The subject state of Guanghan was originally a vassal state of the princes surnamed Liu, but now although it is still called a vassal country, it has no king, which is equivalent to a county rule.

Yinping County, as a subordinate state governance equivalent to county governance, has a fairly good scale of the county seat, and the defense facilities are not too bad.

However, the army of 150,000 gathered here, but the city could not accommodate it. Even if all the people in the city were to be relocated, most of the army would still have to camp outside the city, and watch over each other in a corner with the city.

In the mansion in the city, Zhao Wei, as the main general, gathered all the civil and military cadres under his command to discuss countermeasures.

"The Liangzhou army has recently gathered in Wuguang Pass, which is twenty miles away, and it seems that the war is imminent." Zhao Wei did not leak his voice and said: "Do you have a plan to teach me to resist the enemy army in Liangzhou?" ”

Huang Quan, Yan Yan and others were speechless and silent. But a general, Yang Huai, said: "Why should Governor Zhao worry? The Liangzhou army is known as invincible in the field, and that is because it is in Liangzhou. And the terrain of my Yizhou is complicated, and it seems to the general that my 150,000 troops are gathered here, and they only need to defend the city strictly according to the terrain, and the Liangzhou army is helpless. When its grain and grass are exhausted, it will naturally recede. ”

"Not bad!"

A general, Gao Pei, echoed: "As it should be, as long as you hold the city, take strict precautions, and don't fight with it, the chances of victory are quite high." ”

Zhao Wei heard this, but he didn't speak, only looked at Huang Quan and the others.

Huang Quan pondered for a moment, his face was helpless, and said, "Although what the two generals Gao and Yang said is not bad, it is only useful for the rest of the princes. The two generals may not know that Liangzhou has a so-called sky war horse, which can strike at the ground in mid-air. In the face of such an army, can the two generals deal with it? ”

Yan Yan and the others had all seen the Golden Wing Tiger Rider, which was why they didn't speak just now. Hearing Huang Quan ask about this matter, he also looked at Yang Huai and Gao Pei.

"Sky Warrior?"

Yang Huai and Gao Pei have been leading troops to guard the pass outside, and they have never seen the Golden Wing Tiger Horse, although they have heard of it, but they are only rumors. But at the moment, this should be true, what is Huang Quan's identity, he will never believe it!

After thinking about it, Yang Huai said: "How high can the so-called Sky War Rider fly?" ”

Huang Quan said: "There are still hundreds of zhang." Didn't the two generals want to shoot it down with crossbow arrows? That's impossible! It flies so high that even a bed crossbow can't reach it at all! ”

Yang Huai and Gao Pei's brows furrowed deeper and deeper, and they were speechless for a while.

"Liangzhou has the advantage of air warfare, and any city defense will not help. Although the number of Sky War Riders may not be much, they can't afford to harass them all the time! Yan Yan sighed.

Passive, too passive!

Zhao Wei saw that the generals were speechless, so he said: "Looking at Liangzhou's actions, it is imperative for me to win Yizhou, and when its army gathers, it will inevitably move south." No matter what, the fight still has to be fought. Since there is no good way, let's go down first, take strict precautions, and then respond to the situation. ”

waved off the generals, but Zhao Wei left Huang Quan and Yan Yan behind.

The three of them entered the inner hall and sat opposite each other in silence for a long time.

Zhao Yuncai said: "Liangzhou is powerful, and smart people can see it." After a pause, he said: "The lord Liu Yizhou is benevolent, Yizhou is rich year by year, but there are still hungry people in the wilderness, there are also arrogant and strong, and there are barbarians who are in turmoil, and they are far inferior to Liangzhou in all aspects. Now the hearts of the people of Yizhou are shaken, and most of the people of all walks of life are looking to Liangzhou.

As he spoke, he shook his head, and at the same time, he stared at Huang Quan and Yan Yan tightly.

Huang Quan frowned and said, "Governor Zhao also has his heart set on Liangzhou, right?" ”

When Zhao Wei heard this, he couldn't help but smile and said, "Those who know the times are Junjie." Gong Heng, you are a person who has been to Liangzhou several times, and you know Liangzhou more deeply than any of us. I don't believe it, you don't see the current situation! ”

Huang Quan's face was bitter: "What the governor said is not bad. Liangzhou is far beyond me in all aspects. Previously, General Yang Huai still wanted to hold on to the city and exhaust the food and grass of the Liangzhou army, which can be said to be whimsical! Even if there is no sky war horse, everyone in Yizhou will starve to death, and it is impossible to run out of grain and grass in Liangzhou! ”

Yan Yan was also deeply touched and said: "What Gongheng said is very true. ”

The Yan family has been trading with Liangzhou for a long time, and their understanding of Liangzhou is deeper than that of Huang Quan, and they understand the horror of Liangzhou even more. Not only is the army strong and difficult to match, but also because of the heritage of Liangzhou, it has reached a long-standing Cheng dù that people look up to!

If you want money, you want food, you want people, who can fight?!

Seeing this, Zhao Wei couldn't help but smile and said, "I'll make it clear to the two of you here, I, Zhao, have indeed been interested in Liangzhou for a long time." Following Liu Yizhou, there was no hope, for the sake of the family, for the future, I chose Liangzhou. I think you both have the same thoughts, and I called them together today just to hear your opinions. ”

Yan Yan stroked his beard, his face was helpless, and said: "If Liangzhou is no different from other princes, I, Yan, will not throw myself to Liangzhou if I swear to death." But Liangzhou is the land of abundance! Liangzhou's policies and welfare, it can be said that it has created an unprecedented situation, if Li Liangzhou can dominate the world, he will be able to create a powerful empire that has never been seen before, surpassing the three emperors, and far ahead of the five emperors! It's a blessing for me and for all the people! Yan Yan said, his face was a little excited, and suddenly he said helplessly: "Besides, my Yan family and Liangzhou are getting more and more entangled, if I resist, the family will be wiped out!" ”

Huang Quan nodded in agreement, and said: "I, Huang Gongheng, claim to be knowledgeable, both civil and military, I want a broad stage to display my ideals." And Li Liangzhou is the best choice! ”

The three of them bowed their heads in unison, and their eyes were full of approval.

