As soon as this incident happened, the Shu soldiers in Chengdu City lost their temper completely. If they complained that the Dongzhou soldiers did not make any efforts, and all these people took refuge in the enemy outside, wouldn't it increase the enemy's strength?

As soon as he got the news, Liu Zhang called Zhang Ren to the mansion and scolded him.

Many people can't understand why those Dongzhou soldiers from Nanyang chose to surrender directly to Jin Jue's army as soon as they left the city, you know, before, when they were under the new capital, even those Dongzhou soldiers from Sanfu or Liangzhou did not choose to surrender immediately, but Jin Jue's army and Lu Bu broke into Zhang Ren's camp at the same time, and they surrendered.

That's a lot of the difference.

But Zhang Ren and Liu Zhang didn't know that the Shu soldiers had grievances in their hearts, but how could the Dongzhou soldiers have no grievances in their hearts?

It's just that they are not trusted, Liu Zhang separated the Dongzhou soldiers according to their origins, and they can understand. However, when they knew that Jin Jue's army actually besieged a huge Chengdu city in such a way, and Liu Zhang and his subordinates actually endured it like this, which made the entire Dongzhou soldiers extremely disappointed.

Everyone in Yizhou knows that Liu Zhang was afraid that the people of Yizhou would rebel against him, so he collected two-thirds of Yizhou's fields into the city of Chengdu, so it is not a secret that the grain reserves in Chengdu are enough for the people in the city to eat for three years.

However, as soon as the war began, Liu Zhangjun's army behaved so negatively, and the generals of the Dongzhou soldiers who had experienced many wars understood one thing, once their side was so negative at the beginning of the war, morale would soon disappear. Once Jin Jue's army has besieged Chengdu City for a long time, it will not necessarily be the besieging side if it loses its morale.

Liu Zhang's army had a relative advantage in strength, but at the beginning of the war, he didn't dare to engage in a field battle with Jin Jue's army, so when the siege was broken in the future, where would the soldiers in the city still have the spirit to fight desperately?

As for the reinforcements, although Liu Zhang left all the Shu soldiers who returned to Shu County with Zhang Ren and Huang Quan in Niuluo County, he could not prevent the news of Liu Zhang's army's defeat in Ba County from being spread by people with good intentions. Among the other counties in Yizhou, those who have the ability to shoot troops to rescue Chengdu City include Pang Xi of Guling County, Taishou of Ba County, Wu Yi of Guanghan County, and Yan Yan, the guard of Dajian Pass.

As for the key county and the four counties of Nanzhong, the only one who could send troops to rescue was the southernmost Yizhou County, which was too shou Donghe.

However, in that place of Yizhou County, there were more barbarians than Han people, and Dong He must have left a certain amount of troops to prevent the barbarians from taking the opportunity to rebel, so the troops he could send to rescue Chengdu City were very limited.

And the bad news came one after another, making the generals in the city who knew the situation almost desperate.

Sanba became a mess of porridge, on the surface, the only one who had the spare strength to send troops to rescue Chengdu City, Yongning County Taishou Zhao Wei, he did not join the enemy outside the city to attack Chengdu City, for Liu Zhang, it was already thankful. Wu Yi was defeated, and judging from all indications, he had lost most of Guanghan County, even if Yan Yan, the defender of Dajian Pass, led his troops to launch a counterattack.

However, is Yan Yan, who was seriously injured, capable of breaking through the three lines of defense guarded by Jin Jue's army, namely Fu County, Jinzhu Pass and Luo County?

Although Jin Jue's army seemed very easy when he took these three places, all the generals who had been stationed in these three places knew that these three places were easy to defend and difficult to attack, and if they did not have enough troops, they would not be able to break through the Guancheng that had been prepared for defense by the defenders in advance in a short period of time.

And after leaving the city, the general who quickly led the troops to surrender to Jin Jue's army was named Cai Yan, who was a smart person who knew the situation outside the city very well.

"Childe, don't you see him?" Liu Thirty-one asked strangely.

After the general surrendered, he wanted to see the master of the Jin Jue army with his own eyes. After Liu Thirty-one learned about it, he immediately reported the news to Jin Jue in person.

Unexpectedly, Jin Jue, who has always shown a thirst for talent, this time, as soon as he heard his words, he waved his hand and said that he didn't want to see him.

"Why do you have to see him? 31. You must know that to such a person, you can use it, but you can't use it greatly. Knowing the current affairs is of course a good thing. However, he himself said that in the Dongzhou soldiers, he is not a petty officer such as a military candidate, but a middle-level officer at the rank of lieutenant. Since then, on weekdays, he must be under Liu Zhang's trust.

Add to that his rank and age, and he must have had a family in the city. However, if you look at him, he will surrender directly to our army as soon as he seizes the opportunity. If such a person is a cronie for you, do you dare to keep him by your side and use him as a confidant? Jin Jue glanced at Liu Thirty-one, shook his head, and patiently explained.

After listening to Jin Jue's words, Liu Thirty-one couldn't help but shiver all over his body, and at this time, he suddenly thought of this.

In fact, Liu Thirty-one didn't know that there was another reason why Jin Jue refused to see this Cai Yan.

Nanyang nationality, surnamed Cai, when I think of these two conditions, what will people from the Three Kingdoms era, or traversers, think?

Liu Biao's wife, Cai's family, his generals Cai Mao, Cai Zhong Cai He, etc., in Jingzhou under Liu Biao's rule, the Cai family is one of the four major families in Jingzhou, and its power can be seen.

And Cai Yan did not stay in Jingzhou, but became the general of the Dongzhou soldiers under Liu Zhang.

There must be something strange in it!

In this regard, Jin Jue does not seem to be investigating the other party's roots. However, during the Three Kingdoms period, the Cai family in Jingzhou did not have a good reputation. This is a very important reason why Jin Jue is reluctant to see Cai Yan.

No wonder, the other generals in Jin Jue's army, especially Lu Bu and Cheng Lian, didn't have too natural faces when they knew about this. It is of course a good thing that Liu Zhangjun has generals who lead the crowd to surrender on their own initiative, but for the general army, how to accept these people has become a big problem.

"Thirty-one, you go back and tell Cai Yan that I will give him and his soldiers two choices.

The first choice is to take the troops to Shangyong and wait, once Fu Tong is really able to replace Zhang Xiu and become the Taishou of Nanyang County, he can return to his hometown.

The second choice is to go to Li Hui's account to listen to the order, and honestly become a Tuntian lieutenant first.

After this errand is done, I will adjust his official position.

By the way, you also have to explain to him that he can choose not to tell his soldiers about the two choices that Ben Gongzi gave him. After all, some soldiers will still be homesick and want to go back to Nanyang County. Regarding this choice, Ben Gongzi will not force him, let him must inform his subordinates! Jin Jue instructed thoughtfully.
