Weird Three Kingdoms

Chapter 2976
Huguan.

When Deng Li arrived at the main hall of the yamen, he found that there was not only Jia Qu alone, but also a relatively unfamiliar middle-aged man in the main hall.

"Come on, sit down. ’ Jia Qu beckoned, then pointed to the middle-aged man beside him and said, ‘Xuan’s and Chen’s. 』

He didn't say his name, but he said a surname.

Deng Li understood, knowing that Jia Qu meant that he didn't want him to get closer to this "Chen family", so Deng Li also saluted normally, and then sat down.

In fact, Deng Li also met this person once or twice from a distance, and generally knew that he was a person with Wensi, but because of the special nature of Wensi, he had no contact with this person.

However, the Xuan family and the Chen family have produced big names in the early years...

I don't know if it is a descendant.

Deng Li sat down.

Jia Qu didn't talk too much nonsense, and said directly: "General Zhang's place, a thief told him that if he failed, he drew his blade and struck him. He was stopped by the guards, but luckily he was not injured." 』

As he spoke, someone sent a report to Deng Li, and then asked, "What do you think of this matter?" 』

Deng Li was slightly taken aback, because he didn't expect that a secretary like him could actually participate in such a high-end matter.Is this... really something that a little clerk like me can participate in?
Before Deng Li could express his modesty or evade something, he heard Jia Qu say again: "Zi Ming understands things, can distinguish right from wrong, and has quick wit, so he can take on great responsibilities."A certain has already reported to the lord that after this battle, his achievements will be promoted, so Ziming doesn't have to stick to the book at this time, he can speak boldly. 』

"Ah... this..." What else could Deng Li say, he could only thank him, and then looked at the report seriously.

The content of the report was not different from what Jia Qu said, and it was more detailed, which made Deng Li's back feel a little chilled.

In this report, even what the lobbyist said and his behavior were described in such detail, if Zhang Ji hadn't written it himself, wouldn't it mean...

"Zi Ming? Jia Qu obviously didn't intend to wait for Deng Li for a long time. Seeing that Deng Li had seen enough, he urged, "Don't worry about it, just speak it out."In front of the enemy, we should gather the wisdom of all people and learn from each other's strengths to make up for our weaknesses. 』

"Your Majesty," Deng Li put down the report, and pondered for a while, "What is said in this letter...is indeed that General Zhang rejected him first, and the thief attacked him later...or..."

This order is critical.

It's like "repeated defeats and repeated defeats" and "repeated defeats and repeated battles" are the most common in later generations.

Jia Qu glanced at the middle-aged man Chen Shi who was beside him.

Mrs. Chen nodded and said, "Reject it first, then the thief takes the blade and wants to stab him, and he is beheaded." 』

Deng Li said: "If this is the case, General Zhang must be loyal, but...why does this thief want to assassinate him when he can't say it?" 』

Jia Qu nodded and said, "That's why someone called you here... Are all Shandong lobbyists like this?" 』

Is this the custom of lobbyists in Shandong?
Words can't convince, but physical persuasion?

Deng Li was dumbfounded, thought for a while, and then said: "This... I have rarely heard of this matter in Shandong, and if I can't explain it, I stabbed it... It's very strange... Maybe this speaker is actually an assassin?Or something else...」

Normally speaking, when Zhang Ji encountered such a lobbyist, even if he didn't listen to the lobbyist's words, but let him go in private, he would be very suspicious, and he would be very embarrassed if he didn't do it.

This is easy to understand, but what is hard to understand is that the lobbyist changed his job to an assassin on the spot!
Deng Li put forward a guess, saying that this kind of lobbyist-turned-assassin is not a specialty of Shandong, but may have come to assassinate...

Jia Qu and Mrs. Chen from Youwen Division looked at each other again, and then said: "Ziming seems to have some unfinished ideas? 』

Deng Li frowned and said: "Forgive me for being stupid... This is really hard to understand... If it is not an assassin, it may be a dead soldier..."

"Dead man..." Jia Qu repeated, sighing slightly, "Dead man..."

If it is really a dead soldier, then it will be troublesome.

First of all, whose dead man?

After the three of them were silent for a while, Jia Qu coughed and said, "If Zi Ming sees it, what should it be like?" 』

"Such an important matter, how can I put my beak down." 』Deng Li seemed to feel the eyes of Mrs. Chen on the side, which were as bright as fire.

