Chapter 792: How to be at ease
The graceful music echoed in the lobby, the musicians in Zhang Lu's house were obviously very skilled, the music was twists and turns, and the music was far-reaching and long, and the singing and dancing of the women in the red dress was even more impressive, and the exquisite posture with the light and delicate movements was pleasing to the eye! Today, if you talk about singing and dancing, Beiping *** and Luoyang Closed Moon Pavilion should be the first to be recommended, the latter has been famous for decades, and the lyrics and music arrangements are all awe-inspiring, while the former is the rising star in recent years.
Zhao Yun's house has a team of dancing girls carefully created by Jin Jiu, the owner of Wanhua Building, and Liu Yi and Liu Yi let the third brother communicate with his subordinates more on weekdays, and this kind of singing and dancing is a necessary program in the banquet. As Zhao Yun, who is the assassin of Jizhou, Zhang Hu needless to say, and when it comes to the way of appreciation, the gap between him and Zilong is like the force of the two, and among the great talents under Liu Yi, I am afraid that no one can compare with it except for the ghost talent Guo Jia! In addition, Luoyang, where Zicai sits, is also the location of the Closed Moon Pavilion, and Zhang Hu often goes here to entertain his subordinates on weekdays, and he is used to seeing such a high level of singing and dancing, how can the dancing girls of ordinary families be in his eyes? This makes this even more extraordinary.
Compared with Zhang Hu and Guo Jia, although Liu Yi's appreciation level is very different, he is also quite interested in the art of singing and dancing, and there are three dancers in his Yanwang Mansion who should be above these two dancers, that is, Cai Yan, Feng Ruoxi and Autumn Moon Night, when Feng Ruoxi was famous in Kyoto, how many children of the family asked for one side but could not, in addition to piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, singing and dancing is also her forte, it can be said that the song has the sound of a hundred birds, and the dance has the posture of the heavenly devil! It is also well deserved to be second to none in ***, and Cai Yan and Qiu Yueye's dancing skills can not be seen below it, which shows that the level is high, of course, the peerless dancing of these three beauties is only appreciated by Lang Sheng.
Liu Yi appreciates the spirituality of the dancers at this time, and the dance of later generations is always a little more mundane than it, in fact, it is not just song and dance, he has a great interest in those art forms in the Chinese heritage, and even in his spare time, he has learned the method of playing the piano with Cai Yan Guo Jia and others, but everyone has their own strengths, and the talent of Lang Sheng and here is not much stronger than his archery skills, and it is better to let it go as soon as possible than to make people laugh.
In the late Han Dynasty, Cao Cao is the most versatile among the heroes, in addition to his talent is roughly recognized by the world, but also left a lot of masterpieces to later generations, the view of the sea, although the turtle is long-lived, all are expressing the ambition of the hero's heart, and Liu Yi and Cao Mengde in this life have a lot of contact, in addition to poetry and articles, Lao Cao's attainments in the field of art are by no means ordinary, is a very smart figure, if it is not for the troubled times, I am afraid that it is not Cao Zijian's turn. And Zhang Hu is the only person who can compete with Cao Cao here in Liu Yi's heart, and he is also talented and talented!
Looking at Zhang Zicai on the opposite side of the body, Zhang Lu felt quite complacent in his heart, he spent countless efforts on this team of dancers and musicians, and the repertoire and dance they were the best at staged here, if it weren't for Zhang Hu coming, others would never have such treatment, including Cui Yan before. However, at the same time, there are doubts in my heart, now Cao Cao's soldiers are pointing directly at Chengdu, and with the help of Zhang Song, Qin Mi and others, it is going quite smoothly.
When Cui Yan sent an envoy to Hanzhong that day, Guo Jia had not yet arrived at the place of Yongliang, and there was still a gap between Zhang Lu and Liu Yi in Chang'an, although it was not difficult to take it with the power of King Yan, but at this time, his energy should be in the place of Cao Cao in Yanzhou, and I am afraid that he may not be able to take care of the land of Hanzhong for a while. But as soon as Fengxiao arrived, Chang'an said that the city was opened and surrendered, and Ma Chao added Sizhou's military strength compared to Liangzhou and would also fall into the hands of Liu Yi, and Cao Cao's use of troops in Shuzhong, Zhang Lu couldn't help but think about it.
Although Liu Yi wrote a book with him in a polite tone, he also pointed out that with the current general trend of the world, if Hanzhong still wants to compete for the world, it is tantamount to wishful thinking, not to mention Liu Yi himself, even the strength of the three heroes in the south is beyond Zhang Lu's reach, and there is a faint intention to persuade him to surrender. But just as Jia Xu analyzed, Zhang Lu still had the idea of sitting on the mountain and watching the tiger fight in his heart, intending to wait until Liu Yi and Cao Cao split the victory and defeat in the Central Plains before making a decision, but now that the situation has changed, it is difficult for him to sit here.
Cao Cao's victory over Yizhou was a foregone conclusion at this time, this result was unexpected by Liu Yi but beyond Zhang Lu's expectations, in his opinion, Cao Cao at this time was too late to deal with the powerful Liu Langsheng, how could he dare to be distracted and deal with others? Even if the battle of Sizhou gave Liu Yi heavy ambitions, but once the fighter plane appeared, how could he let it go with his troops? But the reaction of the northern land also made him puzzled, could it be that the king of Yan, who had the reputation of being invincible in a hundred battles, couldn't see the emptiness of Yanzhou at this time?
