Chapter 65 Banquet Invitation
Although he is practicing, with Lu Chen's current strength, it is impossible to improve his strength in a short period of time without the assistance of advanced items. Therefore, Lu Chen who entered the tent could only maintain his own state.
Soon, it was dark and night had arrived. The quiet outside Lu Chen's tent was suddenly broken and Lin Lei walked in.
"What's the matter? The military command has been fulfilled?"
The moment the person came in, Lu Chen opened his eyes.
"Not yet, sir, there is something else coming here this time. Someone invited us to the banquet and prepared to form an alliance with us."
"Assembly, are you familiar with?" The number of alliances on the battlefield is indeed greater, which can increase some strength, but if the alliance holds bad ideas, it will not only not increase strength, but will also cause some losses to oneself.
Lin Lei was very calm about Lu Chen’s question: “Don’t worry, sir, I won’t let anyone deceive you. The people who have joined us this time are newcomers like us. They are not those veterans who have fought. Let sir go there just to support the scene.”
With a contractor around, Lin Lei can be more confident when he forms an alliance.
After hearing Lin Lei's words, Lu Chen also reacted. With Lin Lei's wit, it was not so easy to be cheated. He was a little suspicious. Since he was supporting the scene, he didn't do anything by himself. Of course, Lu Chen had no reason to object. In the tent, his strength could not continue to improve, and it would be good to go out to form an alliance with others.
...
In a luxurious tent, Lu Chen was wearing a black robe and watching Lin Lei and Qin Xuan chatting and laughing with others in the audience, feeling a little tired of it. Not only did Lin Lei come to this banquet, but Qin Xuan also came. The two of them were very clear about the communication between the rich children. Except for the introduction of Lu Chen at the beginning, Lu Chen didn't need anything to do. He just wanted to watch from the side.
The banquet lasted half an hour before Qin Xuan had time to leave the center of the banquet and came to Lu Chen.
"How about it, can we form an alliance?"
"It doesn't feel good to reads;."
"Why, it seems that you are having a good chat, they have other ideas?" Looking at the happy banquet, Lu Chen asked directly.
"They must have other thoughts, but this is not the most important thing. They also saw the battle between the army and the beasts today. This made them a little inflated, and they felt that the beasts were easy to deal with. They wanted us to form an alliance with them to take the initiative to take the task, go to the wilderness to sweep the beasts, and earn military merits as soon as possible."
What Qin Xuan said made Lu Chen speechless. They really regarded this as an amusement park.
However, after looking at the maid walking back and forth in the venue, Lu Chen felt that this was very likely to be true. They did come with a playful heart.
This made Lu Chen a little lucky. He chose to be with Lin Lei. Although Lin Lei had never seen the battlefield. But he was at least not a pussy. He knew what to do and what not to do. He had many women in the town, but he didn't bring any of them when he went to the battlefield. As for the maids who gave Lu Chen, it was to make Lu Chen happy, and it was not included in this list.
Moreover, the supplies he brought were all very strong and could be used several times.
The initiator of this banquet brought something very luxurious. But such things are useless on the battlefield. A large number of women also affect morale, especially when mercenaries fight outside. When these rich children play with women in luxurious tents, Lu Chen really doesn't know how much combat effectiveness the mercenaries can invest on the battlefield.
It’s better not to form an alliance, a pig teammate can ruin other people’s lives on the battlefield.
Because there was no intention of forming an alliance, Lin Lei and Qin Xuan left together halfway through the banquet.
When he arrived outside the tent, the initiator of the banquet also specifically persuaded: "Young Master Lei, you are sure you won't be with us tomorrow. You have seen the battle today. Those beasts do not have much wisdom at all. Their powerful is just their bodies. When we move forward on a large scale, they can't stop them. Maybe they will be scared away as soon as we go."
"Thank you for your kindness, but I'm a little timid, so I'd better move forward steadily. Here, I wish you all the best to win."
After saying that, Lin Lei and Lu Chen left the tent.
