When the leader of the team faced Yan Pu's question, a glimmer of admiration flashed in his eyes. Jia Xu was really amazing. He could guess who would come at night during the day. It was really amazing.
"I see."
Hearing what the team leader said, Yan Pu also frowned. It seems that he didn't show anything during the day. This military advisor is so amazing. He actually guessed that he would come at night. This is really amazing.
He became more and more curious about what kind of person he was facing off against.
Could it be said that Jizhou’s Four Great Strategies are really so amazing?
Can you predict the future?
The group of people didn't waste any time and ran directly towards Yuan Shu's camp.
"My lord, military advisor, Yan Pu under Zhang Lu is here."
Yuan Shu and Jia Xu are now in the camp, waiting for someone to come to praise them.
"Wen He, as expected, you were right. What is this Lu Lai doing?"
To be honest, Yuan Shu was shocked when he heard the news of Yan Pu's arrival. He didn't expect that Jia Xu said during the day that someone would come from Baozhong in the evening, but now they really came?
Are you sure you weren't a fortune teller before joining the army?
It seems like I should settle the matter with him if I get the chance.
"Haha, I won't talk nonsense. My lord will know when Yan Pu comes in and asks."
Glancing at Yuan Shu, Jia Xu didn't say much. If he had finished what others had to say, what else could he say when Yan Pu came in? He should keep a line in life so that they could meet each other in the future. After all, they were all comrades who had to squat in the same trench.
.
"Okay, let's bring Yan Pu in."
Seeing that Jia Xu didn't want to talk, Yuan Shu didn't force him. He could only ask Yan Pu to come in and talk with questions.
"Yan Pu meets with Yuan Zhoumu."
Yan Pu entered the tent and saluted directly to Yuan Shu, who was in the first place.
"Well, you are Zhang Lu's chief adviser Yan Pu?"
Looking at Yan Pu in front of him, Yuan Shu also began to carefully look at the number one counselor in Hanzhong.
"I am Yan Pu. I am not qualified to be the chief counselor. I am just giving advice to Master Zhang Lu."
Yan Pu was also stunned when he heard that Yuan Shu actually knew about him. He was just a small person hiding in Hanzhong, but he didn't expect that Yuan Shu would take notice of him.
"Okay, let's not say so much, Yan Pu, why did you come to my place late at night?"
After looking at Yan Pu for a while, Yuan Shu directly asked why he came here.
"Sir, you understand the situation in Hanzhong, I understand it, and Master Zhang Lu understands it. Now it is no longer possible to change the situation. I wonder how you will attack Yizhou next after taking Hanzhong?"
When Yan Pu heard Yuan Shu's words, a flash of light flashed in his eyes, and he directly asked Yuan Shu's next combat strategy.
"Don't ask us about our next combat strategy. What we want to know now is Zhang Lu's attitude, whether to fight or surrender."
Upon hearing Yan Pu's question, Jia Xu smiled slightly and took over his topic.
"I wonder if you are one of the four great conspirators in Jizhou?"
Glancing at Jia Xu who was sitting beside him, a glint flashed in his eyes, and he guessed that this might be one of the four major conspiracies in Jizhou.
"Haha, this is my military advisor for this march, Jia Xu and Jia Wenhe. All wars related to Yizhou will be decided by him."
Yan Pu asked, Yuan Shu smiled directly and introduced Jia Xu.
The four great conspirators of Jizhou are known to the world. Jushu, Tian Feng, Xunyou and Xunchen are all talented and knowledgeable people. Now in the battle of Yangzhou, Chen Gongtai appeared again and helped Yuan Shu win Yangzhou and half of Jingzhou.
, he is also famous all over the world, but he really doesn’t know the Jia Xu in front of him.
Don’t you know him? Since Yuan Shu could choose him to be the military advisor for this Yizhou war, he must be a wise man.
Moreover, he can guess during the day that he will come at night, and he is definitely a monster-like figure.
With so many great conspirators helping Yuan Shu, it is not unreasonable for him to gain the hegemony of the Han Dynasty.
"Yan Pu pays homage to Mr. Wen He."
Not daring to be negligent, Yan Pu immediately saluted Jia Xu with clasped fists.
"Jia Xu is also polite."
Seeing Yan Pu clasping his fists, Jia Xu returned the gesture.
"Mr. I haven't answered the question I just asked. What is Zhang Lu's plan? Fight or surrender."
