Chapter 47

After landing near Jinshanwei, Qian Mo and his party found a forest to hide.

After all, there are about 200 of them, and it is easy to expose their whereabouts by walking on the road like this during the day.

At this time, Qian Ning is not sure whether Xia Wanchun and the others are in the cottage on Shengui Island.

So Qian Ning first went to the previously agreed contact place to inquire about news.

The meeting place is located in an unremarkable tea shed in Huating County, the seat of Songjiang Prefecture.

Xiaoer said enthusiastically: "The store has freshly baked sesame biscuits and fresh Yangchun noodles. Objectively, what would you like to eat?"

Qian Ning said: "Xiao Er, I have bad eyesight recently, do you have tea for clearing fire and improving eyesight?"

Xiao Er said: "This clear fire and bright eyes, of course it belongs to Biluochun in Suzhou, objectively wait a moment and I will brew a pot for you."

After taking a sip of tea, Qian Ning said, "I heard that Suzhou Biluochun pays attention to the place of origin. Your Biluochun tastes good. I wonder where it comes from?"

Xiaoer said: "Thanks to the guest officer's compliment, the Biluochun in the shop is grown by the shopkeeper himself, and it is produced in Taihu Lake."

Qian Ning said: "Your tea is pretty good. I want to go to Taihu Lake to buy some tea recently. I don't know if your shopkeeper is in Taihu Lake?"

Xiaoer said: "The shopkeeper is not going out in Taihu Lake today, but the guest officer can rest assured that my shopkeeper will rush back to Taihu Lake tonight, so you can't delay your purchase of tea."

Seeing that the news had been inquired clearly, after drinking two sips of tea, Qian Ning was about to turn around and leave.

Seeing a beggar-like man, he stopped himself.

The beggar said: "Brother, Xiaosheng has been hungry for several days, can you give me two pancakes?"

Qian Ning saw that although this man was dressed as a beggar, he should also be a poor scholar. Thinking that it would not be easy for him, he asked Xiaoer to serve him two sesame cakes.

Who would have thought that this down-and-out scholar would follow Qian Ning relentlessly after getting sesame seed cakes.

Said: "Xiaosheng has understood the code words you just said, and asked this little brother to take me to Taihu Lake."

Qian Ning was also taken aback, and said, "What nonsense are you talking about?"

I saw the down-and-out scholar saying: "Although this Biluochun is produced in Suzhou, how can there be new tea in such a cold day? Do you still have to go to the place of origin to collect old tea?"

Seeing that there was murderous intent in Qian Ning's eyes at this moment, the down-and-out scholar hurriedly said, "Brother, don't misunderstand, Xiaosheng is not a spy of the Qing court."

"Xiaosheng Liu Yichen, a native of Jining, Yanzhou Prefecture, Shandong Province, was framed by the "Confucian family in Qufu" and lost his family business, so he had to live in the south of the Yangtze River. He has been starving for several days. Xiaomin knows that the little brother must be a volunteer from Taihu Lake. Xiaosheng also has A heart to serve the country, please take me in."

Originally, Qian Ning didn't want to cause trouble, but this Liu Yichen, who could see through his secret words at a glance, must have some skills.

This guy can't get rid of him even if he pesters him for a while, and he can't bear to kill him.This Liu Yichen doesn't look like a spy from the Qing army, so let's take him back for the second young master to have a look at.

So he made two laps around Huating, and came to the woods to join Qian Mo.

Seeing that there was an extra "tail" behind Qian Ning, Qian Mo asked, "What's the matter with this man?"

So Chan Ning recounted the situation just now.

Qian Mo thought that this Liu Yichen had good observation skills, and was quite suitable for intelligence work. Fatty Huang's Zuixianlou still had 5% of his profit, so he just lacked personal contact.

So he asked Liu Yichen: "Do you know how to manage?"

Liu Yichen said: "Xiaosheng was originally from a wealthy family. There are some acres of land in his family, the ancestral property of the restaurant, and he is quite familiar with account management."

Qian Mo said: "It's not enough to just talk about it. You can follow us back to Taihu Lake first. If you really have the ability, I will appoint someone else."

Seeing that Qian Mo agreed to take him in, Liu Yichen immediately beamed with joy, and said loudly, "Xiaosheng, thank you Mr. Qian for your cultivation!"

Next, the day passed without any danger, and the Qing army in the nearby Jinshanwei was not disturbed.

After nightfall, Qian Mo led more than 200 people out of the woods and started marching towards Wujiang.

Unexpectedly, not long after they set off, they found a large number of people mobilizing on the road ahead, and Qian Mo was so frightened that he ordered the team to hide quickly.

Lu Shanhai said: "It seems that the green camp came from Hangzhou, with a total of 3000 to [-] people."

Qian Mo said: "Looking at the direction of the march, they are transferred to Wusong. It seems that the Qing army has already known about the changes in Chongming. We have to hurry back to Taihu Lake. There may be other Qing troops along the way. Everyone pay attention to concealment!"

