Chapter 1211. Stealing the beam and changing the column.
…
…
After He Yu was kidnapped by gangsters, Ximen Sheng also had his own thoughts.
For example, Ximen Sheng paid special attention to the mutual trade between Liaoyang, Shenyang, and Fushun. He also considered how he should maximize his own interests once He Yu was killed, and even had a competition for the general soldiers. The thought of position.
But objectively speaking, anyone can have this kind of selfishness, and most of the time, Ximen Sheng considers He Yu wholeheartedly, not only rescuing He Yu without any reservation, but even to maintain He Yu's power and status. , once offended three other generals at the same time.
It can be said that Ximen Sheng is completely worthy of He Yu, a sworn brother, and also worthy of his brotherly loyalty.
Therefore, when Ximen Sheng saw the contents of the secret letter, he found that He Yu was only suspicious of himself, fearful of himself, and trying to balance himself. It was like a blow to the head and a shower of ice water, which was very heart-breaking.
This emotion filled Ximen Sheng's heart, so much so that Ximen Sheng just wanted to leave here as soon as possible and never pay attention to He Yu's affairs again.
Therefore, after hearing Lu Shiwen's answer, Ximen Sheng just sighed, and then closed his eyes in silence. He no longer had the intention to pay attention to the reactions of the other people, and he had no intention of turning the situation around.
At the same time, the three generals Li Zehe, Gan Cheng, and Xu Zha all had subtle expressions and kept communicating with each other with their eyes; Shi Cheng still had a look of disbelief on his face, constantly thinking about various possibilities; Li Shijie's expression changed It didn't stop, as if he was hesitating about something.
Just like that, everyone remained silent, and the atmosphere fell into an awkward silence.
At this time, it was still Jiang Quan of the Forbidden Army who took the lead to break the deadlock.
I saw Jiang Quan walking up to several senior military attachés in Liaodong Town and asking, "I don't know, but what exactly is written in this secret letter from General He? Can I let the subordinates have a look at it?"
This time, everyone in Liaodong Town was united and firmly rejected Jiang Quan's request.
Li Zehe put the cloth in his arms and said slowly, neither softly nor hardly: "In this secret letter, the Commander-in-Chief did say some things, but these things are all domestic affairs within our Liaodong Town. , I won’t worry about you Imperial Army anymore!”
Afterwards, Gancheng directly spoke to chase people away and said in a cold voice: "This Forbidden Army Hundred Households, we people have things to discuss next, and they are all Liaodong secrets. You are not qualified to continue to listen... So, you now You can leave."
At the same time, Xu Zha, Shi Cheng, Li Shijie and others also looked at Jiang Quan coldly, with no concealment of rejection.
In this way, Jiang Quan was bored and had no ability to argue with everyone in Liaodong Town. He could only sneer and say with an awkward expression: "In this case, I will not disturb everyone in discussing the household affairs in Liaodong Town, and will leave now..." However, if you receive news about Zhao Gechen, or if there are other rescue arrangements, I hope you will inform Beizhi as soon as possible, so that Beizhi and the officers and soldiers of the Forbidden Army can also contribute."
After saying that, Jiang Quan bowed his hands and left quickly under the cold gaze of everyone in Liaodong Town.
After Jiang Quan, the unsightly outsider, left, the awkward atmosphere was somewhat relieved.
After Li Zehe and the other two generals looked at each other again, they took out the secret letter again, pretended to be businesslike and had no selfish thoughts, and said: "The Commander-in-Chief is really worthy of being called a famous general in the world.
, it is possible to establish contact with us under such circumstances...and now, since the Commander-in-Chief has given a clear explanation, we will naturally do our best to fulfill the Commander-in-Chief's instructions!"
Xu Zha nodded repeatedly, with the same look of shrewd and capable service, and said: "The Commander-in-Chief asked us to choose a suitable place outside the dense forest to light the smoke every evening, obviously to point out the direction and prevent him from escaping.
He lost his way in the dense forest, which means that the commander-in-chief may have thought of a way to save himself...
