"Stop! Stop it all! An angry shout, although it seemed a little weak, but it was loud, but this sound shocked everyone.

The person who spoke was Yu Youshan. Qin Li's last kick took him a long time to catch his breath, he struggled to get up from the ground, stretched his limbs, gritted his teeth to endure the pain around him, and stood in front of the soldiers.

At this time, he turned his back to Qin Li, obviously because he didn't want to fight with Qin Li anymore.

"What are you doing here? What Lord Qin said just now is very clear, if we defeat him alone, he will leave. But everyone saw it just now, and Lord Qin threw me three big heels when he raised his hand. Nothing else, I, Yu Youshan, am convinced, and today I have to obey Lord Qin's dispatch.

If you are not convinced, even if you go head-to-head with Lord Qin, you will not be ashamed to bully more and lose less? What a shame! Throw us the people of Yangzhou Thousand Households! ”

It is said that Yu Youshan is a hundred households, and it should be the sixth grade, but he called it an ironing post by Lord Qin, and it seems that he is completely convinced.

In terms of ability, Yu Youshan is outstanding among these soldiers. He is convinced, who else dares to shout again? All of a sudden, everyone fell silent.

Yu Youshan said angrily, "What are you still doing stupidly? Don't hurry back to the team and wait for Lord Qin's selection. Hum! If you miss Lord Qin's major event today, I won't finish with you. ”

Boom! He spoke much more effectively than Qin Li. All the soldiers almost did not hesitate at all, and they all stepped back and stood in their original positions, obediently waiting for Qin Li to choose.

The corners of Yu Youshan's mouth showed a hint of satisfaction, and then he turned around, straightened his chest and hugged Qin Li with a big grin, and said loudly, "Lord Qin, please choose someone!" ”

This guy is really a little bold, and he never mentioned that he was knocked down by Qin Li three times just now, as if he didn't care about it at all.

Yu Youshan's actions made Qin Li stunned. However, Qin Li suddenly had a little admiration for Yu Youshan.

Talents like Yu Youshan are real men. Defeat is defeat, there is nothing to be ashamed of, the husband stands between heaven and earth, he should be able to afford to put it down.

Qin Li generously hugged his fist at Yu Youshan, smiled gratefully, and then took a big stride into the crowd to select the soldiers. Yu Youshan grabbed him and said with a bitter face, "Lord Qin, you can't leave me!" I'd love to do great things with you. I'm inactive these days, and my hands and feet are itching! ”

I'll it! When he said this, he almost made Qin Li burst out laughing. This Yu Youshan is still itching his hands and feet. Didn't you just have a good time?

However, in the face of his sincere gaze, Qin Li nodded slightly and smiled, "Don't worry, Lord Yu, you can't run." I'm counting on you to give me a lot of energy! ”

Yu Youshan laughed when he heard it, and his laughter was very hearty.

Next, according to his own observations, Qin Li quickly selected three hundred elite soldiers with the help of Yu Youshan.

These soldiers are all born with tiger backs, strong bodies, and high spirits. At this time, they were already full of respect for Qin Li, and they no longer sneered at Qin Li at the beginning. Dismissive.

The soldiers brought swords and some of them armed with firearms, and each of them led a horse from the stable, and came out of the school yard with great dignity.

Jiang Yao sat in the official sedan chair and hurriedly followed. He admired Qin Li more and more. Sighed secretly, "The hero is a boy!" It didn't take long for this Qin Li to become a pillar of my Ming Dynasty, which is really terrifying. ”

Jiang Yao, as a civilian official, had no combat experience, and he knew that even if he accompanied Qin Li to Jiangdu County, he would also be a burden to Qin Li. But as the prefect of Yangzhou, he still has to vigorously support Qin Li's action. He sent a swift to the treasury to fetch three hundred taels of silver. Give it to each soldier according to his head. But don't underestimate this one or two pieces of silver per person, it was not a small amount at the time. That's almost half a year's worth of living for a family of three.

