    Fazheng pretended to be miserable. Leng Bao suddenly sneered after hearing this.  Fazheng's face twitched and he pretended to be confused again.

    "General Leng knows that I am suffering and humiliating, so why is he sneering in secret?"

    Leng Bao laughed calmly when he saw that Fazheng was still acting.

    "Haha! I already know what you mean. Why do you need to keep pretending? If my guess is correct, will you sacrifice Yizhou?"

    When Fazheng heard the words, he turned pale with fright and said in a panic.

    "General Leng, please do not wrongly accuse good people. Although I have been humiliated, I still know my loyalty. How could I do such a treasonous and unethical thing!!"

    "This is so. Why did you disguise yourself as a soldier and leave secretly last night and come back this morning? Don't worry, sir. Liu Xuande uses others only and despises me and other old ministers of Xichuan. Such narrow-minded people are definitely not wise masters. I  I have been willing to join the army for a long time, so why should I doubt it?"

    Leng Bao finally showed his fox tail, and his evil intentions were revealed.  When Fazheng heard this, a cold murderous aura flashed through his eyes, and then he hurriedly lowered his voice and signaled to Leng Bao.

    "Walls have ears. If General Leng utters such treacherous and unethical words, if anyone hears them, the whole family will be destroyed!"

    Leng Bao knew that Fa Zheng was cautious, so he walked up to him and whispered in Fa Zheng's ear.

    "My husband and I have expressed our feelings and treated each other sincerely, so why should you be on guard everywhere? Now the Jiameng Pass is in danger, but we can't advance or retreat. We just sit there and wait for death. If we stay for a long time, we will perish. We, the literary warriors, can read and learn, and keep strong and healthy.  Isn¡¯t it just to be able to climb the dragon and the phoenix, make achievements, gain wealth, and have children?

    Now Liu Xuande has difficulty guarding Xichuan, and he is making every possible effort to make things difficult for us and other old officials of Xichuan.  Gongshen is far-sighted. He must have been safe when he left seclusion last night. Why not take his brother with him?  "

    Fazheng's expression changed continuously, and he made eye contact with Lengbao for a while, pretending to be hesitant.

    "This matter should not be taken too hastily. The military prince is a cautious person. Even if I try my best to protect it, I am afraid that the military prince will not believe it!"

    Leng Bao smiled lightly, having already thought about it in his heart, he said immediately.

    ¡°I don¡¯t need to bother you, I just need to write you a letter, and I will deliver it to you personally tonight, to the military camp to show your loyalty!¡±

    Fazheng looked slightly shocked, and after pondering for a while, he replied.

    "That's fine. But General Leng must be careful and don't let others discover it, otherwise you and I will both die!"

    Leng Bao handed over his hand and thanked him, and Fazheng immediately took out a letter with ink.  Leng Bao carefully collected it and left.

    "Hmph! Leng Bao, Leng Bao, you are so smart that you have been misled by your cleverness this time. You have made it your own fault!"

    Fazheng looked at Leng Bao's slowly leaving back and sighed in his heart.

    However, it was said that Wen Han had just left Wenjun's stronghold, and Wenhan gathered all the civil and military personnel under his command to discuss matters under the tent.  Today was the time when Wen Han had planned to send out the army earlier, but all the civil and military officials thought that Wen Han was preparing for the war.  However, when all the civil and military personnel entered the tent, they saw that Wen Han had not yet put on his armor, and they all looked suspicious.

    Wen Han was sitting in the high hall, and he was about to explain everything about Fa Zheng's surrender last night.  After speaking, Wen Han turned his attention to Zhang Song. Zhang Song understood it, but because Liu Ba had learned from his mistakes, he did not dare to take it lightly and went to bow to him.

    "Fa Xiaozhi and a certain person were once close friends. This person is rich in knowledge and talents, and he is not a stickler for rules. He is quite ambitious. After hearing what the Lord said, it is indeed possible for Fa Xiaozhi to come here sincerely. This person is different from Liu Ba.  He is careful and careful in his actions. If he really devotes himself to serving our army, great things can be done!"

    After hearing this, Wenhan nodded slightly, then turned his eyes to Li You.  Li You analyzed it carefully for a while and then bowed.

    "The situation is favorable to our army at this time, but if Shuo Xiaozhi wanted to save his life and surrendered, I think his character is not greedy and afraid of death. However, as he said, he was severely beaten by Liu Xuande and surrendered, which is somewhat credible.  . But what makes you suspicious is that Liu Xuande is good at using people. How could he beat up Xichuan's ministers at such a critical time? Isn't this just messing up the situation? "

    When Wenhan heard this, he nodded in agreement.

    "I also have doubts about Zhongwen, but after listening to Fa Xiaozhi's explanation last night, Liu Bei wanted to stabilize the internal situation, so he divided the power of Xichuan's old ministers and established his prestige."

