Chapter 625: Peace Ambassador Wang Situ
?Zhang Fei was the second only general in the Northern Army after Lu Zhi. He was the goalkeeper guarding Luoyang City back then, so although he dressed like a beggar and did not have Lu Yin and official talismans to prove his identity, he still easily walked into the west gate of Luoyang City.
Because the general on duty who guarded the Ximen was the personal soldiers around him when he was the goalkeeper!
When the new goalkeeper saw Zhang Fei who was lost and out, he thought he was dreaming. Because he really couldn't imagine what kind of blows and setbacks he had experienced to torture General Yide, who was like a war god in his mind, to this extent!
The goalkeeper carefully found a carriage and drove Zhang Fei to the mansion of Tingwei Liu Bei. He had been following Zhang Fei for many years and knew very well that at this time, he must not send Zhang Fei to his mansion, but must hand Zhang Fei safely and smoothly to Lord Tingwei. Because Lord Tingwei and General Zhang are brothers who are worshipped by the commander, General Zhang encountered difficulties, that is, Lord Tingwei encountered difficulties, and he would definitely help Zhang Fei solve them with determination.
Liu Bei, who was inexplicably irritable these days, was playing chess with Kong Ming in the living room. Suddenly, he heard his disciples come closer and whisper: "General Sun, who is guarding the West Gate, comes to the mansion with General Zhang."
Liu Bei was puzzled and asked, "Which General Zhang?"
The disciple whispered: "General Zhang Yide and Zhang, who are stationed in Yang County, Hedong!"
When Liu Bei heard this, he knew that something big happened. According to the laws of the Han court, generals who were commanding troops outside could not enter the capital without the summons from the emperor or the court. Since Zhang Fei took the risk to Luoyang, it means that something huge happened.
Liu Bei threw down the chess piece in his hand, turned around and followed his disciples to see Zhang Fei. Zhuge Liang also followed Liu Bei with a gloomy face at this time, wanting to see what was going on.
It was very similar to the feeling of the first meeting with Zhang Fei, and Liu Bei was also surprised and had nothing to say. However, Kong Ming behind him said first: "Gatekeeper Sun, I'm sorry, you will send General Zhang to the mansion and invite you to the Zuixianlou for a drink next day!"
General Sun was a clever man. He knew that there were very important things to say at this time, so he quickly said "Thank you for your care" and quickly left Liu Bei's mansion.
Liu Bei was not in a hurry to ask Zhang Fei what happened, but immediately ordered his subordinates to prepare hot water for bathing, changing casual clothes, and a table of lighter meals for Zhang Fei.
Under the service of the servants of the Liu Mansion, Zhang Fei was washed away by someone's face and changed into a cotton coat smoked with high-end sandalwood. After drinking two bowls of lotus seed porridge, he gradually recovered.
In Liu Bei's study, Zhang Fei knelt down to Liu Bei with tears on his face, and then choked and said, "Brother, Yide is ashamed of your trust and trust! All the 30,000 elite soldiers stationed in Hedong are all..."
Liu Bei listened to Zhang Fei explaining the whole story carefully, and then felt internal angina pectoris. He was both heartbroken by the 30,000 yuan that he had finally saved, and was also uncomfortable with Zhang Fei's disaster. Liu Bei knew very well that if Zhang Fei could not cheer up in the future, he would be afraid that a living general would be so useless.
Holding the pain in his heart, Liu Bei helped Zhang Fei up and down with his hands, and then comforted him with tears, "Good brother, if the soldiers are gone, we can recruit and train again, you must survive this level! Do you still remember the oath we made in your brother's backyard to the Tianmeng oath? We brothers have difficulties and share blessings. Even if we encounter a huge disaster, as long as we work together, we will definitely be able to survive it!"
After comforting Zhang Fei, watching his brother finally fall asleep with a tired look on his face, Liu Bei got up and went to the living room. Seeing Kong Ming sitting quietly in front of the chessboard waiting for him, Liu Bei felt a little better again.
