At the meeting, Guo Si suddenly stood up and made his own remarks, which couldn't help but attract the kings to look at each other.

Although Liu Zhang didn't know what Guo Si was thinking, he was very nervous at the moment, and wanted to secretly raise his hand and pull Guo Si's sleeve to make him sit down, but he was afraid of being seen by some irrelevant person, so he had to lower his head and pretend to be deaf and dumb without squeaking.

Meng Shu stared at Guo Si for a while, and suddenly said: "Although Liu Zhang is the guest who we brought the cave master to live, but after all, he is a Han person, and now I am waiting for the kings to discuss the seizure of the land of the Han people in Xichuan, and in the capacity of Er, I am afraid that it is not suitable for observers, right?" In other words, it seems to have the meaning of expelling people.

Guo Si had no different color on his face, but he still maintained the smile like a prodigal son on weekdays, and said: "King Meng doesn't need to be suspicious, the Han people and the barbarians are fighting for Xichuan, which has nothing to do with my family Liu Yizhou, but Liu Bei is the enemy who forcibly seized the back cover of my lord, and this hatred is not shared!" In this respect, my lord and the kings should be on the same side on this matter, and although they have different ideas, they have the same purpose, so why should they force each other apart? ”

Meng Shu couldn't help but be stunned when he heard this.

Huoshendong Zhu Jiao touched his beard, nodded and said: "Mr. Guo Si's words are good, not to mention that the opinion he just made is also very in line with our current situation, there are many kings here, if we don't elect a leader...... Or the leader of the alliance, he really can't compete with the soldiers and horses in Sichuan! What do you think? ”

Barbarian kings, you look at me, I look at you, and they all nodded in agreement.

But who should the leader of this alliance choose?

The first vulture bone got up first and said: "King Meng is the youngest of the kings, he can be described as a young hero, and he is brave and brave, this king chooses King Meng as the leader of the alliance!" ”

Bringing the cave master, he said: "The god of fire wishes the old cave master to be respectful, and his prestige has been stationed in Nanzhong for more than 20 years, which can be described as deep-rooted. This king chooses to wish the old cave master as the leader of the alliance! ”

King Mulu: "The King of the Vulture Bone is the first warrior of the Southern Barbarians, invincible to 10,000 people, and this king thinks he is the most suitable!" ”

“…………”

“…………”

The kings chirped, you said a word to me, and I didn't finalize a specific candidate for a long time, but in the end, King Duosi deserved the name of a wise man, and said: "Ladies and gentlemen, according to this king, Liu Yizhou is a guest in Nanzhong. Regardless of the interests of our clans, his words are still more objective and fair, so why don't you listen to his opinions? ”

When Liu Zhang heard this, he was first excited, but he quietly looked at Guo Si beside him, Guo Si squeezed his eyes at him, and then nodded encouragingly.

Liu Zhang seemed to have gained strength in an instant, plucked up the courage, and recited the words that he had said to Guo Si before he came.

"Ladies and gentlemen. With Zhang, the position of the leader of the alliance cannot be seen by courage or age. As we all know, Zhang has a deep friendship with the old cave master of the Huoshen Cave, and he is reasonable. When recommending the old cave master, but it is related to the foundation of Nanzhong and the future of you, Liu Zhang cannot abolish the public for personal reasons. Although the old cave master is highly respected, but after all, he is old, in courage and spirit, he is already greatly inferior to young people, as we all know, the barbarian king Meng Huo, young, quite majestic, but also has great wisdom and bravery, and the powerful gang, is really the best candidate for the alliance leader! Although Liu Zhang has some gaps with him, he is in charge of justice, and the position of the leader of the alliance is really indispensable to King Meng. ”

When he said this, he couldn't help but be surprised, the kings never thought that Liu Zhang not only did not recommend Zhu Jiaohe, who had a good relationship with him, but recommended Meng Shu, who was the opposite of him, and he said it honestly, all for the sake of the overall situation, and it can be said that he was broad-minded.

I don't know who took the lead, everyone actually applauded Liu Zhang.

In the end, Meng Shu really became the leader of the alliance, responsible for leading the clans to attack Xichuan together.

After the meeting, Liu Zhang and Guo Si went back to the camp together, and halfway through, Liu Zhang asked Guo Sidao in a low voice.

