Chapter 801 The Six Gods Have No Master
Liangzhou people were originally rough-tempered, and robbing good people was commonplace. However, since Liu Ye led the army, they have strictly enforced military discipline and either beat or killed soldiers who robbed people's property. Evil men need to be punished by evil men. When they encountered the murderous Liu Ye, the Liangzhou soldiers were naturally frightened and did not dare to plunder. Liu Ye also increased the Liangzhou army's food and salary and provided ideological education to them from time to time. Therefore, the situation was much better. At least they won't kill civilians indiscriminately.
Hearing the words of the forward army Sima Zhi, the black-faced young man cried: "It's just because my mother is old and her legs and feet are not flexible, she dare not stop the army."
The Army Sima frowned and pointed at a few sergeants: "You, you, and the rest of you, go and carry this old lady aside, don't hinder our army."
"Here!"
Several tough Liangzhou soldiers had already stepped forward, lifted the old woman up without saying a word, and moved her to a safe area.
"Be careful in the future. It's a good thing that you met me, the King of Xiliang, today. Otherwise, I'm afraid that both of you would have lost your head."
"Yes, yes, thank you, thank you!"
Unexpectedly, they had escaped such a disaster. Naturally, the young mother and son were overjoyed and hurriedly bowed down to express their thanks.
Several Liangzhou soldiers nodded, didn't care, turned around and went back to the team.
"Mom, God is so merciful. I thought we were going to lose our heads and body." The young man said happily.
"Yes, this army seems different from the ordinary army. What is it called?" the old woman said happily.
"It seems to be some kind of Xiliang King Master."
"Master Xiliang?"
The old woman was surprised and said: "But is it the army under General Liu? I didn't expect that the Xiliang King's division would have such strict military discipline. General Liu is really a famous general in the world."
The old woman and the young mother and son sighed for a while, and the young man helped the old woman walk away. At this time, Zhang Jia and Meng Da had already arrived under Chengdu.
"Chengdu is really a fortified city. If we attack it by force and the enemy resists resolutely, it will take at least 30,000 to 50,000 troops to capture it."
Witnessing the majestic jaw opening of Chengdu with my own eyes, I couldn’t help but sigh with emotion.
Chengdu is the capital of Sichuan, and the scale of its city walls is naturally second to none, even compared to those big cities and towns in the Central Plains. The city walls are five feet high, tall and generous. If Liu Zhang refused to surrender, Zhang Jia would definitely not be able to send troops to attack. , I am afraid that if all the more than 10,000 soldiers and horses under my command are filled in, they will not be able to capture the city of Chengdu.
"General, please write a letter to Liu Zhang. Liu Zhang will be frightened after reading it. In all likelihood, he will recall Zhang Ren from Jiange. At that time, the general will be able to lead the army and march straight in, and the middle of Shu will be within easy reach." Meng Da on the side. He reminded him verbally.
"good!"
Zhang He readily agreed, and then wrote a letter in his own hand, and then ordered the Chinese military officials to serve as envoys and carry the handwritten letter into the city.
In the city, the meeting hall.
"What? The enemy is coming?"
Liu Zhang was playing with his beloved concubine in the back garden, but unexpectedly, he suddenly learned that a group of soldiers and horses were coming from outside the city, and his fat face turned pale with fear.
"My lord, there is no need to panic!"
A voice came into the hall, Liu Zhang looked up and saw Huang Quan walking quickly into the hall with a calm expression.
Seeing Huang Quan coming, Liu Zhang suddenly had a backbone and said with great joy: "Huang, please come here at the right time."
"The lower official pays homage to the governor."
After Huang Quan saluted Liu Zhang, he said bluntly: "My lord, there is no need to panic. Not to mention how many troops there are in the enemy army. Our troops in Chengdu are well equipped with more than 10,000 troops and ten years of food and grass. Even if the enemy troops attack the city, we will not be able to do it." Don’t be afraid.”
"The key now is to determine which route the enemy troops are from and where they appear from."
After hearing Huang Quan's analysis, Liu Zhang calmed down and said, "You are right. I will send someone out to find out who the enemy is."
"Report!"
Before Liu Zhang finished speaking, a soldier walked into the hall, knelt on one knee and said: "The enemy forces outside the city sent an envoy into the city to request an interview with the Zhou Mu."
"ah?"
Liu Zhang was startled. Huang Quan gave him a look, as if he had received reassurance. Liu Zhang nodded and said, "Invite him in."
Not long after, a Chinese official from Zhang Jiao's army walked into the hall and said, neither humble nor arrogant: "I'm going to the Xiliang Army, General Zhang's subordinate Wang Wen, to pay homage to Liu Yizhou."
"Messengers are exempt from courtesy."
Liu Zhang asked: "General Zhang, who is General Zhang?"
"Of course he is the emperor's personal appointment, General Zhennan."
Huang Quan frowned and opened his jaw. He was not an easy opponent.
"Ah" Liu Zhang was stunned for a moment, not knowing what to say.
Seeing this, Huang Quan took the initiative to stand up and take over the conversation and said: "This envoy, I really admire General Zhang's magic troops coming from the sky, but I don't know where General Zhang came from, and suddenly he came to Chengdu with his troops. ?”
Wang Wen had long heard Huang Quan wanted to spy on him, but he didn't care. He said bluntly: "General Zhang led our Xiliang Army's 30,000 troops, crossed the Yinping Trail, and conquered Mianzhu Pass in one day. Liu Yizhou fought for his wealth and life. For the sake of thinking, it’s better to surrender quickly, otherwise if the city is broken, then... hum!"
"Thirty thousand people?"
Liu Zhang whispered, his face became paler, and his chubby face looked like a bun sprinkled with powder.
Huang Quan frowned: "Thirty thousand people crossed the Yinping Trail? Haha, the envoy is probably bluffing, right?"
The road to Yinping Mountain is difficult and dangerous, and 10,000 people is the limit. It is naturally impossible to lead 30,000 people. Wang Wenwen originally exaggerated the number of people to bluff, but he didn't want Huang Quan to see the flaw, so he was stunned.
Wang Wen said angrily: "What? Is it possible that you are still planning to compete with Master Wang? Mianzhu Pass is a lesson learned from the past. My army captured Mianzhu Pass in less than half a day. Can't we capture Chengdu?"
Liu Zhang was even more disgusted when he heard this. There were Wu Yi's 5,000 troops at Mianzhu Pass (Zhang Ren sent Meng Da's 2,000 men, but Liu Zhang didn't know it), but they were defeated by the enemy in half a day. Even if Chengdu was well equipped with troops and food, , I’m afraid it won’t last long, right?
Huang Quan snorted coldly: "Please come back, envoy. If you really have 30,000 troops, then just attack the city. Why bother talking more?"
"snort!"
Wang Wen said angrily: "I didn't expect that this is Liu Yizhou's way of hospitality. I really appreciate it."
"Since Liu Yizhou is so ignorant of praise, it's hard to say what will happen after he conquers Chengdu!"
After Wang Wen said a few words, he turned around angrily and left. The sound of his shoes squelching showed the anger in his heart.
"oops!"
After Wang Wen left, Liu Zhang said anxiously: "Huang Biejia, what's going on with you? Since the enemy army can capture Mianzhu Pass in half a day, can't they capture Chengdu? You said such harsh words, wait until he goes back and tell him If we open our jaws, aren't we going to die?"
