Just as Shen Shikui and Shen Zhixiang discussed how to shift the responsibility for evacuating Phi Dao to the Denglai soldiers after they returned, Sun Lin and Huo Yan also discussed how to control the military power of Dongjiang Town.

It is nothing more than two kinds, one is to convince Shen Shikui and be willing to obey the command, and the other is to kill Shen Shikui and directly control Dongjiang Town. The former is difficult, and the latter is even more difficult, I am afraid that if Shen Shikui is killed here, the generals of Dongjiang Town over there will lead the troops to join Jianqing.

So they are prepared for both means.

Sun Lin is also a bold man, he knows that Yu Guozhen's prestige is killed, and if necessary, he will not hesitate to kill one or two people, but the premise is that he can do it seamlessly. Otherwise, like Yuan Chonghuan killed Mao Wenlong, it would be too worthless for civilian officials to kill military generals, and finally make themselves disgraced.

Therefore, the first priority is to find a way to convince Shen Shikui, which has to be grasped from both hands: through the performance, he realized that the strength of Denglai's soldiers is far better than that of Dongjiang Town, and he does not dare to live above Denglai; Through the treatment of Denglai soldiers, he realized that he could not maintain the supply of Denglai soldiers at all, and he had to let go and hand over power.

"How is it impossible?" Shen Zhixiang interjected, of course Sun Lin would not come forward to deal with it, Huo Yan smiled: "If you want the sergeant to work hard, you have to give him enough food, if you can't eat enough, how can you have the strength to kill the enemy on an empty stomach?" Look at the officers and men of our army, which one is not full of red light and strong body, if the soldier has a yellow face and thin muscles, it must be the chief officer who is greedy for military salary! ”

As he spoke, his eyes glanced towards Shen Zhixiang, Shen Shikui and Shen Zhixiang were both furious in their hearts, didn't this clearly scold them for embezzling military salaries?

You must know that among the 12,500 soldiers in the Dongjiang River, more than half of them are yellow-faced and thin-skinned, and they can't be full of two meals a day, not to mention big fish and big meat!

"Who are you, we are talking, what are you, dare to interject?" Shen Zhixiang had long seen that Huo Yan was dissatisfied, and saw that the clothes on Huo Yan's body were clearly not Denglai army uniforms, and he didn't look like an officer, so he immediately shouted and asked, and before Huo Yan could argue, he even shouted: "Come on, push him out and cut him down!" ”

This was to demonstrate to Sun Lin, Sun Lin smiled and didn't react, and when the two Dongjiang family members came up and were about to push Huo Yan, Huo Yan made a gesture, and then heard two pops, and the two Dongjiang family members looked at the blade exposed on their chests in disbelief, and then shriveled and fell to the ground.

It was the other two tiger guards of the staff group who did it, they stood a little distance at first, and as soon as the two Dongjiang family members came to clamp Huo Yan, they got Huo Yan's signal, and immediately took out the short knife on their waists and stabbed them directly. The two Dongjiang family members never thought that in front of Shen Shikui, someone would dare to do it without saying a word, so they died extremely unjustly.

Shen Shikui got up suddenly, his face turned pale: "You...... What do you guys want to do! ”

The Dongjiang Mutiny has a tradition, that is, in the era of Mao Wenlong, there are always a few such scenes, especially after Mao Wenlong's death.

If the Denglai soldiers mutiny at this time, and he is in the Denglai barracks, the consequences will be ...... Disastrous!

As soon as he thought of this, Shen Shikui secretly regretted in his heart, why he couldn't hold his breath and didn't wait for Sun Lin to see him!

"Do you want to rebel, do you want to rebel?" Shen Zhixiang was also panicked and shouted to hide his uneasiness.

