Yang Huai, Gao Pei and Zhang Ren have a very good relationship, they both intend to surrender to Liu Bei, looking forward to his coming day and night, but they don't want to really go back to Jingzhou now, and they are unhappy in their hearts. Yang Huaixian said: "A few days ago, Brother Zhang had a letter with the two of us, hoping to help Uncle Huang succeed. I don't want Uncle Huang to want to return to Jing, does Brother Zhang know about this? ”

Zhao Shu knew that it was this person who wanted to force Guan Feng to death, and he was extremely angry in his heart, but he didn't dare to show it on his face, so he whispered: "Shu also knows the good intentions of the generals, and often advises my lord not to return to Jingzhou." However, my lord was afraid that Xichuan would be difficult to take, so he insisted on not complying. ”

Gao Pei Nai laughed and said, "I see, Uncle Huang is too worried." If you are willing to take Sichuan, my brothers and I will immediately switch on and off to welcome each other; The general of the county is Brother Zhang, and the imperial uncle still does not need to use swords and soldiers to take it down. At that time, it will not be far from Chengdu, and the soldiers will come to the city, Liu Jiyu will be weak, and most of them will raise the city to surrender. Why is it so difficult? ”

Zhao Shu's face was very grateful, but he sighed in his mouth: "Shu also advised the lord like this, but Uncle Huang didn't believe it." Shu had no choice but to come to see the two generals, and if the two generals could persuade my lord, then the first credit of Sichuan would be the two generals. The two were overjoyed and were about to agree, when suddenly a sergeant came to report, and Liu Yizhou sent a messenger to come. Zhao Shu knew that there was an inconvenience, so he hurriedly hid behind Huang Zhong and Guan Ping.

After a while, when he saw the envoy coming in, Yang Huai opened his mouth and asked, "The lord has sent your envoy here, I don't know what is important?" The messenger replied: "Zhang Song turned his back on the Lord and defected to the enemy, and he has been exterminated by the Lord Lord. The lord was afraid that Liu Xuande would know about this and raise troops to invade the territory. The subordinate officer came and ordered the two generals to strictly guard the pass, and not to let go of a single soldier in Jingzhou. Liu Xungongzi has brought a large army to help, and it will be soon. ”

Hearing the news, the two generals looked at each other again, and asked the envoy to retreat and rest, but the envoy took his leave on the grounds that he was on official business and did not dare to stay for a long time. Now that the internal should have been lost, Liu Bei has the heart to retreat, Zhao Shu was afraid that the two generals would change their minds, and hurriedly came out and said: "The disaster of the two generals is not far away. ”

Gao Peida was puzzled and exclaimed: "Why did Mr. say this? Zhao Shu replied: "Yongnian is leaking, and the imperial uncle should have nothing left, and he will return to Jingzhou." How did the two generals deal with themselves? Yang Huai immediately said: "Uncle Huang has returned to Jingzhou, what do you have to do with the two of us?" Zhao Shu guessed that the two wanted to smooth out the matter, and sneered: "Uncle Huang doesn't take Yizhou and returns, but the matter of the two generals betraying the master, can it be written off?"

The two glanced at each other, but they had the same mind, Yang Huai immediately smiled and said: "Zhang Song is the master, what does it have to do with the general?" If the general gave the head of the gentleman to the lord, not only would there be no harm in fighting terrorism, but there would be a reward. ”

"You dare." Guan Ping couldn't bear it anymore, so he wanted to draw his sword and kill him. Zhao Shu hurriedly stretched out his hand to stop him, and said with a smile: "Although Zhao Shu's head is heavy, I am afraid that he will not be able to clean the charges of the two generals." If you want to be loyal to Liu Zhang now, I'm afraid it's too late. Seeing that the two of them were puzzled, he said again: "Dare to ask the general if my lord can raise troops to attack?" ”

"No, I didn't."

Zhao Shu asked again: "Has the general ever asked Chengdu for help?" ”

"Never."

