Chapter 847 Retreating to Hanzhong

Zhao Jiliang shook his head and said: "It's useless, Wei Renpu's life and death have no effect on the battle situation. Even if Wei Renpu dies, there will be other people on top. Anyway, their only task is to attack Fengzhou. This task is too simple. Who will be the coach?" It's all the same. Now the key is Zhao Kuangyin's side, but Zhao Kuangyin has recovered his skills and returned to the barracks. He can go to Hanzhong to assassinate any officials at any time, but you can't assassinate Zhao Kuangyin who is in the barracks. That's the difference."

"Our family understands." Sun Fangzheng sighed: "Thinking about it carefully, it turns out that only the Taibao's method is feasible. If we forcefully defend the four prefectures, even Hanzhong may be lost in the end. If Hanzhong is lost, the Kingdom of Shu There is no longer a day to leave Sichuan, so it is most important to defend Hanzhong. We can take back the land of the four states at any time."

Zhao Jiliang nodded: "That's right. Although the defense of the four states is very good, it is full of loopholes. Wu Yanhongyu can protect the four states with his own bravery, but after his death, he will never find a martial arts so strong that he can defend the four states." People from the four states, so this line of defense has to be lost. But I really didn't expect Zhao Kuangyin's military skills to be so advanced, and now I have another strong enemy in Shuchuan."

"Although Zhao Kuangyin has certain attainments in martial arts and art of war, it is too much to say that he is a strong enemy. Didn't he almost die in my hands last time?"

Zhao Jiliang said: "It's almost a long way. Guo Wei almost died on the battlefield hundreds of times. In the end, he came back to life again and again and became a great success. The big man Liu Chengyou doesn't know how to cherish talents, but he always goes out of his way. Make things difficult for Guo Wei, thinking that he has the heart of disobedience. If Guo Wei wanted to rebel, he would have rebelled as early as Liu Zhiyuan's death, so it would be his turn to be emperor, right? Guo Wei was forced to rebel and proclaim himself emperor. Only then can we seize the opportunity to seize the four states. In fact, for so many years, Guo Wei has been a rock on the top of Dashu, and now that Guo Wei is dead, I am afraid that Zhao Kuangyin will become another rock."

Sun Fangzheng said: "The words of the Taibao are true. It is appropriate to compare Guo Wei to the stone on the head of Shu. If it were not for Guo Wei's bravery, our army would have been able to march straight into the Central Plains. Will Zhao Kuangyin be the next one?" It's hard to say about Shitou, but our family would like to ask, doesn't the Taibao feel that you have neglected someone?"

"You mean Master Zong Xin?"

"Exactly."

Zhao Jiliang said with a smile: "Master Zongxin is definitely not a stone on the head of Shu Kingdom, but a precious knife piercing into the heart of Shu Kingdom. As long as Master Zong Xin gently moves his hand, the whole Kingdom of Shu will perish. Master Xin is now in the hinterland of the Kingdom of Shu. He can take His Majesty's life at any time. He is the most terrifying person. However, Master Zong Xin is also the person who needs to worry the least, because he promised not to take His Majesty's life, so he will definitely not do this Do it, as long as there is no idiot to attack Master Zong Xin, I believe he will leave the Kingdom of Shu peacefully."

Sun Fangzheng also nodded. He understood Zong Xin's temper very well, as long as they said something, he would definitely do it, including Lei Hong, who has always had a bad reputation.Because these people no longer need to lie, and there is no need to go against their hearts.

This situation is like asking an ordinary person to pick up a water glass. He will not deliberately say that he cannot pick it up, because his strength can pick up the water glass at any time, or put it down at any time, so this person does not need to worry about the water glass. lie.

People like Zong Xin, even if they want to kill someone, they will not deliberately deny it, even if this person hears it, it doesn't matter.Because even if he heard it, it was useless. At most, he was prepared to make it easier for him to strike, so that maybe the whole family would not be killed.

Zong Xin's most insignificant strength is his martial arts, but his martial arts has also reached the most powerful group of people in the world today. As for other strengths...you can scare yourself once you say it.Lei Hong's third son, two businessmen who are incomparably rich, plus his military skills and ability to pinch and count, which one is not scary?
Sun Fangzheng said: "Taibao, our family immediately ordered all the soldiers and civilians in the four states to retreat to Hanzhong and surrender all four states to the Zhou army. That's enough, right?"

"Boss, can you take a hard trip, and you can go to the four states to convey this message to the general. Only you can go to the old man to rest assured. If you send someone to go, in case Zhao Kuangyin is intercepted on the way, he knows that we have to retreat. After the plan, he deliberately postponed the time for the retreat one by one, and then sent someone to forge a message or a forged letter to let the four states retreat separately, and he would organize the army to ambush one by one. Hanzhong City is also finished. In order to ensure safety, only Manager Gong went there personally. After all, the only person in Hanzhong who can escape Zhao Kuangyin and his subordinates is only Manager Sun. Apart from you, I don’t feel at ease sending anyone else.”

Sun Fangzheng nodded and said, "Taibao, our family is not afraid of hard work, as long as it is for the good of the Shu Kingdom. It's just that after our family leaves, if Zhao Kuangyin kills another carbine and then assassinates Mr. Taibao...the Kingdom of Shu cannot live without the Taibao my lord."

