Chapter 406: Fraud

Wang Yi stopped Zhao Ang and prevented Zhao Ang from letting Liang Xu enter the city easily.

It's not that Wang Yi found any flaws, it's just that Wang Yi feels that this Liang Xu came back a little too quickly.

Don't have already surrendered to the Shu thieves and cooperate with the Shu thieves to defraud the city.

Wang Yi's brain is obviously much stronger than her husband.

"Husband, from Xixian to Ji County, it takes about five days." Wang Yi persuaded Zhao Angdao, "Five days ago, that Jiang Jian just rushed back from Xixian and told his husband Ma Taishou to abandon the city and leave, and today Liang Xu led the rout back to Ji County. Although the defense of Xixian County is weak, it will not be able to stop the Shu thieves for five days, and this matter may be fraudulent. ”

When Zhao Ang heard this, he immediately hesitated.

After all, Zhao Ang knew very well that his wife's brain was indeed stronger than his own, and he relied on his wife's advice to expel Ma Chao, so that he could be appreciated by King Wei and become the assassin of Yizhou.

Therefore, what Wang Yi said, Zhao Ang immediately believed it.

But Jiang Xu listened to it on the side, and it didn't taste good.

Although it is said that Liangzhou women are heroic, are you a little too heroic? !

We are discussing in the state capital, and you are a woman who is not good to stay in the back house, and you still ran out to offer advice?!

And it's very likely that you're right.

Don't say it, Jiang Xu also thinks so, he also thinks that Liang Xu came back this time to defraud the city gate, and he may be followed by the main force of the Shu army.

It's okay now, let a woman see through it.

Jiang Xu thinks that although he doesn't know if the commander of the Shu army has his brain pumping and using such a superficial strategy, he has to help save it for the sake of Jiang's future.

"Madame's words are indeed true!" Jiang Xu first affirmed Wang Yi's statement, but then said, "However, that Liang Xu, after all, is engaged in Tianshui County, if it is really defeated, I will not let him enter the city for fear of instability in the city!" ”

Jiang Xuna means that you don't forget, the Liang family is also a wealthy family in Tianshui County.

If Liang Xu is really a spy, then you don't let him enter the city in the past, but if it's not, the Liang family will really say the opposite.

When Jiang Xu said this, Zhao Ang felt that what Jiang Xu said made sense.

Wang Yi, on the other hand, had a flash in his eyes and asked quietly, "Then according to Jiang Juncheng's opinion, what should be done about this matter?!" ”

Jiang Xu smiled slightly, and said, "This matter is also simple, the army has its own routine to order Liang Xu and others, take off their armor, throw away their weapons and enter the city, the soldiers will be detained, and Liang Xu will be guarded, so even if it is internal, it is useless." ”

Wang Yi was slightly surprised, he really didn't expect this Jiang Xu to say this.

To be honest, Wang Yi didn't believe Jiang Xu, after all, the Jiang family and the Zhao family had never been very compatible, Jiang Xu suddenly asked his husband to preside over the overall situation this time, and Wang Yi didn't believe that Jiang Xu would be so kind.

Therefore, the question just now was actually a temptation by Wang Yi, testing Jiang Xu's true thoughts.

If Jiang Xu really has two hearts, he should defend Liang Xu at this time. But Jiang Xu didn't, on the contrary, he also gave a good way not to anger the Liang family, but still to ensure the safety of Ji County.

Wang Yi has nothing to say about this.

Zhao Ang saw that his wife stopped talking, and naturally understood that this was a good way, so he quickly complied. This is the scene where Liang Xu was besieged outside Ji County.

And now, the soldiers brought by Liang Xu have been handed over to Zhao Ang's personal guards for temporary detention, and Liang Xu himself has been taken to Zhao Ang's mansion for interrogation by Zhao Ang himself.

Of course, Jiang Xu was also present.

After Liang Xu entered the city, although he was controlled, he was not arrested at the first time, but was only asked to go to Zhao Ang's mansion. I feel a little at ease.

After seeing Zhao Ang, he found that Jiang Xu was also present, and Liang Xu had a little confidence in the end.

"What does Zhao Tingshi mean?!" Liang Xu held his head high, made a posture of indignation, and asked.

And Zhao Ang scolded, according to his wife's meaning, "Bold Liang Xu, you have already surrendered to Shukou, but now you have come to deceive my city, can An hide it from me?!" ”

Scare it, cheat it, maybe Liang Xu will be exposed. This is the king's paganism.

Seriously, Liang Xu was indeed taken aback, thinking that the matter had been exposed. But after all, he was born in a family, and the city still has this, so he quietly glanced at Jiang Xu beside Zhao Ang.

Jiang Xu's performance was very calm and calm, looking down at the floor tiles in front of him, as if he hadn't heard anything.

Liang Xu suddenly stabilized.

If Zhao Ang really saw through his plan and had already explained Jiang Xu, then Jiang Xu's reaction at this time should be to draw his sword and threaten himself, definitely not standing in place.

So, this is a trick.

Liang Xu, who understood it, immediately made a look of anger and rushed to the crown, and said to Zhao Ang, "Why did Zhao Tingshi say this?!" Matthew fled from the battle, and we were ordered by the king to hold on to the city against the thieves. If the assassin wants to cure me of the crime of defeating the army, Xu has nothing to say, but the assassin is humiliated by the thief, what does this mean?! ”

Zhao Ang was also stunned, he didn't expect Liang Xu's reaction to be so big.

