Chapter 53: It's best if it's unreliable.

Yang Huai and Gao Pei obviously couldn't believe it when they heard Liu Bei say that they wanted the two of them to go back to Liu Zhang to do internal response. Pen? Interesting?

Liu Bei and the two agreed that on the third watch day when Liu Zhang led the army to set up camp near Liu Beijun, the two of them set fire to Liu Zhang's camp, and the inside and outside should cooperate with Liu Bei to rob the village. In order for someone to cooperate with them, Liu Bei also specially asked the two to select five hundred people from the captives to reward them and let them cooperate with Yang Huai and Gao Pei to make meritorious contributions that night, and promised in front of all the captives that once they succeeded, the remaining captives would be released immediately!

Zhuge Song looked at the thousands of captives, and looked at Yang Huai and Gao Pei one by one, and they did not have resentment that they were going to betray Liu Zhang, on the contrary, Zhuge Song saw a desire, a desire to regain their freedom on them and the other five hundred captives. Many of them even knelt down to Yang Huai and Gao Pei and begged them to do their best, but Yang Huai and Gao Pei's faces were very unnatural, they just waved their hands weakly at them, and immediately got on their horses and led people away.

The reason why Pang Tong made up for the two was that the two fought desperately to get out of the encirclement that night, so they were able to return to Liu Zhang. Zhuge Song felt that this reason was so bad that it had no technical content. However, Zhuge Song couldn't think of any better reason, and he felt that these two guys would immediately report to Liu Zhang when they went back anyway, so even if this reason was bad, it was actually not harmful.

In this way, when Liu Zhang's 30,000 troops were about to approach Liu Beijun, Liu Beijun decisively abandoned the camp where Yang Huai and Gao Pei's garrisons were stationed in Henan, and all retreated to Zhuge Song's original camp on the north side of the river against the West Mountain.

Zhuge Song didn't know how Liu Zhang would feel when he saw the big camp that Yang Huai and Gao Pei had lost, and he didn't know if Liu Zhang would believe what Yang Huai and Gao Pei said, and take strict precautions at night to prepare to deal with Liu Beijun's robbery camp. In contrast, Zhang Lujun, who has always been only willing to help 3,000 people and does not return to Yangping Pass, is now very suspicious, Liu Bei, who has just been in the shadow of others, even asked Pang Tong if Zhang Lu would suddenly shadow himself from behind when he was fighting with Liu Zhang, Zhuge Song felt that after he and Pang Tong persuaded Liu Beiyin Liu Zhang, Liu Bei also became a skeptic. In the long run, this will definitely be very unfavorable to Liu Bei, although Zhuge Song is eager to help Liu Bei take Yizhou, he did not consider that the side effects of this matter will be so big.

But the arrow is on the bow, it has to be sent, if you can't find out Zhang Lu's true attitude, then the next action will be very dangerous, maybe Liu Beijun will make a whole mess first, and then it is likely that Zhuge Song will become Liu Zhang's prisoner, and Yang Huai and Gao Pei, who were fed up with the, may not have the right to do anything to Liu Bei at that time, but they will definitely not let go of Zhuge Song, who has such a ruthless idea.

There was no way, Zhuge Song could only go to Zhang Luzhai in person to explore the reality. Liu Bei said that this trip was dangerous and he would not let him go, but Zhuge Song could see that this was not true, and he even doubted whether he was a conspiracy theory now, because he had done something that violated morality, so he didn't look like a good person.

Of course, Zhuge Song couldn't say to Liu Bei that you don't want to be hypocritical here, in fact, you must wish I would go right now and bring you the good news you want from Zhang Lu. simply let it go, and it was much more righteous and awe-inspiring, and when I thought of the uncertain future of my future, a tragic emotion naturally arose.

Zhuge Song didn't expect Zhang Lu to welcome himself very warmly, not to mention, Yang Song has been praising his good in front of Zhang Lu, saying that Zhuge Song's young hero is a rare general. Zhang Lu also kept asking Zhuge Song to apologize to Liu Bei for him, and once again emphasized in his words that because Cao Cao was likely to bring the army to the west soon, he couldn't go deep into Shu with Liu Bei.

