Volume 3 Chapter 271 Hanzhong Trivia (4)
That impassioned song really touched Zhao Yun's heartstrings. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
Zhao Yun's hometown is in Changshan, Hebei Province, such a geographical location is destined to Zhao Yun from childhood often to contact the northern nomads at that time, related things have never been uncommon, and the attitude towards the northern aliens has long been rooted in his heart. Later, when Yuan Shao and Gongsun Chan competed, so many people chose Yuan Shao, but Zhao Yun chose Gongsun Chan, which is mostly related to Yuan Shao and Sun Sun Zhan's different attitudes towards foreign races in the north: Yuan Shao adopted Huairou, and Gongsun Chan chose to resist, for Zhao Yun, who has some ideas in his heart, of course, it is more pleasing to the eye to see Gongsun Zhan.
Of course, the later result was that Zhao Yun was getting farther and farther away from his original idea, and Zhao Yun was helpless about it. And Lu Ren deliberately sang that song and said those words, which evoked something in Zhao Yun's heart......
I won't say much about this, anyway, who doesn't have a dream in their hearts? But how many people in the world can make their dreams come true? As for Zhao Yun's hurried departure, the reason is very simple: as a pure man, he really doesn't want to be seen in tears. In some ways...... Lu Ren's identity is sensitive, and Zhao Yun has to avoid suspicion.
Okay, okay, in short, Brother Yun just found a place where no one was there and felt sad and shed some tears, and his mood gradually stabilized. However, after this trouble, Brother Yun became more concerned about the fight against foreign races. After a little more muttering, Brother Yun summoned an entourage and asked this entourage to invite Lu Ren to sit at Brother Yun's residence at night.
Lu Ren was chatting with Pang Tong at this moment. However, Pang Tong didn't have much thought when he came to see Lu Renzhi, to put it bluntly, he just came over to chat and pull the relationship that should be pulled.
Unlike Zhuge Liang, there is almost no intersection between Pang Tong and Lu Ren, and relatively speaking, Pang Tong's temper is a little stinky, and he has a little high self-esteem, the result is that when Lu Ren was active in Jingzhou, Zhuge Liang would run to contact Lu Ren and ask Lu Ren for advice, but Pang Tong looked down on Lu Ren a little, so he didn't even bother to go.
Later, Lu Ren went back to Yizhou to slowly get his family background up, and Pang Tong followed Liu Bei after the Battle of Chibi, and there was no reason to go to Yizhou to find Lu Ren. In fact, there were really not a few people like Pang Tong who looked down on Lu Ren at that time, and Pang Tong was just one of them, after all, Lu Ren's "background" was really inferior.
In the future, Lu Ren's movements became more and more noisy, and Pang Tong would feel a little blind to Lu Ren, but because he was already from Liu Bei, it was unrealistic to want to visit Lu Ren. Now it is rare to encounter such an opportunity, and Pang Tong certainly does not want to miss it. Moreover, when Liu Bei was leaving, he also confessed that he wanted to improve the relationship with Lu Ren, and it was justified for Pang Tong to come to Lu Ren to chat or something.
On the other hand, although Pang Tong is now the decision-maker here in Hanzhong, when he meets Guan Yu and Zhang Fei, Pang Tong also has a headache, so he really wants to find someone with a "common language" to talk to and relieve the annoyance in his heart.
