Lin Xing said that he found the evil spirit after suppressing it. Because the evil spirit lacked the ability to take care of himself and had lost all his relatives, he took the evil spirit with him to take care of him.

Zhao Yuan only thought that the puppet girl was a newly recruited maid. Although she was extremely beautiful, she was not the main reason why he found Lin Xing this time.

"Lin Xing, now that a great war is imminent, you and I have both earned our military merits with our swords and spears, so we should support each other in the future..."

From what Zhao Yuan said, it seemed like he was trying to win over Lin Xing.

When he arrived at the hall of the Marshal's Mansion, Lin Xing found that Marshal Zhang, Zhu Fen, Song Yi and many other officers had already arrived.

At this moment, Marshal Zhang was arranging his troops on a map of Dongya Prefecture.

After seeing Lin Xing coming, Marshal Zhang laughed and said, "Lin Xing, you came back just in time. I thought it would take you four or five days to go to Wangjia Town. I didn't expect you to come back so soon."

Marshal Zhang tilted his head and looked at him, with a hint of impatience in his eyes: "What? Are you going to disobey my orders?"

Marshal Zhang said, "You made a lot, didn't you? I heard that you also labeled several wealthy families as followers of a cult, seized their land and property deeds, and sold their wives, daughters, and servants. You really have a way of making money."

Marshal Zhang said calmly: "So didn't I ask you to assist Lin Xing and help him command?"

…

There is also Lin Xing leading another group, assisted by Zhu Fen as his adjutant.

Marshal Zhang glanced at the two of them and said, "You two, listen to me carefully."

Being swept by that gaze like a knife blade, Zhu Fen shrank his neck and said he didn't dare.

"If you drink their blood, you are drinking my blood."

Now that the war is imminent, he has no time to think about these things.

When he saw Lin Xing staying, Marshal Zhang thought that the other party had something important to do, but he found out that Lin Xing was actually trying to persuade him not to burn people to death again, and also asked him to rectify military discipline and strengthen public security management... Looking at the other party's honest and serious look, Marshal Zhang kept scratching his head and just felt it was troublesome.

"I'll give you one day to pay off all the overdue military pay before the army sets out."

After that, only Zhu Fen and the Marshal were left in the hall.

Marshal Zhang frowned and looked at him, his cold eyes like a knife cutting through.

With the murderous intent coming over him, Zhu Fen fell to his knees in fear: "Sister, brother-in-law, I didn't do it."

"But it seems that the danger of evil spirits is ultimately no match for human nature."

Hearing her brother's cry, Zhu smiled and said, "You know what kind of person Tiande is. He never mistreats his own people. Just do a good job for him this time, and I will help you beg him afterwards."

"Tell me, what is that ghost all about?"

Not long after, in a courtyard of the Marshal's Mansion.

But the other party was his general after all, and he didn't want to argue with him at this critical moment. He just agreed to a few words and let Lin Xing leave.

Sitting in front of Zhu Fen was a middle-aged woman with a graceful figure and a round face. She was Marshal Zhang’s wife, Zhu.

"Sister! Why do we always have to beg him?" Zhu Fen said indignantly, "Zhang Tiande is a peasant for three generations. If our Zhu family hadn't sold everything we had to buy him guns and recruit people, and donated an official position to him, would he be where he is today?"

Marshal Zhang looked at the contents of the letter without any change in expression. He put the letter down after a moment and continued to explain the battle situation as if nothing had happened.

Marshal Zhang looked at him calmly and said, "You don't need to explain. Why should you explain? It's just to make some money. We are all brothers. No matter how much money you make, I can turn a blind eye."

Among them, Marshal Zhang personally commanded one group, while Zhao Yuan and Song Yi each led another group.

Zhu Fen's body trembled, and he swallowed his saliva and said, "Marshal, I have spoiled those bastards under my command. They are all unruly and unruly. I am afraid that they will be difficult to command under Brother Lin's command."

