After Zhang Song smiled, Liu Zhang said in great embarrassment: "After all, Zhao Zhen has made meritorious contributions to quelling the rebellion, and he has never been at fault on weekdays, how can he convince the people of the world to raise troops for no reason?" ”

Zhang Song's eyes widened in disbelief: "Fujun, officials and localities collude with each other to conceal and bully, greed and chaos of power and public grievances are everywhere, and if it continues to develop, it will become a big disaster, now Jiangzhou is empty, then Liu Qi took the initiative to divide his troops away from Yufu, this is a godsend, please take the opportunity to take back Guling and Yongning in one fell swoop with the power of thunder, and deter the counties, after a battle, you can enjoy a hundred years of benefits, Wangfujun don't hesitate!" ”

"This, this ......."

If, as Zhang Song said, Guling, Yongning, Jiangyang, and Qianwei counties are directly in their hands, the Yangtze River, the lifeblood of the entire Yizhou will be tightly held in Liu Zhang's hands, and there will be no local forces in Yizhou at that time that can compete with him, as long as anyone dares to show the slightest intention of subordination, there is no need for an army at all, just pinch this economic artery slightly, and within half a year, the opponent will be short of food and clothing, and obediently kneel at Liu Zhang's feet.

In the face of such temptation, Liu Zhang almost blurted out "Send troops!" But Zhao Zhen, Liu Qi, Li Mao, these three names kept hovering in his mind and pressed Liu Zhang and couldn't make up his mind, he was sweating nervously, and he stammered a little when he spoke: "It's hard to hide the eyes and ears of the soldiers and horses, and the Li clan in Linjiang also has thousands of elite soldiers, if Zhao Zhen is prepared to defend Jiangzhou, how can he take it quickly, the rebellion of Guling will move my Yizhou fundamentally, Yongning will be chaotic again, then Liu Qi is outside, what if he takes refuge in Liu Biao to lead the army to attack?" ”

The more Liu Zhang said that the confidence he had just built up accelerated the collapse, and Zhang Song repeatedly persuaded Liu Zhang to just shake his head: "No, I also ask Ziqiao to think of another trick to teach me." ”

Hey, Zhang Song sighed secretly and had no choice but to give up, got up and paced slowly, sat back in front of Liu Zhang for a long time, stretched out his hand to stroke his sparse short beard, and said slowly: "Actually, Fujun doesn't need to worry too much, then Liu Qi should bear the brunt of the Yan clan before Wu Tao arrives, and support the goodwill to succeed and control the military and politics first, but he divided his troops to chase Yan Zhanyu's party, and the remaining soldiers camped outside the city and didn't care about the affairs in the city, Liu Qi had no interest in Yufu and took the initiative to divide his troops, If Zhao Fengjie really had bad intentions, how could he make him do such a stupid thing of cutting off his hands and feet? ”

"Sizzle......!" Liu Zhang took a breath and digested Zhang Song's words, then came over and came closer and asked, "Ziqiao is talking about ......?" ”

Zhang Song waved his hand and said: "Song thinks that Zhao Fengjie has no intention of forming a party to compete with the state government, and Zhao Wei joins forces to get rid of Yan Zhan because he hates his collusion with the Yellow Turban thieves and troubles Yongning. In the future, the government will step up military training and preparation, enrich military resources, grain and grass, divide the county officials and local wealthy families, and when the soldiers are strong and strong, all localities will be in awe and dare not think about anything else, although this is slow, it can also solve the worries of the government monarch. ”

"What Ziqiao said is exactly what I want!" Liu Zhang couldn't stop nodding and praised Zhang Song repeatedly.

