Zhang Lu was a missionary, and he was not a dictator when confronted with such political problems, so he once again convened his subordinates to discuss with the military.

In addition to Yang Song, there are naturally Zhang Lu's younger brother Zhang Wei and the soldier Cao and strategist Yan Pu, as well as Yang Ang, Yang Ren and Yang Song's younger brother Yang Bai, who led the troops.

As soon as Zhang Lu threw out the topic, everyone was silent, only Zhang Wei couldn't sit still and stared at Zhang Lu and asked: "Big brother, didn't Wei Sikong already promise that the court would definitely rescue the Hanzhong court, why did you suddenly remember the matter of Guishun, did someone instigate you in private?" This man is not well-intentioned. Zhang Lu glanced at Yang Song a little embarrassed, and Zhang Wei immediately understood and turned to Yang Song and glared angrily: "Yang Song, how does my eldest brother treat you on weekdays, why do you want to persuade me to surrender even if I haven't seen the sword soldiers?" Yang Song was ready to stand up and arch his hand towards Zhang Weigong and said: "The second general misunderstood, Song persuaded the lord to return to Sikong not to surrender, but to climb the high branches. Second general, my Hanzhong is located south of the Qinling Mountains, and I am remembered by Liu Zhang day and night, and sooner or later I will be remembered by the imperial court. Waiting for Wei Sikong to clean up the second Yuan of Kanto, how can Hanzhong block Sikong's hundreds of thousands of male soldiers under the condition of fighting Liu Zhang, Yizhou? Song thought that although it was disrupted today, since Wei Sikong was born, it quickly swept away a large area of territory including Sili, Bingzhou, and Yongliang, and defeated the invincible Dong Zhuo, expelled the Southern Xiongnu who had been entrenched in Bingzhou for many years, and pacified the Qiang people who had been harassing the Han frontier for a hundred years. With Sikong's financial resources and troops, who can stop him from unifying? Rather than being captured and surrendered at the end of the road, it is better to be a minister of the dragon. The lord has been too guarded to the court, and he must also be a third prince and nine kings, and the second general can also lead the troops to make meritorious contributions and become the real canonized generals of the imperial court in the future, and the future of all of you here is much brighter than that of me and other snails living in Hanzhong. Yan Pu can think of these truths, and Zhang Lu can understand them with a little addition, but Zhang Wei was dumbfounded when he heard it, he couldn't contact Wei Xuan before he co-authored it, and he could still deal with Liu Zhang, but now Wei Xuan promised to support but there was no way out.

Zhang Wei was naturally unconvinced, although Yang Song said that he could be a general under Wei Xuan, but it was good to have his brother there, and his brother was unhappy that day and directly gave up the position of Taishou to himself.

So Zhang Wei turned to Yan Pu and asked, "What does Yan Bing Cao think, is it true that my Hanzhong has reached the point where there is no way out?" Yan Pu was pondering there, he had been pondering the details of the rescue that Xu Shu had discussed with him these days after hearing Zhang Lu say that he could return to Wei Xuan, and now he understood that Xu Shu's half was to give himself and Hanzhong a reassurance, promising that if Liu Zhang's army came to attack, as long as Hanzhong sent a request for help as soon as possible, and withstood the first half a month, Wei Xuan would support from Wudu, Tianshui and Nanxiang in three directions, and at most a month the reinforcements from the direction of Chang'an could also arrive.

Such a speed can indeed reassure Hanzhong to let Liu Zhang retreat, but on the contrary, if Wei Xuan unifies Hebei, he can also attack Hanzhong in four directions!

Wei Xuan can be said to be Pingyizhou, and he can destroy Hanzhong with his hand. Thinking of Yang Song's words today and the reactions of other leading generals, Yan Pu felt a hint of crisis, perhaps several of Wei Xuan's envoys had already done the work of the others.

