"Since General Husband intends to go to war and relieve my pressure, that's of course the best." Zhuge Liang pushed a reply written by himself to Hu Zhong and looked at Hu Zhong deeply: "However, can you convince the town?

General Nan, it depends on whether he has a suitable reason. I have received General Zhennan’s strategy, and he does not seem to have a plan to participate in the war.”

Hu Zhong took the letter, carefully put it away, bowed and bowed: "Then I will say goodbye. I will tell the Prime Minister what he meant, I will tell the General Cavalry truthfully. The Prime Minister takes care of him and work hard to have a meal."

"Thank you for your concern, and for your concern to General Cavalry." Zhuge Liang waved his hand, stood up and sent Hu Zhong out of the tent, bowed and said goodbye. Hu Zhong left the camp, turned over and ran away, surrounded by several guards,

go.

Yang Yi, who had been standing outside the tent, followed in. As soon as he stepped into the tent, he couldn't help saying: "Prime Minister, how can you agree with Li Yan's plan?"

"Why can't you agree?" Zhuge Liang smiled and sat back in front of the case, spreading his pen and ink. "They sent troops to Xiangyang and cooperated with Sun Quan to send troops to Jianghuai. Cao Wei will definitely not be able to use troops to Guanzhong anymore. It just happened to give us a chance, why not do it?"

"But……"

"Are you worried that Xiangyang is not in short supply?" Zhuge Liang glanced at Yang Yi: "Don't worry, if Wei Ba is willing to help, although his troops are not superior, they are not bad, and there is still a chance to win."

"Prime Minister..." Yang Yi was really anxious, stamped her feet and said loudly: "I'm worried if he will lose, I'm just worried that he will win."

Zhuge Liang's eyes flashed and he was silent for a moment: "Is it better to win? If Jingxiang can be recovered, it will be of great benefit to the restoration of the Han Dynasty, what's wrong?"

Yang Yi is still waiting for further advice, Zhuge Liang shook his head: "Mr. Wei Gong, I will send troops to Xiaoguan soon. There are still many things you need to prepare. Don't bother about this matter anymore. I will also write a letter to Wei Ba, you go

Be busy.”

Yang Yi sighed in frustration and turned around and left the account. He felt that the Prime Minister's decision was very wrong. Li Yan went out of Xiangyang and Wei Ba helped him, even if he couldn't win a big victory, at least he had a chance to tie the game. However, Guanzhong was hit hard by this time.

Li Yan will definitely suppress the Prime Minister, which is obviously unfavorable to the situation in front of the Prime Minister, but the Prime Minister actually agreed. I really don’t know what he was thinking. Could it be that it was because the connection between Ma Su and Jiang Wei failed. The Prime Minister believed that he was not in a good position. Or was it

Does he have other ideas?

Yang Yi shook his head, sighed, unable to understand.

...

Hu Zhong rushed back to Chengdu and reported Zhuge Liang's opinions to Li Yan. Li Yan was overjoyed, but was not at ease. He knew that if he went to the battle, the key to victory or defeat was whether Wei Ba was willing to help, how much he was willing to help.

After weighing the pros and cons, Li Yan agreed to Guan Feng and others leave Chengdu, and sent Hu Zhong to lead dozens of guards to protect them to Linyuan, and at the same time decided to cooperate with Wei Ba to send troops.

Hu Zhong came to Linyuan again without stopping.

Linyuan is very lively, Wei Ba makes a huge concession, Sun Quan finally agrees to his request, Sun Luban's marriage procedure starts step by step, the messenger shuttles between Linyuan and Wuchang, and the city of Linyuan is filled with joy.

The atmosphere.

Fei Yi is the busiest person. He not only has to coordinate between the two sides, but also a matchmaker. The emcee is shouldering his shoulders, but also has to constantly report the progress of the situation to the prime minister in Guanzhong. It was like a foot slap in the back of the head and it didn't stop for a moment.

In contrast, Wei Ba was the most leisurely. In addition to going out to the city to patrol and train his own personal guard camp every day, he discussed the matter of sending troops with Zhao Tong. Because Xiahou Hui successfully convinced Sun Luban, she

He also became Pan Ziyu's best friend, and the two were inseparable, which also gave Zhao Tong more time to accompany Wei Ba.

At this moment, the two stood in front of a sand table, pondering without saying a word.

They were not optimistic about the situation of sending troops to Xiangyang.

According to the incomplete data analysis at hand, after the autumn harvest, the Wei army was able to collect 50,000 troops, of which nearly 20,000 troops were led by Sima Yi stationed in Xinye, and 20,000 troops of Cao Rui Imperial Guard stationed in Wancheng.

The rest of the people are still stationed in Xuchang area, with more than 10,000 mobile troops led by Chen Qun. If Sun Quan responds to the story and refuses to contribute, then more than 20,000 Yangzhou Legion stationed in Shouchun and led by Man Chong may join at any time.

In the battle group, the total force of the Wei army will reach more than 70,000.

The Shu Han army can mobilize no more than 50,000 troops at most, which is almost all the mobile troops that Shu Han can draw except the Guanzhong Corps. All these 50,000 people cannot participate in the war, at least 10,000 to 20,000 will be left to leave at least 10,000 to 20,000 people.

Come to monitor Sun Quan so that he will not take advantage of the situation to rob. Whether it is Wei Ba or Zhao Tong, he is not very relieved about Sun Quan.

"Your cheap uncle is really a headache. You retreat to advance, not only sell your favors, but also create opportunities for yourself." Wei Ba rubbed his eyebrows and complained: "I think he is not good at it, so he must not be careful.

ah."

