two helmsmen
Gao Ren led his troops through Yingzhou City, but did not stay in Yingzhou. Instead, he left two families, Xu Xianliang and Tao Shang, to defend the city with 3,000 troops.
He granted Xu Xianliang the right to recruit troops to defend Yingzhou.
In order to strengthen the city's defense strength, Xu Xianliang, who was stationed in Yingzhou, could replenish his troops and recruit troops independently.
Gao Ren also led seven thousand troops and went south to Luzhou.
Opening the gate of Yingzhou City, the person who welcomed Gao Ren into the city was Chen Tai, the helmsman of the Huainan branch. Gao Ren invited him to get on the carriage for a while, and then he went south with him.
The young Chen Tai, about thirty years old, was ordered to infiltrate the Song soldiers very early. Because of his tall and rugged appearance, strong martial arts skills, and considerable brains, he was highly valued by Zhang Zuo and became a left-behind general in Yingzhou.
He is a disciple of the Xingyi Boxing Sect and has strong martial arts. Now he is received by the leader. He is so happy that he laughs all night long. He is in good spirits and keeps riding ahead.
Early the next morning.
With the support of Luzhou Neiying, Baiyijiao Jiangbei's new sub-ruler, and Luzhou deputy general Qin Hui, Gao Ren led his troops and captured Luzhou City without any blood.
The morning glow is bright red and the air is fresh.
The breeze blows, making it cool and pleasant.
The crystal clear dewdrops on the green grass rolled down in the morning wind and shattered to the ground like pearls.
Luzhou was once an important anti-gold town in the Song Dynasty and a distribution center for transporting anti-gold materials. It had a lot of grain and grass, horses, supplies, soldiers, and merchants. It had a high city head and thick city walls. After a few years of peace, the city was very prosperous.
Different from the previous occupation of Ruzhou, Gao Ren did not stay in any official's mansion. Instead, he asked Jinbao to buy the "Zifeng Inn", a three-story building with a courtyard and a small lake in the south of the city, as a temporary palace.
Later, accompanied by Chen Tai, he met Qin Hui at the pavilion in the middle of the small lake in the backyard of the "Zifeng Inn".
This small lake is not large in area, but it is very unique. There is a spring in the lake, and the lake water is formed by the spring water. It is green and fresh.
From the third floor of the inn, there is a 100-meter long corridor with a sloping and winding bamboo structure, leading directly to the pavilion in the center of the small lake.
The pavilion, which can seat more than ten people, is surrounded by a few banana leaves, a few bamboo shoots, and a few big trees with curved branches and a faint fragrance floating around.
Looking at the lake, you can see lotus leaves, crescent moon, periwinkle and other flowers and plants in the lake.
There are weeping willows by the lakeside, and the flowers are blooming in brilliant purples and reds.
"The scenery here is really beautiful. Master Qin, who are you? Which sect do you study under? When did you join the religion? Are you married?" Gao Ren looked at the scenery in the lake for a while, then looked sideways at Qin Hui, concerned.
Ask Qin Hui about his family background.
"Master, this subordinate is from Tanzhou. He studied under Master An Gong of the Nanshan Sword Sect and learned the Mizong Sword Technique. He joined the religion three years ago. It happened that Huang Chengcai came to Luzhou to serve as the commander-in-chief and recruit new soldiers. Subordinate
I was ordered to sneak into the military camp and work hard to curry favor with Huang Chengcai for three years. In the early spring of this year, I was promoted to deputy commander-in-chief. However, I have not yet gotten married." Qin Hui bowed to answer and briefly described the process.
He is about twenty years old, has a handsome face, a slender figure and is quite handsome.
"Oh, are you interested in someone? Or maybe you are interested in the daughter of the Yin Shang in the city? I will grant you a marriage in the name of the King of Zhou Dynasty to express my gratitude." Gao Ren heard this, nodded, and tried to win over him.
He noticed that Qin Hui's skin was white and greasy. Although he was wearing a military uniform, he wore a huge gold ring on the middle finger of his left hand. The thick gold necklace around his neck was vaguely visible, and his lips were painted vermilion.
Although Gao Ren is young, he has experienced many life and death disasters. Not to mention now, when he was a useless piece of wood three years ago, he already has a broad vision and a wide range of knowledge. He thought to himself: This Qin Hui, not
Like a military man! He
How did he become the deputy commander? As he said, by working hard to curry favor with Huang Chengcai? How much gold would it cost? How much good income does the Jiangbei branch have for him to spend? This man wears gold and silver.
, is it painted in vermilion and red again, does it look like someone from the martial arts world?
"Haha, thank you, leader. I have fallen in love with someone, she is my cousin. However, she is not in Luzhou. I am still young, so the marriage is not in a hurry. I will wait for the leader to win the world and it will not be too late for me to get married.
"Qin Hui was courteous and bowed to answer, politely rejecting Gao Ren's kindness.
"Very good! Master Qin, thank you for your hard work. You stayed up all night last night, it was very hard. You go back first, rectify the surrendered troops, and then rest for a while, and then form a team with other generals." Gao Ren found another one.
Question: Qin Hui's eyes moved very quickly, and his brain reacted very quickly. Therefore, Gao Ren didn't want to chat with him for too long, so he found an excuse to send him away.
He still likes Chen Tai more.
"As ordered!" Qin Hui was indeed tired, so he bowed and left after hearing this.
"Master Chen, from now on, you will serve as the general manager of the palace and select your loyal disciples who are in charge of the helm as the palace guards. Replace all my original guards. Of course, you must promote them and let them serve as generals in various arms. However,
, the original guards have to be replaced at night, let them have a rest first. Okay, I will also take a rest, you can make arrangements." Gao Ren watched Qin Hui leave and whispered to Chen Tai.
"Yes!" Chen Tai bowed to accept the order, turned around and left.
Gao Ren leaned against the pillars of the pavilion, sat on the stone bench, leaned over and looked at the small lake, closed his eyes and rested. Gu Yuhuan and other palace maids went to decorate the room. He could not go back to his room to sleep for a while, so he could only sleep in the pavilion in the lake.
