Zhang Liao is not only brave and emotionally intelligent, but his loyalty is not completely unshakable.

Just like the fall of Lu Bu at the beginning, the ending of Zhang Liao and Gao Shun can explain some problems from the side.

Heroes are also human beings, but who really wants to die if they can live?

Zhang Liao can figure out Cao Cao's mind very well, he knows that he has lost Huainan, and now he can't wash away the stain, even if he returns to Xudu smoothly, he will not be taken seriously as before.

Dying generously can certainly save the family.

But can you continue to live without surrendering, and then go to find the old master despite the difficulties.

Such a spirit is also worth writing about.

In order to set an example, Cao Cao will definitely treat himself well, and Zhang Liao is convinced of this.

So when Long Xiang proposed this plan, Zhang Liao was very willing to accept it, and it was not too simple to copy the homework according to Guan Yu.

The righteous words on the city tower just now are also to establish a character who is loyal to the old master.

Perfectly handling the problems of Tai Shici and Zhang Liao, Long Xiang sent people to Shouchun to deliver a letter to Lu Su on the one hand, and returned to Hefei with the second general without stopping.

Although Cao Cao had no time to take care of Huainan, if Sun Quan had not spent time in Jingzhou, it was entirely possible that he would come to Hefei to take revenge.

Long Xiang suddenly 'turned an old hen into a duck', I don't know if Sun Quan, who is strong in blood, can accept it.

Hefei New City was planned and built by Long Xiang, the whole is a masonry and concrete structure, which looks magnificent from the outside, because the new city is five times the size of the old city, the buildings in the city are concentrated in the most central area, and most of the rest of the area is farmland.

Long Xiang returned to the city in early February, and in the early spring when the earth was warmer, the farmers in Hefei had begun to plough the fields based on experience.

On both sides of the main road, Zhang Liao and Tai Shici looked around, a scene of busy spring ploughing and farming.

The two of them passed by silently and watched silently and did not speak, but they both had the experience of being in Tuntian in the jurisdiction.

After only a few cursory glances, I knew that the road was full of fertile fields, and I said that if I waited until May or June, this place would be a sea of green.

With so much fertile land, how much grain can be produced each year?

Several of the main roads leading to the city gates, which were obviously wider than the average city, should have been built for strategic purposes, so that the soldiers and supplies defending the city could reach quickly.

There are high walls outside, countless fertile fields inside, and roads extend in all directions.

This Hefei city is impregnable.

Walking to the central core area, the neat streets and buildings, the appearance and style are slightly different, and the overall harmonious residential community has opened the eyes of Tai Shici and Zhang Liao.

Especially Zhang Liao, although he came from Xudu, he felt that the city he saw in front of him was what the capital should be.

Knowing that the new city was planned and built by Long Xiang, the two of them cast admiring eyes.

Because of the new partners joining, Long Xiang set up a banquet for Tai Shici and Zhang Liao on the first day of returning to Hefei.

Tai Shi Ci accepted it disrespectfully, and Zhang Liao excused himself with the excuse of being unwell, he secretly made up his mind not only to emulate Guan Yu, but also to do more extreme than Guan Yu.

Zhang Liao planned to accept any overtures to Long Xiang, and when he returned to Xu Du in the future, he would have the confidence to say that he had not surrendered, and the most important thing for him was to show the eight hundred parts.

The roast pork arranged for the reception banquet was originally a delicacy that Zhang Liao had in mind, but he couldn't help but go to the banquet in order to create a character, and would rather stay in the post house and eat ordinary meals.

Seeing that Zhang Liao deliberately behaved like this, the open-minded Long Xiang did not force it, but still sent the barbecue to the post house and the military camp respectively.

Zhang Liao can control himself, but he can't control the mouths of his soldiers, they have followed Zhang Liao for many years, and rarely have the opportunity to eat meat, let alone Hefei's unique fragrant pork, as well as Long Xiang's new cooking methods.

The entourage who followed the post house, because under Zhang Liao's nose, only silently enjoyed the delicious food, while the soldiers stationed next to the Tiger Guards praised the taste without any scruples.

Fragrant, really fragrant.

Zhang Liao didn't return to his heart at this time, and Long Xiang had to keep a hand on him.

