Liu Bei also had a fierce face.

If there was no death of Liu Feng and Guan Ping, and without Yan Yan's contribution, he was willing to let Liu Zhang live, because to realize his ideals, he could only do this.

But now that Yan Yan has counterattacked, Liu Bei has the ability to break the city and kill Liu Zhang, how can he let go of this opportunity?

..............

That night, Sun Qian had already left Chengdu. According to Liu Bei's order, Yan Yan led his troops and horses to open the West City, and Guan Yu personally led 20,000 elites into the city.

"Kill..."

Guan Yu was extremely brave, and in order to take revenge, the enemy troops along the way were bound to die.

Liu Zhang learned that Liu Bei had broken the city, and he was so frightened that he hurriedly fled.

Huang Quan took him from the south gate, accompanied by more than 1,000 soldiers, preparing to go to Nanzhong for temporary refuge. However, Wei Yan led a cavalry and blocked the south gate and easily captured Liu Zhang.

Since then, Liu Zhang, who has been running Yizhou for many years, has completely perished.

Liu Bei succeeded him in charge of Yizhou and became the new lord of Yizhou.

This is a big victory that Liu Bei and his civil and military forces have not won for many years, and it also shows that from now on, Liu Bei will become the third largest prince in the world.

However, there are good and bad things.

Although Liu Bei captured Yizhou, because Jingnan's troops were too small, and Zhuge Liang's enemy was the resourceful Sima Yi, after a battle, Zhuge Liang could only take a large number of family members and enter Yizhou along Fucheng. Lost the four counties of Jingnan to Sima Yi.

Jizhou.

Yecheng Mansion.

Yuan Xi was still planning about the recruitment conference, and discussed the location, conditions and process of recruiting talents with Fu Zhi.

Wen Chou sent two letters.

"My lord, there is good news and bad news for the general, which one do you look at first?" Wen Chou held the letter in his hand.

"You've learned to sell off, too? Bring them all. Yuan Xi snatched the letter.

The frustrated professor sitting on the side smiled and said, "General Wen Chou, I didn't expect you to be literate and understand letters?" ”

Wen Chou smiled back and said, "Mr. Fu, you can underestimate it. Don't look like I'm rough, but I can not only read letters, but I can also write letters. ”

"Haha..."

Frustrated and laughed.

Yuan Xi shook his head after reading the two letters: "I didn't expect it, I really didn't expect it..." ”

"What didn't you expect, lord?"

"Look." Yuan Xi handed a letter to Fu Zhu: "This is news from the Central Plains. Exactly... It was the meticulous work we planted in Cao Cao's place, and the information we obtained was urgently sent back to Yecheng. The letter said that Liu Bei and Liu Zhang had become enemies, and had captured Chengdu, Liu Zhang was also killed, and the entire Yizhou would be owned by Liu Bei. And Zhuge Liang was ordered to garrison Jingnan, but he was defeated by Sima Yi and retreated to Yizhou. It's only been a few months, and this big thing has happened. We only had Cao Cao, our great enemy. Although Liu Bei has ambitions, he has no strength. But now, Cao Cao has won the whole of Jingzhou, and his strength has risen sharply. Liu Bei won the twelve counties of Yizhou, and he also had the strength to compete in the Central Plains. This equals... We have two more strong enemies. ”

"My lord didn't expect things to go so fast, did he?" Frustrated.

"I really didn't expect it. I thought that Liu Zhang should stick to it for a year no matter how much he nested, but he was defeated in less than half a year. This also proves that Liu Bei's strength and means are stronger than we imagined. ”

Yuan Xi couldn't help but fall into deep thought.

Before Liu Bei got Yizhou, although Zhuge Liang helped him, Yuan Xi never took him seriously. And now that Liu Bei has won the entire Yizhou, he has become a force to be reckoned with.

Yuan Xi secretly decided to pay more attention to Liu Bei in the future.

Strike when it's time to strike, and never be ambiguous.

"My lord, what about another letter?" Wen Chou reminded.

