Zhuge Liang wandered around the place with a few steps in his mind, stamped his feet, and left by himself.
Lei Yuan stood behind Zhao Yun and breathed a sigh of relief.
He and Zhao Yun had not been together for a long time. When Lei Yuan went to Jiangzhou, the two of them were both in a military and undertook heavy military affairs, so they only met in the military discussion and went their separate ways. At this moment, it was finally time when the overall situation was decided, and both the father-in-law and son-in-law had a lot to talk about.
But just now, the two of them stood at the scene of Zhuge Liang and Pang Tong's confrontation, and they could only discuss the weather in Chengdu like a wheel. Haha, I have already talked about it for the third time.
These two military advisors and generals were both the best among the scholars of Jingzhou. They were the ones with the most powerful civil and military subordinates of Duke Xuande, and they were the home of the Left General's Mansion. Although Zhuge Liang was called "like a fish in water" by Duke Xuande, Pang Tong was second only to Zhuge Liang. Most of the steps of the Jingzhou army entering Shu were planned by Pang Tong.
Who would have thought that the two of them would make such a fuss at the main entrance of the Yizhou Mu Mansion?
Zhao Yun took the lead in reacting, and he waved to summon several guard leaders: "What the two military advisors have just discussed are the major policies of General Zuo's Mansion. I tell you that everything you see and hear is strictly prohibited."
The halberd and armored soldiers present were all loyal guards who had followed Duke Xuande for many years, but they were a little too much and would not be in this position for a long time. However, Zhao Yun still gave orders deliberately, without neglecting them at all.
Lei Yuan also ordered his entourages in this way.
The two had already agreed that Lei Yuan would go to the museum to gather his troops first and stay at Zhao Yun's house in the evening. Lei Yuan said goodbye.
Zhao Yun sent his own troops to lead the way for Lei Yuan.
When Lei Yuan attacked the Eastern Wu army near Gong'an City at night, Wang Hu led the cavalry team to encircle the Wu army camp for assistance, causing disturbances and made great contributions. It was Lei Yuan's old acquaintance.
Wang Hu led Lei Yuan and others to walk around the side of the Yizhou Mu Mansion to the museum, and pointed it to Lei Yuan along the way. It turned out that Zhao Yun's residence was in the northwest corner of the residence. There happened to be a tall building in the courtyard that could be used as a commanding height for the crossbowman to control the city; and Chen Dao's residence was in the southeast corner, next to a Huze, which could serve as the source of drinking water for the Zhoumu Mansion.
It seems that Chengdu city is not stable, and these two Duke Xuande’s personal guards and generals had to lead troops and attendants at any time to prevent accidents.
The group arrived at the museum and followed the other entourages and immediately returned to Zhao Yun's residence.
When I saw closer, the mansion had indeed been converted into a barracks by Zhao Yun. Trenches were dug along the courtyard wall, and soldiers patrolled along the trenches. In addition to the original high-rise buildings, there were also sentry towers at four corners of the courtyard, and soldiers looked out on the sentry towers.
Seeing Lei Yuan and others coming from afar, the soldiers on the tower whistled as if they were facing a great enemy, and then a crossbowman came up on the wall to explore. Wang Hu waved his hand repeatedly: "It's me! It's me! I'm here with General Xuzhi!"
He was the White Ma Yichen of Gongsun Zan, and he was one of the best veterans in Zhao Yun's army. When he heard him shouting, someone on the wall immediately greeted him with a smile, and said, "It turns out that it's the son-in-law who has arrived."
The soldiers in the courtyard quickly opened the door and welcomed Lei Yuan and others into the group.
Lei Yuan couldn't help asking: "The city seems to be stable, why are you so... so vigilant?"
Wang Hu sucked his teeth and said, "General Xuzhi, don't you know. Chengdu is so big that all tens of thousands of troops in our army can't control every corner, let alone leave people to guard outside the city. Looking at the situation in this big city now, it is the result of trying hard to suppress the past few days. The city was full of refugees two days ago, and several riots were caused in a short period of time, and even riots attacked the treasury and the official office. Military advisor Pang spent a lot of energy on this...killed a lot of people..."
Lei Yuan nodded slightly, no wonder Pang Tong's expression was so fierce just now. Obviously, in the past few days, he had made ruthless measures to control the situation in Chengdu. The reason why he detained all the powerful families in the city was probably not only for future governance considerations, but also for maintaining the current order.
Wang Hu continued: "...My general dared not relax at all. General Xuzhi, you have just come out of the provincial governor's mansion. In that place, in the mansion, we have placed a thousand fully armed soldiers next to the lord."
OK, just now, only with a sound of minus, Xuande Gong could really call out hundreds of swords and axes.
"Since that's the case, wouldn't the lord stay in the military camp outside the city temporarily?" Lei Yuan asked.
Without waiting for Wang Hu to answer, he waved his hand again. If this were not the case, it would not be enough to show the reality of defeating Yizhou and the determination to control Chengdu. If Liu Bei hesitated and dared not enter the city, he would be afraid that hundreds of thousands of people in this huge city might even have something to happen.
After a few words, the group passed through the heavily guarded gate, walked around the screen wall, passed through the hall, and entered the second gate. The houses in the second gate courtyard were tall and magnificent, and Lin Musen, maintaining the original specifications. Zhao Yun vacated the entire cross-yard to the west in advance to provide Lei Yuan and others with their residence.
The courtyard is very open, surrounded by trees, the room is covered with bedding and bedding, and there are special stables and other facilities in the outside. Lei Yuan and others chose the house, washed it, and lie down to rest.
When he woke up, it was already dark. The autumn wind blew the branches and leaves, rolled up the leaves and rose and fell in the yard. Lei Yuan packed up his clothes a little, got up and went out, and when he stood under the eaves, he was about to meet Wang Hu and bring a team of people to get lights, candles and torches. Under the beating flames, another servant brought food.
Wang Hu said: "General Xuzhi, my general has returned. Please invite the main hall to meet you."
"good."
When we arrived at the main hall, the dusk became darker. Fortunately, there were many lights and candles in the hall, so it did not appear dim.
Zhao Yunju sat in the center and saw Lei Yuan's familiar sword hanging around his waist from afar. He couldn't help but chuckled a few times.
He reached out to Lei Yuan and signaled: "Su Zhi, please sit down."
When Lei Yuan sat down, Zhao Yun said again: "Su Zhi, please see, some things were given to you by the lord today, so I specially asked me to bring them."
Only then did Lei Yuan notice that against a wall, there were dozens of large boxes placed there. The boxes were the same size, each of which was more than two feet wide and three feet long, and the height was as high as the waist. Lei Yuan knocked on the lid and made a thud sound, which was made of very hard wood.
He looked back at Zhao Yun.
Zhao Yun signaled him to open the box.
Lei Yuan chose the first box on the right. The lid was heavy and he couldn't lift it with one hand. He pushed it away with both hands, and instantly there was a stream of light in front of him.
Lei Yuan was surprised and looked at it again. The things in the box and the lights in the hall were more dazzling.
"This... are all gold and silver treasures?" Lei Yuan swallowed. The value of this box of golden beads is amazing!