As long as Kong Ming is here, Liu Bei seems to be more confident and calm.
"The 30,000 Northern Army in Hedong is over. It was designed by Li Jinwu and Pang Tong. I heard from my third brother that Jin State now has very terrifying weapons and cannot even see the figure, it can launch dense rockets like rain. It is a fatal blow to the troops using gunpowder!" Liu Bei sorted out the chessboard that he had just messed up, while calmly telling Kong Ming and Qinshui's miserable defeat.
After hearing this, Kong Ming smiled bitterly and said, "I really didn't expect that the Shiyuan who studied with me, who has now become the minion of Zhao Xing, and he could come up with such a sinister and vicious plan. First, attack with fire and then flood with water. It's really a good method!"
Liu Bei said with a sad look: "Zhao Xing's method of recruiting talents is amazing. He really uses everything he wants. Over the years, the civil and military people who have been deceived and abducted by his clever words and deceitful words are unknown. Pang Tong is just one of them. Could it be that this person is really the destiny?"
"Why did the lord say this? Just like today, my son is in the temple, his close and loyal ministers and good generals, and the Han Dynasty has good weather and good harvests year by year, which is a sign of great governance. Although Zhao Guochang has some tricks, he will not be able to enter the Great Hall of Elegance. Nowadays, most of the sects hate him, where does he have the destiny come from?" Zhuge Liang refuted Liu Bei in a rare way, and what he said made Liu Bei very useful.
Liu Bei asked Kong Ming: "Now that the situation in Hedong is so deteriorating, my third brother is a defeated general, and he has secretly returned to Luoyang. What should I do?"
Kong Ming replied: "The news of blocking the defeat of Hedong is that there will be no troops stationed in Hedong for the time being, and Jin will be left to trouble. He immediately persuaded the emperor and ordered General Zhang to be mobilized to Jizhou to replace Zhu Yan's position, and then recruit 80,000 new soldiers again and handed over to General Zhu to lead him!"
Liu Bei nodded, agreed with Kong Ming's suggestion, and then asked: "Hedong Salt Pond was destroyed and the salt workers were captured. The news will eventually reach Luoyang. Maybe it has reached Luoyang now. There are many people in the court who are jealous of the third brother's position. Now that the Northern Army is defeated, it will not be able to hide it for a long time. So what should I do?"
Kong Ming replied again: "Put all the shit pots on Zhao Xing's head, and it was said that Jin State sent a 100,000 army to attack Hedong. General Zhang resisted the tiger and wolf army of Jin State with his weak brigade for half a month. In the end, because the enemy was large and we were scarce, we could not support it, so the army was defeated."
Liu Bei asked Kong Ming’s last question: “I heard from my third brother that there were still some defeated generals in the Northern Army who were captured by Jin State. Fu Zu and Yang Yi and other generals who remained in the rear army may still be alive. How should we deal with it?”
Kong Ming thought for a moment and replied: "Zhao Guochang conspired to design General Zhang this time, but he was afraid there were other plans. If I had a good guess, he would definitely force the court to re-appoint the prefectures of Jizhou and Qingzhou according to his wishes! So we might as well use the captured soldiers as bargaining chips and let Zhao Guochang's father-in-law Wang Yun go to Shangdang to ask for people!"
Liu Bei said: "It seems that this is the only thing now. In any case, I will protect my third brother first. As for how to negotiate with Zhao Xing, the old guy Wang Yun really has a good time, so he is the most suitable one."
Liu Bei and Kong Ming's plan made Wang Yun, who had gradually developed a desire to retire, once again act as the "peace ambassador". I just don't know if Zhao Xing, the cheap son-in-law, would be willing to let Wei Yan go, Fu Zu and Yang Yi, who were finally able to catch talents? ~ See the first release without any advertisements, please come to "
