"General Zhang Shi, you're amazing!"

Wang Ming, who was at the forefront, arrived in a warship. What greeted him was not a fierce battle, but countless white flags raised. When he saw Zhang Shi, who was in the center of the scene, he immediately came over.

"General Zhang Shi is amazing..." Wang Ming had always been very polite to Zhang Shi, and now that he had witnessed Zhang Shi's achievement, he was even more polite: "We all knew that attacking the Yangtze River defense line this time would not be easy."

"But ever since you arrived at the Yangtze River defense line, Zhang, good news has been pouring in, and there's been one happy event after another. Now, you've even devised a plan to lock down the Yangtze River for Zhou Mengyan, so that we can take over the Yangtze River defense line in one fell swoop!"

"They also won over so many surrendered soldiers, minimizing casualties!"

"A tremendous achievement!"

Wang Ming sighed sincerely.

Not only Wang Ming, but Wu Xingzhou also came over: "General Zhang Shi, is this the naval commander Zhou Mengyan? He's even more incompetent than I imagined. He's trembling like a leaf. Yun Jing has made a mistake by appointing someone like this as naval commander!"

Wu Xingzhou arrogantly kicked Zhou Mengyan, not forgetting to flatter Zhang Shi: "General Zhang Shi, you've captured the Grand Admiral of the Navy! This time, your achievement is truly unprecedented!"

"If there are any more good opportunities like this in the future, please continue to support me!"

Zhang Shi nodded, in a good mood, and immediately agreed: "No problem, no problem."

"However, you also made a great contribution to capturing the Yangtze River defense line this time, so there's no need for such flattery!"

Wu Xingzhou chuckled, feeling even more grateful to Zhang Shi. If it weren't for Zhang Shi, he wouldn't have had this opportunity to redeem himself.

Just as he was about to say something more, the soldiers behind him followed.

The situation is under control now. The anticipated fierce battle has not occurred, and the capture of the Yangtze River defense line is a great achievement. The generals couldn't help but cheer for Zhang Shi.

"Hey, to be honest, Old Zhang really did a great job this time, just as well as when he swept through the northern frontier, utterly destroying everything in his path!"

"Absolutely! I told you Old Zhang is a real man, he would never let us down. And look... Old Zhang really did it! He went deep behind enemy lines and completely fooled the enemy commander. How can 'amazing' even begin to describe it?"

"Flanking General, huh? What does 'Flanking General' mean? This is what 'Flanking General' means! You single-handedly turned the enemy upside down, completely wreaking havoc! That's incredibly impressive! This achievement is rightfully yours!"

"I'm impressed, Lao Zhang. From now on, you're the true 'Flanking General' in my eyes!"

……

The words "General Who Flanks Behind the Enemy" were previously a source of unspeakable pain for Zhang Shi. Whenever someone mentioned them, he would feel uneasy. But this time...

Brothers, as you all chatted, Zhang Shi remained calm... not only calm, but also with a touch of pride!

A flanking general?!

Yes, Zhang Shi did flank them!

They bypassed the enemy's main naval camp along the Yangtze River, reaching the enemy's heartland and throwing the camp into disarray, allowing the Duke to easily capture the Yangtze River defense line!

He is the flank general!

He was proud to be the flanking general!

"What a masterful flanking man!"

A voice rang out, and the generals quickly made way. Ren Tianye strode over with a smile on his face, patted Zhang Shi on the shoulder, and emphasized it again!

"What a masterful flanking man!"

"My best flanking general!"

"Zhang Shi, it's you!"

Ren Tianye looked at Zhang Shi's face, which appeared somewhat ferocious due to the scars, and the more he looked, the more he liked him.

He initially valued Zhang Shi the most, believing that he had the potential to become a great general. However, since the attack on Yunjing, Zhang Shi had been unable to adjust his mindset and suffered repeated setbacks.

I have given Zhang Shi a lot of advice for this!

And Zhang Shi finally lived up to his expectations, achieving such a stunning and amazing result!

and……

They managed to turn his dark history into an honor!

The general who flanks from behind!

From now on, who can use those five words to openly or secretly mock Zhang Shi? Zhang Shi is no longer afraid!

"Very well, I knew I hadn't misjudged you!"

Ren Tianye was also very excited. In front of all the generals, he promised, "Zhang Shi, your contribution this time is extremely high. You have also demonstrated the true essence of flanking maneuvers. I must reward you handsomely!"

"Tell me, what do you want?"

"Whatever is promised, will be promised!"

Ren Tianye's promise was quite significant, causing the other generals around him to gasp in surprise. Old Zhang... he's about to rise to the top!

Envy, jealousy, and hatred were all directed at Zhang Shi!

Zhang Shi was also filled with excitement!

The Duke had always treated him very well. Not only did he teach him carefully, but he also gave him his beloved horse, the Jade Lion Zhaoye. Now that he had achieved the merit the Duke had been looking for, and the Duke had made a promise to him in front of so many people, Zhang Shi felt tears welling up in his throat from this favor alone.

However, Zhang Shi did not accept any reward. Instead, he knelt down and said loudly, "Lord Duke, I dare not accept any reward. All the generals have made contributions. I was just lucky."

"This humble general only wishes to ask the Duke for a position, and earnestly hopes that the Duke will grant it."

Ren Tianye smiled.

Zhang Shi's appearance only deepened his affection for him. He personally helped Zhang Shi up and asked, "Tell me, what job do you want?"

Zhang Shi immediately said, "Your Excellency, the naval camp is now in complete disarray, with the vast majority of soldiers surrendering. The remaining troops are no longer a threat. Your Excellency can absolutely sweep everything away like autumn leaves in the wind!"

"This Yangtze River defense line can be considered safely taken."

"but……"

"Besides this Yangtze River defense line, there is another force not far away, an all-female army of 60,000 people organized by Gu Qingyue and others!"

"Those who wreak havoc in the area must be thoroughly cleaned up!"

"Although I have earned some merit in capturing the Yangtze River defense line this time, I wish to go further and take down that all-female army!"

"Therefore..."

"I would like to request that Your Excellency grant me permission to handle the entire female army. I... will certainly defeat the entire female army safely and securely!"

When the Duke mentioned rewarding Zhang Shi earlier, the generals around him were only filled with envy, jealousy, and resentment. After all, Zhang Shi had earned all of this himself, and they couldn't say anything. But now, as soon as Zhang Shi said this, the generals became anxious.

Even Wang Ming was getting anxious.

They all expressed their strong disagreement!

"No, Lao Zhang, how come you're so ambitious? Taking the Yangtze River defense line isn't enough, so what if you hand over the entire female army to the brothers? Aren't you afraid of overextending yourself?"

"That's right, General Zhang Shi. You already have the merit of capturing the Yangtze River defense line. As for the insignificant all-female army, I'll take charge. It will be good to share the burden with you. We're all brothers, no need to thank me!"

"How about I go? I'll capture the entire female army for General Zhang Shi and let him get some rest. He's really exhausted lately; we can't let him keep working so hard. And we can't keep fleecing one sheep at a time, can we? That's not fair!"

"General Zhang Shi definitely needs to rest anyway. In my opinion, I'm perfect for this all-female army. I'm young, strong, and fast; I can take them down in the fastest time!"

……

The scramble was fierce, and even Wang Ming, who was clumsy with words, joined the fray, blushing, saying, "Alright, alright, stop fighting! Taking down this entire female army is something I should do!"

"Everyone knows my track record. To be frank, who else but me could handle something this difficult?"

……

Amid the commotion, Ren Tianye couldn't help but chuckle.

His generals!

They're all incredibly talented!
