Chapter 628: Erdu Fushui
After more than half a month, the Jing army had approached the area less than two hundred miles away from the White Emperor City, not only Liu Xuan's army, but even Yan Yan of the White Emperor City could not sit still, and transferred a part of the troops to the west of the White Emperor City to garrison in case the Jing army launched a surprise attack on the White Emperor City. Li Yan revitalized his troops and horses in Ba County, gathered tens of thousands of troops, and also moved closer to the direction of the White Emperor City to respond to the defense of the White Emperor City. As for the main force of the Sichuan army, Liu Bi has been following behind the Jing army, biting to the death, and now all the Sichuan army has only one purpose, that is, to defend the White Emperor City, and look for a possible opportunity to annihilate the enemy in eastern Sichuan.
Liu Ze had no intention of attacking the White Emperor at this time, not to mention that the White Emperor's defense was tight and invulnerable, even Liu Ze, who was stuck behind him like a dog's skin plaster, did not allow Liu Ze to storm the White Emperor City at this time.
If you want to revitalize the overall situation, Liu Ze has to take a detour within a larger scope, and now Liu Ze is like a magnet, attracting nearly eighty percent of the army in central Sichuan to the eastern Sichuan region, and west of Fushui, the Sichuan army is less than two percent, especially in Chengdu, the defense is empty, it is time to jump out of the encirclement of the Sichuan army, cross the water, and create some nervous air for Liu Zhang in Chengdu.
Liu Zeliu Zhuoying led 3,000 men and horses to stay in eastern Sichuan, prepared more drum banners and camps, and continued to entrench in the mountainous areas of eastern Sichuan, creating a false impression for Liu Bi, Yan Yan and others that the main force of the Jing Army was still in eastern Sichuan. Liu Ze made Zhuo Ying a suspicious soldier, but he would never fight against the Sichuan army, and interspersed as much as possible in a large area to avoid the main force of the Sichuan army. Liu Ze's request to Zhuo Ying was to hold out for ten days, and after ten days, the main force of the Jing army was approaching near Chengdu. The shape of the river will change dramatically.
After arranging this suspicious army, Liu Ze immediately led the main force to die down, turned west, and went straight to Fushui.
The middle of the river is mountainous, and everywhere you can see are rolling mountains, green pines and green bamboos. The vigorous and winding mountain road certainly brought inconvenience to the Jing army's march, but it also provided cover for the Jing army, and in a mountain south of Anhan, the Jing army unexpectedly encountered Wu Yibu, who was ordered to travel east.
Zhao Yun immediately asked Liu Ze for his life, whether to eat Wu Yi's more than 10,000 people in one fell swoop. Liu Ze shook his head, it was certainly easy to eat more than 10,000 people who ate Wu Yi, but in this way, his whereabouts were exposed. The gains outweigh the losses, so Liu Ze ordered the whole army to sneak and not have any conflict with Wu Yi's army.
In the two valleys in Anhan County, the Jing army marched from east to west, and the Sichuan army marched from west to east, and the two were only two or three miles away from the nearest point, and even the shouting could be heard a little louder. However, the verdant mountains and forests block the view, and only the occasional frightened birds can vaguely make people feel that there seems to be something strange in the mountains and forests.
Due to the lack of reconnaissance by scouts. When Wu Yi passed through this valley, he didn't realize that he and the god of death actually passed by, Wu Yi hurriedly rushed in the direction of White Emperor City, and this nameless valley didn't even leave a single impression on him.
Liu Ze's order quickened the speed of the march, and more than 40,000 troops were soon approached in Fushui.
The spring flood season has passed, and the water has returned to its former calm. The second crossing of Fushui is obviously much easier than the first crossing of Fushui, the inexhaustible bamboo forest in Shu provides sufficient materials for the Jing army, a few bamboos and a bundle of hemp rope, you can build a bamboo raft, simple and practical. The efficiency of the Jing army's crossing of the Fushui River has also been greatly improved. However, it only took one day to cross the water.
If you want to attack Chengdu, what stands in the way of the Jing army is Zizhong City. In line with the principle of the speed of the soldiers, the Jing army, which had completed the assembly on the west bank of Fushui, rushed straight to Zizhong with lightning speed, and surrounded the city of Zizhong with three layers of water and three layers of water.
