Wang Lei came from the inner city with a large number of civil officials, and when he saw Liu Zhang, he was about to bow down, but Liu Zhang, who was covered in blood, barely helped Wang Ti up, panting and said: "Wang Ti, you can come, it shows that you are indeed loyal to this official, but now this official is in a desperate situation, you are a civil official, you don't need to be buried with this official, you can leave by yourself." ”

Wang Lei eagerly bowed and said: "My lord, although Wang Lei has no power to restrain the chicken, but he has a loyal heart, the lord is in a desperate situation, and Wang Lei is willing to live and die with the lord." ”

"Don't be foolish." Liu Zhang said weakly, supervising the battle all night, his heart was a little tired, "The military general should die on the battlefield, and the horse leather shroud should be returned, but the civil officials should govern one side and benefit the people on one side, what is the use of your Wang Ti dying in the city today?" When you return to Chengdu, do your duty loyally and appease the people of Li is what you should do, remember, whether Zhao Wei or this official is guarding Yizhou, as a civil official, you should put the people first, not be buried with this official here. ”

Liu Zhang is actually not so great, he would rather die for the people, he just doesn't want to see a loyal minister like Wang Lei die on the battlefield in vain, but when he heard it in Wang Lei's ears, he couldn't help but feel inexplicable, the lord who loves the people like a son so much, what regret is there in death?

Wang Lei sobbed and said: "Lord, as a civil official, he should indeed put the people first, but as a minister, he should do his best to be loyal, the lord of the lord does not exist, Zhao Wei and other martial arts traitors have entered Chengdu, what is the future of Yizhou, the people will be in dire straits, Wang Lei would rather die than help the thief, please fulfill Wang Lei's loyalty, with blood and Mingzhi, and leave a name in history." ”

Liu Zhang looked up to the sky and sighed, ancient people, especially the Han Dynasty, all regarded loyalty as the highest moral standard, and people like Wang Lei regarded loyalty and righteousness as their lives, Liu Zhang knew that he could no longer persuade Wang Lei, so he could only give up, looked at the civil official behind Wang Lei, and said in a deep voice: "What about you, if you want to leave, leave." ”

More than a dozen civil officials were motionless, and those who wanted to leave had already left, Liu Zhang looked at the crowd, Gong Zhi was suddenly listed, Liu Zhang couldn't help asking: "Gong County Order, are you willing to stay?" ”

Gong Zhi originally didn't want to come to Dongcheng, but when Wang Ti was summoning civil officials and asking them to leave if they wanted, and those who were willing to stay and go to Dongcheng, Gong Zhi was terrified, because Liu Zhang impressed him too deeply, it was extremely insidious, he hid a knife in his smile, and he was still toasting you yesterday, praising you for your outstanding political achievements, and beheading you the next day.

Gong Zhi really couldn't figure out the situation, and he was only afraid that he would be caught by Liu Zhang's soldiers as soon as he raised his feet and fled, so he came to Dongcheng stupidly, thinking that when the rebels broke the city, he would find an opportunity to defect to Zhao Wei.

But now Gong Zhi looked at the corpses in the city, the soldiers who fought bloodily, and Liu Zhang, who was covered in blood, he was deeply shocked, this scene made him feel that Liu Zhang was not only cold-blooded, but also the real master, and there were so many people who swore allegiance to him.

The tragic scene at the head of the city, the seriously injured soldiers who did not retreat, gave Gong Zhi a great impact in his heart, at this time, this county commander, who had always been greedy for life and afraid of death, suddenly felt that death was not such a terrible thing.

Liu Zhang asked, Gong Zhi looked at the city, and was stunned for a while before replying: "Minister, willing to stay." ”

Liu Zhang turned around with his sword and looked out of the city, he didn't want to look at these people behind him, the rebels were about to attack the city, these people were just pushing the bones.

Wang Lei looked at Liu Zhang's back, and suddenly shouted loudly to the officials behind him: "Although we are civil officials, at this moment, we should also raise our swords to kill the enemy, and live and die with the soldiers." ”

Wang Ti said and picked up a fallen general's sword on the ground and rushed to the city, behind Gong Zhi was stunned for a moment, and he didn't know where he got the courage, and shouted: "Do you want to stand here as a prisoner?" ”

Saying that, he also picked up a sword and rushed out, the rest of the civil officials, you look at me, I look at you, and finally began to pick up the dead corpses on the ground, there are not many light weapons such as swords, some civilian officials waved their spears and rushed to the city, courage is infectious, the soldiers in front do not care about life and death, and these civilian officials also became soldiers in the blink of an eye.

