Volume Four, Volume 37, Chapter 15, Assassination
Zhang Tie heard Zhang Ping's words word for word.",
Beautify the city walls?
This kind of thing sounds a bit shocking, but in fact, Zhang Tie knew that his father could really do such a thing.
"A few days ago, I heard many business groups who came to Golden Crow City say that the city wall of Golden Crow City is too high, just like a battle fortress, and the evil spirit is too strong. I think we can add some maple vines along the base of the wall.
When the maple vines grow and climb up the city wall, with this little green, the city wall will not look so scary..." Zhang Ping looked under the city wall, and then came up with an idea.
After saying this, Zhang Ping also knew that the city wall was not an ordinary place. Many of the layouts here had military considerations, so after finishing speaking, he turned around and asked an officer in military uniform next to him, "Where are you?"
Will planting a circle of maple vines under the city wall affect the performance of the city defense equipment?"
"Maple vines can climb up to a height of about fifteen meters along the city wall, and the defense equipment at the lowest level of Jinwu Castle's city wall is more than 30 meters, and maple vines grow close to the city wall, and there is no way to hide people, so there is no way to hide people.
Planting maple vines under the city wall will have no impact!" the officer replied respectfully.
"Well, let's plant maple vines!" Zhang Ping was quite happy.
Zhang Tie listened to his father's voice in the distance, but secretly sighed in his heart.
The tone and expression of his father when he talked about planting maple vines suddenly reminded Zhang Tie of the scene when his father took him to paint the fence of his backyard in Black Flame City. Perhaps in his father's heart, he had already considered the Golden Crow City at this moment.
He regards it as his own home, so as a city lord, he always likes to take care of it himself.
The Zhang family's business is now different from what it used to be. But my dad is still the same dad.
If Dad was more thoughtful, he should have asked the officer for his opinion first. Then he would make a decision, which would reflect the authority of the city lord. But Dad did the opposite and first expressed his idea of planting maple vines.
After speaking out, it seems normal and nothing to ask the officer for his opinion, but if the officer expresses his objection, will his father listen to it or not? If he doesn't, then that's
He was stubborn and self-willed. But after hearing this, invisibly, over time, the majesty and influence of the city lord will be unknowingly compromised in the eyes of others.
Of course, his father is not a willful person. If the officer expresses his objections, Zhang Tie is sure that his father will take back his thoughts calmly and think of other ways. He will not even notice.
After reversing his two sentences, the completely different effects and problems arise.
Although this is a detail, it is the essence of being a subordinate and an official.
In fact, the most my father can do is to be a factory director or manager, and to be the lord of a city. Maybe it is the limit, but in Youzhou, there is Huaiyuan Hall to protect you, and you have your own brother to support you below.
Here we are, again on our own territory. As the city lord, my father seems to be doing a pretty good job.
I haven’t seen him for four years. My dad’s appearance hasn’t changed much. He just feels more pampered and looks good. He is surrounded by a circle of people at all times and is carefully cared for. He still has the air of a high-spirited old man.
Zhang Tie didn't even think about wishing his father to become a successful man. Seeing his father like this, Zhang Tie felt a lot more relieved.
Zhang Ping walked a short circle outside the city, inspected the situation outside the city, said a few words to a few people surrounding him, and then went back.
During this time, many people at the city gate stopped and looked curiously at these "big shots" of Golden Crow City one by one. The two teams of soldiers at the city gate were also maintaining order and keeping everything at the city gate as normal. Zhang Tie also
Looking at his father among the crowd, although he had a lot of things to say in his heart, on the surface, like everyone else, there was no other emotion shown on his face except for a bit of curiosity.
Zhang Ping and a few people around him walked towards the parking lot and talked...
At this moment, Zhang Tie suddenly felt that someone's aura suddenly surged among the onlookers, and then a murderous aura broke out.
If you are not a knight, with the super-sense of a knight's heart, it is almost impossible to detect anything wrong in the crowd.
…
"Kill..." Among the crowd at the city gate, a man dressed as an ordinary merchant suddenly pulled out a dagger from his sleeve and rushed towards Zhang Ping with lightning speed.
"Protect the city lord..."
Although the man was fast, the bodyguards around Zhang Ping were not good at it either. Almost as soon as the man jumped out, a bodyguard who was standing guard around him spotted him, and his whole body instantly jumped up towards that man.
He rushed over and intercepted the man when he was still dozens of meters away from Zhang Ping.
Just inside the city gate, two powerful bombardments from the air collided with each other, making a loud noise.
The masters fought with just one blow, and a bunch of people around them who were about to enter the city were instantly affected. Where the two people's fighting spirit collided, several innocent people were instantly blown away by the shock wave of the fighting spirit, and they were hit hard in the city.
Screams came from the wall of the doorway...
Suddenly there was a huge change, and chaos broke out at the city gate. Most of the onlookers suddenly panicked and started running around. The quality of the two teams of soldiers at the city gate also suddenly became apparent. Almost at that sound
As soon as the voice of "Protect the City Lord" sounded, the two teams of soldiers quickly built a human wall around Zhang Ping, isolating Zhang Ping from the ordinary people who started running around.
Zhang Ping's face changed slightly, but he didn't look too panicked. Instead, under the protection of the people around him, he quickened his pace and walked quickly towards the car. The officer beside him who just spoke to him walked directly towards the car.
The two men who were fighting rushed over and wanted to take down the assassin quickly.
The alarm at the city gate also sounded at the same time...
At this moment, Zhang Ping was just about to get in the car. Among the panicked crowd, an ordinary person who was closer to the car and was rushing around in the crowd as if he wanted to escape saw an ordinary person who was about to get in.
Zhang Ping, who was riding in the car, suddenly opened his mouth to Zhang Ping, and countless flowing lights flew out of his mouth, immediately covering Zhang Ping.
The speed of the flying light was very fast, almost extremely fast. Not only was it fast, but it was also extremely powerful. The two masters around Zhang Ping had already released their body-protecting fighting spirit at this time, using their own body-protecting fighting spirit.
The outer layer of Qi protected Zhang Ping, but those flying rays of light directly penetrated the protective fighting Qi, and arrived in front of Zhang Ping in an instant...
