Chapter 402: Zhang Fei's Purpose
Regarding Liu Zhang's thoughts, Zhang Songchai is clear. However, the most important thing at the moment is to have a clear understanding of the combat power of the Youzhou Army.
In terms of fighting against foreign tribes, Yizhou soldiers were not a problem, and several rebellions of the Nanban were finally evaluated. As for the Youzhou cavalry, most of the Yizhou generals selectively ignored it.
The difficulty of the road in Yizhou, how did the cavalry march? Not to mention combat. It is estimated that there is only room for play in the vicinity of Chengdu, so the generals of Yizhou think that the powerful Youzhou cavalry is useless at all.
It was only a matter of time before Liu Zhang sent someone to Hanzhong again. In order to further understand the strength of Youzhou, Zhang Song decided to meet Meng Da in person, and the reason why he was able to calm down a militant must have been to meet a strong opponent.
The hard work paid off, and Zhang Song took out all the information from Meng Da's mouth. With this information as a foundation, Zhang Song already seemed a little impatient.
Why is this so?
To say that when Liu Yan was alive, Zhang Song was a dedicated assistant. How to say that Liu Yan is also a descendant of Liu Yu, King Lugong of the Western Han Dynasty, as a member of the Han Dynasty clan, he once worshiped as Zhonglang, and successively served as the Luoyang Order, Jizhou Thorn History, Nanyang Taishou, Zongzheng, Taichang and other officials.
Because he heard Dong Fu say that Yizhou has the spirit of the Son of Heaven and asked the court to be the pastor of Yizhou, it can be seen that Liu Yan is a capable and ambitious person.
But Liu Zhang, although he is Liu Yan's own son, his cowardly and suspicious personality makes it impossible for him to become a big weapon. Therefore, the scholars who have a little power in Yizhou are all ready to move.
Money can make ghosts grind, and driven by interests, no one can escape this law. It's just that everyone's goals are different, and Zhang Song is influenced by his friends and has a strong interest in Huo Yu and his Youzhou army.
"Filial piety, what you say is true!"
"What does Ziqiao mean?"
"In a short period of time, Hanzhong County has undergone earth-shaking changes!" Zhang Song said as he stroked the tiger's whiskers.
"It is rumored that Meng Da was frightened, is this true?"
"Half and half!"
The two of them just said a word to me, and drank a jar of daughter red that had just been snatched from Meng Da.
"What wine! It's a pity that Meng Da was too picky, so he sent an altar! Seeing that the bottom of the altar was exposed, Zhang Song complained a little.
"Ziqiao will go and ask for some more!"
"Meng Dana, don't think about it!"
"No, but..."As soon as the words came out, the two looked at each other and laughed.
As Zhang Song guessed, before half a month had passed, Liu Zhang planned to send an envoy to Hanzhong again. I don't know who Liu Zhang was bewitched by, but he never forgot Hanzhong County.
"Lord, I am willing to send an envoy to Hanzhong!" As soon as Liu Zhang spoke, Zhang Song couldn't wait to jump out.
At this time, the whole hall suddenly fell silent, Zhang Song spoke, and Liu Zhang was embarrassed to disagree, so in the eyes of everyone's hatred, Zhang Song left Chengdu and came to Hanzhong.
In Hanzhong in winter, the weather is exceptionally cold, and the snowfall for several days indicates that this winter is not so good.
"Dog, the stove used in the room must be remembered to use it!" At the head of the city, a captain shouted to a soldier who had just changed the guard.
"Uh-huh, remember!"
"If you use it wrong, you will die!"
After speaking, Wu Chang began to perform his duties. In such a cold winter, if it was in the past, the wives and children at home would not be happy, but there is no need to worry about this winter, the welfare policy of the Youzhou Army makes these soldiers have no worries.
The "creaking and squeaking" carriage struggled through the heavy snow, and the driver of the carriage looked like a snowman from a distance.
"Click!" There was a rush of horses' hooves.
