As the so-called near the water is the first to get the moon, Lu Bu ate a sullen slap from the veteran Huangfu Song in Guanzhong, and angrily mobilized the army, vowing to get back an explanation, the news spread to all directions, and the first to get the news was Zhang Lu in Hanzhong, as well as Ma Teng and Han Sui in Xiliang.

In Hanzhong, Nanzheng, and in the study in the Taishou Mansion, Zhang Lu, who had a bearded face, was closing his eyes and meditating under the candlelight, and only Gongcao was engaged in Yanpu as a companion.

Zhang Lu was entrenched in Hanzhong, and it took less than a year to work.

In the second year of Chuping (191), Yizhou Mu Liu Yan worshiped Zhang Lu as the governor of Sima, and together with Sima Zhang Xiu of other departments, he led the army to attack Hanzhong Taishou Sugu.

Zhang Xiunai was the leader of Wudou Midao, and when Zhang Jiao led the Taiping Taoist congregation to set off the Yellow Turban Rebellion, he also raised troops in Hanzhong in response, but was soon expelled from Hanzhong by Hanzhong Taishou Sugu and returned to Bajun to continue his unfinished business. After receiving the help of Liu Yan, the pastor of Yizhou, he successfully broke through Hanzhong and killed the old rival Hanzhong Taishou Sugu, but he never thought about it, and was killed by Zhang Lu, and his subordinates, and even the five buckets of rice Daodao that he founded, were also fully accepted by Zhang Lu.

Zhang Lu's behavior is also from the instruction of Yizhou Mu Liu Yan, compared to Zhang Xiu, Zhang Lu should be more trusted by Liu Yan, because of Zhang Lu's mother, good health, there is little tolerance, can freely haunt the state pastor mansion of Yizhou Mu Liu Yan, and won Liu Yan's respect.

It's just that I pity Zhang Xiu, when he is dying, I don't know that he was calculated by Liu Yan, and he made wedding clothes for others in vain.

The beard on Zhang Lu's face is the most eye-catching, followed by his majestic body, with a thick back and broad shoulders, a huge head, a square face, and no anger and self-authority. very different from ordinary people,

In fact, the statement behind the scenes is that Zhang Lu has the posture of a king, but it is only because of this that it is taboo, so it is said in general terms that it is rich and noble.

On the contrary, Gong Cao is engaged in Yan Pu is white-skinned. With a slender figure, narrow eyes, and a smart mind, he knows that he is a scholar at a glance.

At this moment, seeing Zhang Lu there with his eyes closed, Yan Pu stared at Zhang Lu without blinking. Gradually, it became a little more confusing. Intoxicated.

Even the fair-skinned and slender ten fingers. It's all tangled up at the moment.

After a while, Zhang Lu suddenly opened his eyes, and what he saw was Yan Pu's wonderful eyes, as well as a few hints of blush on Junbai's face.

Zhang Lu coughed dryly and turned his head. asked: "Lu Butun soldiers Fenglingdu, want to use the soldiers in the pass, what do you think about this?" Does Hanzhong want to send troops to help? ”

Yan Pu grinned, matched with rosy lips. The white and neat teeth are quite a bit charming and charming, and Zhang Lu was stunned for a while.

"The lord asked, but did he make up his mind to participate in the dragon battle in Guanzhong?"

Zhang Lu shook his head and replied, "That's exactly what I want to ask." ”

Speaking of business, Yan Pu put away his smile, and his handsome face was a little more solemn, and he nodded in response: "The lord is new to Hanzhong, and he deigns to be under the account of the king of Shu, it stands to reason that he should sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight." However, once Lu Bu won Guanzhong, his prestige was high, and he was bound to move King Hongnong to stay in Guanzhong, at that time, Hanzhong and Guanzhong were only separated by a mountain, and Lu Bu was afraid that it would be difficult for the lord to sleep. ”

Speaking of sleeping on the couch and other words, Yan Pujun's white face was a little flushed, and even Zhang Lu was a little distracted, and his eyes were a little straight.

