Lu Chang's family was very strict in disciplined Lu Song and Lu Bai since childhood. Not only did they hire teachers from all walks of life to teach by example, they also took them out from time to time to visit relatives and friends, broaden their horizons and see how different classes can make a living.

Lu Bai knew since childhood that he was the second son, and it was not his turn to take charge of the family business. He could only rely on himself to make a world and become a branch of the Lu family.

As for squatting at home and working for his elder brother Lu Song, his descendants will become managers of the Lu family, deacons and others. Judging from the expressions of people, Lu Bai will definitely refuse now.

So in the past three years, he has been studying abroad, trying his best to make friends with scholars, heroes and all useful people, and at the same time investigate and record the customs of people from all over the country, just to prepare independently in the future.

But he never expected that before he could start implementing his entrepreneurial plan, news came one after another at home - he said that his family was in danger of extermination, so he hid himself. Later, he wrote to say that his family was promoted to aristocrat, and he stepped through the aristocrat class in one step, reached the doctor class, and had a county as a fief.

The contrast between the two news before and after was too great. Lu Bai sent his personal book Tong Lu Shu to inquire about the news.

Before Lu Shu came back, the third news came again.

The fifth brother Lu Wu was unwilling to accept the marriage and ran away from home, so he went to Chu State.

Another reason why Jiao Heng, a Lu family who had guided his basic martial arts, was wrongly killed by the Chu people, his fifth brother Lu Wu rushed into Nanhe Mansion alone, directly cut down on the Nanhe Mansion to manage the affairs, and captured the land of the three mansions. With one person's strength, he was facing the Chu State head-on!

Even though Lu Bai has been wandering around in school for the past three years, he opened his mouth wide in surprise when he heard this news. He couldn't close it for a long time.

After being surprised, Lu Bai immediately turned around gorgeously, tore up the business entrepreneurship plan he wrote, drew his sword and called like-minded friends to meet up.

Now, Lu Bai's fellow disciples gathered around him, and everyone worked together to open up a world in Chu State and make it easier to leap into the social class. Lu Bai couldn't wait to set out, so how could he pay attention to the worries in his father's eyes?

"I will definitely do my best to assist my fifth brother Feng Bo in founding the country and set a foundation for my Lu family forever. I will never refuse to die for this!" Lu Bai's voice was sonorous and powerful, just like his determination.

Lu Jinhe wanted to speak but stopped, and finally said, "Go!"

Lu Bai nodded fiercely, turned around and jumped onto the horse, and took five trusted guards to the horse's hooves away.

Lu Jinhe turned around and walked into Lu Mansion, closed the door with his own hands, but left a gap.

He looked through the gap in the door and looked at his son's back far away. He closed the door until he could not see it at all. The war was coming, and he didn't know if the children could return safely.

Looking down from the head of Songjing, the chariots and horses were winding forward like a long dragon. Elite infantry guarded both sides. The chariots and horses in the front were no longer visible, and there were still a large group of chariots and horses behind them that had not yet set off.

The official road is filled with dust and can be seen from miles away.

The Lu family's comprehensive mobilization this time showed that the wealth and manpower were as rich as a country, and Songjing was looking sideways inside and outside.

"The Lu family is so rich? There are at least thousands of people in such powerful soldiers, so the government won't pursue it?" The three scholars looked at the convoy where there was no beginning or end in the teahouse next to the official road, and one of them said in amazement.

There are many wealthy merchants these days, but I have never heard of Hao Cheng like this - it's fine to have that long convoy, but the infantry guarding both sides of the convoy were all wearing leather armor and long swords, and they walked neatly and well-trained.

"The Lu family is not simple. The Songjing Incident that day was the Lu family who took action to turn the tide and gave the current King of Wu to the throne - now there are two doctors in the Lu family, which are very popular." Another scholar said.

"I think the Lu family has ulterior motives and has gathered so many elite soldiers, food and grass, lurking near Songjing, with their poor business, and what do they want to do?" The third person disagreed.

