(Five thousand words chapter is presented! Thank you to Hanhai Dust Sand ZDC, Sky No. 9, Bv6579, Lin Biao for your support, thank you everyone!)

During the continuous plum rain season, it is rare that the rain stops and when the head slowly rises, the vegetation fog slowly rises under the sunlight and gradually dissipates... The ground is full of potholes and turbid rain. On the plain Jiangdong Plain is on the ground, with woven water nets everywhere, and beside the river is full of tender green rice seedlings. From time to time, you can see farmers walking through the ridges with hoes, looking at the tender rice seedlings full of hope.

It is still cold and cold in such seasons, and it is still a bit cold at night and in the morning. But after walking on the muddy official road for a long time, my whole body has started to get hot, the white air on my head rises, and my body has become covered with sticky sweat.

Qian Liu rode on a majestic white horse, but at this time the pure white horse was covered with stark mud, no longer a god-like horse. He stopped on a dirt slope on the side of the road, and looked at his team back and forth. Walking in front and behind the team were his five hundred cavalrymen, and in the middle were more than 500 soldiers in red battle robes, many of whom were still stained with wounds and their robes were stained with dry blood.

However, although most of these people were injured, they were very strong. Even if they fell into their hands at this time, life and death were uncertain, no one was panicked. This made Qian Liu very impressed. Just imagine that the soldiers of Shijingdu trained by him were definitely not as good as these people. But these elite soldiers in his eyes were actually just rural soldiers in the Qin army. To put it bluntly, the rural soldiers of the Qin army and the Tumen in Hangzhou were nominally a soldier of the surname, but it was obvious that the rural soldiers of the Qin army were much more elite than the Hangzhou Tumen in Hangzhou.

The team rode behind and a strong bald man nearly eight feet tall rushed to Qian Liu: "General Jumei, the road ahead is flooded by heavy rain and water, and the road is blocked, so you have to take a detour."

This bald man was Qian Liu's personal guard general. He was accompanied by a hundred fangs of light cavalry and was trusted by Qian Liu the most. He was originally a monk. He had been in trouble for a few years and the monks in the temple were not easy to survive. He couldn't afford to raise this big-bellied man, so he let him go down the mountain. Gu Quanwu later met Qian Liu, followed Qian Liu to sell salt together, and then invested in Dong Chang together, and now lives in Qian Liu's personal guard general.

In history, Gu Quanwu later became one of Qian Liu's five tiger generals, the largest general of Wu Yue Kingdom, and only defeated once in his life. In the late Tang and Five Dynasties, Gu Quanwu in western Zhejiang and Li Hanzhi in Heyang were the two most famous monk generals. However, among the more famous monk generals, Gu Quanwu is not yet ranked. The most famous monk general is Xuancheng under Li Jing, and Xuancheng from Shaolin Temple. Now he is in the position of the general of the army, Dongjun Duke, Situ of the Procuratorate, and the commander of the Feixiong Army. He is even more famous than the Moyun monk Li Hanzhi, and Gu Quanwu can only rank third at most.

"Stop for the time being and cook in advance. Monk Gu, please take someone to explore the lower road." Qian Liu said after thinking.

The team stopped quickly and chose a small hillside nearby to make a temporary camp. Qian Lie's troops buried pots and made rice. Some picked firewood, some drank horses and brushed horses, while the rest surrounded the Qin army with guns.

Under the protection of Shi Jingbing, more than 500 Qin soldiers including Wu Qian squatted on the ground. The weapons on their bodies had long been taken away. At this time, hundreds of people who survived from death were unarmed and basically everyone was injured.

Although Zhou Bao and the King of Qin were allies, in fact, everyone knew that the towns were still vassal states of the Tang Dynasty on the surface, but in fact, they knew that the Qin army and the Huai army were certainly enemies, but the Western Zhejiang Army, which were also enemies of the Huai army, may not be their own people with the Qin army.

Lin Song's face was a little yellow, he had a low fever on his body, and a thick gauze wrapped around his abdomen. He looked around weakly, "Brother Wu and Brother Deng, I have both brothers implicated my two brothers. If I hadn't saved me, both brothers have returned to Shandong now."

Wu Qian's situation is not much better now. Although they said that they had the intention of burning both jade and stones, Liang Zhang temporarily slowed down and finally escaped the disaster of destruction. However, they had just left the tiger's den, entered the wolf's den, and fell into the hands of the western Zhejiang soldiers again in a blink of an eye.

