After returning all the way to Guangling City, Fang Zhenhai called Gu Cheng alone and said dissatisfied: "Didn't I tell you before not to kill him? Why did you also destroy Master Lin Fu?
Now you dare to obey my orders and disobey them?"
The thing that Fang Zhenhai was most satisfied with about Gu Cheng before was that he was obedient and could do things, but who would have thought that now he dared to disobey his orders.
Gu Cheng lowered his head, cupped his hands and said: "My Lord, please forgive me. I am so cruel, but it is actually for your own sake. Now I want to destroy Zhang Xian's two masters, and I will launch a military attack on that place in the future."
Zhang Xianshi can also gain some advantages."
Fang Zhenhai frowned and said: "When did I say I would attack Zhang Xian? Although the old Taoist priest pretends to be a ghost all day long, his strength is not weak. I don't want to conflict with him yet, otherwise why should I fight with him this time?
There is so much nonsense, just send someone to call it."
Gu Cheng said in a deep voice: "King of Heaven, it's not that my subordinates are talking too much, but it seems that our rebel army has done something wrong now.
The imperial court is powerful and we are weak, so even if we use all our strength, once the imperial court sends several troops to come at the same time, can we stop it?
So what we have to do now is not to think about how to resist the imperial court, but how to develop our own power.
You need to know that before fighting against the outside world, you must first make peace with yourself inside.
Although the demonic power of Zhang Xian is not as good as that of the King of Heaven, the other party's tricks of pretending to be gods and ghosts have deceived many ignorant people and even practitioners at the bottom of the world to join him.
At the moment, he has not proclaimed himself king, but the number of people under his command is no less than that of you, the King of Heaven. When will he think of proclaiming himself king, what kind of momentum will he be able to generate?
Nanyi County only needs a king like you, the Heavenly King, and even the entire Nanjiu County is like this!
You have also seen Zhang Xian's attitude this time. He has no respect for you, and is even jealous and resentful towards you.
This time we won, forcefully forcing the other party to hand over the person, but who knows if Zhang Xian will be able to endure this?
It would be better to attack first and then suffer disaster. It is better to send troops to destroy the opponent before Zhang Xian can react, and annex Zhang Xian's forces. It can even scare the surrounding rebels and combine their forces to deal with the imperial court.
,one stone two bird!"
Gu Cheng's words made Fang Zhenhai's face look a little uncertain. He was indeed a little moved by what Gu Cheng said.
If Gu Cheng had told him this before Fang Zhenhai became the King of Chaos and annexed the entire Nanyi County, he would definitely have thought that Gu Cheng was an undercover spy sent by someone to deliberately instigate him and Zhang Xian.
But now, after becoming the Luanwu King who controls the entire Nanyi County, Fang Zhenhai has indeed expanded. Killing Zhang Xian does not seem to be an unacceptable thing for him.
Moreover, what Gu Cheng said does have some truth to it. In order to fight against foreign aggression, one must first settle down the domestic affairs. Even if one's own affairs have not been completely resolved, what can one use to fight against the imperial court?
However, Fang Zhenhai did not agree immediately. Instead, he stared at Gu Cheng and said in a deep voice: "Why are you telling me this? You should know that these things are not something you can control now."
Gu Cheng lowered his head and said in a low voice: "Because I want you, the King of Heaven, to successfully sweep the world more than anyone else!
When I was forced to leave Donglin County and all the achievements I had accumulated in Jingyesi were in vain, how could my subordinates be unwilling to do so?
Therefore, I just want that one day when you, the King of Heaven, rule the world, I can follow you, the King of Heaven, to return to Donglin County and get back everything I have lost!"
Gu Cheng's tone contained many things, including unwillingness, anger, grievance, and even ambition.
But precisely because of this, Fang Zhenhai felt even more empathetic.
If Gu Cheng just keeps saying that he is thinking about Fang Zhenhai and is eager to show his loyalty, then he will be acting suspiciously.
But now Gu Cheng doesn't hide his purpose and ambition at all, he just wants to use Fang Zhenhai to achieve his own purpose, which seems more real.
Especially Gu Cheng's words caused a certain seed in his heart to sprout.
Rule the world!
I thought back then Fang Zhenhai was just a rough bandit who could happily hold a feast even if he occupied a hilltop.
As a result, today he is able to occupy a county and command an area, so why can't he truly rule the world?
People's ambitions constantly change with the improvement of status and strength. Gu Cheng's words captured this point and went straight into Fang Zhenhai's heart, adding a bargaining chip to his ambition.
Fang Zhenhai let out a long breath and said in a deep voice: "Okay, I understand, you go back first."
Gu Cheng nodded and turned to leave, but the moment he turned his head, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
He knew that Fang Zhenhai was already moved.
Once the flame of ambition begins to burn, it is not so easy to extinguish.
Sure enough, Gu Cheng only went back to rest for one night. The next day, Fang Zhenhai convened everyone to discuss matters, and his first words made everyone stunned.
"I have decided to attack Zhang Xian's demonic path immediately. Everyone should prepare as soon as possible."
