On both sides of the Shu Road, between the mountains and mountains, there are not only thousands of rocks and ravines in the clouds and clouds, but also the scenery of beautiful mountains and rivers and peach red willow green.

At this moment, on the rice cang road, the mountain road between the towering mountains, Zhang He's soldiers and horses are hurrying.

He was the vanguard army, and Cao Cao personally suppressed the Chinese army and followed him.

Bazhong leading to Micang Road;

Fuling led by Lychee Road.

Although they are all important places in Shu, but the strategic location is completely different, take Bazhong can directly attack Chengdu, take Fuling... But it was to block Jingzhou's thousands of miles of aid.

Now... Compared with the Fuling captured by Xu Huang on the mountain road, there is no doubt that the position of Bazhong is more important, which is why Cao Cao personally pressed the battle for Zhang He.

"- General Zhang, the left flank has been investigated, and there is no ambush!"

"—General Zhang, the right flank has also been explored, and there is no ambush."

Because of this "Shu Road is difficult", and because Cao Cao is behind, Zhang He does not dare to have the slightest carelessness, and every mountain road must be carefully explored to ensure that... There was no ambush.

How did Liu Bei's military advisor Pang Tong die in this mountain road?

Zhang He still heard about it.

Merely...

In front of it is the "Jiangzhou" of Ba County, but along the way, where is there an ambush in all directions?

Zhang He whispered to himself: "It seems that the prime minister's strategy has worked, and the entire rice cang... The Shu army has removed its protection... Without a hitch. ”

Speaking of this, Zhang He's son Zhang Xiong smiled: "Father is too careful, otherwise... I can still arrive here half a day earlier, and the prime minister is behind, this battle... Father is bound to make a great contribution! ”

Zhang He glanced at his son Zhang Xiong lightly, and he reminded: "The way of using soldiers is ever-changing, our opponent is Zhuge Kongming, which has made the prime minister suffer big losses repeatedly, don't be careless!" ”

Suddenly, a soldier shouted towards the head of Jiangzhou City: "There are people in the city!" ”

Zhang He hurriedly looked up, but saw two flags fluttering on the city, one side said "General Zhuge Liang of the Han Army", and the other side said "Waiting for a long time"...

The banner hunted and waved in the west wind, like a provocation to Zhang He's army.

"Prepared in advance?"

Zhang He showed a worried look, and he muttered, "At this time, why is Zhuge Liang here?" ”

With this in mind, Zhang He ordered: "Inform the prime minister, and the rest of the soldiers will move forward slowly... Be careful around. ”

While speaking, Zhang Hedi always clenched his spear, because of his emotional infection, the entire Cao army seemed a little nervous and heavily guarded.

Speaking of...

Zhang He's commander is characterized by "clever change"...

This is diametrically opposed to "Ma Tan".

Both of them are familiar with the art of war, but one can integrate the theory of the art of war into the battlefield, and adapt measures to local conditions and time conditions.

One only knows "on paper"!

It must be known that in the battle of Jieting in history, Ma Tan was trapped on the mountain by Zhang He.

He didn't panic at all, because he was referring to the article "The Art of War: Nine Lands" - survive after death, and live after death.

According to this art of war, if they are put to death, the soldiers will fight to the end in order to survive, and their combat effectiveness will explode several times higher.

But Zhang He understood too well, he specially left a gap in the encirclement, and with the hope of escaping, the mortal heart of Ma Tan's soldiers was less than half.

Zhang He set up an ambush at the gap and knocked out Ma Tan's soldiers one by one.

This is the use of the article "The Art of War: Military Struggle" "Siege the division must be que"!

It's a coincidence... It's reading a book of soldiers, but not a book of death!

It is precisely for this reason that Zhang He is well versed in the art of war, even if it is a surprise attack, but he is also cautious and repeated, and never dares to underestimate the opponent.

What's more, this time, his opponent is Zhuge Kongming.

The army moved forward slowly, and when it was close to Jiangzhou, Zhang He was shocked to find that Zhuge Liang was standing on the city tower, he subconsciously looked around, but found that the city gate was open, and several veterans were cleaning.

