Chapter 20: Yizhou Pastoral (2-in-1 Chapter)

When the first rays of sunlight in the morning shone on the walls of Nan Chen, it was already close to midday.

However, at this time, almost all the officials in Nanzheng City had already arrived, and everyone had received the news that Ma Chao had surrendered!

Zhang Lutie blushed and sat in the middle, and Zhang Wei, Yan Pu and the others below were silent.

Ma Chao's rebellion was still a big blow to Zhang Lu, not only because of the loss of Ma Chao and Ma Dai, but more importantly, his 20,000 troops also defected to Liu Bei with Ma Chao!

Since the Yellow Turban Rebellion, Hanzhong has not been damaged too much, so the population of several counties in Hanzhong is very large, otherwise it would be impossible to suppress Xichuan for many years. However, no matter how many soldiers there are, they can't be given away in vain, and Liu Bei's 20,000 troops are given for nothing at a time, even if Zhang Lu, who is wealthy, can't stand it!

At this time, Zhang Lu also understood a little that he probably fell for Liu Bei's divisive plan, but for the sake of face, Zhang Lu did not admit that he had been tricked.

"Big brother, I have already arrested Ma Chao's family, and Ma Chao's general Pang De is also controlled by me!" Zhang Lu's younger brother Zhang Wei spoke.

"Lord, what else to catch, just kill it directly!" Next to him, Zhang Xiu suggested.

Zhang Lu nodded, but did not say anything, in fact, Ma Chao was forced to rebel by himself, if he hadn't listened to Yang Song's slander, Ma Chao would not have rebelled! Therefore, Zhang Lu still felt very guilty about Ma Chao in his heart. Now if he kills Ma Chao's wife and children again, Zhang Lu will not be able to go.

Zhang Lu is not a ruthless person, as the leader of the Five Dou Mi Sect, Zhang Lu usually cares more about his Five Dou Mi Sect. At least in terms of what Zhang Lu is doing so far, Zhang Lu is not a material that competes for world domination.

"Report!" The little colonel walked in from the outside, knelt down and bowed: "Back to the lord, Ma Chao sent someone to send a letter!" ”

"Ma Chao? Hum! Present! Zhang Lu said. The Colonel immediately sent the letter.

Zhang Lu opened the letter, read it, sighed, and then handed the letter to Yan Pu, who frowned after reading it, and said: "Kong Ming's poisonous scheme!" ”

Then, Yan Pu passed the letter to everyone to read, and when it reached Yang Song's hand, Yang Song's face instantly froze.

The letter said that he would exchange Ma Chao's brothers' family and Pang De for Yang Bai!

I didn't expect Yang Bai to be alive! A new hope rose in Yang Song's heart.

Yan Pu stood up: "Lord, I didn't expect Zhuge Kongming to use this poisonous trick!" If we don't change it, I'm afraid that the officers and men of the three armies will be cold, and the prestige of the lord will be lost! However, Pang De is a general in Liangzhou, if it is changed...... Hehe! ”

Yan Pu said this, and after a pause, everyone present understood what Yan Pu meant.

Pang De is a general in Liangzhou, and Yang Bai is just a guy who can't do anything, and the two are not comparable at all! So if Yang Bai is exchanged for Pang De, Zhang Lu will lose a lot!

Although Ma Chao betrayed and Pang De stayed in Hanzhong, he would not necessarily surrender to Zhang Lu, but if it was exchanged for Ma Chao, Pang De would definitely take refuge in Liu Bei, and Liu Bei would have another help at that time! You must know that Zhang Lu and Liu Bei are now hostile to each other, and giving Liu Bei a general for nothing is not what Zhang Lu and others are willing to see.

In fact, Ma Chao just wanted to exchange Yang Bai for his own family, and Pang De was added by Adou later. And Ma Chao couldn't even care about his own son, let alone Pound, so Ma Chao didn't think about Pound at all.

For Adou, a general like Pang De naturally has more and the better, so Ma Chao added Pang De's name.

Yan Pu's words made Yang Song's face blue and white for a while, Yan Pu meant that Yang Bai was not as good as Pang De, although Yang Song knew that this was also the truth, but his face was still a little unhappy.

At this time, Yan Pu spoke again: "Lord, I think the lord must be changed now, if we don't change, we can't explain to the soldiers of the three armies, but the lord can only give him Ma Chao's family, as for General Pound, you must not exchange with him!" ”

Zhang Lu nodded, Pang De is a fierce general in Xiliang, if he is asked to give Pang De away, then he is indeed very reluctant in his heart.

At this time, Yang Song interjected from the side and asked: "Without Pound, what if Ma Chao refuses to change?" ”

"Don't worry, Lord Yang, I expect that Ma Chao will definitely change!" Yan Pu spoke.

