Wei Yan made Zhao Wei have a cognition that although it was not completely wrong, it was slightly biased. Overall, it was not too problematic. For Liu Zhang and Pang Xi, the cognition based on the situation had already taken a completely different direction.

As the saying goes, hearing is false and seeing is true. Liu Zhang and Pang Xi saw with their own eyes that the soldiers of the General of the Western Expedition arrived in Guanghan and almost came closer. Naturally, they were in a panic. After hurriedly leaving Pang Xi to set up defenses and block the Western Expedition in the county, Liu Zhang rushed back to Chengdu and summoned all the ministers to discuss the matter.

At the beginning, Liu Zhang could generally numb himself, saying that the matter of expedition to the West was still far away, and the future was to talk about the future. Now, enjoying the enjoyment is the best. Under Guanghan City, Liu Zhang suddenly realized that the blades of the expedition to the West were so close to him!

How to resist, or how to delay the approaching of the conquested troops, became a problem that Liu Zhang couldn't wait to solve...

Liu Zhang washed clean, changed into a wide robe and big sleeves, and put on a Tongtian crown. If you look at the appearance alone, it is still quite majestic. However, the slightly trembling hands inside the sleeves truly reflect Liu Zhang's inner world.

The troops and horses in the west have arrived at the county!

Once the county passes, it will be the hinterland of Sichuan and Sichuan!

Isn’t this equivalent to having already knocked down your doorstep?

Liu Zhang's mouth twitched involuntarily, hoping that someone could make some good words with deafening expressions, but now what he heard was still the buzzing discussions of the ministers...

When it comes to Sichuan and Sichuan talents, Liu Zhang did not have many under his tent, but Liu Zhang looked at the ministers under his seat and felt no sense of security in his heart.

"Ruo Xiaozhi is still there..." Liu Zhang sighed slightly.

Fazheng is very capable, but now Fazheng is not in Chengdu. Speaking of which, Fazheng also has a taste of self-deprecation in southern Sichuan. First, Fazheng, who was born in Guanzhong, belongs to an alien faction in Sichuan and Shu, and cannot talk to the original Sichuan and Shu school. Second, Fazheng has a relatively tough personality and cannot stand the appearance of Pang Xi and Zhao Wei fighting for power and profit, and is difficult to manage. In addition, southern Sichuan has been eroded by the barbarians of Yunnan, and from time to time, barbarians from various caves come out to the mountains to make teeth sacrifices to improve their lives and carry out ethnic integration, so they are not disturbed. So a general is needed to stay in southern Sichuan. Fazheng recommends himself, which is a place to fight for power and profit that makes him disgusted.

The foreign faction is willing to guard the gateway for itself, so the Sichuan and Shu faction is naturally happy to see this, so the evaluation of Fa Zheng is higher, even surpassing Pang Xi. The implication is naturally very simple, just to tell Pang Ximing directly. However, for Pang Xi, such behavior is simply not heard.

Pang Xi is now in Yuxian with Wu Yi, Yang Hong and others in defense, so now in Chengdu is the only one in Chengdu prefect Dong He, who is not only Zhang Song, Mianzhu Ling Fei Shi, Supervisor Li Hui, and Zhang Yi, Meng Da, Wu Lan and other military generals.

It’s not too many people to talk about the number of people, but it’s not too many. At least it’s a luxurious lineup compared to the habitual offenders of big ears.

However, it is of no use.

Liu Zhang's father Liu Yan was originally a descendant of Liu Yu, the King of Lu Gong of the Western Han Dynasty. He was appointed as the Central Secretary because of his identity as a royal family. He served as the magistrate of Luoyang, the governor of Jizhou, the prefect of Nanyang, Zongzheng, and Taichang. Therefore, Liu Zhang lived in an environment of clans and officials since childhood. He did not worry about food and clothing, nor did he worry about survival, nor did he worry about his way out, just like a flower in a greenhouse, and everything was done by the Qing guests in the palace.

As the saying goes, eating all day long and having no intention, and Liu Zhang is too lazy to even play chess, so how could Liu Zhang, the delicate flower that grew up in a greenhouse, withstand the rain, snow, autumn frost in the turbulent times?

Or maybe this is because the personnel of the Sichuan and Shu faction are not very optimistic about Liu Zhang.

The people of Dongchuan support Liu Zhang, and the Sichuan Sect knows it well. Because Liu Zhang himself also has the characteristics required by the Sichuan Sect, the Sichuan Sect and the Dongchuan Sect have not had much difference in supporting Liu Zhang, because in fact, in the hearts of the Sichuan Sect and the Dongchuan Sect, is Liu Zhang's role...

It's just a little better than a statue.

"My dear friends!" Liu Zhang coughed and said loudly, "Is there a decisive plan?"

