Facing Yin Biao's confused eyes, Sun Jingan said calmly but confidently:
"If the Fengwu Army had not suffered heavy casualties in Hebei and Henan, the Fengwu Army would have entered Qilu by now instead of negotiating peace with us now... ·····”
Yin Biao was stunned for a moment when he heard this, and then nodded as he thought it made sense. Seeing this, Sun Jingan continued to encourage:
"The population of Hebei and Yu is larger than that of Youyan and Liaoyang combined. It will take a while for the Fengwu Army to capture it. And Shangguan Hongyuan is ready to make a move in the Yunbin area. The Yunbin War is bound to break out next year. Ye Mingsheng They don’t even care about our Qilu situation!”
"As long as we are willing to surrender, the Fengwu Army will not do anything to us. When the time comes, brother Yin, you will be the commander-in-chief of Qilu and in charge of the Qi army, and I will be the chief envoy. You and I will rule Qilu together, one civil and one military, and we will give back to the people." Peace, isn’t it a great thing?”
"The situation in Qilu is here now. We are all unhappy if Cao Changping is not dead. He definitely wants to continue fighting with the Fengwu Army. Duan Yanfeng is completely defeated this time. It is very likely that he will lead the army next time. Brother Yin, do you want to fight with the Fengwu Army?"
In response to Sun Jing'an's rhetorical question, Yin Biao did not speak but his face became more gloomy. Although he disliked Duan Yanfeng very much, as a battlefield veteran, he knew that Duan Yanfeng had done everything he could on the battlefield. If he commanded this battle In battle, it is impossible to do better than Duan Yanfeng.
Seeing that Yin Biao didn't speak, Sun Jing'an was a little disappointed, and then he played the last bargaining chip in his hand.
"Brother Yin only has one chance. Don't miss it and never come back. Because you haven't given a reply yet, Fengwu Army has decided to contact other people. I don't care, but you are different..." ···············”
As soon as these words came out, Yin Biao immediately looked serious. Although he, Yin Biao, has a lot of power in the army and a group of very trustworthy people, this does not mean that he is the only one who has this advantage. If others are allowed to take the lead, If you want to cooperate with Fengwu Army, then Yin Biao may be purged!
After pondering for a while, he asked Sun Jing'an:
"How to solve the issue of compensation for defeat and prisoners of war of our army?"
Sun Jing'an said without thinking:
"The Fengwu Army has already promised that as long as we overthrow Cao Changping and surrender to the Fengwu Army, the defeat compensation will be canceled and all our prisoners of war can be released. In addition, the Fengwu Army can even support us with a sum of money and food. As for the money and food, The specific amount needs to be discussed in detail with Fengwu Army after we take over!"
"The conditions of Fengwu Army are so good?" Yin Biao asked in surprise:
He originally thought that after surrendering to the Fengwu Army, the Fengwu Army would ask them for a large sum of money and food, but he never expected that the Fengwu Army would be willing to support them and give them a large sum of money and food.
Sun Jing'an smiled and nodded and said:
"I said, Brother Yin, Qilu is a big province after all. Even if a lot of people have flowed out in recent years, the total population is about the same as Youyan and Liaoyang combined. In terms of territory, Youyan is not small. We are now joining the Fengwu Army. The Fengwu Army gave us some benefits, and they took a big advantage!"
When Yin Biao heard this, a ruthless look flashed in his eyes, he nodded heavily at Sun Jing'an and said:
"Since Cao Changping is unkind, don't blame me for being unjust. I did this..."
After receiving Yin Biao's affirmative answer, Sun Jing'an's face suddenly showed a hint of joy, and he said immediately:
"Without further delay! Brother Yin, let's take action tonight!"
Yin Biao was a little surprised when he said this. Although he made the final decision under Sun Jing'an's persuasion, he did not expect that Sun Jing'an would be so anxious and wanted to take action tonight, but he was not prepared for anything!
Seeing the hesitation on Yin Biao's face, Sun Jing'an advised:
"Brother Yin, Meng Qingxing, and Wang He are in the city now. If we capture Cao Changping tonight, we can seize these two men. In this way, their troops will be leaderless afterwards. Why don't they be left to our control? "
"And the most important thing is, didn't your brother Xie Wei switch the defense to Licheng last month? He has three thousand troops in his hands. Fan Shan from the City Defense Department is my man. He has one thousand men in his hands. Licheng is currently garrisoned. The total strength of the troops does not exceed ten thousand, and our manpower is nearly 50%! This is a God-given opportunity!"