"Don't worry about this. I'm old and I'm just a useless old man. I don't know how long I can live. Don't delay anything because of me. If you delay this matter, I will die tomorrow. Then you are a sinner through the ages, you know? People like me who live an extra day to make money will not be afraid of assassins, so there is no need to worry about my safety."

Zhao Jiliang said so much, Sun Fangzheng couldn't say anything more, and it would be disloyal to say more, and it would be a disappointment to Zhao Jiliang's painstaking efforts.Anyway, I have said what I should say, and he has voluntarily voluntarily what results he has.It's not that he doesn't understand that Zhao Kuangyin is likely to come back. If Sun Fang wasn't by his side at that time, he would have died.

Sun Fangzheng really didn't expect that Zhao Jiliang could see life and death so thoroughly.But generally speaking, older people are less afraid of death, because they already know their results.It is indeed a blessing for Meng Chang to have such loyal ministers as Zhao Jiliang and Wu Yanhong Yu in the Kingdom of Shu. It is a pity that Meng Chang was frightened by Zong Xin a few years ago, and was fascinated by Hua Rui. up.

Now we have to give up the four states that we have finally won, and the entire Hanzhong defense line.Helpless, according to Zhao Taibao's analysis, if Zhao Kuangyin's art of war is really so strong, maybe he will really attack Hanzhong directly, and then he will not even be able to keep Hanzhong.

Sun Fangzheng said: "Then let's take a trip to our family. The Taibao should not live here, and change to a small house. It is better to let fewer people know, so as not to kill Zhao Kuangyin. And don't reveal that our family has been killed." Leave the news of Hanzhong, otherwise Zhao Kuangyin will come back and slaughter Hanzhong officials."

"Understood, you go. Be careful. If there is any danger, you retreat first, and don't worry about other people. Now you are the person with the highest martial arts in the Shu Kingdom, and you need to take the lead in many things. Anyway, you remember, except for Your Majesty. , You are the most important person in the entire Shu Kingdom. You can learn the art of war if you are not good at it, but it takes too long for those who are not good at martial arts to learn the art of war. If you retain your strength and defend Hanzhong, we, the Shu Kingdom, will have a chance."

"Follow the teachings."

Sun Fangzheng was very moved, turned around and left the Taibao Mansion.He had to go to the four states to transfer all the soldiers and civilians back to Hanzhong. Only by giving up the four states could Hanzhong be kept.This is also a plan to abandon the car to protect the handsome. Under such circumstances, there is no other way.

Zhao Kuangyin was really powerful. He not only entered Hanzhong and directly killed a large number of officials, but also lured our army into deep traps and severely damaged our cavalry troops.Without cavalry, it would be very difficult to reinforce the four states.What's more, the four states are indeed far away. If the enemy is outside the four states, Hanzhong can send troops to reinforce it at any time is a powerful defense system, but as long as the enemy brings soldiers into the area between the four states and Hanzhong, this defense system will collapse instantly.

No wonder Zhao Jiliang thought that this defense system could no longer be used after Wu Yanhongyu's death. If Wu Yanhongyu did not die, whoever dared to enter between Sizhou and Hanzhong would immediately lead his troops to wipe out this group of people.But without Wu Yanhongyu's command, and he doesn't know the art of war, even a strong martial arts is useless. It is impossible for one person to defeat an entire army.

In fact, when Sun Fangzheng had no contact with the military before, he always believed that high-strength martial arts represented everything.It was because Zong Xin was so strong in martial arts that Meng Chang was so frightened that he dared not go out of the palace, but it was only after getting in touch with the military that Zong Xin was truly frightening.Scaring Meng Chang was just a small skill of his, and as a result, the entire Shu Kingdom has been in a passive state.

"It's a pity, it's a pity... If the two old generals Wu Yan, Hongyu and Zhao Jiliang can be younger, no matter how strong the Great Zhou army is, they will not dare to touch an inch of our land in Shu. I will not support Guo Wei all the way to ascend the throne and proclaim the emperor. He has long lived in the Kingdom of Shu with Huarui. There will be no such troublesome things. Zhao Kuangyin will not become a general of the Zhou Dynasty to attack the Kingdom of Shu. It is also my fault that I have no skills, except for martial arts Nothing but…”

After Sun Fangzheng went through all this, he felt more and more that Meng Chang was an idiot who could not be supported. If he hadn't been obsessed with sex for a while, Shu would have already dominated the Central Plains by now, and he could also rule the world.I gave up too much for a woman.

Sun Fang is just an eunuch, and he doesn't understand what Meng Chang's emotion is.But in Sun Fangzheng's view, stamens are actually dispensable to Meng Chang, and Meng Chang doesn't want to live without the stamens.This is the root cause of Meng Chang's impulsiveness.

There is no way, what needs to be done has to be done.Sun Fangzheng didn't have much hope. He only had one nephew, Sun Cheng. Sun Cheng was married and his child was about to be born. This was Sun Fangzheng's happiest thing.The most important thing is that Sun Cheng doesn't have any greed, he just wants to live a peaceful life, as long as Sun Cheng is happy, he will have a future even if he dies.

What's more, the mission this time was not dangerous. Sun Fangzheng drove his horse out of Hanzhong City at night and went to Chengzhou first, because Chengzhou was the closest.Let the troops of the two states join forces, and then return to Hanzhong together.Then you only need to go to Fengzhou and let Fengzhou retreat, because Qinzhou's troops are already in Fengzhou, and it is meaningless to continue to resist. The only way is to directly retreat and defend Hanzhong.
