"General Zhang, we meet again."
"Yes, we just met. I didn't expect to meet again. We are really destined. General Zhao."
"You and I have known each other for half our lives, each has his own master, and we have met on the battlefield many times. But I didn't expect that this encounter would be here."
Listening to the conversation between the two, if you didn't look at their identities, you would have thought it was a reunion of old friends.
In prison, Zhao Yun looked at the tired Zhang He. There was not much expression of joy on his face, but he had mixed emotions. He sighed: "General Zhang, you are defeated today."
"Yes, I lost." Zhang He raised his head and sighed helplessly: "Since I surrendered to Prime Minister Cao, you and I have fought four times, and every time I was defeated and I ran away."
"In the past, it was just General Zhang who was good at hiding his clumsiness." Zhao Yun knew Zhang He's strength very well and said: "In terms of strategy, martial arts, and talents, you and I are equal. However, in every battle, I fight with all my strength, Zhang He. The general cherishes his body."
Zhang He really didn't expect that he would be a prisoner in his old age. What a trick of fate.
Although he knew that the Shu Han would not kill him, or even deliberately abuse him, they would most likely put him under house arrest and have people guard him, not allowing him to communicate with the outside world, and not returning him to Wei.
I'm afraid that I will have to live alone for the rest of my life.
Zhao Yun waved his hand, and the soldiers served food.
Zhang He looked calm, looking at the steaming food and the fragrant wine, then looked at Zhao Yun, and suddenly sighed: "I didn't expect that Zhuge Liang is so terrifying!"
"what for?"
"I originally thought that after the defeat of Jieting, the Shu army would have no strength to fight back and would definitely retreat. But I didn't expect that Zhuge Liang was as immovable as a mountain."
"I originally thought that after the capture of Jicheng, the Shu army would be defeated due to the lack of food supply! But I didn't expect that Zhuge Liang would fight back!"
"I originally thought that even if the Wei army was defeated, as long as Jieting was in hand, you would not be able to completely occupy Yongliang. But I didn't expect that you would sneak attack Jieting..."
"I originally thought that as long as I could escape, there would be hope for a comeback. But, Zhuge Liang is really powerful. He was able to deploy troops here in advance to make me fall into a trap!"
The more Zhang He talked, the angrier he became. He angrily picked up the food, threw it on the table, and cursed: "Zhuge Liang, a village man, actually figured out all this clearly!"
Zhao Yun remained silent.
"Now, I even feel that Zhuge Liang deliberately sent Ma Su to guard the street pavilion and deliberately lost to the Wei army. This Zhuge Liang is playing a big game and luring me into a trap step by step!"
"Actually, you guessed wrong." Zhao Yun explained: "Jieting was defeated. The Prime Minister knew that he could not capture Yongliang, so he wanted to withdraw his troops. Also, capturing Sanguan was not the Prime Minister's arrangement."
"Who is that?!"
"Jiang Tuo."
"Jiang Tuo? Is he the one who captured me alive?" Zhang He looked disdainful and said coldly: "Zilong, could it be that you are deliberately deceiving me? Then Jiang Tuo is a child with a yellow mouth, what kind of intelligence does he have?"
"Ha ha!"
Zhao Yun laughed wildly, shook his head and said with emotion: "He is not a childish kid, he is the benefactor of our Shu army. Do you know what great things he has done?"
"Didn't you just get me drunk and then capture me in a sneak attack?"
"More than that, it was he who dissuaded the Prime Minister from retreating. It was he who provided sufficient food and grass for the Shu army. It was he who helped the Shu army build equipment... It was he who foresaw the direction of the war in advance, conquered Sanguan, and captured you. .”
After hearing these words, Zhang He fell into a daze and looked at Zhao Yun in disbelief.
Is that boy able to accomplish these things?
How can this be?
"Perhaps the Shu army should not die, so God sent such a magical young man to help the Shu army!"
The more Zhao Yun talked, the more emotional he became.
"I see." Zhang He fell into silence. During this period of time, he had rehearsed the war countless times. He thought it was Zhuge Liang's miraculous calculation that prepared food and fodder in advance and made sufficient plans in advance.
Unexpectedly, it turned out to be the credit of this boy.
Zhao Yun looked at Zhang He and asked, "Are you willing to surrender to the Shu army?"
"hehe."
"You also know that now the Han Dynasty is weak and the world is in constant strife. The Prime Minister has inherited the late emperor's wishes and wants to revive the Han Dynasty, bring peace to the people, and restore the glory of the Han Dynasty. If you surrender to the Shu army, I will definitely ask the Prime Minister to give you You will be promoted to a higher position, and you will be rewarded and put to good use!"
Zhang He refused to accept this trick and shook his head and said: "No need to persuade anymore. Even if the Shu army won, it is still far inferior to the Wei state. Besides, the weather has changed, and the artifacts are easier to find, and they belong to virtuous people."
"My emperor Liu Chan is kind and loves the people, and he is a virtuous man."
"Haha, Liu Chan is cowardly and incompetent. He relies on Zhuge Liang for both military and internal affairs. How can he be called a virtuous person?"
Zhang He retorted and said: "On the other hand, my emperor, who is a divine, cultural, holy, and military man, and who inherits the great unification, is the one who truly has his destiny!"
Seeing this, Zhao Yun knew that he could not persuade the other party, so he gave up this plan and walked out of the prison. Wei Yan at the door asked: "General, how are you doing?"
"I plan to see the Prime Minister in person, inform him of what happened here, and ask him what to do next? Should we fight or retreat?"
"Okay, I'll go with the general."
"No need."
Zhao Yun shook his head and ordered: "Although our army has captured Sanguan now, we may have to face Cao Zhen's attack next. I plan to send you to Baoxie Road to hold off Cao Zhen's army and buy time for our army to recuperate. "
"how long it takes?"
"On the fifteenth day, after the fifteenth day, the Prime Minister will finish handling the affairs of the five counties of Yongliang, and then free up his troops to march here."
"As you command!"
Without further delay, Wei Yan led his soldiers to Baoxie Road to prepare for the deployment of troops. As for Zhao Yun, he also wanted to lead his troops to Yongliang, but before leaving, he called Jiang Tuo to his side.
He solemnly told: "Cao Zhen's army is stationed in Yi County. If he cannot attack Wei Yan's headquarters, I am worried that he will detour to Sanguan and enter Yongliang from Sanguan. You may be in danger in Sanguan."
"Haha, don't worry, in the worst case I'll abandon the city and run away!"
Zhao Yun laughed angrily. How to describe this guy in front of him? Intelligence is really smart, but when it comes to nonsense, it is also nonsense.
I couldn't help but point out: "Cao Wei's army is mostly cavalry and they are very fast. Even if you abandon the city and escape, where can you escape to?"
"Then escape to the mountains and forests and find a hidden place to hide."
"You think you are a bandit, how can it be so easy to hide!" Zhao Yun said helplessly: "If Cao Zhen leads his army to attack, you need to order the soldiers to raise dust everywhere in the city, dig more stoves, pretend that there are too many soldiers guarding the city, and force Cao Zhen doesn’t dare to attack the city!”
"Good idea, I've written it down!" Jiang Tuo gave a thumbs up.
