The 140,000 Jin troops led by Shi Bao not only stopped decisively after arriving in Fu County, but also chose to establish a camp on the east bank of the Fushui River, which was headed by Sun Chu, and gave the main force of the Han army on the west bank to cross the Fushui River first before launching an attack on the Jin army camp.

The army's troops had as many as 140,000 troops, while the Han army had 40,000 troops on the front line, but in fact, because they had to separate troops to guard two important cities, Mianzhu and Luocheng, they could only invest more than 30,000 people to fight. With such a huge gap in force, Shi Bao actually chose such a conservative and cautious tactic. The sons of the Jin court who were dedicated to gilding and making contributions should of course be dissatisfied with the dissatisfaction of Shi Bao, the ninja turtle, and despise Shi Bao, the ninja turtle. For a moment, the generals of the Jin army were inevitably full of complaints, strange words, and countless protesters and ridicule.

In fact, the most dissatisfied was Wang Chen, a military supervisor from the Wang family in Taiyuan. He didn't say anything on the surface, but Wang Chen directly issued a warning on his secret message to Sima Yan, worried that Shi Bao's move was to gain military power for a long time and to use time to strengthen his influence in the army so that he would make a mistake in the future. At the same time, the Han army traitor He Pan's rumor, and the nursery rhyme "The big horse in the palace is almost a donkey, and the big stone cannot be suppressed." Wang Chen also secretly reported to Sima Yan to know.

Fortunately, at this moment of undercurrent, the secret envoy of the Eastern Wu side contacted Shi Bao with Lu Kang's letter, allowing Shi Bao to know the important news that the Eastern Wu back-spinned allies sent troops to attack Nanzhong again. Shi Bao, who was worried about the general protesting against the tactics, also breathed a sigh of relief. He quickly summoned the generals to make the news public, so that the generals could wait for the rear of the Han army to be in a hurry and would be in chaos without fighting.

After learning about this situation, Wen Yang, Huangfu Chang and Sun Shuo and other Jin army civil and military officials were also overjoyed and said fortunately: "Tianyou Dajin, I didn't expect that the dog thieves in the Eastern Wu would turn their faces with the pseudo-Han thieves so quickly. Now it's better. As long as Zhang Zhi's son receives the news of the Nanzhong emergency, he will definitely be more eager to fight quickly than us. We have a strong camp to defend and can be invincible on the battlefield."

Unlike the poor generals, the Central Master's children represented by Sun Chu, Xun Ji and Guo Zhang all looked bad and refused to admit that Shi Bao's turtle tactics were correct. After blinking his eyes, Guo Huai's grandson Guo Zhang also said: "If this situation is true, then we must advance to Mianzhu as soon as possible to combat Zhang Zhi's rebel thieves. Because as we all know, Nanzhong is the place of origin of instant noodles, candy and lunch meat. If we quell the rebellion as soon as possible and take advantage of the situation to advance to Nanzhong, once the Eastern Wu thieves army takes over Nanzhong, all the delicacies produced in Nanzhong will be added to the Eastern Wu dog thieves."

Guo Zhang opened this mouth, and his cousin Guo Yu, Sun Chu and others immediately agreed, deliberately sang against the tune and firmly advocated a decisive battle south as soon as possible, and then quickly entered the army to seize the production of instant noodles and lunch meat. Shi Bao knew that these middle-aged children were deliberately making trouble but could do anything, but just calculated for a moment and said, "Come on, arrange an envoy immediately to send the letter from Lu Kang to Zhang Zhi's thief, so that Zhang Zhi's thief knew that the Eastern Wu had betrayed him."

"Master, do you want to contact Zhang Zhi's son?" Sun Chu asked immediately alertly.

"I want to disrupt Zhang Zhi's military morale." Shi Bao replied coldly: "Although Zhang Zhi's son is very likely to have known this news, when he sees Lu Kang's husband telling me about this situation, he will be in a mess. He understands that I will definitely confront him for a long time and wait patiently for his emergency in the rear. In this way, he will definitely be more eager to seek a war."

"So that's the case." Sun Chu responded with a sneer, saying, "Then you are relieved, please let the general arrange it yourself."