After hearing Sun Jing'an's analysis, Yin Biao realized the opportunity in front of him. He thought about it seriously and then gritted his teeth and said:
"That's fine! It's a long night and a lot of dreams, tonight is the night!"
After receiving Yin Biao's affirmative reply, Sun Jing'an told him all about his plans:
"At midnight tonight, I will arrange for men to set fire to the city to cause chaos. Then Brother Yin, you will lead troops to Cao Mansion under the pretext of protecting Cao Changping. Kill Cao Changping when you see him, and then put the matter on Meng Qingxing and Wang He. I We will send people to catch them, and when the time comes they won’t be able to explain it, so this matter will be considered a success..."
After thinking about it carefully, he felt that there was nothing wrong with Sun Jing'an's plan. Yin Biao took a deep breath and said in a deep voice:
"Okay! I, Yin, am willing to risk everything, and that's what I'll do tonight!"
Upon hearing this, Sun Jing'an patted Yin Biao's shoulder and comforted him with a smile:
"Brother Yin, don't worry, at this time tomorrow, Qilu will belong to you and me!"
After planning everything, Yin Biao did not stay in the Sun Mansion any longer. He still wanted to find his brother Fan Shan. Fan Shan had three thousand troops, but the top priority of this plan was that he must Take control with your own hands.
After Yin Biao left, Sun Jing'an sat on a chair and drank tea by himself. A moment later, he didn't know what the prefect of Licheng thought of. His originally calm expression suddenly turned ferocious, and he forcefully took out the tea bowl he cherished in his hand. Crush it into pieces, then ignore the porcelain shards that pricked your palms and smeared with blood, and murmured viciously:
"Kill Cao Changping tonight, and tomorrow it will be your turn, you whore. I will make your whole family regret why you did this to me!"
The only reason why Sun Jing'an wanted to take action tonight was that, apart from the reason he analyzed with Yin Biao, there was another reason hidden in his heart, which was to take revenge on Cao Changping and his wife Cao Shi. After Cao Changping became successful, he was inseparable from all kinds of contempt and contempt for him. This brought a deep inferiority complex to Sun Jing'an, and at the same time, it also gave him strong thoughts of revenge... ···········
Because Cao Changping did not show his decline before, Sun Jingan could only hide his thoughts silently in his heart, put on the cuckold on his head, and endured the scorn and ridicule of his colleagues and subordinates. However, Su Yi's provocation and encouragement made him realize He could rely on the Fengwu Army to retaliate against the Cao family.
The fire of revenge was getting bigger and bigger in Sun Jing'an's heart, burning more and more intensely. He couldn't wait to see the adulteress kneeling at his feet begging for mercy, and then watching helplessly as he killed their whole family. Sun Jing'an He believed that the taste of that moment would be extremely wonderful, and for this he was willing to risk everything in his life, no matter what!

Yijing, Governor's Mansion
In the study, Ye Mingsheng, who was leaning on the back of his chair, was quietly listening to Wang Xuecheng's report.
"Report to the Commander-in-Chief, the cleanup plan in Jiyu is now nearing completion. The bandit leader Feng Sanxi and other 181 people have been executed at the entrance of Yujing Vegetable Market. In this plan, our army has received a total of more than 3.1 million taels of silver and food. Nearly 1.7 million stones, 50,000 taels of gold, about 3,000 other gold and silver jewelry items, and more than 10,000 pieces of porcelain, antiques, calligraphy, paintings, and artifacts!”
"According to your instructions, Marshal, in order to appease the gentry in Hebei and Henan, our army returned about half of the porcelain, antiques, toys, calligraphy and paintings to them, 30% of the gold, silver and jewelry, and 30% of the silver. There are more than 10,000 taels. Currently, our army has a total of 2.8 million taels of silver and 1.7 million shi of grain in its warehouses in Hebei Province. As for the 50,000 taels of gold, it has been loaded and transported back according to your instructions, Commander-in-Chief. It’s ready, it will arrive in about five days!”
"As for the Gao family, with our active persuasion, they are willing to donate all their land in Yujing and most of their belongings to our army for free. Their entire family has also set off for Liaoyang to prepare for the war there. settle down!"
