Three Kingdoms: I don’t want to fall in love in troubled times

Chapter 80 Don't You Want It Too?
Changan.

Lu Lingqi and a dozen personal guards took advantage of the cover of night and quietly made their way to the outer city.

The enemy on this trip is the Jinfan Rangers who occupy several blocks.

Although this society only appeared recently, the leader is capable of fighting, the members are elite, and it is said that there are many scholars working for them.

There are civil and military personnel, each performing their own duties. In terms of configuration, it is undoubtedly the top grade.

It's a pity that Gan Xingba, the leader, seems to be unprogressive. Apart from the initial expansion, he hasn't made any move for a long time.

It is clear that it is in a great situation, but it has not moved away from its existing territory.

With a great reputation and moderate strength, he is an excellent training target. The most important thing is that Lu Lingqi's personal guards found out that Gan Xingba, the leader of the Jinfan Rangers, had a close relationship with Xu Zimao, so they drove them out of Chang'an and also You can severely humiliate that scoundrel.

Lu Lingqi immediately made the decision and decided that it was them. This time it was the debut battle of the Lu family tiger girl!
According to common sense, a dozen veterans from the Bingzhou frontier army might only need a single charge to defeat a small gang head-on.But Lu Lingqi still decided to play with the art of war. After all, practicing is the real purpose.

This is a rare opportunity for practical operation. If the future General Xiao Lu leads troops for the first time, it will be too ugly to end up with gangsters fighting each other.

"The Art of War" by Sun Tzu says: It is as fast as the wind, as slow as the forest, as aggressive as fire, as motionless as a mountain, as unpredictable as the clouds, and as moving as thunder.

So she deliberately chose the time just after dark, before curfew, just to win this battle beautifully.

"Hurry up," Lu Lingqi turned around and urged, "the curfew will start soon!"

Remember, it’s as fast as the wind!
She was full of energy, but the guards behind her were suffering unspeakably - Lu Bu had always taken good care of them, fellow villagers from Bingzhou, and treated them quite well.

In addition, there is no need to go to the battlefield. Usually when Lu Bu is accompanying Dong Zhuo, he and his brothers go out to drink wine together. They have more money and less to do, which is very comfortable.

Now I have to follow the young lady to fight some little gangster who calls himself Jinfan Ranger in the middle of the night. It's really a slap in the head.

Having said that, I can only lament that Hun will have to pay it back sooner or later. Don't we have to pay back the benefits we got from Mr. Lu now?
The guards cheered up and struggled to catch up with the tall figure in front of them.

"strangeness."

According to the art of war, after sending people to find out the enemy's situation, Lu Lingqi looked at the still quiet street and wondered, "Don't they have sentry posts?"

That’s not what the art of war says!

"Please give the order, Miss." The leading guard captain yawned, "Brothers have all fought against the Huns. What kind of scene have you not seen?"

As the elite of the Bingzhou border army, they indeed have this qualification.
Since the Xiongnu split into northern and southern parts, the southern Xiongnu has slowly integrated into the political system of the Eastern Han Dynasty. As a vassal state, it obeys the control of the Xiongnu Zhonglang General, while the northern Xiongnu has slowly died out, and the rest are scattered in the Western Regions and Xianbei.

However, small groups of Xiongnu herdsmen still went south from time to time, trying to recreate the wars of their ancestors. They held bows and sabers and threw rain of arrows like locust swarms at the Han troops who held their positions.

These soldiers who had seen nomadic people completely scorned any powerful people - no matter how powerful they were, how did they compare to the Huns?
"Um"

Lu Lingqi felt something was wrong, but she couldn't tell.

The thought of leaving flashed through my mind, but was quickly abandoned again - could it be that the tiger girl of the Lu family couldn't even do this?
She asked herself, and she agreed to take them on an expedition, but in the end she just took a walk, what would the guards think of her?
As a general, you must practice what you preach!

"Okay then", Lu Lingqi nodded and agreed with the captain, and then ordered: "There is no need to kill people, just teach them a lesson and capture their leader Gan Xingba."

As long as Xu Zimao's brother is caught, won't he be left to his own devices?
Before giving the order, she carefully reviewed the preparations for the battle - the general's bodyguards could legally possess armor. Against an opponent of the Jinfan Ranger level, there was no chance of losing, and the curfew was not yet in effect. time, and there will be no unnecessary misunderstandings caused by the patrolling Forbidden Army.

"let's go!"

With the nervousness and joy of the first time, she ordered.

A tiger father has no dog daughter!
In order to accommodate the dozen or so Tai students who follow him, the residences of the core Jinfan Ranger staff are all connected together. If you search casually on this street, you will definitely not escape.

"Where is the Jinfan Ranger?" The captain of the soldiers put his hands on his chest and used himself as a mallet to smash open a door. "Come out and fight me!"

The air inside was turbid, and wailing could be heard from time to time. When he saw the scene in the room clearly, he was stunned.

I saw more than a dozen people lying on the couch, all with thin and jagged ribs, furrows on their skin, and sunken eyes.

Such people were everywhere in the outer city, and he recognized them at a glance as hungry people.

Following this collision, the whole street began to become chaotic. After a while, a boy of sixteen or seventeen years old, who had not yet been crowned, found him and called himself Sun Zi of Taiyuan.

Sun Zi suppressed his anger and politely asked these military masters the reason for their visit to Jinfan Yishe.

Yishe?

