Chapter 138 What Plot Do You Have With Liu Wu, I Don't Want You To See It! 【1】
"I wanted to make a fool of myself, but I didn't expect His Highness to have thought of it long ago. I'm ashamed."
Guo Jia sighed, and couldn't help laughing at himself.
Wen Chou looked bewildered and asked in puzzlement, "Zhang Yun is so loyal to the Yuan family, why is he willing to be our internal response?"
"Ziqin, don't forget that Zhang He was originally a general of Han Fu's army."
Liu Wu said meaningfully.
Wen Chou's body was shocked, and Xia Ran came to his senses.
"Zhang He was originally Han Fu's subordinate. After Yuan Shao stole Jizhou, he surrendered to Yuan Shao. He is not a minister of Yuan Shao's meritorious service, nor can he be said to be a loyal loyalist.
"In the previous interception battle at Baimadu, it was supposed to be able to board the boat first and escape to the north bank alive. It was only because of winning people's hearts that Zhang Xi was allowed to cross first, and he thought it wise to stay behind and cut off the retreat for our navy. "
"This matter, to put it another way, can also be interpreted as Zhang Yun abandoning Yuan Shao and fleeing first, or even robbing Yuan Shao of his chance to escape."
"This is our chance to force Zhang Yun to be our internal response.
Guo Jia was eloquent and thought out his plan.
Wen Chou suddenly realized.
All the generals in the tent were all refreshed.
Tai Shici said happily: "Zhang He is the only general Yuan Shang can rely on. If he is willing to act as an internal response, Yecheng will naturally be defeated easily!"
The generals became excited for a moment.
Guo Jia then cupped his hands and said: "If Your Highness agrees with my strategy, we will now arrange for the Jin Yiwei to work carefully and spread rumors in Yecheng, saying that Zhang Yun secretly took refuge in the lord and deliberately abandoned Yuan Shao on the south bank at the beginning, allowing him to be taken lightly by His Highness."
"Well, the plan of filial piety is exactly what I want."
Liu Wu nodded slightly, and said with a flick of his hand: "Just as Fengxiao said, let Jin Yiwei let the wind out.
"No!" Guo Jia took the order.
The 190 generals in the tent became excited for a while, and their spirits were greatly lifted.
"His Majesty's plan is probably to drive away Yuan Shang's trust in Zhang He, and force Zhang He to take the initiative to take refuge and act as an internal support.
"But as far as I know, although Yuan Shang is not a mediocre talent, he also has the appearance of a hero. We may not be able to make Yuan Shang credulous just relying on these rumors."
Cao Ren raised concerns.
Guo Jia nodded and said: "General Zixiao's words are all reasonable, but right now I can only think of this strategy, and I can only try it first."
Liu Wu remained silent, his thoughts racing.
Suddenly, a gleam flashed in his eyes, and there was a plan in his mind.
Immediately Liu Wu picked up the pen and wrote a letter.
Afterwards, he wrote another batch and crossed out a few strokes on the letter.
"Feng Xiao, after the rumors are released, send someone to send a letter written by the king to Zhang He.
Liu Wu threw away the pen and gave the letter to Guo Jia.
Guo Jia looked suspiciously, took the letter, and flipped through it carefully.
Suddenly, he lifted his spirits, raised his head, and looked at Liu Wu in amazement.
"It seems that Feng Xiao understands the king's intentions, what, what's the plan?"
A took a sip of wine and asked with a smile.
Guo Jia put away the letter, cupped his hands and sighed in admiration: "Your Highness's plan to divide people is really brilliant, Jia is convinced."
Liu Wu smiled slightly, waved his hands and said, "Since Feng Xiao agrees, let's do it quickly."
"promise!"
Four days later, Yecheng.
The inner hall of the state capital.
Yuan Shangzheng is discussing secretly with the examiner.
In the first battle of Xudu, Yuan Shao's counselors and generals were all killed and injured. Now Yuan Shang has only one general left, and only one trusted counselor is left for trial.
"Zhengnan, how is the rebuilding of Yijing's line of defense going?"
Yuan Shang asked in a deep voice.
The examiner cupped his hands and said, "My lord, Youzhou has mobilized 50,000 people to build it day and night, and the Yijing defense line will be restarted in three months at the latest."
"Three months?"
"My lord still has 30,000 elite soldiers, as well as a general like Zhang He. It shouldn't be a problem to hold Yecheng for three months."
Yuan Shang breathed a sigh of relief, and then ordered: "Send an order to the water camp on the north bank of Zhangshui. Once I give the signal, immediately drive the raft to the south bank, and then I will go north from Zhangshui and retreat to Yi."
"No!" The judge took the order.
Yuan Shang felt relieved, and was in a good mood for a while, so he sipped some wine.
But the judge said: "My lord, there are rumors all over the city, and they are all about Zhang He. I think my lord must guard against it."
"What's the rumor?" Suspicion flashed in Yuan Shang's eyes.
"There are rumors in the city that at the time of Baimadu, Xiangong was able to cross the river and return to Liyang. It was Zhang He who abandoned Xiangong on the south bank and fled back alone. In the end, it was Liu Wu's victim."
"If this rumor is true, then Zhang Yun's heart can be condemned, and he must have taken refuge in Liu Wu secretly. My lord relies heavily on him to guard Ye City, and the consequences will be disastrous."
The judge lowered his voice and expressed his concerns.
Yuan Shang was stunned and asked anxiously: "Is this really the case, or is it just a rumor?"
