Just when the hall was silent and quiet.

In another place, Zhang He's face was calm and not panicked at all.

And his eyes often stared faintly at a general in a battle robe in the crowd.

I saw that the person he was staring at was in a wide black robe, about eight feet long, with a calm complexion, prismatic and upright facial features, and a vague momentum that could erupt from time to time.

There was a moment of silence.

The previous thirty-year-old man couldn't help but take the lead in breaking the silence, and was smiling at Zhang He, and said with a straight look in his eyes: "I don't know if General Zhang has a good plan?" ”

When the words fell, the gentleman showed a playful expression, as if with a hint of mockery.

This son is Zhang Ji, the son of Zhang Ji, a wealthy family in Guanzhong.

He often competes with Zhang He, and has a deep sense of discrimination in his heart, which is not only the nobility of being a "good son" of a wealthy family, but also an unforgettable hatred!

This anger has continued since the former begging for Ma Chao.

This is also the reason why Zhang Ji has been making this decision so far.

A sarcastic word, how can everyone around them not hear it?

It's just that no one is involved in this fight, and everyone is secretly watching.

Everyone knows that this is not something they can play!

One is Cao Ying's countless military exploits and famous generals, who are valued by the King of Wei.

The other is also an upstart in Guanzhong today, and he also has an extremely deep prestige in Liangzhou.

Zhang Ji has a backstage, and most of the people present don't have this strength.

After all, the last Xiahou Nan naturally knew Zhang Ji's plan, but this battle was also very important, and there was no room for the slightest sloppiness, so he also listened quietly and waited for the following.

After waiting for a while, Zhang He's face was calm, and he said loudly: "General Xiahou, gentlemen, Zhang Mou recommended a general, and he must be able to move the Qiang people Kou Luoshuzhong." ”

"Who?"

After hearing this, Xiahou Nan couldn't help but move his eyes, and hurriedly asked.

"Guo Huai, Guo Boji!"

As soon as the words fell, Zhang He said categorically.

As soon as these words fell, the eyes of all the people present flew instantly, and their eyes were staring at the other side of the crowd, looking at Guo Huai, a general who was nearly thirty years old.

After pondering for a long time, Xiahou Nan couldn't help but smile at this time, looked at Guo Huai, and said in a low voice: "Guo Boji, how are you doing with this move?" ”

"General Zhang recommended that you go and persuade the Qiang people to raise troops in Kouluo Shuzhong."

"Boji, can you complete this mission!"

As soon as the words fell, Guo Huai below couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, then gently stretched out his head to look at Zhang He on the side, saw him smiling, and secretly nodded and believed in himself very much.

For a while, Guo Huai thought about it and couldn't help but nod his head, and his face was firm, and he arched his hand: "General Xiahou, the last general will not fail in his mission!" ”

Seeing Guo Ji's face was firm and serious, and he was extremely confident.

On the side, Zhang Ji was dissatisfied again.

"Boji, do you want to know that this time our army took the initiative to attack Shu can not be sloppy, saying that moving the Qiang people to ravage Shu is the top priority, at that time, if General Zhang leads the people to attack from the meridian, and you can't convince the Qiang people, then your sin will be great."

"Which is more important, you have to think about it......"

"Don't be a stepping stone for some people."

As soon as these words came out, Zhang Ji's words were a little clear, he was deliberately targeting Zhang He.

However, he thought that these words would scare Guo Ji and make him retreat.

It's a pity that Guo Ji bluntly bowed down and asked for orders: "General Xiahou, the last general is willing to go to Liangzhou to move the Qiang people, if you can't complete the mission, you should be willing to be dealt with by military law!" ”

From the side, Zhang He suddenly smiled when he saw this, directly ignored Zhang Ji's target, and said solemnly: "General, He's the same." ”

"Since Guo Huai is recommended by the institute, he can neither say that he can move the Qiang people, but he is also willing to accept military law."

A word settled.

The two of them asked for their lives together, and their faces were extremely resolute.

In this scene, Zhang Ji was a little dumbfounded.

What's going on?

How good is the personal relationship between the two?

This immediately puzzled him!

At this time, seeing that the two of them were so confident, the ministers were also a little skeptical, and Xiahou Nan couldn't help but say, "General Zhang, what is the situation?" ”

"Why can Guo Huai say that the Qiang people are mobilized to raise troops in Shuzhong?"

After the words fell, Zhang He and Guo Huai listened, glanced at each other, and then Guo Huai smiled, and explained with a smile: "General Xiahou, gentlemen, in fact, this is the case!" ”

"As early as a few years ago, when General Zhang and General Zhang accompanied General Xiahou into Liangzhou to crusade against Song Jian, the anti-thief force in Hejian, they had the honor to get acquainted with the leader of the Qiang people, Cheriji."