This is a great thing, which means that the Lord Commander’s waist injury is most likely faked. God really bless the Lord Commander...and we must try our best to cooperate with the Commander-in-Chief!"
Gancheng said loudly: "When I inspected the surrounding environment of the dense forest, I have discovered several suitable locations. We must screen them immediately and choose the best location...
At the same time, several teams of people must be organized to be ready to enter the dense forest at any time to meet the Commander-in-Chief... not only to meet the Commander-in-Chief, but also to take advantage of the situation to catch all the gangsters..."
Li Zehe added: "There is also the matter of investigating the origin of the gangsters. The Commander-in-Chief has provided us with a lot of key information, and the next investigation has a clear direction... I think it is better to leave this matter to the West Road garrison.
It's appropriate. They have been stationed in western Liaoning for a long time and have a better understanding of the situation of farmers in the defense area..."
While Li Zehe, Gan Cheng, and Xu Ya were expressing their opinions and working together, Ximen Sheng kept his eyes closed from beginning to end, showing no intention of offering any advice or suggestions.
And Li Zehe and others had no intention of dragging Ximen Sheng into participating. The three of them were all veteran generals in the border army, and they were all capable and knowledgeable. With just a few words from you and me, things were soon settled.
A series of detailed plans were formulated based on He Yu's secret letter.
After agreeing on all the plans related to rescue and investigation, Gan Cheng took the lead and couldn't wait to get down to business.
I saw Gan Cheng secretly glance at Ximen Sheng not far away, but then pretended that he just thought of it temporarily, and said: "Oh, by the way, the commander-in-chief also told us something, that is, let us
It is necessary to ensure the internal stability of Liaodong Town and decide everything together..."
When he mentioned the words "jointly decided", Gan Cheng deliberately emphasized his tone.
Xu Jia also echoed: "The request made by the Commander-in-Chief is very reasonable. In such a special period, we must advance together and retreat together, and be united! From now on, it will be up to us, the four generals...
…Oh, and we also need to add General Xilu Huangshen who is in bed to recuperate...there are five people in total, and we will decide everything after discussing together!"
Li Zehe added: "If there are different opinions, we will discuss and vote openly to build consensus to the greatest extent, and then make all decisions together based on the principle of the minority obeying the majority! What do you think?"
If Zhao Junchen heard Li Zehe's words like "open voting," "building consensus," and "the minority obeys the majority," he would definitely feel weird.
Afterwards, Li Zehe turned his head and glanced at Shi Cheng and Li Shijie, who were both silent not far away, and added again: "Also, when making decisions, it might be better to add Shi Qianhu and Li Qianhu to the decision-making process."
Although their official ranks are not high, they are also the actual commanders of the Liaodong cavalry, and Li Qianhu is also a direct descendant of the general Li family, which can be said to be very important, so we should also let them participate in the decision-making."
Hearing Li Zehe's proposal, Gan Cheng and Xu Zha were stunned for a moment, and then quickly figured out Li Zehe's true intention!
Certain thoughts, once they emerge from the mind, can never be eliminated.
Li Zehe, Gan Cheng, and Xu Jia, after being secretly catalyzed by Zhao Junchen, are now coveting the position of the commander-in-chief of Liaodong Town.
Under the current circumstances, He Yu's future life and death fate is still a matter full of suspense.
Whether it is He Yu's self-rescue idea or Liaodong Town's rescue plan, the execution is full of variables.
Therefore, the position of the Liaodong garrison commander may be vacant at any time, so Li Zehe, Gan Cheng, and Xu Ya still did not give up hope.
Perhaps, they are still secretly looking forward to the situation where the kidnappers will tear up the votes.
And once He Yu finally dies tragically at the hands of the kidnappers, then Li Zehe, Gan Cheng, and Xu Ya will inevitably compete fiercely for the position of commander-in-chief.
Under such circumstances, whoever can win the support of Shi Cheng and Li Shijie will be equivalent to gaining the support of the Liaodong cavalry and the general Li family, which will naturally increase their chances of winning.
