!--The beginning of the chapter-- At the north gate of Ninggu Pagoda, Lieutenant General Lin beside the Kirigakure kid who was waiting in full formation was reporting information to her, "Master Kirigakure, all the elite cavalry from the Linzi camp have arrived, and 90% of the Shanzi camp has arrived. ...Mengzi Camp and Xuzi Camp may be a little full..."
"I don't want to hear this, just tell me when I can leave! That's all..." Kirigakure kid raised his hand to stop Lieutenant General Lin's report.
Lieutenant General Lin, who was blushing and licking his teeth, said, "This... the fastest foreigner clock is two and a half hours later. You clearly know that this is already the fastest speed!"
"No, I can't wait! Take me to see General Hunchun. The general and I will set off first to complete the first phase of the mission... As for the person in charge of Qiqihar... I will leave full authority to you!"
"Ah!" Lao Lin was stunned when he heard this. "Leave it to me? Leave such a big task to me..." He felt a little guilty.
The Kirigakure kid suddenly smiled strangely, "Yes, of course I leave it to you. I trust you so I leave it to you... If you can ruthlessly kill someone close to you, I can only think that you have already submitted a letter of surrender!" I know about your past, but I also appreciate your courage and your ability to turn from darkness to light at the last moment. You are good! You are really good!"
Old Lin's face turned slightly red. He knew that his true identity had been grasped by this woman. Old Lin was loyal to General Hunchun, no matter what, but Old Lin was not so loyal to other forces.
In his heart, Lao Lin was neither a reformer nor a conservative among the Manchus. He was actually a fence-sitter! The hidden line in Ninggu Tower that Prince Chun Yixuan mentioned was Lao Lin.
An officer in Lao Lin's hands was the mouthpiece between him and Yizhen, and Lao Lin loyally sought the interests of General Hunchun.
The secret order issued by the imperial court years ago required Hunchun to disobey it, gradually close the border and cut off the food routes for the volunteers. This order was passed to Hunchun through Lao Lin's hand, and there were also many promises of promotion and wealth secretly.
When Lao Lin saw that the capital of the imperial court was quite large, it would be beneficial to General Hunchun, so what are you waiting for? Naturally, he secretly advised General Hunchun, you have to listen to the imperial court. After all, the two empresses, two princes, and so many powerful ministers are all One group of people, follow them and naturally get promoted, become rich, become popular and drink spicy food.
This is a very wise choice for those who sit on the fence. There is no right or wrong to judge. But as the imperial court later released Rakshasa ghosts across the border, and the young emperor made it clear that he supported the volunteers and made many secret promises, Lao Lin's heart changed.
The remaining bit of morality in his heart made him naturally hate the court's decision to let Rakshasa ghosts pass through the border. In addition, the price on the little emperor's side began to increase, so Lao Lin finally turned around and became a fan of the emperor again.
In Xiaotumen Mountain, he personally killed Yixuan's cronies. This was a surrender letter, and the Kirigakure kid could see it very clearly.
"Old Lin! There is nothing wrong with choosing the side that is beneficial to you in life! If you took the wrong path in the past, you will take the wrong path. Now I will give you a sunny road... Let me give you some confidence first and let you know that you will be able to follow us. What a promising prospect!"
"You are responsible for all the tasks in the second phase. This is our trust in you! Not only that, I will give you another big gift to let you know how powerful we are, Zhu Shanchi..."
The Kirigakure kid yelled, "Take out our gifts. General Lin wants to do something big. How can he do it without some good guys!"
"Hai..." a promise came from the distance, and soon I heard a lot of donkey carts and rickshaws coming out of some unknown dwellings and shabby houses in the city, all with wooden boxes on them.
The Kirigakure kid pried open a box full of brand-new Spencers, another neat box full of revolvers, and another box full of compact melon grenades.
"Haha, these treasures are enough to arm eight hundred elites. If you have a tough battle to fight later, I'll give them all to you..."
Good old Lin's eyes were blue, and the elite Ningguta cavalry gathered around him were also crazy. They had never seen so many good weapons in their lives! The weapons used by the volunteers on the opposite side almost made them jealous to death. They didn't expect that they could also use such awesome weapons.
"Oh my God! You, you, you... when did you hide so many weapons and ammunition in Ningguta City?"
The Kirigakure kid gave a ghostly smile, "Of course it's just in case of emergencies! Fortunately, you guys pulled back from the brink in time, otherwise haha..." Needless to say, the rest of the story went without saying. Cold sweat broke out on the spines of Lao Lin and the others. These weapons and equipment were made by eight hundred elites. No problem, by then a beheading operation will lead to the capture of the general's mansion.
"Take it! It's all yours. After you follow the Prime Minister, you will become popular and drink spicy food. There are countless treasures like this..."
At this moment, another pair of cavalrymen rushed over like dragons. Immediately, General Hunchun shouted with a voice like Hong Zhong, "Master Kirigakure, do you want to steal my military heart again? Don't buy it anymore, you have to remember Our allegiance is always to His Majesty the Emperor!"
"Even if we are fooling around, we are still fooling around with the emperor!"
The Kirigakure brat flipped up his hair and smiled like a flower. The officers around him were stunned and many people swallowed their saliva involuntarily.
"The general is right, of course he is fooling around with His Majesty! But now His Majesty is the apprentice of our Prime Minister, and master and disciple are one and the same, so there is nothing wrong with hanging out with the Emperor's Master!"
"I'm not going to talk to you, I'm just asking you when to set off! Now that everything has been decided, it's time to start taking action!"
"That's right, we can set off now. The journey is still far away. It will take us three days to ride fast. Let's start the second plan first. I think we can entrust it to General Lin..."
Hunchun looked at Lao Lin and then at the elite weapons of the eight hundred people on the ground. He nodded and took off his sword from his waist and threw it away. "This is the sword I carry with me. Take it and use it! The one handed to you is Fifteen hundred people were pieced together from various battalions. They are all elites and many of them have not been taken care of by you..."
"I know them. They are very capable and have a bad temper. They are all a group of soldiers and gangsters. I will use my sword to scare them. This mission only needs to be successful, not failed! I will chop anyone who disobeys me." Did they all hear clearly..."
"I will obey the general's order... General, don't worry, we know the importance... We usually have no time to joke around. Can we not work hard for such a big deal today? Just wait for the good news..."
"Okay! This is my good news. I will leave these five thousand direct descendants to you. You can rest assured that as long as the task is finally completed, I will ask Your Majesty to come to review the army in person! Let Your Majesty come to see you in person..."
"Long live!" Everyone cheered.
Hunchun and Wuyin Xiaogui each led three hundred elite cavalry, riding their horses and whipping their whips all the way north along the ancient post road, aiming for the Heilongjiang River. Lao Lin brandished his sword and shouted, "Weapons are distributed according to military age! In two hours, no matter if everyone is here or not, we all have to set off! There is wealth and flowers, and today we will fight with our lives!"
"Long live the Emperor! Long live the Qing Dynasty!" The roar at the gate of the city was earth-shattering, frightening the people all to their homes.
