Lin Xing followed Zhao Yuan back to the Marshal's Mansion. Along the way, Zhao Yuan also asked about the identity of the puppet girl beside him.
Lin Xing said that he found him after suppressing the evil spirit this time. Because he lacked the ability to take care of himself and had lost all his relatives, he took care of him with him.
Zhao Yuan only thought that the puppet girl was the other party's newly recruited maid. Although she was too beautiful, she was not the focus of finding Lin Xing this time.
"Lin Xing, now that the war is imminent, you and I have achieved military success with one shot and one sword. We should support each other even more in the future..."
During the conversation, Zhao Yuan had great intentions of winning over Lin Xing.
When Lin Xing came to the hall of the Marshal's Mansion, he found that Marshal Zhang, Zhu Fen, Song Yi and many other officers had already arrived.
Marshal Zhang was currently arranging his troops in front of a map of Dongya Prefecture.
After seeing Lin Xing coming, Marshal Zhang laughed loudly and said: "Lin Xing, you came back at the right time. I thought it would take you four or five days to go to Wangjia Town. I didn't expect you to come back so soon."
"Tell me, what is going on with that ghost?"
Lin Xing said: "It is the teachers of the Zhou family who secretly offer sacrifices to evil places and cultivate evil spirits..."
But Lin Xing took the initiative to stay.
Seeing the upright and serious look on the other party's face, Dashuai Zhang kept scratching his head, just feeling it was troublesome.
Zhao Yuan on the side snorted and said: "The scholars in the Provincial Administrative Office don't know how to fight at all, they just know how to push and push. Just listen to them and it's over..."
Zhang Dashuai looked at him calmly and said: "You don't need to explain, why should you explain? It's just to make some money. We are all our brothers. No matter how much money you make, I can turn a blind eye."
Then he said: "Now that the evil spirit has been suppressed, you can join us to clean up the evil cult."
Being swept by that blade-like gaze, Zhu Fen shrank his neck and didn't even dare to say anything.
Hearing his brother's cry, Mrs. Zhu smiled and said: "You don't know what Tiande is like? He never treats his own people badly. Just do something good for him this time, and I will help you to beg him later."
."
Accompanied by murderous intent, Zhu Fen was so frightened that he fell to his knees: "Sister, brother-in-law, I don't have it."
Listening to Lin Xing's eloquent talk, some people at the scene were surprised, some thought, and some disagreed.
Among them, Marshal Zhang personally took command of the first group, while Zhao Yuan and Song Yi each led the first group.
Zhang Dashuai looked at the contents of the letter and could not see any change in his expression. He just put down the letter after a moment and continued to explain the battle situation as if nothing had happened.
When he saw Lin Xing staying, Zhang Dashuai thought that the other party had something important to do. However, he found out that Lin Xing actually persuaded him not to burn people to death anymore, and also asked him to clean up military discipline and strengthen public security management...
Just listen to Zhang Dashuai say: "You made a lot of money, right? I heard that you turned several big families into cult believers, took over their property deeds, and sold other people's wives, daughters, and servants. You are really good at making money."
Looking at Lin Xing's leaving figure, Marshal Zhang rubbed his brows and said: "This boy is good at everything, but he is too young and has some benevolence as a woman. As for the unruly and stubborn people in Dongya Mansion, if we don't give him any treatment,
How to convince the public with thunderous tactics?"
…
He glanced at where everyone was standing or sitting, and ordered the servants beside him: "Wipe them all clean."
"When you drink their blood, you drink my blood."
Zhang Dashuai shouted coldly: "I, Zhang Tiande, don't have a rich and famous family background, and secondly, I don't have a first-rate teacher from the Nine Sects. What can I rely on?"
Upon hearing this assignment, Zhu Fen was surprised and said: "Brother-in-law!"
"But you should never, never, should not drink the blood of soldiers under my command."
Zhu Fen's face turned red, and he pointed at himself angrily, and then at Lin Xing: "Shall I assist him?"
Dashuai Zhang frowned and glanced at him, his cold eyes like a knife blade passing through him.
Not long after, in a certain courtyard of the Marshal's Mansion.
Without giving the other party a chance to continue, Zhang Dashuai said coldly: "You did a really good job this time when you went out to suppress the rioters."