After looking at the vigilant expressions that the children of Zhongzheng were generally showing, Shi Bao swallowed a coward again. Then, in order to prove his openness and selflessness, Shi Bao immediately announced a minor official and handed Lu Kang's letter to the minor official in public, and told him to take a car south to Mianzhu immediately and present the letter to Zhang Zhi in person. He also ordered: "When you see Zhang Zhi's traitor, just hand over the letter to him. He will understand what I mean, and then come back immediately, and don't delay for a long time."

It was also coincidental that after the minor official left, when Shi Bao was about to announce the meeting, a personal soldier suddenly came to report outside the tent and said to Shi Bao: "Report to the Grand Marshal, there is a person outside the camp who claimed to be a confidant family member of the pseudo-Han thief army who encouraged him to study and engage in He Pan. He came to pay homage to the Grand Marshal on the order of his head of the family, and said that there were very important secret letters to be submitted to the Grand Marshal. The camp officer would like to ask the Grand Marshal, will he allow that person to enter the camp?"

"Mr. He sent someone to contact us again?" Sun Chu was overjoyed and rushed to say, "Take him in quickly, he must have sent the important military information of Zhang Zhi's thief army."

Shi Bao's personal soldiers did not dare to say anything, but looked at Shi Bao with a pitiful expression. Shi Bao suppressed his anger and first gave a wink at his young son Shi Chong, who was already in a blue face, signaling him to calm down, and then said: "Take He Pan's family, I want to see, what tricks does this perverted man play?"

The personal soldiers then quickly sang their promise, but Sun Chu said dissatisfiedly: "Is the Grand Marshal too much? Mr. He is loyal and righteous, and he informs us of the important military information of the thief army regardless of the danger. Why did the Grand Marshal insist that he was a fraudulent surrender?"

"Just because he hasn't gotten his head yet, I can conclude that he was surrendering!" Shi Bao couldn't bear it anymore and said loudly: "Sun Chanjun didn't think about it? If He Pan really surrendered, there was really a traitor in our army. This traitor was still an important figure. Then He Pan's rebellion against Zhang Zhi's thief army must have been told by this traitor to Zhang Zhi's thief. How could Zhang Zhi's thief let him go? So how could he let him contact us secretly?"

Still after discovering this logical problem, Sun Chucai shut his mouth helplessly. Then, a middle-aged man was taken to the central army tent. While saluting Shi Bao, he presented a letter saying: "Little man He Qiao, I will pay homage to the old general at the order of the head of the family He Pan. This is the handwritten letter from the head of the villain. Please receive it."

Without further ado, before He Qiao finished speaking, Sun Chu and other Zhongzheng's children had already focused their attention on the letter. Shi Bao was secretly angry when he saw it, and simply said, "Sun Jun, you are joining the army, you can read it first."

After hesitating for a moment, he couldn't help but curiosity in his heart. Sun Chu took the letter two steps forward and opened it to read it carefully. As he looked, Sun Chu opened his mouth wide in surprise and blurted out in surprise: "How is that possible?"

"Zi Jing, why are you so surprised?"

The military supervisor Wang Chen asked calmly, but what Wang Chen never dreamed of was that Sun Chu actually replied: "Wang Jianjun, He Pan's husband reported in the letter, saying that you are a traitor who secretly colluded with Zhang Zhi's thief!"

Hearing this, Wang Chen was of course stunned, and there was an immediate uproar in the tent. Wen Yang, Shi Chong and other Shi Bao's confidants gloat, but the Zhongzheng children were all speechless. Then, after Sun Chu came to his senses, he kicked He Qiao who came to deliver the letter to the ground and roared: "A man, he is so brave. He actually dares to send a book of surrender to slander our Wang Jianjun. How many heads do you have?"

"General, you are wronged. The villain is just a sender. This matter has nothing to do with the villain."

He Qiao's defense attracted Sun Chu's continued beating. Guo Zhang, who was eager to please Wang Chen, even drew his sword to kill He Qiao. Fortunately, Wang Chen himself shouted in time: "General Guo, stop, this matter is too strange, and you cannot rush to kill the messenger."

After saying that, Wang Chen asked someone to take He Qiao out for a while, and then asked Shi Bao: "Master, can you let the lower officials take a look at this letter?"

Unexpectedly, the person He Pan slandered was Wang Chen. Shi Bao was of course happy in his heart, and nodded generously and said, "Of course, please feel free to supervise."