Jia Qu nodded, "It's okay to say, I'm going to give you some details." 』

"This..." Deng Li frowned slightly, and said after pondering for a while, "In my opinion, I should caress General Zhang." 』

Caress.

Defend.

waived.

Prisoners.

The difference of one word is the difference between cloud and mud.

If Zhang Ji hadn't expressed his refusal first, then it might be another word now.

Hearing what Deng Li said, Jia Qu didn't ask any further questions, but nodded slowly and said, "Apart from this, if Zi Ming has any other ideas, you can tell them as much as you like." 』

"There is a saying in the art of war, attacking the heart is the most important thing." Deng Li said slowly, "Now Cao's bandits are coming in large numbers. Knowing that the Huguan Pass is steep and difficult to overcome quickly, it is natural to attack the mind, disrupt civil and military affairs, and separate places, so that internal and external communication cannot be communicated, and the upper and lower levels cannot be trusted. ... Before Huguan Pass, Cao Jun's spies disturbed the people, and now there are thieves talking about General Zhang, all of which are intentional attacks. 』

Jia Qu nodded, exchanged glances with Mrs. Chen, who was on the sidelines, and said, "What Ziming said is true.In this way...you can make General Zhang go back to the customs and pretend to imprison him...what do you think? 』

"My lord, this..." Deng Li raised his eyebrows suddenly, "My lord, among the people who entered the customs the day before yesterday, there are also thieves and spies?Seeing General Zhang...does he think that he can trick...that he can lure thieves in? 』

Jia Qu didn't deny it either, and nodded with a smile.

Le Jin entered the military camp, why didn't he enter the army?

This kind of thinking really makes Le Jin a fool!

The reason why Le Jin was able to take the army stronghold was firstly by intelligence and secondly by surprise attack.

This method of raiding will consume a lot of physical strength and stamina, and it will take two or three days to recover.After Yao Le attacked the army stronghold, he immediately entered the army. It was like staying up all night and playing all night. On the premise of no neurological drugs, he still insisted on going to class for a day without dozing off...

If he dared to make such a suggestion in Le Jin, Le Jin would stretch out his knife, praise him for being very smart, and send him away with a knife.

On the other hand, Le Jin came in a surprise attack, so in addition to fixed-point removal, he must not be able to do more investigations on both sides of the valley.

The most important task for Le Jin now is not to attack the Huguan pass with the few people who raided the army stronghold, but to find out as much as possible on both sides of the valley, so as to prevent Cao Jun's follow-up troops from being caught unexpectedly. Cast one or more powerful fireball techniques on the mountain...

Of course, if there is civil strife in Huguan Pass, Le Jin doesn't mind taking advantage of it and fishing in troubled waters.

So what Jia Qu meant was to put out the fish and sheep.

Of course no one will believe you if you take the initiative to put it out, but what if it is the information sent by "your own people"?

As long as Le Jin believes a little, he may not really attract him to attack, but as long as he sends some soldiers to check, or disturbs part of his mind, he makes a wrong judgment and makes him search the surrounding area of ​​the valley. A slight omission in time may bring great harm to Cao Jun in the future.

Do you really think that Jia Qu has not made any arrangements for the mountain road in recent years?

Of course, Deng Li had no reason to object to such a strategy. In addition to this strategy, Jia Qu also discussed with him about the people's livelihood materials in Huguan Pass, the preparation of military equipment, etc., and also consulted about Shandong customs. Deng Li went to sort out a summary of how to communicate effectively with the people in Shandong and turned it in, which made Deng Li step down.

After Deng Li left, Jia Qu turned his head and asked Chen, who had been standing beside him almost as a backdrop, "How is it?" 』

Chen's voice was low, "The eyes are clear, there is no avoidance, and the expression is stable...it doesn't look like it." 』

Jia Qu nodded and said, "Then try again."I am going to send out three pieces of news... each one is different...no injury, slight injury, serious injury...』

Mrs. Chen smiled, but on his rigid face, this smile was more like a jackal ready to hunt and opened his mouth, "It's all been arranged... Inside and outside the city, the north-south road, there are people watching..."

Jia Qu nodded and said, "I've worked really hard these past few days. After the war, I will definitely report the truth and reward my meritorious deeds." 』

There is news that Mrs. Chen cupped his hands, "Thank you, Mr. Messrs." 』

what?
People can't try?
Mencius said, heaven will send a great mission...

Do you really think that those who have worked so hard and worked so hard are really descended from the "Heaven"?
It's like Ma Su taking the test in Jieting, and if he passed, he is the successor of the general who is being cultivated. It's nothing to do with Jiang Wei, why didn't he pass...