    Li You's face darkened, his bright eyes shone brightly, and he replied immediately.

    "Liu Xuande has always acted appropriately and rarely acted in such a hasty manner unless he realized that the current situation in his army was dangerous and the people's hearts were shaken. That's why he would be like this."

    Just when Li You was giving his analysis, Cheng Gongying suddenly showed up angrily and spoke in a concentrated voice.

    "Now our army has the upper hand. As long as the lord attacks with all his troops, Jiameng Pass will be conquered within one month. Liu Xuande is a traitor in the world, and Fa Xiaozhi is also a wise and cunning person. The lord must not be gullible and delay the opportunity to fight.  In my opinion, we should attack it quickly."

      Wen Han frowned slightly when he heard the words and hesitated.  As Cheng Gongying said, Liu Bei and Fazheng were not ordinary people. Wenhan did not dare to believe Fazheng's defection and surrender.  However, Wen Han did not want to give up the good opportunity to save his troops and conquer Jiameng Pass.

    Just when Wen Han was hesitating, Li You seemed to be aware of what Wen Han was thinking and bowed.

    "If it is true as Fa Xiaozhi said, the soldiers in Xichuan are now in panic and everyone is in danger. There must be people here who still hope to save themselves and secretly sneak into our stronghold to surrender to the lord. Why not just wait quietly for a few days, if it is true  If someone comes to surrender, it can be seen that what Fa Xiaozhi said is true. If not, there may be fraud, and the Lord should be careful. "

    As soon as Li You said this, it was in line with Wenhan's thoughts, and Wenhan immediately agreed.  When Cheng Gongying saw this, his face became anxious and he came to remonstrate again.

    "My lord, wait a minute! Liu Xuande is very good at winning over people's hearts, how could he violate this taboo of a military strategist? To deal with such a traitor, my lord should take the initiative gradually and take the initiative, which is the best strategy. If you look forward and backward, delaying the opportunity, you will easily miss something. We hope  Lord, think twice!¡±

    Cheng Gongying tried hard to persuade him, but Wenhan seemed to have made up his mind and did not listen.  Cheng Gongying was very anxious, but he couldn't persuade Wenhan. After the party was over, he had no choice but to come to Li You for discussion.

    When Cheng Gongying was young, he rushed to Li You's tent. Li You seemed to have expected Cheng Gongying's arrival and had been waiting in front of the tent to introduce him into the tent.  Cheng Gongying still had a look of panic on his face, and said hurriedly.

    "Mr. Li has a venomous look in his eyes. Don't you know that Liu Xuande, Fa Xiaozhi and others cannot be trusted easily? Why didn't you try to persuade the lord more at the table just now?"

    Li You listened to the words and pondered for a while before speaking in a concentrated voice.

    "Mr. Cheng, please be patient and don't be impatient. Not only you and I know this truth, but the lord also has an idea. However, the lord is determined to fight for the sake of the overall situation. If our army can attack Jiameng Pass by force, we can break it.  , with the strong strength of Jiameng Pass, our army will also suffer heavy losses in troops and horses. In recent years, our army has repeatedly launched large-scale troops in Shu, and the depletion of troops has been extremely serious. Almost all the available troops in Liang and Yong Prefectures have been requisitioned in the past few years. If it happens again.  The troops in Liang and Yong prefectures are empty. What should we do if something happens? And when our army enters Xichuan, we don¡¯t have enough troops to stabilize the situation. How can we suppress the people of Xichuan and the people nearby?  Southern barbarians? My lord thinks of this key, so he wants to protect his troops!"

    When Cheng Gongying heard this, his expression changed continuously. After he lowered his head and thought for a while, he sighed.

    "It seems that I am short-sighted and do not understand the overall situation. However, I should be cautious when it comes to surrendering to the law and filial piety."

    Li You listened and nodded heavily, his bright eyes shining brightly.

    That night, Fazheng secretly sent someone to tell Liu Bei about Leng Bao's evil intentions.  Liu Bei heard the report and deliberately relaxed the defense at the pass.  Leng Bao led a group of close soldiers and sneaked out of the pass easily, hoping that Wang Wen's military camp would surrender.

    At the third watch of the night, Leng Bao was stopped by the civilian scouts patrolling at the foot of the mountain. Leng Bao urgently reported his purpose and identity.  The Wenjun scouts heard this and rushed back to report to Wenhan.

    Wen Han was sitting in his tent at night when he heard that another person from Xichuan came to the village to ask for a visit.  Wen Han narrowed his eyes and secretly said in his heart, it came really fast.  Wen Han immediately ordered his soldiers to call Li You, Cheng Gongying, Zhang Song and others, and then sent a scout to introduce Leng Bao into the stronghold.