Zhao Tong planted the small flag in his hand and glanced at Wei Ba. He was used to the way he spoke to Wei Ba.

"He has the intention to use tricks, and it depends on whether you are willing to be fooled." Zhao Tong said lightly: "From the current situation, I don't agree with your participation in the war. If you don't agree to participate in the war, Li Yan may not dare to do it."

With such great confidence, he may not necessarily send troops.”

"I don't want to join the war either." Wei Ba held his chest with one hand and rubbed his beard with the other: "As long as I can move Cao Rui's attention away from Guanzhong and buy some time for the Prime Minister, I will be satisfied. The current conditions for the Northern Expedition are still

Imature, wait a few more years..."

"You can wait for a few more years for the Northern Expedition. Now there is something more important, but you have to do it." Fei Yi rushed in and said excitedly: "Bo Ren, hurry up and clean up a room and come out, Mr. Zhao

The general is here.”

"What?" Wei Ba and Zhao Tong shouted at the same time.

"What are you doing?" Fei Yi glared at his eyes and said with a smile: "Don't you want it? Ziyu, are you afraid that your master will steal your limelight? Boren, do you want to let Old General Zhao have another wedding banquet in Guanzhong?"

"No, no, no." Wei Ba and Zhao Tong waved their hands repeatedly and looked at each other: "We can't ask for anything."

"This is almost the same." Fei Yi shook his head and gave a wink: "Why don't you go out to greet me?"

"Has arrived?" Wei and Zhao were shocked again, but then they felt relieved. The Zhao Mansion and even the entire Linyuan County were on high alert, but what is Zhao Yun's identity? He wanted to go straight in, and no one dared to stop him.

.

Wei Ba did not dare to be negligent and immediately pulled Zhao Tong out of the mansion. As soon as he went out, Zhao Yun led twenty cavalry to the mansion, and there was no order. The twenty knights all tied the war horses.

The horses stood neatly, as if they were lined up.

Wei Ba and Zhao Tong ran forward side by side, but their expressions were completely opposite. Zhao Tong stood in front of the horse in embarrassment, bowed and said with guilt, "Father, you are here."

Wei Ba smiled, grabbed Zhao Yun's reins, and said happily: "Master, you are here, this is great. You are tired, get off the horse quickly and go to the mansion to have a few drinks to relieve your fatigue."

Zhao Yun, who was exhausted, glanced at the enthusiastic disciple, then looked at the restrained son, snorted softly, turned over and dismounted, and stepped into the mansion. Wei Ba was tightly aside, talking nonstop,

Zhao Tong lowered his head, as if he had made a mistake, followed honestly. When he entered the mansion, he saw Pan Ziyu kneeling in the courtyard, lowering his head, revealing his slender neck.

"I am a son of Pan, and I will pay my respects to my uncle. I hope to forgive my sins."

Zhao Tong stopped and looked back at Zhao Tong. Zhao Tong looked at him awkwardly, not daring to say a word. When he married Pan Ziyu, Zhao Yun was still in Guanzhong, and there was no matchmaker's words in advance.

Later, the re-issue was made, not to mention that Sun Luban was involved, so he didn't know how to explain to his father. When he saw his father's black face, he knew that his father was very dissatisfied.

"Master, my sister-in-law is the daughter of Pan Chengming, the chief clerk of General Guan Jingzhou when he was the governor of General Guan. He is well-educated and polite, and is extremely virtuous. He falls in love with his senior brother at first sight and is in love with each other..."

"I know." Zhao Yun interrupted Wei Ba's endless praise, even Guan Yu, who had been dead for many years, finally couldn't hold back his face and smiled rarely: "Although Pan Chengming and I were not close in the past, it was

My close friend. I feel very comforted that my Zhao family can marry his daughter. Let’s get up.”

Zhao Yun was helping him with a weak body, and Pan Ziyu quickly stood up. Zhao Yun looked up and down at Pan Ziyu's somewhat shy face and nodded: "Well, it's not much different from childhood." He said as he pulled out of his arms.

He took out a piece of jade bi, spread it in his palm and looked at it, and handed it to Pan Ziyu: "Child, this is what you deserve. Although it's a little late, I don't think you will blame me even if you come."

Although Pan Ziyu didn't know what this was, he knew that this antique jade bi must be very important, otherwise Zhao Yun would not say that. Her eyes crossed Zhao Yun's shoulders, but saw Zhao Tong's face full of joy, looking at her.

He gestured repeatedly. Pan Ziyu pursed his lips and smiled, put his jade in his arms, bowed and bowed: "Thank you, uncle, please come to the inner hall and wait for Ziyu to enter the kitchen to make soup for uncle and make a bride's tribute."

According to the convention, the next morning the newlyweds got married, the bride had to get up early and cook for her uncle and aunt to show her entry and become a member of the family. Zhao Tong and Pan Ziyu have never seen Zhao Yun since they got married.

Of course, I can't talk about it. Today, Zhao Yun came to marry Sun Luban. Although Pan Ziyu wanted to make a soup in front of Sun Luban to show that he was the first to get started.

Pan Ziyu turned around and went to the kitchen. Zhao Tong couldn't help but feel joy and accompanied Zhao Yun into the inner hall with Wei Ba. However, Zhao Yun did not sit in the hall, but went straight into the study and looked at the sand table full of small flags.

Zhao Yun's eyes tightened, he turned around, looked at Wei Ba, and said in a deep voice: "Ziyu, do you know what I am here for?"

Wei Ba laughed: "You can guess it's almost impossible to tell me."

Zhao Yun raised his eyelids: "Then can you still laugh?"

"Master is here, why don't I laugh?" Wei Ba laughed: "I'm really very happy."
