Lin Zhaoying knew that he had only one way to go. He believed that His Royal Highness, although Su Lang was dead, was now the supreme commander of the army. He wanted to control Pingjiang County and the army as soon as possible. After all, Previously, only Zhou Yuanan's cronies were transferred, and these people were all going to die.
In Pingjiang County, Governor Gu was guarding the city, and Shan Tao was considered the most important person. When Lin Zhaoying came with his army, he opened the city gate immediately.
"Deputy Marshal Lin, what's wrong with your hand?" Lin Zhaoying said coldly: "Master Shan, Su Lang is dead. Xia Chunqiu was a spy and was assassinated by him."
"Is he a spy? Master Su, isn't he guarding against him?" Shan Tao asked in disbelief.
"Zhao Wufeng is also dead. According to the information provided by Xia Chunqiu, if I am not wrong, Zhao Wufeng gave his life in exchange for His Majesty's life, and so did Xia Chunqiu. I asked carefully before I came and found no Miao family ancestors. Zhao Wufeng used his own life to exchange for His Majesty's life. Their lives have been taken away, and there must be someone in the Black Dragon Guard to help them, but we don’t know where they are now, we must control this place." Lin Zhaoying said.
When Shan Tao heard this, he felt his heart was shaken. At this moment, he knew very well that he was also at the moment of choice. If he made the right choice, he would have what he wanted at his fingertips. If he made the wrong choice, it was very likely that he, and even the whole family, would suffer. Falling into a place of no return.
"Where are Marshal Zhou's people?" Shan Tao asked.
"I was transferred to the front line to inspect the camp. I sent an order for people to come back, but they haven't arrived yet. I'm afraid someone from the Black Dragon Guard sent a message and they didn't dare to come back easily, so I hope Master Shan can come with me." Lin Zhaoying said. .
"What's the use of me going? If Mr. Su is alive, everything will be easy to handle. Now the situation depends on Marshal Lin." Shan Tao said.
"What do you mean, Master Shan?"
"I can help you guard this place. Marshal Lin, you go there with the troops. Since you have already taken action, then just be ruthless. If anyone is disobedient, just use troops." Shan Tao signaled.
"Okay." Lin Zhaoying looked at Shan Tao, knowing that this old boy didn't want to take risks with him, but what he said was right. Now he had to take a chance on himself.
After Lin Zhaoying agreed, he immediately ordered his troops and headed towards the frontline camp, regardless of the bleeding wounds on his wrists.
Because the battle is approaching, some of the army has already assembled towards the designated forward camps, so there are many soldiers and horses in several forward camps.
Zhou Guangyi is Zhou Yuanan's nephew and serves as a deputy general in the army. At this time, he is in a camp ahead. The vanguard general Che Ying in charge here is Zhou Yuanan's son-in-law. As the commander of this battle, Zhou Yuanan also wants to Let your family members receive military honors.
At this time, the person in front of the two men was Yin Bingchun, the Silver Guard of the Black Dragon Guard. Now, he looked at the order that had just been sent with hatred in his eyes.
"That bitch Lin Zhaoying used so many people to kill Xia Jinwei and was able to seal the news. Thousands of people above saw it with their own eyes. They really thought I was a fool. My uncle has no children and he treated me like his own son. I will not avenge this wrong." Gentleman." Zhou Guangyi had read the instructions earlier, and his eyes were red at this time.
"Yin Yinwei, that bitch is coming with men and horses now. How many people do you have in the Black Dragon Guard now? Can you..."
Before Zhou Guangyi finished speaking, Yin Bingchun shook his head and said: "Most of the people on Black Dragon Weiming's side were killed by the other party. Even if they were not killed, they were all controlled. The remaining ones should live according to the commander's instructions. I told you to do something important."
"That means we can only rely on ourselves in this matter. Brother-in-law, you only have 10,000 people under your direct control. Can you control the 10,000 people you gathered before?" Zhou Guangyi asked.
Che Ying looked at the two people with a really sad look on his face, and asked slowly: "Guangyi, this matter is difficult to handle! Those ten thousand people are not my father-in-law's men. It is probably the limit to remain neutral. After all, there is only one Lin on the other side. Zhaoying, they won't move without the orders of his father-in-law and the supervisor. The key is Lin Zhaoying. He originally had 50,000 troops directly under his command. If we don't go back, he will directly mobilize the 50,000 troops here. Even if he has 50,000 troops, It’s impossible for everyone to come, but if 30,000 people come, it will be difficult for us. This time it’s a matter of life and death. It’s okay for others, but there is absolutely no way for you and me to survive.”

"This bastard Lin Zhaoying has driven me into a panic. I will surrender directly to Wei Tong. Whoever becomes the king of Yue in this country has nothing to do with me." Zhou Guangyi gritted his teeth and said.
"Nonsense, when my father-in-law defeated the coalition of princes, he killed so many princes. Although he did not do it himself, it was almost the same. If we surrender, can they easily accept us? Yin Yinwei, I don't know what Commander Zhao has to do to deal with it. You can't come here just to inform us about this and wait for death here with us, right? Have you sent someone to deliver a letter to Zhou Hong?" Che Ying asked.
Yin Bingchun looked at Che Ying. This person was much smarter than Zhou Guangyi. Zhou Guangyi was extremely brave on the battlefield, but he was just a mighty general, not a handsome man. He immediately said: "We Black Dragon The remaining people in the guard have already passed the news to each camp. General Zhou Hong is also among them. He has 30,000 troops. If he arrives soon tonight, we will also have tens of thousands of troops. I am not afraid of Lin Zhaoying, but if I do this, it will be difficult to control the situation in the subsequent battles."
"How could I forget about this boy Zhou Hong? Although I don't deal with him on weekdays, he was raised by my uncle and his relationship is deeper than mine." Zhou Guangyi patted his head, as if his confidence had returned.
But Che Ying was worried: "If it really becomes a confrontation between the two sides, and we end up in front of His Highness the Crown Prince, can we survive? Yin Yinwei, I heard that you were on duty with His Highness the Crown Prince for two years ten years ago. Based on your understanding, can we survive?" Survive?"
Yin Bingchun looked at Cha Ying and couldn't answer for a moment. He knew in his heart that if he couldn't answer, the other party might really respond. After looking at him like this, he said after a long time: "What His Highness needs is victory. Su Lang is no longer here. If anyone can stabilize the current situation, I think His Highness will use him."
"So as long as the current situation can be stabilized and His Majesty recovers, we will naturally be the great contributors. If His Majesty cannot recover, His Highness will also execute Lin Zhaoying to appease and win over us. After all, Su Lang did this without his consent. Yes." Cha Ying confirmed.
"Yes." Yin Bingchun admitted. This was not a random attempt to stabilize the other party. In fact, it was indeed something that the Crown Prince would do.
Seeing Yin Bingchun confirm again, Cha Ying also nodded and said: "In this case, Guangyi, we can only go to the dark side in one way. We will send someone to contact Zhou Hong in a while. When the time comes, we will cooperate inside and outside to kill Lin Zhaoying directly." ”
"Okay, I'm waiting for your words, brother-in-law." Zhou Guangyi also grabbed his fist tightly.
