Chapter 620 Ask a counselor

Seeing that Liu Bei attached great importance to Mr. Wolong, who had not yet met, Zhang Fei could only stand aside honestly. At the beginning of spring, the weather was still a little cold. Liu Bei couldn't help shivering. It had been an hour, but he didn't expect that Mr. Wolong was still awake.

However, Liu Bei also showed a patient side. At that time, he was just a depressed Han clan who was selling mats and weaving shoes. He has today's career and relies on his own ability. If he doesn't have this patience, he doesn't have to hire Mr. Wolong.

Another half an hour passed, and Mr. Wolong finally woke up. After that, the plot was naturally amazing that Wolong's words were amazing. Liu Bei's on-demand was like enlightenment. After a plea, Mr. Wolong agreed to go out of the mountain to assist Liu Bei and Zhongxing Han Room.

The counselor pays attention to reputation. Liu Bei is the name of the clan of the Han Dynasty, which can attract a large number of talents for him. However, at this time, he is living under the command of Liu Biao. In addition, Liu Biao is the emperor to the outside world, so many counselors naturally filter Liu Bei.

Zhuge Liang has a great reputation in Jingzhou. He has never turned to Liu Biao. He also believes that Liu Biao does not want to make progress and is not enough to achieve great things. Even if he claims to be the emperor, he can't achieve an emperor. Although he has something to do with Liu Biao, Zhuge Liang has never gone to serve. He only exists as a free man in Jingzhou. As for the title of Wolong, it is the title given by many people who appreciate Zhuge Liang's talent, and Zhuge Liang himself is often compared with Guan Zhong Leyi. Needless to say, Longzhong is even more convinced by Liu Bei.

Liu Bei sighed, "Mr. Wolong is like a fish with water."

Zhang Fei is not interested in this white-faced scholar. He is keen to attack the fierce generals on the battlefield. If Zhuge Liang is long and has exquisite martial arts, he will definitely be able to get the favor of Zhang Fei. Moreover, Liu Bei has gone several times before before that he finally saw this famous Wolong. Zhang Fei has already If there are complaints, just wait to make Zhuge Liang ugly on the battlefield in the future. Aren't you water? I, Lao Zhang, will let your water dry up.

"Sir, this third brother is also a fierce general in the army." Liu Bei pointed to Zhang Fei and introduced.

Zhuge Liang just nodded slightly and was not too eager, which made Zhang Fei suddenly dissatisfied. He was about to say a few words. Seeing the eldest brother's face, he hurriedly stopped. When he hadn't seen Zhuge Liang before, his words had made the eldest brother very dissatisfied. He didn't want to cause himself and Liu because of a counselor. There is a gap between Bei. Over the years, Zhang Fei has caused a lot of disasters, and Liu Bei has taken it every time. Zhang Fei is more loyal to Liu Bei in addition to being moved.

"I've met you, sir." Zhang Fei holds the boxing.

Zhuge Liang did not care about the dissatisfaction in Zhang Fei's tone. He said with a smile, "General Zhang is a fierce general in the army. On the battlefield in the future, he hopes to kill more enemies and create a great career for the lord."

Zhang Fei hugged his fist and said, "No." I don't think so in my heart.

After getting Zhuge Liang, Liu Bei's fighting spirit is high. Mr. Wolong is very famous in Jingzhou. Although Liu Bei got Zhuge Liang, he did not dare to trust him too much. He still needed to take the school examination, but he did not show it on the surface.

"Sir, please hurry back to Xinye. Cao's army invaded Jingzhou. It is expected that the troops will reach Xinye in the future. Although there is a second brother guard in the city, I dare not take it lightly." Liu Beidao.

Zhuge Liang told the boy to leave with Liu Bei and Zhang Fei without any items, which made Liu Bei a little impressed. It was also very rare for a counselor to be so free and easy.

No wonder Zhang Fei looks down on Zhuge Liang. In terms of age, Zhuge Liang is just a hairy young man. No matter how famous he is, he can't have any great skills. What's more, Zhuge Liang is just a scholar between the mountains and the mountains. I'm afraid he doesn't even know how many princes in the world.

Jingzhou is extremely lively, and Chang'an also began to mobilized soldiers and horses. Because the geographical location of Luoyang is very important, Zhao Yun was left in Luyang to prevent Cao's army.

This battle against Jizhou is related to the further development of the Xiliang Army. Jia Rong naturally attached great importance to mobilizing 50,000 soldiers and horses to visit Changshan.

Although the movement of the Xiliang Army was very secretive, Yuan Shao still got the news at the beginning of the Xiliang Army. To be honest, Yuan Shao had already hated the Xiliang Army to death, was capricious, and constantly took advantage of it. Youzhou and Bingzhou was also included in his hands. Even Zhuo County was given to him by Yuan Shao. Who knew that this person was still not satisfied, again Xingbing invaded and lost Qingzhou and Zhuo County one after another, and Yuan Shao's strength declined to a higher level.

In terms of military strength, there are nearly 200,000 combatable soldiers in Yuan Shao's hand. Even if they are not as good as the elites of the Xiliang Army, they are not afraid. They guard Jizhou with nearly 200,000 troops. Yuan Shao is confident to defend Jizhou and let the Xiliang Army hit their heads and break the blood.

