Lying on the bed, Mo Li remembered the conversation he had with Fan Qi last night.

When Mo Li asked about the human implantation experiment that Fan Jin said, Fan Qi smiled and confessed: "The National Teacher has misunderstood, although there is something wrong with this Agricultural Technology Division, it has not carried out such a cruel experiment. This was originally the official to bluff my nephew, so that he would not wade into this troubled water. ”

No wonder he always felt that this kind of thing was always weird, and now when he heard Fan Qi's explanation, he was immediately relieved. When Mo Li asked what was wrong with this agricultural technology division, Fan Qi was silent, only saying that Yang Kaitai and Wu Qing were seeking personal gain, but he didn't say anything.

Combined with Fan Qi's words and the tasks assigned to him by Qu Jing, Mo Li could also figure out an idea, so he didn't ask more, but talked about something else.

What Mo Li didn't know was that after he left Fan's Mansion, Fan Qi turned out all the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, Romance of the Three Kingdoms, Zizhi Tongjian, and miscellaneous foreign objects, and understood Jia Xu in an all-round way, and made a quite objective evaluation of him, "Jia Xu is very good at speculating on people's minds, and he is ruthless, so he can't be taken lightly." Then he got to know the rest of the people, and thus determined that "the wise man who the national teacher thinks is not a scheming man, but a good one who knows his heart." ”

When I woke up, it was past noon.

After calculating the time, it has been almost two months since I came to Yingtian, and I think Liu Zixiao should be almost there. So after hastily eating something, changing his appearance to Li Mo, he went to the mansion.

At the same time, in Xuzhou, which is three hundred miles away from Yingtianfu, Liu Zixiao encountered some trouble.

After all, they are traveling on behalf of the Ming Dynasty, Liu Zixiao and his entourage will definitely not be shabby, and the team of more than 1,000 people, large and small grains, grass, gold and silver, will pull more than 20 carts. This aroused the greed of the rebel army in Xuzhou and prepared to carry out a robbery operation.

"Which army is ahead? Why don't you say hello when you pass by my Xuzhou?" asked Shao Qiang, the leader of the Xuzhou army, in a loud voice. Looking at the flag, he also knew the origin of Liu Zixiao and his party, so he didn't really want to ask, just to find a slightly defensible excuse for his robbery.

Hearing someone in front of him, Liu Qian felt that something was wrong, and immediately protected Liu Zixiao behind him, and replied: "We are the Ming court army, and we are going to Yingtian on the orders of Your Majesty. I don't know who the general is, and why are you blocking my way?"

Shao Qiang immediately shouted angrily: "The troops of the Bird Imperial Court, are the troops of your imperial court so rude, and they don't greet their master when they pass through my Xuzhou realm? In this way, General Ben will not embarrass you." As long as you leave the grain, grass, and gold and silver soft, the general will let you go. ”

When Liu Qian heard this, he didn't get angry but laughed: "It's just a small time, and you deserve to let my imperial army give you a gift? ”

Liu Qian said that, and without waiting for Shao Qiang to answer, he immediately slapped his horse forward and stabbed Shao Qiang with a shot. Where has Shao Qiang ever seen such a scene? In the past, the battle was to see who had more people on both sides, and if the difference was too big, then the other side would surrender directly. If the difference is not too great, there will be a symbolic fight on that side, and the side with fewer people will soon surrender. Who would have thought that this Liu Qian, with more than 1,000 people, would dare to lead 20,000 people against him, and he didn't communicate much, so he killed him directly.

Speaking of which, Shao Qiang is also unlucky, if he encounters any real commander general, then he can at least spray a mouth cannon with the other party, and when the real fight starts, he can also retreat in time. But who would have thought that this Liu Qian was originally from Jinyiwei, and the most annoying thing in ordinary times was the mouth cannon. What he advocates is the characteristics of the Northeast: "Be able to do it and try not to make noise." In addition, the force was far superior to Shao Qiang on the other side, and he immediately stabbed Shao Qiang in the chest with one shot.

Seeing Shao Qiang's death, Liu Qian turned his wrist, changed the direction of the gun, and directly took off Shao Qiang's head, picked it at the tip of the gun, and said loudly: "The enemy general has already given the head, and the defeated pawn has not surrendered!?"