The three of them, especially Zhao Wei, always disagreed with the other two in the past, and it was difficult to talk about it, but at this time, they had one heart and made people, so what can they do?

"So, what to do next, you two can help me get an idea." Zhao Wei said: "Directly to Liangzhou, but there is something wrong. The generals under his command, such as Yang Huai and Gao Pei, still have the heart to resist. Moreover, if there is no battle, he will throw himself into Liangzhou, but it will inevitably make Li Liangzhou look down on me! ”

"This is a very good statement," Huang Quan pondered for a moment and said, "It's better to fight first, let Yang Huai, Gao Pei and other generals suffer and wear down their resistance heart." ”

"You can secretly contact Wu Guangguan to avoid excessive war losses." Yan Yan said: "Liangzhou soldiers are well-armed, presumably the two of you should have seen it, once a large-scale war starts, the lethality is incalculable." ”

Liangzhou's weapons and armor have long become a luxury. The second-hand goods that Dong Zhuo bought from Liangzhou can easily defeat Sun Jian. Some high-level officials in Yizhou have also obtained some micro armor through some means, and naturally know the sophistication and power of these armor!

Wuguang Pass, at night, a small team of people quietly came to the pass, please see Zhang Shan.

After Zhang Shan learned the news, he immediately asked people to put down the hanging basket, and all the people in this team were hoisted to the city pass and introduced into the camp.

"It turned out to be Huang Gongheng!"

Zhang Shan saw that it was Huang Quan who came to see him, and couldn't help but smile and said, "Please sit down quickly." ”

Huang Quan has traveled to Liangzhou many times, and he is also familiar with Zhang Shan.

Huang Quan smiled: "General Zhang, it's been a long time!" ”

"Haha, long time no time!" Zhang Shan smiled heroically and said: "At present, my Liangzhou and Yizhou have become hostile, what is the purpose of Gongheng coming to me?" ”

That night, Zhang Shan and Huang Quan talked for half a night, and at ten o'clock in the morning, Huang Quan was sent out of Wuguangguan.

Subsequently, Zhang Shantong Guò Lan Xiangniao, and what Huang Quan said, was transmitted back to Liangzhou.

After Li Zheng read the information, he couldn't help but show joy.

It seems that Yinping's 150,000 army will be self-defeating, and Yizhou will be able to go down overnight!

Chengdu.

Since Liu Yan learned that Liangzhou had been stationed in Wuguangguan, he couldn't sleep day and night, and the whole person was much haggard. The hatred for Li Zheng is endless.

"Thief Li deceived me like this, how vicious, how vicious!"

Nominally speaking, he is still Li Zheng's father-in-law, but Li Zheng blatantly wants to use troops against Yizhou for no reason, which is simply madness!

But no matter how much he cursed, it didn't help, Liu Yan first called Wu Yi and asked him to send a message to Wu Amaranth, wanting Wu Amaranth to blow the pillow wind to Li Zheng and dispel Li Zheng's mind of attacking Yizhou.

Wu Yi knew that Li Zheng was the male lord and would never be swayed by his wife and concubine, but what Liu Yan asked for, he had to do. Do your best, just obey the destiny of heaven.

Then he called Zhang Ren and others to discuss countermeasures.

Liu Yan felt that since Li Zheng had torn his face in disregard of morality, then he, Liu Yan, would also have to break the boat. Didn't Dong Zhuo send someone to the alliance before?

Then you should do it! even planned to let Dong Zhuo's army enter Shu to resist Li Zheng's soldiers and horses.

"No!"

Zhang Ren objected, and said: "Since Li Thief sent troops, then he must consider all aspects properly, and he must take strict precautions against Dong Zhuo." Besides, Li Thief is a tiger, Dong Zhuo is a wolf, tigers and wolves are the same, don't drive away the tiger, but attract greedy wolves! ”

"But what can we do about the current situation?" Liu Yan was helpless.

"The alliance Dong Zhuo is feasible, so let's put some pressure on Li Thief. But who is Dong Zhuo? If you don't see a rabbit, you don't scatter an eagle! If you don't give benefits, Dong Zhuo will never move! Zhang Renjian said: "Maybe you can use Hanzhong to lure Dong Zhuo to send troops!" But Dong Zhuo must not be let into Shu! ”

Liu Yan thought about it for a long time and nodded slowly.

Although Hanzhong is owned by Zhang Lu, without the support of Yizhou, it is by no means Dong Zhuo's opponent, with Hanzhong as bait, Dong Zhuo should not let go of this opportunity.

"In addition, His Majesty has recruited barbarian soldiers to defend Shuzhong!" Zhang Ren said: "Barbarians are good at fighting, especially in the mountains and hills, they are unmatched. With the help of brute soldiers, you will be able to prevent the Li thief! ”

When Liu Yan heard this, he was immediately overjoyed, praised Zhang Yifan, and hurriedly ordered the recruitment of brute soldiers!

Chang'an, but said that Dong Zhuo learned that Li Zheng would use troops against Yizhou, and the whole person was extremely irritable, thinking about it all night, and the next day, Dong Zhuo issued several military orders in a row, and went to Chencang, Hanzhong, and Hedong!
