Liu Du ordered Zhao Yun and Li Dao to guard a village, returned to Fucheng, and discussed with the military advisor Li Ru. The detailed report said: "Hanzhong Zhang Lu and Huo Jun wrote a letter, wanting to get Jia Mengguan. ”

Meng Da exclaimed: "If Jia Meng Pass is lost, the back road is cut off, and the lord cannot advance or retreat, so it is advisable to send a general to guard the town in a hurry." ”

Liu Du smiled and said to Meng Da: "Meng Da doesn't have to worry, Huo Jun is loyal and brave, how can he agree with Zhang Lu and others?" Jia Meng Guan is worry-free. ”

Li Ru returned to the building, and the doorman suddenly came to report: "A guest has come to visit." ”

Li Ru came out to greet him, and seeing that he was eight feet long and heroic, Li Ru asked, "Who is Mr.?" ”

The man did not answer, but said, "Stop, let me tell you about the great things of the world." ”

Li Ru was even more puzzled when he heard him say this, and ordered people to serve wine and food left and right. The man got up and sat down to eat, and there was no humility.

The man ate a lot, and after eating he fell asleep. Li Ru was puzzled, and asked people to ask Fa Zheng to come and see, for fear that the person would do something carefully. Fa Zheng hurriedly arrived, and Li Ru came out to greet him, and said to Fa Zheng that the man was wandering.

Fa Zheng exclaimed: "Could it be Peng Yongyan? ”

Fa Zheng walked into the house and took a look, and the person from before jumped up and said, "Don't be harmed by filial piety!" ”

Fa Zheng met the man, and each of them stroked their palms and smiled. Li Ru asked Fa Zhengdao on the side: "I don't know who this is?" ”

Fa Zheng said: "This prince is a Guanghan person, surnamed Peng, named Yi, the word Yongyan, and a hero in Shu. Because of his outspokenness, he angered Liu Zhang, and was condemned to slavery by Liu Zhang. ”

Li Ru then treated him with the courtesy of a guest and asked, "Where did Mr. come from?" ”

Peng Yi replied: "I have come to save tens of thousands of lives, and I can only say it when I see General Liu." ”

Fa Zheng hurriedly reported to Liu Du, and Liu Du came to visit him in person and asked him: "Mr. bluntly said that this is here to save the lives of tens of thousands of soldiers, I don't know what it means?" ”

Peng Yi asked, "How many military horses does the general have in Qianzhai?" ”

Liu Du told the truth: "There are Zhao Yun and Li Dao there. ”

Peng Yi smiled: "For the way of the general, how can you not know the geography?" The front village is close to the Fujiang River, if the river is decided, the front and rear are jammed with soldiers, and no one can escape. ”

Liu Du suddenly realized, and Peng Yi said again: "Gangxing is in the west, Taibai is here, when there is something unlucky, you should be cautious." ”

Liu Du then worshiped Peng Yi as a guest, sent people to report to Zhao Yun and Li Dao, and taught them to patrol the police day and night to prevent Liu Zhang's army from breaking the water. Zhao Yun and Wei Yan discussed: the two of them had one day each; In case of enemy arrivals, inform each other.

On Liu Zhangjun's side, Ling Bao saw that the night was stormy, and led 5,000 sergeants to advance straight along the river, preparing to break the river. I only heard the shouts behind me, and Ling Bao knew that Liu Du had already prepared and hurriedly returned to the army.

Zhao Yun led the army to rush in front, and Ling Bao was running and bumped into Zhao Yun, and the two of them were captured alive by Zhao Yun. When Wu Lan and Lei Tong came to respond, they were killed and retreated by Li Dao's army.

Zhao Yun escorted Ling Bao to Fuguan, and Liu Du reprimanded him: "I treat each other with benevolence and righteousness, let you go back, how dare you betray me!" It's hard to forgive me now! ”

Liu Du drank the order to push out the Ling Bud and behead it, rewarded Zhao Yun again, and then set up a banquet to treat Peng Yi.

During the banquet, someone suddenly reported: Jingzhou Zhuge Liang's military division sent Ma Liang to write here.

Liu Du summoned Ma Liang to come in and ask, and after Ma Liang greeted him one by one, he said to Liu Du: "Jingzhou is safe, don't worry about the lord." ”

Ma Liang then presented Zhuge Liang's letter, Liu Du opened the letter and read it, which roughly said: "Liang Wen knows that the lord and Liu Zhang have broken up, and this lord has a good opportunity to enter Xichuan. However, the terrain in the middle of the river is rugged, and there are many soldiers and food, so it cannot be held for a long time. Liang asked for the order to personally lead the generals into Sichuan, divide the troops with the lord, and encircle Yizhou. ”

Liu Du read the book and taught Ma Liang to go back first. Liu Du smiled and said to everyone: "Zhuge Junshi wants to lead the army into Sichuan and attack from the south, echoing me. If Zhuge military division comes, Yizhou can take it as soon as possible! ”

Li Ru thought to himself: "Zhuge Liang was afraid that I would take Xichuan and make a great contribution, so he deliberately brought troops to compete with me. ”

Li Ru then said to Liu Du: "Although Kong Ming is good at leading troops, Yan Yan and other generals in Sichuan are not idle people. Confucianism is willing to personally lead the army to attack the city, and capture the city as soon as possible, which can also make Kong Ming's army unhindered. ”

Liu Du waved his hand and said: "Wen You, you are our military division, you only need to sit in the Chinese army to plan, how can you personally lead the army to attack the city?" ”

Li Ru insisted on leading the army to attack the city: "Confucianism is not talented, but also proficient in attacking fortified positions." This time, our army has been blocked under the city for a long time, and it cannot be delayed for a long time. Our army's food and grass are not as good as Liu Zhang's, and the benefits are in a hurry. Li Ru, as the division of the main public army, if he personally led the army to attack the city, he would definitely be able to boost morale and take the city in one go. ”

Liu Du had no choice but to let Li Ru lead the army to attack the city, and Li Ru was not ambiguous, first boosting morale, and then surrounding the city to lure the enemy and attacking the west. Liu Dujun attacked the city wall several times, but was repelled by Zhang Ren, Wu Lan and other generals.

