After leaving the prefecture, Zuo CI went back to his residence. The place where he lives now is aboveboard and there is no hidden trace so that Zhang Lu can find it.
If Zuo CI wanted to hide his whereabouts in Nanzheng, wouldn't he have made it clear that he was suspected. Therefore, it is Zuo Ci's aboveboard attitude that can make people not doubt and make Zhang Lu feel at ease.
When Zuo CI returned to his house, he went straight to the backyard and knocked on the wall which was only one wall away from the next. With the bang bang sound, not long after that, a ladder was set up on the opposite side. Pang Tong climbed up the wall and entered the yard quickly.
Pang Tong lived in a hiding place.
But he lived next door to Zuo Ci, so easy to contact.
Seeing Zuo Ci, Pang Tong asked, "Taoist priest Zuo, is there any new progress?"
"Yes, and it's a big step forward."
Zuo CI answered with a look of excitement in his eyes.
Pang Tong said, "what's the matter?"
Zuo CI couldn't wait to say: "this evening, I left Yanpu in Nanzheng and came back to Taishou's mansion again. He came to the prefect's house to see Zhang Lu. He didn't know that Zhang Lu was talking with me. "
"Zhang Lu is sincere in Taoism and is extremely obsessed with Taoism. In particular, Zhang Lu's wudoumi Road, though handed down from Zhang Daoling, has many imperfections. "
"Although it has its advantages, its theory is insufficient. After all, Zhang Lu did not study Taoist classics. So here I am, he keeps learning. "
Zuo CI said with emotion: "speaking of it, Zhang Lu is really gifted in Taoist learning. He can draw inferences from one instance. Even what he said the day before, by the next day, he is already familiar with it and can grasp it easily."
Pang Tong waved his hand and interrupted: "Taoist Zuo, don't talk about Zhang Lu, let's talk about Yan Pu. Zhang Lu has little to do with us. Yan Pu asked to see Zhang Lu. What happened to the follow-up? "
Zuo CI went on to say, "at that time, Yanpu wanted to see Zhang Lu, but Zhang Lu was obsessed with Taoism, so he didn't care about Yanpu. I didn't expect that Yan Pu didn't leave the prefect's residence. Instead, he was waiting in the hall until late at night. "
"That's when I'm ready to leave."
"It happened that Yan Lu left the garden himself."
"Yanpu immediately thought that I was plotting against Zhang Lu, and Zhang Lu was the one who sent me to deal with me. Zhang Lu is now convinced of me, plus I have previously made clear the identity, Zhang Lu is not willing to deal with me
Zuo CI said: "who knows, Yan Pu knelt down and asked Zhang Lu to make a choice. Yan Pu and I can only save one. Finally, Zhang Lu put Yan Pu in prison. Today's Yan Pu is in custody. "
"Wonderful, wonderful!"
Pang Tong looked happy and said, "when the Lord attacked Hanzhong, he didn't worry about Zhang Lu or Zhang Lu's army. Only Yan Pu was afraid of him. Because Yan Pu is a visionary man in Hanzhong, who has a great influence on the Lord when he is around Zhang Lu. "
Zuo CI said, "what Pang Shangshu said is true."
After a pause, Zuo CI said, "it's just that Yanpu left Nanzheng, why did he come back?"
Pang Tong flashed a light in his eyes and said with a smile: "Yan Pu is very worried about the situation in xiegu pass. He once tried to prevent Zhang Wei from sending troops. He should have arranged people to pay attention to Zhang Wei's situation. "
"After learning that Zhang Wei had sent troops, he came back in a hurry."
"It's nothing to say about Micang mountain. The most important thing is xiegu pass. He should have come back in a hurry. "
Pang Tong said, "Yan Pu is a visionary man. Unfortunately, he is with the wrong person."
Zuo CI said, "it's true!"
As soon as the words changed, Zuo CI said, "now that Yanpu has been put into prison, do you want to deal with Yanpu again?"
"No need!"
Pang Tong shook his head and said, "after the news of Yanpu's imprisonment came to Yang Song's ears, he would arrange people to suppress Yanpu's family. Yanpu could only stay in his cell. Such people do not affect the overall situation. Next, let's look at the situation of xiegu pass. "
Zuo CI nodded and said no more.
He has no other task. He just needs to have a good relationship with Zhang Lu and learn from each other. Although Zhang Lu's Taoist knowledge is not as profound as Zuo Ci's, there are many praiseworthy aspects in his doctrine of wudoumi Dao.
Pang Tong didn't stay any longer. He turned to climb up the ladder and went back to his yard to write letters quickly. Then he called to the royal guards all night to send the letters back to them as soon as possible.
The sentry is very fast and must be ahead of Zhang Wei.
After all, Zhang Wei went north, carrying 30000 troops.
Zhang Wei's limit is that 30000 troops are on their way quickly and travel hundreds of miles every day. The sentinel sent the message, but it was far faster than that, so Pang Tong's sentinel arrived at xiegu pass first.
When the sentry leaves xiegu pass, Zhang Wei's army has not arrived.
Now there is no war inside and outside xiegu pass. The only one is the soldiers who came to fight recently. Every day, these soldiers repeatedly scolded Yang Yi, even spilled horse urine, and constantly humiliated Yang Yi.But Yang Yi was not moved.
Such a person, even after Zhang Xiu saw this, was also admired.
Yang Yi is not well-known. No matter how good Yang Yi is at leading the army to fight, Zhang Xiuwei will praise him for his patience alone. It is because Yang Yi's persistence, all people's scolding and provocation have not played any role.
The first news Zhang Xiu received was that Zhang Wei was about to go north and Yan Pu was transferred from Nanzheng. On this news, Zhang Xiu is happy, he arrived at xiegu pass for a period of time, but stopped at xiegu pass. Less than a day later, Zhang Xiu got the news that Pang Tong sent her back, elaborating on Yan Pu's imprisonment.
When Zhang Xiu got the news, she sent someone to call Sima Yi and tell her the latest news.
After hearing this, Sima Yi thought about it and said, "Lord, since Zhang Wei is going north, and Yan Pu has been put into prison. As long as we take Zhang Wei and the army breaks through xiegu pass and enters Hanzhong, it will be very easy to take Zhang Lu. "
"The current situation is to increase the humiliation of Yang Yi. In this way, we can further stimulate the arrival of Zhang Wei. According to the information sent back by Pang Shangshu, Zhang Wei was ready to fight. "
"He just went north in the name of garrison. When he arrived, he would find a reason to fight. And we humiliated Yang Yi, and Yang Yi didn't fight. That's why Zhang Wei sent troops. "
Sima Yi analyzed the current situation.
"That's exactly what it is," said Zhang Xiuyan
As soon as the words changed, Zhang Xiu said: "you arrange to let the soldiers of all the armies go to scold the wartime, humiliate Hanzhong army as much as possible, and humiliate Yang Yi as much as possible."
"Here it is
Sima Yi got the order and bowed to it.
Now, Sima Yi has full confidence in this war. I believe that in a short time, the army will go south. When Sima Yi left the Chinese Army's tent, he made an appointment with Zhao Yun, Zhang Yan and a Guli, arranged Zhang Xiu's orders, and quietly waited for the news of Zhang Wei's arrival.
