That night, the Yizhou army was defeated again. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 The 50,000 elite troops were scattered under the assault of Zhao Yun's 5,000 cavalry, in the scorching firelight. With the lifeless escape of Liu Wei, the big-talking son, the fighting spirit of the army dispersed. The 50,000-strong army was defeated in an instant, and those who were lucky enough to meet Zhao Yun outside the camp and then rushed to Huang Zhong's headquarters. After a robbery, there are not too many people who can escape more fortunately. Many people became Huang Zhong's captives in this robbery. Only less than half of the centaurs made it out. In the end, these people joined up with the more fortunate Liu Wei, Liu Bi, and Wu Yi, and counted the number of people, but found that not only were there only about 20,000 of these people left, but also the connection between them was disrupted. It can be said that "soldiers cannot find generals, and soldiers will not be found." ”

The ten-stop troops went to six stops, and the remaining four-stop people were still so chaotic, which made Liu Bi and Wu Yi angry. There are not many elite soldiers and horses in Yizhou, and now they have lost so much, whether it is Liu Bi or Wu Yi, even if it is Wu Lan and Lei Tong, the two deputy generals, they are also sad and don't know how to be like their own main bus generation.

"What now?" Wu Yi asked. He knew that everything was caused by Liu Wei, the son-in-law, who was the first to escape, so he glared at Liu Wei very dissatisfied, but looked down at Liu Wei, who was already a little ashamed because of his timidity, and silently did not speak.

"Morale, establishment, military spirit, and fighting spirit are all things that our army lacks at the moment. Without these things, although the current team is large and mighty, it will not be able to kill people. We can no longer camp outside Yewai, and we must quickly retreat south to Mianzhu and Luocheng to defend the last gateways of these two CDs. Liu Yi sighed helplessly and said to Wu Yi - "Continue to retreat south, and then defend to the death." That's his solution to the problem at hand, and that's his advice.

"Alas...... That's all there is to it. Wu Yi knew that what Liu Bi said was the truth, so he naturally agreed. Although he himself was reluctant to do this, there was nothing he could do about it.

The army fled in panic, but Li Sheng did not pursue them. Because in Li Sheng's view, it seems that it is more important to quickly send people to tear down the embankment, and it seems that it is more important to save the lives of the people of Fucheng. Of course, the absence of a pursuit does not mean that Li Sheng did not strike at them. Just when they fled south in panic, a rumor about Liu Bi, Liu Wei, and Wu Yi who broke the water and harmed the people spread in Liu Zhang and even the entire Yizhou. For a time, the people of Yizhou were excited. Although they all understood the idea that Liu Bi and these generals wanted to win, they were unwilling to put the flood on their heads in order to win.

The common people were incapacitated, and it was impossible for their discussion to reach the ears of Liu Zhang and his high-ranking officials because of their status. And the fact that the people have greater ability than those people can be said to have completely supported the discussions of the big families that Liu Zhang exists in Yizhou, but it undoubtedly makes Liu Zhang and his courtiers panic. They had to send people to investigate the ins and outs of this matter on the one hand, and on the other hand, they sent people to various families to appease the patriarchs of the big families, but they kept busy with it.

Liu Zhang tried to minimize the impact of this message, but the big ones did not buy Liu Zhang's account. In the case that the matter has already happened, these big people who feel that the matter will endanger their interests do not want to listen to Liu Zhang's appeasement at all, but they themselves recommend someone to Liu Zhang and directly ask Liu Zhang about the status of this matter.

