"Pei Xiangdong, I now order you to be the main general, Guo Jinarc and Wei Chongan as auxiliaries, leading three hundred and fifty soldiers to set off this afternoon, Fang Butong and Ding Sanlin as the vanguard, looking for the White Lotus Sect around Lingnan, adopting raiding and guerrilla strategies, and striving to drag down and eliminate the living force of the White Lotus Sect. Pen ~ Fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info "Shen Yan is definitely not a person who sits idly by, if you want to successfully exercise the Great Xia Royal Army, you can't stay in Lingnan and wait for the enemy's backup, but take the initiative to attack, as long as it is not a head-to-head confrontation, the Great Xia Royal Army will definitely be able to successfully destroy the enemy's living force."

"Please rest assured that his subordinates will not disappoint Mr. Qian's expectations." Pei Xiangdong glanced at Wei Chongan and Guo Jinarc, his eyes were full of confidence, and at the same time, he also understood the intention of Shen Yan's arrangement, Wei Chongan was brave, Guo Jinarc was sophisticated, and he was in the middle and coordinated, and the trio could be described as a golden partner.

"Qin Huai'an, Zhu Mingxuan, the two of you each select fifty elite soldiers from your department, and prepare to select the White Lotus Sect soldiers who are suitable and willing to join the Great Xia Royal Army from these captives, strengthen our strength, and take advantage of this free time stationed in Lingnan to strive to train them into basically qualified soldiers." Shen Yan pondered for a moment, a hearty smile appeared on Junlang's face, and he said slowly to Qin Huai'an and Zhu Mingxuan.

"Mr. Qian, are you going to pick soldiers from among them?" Hearing Shen Yan's order at first glance, Qin Huai'an glanced at Zhu Mingxuan with a strong look of surprise, if Shen Yan's approach is not a problem in wartime, but the key is that it is not wartime, and accepting prisoners will definitely be suspicious of his superiors.

"I know what you are worried about and what you want to express, but it is imperative for the Great Xia Royal Army to expand its army." Shen Yan's bright eyes revealed a hint of perseverance and affirmation, when the Great Xia Royal Army was created, Shen Yan had a plan in his heart, it would definitely not be just an army of five hundred people, but at that time, Shen Yan was not sure whether he could gain a firm foothold in the Great Xia Royal Army, and secondly, he didn't know what kind of strength the Great Xia Royal Army could achieve.

However, after a night attack on the valley last night, Shen Yan already had a new understanding of Pei Xiangdong and the others, and the Great Xia Royal Army, plus the fact that he had successfully captured so many White Lotus Sect soldiers, if he let them go, it would cause huge risks, and these factors combined to make Shen Yan decide to absorb troops from the White Lotus Sect soldiers.

"Mr. Qian, my subordinates know that the expansion of the army is inevitable, but why don't you wait to return to Jinling and have the emperor order the military department and the military, wouldn't it be much safer." Even though Shen Yan expressed his opinion, Zhu Mingxuan still expressed his concept in good faith.

"The people sent by the Ministry of War and the military, will you believe and dare to use them?" Hearing Zhu Mingxuan's point of view, the corners of Shen Yan's mouth smiled slightly.

"However, the risk of accommodating thieves is no less than after returning to Jinling." A hint of worry flashed in Zhu Mingxuan's eyes.

"Don't worry, all the risks and responsibilities are handed over to me to deal with, I just need you to be more thoughtful when choosing soldiers, I only have one request, you must choose honest and faithful, as for those who are slippery, or those who are loyal to the White Lotus Sect, they don't want to, our principle is that we would rather choose less, not choose, and not take this risk." A confident smile appeared on Shen Yan's face, his eyes were full of encouragement, and he glanced at Zhu Mingxuan and the others.

"Since President Qian has decided, his subordinates will receive the order." Zhu Mingxuan and Qin Huai'an glanced at each other, nodded slightly, and then replied loudly.

"Brother Shen, if you do this, will you be hated by the emperor after returning to Jinling?" After Shen Yan made all the arrangements, Gao Yong sealed the acupoint of the man in military uniform, handed the other party over to Ding Sanlin and others to take care of, and asked quietly while Shen Yan was thinking alone.

"Boss Gao, to be honest, I know the risks brought by this, but there are some things that must be done, and I can't wait, I will also truthfully hand over to the emperor what happened in Lingnan, including the idea of expanding the army, in this matter, I also need you to report the matter here to the emperor through your channels, plus the excerpt of the eighteen princes, I think the emperor will be able to think wisely of my hardships and intentions, so as to forgive me for my behavior of cutting first and then playing." Hearing Gao Yong's kind persuasion, a helpless smile appeared on the corner of Shen Yan's mouth.

Shen Yan knows very well in his heart the way of being a minister, and he knows how to protect himself wisely, but if he wants to better protect the people he cares about, he can't say it with his mouth, but he must continue to grow his strength, as long as he always puts the emperor in the first place in his heart, does not violate the emperor's bottom line, and with the emperor's wisdom and generosity, he will definitely forgive his decision.

Besides, the expansion of the Great Xia Royal Army is not only for himself, but also for the emperor, as long as he succeeds in building the Great Xia Royal Army into a real lion, the emperor will definitely not blame himself, but will secretly encourage himself. The crux of the matter is still the battle of Jinling, as long as the Great Xia Royal Army successfully wins the elite of Jinling, all this is nothing.

"Since you have a complete calculation in your heart, then I won't say anything more, it's just that you need what information I want to reveal to the emperor, as long as it doesn't violate the principle, I will not stand idly by to help you." Gao Yong didn't know Shen Yan's true thoughts about expanding the army, and said indifferently in the spirit of friendship.

"You don't need to say anything deliberately, as long as you truthfully present what you see and hear to the emperor, the emperor will definitely be able to get the information he needs from it, and he will give a comprehensive judgment." Shen Yan's eyes flashed with a strong confidence, and he looked into the distance faintly.

"Do you really want to send Pei Xiangdong and the others out next? In this way, there are only 100 people in Lingnan City, and if you want to take care of more than 3,000 troops, this is no longer a matter of stretching, but a huge challenge, once the soldiers of the White Lotus Sect jump out to make trouble under the organization of people with hearts, we can't suppress it at all. A flash of worry flashed in Gao Yong's eyes.

"I know this, so I want to cut through the mess quickly, execute the bandit leader of the White Lotus Sect at the right time, and make an example of a hundred, so that the soldiers of the White Lotus Sect feel fear, and at the same time, the people of Lingnan feel a little relieved while feeling frightened." Shen Yan seemed to have thought of a countermeasure a long time ago, and he was not worried about the problem raised by Gao Yong.

"Do you mean to make the people in the city feel that you have the ability to protect them, and also make them feel that the White Lotus Sect will call at any time and ask them to donate materials and goods?" Although Gao Yong has no experience in this area, he often comes into contact with some high-ranking officials and hearsays a lot of information in this regard, so after thinking about it for a while, he understands Shen Yan's intentions.

"As for Huang Weiqian, what are you going to do?"
