Gan Ning helped Zhang Yan up and said with a smile: "Brother Xian has not yet understood the general's intentions, this is a trick to surrender, if it can succeed, it will be a great achievement." ”

Zhang Yan was stunned for a moment, and finally reacted, and after thinking for a while, he said: "Three years ago, Lin Wen issued a double dragon order to gather the leaders of various waters around Dongting, claiming to form the Jingnan Alliance, and also invited the grass people, but we didn't want to have anything to do with the thieves, so we didn't reply. ”

"God help me!" Liu Qi laughed when he heard this: "Lin Wen lost Zhou Xiong, if he broke his arm, he knows your name, if he goes to Shun, he will gladly accept it." ”

Zhang Yan hurriedly clenched his fists and said: "The general is sent, and he will not give up in the next ten thousand deaths." ”

Liu Qi said with a smile: "Lin Wen is stubbornly resistant, I already have a strategy to break the enemy, but I don't want to kill more, Zhang Zhuangshi helps me, and I will break the hole in a few days." ”

Zhang Yan was overjoyed and said: "If the Dongting thieves are broken, we fishermen can navigate the river again, and we should go all out in the next decision." ”

Liu Qi said with a smile: "In less than a year, I will open fish markets in Changsha and Jiangling, so you don't have to make a long voyage, and I will also find out about the taxation of Wuling this time." ”

Zhang Yan listened to Liu Qi's plan, raised his eyebrows, hugged his fists and said: "I heard that the general cares about the people, and sure enough, I will go to see Lin Wen overnight." ”

"There's no need to rush!" Liu Qi shook his head and said: "I have a book here, you go to the Dragon King Temple, see Xuan Zhizi, hand over the letter to him, and just listen to his orders." ”

Although Zhang Yan had doubts in his heart, since it was arranged by Liu Qi, he must have a deep meaning, and he went down to rest with Gan Ning first.

……

Lin Wen sent Xuan Zhizi away, and ordered people to carefully guard the nine formations, burn incense and light lamps every morning and evening, and the blood can be resolved in seven days.

In the past few days, people have been sent to inquire about the news of the officers and soldiers, Liu Qi has been stationed on Mochizuki Island, and all the prisoners have been sent back to Linxiang for resettlement.

On this day, he was thinking hard about the matter of the Lingjiao boat, and suddenly the minions came to report, and Zhang Yan, a heroic man of Yuanjiang, sent someone to contact him, saying that he was willing to fight against the officers and soldiers together.

Lin Wen heard the news of great joy, busy personally receiving the visitor, only to know that Zhang Yan walked the Three Gorges, and Gan Ning had a grudge, heard that Gan Ning had joined the army, and was willing to join forces with him to avenge the shame.

Zhang Yan also fought with them a few times, Lin Wen knew that this person's ability was only higher than Zhou Xiong, he had walked the Three Gorges for many years, and when he returned from a serious injury, he no longer set sail, but he was injured by Gan Ning.

Now Lin Wenzheng feels that he is unable to support himself, and suddenly Zhang Yan came to vote, which was really a charcoal in the snow, and even if he agreed to come, let Zhang Yan come to help the war as soon as possible.

Sending away the people who came, Lin Wen looked at the formation next to him, and laughed: "Dao Chang is a true god, help me break the blood, and there will be nobles to help me immediately, and after the matter is completed, I will definitely thank you again." ”

Two days later, Zhang Yan came with 3,000 men and horses, Lin Wen was smiling on the dock, and without waiting for the fleet to approach, he waved and shouted: "Brother Zhang, I have been waiting for a long time in the next place!" ”

When the fleet arrived at the port, Zhang Yan stepped ashore and said with his fists clenched: "How dare the owner of Lao Island greet him personally?" ”

Lin Wen laughed and said, "In the future, you and I will be like brothers and sisters, why be polite?" ”

While the two were talking, Lin Wen grabbed Zhang Yan's arm, came to Shuanglong Hall together, and said angrily: "Zhou Xiong was killed by officers and soldiers, and Dongting Shuangjiao has become a joke, and this other Jiao is none other than Brother Zhang." ”

Zhang Yan hurriedly waved his hand and said: "I have not made an inch, I am afraid it will be difficult to convince the public, in the next time I borrowed the hand of the island owner to take revenge, fortunately accepted by the island owner, I am already grateful." ”

Lin Wen said with a smile: "Brother Zhang's words are wrong, then you and I will fight the enemy with one heart, why worry about not having a chance to make meritorious contributions?" ”

A banquet had already been set up in the lobby, and the people who followed Zhang Yan were resting on the island, and Lin Wen wanted to give Zhang Yan up to the top, but Zhang Yan hurriedly excused himself.

