"Although Liang is despicable, he does not want to be in the company of beasts." Ma Liang refused Zhuge Liang's retention, left the barracks with his younger brother Ma Yan, and parted ways with Liu Bei. At the beginning, Ma Liang would vote for Liu Bei, completely for the sake of Zhuge Liang's face, and Ma Liang did not have much loyalty to Liu Bei.

is just a courtier, Ma Liang has to keep the duty of a courtier, eat the king's money, and worry about the king. But no matter who they are, they have their own bottom line, and the slaughter of the city exceeds the bottom line that Ma Liang can tolerate. In order to persuade Liu Bei to retract his life, Ma Liang knelt in front of Liu Bei's camp despite his illness until Zhang Fei returned to the camp, Liu Bei's refusal completely chilled Ma Liang's heart. What does such a tyrant mean to protect him?

Ma Liang left, and returned to Jingzhou's Ma family with his younger brother Ma Tan, as for Liu Bei's battle with the imperial court, Ma Liang didn't want to get involved anymore. Rejecting Zhuge Liang's retention, and disdainful of the gifts sent by Liu Bei, the brothers each rode a thin horse and left the barracks.

When he learned that the Ma Liang brothers were really gone, Liu Bei was really a little anxious. In fact, in the second half of last night, Liu Bei had the heart to inform Zhang Fei to give up the slaughter of the city, but Ma Liang's approach made him unable to find a suitable step, and after dawn, the things that should not be done have been done, but the things that should be done have not been done.

"Strategist, Ji Chang is gone?" Liu Bei asked Zhuge Liang in disbelief.

Seeing Liu Bei's dejected expression, Zhuge Liang couldn't bear to blame Liu Bei for not listening to persuasion, so he opened his mouth and said with relief: "Lord, don't worry about Ji Chang's affairs, he left at this time out of righteous indignation, give him a period of time, there is still room for turnaround, and now we should consider how to withdraw the army." ”

Even without Zhuge Liang's reminder, Liu Bei knew that he couldn't stay in Bashu, and those who were still neutral would probably not hesitate to stand on the side of the court after knowing that they had ordered the slaughter of the city.

Impulsiveness is the devil! When people get angry, they are prone to impulsiveness, and impulsiveness may cause irreparable results. In the past, wherever Liu Bei went, some people praised Liu Bei's benevolence and righteousness, but after the slaughter of the city, I am afraid that the word benevolence and righteousness will no longer have anything to do with him.

But Liu Bei doesn't regret it! He wasn't really a good gentleman, and it didn't seem unexpected to learn of Guan Yu's death and make crazy moves in sadness. It can only be said that the people of Chengdu were unlucky, and they encountered Liu Bei's own anger.

When he saw Zhang Fei standing in front of him covered in blood, Liu Bei realized that his previous decision was probably a mistake. In order to vent his own personal anger, the price to pay seems to be too great.

"Strategist, do you have a plan to withdraw your troops?"

"Liang came up with a rough idea last night, please take a look at it, lord, please see ......" Zhuge Liang said and asked Liu Bei to come to the map, and explained in detail the route that Liu Bei's army needed to prepare for the withdrawal of the army.

Regarding Zhuge Liang's idea of not returning the same way, Liu Bei agreed. If it weren't for last night's massacre, Liu Bei might have been hot-headed and waved his army to find the imperial army desperately. But after a night of killing last night, Liu Bei's mind was a little calmer, and he knew that going to fight the court at this time would be tantamount to hitting a stone with an egg.

Don't look at the previous solution to a Han'an army, but for today's Han army, it is not necessarily a broken muscle, just look at the Han army can quickly rebuild the Han'an army, you can imagine that the court is now strong and strong. Even if it may be slightly inferior in combat power, it will definitely not be a ragtag army used to make up the numbers temporarily.

The Han'an army was not far from Chengdu, Liu Bei in order to evacuate as soon as possible, even the matter of counting the war profits was exempted, and after discussing a result with Zhuge Liang, he immediately ordered Zhang Fei to be the striker, set off first, and he led the main force to follow. On the morning of the second day after Liu Beijun left, the Han'an army, which had arrived in a hurry with the news, also arrived in Chengdu. Looking at the tragic situation of the corpses everywhere in Chengdu City, Zhao Yun and Sima Yi were stunned.

Especially for Zhao Yun, the impact was even greater. Unlike Sima Yi, Sima Yi only heard of Liu Bei's name but did not see him, but Zhao Yun had a relationship with Liu Bei. And even after voting for Liu Xie, Zhao Yun still has a good impression of Liu Bei, thinking that he is a loyal elder with unparalleled benevolence and righteousness.

