"Boyo, there are some things that cannot be said and done. And there are some things that cannot be done that cannot be done!"

Feng Yong said something serious to Jiang Wei.

Jiang Wei was stunned for a moment and didn't understand.

Feng Junhou said "tsk" and had to explain more clearly: "Although I will be away, I will not accept your order."

"But crossing the river against orders is something I can say and do. Even you, Boqi, and Xiaoxing can raise it."

"It can't be said by Old Man Wei, nor can it be done by him, let alone in front of the public."

Although a man has only a few thousand soldiers, he has the right to be independent.

Although one of them has 20,000 troops, he is limited to the east of the river.

If the two of them conspired so openly and openly, how could they violate military orders? Who knows what would happen if word spread about it?

Although Old Demon Zhuge was fair and strict, it was precisely because of his strict fairness that Feng Yong was not sure what Old Demon Zhuge would think about this matter.

If he has a seizure, do we really have to follow the rules?

Even if Old Demon Zhuge captured Jincheng County and Xiping County on his own, he would not pursue the matter afterwards.

But how many more years can Old Demon Zhuge remain in power?

Who can guarantee that this matter will not become a thorn hidden in the depths?

It's just these words that I can't say out loud.

Seeing Jiang Wei's half-understanding look, and then remembering that he was kicked from both sides by his own people and had to surrender to the big man in the end, Feng Yong sighed.

Bo Yue's political IQ is probably only a little better than that of Wei Lao Fu, no more.

"Bo asked you to go and get ready."

Feng Yongyong had no choice but to give him instructions in a low voice.

Only then did Jiang Wei suddenly wake up.

He clasped his fists gratefully, and as soon as he reached the tent, he suddenly turned around and said, "Your Majesty..."

"Hmm? What else is there?"

Feng Yong asked strangely.

A look of embarrassment appeared on Jiang Wei's face, "If the Prime Minister asks..."

"You can just say it straight, I have nothing to say to the Prime Minister."

As soon as Feng Yong heard this, he knew the scruples in his heart.

Anyway, I don't expect to be able to play with someone like Zhuge Laoyao with my little thinking.

Jiang Wei nodded and walked out.

Li Jian received Feng Yong's instructions, so he first sent someone to arrange food for the Zhang family's uncle and nephew, and then took them towards the ferry outside Jincheng.

Along the way, I saw groups of soldiers hurriedly heading east.

At the same time, many generals on horseback were urging them, as if there was something urgent, regardless of the scorching sun.

The uncle and nephew of the Zhang family looked at each other and saw surprise in each other's eyes.

Didn't it mean that Yuzhong had been destroyed? Even Wei Ping, the defender of Yuzhong, died in the battle.

What else can happen to the east of Jincheng at this time?

Could it be... Li Jian lied to them?

Li Jian pretended not to notice their doubts and just urged them to move forward.

Because of Jincheng's watchfulness, the pontoon bridge at the ferry was not destroyed.

Li Jian led Zhang's uncle and nephew to the ferry, stretched out his hand and saluted: "Please."

Parked by the river was a large raft made of cowhide, enough to carry ten or twenty people.

Zhang looked towards the pontoon bridge not far away and saw a crowd of people there. Thinking of what he had just seen on the road, he couldn't help but feel a move in his heart.

He pretended to be casual and asked: "Why don't you walk on the bridge?"

Li Jian's face was full of smiles, and she didn't seem to mind Zhang Jiu's attitude at all.

"To be honest with Zhang Changshi, the emperor has already ordered that the bridge be demolished, so I just wanted to cross the river with Zhang Changshi in a boat."

"Demolish the bridge?" Not only Zhang Jiu, but also Zhang Hua couldn't help but look over there.

Once Jincheng is lost, the door to Liangzhou will be wide open. Instead of taking the opportunity to move westward, the Shu people will plan to demolish the bridge?

Seeing the suspicion in their eyes, Li Jian extended her hand again without explaining, "Please."

But for a while, they couldn't see clearly what was going on over there, so the uncles and nephews of the Zhang family had no choice but to board the ship with full of doubts.

Unexpectedly, before we reached the center of the river, we heard a sudden noise coming from behind.