Li Ru then ordered Liao Hua to make a plan to surrender, but unfortunately Zhang Ren saw through, and then Li Ru led the army to attack for three days, but still failed to capture the city.

The repeated failures made Li Ru lose face in front of Liu Du and the soldiers, Li Ru looked at the generals angrily and said: "In the coming day, I will personally lead an army to attack the West Gate by a small road, and if I feint defeat and leave, it will come to pursue." General Pan Feng led an army to meet in the rear, and Liao Hua led a thousand soldiers to lie in ambush on the valley, and when the enemy came to chase him, he put down the radium rolling wood to cut off his retreat. Our army covered the past and counterattacked the enemy. General Zhao Yun did not lead Bai Ma Yi to go around and rush into the city gate. ”

The generals led the strategy to go down, Li Ru led two thousand soldiers from the small road to the west gate, pointed to the city guard Lei Tong and scolded: "Lei Tong Pifu, Ru'an dares to stop Brother Liu's army? Liu Zhang will be defeated in today's matter, I advise you to surrender as soon as possible, so as not to lose your life! ”

Lei Tong was a little hesitant when he heard this, but he saw a general walking beside him, wearing silver armor, splendid robes, and a heroic face, it was Zhang Ren. Zhang Ren patted Lei Tong on the shoulder and said, "General Lei, don't fall for Li Ru's plan to lure the enemy!" ”

Only then did Lei Tong react, only to see that Li Ru had already waved his army to attack the city, and Liu Du's army attacked for a while with heavy casualties, and then retreated in a hurry. Zhang Ren stopped Lei Tong, who wanted to go out of the city to pursue, shook his head and said, "Don't pursue, let the strong crossbowmen release their arrows!" ”

Liu Zhangjun's crossbowmen immediately stepped forward and shot a row of hard crossbows that had been prepared at Li Ru and the others. Li Ru was running when an arrow suddenly shot at him, hitting Li Ru's heart.

Li Ru fell from his horse with an arrow, and Liu Dujun fled in a big rout. Lei Tong in the city saw it, was overjoyed, and said to Zhang Ren: "General Zhang, Li Ru was hit by an arrow, when will the enemy not pursue at this time?" ”

Zhang Ren immediately ordered to open the city gate to attack, Liu Dujun was driven into the mountain road, the road was narrow and narrow and there were pursuers behind, Liu Du's soldiers and horses trampled on each other, and the dead were innumerable.

Lei Tong led the troops to pursue for a while, but saw that Zhang Ren did not follow behind, so he gave up the pursuit and returned to the city. It turned out that Zhang Renyuan saw the Dongpo men and horses flag flashing, and knew that it must be an ambush set by Li Ru, so he led the army straight to meet the people.

I saw that the small flag of the incoming soldiers was under the banner of the word "Zhao", and the first general was wearing silver armor and white robes, riding a white horse, and holding a bright silver gun, which was Zhao Yun. Zhao Yun saw that the enemy army had already prepared, so he slapped his horse and speared Zhang Ren directly.

Zhang Ren saw that he would not greet him, but he would come to fight with a gun, and he would also ride a horse and a gun to meet him. Zhang Ren is confident that his marksmanship is unsurpassed in Sichuan, and when he fought with Zhang Lu, he relied on a set of hundred birds and phoenix marksmanship to beat the generals of Hanzhong, known as the "Hanzhong Gun God"!

Zhang Ren came up with a set of Hundred Birds Towards the Phoenix Marksmanship and swept straight at Zhao Yun, although Zhao Yun was shocked, he did not dare to slack off, and also used the Hundred Birds Towards the Phoenix Spear. The generals of the two families were stunned for a moment, only to see that the spears in the hands of Zhao Yun and Zhang Ren seemed to be fused with their arms, constantly stabbing each other one after another.

Both of them sped up their speeds, and as Zhao Yun shot faster and faster, Zhang Ren began to be a little unable to support it. Zhang Ren, as Tong Yuan's second disciple, is different from Zhang Xiu, he prefers to learn the art of war, and he naturally did not practice as diligently as Zhang Xiu and Zhao Yun for the set of Hundred Birds Chaofeng marksmanship taught to him by Tong Yuan.

Zhao Yun saw the opportunity, and opened the spear in Zhang Ren's hand with a shot, and with a move "Fengming Nine Heavens", the spear jumped up and wanted to attack Zhang Ren's face, but it suddenly slammed into Zhang Ren's right arm and stabbed Zhang Ren. Zhang Ren was shocked and hurriedly turned his horse away.

Zhao Yun was about to pursue, but saw several Li Ru's subordinates who had escaped crying to Zhao Yun: "General Zhao, Li Junshi was killed by an arrow!" ”

Zhao Yun was shocked when he heard this, Li Ru was dead, indicating that there must be precautions in the city, and if he pursued him again, he was afraid that he would be ambushed. Zhao Yun then ordered the army to withdraw to the camp and report Li Ru's death to Liu Duyu.
