the door, so he just pretended not to hear and stepped out.
Wait until you walk out of the tent.
Walk to the place more than ten feet away, where the guards are guarding.
The tall guard who had been guarding his weapons was no longer there.
Another guard was replaced, who moved the heavy black iron spear with both hands with great effort and returned the weapon to him.
The guard was now complaining in his mind about the guard who had asked him for help.
That guy is so bad!
He said he had something urgent to do and asked me to keep the weapon and return it when the people in the tent came out.
He thought it was a small matter, so he helped out.
When he saw someone coming out of the tent, he wanted to pick up the weapon and return it to the other person, but he found that it took all his strength to move the weapon!
It was really embarrassing to carry the weapon step by step in front of everyone.
His face was swollen red due to the force and embarrassment.
He moved the weapon in front of the person who came out, but saw that person casually grabbed the spear with one hand and walked out.
In contrast, this soldier feels more human.
He felt too embarrassed to stay here, so he turned around, rolled up his sleeves, and went to settle the score with the guard in a rage.
