Liu Ji saw that Ding Lin's intelligence value reached 86 points at that time, and to be honest, he was shocked, you must know that among the more than 100 generals under Liu Ji's command, Wei Xiaokuan, who has the highest intelligence value, is only 84 points, and Ding Lin, the man who sees the wind and rudder, has an intelligence value that is two points higher than Wei Xiaokuan, which suddenly makes Liu Ji a little messy.

Ding Lin has such a high intelligence value, and he is Shi Mao's henchman, logically speaking, Shi Mao should not come up with such a clumsy means to annex the 250,000 army under Liu himself.

Cheng Pu, Huang Gai and Han Dang led three infantry battalions to Shangyuan City, and also brought a news to Liu Ji, that is, after Liu Ji led the cavalry of the 5,000 Guards Battalion to leave Chengyin City, a group of people suddenly appeared to buy many generals under Liu Ji's command, but these generals were basically summoned by the system and were loyal to Liu Ji.

Not only did those people not succeed in buying, but they were all arrested, and the gold used to buy the generals was also confiscated, which was equivalent to losing their wives and soldiers.

And if Ding Lin, who had an intelligence value of 86 points, gave advice to Shi Mao, Shi Mao's forces should not have been solved by himself so easily, and in the end, Shi Mao died inexplicably.

Taishou Zhang Chutao sent someone to inform Liu Ji that Shi Mao committed suicide in fear of crime in the prison of Taishou Mansion, Zhang Chutao also told Liu Ji that Shi Mao had also been charged with attempting to rebel, and the twists and turns of Shi Mao's guilt were also played by Zhang Chutao to the imperial court, and Zhang Chutao also suggested to the imperial court that Liu Ji, a guerrilla general, should take over the position of the guard general of the Shangyuan City border army.

If there is no accident, the position of the border army guard of Shangyuan City will definitely fall on Liu Ji's head.

Liu Ji suddenly became very interested in Ding Lin, and began to send people to investigate Ding Lin, but Liu Ji found that Ding Lin was under Shi Mao's command and was able to rise to the position of a partial general, completely relying on his whiskers and horses, and he had never made any good ideas for Shi Mao, and he had been hiding clumsy.

Shi Mao may not know until he dies that there is a strategist with a very high intelligence value under his command, and he is also the sycophant Ding Lin who loves to pat his ass.

Ding Lin respectfully asked Liu Ji: "General, I don't know which two positions they are?" In fact, as long as you can serve as a general, it doesn't matter what position you have! ”

Liu Ji said with a smile: "One is to stay in the guards camp and temporarily be Chen Hao's deputy, and the other is to stay with General Ben and act as a strategist to give advice to General Ben, which one do you want to choose, General Ding?" ”

Ding Lin heard Liu Ji's second choice, and his heart couldn't help beating faster, but he was still calm on the surface, "The general laughed, with Ding Lin's little ability, he is not worthy of being a strategist at all, Ding Lin should go to the guard camp!" ”

"Ding Lin, don't be presumptuous, I Liu Ji has no other skills, but I think I am very good at knowing people, I think you Ding Lin is enough to be qualified for the position of a strategist, unless you are not sincerely loyal to me Liu Ji!" Saying that, a trace of murder suddenly appeared in Liu Ji's eyes.

Ding Lin immediately felt the murderous aura in Liu Ji's eyes, and couldn't help but shudder, and then immediately changed his words and said: "Since the general can afford Ding Lin, what else does Ding Lin have to say, Ding Lin is willing to stay by the general's side and do his best to come up with some ghost ideas for the general!" ”

"Haha, not bad! Those who know the times are Junjie, no matter why Ding Lin hid under Shi Mao before, but in the future, I hope you can sincerely give advice to this general, and if you want to hide clumsiness in front of me Liu Ji, then you must be ready to lose your head! ”

Ding Lin hurriedly nodded and said, "General...... No, don't worry, Ding Lin will never dare to have two hearts for the lord in the future, and he will not dare to hide in front of the lord, to be honest, Ding Lin sometimes has some ghost ideas that are still very effective. ”

Ding Lin was actually scared enough at this time, you must know that his talent in resourcefulness has never been shown in front of Shi Mao, I don't know how Liu Ji knew? Could it be that Liu Ji knew his experience before he took refuge in Shi Mao?

Liu Ji then said with a smile: "Since you are willing to recognize me as the lord, is there something that you should confess to General Ben!" ”

Ding Lin's head has beads of sweat, he pondered for a moment, then sighed and said: "Then I will no longer hide from the lord, I Ding Lin can actually be regarded as a bandit, I read more than ten years of books when I was young, but unfortunately later the family fell in the middle of the road, forced to go up the mountain to be a bandit, and then the cottage where I was attacked, Shi Mao, who was still a general at the time, led the troops to attack, my sworn brother and second brother, that is, the owner and the second master of the cottage, under the advice of me, the third village master and the cottage military division, took the initiative to surrender to Shi Mao and surrendered to Shi Mao. ”

After a pause, Ding Lin continued: "But I didn't expect that Shi Mao fell in love with my eldest brother's wife, we just returned to Shi Mao, Shi Mao killed my eldest brother on trumped-up charges and occupied my sister-in-law, and then the second brother wanted to avenge the eldest brother, and took some people from the cottage to assassinate Shi Mao, but the assassination was not successful, the second brother was seriously injured, and the rest of the people who participated in the assassination were all wiped out, but the second brother escaped. ”

Then Ding Lin's eyes showed a trace of pain, "Because the second brother assassinated Shi Mao, Shi Mao immediately began to purge the remaining people in the cottage, and the reason why I was able to escape the purge was because I handed over the seriously injured second brother to Shi Mao with my own hands, so that the second brother was tortured by Shi Mao to death, but this is the second brother forced me to do this in order to save me!" Since then, I have become one of Shi Mao's henchmen, as for hiding in front of Shi Mao, I don't dare to show it at all, otherwise Shi Mao, who is very suspicious, may get rid of my cottage remnants and never suffer from future troubles! ”

Liu Ji frowned and asked, "Then why haven't you taken revenge all these years?" ”

"Tell the lord, Shi Mao himself is strong in martial arts, I am not an opponent at all, and in the army under my command, even the people around me, there has always been Shi Mao's eyeliner, and I dare not act rashly."

After listening to Ding Lin's explanation, Liu Ji didn't know whether what Ding Lin said was true or false, but Liu Ji didn't get a hint of Ding Lin's sincere allegiance from the system, "In this way, General Ben also helped you take revenge, and it can be regarded as a favor to you, follow General Ben in the future, as long as you do your best, General Ben will not treat you badly!" ”

"Don't worry, Ding Lin will definitely do his best to do things for the lord!"

In fact, Ding Lin's words are true and false, Shi Mao did fall in love with the wife of the owner of the village, but it was Ding Lin who mentioned to Shi Mao that his eldest brother's wife was as beautiful as a flower and was a first-class beauty.

As for handing over the seriously injured Erzhai master to Shi Mao, it was not that the Erzhai master voluntarily went to death in order to protect Ding Lin, but that Ding Lin took advantage of the unpreparedness of the Erzhai master and knocked the Erzhai master unconscious, so he handed him over to Shi Mao.