Fortunately, he was only stunned for a moment, Zhang Lu came back to his senses, his face was worried, he sighed, and said quietly: "Alas, I am also worried about this matter, Lu Bu won Guanzhong, and took Guanzhong as the foundation, Xiliang, Hanzhong, must be his first choice for using soldiers, as a barrier in Guanzhong, but Hanzhong has few soldiers and is tired, even if he has the heart to fight against Lu Bu with Huangfu Song, it is also powerless." ”

Yan Pu took over the conversation and responded: "The lord has a high opinion, in fact, according to Pu's opinion, things are not so simple. ”

"Oh?!"

Met Zhang Lu's inquiring eyes, Yan Pu replied: "Huangfu Song is loyal and upright, although I don't know why he wanted to kill Lu Bu after the peace talks, so as to attract Lu Bu's army to coerce, the lord wants to send troops to help, and he is kind, but I am afraid that Huangfu Song will be regarded as a wolf's heart and dog lungs." ”

"Huh?!"

This time, Zhang Lu really exclaimed, he couldn't understand, Huangfu Song faced Lu Bu, he had to face the world-famous Bingzhou Iron Cavalry, how to say, Huangfu Song had to be at a disadvantage, if he really sent an army to help, how could he be regarded as a wolf's heart and dog lungs by Huangfu Song?

Anyone can see that Zhang Lu has the heart to swallow Guanzhong at this time, but he can't eat it with a big mouth.

Yan Pu Haha smiled and explained: "There has always been no friendship between the lord and Huangfu Song, even the king of Shu, and there is no contact between Huangfu Song, and sending troops to help at this time will only attract the suspicion of Huangfu Song; Second, Huangfu Song is a battlefield general, meritorious and good at using soldiers, even if he does not have a brave general like Lu Bu under his command, he is bound to be full of confidence in his heart, and he can repel Lu Bu. ”

"Then ......" Zhang Lu hesitated a little and asked, "Do you just let Lu Bu win Guanzhong?" ”

Yan Pu smiled but didn't answer, and asked a little sourly: "The lord is so confident in Lu Bu of Bingzhou?" ”

Zhang Lu was stunned for a moment, and replied calmly: "No matter what Huang Fu Song thinks, in my opinion, once Lu Bu uses troops against Guanzhong, Huang Fu Song will probably not be able to resist, Huang Fu Song is good at using troops, but he is old, and he has not yet recognized the situation, it is no longer the time for him to be reckless, just look at Lu Bu only led 300 cavalry, and even killed Huang Fu Song's second son Huang Fu Li, the general Yan Xing, to know that Huang Fu Song is not Lu Bu's opponent. ”

At the end, Zhang Lu sighed and said quietly: "Actually, if Huangfu Song recognizes the situation clearly, after the peace talks, welcoming King Hongnong and Lu Bu into the main pass is the best strategy for him to protect his family for the rest of his life." ”

Yan Pu deeply agreed with Zhang Lu's assertion, when it came to the way of wholelife and health preservation, Zhang Lu was the best in it, and he also followed his ancestor Zhang Ling, his father Zhang Heng's lifelong research, since he thought so, it showed that Huangfu Song was indeed old and troubled.

The two were silent for a long time, but Zhang Lu broke the silence and asked, "Since Mr. said so, can I just do nothing and sit and watch Lu Buquan take the pass?" ”

"No!"

Yan Pu replied quickly, pondered for a moment, raised his finger and pointed in the direction of Bashu, and said in a low voice: "If the lord is not condescending to the king of Shu, there is no need for Pu Duo to persuade him, the lord should also know that if he can sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight, and then if Lu Bu can help the court pacify the princes of all parties and choose the opportunity to return to the court, it is the way to live a whole life." Now it is not the case, why not the lord to the king of Shu suggested, increase the army in Hanzhong, take the opportunity to take the opportunity of Lu Bu and Huangfu Song in the middle of the fierce battle in Guanzhong, the troops out of the meridian valley, cut off the back road and grain road of Lu Bu's army, so that if Lu Bu is defeated, they are all happy, if Lu Bu is invincible, he still gets Guanzhong, and in the future, it will not fall on the head of the lord, and it will not violate the lord's way of life. ”

"Good!"

