Zhang Song said:


    "There is only one person Liu Bei has always been afraid of, that is Cao Cao. Since Liu Bei won Xuzhou, he has been defeated by Cao Cao many times and exhausted, so he fled to Jingzhou and attached to Liu Biao.


    "Although Cao Cao is now destroyed, Yuan Xi, the Duke of Yan, is ten times stronger than Cao Cao in terms of literature and martial arts! If you can ask the Duke of Yan to send troops to save Xichuan, Liu Bei must flee in a hurry and dare not peep into Xichuan any more."


    Liu Zhang nodded and said, "Yan Gong is indeed smarter than Cao Cao, and his strength is far more powerful than Liu Bei. But... Since Yan Gong didn''t take the heart of Xichuan, would he not want to stop Liu Bei because of the remoteness of Sichuan?"


    Zhang Song said with a smile, "Lord, you are worried. In Lord Yan''s eyes, Liu Bei is different from Lord, and will not be satisfied with a corner of Xichuan. If Liu Bei gets Xichuan, it will invade Hanzhong, even threaten Guanzhong, and follow the story of Gaozu''s coming out of Sichuan. Therefore, Lord Yan, you have no problem sitting in Xichuan, but Liu Bei will not be allowed to collect Xichuan."


    Zhang Song''s subtext is that Liu Zhang is not as ambitious as Liu Bei.


    However, Liu Zhang was not angry, but said, "Lord Yan has become a teacher. Please don''t drive and persuade him to turn around."


    Huang Quan hurriedly said, "Lord, no! Liu Bei is a jackal, and Yan Gong is a tiger and a leopard. In order to drive away a jackal, we invited a fierce tiger. Didn''t we drink poison to quench our thirst?"


    Engaged in Wang Lei also advised: "although Lord Yan has no intention of accepting Sichuan on the surface, if he is invited to Sichuan, he will certainly change his mind and seize Yizhou! I, the people of Yizhou, can stop Liu Bei, but I can''t stop Lord Yan''s army. May Lord investigate carefully!"


    Liu Zhang hesitated.


    Zhang song suddenly looked up and laughed.


    Liu Zhang frowned and said, "don''t drive. Why are you laughing?"


    Zhang Song stopped laughing and said: "I laugh at master Huang''s book and Wang''s work. We just need to contact Lord Yan and ask him to send a general to attack Jiameng pass and cut off Liu Bei''s way back. When will Lord Yan go to Sichuan? If Liu Bei''s back road is cut off, there will be no food and grass, the army will be in chaos, and he will be captured by Lord sooner or later. In this way, we can stop Liu Bei without Lord Yan going to Sichuan."


    Liu Zhang nodded and said, "Lord Yan has no intention of benefiting the state. Although he is powerful, he is harmless to me. Zhang''s words are reasonable."


    Zhang Song said, "please send the letter as soon as possible to avoid Yan Gong''s army evacuating Hanzhong."


    Huang Quan and Wang Lei still admonished. Liu Zhang scolded, "I have no confidence to stop Liu Bei. What can you do? If you don''t let me connect with Yan Gong, I will become Liu Bei''s prisoner sooner or later!"


    After rebuking the two, Liu Zhang quickly repaired the book and still had to send Zhang Song north to Hanzhong for help.


    Zhang Song refused to go back and forth, "foot disease" attack, it is difficult to travel; then recommended his friend Fazheng, went north with books, and Liu Zhang agreed.


    ……


    Hanzhong, Nanzheng city.


    Zhang Ying received the letter delivered by Fazheng, kept Fazheng in the post for a while, and then went to inform Bai Xiaowen.


    At this time, Bai Xiao civilization had evacuated from Hanzhong, but in fact, he still stayed and waited for a good opportunity.


    After reading Liu Zhang''s letter for help, Bai Xiaowen laughed and said, "Zhang song is really my strong arm and has perfectly reached my preliminary plan."


    When he heard that the envoy was Fazheng, Bai Xiaowen nodded and said, "this is Zhang song. He doesn''t forget his old friends and doesn''t want to be famous. He wants to let his friends enjoy wealth and honor, so he asked Fazheng to come. Summon him quickly and don''t wait."


