At this time, it happened that Liu Zhang was in the council hall and summoned all the officials in the city to discuss how to deal with Jin Juejun this year.

Listening to Zhang Ren's words, Liu Zhang glanced at the other party expressionlessly, and then glanced at the faces of the other people in the chamber, except for a very few people, everyone else subconsciously lowered their heads, or turned their faces to avoid their own gaze.

In fact, since last year, Jin Jue's Yaobing operation outside Chengdu before the winter snow came, Liu Zhang has long been completely dead to these subordinates in front of him.

When the damned little lame man wasn't marching in, these men shouted more fiercely than anyone else, but as soon as the enemy was in earnest, they all shrank their eggs like quails.

Even if he didn't bother to admonish him many times, at this time, Liu Zhang finally understood that the vast majority of Yizhou scholars in the council hall had their own little Jiujiu in their hearts, and they may not be really loyal to themselves, and Zhang Ren in front of him may be the only person who is still loyal to him.

However, Zhang Ren himself admitted that his military ability was not enough to fight against Jin Jue's army, not to mention the man who went crazy and abandoned his territory, and suddenly appeared in Yizhou Lu Bu for some reason. If Zhang Ren's soldiers are forcibly allowed to fight, after Zhang Ren dies in battle, who else will be loyal to him, whether it is the Dongzhou soldiers or the Shu soldiers?

Even if there was no Yaobing operation last year, Jin Jue's prestige had already been widely spread in Yizhou.

Zhang Ren came back and said very clearly, the reason why the whole army was defeated in the last battle outside the new capital was because of Lu Bu's sudden appearance, which shook the hearts of the three auxiliary and Liangzhou soldiers in the Dongzhou army, but what really played a decisive role was the timing of Jin Jue's handsome soldiers converging with Wei Yan's troops in the new capital to jointly attack Zhang Ren's camp, which was really amazing.

"My lord? Lord! Thinking a lot, Liu Zhang was a little distracted, and Fei Guan, who was not far away, called him in a low voice a few times, and finally woke him up.

"Bingbo, you are responsible for the defense of the city, Zhang Ren, you are immediately responsible for sending troops out of the city, bringing as many nearby people into the city as possible, and completing this task as soon as possible before the other party enters Chengdu." Liu Zhang pondered for a while and commanded.

Liu Zhang figured out that since no one in his army dared to lead the army to engage in a field battle with the enemy, he would simply defend the city of Chengdu. Therefore, at this time, if more people can be gathered in the city, especially strong men, then, in the future, the defense force in the city will be stronger, and it will be more difficult for Jin Jue to recruit enough Shu soldiers in the local area.

What's more, in Chengdu City, more than seventy percent of the grain in the entire Yizhou is gathered, which is enough for everyone in the entire Chengdu City to eat for three years, which is not an exaggeration, but once this time is exceeded, Liu Zhangjun will become difficult. After all, in ancient times, grain was preserved for a maximum of three years, beyond which it would become rotten and inedible.

"No!" Zhang Ren and Fei Guan hurriedly stood up, bowed and saluted, agreed, and immediately turned around and hurriedly left the conference hall.

"Ladies and gentlemen, the lonely family is a little tired, if you don't have anything else, you will all disperse!" Looking at the eyes of these people around him who were still dodging, Liu Zhang's chest felt a dull pain, he felt very upset, so he commanded.

At this time, who dares to say more?

For Jin Jue to dare to choose this time, this time to send troops to Chengdu City, which not only exceeded everyone's expectations, but also destroyed the original plan of everyone in the city.

After the meeting ended, the father and son of the Wang family returned to their mansions, and Wang Lei asked impatiently: "Father, if we give up outside the city like this, then all the harvests in each mansion this year will be lost." There are so many soldiers in Chengdu City, even if no one dares to confront them directly, but Father, you can completely speak and let Zhang Renna set up a large camp outside the city and deal with Jin Jue's army.

Judging from the current situation, we Yizhou scholars must not let the other party surround the city so easily! ”

"Alas......! Tired, what can you think of, even if the lord can't think of it, but what about other people? You didn't see that the Zhang family advocated Su Fang in the council hall, and when he heard the news that Jin Jue suddenly entered the army at this time, his face immediately turned pale. When it comes to the consequences of shrinking in the city and fighting negatively, the losses of the Zhang family, an old Shu County family, are much greater than all the other families in Chengdu.

However, do you know why Zhang Su never even opened his mouth from beginning to end? After listening to his son's inquiry, Wang Shang shook his head in disappointment, sighed, mentioned the situation in the meeting just now, and finally asked rhetorically.

"My son doesn't know?" Wang Ti pondered for a while, but he couldn't figure it out, so he shook his head and replied.

"Because, I'm afraid that Zhang Song, who has never shown up since he was demoted, is the only person in Chengdu who guessed Jin Jue's movements. However, tired, you have to understand that it is one thing to guess, but how to block the opponent's attack is another. If it is Fang Cai, if I put forward your suggestion, there is a high probability that the lord will hand over the errand directly to me, and he will continue to let Fei Guan and Zhang Ren stay in the city and help him defend the city.

At that time, tired, what do you say you should do as a father? Having said that, the matter of fighting with Jin Jue's army outside the city has become my task. Like now, if you don't say it, everyone can still stay in Chengdu and keep warm together. From the current point of view, the lord's decision this time is the most correct. I don't believe that no matter how good that kid is in battle, how long can he besiege Chengdu City when the army is insufficient. After Wang Shang explained, in the end, he speculated with confidence.

After listening to his father's explanation, Wang Ti did not ask any other questions. He also knew very well in his heart that his father was the Taishou of Shu County, and it would be reasonable for Liu Zhang to hand over the task of going out of the city to Wang Shang.

The reason why he didn't do this was not because Liu Zhang was soft-hearted, or because he was afraid of the Wang family, but just because Liu Zhang didn't want to give the troops in Chengdu to Jin Juejun as a prisoner.

Wang Shang's ability to govern is good, and correspondingly, the talents he recommended to Liu Zhang in the past are all Confucian students with some governing ability. As for those with outstanding military ability, there is really no one in Wang Shang's family who can handle it.