The judge said solemnly: "I have investigated it secretly. According to the soldiers who escaped from Baimadu, the grandfather did indeed rush to Baimadu with Zhang He, but Zhang He boarded the boat first. Some people said that it was Zhang He. Abandoning Xiangong and fleeing first, there are also people who say that Xiangong let Zhang Xi cross first, and he wants to be the rear, and there are different opinions."
"The 200,000 army was annihilated, followed by Liu Wu's pursuers, my father managed to escape to Baimadu, but instead of crossing the river first, he would stay behind?"
When Yuan Shang asked back like this, his tone and expression were obviously deeply suspicious.
The judge nodded and said: "I also doubt it, but Zhang Xi himself explained it in this way. At that time, he thought that the Lord would rely on him to guard the city of Ye, so he didn't question it. Now that I think about it, the more I think about it, the more I realize it. Suspicious."
Yuan Shang frowned, and said in a deep voice: "If he is really lying, then my father died because of him. This man has a vicious mind, how can I trust him any more!"
"My lord, if not, we (ceef) will take Zhang Xi down and remove his military power, so as to avoid future troubles!"
The judge took the opportunity to speak.
On the contrary, Yuan Shang hesitated, worried: "If Zhang He is taken down, who will command the soldiers and defend Yecheng for my lord?"
Shen Pei cupped his hands, and said with emotion: "Although the general is not as good as Zhang Yun, if he just sticks to it and does not fight, Pei is confident that he can command the army and protect the city of Ye for the lord!"
He has always liked dictatorship, and this is to take the opportunity to seize Zhang Yun's military power and take it as his own.
Yuan Shang was silent.
After a long time.
Yuan Shang sighed: "Now is the time for employing people. If there is no real evidence, but just relying on rumors and speculation, we will take Zhang He down. I am afraid that it will shake the morale of the army. Let's discuss this matter again."
A look of disappointment flashed across the judge's eyes.
At this moment.
Shenpei's nephew, Shenrong, hurried in and whispered something in Shenpei's ear.
The examiner's eyes lit up, and he hurriedly said: "My lord, the person I sent to monitor Zhang He received news. Just then, Liu Wu's messenger begged to see Zhang He, and sent Zhang He a letter written by Liu Wu!"
"Liu Wu's messenger?"
Yuan Shang immediately became alert and asked suspiciously: "Why did Liu Wu's messenger go to see Zhang Yun and send him a letter?"
The examiner said in a deep voice: "My lord, Zhang Yun is suspected of secretly communicating with Liu Wu. Could it be that Liu Wu gave him some instructions? If we ignore it, if the suspicion is true, the consequences will be disastrous!"
Yuan Shang's heart was shocked, and he shouted anxiously: "Speech Zhang Yun to come to see me!"
The guards ran away.
Not long.
Zhang He hurried over, cupped his hands and said, "My lord hastened to summon the general, what orders do you have?"
Yuan Shang's face was livid, and he asked coldly: "Zhang Junyi, I heard that Liu Wu actually sent an envoy to send you a personal letter. Is there such a thing?"
Zhang Yun's heart was shocked, and he suddenly raised his head to look at Yuan Shang, his brows could not help but frowned.
As soon as Liu Wu's messenger left, Yuan Shang summoned him to inquire, which shows that Yuan Shang has been secretly monitoring him.
The lord is monitoring the generals. This is obviously an expression of distrust, so how can it not make Zhang Xi unhappy.
Zhang Yun didn't like to get angry, so he had to cup his hands and said, "My lord is really well-informed. Yes, the king of Qi did send someone to send a letter to the last general."
"What did the letter say?"
Yuan Shang asked immediately.
Zhang He said: "It is nothing more than some words to recruit the junior general, and the latter will naturally refuse."
Yuan Shang was at a loss for words, so he could only look at the judge.
The judge turned his eyes, but said: "Where is the letter, can you let the master have a look?"
Yuan Shang nodded slightly, acquiescing to what the judge said.
Zhang Yun's face darkened, and he said displeasedly: "My lord, what does this mean? Could it be that you don't trust me, Zhang Yun?"
Yuan Shang didn't know how to deal with it for a while.
"General Zhang misunderstood."
"I have recently heard that there are many rumors in Yecheng that General Zhang secretly colluded with Liu Wu, which seriously affected General Zhang's reputation and the respect that the soldiers have for you."
"Now Liu Wu suddenly sent another messenger to deliver a letter to you, General Zhang. If rumors of this spread, it would definitely cause the soldiers to speculate and talk about it."
"My lord wants to read Liu Wu's autographed letter, just to use it as a means to prove your loyalty, General Zhang, and to quell the soldiers' comments on you."
"My lord is doing it for the good of General Zhang. How can the general live up to such good intentions!"
The trial match is indeed a counselor, and some high-sounding reasons made Zhang Yun so angry that he couldn't get angry.
Zhang He swallowed his saliva, and had no choice but to snort coldly: "I have a clear conscience, that Liu Wu's personal letter is on the last general's case, if my lord wants to read it, just ask someone to fetch it!"
Yuan Shang secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and immediately ordered the guards to run again quickly.
After a while, the letter was received, Yuan Shang pretended to take it, opened it casually, and then read it.
After a few glances, Yuan Shang's brows became deeper and deeper, and the suspicion in his eyes became more and more serious.
"boom"
Yuan Shang suddenly slapped the letter on the table, and said in a deep voice: "Zhang Yun, since you have a clear conscience, why did you smear many places on this letter? Is there some secret? Don't you want me to see it?"
Zhang He's face suddenly changed. .
