Chapter 37

Xu Shu expressed his position in a letter to Liu Feng and Huang Quan, saying that he was willing to protect Wu Yi and Li Yan, and that the two were only the lives of the whole family, and there was no other conspiracy. At the same time, he also suggested that Wu and Li first send Empress Wu and Liu Chan to Ruocheng as hostages, in exchange for Liu Feng to enter Chengdu with confidence - 500 soldiers is too little, 5,000 soldiers are too much, let's make a discount, you bring 3,000 people over.

Huang Quan is upright, although his wisdom is not lost to others, but it is basically a trick to play, and rarely involves conspiracy, so after reading Xu Shu's letter, he believed it on the spot, and persuaded Liu Feng: "What Xu Yuanzhi said is yes, His Royal Highness will do it immediately, if it is delayed for a long time, the Wei people will come again, I am afraid it will be difficult to resist it." He immediately suggested that Zhao Yun escort Liu Feng to Chengdu.

Liu Feng shook his head: "Zilong should guard the city with Qing, and this foundation is also my foundation, and it cannot be moved lightly." Huang Quan suggested again that Ma Chao should cooperate, but Liu Feng still shook his head: "Ma Mengqi is the most trustworthy, don't be lonely!" "He is proud of his martial arts, and he only has Empress Wu and Liu Chan as hostages, and he has 3,000 soldiers and horses, even if he is a little risky, with his own bow and horse skills, he should be able to save his life without worry. So he only led Guan Ping, Guan Xing brothers, as well as Liao Chun, Zhao Rong and other generals, and led the army to Chengdu Gate.

At this time, Empress Wu and Liu Chan had already gone to Ruocheng as hostages, and Huang Quan was under the guardianship of Zhao Yun, thinking that with these two hostages in hand, everything could be expected. This is the idea of an honest man, in fact, Wu Yi and Li Yan are not worried about the lives of the two of them at all - the death of the first master, the time is still shallow, and Zhao Yun, Ma Chao and others have only been subordinated to Liu Feng for a few months, even if we kill Liu Feng, you really dare to kill the queen mother and the emperor - well, you don't admit that this is the emperor, then after all, it is also the blood of the first emperor - right? Don't you have to serve Liu Chan as the main one?

Besides, Liu Feng entered Chengdu. Wu and Li naturally didn't dare to show up. But they made the shooting reinforcements meet each other. said that everything was ready to stop, so he asked the prince to go to the temple to make an oath. In fact, Wu and Li had already laid an ambush around the temple, and as soon as Liu Feng arrived, Taichang stepped forward to stop him and said: "In front of the temple, that is, the prince is not allowed to carry troops." Liu Feng took a look at it, Wu and Li were on the steps, and they all had no swords. With empty hands, his personality was already rough, so far he thought that victory was in sight, and thought: "When you can get it and combine all the soldiers and horses, you will kill these two thieves!" The sins of the two thieves are obvious, even the Danshu cannot be completely alive! ”

So he unloaded his sword and went up the stairs, with only a dozen people guarding him. Wu and Li stepped forward to thank him and asked Liu Feng to enter the hall first, Liu Feng strode in, but only entered the door. Just heard a "click", and the door of the temple was closed!

By this time, it will be too late to know the plan. Listening to the sound of a gong, the back of the palace embraced Zhang Ren and other hundreds of elite Shu soldiers, and in an instant, Liu Feng and his followers were all cut into meat sauce. Immediately cut off Liu Feng's head, and shouted out of the hall: "The first emperor left his will, passed on the throne to his son, and Liu Feng entered the succession with a foreign surname, and he rebelled, and there is no shame!" Now but the head of the owl, regardless of the servant, he will be spared from death! ”

Three thousand soldiers and horses, most of them have laid down their weapons - the leaders are all hanging, and there is still some motivation to resist. Only the Guan brothers and Liao Chun were not convinced, that is, they wanted to kill Wu and Li with weapons, but in the end, because they were outnumbered, they were killed by Zhang Ren and Ling Bao. As for that Zhao Rong, he turned around in time and knelt on the ground to surrender.

