After sitting down again, Wang Ping suddenly asked: "Dare to ask the general, is the next step to go to Shangyong?" ”

Jiang Wei said, "Not bad! Shangyong has nearly 10,000 soldiers, and if he gets half of his help, he will have a great grasp of going south to break the siege. ”

Wang Ping bowed and hugged his fists and said: "In this way, there will be something to report at the end." ”

Jiang Wei's gaze turned twice on Wang Ping's body, and he said in his heart: "Is this your name......

As expected, the content of Wang Ping's next report was the letter of submission he gave to Jiang Wei. He has been by Liu Feng's side for a long time, and he knows very well about Shangyong's personal connections and the distribution of troops.

"Shangyong has about 10,000 soldiers, the major general personally leads 3,000 Yizhou soldiers, Meng Da leads 4,000 Dongzhou soldiers, and Shen Tan leads 3,000 local county soldiers. The relationship between the three generals in private is not good, and each has his own plans. General Meng, in particular, is bent on preserving his strength......"

He is a decisive person, thinking that this new investment in Jiang Wei is not an inch, and it is rare for the lord to trust, so he simply does not do it, and he will report everything he saw and heard in Shangyong one by one.

This is exactly the information that Jiang Wei desperately needs. The so-called knowing oneself and knowing one's opponent is the only way to survive a hundred battles.

He pinned his hopes on being able to persuade Liu Feng as he did to persuade Xiang Lang today, but the rift between Liu Feng and Guan Yu was extremely deep, and he was really not sure that it would be bridged. If Liu Feng is obsessed and ignores the overall situation, he must prepare for the worst.

And Wang Ping's information came just right, and under the confirmation of the two compartments, the draft plan in his belly had been roughly formed.

In this case, this banquet, which was both a surrender and a discussion meeting, lasted until late at night, and everyone dispersed.

When Jiang Wei was leaving, he walked the untouched kiwifruit on the desk and walked all the way to the backyard of the office. Guan Yinping is a woman, and her status is precious, so Xiang Lang arranged a clean house in the backyard for her to rest.

Jiang Wei gently slammed the door, but there was no response inside. He gently pushed the door open and entered. The room was pitch black, but his eyesight was excellent, and he could vaguely see Guan Yinping wearing a cloak, sleeping on the couch, and making a gentle breathing sound.

After two days and two nights, she was finally tired.

Jiang Wei took a closer look, and saw that the corners of her mouth were slightly raised, and she seemed to be very cute when she was sleeping, and she didn't know if she had temporarily forgotten her troubles in her dream.

Jiang Wei left Chang Chu on the edge of the collapse, and found another blanket to cover her. Fang gently closed the door and turned back to his room.

After a full night's rest, Yu Linlang's spirit was already as full as ever.

Jiang Wei asked Xiang Lang and Xiang Pet to stay in Fangling County to rectify the soldiers and horses, and made an appointment to turn back after three days. In the early morning of the next day, he took Yu Linlang, Guan Yinping, and Wang Ping to Shangyong.

The county seat of Shangyong and the county seat of Fangling are separated by one hundred and fifty miles. Under the full horsepower of the people, the morning and evening are coming.

Jiang Wei once again tried to knock on the city gate with the edict of Hanzhong, but the defenders on the city tower did not give much face, and bluntly said that they needed to report to the officials and asked them to wait.

When they arrived at the foot of the city, the sun had not yet set, and by the time the gates were opened, it was completely dark. Yu Lin Lang is the monarch's personal guard, where has he been so neglected? All of them raised their faces, but Jiang Wei hadn't spoken yet, so he couldn't attack for a while.

At this time, Liu Feng, the deputy general of the army, was entertaining Meng Da and Shen Tan in the mansion.

Meng Da, Zidu, a native of Fufeng County, was originally a subordinate of Liu Zhang, and later surrendered to Liu Bei when Liu Bei entered Shu. In the later part of the Battle of Hanzhong, he was ordered by Liu Bei to attack Fangling from Zigui to the north, and joined Liu Feng who was going south along the Han River at Shangyong.