Eat people with a short mouth, and take people softly. The soldiers rejoiced when they got the money. even obeyed Qin Li's command wholeheartedly.

Jiang Yao made such a bold move, Qin Li was extremely moved. Just about to say something, Jiang Yao smiled and said, "Xiao Li doesn't need to say anything, although I can't do anything big, but as a prefect, I still have a bit of authority." In the future, I will be your backing in Yangzhou, and I will support you no matter what you do. ”

What is a confidant? That's the confidant. At this time, Jiang Yao and Qin Li seemed to have become a pair of friends who forgot their life and death.

Qin Li would never have thought that it was precisely because he and Jiang Yao had this life-and-death friendship that he survived in a catastrophe during the Jiajing period. Of course, it was precisely because of their friendship that Jiang Yao was promoted all the way to become a member of the imperial court by relying on Qin Li in the future, with a high and powerful position. That's all for later, so I won't talk about it here.

Qin Li and Jiang Yao said goodbye and rode a tall horse to lead the way in front, while three hundred cavalry quietly galloped out of the Thousand Households and galloped all the way.

Time is running out, and you have to hurry up on the road.

Three hundred and one horses rolled up the smoke and dust in the sky, and they arrived at the canal in Jiangdu County in less than two hours.

At this time, it was already the time to hold the lamp, and people were tired.

It is said that Qin Li has become a little fairy in Li Bo's heart, and there is nothing that Li Bo can't do if he wants to come to Qin Li. Li Bo expected that Qin Li would definitely be able to borrow soldiers and horses, so he was fully prepared for logistics. As soon as Qin Li's men arrived, Li Bo asked more than a dozen servants to bring food.

There were no horses for tonight's operation, so the officers kept three hundred horses in a secluded place.

After the soldiers had eaten enough, Li Bo and Huang Tiancai hurriedly came to report, "Lord Qin, more than a dozen boats of smuggled salt have not been transported away. But seeing the crowds on the ship from afar, it seems that they will be transported away tonight. ”

Qin Li nodded slightly, this was something he had already thought of. Otherwise, I wouldn't be in such a hurry to borrow soldiers.

In the dark night, Qin Li was full of energy and was very excited. Although it wasn't a big fight. But after all, he personally commanded three hundred people, and he was quite proud of him, a later generation traveler.

It is less than five miles from the reeds where the salt is hidden. Qin Li first went to the reeds to watch around, familiarized himself with the terrain, and pondered silently for a moment before having a plan.

Qin Li's face tightened, and he said to the soldiers with an indifferent expression, "First announce an order, everything will be under my command tonight, and anyone who does not listen to the command will be immediately killed." ”

Although the voice was not loud, it was sonorous and powerful, and it was very cold, and the soldiers couldn't help but feel chills in their hearts when they heard it.

They remembered that Qin Li beat Yu Youshan in an instant, and they suddenly became afraid of Qin Li. Under the leadership of Yu Youshan, they all shouted in unison, "We are willing to listen to Lord Qin's orders, but Lord Qin is the first to follow!" ”

Qin Li nodded with satisfaction.

After that, Qin Li gave some orders to Huang Tian and Li Bo, and asked the two of them to lead twenty messengers to find twenty boats on the canal and block the exit of the reeds.

It was not difficult to find twenty boats on the canal, and it was also feasible to block the exit with boats. Because the exit of the reeds is not very wide, twenty boats lined up enough to block the exit. But Qin Li ordered the twenty boats to be connected by iron cables, and a wooden plank was built in the middle, which made the two of them very afraid to agree.

Huang Tian is a descendant of Huang Zhong, and he has studied the Battle of Chibi during the Three Kingdoms period very much, so he was the first to say, "Brother Qin Li, this iron cable is not appropriate, right?" In case the White Lotus Sect uses rockets to shoot boats, it will burn a large area, and there will be no escape! (To be continued.) )
