Chapter 2329 Each Has Its Own Strategy

Zhang Zhen's report gave Zhang Ze wrong information.

In fact, if Zhang Ze carefully examines it, we can still see some flaws in this report, but people always like to accept some information that they are willing to accept, and subconsciously ignore those things that may cause discomfort. will be ignored.

It's like doing something bad, and then subconsciously comforting yourself that the bad thing is not serious, and you can comfort yourself.

Therefore, Zhang Ze naturally accepted the explanation that Zhang Zhen defeated Wei Yan's attack.

Moreover, Zhang Ze also felt that Wei Yan should have suffered serious damage in this attack. It may not be as exaggerated as Zhang Zhen said, but it must be somewhat?

This inference is very consistent with Zhang Ze's own psychological expectations.

Wei Yan came from Sichuan and Sichuan. After a long journey, he conquered the Nanshan Army Stronghold, and then went to attack the Bei Camp. So now he must be at the end of his battle...

Therefore, he must seize this opportunity and completely annihilate Wei Yan before Wei Yan recovers!

To avoid future troubles!

As long as you kill this little bug that broke in due to your own negligence, on the one hand, you can shock the surrounding area and stabilize the place. On the other hand, you can also remove hidden dangers, allowing you to focus more on border defense, and wait until General Cao Cao's army Once you arrive, everything is settled!

Well, Cao Cao's army and horses should be arriving soon, right?

Zhang Ze frowned, thought for a long time, and finally decided to deploy his soldiers first to eliminate Wei Yan, who was jumping around in Hanzhong and constantly provoking his bottom line...

But the next question is where to deploy soldiers?

The Nanshan military stronghold was rebuilt and could not be moved.

The Peking University Battalion needs support again, so it has to be given. Zhang Ze thought for a while, and then organized the original remnants of the Nanshan military camp and sent a few more to the Beida camp...

The problem of the Beida camp has been solved, but where will the troops be deployed to encircle and suppress Wei Yan?

There are only two choices, one is Nanzheng and the other is Yangpingguan.

Nanzheng is the base camp, everything that belongs to the Zhang family, and the basic layout, so it cannot be acted rashly, resulting in a lack of defensive power. Similarly, Yangping Pass is also the focus of defense. It can be said to be the west gate of Hanzhong. It cannot be changed or deployed at will. Yes, but killing Wei Yan is the focus of Zhang Ze’s current plan...

After thinking about it, Zhang Ze could not let Nanzheng face the risk, but he was also unwilling to give up the defense of Yangping Pass. In the end, he could only form a three-in-one formation with a number of 3,500 people. , and rounded up Wei Yan within Hanzhong. After all, Zhang Zhen of Beidaying could defeat Wei Yan, so there was no reason why the generals he dispatched couldn't defeat him.

Let’s leave aside how Zhang Ze searched for traces of Wei Yan in Hanzhong for the moment, and let’s look back at Zhuge...

In the Sword Pavilion, after two months of intense construction, the Sword Gate began to gradually evolve from the original small military village to a pass. The rammed earth walls of the original fort have been built up in layers, as high as two people. The rammed earth layer is densely packed with round rammed nests. As long as it freezes in winter, it will be as solid as iron stone, and then it will be covered with green walls. Bricks can withstand the test of wind and rain.

Of course, it is not enough to just rely on green bricks. Stones must also be used as the wall, or the cornerstone of Jianmen Pass. Basically, the Jianmen Pass built in this way will be quite majestic. If it is also garrisoned by elite troops, , that is, one man can block it and ten thousand men can't open it!

At this moment, the weather has gradually turned colder.

In the Jianmen Valley, there is a large group of people working hard nearby. There are logs and thick ropes used to drag the rocks up the mountain. Some are repairing rammed earth on the village wall, some are setting up large pots to boil a mixture of glutinous rice juice and mortar, some are caulking and gluing the stone wall base, and some half-year-old children are picking up branches and cutting dead grass all over the mountains and plains. To prepare fuel for these mortar cauldrons...

Of course, there are also many soldiers patrolling various key points.

Zhuge Liang held a map and stood on a high hillside, his eyes wandering between the mountains, as if he was imagining the military camp, and also seemed to be thinking about some other things...

Suddenly, Zhuge Liang saw a group of men and horses appearing in the distance, winding along the mountain road from the direction of the river.

The leading man carried the tricolor flag, and there were some small flags fluttering in the wind behind the soldiers in the queue. It was a typical hussar military brigade.

"Who's coming?" ” Zhuge Liang looked back, his heart moved, and then he motioned to the guards around him.

