Chapter 47: Loyal Chengdu
This is the Yizhou Famous Army White Water Army?
Zhao Yun judged in his heart, and only felt that the other party was easier to fight than the Hu people in Liaodong.
And even though this group of Yizhou soldiers has become surrendered soldiers, their eyes are still full of awe and disbelief when they look at themselves and others.
Zhao Yun shook his head in his heart, only thinking that if this Yizhou soldier wanted to pull out to fight the Cao thief, it must be quite laborious to train.
Zhao Xiao felt that he had reacquainted himself with this Pang Xi Taishou.
Yesterday, he was still worried and his mouth was bubbling up, and he even discussed with his relatives in private whether Liu Zhang would survive if he surrendered.
Now he is flattering and offering the words of famous generals in front of Zhao Yun, and he regards himself as a minister of Uncle Liu everywhere, worrying about the big man.
Bah! Zhao Xiao took a sip in his heart, and then leaned in front of Zhao Yun to squeeze Pang Xi away, and said sternly:
"Since there is such a big victory, I wish to return to Jiangzhou as soon as possible to repay the victory for the general!"
Zhao Yun was silent, looked at the battlefield and was silent for a while, and said in a low voice:
"Yun has his own pro-soldiers, and he doesn't need Zhao Taishou to work hard...... There was just a reluctant request. ”
"My knights have followed me for years......"
"I will definitely find a beautiful place to bury properly!" Zhao Xiao patted his chest, only feeling that this was also his honor.
Zhao Yun shook his head: "There is no need to make a big deal, when the Cao thief is defeated, Yun will move the grave back to the north for them." ”
Zhao Xiao admired in his heart, and Zhengse agreed.
……
"Yide earns Gao Pei with a single knife, and Zilong rushes into battle to kill Yang Huai!"
"The Baishui Army and the Baishui Pass have been broken, and Liu Jiyu has really become a herd in Chengdu now!"
The two battle reports were sent to Jiangzhou City Government almost at the same time, and Pang Tong danced excitedly.
After Liu Bei read the two battle reports one by one with a smile, he said with a smile:
"Yide is quite anxious and wise, and Zilong is brave and undiminished, which is gratifying."
Pang Tongyi is serious:
"Does the lord know how General Zilong won a big victory?"
Liu Bei listened attentively.
"General Gai Yuanlong asked Zhang Yi to lead the army slowly, and he led a hundred cavalry to march into battle."
"If General Zilong personally commands the army, it will not be so easy to win!"
As he spoke, Pang Tong laughed by himself, and Liu Bei's smile froze on his face.
Rubbing his face, Liu Bei asked Pang Tong:
"In that case, what should Shi Yuan do next?"
Pang Tong came back to his senses, pulled out a page from the bottom of the bookcase and sighed:
"Before the Lord and the public benefited the state, I never thought that it would be so smooth."
According to the battle situation in Langzhong and Baishui Pass, Pang Tong deduced several situations:
"I thought about it before, the worst-case scenario is that General Zilong and the Baishui Army are holding each other, and General Yide can't attack Baishui Pass." ‘
"In this way, it is necessary for the lord to lead troops to suppress Chengdu, so as to break the deadlock."
"But now that we've won both, it's time to ......"
Pang Tong elaborated, and only felt that this configuration that should have belonged to Kong Ming was just one word:
Refreshing! ~
……
The scorching heat in Chengdu in early September has eased slightly, but this drop in temperature has not relieved the pressure on the city.
Fa Zheng was bored and looked at the tea in the cup in front of him, watching the tea leaves rise and fall in the hot water, and felt as if he had seen the fate of the current lord of Chengdu.
In fact, this is not the first time that such a quiet meeting has been made.
Initially, after Liu Bei occupied Jiangzhou City, the people present reached a consensus:
"The rebellious ministers and thieves from Jingzhou are approaching Yizhou!"
