Chapter 171 Delong right Zhang Heng surrendered, entered Liangzhou to isolate Han Sui

The above book mentioned that Zhang Heng wanted to surrender to sincerity, and asked Meng Da and Huo Jun to talk before the battle. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 info Meng Da and Huo Jun thought that Zhang Heng was cheating, but after meeting unexpectedly, Zhang Heng had a good idea, and he was really ready to surrender.

Meng Da and Huo Jun are veterans of Qinzhou, where do they dare to be the masters of Guan Yu and others. Therefore, the two of them clearly stated that they were willing to be introduced in front of Guan Yu.

Two days later, Guan Yu led the army to Longyou.

As soon as the tent was raised and sat firmly, Meng Da and Huo Jun stepped forward to report: "Report to the general, Zhang Heng, the right guard of Long, wants to offer Guan Toucheng." I talked to my subordinates the day before yesterday. I saw that he still had concerns, so I said that I would introduce him in front of the general! I don't know why, general? ”

"Zhang Heng? How is this person usually doing? Guan Yu turned his head and asked Cheng Yindao.

"Zhang Heng was originally the lieutenant of Longyou County, in charge of Longyou's soldiers and horses, and assisted his uncle Taishou Zhang Yi. But he has never done anything harmful, and he is a more sensible person. When Han was enshrined in Liangzhou, he wanted to raise troops in Jincheng, and we were helpless. Cheng Yin hurriedly explained. It seems that Cheng Yin and Zhang Heng have a good personal relationship on weekdays, otherwise it would not be easy for Cheng Yin to say these words to defend Zhang Heng.

"In that case, so-and-so will send you to say that he is sincere!" Guan Yu nodded and said, "The matter of the two of you as an official and a knight, you will be temporarily awarded the position of general from Wupin. If there are any more military exploits, a certain cousin brother will come forward and wait for you to enter the official. Before he came, he was authorized by his eldest brother Liu Qian: General Tou Cheng will first confer the position of general, and those who have military merits will be rewarded.

Cheng Yin was overjoyed when he heard this, and hurriedly kowtowed to thank him.

After worshipping, Cheng Yin said goodbye, got up and went to Longyou City to lobby Zhang Heng.

Cheng Yin came out of the big tent of the Chinese army, returned to his tent, dressed up a little, and then took several guards and rode to Longyou.

It is said that Zhang Heng has been in the house for the past two days, but he doesn't want to think about tea, and he is thinking about whether he is right or wrong to surrender. From time to time, he ran to his uncle Zhang Yi's Taishou Mansion and asked his uncle about his plan.

Zhang Yi is over fifty years old, and he is already old, and he has experienced the three dynasties of Emperor Ling, Emperor Shao, and Emperor Xian, and he can also be said to be the elder of the three dynasties. If the situation changes today, he can see it very thoroughly, but he is also very helpless. Therefore, he warned Zhang Heng and other nephews on weekdays to keep a low profile, guard the border counties, and learn to observe the strength of others. If you are weaker than yourself, you will be co-opted, and if you are stronger than yourself, you will be closer. After all, there is no one in his family who is powerful, resourceful, or physically super-strong, or has far-reaching appeal.

Seeing his nephew Zhang Heng asking about his plan this time, the old lady said: "Han Sui's ambition is not small, but it is only a few counties in Liangzhou!" After the Xiping Yellow Turban, he was the second official residence, so Jue Lu could be ranked as the third duke. However, he actually lives in Shu, but why? ”

Where did Zhang Heng know, he only shook his head.

"It's just because the DPRK is unbearable, its vision is far-reaching, and it knows that the DPRK is like this, and it changes over time. Therefore, please stay on the side, one can rest and recuperate, and the other can stay away from disasters. However, if you think about changes today, it is a true dragon of the royal family, how can it be compared to a delicate dragon such as Emperor Xian? We can naturally stay with their side for a long time! Zhang Yi said with a smile, "Uncle Wei is old, you still don't let me rest assured!" But this time it's okay, I can rest assured that I will go to the west. When the rebellious general arrives, you and my uncle and nephew will greet you outside the city. ”

Sure enough. Two days later, Cheng Yin entered the city as a lobbyist and wanted to talk about Zhang Heng.

Zhang Heng heard that Guan Yu had arrived. Hurriedly entered the interior to invite his uncle Zhang Yi. Accompanied by Cheng Yin, Zhang Yi and Zhang Heng's uncle and nephew led the officials of Longyou to go out of the city to welcome Guan Yu into the city.