Zhang Ren immediately suggested: "Please ask the general to go out of the city immediately to collect his army." Wu Yi was still a little vague: "There are still 20,000 troops in Yucheng, that is, Liu Feng's head is facing each other, may you listen to me?" Li Yan said with a smile on the side: "I have already made arrangements, and the general can go with confidence." ”

It turned out that Li Yan had long asked the imprisoned Ma Dai to write a letter to persuade Ma Chao to surrender, and it was Wang Fu Guoshan, the messenger they originally sent to Wudu, who helped him deliver the letter-Wang Fu did not dare to reveal his identity, for fear of being killed by Liu Feng, so he had been pretending to be a soldier, so he hid beside Ma Chao. Li Yan said that as long as you help take down the city of Ma, General Ma, no matter what happened before, the promise of the hussar general at the beginning is still valid, and your Ma brothers can also be reunited.

Therefore, as soon as Liu Feng entered Chengdu, when the news came, Ma Chao and Wang Fu immediately stole open the south gate of the city and let the Chengdu army, which had been ambushed nearby, enter. The Chengdu military general is Yan Yanye, who is more than seventy years old, and said to Ma Chao as soon as he entered the city: "Kill Liu Feng today, the general will come to take the money, and the general should greet him in person to atone for his previous sorrows." Ma was overjoyed, so he rode his horse to welcome Wu Yi.

Immediately, Yan Yan went straight to the government office and surrounded Huang Quan. Huang Gongheng was shocked and asked Yan Yan, "Are you waiting for a harmless prince?" Do you want to trap the queen mother's mother and son to death? Yan Yan sneered: "Gongheng is also a Ba person, Bashu has its own master, why do you want to do the Wu family?!" ”

Huang Quan was really shocked at this moment, and shouted: "You have no desire to wear Liu Zhenweiye? In the past, the emperor entered Shu, and you all turned their backs on Zhenwei and followed, and now they rebelled against the Han Dynasty and returned to Zhenwei. Shiyun: 'What is it to not die if people have no manners?' Thinking that Liu Bei entered Shu at the beginning, Huang Quan was the chief of Guanghan, held on behind closed doors, and refused to surrender, until Liu Zhang was defeated and came by handwritten letter, then he cried loudly, and then opened the city gate. Liu Bei also specially summoned him because of this, wanting to see what this "loyal minister" looked like, and as a result, he talked with each other earnestly, and was greatly admired, so he made an exception and reused it. Therefore, Huang Quan is qualified to scold Yan Yan, saying that you abandoned Liu Zhang and surrendered to Liu Bei, and now you have given up Liu Bei and want to carry Liu Zhang out as a banner, you are too shameless!

Yan Yan pouted: "The heroes of the first emperor, we will have no two hearts if we follow them." However, now that the first emperor has died, Liu Feng is violent, the second son is weak, the Wei people are pressing, and Shuzhong cannot be protected. Therefore, we wear the old master to welcome the Wei master, and the ears of the people of Bashu - do you think that Wu Yi and Liu Feng can control the Wei people and the whole of Shu? The trend of the times, go with the flow of wisdom, otherwise, it will be in vain, and disaster will be in the country! ”

Huang Quan was not good at his tongue, but he was immediately speechless by Yan Yan, and he couldn't help sighing: "You do it yourself, and it has nothing to do with me." "Go back to the inner room and sit down, that means: if you want to capture me, come and capture, if you want to kill me, I will kill, now my heart is like ashes, I don't care about anything, everything just depends on the will of God."

Not only Yan Yan was poor in Luocheng, but at this moment in Chengdu City, Wu Yi went out of the south gate, Zhang Ren and Ling Bao led their troops to surround Li Yan, and then helped Liu Zhang, who was under house arrest, into the carriage and galloped to Li Yan's mansion. Only then did Li Yan know that he was smart in vain, but he fell into the calculations of others, and couldn't help but smile bitterly: "I have long said to the general, the Shu people are not credible, and he does not listen to me, resulting in this defeat!" But he still couldn't help but climb the ladder and stand on the wall, beckoned Zhang Ren to speak, and asked him: "On the battle array, the general is resourceful, and there is nothing to do in the court." I don't know who I am today? ”

Your traps are layered one after another, and they are like a thunderbolt when I think about it, and I feel terrible when I think about it...... Who is so capable and so seamless in planning that he actually kept me in the dark, but invisibly became your accomplice? If you tell me, I won't regret dying.