Yang Song glanced at Yan Pu and reassured me, that is my own brother, how can I rest assured! If Ma Chao kills Yang Bai, I'm afraid you Yan Pu won't be distressed.

……

Although he did not exchange for Pang De, Adou was already very satisfied, after all, he had already exchanged for Ma Chao's family and had reached his initial goal.

And Ma Chao and Ma Dai exchanged their wives and children, and they were grateful to Adou. Ma Chao also personally brought his family to thank Adou.

But at this time, Adou was grounded!

stole Zhuge Liang's gold medal order arrow, and followed Li Hui to the Ma Chaoda camp privately, which made Liu Bei angry, so he scolded Adou and was grounded for three months!

However, only a dozen days later, Adou was released, because Liu Bei was going to attack Chengdu in a big way!

Jiameng Pass is known as the first pass in Shuzhong, Liu Zhang can be said to have invested enough money in Jiameng Pass, so all along, Liu Bei has always thought that Jiameng Pass is very safe, but since putting Adou here, Jiameng Pass has been attacked twice in two years, and now Liu Bei still dares to put Adou in Jiameng Pass.

So this time Liu Bei's army went south, and by the way, he also took Adou, and Liu Bei placed Adou in Luocheng.

Now Liu Bei's army is in Luocheng, such as Liu Bei's generals, who are also in Luocheng, and the surrounding areas of Luocheng have also been taken by Liu Bei, so the safety factor of Luocheng is definitely higher than that of Jiamengguan.

Then, Liu Bei immediately sent troops to Chengdu.

When the Mianzhu guard saw Liu Bei's army, he directly opened the city and surrendered, while Liu Bei took advantage of the situation to kill the city of Chengdu.

At this time, the city of Chengdu was already in chaos, and at this time, except for Xu Jing, Liu Ba, Huang Quan, Qin Mi and several other ministers who were very loyal to Liu Zhang, everyone else did not know where to go. What is surprising is that Zhang Song is still by Liu Zhang's side.

Liu Zhang looked at the empty hall, and now there were only a few people. Liu Zhang sighed helplessly: "Everyone, now Liu Bei's army has arrived at the city of Chengdu. Hey......"

Seeing Liu Zhang's decadent expression, the following people looked at each other, and Huang Quan immediately came out and said: "Lord, now I still have an army of 30,000 in Chengdu, dozens of generals, and I still have the strength to fight!" ”

At this time, Zhang Song also stood up and said: "Lord, Liu Bei was led to Sichuan by the minister, but I didn't expect Liu Bei to plot against me in Xichuan for a long time. The minister is willing to lead the soldiers in the city and fight to the death with Liu Bei! ”

Zhang Song's words were impassioned, and Xu Jing, Huang Quan and others next to him couldn't help but show a trace of respect in their eyes when they looked at Zhang Song.

"Lord, we can still fight, you can give the order!"

"Yes, my lord!"

Seeing that everyone below was so united, Liu Zhang sighed: "Princes, Liu Bei's subordinates Zhang Fei, Zhao Yun, Huang Zhong, and Wei Yan are all generals in the world, and now that Ma Chao has been surrendered, it is even more powerful!" You are all civil ministers, how can you resist the bravery of Liu Bei's generals! ”

Hearing this, everyone was silent, Liu Zhang was right, everyone is a literati, if they use their brains or mouths in this court, one of these people can top a hundred Zhang Fei, but if they go into battle to fight, they are not a Zhang Fei's opponent after a hundred.

Zhang Song peeked at everyone and found that everyone was silent, so he stood up again and knelt down in front of Liu Zhang: "Lord, although the minister is a scholar and has no power to restrain the chicken, he also knows what can be done!" The minister is willing to lead the soldiers and horses in the city and swear to live and die with Chengdu! After speaking, Zhang Song was already in tears.

Seeing Zhang Song like this, Liu Zhang sighed, and he couldn't imagine that in the end, the most loyal person was this Zhang Song Zhang Yongnian! Thinking of this, Liu Zhang took out the talisman, came to Zhang Song, and solemnly handed it to Zhang Song: "Yongnian!" This is my Chengdu City talisman, with this talisman, I can mobilize my Chengdu 30,000 troops! ”

Zhang Song took the talisman and kowtowed deeply at Liu Zhang: "Don't worry, even if the minister fights to a single soldier, he must protect the lord!" ”

……

Zhang Song got the talisman and immediately went to the barracks to transfer troops.

Thinking about his performance in the hall just now, Zhang Song admired his acting skills.