Zhang Lu's attitude finally made Zhuge Song's heart put down a big stone, and Zhuge Song even came up with an idea, it was better to tell Zhang Lu that he had asked Yang Huai and Gao Pei to go back to do the internal thing, and asked him to rob Liu Zhang's camp at the third watch, and Liu Beijun only sent a small number of troops to make a show, and when Zhang Lu and Liu Zhang were tired of fighting, they would send troops to clean up the mess.

But Zhuge Song didn't do that after all, after the last strategy, Liu Bei's changes made Zhuge Song regret it a little, if it can be said that the use of allies can be said to be a last resort, then a short interval of time is likely to make Liu Bei's reputation completely ruined, then he is the king of benevolence and righteousness, and he will not dare to think about what his personality will become. If Liu Bei becomes a tyrant who is constantly suspicious of people because of this, then even if Zhuge Song helps him win the country, what will be the point?

And when the time comes, Zhang Lu, who is defeated and injured by Liu Zhang, will also be completely hostile to Liu Bei, Liu Beijun only has more than 10,000 people, and Zhang Lu and Liu Zhang's army add up to 50,000 people, even if they are both defeated, Zhuge Song wants to capture Zhang Lu alive, it is almost impossible for Zhang Lu to capture Zhang Lu alive, as long as Zhang Lu escapes back to Yangping Pass, and the remnants of Liu Zhang's army will unite to surround Liu Bei on both sides, and then it will no longer be Liu Zhang but Zhuge Song himself who will fall into the Jedida!

So in the end, Zhuge Song still told Zhang Lu about his real plan, Zhang Lu listened to it again and again, and Yang Song was also in a gang to help, saying that once it succeeded, Zhang Lu's King Hanning would be just around the corner! Coaxed Zhang Shijun to be happy, and immediately made a decision, agreeing to attack Liu Zhang's camp with Liu Bei at dawn.

Before going back, Yang Song sent Zhuge Song for Zhang Lu, Zhuge Song quietly asked him about the past, Yang Song told Zhuge Song that the reason why Zhang Lu had always refused to send troops to attack Liu Zhang with Liu Bei was because Ma Chao had sat firmly in Liangzhou at this time, and was actively contacting Qiang and Zhang Lu to form a coalition to attack Chang'an again, and promised that as long as Chang'an was captured, he would not advance, and in the future, Chang'an would be built into a strong city only to defend, so that Cao Cao's forces would never be able to enter Yongzhou and Liangzhou.

Therefore, Yang Ang, the general who originally brought more than 10,000 people to help Ma Chao, wrote a letter back, asking Zhang Lu to send troops and horses and powerful generals to help. For Zhang Lu, no matter how attractive the title of King Hanning was, it was not as practical as completely eliminating Cao Cao's threat, so these days he ordered Yang Ang to continue to stay in Jicheng to assist Ma Chao, and on the other hand, he ordered his younger brother Zhang Wei to return to Yangping Pass and send 10,000 people to help. Because of this, in addition to the 20,000 troops here, there were no more than 10,000 soldiers left in Hanzhong, so Zhang Lu was reluctant to lead the army deep into Shu. But Zhang Lu was afraid that the withdrawal of the army would leave Liu Bei here and defeat Liu Zhang, so he did not advance or retreat, planning to wait for the good news from Ma Chao's side to help Ma Chao's army and horses return to Yangping Pass, and then it was not too late to attack Liu Zhang.

In the end, Yang Song said to Zhuge Song with a flattering face: "General Zhuge has done everything possible for Uncle Liu Huang's affairs, and I hope you will return to your lord to say a lot of good things for me, and when Liu Zhang is broken tomorrow, don't forget the promise you made to me and my lord!" ”

Zhuge Song understood that Yang Song was referring to the 1,500 taels of gold before and after and helping Zhang Lu become the king of Hanning, and at this time he was about to rely on Yang Song's contribution, Zhuge Song naturally promised, promising that as long as it was done, everything would be indispensable to him, and Yang Song was so happy that his eyes were about to be gone, and he thanked Zhuge Song again and again.
