Chapter 469: Win people's hearts

Views:

Xiyun Xingguang was writing documents in the study.

Dong Guixue hesitated to speak by his side.

"Do you want to ask why you didn't get rid of Yunying?"

"It's not difficult to kill Yunying, there's no need to leave this trouble."

"Getting rid of Yunying is not the goal. The top priority is to completely incorporate the expeditionary legion, so it is enough to let him spit out his position, otherwise killing a legion leader for no reason is always a disgraceful thing. It aroused the resentment of Beichentian's old department."

"Yunying was not born as a regular soldier at all, and the generals of the expeditionary army refused to accept him." Dong Guixue put forward his own opinion, "Maybe, they also hope that Yunying will die soon."

"The generals of the expeditionary army are mostly Beichen's direct descendants. They are all fierce and fierce, and they don't recognize people, so there will inevitably be friction. Yunying took over the expeditionary army when he was in danger. During the short confrontation, he defended properly, broke through the encirclement skillfully, and counterattacked strangely. They have shown military talent at a young age, they already have mid-level general talents, and they are also Bei Chentian's disciples, so they will still choose to stand for Yunying when encountering critical moments."

Dong Guixue noticed.

When Master Xingguang talked about Yunying, he didn't show any murderous intent.

As for this reason, it sounds reasonable at first glance, because the expeditionary army is considered to be the most powerful existence among the several large legions in the God's Domain. To hold the expeditionary army in your hands, first of all, you can't offend these eccentric generals.

But a cloud eagle can restrain the star beam

This kind of thing is obviously impossible!

Master Xingguang must have a hundred ways to make Yunying disappear from this world, but there are ways to make people speechless and unable to lure him. If he didn't even have this trick to buy people's hearts and check and balance, it would be impossible for him to be in power in Sky Cloud City for so many years.

Master Starlight did not take any action against Yunying for the time being.

His reason is only one.

He didn't want to kill Yunying yet.

What kind of use value does Yunying have? Was he also a chess piece that had been buried long ago in the Starlight Chess Game? At this moment, a guard walked in at the door and said, "Report to the city lord, the general Shanhaifeng you summoned has arrived."

"Please come in."

Shan Haifeng was brought in.

This fat man looks trembling and nervous. Xiyun Xingguang is not an ordinary person now. He is not only the city lord of Tianyun City, but also the commander-in-chief of the entire army of Tianyun City. Almost all the real power is in his hands. Nothing is a word to him now. Words can't do it.

Although the high priest Tian Yunming has a very high status in Tianyun City.

Starlight City Master slowly put down the book: "Your name is Shanhaifeng, right?"

"It's a humble job, it's a humble job!" Shan Haifeng hurriedly knelt down on one knee and saluted, "The humble job pays homage to the city lord and commander-in-chief."

"No need to be too polite." Starlight City Master sat back on his seat again: "Actually, I have been observing you for a while, and you are a truly outstanding soldier, better than Beichenhai and Zhanchen, only from the perspective of this profession In other words, Bei Chentian may not be able to do better than you."

The fat man suddenly showed a frightened expression: "The low position is just good luck, and the promotion has been relatively fast in the past few years. With the weak power of the low position, it is at the bottom even among ordinary generals. I dare not compete with Bei Chenhai and Zhan Chen. Marshal character ratio."

"Don't belittle yourself. A person can't be judged only by his ability, but also by his potential and position." Starlight City Master's attitude is very friendly, calm and indifferent, like a spring breeze, more like an ordinary person who has no pretensions Mr. Teacher: "The era of Beichentian has passed, and now the situation is beginning to change, so the way of employing people should also change."

Shan Haifeng was a little dazed.

He didn't understand what Xiyun Xingguang was talking about.

"Bei Chentian's promotion of generals pays too much attention to personal bravery, but he ignores that the most important thing for a general is wisdom and strategy. Because the enemies humans have encountered for thousands of years are all inferior to us, and they only need enough morale and courage to crush them all, so Only then will it lead to the great defeat of Jiaozhuo Mountain and the personal tragedy of General Beichen, proud soldiers must be defeated, and the courage of ordinary people is not enough to be advocated. We can't let this kind of thing happen again, we should fundamentally change the army."

When Master Starlight said this, he paused and looked at Shanhaifeng.

"It's not enough for a general to know how to defeat the enemy, but he also needs to know how to cherish every one of his soldiers. Winning or losing a war is not so important. Only when you laugh at the end can you laugh the best. Victory is a real marshal. To be proficient in fighting in battle formations, you must cultivate a keen sense of smell, there are many invisible battlefields outside of the battlefield, and these are the keys to truly determining the outcome."

Shan Haifeng was silent for a moment.

"The generals of the older generation in Tianyun City are useless. Since the position of commander-in-chief is temporarily in my hands, I am going to support the new generation of generals." Master Xingguang handed over the written document to Shan Haifeng, "I will appoint Dong Guixue as the commander of the expeditionary army. Your mission is to coordinate Dongguixue to control the expeditionary army. Are you willing to accept this task?"

Shan Haifeng's breathing became a little short.

He felt it, he felt it.

This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. The city lord loves him so much. As long as he can help Dong Guixue secure the position of army commander, he can really soar into the sky and be reused by the Xiyun family. This is a good thing that many people dream of.

