At this time, Liu Feng also stepped forward, stood side by side with Wei Yan, looked at Chengdu City from afar, and couldn't help but be excited, and said to Wei Yan: "Wen Chang, tonight is the time for you and me to achieve great achievements." ”

Wei Yan smiled knowingly, and then shouted: "Come on, bring Liu Zhang over." ”

After a short time, Liu Zhang was escorted by several fierce soldiers, his hands were loose, but his legs and feet were tightly tied to the horse's back, and the horse under his crotch was connected to the soldiers who were guarding him, so that he had no chance to slip away.

At this moment, Liu Zhang's spirit has changed from despair to panic, because although Liu Bei promised to spare him from dying, he didn't trust Liu Bei at all, so on the way out of Fucheng, he was always worried about fear, for fear that Liu Bei would regret and kill him.

At this time, he was called, Liu Zhang saw Liu Feng at a glance, and recognized that this was Liu Bei Yizi, who wanted to kill him when he was in the tent at that time, and he couldn't help but be terrified in his heart, and he lowered his head and shivered on the horse, and he didn't even dare to make a sound.

Liu Feng saw that Liu Zhang looked as timid as a mouse, and he despised him more and more, so he wanted to deliberately tease him, so he turned his face sideways and said in a deep voice: "Chengdu City has arrived, it's useless to keep this rice bucket, let's slaughter it with a knife." ”

Liu Zhang couldn't help but be shocked when he heard this, and shouted in a trembling voice: "Xuande said to keep me safe, you can't kill me, killing me is believing but not believing!" ”

Liu Feng's face turned angry, and he scolded: "Okay, you lost your family dog still dare to threaten me with your father, come, drag him down and cut me a thousand times." ”

As soon as Liu Feng's words came out, Liu Zhang was so frightened that he almost peed his pants on the spot, and he was busy kowtowing and crying on the horse: "It's my mistake, I shouldn't offend the general, please spare my life, spare my life......"

Looking at Liu Zhang's surname, the people around him were ridiculed. Liu Feng also sneered, and said disdainfully: "It's really a big joke that such a greedy person who is afraid of death can be the lord of a state for so many years." ”

Of course, Wei Yan knew that Liu Feng was deliberately teasing him, and seeing that he was almost having fun, he said to Liu Zhang in a polite tone: "Liu Jiyu, my lord originally wanted to kill you, but in the same sect, I left you with a surname." When you get to the city, as long as you obediently cooperate with us to open the city gate, the eldest prince and I will leave you with a surname, otherwise not only will your head be lost, but when the city is broken, you will also wipe out your three clans, do you understand? ”

Liu Zhang seemed to have slipped back from the ghost gate, and after listening to Wei Yan's words, he hurriedly said: "Don't worry, two generals, I will fully cooperate with you, as long as you spare my life, I am willing to do anything." ”

"Well, that's good, that's good."

Wei Yan patted Liu Zhang's shoulder like a child, very satisfied, and then ordered the whole army to go straight to Chengdu City.

Two thousand cavalry galloped like the wind, and arrived at the north gate of Chengdu in a moment. It was late at night, and there were only a small number of guards on duty in the city, and when they heard that there was movement outside the city, they immediately made a noise.

The light was dim, and the colonel on duty in the city urgently ordered the soldiers to prepare for battle, and shouted to the city: "Whoever is outside the city, stop quickly, and if you get closer, you will release arrows!" ”

Wei Yan ordered to slow down, personally escorted Liu Zhang to the moat, and shouted towards the city head: "Are you blind, the state pastor is here, don't open the city gate quickly." ”

The little colonel in the city couldn't help but be shocked when he heard that Liu Zhang had returned, and hurriedly asked the soldiers to raise more torches, and looked at the city through the gradually bright light.

"Why did the lord return to Chengdu so late?"

The little colonel was also a loyal person, and he was not gullible, so he still asked with suspicion.

Wei Yan took out the dagger, pressed it against Liu Zhang's vest from behind, and shouted in a low voice: "Obediently call the city gate open, or I will stab you to death immediately." ”

The matter has come to this, Liu Zhangyan dared not to obey, so he made up his mind very quickly, raised his head and shouted: "Benzhou Mu has something important to go back to the house, what are you talking about, don't open the city gate quickly, I will take you to justice if you miss a major event." ”

As soon as the little colonel heard this voice, he was sure that it was the state pastor, and he hurriedly smiled: "The lord is angry, and the little one will open the city immediately, immediately." ”

After a while, the drawbridge was lowered, the city gate was wide open, Wei Yan and others were excited, so they rushed into Chengdu City, he first sent troops to take over the four gates with Liu Zhang's hand, and then divided a team of soldiers and horses to occupy the arsenal, and then took Liu Zhang straight to the state governor's mansion.

According to the state capital, Wei Yan quickly arrested hundreds of members of several Liu Zhang's family, especially Liu Xun and several other Liu Zhang's sons and nephews, for fear that one would get away with one and be rebelled by those unsatisfied foreign officials in the future, which would become a hidden danger.

At the same time, Wei Yan also ordered Liu Zhang to issue an edict to summon the civil and military officials in Chengdu to come to the state capital late at night, and take advantage of the leakage of the news to control all the high-level dignitaries in Chengdu, so as not to cause any waves.

As a result, the courtiers under Liu Zhang, without knowing it, had to get up from the bed and rush to the state capital in the middle of the night with a sense of sleepiness. After entering the state capital, they did not see Liu Zhang, but were all invited to the meeting hall, and the hall was surrounded by heavily armed armor soldiers, looking heavily guarded.

