425 Li Weiqiu and Zhang Lie's Refuge
Ninety-three days of great turmoil.
Outside the Chen Mansion, Dai Xishan had just gotten up from the bed. When he learned that Chen Mo wanted to see him, he did not dare to delay for a moment and hurried towards the Chen Mansion.
"Deputy General Dai Xishan of the Fire Qilin Army is here to see your lord, please inform me." Dai Xishan respectfully faced the guard.
The guard smiled and said: "General Dai, you're welcome. I told you that if General Dai comes, there is no need to notify him, just let him in."
"General Dai, please come in." The maid who had been waiting for him for a long time came over and showed Dai Xishan the way.
The Chen Mansion was large and deep, and the two of them walked for an unknown amount of time. They passed through the courtyard and passed a long corridor to the left, then walked along the path, and then around the rockery. The maid took Dai Xishan to the study.
"General Dai will wait in the study for a moment, and I will go and inform the master." The maid said with a clever smile.
"Young lady, please lead the way." Dai Xishan also comes from a famous family. Although he is not as good as the seven famous families, he is still quite polite when answering the right questions.
Dai Xishan only waited in the study for a moment before Chen Mo walked in.
"The last general, Dai Xishan, has met your lord."
Chen Mo breathed a long sigh of relief, exhaled the turbid air in his chest, walked closer and said with a smile: "Brother Xishan, you don't have to be so formal. Just be a brother to me."
Dai Xishan nodded and said, "What do you have to say to the general, sir?"
"There is indeed something." Chen Mo invited Dai Xishan to sit down with him, and then used his heavenly and human senses to investigate. After finding that no one was eavesdropping, he said: "I want you to hold my military talisman and lead a battalion to the sea in secret.
Qinghu..."
Dai Xishan listened carefully.
Chen Mo asked Dai Xishan to escort the gunpowder workshop in Haiqing Lake to Nanyang County. In a few days, he would go to Nanyang to take up his post. This gunpowder workshop was his biggest weapon, so he had to transfer it.
of.
This is to avoid any unexpected situation happening when you take office and putting yourself in the way.
After listening to Chen Mo's words, Dai Xishan was shocked. Such a powerful cupping bomb was actually manufactured in batches. At the same time, he also understood the importance of this gunpowder workshop.
Now that he has left it to himself to transfer, isn't this a sideways expression of his trust in himself?
Dai Xishan nodded solemnly: "The final general will definitely live up to your expectations."
"Yeah." Chen Mo patted Dai Xishan's shoulder, and then said with a smile: "You're here so early, you probably haven't had breakfast yet. Come on, come and have something with me."
Chen Mo took Dai Xishan to the living room and asked Chunlan to notify the kitchen to get some wine and dishes.
While Chen Mo and Dai Xishan were chatting in the wine room.
Hongfu Restaurant in the west of the city.
"Waiter, please add a portion of braised pork and mapo tofu in Tianzi No. 2 private room."
"Okay, wait a moment, sir." The waiter shouted to the kitchen: "Braised pork in private room No. 2 of the Emperor, and a portion of Mapo tofu."
Tianzi No. 2 Private Room.
Li Weiqiu invited the top ten martial arts students who had not yet been recruited to gather here.
In less than half an hour, everyone had arrived.
Since it is a treat, a beautiful waitress is naturally indispensable.
Li Weiqiu didn't show any pretense, he sat lazily aside with his arms around the slender waist of a maid, and after taking a sip of wine, he said: "Everyone, have you heard that the Wild Kingdom has invaded, and the eldest princess has been lost in Hulao Pass?
came back."
"I heard that, I really didn't expect that even the Tianlong Army was defeated. The Desolate Country is coming with such ferocity." Everyone present was from a high background, so naturally they had their own sources of information. Moreover, the matter of the Hulao Pass being broken was not
What a secret.
"This is not considered a defeat for the Tianlong Army. The eldest princess led the Tianlong Army to resist the army of the Desolate Kingdom for nearly two months. No reinforcements came. In the end, they were defeated by the army led by the general Ling Zhi of the Desolate Country. As long as there is someone to help
As soon as the eldest princess is here, the outcome is uncertain."
"What's the use of talking about it now? Hulao Pass has been lost. Once Hulao Pass is lost, the army of the Huang country will be able to march straight in. If no one resists, they will probably attack the capital before the year."
"Who do you think the court will send?"
"Who else is it? Chen Mobei. Even King Yan's two million troops are no match for him. He has also earned the title of God of War. Now that foreign tribes are invading, who else can he give up?"
"..."
Several people spoke to each other.
Suddenly, Li Weiqiu put down the wine glass in his hand and said, "Everyone, would you like to join the army and serve the country together?"
As soon as this statement came out, everyone was stunned.
It’s not that there’s anything wrong with these words, it’s that these words came from Li Weiqiu’s mouth.
Isn't he used to being lazy and doesn't like to be restrained? Why is he thinking about joining the army?
Being watched by everyone, Li Weiqiu also blushed, and then said: "Everyone is responsible for the rise and fall of the country. Now that the country is in crisis, how can we just stand by and watch..."
Li Weiqiu's words were very contagious. They were all people of the Song Dynasty. Who wanted to see their country being poisoned by foreigners? Several people felt sympathy.
Zhang Lie said: "Now is also a good time for our generation to make contributions. As a man, it is time to go into battle and kill the enemy."
Zhang Lie still can't forget the scene where Dai Xishan and Bai Yongtao were watched by everyone when Chen Mo returned home in triumph.
The battle in Qinyang County can only be regarded as civil strife.
Civil unrest attracts much attention.
If you defeat foreigners, will you not be respected by all people?
When I die, I'm afraid the tablets will have to be placed much further forward.
"Then who should we turn to?" someone said.
"Of course it's Duke Anyang." Xiao Yunqi is now the most powerful, and the entire court is under his control. If you want to make contributions, of course you have to rely on him.
"It makes sense." Someone agreed.
Seeing that Li Weiqiu hadn't finished speaking, Zhang Lie looked at him and said, "Brother Weiqiu, what do you think?"
"I plan to join our God of War." Li Weiqiu said.
"Chen Mo?" Someone was stunned: "Why, no matter how strong Chen Mo is, he is still a subordinate of Duke Anyang. Wouldn't it be better to join Duke Anyang?"
"You don't understand this." Li Weiqiu lowered his voice, and everyone stretched their necks to see Li Weiqiu say: "There are many talents under the command of Duke Anyang, and you and I may not be reused if we join them.
But Chen Mo is different. Not long after he was named Nanyang Mu, he was about to take office. It was a time when he was short of manpower. And according to my understanding, the only innate warriors Chen Mo could use were Dai Xishan and
Bai Yongtao and the other two, but our strength is not inferior to them..." Li Weiqiu said slowly.
Zhang Lie was moved and said: "But last time he came to win over us, we refused. Now that he is seeking refuge with us, will he still accept it?"
The answer is: yes.
On the morning of the ninety-fourth day of the great turmoil, after Li Weiqiu, Zhang Lie, and Wang Kai expressed their willingness to surrender to Chen Mo, Chen Mo expressed his welcome and drew a big cake for the three of them.
That night, Chen Mo even set up a table at Hongfu Restaurant, invited them to the banquet and also called Bai Yongtao.