"Sir, you don't know what you keep saying that if you want to support me as the lord of Nanzhong, Meng Shu must be the biggest enemy, and he must be pulled out! But today you asked me to recommend him as the leader of the alliance and establish his prestige, why is that? ”

Guo Si smiled and said: "Liu Yizhou, you are a sincere person, I don't know the mystery of this, all the clans put their interests first, on the surface, this alliance leader is majestic, and the prestige of leading all clans is very high, but in fact it is a thankless chore...... Since he is the leader of the alliance, he has a very large share since he is the first in everything, that is to say, whether it is from the source of troops or the grain, Meng Huo has to take the most as the leader of the alliance, if he does not take the most, he will inevitably be hostile to the kings, and this is one of them...... Second, when the states and counties are divided, when the interests are divided, Meng Huo as the leader of the alliance, must be properly distributed, he is unevenly distributed, then he will inevitably be hostile to the kings, this is also, third, Meng Huo is the leader of the alliance, but if he is selfish and known to the kings, he will inevitably be hostile to it, hehe, if you want to be the leader of the alliance, you must have the corresponding means and trade-offs, but unfortunately Meng Huo does not have that ability, this alliance leader, will not only weaken his strength, but also weaken his prestige, you just look at it. ”

When Liu Zhang heard this, he couldn't help but suddenly realize: "It turns out that Mr. asked me to push a disgusting person's errand to him?" It's a pity that Meng Shu didn't expect this critical layer, and thanked me. ”

Guo Si said: "It's not just Meng Shu, today's words have greatly changed the kings' impression of Liu Yizhou, at least from the impassioned and empathetic way you just now, they at least won't treat you as an outsider." ”

Liu Zhang couldn't help but give a thumbs up and said, "Just by choosing an alliance leader, there are so many things to say, Mr. is really an extraordinary person." ”

***********************

On the Nanzhong side, Jin Luo was agitating, and on the Xichuan side, the Yongliang army under the command of Zhao Yun had already fought straight in.

Zhao Yun sent a three-way vanguard army, leading the general Hao Zhao to lead 50,000 elite soldiers straight out of the valley, building roads in the mountains, building bridges in the water, and sending Zhang Xiu to lead 50,000 elite soldiers out of Luogu, repairing bridges, digging mountains and breaking stones, and general Wang Ping led 50,000 troops out of the Meridian Valley, Zhao Yun and the rest of the generals followed, and came to Hanzhong in the starry night.

Zhao Yun's generals have only one line, that is, the soldiers are noble and fast, and they must not stop!

The army was sharp and went straight to Yangping Pass.

At this time, Pang Tong and Wei Yan and others had not yet arrived, and it was the famous general of Shuzhong, Huo Jun, who guarded Yangping Pass, which could be said to be the best general under Liu Bei's account.

In the battle of Hanzhong that year, Huo Jun was a relatively outstanding person, but at that time he often coughed, and his physical condition did not seem to be very good, and now he is becoming more and more strict, and he is already lying on the bed to recuperate, but at first glance, when he heard that the northern army was coming, Huo Jun did not dare to rest, and hurriedly got up, while dispatching troops, he quickly sent men and horses to the rear to urge reinforcements.

The three-way vanguard army cleared the obstacles and arrived at Yangping Pass, Zhang Xiu came to the pass on a horse, and vaguely saw Huo Jun personally guarding the pass, raising his whip and shouting: "Listen to the thief on the pass, I am Zhang Xiu, the king of guns in the north!" Every time the order of the governor of the capital is to raise the heavenly soldiers to cut down Shu, those who know each other hurry up and surrender early, and hire according to their original positions. ”

Huo Jun coughed and sneered, and didn't answer, just ordered the crossbowman to release the arrow.

Zhang Xiu saw that Huo Jun didn't care about him, and couldn't help but lose face for the boss, so he immediately went back to the battle to discuss with Wang Ping and Hao Zhao and discuss the plan.

Hao Zhao said with a smile: "The general knows that Shu Dao is difficult to conquer, especially the majesty of the pass such as Yangping, Sword Pavilion and other places, how long can non-soldiers and horses get it lightly, so all the divine weapons that Ma Jun has urged over the years are deployed on the side of our expedition to Xishu, and now the weapons have not arrived, it is not easy to fight, and after a few days of bed crossbows, after the stone car arrives, it is not too late to let Huo Jun know that it is powerful." ”

Zhang Xiu snorted when she heard this, and said, "It's okay, even if it's cheaper than Huo Jun!" ”

*****************

The three-way vanguard army has arrived at Yangping Pass, Zhao Yun and other people and horses have not arrived in the rear, halfway up, Jia Xu's boss reluctantly followed Zhao Yun's side, he didn't want to wade into this troubled water, but Yuan Shangbian asked him to follow Zhao Yun to the west together, which made Jia Xu very unhappy.

Along the way, he saw that people kept using flying pigeons to pass some information to Zhao Yun, Jia Xu couldn't help but be curious, and finally once he couldn't bear it, and said: "This battle hasn't been fought yet, what kind of information do you always use pigeon whistles to transmit?" But what's the matter? ”

Zhao Yun didn't hide it from Jia Xu, and said: "It's not for anything important, it's really for one person." ”

"Alone?"

"Yes." Zhao Yun nodded and said: "Back then, in Hanzhong, there was a person who was repeatedly defeated, defeated again and again, and made a fuss about being captured and released by our army. ”

Jia Xu's eyes rolled, and he became interested, and said, "Who?" ”

"Wei Yan." (To be continued......)