Then they dispersed, some went to advise the state pastor, some went to judge the situation, and some were as moved as Fa Zheng.
And as the war reports were sent to Chengdu one by one, the meetings in this teahouse became more and more frequent.
"The despicable and shameless thief of the country unites with the traitor Pang Xi!"
"The mat weaver and the shoe seller killed General Yang Huai."
"Liu Bei has already occupied Baishui Pass with heavy troops."
"Uncle Liu Huang is heading towards Chengdu." ‘
Fa Zheng watched coldly, but in his heart he was quite satisfied with Uncle Liu's methods.
Recently, Chengdu has become popular with a palm-sized script, which is small in size, has a small number of words, and is easy to carry and destroy.
Fa Zheng himself has collected a number of them privately, and basically each letter only says one thing.
"Liu Zhang's Bullying Pang Xi" and "Pang Xi is Good at Governing the People" are the most recent, probably talking about Pang Xi's help to Liu Zhang to pacify Zhao Wei's rebellion, and now Liu Zhang's kindness will take revenge.
Fa Zheng didn't believe in this thing, but he knew that the people in Chengdu absolutely believed it: can it be fake if it is written on paper?
Some other texts are more heart-wrenching: "Liu Yan Rebellion", "Liu Zhang Forced Zhang Lu to Rebel", "Liu Zhang Secretly Surrendered to Cao Thief", "Liu Yan Killed the Imperial Court Envoy" and so on.
Although the people don't quite understand these old things that have been turned out, the people have said about these eye-catching things such as Zhang Lu's mother and Liu Yan:
I have a friend who loves it very much, hates its shortness and hates its little.
Therefore, the people came up with logic from their own perspectives: This Uncle Liu Huang is going to come to the state pastor to discuss the law!
Although notices were also posted in Chengdu, and Liu Zhang angrily denounced them as slander, compared to the few notices, everyone had a few slaps in their pockets, which can only be said to be a drop in the bucket.
turned a deaf ear to the noise in the teahouse, Fa Zheng knew that they were noisy on the surface, but in private they would still try their best to leave an impression in front of Uncle Liu Huang.
During this time, there were constantly servants of the big clan who secretly tied ropes and slipped out of the city without a trace, most of them to find Liu Jingzhou.
Rumor has it that the defenders in the east of Chengdu have already bought two houses for the benefit of the city.
Fa Zheng was quite envious, but also quite happy.
Chengdu has been dead for too long, and I don't remember when this kind of interesting thing happened last time.
Oh yes, Mr. Xianhe who I saw last time was quite funny, I wonder if I can talk to Uncle Liu Huang for myself?
And, I wonder when Uncle Liu Huang will arrive in his faithful Chengdu?
Fa Zheng wanted to see through it, but Liu Bei walked more slowly.
It took only ten days to get from Jiangzhou to Langzhong, then five days to Zitong and another eight days to Fucheng.
Mianzhu guarded Li Yan and surrendered, causing Liu Bei to go slower next.
On the one hand, it is to take the initiative to slow down, and on the other hand, it is also because there are indeed a lot of people who take the initiative to show their loyalty.
Many Haoqiang who came to join him even brought their own dry food to take the initiative to guard, and Liu Bei's momentum became more and more powerful for a while.
After Mianzhu is Luocheng, Liu Bei doesn't have any special ideas, because the guard will be Liu Xun, the son of Liu Zhang.
With this relationship, Liu Bei still felt that it was better not to go to Ruocheng to ask for it, so he simply bypassed.
As a result, before he reached Ruocheng, Liu Xun had already been tied up and placed in front of Liu Bei.
Liu Bei blinked his eyes and looked at the big clan of Ruocheng who had "Praise me" written on his face, and finally gave some reward and promise to send him away.
How easy is that? Liu Bei only felt that it was not very real as in a dream.
Until Liu Xun's angry scolding made him come back to his senses.
"Gagged." Liu Bei shook his head, then carefully looked at Liu Xun and said to himself:
"It's a good gift."