But.

It seems wrong to do so.

Shan Haifeng is able to have what he is today, all thanks to Yunying's support, Xiyun's family has a gap with Yunying, making such a choice for a better future, will he be able to face Yunying well in the future

"Young man, I hope you can seize the opportunity." Xiyun Xingguang said: "I can make a promise here, as long as I successfully assist Dong Guixue to secure the position of commander of the expeditionary army, I will promote you to be the deputy commander of the expeditionary army. You can rebuild your own corps within a few days, let the Zhanlong Corps become the vanguard of the Expeditionary Corps, and in the future, you can even build an independent army from the Expeditionary Army. I can personally teach you military strategy and strategy, and I believe that the future belongs to you.”

Shan Haifeng gritted his teeth and thought carefully for a few minutes.

He nodded and said, "Humble job is willing to serve the city lord!"

Xiyun Xingguang was not surprised at all, he believed that the fat man in front of him was a smart person: "You will feel lucky for your decision today, because you choose a real way, and your life will be different from now on."

Shan Haifeng felt a sense of collapse.

He knew that from today onwards, he belonged to the Xiyun family.

The appointment document for Tianyun City Lord and Commander-in-Chief of the whole region was issued soon.

Dong Guixue, the deputy head of the Glorious Legion, was promoted to be the head and commander-in-chief of the expeditionary army. Yunying, the acting commander-in-chief of the expeditionary army, was still dismissed because he needed to be investigated by the temple, so the appointment would take effect.

Xiyun Starlight drew out 500 demon hunters to strengthen the expeditionary army, so that the expeditionary army, which originally lacked demon hunters, suddenly had a large number of fighting demon hunter resources, and one-third of these demon hunters were incorporated into the Dragon Corps. It is managed by the little-known teenager Shan Haifeng.

This series of measures caught people off guard.

Dong Guixue's resume is the most shining among the younger generation. He is a disciple of the city lord. He has worked steadily from the grassroots level. He has served as the general of the demon hunter for many years, and was promoted to the deputy head of the Glorious Legion. Now he has been promoted to the head of the army again. As the youngest commander in Sky Cloud City, even if someone wanted to object, it would be difficult to find a reason to object.

Dong Guixue not only has a strong background, but also has a sufficiently qualified resume, as well as quite outstanding talent, and his personal strength is also impeccable. After all, he is the one who single-handedly killed the Chilong, even among the strong men of the older generation. There are not many people who can defeat him.

Xiyun Xingguang's promotion of Shanhaifeng made people feel a little puzzled. How could a young general without outstanding military exploits, birth, and strength get so many resources? The Zhanlong Corps, which originally only had three or two hundred people left, is now quite likely to become the first Corps of the Expeditionary Army. Can the other generals swallow this breath

Starlight holding Shanhaifeng will undoubtedly attract and crowd out. This is a way to divert conflicts, and everyone will reduce their resistance to Dongguixue and devote more energy to Shanhaifeng.

As for whether Shan Haifeng can secure this position

This was Starlight's test for him.

This little trouble can't be solved.

This person is also useless.

Xiyun Xingguang stayed alone in the study room, closed his eyes slightly, and was in a state of contemplation. In the Tianyun God Realm, he had no resistance anymore. What he had to do had just begun.

"High Priest! Why are you still hesitating?" Yinyue finished the story of the expeditionary army with the white-haired and kind old man in front of her: "The actual controller of the Wilderness Alliance is Xiyun Xingguang, and Bei Chentian was also designed by Xingguang. Ambushes, the Sacred Palace knows this and stands by, Xiyun Xingguang will be even more confident."

The high priest Tian Yunming has a detached position in Tianyun City.

Xingguang always showed humility and respect in front of him.

This is because the high priest is considered to be the only one who can get in touch with Shenshan. In other words, the high priest can communicate with the gods. There is only this leader of faith.

This is also the reason why Yinyue defected to the temple.

"This matter is not so easy." Tian Yun discovered that something was wrong with Xingguang many years ago, but Tian Yunming didn't have the actual strength despite his aloof status. The only thing he could use was a group of paladins and a group of priests. We can't openly shame Xingguang, we can only investigate secretly, but Xingguang has never been leaky in his work, and he can hardly find any clues.

Yinyue said directly: "It's better to report directly to Shenshan to summon the gods!"

"The gods don't intervene in the game of fighting for power in God's Domain, let alone we have no evidence to prove all this. Xingguang has been cautious in doing things for many years, and what he has shown is a perfect city master and a devout believer. God will not easily send such a person Erase."

Silvermoon was very confused.

God can't even control a prisoner freely? What kind of god is this!

"However, for someone as intelligent as he is, it is impossible to catch him. Therefore, if you want to deal with Xingguang, you must proceed step by step, and you must not act too hastily."

Yinyue frowned: "Will Yunying be in danger?"

"You can rest assured about this. If there are really plans against you in the Starlight Project, it is impossible for the few of you to come back alive. Although I don't know why, Starlight has no killing intent for the time being. You just need to wait and see what happens. , I put Bei Chenxi and Yunying under house arrest in the temple, because there is no safer place in Tianyun City than the temple."