“…… Lu Zhengnan, having said so much, how do you think we here in Hanzhong should deal with it now? ”
Lu Ren stretched out his hand to fill Pang Tong with wine, and muttered: "Declare in advance, I am completely out of the opinion of a bystander, don't think that I am taking this opportunity to help anyone." ”
Pang Tong smiled: "Although I am stupid, I can ignore it, so Lu Zhengnan said that it is okay." ”
Lu Ren dipped some wine and drew a sketch on the table: "I personally think that Hanzhong has the advantage of terrain here, and it is not difficult to defend it, and after the Western Regions Alliance Army repels the imperial uncle, it can mobilize troops to help the battlefield on the Chang'an side." Chang'an's side is mostly a vast plain, which is conducive to the Western Regions coalition forces to give full play to their cavalry advantages, so the battle to defend Chang'an that Cao Pi wants to fight will be very difficult to fight. ”
Pang Tong nodded: "That's true...... Lu Zhengnan, do you want to say that Hanzhong should appropriately send some reinforcements to reinforce Chang'an? ”
Lu Ren also nodded: "I think so." To be honest, I've never been very good at marching and fighting, but I think that if there is a force that is good at mountain warfare stationed at the northern exit of the Meridian Valley to harass and contain the Western Regions coalition forces from time to time, it can also relieve some of the pressure on Chang'an. Of course, I still say that this pure quenching is just my advice as a bystander and an outsider. ”
Pang Tong lowered his head and thought for a while, then raised his head and smiled: "Lu Zhengnan is quite able to understand my difficulties here. ”
Lu Ren shrugged: "After so many years, if you don't understand this thing, then I'll mix it up." ”
Pang Tong smiled a little sinisterly: "But it's not entirely like that. I also think that I have some vision, knowing that once Chang'an fails, the Central Plains will be chaotic, and if we blindly stand still here, we will be abused and ridiculed after death, so I actually want to do something in Xia. ”
Lu Ren took a sip of wine with a smile: "Brother Shiyuan, don't mess around." What kind of arrangements will Uncle Huang have before leaving, even if I don't know, I can guess some, so why do you bother to set yourself on fire, Brother Shiyuan? ”
Pang Tong was happy: "It's not to set yourself on fire, but to plan to bring disaster to the east." ”
Lu Ren was stunned, and then the hand that raised the glass trembled slightly: "Brother Shiyuan, you're not joking, are you?" Do you want to cause trouble? ”
Pang Tongxue shrugged his shoulders as Lu Ren looked just now: "No way, although the lord said that he wanted to restrain people below, how can some people be restrained below?" So after thinking about it carefully, instead of being messed around by them because they couldn't control them, it was better to find a way to guide them to a suitable place. As long as these people don't have any major incidents, they can be explained when the lord comes back. ”
Lu Ren was dumbfounded: "Brother Shiyuan, are you hitting me with the idea?" But then again, you're planning to yin me, so what do you mean by telling me openly? ”
Pang Tong still smiled a little sinisterly: "How can you Lu Zhengnan be an ordinary person?" At least ask yourself, if you play some tricks, I'm afraid I won't be able to hide it from you Lu Zhengnan at all. Rather than this, it is better to tell Lu Zhengnan that as for whether to choose or not, it is Lu Zhengnan's own business. ”
Lu Renxin said it! These wise men of ancient times really lived up to their reputation, why didn't they come across a few fuel-saving lamps? Perhaps because of the progress of the times and the change of tactics, some things in ancient times may not be used, but really good strategists know how to start from the hearts of the people, and this is not a change.
And now Pang Tong obviously took advantage of the idea that he wanted to touch the cavalry of the Western Regions, and by the way, he could also bring Guan Yu and Zhang Fei with him, so that he could be quiet in Hanzhong for a few days. But then again, Lu Ren now has no soldiers or generals in Hanzhong, and if he takes advantage of Guan Yu and Zhang Fei's mentality of wanting to avenge Liu Bei, he can get a military force because of this.
And the key question here lies in how Lu Ren plays the "Hatred Transfer Great/Law". Have fun, everything is easy to say; If you can't play it, it's a lot of trouble. But Lu Ren knew that if he went to play this hand, Pang Tong would definitely help by the side. There is no way, the strength of Guan Yu and Zhang Fei in Liu Bei's group is indeed too headache.
After thinking about this, Lu Ren looked at Pang Tong, and Pang Tong also looked at Lu Ren at the right time. How to say it, the situation at this time is simply two people with their own ghosts, exchanging a tacit look.
The next conversation didn't smell like oil and salt, after all, although Lu Ren thought of some things, they couldn't do it right away. Some preparations are not done well, and if they are done, they will definitely be smashed. Besides, Liu Bei has just left!
Just chatting like this, the person sent by Zhao Yun also arrived, and Lu Rendao agreed without thinking too much. In Lu Ren's opinion, Zhao Yun was also carrying out Liu Bei's orders by doing this, so as not to cause Lu Ren to encounter some difficulties.
――――――――――――――――――――
At night, Lu Ren came to Zhao Yun's residence in Hanzhong. originally thought that Zhao Yun was just asking Lu Ren to drink a little wine or something, but the actual situation made Lu Ren take a little aback, because before he had drunk a few glasses of wine, Zhao Yun asked people to bring out some messy things for Lu Ren to see.
"Brother Zilong, this is ......"
