The banquet was ready, everyone was ready to be seated, and Hu Chaqing, the envoy who had been silent, stopped Li Guolou and said that there was something to discuss, Zhang Renjun looked at Li Guolou meaningfully, and Li Guolou led a group of civil and military forces to leave

Hu Chaqing took out the document from his sleeve and said, "Li Zhentai, take a look for yourself."

Li Guolou took a bloody letter, glanced at it at a glance and scanned it, and sneered: "Lord Zhentai, bandits have killed countless people in Shandong, and the Sun brothers have done a lot of evil, not just to guard the city, and the law of war must be used during the war, otherwise who is willing to work hard, the servants under Lord Zhentai are unwilling to climb the city, or they still have to use outlaws."

Hu Chaqing said without revealing it: "Well, it makes sense, Lord Futai has already taken care of it, so far, Li Zhentai has no shortage of friends anywhere."

Li Guolou said meaningfully: "The three adults Gao Yi will be grateful when I take down Weishan Island, I don't know what Lord Zhentai thinks of the people of Weishan Island."

Hu Chaqing waved his palm downward with one hand and said: "If Li Zhentai is willing to punish evil and promote good, I will go and persuade Lord Futai to send you sixty boats, Li Zhentai, I already know your plan, isn't it to drive the mosquito boat into Weishan Lake, but you must know that there are many bandit boats, and the mosquito boat escapes faster than rabbits, and the wildfire cannot be burned out, and the spring breeze blows again, and there are endless troubles."

Li Guolou couldn't help but glance at Hu Chaqing, the person who handled the case, and sure enough, he was like a god, his old bottom was exposed, and the hidden killing tricks were not even expected by the three chief soldiers, and he was still a god to hunt him

Li Guolou stretched out his right hand and nodded: "A gentleman's word"

Hu Chaqing held Li Guolou's hand tightly and said: "It's hard to chase the horse"

The two gods cherished each other, and suddenly shortened the distance and went to the banquet hand in hand

As soon as Li Guolou stepped into the West Flower Hall with his front feet, a beautiful shadow suddenly jumped into his arms, startling him, thinking that which singer threw himself into his arms and embraced, and the anger had reached the top of his head, wanting to push away the singer who took advantage of him

"Brother Xiaolou" Du Yingying's tears were like rain, stained with Li Guolou's clothes, Du Yingying had too many grievances to confide in Li Guolou, regardless of the number of people, sobbing endlessly, Li Guolou's official robe was used as a handkerchief, and tears and snot were rubbed up

Li Guolou froze, a kind of love and pity that he couldn't let go, let him involuntarily stroke Du Yingying's hair, and saw Du Yingying's mother Tang Jiaye also crying beside him, and he already understood three points and nodded slightly

Zheng Hengdan said in a low voice: "Li Xuezheng, the governor of Shandong, paid to redeem Du Xianyu, you understand"

Li Guolou took out a handkerchief and handed it to Du Yingying and said, "Silly boy, don't cry so much, the chief is here, wait a while to toast to Engong."

"Well, I listen to Brother Xiaolou's words," Du Yingying shrugged her shoulders and unloaded the burden in her heart, her father Du Xianyu was kidnapped by Sun Meifang, and the kidnappers thought that Du Xianyu's life was worth 100,000 silver dollars, and offered a ransom of 100,000 silver dollars, where did her family get 100,000 silver dollars, and even 50,000 silver dollars couldn't make up the mother and daughter, and the mother and daughter had been trying to save people in Jinan, but fortunately, Zhang Renjun, the governor of Shandong, rescued Du Xianyu with a helping hand

Du Xianyu is a shrewd person, knowing why Zhang Renjun, the governor of Shandong, saved his family, and wants to make a comeback, only to bow his head and admit defeat, and in the future, rely on the relationship between his son-in-law Li Guolou to regroup, Du Xianyu turned against Li Guolou for the Chaoyang plan, and ruined the marriage between Du Yingying and Li Guolou in order to fight for one breath, and now let his wife and daughter come forward to save this marriage, daughter Du Yingying is still an eighteen-year-old chick, and after marrying Li Guolou, he can bring him millions of returns

Li Guolou's impression of Zhang Renjun has completely changed, and he originally wanted to impeach Zhang Renjun, but now, Zhang Renjun is a banner figure in the vanguard of the Qing Dynasty reform, and the important ministers of the Westernization faction have more merit than the future, and it is a natural move to promote Zhang Renjun as the governor in the future

