This time, Zhuge Liang sent an envoy to Jingzhou, and his main purpose was to lobby Liu Jingzhou.

Even if you can't convince him to support the soldiers, horses, money, and food, you must persuade him to relax the restrictions; At the very least, the clerks under Uncle Liu Huang recruited displaced people in Jingxiang, recruited soldiers, and searched for grain and grass, and Liu Jingzhou had better not stop him.

With this little request, Zhuge Liang felt that with his three-inch incorruptible tongue, it was no problem to persuade Liu Jingzhou.

Then, the displaced people, soldiers, and grain and grass recruited from Jingzhou all had to pass through Zhuyang Pass.

Zhuge Liang wanted to steal beams and change pillars, not for anything else, but for soldiers.

Two months later, it is inevitable to have a fight with Zhang Lu.

But what can a newly recruited recruit do in two months?

The 20,000 soldiers in Xicheng County can go out of the city and fight Zhang Lu to the death?

Therefore, the 30,000 soldiers and horses in Zhuyang Pass were remembered by Zhuge Liang.

"General Wen, this time, Liang sent an envoy to Jingzhou, ready to persuade Liu Jingzhou to allow my lord to recruit homeless people, soldiers, and buy grain and grass in Jingxiang." Waiting for Wen Ping to calm down, Zhuge arched his hand and said.

"Grain, grass and displaced people will have to pass through Zhuyang Pass when the time comes, and they will need to be taken care of by the general."

Wen hired his head, this is a gesture, but it is no problem for him.

Since he chose Uncle Liu Huang as a way out, if he can, Wen Ping doesn't mind helping a little.

Zhuge Liang continued: "There are only soldiers, but there is a problem. ”

Wen Ping was surprised and asked, "If my lord agrees, what other problems can Uncle Liu Huang have with recruiting soldiers in Jingxiang?" ”

In Wen Ping's view, Zhuge Kongming persuaded the lord Liu Jingzhou to allow Uncle Liu Huang to recruit displaced people in Jingxiang, buy grain and grass, etc., which was no problem; Even if you recruit soldiers in Jingzhou, you will agree if you want to come to the lord, right?

In this case, Uncle Liu Huang can recruit soldiers in Jingxiang, what else can be the problem?

Zhuge Liang smiled and asked: "The general thinks that my lord has captured half of Hanzhong, will Zhang Lu sit idly by?" ”

This is not the answer to the question, Wen Ping did not answer, but just shook his head.

Isn't this nonsense, Uncle Liu Huang sits on half of Hanzhong, but what he occupies is Zhang Lu's territory, can Zhang Luyan sit idly by?

Therefore, sooner or later, Zhang Lu will fight back.

This section was not considered by Wenpin before.

However, after Zhuge Liang said it, Wen Ping thought that Zhang Lu would definitely fight back.

Moreover, Zhang Lu must fight back with all his might.

Zhuge Liang bowed: "Zhang Luneng beat Liu Xichuan and didn't dare to look east, he is definitely not a wasted person." General Wen knows how many soldiers and horses my lord has, and now he has only added 20,000 new soldiers. ”

"After the autumn harvest, Zhang Lu will definitely fight back with all his might, how can these 20,000 soldiers be worthy of a big task?"

"Even if tens of thousands of recruits are recruited from Jingxiang, in a short period of time, the recruits will not be able to take on the big task."

……

The surrender of troops was originally under Zhang Lu's command.

When Zhang Lu counterattacked, these soldiers were afraid that they would not fight to the death.

Moreover, when defending the city, or fighting with the wind, the troops can barely be used. In the face of Zhang Lu's 100,000 army, once they encounter a setback, these surrendered troops are afraid that they will immediately jump back, and they will also praise it: Rectify the chaos!

Therefore, when defending the city, the troops can also be used.

When fighting with Zhang Lu, you can't use surrenders.

At least, before Zhang Lu was beaten out, the troops could not be reused.

In this way, when Zhang Lu counterattacked, Uncle Liu's main combat force could only be his own soldiers and horses, or borrowed Jingzhou soldiers.

