Chapter 65: Meet (5)
The life of killing and struggling over the years is like a hammer hitting Lu Yao, putting him on layers of solid and thick armor. ~ A little bit of softness will become an obstacle for him, and even be ridiculed by his companions. Only when he occasionally dreams of it late at night will he remember that there are also warm lights and shadows in the darkness covered with blood and fire under the protection of the heavy armor. But at this moment, when Lu Yao looked at the much mature but still young face in front of him, the layers of armor disappeared, and the memories he hid in the deepest part of him appeared vividly.
All the fragments of memories are painful, sad, and humiliated, but there are always brothers connected by blood. When the country was broken and the people of the deceased lived hard under the surveillance of the Jin army soldiers, the doll trotted behind him; when the Later Shi Henggong went north to deal with high officials and nobles in the Great Jin Dynasty, he often held a quack and followed the children; when he was free, he rode a horse and followed him on a horse to hunt, he rode a pony and asked for venison to eat; when he stuffed his family letters into his huge luggage, he led a yellow dog on a journey of thousands of miles...
Lu Yao drifted in many states and counties in the north, isolated from his hometown. He always thought that all the relatives who entered Luo had been destroyed and that he was the only survivor of the tragedy. Unexpectedly, his cousin, who had long been separated from heaven and man, appeared in front of him again. Lu Yao tried his best to suppress his emotions, but still felt his eyes a little sour. He reluctantly considered it and said slowly: "After the river bridge is separated, it is only five years since then, but he suddenly felt like he had a different life. Today, I know that Yan is safe, I... very happy."
Let’s look at the person who was called “Daoyan” by Lu Yao. It was the envoy Lu Jun who had just been taken to the central army.
Lu Yao looked at him, and he also smiled at Lu Yao. Both of them seemed to talk in their hearts, but they didn't know how to talk about it for a while. Only the big dog Huang'er turned over excitedly, ran around Lu Yao for a few laps, barked a few times, and then ran around Lu Jun for a few laps, barked a few times.
After a while, Lu Yao asked: "Are you okay these years?"
Lu Jun nodded and said, "Shang Hao. After leaving the River Bridge, he received the help of his old subordinates from Shilonggong. He ran for several months before he escaped back to Jiangdong. It was difficult to describe it all. He originally planned to travel around Linquan and spend his whole life from now on. However, a few months ago, he was suddenly recommended by Andong Sima Wang Maohong and Chaoba as the sacrificial sacrificial wine. Ha, after taking office in the Central Plains, he realized that His Highness Donghai was intended to win over his brother with this move... It is said that I should solemnly thank my brother."
"So that's it..." Lu Yao pondered for a moment and asked again: "Are all the tribesmen doing well?"
"Since the rule of the king of Donghai, he has been generous to the scholars of Jiangdong. The king of Langya, who moved to Jianye, was famous and close to Su's relatives. Relying on the power of Gu Yanxian, Zhou Xuanpei and other officials, was able to suppress the Chen Min rebellion. As a result, the great clans in Wu were relieved, and the characters of our Lu clans also had to stretch. Lu Shiyao and Lu Shiguang, both served as officials in General Anton's shogun.
"Lu Shiyao, Lu Shiguang?"
"That's Lu Wan and Lu Ye."
After all, I have been away from Jiangzuo for too long. Lu Yao thought about it and then vaguely remembered these two people. Lu Wan, Lu Shiyao and Lu Ye and Lu Shiguang were the sons of Lu Ying, the Lu family’s sutra of the Lu family in Jiangdong and Gaoping, the prime minister of Eastern Wu. In the same age as Lu Ji and Lu Yun, the age of his family was comparable to his own family. I think that due to the destruction of most of the sect, these two people, as the most outstanding of the Lu family’s children, got the opportunity to make a name for themselves. Compared with Lu Jun’s prominent position, a mere steward is really nothing, but as Lu Yao’s memory in later generations is not bad, that General Anton, the general governor of the military affairs of Yangzhou, and the future of the King of Langya is worthy of admiration.
According to Lu Yao's wish, he wanted to have a happy farewell with Lu Jun all night, but the military was in a tight situation, and it was not a time to be indulge in friendship. After learning about the recent situation of his relatives and old friends, he immediately changed the topic: "By the way, how did Daoyan come here? I heard that you have a mission to come here this time?"
