Chapter 440: Seeking War (4)

Zhang Yan heard this: "Mr. Fu, this matter is not difficult for our army, we have the 'Entering Shu Map' that the lord got from Zhang Song, in this area, after two years of exploration, we almost became locals, and this point, killing Sun Ce and Liu Bei could not have imagined." ”

Fu Zhi and Gan Ning laughed when they heard this, and Fu Zhu said to Gan Ning with a smile: "Of course we can hide well, not to mention that we also have a super spy, isn't it, Xingba?" Of course, Zhang Yan knew that Fu Zhu was talking about Gan Ning, and couldn't help but quip: "Of course, but Xingba, you'd better get the copper bell off your body, otherwise there will be a clanging sound everywhere you go, wouldn't it be bad?" The frustrated professor burst into laughter when he heard this, and Gan Ning shook his head and sighed, but he couldn't help but smile. Frustrated, he slapped his thigh and shouted, "Okay! We will take action, and we will definitely let Sun Ce and Liu Bei return in vain. Gan Ning and Zhang Yan responded in a hurry.

By the Danshui River, the breeze is strong.

Liao Li squinted at the Yizhou army not far away, his face was indifferent.

"Mr. Liao Li, what are you looking at?" A voice that was so powerful that it could make people's hearts tremble came over, and there seemed to be infinite power in it. Miao Li didn't need to look back to know that the person who spoke was Huang Zhong, the number one tiger general in Jingzhou.

Sure enough, in the next moment, Huang Zhong, who was extremely majestic, had already appeared in front of Mu Li, and there were other generals in Jingzhou who came with him.

He looked at the people who were respectful to him, and he was satisfied, he was a madman, and his eyes were above the top. Few people can be taken seriously by him, but Zhou Yu is indeed an exception. During the period when Zhou Yu appointed himself as the second army division of Jingzhou, Liao Li used his extremely outstanding performance to conquer the civil and military officials of the Jingzhou faction. Therefore, Huang Zhong and others will respect him like a god. Looking at Liao Li is not much different from looking at Zhou Yu. Liao Li looked at everyone and said indifferently: "Nothing." I'm just watching the Yizhou army set up camp. ”

The Jingzhou generals looked at each other, not understanding what Liao Li meant at all, but they also adapted, Liao Li's character is like this, and he is very good at seeing clues about some things.

Zhang Yun, who had a grim face, tentatively said to Liao Li: "Sir, according to the current trend, it will take us some time to find the Yanzhou Army. Liao Li grinned and said, "This matter is really hard to say, of course we hope to find an army that Xu Ji has planted here." However, this matter still depends on what the Yizhou army does. ”

Huang Zhong said in a deep voice: "According to Mr. Gongjin's prediction, if there is a Yanzhou army here. Then it must be led by Fu Zhi, and the army itself is the Montenegrin Army under Zhang Yan, as for the general in the army, it should be Gan Ning Gan Xingba, the combination of these three people is not easy to deal with, but I have the confidence to deal with Gan Ning Gan Xingba, hmph, don't think that scolding and killing Yuan Min and stabbing Yu Ji is great, I want him to understand the truth that there are people outside the world, and there are heavens outside the sky. "No one would think that Huang Zhong was talking in vain. Because Huang Zhong does have enough arrogant capital.

Liao Li glanced at Huang Zhong and said indifferently: "General Huang Zhong's strength is beyond doubt, but our task is not to kill this Yanzhou army, but to make the other party retreat in the face of difficulties." You can't make waves again. Therefore, there is no need for us to use all our strength against them. ”

After a pause, Liao Li said again: "If there is really such a Yanzhou army here, it will be interesting." Everyone looked at each other. I don't quite understand what Liao Li is referring to when he says interesting.

Liao Li narrowed his eyes and sneered: "If we find this Yanzhou army." That is to say, we can be sure that the people who attacked Yu Ji in Chang'an City were Gan Ning and Xu Ji, if so. That is to say, Xu Ji had already begun to prepare to enter Shu from this road a long time ago. Because the march needs a guide, but just looking at the fact that the Yanzhou army has been slow to support it for many years, it proves that Xu Ji is only in the exploration stage of this Shu road, and you can imagine the significance of Ganning here. And such a long stay shows that even with Gan Ning as a guide, it is not very helpful. Everyone nodded thoughtfully, what Liao Li said made sense, but is it useful to say these things now? Anyway, once that army is discovered, it will be a burst of killing.