The originally chaotic discussions in the hall were silent in vain, and then they fell into an unspeakable silence. Almost everyone turned into wood carvings, looking at their noses and mouths, silently and motionless.

There were some thin beads of sweat on Liu Zhang's forehead, and then they gathered at his temples, flowing down his hair, and finally dripped on the brocade robe, making the brocade robe look dark round shapes.

Dong He, the prefect of Chengdu, was still on the side, couldn't stand it, so he broke the silence and said, "Master, are you going to fight, or want to be harmonious?"

Liu Zhang stared at Dong He with a little confused, and angrily asked me, why did you ask me? Shouldn’t you come up with an idea? Otherwise, what would you do if you asked you to come here? Then, you didn’t say a word, but asked me what should I do?

Dong He glanced at Liu Zhang helplessly, wanted to speak but stopped, and finally sighed slightly.

Liu Zhang turned his head and looked at the others again.

Zhang Song smiled slightly and said, "Issue you not anxious... It would be better to go to Guanghan to meet with the Western Expedition... The Western Expedition to Sichuan was just a name for the brother of the messenger. I was afraid that it would be deceived by the brother of the messenger, so I raised an army to go south. This is an injustice! If someone sees the Western Expedition, he should scold the injustice and the non-righteousness of the righteousness, or he can rely on his unruly tongue to make the Western Expedition repent, and the two families are kind..."

Liu Zhang was overjoyed and hurriedly said, "So good! So good! I'll ask Zi Qiao to have a hard time..."

Zhang Song raised his eyebrows slightly, showed some meaningful smiles, bowed his head and said, "For the envoy, you should not be blessed with hardship..."

It seemed that after getting a solution to the problem, Liu Zhang lost interest in continuing to explore, hurriedly ended the meeting that made him feel very uncomfortable, and went back to the hall.

Not long after he collapsed, Liu Zhang heard the servant say that Chengdu prefect Dong He came...

Liu Zhang had to get up again, change his clothes, and went to the side hall to see Dong He and asked, "Dong Aiqing, what's the matter with me?"

Dong He is also older and his temper is somewhat relieved. He sighed and said, "Is it true that I am seeking peace?"

Liu Zhang was stunned for a moment and said, "Dong Aiqing, what does this mean?"

Dong He whispered: "If it is an easy thing, the lord will give us any advice. However, this is a military affairs, which is related to life and death... How can it be... How can it be... Isn't this... Oh, the lord should think twice..."

Liu Zhang said in confusion: "Dong Aiqing's intention... Zhang Biejia... Could it be that he is lying to Yu?"

Dong He shook his head and said, "It may not be necessary to cheat, but... the lord should think twice first. It is a war and a harmony. There is always a conclusion before it can be done... I will say this, and I hope the lord will think twice, think twice..."

After saying that, Dong He didn't stop for a long time, so he bowed and left, leaving Liu Zhang staring blankly.

What does this mean?

Liu Zhang watched Dong He go away and wanted to call him back several times, but after thinking about it, he finally gave up. He frowned and wandered around the hall with his hands behind his back.

Above the hall, a plaque with the inscription "Ting Tao" was hung. It was written by Liu Zhang's father Liu Yan. Because there was a piece of bamboo planted on the side of this hall. Whether it was windy or rainy, the bamboo leaves rubbed each other, like clear waves. Of course, when Liu Yan wrote this plaque, Dong Zhuo entered Beijing, and the profound meaning contained in it may not be like the simple reason Liu Yan said on the surface, but Liu Zhang could not understand it.

Just like now, Liu Zhang was irritated and turned around, but still didn't quite understand what Dong He meant.

Is it necessary to start a war?

Or is Zhang Song an unreliable person and cannot be believed?

The chaotic thoughts were like a mess, blocking Liu Zhang's head, making Liu Zhang unable to think clearly. However, Liu Zhang's pain did not last long, because after Pang Xi set up defenses in the county, he rushed back to Chengdu overnight, and after a hurry to wash up, he rushed to see Liu Zhang...

Because Pang Xi also knew that if he was not optimistic about this slut at home, he might tear the house at any time.

When Liu Zhang saw Pang Xi, he relieved his heavy responsibilities and quickly talked aside the matter he had discussed with everyone over the past two days. However, Liu Zhang still had some thoughts and did not say the words that Dong He persuaded him.

When Pang Xi heard this, he couldn't help but sigh. The two Hahas couldn't get away for a moment or leave. After only a few days of leaving, the situation had begun to change in an unfavorable direction...

"Lord..." Pang Xigong bowed and said, "Has Zhang Biejia set off? Why haven't he met?"

Liu Zhang nodded and said, "It must have been set... I heard yesterday that I had left..."

