Sun Tzu Yi obviously did not feel happy because he was awarded the title of General of Chariots and Cavalry.
But there are definitely more happy people.
Zhao Kaishan used this advantageous and cost-effective method very well and won over people's hearts at once. Even Su Yonglin's subordinates probably had a group of generals who had a good impression of Zhao Kaishan.
More importantly, neither Su Yonglin nor Sun Ziyi could raise objections.
Otherwise, you will lose people's support and your subordinates will be unhappy.
Good guy, this method works.
Su Yonglin suddenly felt that sometimes, one should not underestimate these guys who like to fight in the nest. They don't have big skills, but they still have some cleverness in conspiracy and calculation.
Zhao Kaishan successfully completed this set of advanced operations at no cost, and then announced a military meeting to discuss the next military action plan.
Based on the current situation, Zhao Kaishan set a very "ambitious" goal.
He pointed out that the momentum of the Liberation Army was now greatly strengthened, and it was the time when great development was needed, so he decided that this time the Liberation Army would also come out in three directions.
But the direction of all three coming out is rather strange.
Su Yonglin and Sun Ziyi were both assigned to go north, while Zhao Kaishan was responsible for going west and south.
The specific arrangement was for Su Yonglin to attack northwest, capture Dezhou, Bozhou, and Enzhou, and then go north to Hebei to mobilize Hebei's powerful forces to participate in the rebellion.
Sun Tzu Yi directly sent troops out of Hebei to attack Cangzhou and Jingzhou, and also mobilized local powerful people in Hebei to participate in the rebellion.
The duty of both of them is not to capture cities and territories, but to mobilize Hebei's powerful people to participate in the rebellion. It doesn't matter how much they can fight.
"During this period, there were a large number of local heroes on Shandong West Road and Damingfu Road revolting against the gold thieves. They were eager for the Liberation Army to come for support. At the same time, the local gold thieves were powerful, so I had to shoulder this responsibility. "
Zhao Kaishan shouldered this "important responsibility" "without hesitation" and stated that he would conquer Shandong West Road and Damingfu Road in one fell swoop, setting a very high goal.
This made Su Yonglin feel dumbfounded.
Zhao Kaishan's appearance is not so good this time.
Let the two of them act as a barrier in the north, while he himself can attack the city and capture territory in a relatively safe place in the south, expand his power, and become the true "leader" of the Liberation Army in one fell swoop.
There are obviously more golden soldiers in the north than in the west and are more difficult to deal with.
Well, one night passed, Zhao Kaishan's ability to do things had improved significantly, which made Su Yonglin feel more and more that he was not fighting alone.
Someone must be helping him.
who?
He immediately understood when he thought of how Zhao Kaishan had given the title of general to his relatives and close confidants. Seven members of the Zhao family were granted the title of general, and four of his close associates were granted the title of general.
Zhao Kaishan wants to engage the Zhao Jiajun.
While engaging in Zhao Jiajun, we must also normalize the identities of ourselves and Sun Ziyi, rather than further elevating them.
He is trying to marginalize himself and Sun Ziyi so that he and Sun Ziyi can no longer threaten his status as "leader".
I just don’t know whether Zhao Kaishan can cope with the situation after taking over the power, and whether he can shoulder the huge threat of the Jin Army on his shoulders.
And whether Zhao Kaishan can face Sun Ziyi's dissatisfaction and the possible final break.
The split of the Liberation Army seems to be a certainty at this point.
If not now, it will probably be in the not-too-distant future.
There seems to be no way to avoid this, because both sides have core interests that cannot be compromised. When core interests conflict, no one takes a step back, only life and death.
Su Yonglin did not want the Liberation Army to split too early.
However, Sun Ziyi didn't think so much. He raised questions on the spot.
"My department's jurisdiction is in the Denglai area. If we want to go north, is it possible that the commander-in-chief...oh, commander-in-chief! The commander-in-chief wants our department to build a large warship and attack across the sea?"
Sun Ziyi looked at Zhao Kaishan with a mocking look.
Zhao Kaishan laughed as if he was waiting for Sun Ziyi to ask this question.
"Yes, I just took this into consideration, so I had an idea and wanted to ask Ziyi for his opinion."
"idea?"
Sun Ziyi frowned.
"Yes, I know that Ziyi has always been loyal and brave, hates the gold thieves deeply, and vows to fight the gold thieves until death, so I thought about having Ziyi's troops move to Yidu Prefecture, Binzhou and Dizhou, and use the three prefectures as defense areas and In the rear, the northern expedition to Hebei, what does Ziyi think?"
Zhao Kaishan looked at Sun Ziyi with a confident smile.
Sun Ziyi was stunned for a while before he realized that Zhao Kaishan was messing with him.
"Leader Zhao, are you serious?"
"How can it be possible to make jokes about military and state affairs? Of course, Ziyi has also made great contributions, so I plan to officially appoint Ziyi as the general manager of Yidu Prefecture, Binzhou and Dizhou, and the general manager of the three states. What does Ziyi think?"
Zhao Kaishan seemed to be talking about a common thing, just like bargaining for vegetables at the wet market.
Sun Ziyi heard what he meant.
He wanted to exchange Yidu Prefecture, Binzhou and Dizhou for the three states he had conquered. He exchanged the three states for the three states and became the general manager. It seemed that he was not at a disadvantage.
However, doesn't this mean asking Sun Tzu Yi to be his barrier to Zhao Kaishan?
If the Jin army wants to attack, it will most likely come from the north. The cavalry will go directly south to Shandong. As long as there are no floods, the journey will be smooth.