Liu Xun, who was tied up sturdily on the ground, trembled when he heard this.
Many of the scripts that Liu Xun thought of for himself in his head did not come true, and he was guarded by a team of soldiers to be sent to Chengdu, and the leader of this team was Jian Yong.
"We will not fail in our mission!" Jian Yong arched his hand, full of spirit.
"Xianhe should not take advantage of his tongue." Liu Bei was not at ease to advise.
Luocheng is already very close to Chengdu, so it only takes one day to run with all his might, and Jian Yong has already seen Chengdu.
Liu Xun was picked up by Liu Zhang's people, and Jian Yong was taken directly to Liu Zhang.
Jian Yong had never seen Liu Zhang before, so he was able to take a closer look in front of him at this moment.
The biggest feeling is that the extravagance is compelling, the brocade robe is crowned with beads, the face is wide and less fat, and the air is weak and less majestic.
It's more like a rich man than a state pastor.
And Liu Zhang's attitude is also very peaceful:
"Liu Xuande is bound to win Yizhou?"
Jian Yong bowed without humility or arrogance:
"The lord wants to raise the Han to beg the thief, so he wants to take the Han land and reject the thief."
Liu Zhang snorted:
"It's a good means, for example, everyone today says that I, Liu Zhang, am a disloyal, unrighteous and unfilial person!"
Jian Yong hesitated for a moment, and finally slowly got up and raised his head and said:
"Isn't it?"
"Liu Yizhou eats Hanlu as a Hanchen, and now the country is in danger and does not want to serve the country, but blindly seeks to get rich and noble to the national thieves, has the state pastor forgotten his surname? Isn't it unfaithful? ”
"The father is the monarch of the family, the monarch is the father of the country, and the monarch and father are the same, and now the monarch's father is in trouble and the state pastor turns a blind eye, isn't it unfilial?"
Liu Zhang's face turned red, Jian Yong raised his head, and he was ready to be pushed out and beheaded.
But Liu Zhang finally fell into the chair and whispered:
"Then family affairs should not be publicized to the world......"
Jian Yongzi didn't hear it, those small pieces of paper were done, but whether he admitted it or not was another matter.
After some hesitation, Liu Zhang still took the initiative to ask:
"If so...... If so......"
Jian Yong was empathetic: "If the state pastor is willing to elect Xuande Gong as the Yizhou pastor, then Xuande Gong will naturally not invade Chengdu and not disturb the people of Yizhou." ”
Liu Zhang still looked at Jian Yong, and Jian Yong also smiled:
"The general's seal, family wealth, mansion, Xuande Gong also does not take a penny."
Liu Zhang breathed a sigh of relief and only said three words:
"That'll be fine."
This is basically finalized.
The next step in finalizing the intention was to go through the procedure, so the letters were exchanged first, and then the envoys were exchanged.
In the end, Liu Zhang took the initiative to go out of the city to welcome Liu Bei and go through the procedure.
So at the end of September, Liu Bei, escorted by Zhao Yun, officially entered Chengdu.
The people welcome to watch the fun, after all, in the various news they have seen before, this Uncle Liu Huang is fair and just. Don't you have to take a good look at what it looks like?
Liu Bei, who was standing in the car, smiled very reluctantly, he carefully looked at the low houses, the potholed roads, and the turbid city river, and couldn't help but sigh: This is Chengdu?
Although I didn't expect it to be as prosperous as in later generations, why didn't it even feel as good as Gangneung City?
Liu Bei fell into deep self-doubt:
What about Liu Jiyu's governance here?
Pang Tong, who was in the same car, was also full of emotion:
It took me two lifetimes for Pang Shiyuan to come to Chengdu?
Fa Zheng was also watching the excitement on the side of the road like the people, and when he saw this scene, Fa Zheng added in his heart:
Uncle Liu Huang of the Great Han arrived in his faithful Chengdu today.