The guard understood, turned around and went down. Not long after, he hurried back, "It's Fa Zheng Fa Xiao Nao who is here..."

Zhuge Liang nodded and started walking down the hillside.

After a while, Zhuge Liang saw Fa Zheng.

"Takanao has worked hard all the way...but something happened in Kawanaka?" ” Zhuge Liang asked straight to the point after a brief exchange of greetings. Sometimes unnecessary covering up can cause misunderstandings, so it is better to ask directly.

Fazheng nodded slightly and said in a low voice: "The Ti people, the Di people and the Ba people are causing trouble in the middle of Sichuan..."

Zhuge Liang looked stern, "Where is it located?" 』

"Already in Bazhong, I'm afraid it will arrive in Brazil soon." ” said Fazheng.

Zhuge Liang pondered for a moment, "Is there something unexpected in Sichuan?" 』

Fazheng looked at Zhuge Liang and smiled slightly.

"Related to someone?" Zhuge Liang asked.

Fazheng nodded.

Zhuge Liang took a breath.

On top of the wall, Zhuge Liang and Fazheng walked a few steps side by side and stood on the wall. Neither of them spoke for a while. Looking around, the mountains stretch, and countless large and small mountains are visible. There are tall straight walls on both sides, and the mountain wind is whistling in them, hitting the stone walls like a roaring wave hitting the shore, and there is a faint echo and vibration.

The three-color battle flag rolls in the fierce wind.

Hussars soldiers in battle armor were on guard duty up and down the mountain.

Thousands of residents gathered in the village, shouting slogans to move and build.

This scene is a little less graceful and graceful, but a little more strong and vigorous.

The two stood facing the north, facing the wind with their swords pressed, their clothes and scarves lifted by the wind...

After a while, Fazheng slowly narrated what happened in Sichuan and Sichuan during this period.

Before Wei Yan entered Micang Road, some rumors began to spread among Sichuan and Shu. First, it was said that Zhuge Liang was too timid to fight and did not dare to attack. Later, the trend changed to Xu Shu's unclear employment. Then he said that the construction of the sword pavilion was actually Xu Shu's advance preparation to separate Sichuan and Shu...

Xu Shu is going to rebel!

Otherwise, why would Xu Shu entrust Zhuge Liang with important responsibilities even though he was so young?

Is it to allow Hanzhong to change, and then let Zhang Ze of Hanzhong cut off the connection between Guanzhong and Sichuan and Shu like Zhang Lu did back then, and make the Sichuan-Shu separatist a fait accompli?

From this point of view, it is logical to build a sword pavilion. Together with the Jianmen Pass, it can separate the north and the south, making Sichuan and Shu more stable...

In this way, it is very reasonable that Xu Shu and Zhuge Liang both have rebellious intentions.

After the news that Wei Yan was sent to Micang Road by Xu Shu was leaked, some people said that Wei Yan was a loyal minister, and Xu Shu deliberately sent Wei Yan to Micang Road just to let Wei Yan die...

Xu Shu's remarks about wanting to rebel became more and more reasonable.

Zhuge Liang couldn't help but be a little stunned after hearing this.

Even though Zhuge Liang was brilliant and intelligent, he was still a little surprised. He didn't expect that these guys in Sichuan and Sichuan could be so imaginative. But soon, Zhuge Liang frowned and thought deeply, "I'm afraid there are ulterior motives in this matter..." I'm afraid there are lawless people who want to cause chaos in the river..."

Fazheng nodded and said: "Shijun Xu also thinks so..."

"First, rumors were used to sway the hearts of the army and the people, and then there were people who wanted to cause chaos in Brazil..." Zhuge Liang said slowly, speaking slowly but firmly, "If Xu Shijun stays still in the middle of the river, the rumors will It will definitely become more prosperous, and it will also make its intention to rebel... If Xu Shijun sends troops to quell the rebellion, and the Sichuan is empty, there will be a change..."

"When I was in Guanzhong, Qiao Qi once said that the chaos in the Han Dynasty was not caused by the common people, but by the degradation of the gentry. Now it seems...this theory cannot be escaped in Sichuan and Shu!" 』

Fa Zheng put his hand on the wall of the village and stood there for a while before saying: "Sichuan and Sichuan have their own hussars, the people's livelihood is prosperous, and goods are abundant. There are few refugees outside the city walls begging for their lives, and there are no deserted villages in the countryside..." This person is a hundred times better than the Liu family. Even if the history is stained in the future, he should still remember... The Hussar can achieve such a great cause, which is definitely not comparable to the mediocre people in Sichuan and Sichuan! 』

In the cold mountain wind, Zhuge Liang stood upright. After hearing what Fazheng said, he nodded slightly, and then sighed again, "But in Sichuan, there are very few people who are as filial and upright as brothers!" If you want fame and wealth, you can find them on the battlefield or between swords and guns. If you are too weak to fight, you can also make a living by writing and ink to nourish the people... People who are like flies and dogs, people who are greedy for pleasure, show shame and That's what we do together... Now that Xiaozhi is here, Commander Xu must also have a plan..."