Seeing Lin Lei's figure gradually fading away, a rich young man next to the initiator of the banquet spat on the ground and sneered: "I have always heard that Mr. Lin is resourceful, but I didn't expect that he was a coward. Seeing that everyone around him is hiding his head and tail, it would be better if such a person is not invited."
"Forget it, let's continue to discuss the joint progress tomorrow."
Looking at the tent that was once again bustling behind him, Lu Chen was thinking: "Will an old man come to this banquet? Are there other rich children who have lived on the battlefield for a while?"
"No, what's wrong?" Lin Lei just thought about Lu Chen's question and answered it.
"No one?"
Lu Chen's questioning made Lin Lei pause, and he returned for a while: "Yes, there is not a single one, maybe he did not invite those old people."
Even though he said this, Lin Lei's face had become slightly solemn.
There are connections between the children of aristocratic families, many of which are related to relatives, and those rich children are not all pussy. It is impossible for them to have asked the children of aristocratic families who arrived early. There are many children of aristocratic families invited at this banquet. If there are very few elderly people, Lin Lei can be said to be normal, but if there is no one, it will be a bit abnormal. If something goes wrong, there will be a demon. The initiator of the banquet is likely to be bewitched by others and started the banquet reads;.
However, Lin Lei knew nothing about the purpose of the banquet and who initiated it.
When he walked to his tent, Lin Lei suddenly let out a sigh and laughed: "No matter who is planning, we did not participate this time, so we don't have to think about it so much. However, the people who can plan this plan, their family background and strength will definitely not be weak, so we'd better not ask about it."
Although he was talking to himself, Lu Chen knew that Lin Lei was telling him that he was afraid that he would do something impulsively.
Shaking his head, Lu Chen said, "It does have nothing to do with us, but from this, we can also see that the relationship between the elderly and the newcomers is not harmonious. It is good to ask others for the situation, but it is best to find someone who is trustworthy. If you are misled by those elderly people, we will be in trouble."
After reminding Lin Lei, Lu Chen walked back to his tent alone. With Lin Lei's talent, he just had to give some advice. He was better at handling this matter than himself.
Nothing happened overnight.
The next day, everyone else was busy, and Lu Chen was still resting in the tent.
However, at noon, Lu Chen was called out again.
When they found Lin Lei and Qin Xuan, there was a mercenary in their room.
"Who is this?"
"Sir, this is the commander of the Silver Fox regiment. The mercenary I just hired. We will fight together in the future."
After Lin Lei finished speaking, Qin Xuan explained to Lu Chen in a low voice: "The rich children who were loyal to the Silver Fox Corps, unfortunately died in a mission. Without the children of the aristocratic family, the Silver Fox team would have no supply. On the battlefield, they were no longer able to support them. After you said yesterday, Lin Lei and I felt that the children of the aristocratic family were a little unreliable and were afraid of being plotted. We found such mercenaries, and they were already planning to follow us. In the future, if we get enough merit and can make achievements, they will also become the guards of the territory, and their destiny is bound to us."
After Qin Xuan finished explaining, Lu Chen nodded and expressed his understanding. Unexpectedly, Lin Lei actually found such a mercenary. Although it was unexpected. Lu Chen was very satisfied, and his fate was tied together. There was no need to be afraid of betrayal. As veterans, they happened to have the experience Lu Chen and the others lacked, and finding them was indeed a wonderful step.
"Since the sir has arrived, please ask Yinhuge Pavilion to tell you what you think. The team strength we have brought has been told to you just now."
The most powerful people in the team are Lu Chen and Lin Lei. Although Lu Chen is not very responsible, in order to show respect for Lu Chen, Lin Lei will notify Lu Chen whenever something major happens and let Lu Chen watch. As for Qin Xuan, she is the representative of Lu Chen's interests, and she handles some of Lu Chen's trivial matters.
Not to mention Lu Chen, after Lin Lei spoke, the Silver Fox pondered and said, "Young Master, I have heard of the strength of the team. However, our team has not passed through the battlefield, and the combat effectiveness is really not stable. If we just rashly go to the beast area, our entire team will lose half of it within ten days and half a month."