Therefore, Li Zehe proposed that Shi Cheng and Li Shijie also have the right to vote on decision-making. Naturally, this was to show favor to Shi and Li.
After understanding this, both Gan Cheng and Xu Zha secretly scolded Li Zehe for being despicable and cunning.
But the next moment, they all expressed their agreement.
I heard Gan Cheng loudly say: "I have the same view, and I was about to raise it when I didn't expect General Li to speak first... Although these two Qianhu are still young and their official ranks are slightly lower, no matter their ability,
Loyalty is the best choice, and they should indeed take on more responsibilities. They must be given the opportunity to be independent, otherwise it will be a waste!"
Xu Jie looked at Shi Cheng and Li Shijie with an expression of appreciation, nodded and said: "Li Qianhu and Shi Qianhu are both outstanding leaders of the younger generation in Liaodong Town. Sooner or later, the important responsibilities of Liaodong Town will be handed over to them.
People should be entrusted with more important responsibilities! It is indeed a good thing to let the two of them participate in subsequent decisions!"
Li Zehe turned his eyes to Shi Cheng and Li Shijie and asked: "Shi Qianhu, Li Qianhu, what do you two think? Do you want to work together with us to jointly preside over the overall situation?"
After Shi Cheng hesitated for a moment, he finally felt that he should not give up this opportunity. He thought that after entering the decision-making circle, he could always play some positive role, so he handed over his hand and said: "Since several senior generals are so flattering to their humble positions,
, a humble position means you have to shoulder your responsibilities and do your best!”
Later, Li Shijie also nodded and said: "Since the seniors think highly of the juniors, the juniors will definitely give their full assistance to the seniors."
As he spoke, Li Shijie actually abandoned his military titles, calling several generals seniors, and calling himself juniors... This obviously hinted that he was not only expressing his position on his own behalf, but also on behalf of the Li family.
In this way, after seeing that everyone had reached a consensus, Li Zehe nodded again and said: "In this case, from now on, until the time when the commander-in-chief successfully escapes, all matters and decisions in Liaodong Town must go through the West Gate of North Road.
Generals, General Xu from the South Road, General Gan from the East Road, General Huang from the West Road, me, Li Qianhu and Shi Qianhu, a total of seven people can make the decision through joint discussion. No one can act without authorization..."
After saying that, Li Zehe finally remembered Ximen Sheng, who had been silent all this time, and turned to Ximen Sheng and asked: "General Ximen, everyone thinks this way, what do you think?"
Under the attention of everyone, Ximen Sheng's expression did not change at all, just like a wood carving. He just opened his eyes and looked around at everyone, and then said in a voice without any fluctuation in tone: "Since it is Mr. He's intention,
Then let’s do it like this!”
After saying that, Ximen Sheng turned around and walked towards the distance.
Seeing Ximen Sheng leaving, Shi Cheng's expression changed, he quickly said goodbye to everyone, and then hurriedly chased after Ximen Sheng.
But except for Shi Cheng, the others had no intention of chasing Ximen Sheng. They could only faintly hear Shi Cheng's anxious persuasion after he chased Ximen Sheng.
"General Ximen... I still believe that there is something fishy about this matter from beginning to end. I'm afraid there is some misunderstanding. You must not..."
After watching Ximen Sheng and Shi Cheng gradually go away, Li Zehe sighed and said: "It is normal for General Ximen to have emotions in his heart, but the top priority right now is to rescue the general and Zhao Gechen with all his strength, rather than deliberately
Take care of General Ximen’s emotions...Shi Qianhu is still young and lacks some overall perspective!"
Xu Jia nodded and said: "You still need more experience... In comparison, Li Qianhu is more concerned about the overall situation."
Gan Cheng also said: "Well, I also think Li Qianhu is more stable."
As the three generals continued to praise, Li Shijie's eyes flashed and he said softly: "Speaking of which, this junior has an important matter in mind. After much thought, I can't make up my mind. I hope to listen to the opinions of the three seniors!
