In Dawan Pass, Shen Tu Guan had an expression of disbelief after receiving the information. He had never thought that the crippled military counselor from Western Shu was so brave. He really dared to tear up the agreement and lead his troops across the river.
"Can you see clearly? How many thousands of people are there?"
"It's too foggy to tell the exact number of people, but there must be between 20,000 and 30,000. These Shu soldiers have all gone north. If I'm not wrong, they most likely want to join forces with the rebels and capture Huzhou first!" General, we can’t wait any longer!”
Shen Tuguan was silent for a while, not fully convinced. But at this moment, another beacon tower sent information. The content in the intelligence was almost the same, so Shu people crossed the river, and there were Shu soldiers all over the mountains and plains.
At this moment, Shen Tuguan gritted his teeth and wished he could immediately send an order to lead troops into Huzhou. But inexplicably, he remembered something again.
"By the way, I heard from you that more and more scouts have been dispatched from Dingdong Pass in the past few days?"
"Exactly, after the lame man arrived, for some reason, more and more people were involved in the investigation in Xishu."
"No." Shen Tuguan looked horrified, "I almost fell into the trap. This lame man's intention is probably to take Dayuan Pass. This is to lure the tiger away from the mountain. If I lead a large army into Huzhou, the defense of Dayuan Pass will be empty, wouldn't it? Did he play into the hands of the lame man?"
"Shen Tujiu, you take 30,000 people to Huzhou first. Remember, you must defend first. You are no match for a lame man."
A young general from his family came out, nodded, received the military talisman and hurried out.
Shen Tuguan rubbed his forehead, feeling extremely confused now. Not only him, but no one in the whole world could imagine how this lame man dared!
I'm afraid that the little military advisor in Changyang will also be shocked.
…
Bang.
In the study room of Changyang Palace, after seeing the secret letter, Chang Sheng stood up in shock and accidentally knocked over the inkstone. The information received today is really shocking.
Because of the lameness, his eyes remained on Huzhou. He even wanted to guess the purpose of the lame man coming to Dingzhou. Fortunately, it turned out that they were going to take advantage of the fog to launch a surprise attack on Huzhou.
"Tens of thousands of Shu soldiers, with the cooperation of the Hebei rebels, have already crossed the river." Chang Sheng's voice was cold, "But Shen Tu Guan did not dare to send a large army. He was worried that it was a lame man's plan to divert the tiger away from the mountain, and that he would make a surprise attack on Dawan Pass. .”
Huang Zhizhou, who was beside him, also frowned, "This lame man is so brave. If this happens, the previous truce agreement will be completely torn up."
"This lame man is really brave." Chang Sheng took a breath and kept thinking hard about countermeasures.
"Don't worry, military advisor. General Shentu is a famous general in the world, so there will definitely be no problem. The lord's army is not far away, and he will come back immediately for reinforcements even if there is no chance." Huang Zhizhou comforted him.
"It's still inappropriate. I've always been familiar with the lame man's methods. Although Shentu Guan did nothing wrong, I always feel that sooner or later he will fall into the lame man's trap. If so, another large army should be sent into Huzhou to fight with Shentu Guan is the horn of each other."
"Dr. Zhizhou, do you have anyone to choose?" Chang Sheng raised his head.
"Military advisor, Zhao Long, the legitimate son of the Zhao family, is a man of great ability. We should not let him lead the army."
"Then Zhao Long has a violent temper, how can he command an army?"
"Otherwise, the head of the Wu family has always been skilled in military tactics and strategies, and is known as the eleventh famous general."
"The head of an aristocratic family is not wise because he cares too much about profit." Chang Sheng hesitated and looked at Huang Zhizhou next to him, "Zhizhou, why don't you recommend yourself?"
Huang Zhizhou shook his head in shock, "The military advisor is joking, I am a surrendered general from Xishu. I should avoid suspicion at this time. How can I command an army?"
"Why avoid suspicion?" Chang Sheng spat out, his brows furrowed, probably deep in thought. Not only him, but also his lord understood the truth.
It is necessary to reuse aristocratic families, but also, if the world is conquered in the future, these aristocratic families cannot be allowed to become the most powerful ones. The most taboo among them is that he has great military achievements and is loved by the soldiers of Beiyu.
Therefore, whether it is Shen Tuguan or Jiang Meng, the two marshals of the East and West Roads, leaving aside their identities as famous generals, there is no big family background behind these two people.
The same was true for Huang Zhizhou in front of him. Very smart, he only married a small car family.
"Zhizhou, how about you take 30,000 black-armored troops into Huzhou?"
Huang Zhizhou hurriedly knelt down, "Of course I have no problem. The military advisor also knows that I, Huang Zhizhou, have no way out. Besides, I am not from Shu in the first place. But the military advisor should understand that if this happens, those aristocratic families in the inner city will have to fight again. It’s a great time to scold the military advisor in front of the lord.”
"I, Huang Zhizhou, was first demoted as a general, but now I have only made a small contribution. I am in charge of an army alone. I'm afraid some people won't accept it."
"But you do have the ability." Chang Sheng lowered his head, closed his eyes and thought hard. But when he looked up again, he had clearly returned to normal.
"Zhizhou, just go ahead and hand over the military power when you return to Changyang. Zhizhou, don't let down your lord's expectations. I, Chang Sheng, also understand that you, Huang Zhizhou, are a man of great talent and strategy, no better than Jiang What a difference."
For a moment, Huang Zhizhou's eyes were filled with tears and he couldn't stop crying. "I, Huang Zhizhou, would like to issue a military order. If I can't make any achievements here, I will raise my head and see you!"
…
Two days later, in the heavy fog outside Dingbeiguan, Dongfang Jing wrapped himself in a robe. Then, he opened the secret message in front of him with some worry, looked at it, and slowly became serious.
"As expected. Both Chang Sheng and Shen Tu Guan were too cautious."
"Military advisor, what's wrong with you?" Chai Zong asked anxiously.
Dongfang Jing's face suddenly turned cold, "I, Huang Zhizhou, the rebel general of Western Shu, personally led 30,000 reinforcements to come to Huzhou."
"What! How dare this traitorous thief show up! If he is in front of me, I will chop him with a knife!" Chai Zong's eyes were about to burst. Not only him, but also many Shu generals nearby were filled with hatred.
Everyone in Shu in the world hates Huang Zhizhou.
"Please ask the military advisor to make a plan to kill this traitor!" Chai Zong knelt down and begged for orders.
"Of course, I will find a way..." Dongfang Jing nodded.
As soon as Dongfang Jing finished speaking, a large group of Shu generals were extremely happy. Everyone was sharpening their swords and clamoring to kill the traitor general.
Dongfang Jing turned his head, and suddenly an inexplicable sadness arose in his heart. But no matter what, the trip to Dingzhou is about half the success.
