The end of the military era

He Zhonghou said with a wry smile: "Master Lu must be very clear about the situation in our Zhenwei Jiedu Mansion.

In the previous battle with the Fengwu Army, the family property of the Jiedu Mansion had already been drained, otherwise it would not have been too late to provide a large-scale replenishment to the damaged direct line troops.

Moreover, according to the current financial situation of the Jiedu Mansion, perhaps after a period of time, several direct-line troops will even be in arrears with their salaries.

In addition, many of the following families that control military power are very dissatisfied with the general's practice of ceding the Jingyang area.

Many cities have made it clear that they will suspend the payment of taxes to the Jiedu Mansion for the next few years to make up for the losses of the families in the Jingyang Battle.

This time the commander is anxious to regain Jingsheng City, part of the reason is to divert the internal conflicts in Zhenwei Town. "

After a pause, He Zhonghou continued, "The current Zhenwei Jiedu Mansion is like a crumbling ship.

Since Mr. Lu wants to go ashore before the ship sinks, brother, I certainly don't want to sink into the water with the ship. "

Lu Qiudao secretly sighed in his heart: I chose the right one, it seems that Zhenwei Jiedu Mansion is really hopeless.

"He Zhichang, how did you know that I was connected with Mr. Hu Er from the Zhou family in Ganyang?"

He Zhonghou said bluntly: "Mr. Lu, our intelligence office is not a display, and now I have in my hands dozens of officers who secretly communicated with the Zhou family in Ganyang.

But among them, Mr. Lu has the highest position, so I came to Mr. Lu, hoping that Mr. Lu could help introduce that Mr. Hu Er.

If the Ganyang Zhou family's appetite is big enough, maybe Master Lu doesn't need to rush his family to leave Linxing City. "

After Hu Er saw He Zhonghou, he couldn't help but secretly blame himself.

I was too careless, and even a little rushed.

If it wasn't for the director of the Zhenwei Jiedu Mansion's intelligence department, he would have had a second heart about Zhenwei Jiedu Mansion, and if he couldn't handle it, "Ghost Shadow" would have to suffer a big loss in Linxing City this time.

"Our Ganyang Zhou family has long hoped to make friends with Director He, but we have never had a way to get in touch with Director He before. We did not expect Director He to come to us on our own initiative."

"Mr. Fox, although I, He Zhonghou, do not have military power, I can recommend a few people to your Ganyang Zhou family.

It is no exaggeration to say that with the help of me, Master Lu and those few people, even if the Zhou family in Ganyang replaces Zhenwei Jiedu Mansion, there should be no problem. "

Hu Er asked calmly: "What does Director He want?"

"Silver coins! 800 million silver coins!"

"make a deal!"

On the evening of January 1th, on the bridge of the flagship of the Haiphong Fleet, Zhenhai, Zhou Rui passed the secret telegram sent by Hu Er to Song Limin, "I didn't expect the situation in Zhenwei Jiedu Mansion to be so bad. The Zhou family has a chance."

Song Limin quickly read the content of the telegram, and his face could not help showing ecstasy, "Major General, this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity!

If our Zhou family can eat up several direct-line troops of Zhenwei Jiedu Mansion, then Linxing City will be at our fingertips.

And controlling Linxing City is equivalent to controlling the entire Zhenwei Town in name! "

The secret telegram sent by Hu Er said that thanks to the matchmaking of He Zhonghou, the director of the Zhenwei Jiedu Mansion Intelligence Department, "Ghost Shadow" can be said to have overfulfilled the task in Zhenwei Town.

Except for the children of the Xu family, the high-level officers currently stationed in the first division, second division and third division of the Zhenwei Army in Linxing City were basically taken down by the "ghost shadow" money offensive.

In addition, many officers from the [-]th Division, [-]st Mixed Brigade, [-]nd Mixed Brigade, and [-]rd Mixed Brigade of the Zhenwei Army stationed in other cities have secretly joined Ganyang Zhou's family.

