Chapter 1418: Zhuge Ke's Ambition
Zhao Yun's face changed greatly when he heard this, and he expected that it must be Zhuge Liang who led the troops, and he was eager to raise troops to pursue him personally, and taught several henchmen to inform Wen Shun and Deng Ai and teach them to prepare. Just when Zhao Yun ordered his troops and horses to prepare to attack. Suddenly, there were scouts to report, and in the east of the city, there were suddenly a large number of Jiaozhou aliens. Zhao Yun listened to the report, his face changed drastically, and a large number of baggage and weapons in the army were all stationed in Linhe. There is no room for error. After thinking about it, Zhao Yunsi didn't dare to act rashly, so he taught a team of soldiers to rush to Wen Shun and Deng Ai to report it, and taught them to be careful. Zhao Yun's allocation has been decided, so he taught the soldiers in the city to prepare, and the newly surrendered Wu people and Jiaozhou aliens in the city are closely monitored by the soldiers sent by each other.
Let's say, outside the east of the city, it was Zhuge Ke who led the troops to come. It turned out that after Zhuge Ke returned to Jiaozhou, he relied on his popularity among the alien clans in Jiaozhou to discuss with the major clans in Jiaozhou, wanting to secretly take Jiaozhou and divide one side. Although Zhuge Ke is young, he is extremely ambitious, if there is no chaos in Eastern Wu, Zhuge Ke is naturally willing to be a minister. However, under Soochow, the country will be difficult to protect. Zhuge Ke's ambitions were together, so he wanted to plot to make the state. Of course, Zhuge Ke had already thought of a way out, but if Sun Quan could repel Cao Cao in northern Wu, he would immediately assume the posture of a courtier and obey Sun Quan's dispatch. If not, he will defend Jiaozhou, and by virtue of the steep terrain of Jiaozhou, he will become a hero. Zhuge Ke has a good calculation. However, just after he bought most of the major clans in Jiaozhou, there was a sudden report that the Western Tang Dynasty sent troops to attack and had broken through Shi'an. Liu Chan and others fled to Linhe. When Zhuge Ke heard this, his color changed and he panicked. The patriarchs of the major clans in Jiaozhou are also deep**. At this moment, Zhuge Liang suddenly sent his subordinate Bo Yadan to meet him. According to Zhuge Liang's instructions, Yadan first explained the benefits and disadvantages to Zhuge Ke, saying that the Western Tang Dynasty was a thief, a wolf was ambitious, and he had always been cruel and tyrannical to the people of other races. If you get it to the state, the people of the state will only be slaves and slaves. Of course, Zhuge Ke didn't believe it. After all, later the king of the Western Tang Dynasty, Wenhan, greatly changed the policy, and sought integration for different races, and the Qianghu people in Xiliang and Bingzhou all obeyed the king, and there was no incident for many years. However, Yadan soon made Zhuge Ke feel uncomfortable again. Yadan told Zhuge Ke that at his age, he was also a minister of Eastern Wu, even if he was willing to join the Western Tang Dynasty, it would be difficult for Wen Han to be reused, at most, he would be allowed to keep his position. And now, he has won the popularity of the people in Jiaozhou, if he ascends to the heights, he will be supported, and he will be the king. And not long after the Western Tang Dynasty first gained Sichuan, it had to beware of the Great Wei, and would not send heavy troops to take it. But in case, as long as he guards the danger, the west ** will soon retreat. Zhuge Ke was very moved when he heard this. Yadan struck while the iron was hot, so he took out a document and handed it to Zhuge Ke. Zhuge Ke knew that it must have been written by his uncle Zhuge Liang, so he hurriedly took it and dismantled it. Sure enough, this letter was written by Zhuge Liang. Zhuge Liang first praised Zhuge Ke's talents, and then explained the pros and cons, wanting to ally with Zhuge Ke to fight against the thieves of the Western Tang Dynasty. After repelling the Western Tang thieves, they joined forces to take the land of Wunan and jointly raise the great cause. Zhuge Ke looked at it, first taught Yadan to leave, and after thinking about it all night, he finally wanted to raise a career and agreed to ally with Shu Han. Yadan saw that Zhuge Ke agreed, so he took out another document and handed it to Zhuge Ke. The letter said that Linhe City was solid, and the thieves of the Western Tang Dynasty were difficult to conquer for a while, so he taught Zhuge Ke to quickly recruit troops and horses, and hoped that Linhe would rush to help, thinking that foreign aid would immediately echo inside and outside, and it was natural to repel the thieves of the Western Tang Dynasty.