At this moment, Liu Zhang looked at Zhang Song again and only felt that his rat-eyed garlic nose and protruding lips and buckteeth felt indescribably cordial, and patted Zhang Song's shoulder affectionately and smiled: "Huang Gong is old and sick, and has recommended Ziqiao to take over, and in the future, I will ask Ziqiao to help me preside over the military and politics and benefit Yizhou!" ”

Zhang Song hurriedly got up after hearing this, solemnly gave Liu Zhang a salute, and said in surprise: "Song wishes, liver and brain, I have reported the grace of the prince!" ”

After a while, the excitement calmed down slightly, and Zhang Song, who was anxious to perform, immediately proposed to Liu Zhang some of the shortcomings of the current military and political affairs, and wanted to put forward his own opinions to improve, but Liu Zhang may have just let go of the burden in his heart, and interrupted his words without waiting for Zhang Song to say the second sentence.

"Zi Qiao, don't be in a hurry, how can the major military affairs be solved in a moment? The coming day is long, listen to Ziqiao's guidance another day, today Ziqiao solves my big trouble, I will definitely have a few drinks with Ziqiao! ”

"Eh, Ziqiao doesn't need to say much, today's business is over, you and I only talk about Fengyue, and we will rest when we get drunk, hahaha......!"

Zhang Song wanted to say something, Liu Zhang smiled and waved his hand and loudly ordered his subordinates to prepare a wine banquet singer, Zhang Song had no choice but to press his eagerness to accompany Liu Zhang to drink and have fun.

Zhang Song never let go of his mind to drink to his heart's content, and finally got Liu Zhang's strength to break up the banquet, and when he returned home, Zhang Song locked himself in the house and thought quietly.

In Liu Zhang's mansion, Zhang Song has already been carefully considered, the situation in the counties of Yizhou is similar, but the geographical location of Yufu and Jiangzhou is too important, and the ability of Zhao Yun and Zhao Zhen is also much stronger than that of other counties, so that Liu Zhang is particularly jealous, in fact, Zhang Song is very sorry for Liu Zhang, if Liu Zhang can incur these two people to be around him, there must be today's worries, since such talents are not willing to use, they should be eliminated as soon as possible, otherwise it is difficult to ensure that there is no Yongning Rebellion after the Guling Rebellion.

Zhang Song disdained Liu Zhang's worries in his heart, this lord of Yizhou was really indecisive, and it was easy to win the position of Taishou, just a little means to make them obedient, Zhang Song examined the Taishou and the ministers of the twelve counties of Yizhou one by one in his mind, and finally stayed on Zhang Lu and Zhao Zhen, the Taishou of Hanzhong.

Zhang Song shook his head lightly and stroked the short beard under his chin from time to time with his hand, and finally smiled lightly, Hanzhong is not worth mentioning, Zhang Lu fools the people of the county with the way of ghosts and gods, and cuts off all contacts with the outside world, which is tantamount to making a cocoon and taking a dead end, in Zhang Song's opinion, it is not difficult to take Hanzhong, only Zhao Di is qualified to call himself his opponent, but although Zhao Zhen's ability is strong, it is still inferior to himself, after all, Zhao Zhen only has a county, no matter from which aspect it is really unwise to compete with the entire Yizhou, there is no need to fight against each other, It is only necessary to order the surrounding counties to send troops to block Yongning's contact with the outside world, and within half a year, civil strife will definitely occur, and in March, Yongning will be self-defeating.

As for Liu Zhang's fear that Zhao Zhen would defend the city and Li Mao would defend the city, why did they have to go to the road of death without hesitation? Liu Zhang only wants military and political power, and he naturally has no worries about his life when he hands over power, even if he is afraid that Liu Zhang will escape from Yizhou after settling accounts after the autumn, they will never do such a stupid thing with the cleverness of these two people, they just dare to act recklessly because they see Liu Zhang's gains and losses.

In the future, he slowly persuaded Liu Zhang that as long as he made an edict, Zhao Zhen would either obediently present the Taishou Great Seal with both hands, or abandon the official and leave, and there was no other way.

Zhang Song laughed a little smugly, but a name suddenly flashed in his mind to interrupt his laughter.

Liu Qi!