    Bai Xiaowen personally received Fazheng.


    When FA Zheng saw Bai Xiaowen, he said happily, "I knew that Yan Gong could not have no intention of evacuating Hanzhong to Yizhou! That Zhang Yongnian also covered up to me."


    Bai Xiaowen said with a smile, "if you have the talent of filial piety (fingering correction), why should you make it clear forever. I intend to Xichuan. I can''t let Liu Zhang separate from Liu Bei, let alone give it to Liu Bei."


    FA Zheng nodded and said, "Yan Gong, although the situation is favorable, it is not the best time to enter the game."


    Bai Xiaowen asked with a smile, "Xiaozhi thinks it''s appropriate to enter the Bureau when?"


    FA Zhengdao said, "Liu Bei has attacked Fushui pass and the soldiers point directly at Luocheng. Although Liu Zhang sent troops to guard Luocheng, we speculate about the strength of the two armies. Liu Ruo and other four generals will not be able to stop Liu Bei. Luocheng will be taken by Liu Bei sooner or later!


    "At that time, Liu beibing pointed directly at Chengdu. However, Chengdu has high walls and thick walls, there are still tens of thousands of elite soldiers, and the internal food and grass can be used for one year. When there is hope outside, Liu Zhang will not surrender immediately, and Chengdu can support for some time.


    "Yan Gong waited until Luocheng fell before sending troops. There are two advantages: first, Liu Bei''s front can be lengthened, and there is no time to return to Jiameng pass and Fushui pass. Then the road has been cut off by Yan Gong, and he can''t look after each other! Second, Liu Zhang has lost more than half of Xichuan. When he can''t protect himself, he has no ability to stop Yan Gong from taking Xichuan. This is killing two birds with one stone."


    Bai Xiaowen said with a smile, "Zhang song once had filial piety and straight talents. Indeed, he is a man with no illusions under the reputation. One advantage of your strategy for Gu has not been said: Third, if Liu Bei is trapped in Xichuan, there will be no owner in Jingzhou. Gu can order a general to take advantage of the situation."


    FA Zheng praised: "Yan Gong is far from thinking."


    At present, Bai Xiaowen held a banquet to accompany Xun you and the generals, and the guests and hosts enjoyed it.


    During the dinner, suddenly someone came to report, and ye had an urgent letter sent to him.


    Bai Xiaowen opened the letter and frowned when he opened it.


    Xun you looked at his words and expressions and asked, "Lord, can something happen in ye?"


    Bai Xiaowen shook his head and said, "it''s not yedU that has an accident, but Jiangdong sun CE has an action." after that, he spread the letter written by Dong Zhao to the people present, and Fazheng is no exception.


    After reading, Xun you was surprised and said, "Sun CE sent troops north to attack the city of Anhui, and the military front pointed directly at Hefei (ancient work ''He Fei'') Lord, Hefei is the throat of Huainan, and its strategic position is extremely important. If Jiangdong gets Hefei, he can go north to Xu and Henan and compete for the dominance of the central plains; if the Central Plains has Hefei, he can choke the throat of the south of the Yangtze River and hide his back. If Hefei loses, the land of Huainan will no longer be owned by Lord. "


    During the banquet, if anyone knows the strategic significance of Hefei best, it is only Xun you of Cao Cao''s old department.


    Why doesn''t Bai Xiaowen know the importance of Hefei?


    In the romance of the Three Kingdoms, after the Chibi war, sun, the good son of others, 100000 Zhongmou, once enlisted himself many times to occupy Hefei. Of course, he was also unfortunately reduced to the experience gift bag of Zhang Xiaoyaojin Wenyuan. The legendary myth of eight million breaking one hundred thousand left a heavy color in the romance.


    Due to Zhang Liao''s outstanding performance in the face of Sun Quan, Hefei has always been firmly in the hands of Cao''s group.


    Zhang Ying said: "the Central Plains is the foundation of our army, and the importance of the two rivers is still second. The Lord should not hesitate. He should return to yedU as soon as possible, raise troops to the South and solve the difficulties of Hefei!"
