Now that the two sides have settled their previous suspicions, the meeting that was originally agreed upon can continue. Since this place was too far away from the pergola used for the talks, Han Zhan and Zhang Yang sat on horseback and started the talks.

Zhang Yang is a straight person, he will say whatever comes to his mind, and he does not bend his intestines at all. He asked straight to the point: "Han Fujun, I heard that you plan to send troops to attack Qingzhou." I don't know if there is such a thing? ”

Regarding Zhang Yang's question, Han Zhan felt that there was no need to hide it, so he replied truthfully: "That's right, Ben Hou does have the intention of sending troops to Qingzhou. ”

"What about after taking Qingzhou?" After Zhang Yang heard Han Zhan's answer, the muscles on his face twitched violently, and then asked, "Is that going back to take the state, and even the party of Ben Taishou will not let go?" ”

Han Zhan was silent for a moment, and then said, "Zhang Taishou, I won't tell you anything, Ben Hou did think so. If Zhang Taishou can take the initiative to surrender, then the people can avoid the suffering of swords. If Zhang Taishou is obsessed, then we can only meet each other in arms. ”

Hearing Han Zhan say this, Zhang Yang couldn't help but smile bitterly and said: "Han Fujun, although the Shangdang soldiers are outnumbered, if the soldiers and horses from Jizhou come to attack, we will not be arrested." When the time comes, a desperate battle, even if the prince can win, it will be a crushing victory. ”

"Zhang Taishou, why bother?" Hearing Zhang Yang's words of preparing to break the net, Han Zhan said lightly: "If you are willing to submit, Ben Hou will definitely not treat you badly." Even if you want to continue to serve as the Taishou of the party, it is not impossible. ”

Han Zhan's offer made the eyes of the civil official who followed Zhang Yang brighten, and he hurriedly gently pulled the hem of Zhang Yang's clothes, signaling that he could accept such a condition. Who knew that Zhang Yang was unmoved, but continued to stiffen his neck and said: "Han Fujun, is Ben Taishou the kind of person who covets power?" If the Qing and the two states fall into your hands, and you can treat the people well, then what's the harm if you want to give up the position of the party's guard? ”

"Zhang Taishou, as the saying goes: Lu Yao knows horsepower, and he will see people's hearts over time." After Han Zhan casually said a common saying, he found out that the first to say this common saying was a person from the Song Dynasty, but he was the first to say it hundreds of years in advance. However, he would not take back what he said, so he stubbornly said: "What kind of person is Benhou, and whether he will treat the people well." In the future, Zhang Taishou will naturally know. ”

"The road knows the horsepower, and the people will see it for a long time." After Zhang Yang repeated Han Zhan's words twice, he nodded and said, "Han Fujun is really amazing, and this is very reasonable. ”

When the two were holding each other, they suddenly rushed out of the team behind Zhang Yang and rushed out of two fast horses and came towards here. Zhang Yang heard the sound of horses' hooves, instinctively turned his head to look, and found that it was the captain who rushed ahead, and the soldier beside him should have just gone through a long journey and felt a little shaky on horseback.

Su Gu rushed to Zhang Yang's side first, and shouted loudly: "Taishou, something happened, something happened!" ”

"What's wrong?" Hearing what Zheng Gu said, Zhang Yang's heart couldn't help but chuckle, and said secretly: Isn't it really something wrong with Yang Chou? He hurriedly pointed to the knight who had just arrived with his hand: "Hurry up, is there something wrong with the party?" ”

"If you return to Taishou," replied the knight respectfully, "the little one was ordered by Mr. Dong to come here from Shangdang to report to Taishou." On the second day after Taishou left Shangdang, Yang Chou suddenly launched a mutiny, detained people loyal to Taishou, and established himself as Taishou ......"

When Zhang Yang heard the knight's words, he couldn't help but tremble with anger, he pointed in the direction of the party and scolded viciously: "Yang ugly dog thief, you are so important to you, you dare to rebel." When Ben Taishou returns, he will definitely break you into pieces. ”

Han Zhan was not surprised at all by Yang Chou's rebellion. He clearly remembered that although Zhang Yang was as kind to Yang Chou, Yang Chou killed Zhang Yang as his name in order to defect to Cao Cao. Han Zhan knew very well in his heart that since he rose to power and controlled Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty and the civil and military officials of the court, he had become the public enemy of the princes. Don't look at the fact that they are not raising troops to attack for the time being, but in private, they are suppressing themselves by various means. Yang Chou's betrayal of Zhang Yang this time, Kendi was instigated by someone behind him.