Liao Li ignored everyone's reactions, a cold glint flashed in his eyes, looked at the place where the Yizhou army was encamped, and said in a deep voice: "The Yanzhou army has this intention, but nothing has been achieved for two years. If it were us, I'm afraid it would be the same result, but what about the Yizhou Army? They are easy to advance and retreat on this hidden road, you must know that the road to Shu is difficult, even if it is a local in Yizhou, if it is not easy to find the right way, does it mean that the Yizhou army has a drawing in his hand, which details the road to Shu? Everyone was stunned, but they didn't expect Liao Li to notice this problem, and after thinking about it carefully, they had to admit that Liao Li's conjecture was very likely.

Zhang Yun showed the ability of a famous general in Jingzhou at this time, only to see him nod and say: "Sir's words are very reasonable, these days, we are just blindly following the command of the Yizhou army, and our army and the Yizhou army are flanked on both sides The route of the Yanzhou army, which does not know whether there exists, is completely provided by Yizhou." ”

Liao Li sighed and said, "If anyone can dedicate this drawing to the lord, it is really a great achievement." Everyone listened to the eyes, and immediately understood what Liao Li meant, to be a man to take a long-term view, although now Sun Ce's territory is only in Jingzhou Jiangnan four counties, but Sun Ce's ideal is obviously not just in Jingzhou, sooner or later the four sides of the place will be opened, if you can get the road map into Yizhou in your hands, Sun Ce will be very happy.

Everyone didn't expect Liao Li to think so far. Liao Li ignored everyone's astonishment and reverie, and said hesitantly: "But it is very difficult for this matter to be realized, Pang Tong is a smart man, he will not fail to think of this, since he dares to order us to march so surely, then he dares to ensure that this drawing will never fall into our hands." ”

When everyone heard this, they were deflated and talked for a long time, but there was still no hope at all? Think about it, you must know that Pang Tong is one of the top wise men in the world, and he is at the same level as Liao Li and Zhou Yu. Where is it so easy to be calculated?

However, everyone immediately heard Liao Li sneering: "But Pang Tong has a vicious mind and is the best at calculating. I thought there must be a fake drawing in his army, just hoping that we would be fooled. If we take that drawing in our hands and treat it as a treasure, in the future, if there is a conflict between the two sides, this fake drawing may become our fatal wound. ”

Everyone gasped, knowing that Liao Li's words made a lot of sense. Liao Li said softly with a grim smile on his face, "But I can guarantee it." This fake drawing is real in many places, but there are discrepancies with the real drawing in key places. If someone is gullible, then they will definitely fall into the ambush of the Yizhou army in the future. ”

Huang Zhong said in a deep voice: "But we won't be fooled, after all, Mr. Liao Li has already mentioned it." ”

Liao Li said indifferently: "Of course we won't be fooled, but we hope that someone will be fooled." And this person must be Xu Ji. Everyone was confused, and they didn't understand why Liao Li wanted to get involved with Xu Ji.

Liao Li explained coldly: "We might as well steal this drawing and send someone to give it to Xu Ji, guess what Xu Ji's reaction will be after getting this map." ”

Zhang Yun said: "Of course I was ecstatic. ”

Liao Li nodded and said: "That's right, no matter whether Xu Ji has an army here ready to find a way to sneak attack Yizhou, but it is an indisputable fact that Xu Ji wants to deal with Yizhou, with this half-truth and half-truth drawing, of course Xu Ji will be ready to move." Fu Xun, who had not spoken, frowned and said, "We will not be fooled." Xu Ji had countless strategists. How can you be fooled? Anyone will verify this drawing once they get it, and by that time, will we not be able to show our feet soon? ”