"Didn't you just ask who I am?" Huo Yan walked up to him and said proudly: "Huo Yan is here in the Tiger Guard Camp under the command of Uncle Nanhai of the Ming Dynasty!" ”

"Nanhai Bo? Approve...... Yu Guozhen? ”

Shen Zhixiang was startled, and then he felt a flower in front of him, and then the sound of "horn" sounded on his face, and half of his face was swollen.

"My son-in-law's name is also what you, a little officer, can call?" Huo Yan sneered: "We are talking here, what are you, you dare to interject indiscriminately?" The army of 80,000 Jianlu also collapsed in front of my son-in-law, are you stronger than Jianlu? ”

No matter how Huo Yan wanted to express himself, just like Gu Jiaming's evaluation of him, he had no intention of betraying Yu Guozhen. On the contrary, his loyalty to Yu Guozhen was proved in the pile of corpses, and Yu Guozhen was also convinced of this, which was why Yu Guozhen sent all the generals during the Battle of Gyeonggi, but he was the only one who stayed in front of him, and he lived up to his expectations and blocked Yanguli's counterattack.

At least at the tactical execution level, he is indeed a rare talent.

"You...... You ......"

Under Huo Yan's aggressive momentum, Shen Shikui was at a loss for a while, he pointed at Huo Yan and said twice, at this moment, Chen Hongfan, the deputy chief soldier of Denglai, coughed, and said with a dry smile: "Why is this, why is this, Dongjiang Town and Denglai are both family, why bother to make this appearance, General Sun Bing, or persuade this Huo Yingzheng." ”

Sun Lin took a step forward and said in a fake manner: "Huo Yan, Nanhai Bo sent you to my side, not to cause trouble for me, and not to apologize to General Shen!" ”

Huo Yan immediately restrained his anger, and saluted Shen Shikui with his crossed hands: "Shen Zongbing, don't blame, I can't hear anyone disrespectful to Nanhai Bo, the parents who gave birth to me, Nanhai Bo who lives me, insulting Nanhai Bo is like killing my parents!" ”

His categorical words, and the nodding appearance of the tiger guards behind him, made Shen Shikui understand that he was speaking sincerely.

"My 8,000 Denglai soldiers are trained for me by the South China Sea Bo Pao, and this Huo Ying is the leader. At the time of the victory at Lengkou Pass, Huo Ying was blocking the impact of thousands of Yanguli Tartars head-on with hundreds of people, and he had a special feat, and he also had a very good set of training, and he was not afraid of ugly words, before Huo Ying was coming to my Denglai Army, what was the Denglai Army like, Shen Zongbing also knew what it looked like in his heart, and now what it looks like, everyone has also seen it. "Sun Linyuan didn't like to talk so much nonsense, but now he is talking nonsense.

"It turned out to be a warrior, I see!" Shen Shikui sensed from his nonsense that Sun Lin didn't mean to completely turn his face, which made him secretly relieved. Shen Zhixiang beside him was not stupid enough to see the situation clearly, and knew that this was not the time to fight with Sun Lin, so he could only swallow that breath.

His own Denglai soldiers came to drag the body out, and Shen Shikui's family members also put their weapons into the sheath. All of a sudden, there was another mass of harmony, and as for the bloodshed and death of Fang Cai, it seemed to have been forgotten.

"Today, Shen Zongbing came just in time, Xia Guan was about to talk to Shen Zongbing, I heard that Jianyu was going to attack Phi Island, and now there are Dongjiang soldiers and Denglai soldiers on Phi Island, the enemy is outnumbered, and the orders are different, and it is difficult to resist." Sun Lin said slowly: "Chief Shen has been in Dongjiang for a long time, and the battlefield general, my eight thousand people, below me, have all been handed over to General Shen's command, ah?" ”

When he said "ah", he deliberately accentuated his tone, and Shen Shikui's body shook suddenly, his eyes widened, and he looked at Sun Lin.

It turns out that this hairy boy actually hit this idea!

