Chapter 1 The rumors are unbelievable

===============================

Residents in the area of ​​Wuyuan Road in the French Concession all know that Commander Lu Mincheng is a very kind person.

Commander Lu is not very old, and he will stand at full age during the year, but he has the title of "commander", which always makes people look at it.

His father was the former Northwest warlord Lu Sizhong, known as "Yan Wanglu", and his reputation was not good, but it was enough to reflect the awe of others.

Lu Sizhong is tall and healthy. Except for dealing with battlefield injuries, he has never been in a hospital or lay in a hospital bed in his life. For this reason, he is very stingy to give some of the care that should be given to the younger generation at a certain age. Furthermore, concubines are not allowed to intervene in discipline, for fear of raising "fat powder".

Therefore, Lu Mincheng was beaten up in the military camp.

Before he could speak, he began to touch the gun. The Browning M1900, which accompanied Lu Sizhong to collect all the six northwestern provinces and countless souls under the gun, was a gift he gave to his eldest son.

The first shot was fired at the age of six. At that time, the old commander Lu had just killed his old enemy and came down from the battlefield. He was very happy. When he saw his son running wildly in the garden with a gun, the leopard stared and drew his gun and said, "Stop!"

Before he could finish his words, Lu Mincheng rolled down low to the ground and flashed behind the bushes. Even though he showed his buttocks without regard for his bum, there was nothing wrong with that series of body movements.

With a head of leaves, Young Master Lu turned around and drew a gun to fight back!

boom.

The maids crawled and covered their ears and screamed, and the eight-shot of the personal guard was instantly loaded, and with just one order, Young Master Lu could be beaten into a sieve.

——Not to mention that there is the word "Yan Wang" in front of the surname "Lu", except for the young master Lu who didn't react for a while, the only person present was his biological father, who had just experienced a life-threatening situation.

The smile on Old Commander Lu's face still hasn't faded away. If Young Master Lu was young and his hands were not on his head, or if he had really been blessed by the King of Hell, he would have been able to smile at Jiuquan on that day.

Afterwards, Old Commander Lu touched Young Master Lu's head and said, "Yes, he didn't pee his pants, he looked like Lao Tzu's seed.

After receiving the praise, Master Lu immediately became angry again. He turned around and wanted to run, but was snatched by his father and put the gun in his hand. Then Commander Lu took out the bullets from his gun in front of everyone. Then the gun was given to him.

After that, Lu Mincheng never saw the Browning M1900 again, and an adjutant who used to play with him often disappeared along with him.

Commander Lu has always believed that he can live to 80, which is for a reason.

At the end of the year that Young Master Lu first shot, the newly introduced fifth concubine was pregnant and gave birth to a son in the early autumn of the second year.

Originally, according to Old Commander Lu's idea, the second son should be raised as extensively as the eldest son, but unfortunately his idea went bankrupt when the child fell to the ground.

Lu Mincheng was raised well, but he deserved his life. He was born with no illness or disaster. When he was born, a wet nurse could not get enough to feed, so she stopped crying after receiving milk from an extra sheep.

In contrast, Second Young Master Lu was not so lucky. After he suffered from eczema, fever and bronchitis in the first two months, even Old Commander Lu, who never believed in ghosts and gods, could not help but wonder if his life was really too hard. , G son?

So he invited the most famous local fortune-teller to divination. The fortune-teller looked at the dying master Lu Er and stroked his beard, saying that this son has a long life, but he will be helped by nobles in the future, so there is no need to worry about it.

It is amazing to say that after the fortune-teller left, the second young master Lu really had a better day. He could eat milk and porridge. Although he was still a regular visitor to the hospital, he gradually began to show some signs of the young master being lively and active when he was a child.

For this reason, the old commander Lu remembered the hexagram that the fortune teller made for him when he was about to leave: the ancients are rare and nine die.

His heart was ruthless, I, Lu Sizhong, even had to kowtow when I saw the King of Hell, can I accept this life?

