The long queue left Que Village and headed towards Shenyuan Pass.
Sure enough, we didn't meet any Xiliang Rangers again along the way.
Liu Bian became even more grateful to Shi Zixuan. Without his sacrifice, things would not have gone so smoothly.
Liu Bian, who had relaxed for the time being, began to discuss with the military advisor alliance Zhang Liao, the general guarding Sheyuan Pass.
After all, what he knew about Zhang Liao basically came from romance novels, which had little reference significance. He could only turn to history experts from the Military Advisor Alliance for a comprehensive explanation.
"..."
"To sum up, experts from the history department have roughly three evaluations of Zhang Liao. He can be patient, consider the overall situation, and he is very emotional. As for his military ability, even if he doesn't say it, Master Bian should know it!"
"Um."
Liu Bian nodded: "Needless to say, Zhang Liao's military ability is mainly related to his personality and other related aspects. If there is a chance to recruit him, he may be able to use it, so he will be prepared."
"Master Bian is becoming more and more mature, which is a good thing."
The Alliance of Military Advisors praised Liu Bian and then returned to the topic: "Considering the overall situation refers to the battle in Hefei. Zhang Liao had a grudge against Li Dian, but he lowered his status and took the initiative to discuss countermeasures with Li Dian. In the end, they worked together to defeat Sun Quan.
, achieve comprehensive victory.”
"As for emphasizing feelings, it refers to the treatment of Guan Yu. Zhang Liao was sandwiched between Guan Yu and Cao Cao. This kind of dilemma did not allow Zhang Liao to hurt the friendship between the two due to official duties."
"And the first thing mentioned about being able to endure, probably refers to the current stage and the days under Lu Bu's command in the future, not showing off the mountains, not leaking water, trying to save one's life, and being very patient."
"Another point is that although the generals in the Three Kingdoms period were shining brightly, in general, each has its own advantages and disadvantages!"
"For example, although Lu Bu is brave, he always has a woman's kindness and his IQ is worrying;"
"Furthermore, although Zhang Fei respects intellectuals, he is very cruel to the soldiers at the bottom, whipping him at every turn;"
"There is also Guan Yu. Although he loves nursing soldiers, he despises scholar-bureaucrats. He is just the opposite of Zhang Fei."
"If I had to find a perfect general, it would be Cao Wei and Zhang Liao."
"..."
I really don’t know if I don’t hear it, and I’m shocked when I hear it.
In the past, Liu Bian really didn't take Zhang Liao seriously. He felt that he was only a top-notch general among the Three Kingdoms, and there was no comparison with Lu Bu, Guan Yu, and Zhang Fei.
But......
After listening to the analysis of the military advisor alliance, Liu Bian truly realized the horror of Zhang Liao.
One: strong military ability and a true general;
Second: There are no major flaws in his character, he is impeccable.
The first point is self-explanatory. After all, there are many people with strong military abilities, and there are many who are more powerful than Zhang Liao.
But there are no big flaws in his character, which is commendable.
If you think about it carefully, in the Three Kingdoms alone, too many generals have fallen because of character problems.
For example, Liu Bian’s favorites are Lu Bu, Guan Yu, and Zhang Fei.
So much so that in later generations, there are Internet writers who write articles and rely on simulators to change characters’ personalities and create a perfect life.
It can be seen that character flaws are very fatal.
Zhang Liao's almost flawless character is his real magic weapon.
Liu Bian was looking forward to Zhang Liao more and more.
If he can be brought under his command, when the princes attack Dong in the future, they will have a strong general to lead the army.
This is much better than letting him go to the front line in person.
"Master Ben~~"
Seeming that Liu Bian was hesitating, the Military Advisor Alliance hurriedly reminded: "Don't think too much. Recruiting Zhang Liao should only be done when you have no choice. People will not follow you immediately if you raise your arms and shout. You don't have the capital now."
"Um."
