According to the agreement, Lao Jiu and Hao Yaoqi led a hundred riders along the south bank of Tianguan River to the meeting place, which was the intersection of Tianguan River and Jiyukou River. This place was actually chosen by Zhu Chongsheng.
There were actually considerations in choosing this location.
The consideration was the geographical location of Jiyukou Military Camp.
Today, the boundary between the imperial court and Li Chuang in Jingzhou is the Dongjing River in the west of Qianjiang County. The Dongjing River runs north-south in this section of Qianjiang, while the Tianguan River extending from Changhu outside Jingzhou City runs east-west. Direction: Along the Tianguan River, you can reach the foot of Jingzhou City. The premise is to follow the south bank. If you go to the north bank, you will go directly to Lianghu Lake and Changhu Lake.
The Jiyukou River runs north-south and enters the Tianguan River in the south. The Jiyukou Military Camp is more than ten miles away from this intersection. The reason why Zhu Chongjiu chose to meet on the south bank of the river mouth was to guard against the other party.
After all, the opponent has thousands of troops. If someone is playing dirty tricks and rushes over with a huff, that's okay.
But on the south bank of the river, there are less worries, so the water in the Xiaxun River is rising sharply at this time, and the Tianguan River is not a small stream. It is not so convenient and quick for your army to come over and carry out encirclement and sneak attacks.
The so-called guarding against others is indispensable.
After all, I only have a thousand people, while the other party has tens of thousands of people. Although I am not afraid, it is always better to be careful.
Qi Yuquan also showed his master's magnanimity and nodded in agreement. There is actually a reason for this. There is no military camp that is close to water that is not accustomed to water. The lake was transported from the Tianguan River, not to mention that Jiyukou is surrounded by water on three sides, and ships are indispensable for military supplies. He can mobilize three to five hundred large and small ships at any time, so it is not difficult to transport troops and horses across the river.
Qi Yuquan did not bring many people with him. Nearly a hundred soldiers crossed the river early and waited on the south bank. It was cloudy and not exposed to the sun, but it was very hot. The group of people enjoyed the shade of the trees by the river and waited anxiously.
Lao Jiu didn't let him wait long. He didn't like to show off and was more impatient. When he saw the other party under the shade of a tree, he rushed over and was stopped by Qi Yuquan's men twenty steps away. He refused to let him go. Get closer.
At this time, Hao Yaoqi and others also followed, and they were slightly disappointed when they saw Qi Yuquan's unattractive and even wretched appearance. However, Qi Yuquan didn't think so. Although he was not as good as Yushu Linfeng, he was still talented. The other party's crowd scanned around, and their hearts sank. These people looked unruly and looked like they were not good friends. Then their eyes fell on Hao Yaoqi: "Is this the Ninth General?"
There was nothing I could do about it. Although Lao Jiu was also a strong man, his figure was much inferior to that of Hao Yaoqi, who was as muscular as an iron tower. He was quite eye-catching.
"Your ninth master is here!"
Lao Jiu snorted and Qi Yuquan frowned. This man was so rude. Fortunately, he was also a thief and was used to such rudeness. He cupped his hands and clasped his fists: "I've heard about the name of General Jiu for a long time, but today I saw him..."
"When we meet today, are you not as powerful as I am?" Hao Yaoqi laughed and took the lead. Qi Yuquan frowned again. This man seemed to have extraordinary momentum. He dared to speak like this in front of the commander of the Black Wolf Camp. He must not have Ordinary people.
So he raised his hands and asked, "I wonder if your Excellency is..."
"I am guarding the Black Bear Camp in the East Factory, Hao Yongzhong is the one." Hao Yaoqi grinned, his face full of pride. As expected, Qi Yuquan changed his color: "Hao Yaoqi..." Then he said with contempt: "Who did I ask? It turned out to be the one carrying the flag. Flag’s drunkard”
Hahahaha... Lao Jiu couldn't help but laugh: "Jiu Guan, you are really famous. This guy really knows you..."
