Three hundred and seventieth IX Mystery

"Brother Yongnian, I didn't expect that your acting skills have reached such a level of proficiency. We are really impressed."

Amidst the laughter, a person came out of the inner tent, it was Fa Zheng.

In the play just now, Fa Zheng's identity was suspicious and he did not appear, but he in the inner tent could clearly hear the conversation outside.

At this time, Nie Zefeng, with a smile on his face as he removed his chill, waved his hand to drive away the swordsmen and axemen.

Zhang Song shook his head, smiled, and said with emotion: "My lord, this plan is really wonderful. It can not only help the golden cicada escape from its shell, but also defraud Liu Zhang of 200,000 dendrobium of grain and grass. It is really wonderful."

Although Zhang Song was smart, he still failed to figure out the real purpose of Pang Tong's plan.

The three of them looked at each other, and Nie Zefeng smiled and said: "Yongnian, the beauty of Gu's plan is not only that, Gu also relies on this plan to break Yangguan and take Jiangzhou."

Break Yangguan and take Jiangzhou!

Zhang Song's expression perked up, full of surprise, and he hurriedly asked about the mystery.

Nie Zefeng glanced at Pang Tong, and Pang Tong fully informed Zhang Song of the true purpose of his plan.

Zhang Song, who knew the inside story, suddenly realized it and couldn't help but admire Pang Tong's wisdom.

"Everything is done, let's just wait for Liu Zhang to send food and grass, and then give Liu Zhang an unexpected surprise." Nie Zefeng, who stood with his hands behind his back, looked proud.

The principals and ministers in the tent were all in high spirits. They looked at each other and laughed loudly.

... While Nie Zefeng in the camp was happily hosting a banquet to greet Zhang Song who had escaped, Liu Zhang in Chengdu was faced with a table full of delicacies, but he couldn't eat anything.

Fear ruthlessly deprived Liu Zhang of his appetite.

He was really afraid that Zhang Song and Wang Lei would go there to no avail, and that Nie Zefeng would insist on attacking his Yizhou, and even Zhang Lu couldn't deal with him, so how could he have the confidence to resist the world-famous Nie Zefeng.

Liu Zhang, who was in distress, suddenly heard that his troops had come to report that Wang Lei was returning from an envoy to the Chu army in Jiangzhou.

Liu Zhang was in high spirits and was busy calling General Xuan to come in. But what surprised him was that Zhang Song and Wang Lei were the two who left, but only Wang Lei came back.

"Where is Zhang Yongnian? Why didn't he come back with you? What did Nie Zefeng say?" Liu Zhang, full of suspicion, asked impatiently.

Wang, who was so tired from all the travels, did not even have time to take a breath and hurriedly told the truth about what happened during his mission.

After hearing these words, Liu Zhang's tense nerves finally relaxed.

After Liu Zhang relaxed, he gritted his teeth and scolded Huang Quan, scolding this stupid man for almost causing trouble for Yizhou.

After scolding, Liu Zhang hurriedly said: "Send it to General Yan immediately and order him to immediately allocate 200,000 dendrobium from Jiangzhou's military rations and send it to the Chu army immediately to ask King Yan to appease his anger."

Six days passed in a blink of an eye. During these six days, Nie Zefeng did not wait for Liu Zhang's 200,000 dendrobium of grain and grass.

A large number of heavy weapons such as thunderbolt chariots and ballistae are taking advantage of this opportunity to continuously cross the Three Gorges from the rear and be transported to the Jiangzhou front line.

Nie Zefeng knew very well that Jiangzhou was just an obstacle on the road to conquering Chengdu. There were many fortified cities behind it, and it was unrealistic to conquer them wisely in every battle. I was afraid that it would only require several bloody storms.

As the sixth day approached, Wang Lei, who had been tired of his travels, finally returned from Chengdu to the Chu army camp east of Yangguan.

Wang Lei brought Liu Zhang's reply: Two hundred thousand grains and grass will be delivered from Jiangzhou City immediately. Please accept it.

Sure enough, as soon as Wang Lei arrived, more than a thousand soldiers came out of Yangguan City, escorting hundreds of carts of grain and grass, and slowly came towards the Chu army.

At the top of Yangguan City, veteran Yan Yan looked at the grain trucks slowly coming out one after another, with regret and indignation on his old face.

"I have a hundred thousand soldiers in Yizhou, but now I have to rely on sending food to ask the enemy to retreat. It really undermines the dignity of our Shu people. It's a shame that my lord agreed, alas -"

Yan Nie Zefeng's anger was useless. He gritted his teeth for a long time and could only sigh helplessly.

More than a thousand Shu soldiers and hundreds of grain trucks, under Yan Yan's helpless gaze, slowly arrived at the Chu army camp ten miles away.

There, Nie Zefeng was stationed at the gate of Maying, happily accepting the gift from Liu Zhang.

Seeing that all the grain trucks had been transported into the camp, Nie Zefeng immediately ordered the camp gate to be closed and winked at Zhou Cang.

Zhou Cang understood and rode away, while Nie Zefeng paused leisurely and returned to the Chinese army's tent.

As soon as Fang entered the account, Wang Lei followed him in eagerly, cupping his hands and saying: "Your Majesty Yan, two hundred thousand grains and grass have been delivered. I wonder when your Majesty plans to withdraw his troops?"

Nie Zefeng didn't answer, just lowered his head and sipped a glass of wine.

All around, Pang Tong was stroking his beard and smiling with a mysterious smile.

Zhang Song was also laughing, with a hint of ridicule in his smile.