Liu Bian nodded: "Teacher, don't worry, I won't be reckless, but if an accident does happen, I have to be prepared. After all, opportunities only leave to those who are prepared, right?"
The Military Advisor Alliance responded: "This is true."
Netizens in the live broadcast room praised:
"That's right, Mr. Ben is right."
"You really should be ready."
"Come on, Mr. Ben."
"..."
It didn't take long.
The caravan arrived in front of Shenyuan Pass.
"Stop~~"
The guards at the pass stopped the team.
The leader was a rough man with disheveled hair, a somewhat ferocious face, and a fierce look on his face: "What are you doing with such a large group of people here?"
The slightly stout man under Deng Zhan hurriedly stepped forward and said with a smile: "The official was just transferred here yesterday, right? We are grain merchants in Luoyang, and we often take this road, and we were stationed here before. I know General Han."
"Which General Han? Labor and management don't know each other."
The rough guy standing in front of him didn't take him seriously at all: "You guys go back. Today, Zhenyuan Pass is closed and no one is allowed in or out. Not to mention General Han, even General Dong will be of no use."
"General~~"
The fat man turned around and glanced at the team, pretending to be sad: "Don't do it. The brothers are still waiting for the grain sellers to come back to pay commissions. If you don't let me pass the Zongyuan Pass, I'm afraid it won't be easy for me to follow. Everyone, tell me, please be accommodating, can you?"
Said.
The fat man took out a bag of money from his sleeve and forced it on the other party.
The rough-looking general was thrown away, and with a cry, the cold sword light was placed directly on the opponent's neck: "Hmph, do you think labor and management are the same as that guy named Han? Put away your dirty money!"
"General, I..."
"Get out!"
"I......"
Just as the quarrel below continued.
suddenly.
A voice sounded from the top of the city: "Old Zhang, what's going on?"
Hearing this, the rough man surnamed Zhang hurriedly turned around and handed over his hand: "Captain, he is a caravan. He went out to sell grain during the winter festival. His behavior is obviously suspicious. The general just ordered him to return to Luoyang."
"Are you still selling food during the winter festival?"
The captain nodded with interest: "Well, his behavior is indeed suspicious."
Before the other party could finish what he said, the fat man hurriedly called out: "Captain, although you can rest during the winter festival, if you can set off early, you can arrive in Runan earlier than the team leaving tomorrow. We have to do this to make a living. "
"Please Captain!"
The fat man cupped his hands and clasped his fists, bowing and saluting: "It's convenient, we do this every year, so why can't we pass this year?"
The rough guy surnamed Zhang interrupted directly: "The past was before, and the present is now. If labor and management say no, it just can't be done, so get out!"
The fat man looked in a dilemma, he was so miserable that he couldn't make any progress or retreat.
Seeing that the situation was not going well, Liu Bian thought out of his wits and shouted: "You are enjoying the good life in the pass, while we ordinary people are doing business to make a living, why don't you let us pass?"
Shi A knew he couldn't give in, so he also shouted: "That's right, all the food in Luoyang depends on us. Without us selling food, do you have the right to yell here?"
Then, Deng Zhan raised his fist and cursed at the top of his lungs: "If you don't let us live, then kill us all in front of the pass. I want to see how you end up if this matter reaches Luoyang?"
One stone stirs up a thousand waves.
Under the leadership of Shi A and Deng Zhan, the entire caravan burst into flames:
"That's right! What we earn is just hard-earned money, and you are cutting off our livelihood."
"If we can't leave the city gate and sell food back, we won't be able to make money. My mother doesn't have money to buy medicine. Will you give it to me?"
"If you don't let us live, we will be killed here."
"Come on! Do it!"
"..."
The screams frightened the previously fierce man surnamed Zhang to wilt. His arrogance disappeared in an instant, and was replaced by a wave of confusion and confusion.
"You... you..."
Just when he didn't know how to face the public anger.
Squeak~~~
City gate exhibition.
A strong man wearing heavy armor walked out from inside:
