Chapter 105 All kinds of surrenderers

By the end of April, 100,000 troops had gathered in Yidu County, which borders Fuling. Zhang Fei and Zhuge Liang rushed to Yidu, and Jingzhou Muguan Yu also came to see off the army in the conquest of Shu in person.

"Second brother!" Unexpectedly, Guan Yu would come to see him off in person, and Zhang Fei was also overjoyed. The two brothers haven't seen each other for several years, and they are full of emotion when they meet again. That night, the two talked until late at night. The next time, Zhang Fei led the army forward, and Guan Yu sent him straight to Yiling, and then returned to Xiangyang.

"The second general and the third general have a deep affection. Although they are not personal, they are the same person. It's really touching!" Zhuge Liang also sighed. When Zhang Fei heard the words, he sighed in a rare way: "In the past, when the three brothers were dressed in cloth, they ate at the same table and slept at the same table. Now they are sitting on one side, but it's hard to see each other again.

"It's the same with Liang. My elder brother is in Jingzhou, and my third brother is in Hanzhong. It's rare to see him for several years!" Zhuge Liang sighed.

"I still have some houses and land in my hometown in Zhuo County, and I don't know if they are still there. If there is no war later, it's time to go back and have a look!" Zhang Fei misses the tunnel a little. People are so contradictory. When they are ordinary, they think about the scenery. When the scenery is enough, they want to return to the ordinary. It's just that life is not so easy to be satisfactory. It is indeed an extravagant hope to advance and retreat freely.

There is little gossip, but it is said that Zhang Fei's 100,000 horses gathered from Jingzhou to the river. Guan Yu also specially sent Zhao Lei, who did things steadily under his command, to escort him with food and fodder. Such a large-scale military gathering, unless Xichuan's detectives are blind, it can never be hidden. So after counting, Liu Zhang received an emergency military message from Zhang Ren, who was stationed in Ba County.

"Guys, Zhao Botao failed to calculate the previous plan. Now Liu Xuande has really sent troops to attack. What should we do?" Liu Zhang pinched the emergency military situation in his hand, but he was at a loss. At the same time, Wu Yi, who was at Jianmen Pass, also sent people to send emergency military information, claiming that Zhao Feng sent Chen Shi and Yang Ren to lead the army to station in Badong and Dangqu, where they stationed fields to raise soldiers, and did not commit any crimes with the people, and had gradually gained the hearts of the people of the two places. Now, it is necessary to send reliable generals to Brazil to prevent Zhao Feng from attacking.

Now Liu Zhang finally understands what it means to be bitten by a dog (Liu Bei: Do you think I'm a dog?). Originally, he wanted to take Hanzhong, but now Hanzhong has not taken it, and Badong and Dangqu have also been taken by others. Of course, Liu Zhang also knows that these two counties are now sparsely populated. Although he has robbed them from Zhang Lu for a long time, he has not been governed much, and there are not many troops stationed. It's not surprising that he was easily taken down by Zhao Feng now. The problem is that once the two counties fall into the hands of Zhao Feng, he can ercede on Brazil, and then to Guanghan, and then to Chengdu and other core areas.

If you want to say that Liu Zhang is indeed a little slow to react. Seeing Meng Da so strangely, he should have thought of something wrong, and then he should have realized that there must be internal annihilate in Shu. It's just that so far, he is still ignorant.

Although Liu Zhang is ignorant, Xichuan is not a fool after all. First, Zhang Ren expected that the enemy would send someone to guard the gate, and now someone has begun to fight back. He is none other than Huang Quan and Huang Gongheng, who was the first to see something wrong.

Looking at Liu Zhang, who was at a loss in front of him, Huang Quan immediately comforted him first: "Lord, don't worry. Although Zhang Fei is fierce, General Zhang Ren is stationed in Ba County. I understand that he has no choice but to do. As for the army from Hanzhong, both Jianmengguan and Jiange were heavily guarded. Unless Zhao Botao has wings on his shoulders, he will never fly into Xichuan. The only thing I'm worried about at the time is internal trouble!"

