Zhang Lu quickly whipped his horse and soon approached Yang Bai's military formation. Nan Ye didn't dare to chase any further, and controlled Bai Zhen to start slowing down. If there was no Yang Song as the internal response, Nan Ye would have killed Zhang Lu outside the city even if he took the risk at this time, but at this time, he didn't have to take this risk again.

Zhang Lu, who was fleeing for his life, didn't know that Nan Ye had slowed down, and thought that he was chasing after him. Zhang Lu didn't dare to look back, but shouted at Yang Bai, who was leading the troops: "General Yang, quickly intercept Nan Ye and save me!" ”

Yang Bai looked at Zhang Lu with a cold look in his eyes, he picked up his gun and rode his horse in the direction of Zhang Lu, and said, "The lord should panic!" The end will also be. ”

Zhang Lu couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief when he saw Yang Bai step forward, but just as their two horses were intersecting and pedaling, Yang Bai suddenly stabbed Zhang Lu with a gun. This shot came very suddenly, Zhang Lu was not skilled in martial arts, and he was defenseless, and he was stabbed in the chest by Yang Bai at that time. The power of the two horses hedged so that Zhang Lu's close-fitting soft armor did not play any role, and the spear head entered from the front and came out from the back, stabbing Zhang Lu in half.

"You...... Why ......" Zhang Lu stared at Yang Bai in disbelief, and asked in a low voice with blood foaming in his mouth.

Yang Bai snorted coldly and said, "The winner is king." If you can win this battle, I will not betray you. ”

Zhang Lu was stunned when he heard this, seemed to understand something, raised his head and glanced behind Yang Bai and at the head of the city, and then fell down and whined.

Yang Bai did not lie, when Yang Song initially persuaded him to launch a mutiny, Yang Bai did not agree, because Zhang Lu had too many followers, from the officials to the common people, many of whom were loyal believers in the Wudoumi Sect. Yang Bai suspected that as soon as he mutiny on the front foot, he would be killed by Zhang Lu's loyal followers on the back foot.

Yang Song saw that Yang Bai did not obey and said to him: "If today, the princes are in dispute, and the winner is the king." If the lord can defeat Nan Ye and dominate the world, we might as well follow. But if the lord can't, sooner or later he will be killed by Nan Ye. I should plan to order the lord to fight a fair battle with Nanye, the lord wins, we should help him wholeheartedly, the lord loses, how about we surrender to Nanye national teacher? ”

It was his brother Yang Song's words that moved Yang Bai, and it was precisely because of Nanye's victory today that Yang Bai found that the morale of the army behind him was low, so he broke out and stabbed Zhang Lu under the horse. If it was placed on weekdays, Yang Bai's move would definitely make the fanatical believers in the army tear him apart, and at this time, those fanatical believers were immersed in the blow of Zhang Lu's failed fighting method. They lost their faith and became extremely numb, turning a blind eye to Yang Bai's assassination of Zhang Lu.

These soldiers turned a blind eye, but it was impossible for the Yan Garden in the city to turn a blind eye. When he saw Yang Bai stabbing Zhang Lu and dismounting, he glared at Yang Song angrily and asked, "Why did Yang Bai assassinate the lord?" ”

Yang Song sneered and said, "If Zhang Lu loses, this city will be lost." I'm waiting for my brothers to join the country! Come on, tie up Yan Pu! ”

The cronies and soldiers on both sides who had been prepared for a long time rushed up after hearing Yang Song's order, and tied up Yan Pu. Although Yan Pu also had cronies, he was not prepared, and he was also taken down by Yang Song before he had time to react.

Yan Pu scolded: "The thief who betrays the lord will not die well!" One day I will kill you and avenge the Lord. ”

Yang Song's eyes widened when he heard this, and he took out the sword on his waist and stabbed it into Yan Pu's chest in front of him and said, "I didn't want to kill you, I handed it over to the national teacher, maybe in the future, I will have to be a minister in the same hall." But if you don't let me, I can't keep you! ”

Yan Pu was pierced by a sword and was full of remorse, and he couldn't imagine that he had planned for a lifetime, but today he died at the hands of the villain. He spewed out a mouthful of blood at Yang Song, and then died of anger.

"Zhang Lu is dead, and the rest will not be investigated! Put down your blades and welcome the national division into the city! Yang Song and Yang Bai shouted to the soldiers in the city.

