Looking at it now, Zhang Ren and others are very unfriendly, and the best strategy may be difficult to realize, but the middle strategy is still promising. For example, Liu Ba, who has frequently shown favor, is an object to fight for!

If I remember correctly, Zhang Ren, Huang Quan, Deng Xian, and Ling Bao are all descendants of Bashu, but Liu Ba is the surname of Jingzhou-Lingling County, which happens to be Liu Bei's territory!

A foreigner, mixed among the locals, will inevitably be isolated, bullied, and resentful. If he wins over by himself, he has a great chance of success!

........................

"Mr. Qi, General Liu sent someone to bring charcoal fire, and a sumptuous meal!"

"Oh, great, let me thank General Liu!"

"Sir, please stop, the governor has ordered you not to go out at will!"

After a while, several soldiers came in, carrying two large basins of charcoal fire, as well as chicken, duck, fish, fine wine from Sichuan, and brocade quilts!

This made Sun Gan very happy. The improvement of his life was second to none. Liu Ba sent someone to deliver things to show that he had the heart to surrender. This is called throwing stones to ask for directions!

I wanted to thank you in person, and discussed the details by the way, but I was stopped when I walked to the door. It turned out that Zhang Ren sent soldiers to seal off the small courtyard. ?

Chapter 1541 An Excellent Messenger!

After eating and drinking enough, he sat in the bathtub and took a hot bath, changed into clean clothes, and at nightfall, the horses and horses were exhausted all the way, but Sun Qian did not rest, but quietly opened the window and door, peeping surrounding situation.

An excellent envoy is also an excellent emissary, who should use the opportunity of a mission to find out the other party's details, instigate rebellion against generals, investigate military situations...or even assassinate important figures!

Ordinary people conduct investigations during the day, because the visual effect is good; but experts prefer to investigate the enemy's situation at night, the dark night can protect themselves, and they can see more things clearly!

Jianmen Pass traverses the valley and expands to the peaks on both sides. The interior area is quite large. There are more than 2 garrisons, the same number of people, and some merchants who want money and life. The houses are also built along the mountain. Ups and downs, patchwork and chic!

The small courtyard where Sun Qian lives is located on a hillside on the east side. The geographical location is relatively high, and there are no shelters around.

The common people in the Han Dynasty worked at sunrise and rested at sunset. Only in the military camps were bonfires lit, which could keep out the cold, light up, and prevent wild animals. They could also cook food for the soldiers who were watching the night.

There are obviously more bonfires on the west side of Jianmen Pass than on the east side, which means that the main force of the defenders is stationed on the east side, and the ordnance, grain and grass warehouses are also nearby!

There are also faint fires flickering in the hidden places of the peaks on both sides, indicating that a beacon tower has been built, guarded by soldiers day and night, and there may be caves for hiding soldiers. If you sneak attack Jianmen Pass, you must be careful in these places!

There are also constantly moving torches, which are soldiers patrolling, and you can judge their number and patrol route... The defense is really tight!

………………

Sun Qian looked at it for more than an hour, scouted a lot of information, kept it firmly in his heart, and was going to go back and draw a sketch and hand it over to General Zhao Yun!

There is little hope of persuading Zhang Ren. Nine times out of ten, troops will be sent to attack. With the help of this defense map, the attack will be able to get twice the result with half the effort, and save many soldiers and horses!

The world only sees the envoys wearing fancy clothes, riding in four carriages, enjoying banquets... wagging their lips and drumming their tongues, lobbying everywhere, but they don't know that they are secretly shouldering a major mission!

"Fanfan gourd leaves, pick them to prosper, a gentleman has wine, taste it at his own discretion,"

"If you have a rabbit's head, burn it with a cannon; if a gentleman has wine, offer it according to your words;"

…………

While checking, Sun Qian suddenly pricked up his ears, and he heard the sound of silk and bamboo, and there were women singing faintly. It was the famous "Book of Songs-Xiaoya-Huye", the lyrics and music specially for welcoming guests!

Looking around, I found a brightly lit place in the northwest corner of Jianmen Pass, with melodious sounds and hearty laughter. It was obvious that someone was holding a banquet and having a great time!

Zhang Renzhi's army is very strict, and his subordinates are not allowed to drink alcohol privately, let alone hold banquets, unless it is for official business, such as welcoming distinguished guests and envoys!

This is even more strange, if it is an envoy from Chengdu, it is completely possible to have a banquet during the day, the place is chosen in the general's mansion, or on the city gate tower, and they can enjoy singing and dancing while discussing matters!

Why did the night banquet be held in a corner? When Sun Qian entered the city during the day, he happened to pass by that location.

