"Daojiu, Zhang Bao compromised! Then, using Wu Ba as a breakthrough point, we can gain great benefits!" Xi Zhicai, who was next to Lin Mu, showed a look of certainty after hearing Zhang Bao's roar.
Thousands of Taiping soldiers, even if they were wiped out, they would not be able to harm the Taiping Road. And it seems that the five Daqu commanders cannot be won in a short time. A truce is the best option!
"Zhicai knows things like a god!" Lin Mu said. Xi Zhicai had already mentioned Zhang Bao's reaction earlier.
Cui Wu, Huang Xu and others next to him also looked at Xi Zhicai with fiery eyes.
Is this the super strategist who strategizes and wins thousands of miles away? ! Sure enough!
Then, Lin Mu stepped off the boulder and ran to the front, asking Yu Jin and others to start a truce!
At the same time, Lin Mu was ready to have a good chat with Zhang Bao!
…
"The most important thing about Wu Ba is that he is the [First General of Faqiu]! There may be a special camp building on Taiping Road to cultivate gold captains, so this title may bring huge benefits to the camp!" Xi Zhicai He said with certainty.
"Zhicai sees things much more clearly than we do. We have captured Wu Ba for so long, but we didn't even know Wu Ba was so important!" Feng Zhong, who was still standing on the boulder, looked at Xi Zhicai and said with relief.
It’s really much easier with a counselor here!
"Fengjin is so complimentary. The attributes of [Faqiu No. 1 General] do not indicate that it has a bonus effect on territory buildings. It is understandable that everyone does not know about it. But now Dianwei is here to steal him. He must be very important." , everyone will know after a little analysis of Wu Ba's information that only the strange title like pioneer is problematic." Xi Zhicai smiled slightly and said modestly.
"Zhang Bao will definitely make a series of plans around Wu Ba, so it's easy to guess his next performance."
"However, looking at Zhang Bao's expression, there may be other situations happening." Xi Zhicai actually understood Zhang Bao's every move.
"Chu Shi and I originally set up a murderous plot on the Black Dry Mountain, preparing to wipe out a wave of them. But just now I felt a strange power of calculation, which should be the enemy. In this way, Zhang Bao may not enter the Black Dry Mountain! " Xi Zhicai said.
"Not entering the Black Dry Mountain? Then they gave up the tomb?"
"Very possible!" Xi Zhicai nodded.
"It's quite grand to just abandon the tomb palace!" Feng Zhong said.
"I heard that Zhang Jue is good at Taoism, and Taoism also includes divination. Will he figure out you, Fengxiao, and others?" Feng Zhong said. Guo Jia and Xi Zhicai are two super trump cards in the Dahuang territory.
"Definitely not!" Xi Zhicai said very confidently.
"Yes!" Since everything has been planned by Xi Zhicai, there is no need to worry.
"Zhicai, what do you think of Taiping Road and the Great Wilderness Territory?" Feng Zhong thought for a while and asked again. In fact, Feng Zhong also asked this question in private after Guo Jia entered the Great Wilderness territory.
Feng Zhong, like Lin Mu, attached great importance to Xi Zhicai, so he asked about the same topic that he had mentioned in private greetings with Guo Fengxiao earlier.
Xi Zhicai didn't answer right away. He rubbed his chin for a while, pondered for a while and then said quietly:
"There are many differences between the Great Wilderness Territory and Taiping Road."
"First of all, the power base is different. Daojiu's Great Wilderness Territory is still very weak at present. It cannot have a large-scale conflict with Taiping Dao. This is detrimental to the development of the territory. Therefore, the degree of hostility to it must be controlled!"
"Since we are already enemies with Taiping Dao, we must show an image of being invincible and make Taiping Dao think that we are an enemy force with average background and not a very difficult opponent! In this way, Taiping Dao will not We will use all our strength to target the Great Wilderness Territory.”
"This enemy has been dealt with. Five thousand 'super elites', six generals, and one divine general! This is what the enemy thinks is all our strength and heritage. When Dianwei returns, he may take Fengjin Report the erratic situation, that way, the effect will be better! Ordinary soldiers, Taipingdao will not be afraid, their background in this aspect is deeper than Longting. What they are afraid of is the peak power, and this time we're all out 'The peak appearance will definitely let Taiping Dao have a detailed understanding! In this way, they, who are preparing for the great cause, will not carry out a devastating blow to the Great Wilderness Territory!" Xi Zhicai said.