    When they were young, Li You, Cheng Gongying, and Zhang Song rushed into the tent after being ordered. Soon after, Leng Bao also stepped into the tent and bowed respectfully. Leng Bao then informed Wen Hanbing of his intention, and also presented a letter of Fa Zheng.  Book.

    With no expression on his face, Wenhan took Fazheng's letter and looked at it carefully.  Wenhan turned over several cases and read the book more than ten times, and then asked Leng Bao.

    "You are the general of Xichuan, why did you come to surrender to me with Fa Xiaozhi?"

    Hearing this, Leng Bao had two cold looks in his eyes and said grimly through gritted teeth.

    "We, the old ministers of Xichuan, originally thought that Liu Xuande was the wise master of the world, but unexpectedly he turned out to be a traitor who was hypocritical and hypocritical. As soon as he won the power in Xichuan, he immediately eliminated dissidents and reused his minions and outsiders like Ma Mengqi.  On the contrary, we, the old ministers of Xichuan, were subjected to all kinds of difficulties and were punished severely for the slightest offense. Not only Fa Xiaozhi was severely beaten by him that day, but even Zhang Guyi was almost punished severely for coming to persuade him. Liu Xuande was as cunning as a wolf.  Hypocrisy is like a fox, so I abandoned him and surrendered to my subordinates. I hope the military commander will not accept him because he is not talented!"

    Leng Bao¡¯s words were not false at all, and the hatred on his face was extremely real.  Wen Han secretly watched in his heart, and cast silent glances at Li You, Cheng Gongying, and Zhang Song. When Leng Bao spoke just now, the three of them watched carefully, but none of them noticed anything. At the moment, the three of them all looked at Wen Han.  Indicates that what the person says is credible.

    Wen Han then raised the corners of his mouth and laughed brightly.

    "Haha. Now that General Leng and Xiaozhi have come to join me, God has helped me win Xichuan. How can I not accept it? Why bother General Leng?"Return to Jiameng Pass and make an agreement with Fa Xiaozhi to coordinate secretly. I will respond with troops sooner or later!  !  !  "

    Leng Bao was overjoyed when he heard this, and immediately bowed and thanked him.  Wen Han gave him gold and silk, and Leng Bao accepted it happily. He said goodbye and left the camp, hoping to return to Jiameng Pass.

    When Leng Baogang came out of the stronghold, Wen Han was very happy and smiled at Li You, Cheng Gongying and Zhang Song.

    "Hahaha! It seems that Faxiao's surrender is not a lie. Now we must send troops quickly!!"

    Zhang Song¡¯s expression condensed and he handed over his hand.

    "I know Leng Bao well. This man is narrow-minded and will retaliate. He is indeed trustworthy. In addition, he has always acted cautiously. If he had not secretly confirmed that Fa Xiaozhi had the intention to rebel, he would never dare to conspire with him easily. Based on this calculation, in a certain humble opinion  , My lord should truly believe that what is given is true.¡±

    When Li You and Cheng Gongying heard this, they looked at each other and had no objections, and they all agreed.  Wen Han was overjoyed when he saw that his advisers all recognized the matter. He quickly issued an order to the generals to attack Jiameng Pass at the third watch of the next day.

    It is said that Leng Bao received the gold and silk given by Wen Han and secretly sneaked back into the pass. Fazheng had already heard about it and made a detailed plan to repay him.  Fazheng smiled coldly, and after a while, Leng Bao came to pay him a visit and tell him the story.  Fazheng looked solemn when he heard this, and spoke to Leng Bao in a low voice.

    "Now the situation is such that the arrow is on the string and has to be fired. From today on, General Leng can lead his troops and horses to guard the pass. We only need to wait for the troops and horses to be consistent, act according to the opportunity, and dedicate the pass. Such a big thing can be saved!"

    ¡°It¡¯s true as the saying goes, I know how to act!¡±

    Leng Bao listened to the words, nodded carefully, and immediately kept the words of Fa Zheng in his heart.  The two discussed for a while, then Leng Bao excused himself and left.  Fazheng waited for a while and then secretly rushed to see Liu Bei.

    When Liu Bei heard that Wenhan had fallen into the trap, he immediately relaxed his brows that had been furrowed for many days, smiled brilliantly, and praised the righteousness of the law.  Immediately, Liu Bei summoned Zhang Ren, Huang Quan and others to see him, and explained in detail the plan of falsifying surrender and suffering meat.  After the two of them listened, Huang Quan showed a genuine indifference.  Zhang Ren said bitterly.

    "That's it. It's so hard for my lord to hide this from Zhang!"

    Liu Bei and Fazheng looked at each other and smiled. Liu Bei apologized to Zhang Ren first, but Zhang Ren was afraid to return the favor.  Fazheng said with a smile.

    "I hope the Governor will calm down. This matter is not my lord's fault, it is actually someone who wants to hide it from me. After all, this is a big matter and it is related to the safety of the entire Yizhou, so I have to be cautious!"
