Guan Ping laughed, looking very appreciative of Dou Mao, but turned his head and took Dou Mao's elite soldiers, generals, and nobles out of the army, and then promoted Wang Ping to lieutenant, let Wang Ping and Ding Feng each lead the army back to Tiandang Mountain, and Dingjun Mountain was stationed.

He also asked Dou Xiong to find out the families of these more than 3,000 elite soldiers, and ordered Zhang Bao to send them to Hanzhong, not only to reclaim the fields, but also as hostages.

By the way, Dou Mao, as well as the main battle faction in the Di tribe, were all sent to Hanzhong, away from Wudu. When the fish is out of water, they can't jump.

These people went to Hanzhong just to be the commander of the light pole, and they dare to say what kind of main battle?

I heard that many people were not convinced, Guan Ping just smiled and let Zhang Bao shine the blade, so they all obediently rolled up.

Convincing people with virtue is a way, and convincing people with a sword is also a road.

Then Guan Ping took Zhang Bao to sit in the city of Xia Bian, and looked at Liu Zhang's reaction, if Liu Zhang turned his face, he took the four counties of Guanghan and set up Yinping County.

Turning your face is turning a book.

You will flip.

I still won't?

.............

In fact, this place in Yizhou has always been unstable.

Since the time of Liu Yan, the resistance of the local faction in Yizhou has been continuous. At the beginning of Liu Zhang, Zhang Lu and Guan Ping occupied Hanzhong successively.

Now Guan Ping and Liu Zhang are at peace, and the Bazhong region has gained rare comfort. You must know that Zhang Luke marches south every year.

But as many people know, this comfort is temporary.

Guan Ping is a fierce tiger, since he has come to this country of abundance today, can An not occupy the magpie's nest?

Let's not talk about the constant infighting between the Dongzhou faction and the Yizhou local faction, let's say that the south is also not at peace. The four counties in the south and central are far from convinced, and the local Han people have powerful clans, and the barbarians are even more handsome and rebellious.

In fact, there are only two of Liu Zhang's territories that are really useful, Bazhong and Shuzhong.

Shuzhong is rich and has not been subjected to military revolution for many years.

Chengdu is the core of Shuzhong, and it is also an absolutely safe place. There are Fucheng, Mianzhu, and Luocheng in the north, and there are more Baishui Pass and Jiameng Pass on the Jinniu Road in the north, and the Hengduan Mountains in the west and the Longquan Mountains in the east.

This is impregnable.

Therefore, the Chengdu area is quite comfortable. Even if Guan Ping occupies Hanzhong, smart people know that the land of Bashu may be invaded by Guan Ping sooner or later, but how ordinary people should live is how they live.

On the water, fishing boats are endless. Taking advantage of the fact that spring ploughing has not yet arrived, the people on both sides of the river go into the river to fish.

Outside Chengdu, there are scholars everywhere, some of them travel together, and some of them travel with their wives and families.

There are many people, merchants, and scholars in and out of Chengdu, and they are really prosperous.

In the troubled times, whoever owns this place will have at least a few decades of national glory.

That's why Zhuge Liang said, this is really the country of abundance.

Of course, since the land of Bashu is in turmoil on all sides, although Liu Zhang is a Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle, he also knows how to arrange strong troops in Chengdu.

There are also tens of thousands of horses inside and outside Chengdu. If there is chaos on one side, it can be directly supported. The last time Zhang Wei and Yang Ang led the soldiers and horses to invade Bazhong, Zhang Ren, Wu Yi, Wu Ban and others could go to support in time, because there were soldiers.

Zhang Renxiao is brave and good at fighting, loyal, and a loyal minister, and also leads soldiers and horses, but he is not a general. At present, there are only two or three thousand people in the department.

Zhang Ren set up camp at the foot of a mountain in the Longquan Mountains, usually trained elite soldiers in the camp, and rarely entered Chengdu. As for the family members, they have their own money, but he rarely cares about it.