Even Zhang Lu himself may have been shaken. Zhang Lu may just be the temptation of one of the three princes and nine kings in Yang Song's mouth, and the other generals are now just a military marquis and Sima in Hanzhong, at most a school captain, if he can be a general or a general of the imperial court, who can refuse except Zhang Wei?

Yan Pu glanced at Zhang Lu and then at Yang Song, and then turned to Zhang Wei, to be honest, Zhang Wei's question is not easy to answer.

Especially if someone else's position is different. Yan Pu stared at Zhang Wei for a few breaths and finally said, "The lord and the second general can join forces with Yizhou Mu Liu Zhang to fight against Wei Sikong. Zhang Wei was even more dumbfounded now, because this Yan Pu originally fled to Hanzhong with his family to escape Liu Yan's persecution, and he was resolutely opposed to the union of Zhang Lu and Liu Zhang, and now he actually said so.

Seeing Zhang Wei's blank face, Yan Pu then explained: "The lord is now friendly with Sikong, and there will be no pressure from the north in a short period of time. If you send someone to Chengdu to be unruly, in the name of uniting to resist Sikong, ask Liu Zhang for some grain, grass, and weapons, and you can still strengthen my Hanzhong. Yang Song interrupted a little dissatisfied: "Yan Pu, then, you make it clear, how to connect Liu Zhang, and how big is it to compete with Sikong, and to survive in the gap between Liu Zhang and Sikong?" If it is not clear, it is a delay in the fighter. "Yan Pu does not have a regular meeting with Yang Song, this is originally a question with no standard answer, how to choose is actually up to Zhang Lu himself, because only he has made a decision, and the people below have a good choice of whether to continue to follow or flee as soon as possible.

Now Zhang Lu has taken out this kind of problem to discuss with everyone, which itself has a very strong tendency in it.

Yang Song strongly advocated returning to Wei Xuan, so he Yan Pu could only blur the concept and proposition, otherwise no matter what choice Zhang Lu made, he would regret it in the future, and he would command to put the responsibility on himself.

You are a strategist, if you had stopped me in the first place, you wouldn't have been dealt with by Wei Xuan so easily? On the other hand, if you hadn't stopped me at the beginning, my Hanzhong would have become a minister of the dragon long ago...... Yan Pu is a strategist, of course he would not leave such a big handle in the hands of his own lord for himself, and of course he would not say much if Zhang Lu didn't ask him.

Zhang Wei saw that the two were arguing, so he sat down and prepared to watch the excitement. Zhang Lu frowned, he knew that Yan Pu's purpose of uniting Liu Zhang to fight against Wei Xuan was purely in opposition to Yang Song, that is, he would oppose Yang Song's approval, and he would approve Yang Song's objection.

Zhang Lu loves and hates this, because these two people keep raising the bar and make Zhang Lu's status as stable as Mount Tai.

So Zhang Lu changed his mind and asked Yan Pu: "Yan Bingcao, how did you break up the situation of the military forces and civil and military officials in the four northern states when you had been in direct contact with that Xu Yuan these days?" Yan Pu breathed a sigh of relief and arched his hand towards Zhang Lu: "Fujun, Wei Sikong is from the Wei family in Hedong, studied under Kang Chenggong, married Chen Liucai, and his father is also a famous Confucian in the sea, and there is a concubine Diao Chan is the righteous daughter of Wang Situ. The three brothers-in-law are Changshe Zhong Yuanchang, Yingyin Xun Youruo and Hanoi Han Hao, and they have even surpassed the Runan Yuan family in terms of fame. In addition, the academy was opened in Luoyang, and free accommodation and thread-bound books were provided to make readers from all over the world flock to it. In internal affairs, there are Xun Wenruo and Zhang Zibu and other Xiao He talents, and Xi Zhicai, Jia Xu, Guo Jia, etc. are not lost to Zhang Liang and Chen Ping. In terms of military generals, it is a big drama that takes turns to fight Lu Bu in front of Yuyuan Pass, Zhao Yun, Zhang Fei, Guan Yu, Dian Wei, Xu Chu, Huang Zhong, and Ran Min are all enemies. Zhang Liao, Zhang He, Xu Huang, Tai Shici, and Wei Yan are both civil and military, and they can defeat Huaxiong in martial arts, and they can defeat Xu Rong in command. So much so that Xu Rong, Zhang Ji, and Duan Xuan of the Xiliang soldiers were almost submerged. And Wei Zheng, Wei Ning, Du Peng, and Weitong from Weijia or Hedong have gradually matured and become independent. This time it was Zhang Wei's turn to frown, he originally wanted to sit down to watch Yang Song and Yan Pu arguing, but what did he hear?

