Rise From the Humble

  Chapter 1454 Master Liu fainted again

After the failure of the Japanese suppression campaign, Liu Zhifu was in a hurry and fainted for three hours. Xu Qianhuhu and others couldn't wake up no matter how much they pinched and screamed. Xun waited for several measures before he woke up faintly, his eyes were empty and he looked at the people around him in a daze. It took a long time to recall what happened, and then heaved a heavy sigh.

"Master Liu, Master Liu, you have finally woken up. The generals/lower-officers are worried. How do you feel now?" Xu Qianhu and others scrambled to greet the old doctor again and again, "Zhang Old mister, hurry up and see how Master Liu is doing."

  Old doctor Zhang stepped forward with a medicine box in hand, ready to check his pulse again to check on Liu Zhifu's physical condition.

   "Hey, no need, old man, don't look at it. I know my own body best. This time the Japanese were suppressed, soldiers were lost, and the casualties were heavy. In the end, the Japanese pirates were beaten and the Japanese pirates left. This officer is in a hurry"

  Liu Zhifu waved his hand to reject their kindness, sighed heavily again, and said quietly.

  Prefect Liu spoke from his heart. This time he and Xu Qianhu mobilized heavy troops to encircle and suppress the Japanese pirates, and handed in a zero-point answer sheet, no, a negative-point answer sheet.

For this trip to suppress the Japanese, he recruited more than a thousand soldiers and horses, and Xu Qianhu also recruited more than a thousand soldiers and horses. In addition to recruiting 800 reinforcements later, the two of them recruited a total of 3,000 soldiers and horses. , encircled and suppressed one hundred and fifty Japanese pirates.

   With such a force, it should be safe to encircle and suppress the Japanese pirates with heavy troops, but the result is vomiting blood. They killed more than 600 people in the siege and suppressed the Japanese pirates, and suffered countless serious injuries, but none of the Japanese pirates was injured and retreated completely.

   This time the siege became a complete joke.

  I wanted to grab a meritorious service in suppressing the Japanese, but I didn't expect that not only did I fail to make a meritorious service, but I might be convicted for not doing enough to suppress the Japanese.

  So, after hearing the news that the Japanese pirates crossed the river on a raft, Liu Zhifu fainted in a moment of panic.

  After Liu Zhifu sighed quietly, Xu Qianhu couldn't help showing a mournful expression.

Liu Zhifu is in a hurry, so why not Xu Qianhu? Their situation is exactly the same, they are all in danger of committing crimes if they fail to steal merit. They are standard sufferers, but as a general, his physical endurance is stronger than that of Liu Zhifu Some, although they were in a hurry, did not faint.

   "Hey, Xu Qianhu, how is the situation now?"

  Liu Zhifu was supported by his subordinates, sat up on the bed, leaned on a pillow, and asked Xu Qianhu.

"Returning to my lord, it was late last night and the terrain on the other side was complicated. I was worried that I would be taken advantage of by the Japanese pirates. If the Japanese pirates set up an ambush, the consequences would be disastrous. Therefore, I ordered the soldiers to stand still and wait for the day. Send He Baihu to lead 300 elite troops to cross the river to the other side to search for traces of Japanese pirates."

  Xu Qianhu came forward and reported that he was a little worried that the magistrate Liu would blame him for being afraid of the Japanese and delaying the battle.

  Prefect Liu nodded when he heard the words, and said softly, "Xu Qianhu's arrangement is very safe, very safe."

Liu Zhifu has already deeply experienced the ferocity of this group of Japanese pirates. With the strength of his troops, he has no hope of eradicating the Japanese pirates, and even dare not think about it. The only thing he thinks about now is to reduce losses and not seek meritorious service. , but please never again.

Xu Qianhu's arrangement is naturally to delay the war opportunity and delay the suppression of the Japanese, but there will be no more losses. The night is dangerous, and I will not send troops. Even if the Japanese pirates set up an ambush, I will not be ambushed by the Japanese pirates. , wait until dawn and then send people to investigate the traces of the Japanese pirates. The Japanese pirates landed to plunder wealth. Well, at this time, it is safe to go to investigate the traces of the Japanese pirates. There will be no danger.