"O Lord Governor! We were born and raised in Sri Lanka, and we have never heard of an army that came to protect the territory and the people, and we have never heard of that army was trying to harm its own people in order to achieve victory. Lord Governor, what is going on with General Liu Bi's actions? Now that he can find a way to drown Fucheng in order to win the battle, will he find a way to drown the CD in order to win the war next time? Fire and water are ruthless. God knows whether it will be Li Shengjun or us who will suffer in the end. At this moment, in the hall of the CD Prefecture Pastoral Mansion, Li Hui, who was elected by the big families as the representative of his forces, said in front of Liu Zhang. He used to be Liu Zhang's subordinate, but later offended Liu Zhang because of something and was dismissed by Liu Zhang. At present, when he appeared in front of Liu Zhang as a representative of a big family, he was domineering and domineering, and there was not even a trace of lowliness at all. Although no one asked him to do this, he understood through his understanding of Liu Zhang's personality that only by acting very strong could Liu Zhang feel scared and achieve what he wanted to achieve.

"Well...... "Liu Zhang stammered. In front of Li Hui, the cold sweat on his forehead couldn't stop falling. He wouldn't have been like this, even in the face of Li Hui, even if Li Hui said something serious, it wouldn't be like this. But at this moment, it was a little different, because Liu Zhang knew that what was standing in front of him was not Li Hui, but the Yizhou clans behind Li Hui. For these important roles, he didn't dare to treat him as forcefully as his father, especially when there was an outsider like Li Sheng interfering in the current matter. "Alas...... I can't help it. In the face of Li Hui's aggressive posture, Liu Zhang couldn't resist it, so he had to bring his generals to the top cylinder: "...... These things are the result of Liu Xuan's arbitrary actions...... I don't know anything about it. Please rest assured, I will give you an explanation for this matter. ”

"Explain ......?" Li Hui was noncommittal on the surface, but in his heart he savored Liu Zhang's words: "Explanation...... And what? It's nothing more than telling us about the punishment of Liu Bi. For us, Liu Bi's punishment is naturally as severe as possible. But for Liu Zhang's subordinates, Liu Zhang's words like this are definitely a very painful thing. The subordinate worked for the lord, but the lord still gave him the black cauldron - no matter which subordinate this happened, it was also sad. Li Hui thought about it and shook his head secretly, but he was completely disappointed in Liu Zhang. He just said lightly: "Since this is the case, then I will wait for Lord Zhou Mu to bring us good news." ”

"Ahh Be...... Be! Liu Zhang smiled, without any majesty and reserve as a monarch. At this moment, he had already made up his mind in his heart, no matter what, he should punish Liu Bi, who was extremely disappointed in himself and found so much trouble for himself.

"Well, we'll see." Li Hui completed his responsibilities and turned around and left, seemingly not wanting to continue to stay by the side of Liu Zhang, who he hated at all.

Of course, after he came out of the governor's mansion, he did not leave the CD immediately, but went straight to an inn in the city to stay, quietly waiting for Liu Zhang's news. In his opinion, Liu Zhang is sometimes a very procrastinating person, but sometimes he can show great willfulness and decisiveness, especially when he is already angry in his heart and shows full disgust for a person. "The Governor will probably make a decision in a day or two, right? Hehe, there was a good show to watch then. Li Hui thought so, and a mocking smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

The results came out quickly, and everything was as Li Hui guessed, and Liu Zhang showed unprecedented decisiveness and willfulness in this matter.

The day after Li Hui left, Liu Zhang gathered all his subordinates and announced to them his decision to punish Liu Hui after a day of hard thinking: "Remove Liu Hui from the post of general and demote him to a subordinate apprentice!" Put it back on CD for trial! ”

This is quite a heavy punishment, especially at this time of crisis. After receiving the news of the defeat from the north one after another, although he still showed strength in his mouth, in fact, everyone couldn't help but feel fear of Li Shengjun's strength in their hearts. Many people are wondering if they are underestimating Li Sheng? Otherwise, how could the famous generals sent out by his side be defeated by Li Sheng's men one by one, and all of them would be so miserable? It seems that Liu Bi must take care of this matter for him. After all, Liu Bi's defeat was also to gain experience in fighting against Li Shengjun, and he understood Li Shengjun's hypocrisy. If this person were placed in normal times, he would be able to make him a good person, but at the moment, he knew that Li Shengjun's reality was the most important to everyone.

