Chapter 42: The Great Fool
Viscount Red Lotus and a group of guards were not tied with ropes, and they didn't seem to have any particularly serious injuries, but they just stood still stupidly, as if they were "fixed", staring ahead with wide eyes and stupidity.
Wang Hao grinned, I'm a mother, it shouldn't be the legendary point.
Sure enough, a little thin man who didn't know how many senior brothers he was jumped up, flew in front of Honglian and the others like a big bird, waved his hands a few times in a row, and poked at Honglian and his guards.
The second senior brother explained with a smile: "My twelfth junior brother's acupoints and light skills are quite passable. ”
Wang Hao pouted, the second senior brother really dared to say it. It's just a matter of stopping the red lotus, if even a seventh-order master can only be regarded as "passable", there is nothing in this world that can't be passed.
Honglian's eyes were obviously smart, and her breathing gradually calmed down. At this moment, it was immediately clear how high the strength of these people was, and the first person who could move freely was the seventh-order master guard, and it only took three or four seconds.
His first move was to draw his sword in front of the red lotus and glared angrily at Wang Hao. Obviously, Wang Hao is in league with this group of thugs.
Yes, it's a gang.
Although Honglian couldn't move, she could still speak, and hurriedly ordered the guards: "Don't do it." ”
After another ten seconds, the remaining guards were able to move one after another, but Honglian had been able to move for more than a minute, barely trembling a few times, with a bitter face and floating legs, and turned around and walked to Wang Hao's side.
When the second senior brother saw the cart full of grain, he already knew what was going on, and bowed to the red lotus with a smile, and said, "Amitabha, the junior brothers and sisters are reckless and let the donor suffer. ”
Honglian was shocked, and hurriedly returned the salute: "It's easy to say, it's easy to say, the master is polite, your magic skills are really good!" ”
The second senior brother smiled slightly, walked to the side of the grain cart, looked at Wang Hao with inquiring eyes, and asked with a smile: "Then, this cart of grain"
Wang Hao waved his hand: "The great monk pretended to be, look at the junior disciples, and their eyes lit up." Hurry up and cook and eat, let's talk about it when we're full! ”
This group of monks is probably really hungry, Wang Hao was in the refugee room in the basement just now, and he could still see gruel, but he didn't see anything to eat in the hall guarded by the monks. But each monk had a small piece of bark tied around his waist, and if he looked closely, there were tooth marks on it.
The empty little monk didn't know why, and thought it was a sun-dried snack candied fruit or something, and pulled one off the waist of the blind fifth senior brother, chewing it deliciously.
Soon, the rice entered the pot and steamed.
Taking advantage of the monks' cooking, Wang Hao pulled the red lotus aside and asked, "Why did you kid come in person, didn't you quit the coalition army and retreat and camp?" Also, why didn't you just say it was mine? ”
Honglian smiled: "I didn't just receive a call from you just about to leave, and I don't have much to say on the phone, who knows what's going on here, I'm not at ease when others come." ”
He looked at the nunu over there and asked in a worried whisper, "Big brother, have you already made peace with them?" ”
"Peace? It's a misnomer. I've never been hostile to them. ”
Wang Hao waved his hand confidently: "Besides, peace is between two forces, you see, this group of people and me are like two forces?" ”
Honglian was a little incredulous: "Aren't they two forces? Could it be that you actually subdued them, big brother? ”
Don't look at the fact that there are less than twenty people, but these people are definitely all masters, the aristocratic coalition army has mobilized thousands of people, and there has been no progress in the siege for more than half a month, and even the other party has not killed anyone, but has lost troops and generals, so that they dare not mention the attack again in the meeting, and can only wait for the other party to consume themselves very facelessly.
If it is said that with Wang Hao's background and ability, it is not surprising that Honglian has reached any agreement with this gang, but it is completely different to be able to subdue this gang.
Just kidding, with this group of subordinates, it is more than enough for the Wang family to directly make an earl, anyway, Honglian estimates that if his subordinates of several earl uncles are pulled down on the battlefield and practice with this group of monks, they will definitely be wiped out.
And Wang Hao casually, he didn't see much fighting, so he came to the park for a walk, and in less than two hours, he subdued them? That's an exaggeration, isn't it?
Honglian Jue's self should re-evaluate the alliance relationship with Wang Hao, and it seems that he can invest more core resources in this guy in front of him. If necessary, you should even tie yourself to the same chariot as him.
Regarding Honglian's question, Wang Hao smiled faintly, noncommittal, but the expression on his face was clearly like this, looking at the eyes of the monks was no different from looking at his subordinates.
If there is anything, Wang Hao is not good to say to Honglian for the time being, at most, he can only say that he has a certain degree of confidence in persuading the martial monks to follow him, and whether he can succeed in the end is still two words. But now it is necessary to give Red Lotus a feeling that these "thugs" have been subdued by themselves.
After all, his current strength is still too weak, and the only ally, Red Lotus, must let Red Lotus have confidence in himself, otherwise this alliance is very fragile, and once the external pressure is too great, it may collapse at any time.