  Xu Qianhu breathed a sigh of relief.

   "My lord, drink ginseng tea to moisten your throat and nourish your qi and blood." A subordinate thoughtfully brought a cup of ginseng tea and handed it to Liu Zhifu.

   "Thank you." Liu Zhifu thanked him, took the ginseng tea, and prepared to drink it. The subordinate's cup of ginseng tea came at just the right time. He fainted for a long time, and at this moment he was a little thirsty, so it was very appropriate to drink a cup of ginseng tea.

  However, just as Liu Zhifu brought the ginseng tea to his lips, there was a rush of footsteps outside.

   "Report!" A long, short-breathed voice appeared outside the tent.

   "Come in!" Liu Zhifu temporarily stopped drinking tea, raised his head and called outside the account, ordering the person who reported outside the account to come in.

  The person outside the account was let in, and it was He Baihu who was sent by Xu Qianhu to lead a team to investigate the traces of the Japanese pirates.

   "He Baihu, didn't you lead the team to investigate the traces of the Japanese pirates? Why did you return so soon? But you were ambushed by the Japanese pirates?!"

  He Qianhu hurried forward and asked, worried if there was an accident on the way, or if he was ambushed by Japanese pirates.

  After hearing Xu Qianhu's words, Liu Zhifu became nervous when he learned that He Baihu was the leading general sent to investigate the traces of Japanese pirates.

   "Going back to Lord Zhifu and Lord Qianhu, the general did not encounter Japanese pirates in ambush." ​​He Baihu replied with clasped fists.

  When Liu Zhifu and Xu Qianhu heard the words, they immediately breathed a sigh of relief, thank God, it would have been better if there were no Japanese pirates in ambush.

   "Then you found out where the Japanese pirates are staying?" Xu Qianhu asked again.

  He Baihu shook his head.

   "Then why are you coming back so soon?" Xu Qianhu glared at He Baihu, a little dissatisfied.

   "There will be an important report at the end." He Baihu clasped his fists and said.

   "Firstly, you didn't catch the Japanese pirates in an ambush, and secondly, you didn't find any traces of the Japanese pirates. What else do you have to report?"

  Xu Qianhu said disapprovingly, seriously suspecting that He Baihu was afraid of encountering Japanese pirates and found an excuse to come back.

   "Master Xu, please be safe and don't be impatient, He Baihu, what do you have to report?" Liu Zhifu waved his hand.

   Hearing that no Japanese pirates were caught in an ambush, and no trace of Japanese pirates was found, Liu Zhifu was not much worried.

"Beizhi was ordered to lead a team across the river to search for traces of Japanese pirates. He walked four miles along the official road. At the turn of the official road near Qiaotoubao Town, he found blood flowing into a river and corpses lying all over the road. He went up to investigate and found it," said He Baihu. He paused here, with a terrified look on his face.

   "Damn Japanese pirates, they killed my innocent people again!" Liu Zhifu couldn't help cursing when he heard the words.

   "Not the common people." He Baihu shook his head in panic.

   "Isn't it a commoner?! Who is that?" Zhifu Liu's heart skipped a beat, feeling something was wrong.

   "Return to my lord, the general will check carefully, and found a stack of official documents at the scene, confirming that the one who was killed by the Japanese pirates was Qian Jing, Qian Yushi's family of seven, his servants, and **** soldiers who had returned home after returning home!"

  He Baihu raised his head and reported, with horror on his face.

   "What?! Old Yushi Qian?!" Magistrate Liu trembled as if struck by thunder, and with a thud, a cup of ginseng tea fell to the ground and shattered into pieces, and then passed out again.

   "Master Liu, Master Liu, Doctor Zhang, hurry up, Doctor Zhang, Master Liu has passed out again"

   There was a panic in the tent.
