When the flames of the Blood Lotus Sect's heavy camp rose into the sky, Feng Shi panicked. He didn't know what was going on, but he knew he couldn't stay here, and he wisely chose to run away.

More than 20,000 remnants of the Blood Lotus Sect fled in the direction of Xinzhou in a hurry like a lost dog, Xu Shijun did not intend to let them go, the Tongzhou army poured out, and even the ironclad soldiers took off their iron armor and chased their butts to kill in the direction of Yingzhou.

"It's a pity that I ran away from Feng Shi, even if that old boy ran fast." After a whole night of pursuit, all the troops returned, Xu Shijun said regretfully.

"It's not important, the important thing is that we completely control Luofeng Valley, and Yingzhou will not defend us in the future." Qin Forget didn't feel pity at all, on the contrary, he was very excited.

"It's still a powerful general, we only lost more than 700 people this time, and killed 16,000 Blood Lotus Sect elites, and even captured more than 10,000 people." Speaking of this, Xu Shijun's face was full of admiration.

"Okay, if you can take Luofeng Valley, your Tongzhou army should be the first to take the lead. I will report to the imperial court to give one of you a promotion, and the other rewards will be given to you by the military justice department. By the way, the name Tongzhou Army is not suitable for you, it is difficult to distinguish it from the one under Zhao Qian, it is time to give you a serious military name, you are still the first army to be qualified for such an honor. ”

Xu Shijun was overjoyed, he didn't care much about promotion and reward, the key was that they would be the first army with their own name, such an honor simply made Xu Shijun ecstatic. In this way, their newly attached army will reach its peak status in the Akagi Army, and anyone they see will be able to nostrils to the sky.

"General, you also know that these of us are all former border troops, and we have deep feelings for the border army. Can we use the names of the former border troops? After calming down a little, Xu Shijun asked tentatively.

"Yes, it's good that the brothers agree." Qin forgot to agree without even thinking about it.

"Most of us are from the border army Blue Wolf Army, just call it the Blue Wolf Army, do you think it's okay?" Xu Shijun was surprised to see Qin Forget so happy, and continued to ask.

"Okay, let's call it the Blue Wolf Army. By the way, aren't you talking about cavalry? I have already sent a message to Dong Zhuang and asked him to send 2,000 cavalry under your command, Lao Xu, so that your blue wolf army will be the most powerful army. Qin Forget gave Xu Shijun another surprise.

Xu Shijun was overjoyed, but he didn't expect Qin Forget to give him another big surprise, "Thank you, general, if there are two thousand cavalry, no matter how many people come from the Blood Lotus Sect, I have the confidence to beat them back." ”

"That's fine, my request to you is to guard the new state for me. When necessary, he was able to go south in one fell swoop and completely pacified the king of Yingzhou. ”

"The subordinates should do their best, and then die." Xu Shijun said with a solemn promise on his face.

In the secret room of the Chicheng County Ya, Dong Zhuang, Chen Wan'er, and Jin Cheng circulated the secret letters sent by Jin Wu back and forth, and they were confused.

"Millennial ginseng, Shou Wu, iceberg snow lotus, and this Raush Zi Dragon Whisker, Jin Wu, what's going on? What are you looking for these things for? After reading the secret letter sent by Jin Wu, Dong Zhuang asked strangely.

"If you want to find such a precious medicinal material, is there something wrong with the general?" Chen Wan'er asked in a panic with an anxious face.

Jin Cheng didn't speak, and he was also worried.

"Nothing happened to the general, but the general met the senior of the drug king on the way to Xinzhou, and he said that with the general's current physical condition,

It's only a year left. He has a way to cure the general, but these few herbs are crucial. Jin Wu said bluntly.

"What? A year? After Jin Wu said this, Chen Wan'er stood up suddenly, her little face was pale, and her body was also staggering and unstable.

"Jin Wu, what the hell is going on? Make it clear to Lao Tzu! Jin Cheng was in a hurry, strode up to Jin Wu, pulled the clothes on his chest and asked sharply.

"Lord Jin, don't be impatient, listen to Jin Wu finish speaking." Dong Zhuang knew that this matter was too big, and his face was extremely heavy.

After being let go by Jin Cheng, Jin Wu took a breath and told the three of them the truth about the encounter with the Poison King.

"Whether this matter is true or not, it must be kept secret first. Jin Wu, who else knows about this? After listening to Jin Wu's narration, Dong Zhuang calmed down as quickly as possible.

"In addition to the three of you, it is me, Duan Jiu, the Xue family brothers and sisters, the Iron Sword Eighteen Guards, and the Poison King's master and apprentice. Even Lord Yang didn't know, and the general was afraid that Lord Yang would be distracted, so he didn't tell him the truth, but just said that he had to rush back after a year. Jin Wu recalled the situation of that day and said affirmatively.

"There are a lot of people, but fortunately, they can all be trusted." Dong Zhuang nodded, "Then the rest of our business is to go all out to find these medicinal herbs, Lord Dong, Lord Chen, you can help a lot in this regard." ”

Jin Cheng nodded, indicating understanding.

Chen Wan'er still looked depressed, crying secretly, and didn't listen to Dong Zhuang's words at all.

Dong Zhuang sighed secretly, he knew how deep Chen Wan'er was for Qin Wang, and at this time, he was sure that the six gods had no master.