Thinking of this, Huang Quan and the others looked at each other for a moment, and then persuaded Liu Zhang: "Lord, although Liu Bi has been defeated many times, after all, he has been in front of the army for a long time and is old in the army, and he knows Li Sheng's truth quite well. I think the lord might as well spare him for a while, cut him off his duties as the chief general, demote him to a deputy general, and let him assist Counselor Wu Yi in front of this army. ”

"How can this be?" Liu Zhang frowned, and said secretly in his heart: "It's not my own willingness to punish Liu Bi so severely, the key is that someone behind me will force me." Although the big guys themselves don't work with us, their children are all over Yizhou. If I move, I'm afraid that I, the state pastor, will step down immediately. Alas, you said that I didn't dare to agree to these people's requests. ”

Liu Zhang had a headache, and he gently rubbed his forehead with his hand, but he really didn't want to continue to be involved with these people in this matter. He waved his hand and made the final decision: "Degrading Liu Bi to a subordinate and cutting him off all his positions cannot be changed." However, since everyone thinks that he is talented and can counsel the military aircraft, let him walk in front of the army as a subordinate. But I'm not going to give him any official position. If he can do a good job, I may give him the status of a civilian, and if not, he will wait to lose his head. In addition, he told Wu Yi that no matter what, he must give me to defend Mianzhu and Luocheng, and he must buy us enough time. The CD's soldiers have all been reloaded, the new army is training, and I don't have any reinforcements to give him for the time being. Let him figure it out for himself. ”

Liu Zhang said loudly. The more he talked and thought about it, the more he felt that his generals were so incompetent, that he became so angry that at last he seemed to be roaring.

Seeing Liu Zhang's attack in the upper position, Huang Quan below had to sigh helplessly, not daring to persuade again. In the end, the matter was settled. For Huang Quan, there is not much unhappiness about them, they don't care what kind of punishment Liu Bi receives, but whether Liu Bi himself can continue to stay on the front line. Yes, they didn't have much opinion on Liu Zhang's final decision, and even had some joy in their hearts: "Lord, I finally learned to dictate things." Although this decision is a bit excessive.

The news did not spread very quickly, but Li Hui, as the representative of those big households, learned about the meeting held by Liu Zhang through the relationship of those big households. He not only knew what the final result of Liu Zhang's meeting was, but also knew the twists and turns that Liu Zhang suffered in the meeting. It can be said that although he did not attend the meeting held by Liu Zhang, he knew every move of everyone in Liu Zhang's meeting well. He understood that Liu Zhang's decision was really a compromise under his own coercion and at the suggestion of his subordinates.

"No one likes such a compromise, though. Liu Bi himself doesn't say it, even Wu Yi, Lei Tong, and Wu Lan, who have also experienced the war with him, will not agree with this. Because from their point of view, there is nothing wrong with what Liu has done. Well, it must be the case, and when the news reaches Liu Bi because of this, they will definitely be disappointed because of it. It's hard to say what the results will be. Anyway, judging from Liu Zhang's performances, Liu Zhang's person seems to have really reached the point of fainting. Looks like his ship is about to sink! Well, it's time to put this over and find a new one instead. Li Hui took Liu Zhang's decision and studied it carefully for a long time, and finally came to such a result. He knew that he had to go on his back to meet Li Sheng, and this was also the commission of the second task he accepted this time: "to investigate the possibility of taking refuge in Li Sheng." "After all, the battle between Liu Zhang and Li Sheng was a situation where Liu Zhang was at a disadvantage. Although Liu Zhang showed no signs of defeat for a while, his performance was far inferior to Li Sheng's, and it also made the hearts of these powerful people in Yizhou active, and they all felt that it was time to contact Li Sheng, a strong guy. They didn't dare to do anything to hang themselves on a tree, especially when Liu Zhang's big tree was already showing signs of withering.