"Secondly, the strategic goals of the two are different..." After a slight pause, Xi Zhicai added: "The strategic goal of the Great Wilderness Territory is to develop slowly. Only when the Dragon Lord is exhausted and chaos breaks out will he show his sharpness. And Taiping Dao, his strategic goal is too big and arrogant, he actually wants to break through the cage and conquer the world before the strength of the Han Dynasty is exhausted!"
"Taiping Dao, I have been paying attention to it for a long time. Although it seems to have the power to sweep the world, it is only among the ordinary classes. These ordinary classes have a very weak impact on Longting. If it had not obtained the divine order, The chance of success is basically 10%, or even lower! The water in Dahan Longting is very deep!"
"Furthermore, the directions of talents are different. Forces with Taoism as the core will not be favored by high-level talents in China! Many hidden talents avoid them. Even if they activate the dragon vein, there will be no Too much development. Because its main body is still Taiping Road, which is essentially different from the Great Wilderness Territory!"
"To put it simply, the Great Wilderness Territory is more attractive to high-level talents than Taiping Road, but less attractive to ordinary people."
"This is the inherent disadvantage of Taiping Road and the inherent advantage of the Great Wilderness Territory!"
"Taiping Dao can accumulate such foundation because of the inherent disadvantage of Taoism. It is very attractive to ordinary people and can quickly accumulate basic strength. But having basic strength is not enough. Peak power is the decisive factor. Therefore, Taiping Dao's Destiny has been doomed to failure from the beginning!" Xi Zhicai said in a serious voice.
"Although the development of the Great Wilderness Territory is slow, its momentum will slowly accumulate. When the momentum is strong, there will be no chance of competing for the world!"
"The potential of the Great Wilderness Territory is greater than the potential of Taiping Road!"
Xi Zhicai kept communicating with Feng Zhong.
…
While Xi Zhicai was communicating with Feng Zhong, a lot of things happened on Lin Mu's side.
As the giants from both sides decided to call a truce, the black and yellow waves began to slowly separate.
However, the two sides with the same 5,000 soldiers had completely different results after World War I.
Lin Mu had five thousand soldiers, but not many elites died in battle. The bodies of the fallen soldiers were quickly collected by Pao Ze and returned to their own camp in an orderly manner.
The number of Taipingdao soldiers who fell on the opposite side was obviously much larger, and the corpses lying on the ground were a bright yellow.
The panicked Taipingdao soldiers didn't even clean up the corpses and ran back to the formation organized by Zhang Bao.
Lin Mu led six tiger generals to confront Zhang Bao and the others.
"Lin Mu, why did you raid our Holy Cult soldiers? Why did you ruthlessly kill our leader?" Zhang Bao shouted loudly.
Facing Zhang Bao's scolding, Lin Mu was not angry at all and said calmly: "Oh, this! I thought they were bandits from the Yuju Mountains who wanted to attack our camp, so I hurriedly dealt with them!"
"However, I didn't expect that those courageous bandits turned out to be everyone from Taiping Dao! Haha... I'm so offended! Please forgive me." Lin Mu said sarcastically with an indifferent expression.
"You..." Zhang Baohu was stunned when he heard that Lin Mu and the others described them as courageless gangsters. He wanted to refute, but he had no reason to refute.
How to say that they are not courageous bandits? Or are they not here for a sneak attack? No matter which one, it would be a loss of face.
Lin Mu looked indifferent, which made Zhang Bao's anger rise, as if the Taiping Road soldiers who fell in a pool of blood were like grass.
"I don't know what to call this wise, mighty and radiant general?" Lin Mu said with a teasing look on his face.
Zhang Bao could hear Lin Mu's sarcasm, and his face became angry and shouted: "Listen up, I am the Taiping Holy Sect's [divine envoy] Zhang Bao!"
Zhang Bao always calls Taiping Tao the holy religion.
"Oh, it turns out to be Commander Zhang!" Lin Mu said with an exaggerated look as if he had heard some earth-shattering information.
However, this look in Zhang Bao's eyes was even more sarcastic.
"Too arrogant, you..." Zhang Bao became even more angry.
This guy who came from a remote place and was as humble as a farmer and businessman in the countryside dared to ridicule the divine envoy of the Holy Religion! It's so arrogant!
"General!" Guo Tu called softly at this time and pulled Zhang Bao's armor.
Guo Tuke knew Zhang Bao's character very well. He was an irritable person.
At this time, the enemy could not be allowed to contain Zhang Bao's emotions. This would be very detrimental to the subsequent plan, so Guo Tu stood up to remind him.
Hearing this, Zhang Bao came to his senses and felt rude. After giving Lin Mu a hard look, he suppressed his anger and did not lose his temper.