When Guan Yu heard the report, he was not hypocritical, and arranged for Zhou Cang and the generals to camp outside the city, so as not to enter the city and disturb the people. He took Fa Zheng and Cheng Yin into the city with Zhang's uncle and nephew.

When they came to the Taishou Mansion, everyone sat down.

Guan Yu said to Zhang Yi: "I have heard for a long time that Lord Taishou is diligent and loves the people, and this time he is even more dedicated to my lord for the sake of tens of thousands of living beings." The people of Yu for Longyou are very pleased! ”

"Han Sui was originally a horse thief and was brutal by nature. This time, he was even assassinated in history, raising unrighteous soldiers, and aiding in abuse. We are all big Han people, and we must not use swords and soldiers in vain!" Zhang Yi said.

What Zhang Taishou said was very true. Our lord is crusading against the national thief Dong Zhuo in Yongzhou to save the Son of Heaven. However, Han Sui aided in the abuse after that, causing the war to be disturbed at the front. Therefore, Guan wants to crusade against him, I don't know what Taishou thinks? ’”

After Zhang Yi saw that Guan Yu had arrived, he did not say a word about the resettlement of his uncle and nephew. It seems that Guan Yu is just passing through here, he is a smart person, seeing Guan Yu like this, he knows that this time his position seems to have been preserved, and this bet is also on the right treasure!

"General, the old man thought that he could raise a large army to directly suppress Wuwei; Then the fierce generals rushed to attack Xijun and Zhangye. The people in Xijun and Zhangye counties are scarce, and there are many herdsmen, who are not good at management. Han Sui's original Zhangye was too guarded, and he was already tired of Zhangye's poverty, so all the troops were stationed in Wuwei. The defenders of Zhangye and Xijun were only thousands. Therefore, Lao Yu suggested that the general should make the fierce generals raid Zhangye and Xijun and the second county first to isolate Wuwei. Zhang Yi said.

Fa Zheng heard some doorways on the side, but there was still something incomprehensible, so he asked: "Dare to ask Lord Zhang, Zhangye and Xijun are afraid that it is not good!" If our army can't attack it, how can we isolate Wu Weihu? ”

"If the attack is too late, our army can hold the Jinchang Pass, so that the army of the two places will not be allowed to enter the pass, and Wuwei will naturally be isolated!" Zhang Yi said with a smile.

"It turns out that Lord Zhang's intention is here! Then our army can directly take Jinchang! Fa Zheng said.

Zhang Heng said on the side: "Jin Chang can enter the hands of the general without effort!" ”

When Guan Yu heard this, he couldn't help asking, "How do you say this?" ”

"Could it be my brother Cheng Jin?" Cheng Yin saw Zhang Heng and Zhang Yi staring at him, and suddenly thought of his brother. When he was in Xijun, he led the army to leave, and his brother stayed in Xijun, why is he in Jinchangguan now?

"Not bad! It was General Cheng Jin. As for why General Cheng Jin arrived at Jinchang Pass, the old man doesn't know! Zhang Yi said.

"That's good! Lord Zhang, there is still a lot of trouble for you to govern the people in this right place. As for Zhang Duwei, a certain generation of eldest brother canonized you as a general, and you were subject to the five grades. This time, he went out to Wuwei. I don't know what you and the two of you think? Guan Yu saw that Zhang Yi had informed himself of the general situation in Liangzhou, and knew that it was time for him to leave, and seeing that Zhang Yi was available, he arranged for Zhang Yi to continue to stay in office, and canonized Zhang Heng as a general, which can be regarded as an explanation to the uncle and nephew.

Zhang Yi and Zhang Heng hurriedly thanked them.

That night, Guan Yu, Fa Zheng, and Cheng Yin stayed in Longyou Taishou's mansion for dinner, and had a very happy conversation with Zhang Yi's uncle and nephew.

The next day, Zhang Heng led 5,000 soldiers and horses from his headquarters and followed Guan Yu to Guan Yu's camp outside the city.

Back in the camp, Guan Yu discussed with Fa Zheng again, and sent the generals Cheng Lian and Song Xian to lead 2,000 cavalry, 3,000 sword and shield soldiers, and 3,000 spear soldiers, a total of 8,000 elites as the vanguard, directly approaching Wuwei; He also made Zhang Heng and Cheng Yin lead 7,000 soldiers and horses from their headquarters to Jinchang Pass and persuade Cheng Jin to surrender.

