    When he stepped into the tent, Zhang Song was surprised again.

    Yan Liang said he had prepared a small amount of wine, but in fact he had already prepared a grand banquet with all the actors and dancers.

    Yan Liang invited Zhang Song to sit at the top of the left chair, while the other civil and military officials sat at the bottom with him.

    As soon as the banquet started, Yan Liang did not talk about business. He only expressed his appreciation for Zhang Song's talent and did not talk about Zhang Song's mission at all.

    Although Zhang Song is in a distinguished position, he is not very popular in Yizhou because he relies on his talent and has a somewhat arrogant personality.

    Now on this mission, Zhang Song was surprised that Yan Liang, who was so powerful in the world, could be so appreciated and treated with such courtesy. Zhang Song was naturally quite touched.

    As for Xu You and other civil and military officials, they all didn't understand why their lord suddenly paid so much attention to this short and ugly envoy from Yizhou.

    Although they were not clear about it, when everyone saw that Yan Liang treated Zhang Song favorably, they did not dare to make a mistake and could only praise Zhang Song.

    For several days in a row, Yan Liang entertained Zhang Song warmly and grandly, with a small banquet on three days and a large banquet on five days.

    In addition to eating and drinking, Yan Liang also took Xu You to visit his elite division.

    Yan Liang showed his army to Xu You without reservation, including the chariots, ships, fleets, Tiger Guards, cavalry and infantry.

    Yan Liang's intention is simple. On the one hand, he is kind to Zhang Song, and on the other hand, he must show him his powerful force. Only by combining kindness and power can Zhang Song dare to bet on himself.

    On this day, Yan Liang took Zhang Song to visit his infantry training.

    At the General Station, Zhang Song looked far away at the warriors with high morale and strict military discipline, with an expression of envy and admiration written on his face.

    "General Yan's soldiers are indeed elite troops. No wonder they can win every battle and shock the world." Zhang Song couldn't help but admire.

    "Mr. Yongnian, I'm sorry. I'm afraid that my army is inferior to Liu Yizhou's Sichuan troops."

    Yan Liang seems to be being modest, but in fact he is trying.

    Zhang Song shook his head and sighed: "Although the Shu soldiers are brave, it's a pity that they didn't win their master."

    We haven¡¯t found the owner

    Hearing these four words, Yan Liang's head moved slightly. He knew that his kindness and power in the past few days were beginning to bear fruit.

    Xu You, who was following behind, couldn't help but be secretly surprised. He could also hear that Zhang Song's sighing words clearly contained dissatisfaction with Liu Zhang.

    "The mountains and rivers in the middle of Sichuan are rich and the people are happy. If Liu Yizhou had not governed well, how could he have enjoyed peace alone? I can't understand what Mr. Cai just said." Yan Liang pretended to be puzzled.

    Zhang Song stroked his beard and sighed: "The general does not know. Although our lord Liu Jiyu claims to be benevolent and righteous, he is actually weak in temperament. He cannot control the dispute between the scholars of Dongzhou and Yizhou internally, and cannot resist the invasion of Zhang Lu externally. In the middle of Shu,  People with insight have long complained about it, fearing that the fertile land in Sichuan and its millions of people will sooner or later be acquired by others. "

    As soon as these words came out, they were far beyond what a messenger should say, and Zhang Song's resentment towards Liu Zhang was very obvious.

    And when he said these inner words to Yan Liang, his intention was obvious.

    Xu You couldn't help but be shocked after his death. He never expected that Zhang Song, a stranger from Yizhou, would be so dissatisfied with Liu Zhang.

    Yan Liang also pretended to be shocked and looked like he couldn't believe it.

    However, Zhang Song's expression was calm, and he suddenly raised his hand to Yan Liangyi and said: "General Shenwu Xionglue is a hero of the world, and he has the ambition to clear up Liuhe. Yizhou is a country of Tianfu, with millions of people, and it is adjacent to Jingzhou. This is a gift from God to General  Don¡¯t the generals have the ambition to swallow up their wealth?¡±

    Zhang Song pierced the window paper, which was already openly "selling out" Liu Zhang.

