"More than 10,000 people?"
"So many?"
Zhang Bao was also surprised. He originally thought that if the number of people was small, he would be wiped out secretly.
But there were more than 10,000 people at once. If any news leaked out, then these 10,000 people would probably rise up and fight back immediately.
Even if the news doesn't leak out, it is not a simple matter to deal with these ten thousand people at once.
"Yes, and there are some masters among them!"
Fang Fu said with a worried look.
Now, after knowing Zhu Yue's power, he is even more grateful.
Thanks to Zhang Bao's reckless pursuit and killing of Zhu Yue in Liaozhou, otherwise, it would have been almost impossible to kill Zhu Yue if he had not left Hezhou.
Even if you take action, the best result is probably to die together, and it is impossible to escape unscathed.
"In this case, it would be difficult to handle..."
Zhang Bao frowned.
"By the way, where is Grand Sima Cao Kang?"
Suddenly, Zhang Bao asked Fang Fu and Wu Dayong.
"Da Sima?"
"Then who knows?"
Wu Dayong shook his head.
"I don't know either, but it should be in the Grand Sima Mansion in Xiazhou. After all, the new emperor in the court is young now, and the Grand Sima is in control of everything."
"Even if he is not in Da Sima's mansion, he must be in Xiazhou."
"But sir, I'm afraid it will be difficult for Da Sima to take action. Xiazhou is already guarding the forest and has heavy troops stationed there."
Fang Fu said hesitantly.
Hearing Zhang Bao ask about the whereabouts of Cao Kang, the great commander, Fang Fu's first reaction was that Zhang Bao was going to attack Cao Kang.
But Fang Fu knew that he couldn't even deal with Zhu Yue, let alone Da Sima.
"It's difficult to do it, we can let them go."
"Otherwise, what are these more than 10,000 people doing here idle?"
Zhang Bao said with a smile.
"ah?"
"Sir, do you mean to let Zhu Yue's men go to Xiazhou to kill Da Sima?"
"This is a good way to kill someone with a borrowed knife!"
"And in this way, we can also alienate the relationship between Da Sima and Zhu Yue. Even if we know that Zhu Yue is dead, we will not be implicated too much."
Fang Fu's eyes lit up.
"What do you mean?"
"Why didn't I understand?"
"Are those people so obedient?"
Wu Dayong asked with a grin on his face, listening to the clouds and fog.
"Don't forget our current status. We are now Zhu Yue's spokesperson. Since these ten thousand of them have the ability, we must use it."
"After all, Zhu Yue's matter can't be kept secret for too long. Sooner or later it will be leaked. We must take advantage of this time to do something as soon as possible."
"Don't forget the twelve generals under Zhu Yue, and some of them are scattered in Hezhou."
Zhang Bao said to the two of them.
In Zhang Bao's view, the time difference and lack of information are always Daxia's biggest opportunities now and the best opportunity he can take advantage of.
"Then what do we do?"
Wu Dayong asked Zhang Bao.
"In this way, the news will spread that the governor is in Liaozhou and was ambushed and assassinated by the people of Grand Sima Cao Kang."
"The governor sent back the news and took action against Cao Kang."
"Let these ten thousand of them freely combine and go to Xiazhou to kill the great Sima Cao Kang. Whether it is assassination, drugging, sap or directly leading people to kill, it just depends on the result!"
"As for whether they can come back alive, it depends on their lives."
"There are more than 10,000 people. Even if Cao Kang is heavily guarded, it is still enough for him to drink a pot."
Zhang Bao said to Fang Fu with a smile.
"Sir, can they listen so honestly?"
Wu Dayong was a little worried on the side.
"You underestimate Zhu Yue's brainwashing ability. Zhu Yue was born in modern times. If he were born thousands of years later, he would be either a cult leader or a pyramid scheme king."
"Don't worry, we haven't shown any cowardice for such a long time, they won't suspect it."
"If anyone doubts it, deal with it in public, and then blame it on Xizuo, who was appointed by Da Sima Cao Kang."
Zhang Bao stood up.
Fang Fu and Wu Dayong nodded and went to make arrangements respectively.
Zhang Bao returned to the backyard and saw Lao He busy in the kitchen, so he came over.
During this period, Lao He had been healing while walking. When they heard that Zhang Bao and the others had arrived in Beihai City, they followed him all the way.
"You kid, did you come back with the smell?"
"Try the freshly made noodles!"
"Is it better than what you did?"
Lao He grinned and served Zhang Bao a bowl of noodles.
After Lao He ate the hand-made noodles made by Zhang Bao before, he followed Zhang Bao to learn it.
Now his noodle making skills are no worse than Zhang Bao’s.
"good!"
"You can start your studies now. By the way, remember to pay the tuition."
Zhang Bao said with a smile.
"You want to eat my noodles and you still want to ask me for money?"
"You kid is looking for a beating!"
Lao He served himself a large bowl of noodles.
He squatted on the threshold and started eating.
After a while, the bowl of noodles was completely eaten, and Zhang Bao was a little surprised. Even though Lao He was very thin, this appetite was really big.
Many martial arts practitioners have a greater appetite than ordinary people.
"I am full?"
Zhang Bao asked with a smile.
"belch--"
"full!"
Lao He burped with satisfaction.
"By the way, why do you want to come to me?"
"Isn't it just to eat noodles with me?"
Lao He asked Zhang Bao.
"I want you to go out to dinner with me at the famous Zuixian Tower in Beihai City."
"I specially ordered the signature Drunken Duck, as well as roasted chicken, braised pork knuckle, crispy squid and more."
"By the way, I heard that there are still sweet-scented osmanthus brews that are more than ten years old!"
Zhang Bao raised his eyebrows and said to Lao He.
"What?"
"Eating meat and drinking wine in Zuixianlou?"
"You brat, you didn't tell me earlier!"
"Then what else should I eat noodles?!"
Lao He stared in annoyance.
"Hey, come with me."
Zhang Bao smiled and pulled up Lao He and walked out.
"Wait, who are you drinking with? Just the two of us?"
Lao He asked.
"There is also Hezhou Prefect Fan Hanzhong, there are only three of us."
"Fooling... um no, let's discuss something."
Zhang Bao said to Lao He.
"Fan Hanzhong? General Fan?"
"real or fake?"
"He is a state shepherd. Can he pay attention to us?"
Lao He asked hesitantly.
"Just follow along!"
"You're so annoying when I invite you to dinner!"
Zhang Bao did not tell Lao He about Fan Hanzhong. Firstly, when he met Lao He, the situation was urgent and he had no time to talk about these things. Secondly, Zhang Bao was afraid that if Lao He knew about it, he would not It's so good to disguise, after all, Lao He's temperament is indeed a bit... out of control...
For Zhang Bao, this 'Fan Hanzhong' is still of some use.
After all, he has followed Zhu Yue for such a long time, and he still knows some of Zhu Yue's forces. Zhang Bao needs to use him to clear out the hidden forces of Zhu Yue.
To cut weeds, we must remove the roots.
Otherwise, it would still be very troublesome for these forces to lurk.
"No, what are you discussing and what should I do?"
"I really can't eat anymore..."
Lao He looked like he was crying.
"Of course you went there to drink. If you don't put him down, how can I talk about it?"
Zhang Bao couldn't help but pick up Lao He and leave.
"Hey, hey, you brat, wait for me for a while."
"We can't waste our time eating meat and drinking wine..."
"I press the base of my tongue and spit something out..."