Li Hui's speed to the north was not fast, and he fell far behind the messenger sent by Liu Zhang to deliver the letter in the direction of Luocheng. Therefore, when Li Hui arrived in Luocheng leisurely, the news that Liu Hui was dismissed and retained by Liu Zhang was already circulating in the streets and alleys of Luocheng.

"It's too cheap to be dismissed like this. For a general like him, it's better to kill his head as soon as possible, it's too cheap for him to live. Speaking of this news, the people of the city always said it with a little disappointment and annoyance.

The news that spread to the CD naturally also circulated in Luocheng. Because of the results of the hype of Liu Bi's behavior in that news, the people of Yucheng were full of hatred and contempt for Liu Bi and even the Yizhou Army brought by Liu Bi. They don't think that this army is their own army, and they are fighting against foreign enemies in order to defend themselves, in their opinion, this army is just defending to the death so that Liu Zhang will not be replaced by Li Sheng, and it is really not a noble army. As a result, the people of Luocheng were cold-eyed to Liu Bi's army, and the big families in Luocheng were all vain and snake-tailed to Liu Bi's orders, and the treatment that Liu Bi's army received here was even worse than the treatment he had received in the "enemy country" when he went to Zhang Lu before. Those indifferent faces had already made the soldiers of the entire Yizhou army feel chilled. Those soldiers generally did not dare to leave the camp, and even when they left the camp, they changed into civilian clothes and bowed their heads in promise. Under the unanimous contempt of everyone, they didn't dare to shout loudly when they came out to do things, and they all behaved with their tails between their legs.

"The power of rumors is so great, it's really frightening." After seeing the scene of hostility between the army and the people and the low morale of the soldiers in the city, Li Hui had a positive opinion on Liu Zhang's defeat. He knew that the current state of Yicheng would definitely not be able to be protected under Li Sheng's attack, and once one side of the Mianzhu and Luocheng lines fell, Li Sheng's army could go straight under the CD and easily capture the CD City, which had long been without any troops.

"Alas, the foundation of the Liu family in Shu is over......" Li Hui sighed, and hastily rested in the city for a night before leaving, heading north.

Less than thirty miles out of the city, Li Hui saw Li Shengjun's camp. Obviously, Li Shengjun has caught up and approached Yucheng, and it seems that he intends to use Yucheng as a breakthrough. Li Hui was somewhat surprised by Li Shengjun's reaction, but he quickly realized: "There are capable people in Li Shengjun." He must be very clear about the situation in Luocheng and the CD, and it is even possible that the rumors circulating in Yizhou were launched by Li Shengjun. High, that's just too high. It was so simple to let the defense of the city suffer a loss in the eyes of ordinary people, which was not something ordinary people could think of. It seems that Li Sheng, the sovereign, is really a little extraordinary. Li Hui thinks a lot more highly of Li Sheng. At this moment, he was looking forward to meeting Li Sheng even more.

Unlike Peng Yi, who liked to grind mushrooms and was not very confident in his reputation last time, Li Hui, who was also a famous man in Shuzhong, was very confident in his name, and he walked straight to the door of Li Sheng's military camp. Regardless of the very strange eyes of the little soldier guarding the door, he waved his sleeves so dashingly, and shouted at the little soldier with confidence: "Jianning Li Hui came to meet General Li Zhennan." ”

Li Hui's voice was very loud, and it spread far and wide in this camp. Of course, his words could not be directly heard by Li Sheng. He is just a Wenchen, not the Zhang Fei who can make the river flow backwards by cutting off drinking, he knows this, and he doesn't plan to let Li Sheng know through this drinking. He just wanted to get more people's attention because of this. After all, his sudden appearance in front of the barracks was so surprising that it was easy to be mistaken for a spy. In order to avoid being misunderstood and clicked directly, Li Hui naturally had to use such a small means.