Now there are 30,000 troops in Chengdu City, grain and grass can be used for several years, if Liu Zhang makes up his mind to defend Chengdu, he can really defend it for a few years, and so Xu Jing, Liu Ba and others in the city are fighting with one force, maybe Liu Zhang will really resist to the end, rather than let Liu Zhang really decide to defend to the death, it is better to simply take the military power in the city in his own hands as soon as possible, and then open the city to surrender, and dedicate the Chengdu city and the 30,000 troops in the city to Liu Bei, which is another great achievement. Therefore, Zhang Songcai performed this experience very hard, and really won Liu Zhang's trust.

If it is said that leading troops to fight, the most suitable person in Chengdu City should be Huang Quan instead of Zhang Song, but at this time, Liu Zhang has been messed up by Liu Bei's army, and his heart is like a mess.

After Zhang Song grasped the military power in Chengdu, he was worried that there would be changes in the future, so he immediately opened the city gate to welcome Liu Bei's army into the city.

Chengdu City Gate.

Liu Bei walked closely and helped Zhang Song, who was kneeling on the ground, and said in an excited tone: "These days have been hard and eternal!" If you can capture Xichuan, Yongnian should remember the first merit! ”

Zhang Song hurriedly bowed his head and bowed, and finally said that he didn't dare to be, but he was very useful in his heart.

"Yongnian, don't be modest!" Zhuge Liang Ke came over and said: "Yongnian, if you hadn't responded in Chengdu at the beginning, where would the lord have gone so smoothly!" ”

The response in Zhuge Liang's mouth was the matter of the thousand old grains at that time.

At the beginning, Liu Bei lacked a reason to send troops to Chengdu, so Pang Tong sent a letter to Zhang Song and asked Zhang Song to maneuver from it, so when Liu Bei opened his mouth to ask for soldiers and food, Zhang Song first stood up and said that he would only give Yicheng, and then Zhang Song was afraid that this would not be too much, and then he found someone to pretend to be Yan Chun, the little shopkeeper of Yan Fengtang, and bribed Deng Xian to change the old grain, all he did was to find an excuse for Liu Bei to send troops! And Deng Xian accepted a bribe, even if it was time to know that there was something wrong with it, but he was afraid that his bribery would be exposed, so he didn't dare to investigate it, so he could only suffer a dumb loss.

I have to say that Liu Bei's means of buying people's hearts are not ordinary clever, he touted and praised Zhang Song, and in a blink of an eye, Zhang Song couldn't be divided into east, west, north and south.

……

Liu Zhang sat there decadently. At the previous moment, he was moved by Zhang Song to cry bitterly, but he didn't expect that after a while, the news of Zhang Song's surrender came, and Liu Zhang was directly dragged to hell.

Now that even the only 30,000 troops in the city are gone, Liu Zhang is really completely disappointed in his heart!

"If it really doesn't work, we can still break through to the south and retreat to Wuyang, Yongchang, Jianning and other counties in the south, if it still doesn't work, we can also borrow troops like the southern barbarians!" Liu Ba stood up and said.

"Hey, Zichu, the general trend is the trend, even if you retreat to Wuyang, it is not our Yizhou people who suffer in the end! That's it, the result is the same, why do you let the people suffer with me? Forget it......" Liu Zhang stood up, picked up Yizhou Mu's print from the table, and sighed softly.

In the winter of the nineteenth year of Jian'an, Liu Zhang surrendered to Liu Bei, and Liu Bei led Yizhou Mu by himself.

——————————————————————

I think you can also see that this chapter has the most words in the original two chapters. Gluttony just added sperm to everyone, and I didn't pay attention to the time, and it was even later, so I just posted it together. Regarding the essence, the gluttonous worm just found out that the group does not seem to be displayed outside, but everyone can still see the essence marked when you click in.

This is the end of the second volume, and the journey of the third volume will begin tomorrow. If the first two volumes are an introduction, the third volume is much more important. In the third volume, the protagonist will undergo a major transformation, and Adou will transform from a generation of heroes to a hero who competes for world domination, and at the same time will establish his own power. It can be said that the third volume is the path of the protagonist's growth and transformation. At the same time, Adou will use his bravery to build up his prestige in the army, paving the way for the fourth volume to seize power. Gluttony preliminarily expects that the third volume will be no less than 200,000 words, and some martial arts elements Gluttony will also be added to it in an appropriate amount. If you think that the first two volumes of Adou are too weak and depressed, then the third volume is worth everyone's expectations.

In fact, until now, the gluttonous worm has gradually found some feelings, thank you again for your support, the gluttonous worm only works hard to update more to repay everyone!

Finally, for tomorrow's third volume, let's give some recommendation and support!
