Chapter 365: If you are not afraid of death, then die
Yang Huai is not as loyal as Deng Xian, he is also a native of Yizhou, so naturally he also has to consider the interests and losses of the Yizhou scholars, and his subordinates are all local Yizhou soldiers.
Deng Xian saw that Yang Huai had been shaken, and began to hesitate, and hurriedly said loudly: "General Yang Huai, what else is there to hesitate with them?" The Lord treats you well, and you can't do treacherous things. We die for the Lord, so why should we be afraid of death? β
Yang Huai didn't respond to him, but frowned even tighter.
Zhang Song watched it clearly from the sidelines, but he made a decision immediately, "The surname is Deng, are you not afraid of death?" Then you go to die! β
As soon as the words fell, the leader of the guards behind Zhang Su stepped forward and rushed to Deng Xian's body, his hand raised his knife, and cut off Deng Xian's head like lightning, splashing blood!
Before everyone could react, Deng Xian was already in a different place.
Deng Xian's guards saw Deng Xian being killed, and wanted to draw their knives to make a move, but the leader of the guards moved faster, slashing them all to the ground one by one, that ruthlessness, that speed, made people look sideways.
Then, he put the knife on Yang Huai's neck, as a general, Yang Huai didn't react, and he was captured.
Feeling the chill from the blade on his neck, and the imaginable sharpness, Yang Huai's face turned white with fright.
"Master Zhang, stop, there is something to say, there is something to say!" Yang Huai shouted with a crying voice.
The guard gently raised the treasure knife in his hand, "General Yang Huai, there is nothing to say, either surrender or die!" β
Yang Huai didn't dare to move, but asked tremblingly, "This hero, I don't know who you are?" The noodles are very raw. β
"Some, Xiliang Ma Chao is also, don't talk nonsense, it's all gentlemen, give a happy word, is it down or not?"
As he spoke, Ma Chao's treasure knife added a little force, and the sharp blade had already cut through Yang Huai's neck, and a wisp of blood slowly flowed down.
Yang Huai hurriedly raised his hands, "General Ma Chao, I have admired the name for a long time, don't kill me, I surrender, I surrender!" β
When his guards saw that their generals had surrendered, they hurriedly threw away their sabers and raised their hands to surrender.
Ma Chao laughed, he put away the treasure knife, walked to the courtyard, and shouted: "Deng Xian is dead, Yang Huai has surrendered, wait for surrender to avoid death, and those who resist will not be killed!" β
The soldiers of the Central Army Guard Company and the guards of the Taishou Mansion immediately swarmed out from all directions, aiming their crossbows, longbows, and spears at Deng Xian and Yang Huai's guards in the courtyard.
When Yang Huai's guards heard that the main general had surrendered, they hurriedly threw away their weapons and stood aside, lest they be killed by mistake.
When Deng Xian's guards heard that Deng Xian was dead, they were agitated, drew their swords and wanted to rush into the hall.
The Central Army would not be polite to them, dozens of crossbows, shooting at close range, shot down twenty or thirty people at once.
The remaining Deng Xian's guards saw that the general trend was gone, and the opponent really hurt the killer, and they didn't dare to move anymore, so they were lucky and surrendered one after another!
Seeing that the situation was stable, Ma Chao took out three green signal flares from his arms and shot them into the sky.
This is a signal of agreement with the army outside the city, which means that the situation in the city has been settled and the army is ready to enter the city.
Zhang Su said to the frightened Yang Huai: "General Yang Huai, please also give an order, order your subordinates and my subordinates to surround Deng Xian's "Dongzhou soldiers", collect their weapons, and kill the stubborn!" β
Yang Huai has surrendered and is controlled by others, how dare he have any objections? Comply immediately.
Zhang Song also gave the order, "Open the city gate, welcome the central army into the city, and surround the camp of the Dongzhou soldiers." β
The city gate opened, the 11th cavalry division and special operations division of the Central Army poured into the city, and Zhang Su and Yang Huai's troops surrounded Deng Xian's camp together with the troops of the Central Army.
The size of the city was not small, and each of the three armies had a camp and occupied three corners of the city.
The Dongzhou soldiers didn't know what was happening, but they were surrounded by the Yizhou army and the central army, there were 40,000 or 50,000 people, and even the roofs were full of people.
Under the leadership of the deputy general, the Dongzhou soldiers also tense up and confronted them nervously out of self-defense.
Ma Chao, Zhang Song, Zhang Su, and Yang Huai came to the outside of the barracks together, and Zhang Su stepped forward and shouted loudly, "Listen up, the soldiers inside, I am Zhang Su, the Taishou of Guanghan County, and General Yang Huai and I have decided to surrender to Lord Lu Bu and the imperial court." β
"Deng Xian is stubborn, he has been beheaded!" As he spoke, someone picked up Deng Xian's head with a spear.
"If you put down your arms quickly, raise your hands and surrender to the camp, you can still save your life, and those who resist will only die! I'll give you a stick of incense, think about it! β
When he heard that Deng Xian was dead, and saw the hanging head, the loyal deputy general rushed out of the camp gate with his sword and killed Zhang Su.
However, at the moment when he rushed out of the camp gate, a crisp shot rang out, and the sniper shot him in the head!
Immediately afterwards, three more Dongzhou soldiers rushed out of the camp gate, raised their knives and killed Zhang Su, and they were greeted by three crisp gunshots, all of which were headshots!
This time, the audience immediately quieted down, not only the Dongzhou soldiers, but also Zhang Su and Yang Huai's troops had never seen a flintlock pistol, and when they saw that the fire-like weapon in the hands of the Central Army was so powerful, they were glad that they were not their enemies.
In this way, no one came out to send him to death, Deng Xian was dead, the camp was surrounded by an army of 50,000 or 60,000 people, and there was such a miraculous firearm, how could anyone not think of sending him to death?
Before the incense was extinguished, groups of Dongzhou soldiers began to throw their weapons outside the camp gate and come out with their hands raised to surrender.
Someone took the lead, and the next thing was much easier, and all 10,000 Dongzhou soldiers surrendered.
Zhang Song exerted his three-inch incorruptible tongue, coupled with the assistance of Ma Chao, and sure enough, he took over the city without danger, and all the 30,000 defenders in the city surrendered.
After the large army of the Central Army took over the city defense, the surrendered Yizhou Army was treated differently.
Zhang Su's subordinates, like Zhang Ren and Huang Quan's subordinates, kept their weapons and temporarily formed an army, waiting for future reorganization.
Yang Huai's army and Dongzhou soldiers were disarmed, imprisoned, and dealt with after the war was over.
After the city was pacified, LΓΌ Bu led a large army into the city, and he made Zhang Su's Taishou Mansion as a temporary headquarters.
He met with Zhang Su and Yang Huai, praised Zhang Su's general actions, and promised to use it again after recovering Yizhou.
As for Yang Huai, it is a kind word to appease him, so that he can make meritorious contributions.
Zhang Su took the initiative to propose to Lu Bu that he was willing to write a letter in his own hand, and sent people to recruit the guards and troops of An Baishui, Jiameng, Zitong, Jiange, Jiangyou, Pingwu, Wenxian and other places, and he would definitely be able to do it all.
Of course, Lu Bu liked this kind of ending that the army and land could be subdued without blood, and readily agreed.
Zhuge Liang inquired about the current situation in Chengdu, Zhang Su was very close after all, and he knew the recent situation in Chengdu very well, and he would explain it to everyone.
