According to Zhao Junchen's proposal, the new commander-in-chief of Liaodong Town should be selected from the various generals in Liaodong Town.
There are five generals in Liaodong Town, namely, the middle road general Li Zehe, the south road general Xu He, the east road general Gancheng, the north road general Ximen Sheng, and the west road general Huang Shenming.
But in the eyes of Li Zehe, Gan Cheng, and Xu He, Ximen Sheng and Huang Shenming had no chance at all.
Ximen Sheng was not present at this time. In all likelihood, he had become a prisoner of Wu Yingxiong's subordinates, so he naturally had no chance to participate in the competition. Huang Shenming, however, was limited by his lack of strength and low reputation, so he had no chance at all.
Therefore, the new commander-in-chief of Liaodong Town can actually only choose among Li Zehe, Gancheng, and Xu He.
Thinking about this, Li Zehe, Gan Cheng, and Xu He behaved differently.
Xu He was immediately overjoyed. He had been deceived by Li Zehe and Gan Cheng, and thought that Li and Gan would support him unreservedly, so he was full of confidence and thought that he would definitely be in the public eye. Become the new generation of co-owners of Liaodong Town.
As for Li Zehe and Gan Cheng, they looked at each other, with a trace of hostility and fear flashing in their eyes.
On the surface, the two of them have always regarded Xu He as the leader, but in fact they have never really supported Xu He. The reason why they regard Xu He as the leader is just to deceive Xu He's support, win Xu He to join the team, It was just a way to encourage Xu He to come forward.
When it came time to decide on the specific candidate for the next commander-in-chief of Liaodong Town, these two men would naturally abandon Xu He without any hesitation and instead fight for the position for themselves.
To this day, Li Zehe and Gan Cheng each have their own advantages.
Gan Cheng has been keeping a low profile during this period. He is not as active as Li Zehe, nor is he a nominal leader like Xu He, so he has made fewer enemies. Moreover, the comprehensive strength of the East Road Defense Zone led by Gan Cheng is second only to In the North Road Defense Zone, as long as you make good use of these two advantages, your chances of winning will naturally increase;
As for Li Zehe, he believes that he has a closer relationship with Zhao Junchen, Li Shijie and others, and the Jinzhou Camp, the headquarters of Liaodong Town, is located in the Middle Road Defense Zone, so he also has the same relationship with He Bandi, He Rensheng, Liu Xiong and others. You are more familiar with it. As long as you operate it well and promise huge profits to all parties, you can gain more support.
Under such circumstances, after hearing Zhao Junchen's proposal, Li Zehe and Gan Cheng not only immediately decided to betray Xu He, but also immediately regarded each other as their biggest enemy.
At the same time, He Bandit frowned and did not express his position for a long time.
After all, Zhao Junchen's proposal was not only to select a new commander-in-chief for Liaodong Town, but also to seize the opportunity to take away the military power from He Bandit.
Bandit He himself is not a power-hungry person. He also knows that he has no ability to control the situation in Liaodong, let alone the qualifications to take over as the commander-in-chief of Liaodong Town. All the things that have happened during this period have repeatedly proved this point. He did not taste the sweetness of holding power at all. Instead, he was repeatedly frustrated and exhausted.
However, He Bandit is still unwilling to delegate power like this.
This is because He Bandit does not trust the other generals, nor does he think that after these generals take control of the military, they will wholeheartedly avenge He Yu like he does.
But He Yu also knew that under the current situation, Liaodong Town really needed to elect a new commander in chief as soon as possible to take charge of the overall situation.
Therefore, He Bandit could not help but be in a dilemma and did not respond for a long time.
He Bandit had decisive military power, so after everyone saw He Bandit's delay in responding, although they had different ideas and were ready to act, they did not express their opinions urgently.

Just like that, as Zhao Junchen finished speaking, everyone was silent in thought, and the scene fell silent instantly.
After a moment, He Biao suddenly raised his head and said: "Zhao Gechen's proposal... is indeed reasonable, but it is of great importance after all. I want to discuss it privately with Ren Sheng and Hei Xiong."
After saying that, He Bandit didn't wait for anyone to agree, and directly took He Rensheng and Liu Xiong to a distance and started discussing in a low voice.
Zhao Junchen looked at the other four generals present, as well as Li Shijie and Shi Cheng, and asked with a smile: "Do you want to discuss it in private?"
After hearing Zhao Junchen's inquiry, except for Shi Cheng, who looked cold and solemn, the other five people all looked a little embarrassed, but they all nodded slightly in agreement.
After all, the matter of selecting the new Liaodong Commander-in-Chief is of great importance. Li Zehe, Gan Cheng, and Xu He all want to win more support for themselves. Huang Shenming and Li Shijie also want to take the opportunity to win more support for themselves and their family. benefit.
Therefore, at this time, they must seize the time to connect in private, exchange opinions, form parties, fight against differences, and bargain.
As a result, the five people, Li Zehe, Gan Cheng, Xu He, Huang Shenming, and Li Shijie, quickly left Zhao Junchen's side and walked away one after another.
First, Xu He brought Li Zehe and Gan Cheng together to discuss, and Huang Shenming and Li Shijie also took the opportunity to exchange opinions;
Afterwards, he saw Li Zehe walking quickly to Li Shijie and talking quietly to Li Shijie with a sincere look on his face. Gan Cheng also put his arm around Huang Shenming's shoulder in a cordial manner and talked to Huang Shenming with his head down;
Then, Xu He stood in front of Li Shijie and talked loudly about his close relationship with the generals of the Li family, while Li Zehe and Gan Cheng hid in the distance and argued quietly...
As a result, only Zhao Junchen and Shi Cheng were left standing still.
Zhao Junchen watched the scene in front of him with interest, while Shi Cheng's expression was full of disdain.
Afterwards, Zhao Junchen chuckled and said: "It's really interesting. Things like this kind of private connections and rent-seeking for power are inevitable for everyone in the temple, but they always only happen in the dark, and everyone does it." I try my best to hide it, but I am most afraid of being exposed...
But now, under the pressure of the situation, all the forces in Liaodong Town have to connect with each other and rent and sell power in broad daylight. This pavilion has been able to witness this scene with my own eyes... Ha, it can be regarded as an insight. "
Shi Cheng turned to look at Zhao Junchen and said coldly: "Zhao Gechen, you are probably too excited, aren't you? Do you think that all the things in front of you are not a good thing?
I believe that although Liaodong Town has no choice but to do this, but after lifting the fig leaf and allowing this kind of collusion to happen directly under everyone's eyes, the negative impact on the future of Liaodong Town will be Unprecedented! "
Zhao Junchen shook his head and said: "Collusion, forming factions and fighting against dissidents, rent-seeking for power... These things do not matter whether they are good or bad, open or hidden. These things will always exist and can never be avoided... In essence, they are just to achieve the goal. It’s just a means!”
Having said this, Zhao Junchen suddenly asked: "Shi Qianhu, this is a rare opportunity. Would you like to take the opportunity to connect with us?"
Shi Cheng frowned and said, "What can we connect with you?"
Zhao Junchen asked softly: "If this cabinet is willing to fully support Ximen Sheng as the next commander-in-chief of Liaodong Town, Shi Qianhu, what kind of reward are you willing to pay?"
