"threaten?"

Ni Yizhe came back with his beloved decapitating ax in his hand. He said with murderous intent: "I am willing to kill them all for the sake of the marshal!"

All the soldiers performed military salutes neatly and said: "I am willing to kill them all for the marshal!"

Xu Jin bowed slightly and took half a step back.

Guo Ning laughed loudly, pointed at them, and gave orders one by one, asking this person to lead the team to the watchtower, that person to lead the team to the second gate, and some to the stables and other places. Finally, he specifically informed Dong Jin to be with him. More than a hundred troops were left immobile, ready for reinforcements or pursuit at any time. The soldiers led the troops one by one and went off with high spirits.

Surrounded by companions who could trust his life, this feeling made Guo Ning very relaxed.

The enthusiasm of the soldiers made Guo Ning even more happy.

How could he not understand the thoughts of the soldiers? Who is this "threat" that the soldiers said they wanted to kill? How could he not understand?

The navy was initially just an army. This army only knows how to follow Guo Ning's orders, even if there are mountains of swords and seas of fire ahead.

However, as Guo Ning led his soldiers to continuously defeat and attack, the size of this army became larger and larger, and it has grown into a military and political group that has entered the stage of competition for power. The leader of this military and political group is Guo Ning, which does not mean that other people in the group do not have their own demands and will.

At this moment, the soldiers were clamoring to kill all the enemies. In fact, they didn't care who they killed. They only know that the economic and political benefits they have gained in the past two years are entirely due to their powerful force. So when they discover the presence of an enemy, they will be overjoyed to fight. This is not only out of loyalty to Guo Ning, but also to gain a higher status and more benefits for themselves.

Ni Yi is like this, his trusted attendants are like this, in fact, the entire Dinghai navy is like this.

This military group is accustomed to using force to defend its interests and to obtain benefits from wars. Every officer in the Ding Navy is an evil tiger.

Surrounded by evil tigers, Guo Ning felt that he had nothing to fear.

However, to master these evil tigers, you not only need to be brave and good at fighting, but also need to know how to feed them, how to make them full, but not too full...

The Jurchens who rose up to cause trouble today are only worthy of being looked at as minced meat, are they enough to stuff between teeth?

Maybe, we need to add something else?

Guo Ning has been waiting for this rebellion for a while, and his preparations are also perfect. Although Xu Jin's subordinates were scattered outside, some capable guards were sent out one after another to maintain order. However, the Marshal Du Mansion inside Fengyi Gate is still the strongest fortress in the entire Zhongdu City, with no less than 600 elite soldiers stationed there.

Just relying on these 600 people was enough for Guo Ning to kill Zhongdu City several times. Even if there were manpower in this city that could turn the world upside down, Guo Ning thought to himself that they would be able to suppress it.

What's more, his trump cards don't stop there.

To the east of the Capital Marshal's Mansion, next to the school grounds where he practiced martial arts daily, there was an entire building that was specially provided as a guest house for military generals from all over the country to live in while reporting on their duties and studying. Guo Ning often went there to talk to the soldiers, compare their martial arts, and keep in touch with each other. At this time, hundreds of captains and sailors from the custom navy fleet were still living in this building.

Because for a long time, Ding Haijun's fleet has been under the control of multiple parties, and those who can make demands on them are mainly Yilan Chucai and Li Yun. At other times, the leaders of various groups acted according to the rules of the sea. The most effective one was Liang Jushi, who often did Guo Ning's dirty work.

However, as the status of the fleet becomes more and more important, Guo Ning has started preparing giant trees in Liaodong since last year and recruiting shipbuilding craftsmen to prepare for expansion. At the same time, the management authority over the fleet will also be clarified.

According to Guo Ning's wishes, Dinghai Navy's fleet will come under Wang Shixian's jurisdiction from now on. Therefore, a group of capable leaders, service leaders, and subordinates who had merit and performance and were selected from the fleet stationed in Zhigu Village were temporarily stationed in the Marshal's Mansion, waiting for Wang Shixian's interview.

These leaders and watermen were all fierce men who roamed the sea, and they also became the successor soldiers of the Marshal's Mansion.

With such power at hand, Guo Ning is not worried at all about the Jurchens showing any ability to beat the odds.

Thinking of this, Guo Ning asked again: "Where is Lao Wang, where has he gone?"

Ni Yi reported: "General Wang just left the Marshal's Mansion and moved directly into the guest house."

Guo Ning was stunned.

Xu Wei explained from the side: "I guess Brother Zhongming wants to inform the soldiers at sea of ​​the good news, and maybe he will bring them to congratulate him."

"Good guy, he is getting better and better at being an official."

"Isn't this what the marshal is interested in?" Xu Jin smiled.

Guo Ning was full of confidence: "He brought people here quickly, just in time to let the people on the sea see our majesty!"

The fleet of Dinghai Navy was inherited from a large number of Wanyan clan kings who were slaughtered during Hu Shahu's rebellion. After the fleet fell into the hands of Guo Ning, it immediately took on the task of transporting thousands of people south to Shandong. Later, it became the main force for smuggling in the Bohai Sea, and gradually expanded its scope of activities to the ports of the Song Dynasty in the Southern Dynasties.

