Chapter 377 Guan Gong wanted to test Zhang Zizhong, and the Son of Heaven repatriated Ma Mengqi

Speaking of Zhang Ren.

Because he carried Zhao Tong's customs clearance disc, he traveled all the way west unimpeded.

On this day, they came to Luoyang.

The city gate guard officials who had already taken care of him read the disc, and sent someone to welcome Zhang Ren into the post house on the one hand, and sent someone to Zhao Yun's mansion to deliver a letter on the other.

The soldiers and horses of Kyoto Rongcheng are under the jurisdiction of the general's office.

General Guan Yu, Hussar General Zhang Fei, Che Cavalry General Yan Liang, Weicai General Wen Chou, New Former General Zhang Liao, New Zuo General Zhang Jaw, New Zhenxi General Ma Chao, New Zhenbei General Wei Yan and others are teaching martial arts exercises.

On the field, Guan Chengcheng competed with Ma Chao.

Ma Chao has been forced by Guan Gong to gradually retreat, and he is gradually overwhelmed!

Seeing Ma Chao retreating, Guan Gong put away his knife and stood, stroked his beard, and said with a smile: "Meng Qi's marksmanship has improved again!" You have already fought under the old man's knife and see that the strength is weak, which makes the old man deeply gratified! When he returns to Liangzhou, presumably Xu Gongming will bow down! ”

"The general has won the prize." Ma Chao wiped his sweat and said to Guan Yu.

Zhang Fei in the audience shouted: "Second brother, the sergeant of the city gate has come to report, saying that Zhang Ren, the king of Xichuan spears, has arrived!" ”

"Oh?! Zilong's senior brother? But I don't know which one is more than him or Zilong?! Guan Yu couldn't help asking.

Wen Chou smiled and quipped: "The two have fought each other, don't you know?" ”

Guan Yu said: "Zilong's marksmanship is exquisite, and it is difficult to distinguish between you and me!" I am equivalent to an official of the court, and I can't fight with all my might! But this is an opportunity! ”

As soon as he heard that Guan Yu had the idea of competing with Zhang Yi, Yan Liang hurriedly stopped him and said, "Yun Chang can't!" ”

Among the crowd, only Yan Liang and Wen Chou dared to sing against him! It's just that because of the friendship between his brother and the two, Guan Yu had to give him three points.

Today, everyone is in front of them, and Yan Liang has spoken out to stop him.

Guan Gong was very displeased, and said coldly: "Why did Gong Ji say this? ”

Since the capture of the city by horse, Guan Gong's arrogance has grown day by day.

Ma Chao entered Beijing to report on his work, and he invited him to fight in the school field, and he fought for days!

If it weren't for His Majesty's face, he would have wanted to fight with him a long time ago, right!?

In the face of Guan Gong's displeasure, Yan Liang said: "The god of brother is famous in the world since Feng Li's battle. Let's look at today, if Your Majesty doesn't come out, who will you be?! Even the younger brother, not handsome and Yide, are also inferior! Why should Zhang Ren be concerned? However, Zhang Ren was involved too much, Xichuan Cao thief, and tens of thousands of soldiers in Badong...... These are far more important than the battle for the public! ”

After being complimented by Yan Liang, Guan Gong's face was soothed, and after pondering for a moment, Fang confessed to Yan Liang: "What Gong Ji said is very true, he is rash for his brother, I hope I will forgive me!" ”

"My own brother, don't talk about it!" Wen Chou and Zhang Fei laughed on the side, and then let the generals disperse, dragging the two to find a place to drink.

Yan Liang's words woke up Guan Yu.

In fact, it also pushed Guan Yu to a higher position.

If your majesty doesn't come out, who will you be?!

That means that in addition to Liu Bei, the number one person in the world is you Guan Yu!

Yan Liang is also very humble and thinks that he is inferior to him!

Even Wen Chou and Zhang Fei are not as good as him, so Zhang Fei can say for the time being, it was his second brother, so it would be better to do it!

What about Wen Chou"? has always been good friends with Yan Liang, and when he saw Yan Liang say this, he acquiesced! After all, he thought that he couldn't easily defeat Guan Yu!