"What does Gongheng mean?" Liu Zhang heard that there was something in Huang Quan's words, especially the internal danger was deliberately hidden from someone, and he hurriedly asked what was going on.

Huang Quan smiled and took out a letter from his sleeve and handed it to Liu Zhang. Zhang Song beside him saw it and his face suddenly changed greatly.

"What is this?" Liu Zhang took the letter doubtfully, but he didn't open it for a moment. Huang Quan snorted coldly and said, "When Mencius volunteered to set up a Hongmen banquet and immediately surrendered to the enemy, I thought that there was something wrong with this. As a result, last night, I sent a garrison to patrol the city to catch a person and found this letter from him. It was Zhang Songzhang's farewell to the traitor Meng Da. He made an appointment with him how to make an accident in Chengdu to respond to Meng Da!"

"What?" Liu Zhang was shocked when he heard the words, and when he opened it, he was already in a cold sweat. After reading it, Liu Zhang also threw the letter on the ground angrily and roared, "Come on, take Zhang Song down with me!" Someone immediately came forward to arrest Zhang Song. Liu Zhang looked at the shortman in front of him, and he was also furious. At that moment, he ordered someone to push out the chop. Zhang Song shouted and scolded endlessly until there was a scream that everything was silent.

"Come on, kill Zhang Song all the old and the young!" Obviously, killing Zhang Song alone could not make Liu Zhang enjoy it. He was still not satisfied, and then ordered to cut the grass and eradicate it. Huang Quan waited for Liu Zhang to have an attack, and then sighed, "It's a pity that I'm still a step late. Fa Zheng's guy conspired with Zhang Song and Mengda, but he said that he had excused to go to Guanghan to work in the Han Dynasty and had fled to Hanzhong."

"Unrighteous children, sooner or later, they will be killed together!" Liu Zhang said with hatred. Looking at Huang Quan and Wang Lei, Liu Zhang also continued to ask, "I don't know what strategies you have to retreat from the enemy?"

Huang Quan thought for a time and said, "Now that Zhang Dudu is in Ba County, Zhang Fei is not worried all the way. However, Zhao Feng is a man of many tricks. Now he is in Badong and other places. With Pang Yi, the governor of Brazil, I'm afraid he can't control him. Only now, you can quickly transfer General Yan Yan, who is in the south of the town, to Brazil to stop Zhao Feng.

"General Yan is sitting in the south of the town. Once he walks away, what should he do if those barbarians commit crimes again?" Liu Zhang was a little embarrassed. At this time, Wang Lei said, "The lord should not panic. If a person is guarding Nanzhong, he will not dare to invade."

"Who?" Liu Zhang asked in a hurry.

"This person's surname is Li Hui and his name is Deang, and he is from Jianning Yu Yuan. This person is proficient in government affairs and Xiaochang's military affairs. With him guarding the southern middle, it is enough to resist the southern barbarians. Wang Lei said slowly.

"It's so good!" Liu Zhang was overjoyed when he heard the words; he quickly took Yan Yan to defend Brazil according to Wang Lei and Huang Quan's words to block Zhao Feng.

However, Zhao Feng has not yet marched for the time being. He waited in Nanzheng for He Qi, who was ordered to come to help, and the 5,000 Danyang elite soldiers. Originally, he wanted to be a flying army, but Liu Bei transferred him to Danyang elite soldiers. This flying army is composed of the mountain people of Shanyue and Nanman. Their physical quality is extremely outstanding, and they are like walking on the flat ground. After Zhao Feng calmed down Shanyue and Nanman, he trained his elite into the army, and his combat effectiveness was far stronger than that of ordinary infantry. Liu Bei was full of praise, but he was also a little sorry: Shanyue was almost extinct, and Nanman also moved into the plains. Such an army was one less, and he couldn't help but fished a little.

