"This is a tactic used by thieves to lure enemies.

They deliberately provoked us and wanted to force us out of seclusion and fight with them.

Then, they took the opportunity to seize my Jiameng Pass.

These soldiers and horses are only part of them.

There must be many soldiers and horses behind, ambushing there, waiting for us to leave the customs!

As soon as we leave the border, the soldiers and horses in front of us, who seem to be going to hunt down Zhang Lu, will definitely turn around and attack us.

The troops and horses ambushed by the opponent will also take the opportunity to rush out!

Zhang Lu and the soldiers and horses under Zhang Lu were already frightened and did not dare to come and fight...

A little impatience will ruin a big plan!"

After Jiameng closed the door, Yan Yan said this to Zhang Ren and other generals with such earnest words.

Then he issued a strict order not to allow his generals to leave the customs.

Yan Yan is a relatively senior person and has a high prestige in Xichuan's army.

Moreover, the document Liu Yan had written before that strictly prohibited going out to fight was here, and for a while, it suppressed these generals under his command.

…

"Lieutenant, is it really true that you have been strictly guarding Jiameng Pass and allowed Liu Cheng's troops to show off their power?"

At night, someone came to Yan Yan's handsome tent and said this to Yan Yan.

This person is none other than Sima Zhangren of another department.

"Liu Cheng is a powerful traitor and has won so many battles.

Now he led his troops and captured the entire territory of Hanzhong.

When the soldiers and horses under my command are full of ambition and morale, how can they fight against them at this time?"

Yan Yan raised her head, looked at Zhang Ren, and said.

Zhang Rendao: "The captain thinks when is the time to lead his troops out to attack Liu Cheng's traitors?

Could it be that the captain is also thinking of relying on this strong pass to block Liu Cheng and Liu Kede?"

Hearing this, Yan Yan was speechless for a moment.

He raised his hand to signal Zhang Ren to continue.

Zhang Ren was not polite when he saw this.

"If it were in the past, relying on this method to deal with Liu Cheng and Liu Kede, there would be nothing to say. Food and grass were one of its major limitations.

But now, it doesn't work.

Liu Cheng, the traitor, has conquered all the land in Hanzhong and obtained a lot of food.

Moreover, Zhang Lu also said today in front of Jiameng Pass that Liu Cheng and Liu Kede used some method to obtain a large number of strange objects with only one wheel.

That thing can carry a lot of food and grass.

No animal power is needed, animals can push it, people can push it.

Moreover, it is also very compact and convenient. It can walk on the Shu road and transport grain and grass very conveniently.

With the food and grass gained from conquering Hanzhong, and this kind of tools, food and grass, Liu Ked can no longer be restrained..."

Yan Yan sighed and said, "That Zhang Biebu, what do you think about this?"

Zhang Rendao: "My subordinates are willing to lead some troops out of the border and wait for the opportunity to do something against the enemy."

Yan Yan said: "You have to think about this matter carefully!

Once you take this step, there is no turning back!

You can only succeed, not fail!

If you succeed, you will naturally gain supreme glory, let Liu Yizhou remember your goodness, and promote you and make you rich.

But once you fail, you will be punished for several crimes!

Survival is impossible, and even the young family will be implicated.

Moreover, in order to protect Jiameng Pass, in critical situations, even if you are chased to Jiameng Pass and I kill you in front of me, I will not open the door for you and let you in...

…”

Zhang Ren nodded solemnly and said: "You are the commander-in-chief of Jiameng Pass, and it is your duty to defend Jiameng Pass.

Doing this is the most correct choice.”

After saying that, he hesitated and said: "Really, we really have a disagreement. Please also ask the principal to take care of our children..."

Hearing this, Yan Yan nodded: "I will do my best.

If something like this really happens, no matter what, I will try my best.

We can’t watch you fight for Xichuan and then let your children be implicated and lose their lives.”

Upon hearing this, Zhang Ren saluted Yan Yan solemnly and said, "With the words of the captain, the general will feel relieved!"

That night, Zhang Ren did not return to his tent and stayed directly at Yan Yan's place.

The two discussed the matter for a long time.

It was not until dawn that Zhang Ren, who had not slept all night and had bloodshot eyes, left Yan Yan.

Yan Yan came out of the tent, stood here and watched Zhang Ren leave, and couldn't help but let out a long sigh.

Zhang Ren can be said to be the best among the younger generation in Xichuan.

I hope he can succeed this time!

As long as you can survive this time, your achievements and future in the future will be immeasurable.

If you can't survive it, you will have nothing but a wasted death...

Hopefully he can get through it...

After Zhang Ren left Yan Yan's camp, he returned to his residence.

I didn't rush to do anything. I just lay there and had a good sleep.

He slept until noon, and after waking up, he began to summon his generals and came to his camp to discuss matters...

At this time, Liao Hua, who was being chased by the troops from behind, took a bite, and Zhang Lu lost a lot of soldiers and horses, and once again had a "lucky escape."

And led less than three thousand defeated troops all the way to Jianmen Pass.

He asked Li Yan of Jianmen Pass to enter Jianmen Pass.

Li Yan himself agreed very much with Liu Yan's strategy of sticking to the sword gate and not being able to get out.

How could Zhang Lu be let in at this time?

Not only that, but he also stood with the sword gate closed, standing on the commanding heights of justice and morality, and reprimanded Zhang Lu.

But at this time, Liao Hua, who was leading his troops and horses like maggots on the tarsus, who could not be shaken off, once again led his troops and horses to pursue him from behind.

Blocked by the Jianmen Gate in front, and the pursuers coming from behind who could not defeat him, Zhang Lu felt that his whole body was in despair.

In despair, I remembered what my father once said, twenty years from now, an emperor named Liu will come to Yizhou, and he asked me and others to follow him properly. My whole heart was full of bitterness.

I have the urge to scream to the sky and vent my anger.

Emperor surnamed Liu!

Emperor surnamed Liu!

Can such an incompetent person as Liu Yan really become the emperor, can he really become the supreme?

Even Uncle Liu Huang couldn't beat him...

Zhang Lu was filled with sadness.

I was really hurt by my father's words to stay!

Just as he was thinking this, Zhang Lu suddenly had an idea in his heart!

The emperor surnamed Liu entered Yizhou!

The emperor surnamed Liu entered Yizhou!

Liu Yan’s surname is Liu!

The newly rising Liu Cheng and Liu Kede also have the surname Liu!

Could it be that the emperor named Liu whom my father mentioned was not Liu Yan, the pastor of Yizhou who entered Yizhou last year, but Liu Cheng and Emperor Liu who led the army to attack Yizhou this year?!

Compare again what Liu Huangshu and Liu Yan have done since Liu Huangshu led his troops to attack Yizhou.

Zhang Lu felt even more that what he was thinking was correct!

As for why Liu Yan was a member of the Han clan who led troops into Yizhou in the 20th year as his father said, Emperor Liu was in the 21st year.

At this time, Zhang Lu also thought of the reason.