But the tragic situation in Chengdu at this time was caused by the benevolent people that Zhao Yun thought. This was too exciting for Zhao Yun, thinking about his impression of Liu Bei back then, Zhao Yun couldn't help but feel a kind of anger at being deceived.

"Zilong, you will lead the army to camp outside the city." Sima Yi opened his mouth and said to Zhao Yun.

"What about you?" Zhao Yun asked rhetorically.

"I'll take people into the city to see if I can find the surviving officials and find out what happened on the night of the massacre."

“…… Then be careful yourself. ”

"Hmm." Sima Yi nodded, and ordered the guards around him to change into civilian clothes and enter the city with him. At this time, the people of Chengdu who were still alive in the city were like frightened birds, and Sima Yi ordered people to change into civilian clothes, and finally hid again without asking anyone.

The more you go to the city, the more dead bodies lie on the side of the road, and there are even many women who have no strands of blood lying in pools.

"These brutes!" Deng Zhan, who was in charge of protecting Sima Yi's safety, couldn't help but curse when he saw a child lying next to a young couple crying. Since the incident of Li Ru's assassination, Liu Xie has attached great importance to the personal safety of Sima Yi, Pang Tong, and Jia Xu, and masters like Shi A, Zhu Dao, and Deng Zhan, who are good at assassination, have become the personal bodyguards of Sima Yi and others.

Sima Yi did not stop Deng Zhan's abuse, because he thought so in his heart. Familiar with military books and proficient in strategy, he naturally knew that slaughtering the city was the only way to boost morale. It was only when he saw the word slaughter in the book, but it was not until he was there that Sima Yi realized the brutality of slaughtering the city.

It's not something that people can do at all!

Originally, Sima Yi didn't think that Liu Bei was so great, in Sima Yi's heart, if there was no Guan Yu and Zhang Fei, Liu Bei would not be alive today. But after seeing it with his own eyes today, Sima Yi finally realized that Liu Bei was not simple, at least his heart was tough, otherwise he would not have given such an order to destroy human nature.

The city was in shambles, and Sima Yi and his party finally arrived at the center of the city. In the past, Liu Yan was named the king of Shu, and he built his own palace of the king of Shu in Chengdu, and later the court took back the title of the king of Shu, and returned Bashu to the rule of the imperial court, and the palace of the king of Shu was rebuilt into an official office.

At this time, the dead bodies lying in pools of blood could be seen everywhere in the official office, and the strong smell of blood filled the air, which was disgusting. Sima Yi tried hard to suppress the feeling of wanting to vomit, and instructed everyone: "Go in separately and look for it, see if there are any lucky ones who haven't died?" ”

Deng Zhan and a few people stayed behind to protect Sima Yi, while the rest of the people began to search for survivors in the pile of dead people in groups. What disappointed Sima Yi was that no survivors were found, and the corpses everywhere could not be found, but there was no one who survived by luck.

"My lord, maybe some people escaped from the city when it was broken, so it is better to have someone notify General Zhao outside the city and ask him to send someone to look for him outside the city."

"Well, that's all there is to it." Sima Yi couldn't think of a better way for a while, so he nodded in agreement.

There were dead people everywhere, Sima Yi didn't want to stay here for a moment, and after the search was over, Sima Yi took Deng Zhan and others to start patrolling the city. Along the way, seeing those sporadic survivors crying bitterly on the side of the road about the departure of their loved ones, Sima Yi felt a sense of self-blame in his heart, if he could have led the army to arrive a day earlier, maybe Chengdu would not have experienced the tragedy of the massacre.

……

"What? Don't go after Liu Beijun? When Zhao Yun heard Sima Yi's proposal, he couldn't help but be shocked and angry. Seeing this, Sima Yi explained: "Zilong, the top priority at the moment is not to find Liu Bei to avenge the people who died in vain in Chengdu, but to rescue the people who are still being fished by the Nanban as soon as possible. ”

“…… Those southern barbarians haven't left yet? Zhao Yun asked with some surprise. At the beginning, Liu Bei led the army to attack Shu, in order to make Shu unable to take care of each other, Liu Bei sent people to the Southern Barbarian King Meng to be promised a heavy amount of money and invited him to enter Bashu together. Meng was ambitious and always wanted to build a country that belonged to the Southern Barbarians. At the moment, Liu Bei extended an olive branch to him, and Meng Shu naturally reached out and grabbed it without hesitation.

