    In Zhuxian City, south of the city.

    In a spacious mansion, an old man with a bright head sits on the main seat.

    The old man¡¯s name is Lu Zhou. He has just turned sixty and is the head of the Lu family in various counties.

    The Lu family in Zhuxian County is the largest family in Zhuxian County and owns many industries in Zhuxian County.  In addition to having properties in various counties, the Lu family also has family properties in other states, such as Yuzhou and Yangzhou.

    The Lu family is very powerful.

    Within the family, there are even masters who are in charge.

    It was precisely because the Lu family had a master in charge that Tao Dihu did not dare to make trouble, for fear of angering the Lu family, causing the Lu family to die, and he would not get any benefits.

    Lu Zhou was sitting in the hall, closing his eyes and concentrating, waiting for news.

    Lu Zhou knew the news about Wang Qi going south.

    Lu Zhou also knew about Wang Qi¡¯s many measures in Nanyang.  Because he knew many of Wang Qi's measures to govern in Nanyang, he knew that Wang Qi was not simple.  In particular, Wang Qi had just assumed the post of Nanyang County Magistrate, and in the blink of an eye, he became the Prime Minister of Langya Kingdom.

    This strength is not simple.

    Being able to become the Prime Minister in a blink of an eye is not an easy plan.

    Lu Zhou welcomed Wang Qi when he went south.

    Tao Dihu messed up all the counties and made them a mess.  The counties that were originally relatively prosperous are now extremely desolate, which has affected the Lu family's business.

    "Tap! Tread!!"

    A burst of rapid footsteps came from outside.

    The housekeeper of the house entered.

    After the housekeeper stood still, he bowed respectfully and reported: "Master of the family."

    Lu Zhou opened his eyes and asked, "What's the matter?"

    The steward said: "The latest news is that the soldiers led by Wang Qi are still at most two hours away from the county seat. Even the time may be shorter. As for the county government, our people have reported that Tao Dihu  Instruct people to pack up the supplies and prepare to go south to Ju County with the supplies."

    Lu Zhou stroked his beard under his chin, thought for a while, and said in a deep voice: "We have finally reached this point. Tao Dihu finally can't hold it anymore and is ready to evacuate. This time, others can leave, and we from all counties  Supplies must be left behind.¡±

    The housekeeper asked: "What does the head of the family plan to do?"

    Lu Zhou¡¯s eyes were sharp and he ordered: ¡°Take people to block Tao Dihu¡¯s people and leave the supplies in the granaries of the counties.¡±

    When the housekeeper heard this, he was surprised and said: "Master, this is tantamount to starting a war with Tao Dihu."

    Lu Zhou said: "So what if we start a war?"

    After the housekeeper heard this, he immediately said: "I understand, I will mobilize the family's private soldiers. At the same time, let Master Zhong also participate in this battle to ensure nothing goes wrong."

    Lu Zhou stroked the beard under his chin and said: "Deploy the family's 1,300 private soldiers and ask Master Zhong to rush to the granary with me. It is enough to leave 200 people to guard the house."

    Master Zhong¡¯s name is Zhong Youguang.

    He is a master at the master level enshrined by the Lu family. He has been in the master level for many years and his strength is outstanding.  It was precisely because Zhong Youguang was in the Lu family that Tao Dihu did not dare to act rashly.

    Even though Tao Dihu took over the counties, he never targeted the Lu family.

    When the housekeeper heard Lu Zhou's arrangement, he was shocked and said: "Master, you personally led the team and took away Master Zhong. Although there are still two hundred people guarding the house, the strength is very empty. This is a very dangerous thing and is inappropriate.  !¡±

    Lu Zhou hummed and glanced sideways at the butler.

    In an instant, the housekeeper couldn't help but shuddered, and immediately said: "Old slave, go make arrangements immediately."

    Lu Zhou nodded.

    The housekeeper went to make arrangements, and within a quarter of an hour, everything was arranged.

    Lu Zhou put on a robe and armor, took the family's 1,300 private soldiers, and together with Zhong Youguang, left the Lu family and went to the location of the Beicheng County government granary.

    The location of the granary is in an open area, with few people living nearby.

    The road is open and easy to carry.