Changshan and Zhongshan and Hejian are both bordering the Xiliang army. Yuan Shao had sent heavy troops to guard before. After hearing the news of the Xiliang army's activating troops, there was not much panic.

After learning the news that the Xiliang army attacked Jizhou, the counselors in Jizhou looked a little panicked. After all, over the years, the Xiliang army has been defeated almost every battle. The only time they suffered a big loss was because of Li Ru's betrayal, and it was that time that the reputation of the Xiliang army reached its peak.

Xu You constantly made suggestions for Yuan Shao to resist the Western Liang Army. The strategy was moderate and there were many strange tricks, which made Yuan Shao pay more attention to Xu You. He almost announced on the surface that Xu You was the first counselor in Jizhou. The reason why Xu You tried so hard was that he received a letter from Chang'an and asked him to advise Yuan Shao to add The defensive force of the Great Frontier, and Yuan Shao first learned that the news that the Xiliang Army was going to rise up troops also came from Xu You, so he looked at Xu You more with new eyes.

Although Xu You didn't understand why Chang'an had such a strange order, he still implemented it. During that time in Chang'an, he was familiar with some systems of the Xiliang Army, and he was usually afraid that he would be offended.

Divide the army into two directions. Guo Yan, the commander of the first army, 30,000 soldiers, Jia Rong personally suppressed the array, and the second army, came to Changshan. At the same time, Huang Zhong, who was far away in Youzhou, also made a move to support the Xiliang Army, and constantly mobilized the army to let the town stay in Zhongshan. , can only defend with troops and dare not support Changshan.

It has been more than two years since the establishment of the Xiliang Army. It has five ships and more than 20 warships. There are countless small boats. With the support of strong financial resources, it has developed rapidly. Of course, this also has an inseparable relationship with the merchants and people in Chang'an. Over the years, the merchants and people have been the army. However, there is a lot of investment, especially the merchants who are rich. Every time they take out a lot of money. Whenever the Liang Palace makes this money public, it will cause a burst of **. In the end, everyone is also used to it. The officials of Chang'an dare not make any small actions. They are all open accounts, all used to build a water army. Or strengthen the city walls, so that merchants and the people can experience their own use.

These buildings and boats, even the Jingzhou navy will be shocked when they see it. Looking at it from afar, it is like a steel fortress standing on the surface of the water. Under the sunlight, it shoots a little cold light. In the past two years, although the sailor has made many moves, there is no big action, but no It has attracted the attention of the princes. Many counselors of the princes even think that Jia Rong's training of the water army has no use. In the Central Plains, the Xiliang Army has no foundation. Even if it goes downstream and occupies some small places, it will be quickly wiped out. The water army may have strong combat effectiveness on the water, but on land, the princes still don't pay attention to it. Even the Xiliang Water Army is no exception.

The resistance suffered by Guo Wei, the first coach of the first road, in Changshan, was naturally very fierce. It seemed that he provoked the invincible Xiliang Army. He directly used the crossbow Thunderbolt car and other things to beat the defenders in the city so that they did not dare to show their heads. Under such a fierce offensive, even Yan Liang was a little unable to stand it and hurriedly sent someone to Yuan Shao for help.

The attack of the Xiliang army was not small. Yuan Shao sent 20,000 soldiers and horses to Changshan, and even did not hesitate to make some wine and meat to reward the soldiers in the army.

The Jizhou army moved, and the counselors naturally kept making suggestions. Jizhou became very lively. Of course, the market was a little desolate. After hearing the news, many businessmen hurriedly transferred their belongings. At this time, Jizhou was already very unsafe in their eyes. It was a joke that even a strong city like Luyang was The Liang army attacked, not to mention Jizhou.

It was under Yuan Shao's mandatory order that the situation in the city stabilized.

As the commander-in-chief, Guo Yan naturally understood the intention of Jia Rongming to attack Changshan, so he spared no effort. The 30,000 troops had lost nearly 2,000 people, and the walls of Changshan were stained with blood everywhere.

When Jia Rong personally led the army to the city of Changshan, Yan Liang panicked. The shadow of the famous tree, Jia Rong was famous all over the world. Even if there were 40,000 people in the city, Yan Liang was still a little unconfident and asked Yuan Shao for help again.

When Jia Rong saw the report of the loss of the Xiliang army, his face couldn't help pulling down. These soldiers were all heavily trained and tested by the war. Although the war over the years had made Jia Rong numb, he understood the kindness of the soldiers thoroughly. At this time, it was inevitable that he felt a little for the soldiers. Not worth it.

Pressing down the thoughts in his heart, Jia Rong said, "Who will be the guard in the city?"

"Yan Liang, Zhang Jian, both of them are fierce generals of the Jizhou army. Zhang Qian has a big halberd in his hand to help defend the city. Every time he resolve our army's offensive, which is very difficult to deal with." Guo Yan said with deep emotion.

"There are about 40,000 defenders in the city. It is impossible for our army to completely surround the Yuan family and can only launch an attack from one wall." Guo Yan said.
