Three days passed quickly. Lin Ze did not wait for the revenge of Confucianism and Buddhism, but waited for the good news that Han Xin had broken through to the master level.
Wu Fan also rushed back to Hangu Pass on the second day to report back to Lin Ze.
Earlier, the governor of Mongolia suddenly rebelled and cut off the Northland army's food and grass, almost ruining hundreds of thousands of Northland troops.
Lin Ze was furious and said in public, "What do Jin Yiwei do for food?"
The speaker has no intention, but the listener has intention.
Wu Fan has always felt resentful about his failure to detect the changes in the Governor of Mongolia Province in time.
Earlier, because he needed to provide information to Han Xin, Wu Fan could only keep his thoughts in his heart.
Fang Hanxin led the army to win ten battles in the North, and after the anti-Qin forces in the North were wiped out, Wu Fan immediately led his men to break away from the army.
During the following period, Wu Fan personally led people to investigate all members of the Northern Jinyi Guards, and those who had committed malfeasance would be eliminated.
According to the rules set by Lin Ze, a spy who is unqualified and knows many secrets can only be considered safe if he disappears completely?
After cleaning up the Northern Jinyiwei, Wu Fan not only transferred manpower to add more people, but also added hundreds of new Jinyiwei strongholds to ensure that the news would not be missed.
After doing all this, Wu Fancai rushed back to Hangu Pass without stopping and returned to Lin Ze.
After hearing what Wu Fan had done recently, Lin Ze nodded slightly and said encouragingly: "The ancients said that one should be brave after knowing one's shame. You did a good job in this matter. I did not misjudge the person."
Wu Fan bowed and responded: "It was my subordinate who neglected his duty. Instead of blaming me, the Marquis gave my subordinates a chance to make amends. What the Marquis said made my subordinates feel ashamed."
Lin Ze waved his hand and said, "There is no need to mention this matter again. I have other important matters for you to do."
"Please give me your orders, Lord Marquis." Wu Fan responded solemnly.
Lin Ze thought for a while and said: "Strictly speaking, it is two things. The first one is to arrange for people to collect children with acceptable martial arts qualifications from various places and bring them to Guanzhong, place them properly, and wait for processing."
"The second thing is, you personally take people to go overseas, contact the Daomen branches overseas, and tell them that I want to make a long-term deal with them."
Lin Ze then explained to Wu Fan in detail how to contact overseas Taoist branches and exchange disciples for treasures from overseas Taoist schools.
"Overseas is boundless. It is your first time to go to sea, and you may not be able to figure out the direction. I will arrange for Elder Fang Xiandao to go to sea with you."
"Those elders have gone to sea countless times with my teacher, former Imperial Master Xu Fu, and they have rich experience in how to find those overseas Taoist branches."
"Due to the bad relationship between Fang Xiandao and the overseas Taoist branches, they cannot appear directly in front of the overseas Taoist branches. All communication can only be completed by you."
"What I just told you is that Dao Palace has a unique way of contacting overseas Dao sect branches. You can call yourself a disciple of Dao Palace and try to facilitate this long-term deal."
Wu Fan's face was stern, he raised his hands and saluted, "I have taken what the Marquis said to heart, and I will definitely not disappoint the Marquis."
Lin Ze waved his hand, signaling Wu Fan to leave.
After leaving the task of contacting overseas Taoist branches to Wu Fan, Lin Ze sent someone to summon Zhang Han.
Zhang Han was almost exhausted these days. He originally heard that hundreds of thousands of enemy troops were attacking Hangu Pass, and he was gearing up to fight, but he found that the enemy troops suddenly withdrew again.
Hundreds of thousands of enemy troops arrived at the gate of Hangu. They did not attack the city once, and did not even fire an arrow. They just ran away in despair.
It's as uncomfortable as if the gun can't hold it down but the person is gone.
Upon hearing Lin Ze's summons this time, Zhang Han immediately wondered if he was about to go on an expedition?
Zhang Han, who was in an excited mood, hurriedly ran to Lin Ze and asked expectantly: "I wonder what the Lord has ordered when he summons the general?"
Lin Ze chuckled and said, "Haven't you always wanted to fight? Now that the time is right, are you willing to lead the army all the way east to sweep away Wei and Han?"
Zhang Han immediately held his head high and said overjoyed: "I will obey your orders."
As soon as Zhang Han agreed, he felt something was wrong and said with a puzzled look on his face: "May I ask Lord Marquis, why only Wei and Han are immortal and the others are immortal?"
Lin Ze shook his head and said: "You don't need to worry about the rest. I have sent an order to Han Xin to lead the army south to destroy Yan and Zhao first, and then attack Liu Ji."
"Although you are the commander-in-chief of the army this time, you are still controlled by Han Xin. After you destroy Wei and Han, you can join forces with Han Xin to sweep the world together."
Zhang Han was a little dissatisfied after hearing this, but he did not dare to show it, so he had to say cautiously: "In addition to Yan, Zhao, Wei, Han and Liu Ji, there are also Qi and Chu. Can the Marquis give the last general a little more chance?"
Lin Ze shook his head again and said: "If you want to attack Qi, you must attack Liu Ji first. Liu Ji has a strong master at the master level who cannot be defeated by you."
"Similarly, Chu State also has grandmasters. Unless you break through to the grandmaster realm, this will not give you a chance, but will kill you."
Zhang Han couldn't help but feel a little sad when he heard this: "The general will know."
Zhang Han stepped out of the courtyard where Lin Ze was, and Lin Ze followed him, heading straight for Sishui County.
Since no one came to check and balance him, of course he would take this opportunity to eliminate some hidden dangers.
…
Sishui County, Pei County Peigong Mansion, after Lin Ze came here quietly, he stayed in the dark for a day and a night, but he didn't see Liu Ji's shadow.
Even Zhang Liang, Meng Hao, Xiao He and Cao Shen were nowhere to be seen.
"Liu Ji ran away," Lin Ze sighed slightly and went straight south.
Lin Ze felt very depressed after traveling thousands of miles in vain.
According to Lin Ze's character, he had to gain something, such as looting some property and killing a few people.
But Lin Ze held back. It wasn't that he had changed his ways, but that the situation was different.
Taking action rashly may directly frighten Liu Ji into a coward, making it difficult to find an opportunity to kill him.
What's more, the grandmaster massacred ordinary people in large numbers. In contemporary terms, this is undoubtedly the unauthorized use of "nuclear weapons" and will be severely condemned.
But if it was just a condemnation, Lin Ze didn't really care, but Lin Ze was worried that others would use the same trick.
If you use this trick too often, by then, except for a few grandmasters, there will probably be few people alive in the world.
…
In Kuaiji City, Lin Ze directly blocked the gate of the Chu Palace and announced that Xiang Ji had arranged a duel with him. However, after waiting for several months, he did not see anyone else, so he blocked the gate here.
How could the officials of the Chu State believe Lin Ze's "nonsense".
Some people even didn't believe that Lin Ze had the ability to block the gate of the Chu Palace.
Some people also didn't believe that Lin Ze dared to attack the capital of Chu State.
Later, they all believed it, because those who did not believe were beaten to death.
From the beginning to the end, Lin Ze only used one move. A simple strike from a divine soul warrior was not something that these sixth-level warriors could withstand.
