Zhang Congzhe was ceremoniously welcomed into the Tang army camp by Cheng Zhifang, and Zhang Congzhe was a little flattered by this situation.

When they came to Cheng Zhifang's Chinese army tent, the other generals of the Eleventh Army left, leaving only Cheng Zhifang and Zhang Congzhe, and Cheng Wuting by his side.

Zhang Congzhe knew that time was pressing, so he went straight to the point: "General Cheng, I haven't seen you for many years, but you are still so tough, which is enviable. This time I came to do it for the surrender of Bashu to the Tang State. The Empress Dowager is still a little apprehensive about surrendering, and the Empress Dowager hopes to ......."

Before Zhang Congzhe could finish speaking, Cheng Zhifang raised his hand and interrupted him, saying, "Zhang Dianke, long time no see, don't worry, you take a look at this letter first, this is sent by the king quickly."

As soon as Zhang Congzhe heard that it was a letter from Wang Rong, he quickly took it and read it carefully. Cheng Wuting brought tea to his father, and Cheng Zhifang drank tea leisurely.

"King Tang is really wise, General Cheng, humble and courageous, can you please write a letter of guarantee, and bring it back to the city with this letter, and show it to the Empress Dowager, Qin Zongzheng, and Yang Xiang."

Cheng Zhifang listened to Zhang Congzhe's words, nodded indifferently, and said, "According to Zhang Dianke's meaning, I will write a letter of guarantee by hand."

Cheng Zhifang's straightforwardness at this time surprised both Cheng Wuting and Zhang Congzhe, and when Zhang Congzhe happily returned to the city with the letter of guarantee and Wang Rong's letter.

Cheng Wuting spoke, "Father, why did you write this guarantee so easily?"

Cheng Zhifang smiled and said, "What, are you afraid of accidents? There's nothing to be afraid of, if Zhang Congzhe doesn't say it, I will take the initiative to mention it."

Cheng Wuting asked with a puzzled expression, "This ......?"

Cheng Zhifang smiled mysteriously and said, "You'll know later."

Zhang Congzhe returned to the city with Cheng Zhifang's guarantee and Wang Rong's handwritten letter, went straight to the palace, and met the Empress Dowager Zhang, Qin Feng, and Yang Shu.

Unsurprisingly, the city gate was opened that day, and all the Bashu flags on the city wall were removed. The Empress Dowager Zhang issued the Edict of Surrender of Bashu in the name of the little emperor Qin Qi, announcing the demise of the Bashu court.

Cheng Zhifang also kept his promise, and the Tang army rotated the garrison troops every day, only defending the vital places in the city. The Bashu army in the city went out of the city and surrendered, and Cheng Zhifang watched the old, weak, sick and disabled Bashu join the army, and directly sent money to dismiss him.

May 20 of the first year of the Tang Dynasty

Wang Rong, who was in the Tang military camp on the Baochuan Road, received information from Bashu.

"Good! Good! Okay!"

Wang Rong said three good words in a row, and said to Li Sujie and the others: "The Bashu court has surrendered, and Bashu has been owned by my Datang!"

"Great!"

When everyone in the tent heard the news, they were excited, with Yizhou, Yongzhou, Liangzhou, Jizhou and Bingzhou, Datang is the largest country in the Central Plains.

Wang Rong said loudly: "Spread this news throughout the army, and at the same time spread this news to me, so that Li Song Lao'er knows his situation."

"Phew!"

The clay bowl containing the gruel was thrown to the ground by Li Song, and water stains, rice grains and fragments were everywhere. He said angrily, "This is fake news delivered by the pseudo-Tang! Absolutely! It's the same as a few days ago when they said that Bashu Pass was captured by the Tang army."

The generals in the tent disagreed with this, and at first, they also thought that the Tang Army was scaring them. However, the logistical supply has been cut off, and in ten days, they have not received a grain of rice or a single grass. People are eating less and less food, and porridge is getting thinner. The war horses were even more out of forage and black beans, and they began to get sick one by one.

"Report! ——」

Just when Li Song was hysterical, a scout rushed into the tent and reported loudly: "Generalissimo Qiqi, Yangping Pass is lost!"

This news is no less than a bombshell, the generals in the tent were surprised, Li Song stepped forward quickly, lifted the scout up, his eyes breathed fire, and said hatefully: "How is it possible? It's only been a few days? Why did Yangping Pass lose it?!"

The scout hurriedly said, "Fu County was besieged by the Tang army, and General Xiqi led his army to support from Yangping Pass, but was ambushed by the Tang army and lost his troops

Fold will. Later, the emperor's edict of surrender came from Bashu, and General Xiqi led his army to surrender to the Tang army."

When Li Song heard this, he was taken aback, and he hurriedly asked, "What about the edict? Where?"

The scout hurriedly handed over a copy, and Li Song grabbed it, spread it out and read it.

Looking at the familiar big seal in the lower left corner, Li Song knew that this edict should be true. When he saw the familiar handwriting, Li Song was completely deflated, it was the handwriting of the Empress Dowager.

"Generalissimo!"

When the Bashu generals saw their generalissimo like this, they didn't understand that all this was true.

At this moment another scout rushed into the tent and shouted, "Generalissimo! The Tang Army is here!"

Li Song said with a cold gaze, "Who is here?!"

The scout replied, "The person who came claimed to be the second son of the Marquis of Linjin, the military commander of the Tang State Wuwei Army, the governor of the Governor's Mansion, and the general of Wude Zhonglang, Zhang Yunshu."

Li Song sneered, "Hmph, what a long name. Let him in!"

Zhang Yunshu didn't have the courtesy of Zhang Congzhe, Zhang Yunshu walked into Li Song's tent, looked at Li Song who was sitting on the top, he saluted, and said, "Zhang Yunshu, the special envoy of the Tang State, has seen the generalissimo."

Li Song's eyes were cold, his tone was cold, and he said, "What are you sending you here for?!"

Zhang Yunshu reached out and touched his sleeve, but this action caused a "sonorous" sound, and the Bashu generals in the tent pulled out the ring head knife on their waists.

Zhang Yunshu smiled contemptuously and said, "Don't be nervous."

As he spoke, he took out an edict from his sleeve, and a Bashu general stepped forward to take it and hurriedly sent it to Li Song.

Li Song didn't even look at it, and said, "I already know the content of this edict, your pseudo-Tang is indeed very powerful, I am really curious, how did you enter Bashu from Guanzhong."

Zhang Yunshu looked at Li Song and said with a smile: "Generalissimo, let's take a look, this edict was specially written to you by my aunt. And my Tang army didn't enter Bashu from Guanzhong."

Li Song spread out the new edict and looked at the words on it, this edict was indeed written specifically for him. In the edict, the Empress Dowager strongly advised Li Song to surrender and not to do useless struggles, because the people of Yongguo had died enough.

Li Song looked at Zhang Yunshu and said curiously, "You didn't enter Bashu from Guanzhong, how did you get there?" Fly by?"

Zhang Yunshu smiled and said, "We entered Bashu from Longxi County."

"How is this possible?"

"This can't be?"

"There is no road from Longxi to Bashu at all, let alone a large army, how is it possible?"

Zhang Yunshu looked at the surprised Bashu generals, and said, "The king once said: There is no road in the world, and when there are more people walking, it becomes a road. There may be no road from Longxi to Bashu, but I, a Tang soldier, have stepped out of a road with my feet. Surprised, surprised?!"

Li Song looked at Zhang Yunshu and said helplessly: "The Empress Dowager's private seal on the edict is true, we will abide by the edict and surrender to the Tang King."
