Chapter Eighty-Six: Hold Your Ground
Ma Chao easily took Chengdu City, which was easier than he imagined. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć info thought that it would take a lot of hard work, but I didn't expect that Liu Zhang and his civil and military forces basically gathered together, and were served by Ma Chao, and the soldiers in the city were dumbfounded, and they didn't know what to do, so Liu Zhang spoke: "You are not Ma Chao?"
"I am naturally Ma Chao, but I am no longer Zhang Lu's Ma Chao, but Uncle Liu Huang's Ma Chao." Ma Chao captured Chengdu City, a great achievement, not to mention how happy he was, he inevitably had to say a few more words, "I advise you to surrender as soon as possible, don't do unnecessary resistance, and when Uncle Liu Huang comes, maybe he will remember the friendship of the same clan and let you live, even if it is not impossible for you to enjoy your old age in peace." ā
Listening to Ma Chao's words, Liu Zhang's face was like ashes, "Haha, is that the case?" Liu Zhang has now understood that his general trend has gone, and there is no other way but to surrender, if he really surrenders, maybe it will be as Ma Chao said, Liu Bei will let him enjoy his old age in peace. If you don't surrender, you will die now, and the ministers loyal to you will also die, although it will bring some trouble to Ma Chao, but is it really worth it?
"I surrender, but I have one condition." Liu Zhang didn't want to die, and he didn't want his loyal servants to make senseless sacrifices.
"You must treat the people of Yizhou well, and you must not kill my Yizhou civil and military forces without permission, and I will also advise them to surrender." As long as he surrenders, Liu Zhang's fate is saved, and the rest is his subordinate martial arts. There are not many people available to Liu Bei now, so these people, Liu Bei still has to use them, I am afraid that someone will disagree with Liu Bei and come out to die by himself!
"Naturally, there's no problem with that." Without waiting for Ma Chao to reply, Pang Tong had already agreed to Liu Zhang's conditions first. What kind of conditions are these, it is clearly welfare, for Liu Bei, it is simply beneficial and harmless, and it is a fool not to agree.
When Liu Zhang heard someone else interjecting, he turned his head to take a look, and he was startled: he looked so ugly.
Liu Zhang is also a person who has seen the "world", such as Zhang Song and others. Liu Zhang's face was expressionless, "This may have done the master?" "Ugly is a little ugly, but it looks like a good person, Liu Zhang thought silently.
"What is there that cannot be done to the Lord, it is completely beneficial to my Lord and not harmful."
"It's so good, Yizhou will be handed over to Xuande Gong in the future." Liu Zhang let out a long sigh and felt empty in his heart.
...
Ma Chao won Chengdu City, and also captured Liu Zhang and his civil and military forces, and the entire territory of Yizhou was naturally included in Liu Bei's territory, and Liu Bei laughed even more after receiving the news, and laughed to the end~ crying.
"I think of my Liu Bei all my life, I have few big ambitions, but I have been unlucky, I have been displaced for half my life, my wife and children have also suffered with me, and everything has been looked down upon, and now, now I Liu Bei finally have my own foundation." At the end, he couldn't stop crying.
"Alas, it's been suppressed for too long!" Chen Jin couldn't help but sigh when he saw Liu Bei in such a situation, "If you don't explode in silence, you will perish in silence." "What Lu Xun said is really right, fortunately Liu Bei broke out, if it perishes, it will be a big game.
However, just at this happy moment, a basin of cold water was poured on Liu Bei's head, and Kong Ming sent a letter.
"Report to the lord, a letter from the master of Zhuge Army, and the army of 70,000 soldiers will attack Jingzhou." The messenger bowed down and held the letter after speaking.
"It seems that you can't get carried away at any time!" Liu Bei was doused with cold water and sobered up a lot. "Bring it quickly." Liu Bei regained his majesty and said to his own soldiers.
Liu Bei took the letter, glanced at the ten lines, and hurriedly looked at it, "Hahaha, Kong Ming really lived up to expectations." After saying that, he looked at it again.
"Shi Kun is really self-defeating." After Liu Bei finished speaking, he slapped the table hard.
"What's wrong?" Chen Jinguang heard Liu Bei talking to himself, he didn't know what was going on at all, and he couldn't figure it out, as if Liu Bei was doing a show himself.
"Hehe, it's okay." After Liu Bei finished speaking, he passed down Zhuge Liang's letter and asked them all to read it.
"Zhuge Liang is Zhuge Liang, and nothing can be difficult for him!" Chen Jin couldn't help but be happy after reading the letter.
"The military advisor is really a god and a man." Wei Yan was not stingy with words, although Zhuge Liang was prejudiced against him, he still admired Zhuge Liang's ability.
"Although Kong Ming is confident that he will win this battle, he can't take it lightly!" After all, it's just a strategy and tactics, and it hasn't really started yet! Although tactically it has already won.
"An Ji has a point." Liu Bei also agreed with Chen Jin's view.
"We're going to Chengdu now?" Chen Jin asked.
"Well, Master Pang also came with a letter, and I haven't read it yet, so I patronized Ma Chao." After Liu Bei saw Ma Chao's letter, he was overjoyed, and he had already forgotten Pang Tong outside the clouds. "I'll open it right away and take a look." Liu Bei hurriedly took out Pang Tong's letter again.
Liu Bei opened it and took a look, well, rubbed his eyes and looked at it again.
"What's wrong" Chen Jin was inexplicably puzzled by Liu Bei's move, and he didn't know what was going on.
"Look at it." Liu Bei asked it to be passed down for everyone to see.
Chen Jin took the letter and looked at it, "Don't move, adapt to the situation." ā
Didn't you go to Chengdu, why didn't you move?