Hao Yaoqi was furious: "No matter how big or small, let alone Niu Wancai and Ta Tianbao, even if I see Ma Huihui, I wouldn't dare to be so presumptuous. How dare you do this, a low-class thing like you, but you want to be beaten!"
"Are you worthy?" Qi Yuquan looked disdainful: "Even Li Chuang wouldn't dare to speak like this in front of Ma Dang's family. You, a flag-carrying thing, don't put your face on yourself. You are neither big nor small." ".
It's no wonder that Qi Yuquan was angry at Hao Yaoqi. In fact, this guy was a bit unscrupulous in his words. Who was Ma Huihui? Although his ultimate achievements were not as good as Li Zicheng's, he should be above Li Zicheng in terms of seniority and seniority.
You must know that when the world was in chaos and there were so many rebels in the Green Forest Road, they created a leader of the Green Forest Alliance. The first was Wang Ziyong, and the second was Gao Yingxiang. After Gao Yingxiang died, Ma Huihui was elected as the leader of the Thirteen Families. The third leader, at that time both Li Zicheng and Zhang Xianzhong had to obey his orders.
Putting this aside, at that time, when Li Zicheng and Zhang Xianzhong were fighting guerrilla warfare with the court and being chased like lost dogs, Ma Huihui established a base in the Huoshan area. When they were desperate, they both defected to Ma Huihui.
Later, Li Chuang's company went public, and Ma Huihui joined the stock market and became a senior executive. Instead, he had to listen to Li Chuang's orders. However, Li Chuang respected him very much. He had many complicated factions in the mountains, but Ma Huihui's team had always been clear and stable. Jingzhou concentrates on development and does not participate in cliques in other hills. It is its own faction, united and powerful.
So much so that even the rebellious Liu Zongmin did not dare to easily offend the Ma Huihui Group. Therefore, the team of the Fifth Battalion of Ge Zuo had always been very proud. After all, Li Zicheng was just living with us, and they looked down upon him. Those people under his command, so after hearing what Hao Yaoqi said, Qi Yuquan was extremely angry.
But Hao Yaoqi was also a tinderbox. Being scolded like this by a low-class character made Lao Jiu laugh at the joke and almost burst into tears. He couldn't bear it on his face: "You are seeking death." The sword slapped the horse over, but Zhu Chongsheng held it back: "General Hao, don't be anxious. It's not too late to speak first and then fight..."
"Say a fucking egg, I'll chop him to death with a knife..." Hao Yaoqi was in the heat of the moment. How could Zhu Chongsheng stop him? It was Lao Jiu who spoke up: "Jiu Guan, we are guests here. The scholar is right. It's not too late to fight after saying that, otherwise others will say that our Dongchang Guards are rude." He narrowed his eyes, put away his smile and glared at Qi Yuquan coldly: "General Hao is the commander of the Black Bear Battalion of the Dongchang Guards of the Imperial Court, you... If you insult him with something that is not popular, you will insult the court, but I really thought that I would not dare to deal with you here."
His eyes were like daggers. Even Qi Yuquan, who had been on the battlefield for a long time, couldn't help but tremble in his heart. The rumors about this man were murderous and violent, and it seemed true. He felt fear in his heart, but his words were still tough: "Don't buckle randomly." Hat, I'm not treating people right, I'm going to humiliate the leader first." He glanced at Hao Yaoqi, still showing disdain: "He is just a small character who carries the flag and shouts. Is that wrong? Don't look at it. He seems to be so majestic now, but that's not because the seller is seeking glory..."
Damn you, Hao Yaoqi couldn't bear it any longer: "You dare to criticize me, you deserve it," he said, waving his sword and clapped his horse and rushed over. Qi Yuquan's soldiers saw this and clapped their horses quickly. Facing the fight, Hao Yaoqi was not afraid at all, and slashed at him with his sword. His men did not need to call for help to fight, and dozens of them were killed in the blink of an eye.
Qi Yuquan's face turned livid: "Shout, flag bearer, are you sure you want to tear your face apart?"
