Chapter 302 Am I smart enough?

Zhang Fei quickly walked into the tent and lifted the curtain, a gust of cool breeze blew in.

"Yide is back? Come and have a glass of wine to quench your thirst."

Pang Tong picked up the wine jar and poured it into the empty bowl. Unexpectedly, Zhang Fei directly held the wine jar and put it into his mouth. Sweat mixed with the wine dripped down his throat.

Fazheng smiled and said: "The third general is very thirsty, but he has a good capacity for drinking."

Liu Bei shook his head when he saw this: "Thanks to Zhang Zhongjing's anti-hangover pills, otherwise drinking too much cattle would have caused trouble."

Zhang Fei drank a lot, then put the wine jar on the table and burped.

"It's so nice..." Zhang Fei said, patting his belly.

"Why did you come back so late? You have been dealing with Zhang Ren for a long time? How did things go afterwards?" Liu Bei asked curiously.

Zhang Fei glared at him, then picked up the wine jar and continued drinking.

Fazheng, who was originally smiling, suddenly changed his expression slightly. He exchanged looks with Pang Tong and Liu Bei, wondering if the three generals had failed?

At this time, Zhuge Liang came over. He held a fan and cupped his hands to tell Liu Bei the good news: "Yide killed Zhang Ren at Jinyan Bridge and captured more than 500 cavalry. All the troops in Luocheng have been wiped out."

Pang Tong quickly congratulated: "It turns out that Yide has won a great victory. Xiaozhi and I thought we had waited all night in vain."

Liu Bei frowned and asked: "The third brother is reckless. It is a pity to kill Zhang Ren, a famous general in Shu. Why not follow the example of surrendering General Yan?"

Zhang Fei clamped the wine jar to his waist and said with a displeased look: "What does it mean to be reckless? Zhang Ren is so capricious, how can he compare with Old General Yan?"

Liu Bei was confused when he heard this. Zhang Ren's reputation was good among Wu Yi and Li Yan. Why would his third brother be so disparaging? He was about to ask clearly when Zhuge Liang stretched out his feather fan to stop him.

"Liang has understood the matter clearly. Zhang Ren was captured alive by Yide on horseback, but then he suddenly attacked on the pretext of surrender. If Yide's bodyguards had not fought to protect him, he might have been plotted by the other party. It is only natural for Yide to kill him in anger.

." Zhuge Liang explained.

"What happened to the personal guard?" Liu Bei asked.

Zhuge Liang nodded slightly, "I was just sent to the medical camp. It doesn't look like anything serious."

"That's very good." Liu Bei nodded affirmatively.

Zhuge Liang saw that Zhang Fei was still unhappy, so he immediately walked to his side and used a feather fan to blow the air, "Yide doesn't have to worry about it. Everyone has his own ambitions, how can he force it."

Zhang Fei complained: "If you don't want to surrender, don't surrender. I didn't force him to surrender. We are all generals in charge of the army. There is no need to play tricks with me. He is really a shameless villain..."

The confidence that Zhang Fei built in recruiting Yan Yan to surrender was now so ruthlessly destroyed by Zhang Ren. The frustration of his self-confidence was the real reason for his anger.

Zhuge Liang probably guessed what Zhang Fei was thinking, and then he smiled and comforted him: "Aside from being foolish and loyal, Zhang Ren's refusal may be related to the fact that his family members are all in Chengdu. Anyway, they were all killed by you in the end..."

Zhang Fei thought that this was the truth. Yan Yan was not only impressed by his personal charm, but also had no worries about his family being in Bajun.

"I forgot to take hangover pills just now, I'm going to go back to bed first..." Zhang Fei relieved himself and carried the wine jar, swinging towards the tent door.

Zhuge Liang immediately sat next to Liu Bei and said, "Although Zhang Ren is dead, you can still use him to take Luocheng..."

"Kong Ming, you want to fish in troubled waters?" Pang Tong asked doubtfully.

"The cavalry captured by Yide will come in handy, but two smart generals must be chosen to lead them..." Zhuge Liang explained slowly.

Zhang Fei was walking outside the tent at this time. When he heard the conversation between the two military advisors, his ears twitched upwards, and then he turned back and walked in again.

