The young eunuch's complaints failed to resonate with Lu Yi.

In his mind, the spiritual light of his soul shook slightly, and Lu Yi sensed that there was a hint of dangerous aura in the apricot forest.

"The acting is a bit poor." Lu Yi sighed. "With tens of thousands of troops in front of us, my procession is so bright. These bastards, unless their biological father is Your Majesty, how dare they rob women in front of the army?"

The young eunuch who had just spoken suddenly froze.

Lu Yi turned around, stretched out his arm, and gently patted the young eunuch's shoulder: "You have grown up in the imperial city, you are too simple, too kind, and don't understand the dangers of the world. When you go out in the future, you must be careful and cautious."

A group of young eunuchs were so moved that they were about to burst into tears.

Hey, Lord Tianyang is really a caring family member. He knows that we, the group of servants, are 'simple' and 'kind', and are absolutely good people.

A group of officers from the Imperial Guards and Yulin Army looked at the young eunuchs with squinted eyes.

Although everyone is working for the royal family, you bunch of eunuchs guarding the palace, are you 'simple' and 'kind'?

The apricot blossoms are as red as fire and the grass is as green as a blanket.

At the edge of the apricot forest, a group of ferocious young men in fancy clothes threw two girls to the ground. Then, the sound of clothes being torn was heard from afar. The two girls' soft and weak cries for "help" like lambs also floated over.

Lu Jun and Lu Yi's expressions suddenly changed.

This place is not far from the apricot blossom forest, about a hundred feet. In this situation, how could the cries for help of two delicate and weak girls be heard so far?

"Come!" Lu Yi stretched out his hand to the side.

Ah Hu, who had been following Lu Yi silently, riding a black horse with bloody hooves and holding a demon-subduing pestle, came up to Lu Yi and handed him a javelin. There were a bag of thirty-six such javelins on Ah Hu's mount.

Lu Yi grabbed the javelin and shouted, and the black horse under him suddenly flew forward. After running more than twenty feet, Lu Yi waved his right hand, and there was a bang. A ball of white gas spurted out in front of his arm, and the javelin flew straight into the apricot blossom forest with a sharp sound of breaking through the air.

A young man who was laughing wildly and busy undressing suddenly looked up.

The javelin whizzed towards him, and the young man let out a strange cry, his body swaying left and right, leaving behind a few afterimages, and slid to the side more than ten feet away with a "swish".

The javelin that was coming at him with great force was extremely strange. When it was about three inches away from the young man, it suddenly stopped and fell to the ground weakly.

"Ha, ha ha!" Lu Yi clapped his hands and laughed: "This man, you have great skills. Hehe, circle him up for me!"

Lu Yi pointed with his hand, and the officers in the Imperial Guards, Yulin Army, and the Palace Guards shouted loudly. More than three thousand cavalrymen whistled out from the ranks and formed a goose feather formation to encircle the young men in gorgeous clothes from both sides.

A dozen young men retreated at the same time. Two ragged girls also jumped up, laughing like silver bells. Their bodies were as light as flowing clouds. They slowly rose to the branches of the apricot tree several feet above the ground and walked away lightly on the branches.

The cavalry chased to the edge of the apricot forest. Several captains whistled in unison, and the large group of people stopped.

In the apricot forest, countless ancient trees are scattered around, and the terrain is extremely unfriendly to cavalry.

God knows what ambush is inside?

These elite imperial guards and imperial guards would not rashly rush into the dense forest to chase after a small group of enemies.

"What kind of play is this?" Lu Jun asked with a frown.

"They will show up again." Lu Yi smiled indifferently and waved forward.

The cavalry that had been sent out came back with the javelins thrown by Lu Yi, and the large group of people continued to move forward.

By noon, the large group of people had galloped westward for nearly a thousand miles. There was a fork in the road ahead, and a branch road turned vertically to the south.

The military advisor who was accompanying the army came to ask for instructions, and Lu Yi immediately gave the order for the army to cook some food on the side of the road and take a rest.

At this intersection, there was a large camp on the roadside, with the flag of the imperial army flying high above the camp. Behind the camp, huge granaries stood tall.

Just like in Queqiaofang, Lu Yi sent someone to negotiate, and the camp opened its granary and allowed Lu Yi's subordinates to take food supplies.

Although there were no live sheep or pigs from the Partridge House, the camp's granary was stockpiled with a large amount of bacon, salted fish, ham, and sausages, all of which were good things that could be easily preserved for a long time.

Soon, the aroma of rice and meat wafted through the camp.

When the rice was cooked and Lu Yi's subordinates began to enjoy the meal, they heard the dull sound of horse hooves. The vanguard corps led by Zhuge Li came running along the road like a giant black python.

A high-pitched voice of a military commander could be heard from afar: "General, keep going, keep going... Set up camp at 19:00-21:00."