Then selfishly pushed that year forward by one: Eighty, eighty is the age when Lao Tzu entered the earth!

However, man's calculation is not as good as heaven's calculation. Before the second young master Lu met the "noble man" in the fortune-teller's mouth, the old commander Lu met the King of Hell first.

That was in the seventeenth year of the Republic of China, when Lu Mincheng was lying

He was studying at the Chi Military Academy, and suddenly received a telegram saying that his father was gone, and his 140,000 people were headless.

At the time when Marshal Zhang passed away and the young marshal was overwhelmed, the forces in the northern region were reshuffled.

The Lu family army, who had lost its head coach, was losing ground on the front line. After a few high-level generals scratched their ears all night, they suddenly remembered the young master Lu, who was thousands of miles away, and immediately sent a telegram to ask him to come back and preside over the overall situation.

Master Lu, oh no, he is now Commander Lu. After arriving at the barracks, he did not put on his clothes immediately. Instead, he first looked at Lu Sizhong's body and the appendix that had indeed been eroded and perforated by caesarean section. On the "royal seat" of the old commander Lu, he wiped his father's relics carefully.

The commander of the third division, Xu Zhengyuan, was the confidant of the old commander. He has been with the old commander since he joined the army. In addition to leading the troops to fight, he also served as the chief of staff to a certain extent. Report the military situation to Lu Mincheng on behalf of everyone.

After speaking, the room was silent.

"You said just now, who was ordered to be recovered?" This was Commander Lu's first sentence that night.

"One division and four divisions."

Commander Lu's eyes wandered over the barrel of the gun, and his dark eyes made people unable to understand emotions: "...Which is the first division commander?"

The first division commander had a layer of sweat on his forehead, but he was not very worried. In his opinion, Young Master Lu was just pretending to be calm at the moment - the enemy army was on the line, and the body of his father was still placed next door, even if he was a general manager. But a newborn calf, can a tiger outshine the old commander?

Thinking like this, he opened his mouth and replied, "My subordinates are here."

Commander Lu asked, "Who gave the order for a full frontal attack?"

The first division commander stood up straight: "Old commander."

"Oh—" Commander Lu nodded to show his understanding, but he didn't say anything.

After ten seconds of silence, the first division commander saw that it seemed that he should speak, and then explained: "The enemy forces on the east front are attacking from three directions in batches. I based on the situation on the spot..."

boom.

Except for Xu Zhengyuan, no one could see clearly how Lu Mincheng shot.

Even in Xu Zhengyuan's eyes, he could only see that Commander Lu was still wiping his gun one second, and the next second he pulled the trigger - he didn't even turn his head - a layer of warmth was smeared on the right side of his face. Hot viscous brains.

"One division is incorporated into three divisions, and Master Xu leads the breakout from the northern foot of Qingyun Peak, the eighth division supports the eastern front, and the fourth division..." He paced up to the fourth division commander, who was stretched like a flagpole, his voice low. Not low, "According to the old commander's order, attack with full force from the front."

"Yes!" The uniform voice was loud and clear like a recruit who had just joined the army.

In fact, compared with the large and small battles that Commander Lu fought later, although this battle in the 17th year of the Republic of China was fierce, it was not enough to be used as a story to tell.

However, in addition to the colorful anecdotes, folklore and famous deeds always like to dig some "firsts", "firsts" and "beginnings".

When Commander Lu stepped down from the battlefield, it was already the autumn of the twenty-fourth year of the Republic of China.

He owns an apartment in the French Concession in Shanghai, which he has never lived in for a day before. He bought it because Lu Ruozuo wanted to study at Fudan University.

When they first moved in, the neighbors heard that the person coming was Commander Lu, and they were all a little curious in fear.

However, after getting along for a period of time, found that this Lu Yu was still the same as usual, neither the soldier who killed without blinking, nor the living King of Hell who was rumored to be vicious, only one more person dressed in a long gown and holding a teapot in his hand, who often hummed under the rose hedge. People in Qu, if they got close to listening, they could find that today is the Hall of Longevity, and tomorrow it will be replaced by the Peony Pavilion.

If you say that you don't wear military uniforms and don't lead soldiers, you just leave an impression of being "different from the pomp of ordinary warlords", then really make people see Commander Lu as a "person who is very easy to get along with". Talking about the dog.

Lu Mincheng loves dogs. The old commander once had a German black back, and he has been hanging out with this dog since he can remember.

What Lu Mincheng has never mentioned to anyone is that in the first year or two of Lu Ruozuo's birth, he felt more affectionate towards his younger brother than he did towards a dogthat little thing like a crying monkey should be a beast. Sacrifice, tall, handsome, smart, and quick-witted black-backed brothers.

Therefore, after moving into Lu Yu, he wanted to raise a dog that was as majestic as his own brother.

However, on a rainy day, Lu Ruozuo walked into the house with a dirty and wet dog, saying that it was picked up from the roadside drain, and asked him if he could keep it at home.

Lu Mincheng stared at the hairball that could no longer be seen, and after a while he said, "Where are its legs?"

These three words are doomed that this dog will be disliked by Commander Lu from the very beginning, and this dislike even the neighbor's French envoy's wife once praised "My God, Mr. Lu, your little corgi is so cute." Nor did it disappear.

However, the disgust turned into disgust. After shouting for a month to throw the dog out or be killed, Commander Lu failed to escape the fate of his own words, and worked hard to start the daily dog ​​walking activity.

"Bonjour M. Lu!" The ambassador's wife greeted him with a smile.

"Bonjour Madame Duval!" He gave a personable smile.

"Your dog grows so fast, the little guy is much meatier than a month ago!"

"It now eats half a calf bone every day." He looked at the tall and elegant Great Dane next to the envoy's wife with envy in his eyes, "Xiaosha has grown beautiful again, look at this coat, this figure, these legs... …”

The envoy's wife asked, "Why haven't you seen Mr. Lu these two days?"

Lu Mincheng said, "It is said that the school is doing some activities, and the young people can go with him. I don't have to worry about it."

The envoy's wife nodded: "That's good. To be honest, the ride at the racetrack the day before yesterday really scared me."

Lu Mincheng didn't know why: "The racetrack?"

The envoy's wife was surprised: "Don't you know?"

Seeing that Lu Mincheng was still puzzled, the envoy's wife gave a detailed account of the situation that day.

"...The man just kept rushing out of the fence, the horse ran into the auditorium, he turned over and dismounted and knocked Mr. Lu to the ground, oh, you probably won't be happy when you hear this, but I still have to say it In a word, that beautiful figure is like Hogel who is reining in his horse on the top of the Pyrenees."

That night, Second Young Master Lu was called home by a phone call.

"Brother, do you have something to do with me?" Lu Ruozuo lowered his head, his eyes erratic.

Lu Mincheng's eyes were pinned to him and rolled over him inch by inch. His face was not hurt much, except for a thin cut on his right brow bone; he walked normally, his legs were fine; .

"It's okay, I haven't seen you for a few days, I've been thinking about it."

Lu Ruozuo raised his head and smiled, a little flattered.

Lu Mincheng saw that he didn't mean to mention that, and he didn't force himself to ask.

Langsule stepped on the jacquard carpet like a cat and leaned close to Commander Lu's ear.

"It's clear, it's the ninth master of the Fu family."

"Which Fu family?" Commander Lu was picking out a record. The Yumingtang Four Dreams built by Liyuan was a swan song that no one with money could find.

"Fu Jun guards Fu's second-eldest home."

As soon as the record needle was put on, it happened to be the sentence at the end of the sentence: don't know where it came from, and it goes deep. The living can die, the dead can live, and the feelings in dreams are not real.

He held his hand and suddenly remembered who that person was.