The defenders in the capital are Meng Da and Deng Zhi, after Deyang lost Yang Huai and Gao Pei died, Meng Da also had relatives, compared to Deyang, the defenders were all 5,000 people, but the city defense in the capital was inferior, not as strong as Deyang, and the city defense facilities were much worse. But the fall of Deyang in just one day made Meng Da very afraid, for fear that Liu Ze would attack Zizhong after breaking Deyang.
However, the news from Deyang was good, Liu Ze's army did not go west, but went all the way to the east, heading straight to the direction of White Emperor City, and Meng Da secretly breathed a sigh of relief. But the easy days are not too long, less than a month has passed, Meng Da received a report from the Chinese army in his sleep, and when he climbed up the city tower to see, he couldn't help but gasp, the Jing army under the city is strong and strong, and has besieged the city of Zizhong.
Meng Dawan never thought that a few days ago, he heard the words of Wu Yi, the protector of the central capital who was passing by Zizhong and preparing to take office in eastern Sichuan, saying that he would annihilate Liu Ze under the city of the White Emperor, but in the past few days, Liu Ze personally led a large army to kill under the city of Zizhong, how not to make him frightened and afraid. But at the moment of the great enemy, Meng Da had no choice but to fight with all his strength.
Sun Guan once again took the initiative to ask for help, asking to take the lead in attacking the city, with this siege professional, Liu Ze naturally did not worry about not being able to get the capital to come to the city. Liu Ze's real intention to go west this time is to threaten Chengdu City, Zizhong City is just a small nail for him, but whether he can remove this nail in the shortest possible time is Liu Ze's biggest concern.
Just as Liu Ze ordered to prepare for the siege of the city, the Chinese army suddenly came to report, and someone outside the gate asked to see him. Liu Ze was secretly surprised and passed it in.
Not long after, the Chinese army led a person to the king's tent, Liu Ze regarded it, this person was about forty years old, with a long figure, a white face and a short beard, quite a bit of elegance, dressed as a Confucian scholar, natural and decent, saw Liu Ze, slightly bowed to each other.
"Who's under the feet? See what is the king's desire? Liu Ze saw that people were very unfamiliar, so he asked.
The Confucian priest saluted indifferently and said: "In the lower Fazheng, see His Royal Highness King Jing." ”
Liu Ze bowed slightly, he couldn't imagine that he was Fazheng. In the early years of Jian'an, due to the famine in the world, Fa Zheng and his friend Meng Da of the same county entered Shu to attach Liu Zhang, but Liu Zhang was not a good person, and after a long time, Fa Zheng became the commander of Xindu County, and then was appointed as a military lieutenant. Fa Zhenghuai did not meet him, and he was slandered by the people in the state, and he was very depressed. Because of this, Fa Zheng can talk to Zhang Song, who has the same experience. This time, Fa Zheng was appointed by Liu Zhang as the rescue envoy, responsible for liaison and planning for the defense of Deyang in Zizhong, due to the loss of Deyang, Fa Zheng was deposed by Liu Zhang, this time, it must be a plan.
Liu Ze deliberately said quietly: "I have heard the name of filial piety for a long time, I am disrespectful and disrespectful, I don't know that filial piety is here, but I was ordered by Liu Yizhou to come on business?" ”
Fa Zheng smiled and said: "Liu Jiyu is weak, jealous of the virtuous, loyal and upright people have no way to serve, virtuous people are exiled in the wilderness, this mediocre and incompetent lord, why should he serve it." Zheng Su Wen King Jing is benevolent and generous, loves the people like a son, but also eloquent, pure and lofty, takes Kuang to help the Han family as his own responsibility, relieves the people from hanging, supports the community, is also after the Han Chen, wants to serve the court and hates the court, knows that King Jing appoints people on the basis of merit, so he does not take the despicable identity of the common people, go to see King Jing, wear liver and gall, and is willing to serve the work of dogs and horses. ”
Fa Zheng was dismissed from his post by Liu Zhang for dereliction of duty, and he wanted to punish the crime, but fortunately everyone was exempted from punishment. In fact, the loss of Deyang was originally related to Fa Zheng, Liu Zhang was just angry and angry with him, which made Fa Zheng, who had never met with talent, even stronger. The dismissed Fa Zheng had nothing to do, so he came to Zizhong to talk to Meng Da, but unexpectedly ran into the siege of the Jing army. (Want to know more about Hanwa?)
