In Ding Jiren's eyes, Lin Ziran is not a decent gentleman.

Gentlemen don't use their mouths and hands, but Lin Ziran uses knives and guns at every turn.

He went back and forth twice, and both times he was pointed at gunpoint and almost didn't come back alive.

He was afraid that if he went again, it would be difficult for him to come back alive.

But the person who delivered the order shook his head and said, "No! ”

After receiving the letter, Li Kun, commander of the Second Army of Guang'an, prepared to send Ding Jiren on a trip.

After Feng Haozhong received Lin Ziran's letter, he glanced at it a few times, and then handed it to his henchman adjutant Jiang Xiaqing and said, "You say, is it possible for us to pull him over?" It's a few thousand soldiers and horses, even if the strength is a little worse, but it can play a certain role! ”

Jiang Xiaqing shook his head: "It's very unlikely, I've met this person a few times, and I've sent someone to collect some information about him, this person is very cautious, and he doesn't care much about face." ”

"Before, the Sixth Brigade and the Provisional Brigade chased south, and he was not the slightest bit tempted to face the pull of the two families, when the Sixth Brigade and the Provisional Brigade were fighting in Sanyang Town, Lin Ziran happened to lead the army to Sanyang Town, but as soon as he found out that there was a war in front, he immediately led the army to withdraw, well, it is rumored that he said that the weather was too hot and not suitable for war!"

"Too hot? Ha ha! After Feng Haozhong heard this, he couldn't help laughing: "This Lin Ziran's face is really thick enough, and he dares to use this reason." ”

Jiang Xiaqing said: "This person is cautious and shameless, but according to his humble position, he is not only a slippery head, but also a slippery head who is greedy for life and afraid of death, and will not easily put himself in danger." ”

"Now that the situation is so chaotic, it is impossible for him not to see the risks, and it is extremely unlikely that he will be pulled over in this situation."

Feng Haozhong said: "Even so, but his thousands of people still have some use, you think about it, give him a letter back, let him continue to guard Lianguan County, and then find a way to let him enter Pingdan County." ”

"Pindan?" Jiang Xiaqing was puzzled.

Feng Haozhong said: "Pingdan County produces coal, and with the tax on coal, it can also enter the top three in my Luo'an County, will he be tempted by such a good place?" ”

"As long as he is tempted, he will find a way to go west, and when the time comes, he will be able to contain the people of Guang'an, and he can also put some pressure on Zhao Song, who has been hiding in the northwest."

Jiang Xia Qingdao: "It's just that with his character, even if he is tempted, he doesn't dare to cross the river and go west!" ”

Feng Haozhong smiled: "He is an ambitious person, as long as there is a suitable opportunity, I am not afraid that he will not go west." ”

"I'll give him this opportunity!"

"If he marches into Pindan, then the situation will be interesting!"

In the city of Luo'an County, after receiving the letter, Jian Liangzhi found his father: "Father, this Lin Ziran is estimated to have suffered a lot of losses, and now he is under pressure and wants to join us, what should we do?" ”

Jian Minggang had never been in contact with him, although he had heard of Lin Ziran, but he was still relatively unfamiliar in general, and immediately said to Jian Liangzhi, the eldest son he valued the most: "Tell me about this person carefully!" ”

Jian Liangzhi immediately told him about several contacts with Lin Ziran, and after listening, Jian Minggang said: "This is a character, and it has taken less than a year to add up before and after, but it has already pulled out thousands of people and gained a firm foothold in Lianguan County." ”

Jian Liangzhi also thought the same: "Yes, there are rumors in the outside world that Lin Ziran is greedy for life and afraid of death, and he cowers, but in the eyes of the child, this person is a capable and ambitious person, and the child has tried to draw him to our side several times, but he has refused!" ”

Jian Minggang said: "Refused? So why do you think he refused? ”

Jian Liangzhi said: "The child thinks he is cautious, but now that the situation in our Luo An is chaotic, with his character, he will not easily get involved in it!" ”

At this time, Jian Minggang shook his head slightly: "You, you are still too young, he is not cautious, but the price you offered is not high enough!" ”

Jian Liangzhi was puzzled: "Isn't it high enough?" When there were only more than 1,000 people under his hands, the child had already promised to give him hundreds of thousands plus a county guard. ”

Jian Minggang said: "That's why the price is not high enough!" ”

"If it is as expected by the father, this man is not cautious, let alone afraid of the current chaos, but does not see the rabbit and does not scatter the eagle, there is no real benefit, and he does not want to take risks!"

"But if the benefits are big enough!"

When Jian Minggang said this, he pondered for a few seconds before he said, "Go and persuade him again." ”

Jian Liangzhi said: "What are the conditions?" ”

Jian Minggang stood up: "Tell him that as long as he is willing to lead the army south and join our army to fight with us, I will give him the three counties in the north of Luo'an, and give him another division of equipment, plus 500,000 cash." In the future, he can even be given a county guard of Guang'an County. ”

Hearing this, Jian Liangzhi couldn't sit still: "Father, won't this be too ......?"

Before he finished speaking, Jian Minggang interrupted him: "Even if he is unwilling to immediately lead the army south to fight, as long as he stabilizes the situation in Lianguan County and does not interfere in the external situation, he will also give 100,000 cash, and he can also give some guns and ammunition as appropriate." ”

These words made Jian Liangzhi even more surprised.

"Father's ......"

Jian Minggang looked back at the eldest son he valued the most, and showed a cautious look: "You have to remember that if you want to do great things, you must let your subordinates willingly surround you and work together to do things together!" ”

"It's not coercion, it's a willing struggle with you!"

"If you're a petty kid yourself, how can you expect your subordinates to fight to the death for you?"

"Our family can't eat this pot of meat in Luo'an County, so we want to eat the most delicious meat, and a little bit of residual soup and bones can be shared with our subordinates!"

Jian Minggang's words made Jian Liangzhi ponder!

At this time, Jian Minggang said: "The situation is not good now, and we urgently need new forces." ”

"If Lin Ziran dares to lead the army south to join us, it is enough to greatly increase our chances of winning, if we win, then what we get is the entire Luo'an County, so why not give him three counties!"

Jian Liangzhi finally nodded at this time: "Father's meaning, the child understands, and tomorrow the child will personally go to Lianguan County." ”

Jian Minggang didn't speak, but nodded: "Dress up in disguise, be careful!" ”

After some negotiation between the father and son of the Jian family, Jian Liangzhi disguised himself the next day and mixed into a small private passenger ship heading north to Lianguan County.

And Zhao Song in the northwest region also received a letter from Lin Ziran.

After receiving Lin Ziran's letter, Zhao Song read it several times, and finally stood in front of the window and pondered!
