The Warriors of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 249 The Unbelievable Liu Zhang
Outside Chengdu County, an undisciplined team approached in twos and threes. The armor of the leading general was worn out and his head was downcast. Anyone who saw it knew that these people had returned after a defeated battle.

This group of people were the Dongzhou soldiers sent by Liu Zhang to conquer Zhang Lu a few days ago, Pang Xi and Yu Wei, but at this time Pang Xi was still alive and came back alive, but Yu Wei had already died in Hanzhong.

This time it was really a disastrous defeat. Dongzhou soldiers suffered heavy losses, and even my own soldiers were killed and injured a lot. Hey, I underestimated the enemy.Pang Xi sighed inwardly after seeing Chengdu County.

This time Liu Zhang despised Zhang Lu, and of course Pang Xi and Yu Wei also despised Zhang Lu. They always felt that Zhang Lu's mother, Mrs. Lu, was nagging, and Zhang Lu himself was also like this. Titans fight it?

So this time Pang Xi and Yu Wei learned a lesson, Yu Wei was killed, Pang Xi was luckier, but almost all the soldiers underneath were killed or injured.

Liu Zhang got the news early in the morning, and after the defeat of the army, Pang Xi asked people to send the letter quickly.

"Ah, how dare Zhang Lu'er be so arrogant!" Liu Zhang viciously threw the wine glass on the desk.

Just at this moment, after taking a bath, Pang Xi, who had changed into a Zen robe with a straight train, walked over under the guidance of his servants.

"You step back." Liu Zhang waved his hand, and the servant left in a hurry, he didn't want to be punished by Liu Zhang's bad luck.

"General Pang, you have suffered." Liu Zhang said when he saw Pang Xi immediately went up to hold his hands.

Liu Zhang is very good at acting. Of course, a qualified politician must be a first-class actor. Their old Liu family has acting skills in their blood.

However, this trick was very effective, and Pang Xi immediately worshiped with moist eyes: "Pang Xi failed the high expectations of the lord, and I ask the lord to punish him!"

"Hey, Zhang Lu'er is really very cunning. It's not a crime of war. I think that Zhang Lu'er used the theory of ghosts and gods to confuse the people, causing the land of Hanzhong to become smoky, and my heart aches." Liu Zhang said excitedly: " Are you willing to go out again for me and save the people of Hanzhong from the fire and water?"

What Liu Zhang said was righteous and dignified. Of course, if it was changed to a straightforward meaning, he wanted Zhang Lu's territory, and the rest of the people and the like were false.

As soon as Pang Xi heard that he had another chance to go to war, he immediately jumped up like he was on a stimulant, and he almost slapped his chest to show his bravery: "Don't worry, my lord, I will take the head of Zhang Lu's son." return!"

"Okay, I can go to General Pang to recruit [-] soldiers and horses and go to another battle. I hope the general can get rid of Zhang Lu's rebellion for the people of Hanzhong." Liu Zhang handed the soldier talisman to Pang Xi again, he was a little unbelieving.

"Here!"

Pang Xi held the soldier talisman with some excitement and his body trembled slightly. He didn't know whether it was because of excitement or worry.

In Dongfang Sheng's house, Dongfang Sheng was lying on a bamboo chair basking in the sun. In the hall, Zhuge Liang and Lu Yi, two guys of about the same age, were studying the battlefield sand table.

Xiao Wuhui pouted and played with sand in the yard with his bare buttocks up. It was the fine white sand specially obtained by Dongfang Sheng, which was perfect for playing beach games.

Two brothers, Dongfang Xuan and Dongfang Pi, sat on the special wooden chairs and watched Dongfang Wuhui playing with the white sand.

"one piece"

"bump!"

"Nonsense, it's all the same, give me the money!"

A few women in the family were playing mahjong. It was a new gadget created by Dongfang Sheng after they got tired of playing poker. These small squares carved with moso bamboo are more suitable for women than poker. As soon as they made it, Su Fang They couldn't put it down, and now Su Fang, Zhang Ping, Diao Chan, and Cai Yan happened to be at the same table, playing mahjong almost every day.

What a beautiful picture of home comfort, Dongfang Sheng couldn't help but sigh in his heart.

"My lord, Liu Zhang once again gave Pang Xi a military talisman, and asked him to recruit soldiers to conquer Zhang Lu again." After Chen Zhong walked in, the harmonious atmosphere was immediately broken.

Although Chen Chong's voice was low, Zhuge Liang and Lu Yi, who were practicing the sand table in the hall, pricked up their ears like rabbits, so how could they not hear it?
"This Liu Zhang really has a bad temper and dares to send Pang Xi?" Lu Yi leaned towards Dongfang Sheng and said.

Zhuge Liang and Lu Yi were at odds, so when he heard Lu Yi say this, he immediately laughed and said, "Do you think Liu Zhang thinks this way? Now he trusts Pang Xi the most, and Pang Xi is also his father-in-law. , but if Liu Zhang uses the lord to conquer Zhang Lu, then Zhang Lu will definitely lose."

Although Lu Yi and Zhuge Liang were at odds, once he heard Zhuge Liang's words, he stopped refuting. Both of them felt that if Dongfang Sheng went to conquer Zhang Lu, he would definitely win.

It's a pity that Liu Zhang now thinks that Dongfang Sheng is a toothless tiger without Dongzhou soldiers. He still wants to deal with Dongfang Sheng after finishing Zhang Lu. How can he let Dongfang Sheng control the army again?
Dongfang Sheng pondered and said, "Even if I go to attack Zhang Lu, I'm afraid it won't be effective for a while."

"Oh, my lord brother, why is he so self-deprecating? Zhang Lu's ability is mediocre?" Zhuge Liang said a little unconvinced. In his eyes, Zhang Lu was just a magic stick who deceived the people by relying on ghosts and gods.

Of course, at that time, the Five Dou Rice Sect was not popular, and everyone didn't know much about Zhang Lu. Although Zhuge Liang was smart, he was not a god. Of course, he didn't understand how terrifying the combination of religion and government would be.

Seeing Dongfang Sheng's expression, Lu Yi knew that Zhang Lu was not Yi Yi's generation, maybe it was because of his family experience that made him calmer, so Lu Yi asked curiously: "Brother thinks that Zhang Lu is actually difficult to deal with? "

"Zhang Lu's strength lies in the fact that he uses sects to control people's hearts. He is the leader, and all his followers are his followers. Those believers have a kind of blind worship for the leader, so ordinary military strikes will never completely defeat him, unless ..." Dongfang Sheng explained patiently.

"Unless what?" Zhuge Liang asked.

"Haha, I have to go see Zheng Du." Dongfang Sheng said haha, he had already made arrangements for Hanzhong Dongfang Sheng, but now he doesn't want to expose his arrangements prematurely.

It's not that he can't trust Zhuge Liang and Lu Yi, it's just that it's not suitable to reveal his arrangements at this stage, because Dongfang Sheng will not consider moving Zhang Lu until Yizhou falls into his hands.

When Zhuge Liang and Lu Yi heard that Dongfang Sheng was going to see Zheng Du, they stopped entanglement immediately.

"Let Gan Ning stop training for a day and come with me." Dongfang Sheng said to Chen Zhong.

"Here!" Chen Zhong took the order to leave.

Although Dongfang Sheng has been dormant during this period, he has never slackened in the training of the army. Zhao Yun, Zhang He, Wang Hu, and Badao, none of them have slackened their training because there is no war. This is Dongfang Sheng's request.
