Zhang Ren knew that the true identity of the mysterious governor of the three armies in Yizhou was Liu Bei. If Liu Bei did not have the support of Liu Zhang's close ministers and generals, even if Liu Zhang appointed him as the governor of the three armies in Yizhou, it was unlikely that Liu Bei would really be able to control Yizhou's military horses.

Therefore, Zhang Ren is now equivalent to Liu Bei's diehard. Of course, he knew almost everything, but he was willing to serve Liu Bei, and in order to help Liu Bei control the military horses in Yizhou, he would rather betray Liu Zhang.

Zhang Ren, a native of Shu County, Yizhou, a subordinate of Yizhou Mu Liu Zhang, was an official in Yizhou. According to the wild history, when Liu Bei entered Sichuan, he was already the governor of the three armies in Yizhou. He led the army against Liu Bei in Sichuan, repelled Liu Bei's army many times, and participated in the battle of ambushing and shooting Pang Tong in Luofengpo. Later, Zhuge Liang supported Liu Bei from Jingzhou and captured Zhang Ren with a trick, but Zhang Renning died and refused to surrender, so he was beheaded.

But in this life, Zhang Ren has become Liu Bei's diehard, which can be described as a creation and a trick.

However, all this is not too strange, and it is not impossible for the world to understand.

First of all, it is true that Zhang Ren is a native of Shudu in Yizhou, but he is not a member of the family in Chengdu, Yizhou. When he was a teenager, he left his homeland to seek a teacher to learn art, and then threw himself under Liu Yan's account, and it happened that Liu Yan went from Youzhou to Yizhou as a state pastor, so he returned to his homeland with Liu Yan.

Secondly, Zhang Ren is in Yizhou, and he seems to be the number one military general in the army, he holds his own martial arts and is unwilling to be buried in Yizhou. Back then, he also made several requests to Liu Yan to send troops to compete for the world. It's a pity that Liu Yan is old and no longer ambitious, and he died of back sores a few years ago. His son Liu Zhang succeeded him as the pastor of Yizhou. In comparison, Liu Zhang is even worse than his father. What did Liu Yan say. They are all masters with real talents, but what about Liu Zhang? Weak and mediocre. Even Zhang Lu in Hanzhong can bully him, and if others say a few cruel words, he will not dare to send troops to fight against him. With such a lord, how can Zhang Ren, who is ambitious, be willing to serve him all his life?

Thirdly, the relationship of interests. Zhang Ren is not a wealthy family in Yizhou, and he has followed Liu Yan back to Yizhou for more than ten years, but he has not been able to get the benefits he wants. Yizhou is a relatively stable situation in all walks of life. are all controlled in the hands of some old wealthy scholars, it is difficult for him to meddle in some industries with interests, I am afraid that it is the Qinglou industry, he can't compete for Baihua Pavilion, and he can't fight the deep-rooted Lin family.

In the end, Liu Bei directly entered Xichuan and came to Liu Zhang's side, and soon won Liu Zhang's trust and followed a series of strategies. Let Zhang Ren feel admired. At least, Zhang Ren saw Liu Bei's unyielding ambition, especially under Liu Bei's deliberate wooing. After promising some greater benefits, Zhang Ren felt that it was much better to follow Liu Bei than to continue to stumble like this. At least. Reasonable or not, you have to get a lot of benefits first.

Raid the Jade Family. He did it. The huge wealth obtained in it made him jaw-dropping. The benefits he received were enough for him to spend all his life.

In this way, with the above conditions, Zhang Renming knew that Liu Bei had wolf ambitions, and he was hiding from Liu Zhang's control of Yizhou's military horses, and he had the intention of replacing Liu Zhang. However, Zhang Ren is still on Liu Bei's side and is willing to be Liu Bei's minion.

There are actually many people like Zhang Ren, such as Fa Zheng, Deng Xian, Pang Xi, etc., who have now surrendered to Liu Bei openly and secretly.

Therefore, he doesn't know the situation inside for the time being, that is, he has also decided not to let Huang Quan meet Liu Zhang. You must know that such as Huang Quan and other old wealthy families in Yizhou are the targets of Liu Bei and a group of people who are obedient to him, Yizhou wants to fight against the New Han Army, maintain self-reliance, and even have the opportunity to compete in the world in the future, it is necessary to have a lot of money support, and money will not come out of thin air, most of them are in the hands of the wealthy families in some places, so if you want to make the Yizhou Army can fight against the New Han Army in the short term, you must do something to the wealthy families in Yizhou.

Therefore, Zhang Ren did not mind killing Huang Quan on the spot, and then seizing Huang Quan's family business.

