Although he had been prepared in his heart, Zhang Ren was still startled by the scene full of sores in front of him when he first arrived in Deyang, in addition to the west gate close to Fushui is still quite complete, the south gate and north gate of Deyang are already dilapidated, except for the ruins of the faintly recognizable city gate, it is really difficult to see the half of the original Deyang City, the east gate was destroyed more completely, and the entire east city wall was completely razed to the ground, and nothing else can be seen except rubble.

Zhang Ren was shocked, he remembered that the Jing army evacuated Deyang in a hurry, although he knew that the Jing army would definitely wreak havoc on Deyang City, but the destruction of Cheng Dù made Zhang Ren puzzled, he did not know what means the Jing army used in such a short period of time to destroy Deyang City so completely, you must know that completely demolishing a city is not necessarily more labor-saving than rebuilding a city, how did the Jing army do it in just one or two days?

In fact, when Liu Ze destroyed Deyang City, he didn't make much effort at all, except for a small part of the city wall was manually demolished, most of the city walls and city gates all used the form of gunpowder blasting, these rammed earth city walls as long as the gunpowder was buried in the critical place, boom, it collapsed completely, the reason why it was not completely razed to the ground, Liu Ze just cherished gunpowder, and didn't want to waste more, otherwise Zhang Ren wanted to find out the original site of Deyang City, I'm afraid it would be a difficult thing.

The original residents of Deyang City have all fled, in addition to destroying the city wall, the Jing army has a fire that burns down the houses in Deyang City, and now Deyang City wants to find a good house, which is probably a luxury.

This is not that Liu Ze is brutal, and he implemented the three-light policy for the people of Shuzhong, but the geographical location of Deyang is too important, connecting the east and west of Sichuan, and communicating the south and north of Sichuan. Since Liu Ze can't hold this central area, it must not fall into the hands of the Sichuan army and become an obstacle on the way forward of the Jing army, so completely destroy Deyang City, Liu Ze has no mercy, but other than that. The Jing army did not commit any crimes against the people in Sichuan, and even when they encountered the people who fled and starved, the Jing army took the initiative to lend a helping hand and took out a part of the tight military rations to help the people.

Zhang Ren didn't care about cursing Liu Ze's tyranny, and immediately commanded the army to enter Deyang City to repair and rebuild the city. Zhang Ren knew very well that the White Emperor City would definitely not be able to hold it, and when the time came, the troops of the Jing Army would move westward, and Deyang would definitely be the first barrier to defend Chengdu. Without a strong city, what can be used to defend Deyang?

But even if the soldier puts down the knife and gun, after all, he can't become a mason, Deyang City is not a simple renovation but a complete reconstruction, there are no skilled craftsmen and people, although Zhang Ren personally supervised on the construction site, the efficiency of Deyang's reconstruction can not be improved, more than ten days of work. It was only then that it was repaired to the height of Qi people, which was far from the original city wall.

Zhang Ren was worried. After several wars near Deyang, the people fled to the city of eight or nine, and it is obviously impossible to forcibly recruit the people to build the city, even if the craftsmen and people are transferred from Chengdu, it is difficult to quench the thirst of the distant water. Time, what Zhang Ren lacks most is time. He secretly wished that Wu Yi and Liu Bi could hold on to eastern Sichuan for a while longer, as long as they could drag Liu Zeduo to the White Emperor for three or two months, maybe Deyang City would have a chance to complete the construction.

But it backfired, Wu Yi and Liu Bi's army didn't even reach the edge of the White Emperor City, and was ambushed by Liu Ze in Qingyang Gorge. Wu Yi and Li Yan became prisoners, and nearly half of the 70,000 Sichuan army was lost in the Qingyang Gorge.

The shape suddenly became severe, and it was tantamount to a fool's dream to block the hundreds of thousands of troops of the Jing Army with only Deyang's half-pulled project. Zhang Ren knows this very well, now with only Yan Yan's 20,000 horses, he can't stop Liu Ze's crazy offensive at all, after the White Emperor City loses reinforcements, it is already difficult, and it is a matter of time before it is lost, and it will only be sooner rather than later. In addition to continuing to repair Deyang City, Zhang Ren must find another way to retreat from the enemy. So Zhang Ren, Liu Bi, Leng Bao, and Deng Xian gathered together to discuss the plan.