Fazheng turned to look at Zhuge Liang and said, "Kong Ming is so smart, how could he not know?" 』

Zhuge Liang pondered for a moment, then reached out and patted the wall of Jiange.

Fazheng also nodded, and the two of them laughed together...

……ヾ(^▽^ヾ)……

Sichuan, Shu, Guanghan.

Guanghan got its name from its "Guang as far as the Han River".

Guanghan was even an important cultural center in early Sichuan and Shu, but it was later transferred to Chengdu.

According to legend, Guanghan is the ancient kingdom of Shu that existed before the Spring and Autumn Period in the era of King Zhou, the kingdom of the "Yu Fu Clan" or "Du Yu Clan", and Du Yu also participated in King Wu's war against Zhou. At that time, it was already known as "Shu", and the ancient Shu army was also the most effective team in the coalition forces to defeat Zhou, and was an important force in overthrowing King Zhou of the Yin and Shang Dynasties.

But what is very interesting is that after participating in the great cause of overthrowing King Zhou, Du Yu retreated to Xishan and lived in seclusion until his death. It is also said that Du Yu turned into a cuckoo after his death. During the spring plowing season every year, the cuckoo sang. When the ancient Shu people heard this, they said, "I am looking forward to the emperor's soul"...

King Wu of Zhou, who is regarded as an ancient idol in the youth books of history, has a great reputation in the world of etiquette, and is the king of Liangbi. After he has secured his position, he provides important combat power to Du Yu of ancient Shu during the crusade against King Zhou. , what kind of attitude and measures did Du Yu finally live in seclusion and die in grief and anger?

Of course, another way of saying it is that Du Yu contracted battlefield syndrome on the battlefield, and then he couldn't adapt after the war. In order not to hurt his relatives and friends, he decided to bravely and fearlessly start living alone, and then lived in seclusion for a long time. He started to be anti-human and anti-society. He resented the conqueror and resented the King of Zhou. Even after his death, he turned into a cuckoo and complained about injustice...

As for what the truth of history was at that time, no one knows now.

If Du Yu knew at that time that he would eventually die in seclusion, would he still go to the battlefield?

Can't say.

Because there are always people who feel that they have control over everything and can avoid disasters and gain rights...

For example, Li Miao.

Li Miao sat in the hall and said with some urgency: "Is Commander Xu really preparing to send troops to quell the rebellion?" 』

"Exactly, it is said that soldiers are already gathering, and they will march into Brazil in the near future to suppress the rebellion between Ti and Di..."

Li Miao nodded, then waved his servants to leave. Then he frowned and thought for a moment, then he laughed and said, "Here comes someone!" Go and invite...forget it, let's go somewhere and prepare a car! 』

Not long after, Li Miao arrived at Li Chao's home, and the two parties sat down.

"Xu Yuanzhi wants to send troops to Brazil. Has your brother heard about this?" Li Miao said straight to the point.

Li Chao nodded and said, "I heard a little bit." 』

Li Miao laughed, his eyebrows couldn't help but lift up, "Here's the opportunity!" 』

Li Chao frowned slightly and said, "This matter..."

Li Miao waved his hand, not even willing to let Li Chao interrupt him, and continued, "Needless to say, the north will be difficult to pacify for a while... The cavalry of Yongbin is the cavalry of Yongbin!" Nowadays, the Hussar Hexi is unstable and the Qiang people are in chaos. Even if it does not take ten years, it will take at least five years to calm down. During this period, the only source of horses for the Hussar is Bingzhou. In this way, it is necessary to pacify Yong and resist. In the Northern Desert, we have to take care of Heluo, Shandong and Hanzhong. How can we spare the time to take care of Sichuan and Shu? 』

"To the south, Liu, Guan, and Zhang went south to fight in Jiaozhi. They were separated by thousands of mountains and rivers. If they knew that there were changes in Sichuan and Shu, what would they do even if they wanted to return? This is what is said to be beyond the reach of the whip. 』

"To the west, the Zhe people have been defeated and their power is small. Even if there are some remnants in the mountains and forests who want to return to Sichuan and Shu, it may take at least ten years or more than several decades, so there is nothing to worry about..."