When Lu Yao asked about major events, the surrounding generals and schoolmen were all excited. After all, the Youji Alliance was a guest army in the Central Plains. If he could contact the center as soon as possible, he might gain the center's recognition of going south to serve the king. From then on, it is natural to be good. When Lu Yao and Lu Jun were talking to each other, everyone exchanged their eyes and exchanged back and forth several times. It was obvious that Lu Jun was a senior official who accompanied the King of Donghai shogunate and was close to Lu Yao. In this way, eight out of ten means the meaning of Donghai.
Unexpectedly, Lu Jun shook his head immediately: "After Xuchang was defeated, hundreds of thousands of troops of King Donghai were scattered. I sneaked out in a mess, scattered among the defeated soldiers for several days, almost dead of starvation... Until today, I met the leader of Team Ye. I did not have any mission on my body, and I was really just a poor person who came to the end of my life."
As soon as these words were spoken, the generals and school officials were in an uproar. The greater the hope they had before, the greater the disappointment they were at this time.
Bo Sheng couldn't help but snorted: "I clearly heard the soldiers report that you are the envoy. It turns out that the soldiers were talking nonsense?"
Lu Jun bowed to Bo Sheng awkwardly: "It's not that the soldiers are talking nonsense, but Lu Jun intends to deceive you. If this is not the case, it may be difficult to meet your brother immediately. I hope this general will not be surprised." He turned to Lu Yao again and gave a bow: "I would also like to forgive me."
Lu Yao was obviously a little unhappy and frowned slightly and said, "Listen to the military information is a serious crime! Daoyan, you are a literati and don't know the rules in the army. I will not pursue it this time. Please respect yourself when walking in the army in the future, don't do this again!"
Lu Jun couldn't take the airs of an official in front of his brother, and was scolded for a while, and he replied repeatedly.
Lu Yao waved his hand with some excitement: "Pang Yuan, you have led Daoyan back to the camp to rest and arrange the soldiers who came with you well."
During these simple conversations, another scout returned from the front line in the distance and rushed towards the place where the sword was. Lu Yao no longer paid attention to Lu Jun, held his shoulders, and looked at the battlefield where he was still fighting sporadically in the distance. This scene of brothers meeting was just a small episode in the whole day's war.
When the sky got late, the troops on both sides roared and pulled back. The Youzhou Army, who was commanded by Lu Yao, used elite cavalry teams to plunder the formation, and the infantry retreated first. Only after the infantry camped and deployed the defenses, the cavalry slowly retreated. After the generals settled their subordinates, they met in the central army to discuss the next day's combat strategy. Outside the large tent where they were conducting military negotiations, more than ten pillars of bonfires were set up to echo the defenders in Wating City. Wating defenders also experienced a whole day of fierce battle and lost their troops.
It was a big loss. But the city of Wating was small, and the troops needed to guard the command were not much. Moreover, half of Maize Ming's subordinates were his confidants for many years, and half were Youzhou soldiers who had landed in Youzhou and were favored by the shogunate of Pingbei. Even when facing a strong enemy, everyone was not afraid and had high fighting spirit. In the daytime, soldiers who had fought back from the city to rest, had their own new forces coming up to guard the city and lit torches on all sides, illuminating the city and outside the city as bright as day.
The Youzhou Army led the generals and officers with extremely rich experience, and would never be careless because of the night's war. After Lu Yao entered a little food and water, he led his entourage guards to patrol various places regardless of his fatigue. After seeing several important places one by one, it was late at night. He walked to a relatively empty place, and the night wind blew to the sweaty military uniform during the day, which suddenly made people feel cold and couldn't help but sneeze a few times.
Pang Yuan's temperament is more sleek than Ma Rui, so he immediately took a little step forward: "General, take a break early. I think there will still be war tomorrow, so I can't work too hard."
Lu Yao didn't bother to pay attention to him, so he stood up and looked around. After confirming that the group was far from the military tents everywhere, he whispered: "Go and invite Lu Jun into my tent. Be careful and don't let irrelevant people discover it."
The four words "no matter who is involved", Lu Yao emphasized his tone.
Pang Yuan felt Lu Yao's eyes sweeping like lightning, and his heart sternly, bowed and said, "I understand!"