Zhang Ren, like Wei Yan, is by no means a good husband, but he is definitely a good general.

But unlike Wei Yan, Zhang Ren gets along well with his colleagues, is known for his boldness, and is full of righteousness. And since the rescue of Bazhong, Zhang Ren has been a little depressed.

At that time, he agreed with the old general Yan Yan, hoping that Wu Yi could forcibly break through the Micang Road, enter Hanzhong to fight Guan Ping and Zhang Lu, and then conquer it.

Zhang Rennai is a good general, so he naturally knows the importance of Hanzhong and the fleeting nature of the fighter. And then the results are known to the world, and there is no need to mention more.

Since Zhang Ren returned to Shuzhong, he has been a little depressed.

"Although Guan Ping is a child, he is brave, and even in this Shu, he can feel the sharpness of his people. If you don't get rid of it early, it will be a trouble. Zhang Ren often said such things to his henchmen in the army.

On this day, Zhang Ren left the barracks, led a few personal soldiers to choose an old tree in an open place outside the barracks, and hung an arrow target on the tree.

Zhang Ren galloped and bent the bow, but saw that every time the bowstring oscillated, an arrow hit the bull's-eye.

"The general is a true god." When Zhang Ren emptied the quiver, there was no missing arrow. A personal soldier came forward to lead the horse for Zhang Ren and praised him from the bottom of his heart.

"It's just skilled, and the carving insect skills are not worth mentioning." Zhang Ren shook his head and said.

Zhang Ren is brave, but he also knows that the courage of the horseman, the arrow of one person, plays a limited role on the battlefield, and he needs to be excited by the army in order to be invincible.

The pro-soldier patted the horse's leg and scratched his head.

At this moment, a fast horse galloped from afar, and after reaching Zhang Ren, the official immediately turned over and dismounted, and reported: "General Zhang, the lord has summoned you." ”

Like Liu Biao, Liu Zhang also has something to do in summer and spring, and Zhong Wuyan has nothing to do. Sending someone to summon Zhang Ren must be something. Therefore, Zhang Ren was awe-inspiring and asked, "Do you know what is going on?" ”

"So that the general knows, but it was Guan Ping who dispatched the elite of Yangping Guan to kill Wuwei County. Dou Xiong, the king of Di, sent someone to ask for help. The little official said.

"This is a great opportunity." Zhang Ren was not surprised when he heard this, and pointed forward and clicked twice, then turned over and rode towards Chengdu with a few personal soldiers.

When they came to the city gate, Zhang Ren met the school captain Ling Bao, and the two stopped together.

Ling Bao is a white-faced general, tall and brave, and he can be compared with Zhang Ren. The last time he rescued Bazhong, Ling Bao did not go to Shuzhong.

This time, since Zhang Ren has caught this person, he has to ventilate.

"General Ling. Guan Ping dispatched Yangping Guan's elite troops to attack Wudu, and Dou Xiong, the king of Wudu, was very strong, and the war would definitely last for a while. Now Yangpingguan is empty, and the opportunity is rare. The general should join me in persuading the lord to send troops. ”

Zhang Ren arched his hand and said, his words sincere.

"Okay." Ling Bao is also a refreshing man, and without saying a word, he shouted hello. The two then rode together to the Assassin's Mansion.

Of course, in the middle of the city, the two did not dare to drive, but rode slowly.

..............

Fasho Mansion.

Fa Zheng is a person who helps the wind, and the grandson of the famous man Fa Zhen in the sea. There was a great chaos in the north, so he entered Shu with his fellow villager Meng Da to avoid trouble.

According to the geographical division, Fa Zheng, like Wu Yi and Wu Ban brothers, all belong to Dongzhou Shi. But Fa Zheng and Wu Yi, Wu Ban and other Dongzhou scholars couldn't talk about it.

Meng Da is attached to Fazheng, the two are in a gang, and their position and treatment are the same as Fazheng.