Zhang He was puzzled, but he was very vigilant...

"The shield array is on both sides, the crossbowmen are in the center, pay attention to the ambush around!"

Zhang He once again won the command.

The entire Cao army quickly changed its formation.

Suddenly, a chirp sounded from the nearby bushes.

"Shoot-" Zhang He gave an order, and countless arrows and thousands of arrows were fired at once... Rows of feathered arrows covered the woods densely, but... It was only a few elk in the woods that were shot down.

Everyone sighed, only to realize that they were too nervous and too sensitive.

Call...

Zhang He adjusted his mood, he looked at Zhuge Liang on the city tower, and whispered: "Is it a trick, or is there an ambush?" Now that the gates of the city are open, you might as well ..."

Immediately, Zhang He pointed his gun at Zhuge Liang on the city tower.

"—Send five hundred soldiers into the city!"

"No!" At this moment, a voice whistled, Zhang He turned his head, and in the escort of a dry tiger army, Cao Cao rode out.

"Prime Minister..."Zhang He hurriedly arched his hand and explained: "The gate of Jiangzhou City is open, Zhuge Liang is on top of the Jiangzhou City Tower, and the last general plans to send a small army to try its depth and make decisions!" ”

Cao Cao squinted and did not answer.

He just looked at the city tower and looked at Zhuge .

The first battle of Chibi and the same Huarong.

The fiasco, the rout... It was as if it had appeared in front of him again, awakening the depths of his memory.

In Cao Cao's eyes...

Zhuge Liang is comparable to Zhou Yu's existence, and Zhuge Liang is more cautious and meticulous than Zhou Yu.

How could such a person go into danger alone...

How could there be no ambush in this Jiangzhou city?

Cao Cao is suspicious by nature...

When Changban Slope was in the past, Zhang Fei was able to drink back Cao Cao's hundreds of thousands of male soldiers with dozens of horses.

Not to mention now, now this Jiangzhou is ten times more mysterious than under the Dangyang Bridge?

"Prime Minister, no matter what... Send a small army into it to investigate and find out what is true and false... This is the best policy! "Zhang He knows how to be flexible, at this time, the opponent is suspicious, he should first explore the truth.

Cao Cao stretched out his hand. "Not busy... Wait! ”

Over the years, too many stories of Chibi have reached Cao Cao's ears, and Chibi has been defeated... Cao Cao didn't know how many nightmares he had over the years.

Especially that east wind.

This Zhuge Liang can borrow the east wind, he is very evil!

- He is a Zhuge villager;

——It's even more Zhuge Demon!

From the bottom of his heart, the more Zhuge Liang opened the city gate, the more jealous Cao Cao became.

That's when ...

A tiger soldier whispered a few words in Xu Chu's ear, and then handed a bamboo tube to Xu Chu.

Xu Chu walked quickly to Cao Cao's side.

"Prime Minister... This is Jingzhou urgent, ten days ago to this side of the mail, before a heavy snow trapped this urgent mail in Shangyong, now the snow road is eradicated, only to send. ”

As Xu Chu spoke, he opened the bamboo tube and handed the bamboo slip to Cao Cao.

Because Hanzhong was newly breached, no post house was built between Hanzhong and the Central Plains, and the flying pigeons did not have time to make a special trip to train.

Therefore, the flying pigeon is still unable to send a letter...

Compared with Shuzhong, the transmission of information is undoubtedly a lot slower, and it happened to be snowed in the middle of the day, so that this letter could not be delayed.

At this moment, Cao Cao had already unfolded his letterhead.

But... It's good that this letterhead is not unfolded, but as soon as it is unfolded, Cao Cao's face froze, and drops of sweat immediately appeared on his forehead.

"Prime Minister..."

Zhang He and Xu Chu spoke in unison.

"Something's wrong, Wen Ping is dead-" Cao Cao blurted out...

Yes... Zhang He and Xu Chu were stunned.

Wenpin is an iron wall in Jiangxia! If he dies, what should Jiang Xia do?