...(;￢￢￢)...

"I have to go to the wine shop again. 』

Yuan Yuan said to Zhang Xiong.

When Yuan Yuan spoke, he didn't look at Zhang Xiong, but turned his head and looked around, his voice was low.

Zhang Xiong was taken aback, "Are you crazy?That kid has been in Huguan for so many years, and he just collected these junks, and he said that he didn't recruit people...Three years, three years, if he is really a loyal man, how can he recruit a few?As a result, there is not even a dog now...」

Yuan Yuan frowned, he didn't like Zhang Xiong.Because Zhang Xiong came from a humble background, he was originally a bandit in the Taihang Mountains, and he followed him when he was a child, robbing houses, killing people and stealing goods, so he was familiar with the mountain roads and had no sense of shame.

For money, this guy can sell everything.

But the problem is that if you want to find some people who are familiar with the mountains in Jizhou, you can only find these bandits.

Yuan Yuan and Zhang Xiong originally thought that with Ye Chuan in Huguan to support them, there would be a dozen or so, perhaps 30 or [-] people, who could become a sharp knife at a critical moment, but they didn't expect to do everything possible to confuse them. After entering Huguan, I saw Ye Chuan. Although I got some information, I was short of manpower.

Yuan Yuan, Zhang Xiong, plus two subordinates, four people, it is too thin.

If Ye Chuan...

Sometimes things are just so helpless.

"I've been to the wine shop... I didn't tell him where we live..." Yuan Yuan said in a low voice, "But in Huguan, there was no large-scale search... What do you think this means? 』

"What? Zhang Xiong stared, feeling that Yuan Yuan was playing tricks again, "What do you have... just tell me!"What's the point of going around? 』

"Nobody searched us, that means he didn't betray us!" Yuan Yuan had no choice but to explain, "So, it's worth going again!"Even if there is no one, we need to get some more money, otherwise...』

If there is no manpower, some people must be recruited, and money is the basis for recruitment.They pretended to be villagers and entered the city, so of course they couldn't put any money on them, otherwise they would be searched when they passed the customs, and it would be impossible to tell.

"money?good!Then I will go! 』Zhang Xiong's eyes lit up immediately.

Yuan Yuan waved his hand, "I'll go, you go...he doesn't know you, just in case...you set fire to it, and then...with your ability, you should be able to escape from the pot..." Are you kidding, he I came to Huguan to make meritorious service, so what is the use of money?If Zhang Xiong really wants to mess around, whose fault is it?
Zhang Xiong rolled his eyes and nodded, "That's good."Can it be burned anywhere? 』

Yuan Yuan nodded.

Setting fire is the easiest way of communication.

When Cao Jun is outside, as long as he sees the fire in Huguan, he knows that the contact has failed, and he will turn to other methods.If you can't cooperate during the siege, then setting fire is just a signal, and there is no threat to Huguan Defense.

"It's urgent..." Yuan Yuan said in a deep voice, as if he was speaking to Zhang Xiong, but also as if he was speaking to himself, "There is only one fight!" 』

Zhang Xiong let out an oh, no matter if it is the first uncle or the second uncle, anyway, money cannot be less...

……┐(~)┌……

There is only one place closest to Taihang Mountain, conveniently connected with Jizhou, where the army can be hidden, and the attack route can be changed at any time, Longlu.

Oh, it's called Lin Lu now.

Because the previous title of Longli was the same as the name of an emperor in the Han Dynasty, it was changed.

And the locals, or the surrounding people, prefer to call this place "Zhongmu".

This is an earlier name...

Because at that time, Zhongmou was still a good place.

Everyone likes a good place.

The mountains and rivers are beautiful, and the spring is warm and the flowers are blooming.

It's a pity that since the Warring States period, Zhongmou has been in decline.

Because the terrain of this place is really weird.

Taihang Mountain is to the west, and there is a river, the Zhang River, to the north.Then there are some hills in the east, which is generally a long and narrow basin in the north-south direction.

Not all basins are cornucopias, just like the land of Zhongmou, but it is actually a broken dustpan.Because the west side is high and the east side is low, so when there is water, it rushes to the east, and the land of Zhongmou itself is sandstone rock with strong water seepage, so it can't keep water if you want to.Therefore, after the Warring States period, as generations of people destroyed the vegetation in the land of Zhongmou, the water and soil became unbalanced, with fewer and fewer forests and more and more stones...

