Chapter 4, 53 The Great War is coming

When Guan Yu took Zhang Ren back to the main camp of the Jizhou Army, Zhang Ren knew how powerful the Jizhou Army was, and he had only seen the powerful attack power of the Jizhou Army cavalry before.

Now he is right, the strength of the Jizhou army has a more intuitive concept.

It seems that the reason why Linyi City is still in the hands of the Princes' Alliance is not how solid their defense is and how sharp the city's defense equipment is.

It's because the lord of Jizhou doesn't want to see large casualties in the Jizhou army.

If once the lord of Jizhou makes up his mind to attack Linyi at any cost, then Linyi City can be held for three days, and he should be thankful.

It stands to reason that such a powerful Jizhou army was enough to surprise Zhang Ren, but when he saw the lord of Jizhou, he was even more surprised than just now.

The young and dignified person in front of him turned out to be the legendary lord of Jizhou?

Doesn't it mean that he is two feet tall, his eyes are like copper bells, and he has a big mouth of blood, and he is a man-eating demon king?

Why is there such a huge gap between rumors and reality, but Zhang Ren's brain is not slow, and he quickly figured out the joints.

It must be because the princes in the alliance of princes are afraid of the strength of the lord of Jizhou, so they will deliberately scandalize the image of the other party.

This can give them a verbal pastime, and it can also increase the fear of the subordinates to the lord of Jizhou.

In this way, the soldiers under the battle will not easily surrender to the Jizhou army.

After thinking about it, Zhang Ren couldn't help but feel sad for himself, he would have worked for such a person before, and it was the kind of service that died without regrets.

Now that I think about it, I was really ridiculous, I was the kind of lord who only slandered others verbally and sacrificed his subordinates for petty profits, and he would be so stupid and loyal to him!

If it weren't for this incident, maybe I would have to serve under the command of such a villain for the rest of my life, and even if I died, I would be ashamed of my ancestors and ancestors!

When Zhang Ren was observing Liu Yuan, Liu Yuan was also constantly observing Zhang Ren, and when he heard Guan Yu say that this person was Zhang Ren, Liu Yuan's heart had already appeared a little turbulent.

In fact, speaking of this Zhang Ren, there is nothing bullish.

Although the master is the legendary spear saint Tong Yuan, he is considered to be from the same school as his own teacher, but he really doesn't dare to compliment this senior brother in martial arts.

But other people's records are bullish, and the phoenix chicks of Wolong and Phoenix have to settle the world, and they died under the calculation of their own senior brother.

Although there is a reason for Pang Tong's carelessness to underestimate the enemy, but defeat is defeat, and there is no regret medicine to take on the battlefield.

However, according to the records in the history books, this Zhang Ren can be said to be an absolute diehard loyalist for Liu Yan and Liu Yan's son Liu Zhang.

Why did he come to himself?

Could it be that it was because Liu Yan knew about the relationship between himself and him and wanted to send him to his army to go undercover?

If this is really the case, then Liu Yan also underestimates himself a little.

Although he will have a natural sense of intimacy with his senior brothers, if once they threaten his great cause, then he will definitely not be ambiguous when it is time to make a move.

I think Zhang Xiu is a good example at the beginning, according to the entry time, Zhang Xiu is a little earlier than Zhang Ren, that is his senior brother.

But so what, even if he didn't die at the hands of Cao Cao at the beginning, he would never let him go, because he had already formed a threat to his great cause!

Thinking of this, Liu Yuan's heart couldn't help but have a hint of murderous intent towards Zhang Ren, but he didn't show it at this time, after all, the other party didn't have any suspicious behavior now.

Although Liu Yuan thought that he had hidden it well, Zhang Ren was still keenly aware of his secret killing intent, and he didn't care much about it.

After all, he is only a demoted general, and if he can't come up with convincing reasons and achievements, it is understandable that the new lord will guard against himself.

If Liu Yuan called him a brother as soon as he came up, then Zhang Ren would feel that Liu Yuan was not credible, and he would definitely try his best to escape again!

Now Liu Yuan's performance is very normal, which makes Zhang Ren feel quite satisfied with the decision to come to Liu Yuan.

Next, he told Liu Yuan about what happened to him during this time, and this time Zhang Ren told it in great detail, and even the tiniest details were not missed.

After listening to Zhang Ren's narration, Liu Yuan already believed Zhang Ren in his heart, although Zhang Ren recorded in the history books was a diehard loyalist in Shu, but things are always changing.

At that time, there was no appearance of its own, and with its own appearance, history has long been a matter of people.

Now the five tiger generals of Shu Han are all gathered under their command, and what is the great deal about one more Zhang Ren.

Liu Yuan's change was quickly sensed by the keen Zhang Ren, who knew that his first step had been successful, and now he needed to show his worth.

Only in this way can you gain the trust of the new Lord faster.

So that it is possible to avenge those brothers of his own, thinking of this, Zhang Ren said the truth in Linyi City at this time.

When Liu Yuan heard that the other party didn't have many city-guarding equipment, his heart was relieved.

Although he has no plans now, he adopts Zhang Ren's siege strategy. But a powerful fortification apparatus like that is still a great threat to his troops.

Even if his subordinates were able to blow down the walls of Linyi, once the other side gathered that kind of defensive equipment against them, it would still cause huge casualties to his troops.

Now that he can finally let go of the big stone in his heart, since he already knows that the other party will not cause too much damage to his troops, then he will order the siege of the city tomorrow!

After talking with Zhang Ren for a while, Liu Yuan asked him to go down to rest first, and as for Zhang Ren's request to slash Liu Yan, Liu Yuan said that he would definitely consider it.

Regarding Liu Yuan's slightly perfunctory wording, although Zhang Ren was a little unhappy in his heart, he also knew that this was the most normal.

If he wants to gain a firm foothold under Liu Yuan's command, then only if he works hard can he be recognized by his new master.

After Zhang Ren gave Liu Yuan a deep salute, he withdrew from Liu Yuan's big tent, and when Zhang Ren left, Liu Yuan immediately called Jia Xu and Guan Yu in.

Then the three of them discussed in Liu Yuan's tent for two hours, and it was not until the light of day that Jia Xu and Guan Yu walked out of Liu Yuan's tent.

The two of them did not have any stop, and after leaving Liu Yuan's big tent, the two immediately galloped away in the direction of Yongzhou with the cavalry troops that had already been ready to go.

And Liu Yuan was not idle here, after Guan Yu and Jia Xu left, Liu Yuan immediately ordered the drumming to gather the generals, and soon his big tent was full!
