Hearing this news, Jia Xu's heart was agitated. He thought that Li Shu's arrival was just to seek military exploits, at most he would win the Western Regions, and he would just be entrusted outside in the future.

Although Jia Xu also guessed vaguely, what he thought was that Li Huiyi would unify the disputes before launching the expedition to Guishuang.

But it never occurred to him that Li Huiyi would be so anxious that he wanted to rely on Yizhou alone to compete with the Guishuang country whose situation was unknown.

Jia Xu frowned slightly and said, "Young master, Yizhou may be easy to obtain, but the expedition to Guishuang does not have a lot of manpower and material resources. I am afraid that it will not be effective if we work hard."

Li Shu said in a low voice: "Master, to be honest, my father has sent Wei Yan, Huang Xu and other generals to lead the army."

"En?" Jia Xu rolled his eyes, thinking quickly in his heart, if what Li Shu said is true, then Li Huiyi must have made up his mind.

So after Li Shu led the expedition, it became an independent one. Is this Li Huiyi's way to resolve the dispute between heirs?

It is very possible that all the younger generation of General Li Huiyi were sent here, apparently to help Li Shu organize his team.

Then where will I be arranged, whether to stay in Dahan, or to go on an expedition to other countries.

To be honest, Jia Xu was very reluctant to leave his hometown, but if Li Huiyi really appointed him, he would have no choice.

It's still early to think about this, Jia Xu put away his thoughts and said slowly: "If this is the case, the only way is to divide the troops."

Li Shu thought for a while and said: "If you divide the troops, the hope of taking Hanzhong is even smaller. What is your teacher's idea?"

Jia Xu smiled and said, "I really can't hide it from the young master, Xu wants Zhang Lu to go back to Hanzhong quietly and take back the power from Er Yang secretly."

I'm afraid Zhang Lu doesn't have the guts to go alone. Li Shu asked puzzledly, "Men, Zhang Lu is unlikely to accomplish anything great. If he goes alone, he might just die."

Jia Xu smiled and said in a low voice: "Young master, you underestimate the Zhang family too much. With their strength, it is impossible for Eryang to take Hanzhong quickly. In addition, Zhang Lu has been kind and trustworthy in Hanzhong for many years. As long as he shows up, Eryang Yang Bicheng is a street mouse."

Li Shu was born in the north, since he was sensible, he didn't know much about the power of the aristocratic family, thinking that they were all like the north.

Although he had heard it mentioned by others many times, but he had not seen it with his own eyes, Li Shu didn't take it to heart, and always followed the idea that soldiers and horses are king.

At this time, seeing Jia Xu's swearing, there was a little emotion in his heart, and he asked: "In this case, I can give it a try, but Zhang Lu's safety is in danger, no one can protect him."

Right now there are few soldiers and horses, and the main force, Yanyun Eighteen Cavalry, was transferred early in the morning to escort the people to evacuate to Hanzhong and Shu counties. It is indeed a headache to choose who to escort Zhang Lu.

Jia Xu glanced back at Gao Shun, then at Yan Liang, and said, "Let General Yan go, do you think it's possible?"

When he was speaking, he had already taken his seat in the inner hall. Li Shu knelt down on the couch, took a few sips of tea and put it down, took a few glances at Yan Liang, and nodded slowly.

The candidate has been decided, so the parties concerned must naturally notify, and Jia Xu ordered Zhang Lu to be invited.

After experiencing such changes, Zhang Lu became a lot more depressed. Now that he knew that Jia Xu had an invitation, he tidied up a bit and went with the people.

When I came to the lobby, I saw a valiant young girl sitting beside Jia Xu, her expression froze, and she immediately came to her senses.

"Zhang Lu, the prefect of Hanzhong, didn't know that the little girl was the daughter of a great general."

Seeing Zhang Lu cupping his hands, Li Shu approached him familiarly, and said politely: "Uncle Zhang's name, Shu'er often heard from my father, saying that you entered the tiger's den alone and suppressed the rebellion in Hanzhong, and today you can fight together with Uncle Zhang." Enemy, Akira is honored."

After being praised by Li Shu, Zhang Lu's mood improved a lot, as if he regained his previous ambition.

Zhang Lu smiled and said: "The general praised her, but she is a virtuous niece. She has beautiful features and is also a hero among women. She really does not give way to a woman."

The two praised each other, and Li Shu sat down on the right side facing Zhang Lu, with a slight smile on his face and said, "Uncle Zhang, the enemy is besieging the city right now, and the situation is not optimistic. Shu wants to retreat to Yangping Pass, what do you think?"

