Yi Zhengjin took a deep breath, looked at Chen Yong in shock, and said in disbelief,
"You...you used to pretend?"
“…” Shen Yong pursed his lips and nodded, “That’s right.”
Everyone thinks so, so just assume he was just pretending.
The corners of Yi Zhengjin's mouth twitched twice. "How come I can't feel any internal energy from you?"
Shen Yong smiled and said, "This is a unique technique taught by my master. Most people can't discover it."
Looking at Yi Zhengjin's stunned expression, Shen Yong sighed.
"Okay, I'll tell you about this later."
"I have something more important to tell you now."
Yi Zhengjin looked at Chen Yong in surprise, and couldn't help but look him up and down.
The Shen family is really good at hiding things.
I guess the Shen family was preparing for this day when they gave birth to so many sons in a row.
He deliberately let Shen Yong pretend to be a playboy in the capital so as to deceive Emperor Tianwu.
"What's the important thing?"
Yi Zhengjin looked at Shen Yong curiously and couldn't help asking,
"You killed Fan Jinchang. How are you going to support those soldiers you took in?"
It takes a thousand days to train an army and only a moment to use it, but that thousand days is not that easy to train.
Food and fodder are indispensable. Now is a year of famine, and the most lacking thing is food and fodder.
"You'll know all this later."
Chen Yong pulled Yi Zhengjin's arm, leaned over and whispered,
"My soldiers have been stationed in Menglan City. Menglan City is now mine."
Yi Zhengjin suddenly stared at Chen Yong with wide eyes, his mind in a mess.
"How many more soldiers?"
He had countless questions in his mind.
I didn't know where to start for a moment, so I just opened my mouth and asked this question.
How long has the imperial envoy been in Qianhuang City?
How could Chen Yong reach Menglan City so quickly?
And he also killed Fan Jinchang, what a guy.
By this calculation, there are almost no generals in the capital who can go to war.
Either they were killed by Emperor Tianwu himself or by Chen Yong, so how could there be anyone left?
Shen Yong said, “About 400,000.”
Menglan City is still recruiting soldiers, and the total number is definitely more than 400,000.
However, it is estimated that only 400,000 people can go to the battle.
Villagers like those in Waibo Village who have difficulty walking cannot go to war even if they sign up for the army.
“Four...four hundred thousand troops!!?” Yi Zhengjin looked at Chen Yong in shock, his eyes almost popping out.
"The defenders of the capital city don't even have 400,000 soldiers, and you actually have 400,000 soldiers?"
"How do you support so many soldiers?"
Yi Zhengjin was really curious.
He thought Shen Yong only had tens of thousands of soldiers from Fan Jinchang, but he didn't expect...
"It's a long story." Chen Yong looked at Yi Zhengjin speechlessly.
Why are you always keeping an eye on how he raises his troops?
"I have something more important to tell you now, and I need Brother Yi's cooperation."
Yi Zhengjin looked at Chen Yong steadily, thought for a moment, and said seriously,
"Tell me about it."
He could probably guess what Shen Yong wanted him to do.
He didn't know how many cards the Shen family still had.
However, he knew that if 400,000 troops rushed towards the capital, the capital would be unable to resist.
The speed is too fast.
Who could have thought that Chen Yong would reach the capital so quickly? Emperor Tianwu had no time to mobilize troops and could only passively take the beating.
Before, maybe Fan Jinchang could lead the troops to fight, but now...
There are quite a few old generals in the capital, but those old generals are so old that it is really difficult for them to go into battle and kill the enemy.
Shen Yong stared at Yi Zhengjin.
"I need you in the capital..."
Shen Yong leaned close to Yi Zhengjin's ear and told him his plan in detail.
The more Yi Zhengjin listened, the paler his face became.
He somewhat regretted why he had to listen to Shen Yong say this.
Now that he had heard the news, he absolutely could not refuse.
Shen Yong will not let him go.
But if he formed an alliance with Chen Yong, he would have to risk the extermination of his entire clan.
The pressure was too great, he was a little...
"Brother Yi~" Shen Yong smiled and put his hand on Yi Zhengjin's shoulder.
"The lives of the soldiers in the capital depend on whether you want to spare them."
Of course, even if Yi Zhengjin didn't help him with these things, it would not affect his actions.
However, more people will die in the capital by then.
He did this just to kill fewer people so that the capital would not be left in ruins after he took it.
The number of deaths in the capital varies, depending on what Yi Zhengjin does.
Yi Zhengjin's shoulders sank, he pursed his lips, raised his eyelids and looked at Shen Yong.
At this moment, he felt that Chen Yong in front of him was so unfamiliar.
Their eyes met in the air, and Yi Zhengjin's heart skipped a beat.
".....good."
He knew that Shen Yong did this to give the soldiers in the capital some chance to survive.
He didn't know why Shen Yong was so confident.
Having a large number of soldiers does not make people so confident.
After all, the city gate towers in the capital are extremely high, making them easy to defend but difficult to attack.
Moreover, the weapons in the capital are sophisticated and cannot be compared with the weapons in the hands of ordinary soldiers.
Given the character of Emperor Tianwu, the soldiers he asked Fan Jinchang to lead must have been of poor ability.
Emperor Tianwu will definitely keep the powerful capital army in the capital.
He felt that Shen Yong must have other cards up his sleeve, which was why he was so confident.
Chen Yong smiled and patted Yi Zhengjin's arm gently.
"I just know that Brother Yi won't let me down."