And didn't give him time to surprise the two of them at all, Cao Cao's words continued, "Lu Chang, Niu Jin, Man... Full of pets and full of Berning... All are dead! ”

When the name of Man Zhong was mentioned, Cao Cao's fists were clenched, and he looked more sad than dead.

It seems that full favor is extremely heavy in Cao Cao's mind.

However, the deaths of these people were not what Cao Cao deplored the most.

The way they died... Just... Is!

At this moment, Zhang He was extremely surprised when he heard this, but... He couldn't help but look at Jiangzhou, he knew that he shouldn't have reminded Cao Cao at this time, but... Such a great opportunity, missed... But... But...

With a "bang", Zhang He swallowed his saliva, and still had the courage to remind: "The prime minister mourns, but now... Take Jiangzhou first, the last general is willing to personally bring a small army into the city to have a look! For the prime minister to explore the truth. ”

Zhang He's tone was solemn.

But Cao Cao raised his hand and shouted angrily: "Junyi, do you know how they died? ”

Cao Cao's emotions suddenly became extremely excited, he faced Zhang He, but pointed to the Jiangzhou City.

"-Wen Ping was going to burn a group of unsuspecting warships, but he was stopped by Guan Yunchang and beheaded with a knife!"

—When Berning went to rob an enemy village that he thought he was defenseless, he was pierced through the heart by ten thousand arrows... Yun Chang is above board, how could he make such a conspiracy, it must be a treacherous plan set up by this Zhuge villager, he has already earned four lonely generals, and now... I still want to earn you a good job! Lone has already broken them, and I can't break you anymore! ”

Cao Cao's voice was incomparably tragic and hoarse.

He seemed to be deeply determined all of a sudden...

There must be a lot of ambushes in this Jiangzhou city!

Over there...

On the upper floor of Jiangzhou City, when Ma Jian saw the surging Cao Jun under the city, his face turned condensed, and his mood was extremely nervous.

The banner of the word "Zhang" held high undoubtedly refers to Cao Cao's only general surnamed Zhang in Hanzhong, one of the five good generals - Zhang He.

Ma Jian also noticed that the enemy general Zhang He bowed his hands and humbly in front of a black-robed man.

Ma Tan said: "As expected, Cao Cao didn't go south to help Xiangfan, he... He hid in Hanzhong and set up this treacherous scheme, intending to plot this Bazhong. ”

"What about Bazhong?" Zhuge Liang's eyes were gloomy, "I'm afraid that Fuling on Lychee Road will not be able to escape..."

"What do you mean?" Ma Tan was startled and hurriedly asked.

"It's imperative to be able to hold one place." Zhuge Liang sighed softly... He noticed that Cao Cao under the city seemed to be at odds with Zhang He.

Zhuge Liang smiled contemptuously, "Young elder, Buqin!" ”

Ma Tan listened to the order and set up the incense burner and the suqin.

Next... According to Zhuge Liang's instructions, he also had to put the water cup, but after placing it, Ma Jian inadvertently saw the city, and met Cao Cao's sharp eyes, and his heart trembled.

With a "bang", the water cup fell to the ground with a crisp sound.

Cao Cao under the city naturally saw the wrestling lamp clearly, and the deaths of Wen Ping, Man Chong and others were vivid, and he quickly reined in his horse backwards.

A dry tiger army understood, and raised their shields one after another, blocking left and right, for fear that strong crossbows would shoot out on both sides.

It seems that all of them thought that this was Zhuge Liang's "wrestling lamp", and the enemy troops in all directions were about to be killed.

When Zhuge Liang saw it, he smiled, he knew that Cao Cao was suspicious by nature... But I never thought that it would be such a cup bow and snake shadow.

This made Zhuge Liang feel a lot more calm, and he bowed his hand politely to Cao Cao, his expression calm, as if to comfort him

- "Cao Cao, Cao Cao, your suspicion has not changed at all!"

Immediately, Zhuge Liang personally picked up the water cup, gently put it back on the table, and then sat down.