    Lu Zhou arrived with more than a thousand soldiers under his command.  Lu Zhou asked someone to step forward and order all the soldiers who were carrying supplies to stop.

    Tao Dihu himself is also here in the granary now.

    The county government has few supplies.

    Tong Guan arranged things, and Tao Dihu and Tong Guan followed them to the granary, urging the soldiers to pack the grain and money in the granary and prepare to leave with all the supplies.

    Tao Dihu narrowed his eyes and said, "Lu Zhou, what are you doing here now? Now?It¡¯s none of your business.  You take the people to retreat, otherwise, don't blame me for being rude.  "

    Lu Zhou said calmly: "Tao Dihu, why are you so rude?"

    Tao Dihu didn¡¯t answer. Instead, he looked at Lu Zhou for a while and suddenly said, ¡°Old man, are you bringing people to the granary to kill me, Tao Dihu?¡±

    Lu Zhou shook his head and said, "I won't kill you."

    Tao Dihu said: "Then what do you mean by bringing people with you now?"

    Lu Zhou smiled and said, "I'm here now to ask you to put down all your supplies and take your people out of the counties."

    "Hahaha¡­¡­"

    Tao Dihu laughed.

    He stared at Lu Zhou and said, "I didn't expect you, an old man, to be so big-hearted. Earlier, I occupied all the counties and you didn't see you jumping out. When Wang Qi went south, you couldn't wait to jump out to stop him.  Take all the supplies for yourself. You are really treacherous! You are worthy of being an old fox."

    Lu Zhou said calmly: "I brought people to stop it, not for the county government's supplies, but simply to stop the supplies. All the food and money in this granary will be sealed and handed over to the Prime Minister intact.  .¡±

    Tao Dihu gritted his teeth and said, "You are looking for death."

    Lu Zhou stroked his beard and said calmly: "I have lived a long life, but now I still haven't lived enough. Therefore, I don't want to die, nor do I want to die."

    "Tao Dihu, you can let people fight with my Lu family's private soldiers."

    "I, the Lu family, will stay with you until the end."

    "Of course, Zhong Youguang will also join the battle. I believe that with Zhong Youguang's leadership, not only can we block your army, but at least delay it for a while, it should be no problem."

    "According to the news I have received, the army led by Langya State Prime Minister Wang Qi is getting closer and closer to the county seat."

    Lu Zhou said with a smile on his lips: "You have been staying in the county seat, waiting for the arrival of the Prime Minister's army. No, we should not say arrival, as long as the Prime Minister's army is close. If you want to escape by then, it will be impossible."

    "Tao Dihu, what do you think?"

    "You are a smart person and you should know whether my words are true or false."

    "Before, when you were in the counties, I fought with you, which was meaningless. If we drove you away at that time, other thieves would come. But now, it is different. It is the prime minister who drives you away."

    "Now that you are retreating honestly, I will treat it as if nothing happened."

    "If you want to fight, I will accompany you to the end."

    There was a look of determination on Mr. Lu Zhou's face, and he said loudly: "What are you planning to do?"

    Tao Dihu was caught in a dilemma.

    He stared at Lu Zhou with murderous intent.  But Tao Dihu also knew that Lu Zhou had pinched his lifeline and deliberately targeted him like this.

    This is intentional.

    Once he really fights with Lu Zhou, time is delayed and the best time to evacuate is missed. When Wang Qi's army catches up with him, he will be in complete danger.

    Seeing this, Tong Guan persuaded: "Commander, withdraw the troops, we will withdraw directly. It is not appropriate to have a conflict with the Lu family at the moment. We will remember this hatred and take revenge later."

    "Withdraw troops!"

    Tao Dihu gave the order.

    Although he was angry, he was also very rational and knew that he had no choice.

    You can only evacuate.

    As Tao Dihu¡¯s order was issued, all the soldiers under his command put down their food and money and quickly left with Tao Dihu one by one.

    Lu Zhou looked at this scene with a smile on his face.

    It¡¯s done!

    He captured this batch of food and supplies from the county without spending a single soldier.  Next, when Wang Qi arrives, he can donate all this batch of food and money to Wang Qi.

    This is a gift from his Lu family.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
