The Three Kingdoms

"No!"

Zhuge Liang quickly shook his head and said, "My lord, now Lu Meng of the Wu Kingdom has put a large army of troops in Peicheng, and there is Lu Bu watching over him. Once the second general leaves Peicheng, Lu Bu will probably not let go of this opportunity. Take Peicheng and directly attack Jianjia Pass, once Peicheng is lost, we will lose a strong gate, which will not be good for our future battles!"

Guan Yu and Zhang Fei in Peicheng can rest assured. Zhang Fei alone has a violent personality, easy to attack but not defensive, and he will never be able to defend Peicheng.

"But in the hands of a certain family, Yun Chang is the only one who can trust and have the ability to control all soldiers and horses!"

Liu Bei also understands this truth, but he has a shortage of talents. Don't look at him recruiting many generals from the Shu Kingdom. He dares to use these fools, but he dare not rely on them.

If you can betray Liu Zhang, you can betray him in the future.

He sighed faintly: "Now in the hands of a certain family, Pang Xi can be regarded as a useful general, but he wants to guard Jiange and keep an eye on Hanzhong. Wen Chang and Shuzhi are also generals, but whether they are Experience and qualifications are far from enough to lead an army!"

"My lord, we still have a talent in our hands, why don't we use it?" Zhuge Liang thought for a while, and said as if pointing.

"Talent?"

Hearing this, Liu Bei had a flash of inspiration, and asked tentatively, "Kong Ming, are you talking about Zhang Renhu?"

After Zhang Ren entered the city, he held the position of a general of the Shu Kingdom, but he didn't care about anything. What he insisted on every day was the safety of Liu Xun, the king of Shu.

Perhaps in Zhang Ren's heart today, nothing is more important than Liu Xun's safety.

"That's right!"

Zhuge nodded and said: "Zhang Ren is one of the best generals, and this man has a high prestige in the Shu Kingdom, and his ability to lead troops is beyond ordinary generals. Most importantly, he still has tens of thousands of loyal main forces on the west side. Horses are the best basis for us to train new troops and recruit soldiers, if we can recruit him, within a year or so, we will have [-] elite new troops!"

"But this person is only loyal to Liu Xun, why would a certain family use it?" Liu Bei snorted coldly.

Although Zhang Ren entered the city alone, tens of thousands of soldiers and horses under his command were still staring at the western suburbs. This is why Liu Bei was afraid and did not dare to kill him. Otherwise, Liu Bei would have killed him and Liu Xun as soon as he entered the city.

Although Liu Bei has already controlled the overall situation of the Shu Kingdom, he does not want to have a Supreme Emperor on his head. Even if the Supreme Emperor is a puppet, he is very upset in his heart.

If it weren't for Zhang Ren, he could have justifiably ascended the throne without hiding behind the scenes, so he somewhat hated Zhang Ren in his heart.

"My lord, can a little king of Shu compare to the supreme position in the world?" Zhuge Liang asked.

"A certain family understands what you mean, but a certain one still has some doubts, will he listen to us?"

Liu Bei sighed: "For him, Zhang Ren, a certain family has always been on guard. After all, in today's Shu Kingdom, the only one who can threaten us is him. If we don't suppress him, we must reuse him. A certain family is unwilling. And can't!"

"My lord, the biggest danger of the Shu Kingdom is not in the land of Shu, nor Zhang Ren. To put it bluntly, even if Zhang Ren's tens of thousands of soldiers and horses are rebellious, it will not be able to deal with our current strength. Our greatest danger is always Wu. country!"

Zhuge Liang said earnestly: "If we can't survive the battle of Wu State entering Sichuan in the future, everything we have now will become nothingness, so now the most important thing for us is to gather all the available people and soldiers of Shu Kingdom, and strengthen Shu Kingdom. The power of the country's soldiers and horses, to deal with the Wu country!

No one should be let go, even if it is an adventure, he must be used. Zhang Ren is not only a handsome talent, but also a titan. In the future when we fight Wu Guo, he will definitely play a key role.

If the lord uses him well, he will be the sharpest knife in our hands, a knife to fight against the Wu Kingdom! "

"But Kong Ming, you have to think about it. If he regains control of the military power of the Shu Kingdom, will he turn against a certain family?" Liu Bei asked worriedly: "It will be counterproductive. Do we still have a civil war?"

"will not!"

Zhuge Liang said confidently: "My lord, when Zhang Ren entered Chengdu, the country of Shu had already fallen to the ground. In today's Shu country, it is not the lord who cannot take charge of the overall situation. A little Liu Xun, the lord supports him, he is the one who is the king of Shu." Wang, a child can't stabilize the overall situation at all, which is why Zhang Ren entered the city alone, as long as the lord does not keep Liu Xun's life and position, he will not rebel against the lord!"