These two people can't talk to Dongzhou Shi, but they get along with Zhang Song, who is not in Yizhou, but it is limited to Zhang Song, and the rest of the Yizhou local faction is indifferent to Fa Zheng and Meng Da, and they can't even get along.

All in all, these two people are alone, and everyone fights. Many people from Dongzhou Shi and Yizhou faction have framed Fa Zheng, resulting in Fa Zheng being useless in front of Liu Zhang, and Huai Cai has not met.

At present, Fa Zheng was named a military lieutenant by Liu Zhang because of his grandfather's Yu Ze, and he knew by listening to the name that this was an idle position, neither leading troops nor real power.

It's just that when something happens, the entourage is just talking.

Commonly known as helping.

Meng Da is even more miserable, he has no official position and is still a white ding. And Fa Zheng and Meng Dadu are already over thirty years old, and when the Han people reach this age, they can call themselves old husbands.

Fa Zheng and Meng Da both have grandchildren. Fazheng's grandson had just had a full moon not long ago, and Fazheng invited his friends to drink full moon wine together.

As a result, there are two or three big cats and small cats, which are not only not lively, but extremely desolate.

Because Fa Zheng is a helper and doesn't have to go to work often, he and Meng Da are depressed, so the two often hide in Fa Zheng's mansion and drink together.

Although Fa Zheng has no talents, his family background is very superior, the house is very large, and the layout is not bad. In recent years, Mishi liquor has become popular.

But there are not many people who can afford to drink Mi's wine, so Fa Zheng often drinks Mi's wine. Meng Da is far away, and he often comes to eat and drink.

However, although Fa Zheng often drank alcohol, he drank a lot of alcohol and never got drunk.

On this day, Fa Zheng and Meng Da hid in Fa Zheng's house to drink, obviously there were only two people, but they drank in the lobby, but because the lobby is a big place, it can make the singer dance and the musician play music.

That's right, Fa Zheng is rich enough to have his own singer and musician.

It's still cool now, but when you drink something like Mishi sake, it will warm up. Fa Zheng sat casually while enjoying the song and dance, one leg crossed, one leg straight, and his clothes slightly unbuttoned, looking like a madman.

The reason why Fazheng is not popular with others also has something to do with Fazheng's frivolous style.

Meng Da is much more serious than the Fa, sitting upright, with a good appearance and a tall figure, he is a great husband. At first glance, it really looks like a handsome man.

"Brother. Time flies. I've been waiting for more than 30 years, and I have grandchildren. How many more years can you live? But it's drinking and having fun every day, and it's really unwilling. ”

was happy, but Meng Da put down the wine bowl and sighed to Fazheng.

Fa Zheng is borrowing wine to dispel his sorrows. Watching the singing and dancing, watching the women dance and move their bodies, I feel that my troubles are gone. When he heard Meng Da's words, he was troubled.

But Meng Danai is a brother who has followed him for many years, so it is not easy to reprimand. Fa Zheng put down the wine bowl and sighed: "I also know that the years have passed. But the young people slandered me, and the lord did not believe me. And there is no one to speak to me, what can I do? ”

"Zhang Beijia is friendly with his brother, why don't you let Zhang Beijia speak well for your brother?" Meng Da took the opportunity to make a plan.

"Although Zhang Beijia can say a few beautiful words, there are too many people who have damaged me, and the lord has soft ears, but he still won't use me." Fa Zheng shook his head when he heard this.

He has thought of all the ways he can think of, and it is Meng Da's turn to give advice?

But his popularity is too poor, and Liu Zhang's ears are too soft, and it is too difficult to get reused.

"Hey." Meng Da could only sigh, and then raised the wine bowl and shook it with Fa Zheng to drink, the duo of difficult brothers and brothers, and continued to use wine to kill their sorrows.

"My lord, the lord has sent someone." Suddenly, a subordinate walked into the lobby, and the startled singers retreated, and the subordinate bowed down and said.