The two of them had met, so Jia Xu continued the question.
"My lord was about to surrender during the day, but I stopped him. I came here late at night just because I had some ideas that I wanted to discuss with my lord."
After listening to Jia Xu's words, Yan Pu directly stated what Zhang Lu meant and his own purpose.
"Since Zhang Lu has decided to surrender, we are a family. There is no need to be formal. If you have any ideas, just tell us."
Yan Pu prevented Zhang Lu from surrendering in public. Yuan Shu's heart immediately became excited. He glanced at Jia Xu next to him and knew that Yan Pu might want to trick someone.
"Thank you, Lord."
Upon hearing that Yuan Shu had accepted him and Zhang Lu, Yan Pu saluted Yuan Shu directly and changed his title to "Lord".
"Ding dong, congratulations to the host for recovering Yan Pu, a famous official of the Eastern Han Dynasty, and will be rewarded with fifteen prestige points."
"Ding dong, congratulations to the host for regaining Zhang Lu of the Eastern Han Dynasty. The reward is eight points of prestige."
Following Yan Pu's "Lord", the system prompts sounded directly in Yuan Shu's mind, which basically confirmed that Zhang Lu and Yan Pu were sincerely relying on him and were not here to fool him.
"Um."
Yuan Shu nodded at Yan Pu.
"Lord, the reason why I just asked about the marching strategy after taking Hanzhong is actually because I have a plan. The road from Hanzhong to Chengdu is difficult, and it is a bit difficult to get there from Bajun. Zitong County is slightly better than Bajun.
,
But there is a big problem when going to Zitong County, which is the Jiameng Pass across the road. The strategic location of this pass is very important. It is easy to defend but difficult to attack. Now Zhao Wei has sent 30,000 troops to guard it. If he rushes to attack the pass, it will be very serious.
difficulty,
So my idea is that Zhang Lu and I will pretend to have failed and withdraw from Hanzhong County, and then go to Zitong County through Hanzhong. Zhao Wei will definitely accept us into the customs by then.
When the lord leads his army to arrive, we can cooperate with the inside and outside to capture Jiameng Pass and open the passage to the south."
Yan Pu directly stated his thoughts. As long as he could capture Jiameng Pass, it would be much easier to go south to Chengdu.
"Wenhe, how do you feel?"
After listening to Yan Pu's words, Yuan Shu directly expressed his feeling that this was indeed the case. Sure enough, the intellectuals in the Three Kingdoms period were not good people, and they were going to trick Zhao Wei before he even started.
"Lord, if you follow what Yan Pu said, this plan is feasible, but some of the things inside need to be discussed in detail."
A flash of light flashed in Jia Xu's eyes. To be honest, he had thought of various possibilities as early as during the day, but Yan Pu's words coincided with what he expected. If he did what he said, Jiameng Pass would be
It’s really easy to get, but there are still many details to pay attention to.
For example, how many soldiers and horses Zhang Lu took to leave, what he said after arriving at Jiameng Pass, and how to deal with Nanzheng, all need to be discussed.
"Well, in that case let's discuss it."
Hearing Jia Xu's agreement, Yuan Shu had no objections. He knew what was difficult about Jiameng Pass. Liu Bei's troops encountered setbacks outside Jiameng Pass. If he could have Zhang Lu as his internal support, he wanted to capture Jiameng Pass.
Meng Guan is really easy.
The three people directly began to discuss the details, and continued chatting for about an hour before Yan Pu said goodbye and left the camp and returned to Baozhong.
"My lord, do you really trust Yan Pu and Zhang Lu?"
It wasn't until Yan Pu left that Jia Xu glanced at Yuan Shu and then spoke out the doubts in his heart. If it was true as Yan Pu said, it would be easy to capture Jiameng Pass, but there was a question of loyalty involved.
If Zhang Lu just used this as an excuse, and then evacuated with his troops and horses, after returning to Jiameng Pass, it would only become more difficult for him to attack.
"Wen He, my rule of thumb in employing people is to employ people without suspicion and not with people who are suspicious. Moreover, as soon as Hanzhong lost Yizhou County, it opened its doors to us. The general trend is that I am not Liu Yan.
If Zhang Lu really pretended to surrender and actually led his troops to retreat, then I don't care, but as long as he dares to betray this time, he will be buried next time when my troops come to the city.
As long as Zhang Lu is not a fool, he will never sacrifice his life for Liu Yanlai, what do you think?"
