Chapter 319 The Current Situation of Qi

Chai Jin's handsome face looked a little ferocious because of the twitching of his cheek muscles due to anger.

The reason is very simple.

This Hongtong Wang Han was his appointed vanguard general, and was also equivalent to the face of him, the prince of Qi.

What about now?

Not to mention the great defeat, the commander also surrendered to the bandits!

How could this make Chai Jin look good?

"Tell me in detail!"

Chai Jin's face was gloomy, but he couldn't help but not get angry, and just asked about the encounters of the hundred generals who escaped back.

Then he listened to what the hundred generals said.

Wang Han Hongtong didn't know the art of war, and he just drove the Qi Fan soldiers on the road, and ended up being ambushed by the Taohua Mountain bandits.

And Wang Han...

Hearing this, Chai Jin was even more shocked.

Especially when he learned that Wang Han was chopped in half by a bandit leader within three rounds? !

You know, this Wang Han is a second-rate peak warrior, how could he die so easily?

So, the leader of Taohua Mountain is at least a first-class master?

If so, this will be a fierce battle.

Chai Jin never expected that these bandits, whom he had not taken seriously, would be so difficult to deal with.

So, he made a prompt decision, gathered the fleeing Qi Fan soldiers, and chose to set up camp at the foot of Taohua Mountain.

Chai Jin planned to find out the details of Taohua Mountain before making a decision.

At the same time.

"Qingzhou?"

Lin Chen also received relevant secret reports from Jinyiwei.

Among them, the matter of Qingzhou concerned him the most.

After all, Taohua Mountain and Erlong Mountain are now gathering a lot of people.

In the original book, there are many mountain strongholds around this place.

Not to mention the above two strongholds, there is also the evil place of Qingfeng Mountain.

What surprised Lin Chen even more was the name of the King of Qi and his prince.

Chai Rong, Chai Jin.

Well, these two people turned out to be father and son.

While laughing in his heart, Lin Chen couldn't help but ponder.

According to Li Zhao's imperial edict, he led 40,000 Yulin Guards to Shandong. In name, he was going to eliminate bandits in various places.

In fact, he was going to intimidate the King of Qi and make him dare not underestimate the court.

Thinking of this, Lin Chen had a preliminary plan in his mind.

In this way, the army marched quickly and would enter Shandong soon.

This time, Lin Chen specially brought the Water Margin heroes recruited in Shandong.

Among them were Yang Zhiling Zhen, Song Jiang, the three brothers of the Ruan family, and the red-haired ghost Liu Tang.

These people have been tempered in the army for many days, and they have put away some of their rough temperaments. In addition, they have become figures as middle-level generals in the Yulin Guards.

Lin Chen looked at the Liangshan heroes in front of him who were wearing armor and had their own momentum, and nodded slightly.

"My lord!"

Yang Zhi didn't know why Lin Chen summoned them to the military tent, so he bowed and saluted, intending to ask.

Seeing this, Lin Chen waved his hand to signal everyone to take a seat first and not to be restrained.

For Song Jiang.

Working under Lin Chen was a dream come true.

You should know that in the early stage of the original book, Song Jiang had always wanted to work as an official, not as a gangster boss.

Now he has been appreciated by General Lin and serves as a sixth-rank chief in the army, handling paperwork.

In the past, Song Jiang would not even dare to think of such a good thing.

"Chief Song."

Song Jiang, who had been distracted for a moment, suddenly heard Lin Chen's voice and was startled.

"I'm here!"

Lin Chen narrowed his eyes slightly and said with a hint of meaning: "Chief Song, I heard that you were quite prestigious in the green forest in the past?"

Song Jiang was stunned when he heard this.

He didn't know what Lin Chen's intention was in asking this question, but he nodded truthfully and didn't dare to hide it.

"Just right."

Lin Chen said his intention, "This time we are going to Shandong to eliminate the local banditry."

The generals understood, and they had also vaguely heard about the increasingly powerful bandit forces in Shandong.

Song Jiang thought of something and wiped the fine cold sweat from his forehead.

He didn't know why the banditry was worth the court's important general Lin Chenjia to lead the army to eliminate it.

But fortunately, by chance, he joined General Lin's army early.

Once upon a time.

The Tower-Bearing Heavenly King Chao Gai, who was as famous as Song Jiang in Yuncheng, was wanted by the government for robbing the birthday gift.

Even if Lin Chen took the heroes of Yuncheng County away, Chao Gai still couldn't escape the original plot of robbing the birthday gift.

Song Jiang asked himself, if he was still in Yuncheng, he would inevitably be implicated in this matter.

Thinking of this, Song Jiang couldn't help but feel a little scared.

"But according to your intention, could it be that you want to...?"

Just as Song Jiang thought, Lin Chen summoned these Liangshan heroes today, intending to let them lead a group to suppress the bandits.

Of course.

This is the intention on the surface.

Lin Chen gave Song Jiang an order to act at his convenience.

Among these mountain bandits, there must be many capable and brave men who have no choice but to join the bandits.

Now that the court is in need of people, those who have abandoned darkness and joined the light can be recruited for their own use.

Song Jiang understood what Lin Chen meant when he heard it.

This is to let them use their former reputation as green forests to recruit some useful talents.

"Please rest assured, your Excellency, I will definitely do a good job of this!" Song Jiang said respectfully.

"Remember, those who really do evil will be killed, understand?!"

Lin Chen thought of something, and looked at Song Jiang with a slightly cold look.

The latter shuddered, but nodded repeatedly.

After all, among the so-called heroes of Water Margin, there are many who have committed many evil deeds, and these people are all on Lin Chen’s kill list.

Why did he let Song Jiang supervise this matter?

Lin Chen took a look at the task of the system's Star Constellation Dispute.

According to the task.

Either recruit people who use the name of the star for their own use, or kill them.

Lin Chen currently does not have much time to participate in the Water Margin plot.

One month later, he needs to go to the Zixiao Kunlun Conference as agreed by Feng Qingyang.

Because of this.

Lin Chen plans to let Song Yasi perform well, and he thinks there will be a surprise.

Song Jiang accepted the order.

Lin Chen also specially arranged Liu Tang and Zhu Tong to cooperate.

At the same time, Lin Chen ordered Yang Zhi and other military lieutenants to lead their Yulin guards to the most serious banditry to suppress the bandits.

And he himself led more than 20,000 Yulin guards and hurried on the road slowly.

In fact, he went straight to the fiefdom of King Qi.

"The one who comes is not good."

Chai Rong heard the report from his staff and narrowed his eyes.

How could he not see the reason why Li Zhao sent the imperial guards, such elite troops, to Shandong?

It was nothing more than coming for Qi Fan.

"I heard that the commander of the army is General Lin Chenjia of the Imperial Guards?"

Chai Rong thought of something and turned to ask his staff.

The staff immediately said yes.

"This Lin Chenjia is not someone who can be easily dealt with."

Chai Rong also knew that Lin Chen had made a great record since his debut, and even he felt a little headache.

Fortunately, even if the court was afraid of the King of Qi, it would not dare to cause trouble to Qi Fan without reason.

If it really did, it would only affect the already tense nerves of the kings of different surnames in various parts of Li Tang.

Therefore, in Chai Rong's view.

This move by the court was more like a show of strength, warning him, Chai Rong, not to act rashly.

"By the way."

Chai Rong suddenly asked, "How is the situation of the prince?"

The staff heard Chai Rong asking about Chai Jin and did not dare to hide it.

Although Chai Jin deliberately concealed the fact that the vanguard army had suffered a setback, the army had not made any progress, and it could not be concealed after all.