Wang Lei, who was in the midst of this, felt that something was wrong with the surrounding atmosphere, as if a cold murderous aura was eroding towards him crazily.

Unable to help it, Wang Lei shuddered.

Nie Zefeng had finished drinking the wine and asked: "When did I promise to withdraw my troops?"

Wang Lei was startled for a moment, then he described the surprise and said anxiously: "A few days ago, the king clearly said that as long as my lord presented two hundred thousand dendrobium of grain and grass, the king would withdraw his troops. Yongnian was also present at that time. Yongnian, you

Say something quickly."

Wang Lei turned his eyes to Zhang Song and motioned for him to stop staring and speak quickly.

"Ahem." Zhang Song coughed a few times and said calmly: "Wang Zheng, I think you heard it wrong. I remember that at that time, the king only agreed to consider it. You know, consider it, which means that he might agree.

, or he may not agree.”

"Zhang Yongnian, how could you-"

Wang Lei was completely shocked. He never expected that Zhang Song would not fight for his lord's interests, but would instead help Nie Zefeng.

The frightened Wang Lei had not turned his head for a moment, and was so shocked that he did not know how to respond.

At this moment, Zhou Cang, covered in blood, strode in, cupped his hands and said, "My lord, the thousand Shu soldiers have been captured. Anyone who disobeys has been killed."

Wang Lei's body shook violently again, and his panic instantly turned into horror.

But Nie Zefeng had already stood up, and the frightening killing intent was already rolling out of his majestic body like a tide.

Looking at Nie Zefeng with murderous intent, and then at Zhang Song with a mysterious expression, the frightened Wang Lei's thoughts flew. Suddenly, three big words burst out in his mind:

"Fooled!"

Wang Lei, who wanted to understand the truth, glanced at Zhang Song fiercely, with a face full of shock and anger, and sternly scolded: "Zhang Song, I didn't expect that you betrayed the lord and took refuge in this person named Yan, you shameless person, you

Are you worthy of the kindness my lord has shown you?"

Facing Wang Lei's righteous rebuke, Zhang Song smiled more calmly, without any discomfort at all.

"Wang Lei, don't you understand? For someone with mediocre qualifications like you, Liu Zhang only needs to give you glory and wealth, and you will naturally be satisfied."

Zhang Song's tone became more solemn.

"But I, Zhang Song, don't care about glory and wealth. What I want is to be famous all over the world and go down in history. The only one who can give me this is a hero like King Yan. Liu Zhang is just a cowardly and self-defeating thief. He can give me this."

What!"

In front of everyone, Zhang Song expressed his ambition.

In fact, even though Zhang Song secretly took refuge with Nie Zefeng and sacrificed Xichuan, in Nie Zefeng's heart, subconsciously, he was still quite ashamed of Zhang Song's behavior.

After all, unlike Fazheng, Zhang Song was neither coldly treated nor suspected by Liu Zhang. According to common sense, Liu Zhang not only trusted Zhang Song, but also treated him well.

But now, Nie Zefeng understands that for outstanding people like Zhang Song, just a high official position and a generous salary cannot satisfy them at all. What they want is to carry out a great cause with great vigor.

Only a master of martial arts and strategy like Nie Zefeng can make their dreams come true.

Such a person is exactly what Nie Zefeng likes.

Wang Lei was stunned and at a loss. At this moment, he and Zhang Song seemed to be from two different worlds, and he couldn't understand what Zhang Song was thinking at all.

Wang Lei didn't want to understand. Despite his confusion, Wang Lei was only indignant.

"Zhang Song, you traitor who betrayed your master, you will die a good death! Mr. Yan, I have a hundred thousand soldiers in Yizhou, and there are as many fierce generals as clouds. No matter how cunning and cunning you are, you will never succeed——"

Stubborn, rude, and lacking any outstanding talent, Wang Lei's curses had already pushed him to a dead end.

Nie Zefeng couldn't help but listen to his shrewish curse, waved his hand and shouted: "Come here, push this rebellious guy out and kill him, so as to sacrifice the flag for the lonely expedition to Shu!"

Following the order, several fierce pro-soldiers dragged Wang Lei out, who was cursing endlessly.

After getting rid of Wang Lei, Nie Zefeng turned his attention to Zhou Cang: "Zifeng, the time has come. Just do what I told you before."

"General, I will obey the order." Zhou Cang complied with the order and strode away.

Then, Nie Zefeng sent an order to Huang Zhong, Zhao Yun and other generals, instructing them to order all the soldiers in the camps to be on standby. They would only wait for an order before launching a general attack on Yangguan.

...The bloodshed within the Chu army and the stern appearance at the top of Yangguan City are naturally unknown.

At this time, Yan Yan had already retreated from Guancheng and went back to his military tent to drink.

Liu Zhang was cowardly and submissive in asking for peace, which made the strong-tempered Yan Yan feel that his dignity had been damaged. He had no choice but to drink to drown his sorrows and express his inner anger.

While Yan Yan was drinking in the tent, the more than a thousand Shu soldiers transporting food had already returned to Yangguan dejectedly with hundreds of empty carts.

Seeing that it was his own sergeant who had returned, the primary school officer at the city head didn't ask any questions. He ordered the suspension bridge to be lowered and the city gate to be opened wide to let these brothers in.

Hundreds of empty cars squeaked across the suspension bridge, passed through the doorway, and began to make their way into the city.

It was getting late, and it was time for the soldiers on duty to change their shifts. They were just waiting to let these brothers into the city, and then they could change to eat and rest.
