Isn't the reaction of Xun You and the others too abnormal?
Even if Han Sui died and Ma Teng surrendered, it would not be so easy to pacify the two states of Yongliang.
Even if Yongliang is pacified, given the current level of dilapidation of Guanzhong, can it be restored to vitality within two or three years of governance?
"that..."
Just as Liu Zhang was about to ask a question, he saw Pang Tong move in front of him and block the messenger behind him.
"My lord, the two states of Yongliang and Liang are about to be pacified, and Guanzhong can also be completely surrendered. Isn't it worth celebrating?"
Seeing Pang Tong's somewhat thoughtful gaze, Liu Zhang did not oppose them anymore.
However, due to doubts in my heart, my performance was still relatively unnatural.
"That...right...is...worth...worthy..."
Liu Zhang was filled with doubts.
First it was Liu Ye, then Pang Tong and Xun You!
Unexpectedly, as soon as Pang Tong finished speaking, Xun You also raised his hand and looked at Liu Zhang.
"Lord, our army has successively captured two counties, and now there is no threat. I suggest that we hold a banquet for the three armies today to praise the achievements of our soldiers!"
Even Xun You said this, and Liu Zhang could only nod and agree.
"Okay, since everything will be arranged by the military advisor!"
Xun You acted very quickly and immediately summoned the mighty general Zhao Yun.
"What are the military advisor's orders?"
Xun You glanced at the messenger first, and then set his sights on Zhao Yun.
"General Zhao, please inform the entire army to enter the city. The Lord is hosting a banquet for the three armies today. The soldiers can drink as much as they want!"
Zhao Yun looked puzzled. In his memory, he had never celebrated like this before the battle was over.
"Military advisor, the enemy's situation is unknown now, and all the soldiers are drunk. Isn't it a little too..."
"No problem!"
Xun You immediately interrupted Zhao Yun and assured him by patting his chest.
"Don't worry, General Zilong. As long as we are in Didao City, we will naturally be able to obtain Han Sui's head!"
Zhao Yun frowned. If he hadn't known Xun You's abilities, he would have thought Xun You was crazy!
Even so, Zhao Yun still looked at Liu Zhang doubtfully. After all, such a big matter must be approved by Liu Zhang.
"Zilong, the military advisor's orders are my orders!"
After Liu Zhang said this, Zhao Yun immediately had no objection and immediately accepted the order.
"The general will obey your orders!"
Under the command of Zhao Yun, the army began to enter Didao City in an orderly manner.
Watching the troops under his command continue to enter the city, Liu Zhang always felt that something was not right, but he could not figure out where it was.
Liu Zhang wanted to discuss it with his military advisers, but the three military advisers all swore that Yongliang was settled, which made Liu Zhang even more confused.
"Messenger, our lord rewards the three armies tonight, why don't you stay and get drunk before resting?"
Hearing Pang Tong's words, Liu Zhang remembered that Ma Teng's messenger was still nearby.
The messenger suddenly looked flattered and quickly bowed to Pang Tong to thank him.
"Thank you, sir, thank you, sir! It's just that I've been delayed for too long. Now I have to go back to my lord, so I won't bother you any more!"
Liu Zhang couldn't help but sigh in his heart, it's really strange today, even a little messenger is so measured!
"What's your name? After your lord returns, I will definitely promote you!"
The messenger once again expressed his gratitude to Liu Zhang and bowed repeatedly to thank him.
"Reporting to General Wei, my name is Meng Da!"
"What!"
"Your name..."
Liu Zhang was stunned. Just as he was about to ask again, he was immediately overshadowed by Pang Tong's louder voice.
"Lord!"
"Lord, it's getting late, so we should go to the city and rest as soon as possible! The messenger has to go on his way, so let's not embarrass him."
Liu Zhang's words were already on his lips. If Pang Tong hadn't interrupted him, he would have spoken out.
It turned out to be Meng Da!
Is this Meng Da the historical Meng Da?
But now Xun You, Liu Ye, and Pang Tong are all acting strangely, and they all seem to be creating an atmosphere of victory!
"General Wei, is there anything else? If not, I'll take my leave!"
Meng Da frowned slightly and looked at Liu Zhang with confusion.
"Ah...ok! Take care..."
Liu Zhang nodded quickly, and then watched Meng Da move away until he disappeared from sight.
Now that there were finally no outsiders, Liu Zhang immediately looked at Xun You and the others.
"What is going on? What were you talking about just now?"
Unexpectedly, Xun You and Pang Tong also looked puzzled, and they looked at Liu Ye.
"Zi Yang, what's going on!"
"Lord, let's go to the city first. Aren't the soldiers still waiting to celebrate?"
Liu Ye did not answer anyone's questions, but urged Liu Zhang to enter the city first.
"This...do we really want to reward the three armies?"
Liu Zhang originally thought that he was just talking, or that he was telling Ma Teng's messenger. From what Liu Ye meant, it seemed that it was not a false shot!
"Of course! As a general of the Guard, my lord naturally has to keep his word! What he says is like water being thrown out. How can you break your promise?"
It seemed that Liu Ye had no intention of expressing his thoughts for the time being. Liu Zhang could only look at Xun You and Pang Tong, hoping to get some information from their mouths.
It's a pity that Xun You and Pang Tong seemed to be kept in the dark, and they are still thinking with furrowed brows.
"Then let's go to the city first!"
Now that all the soldiers have entered Didao City, Liu Zhang cannot stay outside the city forever. What's more, Liu Ye keeps shouting that he wants to reward the three armies.
"Let's go! Lord, please!"
Liu Zhang had no doubts about entering Didao City.
What Dido showed Liu Zhang was an empty city. If there were people hiding inside, they would be discovered immediately when the army entered the city.
At this moment, more than 60,000 troops have entered the city. If there is a problem, it will definitely not be as peaceful as it is now.
Liu Zhang had just stepped into the city when he happened to see Zhao Yun riding out of the city.
"Zilong, what's going on?"
Zhao Yun shook his head, looking very calm.
"To inform my lord, nothing is out of the ordinary in the city, and no one has been found. The general has come to invite my lord to rest in the city."
Zhao Yun was very cautious in doing things, and even he felt that there was no problem, so there would be no worries in Didao City, and Liu Zhang could boldly enter the city to rest.
"Okay! Let's go and have a look at the prefect's mansion first."
Zhao Yun followed Liu Zhang's soldiers and horses. Not far away, he couldn't help but ask Liu Zhang a question.
"My lord, are you really letting the soldiers drink freely tonight? Are you being too lax?"
Zhao Yun's voice was very low and close to Liu Zhang's ear, obviously worried that the three military advisors behind him would hear it.
In fact, Liu Zhang didn't want to reward the three armies at all. In his opinion, where was this?
The horoscope has not yet been written, so there is really nothing to celebrate.
However, thinking of the persistence of Xun You and the others, Liu Zhang still nodded helplessly.
"Since the military advisor said it, just do it..."
"The general will obey your orders!"
Zhao Yun is obviously this kind of person. He has asked Liu Zhang twice, and Liu Zhang has answered him twice. Now he has no doubts in his mind.
"Hey, what does this smell like?"
Liu Zhang couldn't help but wonder. Ever since he entered the city, there had been a faint smell surging at the tip of his nose.
I thought it was an isolated phenomenon, but the further I walked in, the smell never dissipated, as if it had been following him.
