Chapter 119: Conspiracy to seize Yang Gong's treasure house, set up the Hall of Virtue, the military god Li Jing surrenders, and the South China Sea Immortal Chao Gongcuo!
Yangzhou.
in the afternoon.
Qin Shuang's original Qianlong Palace has been changed to Tianji Palace.
At the entrance of the palace, there were four guards with swords on their waists standing on each side.
"Currently, civil servants are scarce in the Tianqin Army."
Qin Shuang sat in the hall, looking at the case files piled on the desk, a thoughtful look in his eyes.
As the number of soldiers and horses increases, there are more and more things that need to be decided by myself.
This requires some civil servants to screen the matters in advance and review the important ones themselves. If they have to take care of every detail, how would they have the time to fight for dominance in the world?
Just then, two figures came quickly.
Qin Shuang didn't need to look, he already knew from his twenty-foot state of mind that the two military advisors coming were Zhuge Cheng and Xu Xingzhi.
"Two military advisors, sit down!"
Qin Shuang looked at the two military advisors with a warm expression.
These two people were both full of wisdom and strategies, and Zhuge Cheng was called Little Zhuge.
In the original drama, Xu Xingzhi helped Kou Zhong to seize the world.
At this moment, Qin Shuang was very curious. Kou Zhong's military advisor Xu Xingzhi and the support of Lingnan had been snatched away by him. How could Kou Zhong fight for the world?
Kou Zhong and Xu Ziling are both very capable and have great potential in the future. If we can recruit them into our team, it will be a great help!
It would be a bit troublesome if she was kidnapped by Li Shimin.
"Marshal, our army has increased to 50,000. The cost of food, weapons, armor, war horses, medicinal materials, etc. is extremely huge. Although there are taxes from three big cities, the world is in chaos and the tax revenue has decreased. Relatively speaking, it is still insufficient. We must increase revenue."
Zhuge Cheng looked at Qin Shuang and clasped his fists respectfully.
"Well, I'll take care of that."
Qin Shuang nodded and said, "How long can it last?"
Two military advisors arrived, one attacking and one defending.
He planned to go to Chang'an to take out Yang Gong's treasury. If he could take out the gold and silver treasures in Yang Gong's treasury, he could perfectly solve the current problem.
According to the time, Kou Zhong and Xu Ziling had not yet gone to Chang'an.
"It will last four to five months."
Zhuge Cheng thought for a moment and said.
"That's enough time."
"I will resolve this matter as soon as possible."
Qin Shuang nodded and said, "Our Tianqin Army is just starting out. If we want to develop, we need talents. Military Advisor Zhuge can order someone to set up a Hall of Virtue to recruit talents from all over the world!"
Qin Shuang knew that the more talented people there were, the better.
The reason why Li Shimin was able to accomplish things was that he treated wise men with respect and had many capable people under his command. Military Advisor Xu would next take Zuo Xiaoyou and others to Jiujiang to attack Lin Shihong, and the matter of setting up the Xian De Hall would have to be handed over to Zhuge Cheng.
"Marshal, you are wise. I and Military Advisor Xu are here to advise you on this matter!"
After hearing Qin Shuang's words, Zhuge Cheng and Xu Xingzhi looked at each other and smiled.
"Ok!"
"You guys go do it!"
Qin Shuang nodded to the two of them.
Zhuge Cheng and Xu Xingzhi turned and left.
"Someone, ask Chen Laomou to come to the Tianji Palace."
Qin Shuang spoke in a loud voice.
"Yes, Marshal!"
At the palace gate, a guard turned and left.
Not long after, an old man in his fifties came in quickly, and as soon as he entered the hall, he respectfully clasped his fists to Qin Shuang. "Chen Laomou greets the Marshal!"
"Mr. Chen, sit down!"
Qin Shuang motioned Chen Laomou to sit down. He took out the structural drawing of the flywheel warship that he had copied and placed it in front of Chen Laomou, saying, "Mr. Chen, take a look. Can this be made?"
Qin Shuang knew that Chen Laomou was skilled in ingenuity, lock picking, and forging. Although he could not be compared with Lu Miaozi, he should have no problem making this flywheel warship.
"There are four wheels on the side, each with eight oars, and four people are in charge of turning the wheels to stir the water. People are placed in front and behind, and they pedal the wheel to move forward and backward. There are three streams, up, middle and down, and it turns like flying. This."