Lin Wen saw that Zhang Yan was so modest, and his heart became more and more happy, so he worshiped Zhang Yan as the deputy island master on the spot, let him sit in Zhou Xiong's position, and introduced them to the leaders one by one.

Zhang Yan was greatly moved, and hugged his fists and thanked: "Thank you to the island owner, this time I fought with the officers and soldiers, I will definitely do my best to make meritorious service, capture Gan Ning, and avenge the island lord of Zhou." ”

After three rounds of drinking, Zhang Yan suddenly sighed, frowning at the wine glass.

Lin Wen asked, "Why is the eldest brother sighing?" ”

Zhang Yanyan said: "It's a shame to say, although I have the intention to take revenge, but I was injured in the water back then, fell into the root of the disease, and I can't go into the water anymore, so I hid in the Wuling Mountain, and it may not be easy to kill Gan Ning." ”

Lin Wen also knew that Zhang Yan had indeed withdrawn from the Yuanjiang River in recent years and hid in the mountains, thinking that he had cut off the waterway by himself and found another way out, but he didn't expect that there was such a hidden situation, and said with a smile: "There is no need to worry about this matter, you just have to guard Shenlong Island, and I will have the matter of the water war, and I will capture Gan Ning alive and bring it back to be disposed of." ”

Zhang Yan was overjoyed, raised his glass again, and said: "The island owner treats me like a mountain, smearing the ground in the liver and brain, and repaying me with death." ”

Lin Wen is very happy to receive another capable general, and Zhang Yan has a lot of prestige in the Yuanjiang area, and if other cottages hear the news, they may also hear the news and vote.

Treating Zhang Yan favorably is not only to win people's hearts, but also to show other leaders, but those who are willing to surrender to Dongting Shuangjiao are definitely better off than before.

On that day, Lin Wen ordered the whole army to hold a banquet to catch the wind, so that the people brought by Zhang Yan could get acquainted with the minions on the island as soon as possible, so that they could work together to deal with the officers and soldiers.

Early the next morning, Lin Wen personally burned a stick of incense and was about to discuss military training with Zhang Yan, when suddenly a minion came to report the news.

Liu Qi released the news on Mochizuki Island that there were still two days before the surrender period, and Lin Wen had to be prepared, otherwise he would attack Shenlong Island two days later, and there would be no armor left.

Zhang Yan was puzzled: "How can Liu Qi conclude that the main island has surrendered?" ”

"This is just Liu Qi's wishful thinking!" Lin Wen scoffed and sneered: "I have never seen such a brazen person when I have lived so big!" ”

Zhang Yan said: "Liu Qi has always been deceitful, even Cao Cao has been calculated by him repeatedly, and the island owner should be careful of fraud. ”

"I'm not scared!" Lin Wen smiled coldly, "Liu Qi's move is just a bluff and confusing people's hearts, as long as you and I train carefully, three days later, I will let him know how powerful I am in Dongting Shuangjiao." ”

Zhang Yan was puzzled: "Since Liu Qi is going to surrender in two days, why not fight with him and help him with all his might, why wait for three days, I am afraid that it will affect the morale of the army." ”

Lin Wen looked at the formation of green smoke in the distance, full of confidence, and said with a smile: "Three days later is an auspicious day for the zodiac. ”

Zhang Yan asked again: "I heard that Liu Qi has found a way to crack the spirit ship, I wonder if the island owner has a countermeasure?" ”

Lin Wen laughed and said: "Brother Zhang doesn't know, the reason why Zhou Xiong lost the battle in a daze is because of the robbery on my island, so there is such a defeat, I have asked the master to lay out a formation, get rid of the filth, solve this evil, Liu Qi will come again, he will be buried in the belly of the fish." ”

Zhang Yan was speechless for a while, originally he thought that the places where incense and paper were burned were to commemorate his dead brother, but he didn't expect it to be a formation.

Everyone walks the rivers and lakes, they all hang their heads on the waistband of their pants to live, and they actually pin their hopes on success or failure to pretend to be a ghost, how does this Dongting Shuangjiao become stronger and bigger?