"Brother Liu, I see that the Lu family has exposed such forces this time, and they will be suspicious when they turn back - maybe the skill of protecting the sky can protect them for a while, but they can't protect them for a lifetime."

"Haha, after all, I am a businessman who is a low-key businessman with short-sightedness. Once he is proud of himself, he will forget the importance of the matter and seek death sooner or later."

The three scholars all laughed.

The Lu family suddenly broke the class and was promoted to a doctor, which actually made many traditional nobles dislike each other. Some people naturally would not say anything when they knew the inside story, but there were also many small nobles who were not well-informed and disdained the Lu family.

Of course, the King of Wu was not worried about the many soldiers and horses mobilized by the Lu family. He stood high on the city wall and looked around Songjing, heading towards the Lanshui River to the large group of chariots and horses. The two emotions of ambition and worry were mixed together to form an indescribable taste.

Most of these tens of thousands of people were the ones that Wu Guoan had inserted into. Such a good opportunity was once a lifetime. Even his grandfather Luo Gan resigned from his position as a general, changed his name and surname, and mixed it with him to the State of Chu. As the King of Wu, how could he miss such a good opportunity?

But if it is defeated - although the Lanshui natural danger is still there, Wu State will have no hope for at least thirty years to counterattack Chu State.

Chu State, Chengdu, Wang Ting.

King Xiangtong of Chu was a little anxious, but his expression was soothing and calm. He looked at the general Qu Dazhong who bowed and bowed under the steps and slowly spoke, "Qu Aiqing rushed back from the border, and was exhausted all the way. Why don't you take a few more days off?"

"Thank you, the king, but the southern deer thieves are so rampant, so the old minister should set out as soon as possible to send Lu Wu's child away." Qu Dazhong is eight feet tall and nearly fifty years old. However, he has a lot of military skills and still has no sign of old age, and his voice is like a bell.

"——Well, since Qu Aiqing is anxious about state affairs, I will not stop him. Qu Aiqing, take the sword!" King Xiang of Chu and his wife untied the sword on his waist, threw it over and threw it over.

Qu Dazhong stretched out his hands, held the thrown sword, and bowed again: "Thank you, King."

"Although the deer thief does not have military tactics, he is amazingly brave. He often breaks the formation and kills the generals and seizes the flag. Qu Aiqing must be careful when he goes there. Qu Aiqing can use this sword to call the Wangting to worship ten people as personal guards. At the same time, with this sword doctor, you can kill first and then report." Xiang Tong said in a deep voice.

"King Xie, if you go there, you will definitely tie the deer and thief to the court, and cut it into pieces to the king's law."

"Hahaha, then I will wait for the good news." Xiang Tong laughed up on his back.

The State of Chu used 50,000 border troops and 50,000 imperial troops, and drew 200,000 soldiers from all counties and counties. The State of Chu was commanded by General Qu Dazhong, who was known as a 500,000 army and headed straight to the south in a mighty manner.

A large army operation of such a large scale cannot be concealed.

Therefore, spies from all over the world ran around the ground, and the flying pigeons and eagles used to send messages were flying around the sky.

Most of the Central Plains and the entire South are paying attention to this battle. Although everyone is basically not optimistic about Lu Wu, the nouveau riche who suddenly emerges, what if?

If the Chu State loses this battle, or if it only lasts for three to five months, the military, political and financial affairs of Chu State will inevitably be greatly weakened.

Among the five powerful countries in the Central Plains, Chu State is in the south. It is the best in all countries in terms of grain production, but the last in terms of military and horse battle formations - who doesn't want to take a bite of such soft persimmons?

It’s just that there are many rivers in the Chu State and cities are everywhere. The Chu people are good at bows and crossbows, which is difficult to attack.

If the Chu State reveals flaws when quelling the bandits this time, let alone the neighboring Yan and Lu States, even the South Korean Qi State, which are not close to the border, will want to get a share of the pie.
