Chapter [151] Zhang Ren: Kill Lu Bu's Prestige
Liu Ba was stunned on the spot, and after a long while whispered: "My lord, please speak clearly, this matter cannot be messed up.
"Oh~ it's Ah Weng." Liu Zhang sighed, "It seems that he still didn't hide it. The court must have heard something."
"What did Lao Zhou Mu do?" Liu Ba asked.
Liu Ba entered Shu after the death of Liu Yan, so he is not clear about the previous events.
"When Ah Weng was here, he had some unclear relationships with Ma Teng and Han Sui." Liu Zhang shook his head and said, "But it's nothing, and it doesn't explain anything."
"The key point is that A Weng once built a palace in Mianzhu and built thousands of chariots...
Liu Ba was dumbfounded when he heard that, there are thousands of vehicles, not to mention the specifications, they have already exceeded the limit in terms of quantity alone.
It was Liu Yan who proposed to the central government to abolish the system of history and animal husbandry at the end of the Han Dynasty.
Liu Yan saw that there was a tendency for chaos in the world, so he wanted to find a way out for his "163".
Originally, Liu Yan planned to go to Jiaozhou to be the shepherd of the state. The sky was high and the emperor was far away. Even if the Central Plains was overwhelmed, the war would not spread to Jiaozhou.
This idea was really good, but Liu Yan changed his mind later, because Liu Yan heard from others that there is a son of heaven in Shu, so he changed his mind even if he changed his mind and chose to come to Yizhou to serve as the state shepherd.
When Liu Yan gained a firm foothold in Yizhou, and the court really failed, Liu Yan had some thoughts.
Historically, Ma Teng and Han Sui attacked Chang'an, which was planned by Liu Yan, but failed in the end.
Even Liu Biao next door could see Liu Yan's ambitions, and even impeached Liu Yan with the court: there is no such thing as Zixia doubting a saint in Xihe.
The government of Yizhou was originally not in Chengdu, but in Mianzhu. Liu Yan built a palace in Mianzhu, and built a thousand chariots and chariots.
"Why haven't you seen that humble official?" Liu Ba asked hastily.
"An accidental fire broke out, and the fire burned the whole of Mianzhu, including the palace and the chariots." Liu Zhang sighed and said, "Ah Weng thought it was God warning him, so he didn't dare to move the government office to Chengdu in the end.
"It's over." Liu Ba spread his hands, and now he lost his temper.
I thought that Lu was not a framer, but I didn't expect that it was true, and Liu Ba's anger dissipated immediately.
Lu Bu can also be regarded as a blind cat meeting a dead mouse. Originally, the label was just to find any reason to start a war. Obviously, framing Liu Zhang for rebellion is the most suitable reason.
I didn't expect that a random buckle would really have something to do with it, and Liu Zhang felt guilty all of a sudden.
"Zichu, what should we do now?" Liu Zhang said distressedly, "Ah Weng committed the crime, but now he has passed away, so I am wronged!"
Liu Ba rolled his eyes, and said to himself that you have been wronged! In the case of treason, it started with the barbarians, and you are not wronged at all.
But this kind of words are just complaining in my heart, Liu Ba definitely can't say it directly.
"I learned from the soldiers who escaped from the Jiange that Lu Bu only brought a battalion of troops, not many troops." Liu Ba said slowly: "My lord, you can gather all your troops and rush to the front line to recapture the Jiange. Blocking the road to Shu, relying on the geographical advantage in the middle of Shu, the lord still has the possibility to settle down in a corner.
"Okay, okay! If you prefer to be safe, you will prefer to be safe. I don't want to fight for world hegemony, just let me live in peace and stability." Liu Zhang hurriedly agreed.
"Come here, order the whole army to assemble and drive to Jiange immediately." Liu Zhang ordered loudly.
"My lord, there is one more thing, I have to remind you." Liu Basu said.
"Please tell me, Zichu." Liu Zhang looked serious.
"Zhang Song!" Liu Ba said in a deep voice: "Some soldiers said that it was Zhang Song who cheated to open the gate of the Jiange city, Zhang Song must have betrayed if nothing else happened.
