Chapter 175: The Honor of Ninety-five
? Chapter 175 The Lord of Ninety-Five
Yan Liang and Wen Chou came to Li Zhe's mansion. When he arrived at the door of the mansion, Yan Liang and Wen Chou said respectfully to the guards: "Yan Liang Wen Chou came here to see his lord, please inform us."
The guard said, "Please come in, lord, have been waiting for you in there for a long time."
The two looked at each other and were very confused. How did the lord know what we were coming today?
Then the two entered the mansion and rushed directly to the hall. They happened to see Li Zhe bent down and looked at a large large picture, with Pang Tong and Zhuge Liang behind them.
This picture was drawn by Zhuge Liang personally facing the idea map of Xichuan on Li Zhe's computer, and it has been expanded dozens of times. There are mountains and rivers on it and how many soldiers are stationed, which can be vaguely visible.
Yan Liang and Wen Chou came to the back of the hall, knelt on the ground and kowtowed, "I will pay my respects to the lord."
Li Zhe heard the voice and turned around and said, "You are here, get up quickly, there are no outsiders here, so there is no need to salute."
Yan Liang and Wen Chou felt so comfortable after hearing this sentence. A few days ago, Li Zhe was greeted and treated them like a brother who had been in trouble for many years, and his heart suddenly became much warmer.
After Yan Liang and Wen Chou got up, Li Zhe said, "Come on, let's take a look at this together."
Yan Liang and Wen Chou saw the words "Xichuan Strategic Map" written on the map. When their eyes lit up, they went up and looked carefully. The more Yan Liang looked, he became more and more frightened. Every city and Sichuan fortress, and many soldiers were written in detail. There were a few small green lines on it. Yan Liang asked: "Master, what do these green lines mean?"
Li Zhe smiled and said, "It's too early to say these places now. I'll tell you when the time comes."
Yan Liang said: "Does your lord want to march into Liuyizhou, Xichuan?"
Zhuge Liang said: "Yes, with this map, we can say that we have won, and there is no suspense of the great victory."
Pang Tong said: "Yizhou has only 200,000 troops, but its citizens are as many as 5 million. Moreover, Yizhou is a large granary, and its annual grain can nourish millions of illnesses. With the land of Xichuan, it can supply all our army's food. If you get this place, the lord can be called emperor."
After hearing this, Li Zhe immediately said in his heart: "There are no outsiders here, so don't say this. As the people of the Han Dynasty, we should do our part to the Han Dynasty. Moreover, the Han Emperor is still in the hands of Cao Cao. We have not been able to rescue the sinner who is already a Han Dynasty. We still want to usurp the Han Dynasty and become independent. Do you want to push me to a state of unkindness and unrighteousness?"
Pang Tong was surprised at the time. He did not expect the lord to refute this way. He knelt down and said, "Lord, my subordinates know that they are wrong."
Li Zhe walked to his side, patted Pang Tong's shoulder intentionally and said, "Shi Yuan quickly, it's nothing to say about this here, but I'm going to the hall to say that I'll be merciless at that time."
Pang Tong looked at Li Zhe's hand and patted his shoulder. Pang Tong understood what Li Zhe meant. Pang Tong knew in his heart that this was not the time. The time was not ripe. When the time was ripe, the lord would not be able to ascend the throne. All the ministers would support the lord to be emperor.
Li Zhe said to Yan Liang and Wen Chou: "I have an important task to you and the two of you."
Yan Liang and Wen Chou said, "Please give me the order."
Li Zhe said: "I will fight against Liu Zhang from Xichuan tomorrow. I will ask two good people to defend the rear of Jingchu. The important task I have given you is to let you defend Jingchu to the death."
Yan Liangwen Chou knelt down and took the order.
Li Zhe asked: "I ask you, what will you do if Cao's army attacks?"
Yan Liang and Wen Chou said: "We open the city to welcome the enemy."
Zhuge Liang said: "In this way, Jingzhou will definitely lose to Cao Cao. You two remember one thing. No matter how you provoke it, you two must defend the city to the death and not leave the city to fight."
After hearing this, the two Ying Nuo said, "I will remember it."
Zhuge Liang said: "You two led your troops to the guards of Runan and Fancheng by yourself. The local people and horses listened to you. This is the lord's handwritten letter. When you arrive, you will help you defend the city."
Yan Liang asked, "Lord, how many soldiers are there in Nanyang and Fancheng?"
Pang Tong said: "There are 30,000 soldiers and horses in Nanyang County, and 20,000 soldiers and horses in Runan City, and 20,000 soldiers and horses in Fan City. Your headquarters has 20,000 soldiers and horses, and a total of 90,000 soldiers and horses to defend the city, which should be enough."
Yan Liang was very surprised after hearing this. They had just arrived for a few days, but they didn't expect to get Li Zhe so trust, giving them 70,000 soldiers in their hands. The soldiers in their hands were trust.
Yan Liang knelt down and kowtowed and said, "Don't worry, lord, our brothers will swear to protect Nanyang County to the death and will never let Cao's army enter Jingchu."
Li Zhe said: "There is a tip here that can be opened at the most critical moment."
Yan Liang took the tips and walked out to rectify the troops.
Zhuge Liang said to Li Zhe: "Lord, have you handed over the military power to them so hasty?"
Li Zhe smiled and said, "It's okay, Yan Liang and Wen Chou are famous generals. I think they have a grudge against Cao Cao, so they will definitely not let Cao Cao enter Jingchu."
Zhuge Liang said: "Lord, it's because of revenge that I'm afraid they will go out of the city to fight Cao's army, which will ruin a big deal."
Li Zhe said: "It depends on God's will."
Li Zhe said to Zhuge Liang and Pang Tong: "Tomorrow, we will call up all ministers to discuss matters. Everyone will go back early to rest, keep a clear mind, and spend more time with their family."
The two of them agreed to the promise and stepped back. Pang Tong and Zhuge Liang walked out and said, "Kong Ming, I just said that I would let the lord become a 95th, what do you think?"
Zhuge Liang shook his feather fan and smiled, "The lord doesn't agree, but he thinks psychologically, but he can't."
Pang Tong said: "If we attack Yizhou, our Jingchu will be even bigger than Cao Cao in the north. Cao Cao has no choice but to stare at us."
Zhuge Liang smiled and said, "Let's talk about it at that time. Now is not the time to discuss the matter of the Ninth Five, but to focus on Xichuan's great mission."
