The third day of the capture of Fangling County.

Shangyong City.

The county government mansion.

In the backyard, a middle-aged man sat cross-legged, his hands spread in front of the desk, his eyes were lifelike, looking at the book in his hand, after half a ring, he raised his head, looked at a scribe beside him, and asked in a low voice: "Sure enough, Master Li, Zhang Yu really can't be saved?" ”

"Lord County, now that Lord Shijun has a lot of trust in you, you must not destroy your future!"

Li Xu, the chief secretary of the Shangyong County Ya, shook his head when he heard this: "Now that Lei Mo has been killed, Zhang Yu is also being pursued, he will definitely not be able to take it out, Zhang Xiu's family has been wiped out, and then Master Shijun will definitely sweep away Zhang Xiu's influence in the Heavenly Master Dao back then!" ”

"And although Lord Xianzun has great merit, but after all, he followed Zhang Xiu and rebelled out of the Heavenly Master Dao, and he will be suspicious of Lord Shijun, if Lord Xianzun insists on saving Zhang Yu at this time, it will undoubtedly give Lord Shijun a good reason to do something to you!"

"Hey!"

The middle-aged man sighed indifferently, and said faintly: "Although I have always been loyal to the Heavenly Master, but after all, I can't bear it, I let him Zhang Yu live, but he is still unwilling, and he joined Reimer to raise troops, I have expected that he will be defeated, I am afraid that now I know that he is in danger, and I am also powerless, I can't keep his bloodline, I am really ashamed of Lord Zhang Xiu!" ”

This middle-aged man is Shangyong County Order, named Zhang Suo, the word Hongan, he is not only a disciple of the Wudoumi Sect, but also a disciple of the Heavenly Master, and he is also a collateral of the Zhang family, about forty years old, practicing martial arts before the age of twenty, and learning literature after the age of twenty, which is considered a civil and military all-rounder.

He once served Zhang Xiu, followed Zhang Xiu to establish the Wudoumi Sect in Hanzhong, and was quite worthy of Zhang Xiu, so that Zhang Xiu sent him to Shangyong to guard the east gate of Hanzhong.

But when Zhang Lu led his troops to attack Zhang Xiu, he was the first to respond.

If it weren't for the Shangyong soldiers led by him to break through Zhang Xiu's middle camp and let Zhang Lu's army drive straight in, causing Zhang Xiu to be unable to withdraw, even if Zhang Xiu was defeated, he would not end up with no bones left and his blood was cleaned.

He was originally a disciple of the Heavenly Master, and he did not regret doing it to Zhang Xiu, but after all, there was a trace of unbearable feeling in his heart, after all, he had followed Zhang Xiu for many years, and he was somewhat emotional.

"My lord, there is no need to blame yourself, you have given him a chance, if he is willing to live an ordinary life, there must be a way to live, but he is destined to go against Lord Shijun, then no matter how many times you save him, it will be useless!" Li Xu persuaded in a low voice.

"yes!"

Zhang Suo smiled bitterly: "How can there be the best of both worlds in the world, since I chose Master Shijun without hesitation, I naturally have to give up one side, I often think again, Lord Zhang Xiu is a genius, if he can assist Lord Shijun, my Heavenly Master Dao is not afraid of anyone, but yet, Lord Zhang Xiu is still a betrayed Heavenly Master Dao!" ”

Zhang Xiu has cultivated since he was a child, the Taoism is exquisite, the martial arts are peerless, and he is familiar with the four books and five classics, and he has his own hills and valleys in his chest.

It's a pity that he still betrayed the Heavenly Master Dao and set up his own door, which led to the collapse of the Heavenly Master Dao and its decline for many years, and even Zhang Lu had to rely on his mother to be favored in front of Liu Yan in order to control the power.

Zhang Lu is also a man of great talent, although he is young, but he is scheming, and he has a super forbearance power, in order to revitalize the Heavenly Master Dao, he will try his courage on his back, and once he explodes, the means are like thunder, and people have to admit that this is a figure who can revitalize the Heavenly Master Dao.