Liu Zhang is dead, and in a few years Zhang Renzhong will be loyal to Liu Xun, who is full of jokes and doesn't understand anything.

Controlling Liu Xun is equivalent to controlling Zhang Ren.

"A certain family understands what you mean, that is, as long as we hold Liu Xun, it is equivalent to holding him Zhang Ren, and he will be used by us and conquer the Quartet for us!"

"That's right!"

Zhuge nodded: "Zhang Renke not only represents him alone, but also represents many loyal people in the Shu Kingdom. Soldiers like Yan Yan and Deng Xian all look at him as an example. If he doesn't move, it means that these people will stand up for us. Used!"

"Of course, there are also risks in this. If Zhang Ren really turns against him, we will inevitably have a civil war, and the Kingdom of Shu will be completely over!" Zhuge Liang added.

"This is a gamble. We bet the hope of the Kingdom of Shu in the hands of Zhang Ren. If Zhang Ren is of one mind with us, the Kingdom of Shu may fight against Wu Guobingfeng in the future. If Zhang Ren has two hearts, we will lose without a fight. !"

"That's right!" Zhuge nodded, "It depends on the master's decision!"

Liu Bei stood up and paced back and forth for half a moment before he made up his mind. He is not a person without courage. Now that he is facing such a heavy mountain in Wu State, he dares to do his best: "A certain family is in his Take a gamble on Zhang Ren!"

"My lord is wise!" Zhuge Liang took a fancy to Liu Bei's daring spirit.

Liu Bei quickly spread out a memorandum, picked up a pen and swiped to write.

"Pass down the king's decree, ordering the general Zhang Ren to patrol the four directions on behalf of the king, clean up the soldiers and horses everywhere, and wipe out the thieves in the four directions. Yu Jun has already stepped down from the post, and has the right to kill first and then play. In addition, in the outskirts of Chengdu, the general can establish the Chengdu General battalion, recruit soldiers and horses, and train new troops.”

After a while, Liu Bei stamped the big seal representing the King of Shu, handed it to Zhuge Liang, and said, "Kong Ming, a certain family can gamble on Zhang Ren, but they have to be prepared to assign him a lieutenant general!"

"I understand!" Zhuge Liangliang nodded.

"there's one more thing!"

A memorandum on Liu Bei's case was handed to him: "There is turmoil in the southern part of the Kingdom of Shu. Yong Kai took advantage of the fire to loot, beheaded the governors of two counties, separated Yizhou and Yongchang, and claimed to be the king of Yizhou. How should we deal with it?"

"He is not important, what is important is Meng Huo!"

Zhuge Liang looked at it and squinted his eyes slightly: "Although the Yong family is the surname of Yizhou County and the first family in the area, he does not have such a military force to separate himself as king, he relies on the king of Nanman.

Although Meng Huo is the leader of the Yi nationality, he has been influenced by Han culture since he was a child. He has the wildness of the foreign race and the scheming of the Han people. He pushed Yong Kai to be the boss, and if he bends over to be the second in command, he can tell that this person is no ordinary person! "

"It's really rare for a barbarian to have such a scheming plan!" Liu Bei gasped after hearing Zhuge Liang's analysis.

"According to Chen Deng's inquiring information, this person is the head of the family at the age of 15, and won the leader of the Nanman 20 Cave tribe when he was less than 36 years old. He is by no means a simple person!"

Zhuge Liang said lightly: "But this may not be a bad thing for us!"

"What do you mean by that?" Liu Bei didn't understand.

"My lord, the Wu army is also in Yizhou County. It's better to have Meng Huo blocking them than us sending troops ourselves!" Zhuge Liang's eyes brightened: "Wu Jun took advantage of our mutiny to enter Yizhou County. If Meng Huo hadn't blocked it, I'm afraid the southern part of our Shu Kingdom would have been captured by them!"

"It's a surprise for you to say that!"

Liu Bei nodded and said, "However, Yizhou County and Yongyongchang County are separated by the two of them. A certain family dare not!"

"The south is already barren. It's no pity to let them temporarily. Let them defend the Wu army in Jiaozhou for us. It's also a good thing. When we have strength, we can take it back!"

Zhuge Liang said.

"That's right, the most important thing for us now is to deal with Wu. We need to be patient with all the forces that can stop Wu Jun!" Liu Bei nodded.

His temperament is originally tough, and this matter can still be tolerated.

"Since this is the case, we will control the barbarians with barbarians!"

Liu Bei said coldly: "Give him a legitimate title!"