He was about to face the iron hooves of the Jin Army's cavalry.
Although this was a matter of time, it was really unpleasant to be arranged directly and maliciously by Zhao Kaishan.
Seeing that Sun Ziyi was silent, Zhao Kaishan continued with a smile and said: "After I went back and thought about the dissatisfaction that brother Ziyi raised before, I felt that it was indeed inappropriate. Those who have merit must be rewarded, and those who have committed mistakes must be punished. This is the correct approach.
As the leader of the Liberation Army, how could I do something incorrect because of my own selfishness? So I thought about it and came up with an idea. I hope Ziyi can accept my apology. From now on, we will be leaders and generals in official matters. In private, the friendship in the past is still there. "
Zhao Kaishan looked at Sun Ziyi sincerely.
It’s as if that bold man is still there
But how could Sun Tzu Yi believe it?
As expected, he slapped the table and stood up.
"Zhao Kaishan!"
"Why can you call me the leader by his name?"
Zhao Kaishan's face darkened, and before he could speak, Zhao Xiang stood up.
Then Zhao Kaihe also stood up.
"Manager Sun, don't say anything you shouldn't say! You should know your identity!"
The rest of the Zhao clan also stared at Sun Ziyi fiercely.
Sun Tzu Yi laughed angrily.
"Identity? How old are you? Are you mentioning your identity to me? Even if you mention your identity, who do you think you are? I led the army to conquer the three states and achieved many results. What credit do you have, and you dare to talk to me like this?"
Sun Ziyi angrily rebuked Zhao Xiang and Zhao Kaihe. The two men looked ugly, but they didn't know how to refute Sun Zi Yi, because strictly speaking, Zhao Xiang had no military exploits, and Zhao Kaihe had relatively few military exploits.
Seeing that the two of them were speechless, Sun Ziyi looked at Zhao Kaishan with a sneer.
"The ancients said that the birds are gone and the good bows are hidden, and the cunning rabbits are dead and the lackeys are cooking. Zhao is the leader! Let me ask you, are the birds gone? Is the cunning rabbit dead?! Did the Emperor of the Jin Kingdom die suddenly?!"
When it came to the latter part, Sun Ziyi was already gritting his teeth.
"Ziyi, don't get me wrong. I'm just demarcating the garrison of each army, standardizing the military regulations, military system, and establishing the system of the Liberation Army. It's not for other things. If the Liberation Army wants to fight against gold, it must change itself."
Zhao Kaishan was not happy. He suppressed the anger in his heart and tried to put on a magnanimous look to explain to Sun Ziyi.
"You know what I'm talking about is not about the station. You asked me and Yuting to go north, and you went westward yourself? The East and West Roads in Shandong are in flames, and the Damingfu Road is in danger. You go pick up the ready-made ones, and let Yuting and I help you in the north. Blocking the golden thief? You are so calculating!"
Sun Tzu Yi gritted his teeth, veins popped out on his forehead, and he was obviously extremely angry.
"Not to mention anything else, I captured the three coastal states, so you can change them as you please? Can you make the decision?"
When Sun Ziyi said this, Zhao Kaishan suddenly stopped being angry.
He looked at Sun Ziyi with strange eyes and suddenly smiled.
"I am the general manager of Shandong. No matter Shandong East Road or Shandong East Road, I am the general manager. Why can't I be the master?"
"Really?"
"certainly."
Zhao Kaishan and Sun Ziyi looked at each other, and the atmosphere between them became quite sinister. For a moment, there was a tense situation.
But this atmosphere soon ended.
Because Zhao Kaishan announced three appointments.
"By the way, Ziyi, I forgot to tell you that I still have three appointments that have not been announced. In the name of the General Manager of Shandong, I will appoint Li Qi as the General Manager of Dengzhou, Zhang Yan as the General Manager of Laizhou, and Zhu Chaohai as the General Manager of Ninghai Prefecture. .”
Sun Ziyi was stunned.
Su Yonglin was also surprised for a moment, and then suddenly realized.
Good guy, no wonder Zhao Kaishan has the confidence to do this kind of thing, it turns out he has a back-up plan.
After Sun Ziyi was stunned, he turned his head in disbelief and looked at some of the people sitting behind him.
Then the three people stood up decisively, without Sun Ziyi calling them.
"Li Qi takes the order!"
"Zhang Yan takes the order!"
"Zhu Chaohai takes the order!"
These three people are quite famous and powerful locals in the three coastal states, and they belong to the category of local snakes.
Sun Tzu Yi could successfully defeat the Jin soldiers of the three states and occupy the local area without the help of these three people, so he also promised them quite generous rewards and benefits, and promised to safeguard their interests.
But Sun Ziyi forgot or did not notice that there was no other bond between them except interests.
Compliance in exchange for interests will definitely be overshadowed by greater interests, which will lead to betrayal.
Zhao Kaishan had a higher reputation and greater authority, and gave them something that Sun Tzu Yi could not give, so of course they would choose greater benefits.
For some reason, this scene suddenly reminded Su Yonglin of Shi Dakai, the Wing King of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom.
He paid the local chieftain to use the road to pass, but the local chieftain was later bribed by Luo Bingzhang at a higher price, and he betrayed Shi Dakai backhand, cutting off his retreat.
In the end, Shi Dakai was defeated and died at the Dadu River.
Sun Ziyi finally realized that the situation had changed and he was betrayed.
The small force that had just formed was disintegrated by Zhao Kaishan in just one night.
And he didn't even notice.
So he became the loser without a doubt.
