Chapter 506: No Choice! Liu Zhang's helplessness
"Lord, now our entire Xichuan is panicked, and I hope that the lord will prepare early!"
A scribe said in a hurry, but this person is Huang Quan Huang Gongheng, if the player is here, he will definitely know this person. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
You must know that this person is a rare person in Shu who has a big picture view, but later generations have warned Liu Zhang not to accept Liu Bei.
He has been highly praised by Liu Bei and Sima Yi, and it can be said that Huang is the best in Shu, especially in this period, but he is loyal to Liu Zhang.
Because this person was appreciated by Liu Zhang a few years ago, it is said that Liu Zhang has the grace of knowing him, even if the army on the edge of the town is strong now, but he still has no intention of giving up Liu Zhang.
"Gong Heng, now we don't have so many troops for a while, but the newly established army has not formed a combat force, and it is impossible to go out for a while, I don't know what you think."
A trace of bitterness flashed in Liu Zhang's eyes and he said slowly, he was very helpless when he said this, but now he wanted to see what these subordinates thought.
For a while, the lobby fell into a hesitation, because this matter is not simple, if you accidentally leave a bad impression in front of your own lord, it will be worth the loss.
And basically no one present would think that Xichuan's destruction this time was at most the result of cutting the land and seeking peace, so everyone was silent for a while.
"My lord, Song has something to say."
Just when everyone was silent, a middle-aged scribe with a strange and ugly appearance stood up and said, but everyone did not underestimate this middle-aged scribe.
"Yongnian, if you have any ideas, just say it."
A hint of joy flashed in Liu Zhang's eyes, it is better to have ideas than no ideas, not to mention that it is imminent now, and even he is not confident that the guards of other counties can hold out for how long.
It's just that he didn't know that his expression was reduced by one point in Zhang Song's heart, because the general trend of the Central Plains has not yet been decided.
Zhang Song was not as disappointed as Liu Zhang was later, after all, the heroes Zhuolu, who is in this world is not yet known, and Liu Zhang also occupies Xichuan, plus the Han family.
It may not be impossible to send troops to the Central Plains like Liu Gaozu and complete the task of dominating the world, but the sudden attack of the Zhenbian army broke all this.
Zhang Song began to be disappointed in Liu Zhang's heart, you must know that they didn't even know when the Zhenbian Army had such strength, which showed the intelligence gap between the two sides.
However, he did his best to obey the fate of heaven, and now because Zhang Song did not have the option of the Ming Lord in his heart, he had to help Liu Zhang survive this catastrophe.
Of course, the confidence in his heart was not as strong as he imagined, because the army on the edge of the town poured out, and it was obvious that he was prepared.
Even after preparing for this battle for several years, he may not have seen Wu Tian, but he has heard of Wu Tian.
However, he is different from ordinary people in that he can see some things that ordinary people can't see from his performance, such as in the previous Battle of Luoyang.
Although Wu Tian didn't play much of it, he could see that the town border army was obviously not doing their best, and there was not much news even after that.
It didn't stand out as a surprise, but in his eyes, it was the biggest thing that was wrong, to know what age the lord of the town's border army was.
But it is the age of spring breeze pride, how can it not like to be in the limelight, no matter how it is, it is impossible to be so bland that no news has come out.
However, the reality is that there is no news coming out, so there are not many possibilities, Zhang Song didn't think much about it at that time, but now the more he thinks about it, the more dignified his mood becomes.
"Now because we don't have enough troops in Xichuan, it is definitely impossible for all counties to defend."
Zhang Song took the lead in analyzing, and the other people around him couldn't help nodding secretly, although they didn't admit it, but this was the current situation of their Xichuan.
"So this requires that the lord must have a trade-off, some counties must give up, and some places must be defended, even if the soldiers are lost, they will not hesitate."
A glimmer of light flashed in Zhang Song's eyes and he continued, but after seeing that everyone present was deep in thought, he smiled slightly in his heart.
"And Song believes that in addition to Shu County, where we are located, the most important thing is Ba County, because our way to the north is blocked by Zhang Lu, and Ba County is the only way for us to enter and exit."
After the words fell, a glimmer of light flashed in everyone's eyes, and they seemed to have found a clue.
"Yongnian means that we give up the county and divide the army to defend Ba County, okay?!"
Liu Zhang also understood the meaning of Zhang Songhua and said slowly, although his face was a little ugly, but this was the best way.
"Not only that, because the army on the edge of the town is menacing, there are as many as 50,000 people who have invaded Ba County alone, and there are even 100,000 troops on the side, they can give up attacking Shu County and turn to Ba County at any time, so Song's suggestion is that it is enough to keep half of Ba County, and only need to leave a passage in and out for us Xichuan."
After Liu Zhang's words fell, Zhang Song shook his head, and then said unhurriedly.
It's just that the words that came out were shocked in the hearts of the people present, because Zhang Song wasn't saying that they couldn't even defend a county in Xichuan, but after hearing Zhang Song's reason, everyone was silent.
Because as Zhang Song said, the Zhenbian army can turn to Ba County at any time, but it is impossible for them to hold a complete Ba County.
The geographical location of Ba County determines all this, the south is connected to Nanban, and the north is connected to Shu County, so it is impossible to completely hold Ba County.
Of course, all this has to be decided by Liu Zhang in the end, and after thinking of this, everyone's eyes couldn't help but look at their own father-in-law, wanting to know how he chose.
After Liu Zhang saw everyone's eyes, he also knew that they should have no other way, and after thinking of this, his face couldn't help but flicker.
Because in addition to the Shu County where he is located, Xichuan also has four surrounding counties, and now he is asked to give up to only part of Ba County, which makes him how willing to accept it.
It's just that after thinking of the strength of the town's border army, he closed his eyes, and secretly said with a trace of hatred in his heart, sooner or later, one day, I, Liu Zhang, will take all this back.
"Where is Meng Da!"
"Lord!"
"Order you to lead 30,000 troops to immediately support Yan Yan of Ba County, stop the army on the edge of the town from attacking, and at least hold one passage in and out of Ba County."
"Yes, my lord!"
"Herald!"
"In!"
"Immediately order the counties except Ba County to preserve the living forces and retreat to Shu County."
"Honor!"
When Liu Zhang finished giving the order, everyone present breathed a sigh of relief.