After receiving the order, Cheng Lian and Song Xian gathered their soldiers and horses and rushed to Wuwei.

Besides, Zhang Heng and Cheng Yin led 7,000 soldiers and horses, and went straight to Jinchang Pass.

Two days later, they came to the outside of Jinchang Pass. Cheng Yin made a customs declaration and asked to see the general guarding the customs.

After a while, the city guards reported to the gate and led the generals to the city tower. Cheng Yin saw that it was really his eldest brother Cheng Jin, and hurriedly shouted: "Brother, is it really you?" ”

"Second brother?!" Cheng Jin couldn't help but be stunned when he saw Cheng Yin, and asked, "Second brother, didn't you go to Jincheng with Lord Assassin Shi?" ’”

Cheng Yin didn't rush to answer his brother's question, but said with a smile: "Brother, don't you like your brother to vote for you?" ”

Cheng Jin Fang only remembered to let his younger brother and others enter the customs, and hurriedly asked someone to open the gate, put Cheng Yin, Zhang Heng and others into the gate, and led the two into his mansion.

Cheng Jin asked the two again why they came this time.

Cheng Yin looked at the subordinates who were waiting on the side, and then looked at the eldest brother Cheng Jin, but did not speak.

Cheng Jin understands that this is a shady thing! He stood up, waved his hand at the men, and ordered them to go out. When there were only three of them left in the house, Cheng Yin spoke: "Big brother, little brother came to save your life!" ”

"Second brother, where do you say that?" Cheng Jin hurriedly asked.

"General Zhengxi's army has entered Liangzhou. In a few days, Han Sui will die. In the past Jincheng battlefield, Han Sui left his brother. Fortunately, General Suizhong under the command of General Zhengxi treated his younger brother with righteousness, and his younger brother has survived so far. Cheng Yin stared at his eldest brother's eyes and said with emotion, "Today, General Zhang Heng and Zhang Yi are too guarded, and the three of us have all surrendered to General Zhengxi, and they have been canonized. Now General Zhang Heng and I have both been named generals. ”

"The second brother came here this time to make his brother join the general of the West Expedition?" Cheng Jin asked with wide eyes.

"Yes and no!" Cheng Yin said.

"What do you mean by that?" Cheng Jin said hatefully.

"This is a letter written by Guan Yu, the righteous brother of the general of the expedition to the west and the main general of the expedition against Han Sui." Cheng Yin handed his eldest brother a letter, and then said, "General Zhang and I came here to lead the troops, and that was to intercept Han Sui's rescue troops and isolate them completely. After the rebellious general cracks Wuwei, we will guard it. ”

Cheng Jin took the letter, looked at it for a long time, sighed and said, "Second brother, maybe you are right." In that case, then the three of us will organize the sergeants here to stick to this pass. ”

It seems that Guan Erye's letter really made Cheng Jin make up his mind to surrender. It turned out that the key point in Guan Yu's letter was that he Cheng Jin was still in charge of Jinchang Pass, and Cheng Yin and Zhang Heng were supplemented, so that he strictly guarded Jinchang Pass and was not allowed to let anyone in or out. With such trust, does he have a reason for Cheng Jinyan not to return to obedience?

Jinchangguan is done, and Han Sui's Wuwei County is unlucky.

It is said that Cheng Lian and Song Xian led 8,000 elite soldiers to come to the realm of Wuwei and were blocked by Han Sui's generals Cheng Yi and Ma Play outside a small town called Gulang.

Cheng Lian caused Song Xian to mobilize troops to surround his rear and engage in battle head-on.

Cheng Yi saw Cheng Lian's soldiers arrive, and patted his horse to fight Cheng Lian. Cheng Lian took a knife and slapped the horse into battle. After fighting for less than twenty times, Cheng Yi was defeated and was killed by Cheng Lian under the horse.

Cheng Lian took advantage of the situation, led the army to kill the past, and played with horses to lead the army to resist.

When the battle was not long, Song Xian led the cavalry to kill from behind. The abdomen and back were affected by the enemy, and the front and rear of the horse play army were all chaotic, and they suddenly showed their defeat. Ma Yu panicked in his heart, one did not pay attention, was swept by Cheng Lian's big knife, cut off the horse, captured alive by the soldiers, and the sergeants under his command were either killed in battle or fled or surrendered.
