"Wh-what?"

Upon hearing this, the lady felt as if a thunderbolt had struck her head, and her body swayed involuntarily.

"Zhou Mengyan, what did you say?"

"Zhang Shih is coming to serve us?"

"Want to serve you?"

Before Zhou Mengyan could speak, Ruan Fei eagerly chimed in, "Yes, Zhang Shi wants to join us. I racked my brains and went to great lengths to finally win General Zhang Shi over."

"Madam, as I said, although I don't know much about military affairs, I can still get things done."

With her head held high, Ruan Fei felt a sense of superiority, which made her feel incredibly comfortable.

After all, this was the first time she had truly and completely suppressed the lady.

Zhou Mengyan, who was standing nearby, then chimed in, "Madam, all of this is truly thanks to Xiao Fei."

"Therefore, a soldier should be viewed with new respect after three days."

"Madam, you can't look at Xiaofei with the same old eyes anymore. Xiaofei has grown to a point that even I find terrifying!"

The two men sang in unison, and the lady laughed.

He laughed mockingly.

"Zhou Mengyan, Ruan Fei's brain has always been full of shit. Has your brain gotten full of shit too? Zhang Shilai is going to defect? ​​Use your ass to think about it, is there even the slightest possibility of that?"

The lady was furious at his lack of self-respect: "Who is Zhang Shinan?"

"A general under Ren Tianye!"

"From a guerrilla general, favored by Ren Tianye, to now a general sweeping across the northern frontier, wiping out the enemy's entire territory, his fame is recorded in history. With such immense favor, would Zhang Shi really surrender?"

"And you were persuaded to surrender by that bitch Ruan Fei?"

"You think there's even the slightest possibility?!"

This was actually Zhou Mengyan's previous thought, but after learning about Zhang Shi's experience, his judgment on Zhang Shi's surrender changed.

It would be strange if someone who's in such a miserable state didn't surrender!

Furthermore, those who have achieved great merit and overshadowed their superiors have never had a good ending. Zhang Shi's experience, combined with his conjecture, not only made his case sound but also gave him great certainty.

Besides... even if Zhang Shi came, no matter how courteous he was, he would still be on guard. It would be a great pity to miss out on such a great general.

Zhou Mengyan had already made a thorough plan in his mind. When he saw that his wife had arrived, he originally wanted to have a good talk and discuss the matter at hand. However, his wife's angry roar, which directly called him a good-for-nothing, hit the sore spot where he had been suppressed by his wife for a long time.

Immediately, he said coldly, "Madam!"

"Watch your mouth!"

"Now, I am the commander-in-chief of an army, commanding the entire Yangtze River defense line. You are merely a military staff officer. Who gave you the audacity to be so insolent in front of me?"

Halfway through his sentence, Zhou Mengyan realized his tone had been too sharp, so he softened it and added, "Besides, you don't even know what's going on, so how dare you spout nonsense?"

However, Zhou Mengyan's softened tone still carried a hint of harshness, causing the lady's temper to flare up instantly.

"Zhou Mengyan, you've really grown wings now!"

"Have you forgotten how you climbed all the way up? Back then, you were competing with Zhou Buzhang for promotions. If it weren't for my family's help, would you be where you are today?"

"Leaving aside the past, even right now, aren't you the one calling the shots in this military camp!"

After a pause, the lady said in an extremely serious and cold tone, "I'm telling you this now: as long as I'm here, you can forget about letting Zhang Shishun defect smoothly!"

"I will not allow you to risk the lives of all the soldiers on the Yangtze River defense line to do something so mindless!"

After the lady finished speaking, she turned and left.

It's obvious they're going to make arrangements.

The silhouette he left behind caught Zhou Mengyan's eye, making his eyes almost spit fire, and his fists clenched so tightly they cracked.

He is the true commander-in-chief!

But because he had some influence back then, there are still many people in the military who are loyal to his wife, and everything he does is now being hindered at every turn!

He's the Grand Admiral of the Navy!

How can I feel so frustrated?

I've been feeling really frustrated ever since!

"Brother Meng Yan..."

Ruan Fei was well aware of the conflict between the two, and gently advised, "Madam is too unreasonable. She so casually contradicts your opinion and even insults you. It's too much."

"I feel so sorry for you, and I think it's such a waste of your time!"

"Fortunately, General Zhang Shi is coming soon. Once he arrives, Brother Meng Yan, you will be able to free up your hands to deal with Madam's affairs."

The lady's words were like thorns to Zhou Mengyan's side, while Ruan Fei's words were the opposite, touching Zhou Mengyan's heart and warming him. He then hugged Ruan Fei back.

This time, embracing Ruan Fei had a sense of righteousness and a grand declaration of war.

A hint of determination and ruthlessness shone in his eyes!

"This camp is under my control!"

"Xiao Fei, get someone to make the arrangements now. General Zhang Shi is coming in person; I will greet him with the grandest ceremony!"

"he……"

"They will be my, Zhou Mengyan's, strongest ally!"

Ruan Fei exclaimed happily, "Brother Meng Yan, I knew it! You have the best eye for talent!"