"Master Li, the spies who withdrew from Xicheng!"

After Zhang Suo pondered for a while, he said: "Zhang Yu's matter, I won't ask anymore, whether he is dead or alive, look at his life!" ”

"Yes!"

Li Xu nodded.

"Report!"

At this time, a shrill voice came in from outside.

"Come in!"

Zhang Suo frowned and snorted.

A blood-stained soldier rushed out, he held a seal in his hand, offered it with both hands, and shouted angrily: "Lord Zhang, Fangling County has been broken by a group of thieves who don't know where it came from, and the county officials, including the county lord, the county lieutenant, the county lord, and so on, were all killed, and five hundred soldiers were wiped out!" ”

"What?"

When Zhang Suo heard this, he took the case: "What nonsense are you talking about, Fangling is in the east of us, surrounded by good, the terrain is easy to attack and difficult to defend, ordinary people don't go in at all, where can there be a thief army to enter Fangling!" ”

"The words of the subordinates are true!"

The blood-stained soldier held up the seal: "This is the county commander's token at the last moment, let me carry the token to break out of the encirclement!" ”

"Fangling County Seal!"

Li Xu stepped forward and investigated, his face became ugly: "Lord County, I'm afraid this matter is true!" ”

"Damn it!"

Zhang Suo calmed down and shouted: "Li Ye, come quickly!" ”

"In!"

Outside, a big man strode in and stood by.

"You immediately lead a hundred elite soldiers, for scouts, go to Fangling County to inquire about the situation, be as careful as possible, now Fangling County has been broken by a thief army, we still don't know how many soldiers and horses the other side has?"

"Yes!"

The county lieutenant Li Ye gave up his order, turned around and left, copied a long knife, and took hundreds of elite knights to go towards Fangling angrily.

"What's your name?"

Zhang Suo looked at the soldier who reported the news.

"Chen Yong!" The scout said.

"Do you see clearly, where did these thieves come from?" Zhang Suo is very strange, it stands to reason that there should be no soldiers and horses in Hanzhong who dare to oppose them, if it is said that the Yizhou army killed from Ba County, it should not be an attack on Fangling, but a direct attack on Shangyong, the most important thing is that Shangyong has arranged five hundred elite soldiers, enough to defend this city, thousands of troops may not be able to break through, even if there are a lot of thieves hidden between the surrounding mountain streams, no one will have enough troops to capture Fangling.

"It seems to be Higashiyama!"

"Higashiyama?"

Zhang Suo raised his head and glanced at Li Xu: "I'm not mistaken, the opposite side of Dongshan should be Nanyang, right?" ”

"Exactly!"

Li Xu said: "Directly opposite Dongshan is the Nanyang region, I heard that Nanyang has recently stationed new soldiers and horses, or from the Guanzhong to kill, is it possible that they have come in!" ”

"But in that place in Dongshan, let alone marching, ordinary hunters don't dare to go, how can they penetrate the mountain range of Dongshan?"

"Unless they find the Dongshan Plank Road!" Li Xu gritted his teeth and said.

"No, it won't!"

Zhang Suo frowned, his pupils changed color: "Dongshan Plank Road, isn't that ruined, in the former Han Dynasty, Emperor Gaozu had already burned the plank roads around Hanzhong, including Dongshan Plank Road!" ”

"But legend has it that this plank road is still there!" Li Xudao.

"Damn it!"

Zhang Suo became manic, he paced back and forth, and after half a sound, he said: "This matter must be reported to Master Shijun, so that Lord Shijun can take precautions as soon as possible!" ”

He looked at the injured scout and said in a deep voice: "I will let the soldiers under my command escort you to Nanzheng, and you will personally report the matter to Lord Shijun, and you are not allowed to add oil and vinegar, and you are not allowed to hide it!" ”

"No!"

Scout Chen Yong surrendered his hand.

"Lord County, it seems that General Zhang Wei led his troops to pursue Zhang Yu, just near the west, should we send someone to spread the word to him and ask him to lead his troops to help!"