The meeting ended in the blink of an eye, and everyone dispersed after understanding their respective tasks.
"Sister! Why do you always ask us to beg him?" Zhu Fen said angrily: "As for Zhang Tiande, a third-generation fool, if our Zhu family hadn't sold iron to him to buy guns and recruit people, and also donated his official status to him in the government office
, can he be where he is today?"
"Commander, this is a letter from the Dongjiang Provincial Administrative Office."
Zhu Fen quickly explained: "Brother-in-law, listen to me..."
Zhang Dashuai said calmly: "So didn't I ask you to assist Lin Xing and help him command?"
After Zhu Fen left, a blush flashed across Dashuai Zhang's cheeks, as if the injury in his body had affected him again, but he was soon suppressed again.
After hearing these words, the scene fell silent for an instant, and everyone watched quietly as Marshal Zhang took the letter.
Halfway through the story, a bodyguard suddenly ran in.
Lin Xing will lead the team again, and will be assisted by Zhu Fen as his adjutant.
"I'll give you one day to make up for all the arrears of military pay before the army sets off."
Zhu Fen's body trembled, he swallowed and said: "Commander, the bastards under my command have been spoiled by me, and they are all unruly. I'm afraid it will be difficult to command them under Brother Lin."
Lin Xing's eyes flashed with curiosity, and he asked Zhao Yuan in a low voice: "This Dongjiang Provincial Administrative Office..."
"It turns out that in the past few years, his aunt has married eight people, and now she wants to relinquish my military power. Is there such a thing as burning a bridge..."
Sitting in front of Zhu Fen was a middle-aged woman with a graceful figure and a round face. She was none other than Marshal Zhang's wife, Mrs. Zhu.
Finally, Marshal Zhang sighed: "I originally regarded the theory of evil spirits as just a rumor from the countryside, not worthy of belief. I never thought it really existed in this world."
Zhu Fen just showed a smile, but when he heard Dashuai Zhang's next words, he felt as if he was being blown by a gust of wind, and cold sweat broke out on his back.
"It's just that it seems that the danger of evil is still not as great as the human heart."
Zhu Fen knelt on the ground and cried to a woman: "Sister, how old am I? How many years have I been fighting with Zhang Tiande? Now he actually wants me to assist that little brat Lin Xing? He is clearly planning to quit.
My military power is over!"
But the other party was his general after all, and he didn't want to argue with him at this critical moment, so he casually agreed and let Lin Xing leave.
Now that the war is imminent, he has no intention of doing any of this.
Marshal Zhang tilted his head and looked at him, with a hint of impatience in his eyes: "What? Are you going to disobey my military order?"
According to Zhang Dashuai's plan, the troops will be divided into four groups, each of which will sweep away several evil forces in Dongya Mansion, and finally meet in Shanghe County.
Marshal Zhang glanced at the two of them: "Both of you, listen to me attentively."
He pointed outside the hall in the direction of the military camp and drank: "Over the years, I have relied on the loyalty of my brothers, on the sacrifice of my soldiers, and on the territory they and I have built inch by inch."
Next, Dashuai Zhang focused on the arrangements of each department.
The momentum of a mountain of corpses and a sea of blood surged out of Dashuai Zhang's body, as if knives were placed on Zhu Fen's neck, blocking what he wanted to say next.
After that, only Zhu Fen and Dashuai were left in the hall.
Zhu Fen said in a low voice: "That's right, brother-in-law, I'm just worried that Lin Xing is too young and inexperienced, and he still doesn't know the evil cult witch. If the time comes, if you become soft-hearted on the battlefield, your career will be ruined..."
After listening to what her brother said, Mrs. Zhu's face seemed to gradually turn ugly.
Looking at her brother, whom she had loved since childhood, Zhu scolded: "Don't always speak ill of your brother-in-law in front of me. Your brother-in-law has told me all those things about you. You know what he hates most, but you still do this."
What kind of thing?"
"You do your best this time and strive for meritorious service, so that I can speak for you."
After being scolded, Zhu Fen left the small courtyard with an annoyed look on his face, and there seemed to be a trace of strong unwillingness in his eyes.