Seeing this, the ministers vaguely felt that something big was going to happen.

In the crowd, Zhang Ren approached Huang Quan and said in a low voice: "Gong Heng, have you seen it, the guards around here are all new faces, why did the lord replace all his personal soldiers with new people overnight, this is too strange." ”

Huang Quan was also full of suspicion: "Yes, I heard that the lord rushed back to Chengdu in the starry night, and this time he changed his own soldiers, and he urgently summoned us to come to discuss matters late at night. ”

Huang Quan's words reminded Zhang Ren, and his face suddenly changed, and he said: "Isn't it the meeting of Fucheng, the lord saw that Liu Bei had bad intentions, so he rushed back overnight?" The urgent summoning of us now is to discuss how to deal with that Liu Bei. ”

Huang Quan nodded in agreement, but said suspiciously: "This is not right, when the lord went, he brought 20,000 soldiers and horses, and Liu Bei only had 10,000 in his hands." Even if the lord found out that Liu Bei had different intentions, 20,000 horses were enough to deal with it for a while, so why abandon the army and return alone. ”

Zhang Ren thought for a moment and snorted: "That Liu Bei is a brave and warlike person, with the ability of the lord, let alone 20,000 horses, even if he has 100,000 soldiers, he may not be able to win Liu Bei, I think it is the lord who is panicked, so he abandoned the soldiers and horses, and fled back in a panic in the starry night." ”

Huang Quan was taken aback and said: "If this is the case, wouldn't the 20,000 soldiers and horses fall into the hands of Liu Bei, Fucheng and Chengdu are close at hand, if Liu Bei uses his army to attack, but he should do nothing." ”

Although Huang Quan and others rejected Liu's faction, they were still quite afraid of Liu Bei's force.

That Zhang Ren didn't think so, and said angrily: "Chengdu still has 50,000 or 60,000 soldiers and horses, and the grain and grass are enough for several years. ”

Huang Quan breathed a sigh of relief and said, "With Old General Zhang here, Liu Bei is not worried." ”

Here, Huang Quan just praised the mouth, but when he saw Liu Zhang, he walked out of the back hall, followed by more than a dozen officers and soldiers with the same unfamiliar faces.

As soon as Liu Zhang appeared, the lobby was suddenly silent, and everyone's eyes shot at Liu Zhang, but they saw that their lord's expression was gloomy, and he looked dejected, and there seemed to be a deep fear between his eyebrows.

Seeing this, everyone's hearts became more and more suspicious.

Huang Quan stepped forward separately and hurriedly asked, "Lord, you rushed back to Chengdu so late, isn't it that Liu Xuande from Fucheng really plotted against him?" ”

In response to Huang Quan's question, Liu Zhang not only did not answer, but also turned his head to the two young generals beside him, as if he was asking for their meaning.

Those two are naturally Liu Feng and Wei Yan.

At that moment, Liu Feng stepped forward, pointed at Huang Quan and said coldly: "Who gave you permission to speak, shut up and get out of the way." ”

Huang Quan was immediately furious and shouted, "Who are you? How dare you be so disrespectful. ”

Liu Feng was angry and wanted to draw his sword on the spot, but was stopped by Wei Yan. Wei Yan looked peaceful, arched his hand to Huang Quan, and said, "This gentleman, please wait for a while, Duke Liu has something important to announce to you." ”

Huang Quan didn't know what he meant, but when he saw Liu Zhang's submissive look, he didn't react, so he had to suppress the fire and retreat first.

At this time, Wei Yancai said to Liu Zhang: "Okay, I have counted the list, and everyone is almost here, you can announce it." ”

After getting permission, Liu Zhang turned around and faced everyone, but he lowered his head and didn't dare to face everyone's eyes, and was shy for a long time before he said weakly: "Zhang has been the state pastor for several years, and he has nothing to do, he can't care for the people, and he can't settle the people, so he is really ashamed of the people of Yizhou." Seeing Uncle Liu Huang this time, he knew that he was a hero in the world, and Zhang thought that only he could protect Yizhou, so Zhang had decided to give up the position of the state pastor to Uncle Liu Huang, and asked you to fully assist Uncle Liu Huang in the future. ”

As soon as these words came out, the audience was in an uproar, and the voices of opposition were immediately heard.

Seeing this, Wei Yan's amiable expression immediately became extremely solemn, and he pulled out his sword, holding his sword and shouting: "I am Wei Yan, the general under Liu Jingzhou's account, and I will take over Chengdu first on the order of my lord, and my lord's army will arrive later." Liu Jiyu has decided to give up Yizhou, and those who are courtiers should obey it, whoever dares not to obey, my lord has an order, and he will be punished for disobedience! ”

As soon as Wei Yan's words came out, the ministers were all shocked, and they only knew at this time that their lord was forced to give way under the abduction of someone, and at this time, everything was revealed, and they realized that these armor soldiers around them were all Liu Bei's people.

Wei Yan said, Liu Feng also drew his sword and said: "Uncle Liu Huang takes over Yizhou, those who are willing to serve stand in the left column, and those who are not convinced stand in the right column." ”

This is a naked threat, these Yizhou scholars are also smart, at this time they know that the general trend has gone, although they are still unconvinced, but they dare not openly resist, so, after a moment of silence, all the civil and military people have to stand to the left, even Huang Quan shook his head and sighed, reluctantly stood to the left.

In the end, the courtiers crowded the left side, and on the right side, only a gray-haired old man, alone, stood in place with an arrogant face.
