This is the messenger from Jinan Chengge Station.
A carrier pigeon from Linqing arrived in Jinan City with a letter, and the imperial court reassembled 300,000 troops, including 30,000 elite troops from the Nine Borders and 40,000 Miao soldiers from southern Xinjiang.
The vanguard of 10,000 cavalrymen set out yesterday and will arrive at the city of Jinan soon.
Hundreds of thousands of Lian troops were unable to capture Jinan, which gave the imperial court time and space to reorganize its troops.
The gradually warming weather caused the canal to thaw, and troops and supplies traveling from south to north accelerated their gathering in Linqing City.
This news is long-awaited good news for the people of Jinan City.
On the first day of the Dingmao year, the imperial court finally sent troops.
Countless people knelt on the ground, facing north and shouting "Long live the emperor!"
Every household was in high spirits and took out all the firecrackers from the bottom of their boxes to set them off.
For a moment, the city was ten times more lively than during the Chinese New Year.
Many shops that were originally closed also started selling goods.
Even the price of food has come down a lot.
Because the merchants all understood that if they did not sell their inventory now, they would not be able to sell it at a good price after the siege of the city was lifted.
The general's mansion in the city also became a sea of joy.
The White Lotus Army was defeated again and again, and its fighting spirit had been lost. Its defeat was inevitable.
The General's Mansion had long received intelligence that many masters of the White Lotus Army had mysteriously disappeared and were suspected of having escaped from the White Lotus Army.
This is not surprising. Those martial arts masters are the kind of people who will not do anything without profit. Seeing that the White Lotus Rebellion is gradually becoming hopeless, they are already lucky if they can avoid being stabbed.
More importantly, they obtained more accurate military intelligence.
The imperial vanguard army was invincible and had already conquered two prefectures and counties in a single blow.
In short, the situation is very good, White Lotus Pill.
The General's Mansion even held a banquet to celebrate the success, inviting the leaders of all the forces involved in the city's defense to attend the meeting.
The occasion was not grand, and the banquet was not luxurious, but it was quite lively, with people drinking and chatting.
The chief cremator was also invited.
Although the crematorium had a low status, it was still a branch. Although small, it had all the necessary facilities. The general's office sent a military order to the crematorium, and the crematorium would immediately allocate a few positions to the crematorium managers.
Well, this is a good deal for Li Tie and Xu Changshou.
What does it mean to rather be the head of a chicken than the tail of an ox?
That's what I mean.
No matter how incompetent I am or how shabby my office is, I am still a leader; no matter how cruel you are or how powerful your department is, you are just a small figure and you are not even qualified to sit at the table during meetings or dinners. I just want to ask you if you are angry.
But Li Tie and Xu Changshou felt guilty.
Those who are qualified to attend the banquet at the General's Mansion are all big shots. The two little chickens trying to get in are like Granny Liu who is about to enter the Grand View Garden, not knowing whether to go in with her left foot or her right foot first.
But I don’t want to miss the opportunity to have a good meal.
How to do?
After discussing it, the two of them grabbed Qin He, who was drooling while sleeping.
The first disciple of the Green Ox Immortal, his name spread throughout the three armies.
You take the lead, so that we two brothers can be braver.
Qin He had just spent the entire night eating and drinking in the Lian Army camp. He had no interest in anything and just fell down to continue sleeping.
Li Tie and Xu Changshou quit.
A full man does not know the hunger of a hungry man, and a hungry man does not know the emptiness of a full man.
You've eaten a lot and your belly is full, but we two haven't had any oily food for a long time, so we picked up Qin He and rushed to the general's mansion.
When we arrived at the general's mansion, the gatekeeper was a small flag officer of the Feiyu Guard and also a disciple of the Qingniu Sect.
When they saw it was Qin He, they were surprised that he let him in without even looking at the invitation.
As the first disciple of the Green Ox Immortal, anyone who has received benefits from the Green Ox Immortal has to give him some face.
The three of them sat down at the table smoothly as if they had entered a monastery. It was quite lively inside, but most of the people there were military officers and colonels, and they didn't recognize them very well. So they walked around and found the people from the crematorium in a corner.
There is a crematorium and there are managers of crematoriums in the other two cities.
Wei Wu and Wei Yuanji were also there, as well as a great monk and a Taoist priest.
The big monk was very eye-catching and it was hard not to notice him. Others shared a bench with two people, but he occupied one side and still thought it was too small.
It was Wu De and Fahai.
Xu Changshou and Li Tie hurried over to pay their respects to Wei Wu and Wei Yuanji. Since they were the ones in charge, they had to give them some face.
Qin He stretched himself and grinned, greeting them: "Hello, Mr. Wei!"
Wei Yuanji laughed and laughed.
Wei Wu turned his head away and ignored Qin He.
He was in a bad mood today because the two people he was unhappy with showed up.
One is a big monk, my old enemy. When I see him, everything I eat tastes like cow dung.
One is Qin He. We have never had a direct conflict, but for some reason I really want to punch him in the face, especially his smile, which is so damn annoying.
Wei Wu looked indifferent, but the big monk became excited.
More than ten days ago, during the fierce battle on the city wall, it was this Green Ox Immortal's first disciple who slapped him on the forehead, which gave him an epiphany and made him realize the "Duling Sutra".
Boy, that's awesome.
The "Duling Sutra", which may have been passed down in Jinguang Temple for countless generations, was "suddenly realized" for no reason. The monk couldn't understand it no matter how hard he thought.
It's too bizarre and ridiculous, unbelievable.
After thinking about it, the monk felt that it might be related to Qin He's slap.
Because Qin He's slap was like opening up his eight extraordinary meridians, and the effect was immediate.
I can’t understand it, but this is the fact.
As soon as the big monk stood up, Li Tie and Xu Changshou quickly pulled Qin He back to hide.
They were enemies who had fought in a restaurant before. Then, for some reason, he suddenly became shameless with the Taoist priest next to him, and the fight ended without any result.
However, the big monk didn't look like he was seeking revenge at all. Instead, he ran up to Qin He with a friendly expression, rubbing his hands and pointing at his forehead. He said expectantly, "Well, pat me again~"