Liao Li laughed and said, "The problem is that Xu Ji can't know the source of this drawing at all, and he doesn't know that this drawing is stolen by us." And even if Xu Ji comes to verify, he will be fooled. After a pause, Liao Li pointed to the Yizhou camp opposite. sneered: "Don't even think about it, no matter if you can find the Yanzhou Army this time." Pang Tong will be stationed here with heavy troops. Just in case. If Xu Ji sent someone to test it, he would definitely not dare to go deeper. So there is no way to know that there is something wrong with the most critical part, and all the inconsequential places in front are true, how can you say that Xu Ji is not fooled? ”

Everyone shouted in their hearts, but they didn't expect Liao Li to turn decay into magic and play such tricks with a drawing that had no effect on the party at all. Fu Xun couldn't help laughing, looked at the Yizhou camp, and mocked: "Pang Tong Xiao'er, you actually used such a trick, do you think we will be fooled?" I can't help but underestimate Mr. Liao Li. ”

Everyone smiled.

Liao Li shook his head and said: "General Fu Xun, you are wrong, Pang Tong didn't want us to be fooled at all, even if he didn't know my Liao Li's methods, but he should know how powerful Mr. Zhou Yu is, how could Mr. Zhou Yu be fooled?" He just wanted to use the letter to mock us a little, if we did steal it, of course. Everyone was a little angry when they heard this, but Liao Li said indifferently: "Of course, Pang Tong also has another meaning, that is, he has expected that we will send this drawing to Xu Ji after we get it, of course we are not ashamed to do this, but if we don't do it, we will be laughed at by Pang Tong." ”

When everyone heard this, they suddenly realized, and at the same time felt creepy in their hearts, they didn't expect that these strategists were so unfathomable and unfathomable, and an ordinary little thing would have so many deep meanings. If you are calculated, you are afraid that you will not know how you will die. Huang Zhong took a deep breath and said, "So, should we send someone to steal this drawing?" ”

Liao Li smiled and said, "Why do we want to steal it?" ”

Everyone was stunned, but Liao Li smiled and said, "Wouldn't it be better for us to go?" ”

Everyone thought about it carefully and shouted in an uproar. In doing so, Liao Li could not only get this fake drawing in his hands, but also demonstrate to Pang Tong, showing that he would never fall for Pang Tong's little strategy.

Zhang Yun frowned again and said, "There is one thing I don't understand, that is, why did Pang Tong borrow us to pass this fake document to Xu Ji?" It seems that Pang Tong himself can do this well. ”

Liao Li smiled when he heard this, but then explained: "General Zhang Yun probably doesn't know much about Pang Tong's mentality, you know, although we are allies, we are not real friends, we are only temporarily cooperating because of Xu Ji's affairs." There are many types of cooperation, and those who work side by side are equal to each other. In doing so, Pang Tong is actually demonstrating to us. This is a sign of this collaboration. They are the dominant ones in Yizhou, and our Jingzhou is just a vassal. The crowd listened a little flustered. But I heard Liao Li say in a deep voice: "Pang Tong's meaning is obvious, that is: if you Jingzhou want to keep the peace." Then we need to help us hold Yizhou, if Yizhou is lost, you will immediately fall into the encirclement of Xu Ji."

"Fart!" Fu Xun's temperament was as fierce as fire, and he immediately scolded violently. Liao Li glanced at Fu Xun and said coldly: "General Fu Xun doesn't need to be angry, of course Pang Tong is talking about a dream." However, in fact, we really need to help Yizhou defend Shu Dao, and Pang Tong calculated that Governor Zhou Yu would definitely not personally lead the army to come this time, so he used a fake map to trick us. Of course, he knew that Governor Zhou Yu would see through the fact that this drawing was fake, but that was after we stole the drawings back. And Zhou Yu had no choice but to send this drawing to Xu Ji. This is actually saying that we went to send the drawings on the orders of Pang Tong? Isn't it an indirect recognition of our subordination in the League? Everyone was stunned, and they all scolded Pang Tong for his profound scheming.