Shen Tan, the world's top man, is a local wealthy family. Originally the Wei State Shangyong Taishou, due to the siege of Liu Feng and Meng Da surrendered to Shu Han, the official residence was in the original position, and he was awarded the rank of general of Zhengbei.

Liu Feng is the righteous son of Liu Bei, the king of Hanzhong, with a transcendent identity, and his status is far above Meng Da and Shen Tan. He is also conceited of his identity and force, and he doesn't look down on the two generals in front of him. He also knew that his father did not trust the two and gave him the authority to command their armies, so he was not very respectful in his words, and often bullied them under the pretext of excuses.

Don't talk about it far away, let's just say that Liu Feng traveled lightly last month, and met Meng Daling's gorgeous honor guard travel, and compared the two, he made a judgment. In a fit of rage, he deprived Meng Da of his honor guard in public. This incident once made Meng Da a great shame.

But today, the situation has changed, and the rebellions of the Hao clan have come and gone, or without interruption, Liu Feng has a faint uneasiness in his heart, and finally thinks of these two colleagues who have been suppressed by him.

It turned out that a few months ago, Liu Bei initially decided in Hanzhong, and Guan Yu sat in Jingzhou, and the two not only attracted all the firepower of Cao Wei, but also faintly brought the image of the Han Dynasty.

After Liu Feng took Shangyong and other eastern counties, the Shen Tan brothers surrendered, and the local wealthy families all took a wait-and-see attitude, so the local rebellion was very shallow, and the troops in his hands were more than enough to suppress it.

But in the past few days, the situation in Jingzhou has changed, Guan Yu was defeated and retreated to Maicheng, and the pro-Wei forces in the three eastern counties were ready to move, and several rebellions occurred in the county one after another, and the momentum was far from the beginning.

In the past few days, Liu Feng has led his troops to fight fires everywhere, and he is already very busy, and he has no choice but to think about Meng Da and Shen Tan. Meng Da has 4,000 Dongzhou soldiers in his hands, and his combat power is quite good. And Shen Tan is a strong local area, and his influence in the mediocre land can be described as quite large.

He said in his heart, if he can borrow the power of two people, he can get twice the result with half the effort.

Therefore, in the past few days, Liu Feng has set up a banquet in the mansion every day, deliberately enveloping the two. Although the two resented Liu Feng, they also gave enough face on the surface, and they were all staggered for a few days, talking and laughing, and the atmosphere was very good.

Liu Feng was young after all, and he couldn't see that the two of them were purely false and snake committees, and thought that his sincerity had touched them, so he began to put his heart into his heart, and many things that should be said and what should not be said actually confided in the two of them.

"This Guan Yu is also true, when he besieged Fancheng, he came to ask the general to send reinforcements. At that time, Shangyongshan County was first attached, how could the army move lightly? In vain, the general also advised him not to rush in, but he didn't appreciate it, and wrote to his father to sue the general! Hmph, you see, he is so stubborn and self-serving, and he has finally swallowed the evil fruit today! ”

Meng Da looked at the heroic young man on the main seat with a gloating face, and scolded in his heart: "What a vulgar warrior who is brave and unscrupulous, and does not know how to die with cold lips and teeth." ”

However, Liu Feng did not move, which was in line with his idea of preserving his strength, he was about to fight haha, and Shen on the side of the clinker said suddenly: "It's just that the former general is defeated and retreats to Maicheng right now, if you don't go to the rescue, I'm afraid that it will be difficult for the king of Hanzhong to explain afterwards." ”

Meng Da glanced at the other side, and once again sneered: "Shen Tan, this guy is not a fuel-efficient lamp. Naturally, you want me to send troops south with Liu Feng, and it's best not to come back, so that you can vote for Wei again......"

He turned his head to look at Liu Feng again, and sure enough, he saw a hesitant look on Liu Feng's face.

"What a piece of nonsense!"

