Chapter 138: A dignified iron-blooded man, he should admit it, he has to be cowardly
Lin Ziran sent out three letters one after another, saying that the surrounding bandits were serious and that he was ready to suppress bandits and so on.
This bandit suppression has different meanings in the eyes of different people, and the above three letters all believe that Lin Ziran's bandit suppression is just an excuse, and the real purpose is not to be implicated in the war between the Cheng family and the Jian family.
But it is estimated that no one would have thought that although Lin Ziran's suppression of bandits was an excuse, he planned to fish in troubled waters and occupy the surrounding territory first.
Anyway, Lin Ziran's thoughts are actually different from many contemporary feudal towns.
He didn't want to be a junior brother to others at all, he wanted to be the boss!
The biggest boss!
Although his strength is very weak now, his ambition is great.
This is something that few people can guess, even the henchmen Luo Mazi, Scar and others around them don't think about this aspect at all.
Different ideas make things different.
After all, it is difficult for a normal person to guess what a madman thinks.
In such a situation, he still wants to take the opportunity to grab the territory, which seems to outsiders to be the idea of a madman.
But Lin Ziran is not crazy, he knows that the risk is very high, but this risk is controllable.
He's all ready to retreat.
Once someone, for example, Feng Haozhong was unhappy with him taking the opportunity to grab the land and sent troops out to kill him, then Lin Ziran didn't say a word, immediately confessed, and turned the land grabbing into a real bandit.
If the follow-up Jian family or the Cheng family wins, they are not happy with Lin Ziran taking the opportunity to grab the territory, and they have to send a large army to attack him Lin Ziran, and Lin Ziran's own strength will be insufficient at that time.
Then Lin Ziran will immediately say nothing and admit it directly!
A dignified iron-blooded man, he should admit it, so as not to lose his heroic nature.
Therefore, before taking actual action, in fact, Lin Ziran was ready to admit it directly when the time came!
How to say it, it's a big deal to be busy in vain, and they won't really lose anything, so it's hard to admit that they are all cowardly, and they have to transfer thousands of troops to fight with themselves.
They have no scruples about being a small feudal town, but they have a lot of scruples about being a large feudal town.
provoked him Lin Ziran, turned around and went to their opponents, and even directly joined the Guang'an army.
You know, the Guang'an Army also sent people to contact him and try to win him over.
Lin Ziran quickly made a decision and took action, but it didn't mean that he was rash, let alone impulsive.
In fact, he had even thought of several ways to retreat in advance.
Just like Luo Mazi said, think about defeat before thinking about victory.
In Lin Ziran's view, no matter how bad the consequences are, they can't get there, but once they succeed, the benefits are great.
When Lin Ziran was preparing to suppress the bandits, Jian Liangzhi and Cheng Hongbin's replies also arrived one after another, and the content of the letters was also very similar.
However, the person sent by Feng Haozhong, the commander of the Third Division, made Lin Ziran interested.
The identity of the person sent by Feng Haozhong is not simple, he is not the regiment commander or brigade commander within the Third Division, but his adjutant Jiang Xiaqing.
This Jiang Xiaqing is estimated to be about thirty years old, and the military lord is just a doctor, but many people, including Lin Ziran, will not despise him.
Because this person is Feng Haozhong's real confidant.
Although Jiang Xiaqing was a soldier, he did not come over in a military uniform, but instead wore a robe and casual clothes, and he also held a folding fan in his hand, looking like a literati.
When he was sitting opposite Lin Ziran, this person also looked light-hearted, and when he saw it, he wanted Lin Ziran to directly take out a gun and shoot him!
It's too pretending!
After a few simple chats between the two, Jiang Xiaqing took the lead in getting to the point:
"Lin Yingguan, this time Jiang came over, in fact, there is nothing to do, the main thing is to convey a few words to my family!"
Lin Ziran said: "Oh, I don't know what Lord Feng commands? ”
Jiang Xiaqing said: "My lord said that since the surrounding bandits are serious, and Lin Yingguan, you have the heart to protect the territory and the people, you should do a good job of suppressing the bandits, and give the people nearby a good future!" ”
Lin Ziran said: "Please also ask Adjutant Jiang to reply to Lord Feng, I, Lin Ziran, will definitely wipe out the surrounding bandits, and I will no longer have high hopes for adults!" ”
After all, Lin Ziran felt that the exercise should be a full set, so he said: "This, that is, there is a shortage of military pay and ammunition, and the cost of suppressing bandits is estimated to be not small, I don't know if the division headquarters can ...... it."
Lin Ziran naturally wouldn't really pay for any food and ammunition, but he knew that the Third Division was also poor now, and he hadn't been paid for several months.
But the grievance should still be complained, not to ask for something, but to show weakness.
At this time, Jiang Xiaqing said: "As for the military needs, according to reason, Lin Yingguan suppresses bandits for the people, and our third division also has to support it, but it is not in line with the rules!" ”
"Officer Lin Ying, your patrol battalion, after all, is only a patrol battalion, and the military supplies are supplied by the locality, but it is not good for our third division to directly distribute military supplies across the locality."
Lin Ziran didn't care when he heard it, anyway, he didn't expect to ask for anything, it was just a drill.
But Jiang Xiaqing's next sentence made him interested!
I only listened to Jiang Xiaqing: "However, if your patrol battalion belongs to our third division, and you have the number of the regular army, then this military supply can be discussed!" ”
The number of the regular army? Included in the 3rd Division?
What does Feng Haozhong want to do?
Is it possible to win yourself over as well?
Damn, when did you become so popular, and the people around you came over one after another to woo you?
Lin Ziran has never overestimated or underestimated himself, he knows his strength very well.
The 2,000 patrol battalion seems to be a lot of people, but the actual combat effectiveness is just like that, if it really starts, unless it is a special preset battlefield such as defense and ambush operations, otherwise the combat effectiveness is worrying.
Therefore, Lin Ziran knows that he has a certain strength, but his current strength has not yet reached the point where he needs all parties to come over and win him over.
Cheng Hongbin and Jian Liangzhi came to woo him, and that was because of the battle between the Sixth Brigade and the Provisional Brigade.
The people from Guang'an recruited him purely to flank the third division of Chongguangcheng in front and rear.
But why did Feng Haozhong win him over?
With doubts, Lin Ziran said: "The number of the regular army, what is this?" ”
Jiang Xiaqing didn't answer immediately, but took a sip of tea and moistened his throat before continuing: "My lord said, now the northern defense line is in short supply, and it is difficult to rely on the existing troops, and the rear is in chaos again, in order to ensure the safety of the rear, so I think of transferring the surrounding patrol battalions to form a supplementary brigade to control and guard the strategic security of the rear!" ”
As he spoke, he put down his teacup and said in a more serious tone for the first time: "And the Qingshan Patrol Battalion, both in terms of strength and equipment, is relatively complete, and it can just be directly reorganized into this supplementary brigade." ”
"I don't know if Lord Lin is willing to succumb to the position of brigade commander here?"
