Wei Yan's evaluation of Meng Da is quite low, but this is also in line with Meng Da's impression in Fang Shao's heart. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

In history, this person first rebelled against Liu Zhang, then Liu Bei, and then Cao Pi, and his reputation was no better than that of Lu Bu, who was known as the "three-surnamed domestic slave".

The first time he rebelled against Liu Zhang, he rebelled, and took the initiative to seduce Liu Bei into Sichuan and betray his old master's foundation.

The second time he rebelled against Liu Bei, he rebelled, and he also took the Wei soldiers to fight back and take away the three eastern counties of the Han State.

As for the third time, not to mention, after the fall of Wei, Cao Pi treated Meng Da as a pamper, but as soon as Cao Pi died, Meng Da and Zhuge Liang eyebrows, intending to rebel against Wei and return to Han, but the deeds were revealed before the head fell to the ground.

In this chaotic era, although there are many examples of people choosing their masters, there are very few examples like Meng Da.

With such a person, how good can Fang Shao's impression of him be.

"Well, Wen Chang's words are reasonable, Zidu's personality is indeed the same, now that filial piety is deceased, Qin Yishi is said to be a river, I think Mencius will be able to see it, if he knows the benefits and harms, and makes a promise, I don't believe that his head will not be able to turn around."

Fang Shao made up his mind and turned his gaze to everyone: "If you follow the strategy of Wen Chang, you need a person who can speak well to go to Jingcheng to persuade Mencius, but this matter needs to take some risks, I don't know which one dares to take a risk." ”

At this time, no one answered, not that these people were timid, but compared with such a risk of "sheep into the tiger's mouth", they would rather swing on the battlefield and lick the blood from the knife.

Seeing that no one answered, Fang Shao's expression was slightly displeased, and his gaze swept over everyone's faces like electricity, and finally landed on one person.

It was a middle-aged man, Nanyang Xinsavage, a purebred Jingxiangshi from the background, who was originally Liu Zhang's former minister, and later submitted to Liu Bei. Because this person's surname is upright and simple, and he will not modify his emotions, few scholars are willing to associate with him, so he is more than half a hundred years old, but he is only too guarded by a county.

However, Fang Shao is well aware of this person's talent, and he had recommended him to envoy to Eastern Wu before, and when he went on this expedition, he specially recommended this person to Liu Bei, and asked him to go with the army.

The man saw the hint in Fang Shao's eyes, pondered for a moment, and then decisively stood up and said loudly: "If Da Sima can be trusted, Deng Zhi is willing to go to Jingcheng to be a lobbyist." ”

This person is Deng Zhi Deng Bomiao.

Fang Shao was overjoyed in his heart, and said: "It's rare that Bo Miao has this courage, okay, then I will repair a book, Bo Miao will take it to Jingcheng, and explain the benefits and disadvantages to Mencius, if this great achievement is achieved, I will recommend it in front of Your Majesty in the future." ”

Deng Zhi said lightly: "Zhiben is a state affair, how dare he pretend to be a meritorious person, Da Sima is serious." ”

Deng Zhi's reputation is not obvious, and his reputation is not said to be compared with Wei Yan and other generals, even the young generals such as Jiang Wei and Deng Ai who are present are not as good as them.

However, Deng Zhi didn't care about the eyes of others at all, and only stood calmly in the strange gaze of others, treating everyone as nothing.

Fang Shao picked up the pen, and after thinking about it again, he handed over a letter of repair to Deng Zhi. Deng Zhi left the camp with this handwritten letter from Fang Shao and arrived at Jingcheng Pass in the evening of the same day.

As Fang Shao expected, Meng Da at this time was troubled by the complex situation he was facing.

The battle of Yecheng in the south was inconclusive, and the Hedong County in the rear was attacked by Cao Ying, and Wu Yi and others from Jinyang had sent a letter, hinting at the ongoing adventure, asking him to guard the Jingcheng and prevent the large army controlled by the Jingzhou scholars from entering the pass, and dozens of miles away from the Guandong, Fang Shao's army of nearly 100,000 was already on the way.

Suddenly, Meng Da found himself caught in the middle of a complex whirlpool of struggle, unable to extricate himself and unable to avoid it.

Just when Meng Da was anxious, he suddenly heard that Deng Zhi came to ask for a meeting.

'Deng Bomiao, isn't this person Fang Shao's person? Well, it seems that the person who came was not good.'

Meng Da already had a bottom in his heart, so he invited Deng Zhi to enter the customs to see him.

When Deng Zhi calmly walked into the hall, he found Meng Da sitting upright with a solemn brow, and the two sides of the hall were covered with swords and axes, as if he was facing a great enemy.

Deng Zhi and Meng Da are also colleagues who have worked together since Liu Zhang's time, and he knows Meng Da's personality no better.

At that moment, Deng Zhi was not afraid, strode forward, bowed, and said neither humbly nor arrogantly: "The lower official pays a visit to General Pingdong." ”

As one of the three masterminds who conspired with Fa Zheng to welcome Liu Bei into Shu that year, the late Fa Zheng official Ren Zuo Da Sima was regarded as a very popular minister.

As for that Zhang Song, because Liu Bei has always disliked this person's slippery personality, he only gave him a false title, and he has been refrigerated for a long time and has not been given a heavy responsibility. This person is depressed and unwilling, a few years ago, the surname Suo resigned on the grounds of illness for retirement, Liu Bei didn't like Zhang Song, even if he agreed.

Although Meng Da's surname also has a side to the left and right, after all, it is not as annoying as Zhang Song, and this person is always talented, and Liu Bei still uses it very much.

