Zhang Wei repelled Zhang Liao's attack today, this is the first offensive and defensive battle, and Zhang Wei himself is not clear.

Zhang Wei, who had been highly nervous for a long time, was now exhausted. But Zhang Wei didn't dare to slack off, because he knew that as long as he was not careful, he might be picked up by Zhang Liao.

Pingyang Pass is the only way to enter Hanzhong, as long as you hold here, Hanzhong will be safe. Zhang Wei still doesn't know that Zhang Lu has retreated from Shangyong, he feels that his eldest brother is much stronger than him, he can hold Pingyang Pass, and Zhang Lu has no problem holding Shangyong.

Zhang Wei didn't know that Huang Xu and the others had slowly approached Pingyang Pass, preparing to launch an attack in the middle of the night.

Zhang Wei patrolled the night defense as usual, looking at the Zhang Liao military camp outside the pass, Zhang Wei was full of confidence, even if Zhang Liao had 100,000 soldiers and horses, he would not be able to cross this Pingyang Pass.

At this moment, Huang Xu's troops slowly touched not far from Pingyang Pass. A defender with a sharp ear on the pass suddenly noticed a sound behind him, and after a closer look, a large number of men and horses appeared, and hurriedly warned: "There is a large group of men and horses at the other end of the pass!" ”

"Kill!" After being discovered, Huang Xu no longer hid and rushed out openly.

"Enemy attack!" The defenders, who found out about the situation, hurriedly shouted and told their companions.

"What's going on! How did the enemy run to the back! Zhang Wei was frightened, he estimated that he should have been tricked.

"General, the little one grew up here, and there is a path to bypass Pingyang Pass." A local immediately answered Zhang Wei's doubts.

"Bastard! Why not say it sooner! Prepare quickly, Zhang Liao's side will definitely attack. Zhang Wei hurriedly ordered.

"Rocket ready! Shoot Ben General! Huang Xu remembered the agreement with Zhang Liao and ordered his subordinates to launch rockets at Pingyang Pass.

For a while, the flames were everywhere.

Zhang Liao at the other end of Pingyang Pass had already prepared, and as soon as he saw the fire, he immediately said excitedly: "General Huang has passed smoothly, and now it's our turn to exert our might." The whole army obeys the order! Be sure to capture Binh Duong Pass tonight! ”

Without Zhang Liao's orders, his troops had already stayed here for too long, advancing quickly one by one, and attacking Pingyang Pass on both sides with friendly forces.

Zhang Liao and Huang Xu formed a situation of attacking from both sides, and Zhang Wei was under great pressure.

Zhang Wei knew very well that he would definitely be attacked next, and the morale of the defenders at Pingyang Pass was extremely low.

"General, let's break out quickly. Otherwise, it's all here. The adjutant general hurriedly suggested to Zhang Wei.

"Breakout?! Pingyang Pass is lost, Hanzhong has no danger to defend, don't we all fail! Lao Tzu died in battle, and he won't leave! Zhang Wei angrily shouted at his lieutenant.

When the deputy general was about to continue the persuasion, he only heard a loud noise, and Huang Xu and the others broke through the gate and entered the city.

"Quickly lead the general to break through!" The adjutant general ordered his soldiers to take Zhang Wei away.

Zhang Wei's heart was like ashes, and he held on to Pingyang Pass for so long because of his imprudent momentary carelessness, which led to the loss of Pingyang Pass. Zhang Wei had nothing to say, so he let his soldiers and deputy generals take him away.

Huang Xu's troops were not so strong, they mainly wanted to open the gate at the other end of Pingyang Pass, and they didn't care about Zhang Wei's breakthrough action at all.

Pingyang Pass was captured by Zhang Liao.

Zhang Wei and the others fled back to Nanzheng in embarrassment. As soon as he returned to Nanzheng, Zhang Wei found that Zhang Lu had returned to Nanzheng.

"Brother, why are you back? Can't keep it? Zhang Wei asked in surprise.

Zhang Lu looked at Zhang Wei's tired face, and knew that Zhang Wei had experienced a long battle, and sighed and said, "Brother has worked hard. For the brother is also withdrawn. ”

"Brother, what should I do next? Pingyang Pass was also lost, Liu Yu's two armies were killed, and Hanzhong had no danger to defend. Zhang Wei didn't ask Zhang Lu how the battle was, and hurriedly asked about the next move.

"I don't know what to do?" Zhang Lu said dejectedly.

Yan Pu suggested: "My lord, Liu Yu is powerful, so it is better for our army to move westward again in order to achieve after-effects." ”

"It's hard. Liu Zhang has already sent a large number of troops, ready to block all our back roads. If it weren't for the protection of the plank road, Liu Zhang would have pounced a long time ago. Moving west, it won't work. There are all deep mountains and old forests over there, and if Liu Yu doesn't encircle and suppress us, we will all starve to death there. Zhang Lu rejected Yan Pu's suggestion.

Yan Pu had nothing to say and retreated directly.

Zhang Wei stood up and said impassionedly: "Brother, I'd rather be broken than broken." We fought with Liu Yu to let Liu Yu know that we are not easy to mess with. ”

"Fight? What to fight. Liu Yu's two armies add up to more than 100,000 troops, how many troops can fight in my Hanzhong? The inheritance left by my father is the Heavenly Master Dao, in case you and I both die, who else can carry forward the Heavenly Master Dao. Zhang Lu scolded at Zhang Wei.

"So what to do! It's not a retreat, it's not a fight, is it surrender!? Zhang Wei is also angry.

Zhang Lu was silent for a moment, nodded and said, "That's right, I decided to surrender." ”

"Huh?!" Everyone was amazed.

"Brother, you're not kidding." Zhang Wei's eyes widened.

Zhang Lu closed his eyes and nodded his head to express his thoughts.

"I'm against it! Liu Yu made trouble for no reason, invaded my Hanzhong, and surrendered like this. What face do we have to stand between heaven and earth! Zhang Wei was so angry that he jumped to his feet.

"Bastard thing! As an official of the imperial court, I eat the food of the imperial court. Now because I made a mistake and King Zhao sent troops to seek revenge, I can't resist Tianwei, why not surrender in Kaesong. Virtuous brother, listen to the advice of the brother, the eldest husband can bend and stretch, and he can't lose his life because of a momentary anger. As a brother, there is only one brother like you. Zhang Lu scolded Zhang Wei bitterly, and finally said that Zhang Lu had tears in the corners of his eyes.

Zhang Wei was ashamed of what Zhang Lu said.

"The matter was decided. I decided to seal all the treasury of Hanzhong, all the troops were encamped on the spot, the local officials appeased the people, and the others surrendered to the king of Zhao with me. Zhang Lu saw that Zhang Wei had nothing to say, so he came down directly to order.

"We will obey the orders of the lord." Zhang Lu's subordinates saw that Zhang Wei no longer objected, and they also obeyed Zhang Lu's orders.

Zhang Lu sent Yan Pu to Liu Yu as an emissary to express his willingness to surrender.

After Liu Yu received the news conveyed by Yan Pu, he was shocked for a while.

"Why didn't your lord surrender before, but only now? This king doesn't believe it. Is there some conspiracy? Liu Yu was a little puzzled why Zhang Lu didn't surrender before, but now.

Yan Pu was a clever person, and hurriedly smiled: "My lord made a mistake before, which provoked the prince's heavenly soldiers to crusade. My lord knew that he was guilty of a great sin, and he could not bear to kill again, so he surrendered to Kaicheng. ”

"Okay, this king believes Zhang Lu this time." Liu Yu said with a smile.
