Time Travel to 1859: The Iron-Blooded Soldier King

Liu Ye's letter was placed on Senggelinqin's desk, requesting that He Qimou, the lieutenant colonel under Senggelinqin, be transferred to Baoding Prefecture to serve as deputy general.

Senggelinqin showed a bitter smile. This little bastard has been completely dependent on him. He has even run to Baoding Prefecture, but was only summoned once by the emperor and was directly assigned to his command. Without any backing, this guy feels uneasy when doing things.

Now, someone actually specifically asked for He Qimou, a rising star whom he highly valued. So, he was going to let him go with just a word? He was flattered! However, he couldn't refuse. This kid went to Baoding Town alone. Although he brought a few people with him, they probably weren't enough. If he wanted to realize his ambitions, he had to deal with all the several camps in Baoding Town in the shortest possible time.

Senggelinqin was still worried after all, so he called He Qimou, his most valued friend regardless of age difference, over and said, "Qimou."

He Qimou quickly replied, "Your Majesty, what are your instructions?"

"Qi Mou, Liu Ye has now gone to Baoding to take up his post. Where are the useful people under his command? He's been promoted too quickly. After all, his foundation is too weak. It's impossible to get started quickly. Look, he came to poach me, haha."

Senggelinqin smiled.

He Qimou today is different from the one he was a few months ago. A few months ago, He Qimou was arrogant and looked down on Liu Ye from the bottom of his heart, thinking that Liu Ye was just lucky. Even after losing in the martial arts performance, he was not completely convinced. It was not until Liu Ye came to Beijing and used his eloquence to send away the murderous four countries that He Qimou was really convinced. Even the monk king could not do such a thing. He can be compared with Zhuge Liang who entered Wu alone!

Originally, the monk king wanted to transfer himself to the firearms camp as a lieutenant and become Lai Ye's deputy. Unexpectedly, before he had time to make arrangements, Liu Ye got into big trouble. If it were not for the emperor's grace and the protection of the two princes, this guy would probably still be in jail.

Today, when He Qimou heard the monk king say that Liu Ye had written to him, wanting to poach the prince's girlfriend, the first thing he thought of was that he had to leave Tianjin and rush to Baoding.

After all, although Senggelinqin had many deputy generals and even more lieutenants under his command, Liu Ye was not familiar with many of them, and even fewer of them were favored by Liu Ye. He Qimou was one of them.

"Your Majesty, do you mean to let me go to Baoding Town?"

He Qimou asked.

Senggelinqin nodded and replied, "Indeed, there aren't many of my lieutenant generals who can catch Liu Ye's eye. You are one of them, and you have dealt with him several times before. Naturally, you are our target."

He Qimou was not polite and replied, "Don't worry, Your Majesty. General Liu is indeed a rare genius. I, He Qimou, admire him very much. When we get to Baoding, I will definitely help him lead the town well!"

"Hahaha……"

Senggelinqin laughed and said, "You, weren't you still upset with him because of me some time ago?"

He Qimou's face flushed, and he replied awkwardly, "Your Highness, please stop exposing my past. Well, people always have to go through a process of familiarity, right? General Liu made a stunning debut in the capital this time. I think even if Zhuge Liang were reincarnated, he wouldn't be as good as him. He's a man of both civil and military talents."

Senggelinqin nodded. Even he himself felt the same way. This Liu Ye was a monster. Sometimes, he wanted to use his knife to dig out this kid's heart to see how it was made.

Senggelinqin said, "Qimou, you and Liu Ye are both rising talents that I value most. When you arrive in Baoding Prefecture, you must learn more from Liu Ye. No one knows how much knowledge he has hidden. I always feel that there is more that we have not seen. So, you must pay attention and don't let him pull you further and further away. If you do, it will be embarrassing."

He Qimou nodded in agreement.

Senggelinqin continued, "Don't worry about me. Even if you leave, Busheng Kezhai will still be with me. With him helping me, there will be no problem. Today, you should immediately set off for Baoding Prefecture!"

He Qimou was quick and decisive. He kowtowed to Senggelinqin, stood up, and went down to prepare.

On the highway from the capital to Baoding, Guo Ye and his group were riding their war horses and galloping towards Baoding Prefecture.

Gao Qi asked loudly, "General, you said you wrote to the monk king to ask for someone to come here. Who are you looking for?"

Liu Ye laughed and said, "Who? Of course, our old acquaintances?"

Old acquaintance?

Gao Qi patted his head and shouted, "General, are you planning to poach the old commander, Brother Zhengqing?"

"fart!"

Liu Ye laughed and scolded, "You son of a bitch, use your brain! Big Brother Zhengqing is now the commander-in-chief, responsible for guarding the Dagukou Pass. Not to mention that it is a key location and cannot be moved lightly, even in terms of rank, do you think it's possible? From commander-in-chief to deputy general of Baoding Town? Are you crazy? If you really do that, won't Big Brother Zhengqing scold you to death?"

Gao Qi chuckled foolishly. It was indeed true. He had forgotten about it. Blocking someone's career is like killing his parents.

"Then, General, who exactly are you requesting to transfer?"

"It's He Qimou, the captain of the personal guard under the Monk King. This guy is not shy and is quite capable in fighting. I want him here."

Liu Ye continued to answer.

"Forehead……"

Gao Qi slapped his head and said bitterly, "Sir, why do you want a defeated general of ours to be our immediate superior? It will make us all look bad..."

Liu Yebo angrily said, "Bullshit! What do you mean by defeated? How did you manage to defeat him in the first place? Four or five of you ganged up on him! In a one-on-one fight, which one of you could be his opponent? And now you have the nerve to call him a defeated opponent?"

Gao Qi's face turned red. This was true. In that battle, He Qimou had become a lone commander. One hundred good brothers were all knocked down, and he was the only one left. But he still fought hard and refused to retreat. In the end, four or five of his brothers surrounded and beat him up before they knocked him down. It was really miserable. Even so, Gao E was kicked hard by He Qimou's big foot.

Liu Ye continued, "Your rank is still too low. Even if I promote you, you can only be a battalion commander or a garrison commander at best. This is already a super promotion. The General's Office also has deputy generals and lieutenant generals. How can we do it without our own people? Now that He Qimou has been transferred from Tianjin, he will be a deputy general when he arrives. You guys control the lower levels, and he and I will control the upper levels. Only then can we transform Baoding Town in the shortest possible time!"
