The most powerful general in the Three Kingdoms

Wen Sheng came to Nanzheng, the county seat of Hanzhong.

When Wen Sheng came this time, there was a lot of movement.

Regarding Wen Sheng's visit, Zhang Lu still sent counselor Yan Pu to greet him outside the city.

Yan Pu saw Zhou Jun's soldiers for the first time.

It is said that Zhou Jun's cavalry is invincible in the world. Now that we see them up close, they are indeed extraordinary.

The tall horse is well-dressed and armored. The cavalry on the horse are equipped with swords, spears, round shields, strong bows and crossbows. They have hand halberds and hand axes on their waists, and short swords on their legs.

Everyone has arrow pots on their bodies and on their horses.

There are also special horsebacks responsible for carrying square shields, arrows, etc.

There is no doubt that the combat capabilities of this cavalry are extraordinary.

Wen Sheng got off the carriage.

Yan Pu took the initiative to greet him and said,"Sir, you have come a long way. I have prepared wine and food in the post house to welcome you."

Wen Sheng bowed and said,"Mr. Lao, please lead the way."

Yan Pu then got on his horse. , leading the way.

Compared with Zhou Wu soldiers, Zhang Lu's army was indeed a bit unsightly.

The first is his short stature, and the second is his crude weapons and equipment.

When Sima Yi led his army to surprise Hanzhong, the soldiers and horses he led were only prisoners of the Death Fighting Camp.

Strictly speaking, Zhang Lu's army had never really fought against Zhou Cheng's elite.

However, after seeing Zhou Wu's soldiers, the soldiers and civilians in Nanzheng could feel their aura from a distance.

It was murderous and aggressive.

Wen Sheng first moved into the post house.

Although the post house is a bit old, it is very clean.

The environment is also clean.

Wen Sheng and Yan Pu tasted wine and had a drink. After eating and drinking, they went directly to rest.

Yan Pu also returned to the prefect's mansion and met with Zhang Lu.

What happened to Wen Sheng's visit to Nanzheng this time?

Zhang Lu has always been wary of Zhou Cheng.

Sima Yi led thousands of troops and horses and made a mess.

Now Taishi Ci still leads 50,000 troops and horses and is stationed in Chencang. If these 50,000 troops and horses attack Hanzhong, can they withstand it?

Although Zhang Lu now has strong support, Han Sui is not a person who is inferior to others.

Therefore, Zhang Lu was still on guard against Han Sui.

Yan Liang and Wen Chou temporarily stayed in Hanzhong, but Zhang Lu did not dare to reuse them.

Zhang Lu is still afraid that he cannot control the two of them. What if Yan Liang and Wen Chou turn against each other?

Therefore, Zhang Lu's life was actually not easy. It is no exaggeration to say that it was caused by internal and external troubles.

……

The next day, Zhang Lu held a banquet in the prefect's mansion for Wen Sheng.

At the banquet, in addition to Zhang Lu and Yan Pu, Yang Song, Yang Ren and others also attended the banquet to accompany them.

After three rounds of wine, five flavors of food.

Zhang Lu put down his wine glass.

When everyone present saw Zhang Lu put down his wine glass, they also put down their wine glasses.

At this time, Zhang Lu looked at Wen Sheng and said,"I wonder what happened to Grand Sima, why did he send you sir to look for me?"

Wen Sheng said with a smile:"Prefect, don't worry, my lord sent me here on behalf of the court." Declare."

As he spoke, Wen Sheng took out the yellow silk that had been prepared and presented it to Zhang Lu.

After Zhang Lu read what was written on the yellow silk, he stood up in surprise.

Zhou Cheng actually made him the shepherd of Yizhou?

Although it was in Liu Xie's name, Zhang Lu knew that this was entirely Zhou Cheng's arrangement.

Wen Sheng said:"Yizhou is easy to defend but difficult to attack. If my lord wants to bring peace to the world, he needs the help of the prefect. If the prefect is willing to surrender, he can become the shepherd of Yizhou. My lord promises not to interfere in the government and military affairs of Yizhou."

Hearing this, Zhang Lu was silent for the time being.

……

After the banquet, Zhang Lu left Yan Pu alone.

Zhang Lu trusted Yan Pu.

He believed that Yan Pu would make the most correct decision for himself.

Zhang Lu asked Yan Pu:"The thieves of Zhou want to make me surrender, what should I do?"

Yan Pu replied:"My lord, Zhou Cheng has the power to dominate the world. He has stationed 50,000 troops in Chencang, and he can make the lord safe in the south day and night, let alone dozens of them. Ten thousand soldiers, yesterday I observed that the soldiers of the Zhou army are truly the best in the world, and no one can defeat us."

Hearing what Yan Pu said, Zhang Lu's face sank as deep as water.

Yan Pu then said:"My lord, although the Zhou thieves have swept across all directions, the people are not attached to them. If you want to unify the world, you need the support of powerful people from all over the country. My lord has won the hearts of the people, and the Zhou thieves must be used."

In history, Cao Cao also recruited Zhang Lu. host.

Because Zhang Lu's Five Pecks of Rice religion has a large number of believers and is deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.

If Zhang Lu is attacked by force, it will arouse a strong backlash.

Zhang Lu thought about it for a while and said:"If you join the Zhou thieves, I'm afraid Han Wenyue will be resentful and send his army to attack me."

Yan Pu said:"My lord, I am willing to go to Han Wenyue's place and make it clear that I am powerful so that he can feel at ease."_