Later, Zhuge Liang pointed out that the reason why the Wudang Flying Army is strong is that these people are mostly hunters living in the mountains, and their physical quality is far better than that of the people in the plains. If you want to have a continuous source of troops, you only need to have a continuous source of mountain people. At his suggestion, Liu Bei ordered that under his rule, all the fields in the mountains should be halved. In this way, those tribes living in the mountains of Yangzhou, Jingnan and even Yuzhou are now safe after seeing Liu Bei's iron fist when he destroyed the mountain. In this way, under the rule of Liu Bei, there are about 600,000 mountain people. When recruiting troops every year, they will also recruit thousands or even more than 10,000 people. At the same time, the Shanyue tribe in Jiaozhou also submitted to Liu Bei. The Wudang Flying Army and the Shanyue Army finally escaped the danger of extinction.

After hearing about Zhuge Liang's policy, Zhao Feng also praised it. Although he almost exterminated the Shanyue clan before, he also cut off the source of soldiers. Now, in ten or twenty years, these Shanyue people and the southern barbarians will become a stable source of soldiers like the mountain people in Danyang, but they will not be too hostile to the Han people. Thinking about the key to this, Zhao Feng also had to sigh that Zhuge Liang's ability to deal with political affairs was indeed much better than that of his own prophet.

However, Zhao Feng didn't wait for He Qi, but the two uninvited guests arrived almost on the same day. The first one was the law of immortality. He ran from Guanghan to Brazil, and then entered Hanzhong through the canal. After Meng Da's introduction, he came to meet Zhao Feng.

"I've seen General Zhao!" After the two met, Fa Zheng gave a deep courtesy.

"There is no need to be more polite!" Although Zhao Feng is a little unhappy with the character of these people who eat inside and outside, he still has to do it for face. After a reassurance, Fa Zheng also told them miserably that Zhang Song had been killed by Liu Zhang. Unlike in history, because his eldest brother, Zhang Su, the governor of Guanghan, did not report and expose him this time, he was implicated and killed together.

"If you don't do things in secret forever, there is an inherent disaster!" Meng Da also sighed when he heard the words. Zhao Feng comforted the two. At this time, someone came to report, and Xu Chang's court sent messengers here.

"Xu Chang's messenger?" Zhao Feng was a little strange. Why did Lao Cao think of himself, but he still signaled to bring him in in the future. Not to mention him, even Meng Da and others are very strange. It's just that Fa Zheng's eyes turned and seemed to think of something.

"I've seen General Zhao!" Come and bow your hand as a courtesy. Zhao Feng paid attention to it. This man was probably a Confucian student in his forties, with a goatee, which seemed to have some intention of annihitrition.

"Who is under your feet?" Zhao Feng frowned and asked, I don't know why this person's temperament made him feel very uncomfortable.

"In the lower Xinpi, the word Zuozhi, is a long history under the account of the king of Wei. Today, Hanzhong is not for others, but to save the general's surname!" After Xin Pi introduced himself, he began to be alarmist again.

After listening to this, Zhao Feng couldn't help feeling a headache. Last time I saw Kan Ze in Jiangdong, and this time it was Xin Pi again. However, with a headache, Zhao Feng still reluctantly asked, "I don't know what kind of fate Zhao has?"

"Does the general know the story of the Marquis of Huaiyin?" Xin Pi asked with a smile. This time, not only Zhao Feng, but also Fa Zheng and others frowned when they heard it. Just so bluntly to sow dissenging, this Xin Pi's brain is really not easy to use!

"The general has followed Liu Xuande for many years. Now the official is just a county guard. He is not rewarded for his meritorious service, but he is degraded without fault. It shows that Liu Xuande is very suspicious of his feet. As the saying goes, if you suspect the minister, you will die. Isn't your feet in danger?" Xin Pi continued with a smile, as if he didn't worry about Zhao Feng's attack. As soon as he said this, everyone in the account stared at Zhao Feng and let's see how he dealt with it.