Therefore, Yan Liang's praise made Guan Yu even more fluttering!

I heard that Zhang Ren, the king of the Xichuan spear, has arrived.

Zhao Yun and Chen Zhi did not go immediately, but got up and entered the palace to face the saint.

Why is that?

Although the two guessed Zhang Ren's intention, they didn't know what the attitude of Liu Bei, the son of heaven, was on this matter?

This is related to the suspicion of fornication with the enemy country!

However, their worries, although not exaggerated, are also somewhat unnecessary!

In the palace at this time, there were two people standing in front of Liu Beilong, the Son of Heaven, Xu Shu and Zhuge Liang.

On the embroidery pier on the side is also sitting an old, old imperial history lord Chen Gong. Chen Gong is now more than seventy years old, and the civil official system is not as good as the military generals in any way; Old Huang Zhong is still looking for Guan Yu to compete now?

Especially after learning that Guan Yu had captured the city, Lao Huang Zhong rushed to Guanfu to congratulate him.

Guan Yu was overjoyed.

Lao Huang Zhong immediately proposed a competition.

Guan Gong in this life has little contempt for this veteran in his life, but more sympathy!

Therefore, there is also a good story in the capital!

Later, Lao Huang Zhong saw that the Son of Heaven had repeatedly sent troops to ignore him, and he wanted to fight; However, Gao Shun and others dissuaded them, jointly resigned, and returned to their hometown!

Liu Bei, the son of heaven, saw that his sons and heirs were all officials in the court, so he built a pension pavilion for the veterans to enjoy on weekdays, rewarded them with gold, silver and jewelry, and allowed them to return home.

But seeing that Lao Chen Gong was the same age as himself but still working in the court, Huang Zhong was always uncomfortable, so he often made sarcastic remarks. Chen Gong smiled and said: "A certain non-prime minister, and you are not an honest general, why is this so?" ”

At this point, Huang Zhongcai did not embarrass Chen Gong.

At this time, what will the Son of Heaven discuss with the three old ministers?

It turned out that they were also discussing the intention of Zhang Ren's arrival.

Zhuge Liang said: "Zhang Zizhong is here, and he will bear the meaning of the generals of Badong!" Cao Angxing soldiers in the south, if Sima Yi subdued the barbarians, the old general of Xichuan would have to rebel! They are bound to find a way out! ”

"After the spy reported that Zhang Xiu and Zhang Renshi's brothers recognized each other, they were ready to send someone to Chengdu to persuade Sima Yi to help rescue Liu Zhang and those family members in Chengdu! This strategy is not the same! The situation is not good! Lao Chen Gong also said on the side.

"Chen Qing, do you have a good plan to help?" The Son of Heaven asked.

Chen Gong said: "Now that the Southern Barbarians are decided, Sima Yi will definitely be completely reused by Cao Ang for this great achievement!" At this time, they intend to connect with Sima Yi, which is bound to be self-defeating! Your Majesty should summon Zhang Ren as soon as possible, and take advantage of the stakes to prevent this from happening! ”

The Son of Heaven nodded and said, "It's okay!" ”

"Your Majesty, General Zhao Yun and Chen will go to the general's palace to ask for a meeting!" The palace gate guards entered the palace to report.

The Son of Heaven looked at the three old ministers and smiled: "These two came in time!" ”

"Yes! It's great that they're here! Xu Shu and the three of them catered at the same time.

The Son of Heaven smiled and commanded, "Pass! ”

"Spread Zhao Yun and Chen to enter the temple to face the saint!" The guards at the gate of the temple pronounced the decree aloud.

After a short time, Zhao Yun and Chen Zhi entered in front of Liu Bei and bowed in front of Liu Bei: "Your Majesty, long live my emperor, long live, long live!" ”

"Wait for the peace."

"Thank you, Lord Long." After Zhao Yun and Chen thanked the two, they stood under the hands of Zhuge Liang and Xu Shu.

"Can the two Aiqing enter the palace with a book??" Liu Bei asked.