Zhuge Ke thought it was reasonable, so he complied, and after discussing with the major clans in Jiaozhou, he explained the benefits. All the aliens in Jiaozhou have heard that Wenhan, the king of the Western Tang Dynasty, hated the people of the foreign race very much, cruel and tyrannical, but because he lived in the mountains, he did not know the changes in the policy of the Western Tang Dynasty in the past few years, so he immediately responded to the peace and recruited strong men from his clan. In this regard, Zhuge Ke obtained nearly 10,000 soldiers and horses, although they are all rabble, but they are better than nothing. The situation was critical, Zhuge Ke was not lazy, and quickly led the army to Linhe to rush to help, but he didn't know that when he was still on the way, Linhe had already lost and was captured by Zhao Yun. When Zhuge Ke arrived at the Linhe realm, he found that there were scouts from the west everywhere, and it was difficult to do it carefully, so he didn't dare to act rashly, and slowly advanced. At this time, Zhuge Ke's soldiers and horses finally arrived in the south of Linhe, but Zhuge Ke had nothing to gain about the situation in Linhe.
The next day, Zhuge Ke had set up camp in the south of the city, waiting for a detailed return. Suddenly, the shouts of killing surged at the foot of the mountain, and the scouts rushed to report that Xi ** was coming to the camp to kill. Zhuge Ke's face changed drastically when he heard this, and he hurriedly went out of the tent to take a look, and saw ** killed all over the mountains. is the first general, majestic, if the sky descends to the gods, it is Zhao Yunye. Zhao Yun galloped up the mountain, restrained the horses in front of the camp, and shouted.
"I am the Western Tang Shenlong General, Zhao Zilong! Who are you waiting for, teach him to come out and answer!! ”
The alien races in Jiaozhou in the camp, hearing that it was Zhao Yun, all of them were frightened and their faces changed greatly. Zhuge Ke only felt trembling, and hurriedly rode his horse out, not daring to be presumptuous, first reporting his name, and then bowing respectfully.
"The name of the Dragon Marquis is like thunder, and he has admired the name for a long time! When I saw it today, it was a dragon among people! ”
Zhao Yun listened, raised his sword eyebrows, and shouted coldly.
"Linhe City has been captured by Benhou, you led the army here, do you want to be the enemy of Benhou and retake Linheye!?"
When Zhuge Ke heard this, his complexion changed drastically, as if he had been shocked, and he was suddenly frightened and exclaimed.
"Linhe is lost!?"
Zhao Yun frowned, his face was cold, he raised the gentian bright silver spear in his hand, and shouted loudly, like a dragon.
"Not only has Linhe been broken, but Liu Adou and the remnants of Shu were captured by the Benhou army. Just relying on you and other rabble, it is simply wishful thinking to retake Linhe!! You must withdraw quickly, otherwise Benhou will kill you without leaving a piece of armor, and the blood will flow like a river!! ”
After Zhao Yun finished drinking, the momentum burst out, and if there was a dragon behind him, all the different races in Jiaozhou were all there. Zhuge Ke's face stiffened, but he shouted angrily in his heart.
"Thieves kill talents!! How dare you deceive me!! ”
At the same time, dozens of miles away in Si'an City. Deng Ai escorted Liu Chan and his people to wait for the right way, and suddenly a team of light horsemen came from behind. Deng Ai was startled, and hurriedly drank the soldiers and horses, the team of light cavalry quickly rushed over, and the generals in the team hurriedly reported that a few days ago there was a group of soldiers and horses near Linhe who were rushing to Shi'an, suspected to be the soldiers led by Zhuge Liang. Deng Ai's complexion changed when he heard this, and he urgently taught the soldiers to be cautious.