Fortunately, they never encountered other Qing soldiers again. Despite all the hardships, Qian Mo and others finally ran into Xia Wanchun who came to meet him by the Taihu Lake near Wujiang.

"Xiaoyin!!!"

"Brother Mo!!!"

After more than a month of separation, the two finally met again!

At this time, Qian Mo opened his arms and hugged Xia Wanchun tightly, the two hugged each other and wept, unwilling to let go for a long time.

If it is placed in later generations, the embrace of two handsome teenagers like this will inevitably arouse the imagination of others.

But at this moment, everyone who survived the catastrophe was immersed in joy, and they didn't think about it.

In the end, it was Qian Mo who spoke first: "Okay, Xiao Yin, brother Mo has finally lived up to his promise in the future, and he can save his useful body to fight against Qing Dynasty and restore Ming with Xiao Yin!"

Xia Wanchun also said: "Brother Mo has worked hard all the way, this is not a place to reminisce about the past, let's go back to the cottage first."

In the daytime, Taihu Lake is full of smoke and waves, and at night, the moonlight of Taihu Lake is also unique.

Thinking of the farewell by the Qinhuai River before, I can't help but feel a lot of emotion!

There is no dust in the sky, and a lone moon wheel in the sky.

Who on the riverside sees the moon for the first time, and when does the river moon shine on people?
Life has been endless from generation to generation, and Jiang Yue looks similar every year.

I don't know who Jiangyue is for, but I see the Yangtze River sending water.

Withdrawing his thoughts, Qian Mo said: "Hong Chengchou is very scheming, brother Mo has not been able to fully gain the trust of the old thief, and in the end he failed to bring back the 500 taels of silver."

Xia Wanchun said: "Since the news came back from Jinshan Temple, Xiao Yin has been leading people to ambush by the river, ready to meet Brother Mo at any time. That night there was a storm in the heart of the river, and many corpses were found by the river the next day. There is no news of brother Mo, Xiao Yin is really worried that brother Mo has died."

Qian Mo said: "That night there was a storm on the Yangtze River, and my brother was close to death. Unfortunately, due to God's will, most of the silver couples sank into the river."

Xia Wanchun asked: "By the way, why didn't you see your father-in-law?"

At this time, Qian An blamed himself and said, "It's all the little ones who didn't take good care of the master. The master was killed by that traitor Yang Wenqi."

Qian Mo said, "Qian An, this is not your fault."

"Daddy was hijacked by Yang Wenqi and threatened me. In order not to embarrass me, daddy threw himself into the river, and his whereabouts are still unknown."

Qian Ning explained: "Originally, the second young master used a trick to easily defeat the national treasure of the land and take down Chongming County together with Yang Wenqi. Unexpectedly, Yang Wenqi betrayed us in the middle of the night and attacked us."

Qian Mo said: "I learned about the relationship between Yang Wenqi and the Taihu Rebels from Qian Ning, and I knew that Yang Wenqi's 'Great Victory' was Xiaoyin's plan to use the leader of the water bandit to get the golden cicada out of its shell."

"So I used the money to lure Yang Wenqi step by step, but I didn't expect to be tricked by Yang Wenqi in the end, and even cost my father's life. I really regret it for my brother!"

"On the contrary, Xiaoyin, you impress Brother Wei. You have developed the Taihu Rebel Army to such a large scale in a short period of time, and even captured two counties in one fell swoop."

Xia Wanchun said with some embarrassment: "This is all thanks to the help of Brother Weng and Brother Ang, and the money and food sent by the money steward sent by Brother Mo."

After hearing about Qian Mo's record, Weng Zhiheng and Wu Qi also admired Qian Mo. They led less than 2000 people to fight against 4500 people, and defeated the opponent with less than 100 casualties.

And then faced with the sudden counterattack and sneak attack of the friendly army, Lu Shanhai, Hong Fugui and others were able to break out of the encirclement calmly.

The so-called heroes respecting heroes made Weng Zhiheng and Wu Qi full of sympathy for Lu Shanhai and Hong Fugui.

And Xia Wanchun and Gu Yanwu have known each other for a long time, and they had planned against Su Song's Admiral Wu Shengzhao together before.

Xia Wanchun also said: "Brother Zhongqing is proficient in everything in astronomy and geography, and he has always been proud and arrogant. I never thought that even he would be willing to serve Brother Mo!"

"By the way, this afternoon there are rumors about Yang Wenqi and Tu Guobao occupying Chongming and raising troops against the Qing."

"In addition, it is also said that Yang Wenqi has intercepted 500 million taels of silver destined for Beijing."

"Now that the people's hearts are available, it's time for our rebel army to flex their muscles!"

Qian Mo said: "Yang Wenqi actually got 28W taels of silver. The 500 W taels should be to strengthen my reputation, so he lied about it."

"On our way back to Taihu Lake today, we found that the Qing army from Hangzhou was sending troops to Wusongkou. Chongming guards the key point of the Yangtze River. It is known as the "Gateway of the Great River, Ten Counties Pingfan". Offensive."

"But the battle of Chongming lies first with the navy, not with the horse infantry. As long as our Daming navy can remain invincible, we can ensure that Chongming is safe."

