It's not that Yang Zheng is biased against Yang Ji, but that he is somewhat suspicious of the noble family behind him.

The last time Yang Ji delivered news, it could be seen how much Xiahou Ba relied on him.

In other words, Yang Ji knows enough secrets.

"Greetings, brother." Yang Ji bowed to Yang Zheng.

Yang Zheng also returned the gift with his hand, "We are smart and hardworking."

Yang Ji smiled heartily, "What's the point of hard work when it's your job?"

After all, he is a descendant of the Yang family of Hongnong, and his words and deeds carry a unique temperament that makes people feel close to him.

For a moment I couldn't tell whether he was a human or a ghost.

With so many people in Yunwu City, trying to find the details is undoubtedly like looking for a needle in a haystack.

"Since it is a detailed work, it must be coordinated inside and outside. Why don't you secretly supervise the four city gates? There will always be clues, and you can also prevent the detailed work from causing trouble." Xia Houzhi said in a low voice.

"As expected of my good wife." Yang Zheng couldn't help but hugged her waist. This intimate gesture made the defenders stunned.

Xiahou Zhi pushed Yang Zheng away angrily, and two red clouds flew up on his face.

Yang Zheng then divided his bodyguard into three groups and dispersed them to the southeast and west.

He and Xia Houzhi stayed with Xia Houba.

I am allowed to rely on Huangshui River in the north, large rivers in the east, and high mountains in the southwest as barriers, making it difficult to garrison troops.

It was where Huo Qubing stationed troops to spy on the Hunxie King's tribe of the Xiongnu in Hexi.

Most of the places chosen by Huo Qubing were strategic locations with great military value. Cao Wei moved the county seat of Jincheng County to the more affluent Yuzhong due to the Qiang and Hu rebellions.

However, the military value of this city has not been reduced by half. It forms a mutually dependent offensive and defensive triangle with Wuhan in the southwest and Didao in the southeast.

People at that time called this the head of the river.

If you want to attack forcefully, you must pay the price.

After Guo Huai's first wave of coaxing, deceiving and intimidating failed, the rest depends on whose fist is stronger and whose knife is more ruthless.

Although Xiahou Ba tricked Yang Zheng.

But from another perspective, if Yang Zheng had not arrived in time, would Xiahou Ba be driven to Shu by Guo Huai as in history?

The possibility is very high.

Without Xiahou Ba, Yang Zheng might not be able to stop the squeeze from Guo Huai, Deng Ai, and Chen Tai.

There is no need to squeeze. As the governor of Qin in Yongliang, Guo Huai only needs a military order to change defenses, and Yang Zheng will fall into great passivity.

"Why did Zhong Quan betray the Wei Dynasty?" Guo Huai came to the moat surrounded by a group of soldiers, full of anger.

This distance is just outside the range of the bow and arrow.

"It's obvious that you are trapped in a certain situation. Our Xiahou family has been loyal to the Wei Dynasty for generations and fought bloody battles for the country. How can we betray without reason?" Xiahou Ba also learned his lesson and refused to admit it.

Yang Zheng was quite pleased.

People are too honest these days, how can we survive.

From now on, without the care of Cao Shuang and Xia Houxuan, I will have to rely on myself for everything.

Guo Huai laughed loudly, "Since Zhong Quan has not committed treason, why should he be so nervous? The imperial court appoints a certain commander to oversee the military affairs of Yong, Liang and Qin. What grievances do you have? You might as well open the city gate and I will clear your case."

His tone and manner were like coaxing a four or five year old child.

The city gate is open, what crime is not up to you?

However, he is now in charge of the military affairs of Yongliang and Qin, and Qinzhou is also under his control.

It is true that I have the right to inspect Yunwu.

Xiahou Ba was at a loss for words for a moment. He could kill people if he was allowed to do so, but he would be far from the opponent of others if he was allowed to file a lawsuit.

The defenders on the city wall turned to him again.

As the backbone, if the momentum drops slightly, it will affect the morale of the entire army.

Guo Huai undoubtedly posed a difficult problem for Xiahou Ba.

Yang Zheng whispered a few words into Xiahou Ba's ear. Xiahou Ba looked in disbelief, but he still followed Yang Zheng's words.