As for the recruits?

The recruits who have just been recruited, when they go to Xicheng County, how much time will they have to practice?

Even if it is the method of military training in later generations, how can recruits go to the battlefield without half a year of training?

The troops can't be reused, but the recruits are overwhelmed, and the clerks are starting to worry a little.

It must be known that he has already regarded Uncle Liu Huang as a way out in the future. If Uncle Liu Huang couldn't gain a foothold in Hanzhong, wouldn't his investment in civil employment be wasted, and wouldn't his soldiers also die in vain?

However, looking at Zhuge Kong Mingyan's smiling appearance, Wen Ping knew that Mr. Kong Ming must have a way.

"Presumably, Sir already has a solution, right?" Wen Ping asked with a smile.

For Zhuge Kongming, Wen Ping admires it.

How many years has Uncle Liu Huang been running around?

However, as soon as Mr. Kong Ming came out of the mountain, it was only half a month, and he assisted Uncle Liu Huang to lay down half of Hanzhong. Next, as long as Zhang Lu's counterattack can be blocked, Uncle Liu Huang will sit firmly in half of Hanzhong, and it will not be a problem.

"Wolong and phoenix, you can settle the world with one day, and you really didn't blow it!"

Many times, Wen Ping will have this idea in his heart.

……

There is a solution, of course.

Zhuge Liang bowed his head and said: "Yes, the key is to steal beams and change pillars!" ”

"Stealing beams for pillars?" Wen Ping said he didn't understand.

Zhuge Liang explained: "Recruits for veterans. ”

"This time, after the envoy to Jingzhou, he will send people to recruit new soldiers in Jingzhou."

"Every time a battalion of recruits is recruited, a battalion will be sent to Hanzhong."

"When these recruits pass through Zhuyang Pass, they can be replaced by veterans under the general's command."

"It's stealing beams for pillars."

After Zhuge Liang finished speaking, Wen Ping was silent.

Uncle Liu Huang is the retreat he is prepared for writing, which is true.

However, the premise is that he can't betray his lord Liu Jingzhou.

At the beginning, he lent Uncle Liu Huang 5,000 soldiers and horses, and Wen Ping already felt sorry for his father-in-law.

If the 30,000 Jingzhou soldiers in Zhuyang Pass are "sent" out, what face will he have to see the lord Liu Jingzhou?

He is a loyal minister, and he is only preparing to retreat just in case, but not to harm the interests of his own lord!

It's just that if you don't steal the beams and change the pillars, there will be no veterans under Uncle Liu's command.

Zhang Lu is about to counterattack, Uncle Liu Huang does not have tens of thousands of veterans, how can he stop Zhang Lu's counterattack?

Once Uncle Liu Huang's army is defeated, won't his retreat from Wenzhi become a dead end?

When the time comes, I am afraid that the investment in the early stage will become a waste of the 5,000 soldiers lent out.

……

Of course, Zhuge Liang knew that when he said that he would steal the beams and change the pillars, Wen Ping must have hesitated.

It's human nature.

Who called the people to hire people to be loyal ministers?

30,000 veterans have been replaced by 30,000 new soldiers, and a little bit of leakage, how can Wen Ping deal in front of Liu Jingzhou?

Besides, the weapons and armor of 30,000 veterans can't be taken away by civil appointments, right?

In this way, once the beams are stolen and the pillars are replaced, Wen Ping must also put on 30,000 sets of weapons and armor.

Of course, with the net worth of a civil servant, it is not difficult to purchase 30,000 sets of weapons and armor.

The difficulty is that if you buy 30,000 sets of weapons and armor at once, how can you not leak the news?

However, Zhuge Liang was not worried about the rejection of Wen Pingwei.

At the beginning, Huyouwen hired a thief ship and lent 5,000 soldiers and horses; Now, it is not so easy for Wen Ping to get off the thief ship.

Sure enough, after a long silence, Wen Ping said in a low voice: "Okay, just according to what Mr. said." ”

This is what Wenpin finally figured out.
