"The major general doesn't know the general situation, we can't count on it, so we can only figure it out ourselves." Song Zhi was the leader of this group of people, and he spoke first without any scruples: "We have worked hard for so long, and we can't fall short at this juncture." ”

"Commander Song is right, the young general refuses to send troops, so let's secretly bring troops to fight over ourselves, and when the time comes, we will directly hand over the jade seal to him and see what else he has to say."

"That's it, I don't believe that the young general can still smash the jade seal in his hand."

“……”

Song Zhi originally had greater selfishness and ambition, but when he saw the people under his hands say this, he dispelled the impossible idea.

He, or his group of subordinates, cannot have the appeal of General Xiao or Cheng Guogong, nor does he have a good reputation to convince the world.

Even if he insists on holding the jade seal in his own hands, he can't win the hearts of the people, and he will become a live target for other forces.

On their own, it is impossible to cope with it.

It's better to give it to Shen Mo, a soft person who can gather the hearts of the people, and he is not afraid that the power will not fall on his head when the time comes.

Just support a puppet.

Song Zhi didn't put his mind into words, and deliberately complained: "The young general refuses to agree to send troops for a long time, and he doesn't give us a legitimate reason, I see, he just meets us." ”

Someone chimed in: "Yes." I now know that the major general left his cronies and henchmen in Yunling County to protect his beautiful and capable fiancée. We are used to charge into battle, whether we live or die, and we are left to fate. ”

Hearing someone mention Su Ying, Song Zhi was even more resentful.

He also asked his daughter to deliver food to Shen Mo early in the morning, but who knew that he would be kicked out after a while.

Although his daughter didn't say anything, he could tell from his daughter's slightly reddened eyes that things were not going well.

These fierce generals under his command are all trustworthy by Song Zhi.

Their evaluation of Su Ying is not just the word 'beautiful'.

'Competent' was added to the end.

A beautiful and capable woman, how can her own daughter deal with it?

Song Zhi has always had to prepare with both hands.

On the one hand, he wants to control the power himself, and on the other hand, he wants his daughter to hook the silence just in case.

His face was silent, and he only said: "Just because the young general repeatedly refused to offer beauty, it can be measured that after the matter is completed, he will definitely favor that woman." But these things are not what we should be concerned about now. Let's think about how to defeat Zuo Chengyi's forces first. ”

Several people did a good job of dividing the labor, planning to attack several weak points of Zuo Chengyi at the same time, and finally take advantage of his unpreparedness to divide and dissolve.

"Commander Song has indeed been trained under General Xiao, and with your plan, we will definitely be able to do it."

The matter did not work out, and Song Zhipin was also cautious.

"You don't need money to praise you, and you don't need to say it in a basket. Go back and prepare, and do what I tell you to do. ”

"Yes."

The secret actions of several people have long been secretly reported to Shen Mo by eyeliner.

Shen Mo was not surprised, as if he had expected it a long time ago, and secretly arranged the manpower.

Several generals took advantage of the night to organize their teams, but they waited for most of the night without waiting for Song Zhi's order to come down.

Everyone waited and waited, and finally there was silence.

"In the middle of the night, the generals came out to practice?" Shen Mo asked knowingly.

Don't look at these generals just now touting and obeying Song Zhi, but the boss here is silent.

Even Song Zhi didn't dare to offend Shen Mo openly, let alone these people.

"Less, young general, it's a joke, we're not training."

"Not military training?" Shen Mo wondered: "Then you guys are ready to go in the middle of the night, is it possible that you want to rebel?" ”

"No, no, no, my subordinates don't dare."

"Since you don't train and don't rebel, let's disperse and go back to rest quickly." Shen Mo urged.

Several people looked at each other, really wondering why Song Zhi couldn't come over.

"Anything else?" Shen Mo's face sank.

Obviously, the young and delicate face did not have any intimidating appearance, but it made a few generals who were accustomed to life and death on the battlefield feel cold behind their backs.

"No, it's okay, I'll go back to sleep."

"The last general will go back too."

“……”

How did the people gather their forces and come, and how did they bring their troops back to rest.

Silence went back slowly.

Shen Jinbao, who hadn't appeared for a long time, also appeared in the tent.

"Is it all settled?" He asked the silence.

The silence was much more relaxed.

"It's dealt with, thanks to my father who secretly tied up Song Zhi."

If Song Zhi doesn't come forward, the others will have no backbone, and they won't be able to do anything.

As for how Shen Jinbao secretly tied up people and secretly detained them under everyone's noses, outsiders naturally don't know.

Shen Mo knew that his adoptive father was a wise man, but many people only saw his loyalty and kindness, but ignored his intelligence.

"Now, it's up to Zuo Gongzi." Shen Jinbao looked a little worried.

Words of gratitude, silence does not want to say more.

Only said:

"Cheng Guogong, who treats Zuo Chengyi as his grandson, still has selfish intentions and threatens him with kindness.

Song Zhi and others, who were blinded by my father and defected to me, also despised and disdained me in private.

Only you, Daddy, do everything for my good, and even the position that everyone dreams of is not rare, so I will fulfill my brother.

Why is my father so selfless to me?

What can I do if I am silent to repay my father's kindness? ”

"Let's sit down and talk."

Shen Jinbao patted his son on the shoulder and asked him to sit down quickly.

"Dad also has a brother of the same mother, so he naturally knows that blood is a wonderful thing, some brothers break their heads in order to fight for family property, and some brothers will sacrifice themselves to protect each other.

You were raised by your father since childhood, and of course you also followed your father's temperament and belonged to the latter.

You are willing to give up the power position you are about to take and become a brother who is more capable than yourself, and of course your father will support you. ”

made this decision silently, and even Zuo Chengyi, his own brother, didn't know.

He only told his adoptive father, Shen Jinbao.

He coquettishly said like when he was a child: "Dad, you haven't told me yet, why do you have any selfish feelings towards me." ”

Shen Jinbao smiled.

"Dad is a wasted person, and it is impossible to regenerate, since you are the only son, what selfishness do you need to have? Of course I'm happy if you're happy. ”

"Daddy—"

"Good boy." Shen Jinbao coaxed Shen Mo like a child, smiled, and said: "After tonight, the capital will change the sky, and the Great Zhou will also change the dynasty and change the surname. ”

"Hmm." Shen Mo leaned his head on his father's lap, "I believe that as a brother, he will definitely not embarrass me, nor will he embarrass these people who follow me." ”

Shen Jinbao nodded.

"Dad was worried that he would be bound by Cheng Guogong's kindness, and he didn't dare to let you go.

Now that he has really grown up and has a good idea, the things we were worried about before will not happen.

He's a good boy, and Daddy has as much faith in him as he has in you. ”

The father and son looked at each other and smiled, and at the same time looked at the dark night outside the window, hoping that after dawn, they would receive good news from Zuo Chengyi.
