"grown ups!"
"Why did you come so soon?!"
Fang Fu was a little surprised.
According to the speed they expected, it would still take half a month for Zhang Bao to arrive here.
"I heard that the Japanese were taking action, so I didn't wait and asked a group of them to follow. I led a group of people to kill them first."
Zhang Bao said to Fang Fu.
Fang Fu saw that there was a lot of blood on Zhang Bao's body, and he must have been killed all the way.
"What's the situation now?"
Zhang Bao ignored Fang Fu's surprise, came to the map and looked at it, and asked Fang Fu.
Fang Fu demonstrated to Zhang Bao the current actions of the Japanese and the Xiazhou troops on the map.
Zhang Bao also frowned slightly.
After a while, he turned his head and looked at everyone.
"Okay, it's not big. There are only so many people in a small Japanese country, so we can't cause any trouble. Let's all go down and rest. Pay close attention to the movements around you. If there is any news, we will summarize it and send it over immediately."
Zhang Bao said to the others.
Everyone walked out one after another, leaving only Fang Fu and Zhang Bao in the tent.
"Being a state pastor has been a lot of pressure lately, right?"
Zhang Bao asked Fang Fu.
"is a bit."
"The higher the position, the more things you have to bear."
"States and counties are still different, and small battles are different from big wars."
"Recently, the scheduling in all aspects has indeed been a bit chaotic."
Fang Fu said to Zhang Bao apologetically.
In his opinion, Zhang Bao promoted him to the position of Zhou Mu just because he wanted him to support Dongzhou alone.
The results appear now.
I'm afraid my ability is not enough.
I originally thought that all counties had been completely captured, but from Zhang Bao's bloody appearance, I knew that there might be many unexpected situations.
I originally thought that I had control over these armies under the generals, but I didn't expect that they would be defeated at the first touch, without giving me any time to react.
I originally thought that I could hold on and take over things in Dongzhou, but now I still need Zhang Bao, the state shepherd, to come all the way here in person.
Fang Fu felt very frustrated.
"Do you know why you were transferred from Hezhou to serve as the state pastor of Dongzhou?"
Zhang Bao looked at Fang Fu's dejected face and patted Fang Fu on the shoulder.
"This... subordinate really doesn't know!"
"I guess it's your trust in your subordinates, but your subordinates have failed to live up to your expectations!"
Fang Fu raised his hands to Zhang Bao and said.
"Trust is certainly an important aspect, but what I value most is your ability to grow!"
"We just met before. You were just a hunter hiding in the mountains. Later, you went to Liaozhou with me. I believe you are also aware of your own changes."
"So after I came back, I asked you to be the governor of Beihai County. Why, at that time, did you think you were qualified to be the governor of Beihai County?"
Zhang Bao asked Fang Fu.
"cannot!"
"In the first two or three months after I took office, I could hardly sleep at night. I was unfamiliar with the place and had no available people. I could only manage to get better by paying attention to the rules and authority. I have been busy for half a year, and the matter in Beihai County is finally settled. Handy.”
Fang Fu said with a wry smile.
"This time Dongzhou is actually similar."
"It's just that there are too many resources that need to be deployed, and many of them are unfamiliar, so they are panicking. In addition, with the confrontation with the Japanese and Xiazhou people, these aspects are really not enough."
Fang Fu was a little helpless.
"Yes, you have to know that no matter how powerful a person is, if you put him in your position, he will face this kind of situation, even me!"
"Now you want to express yourself too much and want to do everything perfectly at the same time. This situation is not acceptable."
"You have to know how to delegate power, and you also have to know how to make choices."
"This is true for the management of Dongzhou, and the same is true for fighting."
"Think about it, who is more harmful, the Japanese or the Xiazhou troops?"
Zhang Bao asked Fang Fu.
"Of course they are Japanese!"
"They appear and disappear. Every time they pass by, they start massacres there. Now the people of Dongzhou are panic-stricken."
"As for the people in Xiazhou, they are only here to target us. They will not cause any harm to Dongzhou."
Fang Fu said without hesitation.
"so what?"
"When Xiazhou's troops come in, just come in. At worst, we'll have to fight them out again!"
"What, you can't beat me?"
Zhang Bao asked Fang Fu with a smile.
Then I came to the map and drew a line.
After listening to Zhang Bao's words, Fang Fu suddenly became enlightened.
In the past, I was worried about gains and losses, grasping with both hands, and I was destined to not be able to take care of anything.
But if we concentrate our forces to beat one side hard, and then attack the other side after completely annihilating it, it will only be a matter of time at best.
"Thank you, sir!"
"I know what to do!"
Fang Fu said to Zhang Bao.
"good!"
"And, do you know why you let them all go out just now?"
Zhang Bao asked with a smile again.
"I see!"
"My lord, you want to help me establish my authority. I still have the final say in Dongzhou!"
Fang Fu nodded.
"That's right!"
"Although I'm here, you still have the final say in Dongzhou."
"You can do whatever you want with confidence. Dongzhou is yours. If anyone refuses to accept it, kill him directly. At worst, we will rebuild it after it is destroyed. Even if the people are gone, I will transfer it to you from Hezhou!"
"This battle is the battle for your rise. Whether you, the Dongzhou State Shepherd, can stand still depends entirely on you!"
Zhang Bao said to Fang Fu.
"Thank you, sir!"
Fang Fu raised his hands and said to Zhang Bao.
"In addition, as for Xiazhou, I also have a way to temporarily hold them back. Since it is Dongzhou, we must give full play to Dongzhou's advantages."
"Sometimes, fighting requires more than just people."
Zhang Bao smiled.
"Dongzhou's advantage?"
Fang Fu was a little puzzled.
"Yes, isn't Dongzhou rich?"
"Money can make the world go round, and money can make Cao Kang's troops stop. Do you believe it?"
Zhang Bao grinned.
