The taste of the sword on his neck made Zhang Lu quite lose his soul, but Yan Pu, who was known as Zhang Lu's first strategist, saw that his master might be killed at any time, but he sat there drinking without changing his face, looking calm and calm.

Seeing that Yan Pu was so arrogant, Yang Huai said angrily: "Presumptuous! Don't stand up yet! ”

Yan Pu stretched his waist, and after standing up, he walked to Yang Huai's side with a smile and said, "General Yang said that General Zhang intends to rebel, but is there any evidence?" ”

"There will be evidence soon!"

"We'll see! It's just that I have to remind the general that if you can't come up with evidence, I'm afraid you will have to pay for General Ben to rebuild a Zhang Mansion! ”

At this time, Zhang's mansion was indeed a mess everywhere, and there were even soldiers with shovels digging three feet into the ground in the Zhangfu compound.

After searching for a long time, he still did not find any evidence, Yang Huai did not believe it, and simply asked Wu Yi to lead troops to guard Yang Song, Zhang Lu, Yan Pu and others, while he personally led troops to search.

After searching for a long time, they still did not find any useful evidence, and at this time, suddenly a soldier came to report that the lord had arrived.

But seeing Liu Zhang hurriedly come to the lobby with a group of entourage, he said, "General Yang, what's going on?" Didn't General Ben ask you and General Wu to put down the rebellion? How did you get here? ”

Before Yang Huai could answer, Zhang Lu hurriedly knelt on the ground and said very aggrievedly: "Lord Qi, I am about to go to the lord to denounce Yang Huai, he not only violated the lord's military order, but also dared to break through the city gate without authorization and led the army to search the mansion below. ”

"General Yang, what's going on?" Although Yang Huai is Liu Yan's very important minister, when encountering this situation, Liu Zhang must also ask clearly. Otherwise, he would not have been able to give an account to his men.

Yang Huai said: "He colluded with Zhao Wei and intended to rebel, the general who defended the city had already been bought by him, fortunately, there was Ling Bao to help him open the city gate, otherwise." I'm afraid the consequences are unimaginable! ”

After Liu Zhang looked at the young general in front of him, he said to him a little incredulously: "You opened the city gate alone?" ”

Ling Bao Hu's eyes blinked slightly, and he knelt down and said: "At that time, the matter was urgent, and I had already sensed that Liu Zhen intended to rebel, and I hope that the lord will investigate!" ”

Liu Zhang stretched out his hand to help Ling Bao and said, "General Ben didn't blame you!" It's just that even if Liu Zhen really intends to rebel, do you have any evidence to prove that he is General Zhang's person? ”

"This ......," Ling Bao was speechless for a while.

Liu Zhang said to Yang Huai again: "General Yang has searched until now, has he found any evidence?" ”

Yang Huai saw Liu Zhang asking calmly, and couldn't guess what he wanted to do with this matter for a while, so he said truthfully: "I haven't found it yet." Just ......"

"Don't just do it! If you don't find it, you can't find it, General Yang doesn't need to say more! ”

Hearing Liu Zhang say this, Yang Huai had to wait for Liu Zhang's "hair"! After all, he violated the military order first, and now he searched Zhang's mansion privately, these two crimes combined, Yang Huai estimated that from now on, he may no longer have a foothold in Yizhou.

But what surprised him was that Liu Zhang actually comforted Zhang Lu first, saying no matter what. He believed that he was a loyal minister, and then he said to Yang Huai: "Although you disobeyed the military order first. But you have successfully destroyed Liu Zhen, who intended to rebel, and you can be regarded as overpowering. As for you leading troops to search Zhang's mansion without the consent of General Ben, General Ben will punish you to pay for the rebuilding of Zhang's mansion, and in addition, deduct your worship for three months to make up for General Zhang's frightened losses. Do you have any objection to this? ”

Such a "punishment" really surprised Yang Huai. He hurriedly said, "The last general is willing to accept the punishment. ”

After Zhang Lu heard this, he almost vomited blood, but he couldn't say anything in front of Zhang Lu, after all, if Yan Pu hadn't let those dead soldiers hiding in an abandoned old mansion immediately give up their actions after learning that Liu Zhen had been killed, I'm afraid his life would be hanging by a thread now.

Besides, now a young general has been killed inexplicably. And he actually killed Liu Zhen with one shot, which shocked him. You must know that among the generals under his control, there are really few people who can kill Liu Zhen so easily.

Liu Zhang saw that Zhang Lu had no objections, and said to Yang Huai: "In the future, let the little general Ling Bao be a pioneer under your command!" With such a good general, General Yang must be trained well! Sooner or later, we will have a battle with the Namafu. ”

Yang Huai smiled: "The lord is wise! The last general heard that the horse groom was renamed Ma Bin, the word virtuous, according to the last general's opinion, no matter how he changed his name, he couldn't change his lowly life! ”

Liu Zhang laughed and said, "General Yang said this very well! No matter how arrogant he was, he also changed his life as a horse breeder. ”

After hearing this, Yang Bai, Yang Song, and Yan Pu all smiled reluctantly.