As soon as this statement came out, no one reacted, it was too sudden.
Master Yunhai also subconsciously wanted to stop it, because Fang Zhenhai had not even discussed this matter with him.
But as soon as the words came out of his mouth, Master Yunhai choked them back.
I don’t know when it started, but Fang Zhenhai became more and more difficult to listen to other people’s suggestions and became more and more self-willed.
If Fang Zhenhai discussed this matter with him, it meant that he himself could not make up his mind, but now he announced it in public, which showed that Fang Zhenhai had already made preparations and plans. If he tried to persuade Fang Zhenhai at this time, he would be afraid that
It will make Fang Zhenhai unhappy.
Master Yunhai can see these things, but Gao Jiande, who has spent the longest time with Fang Zhenhai, cannot.
Hearing this, he immediately stood up and objected: "King of Heaven, why do you suddenly want to take action against Zhang Xian? Zhang Xian has already promised to hand over the person. If we take action again, wouldn't it be a breach of trust?"
Besides, we are all rebels and rebels in the eyes of the imperial court. Although we have frictions on a daily basis, our purpose is the same, which is to push us to the imperial court.
The imperial court hasn't come yet, so we're going to start an internal fight ourselves, how can we do this?"
Gao Jiande's objection to this matter was really not mixed with interests or anything like that. He was really thinking about the Chaos Wu Army and did not want the Chaos Wu Army to develop so radically and make enemies by fighting everywhere.
Fang Zhenhai frowned slightly and said: "In order to fight against foreign aggression, we must first settle the domestic affairs. I can't even deal with Zhang Xian, so how can I deal with the imperial court?"
Besides, we are not rebels against the rebels now, but rebels! Rebels who overthrew the imperial court!
It's not okay for you to always keep your eyes on the same spot, we have already drawn a clear line with Zhang Xianna and others."
Gao Jiande said loudly: "This is nonsense! In order to fight against the outside world, we must first pacify the inside. After the internal peace is completed, how can we use the power to deal with the outside world?"
As he spoke, Gao Jiande suddenly turned his gaze to Gu Cheng and shouted angrily: "Tell me! Did you trick the King of Heaven into taking action against Zhang Xian?
Gu Cheng, I have long suspected that you are a spy sent by the imperial court!
How many things have you done since you came to serve under the King of Heaven? No one knows what consequences these things will bring!"
After returning yesterday, Fang Zhenhai did not go to see anyone except Gu Cheng. As a result, Fang Zhenhai announced today that he would take action against Zhang Xian, and Gao Jiande could not suspect anyone else.
And he really suspected that there was something wrong with Gu Cheng. Although he had not done anything to endanger his rebel army, and even did a lot of things for Fang Zhenhai and the rebel army, those things seemed to be
It was good, but Gao Jiande was a little unsure about what would happen in the future.
These things, coupled with his own intuition, made Gao Jiande instinctively suspect that something was wrong with Gu Cheng.
Gu Cheng stood up and shook his head: "Master Gao, what you said is wrong. How can I, Gu Cheng, be qualified to bewitch the King of Heaven?
Is it possible that Mr. Gao thinks that the King of Heaven is one of those fat-headed guys in the court who can be easily bewitched?"
Seeing what Gao Jiande wanted to say, Fang Zhenhai slammed the table and shouted: "That's enough!"
Staring at Gao Jiande, Fang Zhenhai said in a deep voice: "Brother, I didn't call you here today to discuss matters, but to issue orders.
I have already made a decision regarding the attack on Zhang Xian, so no one else needs to say more.
Brother, if you don't want to go, then fine, you will stay behind this time."
There was a look of extreme disappointment in Gao Jiande's eyes. Fang Zhenhai excluded him from such a big matter. It was self-evident what this meant.
After cupping his hands, Gao Jiande walked out of the hall a little lonely. Fang Zhenhai then turned his attention to the others and said in a deep voice: "Okay, now let's lay out the battle plan.
In fact, Zhang Xian's troops did not occupy many state capital cities. There were only three state capital cities that had real power to resist, and most of them were his people.
Everyone gathered with me first and went straight to Yecheng where Zhang Xian was. Ankang Hu was the vanguard and led the vanguard battalion to attack Zhang Xian with me. Master Yunhai assisted me to prevent Zhang Xian's sorcery from hurting people.
After destroying Ye City, the troops are divided into three groups. I will guard Ye City and capture Zhang Xian's elites. Fa Jian, Mengshan Taoist, and Lan Caidi. You three will each lead a battalion of elites to raid where Zhang Xian's son Zhang Sheng is.
There are not many people in Huayang Mansion, but they are all masters under Zhang Xian. Anyone who doesn't surrender will be killed!
Huang Laojiao, you lead your naval forces along the Qulan River to attack Tiangong Island in the Qulan River. This is where Zhang Xian started his career and is guarded by his confidant, the "Half-faced Real Man" Lu Zhaolan.
Gu Cheng, you also lead three battalions of soldiers and horses, follow Huang Laojiao ashore and eradicate Tiangong Island!"