Here, I have to talk about another character, Pang Xi, he and Liu Yan were originally in-laws, and his daughter married Liu Zhang's eldest son Liu Xun as his wife. Pang Xi was also one of Liu Yan's old ministers back then, and even followed Liu Yan for a longer time than Zhang Ren. But in history, because of his arrogance and self-respect, he privately recruited people as a tribe (the kind of people is fierce, and Han Gaozu relied on their help to pacify the world), so he was suspected by Liu Zhang, and he also wanted to betray Liu Zhang as a prince, but was later stopped by Cheng Ji.

Pang Xi himself is also an ambitious person, after Liu Yan died of illness, Liu Zhang was weak and incompetent, and he already had the idea of self-reliance. In particular, he thought that if Liu Zhang also died of illness, then the position of Yizhou pastor would fall on his son Liu Xun. And Liu Xun is not better than his father, he is also a person with no talent and no courage, usually, he is managed to death by Pang Xi's daughter, the famous wife is in charge of inflammation, and he is also in awe of his father-in-law. Therefore, Pang Xi thought that if Liu Zhang died of illness and was succeeded by Liu Xun, he would be the national teacher and the abbot, and he could manipulate all the affairs of Yizhou behind his back. Therefore, he knew that Liu Bei was also a tiger and wolf, but he still colluded with Liu Bei and planned to murder Liu Zhang.

Therefore, at this time, there are not too many people like Huang Quan, who are still loyal to Liu Zhang and want to save Liu Zhang from Liu Bei's house arrest.

Huang Quan originally thought that he could call on many people to join him in the matter, but in fact, there were far fewer than he imagined. For the time being, only a few people such as Liu Gui and Meng Da led the army to respond, and the total number of military horses was only twenty or thirty thousand. However, even so, Huang Quan still led the army without hesitation.

Now, Zhang Ren led the army to come, and his military horses suddenly exceeded Huang Quan's military horses by more than half.

Under such circumstances, Huang Quan's side is already completely at a disadvantage. Faintly surrounded by Liu Bei, Zhang Ren's military horses and Pang Xi's military horses who heard the news.

Just when Zhang Ren was about to give the order to besiege Huang Quan and other military horses, Liu Yi had already escaped from the palace with Liu Zhang on his back, and could see clearly from a two-story pavilion next to the street. For a while, Liu Yi shouted in his heart that it was not good, and felt that Huang Quan's action this time was too rash.

But it has come to this, and Liu Yi didn't think too much about it. My heart moved, and I called Mrs. Zhurong, who was following her. Let her cooperate a little more, holding her in one hand. jumped down from a high place and went directly to Huang Quan's side.

"Slow down! Prince Ben has something to say! When Liu Yi's figure landed, he shouted at the same time.

"Got it?" When Huang Quan saw it, he was overjoyed, and hurriedly stepped forward, saw Liu Zhang behind Liu Yi's back, and quickly knelt down and said, "Lord!" The ministers did not protect well, and almost let the lord's inheritance fall into the hands of thieves, which is really a crime that deserves death! ”

"Ahem...... Gongheng (Huang Quanzi). What are you—What are you doing here? Liu Zhang was still so confused, and coughed very puzzled.

"Okay, I'll talk about that later, for now, let's get out of here first!" Liu Yi put Liu Zhang down and asked Huang Quan to get up and hug Liu Zhang.

"This prince is the prince of the Li Yao clan, Aguidu! The barbarian king Meng Shu is not here! Liu Yi saw that Liu Bei and Zhang Ren had more and more military horses, and knew that if they didn't leave here as soon as possible, it would be even more troublesome for a while, so. I had to make use of Mrs. Zhurong again.

"This king is here! Aguidu! If it's a man, let my wife go first! Meng Shu was naturally nearby, and he was as anxious as an ant on a hot nest at the moment, for fear that the turmoil in Chengdu would affect Mrs. Zhurong and hear Liu Yi's cry. Hurry out of a street with his rattan armor soldiers.

"Put! Put it right away! But now you will open the way for this prince and wait until you get to the place. Release Mrs. Zhurong immediately! ”

"Aguidu! Don't overdo it! Do you still want to command this king? Meng was furious when he heard this, panting like a cow. I can't kill Liu Yi right away. He was able to endure it for so long, and he had reached the limit.

"King Meng. Don't listen to that treacherous villain, he and your wife...... Uh...... "Liu Bei rushed out of the palace with great anger at this time, and heard Liu Yi's shouting, but he saw with his own eyes that Mrs. Zhurong helped this prince of Aguidu escape from the palace, and was about to shout that this prince was in league with Mrs. Zhurong, but when the words came to his mouth, he thought about it, this matter was a little unclear, if he completely angered Meng Shu, it would be really a big deal, so he didn't know how to explain this matter clearly for a while.

