After leaving, Ling Feng left Zhang Guozhong behind. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

There were only two people left in the main hall, Ling Feng and Zhang Guozhong, and Ling Feng said straight to the point: "Lord Zhang, the matter of private soldiers... Can you go about it? ”

Speaking of this, Zhang Guozhong felt a pain in his flesh, he didn't care about other families, as far as his Zhang family was concerned, he would send out more than 2,000 private soldiers, these private soldiers were recruited by him with hard work, the so-called raising soldiers for a thousand days and using soldiers for a while, they have been raised for so long, but now they are going to be given to the court for nothing, how can he figure it out.

However, the matter has come to this point, and Zhang Guozhong has no choice, so he replied: "General, don't worry, I have written letters to all the families in Chu County yesterday, and I expect that there will be results in a few days." ”

"Master Zhang is really resolute in doing things, okay."

Ling Feng smiled.

"This is all a matter of humble duty, and I dare not slack off."

"It's good to know, I want to leave you behind, I just want to tell you that as long as your Zhang family works hard for the imperial court, I will never treat the Zhang family badly, you will always be the big family of Chu County, and this will not change."

Ling Feng said: "There is one more point, Ling Qianjin... In the future, you can stay in the county guard's house, play the piano and dance for me in your free time... Speaking of this, Ling Feng looked at Zhang Guozhong and said, "Lord Zhang, you don't have any opinions, right?" ”

Zhang Guozhong was stunned for a moment, then became overjoyed, and said: "No, of course not, how can I have an opinion." ”

Sending Zhang Wan'er to Ling Feng's side originally didn't have any hope, especially since Zhang Wan'er hadn't made any progress for so long, Zhang Guozhong didn't take this matter to heart, but he didn't expect that Ling Feng would suddenly mention this matter, which really surprised him.

Ling Feng nodded and said, "Well, you can step aside." ”

"No."

Zhang Guozhong smiled and slowly exited the lobby.

......

Time passed day by day.

At the same time that Wei Ning and Pang Yi started to form an alliance, the clans in the counties of Chu County finally moved; Under the joint suppression of Ling Feng and the Zhang family, the major families had to sacrifice their private soldiers and send them all to Pingxing, and send them after listening.

After counting, there are more than 40,000 private soldiers, all of whom are now stationed in the open space outside Pingxing City.

Ling Feng did not break his promise, just yesterday, he personally announced that he would let Zhang Ming serve as the commander of this army, and worship Zhu Ru as his military advisor, anyway, they were all members of the family, Ling Feng simply let these people all lean together.

As for the loyalty of this army, Ling Feng was not worried, he believed that Zhang Guozhong must know the severity.

In the study, Zhang Ming and Zhu Ru arrived together.

Ling Fengzheng, Liao Yun, and Han Yong were looking at the map and checking the situation in the three northern counties.

"General."

Ling Feng raised his head and said with a smile, "You two are here, what's the matter?" ”

Zhang Ming frowned and said, "General, according to your order, the family's private soldiers have begun to conduct run-in training, but..." More than 40,000 people were not armoured.... ”

Zhang Ming and Zhu Ru both had bitter faces.

Before Ling Feng could speak, Han Yong laughed: "Zhang Ming, if you want armor, you don't need to speak, General Yu's more than 20,000 sailors are not equipped with armor yet." ”

Liao Yun also smiled.

Zhang Ming: ".... ”

Zhang Ming and Zhu Ru looked at Ling Feng.

Ling Feng shook his head helplessly: "Zhang Ming, I really don't have armor, and I don't have weapons. ”

Zhang Ming was speechless, there was nothing, how to fight this battle; Originally, he was still full of confidence and threatened to capture Wushan, but the current situation made him a little disappointed.

The 20,000 Wei Ning troops stationed at the foot of Wushan are all elite, not only well-equipped, but also well-trained, although he has more than 40,000 people in his hands, but all of them were formed on the verge of death, and they have never been on the battlefield, at best, they have fought with bandits, these private soldiers have no other skills, they will bully the common people on weekdays, and now they really want to fight, he really has no bottom in his heart.

Zhu Ru arched his hand and said: "General, there is no armor and weapons, how can we fight the enemy?" ”

"It's your business, go find Zhang Guozhong, he has a way."

Ling Feng said.

Zhu Ru and Zhang Ming glanced at each other, and the two of them arched their hands at the same time: "No." ”

The two exited the lobby.

.......

"Lord, are you forcing the Zhang family too ruthlessly, and you want them to fight, and you don't give them a little equipment resources, can they do their best." When the two left, Liao Yun said suddenly.

He could see it clearly, although Ling Feng had always said that he would not suppress the Shi clan, and even made Zhang Guozhong the county governor of Chu County, but this private soldier matter was obviously Ling Feng playing tricks, wanting to weaken the strength of those clans, not suppression.

"There are some things that you just need to know in your heart, and you can't say them."

Ling Feng smiled and didn't answer his words.

In fact, he really didn't have any extra armor for Zhang Ming, all the armor he brought from the imperial capital had been used up, and all of it was used to expand the recruits, and even Yu Qinglong's army had not been distributed, where was it for these big families.

Putting aside the affairs of the family, the three of them looked at the map seriously, Han Yong pointed to a location on the map and said: "Lord, although the place of Chu County is not big, there are many places to defend, especially these three counties, which are completely exposed in front of Wei Ning's soldiers. The lord had to guard against it. ”

Liao Yun also nodded.

Liao Yun said: "Lord, I sent to Qingliang County to make a detailed report, recently, Wei Ning's soldiers and horses are distributing weapons, bows and arrows, and each battalion is fully armed, and there may be a big move." ”

"You are well informed, and I called you here today for this purpose." Ling Feng smiled.

The entire Chu County, judging from the map, can be said to be easy to attack and difficult to defend, because the territory is too small, from the eastern border of Qingliang County, only the first four counties are Pingxing, and these four counties are all small counties, and there are not many troops stationed in them, Wei Ning only needs thousands of soldiers and horses, and he can directly reach Pingxing City.

Of course, Wei Ning was an extremely cautious person, and it was impossible for him to send only a few thousand soldiers and horses.

This is also what Ling Feng is worried about, the most terrifying thing is not the 20,000 people at the foot of Wushan, but the weakest south, if you are not careful, you may be stabbed.

As for the area along the river, there is no need to worry, Yu Qinglong has now simply established the water village, completely controlled Chu County to Sleepy Dragon Beach, and there are naval patrols every day, if it is not for a large number of naval enemies, it will be fine.

It's a pity that Han Ziyu is not here, Ling Feng is a little undecided now, and he doesn't know whether he should send troops to the three border counties to garrison. If Han Ziyu is again, he will definitely be able to solve his doubts.

"Liao Yun, do you think you should also send troops to these three counties?"

Ling Feng looked at Liao Yun.

However, Liao Yun didn't speak for a long time, and obviously he couldn't pay attention.

Han Yong, who was on the side, looked anxious and said, "Lord, I will take the people of the headquarters to go, and it will be difficult for Wei Ning to take a step forward!" (To be continued.) )