After several defeats, Liu Bi was already disgraced at this time, and he completely lost the arrogance when he first set off from Chengdu, although nominally Liu Bi was still Zhang Ren's top boss, but after Liu Bi arrived in Deyang, he had already handed over the command to Zhang Ren. To tell the truth, after experiencing these defeats, Liu Bi was impressed by Zhang Ren, Zhang Ren was like a god several times, Liu Bi couldn't help but be so frustrated, if he had listened to Zhang Ren's words earlier, why would he be where he is today. In this world, there are really people who sell regret medicine, and Liu Bi must buy a few pills to taste. So this time, he completely relinquished his power and obeyed Zhang Ren's words.

The more Liu Xuan is like this, the more Zhang Ren feels the pressure, at the beginning, it was the Sichuan army that took the initiative and ran with the Jing army in the east and west of Sichuan, but now the situation is different, the Sichuan army Jing army has changed its offensive and defensive situation, whether in terms of strength or momentum, the Jing army has already gained the upper hand, and it is not so easy for Zhang Ren to turn the tables at this time.

"The loss of the White Emperor is inevitable, Liu Ze has opened up the road to Yiling into Sichuan, it is estimated that there will be a steady stream of Jing troops entering Yizhou, now the enemy and us are attacking and defending, Deyang City has not yet been built, we want to block Liu Ze's attack will be very difficult, if we defend Deyang, Gong is afraid that we will not have the slightest chance." Zhang Ren said in a deep voice.

Leng Bao said: "Why don't we rescue the lord and ask him to send reinforcements again." ”

Zhang Ren shook his head and said: "There are only 10,000 defenders left in Chengdu, the defenders of Jiayin Pass and Brazil are to guard against Zhang Lu, the lord is afraid that he will not be able to send a single soldier, and now Deyang is the last line of defense in Sichuan, if he wins, he can also protect half of Yizhou from losing, if he loses, we will all die without a place to bury." ”

Liu Bi's face became extremely ugly, now Deyang's army of less than 60,000 is probably really the last mobile force in Sichuan, this defeat will really be the end of Yizhou. "In the opinion of the son, what will we fight?"

Zhang Ren's eyes were solemn, and he said in a deep voice: "Instead of sitting and waiting to die, it is better to win by surprise." After Liu Ze got the White Emperor, he will march from Ba County, there is a big road in the south of the mountain, the road is close and flat, there is a small road in the north of the mountain, the road is far and dangerous, I expect that Liu Ze will march this time to rely on the soldiers and generals, not for the plot to take the big road, Leng Bao Deng Xian and you two can set up a village on Shannan Avenue, according to the mountain danger of the enemy, can not fight with the force. I led a detachment of men and horses to march from the small road north of the mountain, went around to the rear of the Jing army, and burned its grain and grass. The army has no food, and the army's heart will be chaotic, and our army can take advantage of the situation to attack back and forth, and Liu Ze will be severely damaged. ”

Liu Bi, Leng Bao, Deng Xian even called the clever plan, so the allocation of soldiers and horses, Leng Bao Deng Xian each led 10,000 soldiers and horses to Shannan Avenue to stop the Jing army, Zhang Ren led 20,000 horses to ambush in the north of the mountain road, waiting for the opportunity to move, Liu Bi led the rest of the town to guard Deyang, and waited for Zhang Ren to successfully attack and send troops together to encircle the Jing army.

Starting from the White Emperor, Zhao Yun Yan Yan's front is invincible all the way, of course, this is all Yan Yan's credit, most of these guards are Yan Yan's subordinates, as long as Yan Yan shouts loudly under the city, the guards in the city are naturally looking at the wind and surrendering, and some guards who have other thoughts, take a look at the majestic banners of the Jing Army, how dare they dare to have the mind of fighting, and surrender in a shot.

After Baling, all the way around, it is not far from Deyang. Zhao Yun Yanyan led the army to walk Shannan Avenue, and sixty miles away from Deyang City was the camp of Leng Bao Deng Xian. Leng Bao Deng Xian is not under the control of Yan Yan, so naturally he can't call the two to surrender. So Zhao Yun and Yan Yan each led a group of men and horses to attack two camps respectively.

Leng Bao Deng Xian went out of the village to kill for a while, and returned defeated, so he closed the village tightly and couldn't defend it. The two camps are built in the middle of the mountain in a dangerous place, the trench is deep and strong, Leng Bao Deng Xian refused to defend the danger, desperately resisted, Zhao Yun Yanyan led the army to attack for a day, but also failed to take the two camps, the sky was already twilight, had to temporarily stop retreating, waiting for Liu Ze's army to come to help.