    Yan Liang pretended to be shocked for a moment, but then smiled: "Mr. Yongnian, if I remember correctly, you are Liu Jiyu's envoy from Yizhou."

    Zhang Song snorted coldly, "Liu Zhang is as weak as incompetent. Unless he is the master of the Ming Dynasty, Song will not hide it from the general. In fact, Song came here as an envoy this time. He clearly wanted to make a good general for Liu Zhang, but secretly he benefited from the knowledgeable people in the state.  As entrusted, I came to seek the Ming Lord, and the general was the Ming Lord whom Song recognized."

    Zhang Song finally revealed his true purpose.

    Yan Liang smiled.

    Everything was exactly as he expected. Zhang Song's trip was really to dedicate himself to Yizhou.

    Xu You was also shocked. It was only then that he understood why Yan Liang had to greet and entertain Zhang Song, the envoy from Yizhou, with a grand ceremony.

     "It turns out that my lord had already expected that Zhang Song was dissatisfied with Liu Zhang and wanted to betray Yizhou. My lord's insight must be too great"

    Xu You was amazed in his heart, and when he looked at Yan Liang again, his face was full of admiration.

    "Since Yongnian is so honest, I might as well tell the truth. In fact, I have long wanted to capture Yizhou. However, the mountains and rivers along the way from Jingzhou to Yizhou are dangerous and the mountains are thousands of miles away. It would be extremely difficult to capture it.  ¡±

    There was a sly smile on Zhang Song's face.

    He waved his hand, called one of his followers forward, and took out a scroll from his baggage.

    "This is a topographic map of Yizhou's mountains and rivers. It contains detailed information about the passes and garrisons throughout Yizhou. Songte presented this map to the general."

    Zhang Song said as he unfolded the scroll and placed his hands on Yan Liang.

    Yan Liang took the map and took a look. Sure enough, it was the topographic map of Yizhou. The various roads, the city defense data of the passes, the number of defenders, and the information of the defenders were all described in detail.

    Such a detailed map, it seems that it took many years to draw it carefully. It seems that Zhang Song has been brewing for a long time.

    "The general has this plan, and with Song and a group of knowledgeable people as internal response, there will be a pincer attack from both inside and outside, so there is no need to worry about not being able to capture Yizhou."

    After Zhang Song presented the picture, he made it clear that he was willing to be an internal correspondent.

    Seeing that Zhang Song had expressed his position without reservation, Yan Liang had nothing else to pretend. He couldn't help laughing loudly in excitement and joy.

    "With the help of a wise man like Yongnian, I will not worry about conquering Yizhou. Yongnian, if I can really capture Yizhou, you will be the first to do it."

    Zhang Song traveled thousands of miles to come to Yizhou, and what he asked for was inseparable from the word "profit". Yan Liang also made it clear that he regarded him as the first contributor to the victory of Shu, and the first contributor would naturally reap the greatest benefits.

    Zhang Song was overjoyed when he heard this, and said with emotion: "Thanks to the general's respect, as long as the general sends troops to Shu, how dare Song not to fight to the death."

    At this time, Zhang Song had already been impressed by Yan Liang's kindness and power. He felt that he had met the master of the Ming Dynasty, and he was very generous to Yan Liang.

    Yan Liang was very pleased and comforted Zhang Song greatly.

    The two of them joked for a while and decided on a plan to conquer Shu.

    At this time, Xu You, who had been silent, said: "My lord can get Yongnian's help, so it will be twice the result with half the effort to conquer Shu. However, the battle to destroy Wu is already imminent. I am afraid that the destruction of Shu will have to be postponed."  ¡±

    Yan Liang was also too excited and forgot about the current situation for a moment. He only remembered it after Xu You reminded him.

