Chapter 573 Liu Haizhu Goes to the Meeting Alone [1 update]

Three days later, Fenyang Prefecture.

"Is everything set up?"

Tian Bao asked Zhu Wu excitedly, and Zhu Wu nodded:

“It’s set up!
“There are five hundred archers and three thousand elite soldiers stationed on the city walls!
“There are 5,000 elite soldiers in the city ambushing in various shops, and they are impossible to see!

"There are 10,000 soldiers lying in ambush outside the city, ready to outflank them at any time!
"The only question is, Your Majesty, do you really want to use yourself as bait?"

"If I don't use myself as bait, I won't be able to catch this big fish!"

Tian Bao said ambitiously:

“But as long as we can successfully capture the corrupt official, Weisheng State will be within our grasp!
“Without the command of the dog officials, we have a chance to take back Jinning Prefecture and Zhaode Prefecture that they have captured.

"When I rebuild the State of Jin, I will call out from a high place, and the soldiers scattered among the people of Jin will gather again!

“Great things can be accomplished!”

Seeing that Zhu Wu was still very worried, Tian Bao patted his shoulder with a smile:

"Military advisor, don't worry, I still have a hundred imperial guards around me.

"These one hundred imperial guards are all my loyal warriors!

"It's not that easy for the dog officials to touch me."

Zhu Wu nodded:

"When the king points his finger to the sky as a signal, I will wave the military flag when I see it from upstairs!
"Lower the drawbridge, close the city gates, and the dog officials will be unable to escape even if they have wings!"

"it is good!"

Tian Bao grabbed Zhu Wu's hand and said proudly:

"I have a military advisor just like King Wen had Ziya, and Xuande had Zhuge Liang!"

Zhu Wu was overjoyed.

But for some reason, I still felt a little uneasy...

"Your Majesty!"

At this time, three ferocious-looking men like wild beasts came in and reported to Tian Bao:
"The dog officer is here!"

When he saw them, a hint of disgust flashed in Zhu Wu's eyes.

These three sturdy men with ferocious looks like wild beasts were originally the defenders of Taiyuan City.

After Weisheng Prefecture was captured by Liu Gao, they fled in panic and surrendered to Tian Bao.

The leader was Palace Commander Zhang Xiong, and the other two were Commander-in-Chief Xiang Zhong and Xu Yue.

These three are the easiest to kill in Tian Hu’s army!
All of his soldiers are cruel and violent!
So Zhu Wu looked down on them.

But given Tian Bao's current situation, he had no choice but to accept them...

Tian Hu not only accepted them, but also made important use of them.

As the palace commander, Zhang Xiong is no less inferior to Zhu Wu.

"Oh?"

Tian Bao asked nervously: "How many people are here?"

Zhang Xiong: “Fifteen people!”

"what?"

Tian Bao looked at Zhu Wu in surprise and asked:

"Only fifteen people came?"

Zhang Xiong: "No, there are sixteen people including the dog officer!"

"hiss--"

Tian Bao and Zhu Wu couldn't help but gasp:
Sixteen people?
What’s the difference between this and Guan Yu going to a meeting alone?
Although it sounds more extravagant for Guan Yu to go to the meeting alone, the problem is that Guan Yu is brave enough to fight against ten thousand men!

Dog officials don’t know martial arts!
Zhang Xiong added: "There is also a young lady among them..."

Are there any women?

Tian Bao and Zhu Wu were both numb.

Tian Bao couldn't help but curse:
"You dog official, you are so arrogant!"

Zhu Wu was stunned:
Didn’t you say that you were a coward and didn’t allow others to bring more men and horses?

They brought too little and you scolded them for being arrogant...

"Humph!" Tian Bao sneered:
"Since this dog official is so arrogant, don't blame me for being cruel and ruthless!
"Military Advisor, follow my signal!

"General, you will be behind me when the time comes, and follow my instructions!"

Zhu Wu, Zhang Xiong, Xiang Zhong, Xu Yue: "Yes!"