No matter who it was, they all heard what Sun Lin meant, and he kept saying that he wanted to hand over the Denglai soldiers to Shen Shikui's command, but in fact, was this possible? Just now, his subordinate Huo Yan killed Shen Shikui's two family members without hesitation, if Shen Shikui agreed, would Huo Yan say that Shen Shikui was disrespectful to Nanhai Bo and kill him too?

There are a lot of family members who followed Shen Shikui, there are five hundred, but the surrounding Denglai soldiers are eight thousand, and the Denglai soldiers have breakfast, and Shen Shikui's family members are also taken down to greet him, and there are only dozens of people who are really around him. He didn't expect at all that Sun Lin not only did not have the intention of escaping, but wanted to annex his subordinates!

"I am the chief soldier of Denglai, and I will return to Denglai after this battle, and the matter of Dongjiang in the future will still depend on General Shen." After seeing it for a while, Shen Shikui was still just trembling, but he didn't make a sound, and Sun Lin couldn't help but say again.

Huo Yan sneered beside him, his eyes full of cold light. His whole being was like a sharp sword unsheathed, and at the slightest touch, it could cut through the limbs.

Shen Shikui swallowed his saliva, his face was gray, and he knew that it was not okay to be silent. He didn't believe much in Sun Lin's words, and Sun Lin controlled Dongjiang Town, no matter how bad it was, he would get a cronie to act as the chief soldier, anyway, Dongjiang has always been an arrogant general, and he didn't listen to the arrangements of the imperial court since the time of Mao Wenlong.

But it is impossible for him to hand over military power like this.

"Shen, the chief soldier of Dongjiang Town, was appointed by the imperial court, and over the years, Shen has fought bloody battles with Jianlu in Dongjiang, and his sons and nephews have died in battle." He coughed lowly: "Shen's talent is limited, not enough to command the Denglai soldiers, I don't think it's as good as this, the Denglai soldiers are still the ...... of General Sun's soldiers."

When he said this, there was a sudden panic outside, and then a Denglai soldier broke in: "Master Qiyu Chief Soldier, Dongjiang urgent report, Jianyu is here!" ”

"What!" Sun Lin and Shen Shikui were both shocked.

They all judged that after Jianyu conquered Korea, the next step would definitely be to take Phi Dao. But yesterday Shen Shikui said that Jianyu officially surrendered on the thirtieth day of the first month, and after only ten days, he began to attack Phi Island again!

Shen Shikui's mind was racing, he had wanted to get out of Phi Dao before, and now he seemed to have a ready-made excuse. He looked at Sun Lin: "The matter is urgent, I won't be polite with Mr. Sun, Mr. Sun has a good way to govern the army, the Denglai soldiers are still led by Mr. Sun, and my Dongjiang soldiers are also commanded by Mr. Sun, I only take my family to assist from the side, if any general dares not to listen to Mr. Sun's orders, I will ask Mr. Sun to punish him with a sword, Phi Island is safe, and a town in Dongjiang will ask Mr. Sun!" ”

He is also a little anxious, Shang Fang Baojian is to warn Sun Lin not to deceive people too much, and Jia Ding is the foundation of his self-preservation, he even has the heart to play a little trick, and hand over the safety of Phi Dao to Sun Lin, in this way, it is not like he was forced to hand over the command, but he is the commander-in-chief, and Sun Lin is the commander of the former enemy.

In the future, if he wins, he will make a decision in the face of danger, and he should be the first to take the lead, and if he loses, Sun Lin's improper command should be the first responsibility.

Sun Lin has only been the chief soldier for more than half a year, and he has only been a supervisor under Shi Kefa for about two years, and he still doesn't quite understand these twists and turns. He had only one thing in mind, that is, to unite the two armies of Dongjiang and Denglai and concentrate his forces on engaging the enemy. Therefore, he nodded without hesitation and said: "Since General Shen is so concerned about the overall situation, how can Sun have a reason to shirk!" Please ask General Shen to supervise the battle and watch me break the enemy! ”
