Thank you for the tip, hehe.

"If I hadn't believed you, I wouldn't have made such a desperate bet." Liu Qi nodded and smiled, and suddenly remembered something, "By the way, I heard you talk about the matter of discussing matters in the Taishou Mansion before, and Mi Zhu actually slandered you for killing his sister, will this matter affect our big plans?" ”

The corner of Liu Feng's mouth showed a sly smile: "Brother doesn't know, although Mi Zhu has long been suspicious of me, but with his style, if there is no full evidence, he will never make this kind of thing that damages that person's image public." The reason why he did this that day was actually deliberately provoked by me. ”

Liu Qi was suddenly at a loss, and Liu Feng then told the process of his sneering and agitation to Mi Zhu in the dark outside the hall before the meeting began.

"Ah Feng, aren't you asking for trouble by doing this?" Liu Qi suddenly realized, and immediately fell into a new confusion.

Liu Feng's face was full of bamboo, as if everything was under his control.

In the face of Liu Qi's questioning, he smiled indifferently: "I did this just in front of everyone and let them play a farce of 'force', and when I told the reason for Mi's suicide in the end, everyone knew that I was the one who valued faith and righteousness, but they were a group of villains who were suspicious of loyalty, and when I broke with them, I would have one more justifiable reason." ”

Liu Qi really understood Liu Feng's intentions at this time, and couldn't help but sigh: "I see, but although this is Ah Feng's strategy, it is really hateful that they can really treat you like that." ”

Liu Feng sneered: "It doesn't matter, in short, what they do to me, I will double it in the future, I really want to see what kind of face they will have when that time comes." ”

Liu Feng's words were full of absolute self-confidence, and under the infection of this self-confidence, Liu Qi's blood was gradually boiling, and he said: "I can't wait for revenge, Ah Feng, when are you going to let me appear?" ”

"Brother, I'm holding back, when I take the second county of Xiangdong and have a foothold, when the time is ripe, it will naturally be the time for you to reappear and raise your eyebrows."

"Okay, then I'll do everything according to your arrangement."

After pretending to bury the "dead Liu Qi", it was already evening, and after Liu Feng placed the "living Liu Qi", he rushed straight to the camp in the south of Xiakou City.

The water and land village in the south of the city was originally the place where Liu Qi's troops were stationed, but after a few months, Liu Qi's 10,000 soldiers and horses that were divided were successively disrupted and reorganized into the battalions of Liu Bei's original lineage, and at this time, the city south of the city became the garrison of 5,000 new soldiers and horses.

Yesterday, in the discussion of the Taishou Mansion, Liu Bei promised to allocate an additional 600 parts to Liu Feng, and Liu Feng is now coming to the camp to select this batch of soldiers and horses.

According to Mi Zhu's meaning, he originally wanted Liu Bei to allocate 600 miscellaneous soldiers to him, but under Xu Shu's persuasion, Liu Bei finally agreed to Liu Feng to select 600 soldiers from among them.

If Ma Jian was there, that kid would definitely follow the practice of the last time, and after several rounds of examination, he would select six hundred soldiers who he thought could be trained into elite soldiers, but this time, Liu Feng couldn't do this.

These 600 people, plus the original 200 parts, 800 soldiers are not for Liu Bei's battle, but to follow themselves in the future to "create Liu Bei's rebellion", these 800 soldiers and horses are their own self-reliant primitive descendants, so the most important thing in selecting these soldiers is not their physical fitness, but their loyalty.

Therefore, Liu Feng spent two whole days carefully selecting 600 people from a large number of soldiers' registers.

Among these 600 people, 300 people were soldiers recruited by Liu Bei after he fled from Changbanpo to Jiangxia, although these people nominally belonged to Liu Bei, but because of the new recruitment, they naturally did not form a strong sense of belonging to Liu Bei. The other 300 people were Jiang Xiajun, who was originally subordinate to Liu Qi, although these people were absorbed by Liu Bei, their loyalty to Liu Bei was greatly reduced.

In addition, those soldiers who have followed Liu Bei since Xinye, Liu Feng basically skipped.

You must know that although Liu Feng is ready to break with Liu Bei, he still doesn't dare to underestimate Liu Bei's ability to buy people's hearts that is close to demagogy. Those veterans of Xinye, after the double blow of the defeat of Changbanpo and Hanjin, in this case, most of the remaining soldiers still regathered back to Liu Bei's side, you can see how loyal they are to Liu Bei, Liu Feng will certainly not be stupid enough to take this group of untouchable soldiers to turn against Liu Bei in the future.

Of course, in order to avoid Liu Bei's suspicions, Liu Feng still symbolically selected dozens of Xinye veterans, with this number, even if he opposes himself in the future, he will not be able to become a climate.

After selecting six hundred soldiers, Liu Feng also remembered another person.

In the afternoon, Liu Feng walked into a small military tent in Nanying.

"I said I don't want to have lunch, why do I still quarrel—" The soldier who was lying on his stomach complained impatiently, and when he turned his head to look at the tent door, the words of complaint that had come to his lips came to an abrupt end.

The person Liu Feng came to see was Chen Dao.

"Big ...... Grand Prince. Chen Zhi didn't expect that the dignified eldest prince of the Liu family would patronize him for no reason, and in surprise, he hurriedly prepared to get up and salute.

Liu Feng hurriedly pressed him down and said with a smile: "You are injured, you don't have to be formal." ”

"Then how can it be done, the courtesy of the monarch and the minister can be abolished." Chen Zhi still struggled to sit up and bowed to Liu Feng.

Liu Feng nodded in response, looking at the bandages all over his body, he expected that he would be beaten with a military stick that night, but seeing that his face was not so ugly, he joked: "I didn't expect that Uncle Zhi's body is so strong, and you look so good after being beaten with fifty military sticks." ”

"The little one has no other ability, but the skin is rough and the meat is thick, which makes the eldest prince laugh." Chen Zhi looked ashamed, suddenly remembered something, and hurriedly gave up his hand: "The small one is not good, and the crime should be punished, but fortunately, the eldest prince interceded to save a small life, and the kindness of the eldest son, the small one really doesn't know how to repay it." ”

Liu Feng smiled slightly, and did not respond to Chen Zhi's gratitude to Dade, but asked, "Uncle and nephew, how many years have you been in the army?" ”

Chen Zhi was stunned for a moment, counted with his fingers, and replied: "The little one has followed the lord since he was in Yuzhou, and he was only sixteen years old at that time, and it has been almost more than ten years now. ”

Liu Feng nodded lightly, with a thoughtful expression: "It's been more than ten years, but you have only been a small military horse, and your promotion is indeed a little slower." ”

"This ...... The small ones are shallow, they don't have any skills, and they can't even do a small errand on the main bus, and they should rise slowly. ”

Chen Zhi's words seemed to be blaming himself and ashamed, but the regret and grievances that flashed between his eyebrows could not escape Liu Feng's eagle eyes.

Liu Feng smiled: "You should know best whether you have the ability or not, I think what you lack the most is an opportunity." Uncle Chen, I am now an opportunity for you to show your strengths, I wonder if you are willing to seize it? ”

Liu Feng was not in a hurry to say the ultimate goal, but Chen Zhi was already looking uplifted, and he didn't care about the injury on his back, so he suddenly jumped up and said with a straight face: "Chen Zhi is willing to follow the eldest prince to the south to conquer the second county of Xiangdong, and go to Tang Taohuo to never give up, please give me a chance to prove myself!" ”