The soldiers and the people saw that Zhang Lu had been defeated and the generals had surrendered, so where was there any reason to resist? They put down their weapons one after another, and opened the city gate to welcome Nanye into the city. In this battle, except for the death of Zhang Lu and the annihilation of the sacrificial wine army, there was no casualty among the people of Nanzheng Shitu.

After Nan Ye entered the city, he put up a list of Anmin and rewarded the soldiers. Yang Song and Yang Bai have been rewarded for their meritorious contributions to the city. After the two of them retired happily, Ma Yunluo snorted coldly beside Nan Ye: "What is the use of keeping such a traitor?" ”

The generals echoed Ma Yunluo's words, and they all disdained Yang Song as a person. Guo Jia spoke out at this time to explain for Nan Ye: "Although Yang Song betrays the Lord to seek glory, even though he is despised, he rewards and punishes the party to show the majesty of the national teacher. Although Yang Song and Yang Bai have their backs to Zhang Lu, they have no merit for the national teacher, how can they kill without permission? ”

Zhao Yun said: "If the two of them can carry Zhang Lu today, they may betray the national teacher in the future, and the national teacher should be cautious in employing people." ”

Zhang Song smiled under the tent: "The national teacher has the skill of knowing people, and he will not be taken advantage of by villains." ”

Nan Ye smiled when he heard this: "The villain is difficult to prevent because everyone doesn't know that he is a villain, and now Yang Song's temperament is well known, just be careful." What's more, the retribution of the Heavenly Dao cycle is not happy, and maybe he will die in a different place in the next day. I'll just sit and watch. ”

When the generals heard Nan Ye say this, they didn't say anything more. Sure enough, three days later, the general Zhang Wei threatened to avenge his brother Zhang Lu, and led his troops to rush into the mansions of Yang Song and Yang Bai, and beheaded the two. Subsequently, Nan Ye executed Zhang Wei for disobeying military orders and killing heroes without permission. As for whether Nan Ye connived at Zhang Wei's actions, it is unknown.

After Zhang Wei's death, the matter in Hanzhong was settled. Among the generals under Zhang Lu's command, only Yang Ang and Yang Ren, who had previously followed Zhang Wei to attack Jiameng Pass, surrendered to Nanye after Zhang Lu's death and saved their lives, and the rest of the civil and military with surnames, including Zhang Lu, died in the internal fighting, and those believers of the Wudou Rice Sect also became staunch supporters of the Science Avenue after Nanye's victory, which has to be said to be an irony.

After Nanye obtained Hanzhong, the north and south of the territory were connected, and from north to south, they were half of Xiliang, Sili, Yizhou, Jingzhou, Jiaozhou and Yangzhou. If Xiliang is divided into Liangzhou and Yongzhou, and then Guangzhou is separated from Jiaozhou, Nanye will occupy the land of seven states and become the first prince in the world, replacing Cao Cao's previous position. As soon as Liu Zhang descended and Zhang Lu died, only Nan Ye, Cao Pi, Liu Bei, and Sun Quan were left among the princes competing for hegemony in the Central Plains.

When Nan Ye returned from Hanzhong to Jiaozhou, Sun, Cao, and Liu also got the news that Nan Ye had captured Yizhou and Hanzhong, and the princes of the world couldn't help but be shocked. Just when the princes from all walks of life were worried and worried that Nan Ye would take advantage of the situation to sweep the world, Nan Ye chose to return to Jiaozhou, which made the three princes breathe a sigh of relief at the same time.

It is not unreasonable for Sun, Cao, and Liu to be so careful. There is no need to say that Cao Pi has a grudge against Nan Ye. Although Sun Quan had formed an alliance with Nan Ye before, Zhou Yu did not calculate the two allies of Nan Ye and Liu Bei, and even had murderous intentions, so he naturally had to take precautions. Liu Bei was calm, believing that Nan Ye Renyi had always been allied with him and would not attack him, but Zhuge Liang had to guard against it.

The so-called politics means that there are no eternal friends and no eternal enemies, only eternal interests. When Cao Cao's family was dominant, the three families united to resist Cao. At this time, Nan Ye and Cao Cao's positions were reversed, and Sun, Cao, and Liu said it even if they were allied against Nan.
