Chapter 880: Hesitation

If it was the first time that Zhang Baoer made a big fuss in Kangju City and made Su Jia lose face, then this time Su Jia was completely disgraced.

Su Jia was eager to break Zhang Bao'er's body into thousands of pieces, and his anger at Zhang Bao'er had reached the point of no return, so he even deigned to go to Qu Dibo's governor's palace to seek advice. He has been completely carried away by anger, as long as he can kill Zhang Bao'er, he will be willing to do whatever he asks him to do now.

……

Although Qu Dibo was still the nominal governor, in reality he no longer had military power. After Suliman succeeded him as caliph, Qu Dibo had realized that he would not have anything good, and Suga had seized his military power, Qu Dibo was not surprised, nor did he think too much, just quietly waited for that day to come in the governor's palace.

Since Suga became the new commander of the Great Food Army, Qu Dibo has not been able to take half a step out of the gate of the Governor's Palace, let alone meet Suga himself. Therefore, Su Jia's visit today still made Qu Dibo feel a little surprised.

Listening to Su Jia's words, Qu Dibo sighed secretly in his heart. Although Zhang Baoer is young, Qu Dibo has read countless people, and he has long seen that Zhang Baoer is not a simple opponent, even if he fights Zhang Baoer, he may not be able to gain the upper hand, let alone Su Jia?

Su Jia saw that Qu Dibo was silent, thinking that Qu Dibo was still worried about the seizure of military power. He knew Qu Dibo very well, and knew that Qu Dibo ate soft and not hard, so he had already thought of countermeasures when he came.

Su Jia changed his humble appearance, and said to Qu Dibo with remorse: "Your Excellency, it is the will of the Venerable Caliph to seize your military power, and I can't do anything about it, I don't know if I don't take charge of the army, and now I understand how hard-won the achievements you have achieved in the Nine Kingdoms of Zhaowu." Now I'm in trouble, please Governor, you must do me this favor and exterminate these damn Tang people! ”

Seeing Qu Dibo bowing his head and muttering silently, Su Jia was anxious, and he said loudly: "Even if I, Su Jia, can't I stand you, can't the Great Food Empire be able to stand you?" How could the Governor-General stand idly by the sight of the interests of the Empire being harmed? ”

Qu Dibo shuddered, and he jerked his head up, his lips curling but he didn't say anything.

After a long time, Qu Dibo sighed and said to Su Jia: "Okay, I promise you!" However, I have one condition! ”

"You say, what conditions!" Su Jia said without thinking: "As long as I can destroy those Tang people, I will promise you any conditions!" ”

"The army is under my command, you can't interfere!" Qu Dibo said slowly.

"What?" Su Jia's face changed, and he looked Qu Dibo up and down.

Qu Dibo snorted and said, "I'm afraid that you will command blindly and ruin my plan!" Don't think too much about it, you're still the commander of the army when this is over! ”

Listening to Qu Dibo's merciless words, Su Jia's face turned blue and white for a while, he tried his best to restrain the anger in his heart, and nodded with a gloomy face: "I promised, Lord Governor, hurry up!" ”

With that, Suga turned and left.

Qu Dibo didn't notice it, and the moment Su Jia turned around, there was a sinister smile on his face.

……

After listening to Yan Gu's report, Zhang Bao'er asked, "Gu'er, is your news accurate?" ”

Yan Gu nodded and said: "It's true, there are fifty carts, more than a hundred coachmen, and more than three hundred soldiers, and my people have been following them from afar, it will definitely not be wrong!" ”

"What's in the car?" Zhang Baoer asked again.

"I don't know!" Yan Gu shook his head: "The cars are covered with tarpaulins, and the people who follow them don't dare to approach, and they can't see what they are loading!" ”

Zhang Baoer raised her eyebrows when she heard this, and was speechless for a while.

Seeing this, the black scorpion couldn't help but be anxious, and urged: "Dingguo Gong, what are you hesitating about such a good opportunity?" ”

Zhang Bao'er shook his head and said, "The big cannibals have suffered enough from us, how can they not have a long memory and give us such a good opportunity?" There must be a demon when things go wrong, I guess it's a conspiracy! ”

Speaking of this, Zhang Baoer looked at Hou Huai'an: "Brother Hou, what do you think?" ”

Hou Huaian nodded and said, "I also think there may be a problem here!" ”

Zhang Bao'er asked Yan Gu again, "Didn't your people find anything abnormal in the process of tracking?" Is there a secret escort from the Big Food Army? ”

"Nope!" Yan Gu shook his head affirmatively and said, "I have sent someone to check, and there is no trace of the Great Food Army within a radius of thirty miles!" ”

"Dingguo Gong, let's do it, we can't let go of such a good opportunity!" The black scorpion looked at Zhang Bao'er expectantly.

"No way!" Zhang Baoer muttered: "We didn't do it this time, we just lost an opportunity, if we act rashly, it may bring us disastrous consequences!" ”

Now that Zhang Baoer has decided, although the black scorpion is helpless, he has to obey, but the unwillingness on his face is undoubtedly revealed.

Zhang Bao'er was about to persuade the black scorpion again, but saw a strong man striding towards him.

"Dingguo Gong, good news!" The strong man said happily when he saw Zhang Bao'er.

"Leader Huo, what's the good news?" Zhang Baoer asked,

The Great Cannibals used coercive means to force the Sogdians to believe in the Great Food Religion, so that many Sogdians had to make false promises in order to protect themselves, but some Sogdians were not willing to do so, and defected to the Black Scorpion to attack the Great Cannibals everywhere.

In addition to Zhang Bao'er and Hou Huai'an's subordinates, they also had a Sogdian team by their side. The team was a diverse group of civilians, monks, merchants, soldiers, and even many rangers and bandits, and Huo Qiang was the leader of this team.

Huo Qiang is a true Sogdian, his ancestors have always been in business, but he became a ranger, for no other reason, just because he likes it. Others may defect to the black scorpion because of their hatred for the big cannibal, but Huo Qiang is not like this, he has his own thoughts.

Huo Qiang has always been in love with the black scorpion, the black scorpion used to be a lone ranger, and the black scorpion is strong in martial arts, he has no chance to get close to the black scorpion, so he can only hide this thought deeply. But now, the black scorpion hates the big cannibal to the core, whoever kills the big cannibal, the black scorpion not only does not reject it, but also takes it in, how could Huo Qiang miss such a good opportunity, and he defected to the black scorpion without hesitation.

Huo Qiang lowered his voice and said: "My subordinates have heard that there is a big cannibal baggage team entering Kangguo, and it will arrive in Kangju City at noon tomorrow, we can do a big one and eat them all!" ”

Zhang Bao'er's brows frowned even tighter, the news that should have been very secret, but now it is spreading, if there is no ghost here, he will not believe it.