As a big man at the moment, Zhongmu is pretty good, but he has already shown a little tiredness.Especially when so many soldiers gathered here, if Xiahoudun hadn't hoarded some food and grass in Zhongmou early on, it might have sucked up all of Zhongmou's flesh and blood just by being stationed during this period.

Zhongmu, you can go up to Fukou, go down to go through sheep's intestines, and at the same time, you can continue to go north, pass Jingxing and go straight to the Taiyuan Basin. Naturally, it is a very important place, but it is very important to Cao Jun. For the Zhongmou Ren family, It's not that important...

In the Ren's hall, Old Master Ren had a sad expression on his face.

The school official Zhao Da shook his sleeves, stroked the messy hair protruding from the side of the crown, almost spit in his hand, and smoothed it out.

The school official's position is not high, but his authority is terrifying.When Old Master Ren was celebrating his birthday before, the school official colluded with Zhongmu Duwei Wang Hai and beheaded Zhongmu Pan's family. This was still a haunting nightmare in Old Master Ren's heart, so this time Zhao Da came, even if Old Master Ren was considered a rarity It's been a year, but I still don't dare to rely on the old to sell the old, and come out obediently to welcome and entertain.

"Lang Jun is really joking..." Old Master Ren coughed twice, "Everyone in the Ren family is innocent, and they are all loyal to the big man and loyal to the prime minister..."

"Uh-huh. Zhao Da nodded, "I didn't say you were unfaithful, Mrs. Ren.I just want you to call those people out. 』

The old man Ren narrowed his eyes, under the wrinkles all over his face, he seemed to be thinking about it, "Lang Jun, old man... I really don't understand what you are saying..."

"not understand? Zhao Da's face sank, "I'm saving you!"Not begging you!Old... Mrs. Ren!Do you think that when Pan was killed back then, all the smuggling from Taixing never happened? !The Sima family in Hanoi is also a common surname, and it has dominated Wen County, Hanoi for decades. How is it now? !The Zhang family of Xiuwu is after Zhang Zifang, the founding hero of the great Han Dynasty, so what?If he hadn't handed over the smuggled horse in his hand, he would be killing everyone now!The Ren family, the Ren family can ignore the great cause of the prime minister and deceive the king? ! 』

The old man was silent.

Whether it is Cao Cao or Xiahou Dun, they all know that these places around Taihang Mountain are powerful and powerful, and the big gentry are smuggling.In fact, this kind of thing has never been known much, as long as these local tyrants do not arrogantly want to build red houses and green houses, threatening that the local government is a lackey or something, most of them will turn a blind eye.

But now it's different, the war is about to start, and these pigs that are usually smuggled and fattened will be dragged out and killed.

Or keep it for the New Year?
If it weren't for the fact that the Ren family had some sort of marriage relationship with the Cao family, they would have been wiped out a long time ago just like the Pan family.

Those who were vigilant earlier turned over their smuggled hands and income, which can save their lives to some extent. If they persist to the end, they will really seek death.

Otherwise, do you really think Cao Jun is omnipotent?

Wrong, these smugglers are endless, passing on from generation to generation!
Zhao Da snorted coldly, "General Xiahou is kind-hearted, and he doesn't want to see Cao and Ren's close relatives, so he asked someone to come... to persuade him with good words, but... hehe, good words are hard to persuade people who want to die!"If Mrs. Ren is unwilling to hand it over...then I will go straight back to General Xiahou.farewell! 』

Zhao Da shook his sleeves and was about to leave, but was stopped by Mrs. Ren.

After thinking for a while, Mrs. Ren said: "In the Ren family, there are indeed no such people who violate the law... Don't worry, sir, I heard that there is a rocky mountain 25 miles northwest from here, and there are some bandits among them." They are all good at crossing mountains and mountains... If the gentleman came here in good faith, he would be summoned with righteousness, temporarily pardoned his crime, and sent to the army to perform his crimes and meritorious deeds, presumably these thieves and bandits will definitely correct their evil ways and serve bravely...』

"snort! 』Zhao Da saw that he had obtained the information, so he was too lazy to continue to entangle with Mrs. Ren, so he turned around and was about to leave, but was stopped by Mrs. Ren. A lacquer box came, and a few wisps of gold and silver treasure leaked out between the opening and closing, which was quite dazzling, and he immediately smiled, "Haha, ah, hahaha, this... the Ren family is indeed loyal, patriotic, and loyal people!"I will definitely remember Ren's active contribution, and after the prime minister wins, I will definitely reward you! 』
