Liu Zhang really felt that he was very difficult.

The Wei army was approaching the border and carried out major martial arts exercises in Wuxian and Hanzhong respectively, with a full posture.

This caused Liu Zhang to be shocked at some point in a night, and he felt that he couldn't sleep well at all. He was often woken up in the middle of the night. His dark circles were so big that he was scary. I didn't know that he thought Liu Zhang was a panda.

But there was no way, he just couldn't rest assured. The powerful 80,000 Wei army was ready to go, staring at it, sharpening his sword to Yizhou.

The troops in his hands were short of strength. After sending three troops to three key defense points, only 5,000 people stayed in Chengdu.

This made him even more worried.

After more than two months of emergency expansion, it was actually to capture strong men. At least more than 3,000 people were captured from around Chengdu to serve as soldiers.

But this was far from enough what he needed, so several other counties were also asked to expand their troops urgently.

Because he was worried that there would be constrains from the surrendered faction, before that, Liu Zhang had replaced all the county magistrates of the surrendered faction with those of the war-based faction to facilitate these county magistrates to expand their troops and increase their troops to fight.

Despite this, the main local officials in the local area were still the locals in Yizhou.

Although the administrative chief was replaced by the war rank, there were still a large number of local officials who were difficult to replace the surrender ranks. Therefore, when doing business, there were many officials delaying, unwilling to do business, and deliberately delaying government orders.

In order to curb this situation, the county magistrates of the pro-war faction also used tricks, including fines, demotions, imprisonment, and even killing, trying to use this to shock the pro-submission faction and let them take action.

This indeed suppressed the phenomenon that some of the main surrendered workers did not work, but the conflict between the main war faction and the main surrendered faction became more acute and the conflict became more intense. In some places, violent resistance to conscription occurred because of the interests of the powerful people in Shu.

Liu Zhang was at a loss for this and could only suppress him, but suppressing him alone was not a problem. What he needed was soldiers, food, fodder and weapons, but suppressing was meaningless.

So at the suggestion of Zhang Su, who was urgently transferred to the position of the county magistrate of Shu County, Liu Zhang decided to open his own treasury and take out his private money to bribe foreign leaders within the vassal states of each county in exchange for their troops to help.

These foreign tribes in China are generally very tough and good at fighting, especially those in Sanba, who are Liu Zhang's key bribery targets.

Back then, Zhang Lu occupied Hanzhong and once lobbyed to buy the leaders of the lord, Park Hu, Yuan Yue and others to contribute to him.

In order to fight against these fierce and warlike monks, Liu Zhang also bribed another monk tribe and fought against them.

The monks have a long history. Legend has it that when King Wu of Zhou attacked Zhou, there were monks fighting as his Hu Ben Army, which made King Wu of Zhou, who had relatively weak military strength defeat King Zhou and established the Zhou Dynasty.

Later, Liu Bang was named King of Han. In order to conquer Guanzhong, he also recruited and sent troops. The monks made immortal contributions to Liu Bang defeating the Three Qins and occupying Guanzhong.

When the Han Dynasty was established, the leader of the monk was also granted the title of marquis. In order to commend the monk's achievements, Liu Bang even issued an edict to exempt the rent and taxes of the seven major surnames of the monk. The rest of the monks only paid 40 yuan a year, which was one-third less than that of ordinary people.

During the Eastern Han Dynasty, people were repeatedly recruited to fight because of their reputation of being brave and good at fighting.

During the Qiang Rebellion in Liangzhou, there were also records of Juren being conscripted and going out to war, but because of the frequent conscripts, Juren also carried out armed resistance.

To this day, the stakes have become an important force that Liu Zhang must win.

So Liu Zhang sent Zhang Su's younger brother Zhang Song to bring a large number of gifts to lobby for the once hostile leaders of the sacred monks, Park Hu, Yuan Yue and others.

Although Zhang Song is short and has a poor appearance, Zhang Song is talented and has a tongue that is not bad.

When he spoke, he spoke fragrantly and bloomed with lotus flowers. He could not say a repetitive sentence for half an hour. He was particularly good at debate and sophistry. So when the pro-war faction and surrender faction debated, Zhang Song was an indispensable main combat power and an important mouth-watering faction.

Without Zhang Song, Liu Zhang would not have dared to imagine that he was surrounded by a group of scholars from the surrendered sect all day long to cause mental pollution.

Maybe now he has lost confidence and surrendered.

Thanks to Zhang Song.

He was as fierce as a tiger, and turned his mouth into a cannon, stumbled and covered his face with local officials and officials from the surrendered squad, which was almost mentally ill.

Then the most exciting scene came. Zhang Song defeated many officials of the surrendered sect, and then fought against Xu Jing, the grandmaster-level verbal cannon.

They turned what they learned in their lives into ammunition, turned a sharp mouth into a maxim, and started a mouth fight.

Sometimes, the debate between the mouth cannons is comparable to the immediate fight between the generals, and it is even more intense. It is just that the generals are a physical life-death duel, while the mouth cannons are a spiritual life-death duel.

If anyone loses, he will not be able to raise his head in front of others in the future. For those who say whisper, it is death in the social sense.

Because this battle is too fierce and legendary, the two of them have been widely circulated in Chengdu City so far and wide and are raising a strange story.

Of course, Zhang Song was the one who won, and Xu Jing's old face was completely lost.

Because of his previous outstanding performance, this time, Zhang Song still took on an important role and went to persuade the monks to contribute to Liu Zhang.

In order to win the support of the stakes, Liu Zhang endured his heartache and gave the amount of money that the stakes leader could hardly refuse.

In Zhang Song's opinion, such a number should be those who are not only greedy but also poor, and he is very confident.

After arriving at the residence of the monks, Zhang Song was indeed warmly treated by the leader of the monks.

When he expressed his intention and gave Liu Zhang the amount of reward he promised, all the leaders of the vassals were shining and the corners of their mouths were about to flow out.

Most people's lives are relatively primitive, and their living standards are not as high as those of the Han people in all aspects, so the behavior they engage in is more like mercenaries than fighting for their ideals.

Whoever pays more will fight for whom, and also talks about rules and reason, so they have good reputations, so there are always people who are willing to hire people to fight.

This time, in the eyes of the people, it was nothing different from usual, and they were all collecting money to fight.

So many leaders of the monk agreed to Zhang Song, willing to send troops to help Liu Zhang fight, guard against the attack of the Wei army in Hanzhong, and promised to mobilize tribe members, and people from the age of sixteen to sixty must be mobilized.

However, just when Zhang Song felt that he was about to finish his work, some slight variables appeared.

There is a small guard named Wang Ping next to Park Hu.

He was very young, only fifteen years old, but because of his bravery, fighting and speaking Chinese, he was attracted by Park Hu, so he took him by his side as a little personal soldier, and he loved him very much.

When he was young, he grew up at his grandfather's house. His grandfather's family was a Han farmer. Wang Ping learned to speak Chinese at his grandfather's house. He did not recognize any words, but could speak Chinese, which was no different from ordinary Han people.

However, among the group of people, Wang Ping is considered an intellectual too big, so he was able to follow Park Hu.

When Zhang Song attacked Park Hu, Wang Ping stood by and heard what Zhang Song said, feeling very unreliable. So after Park Hu accepted Zhang Song's gift, he privately advised Park Hu and advised Park Hu.

"Chief, I don't think we can believe what Zhang Song said."

Park Hu Sulai glanced at Wang Ping high, and it was a little strange when he heard Wang Ping say this.

"Why do you say that?"

"He said it so nicely, and the courtesy was too heavy."