This question has been lingering in Zhang Lu's mind, but it is Yan Pu who joined the army and Yang Song, the chief bookkeeper, who have been in the army, to solve the puzzle, and the two of them only made such a speculation after a period of careful observation. Cao Cao's aggressive approach to Yizhou is imperative, even if Jingzhou is in hand, his strength is difficult to compete with Liu Yi in the north, and only Yizhou can be taken into the pocket or can compete with it, but the premise is that after a period of stable development, the potential of the newly acquired territory will be transformed into real strength. And here Liu Yi can see clearly, the reason why he did not move is to finish his work in one battle, his mind is not the gain or loss of one city and one place, but the main force of the Cao army, and defeating it is the overall situation.
Yanzhou is a must-defend place for Cao Mengde, which means that he must return to the army before Liu Yi gets enough rest and recuperation, and whether Yizhou can bring huge damage to Cao's army, but only this time, the Yan army has gained the upper hand in the situation without fighting, if Liu Yi sends troops to Yanzhou at this time, regardless of his own lack of recuperation, although the possibility of taking this place is great, but its advantage is by no means as obvious as making a move in the future, and it is not the art of war.
The two cadres under his command explained, Zhang Lu thought carefully and suddenly became enlightened, and couldn't help but feel a sense of depression in his heart, this situation in Liu Yi and Cao Cao's heart is afraid that it has long been seen clearly, Cao Mengde's move is a way to win in danger, and Liu Langsheng is stable and fierce, these two people's use of troops and knowledge are by no means comparable to themselves, plus the huge gap in strength, even if the two of them really lose and hurt him, what is the benefit? After all, Hanzhong can't compete with the two males.
Once Cao Cao took Yizhou, Chang'an was in the hands of Liu Yi at this time, and he was between the two males, no matter which side must have enough strength to take Hanzhong, these two people are by no means comparable to Liu Zhang of Yizhou. Unable to fight against it, Zhang Lu naturally had to choose between the two. The pursuit of his own greatest interests is what he wants, but he also has to compare the shortcomings of the two in his heart, and from the current point of view, both military prestige and court righteousness are on Liu Yi's side, and compared to Cao Cao, King Yan has the ability to attack Hanzhong at any time, this threat is more direct, not to mention that Cao Mengde also made him suffer a big loss in the previous battle of Sizhou, if he did not move at that time, 100,000 elites would not lose today, and he should be more confident today!
After analyzing all kinds of situations, Zhang Lu is obviously more optimistic about Liu Yi between the two males, but in order to highlight his status, he is very knowledgeable about the timing of choosing what to choose, this battle between Liu Cao is inevitable, and if he wants to make a choice, he must be before the war, otherwise if Liu Yi wins his weight, it will be much lighter, and Zhang Ren and Yan Yan's retreat to the pass makes him feel that this time has come, if Han chooses to serve King Yan at this time, it will increase a huge bargaining chip for him, Liu Yi may even pose a direct threat to Cao Cao's newly acquired land of Yizhou, which will also greatly improve his status in his heart and strive for greater benefits!
The envoy came again, Zhang Lu was not mistaken, even if he had the strength to forcibly capture Hanzhong, as long as there was hope, he would not give up the possibility of getting Hanzhong without loss, but Zhang Hu's personal arrival made him a little unexpected, could it be that Liu Yi, the king of Yan, was so confident in the next big war? Even a great talent like Zhang Hu can get him out of the vital place! Of course, Zhang Hu is more welcome to come than the previous Cui Yan and Zhang Lu, who is far superior to the former in terms of talent, status and weight.
Now the biggest scruple in Zhang Lu's heart is how to ensure his status, even if he is willing to give up his land in Hanzhong to Liu Yi, he is not willing to give up easily, here is the condensation of his ten years of hard work, but once he sends people under the fence, how can he ensure his own interests? Is it really dedicated to the matter of the Five Buckets of Rice Sect? Although this is also one of the ideals in his heart, when giving up Hanzhong has always been difficult for him to accept, Liu Yi's reputation is known to the world, but his heart is also obvious in the unification of the country, can he really tolerate himself to continue to master Hanzhong? At that time, I am afraid that he must have a method that does not damage his credibility and allows himself to be served with both hands, how can he be at ease?
Zhang Lu hopes to get an answer to these thoughts in Zhang Hu, the reason why Liu Yi sent this person here must have already had a plan in his heart, how will Zhang Zicai lobby himself? At this moment, Zhang Lu was quite eager to know the answer. At this time, the song and dance in front of him were no longer in his eyes, but it was certain that if Zhang Zicai couldn't come up with a plan to make him feel at ease, then Zhang Lu would rather take the risk of watching Liu Cao's victory than give it a smile.
"Good!" At this time, the dancing queen had a wonderful end with the termination of the music, and Zhang Hu also shouted loudly. Although it is difficult to see too many details on the other party's face, Ke Zicai also knows in his heart that Yang Song's words are exactly right, and the key to a smooth trip is how to calm Zhang Gongqi's heart!