The living environment of the Southern Barbarians is harsh, and those born in the poor mountains and bad waters are generally relatively strong and brave and ruthless. At the same time that Liu Bei led the army to break the Han An army and capture Huang Zhong alive, Meng Shu also led the southern barbarians of the Nine Caves and Eighteen Villages to erect a counter-flag and attack Yinan. Burning, killing and looting along the way, and doing bad things.

As soon as Chengdu is broken, the impact on the people of Bashu is huge, and now Liu Bei, the scourge, has taken the initiative to retreat, and if the remaining scourge Meng Shu does not hurry up to solve it, it will only make the people of Bashu continue to live in dire straits.

After listening to Sima Yi's explanation, Zhao Yun agreed to Sima Yi's proposal. Even if Liu Bei, who was eager to be eaten alive at this time, he had to go and drive Meng Huo and those southern barbarians back to their hometown first, so as to save them from continuing to plague the Han people.

The generals agreed, and the two jointly drafted a letter explaining in detail why they did not pursue Liu Beijun, and then waved their army south to drive away the southern barbarians.

Meng Huozhi is very talented, so he can't rely on the courage of a horseman, and Bashu was busy dealing with Liu Bei before, so he didn't bother to deal with him, which made him break through several county towns and lay down a few territories. But as soon as the Han Anjun arrived, Meng Shu's good days would come to an end. In terms of martial arts, he can't do Zhao Yun, who has nowhere to vent his anger, and in terms of strategy, he doesn't even have the qualifications to lift shoes for Sima Yi.

In the romance, Zhuge Liang captured Meng Huo seven times in order to gain the hearts of the Southern Barbarians, but now Meng Huo does not have that good treatment. Having just witnessed the tragedy of Chengdu being slaughtered, the Han An army is holding their breath and looking for an opportunity to vent. The Southern Barbarians of Meng Shu were unfortunate and became the punching bag of the Han Army at this time.

There was no persuasion, let alone capture, Meng won seven battles and seven defeats, and it was completely his own good luck that he was able to survive until now. Busy with long teeth, gold rings and three knots...... Those who were regarded as generals by Meng Huo on weekdays were all cut off by the Han army one by one at this time and hung on the city to watch the scenery.

At this time, less than thirty percent of the barbarian soldiers were left, and even after suffering such huge losses, the Han'an army still had no intention of letting them go. The territory occupied by them before has been recaptured by the Han people, and now the Han people have pursued and killed their own territory of the southern barbarians.

It stands to reason that Meng Shu and others can rely on their geographical advantages to deal with the Han army, but Sima Yi has taken advantage of the Han barbarian family policy advocated by Liu Xie in recent years, and constantly won over and divided Meng Huo's allies. There are too many good things that the Han people can come up with to tempt the Southern Barbarians, first the King of Duosi, who is good at illusion, followed by the King of Mulu, who is good at taming beasts, these two people did not withstand the sugar-coated shells of the Han people, and they announced that they had drawn a line with Meng Huo. And although Meng Shu was annoyed by the "betrayal" of these two, the Han army had been following behind his ass, and he had no time to find the trouble of the two, so he had to pin his hope on his friend, the vulture bone of the lord of the Ugo country. The vulture bone is two feet long, and he is good at using the mace, especially what Meng is valued by Meng is that there is a vine armor army of 3,000 people under the vulture bone. All of these soldiers wore rattan armor, which was extremely tough and invulnerable, but due to its low production, it could not be produced in a structured manner. But as a surprise soldier, it is enough to do it.

The only weakness of the rattan armor army is fire, because it is obtained by soaking the secret oil many times with the old vine, so although this rattan armor is not afraid of sword slashing, it can not touch the slightest spark, once it is lit, it can provide a humanoid torch for people to watch for free.

Meng Shu didn't know the weakness of the Fujijia Army, Nanban was still in an uncivilized area at this time, with many shrubs and dense forests, and the climate was humid, so it was easy to ignite a fire, and not many people knew about this weakness of the Fujijia Army except for a few people in Ugo who knew it. And Meng Shu is like a gambler who has lost his red eyes at this time, and the vine armor army of the vulture bone is the last bargaining chip that can make him turn the tables in his eyes, don't look at the seven battles and seven defeats, Meng Shu still has not been destroyed The will to resist.

The vulture bone was simple-minded, and he was fooled by Meng Shu with a few words, and personally brought his three thousand vine armor troops to help Meng Shu fight.

