From the news brought back by the school captain, Cao Shuo and Guo Jia both saw that King Ma Han had already planned to succumb.

The trouble was with the courtier named Jing Hao beside him.

"That Jing Hao is really a big trouble." Cao Shuo said to Guo Jia: "If it weren't for him, I wouldn't have the slightest doubt that King Ma Han would send King Benhan back." But he's ......."

"It's just a small person, so there's no need to worry about it." Guo Jia said: "Send out Fire Dance and assassinate him." ”

"Assassinate Ma Han's courtiers at this time?" Cao Shuo asked, "Will it arouse the hatred of the Mahan people?" ”

"So what?" Guo Jia said: "If Ma Han dares to be our enemy, we will find a way to rebel against their slaves. If they don't fight against us, Gongzi will capture their king and send them back to the Central Plains. No matter how you calculate, the strategy of Ma Han is much less worry-free than that of Benhan. ”

"I used to think that if I gave the slaves freedom, they would follow me." Cao Shuo said: "But I obviously ignore the servility in the bones of some of these people. Benhan has been wiped out by us, but there are still some slaves who follow the slave master and make enemies of us. ”

"It's alien anyway, so it's okay to kill more." Guo Jia smiled slightly and asked Cao Shuo: "Gongzi was very murderous when he attacked the Huns. Later, he also wanted to cut down the grass and eradicate the roots, why did he have compassion for the Sanhan people? ”

"On the battlefield, when did you ever see me feel compassionate?" Cao Shuo asked with a smile.

"I don't think so." Guo Jia asked: "Since the son is not compassionate, why do you feel sorry for those slaves?" ”

"I'm just feeling humanity." Cao Shuo said: "Those people are not afraid of death, but they are afraid of their former masters from the bottom of their bones, and even after I broke through Benhan and gave them freedom, they still chose to stand with their former masters, which is really incomprehensible." ”

"Childe just said that some people are servile in their bones." Guo Jia said: "Even if Gongzi gave them freedom, they were already afraid of their past masters, and of course they didn't dare to change easily. ”

"Looks like I'll have to order them all to be killed." Cao Shuo smiled indifferently and asked Cao Zhang, who was following him: "From now on, if you meet Benhan people who dare to resist, no matter what they once were, they will not be left alive!" ”

Cao Chang surrendered his hand and asked Cao Shuo: "Eldest brother, the Benhan people have retreated to the border with Ma Han, do you want to fight?" ”

"Absolutely." Cao Shuo said: "If you don't keep prisoners, you want to hand over this battle to you." ”

"Thank you, brother." Since the landing, Cao Zhang has been the first soldier in every battle, and when he learned that Cao Shuo was going to be handed over to him to fight, he was immediately overjoyed, and hurriedly thanked Cao Shuo.

"Pick up the troops and set off immediately." Cao Shuo commanded.

Cao Zhang responded, left the tent, and selected soldiers and horses to fight.

Guo Jia asked Cao Shuo, "When does Gongzi plan to send an envoy to see King Ma Han again?" ”

"Wait until Ziwen wins this battle." Cao Shuo said: "If we don't let the Mahan people see our strength with their own eyes, it will be difficult for them to make up their minds to please us. ”

He then shouted outside the tent: "Deng Zhan! ”

Deng Zhan entered the tent and asked him, "What does Childe command?" ”

"Immediately contact the fire dance who came with Sanhan." Cao Shuo said: "Kill the one named Jing Hao." ”

"Do you want to bring the head back?" Deng Zhan asked.

"No, you don't." Cao Shuo said: "Hang the heads of the people at the gate of their city, let them know that they are clamoring to be our enemies, and perhaps one of them will move from their necks without realizing it." ”

"I'll do it." Deng Zhan responded.

Since meeting the envoy sent by Cao Shuo, King Ma Han has not slept even a single sleep these days.

He was worried about the arrival of the Cao family's army all the time.

This night, he was lying with a beautiful woman in his arms, and a report came from outside the door: "King, something happened to Jing Hao......"

Hearing that Jing Hao had an accident, Ma Han Wang sat up violently and asked outside the door, "What's the matter?" ”

"Back to the king." The guard said: "He was killed in his home, and his head is missing. ”

Jing Hao is the figure who fought the main battle before.

Although he doesn't agree with his concept, King Ma Han usually relies on him very much.

Getting up and putting on his clothes, leaving the beauty who was still lying there, he beckoned a group of guards to Jing Hao's house.

When he reached the outside of the courtyard, he heard a terrible howl coming from inside.

Surrounded by guards, he entered Jing Hao's house, and before King Ma Han had time to ask someone, several people ran over to him.

"Meet the King!" Several people knelt down in front of King Ma Han, crying like tearful people.

"What's going on?" Knowing that Jing Hao was dead, King Ma Han was still looking forward to the news being wrong!

"My brother is dead...... The man who took the lead wiped his red eyes and said to King Ma Han: "Please also ask the king to make the decision for him." ”

"What about people?" King Ma Han asked.

"It's in the backyard." Jing Hao's brother answered.

"Take me to see it." King Mahan commanded.

Several people who came to greet him answered and led him into the backyard.

Jing Hao has been an official for many years, and his family has raised a lot of slaves.

When King Ma Han arrived, Jing Hao's family was discussing how many slaves to kill for burial.

"Where are the people?" Breaking into the room where Jing Hao's family was deliberating, he asked everyone.

When they saw that it was him, they all stood up and saluted.

"Where are you, I ask?" No one responded, and King Ma Han glared at them and yelled at them.

"It's the back." A man who looked to be the oldest hurriedly replied.

King Ma Han knows him, he is Jing Hao's brother, and he is also an official in Ma Han, his ability is worse than Jing Hao, and the official work is relatively small.

Jing Hao is dead, and he can only make up his mind about the affairs of the family.

Knowing that Jing Hao's body was behind, King Ma Han hurriedly ran over.

Several guards and Jing Hao's family members followed closely behind him.

Jing Hao's body was covered with a white cloth, and when he came to him, King Ma Han trembled and uncovered a corner of the white cloth.

Just one glance, he sat on the ground with a frightened scream.

Lying in front of him was a corpse with a severed head.

"King!" The guards hurriedly stepped forward to help him up, but Jing Hao's family knelt on the ground, not daring to look up at him.

Swallowing his saliva, Ma Han Wang Qiang asked everyone from the town, "Human heads...... What about the head......"

No one could answer him, and when Jing Hao's body was found, the head was gone.

King Ma Han was about to ask where the head was, when a man hurriedly ran in and saluted him and said, "King, something happened......