What's more, the alliance is in a weak position, which always makes Wang Hao feel unsteady, and the alliance with Red Lotus must be led by himself.
The later plan also needs Honglian's help, if he doesn't give him confidence, I'm afraid he won't dare to risk the world to help himself.
Honglian's emotions are very complicated now, on the one hand, she is surprised that she has accurate vision and has obtained such a powerful ally in advance, and on the other hand, she is a little jealous, thinking that it would be nice if this group of thugs were her subordinates.
He said with a little envy: "With this group of people, eldest brother, you can get at least one-third of the benefits, which is estimated to be a fief of a first-class baron, maybe the meeting will directly promote you to a viscount." ”
It doesn't matter if the title Wang Hao is a duke, even if he becomes a duke, the annual welfare salary or something has to be used as compensation to the Earl of Pinghu, who has disappeared from the political arena, but the territory is different!
"A third?" Wang Hao glared: "It took me so much effort to only make a third?" At that time, the meeting was well said, according to the number of subdued thugs, you see, all the thugs are already under my command, shouldn't I be 100 percent? ”
Of course not.
Wang Hao knows the faces of those nobles too well, he doesn't dare to go up when he wants to die, and he is more active when he shares the benefits than when he sees a fly that poops.
Honglian said a third, Wang Hao felt that once he really sat at the negotiation table to discuss the ownership of interests, those nobles and lords would probably not give him a dime, and maybe they would let the Wang family compensate them for their losses.
In the words of the nobles: Since these thugs are members of your royal family, shouldn't you compensate them for the injuries they have wounded our men?
But you can't say this to Honglian openly.
Wang Hao's purpose was to find a reason to attack the aristocratic coalition, and also made Honglian feel indignant because he had suffered unfair treatment.
You can't tell Red Lotus directly: Lao Tzu is a pure-blooded human, so I want their blood.
Sure enough, Honglian shook her head in embarrassment, and said with a wry smile: "Big brother, you have just entered this circle, and you may not know the rules of the game very well, in their opinion, you are just a little third-class baron, and it is already extremely kind and kind to be able to give you some points in the end." ”
Wang Hao pretended to be angry and sneered: "This is too unfair!" ”
"Fairness is a thing, it is originally a division of people, the aristocratic circle wants to exclude a person, and can find countless high-sounding reasons, so that you can't cry out if you die."
Honglian sighed with deep understanding, and persuaded: "Big brother, bear with it, mix in this circle, it's not that you can fight, you are strong in your own strength, and you have a backstage, as long as you can develop normally and smoothly and integrate into the circle, within three years, at least you will be an earl, and when the time comes, no one will dare to do this to you again." ”
Three years? Earl?
Wang Hao smiled secretly, little red lotus, little red lotus, you are still too tender. That's not what I want.
"Since they are unkind, don't blame me for being unjust!"
Wang Hao smoothed out his train of thought from beginning to end, and then attached it to the red lotus's ear, muttering to the red lotus in a low voice.
After Honglian listened to a few words, her face changed drastically, and the more Wang Hao said, the more ugly his face became, and then he was simply bloodless.
"Big brother, you, you're a pit brother!" Red Lotus said with a dead face: "If something goes wrong, I'll be finished!" ”
Wang Hao waved his hand and patted Honglian's shoulder heavily: "Don't worry, I never make a mistake." Besides, even if there are any accidents, it doesn't matter, Huo Shishi from the Zhenhai Hou Mansion knows, right? ”
Hearing Huo Shishi's name, Honglian nodded, and said absentmindedly: "Who doesn't know General Huo Xiao of the Zhenhai Hou Mansion, but what does it have to do with this?" Big brother, think twice, this kind of thing can be big or small, if Huo Shishi does it, that is, it is a big fart, let's do it, maybe we will lose our heads! ”
Wang Hao looked left and right, and saw that the monks were all eating with their lives, and a few red lotus guards were also standing far away, so his face was mysterious, and he whispered very quietly: "Tell you a secret, don't tell others." ”
Everyone is curious about secrets, especially a guy like Wang Hao, who is inextricably linked to the Zhenhai Hou Mansion.
"What, big brother, you say, my mouth is strict!" Red Lotus nodded, signaling understanding.
Wang Hao looked serious: "Actually, Huo Shixi is my cousin-in-chief, I have already informed him to lead people to rush here, if something really goes wrong, he will slaughter the coalition army!" ”
Wang Hao looked like he was afraid that Honglian would reveal it, and added: "My nephew is thin-skinned, don't talk nonsense everywhere." Anyway, I only told you about this matter, except for Huangfuyun and you, no one else knows! ”
"Only me and the Marquis of Zhenhai know!" Honglian was excited for a while, obediently, it felt as if she could already be compared with a big man like Zhenhai Hou.
But Honglian was still a little strange, and asked, "But, eldest brother, you are about the same age as General Huo, right?" ”
Wang Hao laughed: "I have a big generation!" ”
