Chapter 736: The Rebel Trio
Chapter 736: The Rebel Trio (First Update)
With such a crossbow bed, of course Kou Feng had to test it.
So, Kou Feng came to the military camp outside the city. The crossbow bed was placed first, and then two pieces of leather armor were found and placed in front of them.
With the operation of the soldiers, the two pieces of leather armor were pierced by huge arrows. If it hits head-on, even armor will be difficult to resist.
Moreover, it is still ten consecutive shots.
The only flaw is that it takes four people to operate.
Still, Kou Feng felt very satisfied. He was rewarded for the craftsman who developed the repeater bed. And, like the crossbow of the Chu State, it was ordered to be built on a large scale.
It is necessary to build more than 500 crossbow beds before entering Shu in winter.
Just between Jing Chu, when the knife is sharpened. Yizhou Liu Zhang's mood is not very good.
The full pet is actually missing. At the beginning, Liu Zhang didn't care, after all, Liu Zhang's purpose for coming to the full favor was also a little clear. It's just because Cao Gong valued his Wei knife as a sharp weapon, and he didn't dare to resist Cao Cao.
Liu Zhang also let Man Pet go. In my heart, I also thought that with such a complex terrain in Xichuan, it is impossible for a person to remember it all.
Therefore, no one was sent to monitor Manpet.
However, the full pet has been missing for several months and has not yet appeared. Liu Zhang began to wonder. Immediately dispatched a quantity to look for it in Yizhou.
Months to no avail. This made Liu Zhang panic.
Additional manpower was sent to search for it. But Kou Feng's group of soldiers were professional, buried the corpses, and knocked out the carriage. All evidence of the existence of the full pet is gone.
It seems that the full pet has not appeared in Shudi. How does this make Liu Zhang's mood good?
In addition, Zhang Song went north and did not return for several months. This made Liu Zhang's mood even worse.
On this day, Liu Zhang had breakfast. I'm going to go to the study and sit down. But I heard a guard walk in outside the door, "Lord, Zhang Beijia is back." ”
"Oh? Hurry up and please. Liu Zhang said happily. There has been no news for several months, and he suddenly came back, how can Liu Zhang not be happy?
Wei Ying promised and quickly walked out.
A moment later, Zhang Song walked in with a few attendants diagonally.
"My lord." Zhang Song bowed. There is no strangeness in the look, and it is still the same.
"Ziqiao, hurry up." Liu Zhang stepped forward to help Zhang Song.
Whether it is the demeanor or the tone, it is very gentle. made Zhang Song feel a little guilty in his heart, but then it was swept away.
Generosity is suitable for prosperous times, and it is fatal to have this character in troubled times.
Song Ying promised and straightened up.
Immediately, Liu Zhang and Zhang Song sat down together. Zhang Song instructed the attendants behind him and brought the four treasures over.
"Lord, this is the seal letter, ribbon, marquis, and edict given by Cao Cao." Zhang Song introduced.
"Is it true that the Marquis of Shu?" Liu Zhang's eyes were filled with joy, and he asked with some trembling. If he is a king today, only he is moved, but he does not dare to be a marquis.
Now that the imperial court has officially sealed the Marquis of Shu, how can Liu Zhang not be happy?
"Indeed, the Marquis of Shu." Zhang Song smiled slightly and nodded.
"Okay, okay." Liu Zhang couldn't stop applauding, and he was overjoyed.
It took a long time for Liu Zhang to regain his composure. Immediately, he glanced at Zhang Song, slightly embarrassed.
"By the way, how is Cao Gongqi?" After a while, Liu Zhang regained his mood and couldn't help asking.
"This." Zhang Song couldn't help but groan, and then sighed: "Cao Gong is a hero, and he is a troublemaker. ”
Is this a compliment to Cao Cao?
Liu Zhang's face changed when he heard this, and he asked, "Is that really the case?" ”
"That's true." Zhang Song nodded and affirmed.