"I've seen the general!" Wu Chang, who had already received the news before, stood in front of Zhang Fei and saluted at this moment.
Zhang Fei waved his hand and went straight out of the horse. For this fierce-looking general, the soldiers were in awe or awe.
"My lord, I finally arrived at Nanzheng, this unlucky snowy day!" The driver complained as he reported it.
"It's Yizhou Zhang Beijia?" After seeing the carriage, Zhang Feize immediately stepped forward and asked aloud.
When Zhang Song heard this, his heart was shocked, and he hurriedly got out of the carriage!
"It's Zhang Song, but the general is Zhang Fei and Zhang Yide?" Looking at the male-looking general in front of him, Zhang Song asked.
"Haha! I'm a rough man, don't be tired of the journey, hurry up and follow me into the city to rest! ”
"There is General Law!"
On the way to the post house, Zhang Song was a little surprised, how could he expose his whereabouts when he came in civilian clothes. However, looking at Zhang Fei's appearance, there was no malice. Zhang Song didn't think about it anymore, and casually lifted the curtain of the car, and reflected a different scenery in front of him.
That night, Zhang Song appeared at the reception dinner with a shocked expression. However, before he could speak, Zhang Fei was poured into the wine bowl after bowl, and there was nothing Yan Xiang did in the whole process. In the end, Zhang Song was carried back to the post house.
The next day, Zhang Song woke up, and after a sumptuous breakfast, he was taken to the Taishou Mansion.
"Can you rest in a don't fight?" Seeing Zhang Song coming quickly, Yan Xiang put down the scroll in his hand and got up to salute.
"Lord Yan is polite!" Zhang Song replied.
After finishing speaking, Zhang Song looked around nervously, this move was in Yan Xiang's eyes, but he was secretly laughing in his heart.
After confirming that Zhang Fei was indeed not there, the two started a formal prevarication, in short, no one cared about the result. Unconsciously chatted until nightfall, and the two were knowledgeable and sympathetic.
At the dinner, Zhang Fei came in a hurry. After seeing Zhang Fei's alcohol consumption last night, Zhang Song was a little nervous. However, what is strange is that Zhang Fei did not take the initiative to drink tonight.
"Does the general know that the land of Hanzhong is under the jurisdiction of Yizhou?" Zhang Song deliberately provoked Zhang Feidao.
"Uh-huh!" Zhang Fei hummed twice and continued to nibble on the pig's trotters.
"When does the general intend to withdraw his troops? Return Hanzhong to Yizhou? Zhang Song held the wine cup and made it difficult again.
"Oh? Lord Yan didn't explain it to the other frame? Such a big thing, I can't be the master. Zhang Fei said.
"Besides, Lord Yan is in charge of government affairs, and I, Lao Zhang, are only in charge of military affairs. For such a big matter, please go to Youzhou to discuss with the lord. ”
"Oh, I almost forgot! The lord has been filial piety for three years, and Mr. Annoyance has lived in Youzhou for three years! ”
"This..."Zhang Fei's words suddenly made Zhang Song speechless.
"Oops! My old Zhang almost made a mistake again! When the lord was leaving, he told him that there were guests in Yizhou, and I Lao Zhang was responsible for accompanying the wine! ”
"Come, bring the wine jar!"
When Zhang Song really opened his eyes again, he slapped his forehead and laughed at himself, "It's not interesting to look for yourself!" ”。
After repeating this for several days, Zhang Song knew Meng Da's hardships.
In fact, Zhang Fei respects literati very much, and after getting along for a while, the two gradually talked about nothing. However, once it came to the core secrets of Youzhou, Zhang Fei began to play stupid!
"That, Brother Ziqiao, I heard how many beautiful women are in Yizhou? I'm still a single, can you help me talk about family affairs? ”
"You, I'm angry!"
In the face of Zhang Fei's answer, Zhang Song got up and flicked his sleeves, it seems that today is "no longer able to play happily"!