But after listening to Liang Xu's words, Zhao Ang also felt that he really didn't blame Liang Xu for such a big reaction.

Ma Zun didn't see the enemy before he fled, and it was not easy for Liang Xu to stay and hold the city.

Now that he has returned from defeat, he is already full of resentment, and he still doubts him so much If he really did not surrender to the Shu thief, then he would be a good person.

But. Madame's words are generally not wrong.

Zhao Ang watched Liang Xu's emotions become more and more excited, and hurriedly said, "Liang Cheng come slowly, come slowly. Let me ask you, you said that you would hold on to the city, but I don't know how many days?! ”

At this time, it is time to test Liang Xu.

If Liang Xu hesitated, or said that the time was not right, it would be easy for Wang Yi to see through that woman.

At this time, it was Jiang Xu who also sweated for Liang Xu.

But Liang Xu said without any hesitation, "I have been guarding for less than five days!" ”

Zhao Ang seemed to have caught Liang Xu's handle and asked, "Although the city of Xixian is not high, it is not difficult to hold on for more than ten days, why can you only hold on for five days?!" ”

Liang Xu raised his eyes to look at Zhao Ang and said, "The thief army will not attack the city, and will make a detour to the north to attack Ji County. I don't know if the assassin is in West County, what should I do with it?! ”

Hearing this, Zhao Ang paused. yes, what would you do in the face of this situation?!

Stick to the city, but the responsibility is not deep, and it is not a problem to hold on for more than ten days, but if the Ji County in the rear does not know the enemy's situation and sends troops to rescue without authorization, wouldn't it be broken by thieves? !

In that case, it is estimated that Zhao Ang will also lead the army out of the city to break through, abandon Xixian, retreat to Ji County, and tell the Ji County defenders about the enemy situation first, so that the Ji County defenders can prepare.

So. Liang Xu's appearance in the city of Ji County is the real loyalty and patriotism, otherwise he can be trapped in Xixian County, sit and watch the ownership of Tianshui and then make a choice, which is the safest.

As soon as he thought of this, Zhao Ang immediately got up, ran to Liang Xu, bowed his hand, and said, "It's me who blamed Liang Cheng, and I ask Liang Zhi to forgive me, forgive me!" ”

At this time, Liang Xu secretly breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, knowing that this level was fooled.

Liang Xu also made a gesture of reluctantly bowing and said, "It's all for the country!" ”

At this time, you can't be particularly earnest, after all, you have just been wronged, and it is normal to have some resentment.

Jiang Xu also stood up at the right time and said to Liang Xu, "The matter is urgent, and I ask Liang to do not blame it, but now that the war situation is urgent, please also ask Liang to ignore the past suspicions, and quickly inform the Shu thieves of the military movements, I will wait to take precautions!" ”

Only then did Liang Xu make a reluctant posture and began to tell the situation of the Shu army that he knew.

"The chief general of the Shu thieves is Zhang Xi, and the forward generals are Wei Yan, Zhang Yi, Jufu and others. Those who besiege Xixian County are also helped. Now the Shu thieves take Zhang Yi as the vanguard general, leading more than 5,000 people, and they are close to the southwest of Ji County fifty miles, and Zhang Xi is no more than seventy miles away from here, but it is only a two-day march. ”

Obviously, in terms of scheming and acting, Zhao Ang is definitely not the opponent of Liang Xu and Jiang Xu.

What Liang Xu said is true, Zhang Xi is indeed less than seventy miles away from Ji County, and there is no adulteration at all, and the vanguard general of Zhang Xi's army is really Zhang Yi. Wei Yan's ass is not good yet, he can't run fast on horseback, and Zhang Xi has to give Zhang Yi some opportunities to make meritorious contributions.

What Liang Xu said was the truth, so no matter how Zhao Ang asked, Liang Xu could answer without the slightest hesitation.

By this time, Zhao Ang had already believed that Liang Xu had indeed fled back to report the news.

After getting the news of the enemy soldiers, Zhao Ang was also a little worried.

The defenders of Ji County are only 5,000 people, even if you add the 4,500 people brought back by Liang Xu, it is only 5,500 people.

According to the information provided by Liang Xu, the number of Zhang Xi's troops was around 20,000. Quadruple difference, it's not easy to fight.

Therefore, Jiang Xu suggested, "Now that the matter is urgent, please also ask Zhao Tingshi to send a letter to Guo Tingshi in Liangzhou quickly, and ask Guo Tingshi to send troops to help quickly!" ”

Zhao Ang suddenly realized, and hurriedly nodded yes.

Immediately afterwards, Liang Xu also hurriedly said, "The assassin still needs to sort out the defense of the city as soon as possible and prepare the equipment to defend the city. In less than two days, the thieves will come, and please take precautions! ”

Zhao Ang continued to nod and said yes again and again.

After that, Zhao Ang ordered Jiang Xu and Liang Xu to go to the city to organize soldiers and arrange defense. Hurry up and find your wife.

Since the expulsion of Ma Chao, Zhao Ang has completely obeyed his wife's words, and of course he has to ask his wife's opinion for such an urgent matter.

And Wang Yima is also a little hesitant now.

After all, the development of things seems to be different from what she thought.