The wide sleeves of the robe flew at the head of the city, Liu Zhang tightened the hilt of the sword in his hand, and his eyes couldn't help but be a little moist, there are many heroes in Shu, just because he is not the master of the Ming, it is a pity that he will die today, otherwise, he will inevitably take this group of loyal people to create immortal achievements.

At this moment, Liu Zhang suddenly saw that Zhao Wei's camp in the distance was in chaos, and killed a large army from afar, down the mountain tigers, and pounced on the rebel army, Lei Tong's cavalry had been killed seven or eight out of ten, and Deng Xian's infantry was also killed and wounded.

"Kill."

The first general held the sword high, the soldiers behind him were all brave and difficult to be, Zhao Wei's rebels fought a bloody battle for a day and a night, physical strength has reached the limit, as soon as the army arrived, only one round, Zhao Wei's camp fell, the army did not stop, rushed to the siege of the 20,000 rebels, the rebels were broken.

Wang Lei and the others stopped, quietly watching the changes under the city, and Fa Zheng, who was slowly picking up a sword on the ground, raised his head, looking at the strange army in front of him, his palms were sweating.

When I picked up the sword on the ground, Fa Zheng's heart was extremely painful, and it was difficult to find the Ming Lord, but why did my Fa Zheng just meet the Ming Lord, and I fell into a desperate situation, and God didn't leave me a chance at all.

And this army suddenly arrived, awakening the desperate Fazheng, Fazheng only hoped that it would not be Pang Xi's army, in that case, Xichuan would be in chaos, and the lord Liu Zhang said that he could not wait for three or five years, and he and the military generals loyal to Liu Zhang would have to wait.

But in any case, he can follow Liu Zhang to develop a career, and he doesn't have to die in the small city of Fucheng.

"Even if Cao Cao and Yuan Shao unify the north, what will happen? What if Jiangdong is impregnable? Could it be that with the countless heroes of Xichuan and the Ming Lord in the court, my Fazheng can't fight against you? "Fa Zheng's heart is full of pride and ambition.

But Liu Zhang knew where this army came from, and there was already uncontrollable joy on his face, and a huge "yellow" word on the banner of the army was shining, Liu Zhang let out a sigh of relief, and said softly: "Huang Gongheng, you finally didn't disappoint me." ”

Huang Quan took 20,000 Dongzhou soldiers from Guanghan to kill, Dongzhou soldiers were the three auxiliary refugees taken in by Liu Yan at the beginning, brave and strong, all of them were one as ten, Zhao Wei's army was strong at the end of the crossbow, and was scattered by the Dongzhou soldiers, and tens of thousands of troops were scattered in the field, like a group of chickens, ducks, pigs and dogs, and the Dongzhou soldiers were slaughtered.

"The last general Huang Quan came late, and put the lord in danger, and he deserved death." Huang Quan led the army to kill, the city gate creaked open under Liu Zhang's order, Huang Quan bowed down, and a group of civil officials saw that Liu Zhang's cronies led the troops to kill, they were all overjoyed, Fa Zheng's heart finally fell to the ground, the most dangerous moment finally passed, and the front will be a bright future in Xichuan.

Liu Zhang slowly returned the sword to the sheath and said to Huang Quan: "Now is the time to ask for guilt, this official order, 5,000 soldiers of Dongzhou soldiers will be stationed in Fucheng, drive out the scattered rebels in the city, 5,000 soldiers will sweep around Fucheng, and the rebels will be scattered, and the rest of the soldiers will pursue Zhao Wei with this officer, so that not a single rebel will slip through the net." ”

Zhang Ren stepped forward and said: "The lord has been supervising the battle all night, and the pursuit of the rebels will be handed over to General Huang and the last general." ”

Liu Zhang wiped his face with the water brought by the soldiers, and snorted coldly: "Zhao Wei's army besieged the city, killed thousands of my loyal and righteous soldiers, and even the Wenchen who followed the official was almost buried in Dongcheng, if Zhao Wei was not killed, it was difficult for the official to vent the hatred in his heart, and passed on my order, all the bloody soldiers in Dongcheng returned to the inner city to rest, and the Dongzhou soldiers followed me to pursue the rebels. ”