"Lord Chen, don't worry about it first, no matter what, what the poison king said may not be true. Let's do this just in case, after all, when it comes to generals, I'd rather believe it. Dong Zhuang comforted in a low voice.

Hearing this, Chen Wan'er stabilized her mind a little, and she quickly wiped her tears, "Okay, my merchant team will do their best to search." ”

"There is also Mingyue Hall, and their manpower will also be scattered. In addition, let Jiang Dongchen contact the Li family, the Li family has close ties with the people of Liaodong, and maybe there will be something to gain. Kaneshiro added.

"Okay guys, this matter is the most important thing for my Akagi Army in the next year. Everything has to make way for it. Dong Zhuang clapped his head.

With Dong Zhuang's order, all parties acted quickly.

As soon as Jiang Dongchen received Dong Zhuang's strict order, he found Li Zhen as quickly as possible.

Although Dong Zhuang didn't tell him why he wanted to find those few flavored medicines, he couldn't help but ignore that sentence at all costs.

During this time, Jiang Dongchen did a very good job, he had already done the private salt business to the entire Dayan, and every month he would earn five or six hundred thousand taels of silver for Chicheng, which seemed to have become Chicheng's biggest source of wealth. It is precisely for this reason that the influence of Akagi's business group in Dayan is also increasing.

Now his main focus is on developing the Qi market, and of course he has encountered a lot of trouble. Qi is a very large country, and the demand for salt is also very strong. However, the illegal salt market of Qi was firmly controlled by the illegal salt dealers in his country, so he had nowhere to start for a while.

"Hey, thousand-year-old ginseng, Shouwu, iceberg snow lotus, and dragon beard, virtuous nephew, which of your big people in Chicheng has been injured and needs such precious medicinal materials? It can't be your General Qin, right? Li Zhen looked at the medicinal herbs on the list and raised his eyebrows

Asked with a pick.

"Shibo doesn't need to guess, our General Qin is fine. A few days ago, news came that he personally led 10,000 blue wolf troops to drive the Blood Lotus Sect out of Xinzhou. The Blood Lotus Sect had a full 50,000 people, killed and captured, that is, the main general Feng Shi fled back to Yingzhou with hundreds of remnants. Our generals are fierce and fierce, what can be the problem? Regarding Li Zhen's obvious temptation, Jiang Dongchen casually sent it back.

"I really underestimated General Qin, and he was able to defeat the Blood Lotus Sect many times without being able to defeat the imperial court." Li Zhen said with emotion.

"What? Regret doing the right thing with our general? Jiang Dongchen sneered slightly.

"There is nothing to regret or not regret, if you want to blame yourself, you have eyes and don't know gold and jade." Li Zhen smiled bitterly and shook his head, "These medicinal materials are too precious, and I am still a little sure of the thousand-year-old ginseng, but the others are really bottomless." I'll let my men search for it, but I want to know what good you will give me if I can find it for you? ”

"What benefits do you want?" Knowing that Li Zhenhui opened his mouth, Jiang Dongchen was mentally prepared.

"If I can find you this thousand-year-old ginseng, I want the exclusive right to sell the medicinal herbs you use in Akagi. Whether it's the military or the civilian, you can only buy mine. Li Zhen said.

"Okay, I'll be able to promise you that right now. But we have to negotiate the price, and you have to ensure the quality, otherwise there is no need to negotiate. Jiang Dongchen agreed.

"It's nature." Li Zhen nodded, "The second condition, I heard that you are embarking on opening the private salt market of Qi State, I want to join forces with you and divide it fifty-fifty." ”

"Impossible?" Jiang Dongchen refused without thinking about it, "What are you doing as a medicinal herb maker and meddling in the private salt business?" ”

"Don't be in a hurry to refuse, I've heard that you've encountered a lot of resistance, maybe I can help you. I haven't done a private salt business, but the medicinal herb business in Qi is very big. I have a lot of contacts over there, so I might be able to use them. Li Zhen said with confidence.

Jiang Dongchen couldn't help but ponder, it took him several months to open the Qi market, but because he had no connections, there had been no progress, and cooperating with Li Zhen might be a solution.

"If you want a piece of the pie, you always want me to see your strength. In this way, I have an opponent in Qi Country who has been blocking my path, if you can get rid of him, I can consider it. After thinking about it again, Jiang Dongchen decided to give it a try.

"You say." Hearing that there was a play, Li Zhen asked eagerly.

"Xuzhou Zhu family."

"You're welcome." Li Zhen sneered, "This Zhu family is a well-known local tyrant in Xuzhou, and there are more than a dozen brothers in their family, Zhu Baoyu, Zhu Baozhu, Zhu Fenglong, and Zhu Fengwei are known as the four masters of the Zhu family, and they are all very capable, among which Zhu Baoyu and Zhu Fenglong are even in the army, and their subordinates are in charge of an army, and it is difficult to move them." ”

"So Shibo doesn't plan to partner with me?" Jiang Dongchen sneered, feeling a little disappointed.

"But it's not that it can't be solved, I'll give you a message in a month." Li Zhen's face was straight, and he said confidently.

"Okay, if you can get the Zhu family, no matter whether you can find thousand-year-old ginseng or not, I will share 20% of the private salt business of Qi Kingdom. After finding it, how about dividing it with you? Hearing that Li Zhen was sure to deal with the Zhu family, Jiang Dongchen was overjoyed, and planned to cooperate with Li Zhen on the spot.

"Okay, let's make a decision!" Li Zhen was also happy and happily reached the deal.