Xiahou Ba shouted loudly: "Captain Guo mobilized troops and mobilized people like this, how can he not show his loyalty to the landlord? Governor Guo quickly enter the city, I, Xiahou Ba, have always been upright and aboveboard."

The northern city gate slowly opened.

This move made Guo Huai's eyes look complicated.

There are 20,000 troops in the city, and you, Guo Huai, only have 20,000 troops. If you dare to come in, I will catch the turtle in the urn!

Who is afraid of whom these days?

If you should risk your life, you have to risk your life.

"Who is it? It turns out it's your kid here." Guo Huai had good eyesight. When he saw Yang Zheng whispering next to Xiahou Ba, his eyes became more complicated.

When his name was called, Yang Zheng had no choice but to stand from behind the scenes to the front of the stage and salute the city, "General Yang Zheng, please pay your respects to Governor Guo."

"It must be you who deceived Zhong Quan into colluding with Shu." Guo Huai spoke with heart-wrenching words.

"Captain Guo, please don't slander anyone. I, Yang Zheng, am loyal to the Wei Dynasty, and the sun can show it!" Yang Zheng pointed to the sky and said.

The weather is nice today, cloudless and not like thunder.

Besides, Sima Yi can point at Luo Shui and fart, but he can’t imitate it?

"The banquet has been prepared in the city. We respectfully invite Governor Guo to enter the city!" Yang Zheng bowed his hand again.

He winked at the guards around him.

The guards immediately opened their throats and shouted: "We respectfully invite Governor Guo to enter the city!"

Xiahou Ba's personal guards also shouted: "We respectfully invite Governor Guo to enter the city!"

The roars of hundreds of people echoed across both sides of the Huangshui River.

Two rays of anger burst out from Guo Huai's eyes, shooting towards Yang Zheng across the moat.

It's a pity that looks can't kill after all.

Yang Zheng couldn't help but think of Guo Huai's arrogant appearance on the horse at the gate of Wugong City.

Being so defeated today can be regarded as a small revenge.

After a while, Guo Huai looked up to the sky and laughed, "Hahaha, hello Yang Zheng, it's getting late today, so don't bother me. We have a long way to go!"

With a big wave of his hand, the armored man raised his shield and retreated slowly.

Cheers immediately erupted from the city walls.

Xia Houzhi beside him looked at Yang Zheng with a hint of admiration in his eyes.

Xiahou Ba punched the pheasant dish, "After today, Xingyun will be a famous general in the world!"

Yang Ji smiled and said, "Brother has a good plan."

The confidence of the surrounding soldiers is also rising.

Yang Zheng has great pride in his heart. If he can use words to retreat from Guo Huai, he should be able to understand it!

Not long after, both armies outside the city retreated five miles, set up camp, and set up defenses.

Of course, it's not that Guo Huai is really afraid of Yang Zheng, but that he also has scruples.

Xiahou Ba was the governor of Qinzhou appointed by the imperial court, and he was also a general in charge of guarding the Shu army.

The governor of Yongliang and the governor of Qinzhou were in conflict. Even if Guo Huai won the battle, the whole country would be shocked when news of this incident spread.

After all, Xiahou Ba has 20,000 troops, relying on the fortified city.

It’s still unclear who will win!

Although Guo Huai sent out a large army, he still only dared to fight in secret and did not dare to fight openly.

Everyone is playing with their heartbeats to see who can keep calm.

If Xiahou Ba cannot bear the pressure and behaves in a panic, Guo Huai can kill him with one blow!

This is also the reason why Guo Huai did not bring any siege equipment.

The two lived together in Yongliang for more than 20 years, and they knew each other better than a married couple.

Guo Huai looked like he was going to defeat Xiahou Ba.

But the appearance of Yang Zheng changed things.

With the current situation, as long as the internal factors are eliminated, Xiahou Ba can rest easy.

There is a famous saying in later generations that war is the continuation of politics.

The northwest situation is also a continuation of the Luoyang Chaotang situation.

As long as Xiahou Ba didn't openly rebel, Guo Huai would have to build a memorial for himself even if he forced her into prostitution.
