Chapter 1112: A Helpless Move
After walking to the door of the room where Qin Meiniang lived, Lord Liu immediately reached out and began to knock on the door, shouting:
"The Emperor!"
After Qin Meiniang, who was sitting in the room, heard Lord Liu's shouting, she also got up and walked quickly to the door of the room, and stretched out her hand to open the door.
After opening the door, Qin Meiniang saw Lord Liu standing at the door of the room, and behind Lord Liu were also standing several generals wearing generals' armor.
Qin Meiniang couldn't help but be stunned, and asked Lord Liu:
"It's great that these generals have arrived!"
Several soldiers and generals standing behind Lord Liu saw Qin Meiniang wearing the costume of a maidservant, and they didn't recognize her for a while, but after hearing her voice and looking at her appearance.
These soldiers and generals also clasped their fists and saluted Qin Meiniang in unison:
"The last general will see the emperor."
Qin Meiniang couldn't help but say happily:
"Generals don't have to be polite, just plain."
Immediately, Lord Liu also walked into the room where Qin Meiniang lived with a few soldiers and generals standing at the door of the room.
Qin Meiniang turned around and walked to the wooden table on the side, and after sitting down, she also said excitedly:
"Now, all the generals have led their soldiers and horses to Lin'an County, and I will be safe."
Lord Liu also hugged his fists and chimed in:
"That's what the emperor said!"
Qin Meiniang also looked at the several soldiers and generals standing on the side and asked:
"How many soldiers and horses did each of you bring this time? I need to muster my troops now. ”
After listening to Qin Meiniang's question, the soldiers and generals standing on this side also replied to Qin Meiniang with their fists in turn:
"Emperor Qi, the last general will lead a thousand soldiers and horses this time."
"The last general led fifteen hundred soldiers and horses."
"The last general also led a thousand soldiers and horses."
After Qin Meiniang listened to the reports of these soldiers and generals about the number of soldiers and horses they led this time, she also nodded slowly.
After careful calculations in her heart, Qin Meiniang also knew that there were a total of 3,500 soldiers and horses leading to Lin'an County.
Qin Meiniang choked up, and then said:
"This is a total of 3,500 soldiers and horses, although it is not absolute strength, but at this juncture, it is also very important for me."
Lord Liu also rushed to Qin Meiniang, and then hugged his fists and said:
"Don't worry about the first emperor, the subordinates of the lower officials can also select five hundred guards with better skills for you, and they can help the first emperor when the time comes."
Qin Meiniang was stunned for a moment, and said with a serious face:
"Well, that is to say, the current strength I have accumulated is only 4,000, to be honest, although there is a gap between such a small number of troops and the emperor's tens of thousands of troops, I still decided to gamble."
Lord Liu clenched his fists and said:
"First Emperor, these generals are all your former right-hand men, but they all follow you to fight the world, and they once repelled the soldiers and horses of the Great Britain Kingdom, so even if there are only a few thousand soldiers and horses, but this power of the First Emperor really does not dare to underestimate it!"
A soldier general standing on the side also clasped his fists and said to Qin Meiniang:
"The first emperor, the lord of this county is reasonable, once, the last general and others followed you in the case of insufficient troops, but those who have defeated the soldiers and horses of the Great Britain Kingdom, this time, it must be more than enough to deal with the emperor, and the first emperor's chances of victory are great!"
Qin Meiniang also couldn't help but laugh bitterly a few times, sighed, and said:
"This time it's not as easy as you think! There was a reason why I could lead you to defeat the soldiers and horses of Great Britain with less! At that time, our Jinfeng Kingdom can also have reinforcements from Yan Country and other countries to support, this time, we all have to rely on our own forces, therefore, we can't be too light on the enemy, plus, the current emperor is also eager to put me to death, fortunately, before I came up with a tanuki to change the prince's strategy, found a servant girl to disguise into my appearance, to let the prime minister and his five thousand soldiers and horses take away, if, the identity of the servant girl is not revealed, then maybe I still have a chance to win, but, Once the identity of that servant girl is exposed and the emperor is completely angered, once he mobilizes tens of thousands of soldiers and horses to come to Lin'an County to kill us and others, then our thousands of soldiers and horses are not worth mentioning at all! Have you thought about these questions? ”
After Lord Liu and several soldiers and generals heard Qin Meiniang's words, they couldn't help but be stunned, and they all showed a very silent look.
After being silent for a moment, Lord Liu also hugged his fists and continued at Qin Meiniang:
"The emperor, if it really doesn't work, then the lower officials will continue to post notices inside and outside Lin'an County, continue to recruit troops, and continue to increase their power."
A soldier general also nodded and clenched his fists and said:
"Well, the method that the county lord said is also feasible, and we can temporarily increase our power by recruiting troops on the spot."