Because sea routes are often measured in thousands of miles, every time a fleet sets out on a voyage, it often takes several months or even half a year to return. Therefore, the leaders of each fleet have great power to fight for life and death at sea.

After Wang Shixian takes control of the fleet, he will inevitably continue to rely on these leaders, but relying on them does not mean laissez-faire. With reference to the military household system of the Ding Navy, he formulated the system of Baojia and Tsunfa sitting together, which will truly control these strong men at sea to play a greater role.

For this reason, it is important to get to know each other well and build trust with the leaders.

Right now is a great opportunity.

Telling these leaders the news of the marshal's son and bringing them to the house in time to celebrate is enough to show that Wang Shixian regards them as his own. And this also shows that Wang Shixian and Guo Ning have a close relationship and their status is extraordinary. They can use Guo Ning's status to slightly frighten the people at sea, so that they can use their methods in the future.

In terms of this kind of caution, Guo Ning's other generals are really not as good as Wang Shixian. When Wang Shixian started a bodyguard business in Tangluo, Hebei Province, where he was a powerful man, others were still thinking about robbing families and homes.

The two of them were about to talk a few more words on this topic when suddenly there was a blazing flame in the sky in the direction of Longjin Bridge, and there was a sudden commotion in the direction where people were gathering, far and near. The next moment, shouts of death rose into the sky.

"coming."

Guo Ning strode to the center of the school grounds, looked at the sky dyed red by the flames, and sneered twice: "At this time, instead of thinking about making a sudden move, you would rather light a fire to embolden yourself? The Jurchens are becoming more and more like child's play in doing things. Got it!"

At the same time, Wang Shixian happily led a group of leaders along the wall between the guest house and the Marshal's Mansion. A person followed a few steps behind him, took out the box held under his ribs, and took out a gold vase with a spiral mouth.

"How about it?" The man smiled and said, "Take this as a gift to the marshal!"

Wang Shixian turned around and took a look. Even in the middle of the night, his eyes were dazzled by the shimmering golden light, and his feet almost felt weak.

"This... I'm afraid it can't be made with forty or fifty taels of red gold! Judging from the craftsmanship, it was also made by a famous master in the Southern Dynasty... This is too expensive! Hahaha, it seems that you have a lot of money, so you can come up with good things casually ah?"

"..." The man laughed twice, but before he could answer, he suddenly heard the sound of killing coming from high up on the wall.

Wang Shixian stopped and raised his head, frowning: "What's going on? Is there really someone making trouble in the city?"

Given his status, he had naturally received some reminders from Guo Ning before, but he was within the confines of the Marshal's Mansion, so he didn't feel there was any danger at all.

Next to Wang Shixian, Gang Shou, who was holding forty or fifty taels of red gold bottles, also raised his head and listened. While listening, he muttered: "You really did it. That old boy Pusanduan didn't lie to me."

Wang Shixian continued to raise his head and glanced at the sky before suddenly reacting. He turned his hand and pressed the handle of the knife, shouting sternly: "Lin Zhen, are you going to rebel?"

He was answered by a gust of evil wind.

The gang leader named Lin Zhen directly used the red gold bottle as a hammer and smashed Wang Shixian.

Wang Shixian turned sideways to avoid. He is also an experienced military commander, but after all, he is not known for his personal bravery. What's more, he is in a narrow alley and is caught off guard. How can he avoid it? The red gold bottle landed hard on the side of his head, and there was only a muffled sound in the winter. Stars were flying in front of Wang Shixian's eyes, and the sky was spinning.

Lin Zhen stepped forward and hit him hard again. People who make a living at sea, and those who can be the leader, are all ruthless characters. Lin Zhen looked like a wealthy businessman, but when he clenched the golden vase and exerted force, the sleeves of his robe flew sideways, the muscles from his forearms to his wrists bulged, and his blood vessels pulsated, just like a wild bull pumping his energy.

This time, Wang Shixian's face was hit with much greater force than before. The entire red gold bottle suddenly deflated, like a piece of waste paper being slapped flatly on Wang Shixian's cheekbones. Wang Shixian's cheekbones immediately shattered, and blood spurted out from his mouth and nose.

Wang Shixian turned over and fell to the ground, motionless.

Lin Zhen didn't take another look at Wang Shixian. He raised his bloody right hand and pointed at the corner door not far away: "Come in! Kill Guo Liu!"

When Wang Shixian fell to the ground, blood and flesh were flying everywhere under the wall, and no fewer than twenty or thirty people fell at the same time. The remaining more than a hundred people rushed through the corner gate like crazy. They took out the hidden weapons from their arms and shouted in unison: "Kill Guo Liu!"

After the corner gate is the school grounds.

The killing sound suddenly came from his elbows and armpits, and Xu Jin shouted angrily: "How is that possible?"

"It turns out that relying on this, it turns out that you have to cooperate inside and outside!" Guo Ning, who was standing in the middle of the school field, suddenly turned around, his face turned ferocious.
