Cao Mengde certainly knew why so many people wanted him dead!
And why so many didn't choose others, targeting him alone, trying to assassinate him!
It was really because they were helpless against Ding Ling, impenetrable and unyielding.
They could only choose the critical soft target to squeeze!
Without a doubt, in the eyes of many, compared to Ding Ling, Cao Mengde was undoubtedly that crucial soft target!
A burgeoning empire.
Seeking to rise up.
That inevitably meant moving the big cake of old powers!
How could they possibly allow Cao Mengde to do that?
Thus, the endless assassination attempts were understandable.
Cao Mengde narrowly escaped death many times, and beyond his fear was his rage; since then, he launched multiple Thunderbolt operations to sweep away batches of Conservative Parties supporting the Great Han!
