Hearing what Pi Yuanfu said, Wang Qifeng said nothing more. In fact, Yang Chaodong confessed that Su Hao was imprisoned in Qixing Mountain and had no intention of letting him leave again, because the military hoard in Qixing Mountain was the largest in the Banzhou army.
The secret is that the 5,000 elite soldiers raised here are the trump card that the Yang family will use when they prepare to fall out with the Ming Dynasty. They have always been trained according to the strictest requirements.
The group of people were walking and chatting, and unknowingly they had arrived at the pass of Qixing Mountain. The Qixing Mountain military camp is located in the valley between the mountains, and the Qingfeng Taoist temple promised by Yang Chaodong to Su Hao is located halfway up the Qixing Mountain.
If you want to go to Qingfeng Taoist Temple, you can only pass through the valley, which gives Su Hao an opportunity to review Pi Yuanfu's 5,000 elite soldiers.
From the outside of the mountain, the place where the Qixing Mountain military camp is located is just an ordinary valley. Walking into the mountain pass, Su Hao discovered that there was a cave in it, and there was actually a huge military camp hidden there.
I saw bluestone walls on the hillsides on both sides. Every dozen or so steps, there was a soldier holding a spear guarding the place. Ordinary people would not even think about getting close. In the middle of the valley, there were barracks stacked on top of one another.
How many rooms? Flags and flags were fluttering in the camp, and from time to time the shouts of soldiers during training could be heard. From the mountain pass to the middle of the camp, there were four or five checkpoints. There were solid fortifications built in front of each checkpoint. The soldiers guarding the fortifications looked serious.
, serious in speech. When Su Hao walked past them, he could faintly feel the murderous aura emanating from these soldiers.
"How does Master Su look at my military appearance?" Pi Yuanfu asked Su Hao proudly.
"As expected, they are the masters of tigers and wolves." Su Hao replied. His words were somewhat complimentary, but also somewhat serious. To be honest, these soldiers he saw could indeed be regarded as the best soldiers in a hundred.
, compared with those guardsmen of the Ming Dynasty, they are simply the difference between a group of wolves and a group of sheep.
It turned out that when he was in the Chongqing Guard, Su Hao heard Ye Mengxiong and others talk about Yang Yinglong's self-respect in supporting troops. After entering Bozhou, he actually saw the army controlled by Yang's father and son, and felt that the combat effectiveness of these chieftain soldiers was higher than that of ordinary Ming soldiers.
Above the army. Only when he walked into the Qixing Mountain military store now did he realize that Yang Yinglong's true strength was much stronger than Ye Mengxiong and others had estimated. This secret military storehouse was simply a star for Ming Dynasty.
A powerful time bomb.
Hearing Su Hao's praise, Pi Yuanfu laughed heartily and said: "Master Su, I'm not bragging. If I pull out these 5,000 troops, I can easily defeat the Chongqing Guard."
"However, the Ming Dynasty has millions of troops. No matter how brave the soldiers under General Pi are, they are probably no match for four hands, right?" Su Hao asked hypocritically.
Wang Qifeng interjected at the side: "Master Su, although the Ming Dynasty has millions of troops, how many of them can fight? Besides, the Ming Dynasty is surrounded by powerful enemies, and I am afraid that even the emperor of the Ming Dynasty will not dare to count them.
Millions of troops have been transferred to Sichuan to fight against me in Bozhou, right? These 5,000 elite soldiers from Qixing Mountain are as good as the Ming Dynasty’s 100,000 troops. If the world changes in the future, with only these 5,000 soldiers and horses, my Chitose will dare to defeat Sichuan.
Guizhou is the only country that follows its lead."
"Well... haha, maybe." Su Hao smiled awkwardly, seeming a little tempted.
Wang Qifeng struck while the iron was hot and said: "Master Su, my queen thinks highly of you and wants to recruit Master Su for his own use. It would be better for Master Su to think about it. As the old saying goes, good birds choose trees to roost in, and virtuous birds choose trees to roost in."
I choose my master and serve, and there are not many masters with talents and strategies like my Qiantai and my empress today."
"Well, I'd better think about it." Su Hao responded. His tone was obviously not as firm as when he was in the mining area. This gave Wang Qifeng some hope, so he told Su Hao a lot about how he defected to the Yang family.
Su Hao didn't refute, he just hummed to express that he heard it.
Regarding Su Hao, Yang Chaodong did not think he was a threat to him, so he had no idea of killing him quickly. Su Hao's unexplored mining skills were something Yang Chaodong valued very much. This was why he wanted to detain Su Hao.
s reason.
The Yang family and his son are ambitious people, and they want to take advantage of the weakness of the Ming Dynasty to expand their territory and power. When it comes to fighting, the Yang family and his son are not afraid of anything, but raising troops itself costs money. This is the Yang family's
The biggest heartache of father and son.
The appearance of Su Hao gave the Yang family a hope. They thought that if they could recruit Su Hao and ask him to help them prospect for mines, they could earn more money through mining and use it to raise troops and achieve great achievements.
His own hegemony. Currently, there are no good mineral deposits in Bozhou. In the future, if the Yang family can occupy the surrounding prefectures such as Chongqing, Sizhou, Guiyang, Zhenxiong, etc., and then send Su Hao to explore for minerals, wouldn't it be possible to support the country through war?
The purpose of the war?
Out of this idea, Yang Chaodong asked Wang Qifeng to take Su Hao to Qixing Mountain to imprison him, hoping to make Su Hao change his original intention and agree to cooperate with the Yang family. As for Su Hao spying on Qixing Mountain because of this.
Yang Chaodong didn't care about the actual situation of the army hoarding. He believed that Su Hao was incapable of escaping from the army.
