Chapter 457
Zhang Fei and Xu Shu turned around from behind and called Liu Bei before he came back to his senses.

Liu Bei said: "Have you heard the conversation just now, Yuan Zhi, is this Qin Ming testing me?"

Xu Shu didn't answer directly, but said: "Just now when Qin Ming mentioned being forced, I remembered his origin. This Qin Ming was originally from Qingzhou Governor's Mansion. After being captured, he had no home to return to, so he had to return to Shuibo, and since he was on Shuibo, Qin Ming has made great achievements in a series of battles with the mace in his hand."

Liu Bei frowned and said: "This matter is not a secret. I also know that at that time Song Jiang and Hua Rong planned to recruit water thieves in Qingzhou, but they were betrayed and arrested. Later, when the two were escorted to the state office, they were taken refuge in Rescued by water thieves, Qin Ming led his army to intercept, but was captured by Song Jiang and brought back to the water..."

Xu Shu nodded and said: "So it's not without purpose that Qin Ming came to work this time. He was a senior official in the governor's office, but he was forced to join Shuibo. Until now, our army has been declining and we are going deep alone, so he will inevitably feel emotional."

Liu Bei raised his brows and said, "After hearing what you said, is Qin Ming really planning to serve me?"

Xu Shu shook his head with a smile, and said, "Not necessarily, after all, Qin Ming has stayed in Shuibo for four or five years, so it is inevitable that he has feelings for these brothers..."

Liu Bei narrowed his eyebrows and said, "So it's possible that he pretended to serve me and wanted to test me?"

Xu Shu nodded and said, "But my lord, there is no need to worry. You only need to test it out, and you will know what he wants."

Liu Bei's eyes lit up: "Yuan Zhi helped me, Qin Ming is a 6-star general, if I can get him to work, I can give up Yangzhou and go to Qingzhou to hide my strength and bide my time."

Xu Shu leaned down and whispered in his ear for a long time before raising his head.

"My lord, you only need to try it out to know whether his vote is true or not, but you have to think about it, if you really try it, it means that Chao Gai and others have doubts about your lord."

Liu Bei nodded: "I can't keep a pawn by my side that can be used by others at any time. Let's arrange it like this. But before that, we must find a way out."

Xu Shu nodded and said, "It's easy to find a way out, but do we really want to give up everything now?"

Liu Bei hummed: "It's not that we have come to a dead end. This time is not too bad. At least if we succeed, Qin Ming will join us. Let's arrange it."

"promise!"

In the middle of the night, Qin Ming was called up, and an unsigned letter was handed over to him.

"If you are willing to vote, when you go out tomorrow, please be the general who stays behind."

Qin Ming took a deep breath, his eyes were flickering, he let it out immediately, and fell asleep on the bed.

Early the next morning, the [-] cavalry carefully selected were ready to go. Shuibo's strength was not weak. Even though many people were caught, he still gathered more than ten generals.

This combination is very powerful. When Wu Ming first arrived in the world of generals, no prince could come up with such an awesome lineup.

Chao Gai clasped his fists and said: "There is no need to send Liu Bei away anymore. Arrange to fight for a city as soon as possible so that we can have timely rescue efforts after we rescue other brothers."

Liu Bei clasped his fists and said: "Then Bei will not be sent far away. The big boss puts safety first, and don't get too involved in things. If you are plotted by the enemy, Bei is here waiting for the big boss to return in triumph."

Chao Gai and the others clasped their fists together again, but suddenly, Qin Ming said: "Big boss, please order me to be under the command of the big steward."

Chao Gai raised his eyebrows and said: "You should know how dangerous our trip is. As a 6-star holy general, you are an indispensable top combat force. Without you, our army's strength will decline a lot. Besides, Liu Bei already has four divine generals and 4 elite soldiers and horses to help him, and taking down one city is not more than enough."

Qin Ming shook his head stubbornly and said: "The chief should also know that there were strange movements from Taihu Lake before, and Guan Yu and others were still watching thirty miles away. Finding that all the brothers have left, there is no guarantee that they will not lead the army and swallow us up with one sentence..."

Chao Gai's face was a little ugly, and he said angrily, "This is an order."

Qin Ming's eyes were persistent, and he said happily and fearlessly: "Even if it is an order, but for the sake of the army, please forgive me for not being able to obey the order at the end."

Chao Gai was furious, blowing his beard and staring, his face turned rosy, obviously he was holding back.

Liu Bei was overjoyed, and hurriedly said: "Don't get angry, chief, the expedition is imminent, don't hurt your peace, brother Qin Ming, apologize to chief quickly."

Qin Ming snorted coldly, turned his head away, and seemed not interested in speaking.

"Good good!"

Chao Gai's fingers trembled angrily, pointed at Qin Ming and said seriously: "Now I will cut off your name as the five tiger generals of the horse army. Come, someone, take this man under custody for me, and no one can visit him!"

Liu Bei opened his mouth to persuade him, but Chao Gai waved his hand violently and said, "Stop talking, I've made up my mind, Liu Bei, you will arrange someone to watch him!"

Liu Bei hurriedly waved his hand, and several soldiers rushed up, trying to tie up Qin Ming.

"Hahaha!"

Laughing unceasingly, Qin Ming said angrily: "Don't touch me, I'll go by myself... The sky is already muddy, I didn't expect that you are all blind, no matter what, no one can see through Qin Ming's clear heart. "

As they went farther and farther, many brothers who followed Chao Gai to the expedition stepped forward to persuade them that they did not know the plan like Lu Junyi and others.

Xu Shu, who was behind Liu Bei, quickly scanned everyone's faces, understood clearly, and winked at Liu Bei.

The latter understood and knew that Xu Shu had made up his mind, so he clasped his fists and said, "When the army goes out to fight, the most taboo is to lose morale. The big leader must not cause the army's morale to be disturbed because of a trivial matter. Why don't you go out quickly?"

Chao Gai's chest heaved up and down, as if he was still angry. He grabbed Liu Bei's sword and broke it in half with a click.

"If anyone dares to persuade him again, he will be punished like Qin Ming!"

Everyone was chilling, Chao Gai only got angry twice in his life, the first time was because he had seen the tragic situation in Shenzhou, and the second time was now.

"Open up!"

The three thousand soldiers set off quietly and soon left everyone's sight. Liu Bei took a deep breath, looked at Xu Shu and said, "How was it?"

Xu Shu nodded and said: "Looking at it, Lu Junyi is still arrogant, Hua Rong is at a loss, and the others are either at a loss, some are anxious, and some are even a little uneasy. From the analysis of the humble staff, they are not in collusion."

Liu Bei breathed a sigh of relief and said, "It seems that Qin Ming is indeed sincere in his service."