Listening to Wang Xuecheng's report, Ye Mingsheng was very emotional. Although he had long known that these gentry families in Jiyu were very wealthy, to be honest, Ye Mingsheng was still shocked to get such a figure.
After taking a deep look at Wang Xuecheng, Ye Mingsheng said lightly:
"Did you keep your share?"
Wang Xuecheng smiled awkwardly as soon as he said this. He knew that there were "inner guards" there, and he and Huo San's little moves could not be hidden from Ye Mingsheng.
Although the money and food seized in the cleaning plan was huge, Ye Mingsheng knew that even such a figure was only after Yan Guo left hair at the Central Coordination Office. However, according to the internal security report, Wang Xuecheng and Huo San also knew that their spies were watching. They, so they didn't do too much, they just picked up some scraps.
Therefore, Ye Mingsheng does not intend to pursue the case. After all, there will be no fish if the water is clear. Intelligence departments like the Coordination Office do shady things. It is unrealistic for them to become upright officials one by one. Moreover, this time In Xia Jiyu, the Coordination Office played a huge role. If they had not organized the rebel army to attract the energy of the Henan army in the early stage of the war, the war in Jiyu would not have ended so quickly.
"Don't eat alone!" Ye Mingsheng warned Wang Xuecheng:
In response to Ye Mingsheng's warning, Wang Xuecheng nodded repeatedly and said:
"Brothers, we have distributed it in your name, sir. Please rest assured!"
Ye Mingsheng nodded with satisfaction after hearing this. After pondering for a moment, he looked at Wang Xuecheng and asked:
"I heard that you gave Xu Zhaojie a big gift at the banquet celebrating his arrival in the city..."
Wang Xuecheng smiled bitterly and nodded, and said helplessly:
"Xu Zhaojie, the bastard, is lucky. It only broke two of his fingers, but didn't kill him!"
He had been preparing for this assassination for a long time. Before Xu Zhaojie could break through Shouchun City, he realized that Shouchun's fall was only a matter of time, so he specially arranged his men to enter Tianquan, the most famous restaurant in Shouchun City. Pavilion, he bet on where Xu Zhaojie would hold a celebration banquet, and he guessed correctly. However, Xu Zhaojie was indeed very lucky. Facing the grenades thrown at him, he quickly pulled up a human shield and blocked most of them for him. s damage
Although compared with the previous assassinations, this time not only killed Xu Zhaojie, but also broke off two of Xu Zhaojie's fingers, which was a great improvement. But thinking about the Haikou that Ye Mingsheng had praised that he had vowed to do before, Wang Xuecheng I still felt a little embarrassed, so I didn't take the initiative to mention this matter to Ye Mingsheng.
Listening to Wang Xuecheng's story, Ye Mingsheng had a playful smile on his face. He didn't have much hope for Wang Xuecheng's assassination this time, so he couldn't be disappointed. If Xu Zhaojie was so easy to assassinate, this bastard He didn't know how many times he had died, and Ye Mingsheng found it very funny when he thought that Xu Zhaojie only had eight fingers left.
Seeing that Ye Mingsheng didn't seem very angry, Wang Xuecheng plucked up the courage to introduce the detailed situation to Ye Mingsheng...
"I'm telling you, your lord, the people responsible for this mission are the hidden stakes in Shouchun. They are dead soldiers of our army. They are not under the control of the hidden stakes in the Anqing army. Both sides are unaware of each other's existence and are carrying out assassinations. After that, all three of them committed suicide by taking poison, and they were not caught alive by the Anqing Army!"
"Although the Anqing Army carried out a clean-up campaign in Shouchun after this incident, our army's informants had gone underground, and only a few insignificant small fish were caught by the Anqing Army. After the news passed, Shouchun The spring branch can then resume operations."
"The only strange thing is that Xu Zhaojie should have known that the assassination was carried out by our Coordination Office, but he framed the matter on the Feng family and executed more than 3,000 people from the Feng family and its related families. The blood once covered the Huaihe River It’s all stained red!”
The smile on Ye Mingsheng's face became three points thicker when he heard this. He knew that Xu Zhaojie was incompetently furious. If he publicly said that he did this matter, then he would inevitably take revenge on himself, but he He doesn't have this ability now, so if it's just words and no actual actions, then it will undoubtedly hurt his prestige and his face!
Therefore, Lord Zhou Zhenyuan, who had no choice but to unleash his overwhelming anger on the poor Feng family, let this group of innocent people silently shoulder the blame... ·················