Passing through the military camp, the group walked on the road up the mountain. After walking for about a mile, a Taoist temple hidden among the green trees appeared in front of them. The building of the Taoist temple looked a little dilapidated, and the lintel was engraved with the word "Qingfeng".
The characters are simple and simple, and the edges are still a little damaged. They must have been a few years ago. Several soldiers from the Bozhou Army stood outside the Taoist temple, holding spears in their hands, guarding the gate of the Taoist temple.
"Master Su Tian, please take a look, this is Qingfeng Taoist Temple." Pi Yuanfu enthusiastically introduced it to Su Hao.
"Sure enough, it is a blessed land of cave heaven and a good place for spiritual cultivation." Su Hao praised. He pointed at the soldiers and asked Pi Yuanfu in a strange tone: "General Pi, why are there soldiers guarding this Taoist temple?
?”
Pi Yuanfu said: "I heard that Su Tianshi was going to move into Qingfeng Temple, so a certain family had people tidy up the Taoist temple inside and out, and sent more guards to prevent Xiaoxiao's disciples from coming to disturb Su Tianshi's Qingfeng Temple.
Xiu. Not only are there guards here, but there are guards within 50 feet around the Taoist temple. Su Tianshi can just stay here without worries."
"Then...where are the original Taoist friends in the temple?" Su Hao asked again.
Pi Yuanfu said: "This Qingfeng Temple has been dilapidated for a long time. It turns out that there are a few sour Taoist priests still living there, growing food and vegetables for their own consumption. When a certain family brought troops to build the Qixing Mountain Army Store, they all
...Uh, they were all kicked away.”
When the word "drive away" was mentioned, Pi Yuanfu showed an ambiguous smile on his face, the meaning of which was self-evident. With the style of Yang's father and son, such a thing would not be a simple matter at all.
After expelling people, it is estimated that those poor Taoist priests will be silenced directly, and they will not be allowed to gossip elsewhere.
"Infinite Heavenly Lord..." Su Hao recited a Taoist name and prayed for the Taoists.
Pi Yuanfu led the way, and Su Hao and others followed them into the Taoist temple. The Taoist temple is not large in size. Apart from the two main halls, there are only seven or eight houses next to it. It is probably where Taoist priests lived in the past. Plants are planted in the yard.
There are some big trees, towering ancient trees, and thick shade blocking out the sun, adding a sense of tranquility to the yard.
As Pi Yuanfu said, before Su Hao and others arrived, the Taoist temple had been cleaned up. The old spider webs had been picked out, and the weeds and fallen leaves had been cleaned up. It looked quite clean.
appearance.
Su Hao walked into the room arranged for him to live in. Two young girls dressed as maids quickly bowed and saluted, calling him "Young Master", and came up to help Su Hao undress. Su Hao took a peek and saw that the two girls were in stature.
It's not bad, but the face is quite rough, with some dark and red colors. He knows that this is because Guizhou is located on a plateau and has strong ultraviolet rays. The skin of local people is like this, and girls are no exception.
"These two girls will serve Su Tianshi from now on. There are also some other girls, I will have them sent up another day." Pi Yuanfu said. When he was at the foot of the mountain, he claimed that he had prepared more than a dozen girls for Su Hao.
It seems that beauties from all over the country are just saying that. They only chose these two, and they are just firewood girls from the countryside. However, Su Hao had no intention of continuing the family lineage here, so he didn't care about it.
"Are Master Su Tian satisfied with Qingfeng Taoist Temple?" Wang Qifeng asked.
"Satisfied, satisfied. It's not much worse than my Yuhuashan Taoist Temple." Su Hao said. Since he claimed to be the successor of the Yuhuashan Taoist Sect, he naturally wanted to invent a Yuhuashan Taoist Temple to bluff people.
Wang Qifeng said: "Since Su Tianshi is satisfied, that's great. In the future, I would like to ask Su Tianshi to live here and study Taoism."
"Mr. Wang, will I have to stay here in the temple from now on and won't be able to take a step out of the temple?" Su Hao asked.
Wang Qifeng said with a smile: "What did Master Su say? We just want to keep Master Su to practice in Bozhou, how dare we restrict Master Su's dignity? Master Su wants to go out for fun, so I'll do whatever you want. However,
It is said that there are wild beasts on Qixing Mountain. For safety reasons, it is best for Su Tianshi not to go too far. In addition, it is best to take the guards we have equipped for Su Tianshi with you when you go out."
"Mr. Wang has thought carefully, and Su will bear it in mind." Su Hao replied politely.
Pi Yuanfu accompanied Su Hao and Wang Qifeng to have a meal, and then returned to the military camp. However, before leaving, he made an appointment with Su Hao, saying that he would go up to the mountain to ask for advice in the future. Wang Qifeng stayed in the Taoist temple.
After spending the night, he got up the next day and said to Su Hao very apologetically that he still had official duties and could not accompany Su Hao to do the Qing Dynasty here. Su Hao naturally expressed his regrets in a pretentious manner, and then watched Wang Qi go.
Feng went down the mountain.
After Wang Qifeng left, only Su Hao, He Benzheng and Xiong Minyang were left in the Taoist temple. In addition, Wang Qifeng left behind more than a dozen soldiers from the General's Office to monitor Su Hao and others. The little leader of the soldiers was named Liu.
He is talented, and he is somewhat clever, but his stag-like eyebrows really ruin this name.
Outside the Taoist temple, there were 100 chieftain soldiers arranged by Pi Yuanfu, who were divided into several sentries inside and outside to guard the Taoist temple. It was under such circumstances that Su Hao began his life of house arrest. (To be continued.