Li Guolou and Zhang Renjun drank without mentioning the word "money", as if Zhang Renjun paid money to rescue Du Xianyu, which was a natural and righteous move, both of them were grasshoppers with old fritters in officialdom and had become a line

"The moon is cloudy and sunny, the moon is full, people have joys and sorrows, I am really happy for you, come to Yingying, brother to give you a cup," Zhang Renjun stood up, and looked like an elder's heroic and righteous spirit

"Big brother Yingying can't speak, do it first as respect," Du Yingying's cheeks were crimson, and she looked good under the oil lamp

In the midst of everyone's jokes, Du Yingying recognized her brother-in-law Zhang Renjun after a while, and good things happened tonight

Li Guolou behaved gracefully and generously, toasted to each official, prepared to lie down and go back to sleep with his head covered, and the beauty was beside him, but he had to pretend to be a gentleman with a bold appearance, and his suppressed personality would be distorted for a long time, and he didn't know when he would be able to marry Du Yingying, I was afraid that it would be next year, and he borrowed wine to drown his sorrows, and Li Guolou soon became drunk

Zheng Hengdan and a Goshha carried Li Guolou out and said with a smile: "Li Zhentai is happy to drink a few more glasses today, don't mind drinking it tomorrow."

Zhang Renjun touched the eight-character beard and smiled: "Well, Xiaobiandan, go to my sister, it's like home here, I'll take care of it."

Zhang Renjun glanced at his master, this move was right, the high branch that climbed Li Guolou, the 100,000 silver dollars were worth it, the Lincheng kidnapping case would not let him be ruined, Li Guolou would protect him, who said that Li Guolou never took bribes, as long as he was willing to put his heart into it, he could still kiss Li Guolou, Zhang Renjun was in a good mood, he was also drunk, the chief drank freely, and his subordinates were all massive, and the two tables in the West Flower Hall were all standing and coming in, lying down, and going out, all of them were happy for Yingying's sister

Du Yingying was happy and melancholy, Li Guolou and her disappeared without saying a few words, how could they fall in love with this kind of man I don't understand the mood of you and me at all, I really want to take a look at the sleepy little Lou brother, how good it is to hug and hug, it's a pity that my mother is watching closely

The next day, Li Guolou said goodbye to Tang Jiaye and Du Yingying, he led an army, and he couldn't show that his children were long, and he should cut off his feelings when he parted

Li Guolou led 200 cavalry to leave Lincheng and go out of the city for ten miles to meet He Fengyu, the general soldier of Yanzhou

Li Guolou hurriedly jumped off the war horse and said with a smile: "Why don't you say it in the city?"

He Fengyu sighed: "Xiao Li, you still don't know my situation, if the peace talks are successful, Sun Meijing turns over, I only have one way to resign, and when I will come back depends on the will of God, now I am guilty, and I don't even have to rely on my subordinates, I only rely on you."

Li Guolou said: "Lao He, you found the wrong person, I can't help you"

He Fengyu pulled the corners of his mouth to show a sneer, pouted slightly, and said: "Xiao Li, you are so desperate to kill Sun Meifang, will you let Sun Meijing go, we two have one heart, I still have a thousand elite ships in my hand, and there are also twenty wooden platoons and a hundred boats, ready to be dispatched by you at any time."

Li Guolou asked: "Lao He, aren't you afraid that Zhang Renjun will settle accounts after the autumn?"

He Fengyu said viciously: "As long as I kill Sun Meijing and rescue the foreign adult, Zhang Renjun will still treat me as a confidant"

Li Guolou patted He Fengyu on the shoulder and said: "Okay, I will help you honestly, Sun Meijing will die, you are a little restless, don't be impatient, even if you resign from your job and investigate, don't worry, you will make a comeback soon, this time I want to wronged you, Lord Fu Xiang's heart is very clear."

