"Yes, leaving this matter aside, this force hidden behind is indeed a bit strange. It can be said that the Zheng family's incident last time really helped us a lot. Otherwise, we still wouldn't be able to dig out the Zheng family. come out."
"Coupled with what happened this time, it's obvious that they are helping us, but what's the motive?"
"I really can't think of the reason why they did this. They obviously helped us, but they didn't reveal any information to us, as if they were afraid that we would know."
"I can't figure it out."
Zhang Bao also nodded.
Counting it all, this is already the third time. The first time for the Zheng family, Zhang Bao and the others knew the real owner behind it immediately, so they reacted so quickly.
The second time was when Zhang Bao sought medical treatment for Su Xiaoyue. If this force had not sent the news to people in various counties in advance, they would not have been able to arrive in time with doctors and medicine.
This is the third time. Zhang Bao would never have thought that four states would unite to deal with Hezhou.
Before Zhang Bao, he had certain manpower preparations in Dongzhou and Taizhou, but he was not prepared for Jeju and Shaanzhou. Once they took advantage of the situation, it would be really difficult to handle.
Calculating it this way, the favor owed is huge.
"Sir, after the last incident of delivering letters to various counties in Hezhou, I did some research, and I can only know that this organization is not in our Hezhou, and the people it came into contact with seemed to be women, and there was no trace of anything else. News.”
"Duan is extremely mysterious, and he has such a powerful intelligence network. He actually understands our side of Hezhou. If they didn't have any ill intentions, they would be very troublesome."
Fan Hanzhong was also a little worried.
"In this case, let's not worry about it for now. If they have malicious intentions, I'm afraid it will be difficult for us to predict."
"The most important thing now is the affairs of these states."
"What do you think we should do?"
"What's the situation with the troops we have now?"
Zhang Bao asked Fan Hanzhong.
"Sir, are we still afraid of them?"
"Just let them come!"
"Now we in Hezhou have a strong army. We dare not say we can win in attack, but our defense is foolproof!"
Fan Hanzhong said to Zhang Bao.
During this period, Fan Hanzhong was hardly idle at all. He was running back and forth between counties and counties, supervising and supervising the training situation in various places. Moreover, Fan Hanzhong also selected 10,000 horses and led them to various places in Hezhou. Carry out exploratory sneak attacks and attacks in an elusive manner.
It can be said that in all counties and counties in Hezhou, the string is very tight.
Be fully prepared for battle at any time.
Even if someone attacks, they are used to it.
When Fan Hanzhong and the others were training, they were completely based on the actual battlefield.
This kind of friction between spear and shield.
For them, there has been a huge improvement on both offense and defense.
Even now, if someone attacks this city wall, they don't need the general's order at all. Everyone can get to their positions immediately and know how to defend themselves against the enemy.
Under such circumstances, when Fan Hanzhong heard the news about their joint attack, not only did he not have any worries, but he also had some expectations.
For such a long time, the position of state pastor has been suppressed and restricted too much. For Fan Hanzhong, only the battlefield is the most suitable for him.
Having been in the position of Zhou Mu for such a long time, he has seen too much of the affairs of the court.
Fan Hanzhong's loyalty to the imperial court was worn away bit by bit.
It's not that Fan Hanzhong will rebel, but that Fan Hanzhong no longer has any expectations for the court and the emperor.
But on the battlefield, Fan Hanzhong could forget all this.
"We will definitely fight, but if we fight, the whole north will be completely in chaos."
"Four states are involved at once. I can't let Fu Mingli of Liaozhou stay out of the matter. He must be involved. In this case, all five states in the north have participated. It can be said that the entire northern region is in chaos. ”
"In that case, I feel that the Great Sima Cao Kang will never just watch. He will definitely take the opportunity to do something."
"I didn't really think about what he would do."
"And even if our troops here are sufficient and their combat effectiveness is relatively strong, if we really fight with so many people, we will never suffer any losses at all."
"In this way, in the end, our overall strength will probably become very weak. At this time, it is very likely that we will be targeted by others, which will be very troublesome."
"So all-out war is one way, but it's not the best way!"
Zhang Bao said to Fan Hanzhong.
"Then according to your wishes, what should we do?"
"The current situation is probably not one that we won't fight if we don't want to fight."
Fan Hanzhong shook his head.
If it's true what they said.
Taizhou will definitely take the initiative, and if Dongzhou takes action, Shaanzhou and Jeju will never let go of this opportunity to get a piece of the pie.
I am afraid that even if there is no instigation from Dongzhou, they will definitely take action.
"I plan to take down Dongzhou with lightning speed!"
"Didn't they attack us under Dongzhou's instigation? I will destroy this initial spark for them!"
"Even if they want to take action against us, they will still have to think carefully about it when the time comes."
Zhang Bao said to Fan Hanzhong.
"This... although it is feasible to do this, I'm afraid it won't be that easy for us to kill Dongzhou in a short time."
"And as soon as we move, after they get the news, they will immediately press forward with full pressure. At that time, the pressure will still be on our side."
Fan Hanzhong said with some worry.
"Don't worry, you don't need to take action to destroy Dongzhou. I can just take Bai Fang and the Tielin Army with me."
"Two thousand people are enough to destroy a state."
"Don't forget, during this period, the explosives in Hejian Village have been filled up. I also need to replace and update some of them. Otherwise, if they are placed in the tunnel, there will still be some moisture."
Zhang Bao said with a smile.
"Two thousand people wiped out a state?"
"Sir, you are too joking..."
Fan Hanzhong swallowed.
Even if Dongzhou is the weakest state, it has nearly 100,000 troops. How could it be killed by 2,000 people?
Even with the powerful weapons like before, it won't work.
They also have bows and arrows. When the time comes, thousands of arrows will be fired, and there is nothing you can do.
"Who said I was going to wipe out a state?"
"Isn't Yang Gan looking for trouble?"
"Wouldn't it be over if I kill these troublemakers?"
"What I'm hesitating about now is, after killing Yang Gan, who should I let be the state pastor of Dongzhou?"
"After all, we don't know much about Dongzhou."
Zhang Bao said with a smile.
Fan Hanzhong:? ? ? ? ?
? ? ? ? ? ?
Are you considering who should be the state pastor of Dongzhou?
This is too...
And you are a state pastor, but you want to be a commando captain?
Take two thousand people to make trouble against one hundred thousand people.
Fan Hanzhong didn't know what to say.
At this time, Fan Hanzhong suddenly had a feeling in his heart that what he had been doing recently did not seem to be of great significance to Zhang Bao...
"Sir, can I ask more, is the reason why you are targeting Dongzhou so much because you have other plans in Dongzhou?"
Fan Hanzhong thought for a while and asked Zhang Bao.