He instructed the generals to have reservations about Zhang Liao, especially the core technology of the clairfront mirror, so that the 800 remnants were included in the monitoring.

The day after returning to Hefei, Lu Su also returned from Shouchun.

At the same time, he brought back the captive Liu Fu and settled in the county mansion to wait for his arrival.

The reunion of old friends is indispensable to praise each other.

Lu Su lured Li Dian's main force out of the city, and took Shouchun without blood, demonstrating his extraordinary resourcefulness; And Long Xiang said that Tai Shici persuaded Zhang Liao to return, and the result completely exceeded the pre-war deduction and was an overfulfillment of the task.

After the greetings, Lu Su asked Long Xiang to get rid of his attendants, and reminded him softly: "Although Yunqi used a delaying tactic to leave Zhang Liao, I heard that he used the excuse of not coming to the banquet yesterday, which shows that it is difficult to make him return to the sky, and besides, this person is brave and strategic, if the heart is not here and stays strongly, it will expose our secrets."

"What is Zijing's opinion?" Long Xiang asked rhetorically.

Lu Su replied: "I don't know Yunqi's intentions, but if you really want to keep Zhang Liao, it is better to let him live in the old city temporarily, there is no military workshop there now, and there is only General Feng's city defense army, which is much simpler than the new city and more convenient to manage." ”

"Well, that makes sense."

Long Xiang bowed his head slightly, and suddenly showed a worried look: "Zhang Wenyuan is the tiger general of the world, I'm worried that Uncle Yu won't be able to control it."

Lu Su then offered a plan: "The Jiangjunling sentry has just been removed, Cao Sima should come back soon, Yunqi can let him go to the old city together, Cao Sima and Zhang Liao are old comrades, and they are also smart and clever, so they should be able to help you watch him." ”

"Hmm"

Long Xiang pinched his chin and muttered to himself: "Hefei New City has a lot of eyes, Wen Yuan is not comfortable here, it is a good way to put it in the old city, but before he passes, I have to give him a reassurance." ”

"Reassurance?"

Lu Su was stunned when he heard this.

Long Xiang asked, "Where is Liu Fu now?" Is it also located in a post house? ”

"Zhang Liao is in the post house, how can you take him there?"

Lu Su shook his head and replied: "He is currently under house arrest in the Juncheng Mansion. ”

Long Xiang whispered a few words in Lu Su's ear, making the other party show a surprised expression, and praised Long Xiang for his talent as a god and a ghost.

Lu Su then bowed his resignation with Long Xiang, and Long Xiang sent him to the gate of Taishou Mansion, and at the same time sent someone to ask Zhang Liao to come to the mansion.

Not long after, Zhang Liao came from the post house.

As soon as they met, Zhang Liao hugged Long Xiang and pleaded guilty, and then excused himself for not feeling well yesterday, so he didn't come to the house for the banquet.

The divine doctor Hua Tuo was in the city, and it was easy for Long Xiang to debunk the lie, but he didn't do such an emotionally unintelligent thing, and welcomed him into the main hall with a slight smile.

On the way side by side, Long Xiang asked Zhang Liao for advice on stationing in the old city.

Zhang Liao was very cautious, and immediately stopped after hearing this, turned around and asked, "General Long asked me to go to the old city?" Didn't you want to put Zhang Liao under house arrest? ”

Long Xiang hurriedly shook his head: "Wen Yuan is too worried, don't you want to make meritorious contributions?" The old city of Hefei is next to Shishui, Sun Quan and Lu Meng Ruoxing soldiers came to retaliate, which side do you think they will fight first? ”

"Jiangdong people are not good at land warfare, and it is more likely that they should fight the old city, Yunqi means" Zhang Liao looked at Long Xiang in surprise at the end.

"Long Mou said nothing and promised to give Wen Yuan a chance to make meritorious contributions, so he will definitely not break his promise."

Long Xiang smiled knowingly, and said in his heart that I had spent so much effort before and after, just to help Guan Erye repay his favor.

Of course, Long Xiang used his nemesis Zhang Liao to deal with Sun Quan, and he also had some careful thoughts.

After all, Zhang 800 can defeat 100,000 grandsons.