"This person is brave and strong, courageous, and has extremely strong ambitions, and has a literature and a martial arts under his command, namely Yadan and Yueji."

"At that time, Cheriji was just the patriarch of a small tribe in Xianlingqiang, but when our army swept away the rebels in Liangzhou, he contributed a lot, and afterwards General Xiahou also had the power to balance the Qiang people in Liangzhou, so he took the order of the King of Wei to crown him as the king of Xiqiang, so as to attack the rest of the Qiang people."

"And this time the king's order was announced by the last general."

"During this period, the last general also has a deep friendship with Cherrigi, and it can be seen that this person has a sense of closeness to our army, and this time the last general went to persuade him, at least eighty percent sure that he could say that he could move the Qiang people to raise troops."

Slowly, Guo Ji slowly groaned, and said slowly.

Hearing this, Xiahou Nan also calmed down for a while, thought for a moment, and then said, "Okay! ”

"Since this good fate was forged by my uncle, then we can't live up to my uncle's kindness, and it is the right way to use it."

Speaking of this, he then looked at Guo Ji tightly and shouted loudly: "Guo Huai, the general will order, without further ado, you will lead your personal guards to the Xiqiang Kingdom as soon as possible tomorrow to meet Cheriji, and say that he will raise troops in Kouluo Shuzhong, so as to cover General Zhang's surprise attack." ”

"No!"

As soon as the words fell, Guo Ji's face was solemn and he gave the order.

The matter has been decided!

Xiahou Nan also learned the lesson of the last time this time, and did not act arbitrarily, but turned his head to look at the elderly Zhong Miao on the side, and whispered: "I don't know what Mr. Zhong thinks of this move?" ”

"Hmmm......"

"Very good, but in the old opinion, this time, in addition to saying that the Qiang people Kou Luo Shuzhong and General Zhang's surprise attack on Hanzhong, General Xiahou should collect the county soldiers, and the army Chen Cang and let out a bold statement, and will take Hanzhong directly through Dasanguan."

"In this way, on the one hand, the Shu army's eyes are attracted by Qiang Hu, and on the other hand, the Shu general Wei Yan is bound to dare not relax his vigilance against Chen Cang, where we have gathered heavy troops."

"At that time, General Zhang will take the meridian road, as long as he can get out of the plank road safely, the chance of a surprise attack will increase by a few points."

In a word!

Xiahou Nan nodded again and again, and then repeated Zhong Xuan's words again loudly and told the crowd.

"Zhang Ji, what do you think of this move?"

"General Xiahou, I second!"

Although Zhang Ji was extremely unhappy when he saw that Zhang He and Guo Ji's military strategy was adopted, he was not stupid, and it could be seen from Xiahou Nan's face full of joy that he had already made a decision in his heart!

Asking yourself is just a symbolic process.

Or rather, a temptation.

As soon as these words fell, the rest of the surrounding ministers also chimed in: "We will seconded the strategy of General Zhang and Mr. Zhong." ”

"Okay."

"Since all the kings have agreed, the general will announce the military order."

"Du raided the order, with the general order, after that day to collect the county soldiers from all over the country to gather in Chang'an, just wait for Guo Boji to say that the news of the Qiang people to raise troops in Kouluo Shuzhong arrived, our army set off to attack Chencang, and then made a move to enter Shu in a big way, attracting the Shu general Wei Yan, in order to cover the surprise attack on General Zhang."

"This matter must be kept strictly confidential, if anyone unfortunately leaks it, it will not be spared!"

The last words came out, Xiahou Nan suddenly got up, the seven-foot-five-inch body stood tightly above, his eyes were extremely serious, and his palm was tightly pinched off a folded bamboo slip in his palm.

The bamboo slips also made a crisp breaking sound.

This move also made the faces of everyone present change slightly, and they were a little creepy!

……

Bashu.

Suburbs of Chengdu.

At this time, in Chang'an City, Xiahou Nan and his entourage were plotting to discuss the destruction of Shu, but Guan Ping at this moment did not know that he was still leading his brother Guan Xing, as well as Zhang Bao, Deng Ai, Zhao Tong, Zhao Guang and other young generals to hunt in the suburbs.

Now he is punished instead of Pound because of his guilt as a knight!

Now that the officials are exempt, they are no different from the common people.

In fact, no one in Chengdu regards him as a commoner.

A man with great military achievements, proficient in military affairs, and a general who commands the army, and whose father is also the pillar of the country, even if such a figure loses power for a while, how can it last for a long time?

How can dignitaries and courtiers at all levels fail to see this?

As for Guan Ping at this time, he was not in a hurry to return to Jingzhou.

After all, his mission to Shuzhong has not yet been completed!

First of all, Fa Zheng was indeed seriously ill, although he arrived immediately and let Wu Pu operate on him to prolong his life, and did not let him run out of oil.

