The more Wen Ping chased, the more frightened he became, until he saw a narrow valley road in front of him where two mountains meet, and Wen Ping finally realized that he had fallen into the Sichuan army's plan, and he was about to order the withdrawal of troops, but it was too late.

After being suppressed in desperate fear for a long time, the Jingzhou soldiers who finally saw hope were out of control, and their courage came from the siege of the city for several days, regardless of life and death, and now this courage has turned into madness in exhaustion, so that they cannot hear any orders.

As soon as Yang Huai rushed into the canyon road, the long line of Jingzhou soldiers also rushed in, no matter how much Ren Wenpin shouted, it was useless, and the dark noise isolated his voice from the excited nerves of Jingzhou soldiers.

Wen Ping had to follow into the canyon road.

Wen Ping's intuition is right, when the army entered the canyon, there was already a team of soldiers and horses waiting for them in front, it was a phalanx of infantry, and a cavalry team ready to attack in the dark, exuding a devouring atmosphere in the night, countless torches appeared on the mountains on both sides, the fire was dazzling, Yan Yan, the general of the Sichuan army, stood on the top of the mountain and laughed, and said loudly: "Wen Ping'er, you have fallen into the plan of my master, quickly dismount and be bound." ”

"Shoot."

The mouth of the valley was sealed, the arrows rained down like locusts, the rockets were shot on the cloth armor of the Jingzhou soldiers, there were burning people everywhere, and the Jingzhou soldiers were in chaos, trampling on each other, and there were countless casualties.

The Jingzhou soldiers ushered in hope after despair for a long time, and at the moment when hope arrived, they stepped into death again, their nerves had collapsed, and even some Jingzhou soldiers faced the rain of arrows, laughing, like crazy, and staggered in the canyon.

Seeing that the Jingzhou soldiers were out of control, Wen Ping finally despaired, and worked hard for a long time, fighting to the death, and finally ushered in the annihilation of the whole army.

"Jingzhou's 100,000 army is over, Jingnan is over, Jingbei is over, how can I hire the sky."

Wen Ping threw away his spear, drew his sword, and slashed it around his neck.

"Heavens, why do you always look at the butcher of Yizhou, but refuse to open your eyes to look at the benevolent and righteous king of Jingxiang? There is no way in the sky, I don't blink to death, ah! ”

Wen Ping roared unwillingly, dragged the long sword, drew the sword and killed himself, and in his hazy eyes, he saw the Sichuan cavalry in front of him stepping on his horse, and the Jingzhou soldiers trampled on the horse's hooves and fell to the ground.

Wen Ping committed suicide, the Jingzhou soldiers were even more chaotic, the sound of the cavalry's hooves sounded, the Jingzhou soldiers no longer had the will to resist, and they abandoned their weapons and surrendered, leaving only some madmen to run in circles in the road, swallowing up the torrent of cavalry.

Liu Zhang silently watched everything in the valley in the high mountains, the overall situation had been decided, turned around quietly, and said to Yan Yan: "The rest is up to you." ”

"Yes." Yan Yan replied loudly.

Liu Zhang left with his own soldiers, and he heard Wen Ping's last scream, and Liu Zhang now has no feeling for such complaints.

He slaughtered all the way, and countless innocent lives under his subordinates, and Liu Biao led Jing Xiang, who was lenient and benevolent, and single-handedly laid the prosperity of Jingzhou.

The tyrant butcher trampled on the king of benevolence and righteousness, and naturally there was no way in the sky.

Liu Zhang smiled lonely, every time this kind of moment, Liu Zhang would remember the five words he wrote on Yunmengze Island, let out a long breath at the night sky, and returned to Jiangling City with an expressionless face.

Early in the morning, a soldier came to report that Wang Wei, the general of Jingzhou, led 10,000 horses to surrender.

Liu Zhang and Fa Zheng glanced at each other, both of them showed disbelief, and the first thought came to mind, to surrender.

