Later facts were as Pei Qian expected, Meng Shu led the army into the nest of Gao Ding, shocked to learn the news of Gao Ding's direct leadership of the army to Vietnam aid, but unexpectedly encountered Pei Qian's ambush on the way, Pei Qian and Huang Zhong's army of more than 50,000 people, set up a ten-sided ambush array, surrounded the Gao Ding army, Gao Ding led the army to break through repeatedly, and finally could not come out, and was later killed by Huang Zhong with an arrow, Gao Ding's several generals saw that the main general was about to die, and couldn't help but want to be broken, and hurriedly waved the army to surrender.

Pei Qian ordered people to gather and surrender troops, and then escorted them to Yueyun, but saw that Meng Shu also gained a lot, and he was tired of food, equipment, gold and silver, and there were not a few prisoners, although Meng Shu knew that if these materials and people were transported to his own tribe, they would definitely be able to greatly enhance their own strength, but he didn't dare to have such an idea at all, because he knew that with the power in his hands, he was not Pei Qian's opponent at all.

Although he was captured twice because he fell for the opponent's tricks, now he sees that the Gaoding army that is stronger than himself has been wiped out, which is enough to prove how powerful the opponent is. In addition, Pei Qianye's words before that he didn't mind the three captures of Meng Shu also made him frightened, at this time, he had long lost the arrogance he had before, and he had already been convinced by Pei Qian, and he didn't dare to resist in the slightest.

Therefore, almost without hesitation, Meng Shu gave all the food, equipment, and prisoners he obtained to Pei Qian, and offered to help Pei Qian attack Qianwei.

Pei Qian naturally nodded in agreement, and ordered Meng Huo to leave only 10,000 soldiers and horses in the army, and the rest of the soldiers to return to Panyue under the leadership of Meng Jiang, the general of Meng Huo's army.

After that, Pei Qian ordered Huang Zhong to enter Yuewei and take the opportunity to capture Yongchang. He divided his troops to attack Qianwei.

At that time, Qianwei Taishou Zhang Yi was leading his troops to attack Jiangyang County, and suddenly heard that Pei Qian's army had surrendered to Meng and beheaded Gaoding, and now he was attacking Qianwei, and hurriedly led the army to retreat, but unexpectedly encountered Pei Qian's ambush on the way, and the battle to the death was to escape, and after returning to Wuyang, he found that the army had lost more than 4,000 people.

Zhang Yi didn't dare to be careless, on the one hand, he was ready to stick to Qianwei, and on the other hand, he immediately sent people to Chengdu for help.

But Zhang Yi didn't know that Liu Zhang, who was in Chengdu at this time, couldn't care about Qianwei's affairs at all, because the gateway to Chengdu had been conquered by Liu Qi, the guard Zhang Ren was captured, Wu Yi and Liu Xun fled back to Chengdu, Deng Xian died in battle, and Li Yi, Pang Le, Fa Zheng, and Meng Da surrendered.

It turned out that after a few months of observation of Meng Da, Zhang Ren found that this person was not a traitor as others rumored, but led his troops to fight bloodily, and repelled the enemy troops who attacked the city many times.

But he didn't expect that one night, Meng Da suddenly led his troops to open the city gate, let Liu Qi's army enter the city, Zhang Ren was unguarded by Liu Qi's army poured in, deputy general Deng Xian led the army to resist, but was killed by Liu Qi's arrow, Li Yi and Pang Le were captured by Gan Ningsheng, and then surrendered under the persuasion of Meng Da and Fa Zheng.

In order to cover the retreat of the young master Liu Xun, Zhang Ren gave his horse to Liu Xun, but he was caught up by Liu Qi's army because he had no mount, and then was captured by Liu Qi in the process of fighting with Liu Qi.

Zhang Ren never thought that Liu Qi would have such skills, and his martial arts could be regarded as invincible in Sichuan, but he was easily defeated by Liu Qi and captured, and it was not until later that he knew that the Fang Tian painting halberd in this person's hand was actually left behind by Lu Bu, who was recognized as the first force in the world, and his unpredictable halberd method was actually improved on Lu Bu's famous skills. It was not unjust at all that I lost at his hands.

With the end of the war in Ruxian County, Zhang Ren was pushed into his previous county office, watching Liu Qi sit high in his previous seat, but he became a prisoner of the lower ranks, and the traitors Meng Da and Fa Zheng, who betrayed him and Ruoxian County, that is, betrayed the lord's foundation, also stood aside with a smile, and his heart was filled with inexplicable grief and indignation: "If it weren't for the betrayal of these two thieves, how could I have such an ending?" ”

At this moment, I heard Liu Qi's voice coming slowly: "Zhang Ren, you have been captured by this official now, if you don't surrender, when will you stay?" ”

Zhang Ren couldn't help but snort coldly, and laughed loudly: "How can a loyal minister be willing to do two things?" ”

Liu Qi sneered: "You can also be regarded as a loyal minister? ”

Zhang Ren was stunned for a moment, and then asked: "I tried my best to support the lord, and gave up my horses to protect the young lord, and I would rather die than surrender after being captured by you recently, how can I not be considered a loyal minister?" ”

