After Zhou Zibin said this, he waved his hand to take Fang Jingzhi down.
Even though Fang Jingzhi was cursing behind him, he remained calm in his heart, and then sat on the chair very calmly, looking at the calm sea in the distance.
Zhou Zibin had waited for so long and finally had such a good opportunity. How could the personnel Su Qi'an installed in Dongzhou hide it from him.
Fang Jingzhi and several county guards, no matter how vigilant they are, who can fight him? To him, these people are just accompanying him to fool him.
The reason why he dared to take action at this time, without hesitation to reveal his identity and true intentions, was also carefully considered.
What forced Zhou Zibin to make the greatest determination was thanks to those at the rear. Feng Nan, who has been planning for him for so many years.
Perhaps it was God's will, and God insisted on siding with him. Not long after Su Qi'an led his army on the expedition, he received a secret report from Feng Nan.
The news Feng Nan brought him was too important, just like he told Feng Nan before leaving, asking him to pay more attention to Shen Wanfu.
Sure enough, not long after Zhou Zibin left Jiujun, Shen Wanfu showed his flaws. Feng Nan immediately ordered people to conduct a secret investigation and found evidence of the contacts between Shen Wanfu and Su Qi'an.
Not only that, but there was also a shocking discovery. Traces of the dead Shen Yang and Fan Chong were found in Zigui County.
This made Feng Nan stunned for a long time. After repeated confirmation, it was indeed these two people.
After Feng Nan came to his senses, he made a decisive decision and immediately organized troops to arrest them secretly. After several days of ambush, and after killing and injuring a number of his men, he finally captured the two men.
Not only that, after arresting the two, they even traced the clues to Shen Wanfu. Now the Houjiu County is basically under Feng Nan's control.
It was the news that allowed Zhou Zibin to plan and act without any scruples.
Feng Nan has been with him for many years and can still help him at critical moments. The decision to keep Feng Nan in Houjiu County seems to be correct now.
The three chess pieces placed in the rear, Shen Wanfu, Shen Yang, and Fan Chong, were something Zhou Zibin did not expect. He originally thought that one Shen Wanfu would be the limit.
Unexpectedly, Su Qi'an was able to swap two people who were destined to die and use them for his own purposes. This really surprised Zhou Zibin.
Although he didn't know what the purpose of these two people was, they were very harsh-spoken when they were caught, and they didn't say anything about torture. Zhou Zibin didn't care too much about this.
As long as they are caught, these people will be his biggest support to check and balance Su Qi'an. As for their purpose, it is nothing more than to collect evidence that he collaborated with the enemy and betrayed the country.
The people were already in his hands, and it would be useless to search for more evidence. After controlling the last nine counties, Feng Nan set off immediately according to Zhou Zibin's instructions and quickly brought these people to the front line to join him.
With these people, even if Su Qi'an comes back alive, he will be extremely afraid.
The Zhoushan Island War in which Su Qi'an, Wu Dingguo and others were trapped, as well as the so-called Dongzhou soldiers who escaped and returned, were all arranged by Zhou Zibin.琇书蛧
The purpose was to transfer the remaining frontline soldiers such as Qin Zhen. These people were successfully transferred, and the nine frontline counties were naturally taken over by him.
After shrinking to the rear nine counties for so many years, Zhou Zibin has always been obsessed with getting involved in the front nine counties.
Dongzhou is so big, its area is comparable to the other two states in Daliang, and the first nine counties have always been the front line. As a state pastor, what he does is to raise food and grass to provide frontline troops.
After all, he was a state pastor, but his military power was inferior to that of Wu Dingguo. This was something Zhou Zibin could not accept.
He is the state pastor, and of course he has his own ambition, which is to unify the entire Dongzhou.
If Wu Dingguo hadn't been wary of him and guarded against him, the first nine counties would have been invaded by him long ago. After waiting for so long, Su Qi'an and Wu Dingguo finally went on an expedition.
And he came to the first nine counties on the grounds of escorting grain and grass, and at the same time to set an example for the soldiers in the state. Even if others had excuses, it was hard to say anything.
Zai, Fang Jingzhi and other county guards had been playing the emotional card for so long, and in their capacity as state shepherds, they finally forced Qin Zhen to lead his army to leave.
The current front line, the most important three counties, are all under his control.
Next, even if Su Qi'an defeated Zhoushan Island with the support of Qin Town and returned after hearing the news, he would have been ready to welcome the arrival of Su Qi'an's army.
The three counties and cities on the front line were basically taken over by his troops. When Su Qi'an returned, Zhou Zibin would launch an attack on the charge of colluding with pirates and Japanese pirates.
As for the evidence, haha, Shen Wanfu, Shen Yang, Fan Chong, and Fang Jingzhi are the biggest evidence.
If Su Qi'an dared to attack by force, it would play into his heart, which meant that Su Qi'an jumped over the wall in a hurry, saw through the conspiracy, and wanted to kill himself to silence him.
In terms of eloquence, Su Qi'an is not the only one who knows how to control people's hearts.
And most importantly, Zhou Zibin controlled the largest granary base on the front line.
It is said that Su Qi'an was stupid or overconfident for leaving the food and fodder under escort in Sanming County.
The last time it was placed in Sanming County, it was to lure Jiro Sakai into an ambush.
But this time, the location of the granary has not changed. Do you really think that Fang Jingzhi and a few people can control him?