"There is also a letter of good news. He Mao, the deputy governor of Youzhou, and Chun Yuqiong, the governor of Goguryeo, led 15,000 soldiers to fight in Korea, and arrested Hu Bingyun, the chief of Korea, and more than 400 of his comrades. At the end of September, he was escorted to Yecheng. Yuan Xi said.

"That's a good thing indeed."

"It just so happens that we want to recruit talents, take Hu Bingyun as a negative teaching material, and behead him in front of many students, which will definitely receive a miracle effect that shocks people's hearts." Frustrated said.

"Hmm." Yuan Xi instructed: "This matter will be handed over to the Criminal Department." A stern warning to the officials of the states and counties! ”

"Yes."

Frustrated with the two letters and left.

Regarding the recruitment of talents, it has been almost discussed, and the next thing is to wait. In another half a month, students from all over the world will come to Yecheng to participate in this grand recruitment event.

Hebei's officials will also usher in a major purge.

..............

Mid-August.

Xu Huang and Sima Yi led their troops to occupy Jingnan.

Zhuge Liang entered Sichuan along Fucheng, joined Liu Bei, and successively surrendered Liu Zhang's old department, about more than 100,000 people. Officials from various counties in Yizhou also took refuge one after another.

As a result, Liu Bei's strength has multiplied, reaching more than twice the maximum number of troops.

In addition, the counties of Yizhou have very few wars, large populations, and rich resources.

If this situation continues, it is quite scary.

After getting Yizhou, Liu Bei held a large-scale meeting for the first time. The people who participated in the meeting included Zhuge Liang, Zhang Song, Fa Zheng, Sun Qian, Guan Yu, Zhao Yun, etc., and there were always 100 civil and military personnel.

Liu Bei said: "In the past two months, our strength has increased greatly, and we already have 150,000 troops. In addition to the counties and dangerous passes, there are 100,000 who can be mobilized, and I am ready to personally lead 100,000 troops to crusade against Zhang Lu and recover Hanzhong. ”

As soon as Liu Bei's words were finished, Fa Zheng arched his hand and said: "Hanzhong is the gateway to Yizhou and belongs to part of Yizhou. In the past, Zhang Lu served as the Taishou of Hanzhong, and he was an official of my Yizhou, but he did not listen to the dispatch and gradually became independent. Liu Zhang was cowardly and did not dare to compete with him, so he ceded Hanzhong. Now that the lord is here, it is time for Zhang Lu to return to Hanzhong. ”

Zhang Song said: "Hanzhong is a very important strategic place. To the west is Liangzhou, through Qishan, up to Sanfu, straight to Chang'an. There is Neijiang River to the east, and down the river, you can go to Xiangyang and Fancheng area. ”

"If the lord can occupy it, he can look at the Central Plains and challenge Cao Cao at any time. On the contrary, if Cao Cao is allowed to get Hanzhong, he can block my army in Shuzhong to the south of Jiange Pass. The lord should know that to the south of the Sword Pavilion, there are hundreds of miles of plank roads, and it is extremely difficult to march. The supply of grain and grass is insufficient, and it is easy to fall short. Therefore, the lord cannot hesitate, the sooner he eliminates Zhang Lu, the better. ”

"Filial piety, Ziqiao, it makes sense!" Liu Bei smiled and nodded.

"It's just that Zhang Lu has been entrenched in Hanzhong for many years, and he has more than 70,000 troops. It is not easy for us to make contributions. "Fa Zhengdao.

"Hmph, isn't it Zhang Lu. What is there to fear? Zhang Fei looked disdainful, stood up and said: "Brother, you give me 20,000 troops, I promise to kill Zhang Lu and take Hanzhong!" If not, you cut off my head! ”

"Yide, the lord has already said just now that he wants to lead the army to fight in person, why do you ask for a battle alone?" Zhao Yun dragged him down.

Zhang Fei said angrily: "A little Zhang Lu, why do you need your brother to recruit in person?" I only need 20,000... No, I only need 10,000 soldiers and horses, and I will definitely be able to capture them! ”