"To the east... Haha, these people are all short-sighted. Even if they don't use soldiers, they can easily be driven away... Hahaha, hahahaha... This is a unique opportunity!" 』

Li Miao waved his arms and said impassionedly, "The land of Sichuan and Shu should be ruled by the people of Sichuan and Shu!" 』

Li Chao frowned and remained silent. What he originally wanted to say didn't seem to make much sense now.

The people of Sichuan rule Sichuan. This is not just Li Miao's idea. It can even be said that it has been in existence since very early times. However, at that time, Sichuan and Shu basically did not have much power and did not have the conditions. But now... …

The entire Han Dynasty was torn apart, and the original concept of unified imperial power was wavering and overturning. Coupled with Liu Yan's actions, it undoubtedly opened a door for these guys in Sichuan and Shu. It turns out that they are so close to Sichuan and Shu autonomy!

Of course, in a certain sense, the so-called "autonomy" mostly follows interests...

If you think about it with the onychomycosis on your toes, you will know that this so-called "autonomy", let alone other things, will just talk about one thing. The original taxes in Sichuan and Sichuan do not need to be paid because of autonomy, and then they can be classified as "autonomy" "In the hands of this leader, even if it is necessary to share some of the profits to balance the others, what remains in the hands is still the big head. As long as it is autonomous for two or three years, the family's take-off will not be a dream!

Not to mention other benefits, if the Li family can really "represent" the Sichuan and Shu gentry and carry out so-called "autonomy", it will only take three to five years. The Li family's power can be expanded not only by controlling Guanghan County, but also by expansion. Go to most of Sichuan and Shu!

Historically, after Liu Bei marched into Sichuan and Shu, the local faction, the Yuan Cong faction, and the Jingxiang faction also continued to have disputes in Sichuan and Shu, and the local faction was basically suppressed. The Jingxiang faction and the Yuan Cong faction joined forces. , suppressed the local faction to death. It was not until the death of Guan Yu and the collapse of the Yuancong faction that the local faction gradually began to rise, reaching its peak before Liu Chan surrendered, and even led to the final destruction of Han and Shu.

Just like during the Battle of Chibi, the Soochow native faction did not want to fight. When the Wei army came to the city, the Sichuan and Shu native faction did not want to fight. They just did it casually and easily, without even a symbolic struggle. Surrender.

Of course, the problem of this local faction was not only with Wu, but also with Shu, and also with Wei. It still existed during the Jin Dynasty. When Jin finally destroyed Wu, they came out to stop it again and again, unwilling to attack Wu. , because those guys who came out of the Nine-Rank Zhongzheng System do not want to see the birth of new rich people, and they no longer need any military merit to improve their own class. They leave Soochow to give their children the opportunity to get foreign diplomas and study abroad from time to time. Wouldn't it be nice to plate it with gold?

So the Western Jin Dynasty dragged on its attack on Soochow for seventeen years, and then when Sima Yan couldn't help but get really ruthless, it only took three or four months from sending troops to conquering Jianye...

Therefore, it can be said that throughout the history of the Han Dynasty, this problem of localism has been of the same origin. It exists everywhere regardless of north, south and east. In fact, it is also because of the shortcomings of the political system of the Han Dynasty for three to four hundred years.

Or to put it simply, it is summed up by a later word, "refined egoism".

At the same time, Li Miao and Li Chao still had different attitudes towards the same matter. Li Miao was obviously more radical, while Li Chao was relatively stable.

This is not to say that Li Chao is so smart and Li Miao is so stupid, but because Li Miao himself is not as well-known as Li Chao, so Li Miao needs to win other people's ideas more, and Li Chao's family background is greater than that of Li Miao. What's more, at the beginning of his youth, he also gained a relatively good reputation through his family status, so Li Chao was relatively conservative when it came to adventurous matters.

The reason for being barefoot is because I have no shoes to wear.

Those who don’t have shoes don’t walk in a hurry because it’s the bare feet that hurt.

Therefore, even though Li Chao heard Li Miao's heroic words, he still remained silent.

Li Miao looked at Li Chao and guessed what Li Chao was thinking about, so he smiled and said, "Brother, do you still have concerns?" 』

Li Chao frowned and said, "What if..."

"Xu Yuan went straight out of Chengdu. There are people like me in the big city...either pretending to be Zhe people, or attracting Ba people, or simply...hehehe, if my brother still feels that it is not safe, he can also borrow someone else's sword... 』

"Borrow a knife?" Li Chao pondered for a moment, "But I don't know where this sword is?" 』

"This knife..." Li Miao said with a smile, "It's ready-made..."