He said thank you very calmly. He took the damn letter from Sun Chu and went to take a closer look. Wang Chen saw that He Pan first reported the current situation of the Han army in the letter, saying that Zhang Zhi had learned about the news of the Eastern Wu's back-surgence of Nanzhong through the channels of the Han army's partial division. He also said that Zhang Zhi had never expected that the Eastern Wu would turn against him so quickly. He left almost no army to guard the rear in Nanzhong, and Wei County might fall at any time. Therefore, Zhang Zhi was extremely anxious and was already discussing a plan to take the initiative to go north to fight the Jin army. He advised Shi Bao not to rush to the south, just wait patiently in Fu County.

Then the most important thing was that He Pan reported in the letter, saying that Zhang Zhi was discussing with everyone and took the initiative to go north and made a mistake. He told the secret contact of Wang Chen, the military supervisor of the Jin army, and was also preparing to find ways to contact Wang Chen and ask Wang Chen to help the Han army take down the Jin army's camp. In addition, He Pan also reported the Han army's approximate deployment of the troops.

After all, he was a child of aristocratic families who were well educated. After carefully reading this letter, Wang Chen not only did not make an anxious argument, but instead closed his eyes and calmly thought. After a moment, Wang Chen showed a gentle smile and said, "If you don't tell me, it seems that He Pan's previous secret report is indeed true. There is indeed an important traitor hidden in our army, and he has indeed obtained a secret contact with Zhang Zhi'er."

"What does Wang Jianjun mean?" Sun Chu asked in confusion.

"Zi Jing, don't you understand this?" Wang Chen asked with a smile, and said confidently: "The traitor among us has secretly informed Zhang Zhi'er of He Pan's rebellion. He Pan's identity has been exposed, so Zhang Zhi'er threatened He Pan's life and forced He Pan to write this fake letter to slander the official, and at the same time confusing our judgment and covering up the traitor among us."

"The military supervisor is right!" Sun Chu slapped his thighs and said excitedly: "That's right, it must be so. Our traitor must have reported the secret to Zhang Zhi'er, so that Zhang Zhi'er knew that He Pan was our inner support. That's why Zhang Zhi'er used a knife to force He Pan to write this letter to slander Wang Jianjun, and also cover up the traitor among us!"

He shouted excitedly, and Sun Chu couldn't wait to snatch the letter and hand it over to the gang of Zhongzheng's children in the tent of the Central Army. As a result, the Zhongzheng's children nodded after reading it. They all said that the letter must have been written by Zhang Zhi forcing He Pan, and He Pan's identity must have been betrayed by the traitors of the Jin army. Wang Hun, who was considered uncle Wang Chen, bowed and said, "Master, the senior official is willing to protect Wang Jianjun's innocence for his whole family. This letter must have been written by Zhang Zhi's son to slander Wang Jianjun."

"We are willing to protect us."

The children of the Central Command bowed their hands, all of whom expressed their belief that Wang Chen was shamelessly slandered. Shi Bao smiled slightly and said, "What's the hurry? I haven't read the letter yet, so I'll take it up and let me see what the letter is."

Xun Ji Changnuo, who was holding the letter in his hand, quickly walked forward. However, when he was about to hand the letter to Shi Bao, Xun Ji accidentally glanced at a line of text on the letter, and quickly took it back and looked carefully. Then he shouted as if he had discovered a new world: "Look, everyone, this letter contains mystery. The text on it is read from left to right, and the four words on the top are - something has been exposed!"

Hearing this, Sun Chu and other middle-class men quickly came forward to read it together. Seeing that the line on the top of the letter was indeed the four words "Someone has been exposed" read from left to right. Sun Chu and others were surprised and shouted, "Someone has been exposed! That's right, these four words! It must be Mr. He who is telling us that his identity has been leaked. We are telling us not to believe the content of this letter."

The matter was related to himself, so Wang Chen of course quickly went up to read the letter. Seeing that He Pan was indeed using code words to explain the letter was fake, Wang Chen was relieved and said hurriedly: "Look carefully and see if there are any code words."

Sun Chu and others quickly agreed, and when they carefully searched for other code words, they soon found that the bottom line of the letter also had four keywords from left to right. Sun Chu also shouted excitedly: "The bottom line is Zhongrong, the inner line! The traitor among us is called Zhongrong! The name is..."

After calling here, Sun Chu stopped suddenly and immediately turned his surprised gaze to Shi Bao, whose name is Zhongrong. All the other middle-class children were like this, but Wang Chen remained silent and sneered in his heart.

