Zhong Yunhai looked at Gu Zhao in confusion, "What?"

Gu Zhao explained, "Let me ask you, have you ever considered that after you recover, you will no longer stay in Douchuan Pass, but return to your homeland?"

Zhong Yunhai twisted his neck hard and faced Gu Zhao, "Sir, it seems that you just said something, that you should stop paying attention to Nanzheng's affairs in the future, right?"

Gu Zhao nodded.

"How can that be possible!" Zhong Yunhai's voice suddenly rose, with a ferocious expression on his face, "My grandfather wanted to complete the southern expedition plan wholeheartedly, and even died under the assassination of King Li of Bei'an for this reason. How can I disobey my grandfather?"

Do you want to hide in the mainland and ignore the Southern Expedition?"

Gu Zhao sighed, looked at him with concerned eyes and said, "Yunhai, you treat me as your husband, and I don't treat you as an outsider. There are some things that no one may say to you, for fear of making you angry."

"But if I don't tell you, I will be sorry for Zhong Shuai's kindness to me, and I will be sorry for Yunhai's trust in me."

Zhong Yunhai looked straight at Gu Zhao.

Gu Zhao continued, "Zhong Shuai's current situation is not very optimistic."

Pain flashed through Zhong Yunhai's eyes. "Not too optimistic" was too euphemistic to describe him. To be precise, Zhong Kewei was already on his deathbed and could die at any time.

"Mr. Yun Tang is a great talent and extremely intelligent, but when it comes to marching and fighting, there is nothing outstanding about him. Presumably, the king will never again appoint him as the commander-in-chief to lead the troops south."

Zhong Yunhai nodded silently, sir, what he said was right.

Even he knew that the king would definitely re-select the head coach of the Southern Expedition.

"I have inquired about it. Among the 50,000 elite soldiers in Douchuan Pass, 10,000 are from other aristocratic families, 10,000 are from the royal family, 20,000 are from the Zhong family, and 10,000 are selected from various places.

"

"Of these soldiers, the Zhong family can only take away 20,000."

"And who the remaining 10,000 or 20,000 soldiers will follow is still unknown. It may be the royal family, the Yun Cong family, or even other aristocratic families hiding in the dark waiting to reap the benefits."

"But no matter who gets control of other soldiers, they will be hostile to the Zhong family."

Zhong Yunhai had never heard anyone analyze it like this.

He thought about it and found that what Gu Zhao said about the composition of the fifty thousand elite soldiers was no different from what he knew.

Then Gu Zhao's analysis of the future situation is also very correct - although Zhong Yunhai is young, the human relationships he has experienced since Zhong Kewei was stabbed and seriously injured have made him know those people who are very affectionate to him.

Those aristocratic families and royal families are not as friendly as they appear on the surface.

Not to mention that the Yun Cong family has now become mortal enemies with the Zhong family.

Once these people have the power to fight against the Zhong family, they will most likely attack them.

"Yes, they are all afraid that we will hold grudges and that we will retaliate in the future." Zhong Yunhai murmured.

After all, the Zhong family was once the most powerful family in Donghao. There have been fierce generals for generations, and they have Donghao's most elite army. If they take revenge on these families who took advantage of the situation, who can take revenge in the future?

Can you withstand it?

So the best way is to let Zhong Yuntang and him die here.

Carve up the Zhong family's soldiers.

Weaken the Zhong family's strength to the greatest extent.

This is the safest.

Zhong Yunhai clenched his fists hard, and suddenly felt as if he was standing alone in the forest at night, surrounded by tigers and wolves with malicious intentions.

Unexpectedly, when my grandfather fell, Douchuan Pass, which was originally like his backyard, suddenly turned into such a dangerous place.

Gu Zhao looked at his expression and said warmly, "So, I suggest that after you feel better, you can return to your homeland with Mr. Yun Tang and the soldiers of the Zhong family."

"Return to the big city, return to the Zhong family fiefdom, close the door and live your own life, and never pay attention to the Southern Expedition again."

"Wouldn't it be nice to wait until you grow up, marry a wife, have children, spread your wings, and enjoy prosperity and wealth in peace?"

Zhong Yunhai was still nodding his head after hearing the first sentence, but after hearing the next two sentences, he showed an unwilling look.

"Sir, do you look down on me? Do you think that even if I become an adult, I can't compare with my grandfather and become an excellent general? I can only have children at home and be a mediocre nobleman?"

Zhong Yunhai waved his fist angrily, but it pulled the wound on his stomach, and he couldn't help but scream.

Gu Zhao quickly said, "Don't move, don't move. If you have something to say, please speak slowly."

Zhong Yunhai bared his teeth. After the pain subsided, he said angrily, "Sir, I know you are doing it for my own good. You are afraid that I will be plotted by them here, so you want me to return to my hometown and the Zhong family's fiefdom."

, to save lives.”

"However, the Zhong family is a family of military commanders! It is the first family of Dahao! I cannot let the glory of the Zhong family fall into my hands!"
