Two days later, Nanjiang City.

"It's coming!" Lei Tong said in a low voice, but saw a group of people coming from afar, but there were only hundreds of people. The first one did not wear armor, but only an ordinary brocade robe. didn't bring any big blades, only a long sword at his waist, it was Hanzhong Taishou, Zhao Feng and Zhao Botao.

"General Zhao, it's been hard all the way!" Meng Da stepped forward first and bowed to Zhao Feng, followed by Wu Lan and Lei Tong. "Brother Wu, the night is long and you have a lot of dreams, do you want to do it now?" Lei Tong asked in a low voice.

"No, there are so many people here watching, once you do it, won't it hurt the innocent, and it's hard to say anything in the chaos." Wu Lan looked at the people who were crowded around to see the excitement, not to mention that there were thousands of people, so it was obviously not suitable for him to do it here.

"I've been waiting for a long time!" Zhao Feng also smiled and stepped forward to reply. These three Meng Da only met once when they were in Chengdu, and Wu Lan and Lei Tong had some dealings after they settled in Hanzhong. Just looking at Meng Da's appearance, but seeing that his temperament is very elegant and his appearance is clear, he doesn't look like a repeat person, which makes Zhao Feng quite surprised.

But think about it, how can the real two or five boys look like a dignified face. Think about that big man who annihilated Wang, and he was actually one of the four beautiful men of the Republic of China. Compared with him, Meng Da's Taoism is really far behind.

"General Zhao is here, Nanjiang City is shining!" Meng Da said these unnutritious nonsense, and then began to introduce Zhao Feng to some of the people present today. In addition to Wu Lan and Lei Tong, some local figures in Nanjiang City also came, and Zhao Feng greeted them one by one.

Everyone surrounded Zhao Feng and the people under his command, and came to the Nanjiang City Mansion, which had already set up a banquet, and sat down as guests. Since Meng Da came to set up a banquet instead of Liu Zhang, he sat down on this throne. With his order, all kinds of dishes and rows of kaki dancers also came up, and for a while, the staggered schedule, the singing and dancing leveled out, and Meng Da helped to entertain, and the atmosphere was very warm.

From the last reception banquet in Chengdu and the Nanjiang banquet this time, Zhao Feng immediately came to the conclusion: If you talk about the ability to eat, drink and have fun, Liu Bei is not Liu Zhang's opponent at all!

"General Zhao, please!" Meng Da smiled and persuaded the wine. If you want to say that this is the ability to adjust the atmosphere and be good at dancing with long sleeves, Meng Da is far higher than Wu Lan and Lei Tong. These two obviously couldn't let go, although they were in the middle of the banquet, they often wandered and seemed absent-minded. Sometimes I smile when I see myself looking at them, but it makes them even more abnormal.

What Zhao Feng didn't know was that after Meng Da explained what happened to them yesterday, these two also had trouble sleeping. If these two people are also battle-hardened people, even if they don't do too much to set up ambushes and fight stuffy sticks on the battlefield, they have seen a lot. But this kind of Hongmen banquet is the first time, and it is very unprofessional. In addition, they knew that Zhao Feng was very good, and they knew that they might not be able to get Zhao Feng with their own skills, and they were even more bottomless in their hearts. Both of them are not very calm people, and they have no bottom in their hearts, and the anxiety on their faces is also expressed.

Meng Da, on the other hand, couldn't see any apprehension on his face at all, and even adjusted the atmosphere with ease. This is not surprising, if a two-five boy like him can't hold his breath like Wu Lan and Lei Tong, how can he act repeatedly. Under the vigorous promotion of Meng Da, the banquet entered a small ** from the beginning.

After three rounds of drinking, Meng Da put down the wine bottle in his hand, cleared his throat and said, "General Zhao is here, Meng Da and my lord are honored. Right now, the princes are here, and there is an important matter, which is just to take this opportunity to discuss with General Zhao. ”

"General Meng, but it doesn't hurt to say it!" Zhao Feng felt that Meng Da was almost time to launch, and he didn't move at the moment and said.

"Thanks to General Zhao's righteousness, he exterminated Zhang Lu's demon road for my lord. But the Duke of Shu is the pastor of Yizhou, and this Hanzhong belongs to the rule of Yizhou, and I also ask General Zhao to hand over Hanzhong to my lord as soon as possible! With that, Meng Da drank all the wine in the cup.

As soon as these words came out, the originally noisy banquet suddenly quieted down. Except for a few insiders, the locals who were invited to the banquet were unaware. Now seeing Meng Da suddenly say such words, people whose brains turned relatively quickly suddenly realized that today's banquet was not as simple as thanks.

Putting down the wine glass in his hand, Zhao Feng said slowly: "Since the Duke of Shu has this intention, he should have complied with it. However, Zhao is currently the Taishou of Hanzhong, doesn't Duke Shu want me Zhao to dismiss someone? ”

"Uncle Liu Huang knows how to make good use of people, General Zhao is under Uncle Huang, why don't you have the opportunity to show your ambitions?" Meng Da replied with a smile.