Zhang Ren Yangtian laughed and said: "Zhengfang boasts of wisdom, and now it is also like this? Tell the truth, those who seek the king, Xu Yuanzhi and Peng Yongnian! ”

When Li Yan heard this, he just said, if these two goods join forces, I may not be their own......

In the romance novels of later generations, Xu Shu is a loyal minister, but in fact, he may not. According to historical records, Cao Cao's southern expedition, Liu Bei gave up Fancheng and went south, and Cao Jun "won the concubine", so Xu Shu "resigned from the first lord (Liu Bei) and pointed to his heart and said: 'Those who want to work with the general to plan the hegemony of the king are also in this square inch.'" Now that I have lost my mother, I am in a mess, and it is useless, please say goodbye from now on. 'Then he said to Cao Gong. Because the old lady was arrested, his filial son was forced to go to Liu Bei and return to Cao Cao, which was helpless, and there was no "Xu Shu entered Cao Ying-without saying a word" after that. Xu Yuanzhi has always been in Cao Wei's high position as the right middle general and the middle of the imperial history, if he always has a non-violent and non-cooperative attitude, is it possible to be the minister?

On this timeline, Xu Shu did not return to Cao early because the old lady was arrested, and he was quite loyal to Liu Bei, but the problem Liu Bei had already hung up, and he was really disgusted by Wu Yi, Li Yan and others, so Qin Mi ran to take advantage of his tongue, and Xu Yuanzhi immediately got on the thief ship. Previously, he wrote a letter to Liu Feng, guaranteeing that Wu and Li had no two hearts, ostensibly because he was persuaded by Qin Mi and was willing to help Wu and Li, but in fact, even if it was a "vote for name" to join the Shu Gang.

As for the real leader of the Shu Gang, that is the famous undisciplined Peng Yongnian in the history books. Among the Shu people, he was once cleaned up by Liu Zhang the most ruthlessly, and even "tongs" as his subordinate, and Liu Bei was also the most trusted after entering Shu; But this person has always been arrogant and self-contained, even more arrogant than Fazheng, and he is not good at the relationship between colleagues, so he was jointly suppressed by Jingzhou Shi and Dongzhou Shi. In the original history, it was Zhuge Liang who repeatedly secretly told Liu Bei, saying that Peng Yi was "ambitious and ambitious, and it was difficult to be safe", which caused Liu Bei to gradually alienate him...... Qing is outside, I am inside, and the world is not enough. Ma Chao immediately denounced it, and Peng Yixuan was executed.

In this timeline, Peng Yi was also alienated by Liu Bei in his later years, and under his anger, he immediately joined the disciples, planning to change his master to serve in the name of supporting Liu Zhang. Although this person has a low character, his ability is extremely outstanding-otherwise Liu Bei would not have trusted him at the beginning - he joined forces with Xu Shu and secretly plotted, no wonder Li Yan was about to fall into the trap.

At that moment, Li Zheng was like ashes, and when he returned to the inner room, he committed suicide by hanging himself. Zhang Ren, Ling Bao, as well as Yang Hong, Fei Shi, Wang Mou, He Zong and others of the Shu Gang immediately took control of the entire Chengdu City, and imprisoned Liu Bei's side concubine and second son Liu Yongquan - this is still the condition that Xu Shu put forward when he first got on the thief ship, otherwise the Shu people would have killed them all.

Besides, Wu Yi fell into the trap of Peng Yi and others, and listened to what Zhang Ren said, so he left Chengdu and headed for Ruocheng with only a few soldiers and horses-the large army had already let Yan Yan take him out to get the wolf, and he didn't need too many guards around him-Ma Chao also rode to meet him, but halfway through, the two had just met, and suddenly there were ambushes all around, and arrows rained down......