The difference between a disciplined army and a peasant rebel army can be seen here. Seeing Shao Qiang's death, these more than 20,000 people seemed to explode into a pot, and they suddenly became a mess.

Seeing this, Liu Qian hurriedly sent more than 1,000 soldiers to surround these defeated troops.

But that's when the accident happened. The soldiers went to encircle and suppress the enemy, and Liu Zixiao, who was still young, was left there alone. Just when Liu Zixiao was worried, a cold arrow flew towards him at some point.

Liu Qian also saw this scene, but where was his speed comparable to the cold arrow? Immediately shocked, he roared angrily, "No!" Seeing that the arrow flew towards Liu Zixiao's heart, he could do nothing but pray to the sky that the arrow missed.

Just when the arrow was less than half a meter away from Liu Zixiao, a stone shot from nowhere, and the arrow in the high-speed flying shot fell in two sections and fell in front of Liu Zixiao.

As soon as the broken arrow was subjected to the reaction force of the ground and bounced up in the direction of the sky, a figure appeared in front of Liu Zixiao, and said disdainfully: "Xiao Xiaojun, dare to hurt people with a secret arrow, don't you take me Mo Er in your eyes?"

It turned out that before they traveled, Zhu Youzhen predicted that there might be danger on the way, so he sent Mo Er, who was protecting him, to secretly protect Liu Zixiao. There was nothing abnormal along the way, so Mo Er did not show up, but just hid in the shadows, secretly protecting the safety of this Liu Zixiao.

Seeing that Liu Zixiao was fine, Liu Qian breathed a sigh of relief, and at the same time, he angrily rushed towards the person who released the cold arrow, and kicked it in the person's face, and even directly kicked half of the person's cheek, and the anger in his heart can be seen from this.

After a few feet and kicked the person who put the cold arrow in an inhuman, dead and no longer dead, Liu Qian came to Mo Er, hugged his fists and said, "Liu Qian is polite." I have long heard that the National Master has a second disciple, and his martial arts attainments are the first among the three disciples, protecting His Majesty's safety day and night. Now that I have the fate to see it, I am really fortunate to have three lives. ”

Mo Er was obviously not the kind of person who was good at communicating with people, he just smiled at Liu Qian, and did not say anything modest, nor did he have any proud words. However, Mo Er's move made Liu Qian feel that Mo Er was even more unfathomable. In Liu Qian's impression, masters are so cold and don't like to communicate with others.

After cleaning up the battlefield, a soldier reported to Liu Zixiao: "Lord Qiqi, this time our army did not hurt a single soldier, and 10,000 soldiers were surrendered, and more than 1,000 enemy soldiers were killed, all of whom died in the stampede, and more than 6,000 people fled. What should we do with these ten thousand six soldiers now? ”

After thinking about it, Liu Zixiao decided: "You go down and tell them that those who are willing to surrender to my Ming court can surrender to our army, and the court will definitely not treat them badly, and ensure that they will not eat three meals a day, and will also give ten taels of silver and twenty stones of corn every year as a salary." Those who do not want to surrender can leave on their own, and we will not force them to stay. ”

"This ......" The soldier was a little unsure why Liu Zixiao did this, and the soldier he had worked so hard to catch on his side, this kid said that he would let it go? But as the so-called "official level crushes people to death", not to mention that Liu Zixiao is more than one level older than his official position? Naturally, he did not dare to refute it, so he had to do it.

What the soldiers didn't expect was that when the soldiers heard that there were ten taels of silver and twenty stones of rice every year, more than 90% of the people were moved. In the end, a total of 13,741 soldiers were recruited, and only about 2,000 chose to leave.

In the way that Xiang Yu mixed Liu Bangjun, he split all these soldiers, and let his 1,000 soldiers each take care of 13 people, and the remaining 700 people were managed by Liu Qian and Mo Er.

After arranging these, the original army of more than 1,000 people instantly expanded to nearly 15,000. As a result, the other rebel forces that were still on the verge of making a move died down in an instant, dispelling the idea of robbing Liu Zixiao.