So Tian Bao took the lead, followed by Zhang Xiong, Xiang Zhong and Xu Yue, and led a hundred imperial guards out of the city.

They waited at the city gate for a while, and saw from afar a dozen riders surrounding a carriage approaching.

Tian Bao took one look and sneered:

"This dog official really dares to attend the meeting alone!"

"My king, all I need is a wink from you!
"We brothers can capture the dog official without an ambush!"

Zhang Xiong patted his breastplate with confidence:

"Don't worry, my king. I will take care of everything!"

"Ok?"

When Liu Gao and his group approached, Tian Bao was attracted by the beautiful young lady with picturesque features at first sight.

This young lady is not only beautiful as a painting, but also has a petite and exquisite figure, which makes people imagine a lot!
Tian Bao looked for a while before he suddenly realized:
"Isn't this Qiong Ying?"

Qiu Qiongying is the adopted daughter of Wu Li, who is Tian Hu's brother-in-law and a distant relative of Tian Bao.

Tian Bao recognized Qiu Qiongying and immediately thought:

“My eldest brother died at the hands of Qiu Qiongying!

"Now Qiu Qiongying is walking with the dog official!
"Could it be that my eldest brother's death was planned by the dog officials?"

Zhang Xiong didn't think too much about him, he just sneered:
"What's the point of playing tricks, you're just a bunch of rubbish!"

What he meant was that except for Qiu Qiongying, everyone else was wearing a bronze mask with a ghost face on it.

Tian Bao was so busy looking at the beauties that he was reminded by Zhang Xiong that he realized they were all wearing ghost masks.

On the city gate tower, Zhu Wu leaned over the battlement and looked down secretly. What he was thinking was actually the same as Zhang Xiong's.

There are only a dozen people in total. Who are they trying to scare by pretending to be ghosts?

Not counting the ambushes, there are a hundred imperial guards behind Tian Bao!

Zhu Wu felt that he was making a fuss out of nothing. He had prepared more than 16,000 troops for Liu Gao!

If I had known that Liu Gao only brought a dozen people, wouldn’t it be enough to arrange two hundred imperial guards for myself?

Why go to so much trouble and mobilize so many troops?

Seeing that the carriage was within ten steps, Tian Bao thought he had everything under control and shouted:

"Liu Zhizhou, wait a minute, I have something to say!"

The carriage did not stop, but only lifted the curtain. Liu Gao showed half of his face and looked at him jokingly:
"Go ahead."

Although the carriage and the dozen or so Ghost Knights were getting closer, Tian Bao was not afraid.

Behind him are three great generals: Zhang Xiong, Xiang Zhong and Xu Yue!
There are also a hundred royal guards lined up on both sides!

What is he afraid of?
So as the carriage approached, Tian Bao shouted confidently:
"How can you hide your head and show your tail, pretending to be a ghost?
"Please ask the governor's followers to take off their masks and treat us with sincerity!"

"Hahahaha!"

Liu Gao laughed loudly as he got out of the carriage and stood on the shaft. He pointed at Tian Bao with a goose feather fan in his hand and said with a smile:

“That makes sense!
"Brothers, take off your masks and show yourself!"

Following Liu Gao's order, the dozen or so ghost-masked knights around the carriage all took off their masks.

"That's right—"

Tian Bao felt that he had taken the initiative.

He asked Liu Gao's followers to take off their masks, and Liu Gao's followers took off their masks.

This is called taking the lead.

So Tian Bao was very proud.

But after the dozen Ghost Riders took off their bronze masks, Tian Bao took a closer look and couldn't help but gasp:
I'm crazy...

Put it on quickly, put it on quickly!

I beg you, please put on your masks and continue to act like a ghost!

Not only him, but also Zhang Xiong, Xiang Zhong, Xu Yue and the one hundred imperial guards behind him, and even the ambushers on the city wall couldn't help but gasp:
Good guy!
Why is it scarier when you take off the ghost mask!