The army rushed past at a roar. Fortunately, the road of Dayin was a relic of ancient times. It was very clean and dust-free. Zhuge Li's vanguard army rushed past at full speed without raising any smoke or dust.
Lu Yu led Lu Jun, Lu Yi and the others to stand on a small mound by the roadside, overlooking the army passing by. When Zhuge Li's vanguard troops had all passed by, a general of the imperial army laughed, "There were at most 200,000 people, but they actually said that they sent out 500,000 vanguard troops?"

Lu Yi sneered, "It's their old tricks. Once you get used to it, it's fine. However, if Zhuge Li's vanguard corps is defeated."

Lu Jun said leisurely: "We will definitely lose the battle, but isn't it better to lose? If we lose three or five battles in a row, the number of soldiers on the books will be wiped out. How much will the pension for 300,000 people be?"

The faces of a group of officers and soldiers from the Imperial Guards and Yulin Army became very strange.

Dayin's imperial guards and Yulin troops still abide by the rules, and things like drawing salaries without doing anything are basically impossible.

Do the ministers of culture and education dare to do this?

And they did this in the middle of a large army to suppress a riot?

The army galloped past, and on the other side of the road, the dozen or so young men in gorgeous clothes that I had seen in the morning rode white deer and rushed out of the apricot forest. These white deer were huge and graceful, and they ran very fast. When they rushed out of the apricot forest, Lu Yi judged that the speed of these white deer was at least twice that of the blood-hoofed black horse.

Accompanied by the sound of crisp hooves, more than a dozen white deer rushed to a distance of less than a hundred feet from the small mound where Lu Yi was standing. A dozen young men in gorgeous clothes rode back and forth, pointing at Lu Yi and making shrill laughs from time to time.

The faces of the officers around Lu Yi suddenly changed.

This is a provocation.

This is a naked provocation.

A group of bastards of unknown origin are not only provoking Lu Yi, but also provoking the dignity of the Dayin military.

A general of the imperial army took two steps forward and shouted sternly, "Do you want to implicate the nine clans?"

A young man suddenly jumped up. He stood on the back of a galloping white deer, pointed in this direction and laughed: "Who are you trying to scare? Kill my entire clan? Touch your head and see if it's safe."

"Lord Tianyang Lu Yu, you are in big trouble." The young man shouted recklessly: "Just now I thought you would rush into the apricot blossom forest to save the beauty. We can kill you and the matter will be over."

"I didn't expect you to be so cunning. Don't be fooled!"

"You're in big trouble. We brothers are determined to kill you... Why don't you be a hero and come out and pick one of us brothers to fight to the death? How about that?"

Lu Jun, Lu Yi, and the officers around Lu Ying were so angry that they laughed out loud.

A dozen or so arrogant people of unknown origin actually wanted Lu Yi, a noble who controlled tens of thousands of troops, to fight them in a one-on-one duel to the death?

This kind of behavior seems very stupid.

If Lu Yi accepted this challenge, even if he won in the end and killed those young men, his reputation would be ruined - anyone who agreed to this challenge must be a fool, right?

Suddenly, the thunderous sound of horse hooves rang out.

A team of Gray Wolf Riders swooped out from the temporary camp of Lu Yi’s army.

Hundreds of Gray Wolf Riders, armed with powerful bows, rushed to a place less than fifty feet away from the young men. At a command, strong bows that were almost as tall as a person were pulled open, followed by dense armor-piercing arrows that rained down like heavy rain.

A dozen young men laughed strangely, and the white deer under them turned extremely lightly and rushed towards the apricot blossom forest.

The arrows caught up with them, but these young men pulled out folding fans, jade flutes, jade pipes and other items from their sleeves, and gently waved them behind them. A series of violent storms rose from the ground, and hundreds of arrows were blown back into the sky, flying dozens of feet high, and then fell headfirst, almost accidentally injuring the Canglang Riders who were chasing them from behind.

"Lu Yu, just wait, we will keep an eye on you along the way." The young man who had just stood on the white deer turned around and laughed at Lu Yu: "We are free anyway, we will play with you along the way. Hee, your head is mine!"

"Outrageous!" A general of the Yulin Army shouted angrily: "My Lord, this is simply, simply..."

A group of officers and soldiers were so angry that their faces turned purple and they kept stamping their feet.

"It's okay. Tell the brothers to be careful when setting up camp at night." Lu Yi smiled and said, "It seems that this is my personal grudge. Tsk, with such a high level of cultivation and such a majestic mount, which kind of enemy is this of mine?"

A group of officers stared at Lu Yi in a daze.

'Which kind of enemies?'

If I remember correctly, Lu Yi just turned sixteen. Where did all these enemies come from?

Lu Yi watched the young men riding on white deer and rushing into the apricot blossom forest. He pressed the hilt of his sword with his left hand and flicked his fingers. The Beiming Ring and the hilt of the sword collided lightly, making a crisp "ding ding" sound.

Very high in the sky, out of a white cloud, a large parrot slowly flew out.

Looking down from above, the big parrot stared at the group of young men riding horses and followed them into the depths of the apricot blossom forest.

Here, there are several soft felts spread on the ground, and several pretty girls in gorgeous clothes are placing various snacks and drinks on the felts, as if they were enjoying a leisurely picnic.
