Lingnan Province

Jiangbei City

As Lin Hongfei's hometown, Jiangbei City's development has been rapid in the province in the past two years. The original large areas of barren land have now been occupied by factories and residential areas.

In some prosperous areas, there have been a large number of Western-style buildings. Exquisite villas are neatly arranged, coupled with smooth asphalt roads and lush plants on both sides, even no less than the foreign concessions in Hubei Province.

Of course, this area of ​​western buildings is not for ordinary people to live in, but whoever lives here is not a core official in the Lingnan military and political circles.

And in this building area, there is a three-story villa with a single family and a courtyard, which is comparable to a small square in terms of area.

The owner here is naturally Lin Hongfei. When the western villa area was built, the people below built it specially for him.

However, Lin Hongfei seldom comes to live here, and he lives more in that Chinese-style mansion.

And this Chinese-style residence, modeled after the Jinshang Courtyard in Jin Province, is also called the Lin Family Courtyard by people in Jiangbei.

Today, two special guests were welcomed in the Lin family compound.

Ma Yuechuan, Jin Lianshan, Lin Hongfei's best friends when he was in the military academy, both of them were born outside the customs, and now they hold important positions in the military, and they are one of the most trusted officers under Zhang Hanqing's command.

These two people are usually busy with military affairs, so they can spare time to travel all the way to Lin Hongfei's place, of course it's not for some class reunion.

What's more, they don't have female classmates in the military academy, so it's meaningless to have a class reunion.

Lin Hongfei was very happy to see the arrival of the two of them. He is now in a high position, and he can be said to be the leader in Shanling and Shanling.

But the more this happened, the more respectful the people around Lin Hongfei were to him. In the end, it was very difficult for Lin Hongfei to find a friend who could chat with him heartily.

Therefore, when Ma Yuechuan and Jin Lianshan came, Lin Hongfei's chatterbox was opened, and the three of them ate, drank and chatted very happily.

Now that the personal friendship is over, the next step is naturally business.

There is still a clear distinction between public and private among the three brothers!

In fact, Lin Hongfei also roughly guessed that the purpose of Ma Yuechuan and Jin Lianshan coming to Jiangbei City was nothing more than contacting him to fall to Fengjun.

Sure enough, Ma Yuechuan said: "Hongfei, between us brothers, I won't hide it, it doesn't make any sense."

"Let's be honest, the old and young commanders want you to support them secretly."

When Lin Hongfei heard this, he laughed. Instead of answering directly, he changed the subject:

"Why, is the old man still thinking about taking over the Central Plains?"

"Last time in the Zhifeng War, the old man lost a lot of troops. It hasn't been long, and the old man has recovered?"

When Jin Lianshan heard it, he was a little annoyed and said, "Don't mention the Zhifeng war last time, I will get angry when I mention it."

"Old handsome's gang of sworn brothers, every one of them show off their power and show off their teeth and claws on weekdays, wishing for the boss and his second child."

"Usually, we always ridicule those of us who came from military academies as Wu Xiucai who are hard-educated and talk about military affairs on paper. They always talk about how they beat bandits in the mountains."

"Damn, it's all about old sesame seeds and rotten millet, and they are still proud of it!"

Jin Lianshan seemed to be full of anger, cursing and cursing: "But in the end, it was really dragged into the battlefield, and everyone was his mother's coward, let alone attacking, they couldn't even hold a position."

"In the end, it was our group of military school students who followed the young marshal to carry the direct army for several days, which bought them time to retreat outside the pass."

"Otherwise, they would have already entered the concession as apartments!"

Ma Yuechuan also spoke to the side: "You don't know, Hongfei. Since the last Zhifeng war, the old man has not valued his old brothers so much."

"Now the old commander is very supportive of the young commander's work, and he has vigorously promoted many military school students like us and overseas students to serve as mid- and low-level officers."

"I can say responsibly that the current Fengjun is different from the past. Even if it can't be called unique in the world, it is still rare in the country."

"If there is another Zhifeng war, it's really not certain who will win the deer!"

To win someone over, you must first talk about how powerful you are, and second, point out how difficult the person's current situation is.

Only in this way can this person be persuaded.

Seeing Ma Yuechuan finished talking about Fengjun's current situation, Jin Lianshan shifted the topic to Lin Hongfei:

"Hongfei, you and I are brothers. I will say something straight. If you mind, please remind me in time. I will definitely stop talking about it."

Lin Hongfei chuckled: "My brother, if there is anything else you can't say, just tell me, I'll listen to you!"

"it is good!"

Jin Lianshan nodded, and said directly: "Hongfei, among our brothers, you are the most promising. We brothers worked hard, and now you are a colonel."

"But you and Yongquan are both at the rank of general now, on an equal footing with the old man and the others."

"You should know better than us what a direct relationship looks like."

"Old Marshal Cao is a character, and I admire him a lot, but he never regards you as one of his own when he treats you."

"You became a general and patrol envoy, but the problem is, that was after you dealt with the officials sent by Old Marshal Cao to Shaanxi Province, and he couldn't handle you, so he chose to give it to you."

"Otherwise, he will carry the rank of general and the errand of the tour envoy in his arms like an ancestral ingot, and it is impossible to give it to you."

"He doesn't even treat you as his own, so why would you buy him life!"

Lin Hongfei nodded first, agreeing with Jin Lianshan's statement, but he explained: "Lianshan, I am not in the Zhili because of Cao Zhongsan, but because of Marshal Wu."

"Yushuai has been kind to me, and besides, Yushuai and I are still relatives. You want me to deviate from my direct lineage. To be honest, it is very difficult for me to do so."

Ma Yuechuan chuckled: "Okay, the relationship between Yushuai and Cao Laoshuai is about to fall apart. I can't guarantee that you have not left the direct line in the future. Yushuai turned against Cao Zhongsan first!"

Lin Hongfei waved his hand and said, "I don't care if Yushuai is against you."

"In short, as long as Yushuai is still there, it is impossible for me to deviate from my direct lineage."

"When I jumped from the Anhui branch to the Zhi branch, some people already called me an unfaithful and unrighteous person."

"If I jump from the direct line to the Feng line again, then I won't be Lu Bu anymore."

"The hats of these three surnamed house slaves are probably going to be firmly on top of my head, and I can't even take them off!"