Li Xu said.

"Hmm!"

Zhang Suo nodded and said, "Compared to the trouble in Nanyang, just one Zhang Yu is no longer enough, you immediately send someone to find out Zhang Wei!" ”

"No!"

Li Xu received the order.

…………

……

A day later.

Above the lobby of the Shangyong County Ya, Li Ye bowed his head and reported the results of his investigation: "Report to the county lord, Fangling County has indeed been occupied by a force of soldiers and horses, and the banner hanging on the head of the city is embroidered with many black flowers, Jingping!" ”

"Jingping?"

Zhang Suo squinted: "Is it the Mu Clan's Jingping Army?" ”

"Black flowers, that's black mandala, this is the symbol of the Jingping army, the Mu Jingping army has fought countless battles in Runan, and the first battle of Hanoi is even more famous, I'm afraid this time it was the Mu army that came out!"

Li Xu said faintly.

Although Hanzhong did not participate in the Central Plains Campaign, the news was not cut off, and the news that the Central Plains could reach Yizhou would first reach Hanzhong, and Guanzhong was shocked and Nanyang changed hands, these news were very important to Hanzhong, and they naturally paid attention to it.

They have also heard a little about the Mu clan who leans towards the government and the opposition.

The Mu clan was defeated, and later heard that the young master of the Mu clan, Mu Longtu, led the remnants of the army and killed in Nanyang, and there was no more news.

But they didn't expect that the Mu army appeared in Hanzhong.

"It seems that this world-famous young master of the Mu family, Mu Longtu, is now eyeing our Hanzhong!" Zhang Suo asked coldly: "Check clearly, how many troops are there?" ”

"No less than three thousand!"

"Only this little force?" Zhang Suo squinted.

"That's all we're looking for at the moment!"

Li Ye arched his hand and said: "We have already fought with the other party's scouts, and we have lost a lot, so we are close to the city wall, and the troops on the city wall are clear at a glance, but the troops in the city need to inquire carefully, the city gate is closed, and it is forbidden to enter and exit, we want to inquire, and it is also very difficult!" ”

"I see!"

Zhang Suo nodded: "You go down first to gather all the troops and horses, and wait for the battle, and release the scouts out of the city for more than ten miles, beware of their sneak attacks, it is difficult to ensure that they eat Fangling, they will not stare at our Shangyong, and if we lose Fangling, we can still take it back, but Shangyong is the gate of the east of Hanzhong, once it is lost, Hanzhong is equivalent to no defense, even if Master Shijun does not punish him, I will have no shame to face the Heavenly Master Daoists!" ”

"Yes!"

Li Ye gave up his hand and turned to leave.

"Master Li, Xu Changshi, what do you think a certain family should do now?" Zhang Suo looked at the two people in the hall, one was his new blessing Li Xu, and the other was the local squire family in Shangyong, the head of the Xu family, and Xu Chai, who was ranked as the magistrate of Shangyong County.

"Lord County, for today's plan, it is to strictly guard against death, and you must not send troops!" Xu Chai said.

He only cares about the life and death of Shangyong, as for other county officials, it has nothing to do with him, he Xu is based on Shangyong, as long as Shangyong does not fall, the Xu family will be safe and sound, once Shangyong is broken by the enemy, the accumulation of the Xu family over the years will be in vain.

"Lord County, think twice about this matter, the soldiers and horses stationed in our Shangyong were originally to defend against the rebellion in the eastern part of Hanzhong, if we can't recapture Fangling, Lord County Zun will face dereliction of duty, how to face Lord Shijun!"

Li Xu arched his hand and said.

"I have 8,000 soldiers and horses, and if I want to counterattack Fangling, I still have confidence!" Zhang Suodao: "I'm afraid that their follow-up troops will be stationed in Hanzhong one after another, after all, the Mu clan once dominated the imperial court, and there are at least hundreds of thousands of main forces under their command, even if they are defeated now, I am afraid that there are still tens of thousands of soldiers and horses, once a swarm of bees comes in, our soldiers and horses will not be able to stop it at all!" ”

"So be quick!"

