Chapter 410 His Majesty Trusts Her
The soldiers of the Lu family army have always admired the strong. General Zhang's move was a suggestion given to him by Lu Yunting on the way here.
If you want the Lu family army to surrender completely, you can't just rely on the emperor's order, you have to prove it to them with your strength.
Although the method is simple and crude, it is very useful.
Upon hearing that the Lu family soldiers had accepted the battle, General Zhang raised his lip and said, "In view of our battle agreement, in order to ensure fairness and justice, I will decide that your caning will be carried out in half a month."
"In that case, let me experience it first!"
Afterwards, General Zhang and the generals of the Lu family army stood on the competition arena.
The soldiers of the Lu family army cheered for the Lu family army generals on the stage, and the sound was like a tide and deafening.
General Zhang's face was as gloomy as water, his eyes were as sharp as an eagle, and the spear in his hand flashed with a cold light.
The generals of the Lu family army were waiting for an opportunity with their swords in hand, their eyes were equally sharp and their momentum was even greater.
The next second, the two of them took action at the same time.
General Zhang's body was as fast as lightning, and his spear was like a dragon emerging from the sea, piercing the throat of the Lu family army general.
The Lu family army general reacted quickly and dodged to the side, slashing down with his sword, bringing up a gust of fierce wind.
The two sides fought back and forth, neither giving in.
The Lu family army soldiers in the audience looked at the two people on the stage nervously, cheering and clapping for the Lu family army generals from time to time.
As time went by, General Zhang's marksmanship became more and more sharp, and each move contained endless power.
The generals of the Lu family army gradually fell into a passive position, sweat began to seep out of their foreheads, and they began to be at a disadvantage.
Finally, General Zhang seized the weakness of the Lu family army general and swung his spear, knocking the Lu family army general's sword away.
Immediately afterwards, General Zhang put his spear against the throat of the Lu family army general.
"Thank you for your kindness!" General Zhang put away his gun and stood with a faint smile on his face.
The Lu family army general who was wielding a broadsword clasped his fists towards General Zhang, accepting his defeat with conviction.
The Lu family army soldiers below the stage were in an uproar. They didn't expect that General Zhang was so powerful.
However, defeating a general does not mean anything.
After the general who wielded the sword jumped off the stage, another general from the Lu family army came on stage to learn from him.
Lu's general: "Neither you nor I need weapons, the truth will be revealed with our fists!"
"Okay." General Zhang threw the spear to the deputy general in the audience.
Then, the two men started fighting.
Because of the difference in size between the two, General Zhang was at a disadvantage from the beginning.
However, in the end, General Zhang won the competition with his outstanding martial arts and speed.
Seeing that General Zhang won two games in a row, the soldiers of the Lu family army in the audience couldn't help but become serious.
Not all the people in the court are armchair strategists.
However, it's not enough.
General Zhang glanced at the soldiers and asked, "Is there anyone else who wants to come up and learn from us?"
"I come!"
……
After a round of fighting, Lu Yunting called for a halt.
He said, "Young General Zhang has fought so many people in a row and is showing signs of fatigue. If we continue, even if you win, it will be an unfair victory. Let's end it here today and continue tomorrow."
As time passed, the night slowly spread out from the horizon like a huge piece of black silk, quietly covering the land on the border.
The vast expanse of yellow sand in the daytime gradually disappeared into the darkness.
The five generals of the Lu family army took advantage of the night and came to Lu Yunting's tent.
General Chang was the first to speak up and ask, "General, are you really going to hand over the Lu family army to the royal family?"
"Under Your Majesty's rule, the people of Daxia live and work in peace and contentment, and the country prospers. The purpose of my Lu Family Army's existence has always been to protect this land and safeguard the peace of Daxia." Lu Yun's gaze swept over the faces of several people one by one. "I have no intention of rebellion."
"But..." General Gao looked worried, "Your Majesty's actions have made us uneasy."
Lu Yunting: "Your Majesty may not be a completely wise ruler, but he is still wise in the face of the overall situation. In addition, a change of power will inevitably lead to bloodshed, and I do not want to see such a situation."
Hearing this, the five generals fell into deep thought.
"If your majesty is not at fault, I will never allow the Lu family army founded by my grandfather to become a rebel army." Lu Yunting's voice was neither light nor heavy, but full of oppression.
"The general is willing to trust the court, and I am willing to trust it once too." General Shan expressed his opinion.
The other two generals were loyal to Lu Yunting and would not raise any objection no matter what decision Lu Yunting made.
Therefore, the two of them didn't speak after they came in.
Seeing that General Chang and General Gao still had concerns, Lu Yunting continued, "Don't worry, as long as she is here and the Lu family army doesn't commit rebellion, His Majesty will not eliminate the Lu family army."
"He?" General Chang asked, "Who is the "he" the general is talking about?"
"She is a minister that His Majesty trusts very much, and she is also my wife-to-be." Speaking of Jiang Yueyang, Lu Yunting couldn't help but curl his lips slightly, "She trusts the Lu family army, and His Majesty trusts her."
The five people were shocked. Was the "he" the general was talking about actually a woman? And the future general's wife?
"It was she who persuaded Your Majesty to give Qiu Jianshe a lighter sentence when he rebelled. Otherwise, the punishment we would have suffered would have been even more severe." Lu Yunting added.
After hearing this, General Chang and the others looked at each other, then stood up and clasped their fists towards Lu Yunting. The meaning was self-evident.
Lu Yunting smiled with satisfaction, "I'd like to trouble you generals to think about the soldiers."
"The last general takes orders."
The next day, the Lu family army generals continued to challenge General Zhang. After an hour, General Zhang was still undefeated.
General Zhang was trained personally by General Zhenguo. Although he is very skilled, there are people in the Lu family army who can defeat him.
But they had no intention of fighting it.
***
Back in Beijing, Jiang Yueyang had nothing to do, so she followed her father to attend the housewarming party of her father's former classmates.
Minister Jiang didn't want to take her there, fearing she would go there to eat melons. But after she kept pestering him, he finally took her there.
At this time, the father and daughter had just stepped into the gate of Xie Mansion.
As soon as they entered, they saw a middle-aged man with a cane and a smile on his face walking towards them.
"Brother Xiwen, long time no see."