Ma Tan asked: "Can the military advisor play the piano to scare away the Cao thief?" ”

"I'm not scaring him, I'm trying to persuade him!" Zhuge Liang raised his eyes slightly, and he looked at Cao Cao, as if he had seen through Cao Cao's state of mind.

He said more, but slowly raised his hand to try a few notes on the piano, and the city tower suddenly sounded a leisurely sound of the piano.

Cao Cao once studied in Taixue, one of the "music" in the six arts of the gentleman, he studied, and he could also hear that Zhuge Liang's song was his own "Liang Fu Yin".

On Wollongong, Zhuge Liang's best friend Cui Zhouping played for Cao Cao.

Cao Cao, who was already a little soldier, stared at his eyebrows and squinted... The words of "Liang Fuyin" were whispered in his mouth: "...... The power can row the South Mountain, and it can be the Jedi. Once slandered, two peaches killed three soldiers... Two peaches kill three soldiers! ”

"Isn't there an ambush in this Zhuge villager? Why didn't you tempt me, but persuade me... Leave? ”

While chanting these words...

Cao Cao's mood became more and more nervous and incomprehensible, and his frightened bird-like mood suddenly seemed to be covered with a thick layer of doubt.

- Suspicious!

…

…

The music of Soochow was played again in the palace.

After receiving Zhuge Jin's letter, Sun Quan read it three times... Just then passed Lu Meng to discuss the matter.

During this time, the metropolitan governor Lu Su fell, Lu Xun went south to Jiaozhou, and Sun Quan liked to talk more and more with the former "Wuxia Ameng"...

Today's Lu Meng's distribution map is strong, and he can already be called a bit of a strategy in his belly.

"My lord..."

Lu Meng rushed over and immediately surrendered his hand to Sun Quan.

Sun Quan motioned for him to look at Zhuge Jin's letter on the table.

Lu Meng did not hesitate and quickly unfolded... He took a cursory look at it, and then exclaimed: "Ziyu wants the lord to send the governor to Changsha for treatment?" How can this work? ”

Lu Meng seemed to be quite resistant...

- There is no such rule!

In case of... The governor was cured, but he was eventually held hostage in Jingzhou? So how?

Isn't this a sheep in the mouth of a tiger?

Need to know...

When later generations judge Lu Meng, they often say - Lu Meng can't have a big plan and can't be compared with Lu Su!

And that's exactly what happened.

Lu Meng's ability to make insidious moves such as "crossing the river in white" to backstab the alliance is enough to see that he is not broad-minded...

And a narrow-minded person is bound to use the most sinister thoughts to figure out people's hearts.

"When Lone saw the first half of Ziyu's letterhead, he was also angry..."

Sun Quan opened his mouth again, "Lone even scolded him... This time he went to Jingzhou, but he didn't make an inch, but he folded for a while, but... But in the back part of this letter, Ziyu wrote some truth, which made Lone's eyes light up. ”

It must be known that the content behind Zhuge Jin is nothing more than Guan Lin's words.

- Guan Lin plans to give Hefei to Lu Zijing as a meeting gift.

It's too tempting.

——Hefei is an insurmountable hurdle in the hearts of Sun Quan and all Jiangdong civil and military forces!

As long as you can break through Hefei...

Everything can be put down!

And this sentence directly made Sun Quan look at Guan Lin again and again.

"The Lord believes that boy?" Lu Meng asked puzzledly: "This Guan Lin is only fifteen years old, his mouth is hairless, and he can't handle things well, his words... Can you believe it? He's not... Trick the Governor into going to Jingzhou, and..."

Before Lu Meng's words were finished, Sun Quan waved his hand and motioned for him not to say any more.

Sun Quan paused for a moment and said softly: "Recently, although Ziyu has been ineffective, but... Lone believes in his vision, and he also believes in his loyalty to Lone, not to mention the words of Guan Lin Guan Yunqi mentioned in Ziyu's letter..."