Meng Da scolded while pretending to be concerned, and persuaded: "Young General, listen to Da's words." The former general was under the joint attack of Wei and Wu, but he was afraid that the general situation had gone, and even if we sent troops to rescue, it was only between success and failure. ”

He swallowed his saliva and said: "What's more, the Shangyong guards are limited after all, and if there are more troops, the Shangyong is dangerous, and if it is broken, it will be the responsibility of our guards; If there are fewer troops, facing the 100,000 troops of Wei and Wu, it is tantamount to hitting a stone with an egg, but I am afraid that if the former general is not saved, we will be humiliated by the enemy. Therefore, Da thought that it was better to be still than to be still, and the young general only needed to guard the door, which would be a great achievement. ”

When Liu Feng heard this, he woke up like a dream, slapped his thigh and said: "Yes, if it weren't for Zidu's words, he would have almost missed a big deal!" Come, raise a glass, Ben will toast you! ”

Shen Tan also secretly glanced at Meng Da, who had a good face, and said in his heart: "Phew! It's good that you are Mencius, you actually said so righteously. It's not that he is reluctant to let those private soldiers in his hands want to preserve his strength. But since Liu Feng has already expressed his position, it is inconvenient for him to insist anymore, so as not to show his feet, but just blindly toast to show respect.

After Meng reached the mediocrity, he blindly lowered himself and became small, where was he treated so respectfully? Therefore, I did not refuse, one bite after another, and never stopped. He didn't drink very well, and under the repeated persuasion of the two, he was already seven or eight points drunk.

In a trance, he thought that the three people present had all contributed to the capture of Shangyong, and Liu Feng was the righteous son of the Lord, needless to mention; Shen Tan retained his original position as before, and also added the title of General Zhengbei; And not only did he not have any reward, but even the original Yidu Taishou was taken away by an unknown junior named Fan You.

Thinking of this section, Meng Da was very sad, and suddenly sighed: "I think that I, Meng Da, am loyal to the lord, but he left me here and ignored me, and I don't know when and when I can return to Shuzhong and see my family." With that, he fell asleep at his desk.

His words had the meaning of resentment against Liu Bei, Shen Tan was shocked when he heard this, and looked at Liu Feng, but saw that Liu Feng was blue and did not say a word.

Meng Da lost his words after drinking, resented Liu Bei, and Liu Feng also hurt him a little.

Back then, in order to support his father in seizing Yizhou, he Liu Feng, Zhuge Liang, Zhang Fei and others each led an army to the west, attacking all the way, invincible, and made great contributions. Yizhou was initially decided, when Guan Yu was named General Dangkou, he led the deputy general Zhonglang General, and there was only half a chip between the two, how complacent he was at that time!

However, at the end of the Battle of Hanzhong, my father became the king of Hanzhong and a great vassal. Guan Yu was only able to defend the town and was awarded the title of former general; And he took the three eastern counties and expanded the land for thousands of miles, but his father only promoted himself by half a level and became a deputy general!

The gap between them was so big that he was once secretly sad. Since he grew up, he has long learned to hide his thoughts, no longer share them with others, and gradually forget what he was pursuing. It's just—

Liu Feng has always believed that the initiator of his father's different attitude is because of Liu Chan's boy. Because the birth of that kid took away his father's love for him and all the attention of others.

Thinking that Liu Chan was sitting firmly in the position of the crown prince at this moment, enjoying the fruits of his blood and sweat, Liu Feng couldn't help but be angry, and his muscles were violent.

Just as he felt sorry for himself, a soldier stepped forward and reported: "Major General Qiyu, there is a group of cavalry guarding a messenger outside the door, saying that he came from Yizhou to comfort Shangyong on the order of the king of Hanzhong." ”

Receiving the envoys of the imperial court has always been a very important matter in the local area, but at the moment, Liu Feng was angry, only waved his hand, and said impatiently: "Take them to the post house to rest, just say that Ben will be unwell, and he will talk about it tomorrow if he has something." ”