But I heard Liu Qi say sharply: "Zhang Ren, you are a citizen of the Han Dynasty, you don't say that you are loyal to the Son of Heaven, but loyal to Liu Zhang, how can you be regarded as a loyal minister?" Liu Zhang is weak and suspicious, although Yizhou is the country of abundance, but first Jia Long rebelled, then Zhang Lu's rebellion, and recently Zhao Wei rebelled without power, I don't know how much the people of Li suffered from the war? If there is a big chaos today, the princes are divided, Liu Jiyu is a member of the Han family, seeing that the mountains and rivers are broken, and the people are in chaos, they don't know how to protect the country and protect the people, crusade against the national thieves, but try to secede and stand on their own, you are loyal to such incompetent, unkind and disloyal people, and you can be regarded as a loyal minister? ”

Zhang Ren sneered: "You don't have to say so much to me, let me ask you, your father and son have been in Jingzhou for more than ten years, relying on the strong generals under their command, conquering Jingzhou, Jiaozhou, Yangzhou, Xuzhou and other places, and now they are entering my Yizhou, don't you have some ambition?" ”

Liu Qi didn't get angry when he heard this, and said directly: "Don't ask me and have no ambition, just I respect the Son of Heaven and support the hearts of all the people, who among the princes in the world can match?" I was shocked to hear that Guan Yu led the troops into Xu, did not hesitate to break with the alliance, and ordered the army to go to the rescue, I knew that I could threaten the Son of Heaven like Cao Cao and order the princes, but there was no increase in the size of the army in the palace, although I did not get a large piece of land, but I issued an order to open overseas trade, communicate with each other, I prospered the school, the people were all benefited, the people under my rule were rich, the people lived and worked in peace and contentment, just like the peaceful and prosperous times, I am so loyal to the people, compared to your lord? ”

Zhang Ren was silent when he heard this, and only after a long time did he slowly say: "If you have a lotus today, I Zhang Ren will not descend, I will descend today, and I will not descend after a long time!" Kill me! ”

Liu Qi sneered, ordered someone to escort Zhang Ren down, and ordered the sergeant to take good care of him and not to slack off. He knew that there was only one way to persuade such a diehard loyalist, and that was to let his old master personally persuade him to surrender, so he was not in a hurry, so he waited for Liu Zhang to surrender in the future before persuading him to surrender.

As for whether Liu Zhang is willing to surrender, Liu Qi has absolute confidence, because he knows that Chengdu has now been cut off from aid and has become a lonely city, and the soldiers in the city are small and outnumbered, and it is not possible to fight at all, as long as his army comes to the city of Chengdu, Liu Zhang has only one way to surrender.

Liu Qi's expectation was not wrong, although Liu Zhang was still sitting peacefully on the main seat of the Yizhou Thorn History Mansion at this time, but the whole person had long lost his previous vigor, although he was only in his thirties, but several deep wrinkles had appeared on his smooth and shiny forehead before, and the gray hair on the top had proved that he had now fallen into deep worry.

At this time, Liu Zhang's face was no longer angry, he sighed deeply, and said in a low voice: "Now that the seventy or eighty thousand allied forces of Gaoding and Meng Wei have been defeated, Meng Shu has surrendered, and Gao Ding has been killed Liu Qi's army has occupied Yue, and it also ambushed Zhang Yi on the way to attack Qianwei. In addition, Ruoxian County was also conquered a few days ago, Zhang Ren was captured, Deng Xian was killed, Meng Da, Fa Zheng, Li Yi, Pang Le four generals surrendered to the enemy, Wu Yi and Xun'er fled back, but only brought back 800 soldiers, the rest were either killed, or surrendered, presumably Liu Qi's army will attack Chengdu in a few days, Zhugong, but there is a strategy to break the enemy? ”

As soon as Liu Zhang's words came out, all the civil and military generals couldn't help but be silent, even the resourceful Huang Quan was silent, because according to the current form, even if Sun Wu does not die and Wu Qi is reborn, I am afraid that he will not have the power to return to heaven, let alone himself?

Liu Zhang saw that everyone was silent, his heart couldn't help sinking, and he lamented: "I, Liu Zhang, govern Yizhou with a benevolent heart, although I don't have any great merit, but I am also lightly endowed, and the people in Shu have no worries about food and clothing, why is there such an ending?" ”

Huang Quan, Dong He and others under the tent all burst into tears when they heard Liu Zhang's words, but they didn't have the power to return to heaven, so they had to be silent.

At this moment, Zhang Song slowly stepped forward and sighed softly: "Lord, it is better to surrender the city now, so that the lord will not lose his title, if he resists, I am afraid that the lord will not only be difficult to protect the clan, but even the people in the city will suffer from the fire for no reason." ”

Liu Zhang nodded lightly, and said to the generals under his command: "Do you have any other opinions?" ”

All the civil and military forces were silent, even loyal ministers such as Huang Quan and Dong He stopped talking much, although they knew that Zhang Song betrayed the lord to seek glory, but in today's form, what way out can there be if he does not surrender? Now that even the lord Liu Zhang has decided to surrender, what other opinions can they have?

Liu Zhang sighed again, and secretly thought: "At the beginning, I regretted not listening to Wang Lei's words, and let Zhang Song and other traitors seek glory negotiate peace with Liu Qi, otherwise, Ruo County would not be unable to keep it, but it is a pity that now I have so many civil and military ministers, and none of them are as loyal as Wang Lei." ”

Liu Zhang thought about it and slowly issued an order: order the officers and men of the three armies and the magistrates of all counties and counties in Yizhou to lay down their arms, seal the treasury, and surrender to the Taiwei Lord Liu and his subordinates.

After that, Liu Zhang left the Yizhou Thorn Mansion, returned to the back house, and ordered all his family members to surrender with him.
