Chapter 2079 - Stealing Half a Day of Leisure
Zhang Zhao knew that no matter how long he stayed in Sima Yi's army, it would not do him any good in the peace talks with Great Wei this time.
He had to meet Cao Shuo and discuss specific matters with Cao Shuo in order to facilitate a collegiate discussion.
Sima Yi detained his guards and assigned him several additional soldiers to escort him to Chengdu.
Fa Zheng captured the entire Yizhou, Zhuge Liang fled to the southern barbarian territory, and Yang Xiu led the army to temporarily garrison in the south of Yizhou.
At the end of the battle of Cuiping Mountain, Ma Chao also led his troops and horses to join Yang Xiu.
Yizhou, which ended the war, entered a period of relative tranquility.
From Jiaozhou to Yizhou, the distance is much closer than from Yangzhou and other places to Shu.
Soon, the news of Zhang Zhao's arrival in Yizhou reached Cao Shuo's ears.
In addition to the news that Zhang Zhao came to Yizhou, Cao Shuo also learned how Sima Yi gave Zhang Zhao a problem in Jiaozhou.
In the backyard of the Shu Han Palace, there is a pond.
It is more appropriate to say that it is not so much a pond as an artificial lake that has been dug up.
The surface of the lake is not very large, and you can see from one end to the other, but it seems to be quite far away.
Sitting by the lake, Cao Shuo was wearing a hat and was leisurely fishing.
Sitting with him were Lu Xun and Jiang Wei.
Both of them used to be officials in the south, and the southern waterways were crisscrossed, and there were many fish and shrimp in the water, and in their spare time, they would also go to the water's edge to fish.
The fishing skills of the servants are the most undecent.
After sitting all morning, Cao Shuo caught two small fish with chopsticks, and Lu Xun and Jiang Wei, who were placed in the bamboo basket in the water in front of them, had already gained a lot.
"Liu Xuande will really enjoy it." Fishing for fish, Cao Shuo sighed with emotion: "I dug an artificial lake in the palace, and there are so many fish in it, people like me who don't know how to fish can get a few." ”
"The fish here were originally river fish." Jiang Wei replied: "In order to release fish in the lake, it took a lot of labor.
"It's not that Liu Xuande is diligent and thrifty, and his life is not extravagant, why do you still make such a show?" Cao Shuo asked Jiang Wei.
"It may be that he ran around in his early years, and he didn't even have a few days of stable life, so he hopes to live a stable life." Jiang Wei replied: "When he came to Yizhou, the first thing he did was to open this lake here. ”
"You can go boating and fishing on the lake, which is really a bit relaxing." Cao Shuo nodded.
"Lord, I heard that Zhang Zhao is coming to Chengdu." Lu Xun asked Cao Shuo: "He came to Chengdu to vote for the lord, I don't know what the lord's plan is?" ”
"Sun Zhongmou is willing to come to Chengcheng, of course I won't embarrass him." Cao Shuo said: "I'm afraid that he is not sincere, if he does something secretly under the guise of surrendering, it will bring a lot of casualties to the soldiers." ”
"The Lord and General Sima say the same." Lu Xun replied: "If it were me, I wouldn't be like General Sima." ”
"Why?" Cao Shuo turned his head to look at Lu Xun.
Lu Xun said: "Zhang Zhao is an old minister of the Sun family, he is a generous person, and everyone in the Sun family knows it. Moreover, when the lord led the army to crusade against Jiangdong, Zhang Zhaoyi also advocated peace. But Zhou Gongjin, Lu Zijing and others refused to surrender easily, so there was a battle of Chibi. ”
Listening to what Lu Xun said, Cao Shuo was silent.
In the first battle of Chibi, he was really worried at that time.
According to historical records, the Battle of Chibi was won by the Sun family in Jiangdong, but he forcibly reversed the outcome of that battle.
Of course, it was impossible for him to tell Lu Xun and Jiang Wei what he knew.
As their lord, if he said that he knew history, history should have been like that, and his appearance changed everything, the two of them would definitely murmur in their hearts.
"What does Bo Yan think I should do with Zhang Zhao?" Cao Shuo asked.
"He came to see the lord, just to seek peace, what I'm worried about is not Zhang Zhao, but Zhou Yu and others." Lu Xun said: "I used to be an official in Eastern Wu, and I am also very familiar with Zhou Yu and others. They are wise, but the slightest negligence can be grasped by them and turn the tide of the war. ”
"What do you mean......" Lu Xun said so much and didn't say his suggestion, Cao Shuo opened his mouth to ask.
"The lord is waiting in Chengdu, I'll go see Zhang Zhao first." Lu Xun replied: "Zhang Zhao and I are also old friends, and when he sees me, it should be easier for him to speak clearly." ”
"Actually, I also think it's more appropriate for Bo Yan to go to Zhang Zhao for a while." Cao Shuo seemed to respond very casually.
Before he finished speaking, the float floating on the water moved, and Cao Shuo's topic suddenly stopped, and shouted to Lu Xun and Jiang Wei: "Look, the float is moving, this time it must be a big fish!" ”
Lu Xun got Cao Shuo's approval, and after fishing with him for a day, he took a team of soldiers to welcome Zhang Zhao.
Zhang Zhao entered Yizhou and received a lot of interrogations along the way, only to find that today's Yizhou is very different from when Liu Bei was still there.
Cao Shuo attached great importance to the stability of Yizhou, not only sending additional soldiers and horses in charge of public security in various places, but also setting up checkpoints at many important intersections to prevent thieves.
Especially in the southern part of Yizhou, the Southern Barbarians used to harass this place from time to time, in order to prevent the people from being harassed by the Southern Barbarians, Cao Shuo ordered to send a lot of additional soldiers to guard against the Southern Barbarians who might enter Yizhou at any time.
The army was stationed nearby, and it was not difficult to send more soldiers.
The checkpoints on the road made the thieves who used to run rampant in the countryside have a hard time day by day, and also made the southern barbarians unable to find a chance to enter Yizhou easily, which also brought a lot of trouble to Zhang Zhao and others.
All the way was stopped by the checkpoint, if it weren't for the guards escorting Zhang Zhao sent by Sima Yi, the checkpoint didn't embarrass them much, and I don't know when the road will go.
There are still more than 100 miles away from Chengdu, looking ahead, Zhang Zhao has a feeling of relief.
If he continues to go on like this, he may not be able to withstand the interrogation he encounters on the road.
As he was walking, Zhang Zhao saw a group of people appear in front of him.
The number of people in the oncoming team was not very large, and it seemed that there were only three or four hundred people who had booked it.
Unsure who it was, Zhang Zhao motioned for the guards to stop.
Although he was escorted to Yizhou by Sima Yi's orders, the guards also knew that the most important thing was to protect Zhang Zhao.
He told the crowd to stop, and the guards did.
A pair of eyes looked ahead, and as the other party got closer and closer, one of the guards shouted, "It's your own people coming!" ”
Everyone had already seen clearly that the team that was coming towards them was holding the banner of the Wei army.
Seeing this scene, except for Zhang Zhao, everyone else seemed to be relieved.
The oncoming team was getting closer and closer, and Zhang Zhao finally saw clearly that the person who walked in front was actually Lu Xun, who betrayed Jiaozhou and served Cao Shuo. 2k reading web