The two armies confronted each other, and the vulture bone rushed out to fight first, and directly named Zhao Yun in the Han army. Zhao Yun saw that the barbarians who wanted to challenge him were different, after all, the height of the vulture bone made him stand out among the barbarians, and he could attract the attention of others at a glance.

"You are Zhao Yun?" The vulture looked at Zhao Yun who stepped forward and asked.

"It's Ben. Who are you? Reporting the name and surname, the general will not pick the unknown person under the gun. ”

"My name is Vulture Bone, Meng Shu is my friend, you bully my friend, and I don't agree." The vultures said and forcefully slammed the mace in their hand to the ground.

"Humph! He is just to blame himself, to eat the consequences, you don't distinguish between right and wrong, and he is simple-minded......"

Before Zhao Yun finished speaking, the vulture bone couldn't listen anymore. He hated others for calling him stupid the most in his life, and Zhao Yun inadvertently violated his taboo. Seeing that the vulture bone raised his mace and smashed it at him, Zhao Yun stopped talking nonsense and raised the gun in his hand to greet him.

The vulture bone was able to become the lord of the Ugo country, it was entirely because of his personal bravery, no one in the Ugo country could beat him, he was the first warrior of the Ugo country. But this first warrior is only in the country of Ugo. The vulture bone is like a toad sitting at the bottom of a well watching the sky, where does he know that there are people outside the world and there is heaven outside the sky.

Zhao Yun studied under Tong Yuan, and his own qualifications are even more outstanding, not only learned Tong Yuan's Hundred Birds and Phoenixes marksmanship, but also created his own snake seven probe marksmanship. If you want to clean up a vulture bone that only knows how to rely on brute strength, don't be too simple. The vulture bone is infinitely powerful, but Zhao Yun knows how to use force to fight, and the vulture bone has great power, but he asked Zhao Yun to use it against him, not to mention how uncomfortable it feels.

"Shameless Han people, don't hide if you use seeds!" The vultures were so angry that they screamed.

"Hmph, it's simple-minded, no wonder Meng was called to use it and didn't know it. Since you want to see the general's marksmanship, then the general will meet your requirements, look at the gun! ”

The snake probed seven times, there were six more blood holes on the vulture bone, and the last shot Zhao Yun did not fall on the vulture bone's body, but stabbed the mace in the vulture bone's hand. As the lord of the Ugo country, the mace in his hand was naturally made of fine iron, but it was such a mace made of fine iron, which made Zhao Yun stab a hole with the gun in his hand.

The vulture bone looked out from the hole in the mace with wide eyes, and when he saw Zhao Yun sitting on the horse, he couldn't help but feel a sense of surrender in his heart. It's terrible, he is the first warrior of the Ugo country, but in front of this Han people, he seems to be a child who wants to compete with the giants.

"Zhao Yun, don't be complacent, although you defeated me, my rattan armor saber is invulnerable, and your Han army can't try to defeat them."

"Hmph, I'm not ashamed. Since you have faith in your rattan armor army, go back and bring it out so that Ben will see it. Zhao Yun snorted coldly.

Zhao Yun originally thought that the vulture bone was bragging, but when he really saw that the arrow was bounced off by the rattan armor worn by the vine armor army, he couldn't help but believe it.

In order to avoid unnecessary losses, Zhao Yun chose to avoid the edge for the time being, and while sticking to the camp, he also ordered someone to quickly report to Sima Yi, who was in the rear team to appease Duosi and Mulu, hoping that Sima Yi could find a way to crack the vine armor army as soon as possible.

“…… Mulu, Duosi, have you ever heard of the Vine Armor Army? Sima Yi believes in Zhao Yun's character, and knows that Zhao Yun will not be untrustworthy, since Zhao Yun said it, then this rattan armor army is probably really invulnerable. Sima Yi didn't know anything about the Fujijia Army like Zhao Yun, but Sima Yi had two local barbarians around him, Mulu and Duosi, and it was estimated that the two of them knew about the Fujijia Army.

Sure enough, as Sima Yi expected, hearing Sima Yi's inquiry, Duo Si nodded and said: "I know, the vine armor army is an elite army under the vulture bone, the lord of the Ugo country, the number is about three thousand, each person has a pair of rattan armor, and is accustomed to using sharp blades and steel forks as weapons. ”

"It is said that the rattan armor saber is invulnerable?"

"It is true." Duo Si and Mu Lu nodded in unison.