But Fa Zheng's illness has not yet been cured, and Wu Pu still needs to stay in Shu for a while, temporarily observing every few days.

Secondly, there is the issue of armaments.

At present, Zhuge Liang and Huang Yueying are still developing the weapons and equipment he said, but they are not in a hurry.

He still needs to stay in Bashu.

However, this trip to Shuzhong, Guan Ping was still very satisfied.

That is the ministers who should have died one after another this year in the original history, but most of them were able to continue their lives due to Wu Pu's diagnosis.

Even Huang Zhong, the five tiger generals who were dying and dying, continued to live for several years.

At this moment, Guan Ping's left and right sides were Guan Xing, Zhang Bao, Deng Ai and other young generals in the rear, as well as Pang De and Liu Jia, and more than ten personal guards followed by tightly guarding both sides.

Walking on the road to the mountains and forests in the suburbs, Guan Ping's inner thoughts were surging, and his complexion changed as usual, sometimes happy, sometimes worried.

After half a ring, he couldn't help but show a wry smile, and secretly muttered: "Alas, from now on, the trajectory of history will definitely change drastically from here. ”

"In the future, I guess it will no longer be the historical trend that I am familiar with."

Thinking of this, Guan Ping couldn't help but shrug his shoulders and said secretly: "It seems that you can only rely more on yourself in the future." ”

In fact, as early as the moment when he kept Jingzhou and smashed the Wu army's conspiracy to attack Jingxiang County, the world was destined to change the direction of the world drastically.

After all, owning Jingxiang is completely different from Shu Han who lost Jingzhou!

Jingzhou is even more different.

At the very least, the national policy formulated in the strategic direction of the Northern Expedition was completely different.

After thinking about it, Guan Xing couldn't help but laugh out loud, interrupted Guan Ping's deep thinking by speaking first, and laughed loudly: "Haha! ”

"It's still the lucky brother of the Tong, and it won't be long before he will go east with the eldest brother to Jingzhou to fight and make meritorious contributions."

"I'm so envious!"

"Hahaha."

"Brother Xing, what else are you unhappy about."

"Second Uncle and Brother Ping have both experienced a hundred battles and made great achievements, and their exploits are enough to make you enjoy the rest of your life, what else do you have to worry about!"

"Haha."

For a while, with Zhang Bao's jokes on the side, the surrounding atmosphere was suddenly enlivened, and everyone smiled in unison.

Under the jokes of everyone, Guan Xing also smiled.

However, only Guan Ping noticed that there was a hint of sadness on his face.

Guan Ping knew very well that this was a helpless sadness.

It's not that he was jealous of Zhao Tong who followed him to Jingzhou to join the army and live.

Guan Xing has not been so cautious.

It's a kind of sorrow, the sorrow of being a hostage.

Guan Ping knew that he was brave and martial, but why didn't he bring him into Jingzhou to be with his parents?

And so it is.

It's not unwillingness, it's inability.

Because, Guan Yu, who holds the military and political power, although the relationship with Liu Bei is irreversible, in order to reduce the gossip among the ministers.

Guan Xing must be taken hostage and stay in Shuzhong.

It's a must!

This is the reason why Guan Xing is faintly sad at present.

After joking for a moment, Zhang Bao also said with a smile: "After Brother Ping leads the younger brother to Jingzhou, I will also ask my father to ask the lord for his life and let me join the army." ”

"Brother Xing, do you want to be together?"

Hearing this, Guan Xing wanted to agree, but when the words came to his lips, he still turned his head to look at Guan Ping and motioned for him to make a decision.

Seeing this, Guan Ping showed a faint smile, nodded slowly, Guan Xing was surprised, and then his face was overjoyed, and he said loudly: "Okay!" ”

"The so-called brothers who fight tigers, father and son soldiers go into battle."

"Father and third uncle, the lord is the same brother, and they have been on the battlefield for decades, and we are not only juniors, but we must also join the army and reproduce the scene of brothers working together."

This is the end of the story!

For a while, Zhao Guang, who was the youngest here, nearly eight feet old, with a face like a crown of jade, and about sixteen years old, couldn't help but be happy: "Brother Xing, Brother Bao, you have to take me with you when you join the army." ”

"Brother will go to Jingzhou with Brother Ping soon."

"You will be my only relative besides my father."

In a word.

From the side, Zhao Tong's face was calm, and he didn't smile, so he said to Guan Xing and Zhang Bao: "Xingguo, Fuguo, Brother Guang is still young, and he will entrust you to take care of it in the future!" ”

"Hanxing, don't worry, I will definitely treat Brother Guang as my own brother."

"You don't have to worry!"

"That's good."

"Hahaha!"

All of a sudden, a burst of hearty laughter spread across the road.

(Note: Since Zhang Bao and Zhao Tong are not recorded, Zhang Bao is apocryphal and Zhao Tong Hanxing.) ）