He Fengyu cried bitterly aggrieved, regarded Li Guolou as a confidant, and the kidnapping case had nothing to do with him, but made him the target of public criticism, the outside world said that he drank the blood of soldiers, bullied the Sun brothers, embezzled the military salary of the Lincheng garrison, and even criticized him in the newspaper, and the Yanzhou army was wronged through the ages, and He Fengyu used the money earned to subsidize his officers, which made the Yanzhou army feel stable, and it was logical that the salary and military supplies were deducted by the political envoy Ning Deke, He Fengyu said that the darkness of Shandong officialdom was exhausted, and the ** of officialdom was said

Li Guolou is listening to He Fengyu speak, but he can't do anything, some systems he can't change, the perfect system will always be exploited by people, this is human nature, He Fengyu can't be innocent, where to go to the army to do business and make money, isn't it smuggling and drug trafficking, Shandong people are bold, how can they be willing to be poor and profiteering, there must be Shandong people in the industry, Li Guolou is in a loss, Shandong people have such good physical conditions, but they are not soldiers, the new military army will never recruit soldiers in Shandong, the descendants of Liangshan heroes, adhering to the blood and impulse of their ancestors, Shandong people do not pay attention to national law and military discipline

Thinking of the gang of miscellaneous things in the Spear Society, Li Guolou couldn't kill all the people in the Spear Society, so Righteous Fist became a monopoly and the red light would be unrestrained, but he wanted to shield and connive at the lawless beasts of the Lance Club

Why is Shandong still so messy, Li Guolou and He Fengyu accompanied him, a few perfunctory words in their mouths, they didn't treat He Fengyu as a friend, everyone used each other, He Fengyu was a villain, and he was a villain who was not saved, Yanzhou Army raised Kou and made jokes, and now he thought of what he did to suppress the bandits

Li Guolou put aside his heavy words and said with a smile: "Why did Lao He, the political envoy Ning De, say yesterday, 'I'm not the donkey who is stumbling', you dare to laugh at who he is laughing at?"

He Fengyu laughed and said: "Xiao Li, you don't know yet, this is a big new thing in Lincheng, Bai Langning eats live donkey meat, the hemp pole of the spear club personally handles the knife, I didn't expect that after the donkey was injured, he broke free of the rope and kicked over several people at the banquet, and the hemp pole was the most seriously injured and returned to his hometown to recuperate, I heard that Bai Langning's waist was also hit hard, didn't he tell you?"

Li Guolou touched his nose and laughed wildly: "He didn't tell me, I thought he was injured in the war, and praised him a few words."

"Hahahaha" The surrounding soldiers laughed together, and the cycle of heavenly principles was evil, and Li Yun laughed so much that he leaned forward and back, and almost fell off his horse, causing laughter in the hall

He Fengyu asked softly: "Xiao Li, can your people really fight?"

Li Guolou glanced at the group of guards behind He Fengyu and said: "Lao He can't win a fight with your Goshha now, but on the battlefield, you fight against me, your two hundred people are not enough, I drink a pot."

He Fengyu was not convinced, so he could only nod and said: "Well, there may be someone to help, Zhu Honglan likes the little white-faced military and civilian fish and water."

Li Guolou said angrily: "Lao He, you are not authentic, Zhu Honglan is like a jade, see how I capture Weishan Island, you will be convinced."

"It is our joint attack on Weishan Island, the Yanzhou army sails like a horse, your sergeant has thin arms and legs, and there are problems with oars," He Fengyu deliberately shouted loudly, so that the guards of the Yanzhou army vibrated on the horse, and whipped their might

Li Guolou shot back: "Lao He will fight out the thin arms and legs, and soon they will grow strong muscles, you don't want to be strong, let's compete to see who will plant the battle flag on Weishan Island first."

"It's like comparing who loses, holding the military flag for the other party for a day," He Fengyu waved his hand, and the mountains and rivers were magnificent

Li Guolou nodded and said, "Great, Lao He, I will make you the flag officer of the new armed army."

He Fengyu laughed and said: "Xiao Li's official rank is only in the Taiping Army, and our army is called a flag officer."

Li Guolou said: "It's a little better, the new era needs to inject new terms, you are outdated."

The two escort teams totaled more than 400 people, and the spirit of the horses went straight to Weishan County, and the group passed through Shimen Village, and the middle of the Shimen Bridge was connected with wooden planks, so that they could pass, and everyone led the horses through the Shimen Bridge, and there were bullet marks on the stone bridge, and there was a bloody battle here

After He Fengyu passed through Shenfeng Ridge, he became silent, and a guest army set up an ambush in Shenfeng Ridge and won a big victory, which was convincing, and sighed that Shenfeng Ridge was magical, and Li Guolou skillfully set up an ambush on the battlefield

The battle of Weishan Island must be won this time, this is the last chance to prove yourself, otherwise after retiring, you can only waste the years, regret how many things can not come again, He Fengyu climbed high to look at it, forgot Shenfeng Ridge, looked forward to Weishan Lake, and there was hope in life