Zhao Shu immediately sneered: "Then why did Liu Jiyu send his son Liu Xun to personally command the troops?" Yang Huai thought about it and hesitated: "Gongzi is here to help us." Seeing his expression, Zhao Shu was already a little hesitant, sneered a few times, and said, "How unwise is the general?" Rescue soldiers is like fighting fires, if you really want to rescue the two generals, why would you send troops from Chengdu to the nearest General Zhang? ”

Gao Pei asked in a lost voice when he heard this: "What does Mr. mean, Gongzi is here for a certain two?" Zhao Shu didn't answer, but said, "Why is that envoy so anxious to go, isn't he afraid in his heart?" The two generals are at their own discretion. ”

Both of them were shocked, not knowing whether what Zhao Shu said was true or false, but said, "Can Mr. retire temporarily?" Rong and the two discussed for a moment. Zhao Shu was afraid that the two would change their hexagrams, so he hurriedly persuaded: "If the two generals are really willing to surrender to my lord, they can go to the camp with Shu tomorrow to persuade the imperial uncle." When the emperor saw that the two generals were going in person, he would definitely change his mind and capture Chengdu instead, which would be beneficial to the two generals. How can we still be negotiated? ”

Yang Huai was still a little unsure, and asked, "If two people go, can they really persuade the imperial uncle?" Zhao Shu nodded resolutely and said: "Exactly, my lord is not unwilling to take Xichuan, I am afraid it will not be easy, the two generals will be able to make peace of mind." The two of them also understood the reason, and they didn't know if Liu Zhang was really suspicious of them, so they didn't dare to take risks, so they said: "A certain two people originally wanted to demote the emperor's uncle, since Mr. said so, I will go with Mr. tomorrow to persuade the emperor's uncle." Zhao Shu was even more overjoyed, and after spending so many lips and tongues, he finally got the two out of the customs.

Early the next morning, Yang and the second general of the high school brought two hundred soldiers to meet Liu Bei with Zhao Shu. After walking for twenty or thirty miles, I saw the smoke and dust billowing in front of me, and a large army was coming, and I looked at the banner in the army, which was Liu Bei's military horse. And all the people were overjoyed, and they hurried forward to meet them.

In front of the army, Zhao Shu glanced at Guan Ping, and Guan Ping raised his knife and beheaded Yang Huai under the horse. Gao Pei was shocked, and was also stabbed in two by Huang Zhong's father. Zhao Shu immediately shouted: "Yang Huai, Gao Pei has ill intentions and intends to assassinate the emperor's uncle." Now the law has been subdued, and all the armies will not die. "When the Sichuan army saw that the main general was dead, and the army on the opposite side arrived, they all bowed to the ground and surrendered willingly.

Liu Bei was in the army, and when he saw the people in front of him, he knew that it was Yang, and the two Gao people came to surrender, so he hurriedly went out to greet him in person. Walking in front of him, he saw that the second general was dead, and he couldn't help but feel slightly stunned, but scolded Zhao Shu and said: "These two people deserve to be punished for their crimes, but at this moment, they are sincere to surrender, and they are afraid of killing the heart of Xichuan general." ”

Zhao Shu, Huang Zhong, and Guan Ping hurriedly turned over and dismounted, and fell to the ground to plead guilty. Since the second general was dead, Liu Bei didn't say much, and ordered the two hundred soldiers to go first, captured the Fushui Pass, and the Sichuan army surrendered, so he rewarded the three armies at the pass and feasted the generals. Liu Bei forbears for many days for Tuyizhou, and now he can finally raise troops to seize it, and he is in a very comfortable mood, and he keeps raising his glass to drink with the generals.

After a few rounds, everyone was drunk, Liu Bei raised his glass again and asked with a smile: "Today's meeting, can you be happy?" As soon as Zhao Shu heard about Guan Feng's death, he opened his mouth and replied: "How can you be happy when you lose your beloved?" Liu Bei was displeased, and asked Pang Tong again. Pang Tong also replied: "It is fun to destroy the country of people, and the soldiers of the unbenevolent are also." ”

Liu Bei immediately said angrily: "If you are not happy, you can retreat quickly." The guards next to him saw that both of them were drunk, and for fear of displeasing Liu Bei again, they hurriedly stepped forward to take the two out. Huang Zhong and Guan Ping will also retreat one after another. Liu Bei suddenly said to himself: "The most affectionate person must be loyal? ”