Li Xu arched his hand and said in a deep voice: "We have asked Lord Shijun for troops, Lord Shijun must understand the disaster of letting the Mu clan's soldiers and horses enter Hanzhong, and he will definitely lead the main army to help, but before that, we must protect every county in Hanzhong, and they must not have a chance to gain a foothold!" ”

Zhang Suo stood up, a little hesitant.

"Zhang Hongan, what's the matter with you?" At this time, a big man broke in from the outside, and he was imposing.

"Zhang Wei, can't you change your temper?"

Zhang Suo seemed to be coming, waved his hand, and asked the left and right guards to go down.

Heavenly Master Dao is surnamed Zhang, the position of Heavenly Master, passed down by blood, and generations of Heavenly Masters will find you from the folk to find a young man with outstanding roots, bring it back to cultivate, and give it the surname Zhang, Zhang Xiu is, Zhang Wei is, Zhang Suo is also, they are all Heavenly Master Taoist disciples, raised by Heavenly Master Dao since childhood.

"Get out!"

Zhang Wei sat down: "You sent someone to intercept me, is it possible that you still want to keep Zhang Yu's little bastard?" ”

"This matter has nothing to do with Zhang Yu!"

Zhang Suo shook his head: "I need your help!" ”

"What could be more important than letting Shi Jun take charge of the Five Dou Rice Sect thoroughly?" Zhang Wei said coldly: "I think you are still loyal to Zhang Xiu, Zhang Suo, you have thought clearly, Zhang Yu will die no matter what, he must die, he can only ......"

"Fangling County has been attacked!"

Zhang Suo indifferently interrupted Zhang Wei's voice and said coldly.

"What?"

Zhang Wei was shocked, and his pupils widened: "You are laughing, how is it possible?" ”

"What you think is impossible is the most likely!"

Zhang Suo inquired about a few scouts in his hand, handed the bamboo slip that had been reported into the news to Zhang Wei, and said coldly: "It's been three days, and the news is estimated to have reached Nanzheng!" ”

"Jing Pingjun?"

Zhang Wei glanced at it, and he suddenly panicked: "Is it the remnants of the Mu family?" ”

"It is very likely that after all, now the Mu clan is like a rat crossing the street, everyone shouts and beats, even ordinary thieves, they dare not hang the order of the Mu clan, and they can hang the banner of the Jingping Army, and nine out of nine are the remnants of the Mu clan?"

Zhang Cableway.

"Why did they go to Hanzhong?"

Zhang Wei calmed down.

"Think with your brain!"

"Do they want to take our Hanzhong as a place of recuperation!"

"Everyone in the world knows that the Mu family is now cornered, Nanyang is persecuted by the Yuan family, Guanzhong can't go back, Jingzhou still has Liu Biao, he can only stare at our Hanzhong, and now he has entered Hanzhong, I'm afraid it's also a normal thing!"

Zhang Wei is good at martial arts, but Zhang Suo is more talented than Zhang Wei and others, he is all-round in civil and military affairs, and he can see some situations very clearly.

"They're looking for death!"

Zhang Wei said coldly: "Not to mention that our Heavenly Master Dao has stationed heavy troops here, even the Yizhou army will not let them go, once Yizhou sends troops, they will definitely die!" ”

"I'm afraid they will only send troops to Hanzhong with the permission of Yizhou Mu!"

When Zhang Suo heard this, his eyes crossed a cold glow, he had been thinking about why the remnants of the Mu clan dared to enter Hanzhong, and now Zhang Wei reminded him of this, he suddenly figured it out, and said faintly: "At the beginning, I advised Master Shijun to win over Zhang Xiu as much as possible, but Lord Shijun didn't listen, and now I have exterminated Zhang Xiu and respected Hanzhong alone, how can I not arouse the disgust of Yizhou Liu Zhijun!" ”
