Chapter Ninety-Four

The two talked nonsense for a long time, and Zhang Song originally planned to let Zhang Lang lead the topic to the topic first, but Zhang Lang didn't seem to care about the business at all, and didn't mention half a word from beginning to end.

Zhang Song couldn't help it, and took the initiative to say: "General, I came this time to discuss with the general about a major matter related to the rise and fall of our two families. ”

Zhang Lang nodded, indicating that he was listening.

Zhang Song felt a little discouraged, and asked with a fist: "I don't know what the general wants to lead the army into Hanzhong?" ”

Zhang Lang smiled, "What do you say?" ”

Zhang Song frowned, feeling that this Lu Bu was simply an old and cunning guy, much more difficult than those civil officials and dignitaries who had been in contact with him on weekdays, who said that Lu Bu was just a puppet?

"With all due respect, the general is only afraid that he is here to be in Xichuan, right?"

Zhang Lang smiled, noncommittal.

Zhang Song continued: "If the general intends to be in Xichuan, I am afraid that he will end up with a feather in the end!" Can the general know that 'the difficulty of Shu Road is difficult to go to the blue sky'? ”

Zhang Lang nodded, revealing a thoughtful expression.

Zhang Song saw that Zhang Lang was moved, and couldn't help but come to the momentum, "Shu Dao is dangerous, and now my Xichuan is defended with heavy troops, although the general is a strong general, but to break through Xichuan, with all due respect, I am afraid that it is impossible!" ”

Zhang Lang glanced at Zhang Song and mocked: "Don't drive to persuade me to withdraw from the army?" ”

"Nope! I'm here to show the general a clear way. ”

"Oh? I would like to hear about it. ”

Zhang Song clenched his fists, "General, your army has now entered Hanzhong, why don't you seize Hanzhong?" With the bravery of the general, it is easy to capture Hanzhong, and it is better to touch the danger of Xichuan! ”

Zhang Lang showed hesitation.

Zhang Song continued: "My lord will never dare to be the enemy of the general, if the general attacks Hanzhong, whether it is money, food, soldiers and horses, the general will open his mouth!" ”

Zhang Lang was still silent.

Zhang Song couldn't help but be a little anxious, "There is no defeat in Hanzhong, and the general is wise and martial, why are you hesitating?" ”

Zhang Lang nodded.

Zhang Song was overjoyed when he saw this.

Zhang Lang glanced at Zhang Song and warned: "If you dare to play tricks on me in the process of taking Hanzhong, don't blame me for being ruthless!" ”

"Don't dare, don't dare! How dare I be the enemy of the general? ”

Zhang Lang smiled, picked up the pen and wrote a letter, and handed it to Zhang Song, "This is my letter to Liu Zhang, you can hand it over to him for me." ”

Zhang Song hurriedly stepped forward and took the letter with both hands, "If the general has no other instructions, he will rush back to Chengdu to reply to my lord." ”

Zhang Lang nodded.

Zhang Song clenched his fist at Zhang Lang, turned around and left the big tent.

Zhang Lang looked at Zhang Song's back and smiled slightly.

Xu Huang, who couldn't hold back for a long time, asked urgently: "General, we really don't fight Xichuan anymore?" ”

Zhang Lang smiled but did not speak.

Zhang Song left the camp of Lu Bujun, boarded the carriage, and said in a loud voice: "Go back." The coachman flicked his whip, and the carriage headed west, escorted by several plainclothes knights.

Zhang Song opened the letter written by Zhang Lang to Liu Zhang in the carriage, read it, smiled coldly, and sneered: "The dignified general is nothing more than that!" ”

Zhang Lang's army was stationed outside Baocheng for more than ten days, without any movement, and there was no sign of attacking Baishui Pass at all.

In the lobby of the Hanzhong Governance Office, Zhang Lu was pacing back and forth in the hall, his brows furrowed, and his face was anxious.

"Lord, my subordinates feel that Lu Bu has ill intentions, so I must guard against it!" Strategist Yan Pudao.