Marshal Zhang shouted coldly: "I, Zhang Tiande, do not have a background of a wealthy and prestigious family, nor do I have a first-class master from the nine major sects. What can I rely on?"

According to Marshal Zhang's plan, the troops will be divided into four groups, each of which will sweep away several evil forces in Dongya Prefecture, and finally meet in Shanghe County.

Zhao Yuan at the side snorted and said, "Those scholars in the provincial administrative office don't know how to fight at all. They just know how to urge others to do things. If you listen to them, you'll be finished..."

Zhu Fen whispered, "That's right, brother-in-law. I'm just afraid that Lin Xing is too young, lacks experience, and has an ambiguous relationship with that evil witch. If he gets soft-hearted on the battlefield, it will ruin your plans..."

An aura like a mountain of corpses and a sea of ​​blood surged out of Marshal Zhang's body, like a knife placed on Zhu Fen's neck, preventing him from saying anything next.

The meeting was over in a blink of an eye, and after everyone understood their respective tasks, they dispersed.

"As a result, he has married eight concubines in the past few years, and now he wants to strip me of my military power. How can he be so ruthless..."

Zhu Fen blushed, pointed at himself angrily, then pointed at Lin Xing: "I assist him?"

A hint of curiosity flashed in Lin Xing's eyes, and he whispered to Zhao Yuan beside him: "This Dongjiang Provincial Administrative Office..."

When he was halfway through his speech, a personal guard suddenly came trotting in.

Hearing this assignment, Zhu Fen exclaimed in surprise: "Brother-in-law!"

He glanced at the places where everyone was standing or sitting, and told the servant beside him, "Wipe them all clean."

Zhu Fen just smiled, but when he heard Marshal Zhang's next words, he felt as if a cold wind had blown through him, and cold sweat broke out on his back.

Watching Lin Xing's departing figure, Marshal Zhang rubbed his brows and said, "This kid is good in every way, but he is too young and a bit soft-hearted. How can we convince these stubborn people in Dongya Prefecture if we don't use thundering measures?"

He pointed outside the hall in the direction of the military camp and shouted, "Over the years, I have relied on the loyalty of my brothers, the dedication of my soldiers, and the territory they have conquered with me, inch by inch."

Then he said: "Now that the evil has been suppressed, you will join us in sweeping out the evil cult."

Without giving the other party a chance to continue, Marshal Zhang said coldly: "You did a really good job suppressing the rioters this time."

Zhu Fen knelt on the ground and cried to a woman, "Sister, how old am I? How many years have I fought with Zhang Tiande? Now he wants me to assist that brat Lin Xing? He is clearly planning to strip me of my military power!"

After Zhu Fen left, Marshal Zhang's cheeks flushed, as if his internal injuries were affected again, but he quickly suppressed it.

But Lin Xing took the initiative to stay.

Next, Marshal Zhang focused on the arrangements for each route.

Listening to Lin Xing's story, some people at the scene were surprised, some were thoughtful, and some did not take it seriously.

After hearing these words, the scene suddenly became quiet, and everyone watched Marshal Zhang take the letter quietly.

"Marshal, this is a letter from the Dongjiang Provincial Administrative Office."

Zhu Fen quickly explained: "Brother-in-law, listen to me..."

Finally, Marshal Zhang sighed, "I originally thought that the evil spirits were just rumors in the countryside and not worth believing. I never thought that they really existed in this world."

Lin Xing said: "It was the Zhou family's teacher who secretly worshipped the evil land and cultivated evil spirits..."

As Zhu listened to what her brother said, her expression seemed to gradually become uglier.

Looking at her brother whom she had loved since childhood, Zhu scolded him, "Don't always speak ill of your brother-in-law in front of me. Your brother-in-law has told me all those things about you. You know what he hates the most, why do you still do this?"

"You have to work hard this time and try to make achievements, then I can speak for you."

After being scolded, Zhu Fen left the courtyard angrily, with a hint of strong unwillingness in his eyes.