Fa Zheng hurriedly asked Meng Da to avoid it, ordered someone to clean up the mess, and he tidied up his clothes and invited someone to come in.

"Captain. The lord has please. "Here came a small official, who stooped down and saluted.

"Sir, do you know what the lord has called me?" Fa Zheng asked.

"But it was Guanping in the north who attacked Wudu, and the king of Di sent people to ask for help." The clerk replied.

"Good. Mr. go first. I came then. Fa Zheng said.

"No." The little official said yes, turned around and went down. And Meng Da stepped out of the small door in the rear.

"Brother. Guan Ping is very powerful and fierce. As soon as he swallowed Hanzhong, he planned to swallow Wudu County. You must know that the Di people of Wudu County are brave and good at fighting, and they are not easy to deal with. This is also an opportunity, if you can help the lord to give advice, or go out with the army, you can make meritorious contributions, and you can attract the lord to be reused. Meng Da said a little excitedly.

"I'm afraid it's nothing." Fa Zheng shook his head pessimistically, and then he asked Meng Da to go back, tidied up his appearance, drank a bowl of secret tea, and went to get rid of the wine, and then turned over and got on the horse.

However, after Fa Zheng left his mansion, he did not immediately go to the Assassin's Mansion, but went to Zhang Song's mansion on horseback.

The so-called don't drive is the main subordinate official of the assassin history.

There are three systems under the command of the state minister, namely supervision, government affairs, and military affairs.

Don't be the head of the surveillance system, and there is a superintendent of the post under his command.

In the middle of governance, he is the chief of the government affairs system, in charge of the small officials of the Cao, and has the right to be promoted, which is equivalent to the role of the county gongcao.

The military is set up with a long history, Sima, and joining the army.

The rest also have a series of subordinate officials such as Gong Cao Shuzuo, Xi Cao Shuzuo, the main book, the second door officials, the record, the martial arts, and the dianjun.

The position of Assassin Shi, the state pastor, is equivalent to the king of an independent kingdom, and his power is very large.

And among these subordinate officials, they are respected for their own driving. Thorn history travel, don't drive a single car, this is what it means not to drive.

Zhang Songnai is a Yizhou don't drive, and the Zhang family is a big family in Yizhou, and the mansion is naturally huge and prominent, much larger than the Fazheng mansion.

When Fa Zheng rode his horse to the front of Zhang Song's Mansion, Zhang Song was getting on the chariot and planning to go to the Thorn Mansion. Zhang Song naturally wants to participate in such a major event.

"Zhang Gong." Fa Zheng rode his horse to the side of Zhang Song's chariot and saluted with his fists.

Meng Da is attached to Fazheng, and Fazheng is mainly dependent on Zhang Song, so he gets along very respectfully in daily life.

"It's filial piety. Accompanying. Zhang Song also smiled when he saw Fa Zheng, and then raised his hand to let the driver drive and let Fa Zheng accompany him.

Zhang Song is over forty years old, with an ordinary appearance, a very white complexion, and a very aristocratic atmosphere. He was very talented, but he did not have a good reputation because of his frequent misconduct.

In this regard, he is similar to Fazheng, which is also the reason why the two can live together.

"What does Zhang Gong think about Guan Yangwu's attack on Wudu?" Fa Zheng asked in a low voice.

"Guan Ping is brave and aggressive, and he is currently at peace with the lord. But as soon as Zhang Lu was swallowed, he couldn't help but capture Wudu, and sooner or later he would go south to attack Bashu, which was a problem for Liu's henchmen. Zhang Song said in a low voice.

The words are resolute and very determined.

And Zhang Song has something to say, and Fa Zheng understands. Guan Ping is Liu's trouble, in other words, Zhang Song doesn't care whether Guan Ping will go south or not.

