"In this case, we can only sacrifice Zi Qiao alone." Zhang Su muttered.
Liu Zhang was very surprised by the news that Zhang Su asked to see him. Zhang Su was the prefect of Guanghan and could not easily return to the city. Although he was puzzled, he summoned Zhang Su.
After Zhang Su saw Liu Zhang, he knelt to the ground and said with tears: "The Zhang family is unfortunate, but it is the rebels like Zhang Song who have come out. I also hope that the lord will forgive the Zhang family for the hard work of the Zhang family for so many years. ."
Liu Zhang said, "Presumably Jun Jiao is because of the recent rumors in the city?"
"Please forgive me!" Zhang Su did not get up.
Liu Zhang felt that something was wrong, and said in surprise: "What happened? Jun Jiao got up and talked." From Zhang Su's performance, he felt extraordinary. Although he had doubts about Zhang Song before, Liu Bei chose to go from Fu after all. It is said that the troops have been cleaned up and ready to go. Naturally, there is no doubt about Zhang Song.
Zhang Su said, "After asking the lord for forgiveness, the subordinates dared to get up."
"Okay, Benhou forgive Zhang's innocence." Liu Zhang said lightly.
Zhang Su then got up and said: "After his subordinates returned to the city from Guanghan, it happened that Zhang Song, a rebel from the Zhang family, was planning to secretly dedicate Yizhou to Liu Bei and persuaded Liu Bei not to withdraw his troops."
"Even so?" Liu Zhang was shocked.
"This is a letter written by Zhang Song's rebel in Liu Bei." Zhang Su wiped his tears and took out the letter from his sleeve.
After Liu Zhang finished reading it, his expression suddenly became gloomy. It seems that the previous rumors in the city are inseparable. Zhang Song actually has a secret connection with Liu Bei. He has trusted Zhang Song before, and rumors are all over the city. , He still did not move Zhang Song.
"Okay, Ben Hou has already known about this. If you come, go to Zhang's house immediately and capture Zhang Song." Liu Zhang said angrily.
Then Liu Zhang turned his attention to Zhang Su and said: "Jun Jiao is loyal to Ben Hou, and Ben Hou will definitely not be involved in Zhang's family because of Zhang Song's affairs. Now that Yizhou is unstable, Jun Jiao will stay in the city for the time being."
"Here." Zhang Su handed his hands. Although he understood that Liu Zhang didn't trust him, he was lucky to be able to preserve Zhang's family at this point.
After Zhang Su left, Liu Zhang muttered with a deep complexion: "Little Liu Bei, you really dare to plan the land of Yizhou. It is ridiculous that Benhou has such trust in you."
Zhang Song’s imprisonment caused a lot of turmoil in the city. Although the previous news about Zhang Song’s secret connection with Liu Bei was very powerful, the top leaders of Yizhou really didn’t believe in much. Yizhou has a high status.
Fazheng learned that Zhang Song had been imprisoned, and hurriedly fled from the city. Once Zhang Song involved him, he would not be spared, and when the matter of how Zhang Song was exposed was passed to Fazheng’s ears, it was even more difficult for him to escape. It is to let the Fa be regretted.
Zhang Song has a high prestige in the city. In order to welcome Liu Bei to enter Yizhou, he secretly made a lot of arrangements. Unexpectedly, care will be chaotic. He even prepared to write a letter to advise Liu Bei. With Zhang Song’s resourcefulness, just think carefully. It can be seen that such a plan was made. The reason why Fazheng did not intend to disclose the news to Zhang Song was because he believed that Zhang Song could understand the key points, but Zhang Song was blinded by anxiety for a while.
Regarding Zhang Su’s actions, Fazheng was even more speechless. In order to preserve the Zhang family, Zhang Song was pushed out. This way, the Zhang family can be preserved, but will Liu Zhang still have the same trust in the Zhang family as before? Even after Liu Bei entered Yizhou, the Zhang family would not get too much benefit. This is obvious, but Zhang family has two people like this.
It is said that among the Zhang family, one is Yizhou Don't Drive, and the other is Guanghan Prefect. If the two join forces, letting Liu Bei take charge of Yizhou must be a sure thing.
Let’s say that when Yang Huai and Gao Pei learned that Liu Bei was really going to leave, they breathed a sigh of relief, but they were ready to go to see them off. After all, Liu Bei was here to help Yizhou. Wouldn't it be a joke for others to go out? With the five thousand army of Yizhou outside the city, there is naturally no big problem in terms of safety.
Besides, Liu Bei is in control of the building methods of the Thunderbolt and the bed crossbow. If he can get it, it will be a great help for Yizhou. Yizhou has many dangerous levels. However, when these levels lose their advantages, they are right. You can imagine what kind of blows the Yizhou Army will cause.
After the Jingzhou army had finished packing up, they were about to leave. Liu Bei was secretly overjoyed when he learned that Yang Huai and Gao Pei had already led the soldiers out of the city to send them off.
Yang Huai and Gao Pei were the key to capturing Fucheng. If they had no foothold in Yizhou, it would be extremely difficult to compete with Liu Zhang. After Yang Huai and Gao Pei died, things would be much simpler.
"Lord, you can invite Yang Huai and Gao Pei to a banquet in the tent. He will definitely not refuse, and secretly ambush the sword and axe on the left and right." Xu Shu whispered.
Liu Bei nodded and ordered: "Yide, later you will lead fifty soldiers around the camp. After hearing the order, UU Reading rushed into the tent and beheaded the two."
"Here." Zhang Fei clasped his fist and his expression was full of excitement. This is a crucial step in the capture of Yizhou. After following Liu Bei for many years, he naturally hopes that Liu Bei's power can grow even more, but if he stays in Jingzhou, he will help others sooner or later. As for Yang Huai as a famous general in Yizhou, Zhang Fei didn't take it seriously. With his martial arts, he killed the defenseless Yang Huai and Gao Pei.
When Yang Huai and Gao Pei saw Liu Bei personally greet them outside the camp, a hint of surprise flashed in their expressions. Liu Bei's status at this time was even higher than Liu Zhang's.
Yang Huai hurriedly turned over and dismounted, secretly showing respect for Liu Bei's expressions.
"The humble post paid a visit to the general. Because of the busy affairs in the army, I had never visited the army. Now I learned that the general is going to lead the troops away because of Jingzhou. It is the reason to come to see him off." Yang Huai said with a fist.
Liu Bei stepped forward and lifted Yang Huai up and said, "This general was forced to leave because of Jingzhou. Moreover, Yizhou has such fierce generals as General Yang. Naturally, the soldiers and horses resisting Chang'an are naturally not a problem. This general stays in Yizhou. It’s a waste of money and food, and it’s better to return to Jingzhou as soon as possible.”
Seeing Liu Bei's sincere tone, Yang Huai said: "The general is high-righteous, admired by his humble duty."
"The general has already prepared a thin wine in the account and drank with the general." Liu Bei smiled.
Yang Huai looked at Liu Bei carefully for a moment, and there was no other abnormality before he clasped his fist and said, "The general is invited, and I will go to the humble position."
Seeing the tight defense outside the camp, Yang Huai's expression became a little wary.
"General Yang, Jin Hou's methods are extraordinary. When the princes attacked Bingzhou, many generals in the army were secretly assassinated. For a time, the generals were panicked. This general was also a last resort." Liu Beidao.