"Well, I know. This person helped me Wei Dao, just to use my strength to resist Kou Feng. And what kindness? In troubled times, there is no one who does not want to annex others. Kou Feng is, and so is Cao Mengde. It's just that I don't know how Kou Feng is compared to Cao Mengde? Liu Zhang sighed and said.
"Kou Feng this person, although the minister has never seen it. But this time, after returning from the north, Jing Chu was specially left. found that the territory under his rule, the population was no worse than Cao Cao, and they were all difficult characters to deal with. Originally, Zhang Song planned to talk about some situations where Jing Chu was completely unprepared for war and deceive Liu Zhang.
But suddenly remembered Kou Feng's words.
"Even if Liu Zhang is on guard, under normal circumstances. Lonely can also easily go down to Yizhou. In his mind, Kou Feng's high-spirited words came to mind.
Therefore, Zhang Song simply did the opposite. On the one hand, it is said that Cao Cao's side is very good, and on the other hand, it is also said that Kou Feng is not bad at all.
Let Liu Zhang disperse the deployment of troops into two directions. On the one hand, we should guard against the north, and on the other hand, we should guard against the east.
"Hey, this Shuhou is really difficult to be." Liu Zhang fell silent when he heard this, and said with a wry smile.
At present, Yizhou's troop deployment is one north and one east. Defend Zhang Lu and Kou Feng respectively. In addition, there were also Nanban rebellions in the south, and some troops were dispersed, as well as rebellions held from time to time by the big names in the state, and there were still some troops in Chengdu.
It's really an enemy on all sides.
There was silence in the room, and soon after, Zhang Song got up to take his leave. Liu Zhang didn't keep it, and let Zhang Song go down to rest.
After leaving the Assassin's Mansion, Zhang Song got into the carriage, looked at the sky, and said to the coachman: "Go to the Faxiao Mansion." ”
After the husband promised, he immediately drove the carriage to the Fazheng Mansion.
During these days, the Fa is becoming much more profound. For rebellion is a secret matter. If you are not careful, you may harm yourself.
In this regard, Fa Zheng is much more cautious than Zhang Song.
On this day, Fa Zheng was studying at home. I heard that Zhang Song came back and asked to see him in person.
couldn't help but put down the book and muttered: "Zhang Ziqiao has always admired Cao Gong, and when he goes to the north to meet Cao Gong, he may fall in love at first sight." Maybe you're here to discuss with me about countermeasures. ”
Thinking about it, Fa Zheng couldn't help but feel a little helpless. But as a last resort, he waved his hand and said, "Please come in." ”
The man said yes and walked out.
Soon after, Zhang Song walked in.
"Ziqiao."
"Filial piety."
Although the two had their own selfish intentions before, they were also friendly. It's also very natural to meet at this moment. After greeting each other, Fa Zheng invited Zhang Song to sit down, and he himself sat down.
"Ziqiao just returned to Chengdu, and he came to see me, I don't know what the big deal is?" Fa Zheng asked with a smile.
But Zhang Song didn't answer, but looked at Fa Zheng. I remembered Kou Feng's explanation in my heart, Fa Zheng has a strange plan, and everything must be discussed with Fa Zheng before he can act. Worry-free.
In the past, although Zhang Song knew that Fa Zheng was talented, he did not attach so much importance to it. But today, it's different. From Kou Feng's few words, Zhang Song knew that Fa Zheng must have been in contact with Kou Feng.
didn't meet Cao Cao and Kou Feng, the two heroes, and knew that it was right to invest in Kou Feng. This proves that Fazheng's gaze is indeed profound, much more profound than his.
"The old man is friendly with Xiaozhi, but it wasn't until recently that he admired Xiaozhi very much." Zhang Song sighed and said.
"Why did Ziqiao say this?" Fa Zheng is a little inexplicable.
"The old man has seen the Duke of Chu, and presented the mountains and rivers of Shu, as well as the distribution map of troops." Zhang Song sighed and said.
Fa Zheng's face couldn't help but change, on the one hand, Zhang Song claimed to have seen Kou Feng and came to see him, so it can be seen that Kou Feng also told him about it.