Holding his swollen arm, Wu Qian smiled bitterly, "It's time, it's too obvious to talk about those things, one lifetime, two brothers, what are we doing? Now that it's in the hands of the Western Zhejiang soldiers, I don't know what the future will be."

The soldiers in the western Zhejiang Province surrendered their weapons, but did not attack them. Instead, they found someone to treat them and gave them food, but they did not mention how to deal with them.

Deng Huan, the inventor of the Flying Thunder Cannon and the leader of the 18th Army, said softly: "We have crossed the Yangtze River now. We should be in Jiangyin, Changzhou. It seems that they are going to send them to Runzhou."

Lin Song's eyes lit up, "Maybe things are not that bad, or it is possible that Zhou Bao will send us back to Shandong by then."

Wu Qian shook his head, looking at the escort's careful secret, he had already guessed in his heart that this trip would not have a good result. If he didn't do it well, Zhou Bao might be coveting the various firearms they used in the battle with Liang Zhang. Even if there were no flying thunder cannons, the Qin army's divine fire, flying fire, various warships and naval tactics, they were all very important. Zhou Bao got it casually, which could be of great help to the Western Zhejiang Army in Jiangnan.

He even suddenly thought, if it really develops like this, how would he choose? Would he rather die than surrender or take the opportunity to surrender? Back then, he was not a subordinate of Li Jing but a general of the Heishan Fort in the Great Xie Fort of the Feng family, and finally surrendered to Li Jing. This thought scared Wu Qian himself. He is now a veteran of the navy in the Qin army, with a very high status, so why did he think of surrendering?

In the other tent, except for Gu Quanwu, several important officers who were escorting the mission with Qian Liu this time were sitting in the tent.

Qian Liu is the New City general Du Sui, one of the eight generals, and Ruan Jie, deputy general of Qingping City. There are also two other Ma Chuo and Chengji, who are both Shi Jingdu.

Although these four people have different identities, whether they are Du Feng, the deputy general, Ruan Jie, or the colleagues, Ma Chuo and Cheng Ji, they are actually very close to Qian Li, beyond the ordinary relationship. In fact, a small interest circle dominated by Qian Li has been formed in the Eight Dudus. Together with Monk Gu, these four people later became Qian Li's most loyal five capable generals, and they were called the Five Tiger Generals in total.

Qian Liu tried a lot to win over these people, and even promised his sister to Ma Chuo.

Chengji, who was in his early thirties, came from a scholarly family. His grandfather Cheng Ke was named the chief minister of the Prince Jia of the Tang Dynasty, and his father Chengzhen was a doctor of the Tang Dynasty. Chengjisheng's surname was gentle and steady, skillful and resourceful. He has always been Qian Liu's military advisor in this small group.

At this time, Chengji pinched the goatee's beard and narrowed his eyes slightly, adopted him slightly wrinkled, and said with some concern: "The general is going to release these Qin troops?"

The other three were also surprised. These Qin soldiers were asked by Zhou Bao to escort them to Runzhou. They let the people go. How can they explain this?

Qian Liu reached out and swept over the short beards of a cheek full of cheeks, and chuckled: "Brother Hongji said it was not right to let go. At present, the King of Qin and the Prince of Bohai and the three families of the Prince of Runan were fighting between the king of Qin. We are just a group of mortals. We have to think about some things. This time, Zhou Shuai directly asked someone to escort these Qin troops to Runzhou. As far as he knew, it had caused a lot of rumors in the army. Before leaving, the general of Dongzhen did not come out to see him off."

Dong Chang was right to know Qian Liu. However, Dong Chang was capable, but he was not very good at scrutiny and a little short-sighted. This time, Zhou Bao transferred Qian Liu to escort 500 Qin soldiers to Runzhou, and secretly sent people to spread it, saying that the defeat of Liang Zhang was all due to Qian Liu. Therefore, Zhou Shuai wanted to use Qian Liu this time. These words came to Dong Chang's ears, which made Dong Chang very dissatisfied.

"Brothers, we can't guess who can laugh for the last time, but judging from the current situation, who do you think is the most likely to take it on behalf of the Tang Dynasty?" Qian Liu asked.

Li Tang has reached today, and anyone with vision in the world can see that the Tang Dynasty has come to an end.

