Chapter 556: Greeting
After Zhang Lu spent a few days crossing Micang Mountain, he was relieved that there were no pursuers behind him, but at this moment, he suddenly got the news that there was an "enemy" in front of him!
Although it is not certain that it is an "enemy", in short, it is not his own people......
After a little hesitation, Zhang Lu also understood the truth of "whether it is a blessing or a curse, and it is a disaster that cannot be avoided" - it is too late to turn around and go back at this time, people are sleepy and tired, and there is Micang Mountain Road behind, how can he escape?
So Zhang Lu chose to take advantage of the fact that the "enemy army" did not come, wash up first, change into the robe of the Heavenly Master, and not lose the bearing of the Heavenly Master!
After that, wait for the other party to come......
I saw that after the army with the banner of the Chu army arrived, the first person flew forward directly with armor, and it was actually a golden and jade general!
"In front of Han Ninghou?" The general of the Chu army shouted.
"It's this Heavenly Master!" Zhang Lu replied with his head held high.
"In front of Han Ninghou?" As if he hadn't heard, the general of the Chu army asked again.
Zhang Lu frowned a little, thinking that the other party didn't hear clearly, and when he was about to answer again, Yan Pu next to him stepped forward and whispered a few words in his ear, and after Zhang Lu heard it, there was some annoyance in his eyes.
However, in the end, he did not have a seizure, but honestly replied again: "Hanning Hou Zhang Lu is here!" β
The Jin Yu general of the Chu State finally understood, and hurriedly landed in front of the army of the Marquis of Hanning, and beckoned the Chu army to slowly catch up.
Seeing this scene, the generals of the Heavenly Master's Mansion were a little nervous, and the soldiers also held their weapons one after another.
As if he hadn't seen it, the Jin Yu general of the Chu State arched his hand to Zhang Lu and said, "Lord Hanninghou is fine!" Hearing that the Xiliang bandit army had invaded Hanzhong, our king couldn't sleep at night and couldn't eat sweetly, lest the reinforcements be too late, so that the people of Hanzhong and the Marquis of Hanning were robbed...... Ay! It's a pity that it's still a step too late, since Lord Hanninghou is here, I think Hanzhong has completely fallen, right? β
Zhang Lu was upset by the generals of the Chu army for a while, but he still replied: "Not bad...... Nan Zheng has been lost! It's just that the Xiliang bandit army is blindly murderous, and my Heavenly Master Dao is stable in Hanzhong. A decree can get 100,000 soldiers, and if His Royal Highness the King of Chu is willing to help and regain Hanzhong, it will only be a matter of hand. β
While not stimulating the Chu army, Zhang Lu also tried his best to emphasize his "popular aspirations" in Hanzhong.
Yan Pu secretly smiled bitterly on the sideβhe naturally heard what Zhang Lu was thinking!
A few days ago, Yan Pu was on the road, and he also analyzed the current situation in the world for Zhang Lu.
Now that Han, Wei, and Chu have stabilized themselves, it seems that it is the time for a new round of war, and the previous six or seven years of "being quite stable" are afraid to be completely broken.
As the key point of the auxiliary Han forces, "Hanzhong" is undoubtedly very dangerous under such circumstances.
In the past, Hanzhong was able to be preserved, in addition to the geographical advantage, but also because Guanzhong withered, Longxi was chaotic, and Liu Zhang in Xichuan was a waste, so he was "invincible".
But now Hanzhong has become the focus of the world's chaos, and just "geographical advantages" are not enough to protect themselves!
For today's plan, either choose one to vote, or be ready to conquer the world.
Of course, the latter was entirely to take care of Zhang Lu's face, and Yan Pu had never thought of this possibility.
As for choosing one to vote, the Wei State, which is separated by the auxiliary Han forces, must not be able to count on it, and there are only two choices - the Han family and the Chu State!
Neither option is very good......
The former is emotional, Zhang Lu has a lot of resistance, although Yan Pu also explained that taking refuge in the Han family is not the same as taking refuge in Liu Zhang, it is completely possible to win over Ma Teng and Han Sui, and join forces with the Xiliang family to resist the suppression of the clan system, but it is still foreseeable that Zhang Lu's treatment will definitely not be very good!
Latter......
Chu State, first of all, the geographical advantage is not suitable, Chu State wants to enter Hanzhong, the location is very "don't feet", it is difficult to take "Badong-Bazhong-Micang Mountain", and it is almost impossible to go against Hanshui!
In this way, for a long time, the state of Chu may not be able to recover Hanzhong at all, and in the end, if there is only Bazhong, Zhang Lu will be almost the same as "naked".
Then for the state of Chu, the meaning of Zhang Lu's existence is only "when he attacks Hanzhong in the future, he may be able to use it".
Similarly, for Zhang Lu, there is no guarantee of treatment......
Of course, the difference between the two is that if you take refuge in the Chu State, no matter how good your personal safety is, you will be guaranteed, but I am afraid that there will be nothing to do in your career, especially Zhang Lu is more concerned about the mission of the Heavenly Master, I am afraid that the Chu State will not help.
At that time, I am afraid that it will be the same as Yu Ji, and to build a Taoist temple, you must go to the Taishi Bureau to report and wait for approval, and all the teachings must be submitted to the Taishi Bureau for review before issuance, so as to implement the "values" of the Chu State.
The two options that are not very good are in front of him, and Zhang Lu will decisively choose the second one, after all, the grudge between him and the old Liu family is not just talking.
It's just that......
Since "it's not very good", Zhang Lu is not in a hurry to decide, but "if you have to choose", he will choose Chu State.
And this is Yan Pu's judgment a few days ago!
Now the first thing that Yan Pu expected has already appeared-the Chu State actually entered Bazhong first.
This made Yan Pu a little worried about the current situation of Hanchang, as well as ...... The purpose of the Chu State now!
Yan Pu could guess that Zhang Lu expected Bai to prostitute Chu Jun to help him recover Hanzhong, and he was afraid that he would not get his wish, no matter how much he emphasized his role in Hanzhong, but Yan Pu did care about Chu Jun's reaction later.
As for Zhang Lu himself......
With Yan Pu's understanding of him, Zhang Lu should still be able to make the right choice in the end, but he still can't learn to make a choice at the best time, and he will "die and struggle" first.
After listening to Zhang Lu's words, the Jin Yu general of the Chu State smiled and said, "Don't worry, Han Ninghou!" The king of my family always thinks about the people in the world, and the people in Hanzhong are also the heart of the king, and they will definitely find a way...... It's just such a big thing, and the last general can't be the master, and now he is just on the order of Commander Zhao to welcome Lord Han Ninghou. β
Zhang Lu was angry for a while when he heard this, and the other party seemed to cater to him, but he always emphasized the concept of "the Chu State rescued the people of Hanzhong", and never mentioned "supporting the Marquis of Hanning", the meaning of which is self-evident.
Seeing Zhang Lu's straight face, Yan Pu asked on his behalf behind Zhang Lu, "I don't know the name of this general?" And also...... What is the situation in Hanchang today? β
General Jin Yu, even in the current era of continuous "inflation", is still considered first-class, but there are too many gold and jade in Chu State, and it is not easy to guess!
"Disrespect, disrespect, the last general is Chen Dao, the commander of the Wangjing Theater and the Second Division of Wancheng, and now my Commander Zhao of the Wangjing Theater is personally sitting in Hanchang, and the Marquis of Hanning don't have to worry." Chen Zhihan said with a smile.
Zhang Lu: ......
Zhang Lu really wanted to ask: Why is "my" Hanchang, it is you Commander Zhao who is in charge?