It can only be said that Su Qi'an is too confident. The current Sanming County City has been quietly captured by the three thousand pirates he let in.
With food, hostages, and important counties and cities occupied, it can be said that the time and place are favorable. Such a good opportunity would be damned if Zhou Zibin failed.
As for the three thousand pirates who were put ashore, Zhou Zibin naturally had his own intentions.
Yamashita Yong wanted to take advantage of Su Qi'an's lack of troops in Dongzhou to storm Zhoushan Island, and rely on 3,000 men to make a surprise attack from the rear. This was his plan.
Zhou Zibin agreed. These three thousand people were Yamashita Isamu's hope for a comeback, but to Zhou Zibin, it was just his merit.
If Zhoushan Island is captured and Yamashita Yong is killed, these three thousand people will be Zhou Zibin's best military achievement to show his loyalty to the court.
On the other hand, if Su Qi'an was defeated and returned to defense, these three thousand men would be the most effective force in his hands.
For the pirates on Zhoushan Island, the person they hate most now is not the Commander-in-Chief Wu Dingguo, but Su Qi'an who is directing the war in Dongzhou.
If Su Qi'an was defeated and returned, there would be no need for Zhou Zibin's orders. These three thousand people would look for opportunities to kill Su Qi'an no matter what.
Zhou Zibin could reap the benefits without wasting any effort. When Su Qi'an returns, he will die.
In any case, it was impossible for him to leave Dongzhou alive, and even Zhou Zibin had prepared a memorial to explain to the court that Su Qi'an was killed.
During the Dongzhou War, Su Qi'an colluded with pirates and deliberately lured the army into dispatch. They were ambushed and suffered heavy losses. The commander-in-chief Wu Dingguo refused to retreat and eventually died of exhaustion.
Su Qi'an took the opportunity to lead the pirates to counterattack Dongzhou. Fortunately, Zhou Zibin led the army to turn the tide and blocked Su Qi'an's counterattack. In the melee, the supervisor Su Qi'an was shot and killed by an arrow, and he died innocently.
This kind of rhetoric sounds unbelievable and unbelievable, but as long as Su Qi'an and Wu Dingguo die.
Even if the court sends people to investigate, what can they find out when faced with two corpses?
By that time, with the connections and prestige he had accumulated from being in the position of Dongzhou Mu for many years, he would not be able to say that he could cover the sky with one hand, but that was basically the case.
I have been waiting for such a long time and have such a perfect layout. I am really grateful to Su Qian.
If it hadn't been for his arrival, Zhou Zibin might not have been able to kill two birds with one stone and get rid of the people he wanted to get rid of.
And after this battle, no matter whether the remaining pirates and Japanese pirates are eliminated or not, they will not become a serious problem after all.
If Fusang wants to invade Dongzhou again, he must make careful decisions. As the supreme commander of Dongzhou, it will be the Fusang royal family who will beg him in the future, rather than him communicating with the head of a small Japanese pirate group like he is now. dialogue.
This is a great shame for Zhou Zibin, who has ambitions.
Now that this shame is about to pass, Zhou Zibin feels a little excited when looking at the calm sea in front of him.
He is now very much looking forward to meeting Su Qi'an as soon as possible to help him "help".
"Inspector, Chief Superintendent, please come back as soon as possible. Honshu is very anxious to wait."
At this time, Qin Zhen, who urgently went to sea for support, led 20,000 Dongzhou soldiers and headed towards Zhoushan Island as quickly as possible.
He stood at the bow of the ship with a solemn expression. Before the entire army set off, he had given orders to be prepared to be ambushed at any time.
Although this may be small, we are not afraid of ten thousand, just afraid of the unexpected. While driving at full speed, we did not encounter any accidents along the way.
But the more smoothly it went, the more uneasy it made Qin Zhen feel. After about an hour, their warship finally approached Zhoushan Island.
Although there was some distance between them, Zhoushan Island was ablaze at this time, and the sea breeze was filled with a strong smell of blood.
Obviously, there was a fierce battle.
Qin Zhen ordered the warships to quickly approach the island. As the warships docked on the beach, the situation on the island became clearer.
You can see stumps and broken arms everywhere, and in the burning fire, you can see charred catapults, rocket cars, etc.
But such a fierce battle was filled with deathly silence, which gave people a creepy feeling.
Qin Zhen's face was solemn, and his soldiers quickly went to the island according to various formations.
A large number of soldiers landed on the island. Qin Zhen stood on the beach and looked around. From the broken limbs and destroyed heavy weapons, he could feel the brutality of the battle to land on the island.
As many soldiers advanced, news soon came that the island was deserted.
This made Qin Zhen's face become more solemn. Even in a fierce battle, it was impossible for no one to be left alive?
The only explanation is probably that there was some unexpected situation, which prevented the troops from being dispersed, so there was no one on the island.
Just when Qin Zhen was about to give the order, some people were left on the island, while the rest took boats and continued to explore along the nearby waters.
Suddenly, soldiers from the island came to report.
"Sir, we are only a few miles away from the inner island. There is a warship from Great Liang approaching. Due to the color of the sky, we can't tell whether it is an enemy or a friend."
"Everyone listen to the order and prepare to fight immediately!"
Qin Zhen did not panic and quickly issued combat orders.
The unidentified warship that suddenly appeared in this place was probably not a good enemy. It occupied a favorable position and was ready to fight at any time. This was a necessary behavior for a military commander.