Zhao Yun took a step forward, bowed down and said: "Back to Your Majesty, the minister heard that Senior Brother Zhang Ren has arrived at the Kyoto Post Station, and he wanted to go to see him, but Senior Brother Chen belonged to Cao Thief, and the minister did not dare to go without permission!" Therefore, please Your Majesty! ”

"Haha, Zilong! You two have followed me for so many years, and I know that you are loyal. However, you have done me a favor by coming to pay tribute to me! Chen Lao Aiqing, I thought that this fashion was not the time to summon Zhang Ren. Xichuan is unclear, the emperor's brother Liu Zhang is subject to Cao thief, I have to be careful! What was discussed, let Zilong and Shuzhi tell Zhang Ren? ”

"Your Majesty is wise, so very good!" Chen Gong responded.

"In this case, Lao Aiqing will go to the post house with the two of him, let Zhang Ren rush back to Xichuan as soon as possible, and make plans early!" Liu Bei commanded.

"Obey." Chen Gong agreed.

Not to mention that accompanied by Zhao Yun and Chen Zhi, Chen Gong went to see Zhang Ren.

But after they left, Zhuge Liang and Xu Shu offered advice to Liu Bei again.

"Your Majesty, now is the best time to attack Xichuan, and it is the best policy to use troops as soon as possible!" Zhuge Liang stepped forward and said.

Liu Bei looked at Zhuge Liang, then at Xu Shu, and saw that Xu Shu also nodded, so he asked: "Although the old general of Xichuan intends to surrender, Han Sui and Deng Ai are holding the dangerous pass, but it is not a work that can be broken for a while!" What's more, Sima Yi's pacification of the Nanban is about to be completed, and the secret agent letter reports that there is little loss! It can be seen that they have reached some form of alliance with the Nanban, rather than pacification! ”

Zhuge Liang explained: "It is precisely because of this that the minister proposed to attack Xichuan!" ”

"Why is that?" Liu Bei asked puzzled.

"If Sima Yi obtains an alliance with Nanban, he will inevitably be difficult for Badong and even Zhang Xiu in Bazhong at the first time! At that time, my army is far away in Xiangyang, how can I help? For today's plan, the only way is to make Meng Qi return to Xiliang as soon as possible and raise troops to attack Tianshui! Ling Shiyuan raised an army to attack the valley! The war in the north has made it impossible to take care of Padang, so our army can take this opportunity to enter Sichuan along the way!" Zhuge Liang said.

"Yes, Your Majesty! The entrance to the east of Sichuan was originally in Jingzhou, and the war in the north was enough to confuse the enemy. Xu Shu also said on the side.

Liu Bei was overjoyed when he heard this.

The next day, Liu Bei summoned Ma Chao, the general of Zhenxi.

*(Here we have corrected one of the previous settings.) In the previous document, Coffee set the Liangzhou Soldiers and Horses Governor as Ma Xiu, highlighting Ma Xiu's all-round characteristics of civil and military affairs. But after discussing it with some friends, I thought it was not appropriate. In this era of Confucian culture, the order of the young and the old cannot be messed up! So, coffee makes a correction here. The governor of Liangzhou is Ma Chao, and Ma Xiu is only a general in Liangzhou)

The knowledge and understanding level of coffee still need to be improved, please Haihan! *

After learning from Ma Chao about the situation in Beijing, Liu Bei said to Ma Chao: "Aiqing, now that the war in Xichuan is important, I hope that you can return to Liangzhou as soon as possible and drive troops to attack Tianshui!" ”

"Please rest assured, Your Majesty, the minister will return to the cool immediately!" Ma Chao agreed.

Liu Bei instructed again: "Although Han Sui is old, he should not be underestimated!" When you return to Liangzhou this time, you need to be careful! I have already sent an edict to Pang Shiyuan in Chang'an, ordering him to use troops against Xiegu first! How to use troops after you return to Liangzhou still needs to be arranged according to the actual situation! ”

"Your Majesty's teachings!" After Ma Chao finished speaking, Shane left.

Another round of war has begun, I don't know how Cao Ang in Chengdu will react and how to deal with the current situation?

Sima Yi and Cao Zhen's troops have already won the victory of pacifying the Nanban! The barbarian king led a large army and immediately went to the wild land, and followed them into the middle of the river!

What's next?