"The military advisor wants to use a trick to capture Luocheng. What do you think of me? Am I smart enough?" Zhang Fei recommended himself.

Liu Bei frowned and scolded: "Third brother, you are drunk, go back and rest quickly..."

"Military advisor?" Zhang Fei shook his head.

Neither Zhuge Liang nor Pang Tong answered. Zhuge Liang gently shook the feather fan in his hand, as if he had said nothing just now.

Zhang Fei strode over, grabbed Zhuge Liang's feather fan, and saw Liu Bei's eyes glaring like bells. Zhang Fei smiled and fanned Zhuge Liang, "Hey, military counselor, what are you talking about? I am not smart enough, Zhang Fei."

?”

Zhuge Liang coughed twice. Seeing Zhang Fei's reluctance, he quickly shook his head and explained: "Although Yide is clever, you have been attacking the city recently, and the defenders basically know you. The defeated soldiers pretending to be Zhang Ren cannot enter Luocheng."

of..."

"Why don't we just go through the north gate? These guys are all my prisoners, how can I give outsiders the opportunity to make meritorious deeds?" Zhang Fei argued.

"Although the four gates of Luocheng are dead, the soldiers who defend the city are all active. Yide, your appearance is still too conspicuous. It is best to find officers and soldiers who have not participated in the siege. You don't need to be a lieutenant. General Pi is the captain.

It's possible, Yide, do you still have such a general under your command?" Zhuge Liang continued to explain.

Zhang Fei's troops were the main force attacking the north gate, and all the generals and commanders had appeared under the city wall. Zhuge Liang knew this, so he did not intend to send his men to fish in troubled waters.

"Of course, you can arrange tasks for me." Zhang Fei said firmly.

Zhuge Liang was so confident that he revealed his plan to fish in troubled waters, and asked Zhang Fei to send people to lead the surrendered cavalry to call the gate. After entering the city, he immediately controlled the gate, and then the ambush siege troops swarmed up to seize Luocheng.

After Zhang Fei understood, he left the tent and walked straight to the barracks where his army was stationed. Finally, he stopped in front of the tents of Zhang Da and Fan Jiang. The performance of these two people could not escape his eyes.

After Lan Tian's secret "recommendation", Zhang Fei made special use of Zhang Da and Fan Jiang, often ordering them to take on the role of vanguard. At first, the two of them felt excited, after all, they had received the attention of Zhang Fei, the enemy of thousands of people.

If you want to wear the crown, you must bear its weight. Zhang Da and Fan Jiang discovered the huge risks behind them. While enjoying the glory in front of others, they must work hard on the battlefield. This made the two of them retreat and start from Jiameng Pass.

Just find reasons not to lead the charge.

During the attack on Luocheng, Zhang Da and Fan Jiang happened to fall ill at the same time. The reason was that they were prone to fainting while fighting under the scorching sun. They could not lift their spirits for several days, and they did not get better even after the medical camp took medicine.

If it weren't for Zhang Da, Fan Jiang would have received the long-awaited whip from Mr. Zhang long ago with Lan Tian's "recommendation".

Zhang Fei had a "cordial" conversation with the two school officers at night. In the early morning of the next day, Zhang Da and Fan Jiang led their troops to appear at the south gate of Luocheng. Before dawn, Zhang Fei led the main force to the scheduled ambush point.

Zhang Da and Fan Jiang were very convinced of Zhuge Liang's plan. After all, compared to attacking the city with arrows overhead, the task of fishing in troubled waters was much easier.

"Open the city gate quickly, we are the cavalry under General Zhang." Zhang Da ordered the troops to surrender and call the gate.

At this time, Luocheng had just changed its defenses day and night. The soldiers guarding the city saw the cavalry under the city wearing the same clothes and armor as themselves, so they went to report to the general at the south gate.

"Where is General Zhang?" the south gate guard asked loudly.

"General Zhang failed to rob the camp to burn food, but he accidentally caught their military advisor Zhuge Liang and asked us to bring him back to the eldest son." Jiang Bing pointed at Fan Jiang and said.

Fan Jiang was currently wearing a white robe with his hands tied behind his back. Sitting on the horse, he stood out from the crowd.