Thinking of this, Han Zhan looked at Zhang Yang and asked, "Zhang Taishou, Yang Chou raised the flag to rebel, and Ben Hou is also responsible." If Ben Hou hadn't been in a hurry to ask you out to meet, he wouldn't have given Yang Chou a chance. ”

After Zhang Yang waited for Han Zhan to finish speaking, he sighed and said: "Han Fujun, Ben Taishou thought that as long as the Shangdang was in his own hands, even if tens of thousands of soldiers and horses came, it would not be easy to seize the Shangdang. Who knew that now Ben Taishou has only left Shangdang for a few days, and Shangdang has changed owners. It's fate! ”

"Zhang Taishou," Guo Jia, who had not spoken, urged the horse to take two steps forward, and said to Zhang Yang: "There are two paths in front of you now: one is to abandon the official and go away, becoming an idle cloud and wild crane without an official body; The first is to return to the army to suppress Yang Chou's rebels. Although Yang Chou has already controlled the party, Zhang Taishou has been operating here for many years, and he is somewhat old-fashioned, so there should be no problem in dealing with Yang Chou. ”

Regarding Guo Jia's statement, Zhang Yang did not agree with or oppose it. After he was silent for a long time, he spoke: "Han Fujun is right, Ben Taishou does still have thousands of soldiers and horses, hidden in other places, and is ready to take these brothers to a new place to create a foundation once the party can't hold it. ”

"At this moment, for Zhang Taishou, it has come to the moment of life and death decision, and it is time to use this army and horses." Guo Jia said in accordance with the meaning of Zhang Yang: "Is there anything more important than getting rid of Yang Chou and regaining the party?" ”

After Guo Jia finished speaking, Zhang Yang was silent. After a long time, he finally spoke: "Sir doesn't know, this army only has more than 2,000 people, and it can be used for defense. If it is used to attack a fortified city like Shangdang, it will be of no use. And now there are only a few people who follow Ben Taishou. Zhang Yang said, turned his head to look at the soldiers and horses in the distance, and signaled that this was all the soldiers and horses he could use.

Although Han Zhan knew that Yang Chou had killed Zhang Yang, he didn't know where, when, or how he killed him. At this moment, seeing Zhang Yang and Yang Chou's infighting, a thought suddenly popped up in his mind: Since the Shangdang has fallen into civil strife, can I adjust the order of the raiders and find a way to capture the Shangdang first. And use this as a base to continue to capture and annex the state. After settling the merger of states, it is not too late to wave the army east to take Qingzhou.

Guo Jia, who was on the side, guessed his intention from the ever-changing expression on Han Zhan's face, and hurriedly coughed lightly, and when Zhang Yang was not paying attention, he leaned close to Han Zhan's ear and said, "Lord, if you want to help Zhang Yang recapture the party, you must send at least more than 20,000 troops." But our soldiers and horses are far away in Yecheng and Jizhou, and the distant water can't save the near fire. ”

For such a God-given opportunity, how could Han Zhan easily let it go. He also whispered to Guo Jia: "We can lend him these 3,000 cavalry first." If he had the courage, he would immediately lead these 3,000 iron horsemen to regain the party. Since the sneak attack failed, then we can only put aside the matter of seizing Qingzhou for the time being, and first transfer troops and horses to take the party. As long as you can gain a firm foothold in the party, then it will be easy to seize the annexed state. ”

"The lord has a point." After listening to Han Zhan's thoughts, Guo Jia nodded slightly and said: "If General Mingdianwei leads three thousand iron cavalry, under the leadership of a guide who is familiar with the road, to make a long-distance attack on the Shangdang, and take advantage of Yang Chou's unstable foothold to recapture the city in one fell swoop, Yijia will still have three points of certainty." ”

After the two discussed the plan, Han Zhan glanced at Guo Jia and motioned for him to make this suggestion to Zhang Yang. Even if the other party refuses, he, the lord, can come out to the rescue, pretend to reprimand Guo Jia for a few words, and this matter will be considered in the past.

Guo Jia understood Han Zhan's hints, and then said to Zhang Yang: "Zhang Taishou, I have an idea that can help you regain the party, I don't know if you want to hear it?" ”

Without waiting for Zhang Yang to speak, the person on the side couldn't wait to say: "Mr. has something to say, but it doesn't hurt to say it." As long as I can regain the party, my family will definitely agree. ”

Guo Jia did not express his position on Zhenggu's words, and continued to look at Zhang Yang to see how he reacted. Zhang Yang saw Guo Jia staring at him intently, and understood that the other party was waiting for him to make a statement, so he nodded and said, "Mr. has any good plans, but it doesn't hurt to say it, Zhang is listening." ”

"General Dian Wei is a fierce general under the command of my lord." Guo Jia pointed at Dian Wei, who was not far away, and continued: "The three thousand iron cavalry he led has always been invincible, if my lord lends them to you. I wonder if Zhang Taishou has the confidence to regain the party? ”

Zhang Yang shook his head after hearing this, and said, "If you charge into battle, the cavalry can still be of some use." But if it is used to siege the city, the cavalry will have nothing to do. Han Fujun's good intentions, Zhang Mou understood it. ”

Guo Jia, who was on the side, guessed his intention from the ever-changing expression on Han Zhan's face, and hurriedly coughed lightly, and when Zhang Yang was not paying attention, he leaned close to Han Zhan's ear and said, "Lord, if you want to help Zhang Yang recapture the party, you must send at least more than 20,000 troops."