Not a club?
The captain of the soldiers was speechless. In this case, he could only temporarily hold Sun Zi back and wait for the young lady to make a decision.

"Absurd!" Lu Lingqi clearly didn't believe Sun Zi's words, "All the famous Jinfan Rangers in Chang'an were turned into philanthropists in just a few days?"

"Continue searching," she ordered: "This must be used by Gan Xingba as a front!"

There was a rush of chickens and dogs, and the doors were opened one after another, but all they could see were the figures of hungry people - it was a charity house that provided porridge and relief during the day and provided them with a rest at night.

Lu Lingqi felt that her uneasiness might come true. "Retreat," she said to the captain of the soldiers, "We may have been trapped."

But at this time, Lu Lingqi was like a fish caught in a net, and escape was impossible.

Jinwu's two hundred cavalrymen rushed over after hearing the news, and these 200 people blocked the street from beginning to end, completely surrounding them.

"According to the order of Wang Situ, we are going to capture the powerful and crazy people." The long-lost scholar Sun Rui appeared again, pointed at the guards and said sternly, "These people attacked Yishe and committed heinous crimes. Catch them all!"

"We are the personal guards of Lu Fengxian, the Marquis of Duting." The captain of the personal guards quickly went to Shi Sunrui to explain, "What kind of powerful and crazy gangsters are we?"

However, Shi Sunrui had served as a government official for the domineering general Liang Ji. He had never seen any powerful people. The mere dozen or so personal guards of Duting Marquis were not enough to make him bend the law for personal gain, so he still ordered these people to be taken back.

The guards all surrendered - no matter how hard they fought, as the marquis' guards, they would not be able to openly confront Zhi Jinwu in the capital.

Lu Lingqi was acquainted with Sun Rui. There was a girl who occupied three seats at the banquet and drank heavily. He may not forget it until his death.

Seeing that she did not directly participate in the attack on Yishe, Shisunrui simply pretended not to see it and let her go.

[The case of the attack on Yishe by the guards of Dutinghou was transferred to the official of Zhongdu. According to Wang Yun's instructions, you will give your opinion on how to deal with the security incidents in Chang'an City and report it to him for approval. 】

[You think it’s time to visit the Lu Mansion—in the name of being invited to practice martial arts. 】

After Xu Jiashu informed him of his intention, the Bingzhou man who was the gatekeeper let him in.

The Marquis Mansion that Lu Bu snatched with his own hands was probably the best house in Chang'an City. It was equipped with wing rooms, gates, courtyards, main halls, and watchtowers. Except that there was no farming inside, it was more like a manor than an ordinary manor.

He walked through the gate and found that there were many targets planted in the courtyard, all painted with human figures. The target's eye area - that is, the head was filled with arrows, and the original appearance could not be seen clearly.

Xu Jiashu thought to himself: This thing is not depicting me, right?
He continued to walk to the hall, and heard a heroic voice saying charmingly: "Stop whoever comes!"

Following where he came from, he saw a tall figure standing on a watchtower in the distance, holding a bow and aiming at where he was.

He took half a step back very seriously and said loudly: "My Excellency, Xu Jiashu, is here to visit at the invitation of the emperor!"

If this disciple had come to visit alone before, Lu Lingqi would definitely have kicked him out, but since it was her father who invited her, she still wanted to meet him for the sake of the first owner of the family.

"Come in," she drew her bow and let out an arrow, shooting through a bull's-eye not far from Xu Jiashu.

The arrow she used was of the style used by the Huns. It was equipped with a chirping hammer and made a sharp whistling sound when it was shot. The arrow just flew from a high place at such a high speed that Xu Jiashu couldn't see its trajectory at all. I felt an explosion in my ears, and the bullseye next to me exploded.

hiss--

Xu Jiashu took a breath. If it was a life and death fight, he would definitely not be her opponent.

After getting permission, he continued deeper and walked inside the Hou Mansion.

Even the servants of Lu Bu's family live in a better place than Huanjie's kennel. It's really irritating that people are better than people.

After finally reaching the main hall, Xu Jiashu finally saw the real owner of this trip.

"What did my father ask you to do?"

Lu Lingqi stood opposite with her hands clasped in her hands, her nose wrinkled, and she looked extremely disgusted.

Sister, don’t let me catch you!
Yaojiang's voice and smile suddenly appeared, and Xu Jiashu told the truth, "You have something to say before me. If I want to practice martial arts, I can come and visit the girl."

"Oh?" Lu Lingqi's eyes suddenly lit up, she couldn't believe there was such a good thing in the world, "Since it is my father's arrangement, let's get started!"

Saying that, he was about to take off his bow and arrow.

Xu Jiashu laughed wildly in his heart - my round is not over yet!

"Before we start, I suddenly remembered something." He stretched out his hand and made a "wait a minute" gesture.

"What's the matter? Tell me quickly."

She is in a hurry.

"It just so happened that a case of attacking Yishe was transferred to my hands recently." Xu Jiashu pretended to be distressed, "But Wang Situ had something to say first. To govern Chang'an, heavy codes are needed."

Lu Lingqi's pupils shrank. It had only been one night, and she hadn't had time to inquire about the whereabouts of the guards.

"For such a big case," Deng Tuzi spread his hands, "it's not an exaggeration to execute him."

Lu Lingqi promised her father not to let the guards get hurt.

Xu Jiashu smiled crookedly and said the line he had been waiting for for a long time, "Miss Lu, you don't want these loyal guards to die, do you?"