".Marshal, this flywheel warship is a brilliant idea!"
Chen Laomou looked at the flywheel warship in front of him, his eyes showing surprise, and murmured, "Marshal, give me some time, it will be no problem to make it!"
"Very good, this is called the Flywheel Battleship, and it was made by Master Lu Miaozi!"
Qin Shuang smiled slightly and said.
"Hiss? Master Lu Miaozi?"
Chen Laomou was shocked when he heard this. As a skilled craftsman, he had naturally heard of Lu Miaozi, the best craftsman in the world, and he admired him very much. He never expected that he would have the honor to obtain Master Lu's flywheel warship manufacturing drawings!
"Well! I want you to bring a group of people to install this kind of flywheel on all the large ships under our Tianqin Army. However, they need to be slightly modified and the flywheel hidden under the belly of the ship. Our Tianqin Navy depends on Old Chen!"
Qin Shuang nodded and said.
"Marshal, rest assured. I will live up to your trust! I will lead the team to build this flywheel warship!"
There was anticipation in Chen Laomou's eyes.
Qin Shuang looked at Chen Laomou's back as he left with an excited look on his face, with anticipation in his eyes.
By then, with Yun Yuzhen training the navy and equipped with warships equipped with flywheels, won't the waterways of the world be dominated by the Tianqin navy?
"Reporting to the Marshal, there is a man outside who wants to see you! He calls himself Li Jing! He said he once joined the Hidden Dragon Society and knows you!"
At this moment, a guard from the Tianqin Army came in quickly, knelt on one knee in the hall, and reported respectfully.
"Li Jing?"
Qin Shuang was shocked when he heard this. He remembered that Li Jing went to Taiyuan to join the Li family. He had not accomplished anything at that time, so naturally he had no reason to keep Li Jing.
Afterwards, he felt quite regretful that he missed the opportunity to meet the God of War.
did not expect.
Li Jing actually came here. Could it be that Li Jing did not join Li Shimin's camp?
Thinking of this, Qin Shuang was filled with anticipation and immediately asked, "Where is he?!"
"In the reception hall!"
The Tian Qin Army soldier had just finished speaking when he found that the Marshal's figure flashed and disappeared.
Qin Shuang's figure flashed and appeared five feet away from the reception hall.
"Brother Li! It's really you!"
He saw a tall and strong young man, about twenty-three or twenty-four years old, with a package on his shoulder, standing in the reception hall, looking exhausted. Immediately, his figure flashed and appeared in front of Li Jing.
When Li Jing saw Qin Shuang coming to greet him personally, he immediately shook his body and saluted Qin Shuang with his fists. "Li Jing, meet Marshal Qin!"
"Brother Li, I missed you so much after we parted that day. I didn't expect you to come!"
"that is really good!"
Qin Shuang immediately stepped forward and hugged Li Jing's arms, excitement in his eyes. He gave an order to Baoqin who was not far away, asking her to prepare wine and food.
He saw that Li Jing looked exhausted and probably had not had time to eat.
Not long after.
The Tianji Hall was filled with wine and food, and in front of Qin Shuang and Li Jing, there was a jar of bamboo leaf wine each.
Baoqin walked forward, broke the mud seal on a jar of bamboo leaf wine, and filled them for Qin Shuang and Li Jing.
"Brother Li, we hit it off right away. We've been through thick and thin together. It's been a long time since we last met. I won't go home until I'm drunk today!"
Qin Shuang looked at Li Jing and raised the bowl enthusiastically.
"You won't come home until you're drunk!"
Li Jing nodded, picked up the wine bowl, toasted Qin Shuang, tilted his head back and drank, the wine flowed down his short beard onto his chest, his face flushed slightly, took a sip of the wine and food, looked at Qin Shuang, and sighed. "I didn't expect that after not seeing you for a long time, Brother Qin, you have become the marshal of the Tian Qin Army, sitting on three cities, with 50,000 soldiers, and becoming a powerful anti-king force. Li Jing really admires you!" Li Jing came all the way to Yangzhou, and had already inquired about Qin Shuang's deeds clearly.
"Brother Li is overly praised!"
Qin Shuang waved his hand modestly and said, "By the way, how is the situation after Brother Li left Yangzhou?"
