"Official Hong Xi?" Li Guodong heard Ye Busuo's report and jumped up like a spring was installed under his butt, "Let's go and see those little monks." Just as the hammer was hesitating about how to deal with these five little monks, a long shout came from outside: "Duke Chu is here!"

Tiehai and a group of Yebukukan knelt down quickly: "The last general (under) welcomes the Duke!"

Li Guodong walked in and made a gesture to Ye Bushang and all of them got up. He saw the five young monks tied up at a glance, so he said, "Iron Hammer, they are all children."

"The princess of the country, although they are children, these little thieves are all detailed works by rebels, and their martial arts are not bad." Tie Hammer replied.

"Official Hong Xi, Cai Dezhong, Ma Chaoxing, Fang Dahong, Li Shikai, but are you?" Li Guodong walked to Hong Xiguan and the others with a smile and asked.

"Dog official! Don't be hypocritical! You work hard for the tyrant monarch in the Wudao! Don't try to bribe us!" Hong Xiguan roared.

Li Guodong laughed: "Dear young heroes, you are all real men! Since you don't want to follow me, Li will not force others. Come on, please relax them quickly!"

Several personal soldiers walked into the tent and cut off the ropes on Hong Xiguan and the others.

Hong Xiguan shouted: "Dog official, don't think that you loosen your ties to us, we will surrender to you!"

"I didn't let you surrender. You can leave, but the drawings you drew must be left." Li Guodong said with a smile.

After all, the Five Shaolin Ancestors were five anti-Qing heroes in real history, so Li Guodong naturally could not kill them, so he simply let them go.

Tie Hammer said: "Lord, but these little guys have good martial arts skills. If they give them time, they will be masters of martial arts in the future! Let them go, there will be endless troubles! If these five people practice martial arts in the future, Tie Hammer is probably not their opponent! As the saying goes, it is easy to avoid hidden arrows and cannot be prevented. If the traitor asks them to assassinate you, what should we do?"

"Not bad! Iron Hammer, since I dare to let them go, it's because they are all loyal and righteous men. I have kindness to them today. Will they repay their kindness to assassinate Li in the future?" Li Guodong said with a confident smile.

Tiehai had no choice but to hand over the drawings drawn by Hong Xiguan and the others to Li Guodong, and then ordered Ye Bushang not to stop Hong Xiguan and the others, and let them walk out of the military camp in a swagger.

The five Shaolin ancestors and the other five were originally five young monks from Nan Shaolin. Because they followed their master Cai Jiuyi to Guangdong, Cai Jiuyi was recognized by an officer and was invited by the rebels to be an officer. His five disciples were also recruited by the rebels to join the army.

After Hong Xiguan and his friends joined the rebels, under the brainwashing effect of the rebel generals, they really regarded Chongzhen as the foolish monarch. Li Guodong was the number one thug under the foolish monarch. The foolish monarch wanted to send troops to attack Guangdong and harm the people of Guangdong. Therefore, the Guangdong people fought for their own survival. If the foolish monarch was invaded to Guangdong, the people would be in trouble.

Seeing that these five young monks were very skilled in martial arts and agile, the rebels sent them to southern Jiangxi to spy on military information. Who knew that the Huai Army was extremely vigilant at night, so the five brothers were caught.

Fortunately, Li Guodong knew history and knew that the five of them were heroes of the Qing Dynasty, so he let them go.

After walking out of the Huai Army camp, Hong Xiguan said, "I think the Duke of Chu is not as bad as they said."

Cai Dezhong said: "I heard from Master that Duke of Chu is a hero who fights against the Tartars, but he is loyal to the foolish monarch. But this person gives people a good feeling."

"The Duke of Chu is good, but the tyrant monarch is too bad. If the Duke of Chu's army enters Guangdong, I am afraid that the people of Guangdong will suffer." Fang Dahong said.

"I think the Duke of Chu will definitely not indulge the army to harm the people. I heard that many ordinary people in the north have established new words for him. How many people he saved when the Tartars invaded the Central Plains several times?" Hong Xiguan shook his head and said.

"The Duke of Chu is a good person, but the tyrant is above him. The tyrant gives him an imperial edict. How can he disobey? By the way, when we were caught in their promise, we saw many Jinyiwei and Dongchang men inside! If those eagle claw grandsons were allowed to enter Guangdong, I am afraid that many people in Guangdong will be in trouble!" Fang Dahong said.

Ma Chaoxing asked: "Dear brothers, what should we do now? We have not completed the task yet."

"There is no way to complete it now. Those hawks and dogs have more erotic noses than dogs." Cai Dezhong said.

"If it's not finished, what should we do? Just go back like this? Will it be dealt with by their military law?" Li Shikai asked worriedly.

"Dear brothers, why don't we run away? We have been a monk in Nan Shaolin, why should we work hard for the Guangdong army? Why should we go back to Fujian?" Ma Chaoxing said.

Cai Dezhong retorted: "What if we run away, what will happen to our master? Our master is still in their hands!"

"Forget it, let's tell the truth when we go back, saying that we were caught by the officers and soldiers. Seeing that we were still children, the officers and soldiers let us go." Hong Xi said.

The fifth ancestor of Shaolin left Gannan and ran back to Guangdong. After returning to Guangdong, they were punished by the rebels because they did not complete the task. However, that was later. When Li Guodong and his friends passed the watershed, the fifth ancestor of Shaolin was still on their way back to Huizhou.

On the mountain road leading from Xuxi to Xuwu River, the wooden plank road has been completed. The navy is about to go ashore and cross the watershed to Xuwu River. During this period, Tiehammer and his night-breaking business are even more afraid to neglect, and they are more vigilant.

"Brothers, let me!" Liu Laogen shook the flag and shouted.

"One, two, one! One, two, one!" Hundreds of engineers shouted at the labor horn panting, and were dragging cables on their shoulders, struggling to drag a centipede clutch to the shore. The cannons on the ship had been removed, ammunition and cargo had been cleared, leaving only an empty ship, which had reduced a lot of weight.

On the beach on the shore, there were logs all over the ground, arranged into a passage. After the centipede clutch was pulled ashore, the boat was mounted on the log. Then the engineer soldiers pulled the boat and pulled it to a slope made of wooden boards.

The boat was pulled up the slope, and someone in front of him struggled to lift the bottom of the boat, pushed the boat onto a huge wooden rack, and then tied it with ropes.

After the first warship was put into the cart, someone drove the animals, trapped the cars, and then pulled them forward along the wooden plank road. Since the ground was covered with wooden boards, the friction was reduced, it was not very difficult to walk on the wooden plank road, and it was relatively easy to walk on the flat ground. However, it was more laborious when going uphill and downhill. When going uphill, not only did you have to drive away the animals, but you even had to help push them up. When going downhill, someone needed to hold them behind them to avoid the speed of the car too fast.

Warships after warships were towed ashore, loaded onto large vans, and then pulled away.

More than fifty miles of mountain road, and there were fully armed soldiers of the Huai Army Army's Land Division on both sides of the wooden plank road to protect it along the way. Li Guodong protected this ship transport road without any leakage, leaving no chance for the rebels to attack.

After the ship was sent to the bank of Xunwu River, the engineer soldiers loosened the ropes, then put the ship down the cart along a wooden slope, and then slowly pushed the ship into the water along the passage made of logs. In this way, the first warship passed the watershed and entered the Pearl River water system.

After seven days and seven nights of hard work, Shi Lang's Huai Army Navy fleet was finally transported to Xunwu River.

"Lord, there are large warships of rebels in Huizhou, but all we can come here are small boats. Can we fight water wars?" Luo Mingshou asked worriedly.