"But the ownership of the land of Hanzhong is related to the plan of my lord's Northern Expedition. Unless it is my father-in-law's consent, Zhao will never dare to evacuate Hanzhong without authorization! Zhao Feng said lightly, but his tone was extremely resolute. When the people heard this, they knew that there was no room for negotiation.

"In this case, according to the will of the Duke of Shu, I can only ask the general to go to Chengdu to discuss!" After Meng Da said this, he threw the wine glass in his hand to the ground. The sword and axe hands that had already been ambushed immediately poured out, and more than 100 people were waiting for them, and the swords were unsheathed, surrounding Zhao Feng and Niu Jin and other people from Hanzhong in the core.

"Niu Jin, it's okay, put the knife away!" Zhao Feng motioned to Niu Jin to put the knife back into the sheath, slowly stood up, poured a glass of wine in his hand, and slowly walked to the center of the hall. Everyone was not nervous when they saw him trapped in the sword, and they all secretly admired him in their hearts: no wonder he was able to become famous all over the world at a young age, and he was so courageous.

"General Meng, the reason why I, Zhao Botao, marched into Hanzhong, one is to avenge the revenge of my lord in the past, and the other is to remove the big trouble for the Duke of Shu. When I sat in Hanzhong, it was also agreed between the Duke of Shu and the head of my family. After Zhao sat in Hanzhong, he never had any involvement in Xichuan, and even ceded this Nanjiang City to the Duke of Shu. Why does the Duke of Shu want me to quit Hanzhong? It's not negotiable if you really want to quit, why don't you send an envoy to Shouchun to discuss with my lord, but set up a Hongmen banquet here. is so treacherous, are the people of Xichuan so ungrateful? Zhao Feng said slowly, as if he didn't care about the swords that were close at hand. His voice was so high-pitched that everyone in the hall could hear him clearly. After hearing this, many officials in Xichuan felt that their faces were gloomy.

"General Zhao is not strange, Meng Da doesn't want to do this, but my lord insists on taking back Hanzhong, so he has to do this, please forgive the general!" Meng Da said with a "embarrassed" face.

Zhao Feng knew that now he and Meng Da were acting. Although Meng Da has the heart to join Liu Bei, and is ready to fight against him with him. But if the bottom is revealed so quickly, so that people can see at a glance that you said that you colluded in advance, then Meng Da himself will inevitably be saddled with the notoriety of being a traitor seeking glory, which he does not want. So now, Zhao Feng needs to build a ladder for him, so that he can get away from Liu Zhang with dignity. At that time, people will only say that he understands the righteousness, not a traitor to seek glory.

"So, General Meng doesn't want to be our enemy?" Zhao Feng asked deliberately.

"Hugh said I don't want to, no one here wants to be an enemy of the general. I hate that Huang Quan and Zhang Ren, for their own selfishness, they went against the sky, instigating the Duke of Shu and the general to be enemies, I can't help it! Meng Da sighed. Hearing Meng Da's words, Wu Lan and Lei Tong couldn't help but nod silently.

"General Meng, General Wu, and General Lei, the three are also well-known figures in Xichuan. Now that the Duke of Shu has been deceived by the annihilation of the people, he has done such a thing. The Duke of Shu and the lord of my family are brothers of the same clan, and they also worked together when they attacked Zhang Lu before. Even if there is a misunderstanding now, I think I can always tell it clearly. Why don't the three of them put their heads down for the time being, and wait for the misunderstanding to be resolved, and then make plans? If the three of them do something wrong on the spur of the moment, then the account can only be borne by the three of them! ”

Zhao Feng's words were soft and hard, and the current meaning was that the three of you couldn't afford the crime of turning your face with Liu Bei. This is not only him, but even Meng Da and Wu Lan and Lei Tong are very clear. Meng Da didn't want to be an enemy of Liu Bei at all, and Wu Lan and Lei Tong were not full of food, so they were very hesitant when they heard this. The difference is that Wu Lan and Lei Tong are really hesitant, and Meng Da is pretending to hesitate. As for the rest, they are at a loss and can only wait and see.

Just when the atmosphere was depressed, I saw a person hurrying to the door of the hall, seeing that the dress was a small colonel who was delivering a letter, and seeing the posture of the swords in the hall, he was trembling and didn't know what to do. Meng Da hurriedly ordered someone to call him and ask him what was the matter.

"The lord is in a hurry!" The man trembled and handed a letter to Meng Da, Meng Da opened it and looked at it, but it was Liu Zhang who urged him to kill Zhao Feng as soon as possible, and then immediately converged with Jia Meng's 20,000 Sichuan troops who closed Wu Lan and Lei Tong, and rushed to Hanzhong. After the deed is accomplished, there will be a great reward; If things fail, come and see you. Meng Da said angrily after reading it: "In the face of Zhang Lu, I have blindly endured and retreated for more than ten years, and there is nothing I can do; In the face of the Allies, but so aggressive, will En take revenge? Although I, Meng Da, am not talented, such a mediocre lord does not bother to protect it! With that, he threw the letter on the ground, resentful.