On the other side, it's not far away. Zhuge Liang's face was solemn, his eyes seemed calm, but there were ripples from time to time, and he suddenly sighed, as if he had an indescribable sigh. It turned out that on the night after Linhe City was destroyed, Zhuge Liang and Zhang Fei arrived with troops.
Zhuge Liang looked at Linhe City from afar, full of ** flags, and the city was full of cheers, and he knew that he was a step too late, and Linhe had been lost. Zhang Fei was frightened, and he looked crazy, so he wanted to lead his troops into the city and fight for a jade stone, but he was shouted by Zhuge Liang, explaining the benefits and harms, saying that Zhang Fei was not only reckless and unscrupulous, but would only harm Liu Chan and others. Zhuge Liang suddenly became furious, and even Zhang Fei was taken aback. Zhuge Liang has always been steady and rarely angry, which shows that Zhuge Liang is also flustered now. Zhang Fei was in a hurry and hurriedly asked Zhuge Liang for advice. Zhuge Liang sighed, and said that the matter had come to this point, so he had to do his best, if the sky wanted to be extinct, he could only secretly obey the destiny of heaven. As soon as Zhuge Liang's words came out, all the soldiers were lonely, Zhang Fei was sad, thinking that Shu Han had fallen into such a situation, and the monarch of the country was actually a prisoner of others, and he cried bitterly. Zhuge Liang shook his spirit, said good words to appease, and then said his plan.
However, Zhuge Liang expected that the Tang thieves in the city would not dare to leave Liu Chan and others here in Linhe, and they would definitely send people back to Chang'an, and he would rob them on the way to save Liu Chan and others. When everyone heard this, they were all suspicious, and they all asked, if ** had been prepared, what if he had been prepared. Zhuge Liang said, fortunately, he had made an alliance with Zhuge Ke earlier, and he wanted to use it to repel the Tang thieves, but it was not useless at the moment. Based on this day, Zhuge Ke will arrive soon, and when the thieves in Linhe City see it, they will not dare to move their troops easily. In this way, there is an opportunity!
Zhang Fei was overjoyed when he heard this. Zhuge Liang quickly transferred and first taught Zhang Fei to lead the army to observe the situation here, and he led 300 soldiers to Shi'an first. Zhang Fei knew that the situation was urgent, and he obeyed Zhuge Liang's words. Zhuge Liang led the troops that night, and hurried away in the starry night, until the Shi'an realm, and immediately made secret arrangements. As for later, when Zhang Fei saw Deng Ai escorting Liu Chan and others away, he knew that he could not make the slightest mistake at this time, and he did not act without authorization. Soon, when Zhang Fei saw that there was indeed another army and horse out of the city, he looked at the path and went away, and secretly responded, and was very happy. Soon after, Zhang Fei found that Zhuge Ke's army was coming from the east, and he was overjoyed, that is, he no longer hesitated, and was anxious to rush to Shi'an. On the way, Zhang Fei encountered a scout sent by Zhao Yun, and Zhang Fei was afraid of revealing his whereabouts, so he hurriedly led troops to exterminate him. However, he was still discovered by the scouts who came later, and immediately rushed back to Zhao Yun. And Zhang Fei expected that Zhuge Ke's army would rush to Linhe, and the Tang thieves in the city would not dare to move, so they hurried in the starry night and took a shortcut to Shi'an.
This was the case before. Let's say that Zhuge Liang's allocation has been decided earlier, so he will give it a go. At this time, Deng Ai led the troops to a fork in the road, if you take the left road, the terrain is bumpy, the surrounding jungle is dense, it is easy to be ambushed, but it is a shortcut. The terrain on the right side is flat, but there are many long detours. Just when Deng Ai hesitated, suddenly there was a sound of horses' hooves in front of him, and there was a person in front of him, dressed in white like snow, with eyes full of gods, like a fairy in the sky. When Deng Ai saw it, his heart suddenly tightened, and Fa Zheng and Ma Liang behind the army saw that person, and they all showed ecstasy and shouted.
"It's the Prime Minister!! The prime minister is here!! I'll be able to escape!! ”