Things are so abnormal, I am afraid there is only one explanation, that is, the guests who are invited to the banquet have special identities, and nine out of ten are the envoys of Cao Jun!

Xiao Yi is extremely smart, so he naturally knows the importance of the Golden Bull Way, so he will definitely send envoys to persuade Zhang Ren, Huang Quan and others to submit to him. Moreover, he is powerful and controls the Han court, so the price he will offer must be extremely high!

But before the change of flag, Zhang Ren and others were still generals in the middle of Shu, and they didn't like to receive them in an upright manner, so they chose to drink and have fun with the envoys of Cao Jun in a remote place at night, and discuss the matter of surrender by the way. It seems that the two sides talked very happily !

"Too bad, if Jinniu Dao Tianxian and fifty thousand Shu soldiers fall into Xiao Yi's hands, it will be very detrimental to my lord!

We must think of a way to prevent Zhang Ren and others from negotiating with Cao Jun's envoy, but how to stop it... Deliberately killed the sea turtle, and lacked the dragon sword in his hand! "

As an envoy, one should not be wise, but more courageous. Sun Qian's first reaction when he learned that the envoy of Cao Jun was coming was to draw his sword and cut off the opponent's head!

Just imagine, if Cao Jun's envoy died at Jianmen Pass, Xiao Yi would be furious, and he would turn his anger on Zhang Ren and others. The latter had no choice but to submit to Liu Bei's army.

There is a precedent for this kind of thing. When Banchao was sent to the Western Regions to persuade the king of Shanshan to attach himself to the great Han, he did not expect that the Huns also sent envoys to make the same request and threatened them with force. The king of Shanshan was in a dilemma and had a tendency Signs of the Huns too!

Seeing that the situation was not good, Ban Chao led 36 entourages and rushed into the Huns camp in the middle of the night, beheaded two or 300 people, and even beheaded the Huns envoy with his own hands. I had no choice but to submit to the big man obediently!

From then on, the envoys of the Han family traveled all over the world, and they had to be prepared to kill people, sometimes more than the power of words. Sun Qian wanted to imitate the ancients and killed the envoys of Cao Jun with one sword, but after repeated thinking, he found that he really did not That ability!

Ban Gu joined the army with a pen, and he was a talent with both civil and military skills. The 36 followers under his command were also one of the best warriors in a hundred. They could ride strong horses, draw hard bows, and wield big knives.

Sun Qian had Ban Gu's literary talents, but no other martial arts. The sword on his waist was hardly stained with blood, and there were no warriors around him. There were only a dozen old servants, and their skills were not as good as his own!

With this little manpower, I'm afraid you won't be able to rush out of the gate, and you won't be able to find Cao Jun's envoy if you rush out, and if you find it, you won't be able to kill him!

The envoys sent by the ghost-faced Xiao Lang are by no means ordinary people, Mi Heng, Jiang Gan, Wu Zhi... no matter which one comes, he is no match for him, what should he do?

It can't be ignored, otherwise Zhang Ren and others surrendered to Cao Jun, and they might cut off their own heads and dedicate them to Xiao Yi's tent to claim credit, then everything would be over!

"Calm down! Calm down! - There must be a way. You must leave this small courtyard, otherwise you will just sit there waiting to die. How do you leave?"

"Come here, bring all the clothes and quilts, and the leftover wine, let's fight!"

…………

The dog jumps over the wall in a hurry, and the person is anxious to be wise. Sun Qian walked around the house more than ten times, and finally thought of a good way. He has no power to kill, but he can kill with a knife!

So he ordered a few servants to gather all the combustibles they could find in a corner of the house, including the books they brought with them, poured a jar of strong wine, and finally ignited it with charcoal fire...

"It's not good, it's on fire, come and put out the fire!"

"Help, let's run for our lives!"

…………

The fire quickly spread and ignited the whole house. Sun Qian and the others shouted loudly while continuing to throw things inside. It happened to be windy tonight... Thick smoke was billowing, fire snakes were running around, and the surrounding houses were It was ignited, and it was extremely obvious in the dark night, and it also alarmed many people.

"It's in the water! --Hurry up and call someone for help, and then notify the generals!"

…………

The guards were the first to react and tried to rush in to put out the fire. The patrol team also ran over, but the fire was too big for people to get close to. Get water to put out the fire, but there is no wellhead nearby.

It turned out that the small courtyard was located on a hillside, with black rocks at its feet, and it was impossible to dig a well to get water. Usually, people went to the river below the mountain to draw water. As for the little water in the water tank, it was not enough to fight the fire!