"Hey, after I left Yangzhou, I encountered bandits on the way to Taiyuan. I was unwilling to be robbed, so I killed the bandits. I was also seriously injured, with broken legs and ribs. Fortunately, a kind-hearted person from a small village rescued me. When I recovered from my injuries and went to Taiyuan, I found that the situation of Li Tang was not good. It just so happened that I heard that Brother Qin was developing rapidly in Yangzhou, so I came to seek refuge with you!"
"I wonder if Marshal Qin is willing to take me in?"
Li Jing sighed, looked at Qin Shuang and said.
"Brother Li, what are you talking about?"
"If you are willing to help me, I welcome you with open arms. Of course I am willing! With Brother Li's help, it will be just a matter of time before our Tianqin Army unifies the world!"
Hearing Li Jing's words, Qin Shuang's eyes immediately lit up, and he grabbed Li Jing's hands and spoke in a loud voice.
He knew it.
This is a military god. With him, the Tianqin Army will be more powerful in conquering cities and territories.
There are also two military advisors to help.
He could then go to Chang'an with peace of mind, take the gold and silver treasures from Yang Gong's treasury, and solve the future financial crisis faced by the Tianqin Army.
"Li Jing pays respect to Marshal Qin!"
Hearing Qin Shuang's words, Li Jing looked determined. He suddenly stood up and knelt in front of Qin Shuang.
"Brother Li, please stand up!"
Seeing this, Qin Shuang hurriedly helped Li Jing up.
After Qin Shuang and Li Jing had an in-depth conversation, Li Jing looked at Qin Shuang and said firmly, "I will always remember the Marshal's kindness. However, I am a newcomer and have no achievements or prestige. If I am entrusted with an important task, it will be difficult for me to convince the others. I'd better start as a soldier and slowly accumulate achievements!"
When Li Jing heard Qin Shuang say that he wanted to entrust him with an important task, he immediately refused firmly.
"How about this, Jiujiang is guarded by Liu Yong, Tu Hongzhen, Ding Zhen and others. Tomorrow you will go to Jiujiang with Advisor Xu and one of the Six Tiger Generals, Zuo Xiaoyou, to cooperate with Advisor Xu to attack Lin Shihong, and then you will be promoted based on your merits. What do you think?"
Qin Shuang knew Li Jing's abilities. He thought that such a talented general must be put to good use as soon as possible. He originally planned to let him lead the army like Han Xin, but he was determined, so Qin Shuang had no choice but to let him do it.
Currently.
Military advisor Zhuge was in charge of Jiangdu and Yangzhou, and asked Li Jing and military advisor Xu Xingzhi to cooperate to deal with Lin Shihong. In the south, the Lingnan Song clan joined forces with Xiao Xin to continuously attack Lin Shihong. This formed a two-pronged attack, making Lin Shihong lose sight of one thing while focusing on another.
It would be even better if Lin Shihong could be eliminated!
He went to Chang'an and took out Yang Gong's treasure house in advance.
after all.
The three armies must have food and fodder before they move. He must ensure the food and fodder for the three armies.
"Yes, Marshal!"
Upon hearing this, Li Jing immediately bowed to Qin Shuang and agreed.
Yangzhou.
Thirty miles away, Qin Shuang, wearing a black cloak with gold edges, stood at the bow of a large ship. Beside him was Shan Wanjing, who was wearing a white dress and holding a folding fan and had an extraordinary beauty.
"Brother Qin, I know you have the ability to kill Bian Bufu. You can go to Chang'an first, finish your business, and then help me get revenge!"
Shan Wanjing looked at Qin Shuang, her beautiful eyes flashing. She guessed from Qin Shuang's expression that Qin Shuang's matter this time was more important.
"Thank you for your understanding, Your Majesty!"
"After I finish dealing with the matter in Chang'an, I will definitely help you kill Bian Bufu!"
Qin Shuang looked at Shan Wanjing and said in a deep voice.
Shan Wanjing is indeed considerate. Logically speaking, if someone takes something from someone, she should help the person get revenge and kill Bian Bufu. However, as the Tianqin army grows stronger, there is not enough money. This is related to the fight for hegemony over the world and must be resolved as soon as possible.
did not expect.
Shan Wanjing brought it up herself.
"Ok!"