This is almost all the veterans' opinions on the new mercenaries. As Silver Fox said, Lin Lei was not angry, but asked, "Then what do you think we should do?"
"The young master just came here and the army has not dispatched tasks yet. I suggest that sir, don't wait for the army to dispatch, but take the initiative to receive the tasks."
"Take the initiative, do you mean we should take the initiative? This is consistent with my friends' ideas." Silver Fox's words made Lin Lei narrow his eyes;.
"Take the initiative? The young master misunderstood. What I want you to take on a defensive mission?"
Silver Fox also noticed Lin Lei's tone. Although he didn't know why Lin Lei's expression changed, he still expressed his suggestions. At the same time, he had made up his mind that if Lin Lei insisted on going out and wanted to go to the wild immediately, he would take his teammates away. Such a blind person becomes a leader is not a good choice.
However, Silver Fox did not expect that his defensive words would ease Lin Lei's expression instead.
"Why take on the defensive mission? Also, haven't we always won? What needs to be defended?"
"We have indeed been advancing, but the army has mainly defeated the main force of the beasts and has not killed all the beasts. There are still many beasts behind us. Those beasts have been harassing the towns and supply lines established by the military. What I want you to take on is the task of defending the city under construction or protecting the supply lines. If you can't win, you can also clean up the beasts behind. You must not take on the task of locating forward, at least not now."
After looking at Lu Chen, Lin Lei could already feel that Silver Fox really wanted to join their team. He didn't have any other thoughts, but Lin Lei was still a little puzzled about Silver Fox's approach.
"Why do this? I remember that when I go to the front to investigate, I can get the most merits."
"I can indeed get the most merits when I go to the front, but the one with the most casualties is also the front. I know that the young master wants merits, but I still ask the young master to wait, at least train the troops before moving forward."
Silver Fox likes Lin Lei's personality very much. What's more important is that Lin Lei has enough resources to meet the needs of their team, so Silver Fox doesn't want to give up Lin Lei as the financial backer, so he is diligent in his explanation.
"The biggest problem with the young master's army now is that it has no experience in fighting group. It is easy to be confused when facing wild beasts. In war, chaos is coming. This is a manifestation of suicide. Although the enemy behind is not weak, it is cleaned up by the army after all. It is too powerful. We can use the beasts behind to train troops. When the troops are no longer panic when facing wild beasts, and at the same time, we can be orderly. Only then can we have the capital to move forward. We have many achievements and cannot make any money. The army is the foundation of the young master. As long as there is a strong army, why worry about the difficulty of military achievements."
I have to say that Silver Fox is good at speaking, and he also thinks very comprehensively. Lin Lei was moved by him. Although Lin Lei wanted to obtain military merit immediately and prove himself to the family, he was a smart person and would not be affected by these emotions. He wanted to accept Silver Fox's method.
Although he had an idea, Lin Lei did not agree immediately, but looked at Lu Chen and asked respectfully: "I don't know what sir means."
Lu Chen could naturally feel Lin Lei’s thoughts. After thinking about it, he did not deny the Silver Fox’s opinion. However, Lu Chen also expressed his own opinion: “It’s really good to train troops first, so we will go back. However, the defensive tasks and protective supplies are too passive, and the beasts may not attack for several months, so that our troops will not be trained, which is very unfavorable to us. If you take the task, take the cleaning task.”
Lu Chen said, but the Silver Fox had different opinions: "Master Poisonous Scorpion, the defense mission is not as easy as you think. Every day, wild beasts will attack the towns under construction. The army's supply line is also very long, and wild beasts attack everywhere. Although it is rarely available at one time, it takes several months and slowly training to train, and we can still train the team. The army on this planet has only developed one-eighth. It will take decades to completely clean the beasts on this planet. It will take us a long time..."
Silver Fox wanted to say something, but was interrupted by Lin Lei. He glanced at Lu Chen, and Lin Lei said, "Okay, Silver Fox, just do it according to Mr. Poison Scorpion. Tomorrow, I will apply for the task of cleaning up the beasts behind. No, I don't have to go tomorrow, I will go immediately." (To be continued.)