Well, if this Liu Qi can be used for his own use, he may be a manufacturable material in the future!

Zhang Song couldn't help but shake his head self-deprecatingly, in his opinion, Liu Qi is just a weak-crowned young man who has just emerged, although he has been in the limelight recently, but carefully analyze the few miraculous victories that were blown are actually all opportunistic, ordinary people don't know so hearsay that this son is called the reincarnation of Han Xin by some people!

It's ridiculous, it's really ridiculous, although Zhang Song has to admit that this son has some whimsy, but people's luck can't always be so good, if there is no wise man around him to guide him, he will play with fire and burn himself sooner or later.

For example, in this battle to recover Yufu, Zhang Song didn't need to look at the collected intelligence to think of what method Liu Qi used to do it, the terrain of Yufu County is dangerous, if there is no internal and external cooperation, even if there are ten times the number of troops, it is difficult to capture the city within a year, Liu Qi dared to make a military order with a deadline of one month, what if the internal response is not good?

Although he is not a delicate person who is bold and reckless, there is still a lot to be done with a steady person by his side to restrain and guide this son!

Zhang Song spread out the silk silk and wrote hard, tomorrow he wants to show Liu Zhang to order Wu Tao to make some trouble to provoke the relationship between Liu Qi and Zhao Zhen and Li Mao, and find a way to win Liu Qi to return to obedience, Wu Tao and his people do not have much talent, Zhang Song needs a resourceful person to help.

"Come, take this letter to Xindu (Guanghan County) to invite Mr. Xiaozhi to come, there must be no mistake!"

Wu Tao was really a little wronged, because he had already racked his brains to make trouble for Liu Qi, and it was quite effective, so that Liu Qi, who was in Wu County, had no available generals except for the reluctant general Liang Feng.

As early as when he sent troops from Quren, Liu Qi began to prepare for the eastward advance, and the five thousand soldiers and horses in his hands could be rampant in Guling, but it was not enough for Liu Biao to plug his teeth when he went out of Yizhou to Jingzhou, and it was obviously not feasible to come hard, so Liu Qi had to let Gan Ning go to Jingzhou first to dredge.

Gan Ning and Jiangxia Taishou Huang Zu's subordinates Su Fei have a great friendship, Su Fei is Huang Zu's love will obey him, if Su Fei is willing to help Huang Zu, the matter will be half the success, Liu Zhang and Liu Biao have been in a tense relationship, Liu Qi took it upon himself to convey the meaning of reconciliation between the two families to Huang Zu, and it is also a beauty difference for Huang Zu who does not need to contribute but can please Liu Biao, I believe that Huang Zu will definitely advise Liu Biao.

Huang Zu was extremely powerful in Jingzhou, and his words carried a lot of weight, and Liu Biao was not a belligerent person, so he was unlikely to refuse, and if nothing else, he could successfully pass through Jingzhou to reach the first destination, Yuzhang County.

Gan Ning will go for at least a month, before the success of the matter Liu Qi did not dare to go deep into Jingzhou, only with more than 1,000 people temporarily stayed on the edge of Wuxian, and Zhao Rong also led the remaining 4,000 people back to Jiangzhou, although Liu Qi was extremely reluctant, but he was afraid of Yan Yan's warning Liu Qi did not dare to take away all the 5,000 elite soldiers, although I don't know whether Yan Yan's words were true, but Liu Qi really did not dare to take this risk, Zhao Zhen did not have such an elite army loyal to him in his hands It is too dangerous, and the extremely empty Jiangzhou is easy for Liu Zhang to take risks, Only with the army in hand can Liu Zhang be suppressed, and he does not dare to act rashly.

In addition, providing supplies for five or six thousand people, the size of the transport fleet is not conducive to avoiding people's eyes and ears, and it is still early for Yan Yan to truly grasp the power of Guling and completely control the waterway pass, if it is reduced to less than two percent, the transportation team will not delay Liu Qi's action and attract attention.