Liao Li said coldly: "Liu Bei is the emperor's uncle of the current saint, and now there are only two powerful princes surnamed Liu in the world, one is Liu Xuan, and the other is Liu Bei, Liu Xuan has been set aside by Cao Cao, or Liu Miao wants to rely on Cao Cao to survive, but Liu Miao is just a fool, he never understands that Xu Ji did not attack him because he lacked a legitimate excuse. Now he has become Cao Cao's shield to block Xu Jinan from going to the ground without knowing it, as for Liu Bei, he is just new to Yizhou. The Yizhou family originally just wanted to find a shield, so they chose to betray Liu Yan. made Liu Bei the lord of Yizhou, Liu Bei knew what his status was in Yizhou, how could he bear it? The only advantage is that he is a member of the Han family. Liu Bei's only reliance was to increase his prestige. And that's not surprising. After a pause, Liao Li said again: "I went to the Yizhou military camp to understand Pang Tong." Jingzhou is full of talents. After you Pang Tong is gone, there are countless hidden dragons and crouching tigers, who may not be inferior to you Pang Tong. There is no need for Zhou Yu to supervise the horse. You can't even pass the level of my Liao Li. ”

When everyone heard this, they all sneered and agreed. Liao Litu smiled again: "Of course, I won't let him go easily, hmph, I don't have to worry about me, I don't have to cheat." The map of the Yizhou army is fake, but at least the person who led the way this time knows the real road map, and if we want to get the map of Shu, we don't necessarily have to stop at this point, in the long run, as long as the person who leads the way willingly opens his mouth, we can still get the real map. ”

Everyone was taken aback by Liao Li's cold expression, and even Huang Zhong, a brave and fierce man, had a feeling of cold sweat. Huang Zhong's face was solemn, and he said to Liao Li in a deep voice: "Mr. Liao Li means ......"

Liao Li squinted his eyes, restrained the light in his eyes, and said with a smile: "I heard that the leader of the army this time is Zhang Song, a famous man from the Zhang family in Yizhou. I think this kid is the one who knows how to enter Shu. ”

Zhang Yun couldn't help but ask, "How does Mr. know?" Liao Li still said in his unhurried tone: "Everyone doesn't know that this Zhang Song once participated in the Second Candidate Alliance organized by the dead ghost Yuan Shao, and he is not the representative of Yizhou. ”

Everyone nodded their heads to indicate that they had heard about it.

Liao Li sneered: "Haven't you thought about what Zhang Song's purpose was when he went to participate in the Zhuhou Conference in his personal capacity? Everyone was puzzled, only Huang Zhong, who was quite intelligent, lit up with a pair of tiger eyes, and said in a deep voice: "Could it be that Zhang Song wanted to give the 'map of Shu' to Yuan Shao at that time?" ”

Liao Li nodded and said: "That's right, although I haven't seen it in person, but in combination with today's events, Zhang Song must have the map of Shu in his mind." Otherwise, today's march to search for the traces of the Yanzhou army, what kind of excitement did Zhang Song come to join? Don't forget that Zhang Song is a person who doesn't understand military affairs at all. How would he help in the military? Everyone had a feeling of sudden enlightenment in their hearts when they heard this, Liao Li's analysis made perfect sense, it seemed that this Zhang Song did know the map of Shu.

Liao Li didn't give everyone more time to think, but turned to look at Zhang Yun and said in a deep voice: "General Zhang Yun, you have a lot of well-trained people, it's best to send someone to Yizhou immediately disguised as a foot merchant to infiltrate Yizhou, and give me a good investigation of Zhang Song's shortcomings and weaknesses, which can be used by us." ”

Zhang Yun clenched his fists and said solemnly: "Zhang Yun knows." "Turning around, it is natural to arrange everything. Liao Li took a deep breath and said: "Although Cao Mengde swears that he has a way to deal with Xu Ji, but I don't believe that Cao Cao will defeat Xu Ji, although Cao Cao's talent is indeed not under Xu Ji, but just in case, we can't put all our hopes on Cao Mengde's body, Yizhou is the natural barrier of my Jingzhou, and we must not lose it." However, we should not rely too much on Yizhou, and we must prevent it and suppress it. “

Everyone should say yes in unison. Liao Li's face suddenly showed a relaxed smile, and he said to everyone: "Now I will go to the camp of the Yizhou army to ask for a map." The reason is that it is convenient to march, hmph, I see that the Yizhou army has any reason to refuse me. ”

There were knowing smiles on everyone's faces. (To be continued......)