"When I was in Nanjing, I got information from Qian Qianyi: Jin Shenghuan and Wang Deren in Jiangxi are very dissatisfied with the Qing court, and it is very likely that they are anyway."

Of course Qian Mo can't say that he can predict the future, that he is the god in your hearts!He could only use Qian Qianyi's name.

"Nowadays the anti-Qing situation is very good, we have to be more cautious. Although the land of Susong has enough money and food, we also have a certain foundation among the people, but with all due respect, this place is easy to attack and difficult to defend, and it is too close to Nanjing and Hangzhou. Being surrounded and suppressed by the Qing soldiers is by no means the best place for our rebels to revolt."

"Since ancient times, those who can succeed in an uprising must have a stable base. This Taihu cottage is too small to become a base for our rebel army. It can only be used as a temporary springboard at best."

Xia Wanchun asked again: "Where is the base in Brother Mo's mind?"

Qian Mo laughed: "Xiao Yin can open the third bag I left you."

The third tip has only one sentence: If Taihu Lake cannot be defended, then retreat to Tianmu Mountain.

Tianmu three thousand feet, the first peak in the southeast. 4 million years ago, the vast ocean raised the peaks of the mountains in the violent crustal collision, and Tianmu Mountain, the "ancestor of mountains in western Zhejiang" standing at 30° north latitude across the ancient land of the south of the Yangtze River, rose proudly.

Tianmu Mountain originates from Kunlun and is located in the northwest of Zhejiang Province. It runs from northwest to southeast. "Tianmu".

Tianmu Mountain is located in the center of Hangzhou, Huzhou and Xuancheng.Among them, the "East Tianmu" is close to Hangzhou, and the "West Tianmu" is close to Yanzhou, guarding the upper reaches of the Fuchun River, and the strategic depth is extremely deep.

During the Five Dynasties, King Qian Liu of Wuyue and warlord Dong Chang raised troops from the "East Tianmu" and then controlled the land of Zhejiang and Zhejiang.And it is not far from Taihu Lake.After crossing the Fuchun River, you can contact the Eastern Zhejiang Rebels, such as Zhang Huangyan who is currently in Siming Mountain.

As a person of later generations, Qian Mo admired the great man's thoughts of "guerrilla warfare" and "base areas" from the bottom of his heart, and he fell in love with the base area of ​​Tianmu Mountain at a glance.

However, people in this era are still somewhat unacceptable.Abandoning the Susong area, which has a lot of money and grain, and plunging headlong into the Tianmu Mountains in northwestern Zhejiang, it seems a bit unreliable no matter how you look at it.

Qian Mo also explained: "Tianmu Mountain can be used as a long-term base to build. After all, the mountainous area is sparsely populated, and it also needs to transfer a large number of rebel families and invest a large amount of money and food. It will not be completed in a short period of time, but it must be prepared early!"

"The most urgent task right now is to integrate the rebel army, take advantage of the chaotic situation of the Qing army, quickly develop and expand the army, and save money and food."

Xia Wanchun also understood the limitations of the Taihu Rebel Army's development, and said: "The rebel army cottage on Shengui Island can only accommodate 2000 people. Our current development has reached the limit, and we need to open up a new 'base'."

"The unique geographical location of Tianmu Mountain is indeed a good choice. I believe in Brother Mo's vision!"

Qian Mo added: "I have already sent Mr. Gu to Fujian to express his intention to serve His Highness Jian Guo. At that time, everyone will be appointed by His Highness Jian Guo. My Taihu Rebel Army is also a regular Ming army."

"Now Zhang Mingzhen, Marquis of Dingxi in Chongming, and the rebels from the Lu faction in eastern Zhejiang are our foreign aid. Occupying Tianmu Mountain is also convenient for contacting with other rebels for planning important events."

"In addition, if Jin Shenghuan and Wang Deren in Jiangxi raise their troops next year, anyway, Tianmu Mountain is very close to Xuancheng and Huizhou, both of which are rich and prosperous, and our rebel army can also use this to develop westward and support Jiangxi.

Seeing that everyone was still hesitant, Xia Wanchun said: "Brother Mo is unparalleled in his strategy, always predicting the enemy first, my Taihu Rebel Army is only followed by Brother Mo."

With Xia Wanchun taking the lead in making a statement, the rest of the people expressed their opinions one after another: "We are willing to follow Mr. Qian's command, but Mr. Qian is the only one who follows!"

Seeing Xia Wanchun's help, Qian Mo no longer pretended to evade, and said: "Since you all love me so much, I, Qian Mo, will not refuse any more. I am Heshan!"

The crowd also shouted loudly: "Fight the Qing Dynasty and restore the Ming Dynasty, drive out the Tartars, restore our rivers and mountains!"

"Reverse the Qing Dynasty and restore the Ming Dynasty, drive out the Tartars, and restore our rivers and mountains!"

"Reverse the Qing Dynasty and restore the Ming Dynasty, drive out the Tartars, and restore our rivers and mountains!"