    Before he could speak, Zhang Song already smiled and said: "Jingzhou and Yangzhou are one body. If the lord does not capture Jiangdong, how can he be away from other things? This is something Song knows very well. Don't worry, lord, it will be beneficial for Song to return this time."  The state will secretly contact knowledgeable people and quietly accumulate strength. Once the time is right and the lord can escape to Shu, it will not be too late to respond. "

    Although Zhang Song is from Shu, his knowledge is not as narrow as that of Shu, and he also has a deep understanding of Yan Liang's strategy.

    At this time, Yan Liang was naturally even more pleased, and he smiled boldly and said: "Very good, with Yongnian's words, I feel relieved. When he raised troops to seize Shu, he relied entirely on Yongnian to act as an internal support.  "

    "Don't worry, my lord, Song Dare not try his best."

    On the general platform, Yan Liang and Zhang Song discussed the plan to take Shu.

    The plot was decided. Zhang Song was afraid that staying too long would make Liu Zhang suspicious, so he asked to leave.

    Yan Liang did not stay, so he wrote a letter and asked Zhang Song to bring a large number of gifts in return to Liu Zhang to show his intention to reconcile with Liu Zhang and to confuse Liu Zhang.

    That evening, Yan Liang went to the trestle to see Zhang Song off.

    Watching Zhang Song's ship go away, Xu You, who was accompanying him, couldn't help but sigh: "Sure enough, a person cannot be judged by his appearance. This person has never been good at appearance, but he dares to plan such an earth-shattering thing. Liu Zhang has some deceitful talents and cannot use them. What a pity.  ¡±

    "There are crouching tigers and hidden dragons in Sichuan. Zhang Song is not the only one who is wise and resourceful. There is another person who is probably ten times more talented than Zhang Song." Yan Liang sighed lightly, and a name passed through his mind.

    Xu You couldn't help but wonder, thinking that Zhang Song was already very resourceful. Hearing what his lord said, could there be a more powerful person in Shu?

    However, Xu You counted on his fingers. Apart from Zhang Song, he really couldn't count any other famous counselors in Shu.

    "Let's go, destroying Shu is not a thing, let's first think about how to deal with that Mizhouro."

    Yan Liang didn¡¯t name the person he was referring to, he turned around and walked away with a big smile.

    Sent awayHowever, what Yan Liang has to face is a difficult Zhou Yu.

    In the past, Zhou Yu, relying on the advantages of the Soochow Navy and his confidence in his commanding ability, always took the initiative to launch attacks, forcing Yan Liang to adopt defensive counterattack tactics.

    But this time, Zhou Yu, who returned to the martial arts world, changed his past arrogance and led 30,000 Wu troops to huddle in Wankou City.

    Soon after the spring plowing was over, Jingzhou¡¯s labor force was surplus, and the soldiers rested for more than a month. Yan Liang resumed his offensive against the Wu army.

    Yan Liangsui commanded 30,000 naval troops, including vehicles, ships and fleets. He went down the river and set up the Second Flood and Drought Battalion on the south bank fifteen miles west of the enemy camp at Wankou.

    Yan Liang, who was approaching Wankou, attacked several times with light troops, trying to provoke Zhou Yu to attack, but Mei Zhoulang could not get out.

    After the water battle failed to lure the enemy, Yan Liang found another way and sent Huang Zhong to lead thousands of infantry troops in an attempt to attack Kuaiji County from Poyang County eastward and penetrate directly into the rear of Soochow.

    But Zhou Yu was obviously prepared for this, and with Wu general He Qi occupying Dingyang County in the west of Kuaiji, he successfully resisted Huang Zhong's attack.

    In the spring of that year, the war between Yan Liang and Sun Quan once again fell into a stalemate.  (To be continued. Please search Piaotian Literature, the novels will be better and updated faster!)
