Hurried footsteps could be heard from a large mansion in the mouth of the water.

"The lord" A man dressed as a scribe bowed to Zheng Bao, who was sitting on the throne.

Zheng Bao looked at the scribe who came and suddenly stood up: "How is the situation?" ”

"Taishou returned to the Yellow Turban and was defeated," the scribe replied.

Zheng Bao frowned, obviously these news were not what he wanted: "What about the loss of the White Sail Water Thief?" ”

"I don't know," the scribe's lips moved, but he replied truthfully.

Zheng Bao's eyes flashed with anger: "Why don't you know? ”

"Although the Yellow Turban and the White Sail Thieves fought, the fighting was not fierce, so the subordinates could not infer the exact casualties from the intelligence," the scribe replied.

Then he seemed to think of something, and continued to add: "I just heard that Changhe Town launched a fierce attack on the Yellow Turban camp when Taishou returned to help, and it is said that some people were killed on both sides."

"Changhe Town?" Zheng Bao couldn't help but be surprised.

suddenly came to his senses, and subconsciously raised his voice: "It's not good, with the relationship between the Jia clan and Lu Kang in Wancheng, I'm afraid that there will be an accident in the position of the head of Chaohu."

"Change?" The scribes also panicked.

Zheng Bao's eyes showed a hint of killing intent, and he clenched his hands into fists: "Damn, where did this Changhe Town come from?" ”

"Could it be the private army of the Jia clan in Wancheng," the scribe replied.

Zheng Bao shook his head: "Impossible, weren't they killed by Chen Ce, the heroic commander in the mountains?" ”

"This?" The scribe hesitated, the scene of the fall of the Jia clan in Anhui City was still vivid, and those private soldiers now thought that it was indeed impossible for rats crossing the street.

At this moment, there was the sound of hurried footsteps, interrupting Zheng Bao's contemplation.

"Head of the family" Zheng Lianzhong bowed.

Zheng Bao asked, "How are you preparing there?" ”

"I will mobilize 100 soldiers in Chao County, and just wait for the head of the family to give an order, and then I can send troops to exterminate Baifan Water Village as a county lieutenant" Zheng Liancheng replied loudly.

Zheng Bao's eyes flashed: "The plan has changed, you immediately return to Chaoxian County and go straight to Changhe Town"

"Changhe Town?" Zheng Lianzhong looked puzzled.

Think quickly: "But Changhe Village? ”

"Exactly" Zheng Bao said through gritted teeth, and the murderous aura gradually spread.

Zheng Lianzhong frowned: "Unprovoked attack on the subordinate villages of Chao County, although I am a county lieutenant, I am afraid that it is a little inappropriate."

"The head of the family, I still want to think twice about this matter," Zheng Lianzhong advised.

The corners of Zheng Bao's mouth flashed with a sneer: "Do you know what Changhe Town has done?" ”

"Please also ask the head of the family to inform," Zheng Lian Zheng asked.

Zheng Bao said loudly: "They didn't know where to get the soldiers and horses, and sent troops to the Yellow Turban camp when Taishou returned to help. If what I expected is good, with the relationship between the Jia family and Lu Kang in Wancheng, I am afraid that the position of the head of Chaohu will not be guaranteed."

"Ju, actually ......" Zheng Lianzhong was taken aback,

Zheng Bao's voice became a little colder: "Do you think this Changhe Town should be damned?" ”

"It's not just damned," Zheng Lianzhong also showed anger.

For Zheng Bao and the entire Chaoxian Zheng family, only after occupying Chaohu Lake can the foundation be erected.

If either of the two is missing, it is a fatal flaw.

Merely......

Zheng Lianzhong looked at Zheng Bao and said in a firm tone: "The head of the family, Mingjian, as a county lieutenant of Chao County, is indeed not suitable to make a move against Changhe Town."

"The county lieutenant is right," the scribe hurriedly agreed.

A strategy came to mind: "The defenders of Chaoxian County can't use it, but the water thieves can"

"Why didn't the lord send a group of water thieves to raid Changhe Town? In this way, the morale of the White Sail Water Thieves can be broken and the White Sail Water Village can be captured with minimal casualties," the scribe proposed.

Zheng Bao was a little moved, and gradually fell into thought.

Seeing the change in Zheng Bao's expression, the scribe took the opportunity to say: "If you borrow the name of the county lieutenant when you destroy the Baifan water thieves, then in addition to the lord of Chaohu, who can the history of Yangzhou be given to?" ”

"Good" Zheng Bao spat out the word heavily, as if he had made a difficult decision.

His gaze gradually sharpened, and then he raised his voice: "Gather all the heads to discuss the matter now"

"No" came from outside the door.

Dense and heavy footsteps were heard, and dozens of men rushed in.

"Meet the head of the house," the men bowed.

Looking at these people, Zheng Bao couldn't help but feel a little relieved.

They are the heritage of the Zheng clan in Chaoxian County, and they have a strong power in their hands.

"Everyone, the plan has changed, and I have to act in advance," Zheng Bao said loudly.

Dozens of men were in an uproar.

"Plans changed?"

"Dare to ask what happened to the head of the family?"

Hearing the inquiry, Zheng Bao looked at the scribe.

"Do you leaders know Changhe Town?" The scribe asked.

A man looked puzzled: "But that Jia people? ”

"Exactly," the scribe replied.

The men glanced at each other, and their puzzled expressions became a little thicker.

"Since you know that Changhe Town and the mayor of the town are from the Jia family, then you must also know the relationship between the Jia family and the Taishou in Wancheng," the scribe paused.

Then he continued: "Last night, the soldiers and horses of Changhe Town appeared in front of Taishou, and with the relationship between the two sides, Taishou must have promised the position of Chaohu Chief"

The men were shocked.

"Chaohu Chief?"

"W-How is this possible?"

"Once the head of the family loses the position of Chaohu chief, won't we be able to be water thieves forever?"

Zheng Bao sighed lightly: "Therefore, we can only act in advance"

"This battle is not only for my Chaoxian Zheng family, but also for you, and you will not live up to my expectations," Zheng Bao said with a majestic face.

The men shouted: "I want to obey the orders of the head of the house"

"Soldiers, nobles, and speed," Zheng Bao spit out these four words.

A pride rose in his heart: "Immediately fly the pigeon and pass the book, let the evil waves go straight to the white sail water thief"

"Lian Zhong," Zheng Bao shouted.

Zheng Lianzhong bowed: "In"

"Let the Chao County officials post a notice to crusade against Bai Fan, and then lead the Chao County defenders to rush to the rescue," Zheng Bao ordered.

Speaking of this, he paused slightly, and his gaze fell on the scribe: "As for Changhe Town, it will be handed over to Mr."

The scribe "No" was violent.

Zheng Bao looked around at everyone and said loudly: "Our honor and disgrace are all today"

Half an hour later, Bai Fan was dispatched to dominate Chaohu. For the Zheng family of Wuchao County, for your descendants and other future generations, establish an indestructible foundation" Zheng Bao roared.

Everyone thought of the scene after occupying Chaohu Lake, almost crazy.

"I wish to follow the master of the family and lay an unbreakable foundation for future generations."

A man shouted in unison, as if a flame was burning in his heart.

As the private soldiers of the Zheng family in Chaoxian County, they naturally hope that the main family will be prosperous, if the main family can occupy Chaohu Lake, then in the entire Lujiang River and even Yangzhou, they can become one of the best wealthy families.

At that time, as a private soldier among the wealthy families, he could obtain supreme glory.

It's not just about fame, it's about tangible benefits.

For example, the barren fertile land around Chaohu Lake is a great wealth once it is cultivated.