Retreating to Yangtaiping, isn't that going to give up Hanzhong? Zhang Lu's face turned ugly, and he glanced at Jia Xu, trying to see who meant it.

Zhang Lu's expression caught Li Shu's heart, so he hit the iron while the iron was hot and said, "However, Hanzhong can't give up. After all, it was Uncle Zhang's hard work. In this way, Shu'er asked General Yan Liang to escort Uncle Zhang into Hanzhong, and secretly regain power."

Regaining power is what Zhang Lu dreamed of, but without soldiers and horses, the difficulty is not 01:30. Zhang Lu has already passed the age of youth and vigor, so naturally he will not be as impulsive as he was back then.

Zhang Lu frowned and said, "The Yang family is quite powerful. They have played many chess pieces in various places in Hanzhong over the years. It is not that simple to seize power."

No one knows more about the situation in Hanzhong than Zhang Lu, so his words have a certain degree of practicality.

Chapter 741

Zhang Lu didn't want to go, Li Shu knew that he was afraid of losing his life, so he quickly said, "Uncle Zhang, if this is the case, Shu'er will send two hundred Shenji camps and three hundred trap camps to follow you."

Zhang Lu had heard about the names of the Suppression Camp and the Shenji Camp, but he had never seen it with his own eyes, and he didn't dare to agree to it rashly. After all, there were only 500 people in total.

Zhang Lu was a little embarrassed and said: "The prefect also wants to take back Hanzhong, but this is not a child's play. If it doesn't work, it doesn't matter if the prefect lives or dies."

"But once the prefect dies, Hanzhong will be completely occupied by Yang Song. At that time, even if Yangping Pass is guarded, they can still attack Berkshire, so it is best to retreat to Hanzhong."

After all, Zhang Lu just wanted the army to withdraw to Hanzhong, and he was unwilling to take risks. Since he couldn't be persuaded, Li Shu decided to prove it with practical actions.

Li Shu smiled and said, "Don't worry, Uncle Zhang. The Shenji Camp has the most advanced weapons today. Yang Song is nothing to worry about. Let Uncle Zhang take a look."

After finishing the words, Li Shu stood up, made a gesture of please, and led Zhang Lu to the backyard.

Looking around all the way, Li Shu stopped in front of a rockery, whispered a few words with Yan Liang, and then led Zhang Lu and others to a distance.

About a hundred meters away from the rockery, Li Shu stopped at a gazebo and said with a smile, "Uncle Zhang, we'll have to wait and see."

After so much trouble, Zhang Lu was also curious, and immediately nodded and replied: "Okay, Lu also wants to see the benefits of the Shenji Camp."

Seeing that Zhang Lu couldn't wait, Li Shu waved his hand lightly, and Yan Liang in the distance received a signal, and immediately ordered the soldiers of the Shenji Battalion who were ready to launch.

"Susususu."

"Boom! Boom! Boom!"

"Plop! Plop..."

The iron arrow fell towards the rockery, and the gravel splashed everywhere. Although the big rocks in the rockery were not exploded, the momentum was already shocking, especially Zhang Lu, who saw it for the first time, opened his mouth slightly in shock.

As far as this sharp weapon, who can resist, Zhang Lu asked himself, if he faced it, he might only be defeated.

It seems that the ancestor made the right choice at the beginning, and it might be the best situation to take refuge in Li Huiyi, otherwise the Zhang family would be hit hard.

After being shocked for a while, Zhang Lu put away his thoughts and said: "Such a sharp weapon, just Zhang Song, can be broken with a single hand, and Lu is willing to go."

Seeing that Zhang Lu agreed to go, Li Shu was overjoyed, and hurriedly said: "Uncle Zhang is indeed as handsome as before, and Shu'er admires him very much."

Although it was just a word of praise, Zhang Lu felt very comfortable listening to it, and all the decadence in his heart disappeared, and his whole body exploded with vitality, as if welcoming the second spring of his life.

During this whole process, Jia Xu seemed to be invisible, without saying a word, his purpose was very simple, he wanted to see if Li Shu really had the ability to command an army, and the means to subdue others.

Jia Xu was still very satisfied with this result, and felt much more relieved about whether she would follow Li Shu in the future.

Zhang Lu had persuaded, and Li Shu led a group of people back to the hall, ready to discuss the division of troops.

There is no point in defending Xiabian City. It will only waste time. This is very clear in everyone's heart.

As for where to retreat, it can only depend on the decisions of Jia Xu and Li Shu. After Yang Song's rebellion, Zhang Lu's prestige has been mostly lost. Even Yang Ren and others may have the idea of ​​​​disobeying orders.
