947: Chapter 907: Entering the Barracks 947: Chapter 907: Entering the Barracks At the entrance to the Northwestern garrison’s military encampnt, Lu Chuan passed through the gate and entered the heart of the camp.
Two golden flags with the large character “Yuan” were planted at the gate.
As soon as Lu Chuan stepped inside, soldiers imdiately ca to greet him.
“You must be Young Master Lu Chuan?”
A soldier with a sheepish smile approached.
Lu Chuan gave a slight nod, “That’s right, it’s .”
“We’ve received secret orders from the City Lord, knowing that you would co, so we’ve made all preparations in advance.”
“Please follow , we’re going to et General Yuan.”
Lu Chuan followed the soldier, heading towards the main tent.
“The one in charge of this Northwestern garrison is our City Lord’s brother, General Yuan Gang.
He has under his command a full twenty thousand soldiers, and he himself possesses formidable strength, battle-hardened, a valiant and capable general.”
“You talk to him first.
He hasn’t had much to do lately and has been staying within the encampnt.”
The soldier led Lu Chuan to an old, modest residence, opened the gate, and they entered the courtyard.
The courtyard was not large, with a pavilion in the center, surrounded by a pond created around it.
The soldier guided Lu Chuan towards the pavilion.
Following the stone path to the pavilion, they saw a burly, muscular man sitting there, lounging in a chair, drinking deeply from a clear wine.
On seeing Lu Chuan approach, he straightened up, his face slightly flushed, and looked at Lu Chuan, asking, “You…
are you the assistance my brother called for?”
Lu Chuan stepped forward and sat opposite him, “That’s right, my na is Lu Chuan.
Nangong Qianying has entered Tiannan City, and his purpose is not only to seek revenge on but also to deal with your City Guards.”
“Heh, that old fool is simply muddled.
With just the Nangong family, they’re still dreaming of fighting against our City Guards?
Our Yuan family army can wipe them out with ease.
If they dare, then bring it on.
I guarantee they will all co but never return, making them understand the consequences of offending the Yuan family army!”
He said with disdain in his voice, brimming with confidence.
Lu Chuan shook his head helplessly, “Haven’t you heard?
You should know Liu Qiming, right?”
“Of course, I know him.
Although his strength is not equal to mine, he holds a high position in the military, a fine warrior.
What about him?”
“He’s dead, didn’t you know?”
Lu Chuan’s eyebrows knitted slightly as he earnestly looked at Yuan Gang.
Yuan Gang straightened up, eyes intent on Lu Chuan, demanding, “Don’t talk nonsense.
In Tiannan City, who would dare to kill Liu Qiming?
If you are deceiving , I won’t spare you, even if you are a friend of my elder brother!”
“What I say is true, Liu Qiming died at the hands of Nangong Qianying, and he died a horrible death!”
“The Nangong family is coming for you and now; we are, as it stands, grasshoppers on the sa string.”
Yuan Gang slamd the table, bellowing angrily, “Nangong beasts, have they gone mad?
To dare make a move on us, are they looking for death?
If they’re looking for death, then bring it on.
I swear I’ll utterly cripple them!”
“To dare kill General Liu, they’re really courting death.
As a key warrior of the Yuan family army, if I don’t seek vengeance, who will respect afterward!”
“Damnable creatures, this pack of animals, I’ll make my move right now and kill them all.
We’ve been too nice to them on normal days, letting them forget who really runs Tiannan City!”
Yuan Gang shouted angrily.
Lu Chuan patted the table and looked up at Yuan Gang, “Sit down, don’t get so worked up, you don’t need to go looking for them, they’ll co knocking on our door.”
“Just wait here, they’ll be here soon enough, and then you’ll see their ambition.”
“Hmph!
I won’t just wait here for death, I want to take the initiative, to teach these bastards a lesson!”
Yuan Gang got up suddenly, full of fighting spirit and ready to set off.
Lu Chuan sighed helplessly, “What are you rushing for?
If we really want to take revenge on the Nangong family, you won’t have to lift a finger, Yuan Tiancheng will surely be the first to act.”
“He hasn’t done so, instead he has here waiting, don’t you understand?
Nangong Qianying is extraordinarily strong.”
Yuan Gang shook his head, clearly puzzled, “Is that really what my brother intends?
Just sitting here, waiting for them to co, then falling into a passive position, will we still be able to fight?”
Lu Chuan continued, “We can make so preparations, so when they co, we can handle them more easily.”
“What on earth is my brother thinking, on his own territory, to still take things slow with them?
Just gather the troops and finish them off!
Eradicating this band of traitors is what the City Guards are supposed to do!”
He spoke with great confusion, his anger with nowhere to vent.
Lu Chuan stood up and ca to his side, patting his shoulder, “Like this—for you to tighten the defenses and perhaps set so traps…
when the enemy attacks, we’ll have an easier ti fighting.”
“Why did my brother send you to help?
Are you alone strong enough?
What help can just one person provide?
My brother must be out of his mind.”
Lu Chuan shrugged helplessly, “It’s quite normal for you to be unaware; you may not believe in my strength, but you must trust your brother’s judgnt.
He sent here to intercept and kill the incoming enemies.”
“I can do that myself, my strength is no less than yours!”
He said, clearly unimpressed, looking as though he didn’t need Lu Chuan’s help.
“General Yuan, do you know why Nangong Qianying rushed back in a rage this ti, to seek revenge on ?”
“Why?
Did you provoke them?”
Yuan Gang suddenly beca curious and sized up Lu Chuan.
Lu Chuan spoke indifferently, “Because I destroyed the Nangong family’s influence in Beihe City, killed Nangong Qianying’s son and grandchildren, practically ensuring their line ends with him; so now, there’s deep hatred between us.
My coming to Tiannan City is rely to completely eradicate the Nangong family, preventing any form of retaliation from them.”
Upon hearing Lu Chuan’s words, Yuan Gang was stunned; he looked at Lu Chuan, his bushy brows furrowed together.
“What?
You ended Nangong Qianying’s line?
You did this?”
“Impossible, his son is Nangong Tian, and his strength is trendous!”
“Nangong Tian’s strength is much greater than mine!”
Yuan Gang looked at Lu Chuan with disbelief.
“Indeed, I personally killed Nangong Tian, no one left in the Nangong family is a match for , so Nangong Qianying had no choice but to co out of seclusion,” Lu Chuan confird.
Yuan Gang took a deep breath, “Killing Nangong Tian…
if that’s true, then you indeed are sowhat capable, it seems my brother does have insight, no wonder, he only sent you alone to help .”
Lu Chuan shook his head slightly, “I am here so that you can help , to eliminate the Nangong family; it’s not for to help you.”