Cheng Ji was stunned for a moment, and then solemnly said: "Today, among the heroes, Li Jing is the strongest, with a large land, a large army, and a sufficient food. He can be called a hero. Controlling the northeast can be used as a land in Phnom Penh, advancing, attacking, retreating, and defending, and being invincible. He operates Shandong, and has the benefits of industrial, commercial and trade, fishing, salt and mining. Especially when Li Jing is young, he can act in various ways, such as the reform of the military system, official system, and employment economy, which is really shocking, but it makes the Qin army more stable. A certain prediction, if nothing unexpected happens, twenty years later, although the world is still surnamed Li, the one who sits in the world will not be Li Longxi, but it is very likely Li Zhaojun."

Today, the Zi family came from the Li family in Longxi, while Li Jing was a descendant of the Li family in Zhaojun. Cheng Ji's words already believed that Li Jing could finally replace him.

Although Qian Liu did not think that those who are in a big position will definitely be able to laugh to the end, there is undoubtedly a small person like him who can never afford to offend Li Jing. Moreover, when the chaos is in today, it is when heroes arose in troubled times, Qian Liu is not a person who is willing to be ordinary. The small deputy general of Shijing Town cannot satisfy him.

If he could use Zhou Bao's power to improve his status, he would naturally be happy, but if he could still borrow Li Jing's power, he would undoubtedly have more bargaining chips in this troubled world.

Wu Qian, Lin Song and Deng Huan were secretly invited to the account. When the three of them heard Qian Liu telling them to let them go, they were a little unbelievable.

"Tonight, someone will pretend to be someone robbing the camp and then arrange for someone to send you away."

"Why?" Wu Qian asked in confusion. There is no hatred for no reason, nor love for no reason. Could it be that this Deputy General Qian is actually a senior spy from the Supervision Bureau in Jiangnan? But when he scanned the other generals in the account, he immediately denied his guess.

Qian Liu chuckled and said, "Although Qian Liu had worked as a scoundrel and a salt vendor, I heard that the current hero Qin King was the same year as him. I was extremely amazed by him. I have always respected the great achievements of His Highness Qin King, and I wish I could not follow him and be a front pawn."

Qian Liu said that he was the same year as Li Jing, but it was correct. In fact, not only Qian Liu and Li Jing were born in the same year, but among the heroes of the late Tang Dynasty who were born in the same year as them, in addition to the King of Wu Yue Qian Liu, there were actually King of Wu Yang Xingmi, King of Chu Ma Yin, and Emperor Taizu of Later Liang Zhu Wen.

In the sixth year of Xuan Dazhong in Emperor Tang Dynasty and 852, it was a very magical year. Among the rebel kings who ruined the Tang Dynasty, four were born in this year. Of course, Li Jing must be included now.

At this time, Li Jing, the five peers of the age, was already the King of Qin in the Tang Dynasty and the Marshal of the World.

Zhu Wen had become a founding hero of the Great Qi country, Duke Zhu and the governor of Xuanwu.

Yang Xingmi was an ordinary wealthy businessman in Huaixi and was secretly recruiting soldiers.

Qian Liu has already had a preliminary foundation and team, and is already a military envoy from Shijing City, Hangzhou, western Zhejiang.

It is said that only Ma Yin, who has just given up the good job of carpenter and devoted himself to the army of Qin Zongquan, the Duke of Qin State, the Duke of Fengzhou of the Great Qi Dynasty, to serve as a soldier to eat food.

Qian Liu's words made Wu Qian half-believing and half-doubted. It was indeed true that Li Jing was the role model idol of countless young people today. However, he was still a little cautious, "Since that's the case, General Qian might as well return to Shandong with us. I promised that if the King of Qin saw General Qian, he would be very happy. I was willing to join General Qian with Lin and Deng to report to General Qian, and at least he could take the position of military commander, which would be more beautiful than staying here."

Hearing this, although Qian Liu had a smile on his face and had a deliberate expression, in fact, he did not intend to join Li Jing. He was in danger and planned to let Wu Qian and others go, but he just bets from multiple sources, get insurance for himself and leave a way out. What he really thought was to build his own world in western Zhejiang while taking advantage of the troubled times. What he wanted to do was to be on par with Li Jing one day, or even surpass Li Jing, rather than being a subordinate of Li Jing.

A large part of the reason he chose to get along with Li Jing at this time was because Li Jing was far away in the north and saw that Li Jing was unable to go south for a while. He wanted to secretly make friends with Li Jing, obtain Li Jing's secret support, and then strengthen his own power.

"I have a letter written by myself here, and I hope the three generals can help me present it to the King of Qin."