"Humph! That's whatever you want, I'm Gui will do what he says, as long as you open the way for my people, when you get to the place, release Mrs. Zhurong immediately! Liu Yi looked indifferent, turned his head to Huang Quan and asked, "General Huang Quan, where are you going?" Now I'm afraid I'm torn my face, and I can't do it without a place for your army to defend. ”

"North City Gate!" Huang Quan almost didn't think about it, and said: "The military camp near the north city gate is the camp of our military horses, and the general guarding the city gate is Huang's brother-in-law, we can confront them according to a city gate, and when the time comes, we can defend or escape." ”

"Good!" Liu Yi nodded, turned his head and said to Meng Huo: "This prince is going to the north city gate, and I will trouble King Meng Huo." ”

"King Meng, don't believe him!" Liu Bei shouted anxiously.

Meng Shu's face changed several times, and he finally suppressed the anger in his heart, and asked angrily: "What do you say?" ”

"I swear in the name of my god of the Li Yao clan, when I get to the north gate, I will definitely release Mrs. Zhurong!" Lewy swore without thinking.

"Humph!" Meng Shu snorted angrily, and then walked to the gate of the palace, and said to Liu Bei in a low voice: "Dudu, my wife is still in the hands of that person, it's not easy to do, otherwise, let them go to the north gate first, and when the time comes, after he releases Mrs. Wang, our two armies will besiege them together." The king promised that he would not let him escape. ”

"This ...... Alas, the organs are exhausted, but they are all lost in this link. Liu Bei looked at Meng Shu silently, and then sighed for a while and said, "That's it, that's it." ”

Liu Bei now dared to kill Liu Zhang together, but he didn't dare to turn against Meng Shu. Although he clearly saw that Mrs. Zhurong and Prince Na Guidu were in the same group, at this moment, she was dumb and eating yellow lotus, and there was no way to explain it to Meng Shu at all. In addition to seeking to seize Yizhou, what is more important is to rely on the army of the Southern Barbarian tribe to fight against the New Han Army. Therefore, Liu Bei can only forcibly hold back his mood and agree to Meng Huo.

With Liu Bei's consent, naturally there was no real need for Meng Shu to lead the army to open the way, Liu Bei didn't let Zhang Ren, Li Yan and other generals do it, so he naturally got out of the way.

Huang Quan didn't say much, and hurriedly commanded the military horses, escorted Liu Zhang, and retreated to the north of the city.

Of course, Liu Bei, Zhang Ren, Li Yan, Meng Shu, etc., immediately arranged their military horses, and followed closely behind step by step, just waiting for Liu Yi to release Mrs. Zhurong, they would immediately attack Huang Quanjun.

The situation seems a bit delicate, and it feels like a thousand things are in the driver's seat.

Liu Yi hurriedly discussed with Huang Quan, and then let his three hundred elite soldiers help organize the soldiers of Huang Quan's army while retreating.

Liu Yi also saw that the enemy army had organized a cavalry army intentionally or unintentionally, and let Meng Shu's thousands of rattan armor soldiers in front. Liu Yi believed that as soon as he let Mrs. Zhurong leave, these Yizhou cavalry and Meng Huo's rattan armor soldiers would be killed immediately.

For the cavalry on the Yizhou side, Liu Yi didn't care too much, because he had already let his three hundred soldiers organize the pikemen and archers in the Huang Quan army, so that the pikemen and archers could press the formation and guard the gate in the north of the city. However, after a closer look, Meng Shu's thousands of rattan armor soldiers made Liu Yi a little worried.

I don't know how these barbarians weave and manufacture rattan armor, and its rattan armor wraps the whole body of each barbarian soldier, including the head and face, and only shows a pair of eyes. What is especially dazzling is that I don't know how the barbarians got it, those rattan armor was made golden yellow, and from a distance, it looked like some golden armor, and it was impossible to tell that it was woven from rattan at all.

Liu Yi was a little suspicious, if those thousands of rattan armor soldiers were killed, the pikemen in his army were afraid that they would not be able to pierce their rattan armor, including bows and arrows, they would not be able to penetrate those rattan armor. Even if you use a sword to cut it, you may not be able to break through the rattan armor. Because the rattan armor is elastic, if it is tough enough, I am afraid that Huang Quan's soldiers really can't help them.

Now I can't get rockets or anything like that for the time being, so it's hard to attack with fire.

"Mrs. Zhurong, are you barbarian rattan armor soldiers really invulnerable? Do you think that after you leave, those vine armor soldiers will kill you, how can we stop it? After thinking about it, Liu Yi thought that there was not a Mrs. Zhurong beside him? Just ask her if there's anything she can do to restrain herself.

"Humph! The barbarian rattan armor soldiers of our clan are invulnerable, and you can't stop them at all. Mrs. Zhurong raised her face a little proudly and said, "However, don't worry, Mrs. Ben won't let them attack you for a while." But you owe Mrs. Ben a favor. ”

"Well, well, I owe you two favors." Liu Yi was overjoyed when he heard it, and with Mrs. Zhurong's help, it would be easy to do. (To be continued......)