"Is that it?" Lu Meng pointed to a column on the letterhead without thinking, and he read it out, "Guan Linyan 'If you don't help Dongwu to seek Hefei?'" That Dongwu is like a trapped beast, it is bound to covet Jingzhou, and the Sun-Liu alliance will never be suspicious, so... This Guan Lin decided to save Zijing and help Zijing seize Hefei, which is not harmful to Jingzhou! Together, it's good for both sides! ’”

Because after reading it again, Lu Meng... I can't help but ponder.

"So... Guan Lin, this kid is sincere! It's just that... Will he go? ”

Lu Meng just blurted out this...

"I... Ahem..."

"I'm willing—"

But I heard a hoarse voice coming from the temple door...

Sun Quan was stunned and hurriedly turned around to greet him.

"Zijing, you have such an illness, how did you come here?"

Today's Lu Su is slightly better than before, and his cheeks are also a little more energetic.

The cough is still there, but... I was already able to walk a little with the support of the guards.

It was also a coincidence, Lu Su heard that Zhuge Jin sent a letter back, where was he still calm, and rushed to Sun Quan's side as soon as possible.

At this moment, he said softly: "Fang Cai, the lord's words, Ziyu's letter... Ahem... I... Ahem... I... I hear it all! ”

Lu Su's voice was hoarse, and he smiled reluctantly.

"Haha, that Guan Yunqi has become famous recently, he can save that Zhongjing, maybe... In the hands of him and Zhang Zhongjing, can he heal me and save me? What's more, he wants to give me the method of taking Hefei? I... How can I not give up my life to accompany a gentleman? ”

"Zijing, I'm worried about you!" Sun Quan frowned and said... The tone is worried.

"Am I not doing well?" Lu Su deliberately let the attendant stand aside, and he reluctantly walked a few steps, wanting to prove that his illness was much better.

Ha ha...

Lu Su said with a smile: "Don't worry, the battle of the trapped beasts of Dongwu has not been broken yet, Su... Don't dare to fall! Su is reluctant to give up the lord! ”

Lu Su's voice seemed to be extremely difficult, as if he had used enough strength for every sentence.

Need to know...

Historically, Lu Su fell two years later.

It was in that plague that swept through the entire Eastern Time that fell.

The cough that afflicted him lasted for two years.

Now, it's just the beginning.

"My lord, send the ship quickly! Ahem... Soldier... Soldiers, you are fast! ”

Lu Su's words continued to come out.

The so-called noble soldier in his mouth is not his disease... But... It's Hefei, he is too eager to know, in this Guan Lin's mouth, about Hefei's game-breaking strategy!

Even if...

Even if he takes his life, if he can take Hefei, it will be... It is enough to comfort his life.

"Well... Okay..."Sun Quan agreed with difficulty, "Since Zijing is so persistent, then Gu will prepare a boat now, and send a boat to send Zijing over now!" ”

…

…

Bazhong, above the Jiangzhou City Tower.

The melodious sound of Zhuge Liang playing continued.

The sound of the piano was quiet and elegant at first, making people feel like they were between the mountains and rivers, and from a distance, Zhuge Liang at the head of the city also looked calm, intoxicated by the sound of his piano.

The meaning of this score "Liang Fu Yin"... It was as if it had been played through the sound of the piano.

Tell Cao Cao about it.

- Looking at the bleak and dead darkness, there are three tombs close to each other, all of which are very similar in shape and size.

INTERVIEWER Whose graveyard is this? Tian Kaijiang, Gu Yezi and Gongsun.

- Their strength can knock down Nanshan, and they can cut the rope that binds the earth, but once they were slandered, two little peaches actually killed three warriors.

- Who could have conceived such a strange plan? He is Yan Zi, the prime minister of Qi State.

Listening to Zhuge Liang's piano over and over again...

Cao Cao could understand what he meant.

He can also understand why Zhuge Liang wants to play this song - "Liang Fuyin"

Hehe...

Cao Cao sneered, and he couldn't help muttering in his heart:

- "There must be an ambush in this Jiangzhou, but after all, it seems that this Zhuge Kongming doesn't want to fight!" He's trying to persuade Gu not to fight!'

- "Two peaches kill three soldiers, two peaches kill three soldiers, so it is, so it is..."

…