The people on the raft looked back and saw that the pontoons that had been tied up had spread apart, and some pontoons used for support were flowing down the river.

There are still some people who are working hard to pull the escaped pontoons back to the river.

Are they really burning bridges?

The Zhang family uncle and nephew looked at each other again.

Until Li Jian sent them to the other side, the two of them still felt like they were dreaming.

Li Jian bowed his hands to them, turned back to the raft, and headed towards Jincheng again.

At this time, I saw black smoke suddenly rising from the other side.

"They are burning the bridge!" Zhang Hua said in surprise. He looked at his nephew again, "Why don't the Shu people take advantage of this good opportunity to cross the river?"

Zhang looked at the black smoke on the other side, his eyes flashing: "Uncle, do you think the Shu soldiers going eastward might have something to do with it?"

"You mean Yuzhong?"

Zhang Hua expressed the doubts he had on the road just now.

Zhang shook his head and turned to look east, his eyes getting darker and darker: "It may not be Yuzhong. If Yuzhong had not fallen, the Shu people would not have stayed in Jincheng for so long before going to support them."

"If it's not Yuzhong, where is that?"

Zhang Hua couldn't turn around for a while.

Zhang looked around and saw that they were all close friends of his family. Then he lowered his voice and said, "Is it possible that uncle has forgotten Guanzhong?"

"Guanzhong?"

After hearing this, Zhang Hua suddenly woke up and looked eastward involuntarily.

"Yes, Guanzhong. Last year, the Wei Dynasty was unprepared, and the Shu people took the opportunity."

"More than a year has passed, and Wei's Dingkou elite troops have defeated Shu ten times. How can they not try to seize Longyou?"

The more Zhang thought about it, the more likely it became, "The Shu people attacked Yuzhong Jincheng with tens of thousands of troops, how could Guanzhong not know about the movement?"

"So the Shu people returned to the east in such a hurry. Maybe the Wei State noticed the movement in Longyou and took some actions in Guanzhong."

After hearing this, Zhang Hua felt that it made sense, but then asked, "Are you sure?"

Zhang listened and felt helpless.

My uncle is quite courageous, but he is a bit inflexible.

"Now that Liangzhou is cut off from Guanzhong, the news we got from Guanzhong was more than half a year ago at least."

"Last winter, the Wei army safely settled the county and destroyed Yuezhi City, which is enough to illustrate the heart of General Cao."

Having said this, Zhang pointed to the east and then to the other side.

"The Shu Kingdom is a small country and its people are weak. It mobilizes tens of thousands of elite troops to attack Jincheng in Yuzhong. How many troops are left in Hanzhong and Longyou?"

"And after the great victory, the Shu soldiers did not take the opportunity to march to Hexi. Instead, they hurriedly returned to the army and burned the bridge. Isn't this just a defense against Hexi?"

"So when I think about it, my nephew, it is most likely that the Shu people are having a serious war in the east, forcing them to give up such a great opportunity."

When Zhang Hua heard this, he slapped his thigh: "That makes sense!"

Zhang opened his mouth, wanting to say that this was just his guess, but when he saw the billowing smoke on the other side, he had other ideas.

Nowadays, the people in Liangzhou must be uneasy. Since the Shu people will not cross the river west, it is better to use the news of the Wei army in Guanzhong to attack Longyou to appease the Liangzhou officials.

Anyway, there is no news between Liangzhou and Guanzhong, and there are all kinds of rumors. Even if there is one more, it doesn't matter.

The uncles and nephews of the Zhang family stood by the river and made sure that half of the pontoon bridge had been burned and that the Shu people really had no intention of crossing the river, so they headed towards the nearest city, Zhiyang City.

Although there are no horses to travel, scholars in this era like to use fists and feet to reason with others.

In addition, Zhiyang City is not too far away from here, so there is no problem in walking there.

The cities in Liangzhou are either like a county like Yuzhong, a key place like Jincheng, or a long-standing big city like Wuwei County Guzang, otherwise they are generally small.

Just like the city wall of Zhiyang City, it is not only short but also dilapidated.

The reason is also very simple: the Liangzhou Rebellion that lasted for more than a hundred years.