Shan Wanjing nodded heavily, looked at Qin Shuang, her beautiful eyes shining, and said, "Brother Qin, you can just call me Wanjing from now on. Isn't it a bit too formal to call me princess?"
"Okay, then I'll call you Wanjing from now on!"
Qin Shuang smiled slightly and nodded.
"Ok!"
Shan Wanjing looked at Qin Shuang deeply and said, "I won't disturb you from practicing swordsmanship, you can continue!"
"Together, you also practice your inner strength."
Qin Shuang smiled at Shan Wanjing, walked into the cabin immediately, picked up the flying knife and shot it. Shan Wanjing sat cross-legged on the side, practicing her internal skills.
"Marshal, here's the information the Song clan's spies just sent us!"
Qin Shuang practiced with the sword for a while, and suddenly, a blue-clothed guard came forward and handed him a wax scroll.
"Oh?"
Qin Shuang took the wax scroll, opened it and looked at it for a while, then looked into the distance outside the cabin, his brows slightly furrowed.
"Brother Qin, what's wrong?"
Seeing that Qin Shuang didn't say anything, Shan Wanjing slowly opened her beautiful eyes and asked.
Although she was sitting and practicing, she looked at Qin Shuang from time to time and couldn't calm down at all.
"Wagang Li Mi asked the two evil men of Changbai to kill me but failed, so he asked Chao Gongcuo, the Nanhai Immortal from the Nanhai School of Zhuya County in Nanhai, to take action and he is trying to find out my whereabouts!"
"They are currently in Yanshi City between Luoyang and Wei County!"
Qin Shuang spoke in a calm tone.
"The South Sea Immortal Chao Gongcuo?!"
Shan Wanjing was shocked when she heard Qin Shuang's words.
According to the information she knew, Li Mi had sent special envoys many times to ask Huang Gongcuo to come out of retirement because his father Li Kuan had done great favors to the Nanhai Faction after Li Mi started his rebellion. However, it was not until Emperor Yang was murdered by Yu Wenzhi that Huang Gongcuo agreed and promised that the Nanhai Faction would do its best to help Li Mi conquer the world.
did not expect.
In order to kill Brother Qin, Li Mi actually let Chao Gong make the wrong move!
"Ah."
Qin Shuang nodded and said in a cold tone, "Since Li Mi has been trying to find out my whereabouts and asked Chao Gongcuo to kill me, I will just go to their house and kill them first! If I can meet the people from Wagang, it would be even better if I can kill a few of them!"
Although Qin Shuang had never met Chao Gongcuo.
It is estimated that Chao Gongcuo should be stronger than the Demon Sect's Bi Shouxuan and comparable to the Demon Sect's eight great masters. However, he is not afraid.
Bi Shouxuan still solved it with one sword.
As for Chao Gongcuo, he could probably be killed with just one blow, or at most two.
Since Li Mi was trying to find out information about him, he would just go and kill Chao Gongcuo. Anyway, on the way to Chang'an, he would pass by Luoyang Yanshi on the way.
Always being hunted.
Now, let others have a taste of being hunted!
"Brother Qin, is your matter serious? Why don't we go and do the important things first? There's no need to waste time on Chao Gongcuo!"
Shan Wanjing's beautiful eyes flashed as she spoke.
She knew it.
The Immortal Huang Gongcuo of the South China Sea is a master of the same generation as Ning Daoqi, a grandmaster-level figure. The current head of the South China Sea School, Mei Xun, is only his disciple's grandson.
It is said that Ning Daoqi once fought a decisive battle with Huang Gongcuo on the Leizhou Peninsula. It was only after more than a hundred moves that Huang Gongcuo was defeated by Ning Daoqi's ultimate skill "Eight Punches of Freehand". It can be said that he still won honor in defeat.
This shows the wisdom of "South China Sea Immortal" Huang Gongcuo.
Although she had seen the terrifying power of Brother Qin's flying knife, she had never seen Chao Gongcuo and didn't know how strong Chao Gongcuo was. Moreover, Chao Gongcuo was too famous. He could fight with Ning Daoqi, one of the three great masters, for hundreds of moves. His strength should not be underestimated!
The old man has been practicing for at least sixty years, and Brother Qin is still young, so there is no need for him to take the risk.
"It's okay, just a quick cut."
Qin Shuang waved his hand and said lightly.