As early as when Liu Bei entered Shu, he appointed Meng Da as the Taishou of Yidu, which is the key place at the junction of Yizhou and Jingzhou, which shows Liu Bei's reuse and trust in him. When attacking the three eastern counties in the north, Liu Beiyuan also wanted to use Meng Da to defend the three eastern counties, but under Fang Shao's secret obstruction, he was reassigned to Wei Yan to defend it.

Later, Liu Bei called himself the king and called the emperor, although Meng Da's official position on the bright side was not even as good as Huang Quan's peers, but in fact, he had always been entrusted with military power and sat on one side. For example, when he captured Hebei in this way, Liu Bei ordered Meng Da to serve as the general of Pingdong and concurrently serve as the Taishou of Leping, and sit in strategic places such as Jingcheng.

It's just that Fang Shao didn't expect Jia Xu's plan in the Han Army at that time, and Liu Bei would suddenly be on the verge of life and death, which eventually led to today's complicated situation, so he didn't obstruct Liu Bei's appointment at that time, but what he didn't expect was that Liu Bei's appointment now made Meng Da a key person.

Facing Deng Zhi, Meng Da said coldly: "You don't guard the giant deer, why did you come here?" ”

Deng Zhi raised his head and replied, "Zuo Da Sima has ordered the whole army to retreat, and the lower officer has been ordered to follow the army. This time, the official came, but also on the order of Fang Da Sima, and specially came to pass it to the general, and the big Sima did not say that he would withdraw the army into the customs and go to recapture Hedong County, and ask the general to switch and let him go. ”

Meng Da snorted: "I heard that His Majesty did not edict Da Sima to enter the customs, and what Da Sima is doing now is not against the emperor's order." ”

"Your Majesty gave Da Sima a secret decree, the purpose of which is to confuse the Wei State, so the general doesn't know about it." Deng Zhi opened his mouth to make up nonsense, lying without even blinking his eyes.

The edicts were all issued by Jin Yang, and it was impossible for Meng Da to know if there was such a secret edict, he knew very well that Deng Zhi was lying, but he couldn't expose it.

Meng Da's eyes rolled a few times, and then said: "Even so, but I don't have His Majesty's edict, how can I open and close you to let you in without permission." If Da Sima wants to enter the customs, he should send someone to Jinyang for instructions first, and after I get His Majesty's edict, it will naturally be switched on. ”

Of course, Meng Da was deliberately embarrassed, if he could get the edict of the Son of Heaven from Jinyang, why did Fang Shao send Deng Zhi to be this lobbyist.

After hearing this, Deng Zhi's expression suddenly changed, and he said sharply: "Your Majesty ordered before leaving, all the armies in Hebei are under the control of Da Sima, and General Meng is no exception. Even if there is no edict from His Majesty, Da Sima has the right to deal with it on the spot, but General Meng, you have repeatedly shirked and obstructed, is it possible that you want to rebel? ”

Meng Da didn't expect Deng Zhi's attitude to change suddenly, and he just stopped talking harshly, and put a big hat of "rebellion" on himself.

Meng Da was shocked and angry, and shouted urgently: "Deng Zhi, you don't want to spew blood and frame the general!" ”

Deng Zhi sneered: "How can I frame you, I came to order you on the order of the Great Sima, not only did you greet you with courtesy, but also laid down so many armor soldiers in this hall, as if dealing with the enemy, this is not what you want to do if you want to rebel." ”

Deng Zhi firmly believed that Meng Da would not dare to turn his face, so he dared to reprimand him so harshly.

In fact, Meng Da really didn't dare to turn his face with Fang Shao, after all, there were more than 100,000 troops outside the pass, and he only had less than 3,000 soldiers and horses in this well pass, how much ability Fang Shao had He also knew, how dare he dare to compete with him before he made up his mind.

Laying down these armor soldiers is just to scare Deng Zhi and increase the bargaining chips in the negotiations, but now he is a 'stunned young man', but he is not afraid, but now he has become a stone to shoot himself in the foot.

Being reprimanded by Deng Zhi like this, Meng Da's mind turned, and he suddenly laughed: "People say that Deng Bomiao is fearless, and it is indeed so." I'm just joking, trying to see if the rumors are true, so why bother with them. Don't go back yet! ”

After repulsing a cadre of armor soldiers, Meng Da personally stepped down, greeted Deng Zhi as a guest, and said with a wry smile: "Actually, it is not that Da intends to embarrass Fang Sima, but Da just received an edict from Jinyang yesterday, and strictly ordered Da not to open and let Fang Sima enter." But now Sima Fang wants to enter the customs, and Da is also very embarrassed. ”

Deng Zhi took the opportunity, his expression eased, took out the letter in his arms, and presented it with both hands: "General Meng, this is a handwritten letter from Da Sima to the general, the general might as well take a look at it first." ”

Meng Da took the letter, opened it and took a closer look, and his face couldn't help but show a little joy.

It was a greedy joy, like a pie falling from the sky.

Because Fang Shao made a heavy promise to Meng Da in the letter, claiming that if Meng Da let him enter the customs, he would have a reinventing contribution to the country. Now that Fa Xiaozhi is dead, the Son of Heaven will definitely give him Fang Shao, and when he is introduced, he will unite Zhuge Liang, Pang Tong and others to write to the Son of Heaven, recommending him Meng Da to take on the vacant position of the Right Great Sima.

Right Da Sima, for himself, can be described as flying overnight.

At this time, Meng Da couldn't help but be a little tempted.
