After listening to Zhang Bao's words, Fang Fu roughly understood what Zhang Bao meant.
Since the grassland people took the initiative to mention cooperation with Zhang Bao and the others, it must have come to a time when they had no choice but to cooperate.
Zhang Bao, on the other hand, did not completely deny the cooperation, which gave them hope.
But it is estimated that when Zhang Bao's follow-up conditions are passed, Chi Na from the Klie tribe will definitely scold her.
At this time, it was a real dilemma for the Kled tribe, and all plans were probably disrupted.
They need to delay time, and Zhang Bao also needs to delay time.
Fang Fu knew something.
Fan Hanzhong and the others are currently purging the states around Xiazhou.
The mobilization and gathering of these hundreds of thousands of troops is very troublesome.
Moreover, Fang Fu had also thought about it from Zhang Bao's perspective before.
at present.
The most troublesome thing about Zhang Bao and others in sending troops is not the strength of the troops, but the commander.
Although Fan Hanzhong commanded an invincible army, he was old after all. By attacking the capital this time, Fan Hanzhong and the others had already made great contributions.
This time when troops are sent to the grassland, Fan Hanzhong will probably not be in command again.
Zhang Bao has always focused on the construction of a talent echelon. Just like when he was in Hezhou, when there was no clue about anything, Zhang Bao had already accumulated many talented and knowledgeable young people.
But this time in Dongzhou, they dared to kill all directions.
Otherwise, without these people as the basis of Zhang Bao's governance, Zhang Bao would not dare to kill everyone.
Zhang Bao once said that no matter what time, talent is the most important.
It is precisely because of this.
When Zhang Bao does many things, he may not be the strongest, but he always has the right people under him to do it.
"Sir, the amount of gold and silver we can provide is enough for this time we send troops to the grassland."
"In other aspects, we may have relatively few here."
Fang Fu said to Zhang Bao.
"Don't worry, Zhao Sunlong and the others are not finished yet. When needed, he will come to you to ask for it."
"As long as you know how to do it by then."
Zhang Bao said to Fang Fu.
Fang Fu nodded.
Just as he suspected.
This time when we send troops to the grassland, the person most suitable to lead the team is Zhao Sunlong.
Now Zhao Sunlong already has the experience of leading a team in Jeju. Although his men are not many, their combat effectiveness is quite strong.
And I heard that most of them are cavalry. Even if they face the fierce prairie cavalry, they are not afraid at all.
Thinking of Zhao Sunlong's rapid penetration tactics from north to south in Jeju before, Fang Fu was a little frightened.
Could it be said that Zhang Bao had already started these arrangements when he asked Zhao Sunlong and others to lead the team to Jeju?
The terrain of Jeju is flat, similar to the grassland. Zhao Sunlong and the others have been practicing with cavalry, and they seem to be targeting the grassland.
When Fang Fu connected all these things, he looked at Zhang Bao in shock.
It is said that the ability to prepare for a rainy day can reveal a person's vision.
then.
Cao Kang has not yet been quelled, and even Zhang Bao's power is still a bit weak compared to Cao Kang. Unexpectedly, Zhang Bao would have already started planning the next battle at that time.
No wonder Zhang Bao was able to reach his current status at such an age without any sense of disobedience.
Some people are destined to be different from others.
"The ship is like this. All manpower and material resources have been doubled. I need to see the finished product as soon as possible, and I have already given the Japanese ships. I believe that the technical problems encountered before will be solved."
"From now on, I only look at the results."
"The affairs of Japan cannot be delayed."
Zhang Bao said to Fang Fu.
"Don't worry, sir, I understand."
"I will definitely put shipbuilding as my top priority."
"In addition, for the attack on the grassland, I can also provide a lot of troops. As long as there is need, I can provide people and money."
Fang Fu is also a smart man. From what he told Zhang Bao, he naturally guessed that Zhang Bao's current plan must be to fight against the grassland first. After solving the troubles in the grassland, he will probably attack the Japanese country.
What Zhang Bao is currently a little dissatisfied with is that the progress of shipbuilding is dragging down his plans.
From these two aspects.
The attack on Japan cannot be accomplished in a short time.
But there is always a step that needs to be taken, and this step is also a crucial beginning.
After taking this step, you can slowly figure it out.
But the grassland is different. The grassland requires a lot of accumulation and a decisive move.
Zhang Bao can tell himself so much, so naturally he doesn't just explain everything to himself. Fang Fu can understand this.
"Okay, I won't be polite to you."
"Before, Dongzhou was a bank for Daxia, and it is even more like this now."
"Wars are all about making money, but after conquering the grasslands, there probably won't be any more wars to fight."
Zhang Bao smiled and said.
"Sir, I have something to say, I don't know whether to say it or not."
Fang Fu hesitated for a moment and said to Zhang Bao.
"Tell me, there are no outsiders here."
Zhang Bao took a sip of tea.
"Sir, the world is settled now, and the Emperor's presence is almost non-existent. Why don't you take this opportunity..."
Fang Fu said while looking at Zhang Bao.
These words are naturally taboo.
After Fang Fu said it, he regretted it.
"Wait a minute, before the time comes, it's too early to say what the world has said. They all say that the whole world is not the king's land. Isn't this grassland, this Japanese country, not our territory?"
"Especially the Japanese country has been an integral part of our Daxia since a long time ago, but it was just occupied by this group of people who don't recognize their ancestors."
"When the world is united, maybe that's the right time."
Zhang Bao said to Fang Fu with a smile.
Fang Fu was stunned.
Obviously, he didn't expect Zhang Bao to have such great ambitions.
The previous emperors were content if they could stick to their own territory and enjoy themselves.
But Zhang Bao did not have this ambition, he had a higher ambition. Thinking of the future scene where the four seas would be reunited, even Fang Fu, who had always been calm, became excited.
"Sir, after hearing what you say, I regret being a state shepherd. I'm so busy with daily affairs that I can't even get a warm meal."
"It would be great if I could still lead troops to fight."
Fang Fu also smiled and said.
"you deserve it."
"Just figure it out yourself."
"Look at other state shepherds, how can they be so cheerful and still manage well?"
"If you do everything yourself, it won't be enough to exhaust you to death."
“You must know how to delegate authority, know how to try and make mistakes, and be confident and bold.”
Zhang Bao patted Fang Fu on the shoulder and stood up.
"Okay, no more words, I'm leaving for Liaozhou immediately."
"The matter over there is imminent. The longer it is delayed, the better it will be for the prairie people."