But when Liu Zhang arrived in front of the city tower and saw the Jingzhou soldiers, he instantly dispelled this doubt, and the Jingzhou soldiers under the city tower were all no longer ghosts or ghosts, and they collapsed in the open space in front of Jiangling City, with no weapons in their hands and no armor on their bodies, but only a wooden stick, and those who could stand supported one by one.

No one believed that it was an army, it was clearly a group of refugees on the run.

Two teams of elite soldiers of the Sichuan army poured out of the city, dividing the Jingzhou soldiers into several pieces, Liu Zhang led his own soldiers out of the city, while walking calmly, while looking at the Jingzhou soldiers on both sides, their skin was all gray and black, their lips were white, their eyes were bloodshot, their pupils were narrowed, and the whites of their eyes accounted for most of the eye sockets.

Liu Zhang could almost imagine what kind of life these Jingzhou soldiers were living these days, and how they advanced to Jiangling City.

"Wang Wei, the general of the defeated army, see Uncle Liu Huang of Yizhou."

A man staggered out of the defeated army and gave Liu Zhang a full kneeling salute.

can only call him a man, and judging from his body, Wang Wei has no armor, no long weapons, no swords, only wears a close-fitting white clothes, maybe he has not replenished his physical strength for a long time, and even a sword has become a burden.

"Get up." Liu Zhang said lightly, "Can you tell me what's going on?" ”

Liu Zhang looked at the colorless Jingzhou soldiers, Wang Wei smiled bitterly, and said in his heart, don't you even know what you do yourself? But he swallowed the bitterness in his heart, reluctantly stood up straight, bowed and said:

"Report to Uncle Liu Huang, our army has been out of food since seven days ago, until four days ago, we have eaten all the things that can be eaten in the camp, and as a last resort, Wang Wei took these people to join Uncle Liu Huang, hunting and eating wild animals all the way, supporting each other, and hoping that Uncle Huang will take it in."

After Wang Wei finished speaking, he bowed down to Liu Zhang.

"What about the others? and Liu Qi's son. ”

Looking at the bleak situation of those Jingzhou soldiers, and seeing Wang Wei's sincere visit, the other Sichuan soldiers were all moved, but Liu Zhang still did not change his expression, and only asked in a faint voice.

"Some of them died, and the eldest prince starved to death with them, and the rest became beasts." Wang Wei gritted his teeth and said the last two words.

Liu Zhang knows what the beast refers to, those Jingzhou soldiers should have gone to rob the people, that is to say, Wang Wei, the nearly 10,000 soldiers, are all soldiers who have always insisted on surviving, but have never crossed their bottom line, when a person faces death, he can still maintain his moral bottom line, which is the most valuable character.

When the soldiers of the Sichuan army saw those dying Jingzhou soldiers again, from the initial pity and sympathy, it slowly turned into reverence, so they stepped forward and said: "Lord, you see that these people have come to surrender, then hurry up and give them some food, it looks very miserable." ”

"yes, yes, let's arrange a banquet for them."

"By the way, I still have a piece of braised pork left at noon."

Those Jingzhou soldiers who were leaning against each other looked at Liu Zhang blankly, Liu Zhang turned his head slightly to Yan Yan and said: "Organize the generals of the Sichuan Army to collect these 10,000 soldiers, and after the integration, give them food." ”

"Ah, this ......" Yan Yan glanced at those Jingzhou soldiers, a little embarrassed, if he waited for the collection to be completed, he didn't know how many people would starve to death, even if he didn't starve to death, Yan Yan couldn't bear it.

"Execute the order." Liu Zhang said coldly.

To be able to live under the threat of death, in the torment of hunger, has always had the belief to live, and not to take a step out of the moral thunder pool, such self-control is not available to everyone, and the 10,000 soldiers in front of them have it, then they are the strongest army in the world.

For such an army, Liu Zhang did not dare to underestimate them, even when they were dying.