And Zhang Song was originally a Cao faction. But then, Fazheng returned to normal, and there was joy.
Mountains and rivers are dangerous, and the distribution of troops is a map. Since Zhang Song gave such a treasure to Kou Feng, it proves that Zhang Song has also changed from Cao to Chu.
"I know that Ziqiao has the ability to never forget, so I guess that Ziqiao may have such treasures. But why was it suddenly dedicated to the Duke of Chu? Fa Zheng asked with a slight puzzlement.
"Duke Cao treats the old man like a mortal, but Duke Chu is very kind. Moreover, Duke Cao is old, and Duke Chu is in the prime of life. Zhang Song said a little vicissitudes.
Going to the north, from descending to Cao, it is really difficult to explain.
Of course, Fa Zheng couldn't feel Zhang Song's mood, but he nodded at Zhang Song's reason. Duke Cao is old, and Duke Chu is not even in the prime of life.
It's just young.
In Fa Zheng's view, the biggest gap between Cao Cao and Kou Feng is here.
"Ziqiao can see through this on his own, which is really commendable." Fa Zheng exclaimed. From a die-hard Cao, to self-transformation.
Zhang Song is also a masterpiece.
Zhang Song smiled bitterly, if it weren't for Cao Cao's head to drink the stick, how could he see through this. Therefore, Fa Zheng is the real person with far-reaching wisdom.
"Let's not talk about that yet." Zhang Song shook his head, not wanting to talk about these things anymore. After a pause, he said solemnly: "The old man is in Chu, seeing that the soldiers of Chu are strong and strong, the Duke of Chu said that around winter, he will raise a large army to attack Shudi." I don't know what good way to help Chu Gong? ”
Fa Zheng shook his head and sighed, "My status is low, and my position is also low. Nothing can help. And although Ziqiao has a respected status, he has little power. In military affairs, they can't help the Duke of Chu. However, speaking of this, Fa Zheng raised his head, his eyes flashed, and said, "However, Meng Da can." ”
"Mengda?" Zhang Song groaned. He knew that Meng Da was a sworn friend of Fazheng, and only Fazheng was the first to look forward.
At present, he is a young general, and there are about more than 1,000 soldiers and horses.
"I wonder if Ziqiao told Liu Yizhou about the Chu State?" Fa Zheng nodded and asked again.
"As I said, the soldiers are strong and the horses are strong." Zhang Song nodded.
"It's sane." Fa Zheng nodded, and then, said with a smile: "If you say to Liu Zhang that Chu's defense is lax, the defense is not happy." I'm afraid that it will arouse suspicion, and then it will be troublesome. ”
Zhang Song smiled bitterly when he heard this, this was what Kou Feng taught him. If it weren't for Kou Feng, after he came back, he would definitely brag to Liu Zhang that the power of Chu was not very good.
Liu Zhang must be skeptical.
"That's just right. It is precisely because the soldiers of the State of Chu are strong and strong that we must expand our forces. And Ziqiao is respected. It just happened that Meng Da could be recommended as a lieutenant and ordered him to recruit 5,000 soldiers to guard Deyang. As long as the army of the Duke of Chu enters Shu, it can act at the opportunity. Make meritorious deeds again. Fa Zheng's face was full of spirit, and he said with a smile.
Song pondered for a moment, and nodded with a smile.
In wartime, everything that is respected by status is fake, and only by holding military power can the situation be cheapened. You can make a contribution. In this regard, Fa Zheng also sees it very clearly and does things very precisely.
The summer of the seventeenth year of Jian'an.
Liu Zhang was outside the city of Chengdu, worshipping heaven and earth, and claiming Shu with the founding of the country. followed Zhang Song's advice, made Meng Da a captain, and recruited 5,000 troops to guard Deyang.
The civil and military officials have their own rewards, and they are also tolerant of the powerful families in Shu, and more than ten people are recruited as officials.
At this point, the heart of the Shu sergeant clan has been slightly gathered. Rebellions decreased. The national strength has become stronger.