I have to say that he caused a sensation by doing this, but the result of his sensation was very good. After the reorganization of Fucheng, the number of Yizhou people has greatly increased, and many of them have heard of the name of Li Hui, a famous person in Yizhou. At this moment, they heard that someone called himself Li Hui and wanted to come to see their lord, so they naturally connected Li Hui in front of them with the rumored celebrity Li Hui. They didn't dare to slack off, and soon reported the matter that Li Hui, a famous person in Yizhou, asked to see, to Li Sheng. After a while, the partial general Zhao Yun came out to pick up Li Hui.

To be honest, Li Hui at this moment really felt flattered when he saw Zhao Yun coming to guide him. For him, although he did not get the treatment that Li Sheng personally went out of the camp to greet him, it was enough to get the treatment that Zhao Yun came to greet him. After doing some research on Li Sheng, he naturally knew that this Zhao Yun was not only Li Sheng's brother-in-law, but also one of the most valued generals under Li Sheng. The two fists in the hands of Li Sheng, who were attacking Yizhou at this moment, were Zhao Yun's cavalry and Huang Zhong's infantry. Moreover, compared to Huang Zhong's infantry, which was more often used as a means of concealment, Zhao Yun, who often broke into the enemy camp with elite cavalry, was undoubtedly more eye-catching, and he may be regarded as a man of the hour in Li Sheng's army. To receive himself by such a character is already a great deal of face, and what is there to dissatisfaction with.

After politely saying hello to the personable general, Li Hui walked into the barracks under the leadership of Zhao Yun and entered Li Sheng's tent. Li Sheng put on a very grand posture to greet Li Hui, not only Pang Tong, Fa Zheng, Huang Zhong, such major strategists and generals were there, but even Peng Yi, who had recently joined Li Sheng's army, and those battalions and colonels under Li Sheng's army were also listed in the big tent. The curtain of the tent was held high, and the guards outside the tent stood in two rows. They were all veterans, although they didn't raise their swords and swords to make a threatening appearance, but there was only a solemn atmosphere emanating from their bodies, which made Li Hui, who passed by them, feel the majesty that permeated the air.

For such majesty, Li Hui endured it in a dashing manner, he was not affected much by this, but strode into the big tent, generously gave a salute in front of Li Sheng, and said with a smile: "Jianning Li Hui has seen General Li Zhennan and all the heroes. ”

"Guest, where did you come from?" Regarding Li Hui's chic bearing, Li Sheng nodded with a smile and asked with satisfaction.

"It started from Jianning and came through CD Cheng." Li Hui announced his itinerary to Li Sheng very bluntly.

"That's a lot of walking." Li Sheng smiled slightly, and there was a faint grace on his face with two mustaches, "Sir, can you tell me what the situation is in the south?" ”

"What about the south?" Li Hui pretended to be surprised: "Doesn't Li Yuanjun know the situation in the south? I heard that Li Yuanjun is full of spies in Yizhou. As for the situation in the south, the envoy should be very clear. ”

"What do you mean by that?" Li Sheng's face changed color slightly, but then he quickly returned to normal, and he didn't hide Li Hui, and said directly: "I've heard a little about things in the south, but those are all vague and trivial matters. For further information, I can't get the details from the rumors. Please teach me this. ”

Li Sheng seemed very frank, this was the difference between him and Cao Cao's dead-faced quibbles. In his opinion, the other party has obviously guessed your arrangement, and appeared in front of you alone, so what is there to worry about. You can tell the truth clearly, if the other person wants to come to you. If you don't have that kind of thought, you can easily kill him. There's no need to hide that people think you're treacherous and hypocritical—that's what Li Sheng said.

When he said this, Li Hui's heart was moved. As a wise man, Li Hui naturally knew how important this matter that Li Sheng admitted was to Li Sheng himself. "How can I treat them with vain when they treat me with sincerity?" Li Hui thought so, and then opened his mouth to tell Li Sheng everything he knew.