No matter who comes, they will rule Yizhou. And if you want to rule Yizhou, you have to win over the scholars. A big family like Zhang Song can't be a high-ranking official, can't be in such a prominent position, and won't be dismissed.

This is also the attitude of many Yizhou families.

They were very indifferent to Liu Yan's father and son, because Liu Yan not only came by himself, but also brought Wu Yi, Pang Xi and other Dongzhou scholars to the south.

Then many farms and houses in Yizhou were distributed to Dongzhou Shi. For this reason, the resistance of Yizhou scholars was aroused, and Liu Yan and his son led Dongzhou scholars to kill many Yizhou scholars, who were strong.

And since everyone is living in Bashu, it is natural to be related to each other.

The father and son of the Liu family killed people so indiscriminately, of course, it caused great dissatisfaction among the local scholars in Yizhou, but this dissatisfaction was not expressed.

On the contrary, Zhang Ren and Yan Yan, who are very loyal to Liu Zhang, are not from a big family. There is no gnashing hatred with Dongzhou Shi.

But they are not allowed to be Dongzhou Shi. From the last time, Wu Yi decided to stop fighting, while Zhang Ren and Yan Yan advocated entering Hanzhong.

The news had already spread.

Smart people know why.

The Dongzhou Shi gang only cares about their own interests. In order to survive, Dongzhou Shi can be the knife of the Liu family's father and son and kill the local faction of Yizhou.

And they are not willing to resist more in the case of foreign invasion.

It is because if outsiders want to rule Yizhou, they also need the power of Dongzhou scholars.

All in all, Liu Zhang's position is a furnace, and if he doesn't have the ability to sit on it, he will die.

Don't even talk about Liu Zhang, don't look at Guan Ping's courage and good fighting, if he really entered Bashu one day earlier, he might not be able to sit still.

If you don't have the ability, who is a bird?

And the reason why Fa Zheng had this inquiry was that he was moved by Meng Da, and he also wanted to give advice with the army and show his ability in front of Liu Zhang.

But now Zhang Song has hinted at it.

If there is a war between the two sides, Zhang Song will not resist. In Fazheng's opinion, Liu Zhang can't stop Guan Ping, so since this is the case, what's the point of showing his ability?

"Hey." Fa Zheng sighed and thought to himself.

It's really a troubled time before I met the master, I only learned it all my life, do I have to take it underground?

The two came to the outside of the Thorn Mansion together, and met Huang Quan, the main bookkeeper, outside the door. Huang Quan is in his thirties, with a magnificent appearance, a burly body, and a very heroic spirit.

"I've seen Zhang Beijia." Huang Quan came up to salute.

"Master Huang." Zhang Song dismounted and returned the salute. Then, Huang Quan went in first and said nothing. Huang Quan is a Brazilian and a native of Yizhou.

But the Huang Quan family has been a small official for generations, and unlike the Zhang family, the two sides can't talk together. What's more, Huang Quan is loyal, and his position is the same as that of Zhang Ren, Yan Yan and others.

Immediately, Zhang Song and Fa Zheng entered the Thorn Mansion together and came to the lobby. And before long, everyone arrived.

Zhang Song, Fa Zheng, Zhang Ren, Ling Bao, Wu Yi, Wu Ban, Huang Quan, Zheng Du, Li Yan and others, all of them are understanding people, a group of understanding people, waiting for a confused person.

Soon after, Liu Zhang came. Liu Zhang's face is round, his face is white, he has three beards, and his body is round. Although he was wearing an official uniform, it didn't bring him much majesty, and he looked very weak.

Of course, Liu Zhang is a confused person, how can he lure the wolf into the house and introduce Liu Bei when he is not confused?

Guan Ping invaded Hanzhong, because of the intervention of Wu Yi, Wu Ban, Pang Xi and others, the generals fought among themselves, so the army was stationed in Bazhong, delaying the fighters.

But Liu Zhang could still forcibly attack Micang Road later, and the army went straight into Hanzhong, but Liu Zhang still chose to wait and see.

