Time Travel to 1859: The Iron-Blooded Soldier King

Before he finished speaking, He Qimou had already urged his horse to gallop over and saw Yan Chunyu at a glance!

"Haha, brother, why are you here? Where are the other brothers?"

Yan Chunyu curled his lips and shouted, "Old He, your brothers are being unreasonable. I was the one who killed this guy and chopped off his head, but they dared to steal his head from me. Hehe, what do you say we should do?"

He Qimou finally noticed something was wrong. The two sides were on the verge of a fight, and it seemed that something had gone wrong.

"Kulha, what the hell is going on?"

Kulha was already sweating coldly at this time. Damn, he really hit a wall this time. It seemed that the kid in front of him had a close relationship with the general, and they were even calling each other brothers!

"General, this, this..."

Kulha stuttered so much that he could barely speak clearly. He Qimou naturally understood what was going on and roared, "Useless thing, get out of here! You're embarrassing yourself! Go back and get thirty lashes!"

Turning around, He Qimou said with a wry smile, "Alright, brother, these guys are my direct subordinates, and they're becoming increasingly unruly. I'll discipline them later. Put them away. Why did you come to Shandong? Where's Ye Zi?"

Yan Chunyu said unhappily, "Wait a minute, the Lord will be here soon. He is no longer a mere general, but the new governor of Shandong Province, a legitimate second-rank official, a frontier official. Isn't that right? A new official should take office without bringing his brothers with him. He brought Xiao Hai, Gao Qi, and Gao E with him, and we happened to encounter the Nian bandits besieging Gaotang Prefecture. That's what happened. He was defeated by our brothers, and this guy is now the highest leader of the Nian bandits, and a big flag master!"

He Qimou was immediately overjoyed. Now that Liu Ye had come to Shandong, why would he have to spend so much effort to deal with the Nian bandits in the future?

"Have all the brothers from Baoding Town been brought here?"

Before Yan Chunyu could answer, dust flew up behind him and Liu Ye, leading a team of cavalry, had already arrived!

"Ye Zi, haha, it's not the Governor, haha, I miss you so much!"

He Qimou jumped off his warhorse and went towards Liu Ye.

Liu Ye was also very surprised. He had just entered Shandong for a short distance when he met He Qimou. It was really a coincidence.

Liu Ye quickly jumped off his horse and said with a smile, "Brother, you are making fun of me. We are brothers, do we really need this?"

He Qimou asked, "Brother, have you brought everyone from Baoding Town here?"

"no!"

Liu Ye smiled bitterly and said, "I was thinking so. The imperial court used Baoding as a crucial location, guarding the southern gate of the capital. It's not advisable to move lightly. They've been detained. Now Zuo Baogui is acting as the general..."

He Qimou couldn't help but sigh in frustration, "Alas, the Monk King's main cavalry was completely wiped out in the battle of Tongzhou. Now they have recruited new troops from Chahar and Suiyuan, and their combat effectiveness is very poor. As for Lord Sheng's Green Camp soldiers, they are even worse. These Nian bandits are mainly cavalry, coming and going like the wind, which is really a headache..."

Liu Ye asked, "Let's not talk about these things first. What about the Monk King? Where is he now?"

He Qimou immediately said, "Monk King, hey, you finally came. We just captured Dong'e County the day before yesterday. The Monk King is leading the main force of the central army and is now resting in Dong'e. What a coincidence! This time, I have to meet His Majesty, right?"

That's true. If I didn't know that the Monk King was in Dong'a, it would be fine. But now I know. Dong'a County is only thirty miles away from here. If I don't go and say hello, I'm afraid I will be picked on by the old man in the future.

Whatever.

Liu Ye shouted, "Gao E, go back to Gaotang Prefecture first and tell Lord Guo that I'm going to Dong'e County to pay a visit to the Monk King and will return to Gaotang Prefecture tomorrow!"

After saying that, Liu Ye left a few people to clean up the battlefield and rushed to Dong'a with He Qimou.

When Senggelinqin heard the news that Liu Ye had come to Shandong, his eyes were filled with joy. This was really timely relief. With Guo Ye alone, it was better than having thousands of troops. This kid had never lost a battle!

Senggelinqin saw Liu Ye and punched him hard, shouting, "Boy, you look mature. Not bad, you need to have this spirit! This time when I come to Shandong, I will hand over all command to you. Do whatever you want with me. Defeating the Nian bandits as quickly as possible!"

Liu Ye smiled bitterly and said, "Your Highness, I came to Shandong as the Governor. My biggest task is to govern Shandong well. As for the bandit suppression, you are the Imperial Commissioner. I can't interfere. After seeing you once, I will obediently roll to Jinan. After getting familiar with the situation in Jinan, I will rush to Dengzhou and Laizhou..."

Senggelinqin was taken aback and said dissatisfiedly, "Why, you're giving up on me, you really don't know how to care for your elders. Is it easy for me, at my age?"

Liu Ye smiled bitterly and said, "Your Highness, I really don't have the energy. I have to manage the people's livelihood, train the new army, build the Yantai military port, and organize the Naval Academy. There are so many tasks. I am worried about how to do all these things. Do you think I have the energy to help you suppress the bandits?"

Senggelinqin snorted coldly and shouted, "You don't have to help me, but lend me your Baoding Town. These Nian bandits are very cunning and slippery, and they're really hard to deal with..."

Liu Ye replied: "Your Highness, Baoding Town is no longer mine. I am the Governor of Shandong. The position of General of Baoding Town has been taken away by the court. I can do nothing about it..."

He Qimou, who was standing by, suddenly smiled strangely and whispered something in Senggelinqin's ear. Senggelinqin's eyes lit up and said, "Great, that's great! That's how we do it!"

Senggelinqin chuckled and said, "Liu Ye, since Baoding Town has been taken over by the imperial court, I won't make things difficult for you. However, if you want to leave Dong'e County, you must hand over some valuable goods to me..."

Liu Ye was stunned and asked, "What's the real deal?"

Senggelinqin laughed and said, "I know you've brought three or four hundred soldiers from Baoding Town with you. In other words, leave them all here to help me suppress the bandits. As for the rest, I don't care. Go wherever you want!"

Oh my god! This must have been He Qimou's idea!

Liu Ye glared at He Qimou fiercely, and He Qimou felt very proud.

Liu Ye twitched his lips and asked, "Your Highness, can you please leave me some? After all, I need to train new troops. Without manpower, how can I train them?"

"I don't care if you die! Anyway, you have to leave 300 people for me! Even their leader has to stay, that thing! That Yan Chunyu, I like him, so let him follow me for a while!"
