After taking the letter from the primary school master and reading it, Liu Zhang couldn't help but be furious. He handed the letter to Guo Jiadao: "Pang Xi is a common man who has brought his own death. Let's discuss how to deal with him!"
"What's wrong?" Liu Yan couldn't help but feel a little uncomfortable when he saw this. After all, Pang Xi was once his subordinate. Liu Yan naturally hoped that the brothers Paoze and his biological son could live in harmony.
After Guo Jia read the letter, he handed it directly to Liu Yandao: "Pang Xi gathered all 80,000 elite soldiers from Ba County and went straight to Chengdu."
"That's wrong!" Liu Yan said doubtfully: "Pang Xi should only have 50,000 elites, so why 80,000?"
"Of course he recruited them privately!" Zhang Song said with a smile: "In the past two years, the money and food submitted by Ba County have been decreasing. I have reported it to your Excellency a long time ago. Your Excellency said that because of the war in the world and the decrease in money and food from Ba County,
It’s normal!”
"This..." Liu Yan said in shock: "You mean, Pang Xi has been gathering strength for a long time?"
Zhang Song said with a smile: "It's no longer just a day or two for Pang Xi to support his troops and respect himself! In the past, when the master invited him to come, how could he not shirk it? The Pang clan was rampant in lawlessness in Bajun, and Pang Xi was the chief culprit.
The culprit!"
"Why is this happening?" Liu Yan looked ahead blankly. He never expected that the people he trusted the most would betray him.
In fact, Liu Yan didn't know that if it weren't for historical changes and Liu Zhang took control of Yizhou, Zhang Lu would separate Hanzhong and Pang Xi would separate Brazil, leaving only a small area in Shuzhong. Of course, this was all after Liu Yan died.
What happened later!
Seeing Liu Yan so sad, Liu Zhang patted him gently on the back and said, "Father, troubled times have come, and many people want to get a share of the troubled times. If Pang Xi doesn't rebel while I'm not yet stable in Yizhou, he will
There’s no chance!”
"Really?" Liu Yan shook his head bitterly and smiled: "My son, I am not as good as you as a father!"
"Father, what's the difference between you and me?" Liu Zhang said with a smile: "Pang Xi is just a clown, he can be captured by a general! Yun Chang!"
"Here!" Guan Yu clasped his fists and said, "The last general is willing to defeat Pang Xi!"
Liu Zhang smiled and nodded and said: "Han Sheng has already confronted Pang Xi. You go and help him! It is best to capture Pang Xi alive!"
"Yes!" Guan Yu stroked his long beard and strode out.
"What a great general!" Liu Yan looked at Guan Yu's back and couldn't help but sigh.
Liu Zhang laughed and said: "Father, what you said is wrong! Yide and Zilong, who are not talented generals? If Zilong and Pang Xi rebel, Zhang Lu will not be stable, Zhu Ti will be left to you!"
"Don't worry, brother!" Zhao Yun said with a smile: "Yun will definitely capture Zhang Lu alive!"
When Liu Yan saw that Zhao Yun underestimated the enemy, he couldn't help but said anxiously: "I heard that Zhang Lu has a counselor named Yan Pu. This man is very resourceful. Zilong needs to be careful!"
"Don't worry, sir!" Zhao Yun clasped his fists and retreated.
"Brother, what should I do?" Zhang Fei immediately became anxious when he saw that Zhao Yun and Guan Yu both had tasks, so they didn't arrange them for him.
Liu Zhang smiled and said: "Yide led his troops to Hanzhong to support Yan Yan!"
"Ah?" Zhang Fei asked doubtfully: "There is no rebellion in Hanzhong!"
Liu Zhang smiled and said: "Yide, Hanzhong is Zhang Lu's home base. God knows if he ambush people there? If Hanzhong is lost, it will cut off the connection with Bingzhou. Now that the incident happened suddenly, you are the only one with cavalry under your command.
Therefore, I sent you to help, so as not to lose Hanzhong!"
"Little brother, I understand!" Zhang Fei understood the importance of Hanzhong and immediately organized his army to help.