"General Qian won't leave together?"

"I have many brothers here, as well as parents, wives and children, etc. What's more, after I send you away, I have to be responsible for the aftermath, and I can't live without it. When the opportunity is ripe, I will go to the north and work in front of the King of Qin." Qian Liu said nicely and said with a smile.

That night, Qian Li's temporary camp was in chaos and some people robbed the camp. However, the generals and officers in the camp received Qian Li's orders privately, and shouted as earth-shaking, but in fact they let the other party rob the five hundred Qin troops in the camp.

After the camp calmed down again, Qian Liu and his future five tiger generals smiled and drank tea in the tent.

Cheng Ji smiled and said, "After this incident, the general sent another secret envoy to meet Li Jing, saying that he would respond to Li Jing's eyes and ears in western Zhejiang, and asked Li Jing to support some weapons, money, etc. I think Li Jing would not refuse."

Qian Liu nodded with a smile, feeling a little proud. Whether it is Dong Chang, Zhou Bao, or Li Jing, he is more than a phoenix tail. Now he just wants to make money from nothing, and to strengthen himself between the three parties.

While talking and laughing, I suddenly heard another shout of killing outside.

"Brother Jumei, something big is not good." Du Ling went out for a moment and ran back immediately.

"What happened? Brother Tengyun, why did your man come back again just now?" Qian Liu was also confused. The person who pretended to be the robber of the camp tonight was Du Ling's person, while the person who was guarding the camp was Qian Liu's person. Du Ling had already robbed the person just now, why did he kill him back now?

Du Ling said with a dark face: "The first time I came is not my person, but now I am the one I have arranged in advance."

Qian Liu didn't understand it for a while, and it took him a while to understand what was going on. He couldn't help but be shocked, "What happened to the person who was pulling him out before?"

At this time, Gu Quanwu also walked back from outside, "General, I asked, the people who had no banner before were all black-clothed and black armor, but the weapons were excellent, everyone had armor, and they were even equipped with bows and crossbows. Damn, we let someone set up a piece of it."

"I'll take people to chase you now!" Ma Chuo and Ruan Jie shouted immediately.

"Slow!" Qian Liu waved his hand to stop the two of them, turned to ask Gu Quanwu, "Monster, have you asked clearly, isn't the Huai Army here?"

"It's not the Huai Army." Gu Quanwu said seriously.

"Will that be Zhenhaijun?"

"Those people are very well-equipped, even far beyond the Zhenhai Army and the Huai Army."

Cheng Ji interrupted: "The Huai Army has a newly built elite named Moye Army, and the Zhenhai Army also has a newly built elite named Houlou Army. Maybe it is one of them?"

Gu Quanwu shook his head and determined that it was not these two armies. "I think it was the Qin army, and their equipment was almost exactly the same as the Qin army equipment we confiscated on Hu Douzhou."

When they heard that the Qin army was approaching and robbing the five hundred people quietly, Qian Liu and others looked at each other. Fortunately, they had arranged a robbery camp tonight, so the defenders did not resist the counterattack of those people, so they did not cause any casualties. But thinking about it, everyone still felt a cool breeze in their vests. If the other party intentionally attacked them, they would probably have fun tonight.

"I heard that there was a special battle camp among the Qin army, each of which could fly over the eaves and walls, which was extremely magical. Maybe they were the ones who came tonight." Du Ling said.

Qian Liu waved his hand and pretended to be calm: "No matter whether he is a special operations camp or a personal military camp, we would have to send people away. Since they came to pick them up in person, it saved us a lot of trouble." Although he said that, this incident tonight still made Qian Liu feel a little difficult to calm down.

This Qin army is even more powerful than I imagined!

Twenty miles north of Qianli Camp, the troops who were moving rapidly in the dark night stopped slowly.

In fact, not long after Wu Qian, Lin Song and Deng Huan left the camp, they found that the matter was different from what they had discussed before. They looked secretly along the way and found that the soldiers who robbed the camp were indeed not Du Ling's soldiers. At this time, the three of them did not understand who Cheng Yaojin was who came out from the middle of the way.

Until now, he stopped and dozens of riders on the opposite side went to the front of him, and immediately jumped off a group of people. He was the first young handsome man, walked up to everyone, bowed his fists, and shouted to himself.

"In the morning of Luzhou, Yang Xingmi led the thirty-six brothers in Luzhou to rescue all the Qin army brothers. I hope the sea letter!"