Zhang Lu's eyebrows fluttered when he heard it, and he couldn't help but applaud the case, and his palms frequently slapped on the desk, making a snapping sound, and the sound kept ringing.

Yan Pu's idea is indeed wonderful, no matter what the final outcome is, it will not affect Zhang Lu for half a point, but in the end, he will not lose any of them.

The excitement had passed, Zhang Lu quieted down, the smile on his face could not be hidden, and he smiled at Yan Pu: "How to report to the King of Shu and suggest to increase the army, you still have to bother Mr. to write, well, why don't you think about it, Mr., I'll prepare some side dishes and wine, and when Mr. is done, I will have a good drink." ”

Yan Pu's face was flushed, he nodded in agreement, watched Zhang Lu get up and leave, sat upright happily, and carefully considered the words in his heart, making sure that he could not only move Liu Yan, the king of Shu, but also not arouse the suspicion of others.

As for the grinding of ink and other trivial matters, there is a beautiful maid sent by Zhang Lu to do it, and there is no need for Yan Pu to ask in person.

Just when Yan Pu was thinking about the words and Zhang Luxing rushed to prepare the wine and food, Ma Teng, who was far away in Xiliang, was also worried there at this time.

In order to fight against the invincible Han Sui, he directly set up the government to Di Dao in Longxi County, here, is the only place to guard Jincheng into Longxi and Hanyang, starting from Di Dao, through the Woganling Mountain Road, you can reach Yuzhong in Jincheng County, and through the Great Xia City in Longxi County, you can reach Caohan and Heguan, and go straight to Jincheng County Zhiyunwu.

But this time, what he was worried about was a handwritten letter from Hansui in Jincheng.

Since the beginning of the army, the grievances and grievances between him and Han Sui have been entangled, and they were invited by Li Wei to send troops to fight against the Kwantung Coalition led by Yuan Shao, and the relationship between the two of them was the most harmonious at that time.

After that, the Kwantung coalition army collapsed, Huangfu Song revived, occupied Chang'an, he and Han Sui, as well as Zhang Ji, Li Su, led the troops to discuss, as a result, in a daze, he and Han Sui fought instead, at that time, in order to kill Han Sui, he also offered a shocking price to buy Han Sui's head.

However, Han Sui was worthy of his title of the fox of Jincheng, extremely cunning, and in such a dangerous situation, he was unexpectedly returned to Jincheng from Guanzhong, which made Ma Teng angry.

This time, the news of the grievance between Guanzhong Huangfu Song and Lu Bu came, and Han Sui's handwritten letter also came at the right time, which gave Ma Teng a headache.

Under his account, there is a general Pang De and a strong man Ma Chao, but there is a lack of strategists who can give advice, just like Han Sui's letter, if there is a strategist by his side, Ma Teng will not be so worried, but can consult with the strategist.

Just when Ma Teng was worried, Ma Chao had already read Han Sui's letter hastily, and said aloud disapprovingly: "Father, what's so difficult about this matter, Huangfu Song is already extremely hateful, and he deserves to be taken by Lu Fengxian Guanzhong, why does Han Sui suggest sending troops with his father to help Huangfu Song?" ”

"Confused!"

Ma Teng broke off, not angry, turned to his son Ma Chao angrily, looking at him Although he was like an adult, he was actually still underage, and he thought of his mother, and there was a burst of sourness and guilt in his heart, he took a long breath, calmed down his anger, slowly returned to the desk and sat down, looked at Ma Chao, and said seriously: "My son is young, he is still martial, and he is close to Lu Bu because of his martial bravery, but I don't know that once Lu Bu gets Guanzhong, the first thing to bear the brunt of it is Xiliang."
