From a son-in-law to a favorite of the empress

Chapter 864

August 16, noon, the sun was shining brightly.

Lucas sat quietly on a long bench, listening to his subordinates' reports.

"They walked and stopped along the way, and then arrived at this village."

"A murder happened here. Our soldiers shot a woman to death with a gun."

Lucas waved his hand and said, "Let's talk about the main points, not the trivial matters."

The soldier hurriedly said, "They went east from this village, in the direction of Jilongshe."

"According to the time estimate, they should have arrived at Jilongshe yesterday. Could the gold mine be there?"

Lucas didn't speak, but frowned.

Jilongshe? The translator this time was Cai Husheng, who was also from Jilongshe.

The gold mine happened to be in Jilongshe? Is it such a coincidence?

Lucas gave a hypothesis-if Zhou Yuan wanted to struggle, could he defeat forty Dutch warriors with flintlock guns with fifty unarmed soldiers?

This assumption naturally leads to the answer: Impossible.

Combined with the specific information - Zhou Yuan, who led the team this time, must have made sufficient preparations before. He has accomplished many impossible things in previous battles.

Then let's analyze the first assumption again. Can he defeat forty musketeers?

If it is Zhou Yuan, there is a certain possibility.

Lucas frowned even more tightly.

Based on the principle of caution, based on the nature of this war, which is a decisive battle with no retreat for both sides, the party that makes the first mistake will inevitably be at a disadvantage.

Facing a strong opponent, you must be stable and be perfect.

There is a certain possibility, which means that you must assume that he can do it!

Okay! Zhou Yuan! I will try to overestimate you! I will never underestimate you!

I assume that you can defeat forty musketeers!

Based on this assumption, tracing back the reasons for the success of the assumption, then there is only one variable.

Cai Husheng!

The destination is Jilongshe, Cai Husheng's territory.

There may be some unknown dangerous factors.

Of course, all this is speculation.

But caution is always right. If you don't make mistakes, Zhou Yuan will have no chance!

Lucas stood up and said in a deep voice: "Jilongshe! We can't go there!"

"There may be an ambush there!"

"We need to prepare more forces."

Lucas thought of a new way. He felt that the 38 people he brought were not enough. He wanted to mobilize the local Han people and aborigines. He wanted to gather a large army to surround the entire Jilongshe.

"There are more than 3,000 people in Jilongshe. I will gather 5,000 people to attack. Even if you, Zhou Yuan, have great ability to make all Jilongshe obedient and women and children become soldiers, I can still surround and annihilate you."

He said coldly: "Write a letter to the Governor, Lucas asks for support."

...

A wise man will make a mistake.

A fool will make a mistake.

Can you, Zhou Yuan, calculate the world and the people's hearts?

You can say that I, Chu Feifan, am brave but not wise, but you can't say that I don't know the current situation.

"I just praised him a few words, and he really treated me as a little Chu, haha!"

"Flattering does not cost anything, but what you earn is life and freedom. This is the truth I have realized."

Riding on the horse's back and running against the wind, Chu Feifan was extremely happy.

He looked at the child beside him and smiled, "What's your name, kid?"

The child said, "Cai Xiaoshuai."

Chu Feifan was stunned for a moment, looked at him carefully, and then said, "You look like a rotten persimmon that has been bitten by a dog, and you are still handsome?"

"When I was young, I was more than ten times or a hundred times more handsome than you."

Cai Xiaoshuai was not angry, but said slowly, "God created human beings, there is no distinction between beauty and ugliness, and appearance is just an insignificant skin."

Chu Feifan choked for a moment, and then said, "You are quite good at comforting yourself, but that is all self-deception."

"Handsome people often say that they are handsome, only ugly people deliberately emphasize morality and soul, because apart from that, they can't compare."

Cai Xiaoshuai said, "Follow God's will, you can get the blessing of angels, I will be reborn, and my current appearance is not permanently ugly."

Chu Feifan frowned, feeling inexplicably unhappy.

He snorted, touched his empty stomach, and said, "Let's go find a village to eat."

Cai Xiaoshuai took out a bundle and said, "There are cakes in it."

Chu Feifan said, "Eating cakes in such a hot day?"

Cai Xiaoshuai took out a wooden tube and said, "Just eat it with water, and it'll be fine."

This was not what Chu Feifan was interested in.

He chuckled and said, "Boy,, which village is the most remote here, the kind with few people? "

Cai Xiaoshuai said: "This is God's pastoral area, there is no such thing as remote, everyone is equal."

Chu Feifan glared and said: "God, God, can you stop calling this all the time? I practice the Quanzhen Shenlong Dao Gongfa taught by the Holy Mother, and I believe in the Three Pure Ones."

Cai Xiaoshuai finally looked at Chu Feifan and asked in confusion: "Are you a heretic?"

"Your mother! Talk to me nicely! "

Chu Feifan was a little angry. How could this brat be just like his mother's Western charlatan, saying all kinds of nonsense.

For a while, the two were speechless.

Chu Feifan ate the bread and drank the water, thinking carefully about where he should hide. He couldn't go to the mountains to be a savage. Not only would he have no clothes to change, but eating would also be a problem.

He still had to find a hidden village and hide for a few months. It is said that many of the indigenous people here need to hunt.

With my kung fu, hunting is a piece of cake. I can become a celebrity in the village in a few days.

Maybe I can even marry a few beautiful indigenous women, hahaha, hey... indigenous women?

Chu Feifan frowned and thought of the woman a few days ago.

He thought for a while, and then said: "Go to that... that community, just go straight in that direction, about 200 miles away."

Cai Xiaoshuai said: "Da'an Community. "

Chu Feifan thought, why not go see that beautiful girl?

Hahaha, what a fool! I have seen so many beautiful women, why do I have to see a dead person?

He immediately gave up the idea and said, "Boy, tell me which village is the most remote, I want to go and try it."

Cai Xiaoshuai said, "The village of the Seediq people, no one usually goes there."

Chu Feifan said, "Take me there now!"

Cai Xiaoshuai asked in confusion, "Isn't our destination southwest, the way we came here?"

Chu Feifan sneered, "Where I say go, we go!"

So the old and the young turned around and walked towards the depths of the mountains on the island.

It took them less than two hours to reach a village where a big fire had started and there were miserable cries.

"Fire!"

Cai Xiaoshuai's face changed drastically, and he said hurriedly, "Go and put out the fire! "

Chu Feifan said: "Why are you pretending to be a good person? Even if someone is burned to death over there, what does it have to do with us? Keep on going!"

Cai Xiaoshuai said: "There is a church over there! The church must not catch fire!"

He rode his horse towards the village.

Chu Feifan looked at Cai Xiaoshuai's back and couldn't help but snorted. What a few churches, it's just right to burn them.

If I didn't need you to lead the way, I would have beaten you up and driven you away.