After Qin Meiniang pondered for a moment, she also looked helpless, and said seriously:
"Okay, there's no better way now, just do what Lord Liu said, I hope we can buy as many soldiers and horses as possible as soon as possible to improve our power, so that I can make some preparations for forcing the emperor to give way in the future."
Lord Liu clasped his fists and immediately said:
"Yes, the first emperor, the lower officials will go down to handle this matter, and they will do it immediately."
After finishing speaking, Lord Liu also turned around and walked outside the door.
Qin Meiniang also looked at the several soldiers and generals standing in this room and said:
"Generals, you now go out and mobilize all your soldiers and horses to guard the entrance gate of Lin'an County, in case the emperor sends troops and horses to Lin'an County again."
After listening to Qin Meiniang's arrangement, several soldiers and generals standing on the side also clasped their fists and said in unison:
"Yes, the last will obey."
Qin Meiniang also stood up and waved at these generals.
The soldiers and generals also turned around and walked briskly to the outside of the door.
Several soldiers and generals quickly walked out of the door of the room where Qin Meiniang lived, and then they all walked quickly to the gate of the county government.
After several soldiers and generals left the gate of the county government of Lin'an County, they immediately gave orders to the soldiers and horses under them.
Each of them dispatched all their soldiers and horses to the place at the gate of Lin'an County to garrison, and they all acted according to Qin Meiniang's arrangement, and they didn't dare to be sloppy.
After Lord Liu returned to his room, he immediately called in two of his guards, ready to arrange for them to go to the recruitment of troops immediately.
After the two guards walked into the room where Lord Liu was, they also clasped their fists and said in unison:
"See your Excellency."
Lord Liu also immediately said:
"No excuses."
One of the guards asked:
"I wonder what the so-called matter is the adult in a hurry to summon the two of his subordinates?"
Master Liu said with a serious face:
"This official summoned the two of you to come, is to let you continue to post notices inside and outside this Lin'an County, the county government has recently wanted to recruit troops and buy horses, as long as you are willing to join, this official will not be disadvantaged, all have a heavy reward, remember, this time, only recruit people who can do martial arts to join, people who don't know martial arts don't want to, and horses only buy strong ones that can run."
After listening to Lord Liu's words, the two guards also nodded, and then clenched their fists and said:
"Yes, sir."
Lord Liu urged:
"Now that you understand, let's get to work, and remember, we must recruit as many soldiers as possible as soon as possible, without delay."
The two guards clasped their fists and said in unison:
"Yes, please rest assured."
Lord Liu also nodded, stretched out his hand and urged:
"Let's go."
The two guards also turned around, and they all walked out of the door of the room where Lord Liu was, ready to do the recruitment of troops and horses explained by Lord Liu.
Because, Lord Liu has recruited troops and horses several times inside and outside Lin'an County, so he doesn't have much hope for this recruitment, after all, it's better than no way, it is estimated that it is better to recruit some soldiers and horses, and to share some pressure for Qin Meiniang.
On the one hand, several soldiers and generals also led their subordinates, and their soldiers and horses soon came to the gate of Lin'an County.
After coming to the entrance gate of Lin'an County, several soldiers and generals also ordered all their soldiers and horses to start dismounting and stationed at the entrance gate.
The gate of the city was still tightly closed and not opened.
And Qin Meiniang also left the room in the maidservant's courtyard where she lived and returned to the room in the courtyard where she lived before.
After returning to the room in the courtyard where she lived before, Qin Meiniang also quickly changed out of the maidservant clothes she was wearing.
In this room, I found a long dress that I had hidden before, and after wearing it, I instantly felt much more comfortable.
On the other side, the prime minister of Jin Fengguo, with his five thousand soldiers and horses and the maidservant girl who was disguised as Qin Meiniang, after a few days of hurrying, is also getting farther and farther away from Lin'an County, and closer and closer to Kyoto City.
An inn appeared on the side of the road.
Seeing this, the soldier general who was riding on horseback immediately shouted at his soldiers:
"There is an inn ahead, stop and rest for a while before we go."
After the soldier general finished shouting, the soldiers and horses in this line also responded:
"Yes, General."
After the group of soldiers and horses came to the gate of the inn in front of them, they all stopped and moved forward.
The soldier general also quickly dismounted, and then walked to the carriage where the prime minister of Jin Fengguo was riding.
After walking to the carriage where the prime minister of Jin Fengguo was riding, the soldier general also shouted in the carriage cart:
"Prime Minister, there is an inn here, please get off the carriage, call the emperor together, let's go eat and drink some before we hurry, after all, it is not far from Kyoto City now, we don't have to rush so much."
After listening to the shouts of this soldier general, the prime minister of Jin Fengguo, who was sitting in the carport of this carriage, also understood in his heart that this soldier general was likely to choose to attack the servant girl who was disguised as Qin Meiniang here, and wanted to kill her.
