Chapter 41: Mission
Zhao Feng came to the door of the Yongwu Hall again, and it had been seven days since he last came to the Yongwu Palace.
It was not because he was negligent in managing the assassination force.
Rather, they had made rapid progress, and had grown into a full-fledged assassination force a month earlier, so there was really no need for him to be here every day as usual.
Xiao Yunzi followed behind Zhao Feng and entered the Yongwu Hall together.
Hearing the movement, the nine squads quickly lined up and stood up, and eighty-one pairs of eyes stared at Zhao Feng.
Xiao Yunzi hadn't been here for a long time, and he almost couldn't recognize these people in front of him.
Compared to more than three months ago, almost all of them have changed drastically, who can still tell that they used to be street children with yellow muscles and thin muscles?!
The temperament exuded by these people made Xiao Yunzi inexplicably a little timid, and it was like straying into a pile of fierce beasts, which made people tremble.
Is this the assassination force cultivated by Chief Zhao...... It can be described as terrifying.
With such a team, who can't be killed?!
"Although there is no end to learning, and there is always room for improvement, you are indeed a qualified assassination force now."
Zhao Feng's eyes swept over everyone, "But whether it is qualified or not, it's not that I just say it." ”
"That's why I'm going to give you my first mission."
As soon as they heard that there was a mission, everyone was eager to try it, after all, it was a good opportunity to show what they were capable of!
Zhao Feng turned his head and motioned to Xiao Yunzi, who understood and immediately stepped forward and handed the envelope that had been prepared long ago to the captain of the nine squads.
"I have given you nine squads different assassination missions, the list of targets is in the envelope, I will give you three days, within three days, be sure to kill everyone on the list without a trace."
Zhao Feng opened his mouth and said, "But remember, you are an assassination force, and you must never reveal your true identity, so you must be clean when doing things." ”
"Although I think this is very unlikely, I still mention that once you are caught, it should be clear what the first thing to do is."
"Decide on your own."
Everyone replied in unison, seeing that they remembered it so clearly, Zhao Feng was very satisfied.
"The mission has been issued, each team can negotiate their own plan of action, I don't look at the means, only look at the results, I will come back in three days."
After saying this, Zhao Feng left with Xiao Yunzi.
Xiao Yunzi was still immersed in the shock that the assassination force was so powerful, but she had some doubts about the task assigned by Zhao Feng.
"If there's anything you want to ask, just ask."
"Mr. Zhao."
Seeing Zhao Feng speak, Xiao Yunzi simply decided to explain his incomprehension,
"The assassination force cultivated by Chief Manager Zhao is already very powerful, and even the minions can see this."
"But why didn't Manager Zhao directly let them deal with the Queen Mother and Fan Shicheng, but let them solve the wings of these two parties in the court?"
"That's a good question."
Zhao Feng said slowly, "Actually, even if there is no assassination force, if I want to kill Fan Shicheng and the Queen Mother, I can do it." ”
Hearing this, Xiao Yunzi was stunned, he knew that Zhao Feng was not a person who could say big things, and since he could say this, he must be able to do it.
I just didn't expect it...... Mr. Zhao is even more powerful than he imagined?!
"But it's a pity that the imperial court has long been divided by these two parties, except for their people, there are few other officials, if I kill the leaders of these two factions, it will definitely lead to a group of dragons without a leader."
"The wings of the two parties will definitely put themselves in danger, I think I will not let go of them who once worked for the tiger, and those whose lives are threatened can do anything."
Zhao Feng said slowly, "At that time, everyone will only care about running for their own lives, and the court will only be more chaotic than now. ”
"Therefore, what I want Your Majesty to take over is a healthy and intact court, and I will try to kill a few of their men, in addition to wanting to test the results of training, in order to get more important things."
After listening to Zhao Feng's words, Xiao Yunzi was like an initiation,
"Mr. Zhao is far-sighted, and the slave is really admired."
Zhao Feng smiled lightly, his assassination force is not something that can be used casually, this will be an important hole card.
But it is not enough to have only one hole card, even if there is such a strong team, but if you want to master a court, the most important thing is to hold the military power in your hands.
If he didn't have military power, no matter how powerful the assassination force in his hands was, it would be powerless in the face of absolute numerical suppression.
"Hou Cheng, the squire of the military department?"
Seeing Tan Zhen unfolding the envelope, the sharp-eyed Zhou Wen was a little surprised to see the first person on the list.
"I didn't expect us to kill such a big official with the first vote!"
Tan Zhen's eyes swept down the list, there were not many of their assassination targets, there were five people in total, basically some officials of the imperial court, and their official positions were big or small, but these were not what he cared about.
They didn't care who the target was, they just needed to complete the tasks assigned by Manager Zhao.
"There are five people targeted by Chief Manager Zhao, and the locations of their mansions are also written on it."
"We only have three days, so it's not too tight, but to be on the safe side, we're going to leave today."
Tan Zhen is indeed very captain-oriented, and soon drew up a preliminary battle plan.
"There are nine of us in total, except for me, who are divided into two teams to find out the movements of the assassination targets and find out their daily schedules."
"If you have the opportunity, you don't have to report it, you can just do it, and tonight, we will meet in the alleys west of the city."
"Yes."
Everyone received the order, and they quickly went to find out the information.
Although this was the first time they had left the palace since they entered the palace for almost four months, the route outside the palace was not unfamiliar to them.
After all, they have been wandering in the capital since they were children, and they are very familiar with all the corners of the capital, and they naturally know a lot about the residences of officials.
Tan Zhen simply entered the mansion of Hou Cheng, the squire of the military department, and the guards in the Hou Mansion were quite lax, and only a few guards were on guard around.
No one even noticed Tan Zhen, who had already climbed onto the roof of the Hou Mansion.
Gently removing a tile, Tan Zhen peeked at the situation in the Hou Mansion.
