Three days later, on November 5, 1850 in the Heavenly Calendar, Li Hongzhang rushed to Juezhou.

Here, he will meet with Zuo Zongtang, who has arrived from Changsha, to make comprehensive arrangements for the rescue of Zeng Guoquan, of course, under a larger framework - the second purge of the rebels near Jintian.

In the past few days, Li Hongzhang has been tossed and almost scattered, not only mentally, but also physically.

Three days ago, he received a message from Feiying, telling him to go to Lingzhou to meet with Zuo Zongtang, and the meeting time was three days later, and he had to hurry up to arrive.

Because the content of the meeting was to save people and eliminate people, Lao Chongguang and Xiang Rong also had to go! Therefore, the three of them immediately set off with their guards and subordinates and hurried day and night.

During the day, riding horses, racing against time, and at night there was no rest, so I found a few carriages and let these adults lie on them, resting while hurrying.

Yesterday, he received a handwritten letter from Zeng Guofan, in addition to telling him the overall plan, he also gave him a special task, to send a letter to Mai Ke.

It's going to kill him!

If he could find Mai Ke, he would have gone to him himself!

The things that the marshal confessed, no matter how difficult it is, have to be done, not to mention that he is guilty of meritorious service?

He racked his brains before he remembered that Ye Mingchen from Gwangju might have a way, and hurriedly asked him for help in a hurry.

Ye Mingchen also replied to him quickly, saying that he could give it a try, but there was no guarantee of success.

Li Hongzhang had no choice but to use the dead horse as a live horse doctor, and sent the most reliable and martial arts guards around him out. went straight to Guangzhou and handed the letter directly to the person introduced by Ye Mingchen.

Li Hongzhang specially told the sender not to hand it over to others, not anyone, including Ye Mingchen.

He didn't dare to disobey the matters assigned by his mentor.

What Li Hongzhang didn't know was that the person introduced by Ye Mingchen was Ning Ningrui, the general manager of Gwangju of the Ning family, and the successor designated by the current head of the family.

From Mai Ke's last activity in Gwangju, he learned that the relationship between the two was extraordinary. So I'm pretty sure if I give Mai Ke something. I was sure that she would hand it over.

I have to say that Ye Mingchen's judgment is very accurate, although Ning Ningrui does not know the specific location of Mai Ke, she knows how to find him.

Therefore. After she received the letter from Zeng Guofan to Mai Ke. Immediately send Xuan Xiao to the Holy Mountain. Give it to Sven.

Sven is no ordinary mayor, he is actually in charge of all the functions of the central body of the kingdom of heaven, including the information center.

A piece of content tracked by the military section of the information center. It's Mai Ke's movements, so Sven knows where Mai Ke is.

Therefore, Zeng Guofan's letter arrived in Mai Ke's hand when Li Hongzhang was still on his way to Juezhou.

Mai Ke finished reading the contents of the letter, smiled slightly, and then rubbed his hands lightly, and the letter turned into powder.

He memorized the contents, and he didn't have to worry about the evidence, because the original had been stored in the information center, and Mai Ke only received a copy.

As soon as Li Hongzhang arrived in Juezhou, he couldn't take care of the saddle horse, and he didn't have time to worry about whether the things he had arranged before would be completed, because more things had to be discussed with Zuo Zongtang, which were all important matters.

He requisitioned the government of the Lingzhou Prefecture as a meeting place, and then sat down in the reception room, taking the opportunity to take a rest, while waiting for Zuo Zongtang's arrival.

At noon, Zuo Zongtang arrived, and there were seven or eight people who came to the reception room with him.

Except for Kangfu, Luo Zenan, and Taqib, Li Hongzhang didn't know anyone.

Especially the three men and one woman standing behind Kang Fu, people can see at a glance that they are not ordinary people.

A bald man, with eight or nine ring scars on his head, stepped forward and sang: "The old monk has nothing to do, I have seen all the donors!"

Everyone couldn't help but be happy in the tense atmosphere, you are only thirty years old, this is the old man? You want the old man, am I waiting for the old man, or too na?

Besides, your name is too out of tune, isn't it? Wuxing? What kind of monk are you going to be? Youxing is almost the same, even if you have less Xing, it is better than Wuxing.

Kang Fu struck the gong next to him and said: "Master Monk is the chief coach of the warrior monks of Southern Shaolin, the master of the warrior monk's hall, strong in martial arts, invincible opponents all over the world, and I am invited to help with boxing!"

The only lady also took a step forward, and this step also brought out a strong wind, and she waved her hands: "Emei Zhao Qingluan!

Everyone looks at this person at most twenty-three or four, how can he open the wings of imagination and can't connect with Shitai! To be a Shitai is not seventy or eighty, at least fifty years old, right?

If Luo Qingfeng was there, she would definitely shout in surprise: "Huh, Senior Sister is out of the customs? Ahem, why are you following this troubled water? Come with me!"

Then, two other dull weirdos also made introductions, and finally let everyone know that one of them is from Wudang and the other is from Kongtong.

Although the one from Wudang said very little, he at least introduced himself clearly, but the one from Kongtong only came with a sentence of "Kong Dong" and it was over, thanks to Kangfu's addition, everyone knew that he was from Kongtong, and he was also a martial arts master, and he was also at the level of an invincible opponent all over the world.

At first, everyone listened to "fight all over the world invincible" and felt very shocked, after listening to it four times, they wondered, it turned out to be a universal adjective, just like I see you are beautiful, it means a mood, an attitude.

The specific size of his world probably varies from person to person, for example, the Kongtong faction is probably the mountain where they live.

Hearing that they each brought twenty elites from their own sect to find trouble with Mai Ke, everyone still expressed a warm welcome!

After meeting with everyone, Kang Fu said goodbye to everyone, since they are based on a sneak attack, it is not suitable to discuss here, the main purpose of their meeting here is to inform everyone that there is their gang, don't rush the Dragon King Temple when the water is there, and fight with their own families.

After the five warriors left, Zuo Zongtang took over the presiding officer of the meeting and told everyone that the marshal specially ordered him to be responsible for rescuing Zeng Guoquan, and all manpower and material resources must be kept successful!

Li Hongzhang first stated that he must obey the command and go all out to rescue!

Then, Zuo Zongtang inquired about the original clean-up arrangements, especially the arrangement of military strength.

Xiang Rong Overseer is the person in charge and made a detailed report.

Zuo Zongtang did not make major changes, but only added the elite of Xiangyong brought by Taqibu and Luo Zenan, and appointed the two as the commanders of the former enemy, and all the troops were under the command of the two respectively.

In this way, although Xiang Rong is still in charge in name, his actual power is hollowed out.

Xiang Rong couldn't help muttering in his heart, could it be that the contradiction between me and Zeng Guoquan was known by Zeng Guofan and wanted to repair me? This is the rhythm of retaliation and removing stumbling blocks!.