Liu Zhang's face was full of surprise when he heard this, and he paced back and forth in the hall with his hands behind his back.
"Put Zhang Song's family in custody and restrict their freedom. Don't be negligent in the slightest." Liu Zhang finally said.
"My lord means..."
"If we win this battle, it's not too late to disrespect the monkey." Liu Zhang sighed, "If I lose...I want to leave a way out for myself."
After winning the battle, Lu Bu and Zhang Song had no choice but to kill Liu Zhang. They killed Zhang Song's family to vent their anger and frighten other people with two hearts in Shu, which is naturally very appropriate.
But if they lost the battle, when Lu Bu and Zhang Song invaded Chengdu and found that Zhang Song's family had been killed, Zhang Song would definitely not spare Liu Zhang.
Liu Zhang still knows the truth of staying on the front line so that we can meet each other in the future.
"I treated Zhang Song well. He must feel guilty for betraying me. No matter how kind I treat his family, he can't just sit idly by."
"What's more, once Yizhou is taken by Lu Bu, Zhang Song must be the first to win."
"With Zhang Song, a person who made the first contribution, begging for me, I think it's not a big problem to live."
Liu Ba looked at Liu Zhang silently, and said after a long while, "My lord is very thoughtful, I really didn't expect such a humble job."
"Hehe, I just don't have big ambitions, and I'm not a fool. Naturally, I will think a lot about life-threatening matters..." Liu Zhang shook his head.
"My lord, which general will be the vanguard for this expedition?" Liu Ba asked instead.
"Zhang Ren." Liu Zhang nodded.
"Promise." Liu Ba promised, "I will pass the order on the humble post."
Following Liu Zhang's order, all the central Shu army was mobilized, with a total of 50,000 troops, and Zhang Ren led 10,000 vanguards first.
The limit force that Yizhou can support is about 100,000, including Hanzhong.
If we only talk about the middle of Shu, that is about 70,000 to 80,000 people.
However, Liu Zhang had no intention of pioneering and forging ahead, and only wanted to defend his success. Relying on the geographical advantage in central Shu, a 50,000 army was enough to defend, so he did not expand his army wildly.
Liu Zhang never dreamed that the defense line that was originally impenetrable, the Jiange Pass like a natural moat, was actually opened by Zhang Song.
Sure enough, the solid fortress was disintegrated from the inside.
Jiange.
Lu Bu stood at the top of the pass, with his palms resting on his forehead to shade him, and looked into the distance.
"Tsk tsk, Pingyuan is going fast. It only takes three days, and the opponent's vanguard army will arrive." Lu Bu couldn't help feeling, "It is estimated that the main force will arrive in two days.
"Ming Gong, how is your injury?" Zhang Song on the side asked with concern.
At present, there is only the trapped camp in the pass, with a total of 3,000 people, which is really too few to match.
Whether Lu Bu recovers from his injury or not is related to the direction of this battle.
Stretching out his hand and pulling it, Lu Bu took off the single clothes on his body, revealing a strong body covered with blood scabs.
The body exerts force, the muscles tense and bulge.
With a crisp crackling sound, all the blood scabs on Lu Bu's body fell off, and the injuries on his body had already healed, only dots of light-colored scars.
"Duke Ming recovered?!" Zhang Song couldn't believe it.
"Hahaha!" Lu Bu looked up to the sky and laughed loudly, deliberately raised his voice and said, "How can a small injury hurt me?"
It's not Lu Bu's flirt, the action just now was intentional.
The purpose is to let the whole army see that Lu Bu has recovered, so that the soldiers don't have to worry about it, and it can also boost morale a little by the way.
"Roar! Roar! Roar!"
The soldiers trapped in the camp at the pass all waved their weapons excitedly.
In the distance, Zhang Ren couldn't help frowning when he saw the camp that couldn't help cheering, "The morale is high, obviously it's not a good thing, I have to kill their prestige.
"Come here, go to the front of the pass to fight and call for battle."