Yan Pu's words hit Zhang Lu's mind, Zhang Lu's brows furrowed even tighter, and he glanced at Yan Pu, "Then, what should we do?" ”

Yan Pu glanced at Yang Song and the others, and said angrily: "My subordinates have always opposed the introduction of wolves into the house, but some people don't know what benefits they have received from others, and they actually try their best to pry them in front of the lord!" Now that the wolf has entered the house, if he really has the intention of hurting people, I am afraid that Hanzhong will turn the world upside down! ”

Yang Song immediately retorted: "Yan Pu, the reason why Lu Bu did not move was because of the problem of grain and grass, so why worry about it? ”

Yan Pu sneered: "Didn't the 800,000 Hu grain already be sent two days ago?" Is this a matter of grain and grass? He hugged his fist towards Zhang Lu, "Lord, Lu Bu was fighting a trick to destroy Yu from the beginning!" So far, the troops have not moved, and nine times out of ten it is because the army that Chang'an has received has not yet been in place! Once in place, it will be the day of the great calamity! ”

Everyone's hearts couldn't help but chuckle, but Yang Song still argued strongly, "Yan Pu, you are a demon to confuse the public, lest the world be chaotic!" ”

Yan Pu ignored Yang Song and said to Zhang Lu urgently: "Lord, for the sake of today's plan, you should immediately close the surrounding city gates and stick to the city, so that not only can you avoid a catastrophe, but it may even be possible to capture and kill Lu Bu!" ”

"Yan Pu, you are framing the lord! You say that Lu Bu has bad intentions is just your guess, and now it is more likely that Lu Bu has no bad intentions, if the lord does it rashly, wouldn't it be self-inflicted? ”

Zhang Lu felt that what Yan Pu and Yang Song said was reasonable, and he couldn't make a decision for a while.

Yan Pu had already quarreled with Yang Song below, and both of them looked angry.

Zhang Lu was upset, so he simply got up and left through the side door.

All the civil and military officers glanced at each other and exited the lobby one after another.

Seeing this, the two arguing people couldn't help but feel bored, so they also left the lobby.

Although Zhang Lu couldn't make up his mind to make a move on LΓΌ Bu, he was always worried, so he sent Xizuo to spy near LΓΌ Bu's military camp, and also sent Zhang Wei as an envoy to send Lu Bu's military camp on the grounds of rewarding the army.

Just when Zhang Lu was worried, Liu Zhang in Chengdu was greatly relieved. Zhang Song returned to Chengdu with good news, and soon after, the military report from Baishui Pass also confirmed Zhang Song's report, Liu Zhang and the big stone in the hearts of the civil and military finally fell, Liu Zhang praised Zhang Song, Zhang Song was triumphant, and Huang Quan was depressed.

Zhang Song presented Liu Zhang with a handwritten letter written by Lu Bu to him, and when Liu Zhang saw the handwriting that was not any calligraphy, he couldn't help but laugh and said: "Lu Bu is just a military general!" Everyone smiled.

After reading the letter, Liu Zhang said happily: "The general actually has no intention of annexing my Xichuan, and the reason why he sent troops is mainly to get money and food to fight against Yuan Shao!" In the letter, he said that as long as I, Xichuan, provide him with 200,000 troops every year, I will never fight Xichuan's idea! ”

Huang Quan hurriedly said: "Even so, if Yuan Shao is defeated, how can Lu Bu not do anything to my Xichuan?" ”

Zhang Song laughed mockingly, "Huang Quan, do you think that the lord can't see this?" The lord knows better than you and me, but now taking out some money and food can save me from Xichuan's imminent dilemma! As for the future, I think Lu Bu Bacheng is not Yuan Shao's opponent, and sooner or later he will be eliminated by Yuan Shao! In fact, no matter how he wins or loses, the lord sits on the mountain and watches the tiger fight, waiting for the opportunity to move, and he can be invincible! ”

Zhang Song's words made Liu Zhang very useful, and he nodded frequently, "Yongnian's words are very much in line with my heart!" Huang Quan frowned.

Liu Zhang said to Fa Zheng: "Xiaozhi, you immediately mobilize one million Hu grain, three hundred thousand taels of silver and send it to the Lu Bu military camp!" "No."