Yang Huai said: "Lord, now that Chengdu has been decided, the last general is willing to lead a team of men and horses to support General Wu, and the last general will make a military order here, if the rebellion cannot be quelled within three days, the last general is willing to come to see him!" ”

Liu Zhang said with a smile: "General Yang is naturally duty-bound, General Ben is waiting for your good news." It's just that now the people in Chengdu are also panicking, and General Ling Bao will stay with General Ben! ”

Yang Huai said: "It should be so. ”

And Ling Bao didn't expect that he would rise to the top, and hurriedly said: "Ling Bud must be with the lord at all times, and he will not give up!" ”

Just as Yang Huai was about to leave, Yan Pu made a face at Zhang Lu and Yang Song. Of course, Zhang Lu understood what he meant, as long as Yang Huai left Chengdu, they would have a chance.

However, as a veteran who has been "fighting" for many years, whether on the battlefield or in the officialdom, Yang Huai retreated after walking out of the lobby, and after he invited Liu Zhang aside and said so and so, he explained to Ling Bao again before leaving with confidence.

Zhang Lu originally thought that Liu Zhang would return to Liu's mansion immediately, but Liu Zhang suddenly walked to the desk and sat down and said, "General Ben has long been fascinated by the wine on this case, come on, come on, please take a seat!" With such a fine wine, how can you not taste it carefully? ”

Zhang Lu glanced outside the door, Ling Bao stood outside the door in good spirits, and Yang Huai brought the soldiers who searched his mansion, but he didn't take any of them away!

"What? Don't you want to taste this wine with General Ben? ”

Zhang Lu hurriedly said: "How dare you! How dare you! ”

Liu Zhang smiled: "In that case, please sit down!" I don't know where Madame is? Why don't you ask Madame to tell us about the art of ghosts and gods? Didn't you say last time that the essence she had worked on was the essence of thousands of dead soldiers? This time also happened to let General Ben see and understand! ”

Zhang Lu understood at this time, Liu Zhang clearly wanted to trap them here, but in the face of Liu Zhang and so many soldiers, he had to let his mother come out to "fool" Liu Zhang.

Before they knew it, they had been chatting for most of the day. The good news ahead is also frequent, first saying that the two generals Yang Huai and Wu Yi have defeated the main force of the rebels fifty miles south of Chengdu, and then saying that the two generals have killed Zhao Wei's subordinates Pang Le and Li Yi, and Zhao Wei also died in the chaos.

Hearing such news, Zhang Lu couldn't believe it at all, it was an army of tens of thousands, and it was so vulnerable! Fortunately, Yan Pu had already made two preparations for him, so that he would be reluctant to leave Zhao Yun, otherwise he would be afraid that it would be difficult for him to dissociate himself from this rebellion.

And Zhao Wei's killing is also an absolute good thing for him, which can be completely unproven.

When Liu Zhang heard that Yang Huai and Wu Yi had led the army back to the city, it was already the third watch, and at this time, Zhang Lu, Yan Pu, Yang Song and others were all drunk, and when Liu Zhang stood up, he suddenly sat down on the ground, which frightened Ling Bao, and he hurriedly stepped forward to help him up. And Zhang Lu, Yan Pu and Yang Song could only rejoice that they had finally gotten rid of this endless cycle of talking about ghosts and gods, drinking, talking about ghosts and gods, and drinking again......

After personally going to greet Yang Huai and Wu Yi, Liu Zhang's hanging heart finally landed, and after praising Yang Huai and Wu Yi, he hurriedly went home to rest.

In the hall, Zhang Meng, Zhao Yun, Zhao Ang, Yan Yan, Shisun Rui, Yin Feng, Yang Yue, Jiang Yin, Yao Qiong, Kong Xin, etc. all listened carefully to Guo Jia's analysis, although Ma Bin wanted to recuperate after taking Hanzhong, but the opportunity at the moment was really rare.

He now has only one goal, and that is to disperse the ......

It is said that the Great Scattered Pass is the pass of the Zhou Dynasty, so it is called the Scattered Pass. One of the four customs in China. It is located at the northern foot of the Qinling Mountains in the southern suburbs of Chencang, and has been the "throat of Sichuan and Shaanxi" since ancient times. According to historical records, there were more than 70 battles in Dasanguan. During the Qin and Han dynasties (206 BC), Liu Bang's "Ming Xiu Plank Road, Dark Chen Cang" passed through here; During the Three Kingdoms period, Cao Cao's westward expedition to Zhang Lu also passed through this place; According to Chen Shou's "Chronicles of the Three Kingdoms": "In the spring of the sixth year of Jianxing, Liang came back to Sanguan and surrounded Chen Cang, but Cao Zhen refused. "Sanguan is a very important strategic location and transportation hub. Lu You, a famous poet in the Southern Song Dynasty, wrote "Book Anger", one of which is "The building boat crosses the snow melon island at night, and the iron horse is scattered in the autumn wind". Because it chokes the throat of north-south traffic, it has been the "throat of Sichuan and Shaanxi" since ancient times, and the place where soldiers must fight.

Although the horseman after the soul piercing did not know whether Cao Cao's westward expedition to him would happen in the future, he knew that the key was to win the Great Scattered Pass in front of him. And the reason why Dasanguan has such a great temptation to the horseman is also because Guo Jia specifically mentioned the Dasanguan when he introduced the four passes of the Qinling Mountains in detail in front of the horseman. This is definitely a strategic position that can be attacked and retreated, and it is really a waste of Liu Zhang, who blindly sticks to Yizhou, to possess his unique strategic position...... (To be continued......)