"Is that all you want to say?" Zhao Feng asked after he finished speaking.

"My lord, the king of Wei, has accepted the talents of the world. The general is a famous general in the world. Why do you succumb to Hanzhong? The king of Wei said first. If the general is willing to go to Xuchang to serve in the court, the king of Wei is willing to show that the general is the general of the west, the Marquis of Southern Zheng! The soldiers and horses of Governor Yongliang. Xin Pi finally said Cao's bargaining chip.

Zhao Feng is now the left general of the State of Qi, and the rank of officials is still slightly worse than that of the four towns of the imperial court. It should be said that the chips issued by Cao Qian are still relatively high. The problem is that Zhao Feng is not interested in relying for Cao Qian at all.

Compared with Zhang Fei and Guan Yu, Zhao Feng knew that Liu Bei's trust in him was definitely worse, and may not even be as good as Jian Yong. Over the years, my official position has been swaying between the governor and the state herdsman, neither high to low, and not embarrassing. And Liu Bei's attitude towards himself is also like a departure. Perhaps with more and more talents under his command, I'm afraid that I can only live like this with my qualifications.

But even so, Zhao Feng did not want to betray Liu Bei and turn to Cao Yan. First of all, his ambition in life is to calm the world as soon as possible. He has never paid much attention to some personal gains and losses. It's good not to be cooked by rabbits and dogs. His family business is very large, and he is not afraid of having no source of livelihood. If it is against the water now, not to mention that his reputation will be damaged, the wives and children who stay in Jingzhou are also bad. Once Hanzhong is owned by Cao, it will make the world, which was already quite clear, fall into chaos again. Based on these points, Zhao Feng will never change the door.

Looking at Xin Pi in front of him, Zhao Feng found another problem: Xin Pi was once Yuan Shao's counselor, but later transferred to Cao Qian. If you are at ordinary times, you can scold him righteously. But now that the two surrenderers, Fa Zheng and Meng Da, are here, I can't scold him for selling his master for glory, which simply refers to the monk scolding the bald donkey. But if you don't show your position, it will be too easy to get associations if you say it in the future. Once a person with a heart thinks of it, it's hard to say.

His mind quickly changed, and Zhao Feng had found an extremely appropriate excuse. Looking at Xin Pi, who was complacent in front of him, Zhao Feng snorted and said, "I met Cao Mengde in Xuzhou. This person is cruel and murderous. He did not hesitate to slaughter 400,000 people in Xuzhou to avenge his father! Even if Zhao is unworthy, he doesn't want to be inferior to this kind of beast.

If you want to say that Zhao Feng is to avoid the important, it's light. He doesn't talk about whether he betrays his master for glory, but turns to the old story of arresting Cao Jian to slaughter the city. The reputation of slaughtering the city is very bad, and few people like to associate with this kind of people. Zhao Feng not only expressed his position, but also took care of Fa Zheng and Meng Da's face.

"This?" When Xin Pi heard this, he was about to say it again. Zhao Feng waved his hand, and Niu Jin had led several people to surround Xin Pi. Xin Pi's face changed slightly and he sneered, "Why, does General Zhao want to kill the envoy?"

"The two armies are at war, and they don't kill. But for a man like you who is willing to be a murderous dog, there is no need to be polite! Come on, take all this man's clothes for me, and show it to the public for three weeks as a sign of punishment!"

"Yes!" Niu Jin responded to the promise, and several people stepped forward to take Sempira away. Xin Pi shouted and scolded wildly, but it was inevitable to be naked. However, what Zhao Feng didn't expect was that what he did this time was so shocking that it caused another uproar among the scholars and doctors.

Zhao Feng naturally doesn't know all this now. The next afternoon after sending Xin Pi away, the 5,000 Danyang elite soldiers led by He Qi also arrived in Nanzheng through the three counties of Shangyong. At the same time, Lu Xun, the governor of Shangyong, and Ma Yu, the governor of Xicheng, also followed.