Zhao Yun pointed to the bits and pieces placed in the courtyard: "I collected them in the first battle that day." ”
Lu Ren was stunned for a moment. Do you know what's on the ground in the yard? Three sets of horse armor different from the Central Plains style, more than a dozen different types of weapons, and then there are some bits and pieces. And seeing this, Lu Ren couldn't help but say in his heart, could it be that our Brother Yun has a hobby of grabbing things on the battlefield? And the most famous one is Lao Cao's Qinghong (font problem, that just word can't be typed) sword. So Lu Ren couldn't help but think maliciously in his heart that if Zhao Yun was thrown into some online novels, would Zhao Yun be an expert in fighting monsters and grabbing equipment?
However, what Lu Ren didn't understand the most was that Liu Bei was defeated and retreated at that time, and it stands to reason that he should not have the time and mood to clean up the battlefield, but soon Lu Ren reacted, Liu Beijun was indeed defeated and retreated at that time, but it was a steady retreat after stabilizing the formation, so it was normal for some people who died in the battle formation to be stripped off. And to be honest, in those days, this kind of armor that was all iron was a valuable item, and of course you had to pick it up quickly if you had some conditions. To put it mildly, these dozens or hundreds of pounds of iron are worth hundreds of dollars even if they are thrown away from the scrap recycling station, so why don't you pick them up.
It was far away, only saying that Zhao Yun asked Lu Ren to take a look at the things on the ground, and Lu Ren understood that Zhao Yun wanted to let himself know a little more about the Parthian heavy armored cavalry, so he stopped being verbose at the moment, and walked closer to carefully examine these things by the light of the fire.
The three sets of horse armor actually have a lot of damage, but there is no problem with the overall form. Lu Ren has developed Yizhou for many years, and steel smelting has always been the top priority in development, so he is also quite experienced in these things. Now that he took a closer look at the material of the horse armor, Lu Ren shook his head gently, because the quality of these three sets of horse armor was average, and it would not be possible to put it on the table if it was shelved to the end of Yizhou. Judging from some other places, these three sets of horse armor should be some years old, and it may be that the Parthian noble knights with slightly worse family conditions have passed on a few things, at least Lu Ren found some obvious new iron patches on the horse armor, and they didn't play very well.
Lu Ren didn't care much about such iron armor. With the musket currently used in Yizhou, it can easily penetrate the protection within a certain distance. Not even a musket, even some crossbows with large kinetic energy produced in Yizhou can shoot through. Although Liu Bei's own weapons and equipment cannot be compared with Lu Ren, Lu Ren has supported a lot of guys to Liu Bei, so Liu Bei's troops are not too much of a loss in this regard. Besides, this kind of Parthian "iron can" is only a few after all, and the equipment level of the large army that Liu Bei or Cao Pi really has to face is just like that.
Don't think that Lu Ren's things are meaningless. In fact, if you look at these things carefully, you can basically understand the level of equipment of the other side, and the importance of the level of weapons and equipment in the war is needless to say. Turning back to Lu Ren's body, Lu Ren's biggest worry was that due to Wan'er's intervention, the equipment level of Anxi and Guishuang would rise by a few steps, so Huaxia's side would suffer too much in the battle. But now it seems that it should be a little too worried, after all, Wan'er arrived at the rest of the time is so little, and compared to the two vast Central Asian empires, many things are not spread out so quickly.
After reading Ma Kai and looking at a few more weapons, Lu Ren's face changed. The material of the horse armor was not very good before, but the material of several weapons was different, at least Lu Ren could see that the material level of these weapons had surpassed Liu Bei and Cao Pi by a lot, and in some places it was on par with what was produced in Yizhou.
In fact, the level of iron smelting in Central Asia itself was higher than that of China in this era, and it took a lot of effort to strengthen the level of weapons during the Han Wu Emperor's period. In the late Han Dynasty and the Three Kingdoms period, due to years of turmoil, the productivity of China fell sharply, and the iron smelting level of Cao, Liu and Sun was somewhat unable to keep up...... To put it mildly, if it weren't for the existence of this situation, Lu Ren's arms business would not be so easy.
As for the rest side, there have been many years of turmoil in rest, but the background of the people is there, and if Wan'er controls Guishuang, Guishuang is at its peak, then Wan'er can use the more productive Guishuang to get some things out in Guishuang first.
Because of this, Lu Ren was determined to take down Wan'er as soon as possible. With Wan'er behind the scenes, Rest and Guishuang are a bit like the characters or forces in many games that are slow but full of stamina, and they really have time to develop slowly, and the trouble is definitely big......