He stood up very dissatisfied and asked, "Yan Bingcao, is there still a need to resist according to what you say?" It's better to go straight to Wei Sikong. Yan Pu raised his right hand and gently wiped the sweat of his hand, and made a wry smile towards Zhang Lu, then turned to Zhang Wei and lowered his head with a look of shame.

Zhang Wei snorted coldly and said to Zhang Lu: "Big brother, no matter how he Wei Zhongdao is in Sili and Liangzhou, if he wants to enter my Hanzhong, he must cross the Qinling Mountains, and we only need to dispatch one or two thousand elites to guard the main roads, and let him 100,000 horses be annihilated in the mountains." Zhang Lu nodded, although his younger brother doesn't like to study, and he doesn't like to use his brain to calculate people, but he still has a set of leading troops, as long as Yan Pu assists from the side, he really has a chance to block Wei Xuan outside the Qinling Mountains.

Yan Pu shook his head and said with a wry smile: "Second General, it is reported that Zhang Liao led his troops to attack Yecheng that day, and it was Gan Ning who used a ship to transport the components of the giant catapult to Yecheng, and then broke the city in one fell swoop. There is a big river near Nanzheng, and if there is really a war, in addition to sending troops from Wudu, Tianshui and Chang'an, you can also go up the river from Nanxiang. It was precisely because of that kind of catapult that the army of the guard Sikong that the Yuyuan Pass, the Monkey Clan, and the Yique Pass all went down in one day. The second general used 20,000 to defend the Qinling Mountains, and he could use tens of thousands to hold the Han River? Hearing this, Yang Song's eyes widened, and he could also hear that Yan Pu was just telling the truth, but he didn't expect Yan Pu to know so much about the north.

It turns out that Wei Xuan has such a big advantage over Hanzhong, so isn't he in a hurry to occupy Hanzhong? If this is the case, then he Yang Song will increase and have to hurry up, because Hanzhong may be dispensable to Wei Xuan, and when it is really time for the soldiers to press the realm, he Yang Song will be worthless in Wei Xuan's eyes.

Since Yan Pu listed all the advantages of Wei Xuan, Yang Song decided to strike while the iron was hot: "The lord, the second general, the small and medium-sized officials of Songnai County, it doesn't matter how to choose, take the initiative to return to Sikong and will not look at Song more, and if you stick to the city until the end, you may be able to be looked down upon by Sikong and the imperial court, that's all." However, the lord is different from the second general, he is a minister of the dragon, and the prince of the palace must not be three dukes and nine kings. Choosing to resist, Cheng also needs to face Liu Zhang's attack in the south, and if he loses, he will become a prisoner. As for uniting Liu Zhang, it is absolutely impossible, since they can all be subservient to Liu Zhang, Wei He is not obedient? Sikong has no grudges against us, and he is powerful. Zhang Wei was speechless, Zhang Lu sighed, in fact, he wanted to drag it out, but now he was very sure that these people here were instructed by Wei Xuan to lobby him, if he insisted, he couldn't say that Wei Xuan would be lively.

So Zhang Lu glanced at Zhang Wei and said: "What Gong Cao and Bing Cao said is right, you and my brother will return to Wei Sikong." Zhang Wei still wanted to insist, but found that everyone present was looking at him with a smile, and he was angry but knew that he was helpless.