Pang Xi was powerless to complain, but on the other hand, wasn’t it because of Liu Zhang’s choice? Therefore, Pang Xi didn’t say anything. It was probably because Zhang Song was worried about going back to the county road, so he deliberately took a detour.

Pang Xi looked at Liu Zhang and explained patiently: "Lord, Zhang Biejia is a man from Sichuan and Shu. His family business is here, so he naturally does not want to be affected by the war, so he must persuade the lord to be the best... Therefore, Zhang Biejia wanted to make peace with the West, all because of his own concerns, not because of the lord's thoughts..."

Liu Zhang suddenly realized it and couldn't help but say angrily: "I treat him well, why do you treat him like this!"

Is this a question of who is good at treating?

Pang Xi didn't want to say more about this aspect, after all, there are more important things to do now. Zhang Song is from Sichuan and Shu, so he must choose to be inclined to Sichuan and Shu. It is not surprising to prepare for peace talks with the Western Expedition, because in the concepts of Zhang Song and others, Liu Zhang is also an outside ruler and there is no difference from the Western Expedition. Just or unjust is often just verbally speaking.

Pang Xi is different. As a Dongchuan faction, it must be dependent on Liu Zhang, because after all, what is in his hand is real and reliable. If it were a ruler, the interests of the Dongchuan faction would definitely suffer losses, and at least it would not have such a big advantage as it is now.

Therefore, Pang Xi really wanted to protect Liu Zhang.

Of course the premise is that Liu Zhang can keep it, if he can't keep it...

Pang Xi was silent for a moment and said, "Lord, now the expedition to the west is very powerful, and it is located in the three states, connecting the north and south. It should not be underestimated. We are only the power of one state. If we reject it, we may not last long..."

Liu Zhang almost came over in one breath. He coughed twice before he could calm down and asked, "Pang...Pang Aiqing... Why did he say this again? Didn't he just say it..."

Pang Xi said righteously: "I am different from Zhang Biejia. Zhang Biejia seeks peace because he is his clan. If he wants peace, he is his lord!"

Liu Zhang blinked. Is these two harmony different to me? Could it be that there are three or four ways to write the word "harmony"?

Pang Xi said: "If you enter the west and enter Sichuan, you will definitely support your lord's brother. The lord needs to rely on others' breath... If you follow someone's plan, you can use the power of others to resist the west and the lord's victory in the north. You can sit firmly in the river, and you will not be able to lose anything!"

Liu Zhang suddenly became interested and urged him to make Pang Xi speak quickly.

Pang Xi didn't take it too much, and pointed it with his hand and said, "Lord, please ask for help from me to the west. Why can't we ask for help from outside? If there is strong support to Sichuan, will we be afraid of the troops and horses in the west?"

"Seeking for help?" Liu Zhang asked in confusion, "Where can I ask for help?"

Pang Xi seemed confident and said: "Liu Jingzhou is in Badong! I heard that Liu Jingzhou is wise and kind, and has long been known as the eight horses. He now controls the wealthy land of Jingxiang, with 100,000 armors, and has also become a royal family with the lord, and has the same bloodline as his lord, so he should be aided..."

"Liu Jingzhou?" Liu Zhang scratched his head and said, "If it was Liu Jingzhou...if..."

Pang Xi smiled and said, "Liu Jingzhou is a rich place, which is completely different from the expedition to the west, so... if you get help from him, you can rest assured and don't worry..." Pang Xi meant that Liu Jingzhou's own land was so good, so how could he think of Liu Zhang and other small possessions?

Of course, this is just Pang Xi's statement. As for whether Liu Biao is so generous and full of the spirit of the hero Intner, it depends on his opinion.

Liu Zhang didn't have many ideas. Hearing what Pang Xi said, he felt that it seemed to make some sense, but after thinking about it, he said, "I heard that the general of the Western Expedition studied in Jingxiang in his early years and married the Huang family in Miannan. This Jingxiang person may not be appropriate, right?"

Pang Xi laughed loudly, stroking his hands and said, "The lord is indeed extremely intelligent! This is the most amazing thing!"

Although Liu Zhang was not sure about it, he also smiled in agreement, as if he had indeed seen through everything in the world.

"When Liu Jingzhou was also alone in Xiangyang, so why did he be with the previous lord..." Pang Xi did not make things difficult for Liu Zhang, and immediately explained, "I heard that the Huang clan in Miannan pretended to be famous in the west and occupied Wancheng. How could Liu Jingzhou not complain? There were many people who went to the west to fight with the west, so how could Liu Jingzhou not worry? The Jingxiang gentry was always like the west, and it was very powerful. How could Liu Jingzhou not be angry? Therefore, if the lord asks for help from Liu Jingzhou, Liu Jingzhou would definitely come to help! In this way, the lord has strong support from the side, and can fight and be harmonious, and should not be controlled by others!"