The rumors that swept across the land of Yizhou made Liu Zhang very embarrassed. The entire southern Yizhou, which is the place that you have not yet captured, from the most ordinary people to people from large families like me, are all suspicious of Liu Zhang and the generals under Liu Zhang. After all, the fact that they had to flood the city in order to win was too irritating for them. They are all people who were born and raised here, and they can say that their foundation is here, and they can tolerate any one person to be their ruler, but they cannot tolerate this lord to spoil their place. The exposure of the Liu Bi incident undoubtedly made them lose confidence in Liu Zhang. The reason why I came here through the CD Club is actually to accept the instructions of those big families to try to contact you, the general. The general's strength has made the people of Yizhou see Liu Zhang's cowardice clearly. As far as the city of Ruo that the general was about to face was concerned, the people in the city had already been antagonized by rumors against the soldiers in the city, and the morale of the army defending the city was very low, and it was almost a battle. It can be said that Liu Zhang's defeat is only a matter of time, and the general's entry into the CD is a foregone conclusion. In such a situation, we are all genuinely afraid. Li Hui said that he was sincere and fearful, but his face did not show even a little sincere fear, he smiled faintly, and the corners of his mouth were slightly pouted, so that people could see his face, how could they pull the expression on his face with two words - that is mockery.

"De'ang must have seen Liu Zhang, right?" Regarding Li Hui's words, Li Sheng was still thinking, but the military law next to him opened his mouth to ask.

"Yes." Li Hui nodded and replied.

"What did you say to Liu Zhang? Threaten him to give you more privileges? Fa Zheng asked, and the mockery on Li Hui's face was also on his face at this moment.

"Hyozhi, do you think we would be so unwise? Putting all your chips on a sinking ship? Li Hui smiled faintly, "The situation in front of you is already obvious. No matter how much we help Liu Zhang, it is impossible to restore Liu Zhang's defeat militarily. Li Yuanjun is not afraid of killing, and we are not willing to use our own head to test whether the knife in the hand of the envoy is sharp. In such a situation, will we still use my heat to warm Liu Zhang, who is already dying? ”

"And what do you ask of me?" This is what Li Sheng asked. If Li Sheng didn't quite understand what Fa Zheng wanted to ask when Fa Zheng first spoke, then after hearing about this conversation between Fa Zheng and Li Hui, Li Sheng understood what Fa Zheng's purpose was in asking Li Hui - Li Hui and the forces of the Nayizhou clan he represented wanted to take refuge in themselves, but this refuge was not carried out at their most critical time, so they could not be unconditional, and Fa Zheng asked like that undoubtedly to find out what Li Hui's conditions were. This is also the question that Li Sheng wants to know at the moment.

"Quite simply, we don't want to lose too much. That is to say, we don't want Li Yuanjun to use the same set used in Jingnan, Jiaozhou, and Fucheng on our heads. We would like to have a more special policy. Seeing that Li Sheng's question was so straightforward, Li Hui's answer naturally became straightforward.

"Oh?" Listening to Li Hui's answer, Li Sheng laughed playfully: "I'm afraid you made such an order on your own in the rear." That was a decision made before witnessing the appearance of our troops. In the light of what you have seen and heard at the moment, Mr. De'on, do you think such a decision is appropriate? ”

"It doesn't seem like a good fit." Li Hui is a real person, and he naturally admits this.

"Hehe, hurry up. Mr. De'ang, I want to know your bottom line on these people. Li Sheng asked with a smile.

"Okay." Li Hui nodded, "The bottom line of our big families is to ask the lord to allow us to keep two-thirds of the existing fields and one-half of the existing clan private soldiers, the south is not as good as the north, there are many barbarians." ”

"That's right." Li Sheng touched his nose, but this time he agreed very happily: "Then do as you say." But I hope you'll give us enough support as we get into CD. ”

"That's nature!" Li Hui nodded heavily.