"Fengxiao!" Liu Zhang said with a smile: "Inform Zhang Ren and ask him to guard Chengdu, and then order Gan Ning to assemble his troops and march to Hanzhong!"
"Yes!" Guo Jia turned around and left, followed by Fazheng!
When Liu Yan saw that Liu Zhang had made arrangements so quickly, he couldn't help but sigh: "My son is really a hero! If he were a father, he would definitely be in a panic for a while!"
Liu Zhang smiled and said: "My father is a prince of peace, but my son is a general in troubled times. Naturally, he is slightly better than his father in decision-making. However, when it comes to internal affairs, my son is far inferior to his father!"
Liu Yan was delighted to be photographed by Liu Zhang. Liu Yan couldn't help but laugh and said: "My son knows how to use people well, even better than his father! To be a monarch, you don't need to have many skills, as long as you can use people. Just like
Gaozu, he is actually just a green man, but he has a group of brothers to support him. My son is very similar to Gaozu!"
"Uh... I am wise and powerful, but my father actually said that I look like that old gangster Liu Bang?" Liu Zhang broke into a cold sweat when he heard this. He couldn't help but change the subject and said: "Father, Yizhou has been unstable recently, so you can stay in the Governor's Mansion for now.
How about you wait for me to get rid of all those rebellious people and then go have a leisurely life?"
"This..." Liu Yan asked weakly: "Then Zhang..."
"I'll just pretend I haven't seen her! Of course, it's best if she doesn't appear in front of me!" Liu Zhang was quite helpless. He really didn't expect Liu Yan to be so interested in that little widow.
"Is this what is called love?" Liu Zhang thought.
Liu Yan was really happy to see Liu Zhang being so reasonable. It wasn't that Liu Yan, the father, was afraid of Liu Zhang, but that Liu Yan didn't want to fall out with Liu Zhang anymore. After all, Liu Yan's other three sons had not been together for two or three years.
Contact Liu Yan!
"Father, you should have a good rest! I asked Mrs. Zhang to serve you!" Yizhou was in chaos and Liu Zhang was busy with official duties. Seeing that Liu Yan was a little tired, he said goodbye and ordered someone to call Mrs. Zhang to accompany Liu Yan.
However, since Mrs. Zhang found out that the person who kidnapped her was Zhang Wei, she was a little bit lost. In order to restore her, Liu Yan spent a lot of time.
"Fengxiao, how is the situation?" Liu Zhang walked out of the backyard of the Governor's Mansion and found Guo Jia.
"Reporting to my lord, several generals have already set off. I believe there will be good news soon! However, will my lord go there in person in Hanzhong?" Guo Jia was not worried about Pang Xi and others, but he was a little worried.
Worried about Zhang Lu.
You must know that no matter how powerful Pang Xi is, he is just a foreigner with no roots in Yizhou, while Zhang Lu has lived through three generations. Starting from his grandfather, the Five Dou Rice Cult has taken root in Hanzhong.
"Don't worry!" Liu Zhang said with a smile: "Hanzhong is guarded by Yan Yan, plus Xingba and Yide, even if there are 100,000 elites, we can't even think of breaking through! Haste makes waste, defeat Pang Xi first, and then deploy heavy troops
Just suppress Hanzhong! Besides, even if I want to mobilize troops to Hanzhong, I don’t have that many troops at hand!"
"Uh..." Guo Jia was shocked to find that Liu Zhang's 100,000 elite men had been sent out, leaving only 3,000 guards. Most of these 3,000 people were veterans who had retired from the battlefield because of their age. Let them go back
It was a pity to farm the land, so Liu Zhang organized them into guards to stay at the governor's mansion. Although these people had good fighting ability, they were old and frail, so in a tough battle, the casualties would be heavier.
Seeing that Guo Jia still seemed a little worried, Liu Zhang couldn't help but smile and said: "Fengxiao, believe me. If Zilong and the others can't even deal with clowns like Pang Xi and Zhang Lu, how can they compete with me to dominate the world in the future?"