Guan Ping often jokingly calls Liu Zhang the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, which is not unreasonable.

But even the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, who felt Guan Ping's edge again and again, also sensed Guan Ping's terrifyingness.

Before that, someone told Liu Zhang first. Guan Ping has a great appetite, and since he wants to swallow Wudu County, then it is possible to attack the subject state of Guanghan.

This is a jackal, and it will never be full. Lord, you need to make a decision early.

Liu Zhang also knew the seriousness of the matter, so this time, almost all gathered in Chengdu and outside the civil and military conference. After Liu Zhang sat down, his face was serious, and he said in a deep voice: "The Guan family's father and son are ambitious. As soon as he occupied Hanzhong, he plotted to seize Wudu. Now the king of Di, Dou Xiong, sent someone to ask for help. Yangping Pass was empty, and I decided to send troops to Yangping Pass to take back Hanzhong. What do you think? ”

"The Lord is clear-cut." Zhang Ren had already had this intention, and he was naturally overjoyed at this moment, and was the first to stand up and say. Ling Bao had promised Zhang Ren before, and naturally stood up at this moment.

Huang Quan, the chief bookkeeper, also said: "My lord, the Chengdu army is enough, the food and equipment are sufficient, and the Northern Expedition Guanping has no worries. ”

Zheng Du also arched his hand and said: "Lord, it is the best policy to take advantage of the weakness to enter the party, and it is time to send troops at this moment." ”

When the main battle faction saw Liu Zhang's rare rise, they were naturally overjoyed and excited. And Zhang Song, Fa Zheng, Wu Yi, Li Yan and others were cold bystanders.

"How do I send troops?" Liu Zhang saw that the ministers all agreed to send troops, so he put his mind at ease, and then asked humbly.

"You can take General Wu as the commander and supervise the 40,000 troops to go north. General Yang Huai of Baishui Pass was ordered to prepare early, and when the army arrived at Baishui Pass, General Yang took the vanguard to lead 5,000 elite soldiers to Yangping Pass. ”

Huang Quan planned.

Zheng Du was on the side and agreed. And Zhang Ren and Ling Bao asked for their lives to fight. So Liu Zhang agreed, and ordered Wu Yi to supervise the army, Zhang Ren, Ling Bao, Wu Ban and others as generals, and Huang Quan to join the army, leading the army of 40,000 to the north, taking the Golden Bull Road, first arriving at Baishui Pass, and then going straight to Yangping Pass.

With Liu Zhang's order, the Chengdu army gathered, and all kinds of materials began to be shipped. It was done in two days, and on the third day, Wu Yi led 40,000 elite soldiers to the north.

Also on the day when Wu Yi led his troops to set off, Fa Zheng and Meng Da played chess together in Fa Zheng's mansion, Meng Da was of course not Fa Zheng's opponent, and he threw himself in the towel.

"Brother, do you think Wu Yi can win this battle?" Meng Da was actually a little absent-minded about playing chess, and after admitting defeat, he was staring at him and asked.

"There will be no defeat." Fa Zheng answered the question.

You won't lose, but that doesn't mean you won.

Meng Da understood.

And at this moment, Fa Zheng is actually already thinking of a way out. It's scary, it's scary. The situation in Yizhou is very dire.

Liu Zhang also knew that Zhang Ren and Ling Bao were loyal ministers, but he still used Wu Yi.

Of course, Wu Yi is brave and good at fighting, and his prestige is also high, so he can control the armies.

But the problem is Wu Yi!!!

This is the reason why Fa Zheng said that he would not be defeated, and it would be difficult to say if he was replaced by Zhang Ren. Zhang Ren led the army to storm Yangping Pass, and victory or defeat was possible at that time.

And hand over the army to Wu Yi, the army will not be defeated, but there is no chance of victory.

Wu Yi, selfishness is too heavy.

He won't let himself be defeated.