Wu Lan frowned and picked it up, but also shook her head and sighed, very disappointed in Liu Zhang; After Lei Tong saw it, he sat down and stopped talking. The rest of the people at the banquet circulated it one after another, and they also sighed. Everyone felt that Liu Zhang's words were really inauthentic. Zhao Feng noticed that Meng Da, who was the first to be indignant, had a glimmer of light flashing in the depths of his eyes.

This letter, drafted by Zhang Song instead of Liu Zhang, eventually became the final fuse that aroused everyone's dissatisfaction with Liu Zhang. Meng Da saw that the time was ripe, and immediately said loudly: "Everyone, Shu Gong is unjust, and he will take revenge, and I, Meng Da, don't want to be that ungrateful." Now Uncle Liu Huang is sitting in the land of Wuzhou, treating people with benevolence and righteousness, recruiting talents, why don't we give up this mediocre lord and go to Uncle Liu Huang? ”

"That's right!" Many of the guests nodded, and Wu Lan and Lei Tong looked at each other and really didn't rush to make a statement. At this time, it was Zhao Feng's turn to speak, he cleared his throat, and Zhao Feng said first: "It's rare for you to understand the righteousness so well, and Zhao is grateful." My lord recruits talents from all over the world, and you are all heroes in Sichuan, so why not show your ambitions? ”

Nanjiang is on the front line of the war between Hanzhong and Xichuan, how dare the big families put their family business here, and these local wealthy families who are attending the banquet today are just some well-off families, even if they are officials, they cannot be reused, and they cannot be any big officials. After listening to Zhao Feng's words, he suddenly felt that his career was promising, and his mood suddenly became lively.

After a while, one of them spoke: "Everyone, the Duke of Shu is unjust, and he will take revenge, I am willing to serve Uncle Liu Huang and live up to what I have learned in my life." Zhao Feng recognized this person, it was Nanjiang County Ling Fei Shi, who was known for his eloquence, similar to Jiang Gan. This person Zhao Feng still has some images, in the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, he went to replace Liu Bei to canonize Guan Yu as the general of the Five Tigers. At that time, Guan Erye was a little unhappy, and it was all up to him to persuade him. can convince the arrogant Second Master Guan that this guy really has a mouth.

As soon as Fei Shi opened his mouth, the rest of the people stopped working for this Liu Zhang, and now under the leadership of the "righteous and awe-inspiring" Meng Da, they announced their separation from Liu Zhang and switched to Liu Bei. Zhao Feng looked at the people who were instantly backwatering, and sighed secretly in his heart. This Liu Zhang really made Shuzhong angry, and now there are dozens of people here, and there is not even a single one who is loyal to him.

Not to mention that Meng Da and Zhao Feng are secretly happy in their hearts, but this superficial article still has to be done. At the moment, Zhao Feng came forward to vouch, and these people defected to Liu Bei in the future, and the benefits would never be less than now. After some pacification, everyone also put down most of their hearts, and then went back one after another with peace of mind, leaving only Zhao Feng and Meng Da, as well as Wu Lan, Lei Tong and Fei Shi and other five people.

"Four, it's rare that four of you understand the righteousness so well, Feng Zidang should explain this matter in front of my father-in-law. It's just that now the Duke of Shu has turned against us, I don't know if you have any good ways to deal with it? At this point, Zhao Feng no longer hides anything. Now that it's been reversed, let's find out. The so-called response, which is still a more polite statement, is actually how to deal with Liu Zhang.

"General Zhao, there were originally 20,000 defenders in Jiameng Pass, and I only left 2,000 people to guard the pass today, and the rest were transferred to this Nanjiang City for the sake of today's affairs. In addition, Da Yi brought thousands of soldiers and horses, plus the general's Hanzhong military horses, why don't we take the opportunity to raise troops to Chengdu and ask for the guilt? Unlike Wu Lan and Lei Tong, Meng Da quickly adapted to his role as a surrenderer, and even began to make plans for a counteroffensive.

"That's right, I have sent someone Pegasus to inform my lord, and ask him to send troops from Jingzhou to attack Chengdu together!" Zhao Feng thought for a while. Seeing that Zhao Feng had already done this, the four of them knew that it was difficult to give up on this matter at the moment, and they had no turning back from the bow, so they could only accompany him all the way.

"The guard of Jia Meng Pass is my deputy general, I'll take Jia Meng Pass first!" Wu Lan thought about it and said, and immediately led the soldiers and horses of the headquarters, converged the 3,000 troops brought by Zhao Feng, and Meng Dana's 3,000 troops, and merged them to kill at Jiameng Pass.

"Huh?" rushed to a place not far from Jiameng Pass, but saw that the flag on the city was silent, and there was no trace of anyone, Wu Lan was also very puzzled. drove the horse forward to the gate, and Wu Lan also shouted: "I'm Wu Lan, open the city gate quickly!" ”

"Hahahaha, how slow General Wu came!" With this burst of arrogant laughter, flags and guards suddenly appeared on the originally silent Guancheng, and the two generals also laughed. At the same time, more than 100 bows and crossbows were aimed at Wu Lan and fired arrows in unison, and the latter was shot into a hedgehog before he could let out a scream.
