Chapter 260: A Difficult Choice

As soon as Guo Zhiyuan said this, Shen Yourong knew that what Guo Zhiyuan said was true, Liu Ruosi was a rare general in the Fujian Navy who could lead troops to fight, Shen Yourong was also angry and regretful when he learned that Liu Ruosi participated in the rebellion, since Liu Ruosi had surrendered to Guo Zhiyuan, the main force of the rebel army must be over, but he still asked in disbelief: "How did you do it?" ……”

Guo Zhiyuan is waiting for Shen Yourong's words, only if he successfully arouses Shen Yourong's interest, he can persuade Shen Yourong to send troops, and immediately his eyebrows fluttered and he told how he plotted against Liu Ruosi and how to set up a suspicious plan to defeat the rebels, Shen Yourong and Chen Di are both people who know the soldiers, so naturally they can see through, Chen Di excitedly gave Guo Zhiyuan a thumbs up and said: "Wonderful! Lord Guo is brave and strategic, courageous, and defeated 20,000 rebels with 2,000 soldiers, which is really an unprecedented miracle. ……”

Shen Yourong does not seek to fly Huang Tengda in his life, he only likes to lead troops to fight, he is a complete "military idiot", listening to Guo Zhiyuan talk about the defeat of the rebels, he is also itchy, he can't personally command this battle, he is so excited that he keeps grinding his fists and palms, thinking of his arrogant attitude towards Guo Zhiyuan before, he is a little embarrassed, although he has an arrogant personality, but he still admires people with real skills, and bowed to Guo Zhiyuan with a red face and said: "Lord Guo, the adult is talented, Shen is ashamed of himself, he was so neglectful to the adult before, please forgive the adult!" ……”

Guo Zhiyuan saw that Shen Yourong's attitude had changed, and he knew that his strategy had worked, and he was overjoyed, what he had to do now was to shorten the distance between him and Shen Yourong as much as possible, so that Shen Yourong could be used by him, and hurriedly waved his hand and laughed: "General Shen said this and saw the outside, how can Guo compare with General Shen, speaking of which, I can defeat the rebels this time also has the credit of General Shen!" ……”

Shen Yourong raised his eyebrows when he heard this, and asked in surprise, "Oh, how do you say this?" ……”

Guo Zhiyuan laughed and said: "I can persuade Liu Ruosi to defect because of General Shen's prestige, and it was General Shen's daughter --- Miss Shen who led the troops to defeat the rebels yesterday!" ……”

Hearing Guo Zhiyuan mention Shen Junrong, Shen Yourong was stunned for a moment, with a happy look in his eyes, and he rubbed his palms excitedly and said incoherently: "Ah, Rong'er! You said that it was Rong'er who led the troops to defeat the rebels yesterday?! This girl, this girl......"

At this time, Shen Yourong is no longer a majestic general, but a kind father, so he will show the happy expression of a parent when he hears that his children are out, but he doesn't know what happened, so that the relationship between Shen Yourong and Shen Junrong's father and daughter is so bad, although Guo Zhiyuan wants to reconcile the father-daughter relationship between Shen Yourong and Shen Junrong, but this is obviously not a good time, the purpose of his coming today is to persuade Shen Yourong to send troops, but he can't lose a big one because of a small loss, he smiled and said: "The tiger general has no dog girl, Miss Shen has helped Guo a lot! ……”

Shen Yourong sighed and arched his hand to Guo Zhiyuan: "The little girl is rebellious, Shen has no way to teach her daughter, so she can only let it go, and thank you Lord Guo for taking care of the little girl, if he has a place for Shen in the future, Shen will definitely help him......"

Guo Zhiyuan was waiting for Shen Yourong's words, so he naturally hurriedly climbed up the pole and said with a smile: "It's really a coincidence, right now Guo wants to ask General Shen for help!" ……”

Shen Yourong was originally a kind word, but he didn't expect Guo Zhiyuan to be really polite, and raised his eyebrows: "What's the matter?" As long as Shen is within his ability, he will not refuse! ……”

Guo Zhiyuan was secretly overjoyed, and hurriedly said: "As long as General Shen is willing to help, this matter will definitely be successful!" It has now been ascertained that Zhao Bingjian and the rest of the troops have fled to Dongfan, and Guo has only five warships under his command, and he does not know anything about the situation in Dongfan, General Shen had previously defeated the Japanese at sea and recovered Dongfan, so Guo wanted to ask General Shen to send troops to help......"

"You're going to attack Dongfan?" Shen Yourong frowned when he heard this, although he seemed to have a rough temperament, but in fact, his mind was very delicate, leading troops to quell the rebellion was originally an internal matter for him, Guo Zhiyuan could completely let him send troops through normal procedures, but now Guo Zhiyuan came to visit him in his private name, there are articles here, most of which involve the contradictions between Guo Zhiyuan and Xu Xueju, he didn't want to get involved in the contradictions between Guo Zhiyuan and Xu Xueju, so he glanced at Guo Zhiyuan deeply, and muttered: "It is incumbent on Shen to clean up the remnants of the rebels, It's just that I don't know if Lord Guo has a warrant from the Governor, if there is no warrant from the Governor, Shen can't help! ……”

Guo Zhiyuan chuckled in his heart, Shen Yourong said this is actually equivalent to a disguised refusal, if he can get Xu Xueju's warrant, then he still talks about a fart! I had to continue to fight with some embarrassment: "General Shen, you also know that the soldiers are very fast, if Zhao Bingjian and the rest of the troops are allowed to gain a firm foothold in Dongfan, it will be difficult to exterminate them, so when this official comes, he has not had time to contact the governor, and naturally he can't get a warrant from the governor......

Shen Yourong is not so easy to fool, his eyes flashed, and he looked at Guo Zhiyuan with a smile and said: "Lord Guo, your reason is a bit far-fetched, the speed of the soldiers is good, but they don't care about the time of a day or two, don't say secret words in front of the Ming people, let's be open and honest, you should be in such a hurry to attack Dongfan not only to quell the rebellion, right?" Don't you want to turn Dongfan into your Penghu Island? ……”

Guo Zhiyuan's heart jumped suddenly, he really can't underestimate the ancients, Shen Yourong can become a generation of famous generals, his vision is indeed not ordinary keenness, and he suddenly saw through his true intentions, now Guo Zhiyuan will be embarrassed, if he chooses to be honest, it is equivalent to admitting to Shen Yourong that he has ambitions, and he can't predict what the consequences will be, because with Shen Yourong's influence in Fujian, once he becomes wary of Guo Zhiyuan's ambitions, it will inevitably bring great resistance to Guo Zhiyuan's future ambitions.

And if he chooses to continue to cover up, it will definitely make Shen Yourong feel that he is a person with a bad mouth, and the distance between him and Shen Yourong will be shortened again, and it will be basically impossible for him to get Shen Yourong's help. No matter how he chooses, Shen Yourong's words have forced him to the point of being poor, either to be a friend or an enemy, the problem is that his understanding of Shen Yourong is limited to those records in history, in fact, he doesn't really know Shen Yourong, and he can't make judgments based on historical records alone.
