Supreme Golden Palace

Chapter 59: Cavalry (Part )

After entering the camp with the other generals, Lu Shang took the main seat without hesitation.

He glanced around and said, "Everyone, I'm new to commanding troops, so I know the heavy responsibility is. I'll need your assistance in future military affairs."

A lieutenant stepped forward and said in a loud voice: "We, three thousand soldiers, will follow your lead!"

Lü Shang corrected him with a smile, saying, "It's not that you only follow my lead, but that you only follow the lead of the King of Support, the Emperor."

"Everyone, you should all know that war is about to begin in the northern border. For warriors like us, this is a heaven-sent opportunity to achieve great success, gain honors for our wives and children. I hope you will work together with me to achieve this great cause."

"General Yan Rui,"

"General Xiao Ji,"

"General Huo Xiao,"

"General Ling Yue,"

The four of them said in unison: "We are willing to work together with the general to achieve great things."

"Everyone, please pay close attention to the training of the troops. You can also coordinate among yourselves and see what kind of formation is suitable for our three thousand soldiers."

Lu Shang said, "If you have the ability, don't hide it. Show what you have learned and train these three thousand soldiers well. I will credit you with a merit."

The lieutenant generals responded: "We will obey your orders!"

After the generals left, Lu Shang had his men take out their biographies and began to read them carefully.

The so-called biography is the personal resume of these generals, recording their family lineage, place of origin, year of birth, and their achievements and merits.

After Lu Shang carefully reviewed it, he sighed, "The old man actually transferred these four people to my command. He really has good intentions."

You won't know until you see the resumes of these four generals. They all joined the army during the Northern Zhou Dynasty, experienced countless battles, and climbed out of the dead.

In such a dangerous world, they have been able to serve in the military for twenty years. Personal ability is one thing, but also requires considerable luck.

Perhaps freaks like Lu Shang and Li Yuanba are just exceptions, but there are still some generals who can defeat thousands of enemies.

Therefore, it really took some thought for King Kaoshan to transfer these four people to Lu Shang's command.

"With these four people here, I don't have to worry about my 3,000-strong vanguard brigade anymore."

"Well, and Fang Zi'an, since I've already been appointed as the vanguard of the Northern Expedition, I can't hold the position in the Secretariat concurrently. It's a pity to waste those books. I'll have to find an opportunity to go to the Secretariat to read them next time."

"House An,"

Lu Shang thought for a moment, took out a blank letter from the table, dipped the brush lightly in ink, and lightly drew a few strokes on the blank letter.

"You're an eighth-rank soldier. Since I promised you a future, this is a good one. A soldier's position, handling paperwork and military affairs, is a reward for your hard work!"

From the ninth rank of the Secretariat, he skipped several levels and directly joined the Northern Expedition Army as an eighth rank soldier.

This is because Lu Shang relied on the fact that he was a relative of the royal family, and that the commander-in-chief of the army, Wang Yanglin, treated him like his grandson-in-law. Any other general in the military would never dare to so blatantly put personal interests above public interest.

But the benefits are also obvious. With this living sign installed on the house, there is no need to worry about these generals not working hard.

After all, the example of selling horse bones for a thousand gold coins is right in front of us, so naturally there are many people willing to work for Lu Shang.

"Someone is coming,"

After Lu Shang called out, the guards outside the camp came in and said, "Send this letter of appointment to Fang Zi An's home in the east lane of Tongyifang."

After finishing all the matters in the camp, Lu Shang stood up and walked out of the tent.

At this time, the sky gradually darkened, and the afterglow fell on the training ground, stretching the soldiers' shadows extremely long.

Lu Shang looked at the soldiers who were busy training, and saw that the four lieutenant generals were busy with their official duties. He nodded slightly and strolled out of the military camp.

——————Outside the gate,
Lu Shang took the reins handed to him by the guard, looked at the neighing Purple Lightning Frost, and gently stroked the horse's mane.

"Walk,"

He jumped on his horse, and with the purple lightning and frost on his back, he sped away. In no time, he arrived at the Gwanghwamun Gate in Daxing City from the Zhengbei Army Camp.

The gatekeeper in front of Gwanghwamun watched Lu Shang riding past, and watched Lu Shang go away until his back disappeared at the end of the street, then turned around and continued to guard the city gate.

Lu Shang rode on the Purple Lightning Frost and walked leisurely along Suzaku Street towards home.

There are many shops on the street and pedestrians are coming and going frequently. As he walked, he looked at the prosperous scenes on both sides of the street.

As the sky grew darker and he reached a narrow alley, a sudden cry of crying caught his attention.

What really surprised Lu Shang was that he also sensed a sinister aura. This aura was sinister and treacherous, contrary to the righteousness of heaven and earth.

Lü Shang has been using the true fire of the sun and the true water of the moon to cleanse his body these days, practicing the Yin-Yang Induction, and often coming into contact with the positive energy of heaven and earth, so he is extremely sensitive to evil energy.

"what?"

Lu Shang suddenly pulled the reins and looked in the direction of the sound. He saw that the door of a house not far away was half-open. Dim light shone through the crack of the door, casting mottled shadows on the ground.

Instinctively, he dismounted, took off the water-ground bamboo whip beside the saddle, put the thunder knife on his waist, and walked quickly towards the house.

Before he got close, he heard a woman screaming from inside the house.

Then, there was the sound of shattering porcelain and falling tables and chairs. Lu Shang's heart trembled, and he immediately reached out and pushed open the door.

"Ghost? Demon?"

Lu Shang was quite curious about ghosts. He had never seen any ghosts since he was born.

The main reason was that he was born with nobility, and most ghosts and monsters did not dare to approach him. When he grew up a little, his true spirit was perfect, and he had the divine blood of Gonggong of the Mountains and Seas, so his natural physique was almost inhuman.

His qi and blood were like a furnace, immune to all kinds of evil. Not to mention the little ghosts and resentful ghosts, even the fierce ghosts and evil ghosts dared not get within three feet of Lu Shang.

Therefore, this also led to the fact that although Lu Shang knew that there were indeed various gods, demons and monsters in the world of Jambu, he had never actually seen the true form of the demons and monsters.

"I want to see what the hell this is."

Lu Shang stepped into the house and looked around, only to see that the house was in a mess inside and outside.

Tables and chairs were scattered on the ground, and the floor was littered with broken dishes.

A middle-aged woman was curled up in the corner, her face covered with tears and trembling, obviously frightened.

When she saw Lu Shang, especially after seeing Lu Shang's clothes and armor clearly, she felt like she had grabbed the last straw and was about to speak, but then covered her mouth in fear.

Lu Shang frowned and glanced around the house with bright eyes, but he didn't find anything unusual.

Afterwards, he comforted the middle-aged woman and said, "Don't be afraid, I'm here, don't be afraid!"

Just then, a gust of cold wind blew, and the candle on the table shook violently a few times and went out.

The room instantly fell into darkness, and the silence was so eerie that it made people's hair stand on end.

"Humph, you have such a petty trick, yet you dare to act like a ghost."

Faced with the sudden change, the middle-aged woman was almost scared to death, but Lu Shang just sneered.

Boom!

He swung the water-ground bamboo steel whip, and all the strength in his body exploded like thunder. The ground cracked, and the sand and gravel were swept up by the air waves, making a sharp whistling sound.

"Die to me!!"