Hu Er suggested to change the plan made before, and directly mobilize the first, second and third divisions of the Zhenwei Army in Linxing City to carry out countermeasures and seize the opportunity to seize Linxing City.

Zhou Rui pondered for a while and said: "However, if our Zhou family wants to completely control Linxing City, it is not enough to rely on the three infantry divisions who are ready to go anyway.

We must send a team of our Zhou family into Linxing City! "

Song Limin immediately suggested: "Major General, Jingsheng City now has the [-]st Infantry Brigade and the [-]th Infantry Brigade of the garrison division. It is absolutely possible to dispatch an infantry brigade to Linxing City."

In order to strengthen the defense of Jingsheng City, after the troops of the Second Infantry Brigade of the Garrison Division and the No.20 Second Independent Brigade left Jingsheng City with the coastal defense fleet, the Fourth Infantry Brigade of the Garrison Division, which was originally stationed in Ganyang City, immediately Entered Jingsheng City.

Zhou Rui frowned and said: "But Jingsheng City is more than 600 kilometers away from Linxing City, and there are several cities in between.

Moreover, there are more than 1 people in an infantry brigade, so there is no way to guarantee concealment. "

Song Limin hesitated for a moment and said, "Major General, maybe the director of the Zhenwei Jiedu Mansion's intelligence office will have a solution. After all, he controls the entire intelligence system of the Zhenwei Army, which is equivalent to the eyes and eyes of the Zhenwei Jiedu Mansion." ear."

Zhou Rui's eyes lit up, "Then send the [-]st Infantry Brigade of the garrison division to Linxing City, and ask Song Shenghe to contact Hu Er immediately to discuss how the [-]st Infantry Brigade of the garrison division can reach Linxing City smoothly."

Then Zhou Rui asked, "Old Song, when can we arrive at Xiangshi Island?"

"We will arrive at Xiangshi Island tomorrow morning."

"Hope it's a nice day tomorrow."

Although Zhou Rui kept saying that he was not afraid to fight desperately with the Third Fleet of the Silver Wolf Empire Navy.

But what Zhou Rui most wanted to see was that the Third Fleet of the Silver Wolf Empire Navy could choose to retreat in the face of the sudden emergence of 6 battleships with full main guns and 8 battlecruisers.

I hope the opposing commander can be more rational.

When He Zhonghou learned that the Zhou family in Ganyang was going to send an infantry brigade with a strength of 1 to Xingcheng, he patted his chest and assured Hu Er: "Don't worry, Mr. Fox, all the telegraph rooms in Zhenwei Jiedu Mansion are mine. people.

As long as I block the news, Xu Wanpeng will not know even if the infantry brigade is outside Linxing City. "

Hu Er said with a smile: "I can only let Director He worry more.

Where is the head, how about staying in our Ganyang Zhou family in the future? "

He Zhonghou shrugged and said: "With 800 million silver coins, I have to enjoy the rest of my life, and I am not going to play those intrigues anymore.

What's more, for a person like me who can even betray his relatives, I think your major general will not be at ease when he uses it. "

Chapter 1 Blood Skull Flag

In the early morning of January 1, Yerk, who was still asleep, was suddenly awakened by a rapid knock on the door outside the cabin.

Yerk put on his pajamas, opened the cabin door, and found that the first mate Os was knocking on the door.

"General, in the southwest direction, we found the main force of the coastal defense fleet of Ganyang City.

It is unbelievable that the coastal defense fleet of Ganyang City has more than a dozen battleships with full main guns! "

Yerk was taken aback for a moment, "A battleship with full main guns?"

Then Yerk suddenly reached out and touched Oss's cheek, "It's warm, I'm not dreaming!

Oss, do I have an auditory hallucination? You mean that the Ganyang City Coastal Defense Fleet has more than a dozen battleships with full main guns? "

First Officer Oss said with a very solemn expression: "General, although this is really unbelievable.

However, a light cruiser and a destroyer in charge of guarding in the southwest direction both sent the same call.