No matter how old Yu was, his shocked expression still appeared on Shi Bao's face. In panic, Shi Bao quickly snatched the damn letter and opened it to watch it. After reading the general content, he quickly confirmed that the letter contained two code words "Someone has been exposed" and "Inner Responsible Zhongrong". Shi Bao was so angry that he laughed out loud and said, "Good means, good means! No wonder the Shu people rumored that Zhang Zhi was rebellious and Zhuge Liang was resurrected. It seems that it is not groundless. Such a treacherous method is indeed comparable to Zhuge Villageman! Haha, hahahaha! Awesome! Awesome!"

The children of a large group of officials did not say anything, and were waiting patiently for Shi Bao to react next. Shi Bao was furious when he saw it and roared: "What are you watching me do? Do you really suspect that I and Zhang Zhi's rebels secretly colluded with him, held their own troops, and were ready to divide the land of Shu equally with Zhang Zhi's son?"

"The General of the Imperial College dare not wait." Sun Chu replied with a smile: "But for such a big thing, I still have to ask the Grand Marshal to give an explanation to the court and the General of the Imperial College."

"What explanation do I need to give you?"

Shi Bao roared in anger, and subconsciously grabbed the letter and tore it to pieces, roaring: "Just relying on a small piece of advice to study, I wrote a piece..."

"Master--!"

Sun Shuo's anxious shout was a step late, and he pulled it out. The letter written on the white silk had been torn in half by Shi Bao in extreme anger. When Sun Shuo saw it, he hurriedly shouted: "Master, you can't tear it, otherwise you can't even clear the water if you jump into the Yellow River!"

Shi Bao was stunned, and then he realized that his move to tear up the letter was suspected of evidence of destruction. He quickly stopped the next move to tear up the letter and did not dare to yell again. Sun Shu also quickly bowed to everyone and said, "Everyone, please make a certificate. The commander tear up the letter because he was angry, and it was not intended to destroy this letter."

Hearing this, the civil and military generals of the Jin army, who were born in poor families, nodded one by one, but the civil and military generals of the Central Master did not say anything. Only Sun Chu smiled and said, "Yes, I'm anxious, I'm anxious."

Shi Bao didn't dare to speak anymore, and he thought for a long time before handing the letter to Wang Chen, saying, "Mr. Supervisor, please let you deal with it."

"Abide by the commander of the Grand Marshal." Wang Chen answered calmly, then took the letter, carefully folded it into his arms, and asked again: "Master, what should I do next?"

He hesitated for a moment, although he knew that Wang Chen would definitely send this damn letter to Luoyang to make a small report, Shi Bao still said with a dark face for the sake of strategic overall situation: "The main force is not moving, the cavalry is divided into three teams, and takes turns to attack south, raiding the village manors around Mianzhu, killing me when I see people, burning my house when I see them, completely turning the surrounding area of ​​Mianzhu into scorched earth, forcing Zhang Zhi to go north to fight a decisive battle!"

Unfortunately, because Zhang Zhi had predicted Shi Bao's tactical methods in advance, he evacuated the surrounding people first. After the Jin cavalry who took turns to attack south, he did not achieve any decent results. He simply burned some empty village houses and killed some Yizhou people who were reluctant to seek refuge with luck. He could not touch the fundamental interests of the Han army. The news was reported to Shi Bao, and Shi Bao had no choice but to order the cavalry to venture deep into the hinterland of the Han army controlled by the Han army to attack the people behind the Han army.

At the same time, there was something that made Shi Bao furious and unable to defend himself. After the Jin army's minor officials sent Lu Kang's letter to the Han army camp, they reported that he was first mistakenly considered by the Han army as an envoy sent by Wang Chen, the Jin army supervisor. He was warmly entertained by the Han army, and was filled with all kinds of junk foods that cost gold in Luoyang. However, after the Han army asked him that he was the envoy sent by Shi Bao, the Han army immediately withdrew the peerless delicacies and replaced the rough vegetables, rice and bean soup for him to eat.

After hearing this report, Wang Chen remained silent, Sun Chu and others were still sneering, but Shi Bao roared, "Shameless thief! He actually used the well-known Chen Ping's plan of distraction, pretending to deliberately cleanse me up, making me even more difficult to explain! OK, I know that you want Your Majesty to be suspicious, and I issued an edict to force me to take the initiative to go south to fight. I don't meet your wish. It depends on which of us can't withstand the pressure from the rear first!"