Zhang Bao took a few deep breaths. If it weren't for his fear, Zhang Bao would have tried his best to kill this person!
Lin Mu, seeing Guo Tu's actions, raised his eyebrows slightly and thought to himself: "Is this the counselor Xi Zhicai mentioned? A first-rate historical counselor, haha..."
Lin Mu already knew that Guo Tu's historical counselor level was completely different from Guo Jia's Xi Zhicai!
"Sir, don't know what to call me?" Lin Mu asked calmly.
Zhang Bao, who was next to him, snorted again when he saw Lin Mu acting like this.
"I'm just a nobody, how can I be worthy of General Lin Mu's concern?" Guo Tu said humbly.
"Sir, you are so humble! To be able to stand among the generals, you must be extraordinary." Lin Mu looked at Guo Tu with interest and praised.
Although he is a first-class historical counselor, he is also a top-notch human resources and cannot be easily turned against one another.
Guo Tu shook his head gently and fell silent without responding to Lin Mu's words.
Zhang Bao, who had regained his composure, held back his displeasure and said calmly: "General Lin, to make a long story short, the Wu Ba in your hands is a Chengyu Taoist disciple of our Holy Religion, and his family members are all in our Holy Religion. His parents are very concerned about Wu Ba, and if they want Wu Ba to go back and fulfill his filial piety, Lin Sima will not refuse! Of course, Wu Ba just goes back to fulfill his filial piety, and he will return to serve under Lin Sima!"
Will you come back? Believe your lies!
From the perspective of a filial son, Zhang Bao persuaded Lin Mu to hand over Wu Ba to him, hoping to gain nothing.
However, Lin Mu was not someone who could be fooled easily.
Lin Mu had a playful look on his face: "Although Wu Ba is a member of your sect, in order to be able to shine on his family, he has become an official. He has joined our Han army and served as a deputy general under me. In order to provide a stable environment for the people of the world. , Wu Ba is willing to work hard. So I hope to bring his relatives to Dongye City, so that it can be convenient for you! The general doesn’t want Wu Ba to become an unfaithful and unfilial person."
If he wants to talk nonsense, Lin Mu will not show weakness.
"Hmph..." Zhang Bao snorted coldly. Wu Ba was originally loyal to Taiping Dao and was captured by you. Now he is discussing the issue of disloyalty and unfilial piety. It is really shameless.
Zhang Bao did not get angry this time and continued: "In that case, let's have a gambling battle. We will send a general here, and you will send a general there, with Wu Ba as a bargaining chip. Whoever wins will win. who!"
Zhang Bao said this according to the plan designed by Guo Tu earlier.
"It's not impossible to have a gambling battle, but why is it that Wu Ba is the only one with this bargaining chip? You, a great sect, actually want to be a white wolf with nothing, haha..." Lin Mu looked playful again.
Guo Tu looked at Lin Mu and kept analyzing Lin Mu at this time in his heart. He didn't expect that Lin Mu could be so calm.
"What do you think?" Zhang Bao said.
"In this way, the gambling war can proceed, but if we have Wu Ba here, you will also have a share of chips! How about it!" Lin Mu said.
"Okay! How about I pay you a thousand gold coins?"
"Pfft...what did you say?" Lin Mu asked with a laugh after hearing this. The expression this time was not intentional, but really made Zhang Bao laugh.
For such an important Wu Ba, you actually offered a thousand gold coins. How stupid are you!
Guo Tu, who was next to Zhang Bao, was also slightly startled. This local general didn't play according to the routine! Didn’t you agree to produce the Xuanji illustrated book? It seems that Zhang Bao still views Lin Mu with a high level of dignity!
"Although we are all poor, Wu Ba is a great talent. How can he be worth only a thousand gold coins? If one thousand is followed by ten thousand words, that's okay!" Lin Mu joked.
"Ten million, do you dare to accept it?" Zhang Bao laughed angrily. Even Zhang Bao would not take out ten million gold coins so easily.
The foundation of Taiping Dao is sufficient, but it is only in terms of basic talents, resources, etc. There is not much real money.
"Haha... People die for money, and birds die for food! A poor man like me dares to accept any number of gold coins!" Lin Mu said with a smile.
However, Lin Mu's expression suddenly changed and he said: "Well, I heard that Envoy Zhang has a golden talisman in his hand. How about using it as a bargaining chip?"
Lin Mu directly stated his purpose.
"How do you know I touched the Golden Captain Talisman?" Zhang Bao blurted out this sentence and said in surprise when he heard this.
"Haha, I have my own channels. How about it? Do you dare to bet?" Lin Mu said confusedly.
