Chapter 1646 Luzhou City

On the other side, after returning to the Shenhui Army, Dingjun Hou immediately ordered a meeting of his generals.

Killing the Grand Duke of Nanlu was only the first step. After the plan succeeded, the next step was to fully control the Nanlu Principality, which required a safe plan.

"My Lord, do you really want to cooperate with them?" Du Rulong asked cautiously.

Dingjun Hou glanced at him and said, "General Du, isn't what I said clear enough? You still have such doubts at this time?"

"But... Marquis, this is not a trivial matter!"

Dingjun Hou said, "This is certainly not a trivial matter. This is a major matter concerning the fate of many people, including me!"

"General Du, I know what you are worried about. Although the strength of Nanlu Principality is not as good as our Hengyue Principality, it also has tens of thousands of elite troops. Its strength should not be underestimated. It is not something that our Shenhui Army can handle..."

"But all this is based on the fact that Grand Duke Nanlu is still alive. As long as Grand Duke Nanlu dies, the entire Nanlu Principality will fall into a state of no leader, and tens of thousands of elite troops will be nothing but a pile of scattered sand. It is impossible for them to be our opponents!"

"So, although this action seems risky, it is actually not too risky. As long as we plan properly and don't make mistakes, the entire Nanlu Principality will soon fall into our control!"

Du Rulong was speechless.

There was nothing wrong with what Dingjun Hou said. There was only one problem, that is, all this must be based on the premise that Duke Nanlu suddenly died.

Du Rulong didn't know what Afeng said to Dingjun Hou that made him so confident about this matter, and he didn't consider the possibility of failure at all. After all, he was a powerful Duke-level person...

Du Rulong even suspected that Dingjun Hou in front of him was controlled by Afeng's magic...

"Old Du, I know what I am doing. I have never been so clear-headed as I am now in my life! So, please don't doubt it anymore, okay?"

Dingjun Hou's tone became friendly, but his eyes became stern.

Du Rulong's heart suddenly jumped.

He knew that this was the final ultimatum issued by Dingjun Hou to him.

There was no room for compromise in this matter. Either fully support and cooperate with his decision, or keep this secret forever...

"Yes, I obey your order!" Du Rulong replied.

Soon, all the generals gathered together and the meeting officially began.

Everyone was surprised to hear that they were going to leave Xihai City and turn around to prepare to blockade and control the Nanlu Kingdom, but this was an order from Marquis Dingjun himself, so everyone did not dare to question it and just followed it.

The specific implementation plan was soon determined. At Marquis Dingjun's order, everyone immediately rushed to various places. The entire Shenhui Army began to move slowly like a hideous and terrifying monster.

"Okay, now go and inform Brother Feng that you can come and meet us, and then go to Luzhou together!"

Finally, Marquis Dingjun told Du Rulong like this.

...

Luzhou is the capital of the Nanlu Kingdom.

After the two sides met, they traveled together.

At first, Fu Jing, the Lu brothers and others were very nervous. They paid close attention to the actions of the Shenhui Army every day, fearing that they would suddenly turn against them.

But as they got closer and closer to Luzhou, seeing the various performances of the Shenhui Army, everyone gradually put their minds at ease.

They were sure that the Marquis Dingjun was indeed not playing tricks, and that this army was indeed going to attack the Nanlu Kingdom. All the instructions issued by the army were in preparation for this.

Three days later, the army arrived outside the city of Luzhou.

Officials from the Nanlu Grand Duke's side came out of the city to greet them.

"Hahahaha... I wonder who it is, isn't it our Lord Feng?"

The leader walked towards the crowd with a long laugh, and it turned out to be the Nanlu representative who had attended the rally in Xihai City.

Of course, Lu Yu already knew his name at this time - Huang Jinnan.

"Lord Feng, weren't you very arrogant before? You also said that we were not qualified and asked us to send a more senior envoy to talk to you... Why are you like this now?" Huang Jinrong laughed wildly.

Lu Yu lowered his head, looked cold, ignored it, and continued to play the role of a prisoner.

They naturally couldn't walk into Luzhou City openly, so their current identity was the captives of the Shenhui Army.

Huang Jinnan wanted to continue to mock Fu Jing, but when he saw that Ding Junhou was already unhappy, he gave up the opportunity to continue to show off.

He turned to Ding Junhou and said, "All this is thanks to Ding Junhou. As soon as the marquis took action, he was unstoppable and captured easily! The Shenhui Army is indeed an elite division, and you are an invincible commander!"

Ding Junhou said coldly: "Where is Grand Duke Nan Lu? Why didn't he come out to greet me?"

As soon as these words came out, the faces of the people around him changed immediately.

Grand Duke Nangong's title is comparable to that of Duke Hengyue. Although there is a gap in the power of the two sides, their ranks are exactly the same. Ding Junhou said such a thing at this time, obviously treating the Nan Lu Kingdom as a subordinate of the Hengyue Kingdom.

Of course, the Nan Lu Kingdom also had bad intentions in asking Huang Jinnan to come out to greet Ding Junhou.

As Marquis Dingjun, his rival should at least be the son of Duke Nanlu. The Dukedom of Nanlu wanted to deliberately belittle him and give him a warning.

But what they didn't expect was that Marquis Dingjun was even more arrogant than them. He directly asked Grand Duke Nanlu why he didn't come.

"Arrogant! You, a little marquis, are worthy of our grand duke coming out to greet you? You are so shameless and shameless!" an official from the Nanlu Principality yelled angrily.

Marquis Dingjun sneered: "I don't distinguish between superior and inferior? I am shameless? Then what does it mean that you, a person without any title, speak rudely to me?"

"Go and call Grand Duke Nan Lu. I want him to explain to me face to face what is going on! Otherwise, I will not enter Luzhou City!"

Everyone was in an uproar. They didn't expect Marquis Dingjun's attitude to be so tough.

Huang Huangrong's expression changed several times.

It would definitely be impossible for Marquis Dingjun not to enter Luzhou City. Apart from anything else, the prisoners he brought with him were extremely important, and he definitely couldn't be allowed to take them away like this.

So, in the end, he took the initiative to stand up and said with an apologetic smile: "Master Hou, please calm down, my Grand Duke actually attaches great importance to Master Hou. He heard that Master Hou was victorious and wanted to escort the prisoners over. He had already prepared a celebration banquet for Master Hou... It’s a pity that I’m temporarily in a bad situation and it’s inconvenient to go out of the city to greet you. When you enter the city, my Grand Duke will definitely come out to greet you in person!”

Marquis Dingjun's face softened slightly and he said, "You can go in if you want me to, but my people can't stay outside. They all have to follow me into the city!"
