Chapter 180: Zhang Song
Li Zhe saw General Zhang Ren jump off the city tower, Li Zhe sighed: "Such a loyal and fierce general, why do you want to die for Liu Zhang's foolish loyalty"
"Burial of Zhang Ren, the army enters the city"
After Li Zhe's process, Li Zhe was in Fuling City, and the defenders in the city surrendered with weapons, about 20,000 defenders, and now Li Zhe's army has expanded by 20,000, a total of 190,000 troops.
Zhuge Liang said: "Lord, our army must quickly take Ba County, and then we can drive straight into Chengdu and Hanzhong."
Li Zhe smiled and said, "I don't plan to attack Ba County."
Zhuge Liang was puzzled when he heard this
At this moment in Chengdu, Liu Zhang has learned that Linjiang and Fuling have been broken, Liu Zhang asked the ministers what countermeasures, one of them stood up and said: "Lord, our army can ask Cao Cao for help to relieve the power of my Yizhou" The person who spoke was Huang Quan.
Then someone came out and said: "Lord, this Li Zhe can use one day to break through the Fuling of my Yizhou natural danger protection, then Ba County does not need to say much, in a short time, Cao Cao's army is impossible to arrive, and even Cao Cao has to think about it for a day or two, so the lord cannot be guaranteed" The person who spoke was Zhang Song.
Fa Zheng came out and said: "Lord, what Lord Zhang said is reasonable, Cao's army is thousands of miles away from our army, even if Cao Cao does not delay time, he will have to go around to Yizhou, Jing Chu will definitely learn about it halfway, if he intercepts it halfway, there is no chance to reach my Yizhou land."
Liu Zhang said anxiously: "If you can't ask for help, there is another good way, filial piety."
Fa Zheng said: "Lord, we can only surrender to Jing Chu, so that we can keep you, Lord."
Liu Zhang said angrily: "Come here, the Fa is correct, this person is demagoguery, pull it out and correct the Fa on the spot"
Don't drive Zhang Song out of the queue and say: "The lord is slow, listen to Weichen's words"
"Say"
Zhang Song said: "Lord, have you ever thought about what will happen if you wait until Li Zhe enters Shu? The first person Li Zhe wants to kill may be you, the lord, and we are all courtiers, maybe we surrender to Li Zhe, we will definitely use it, whether it is self-protection or official position, there is no loss, and the lord you are not, you are the person Li Zhe wants to kill the most."
"Fa Zheng is so straightforward, and he is also the heart of the protector of the lord to say this, if the lord surrenders, then Li Zhe has no reason to kill you, and the worst ending can also allow the lord Liu family to continue the bloodline and live a prosperous and rich life, but if you wait until Li Zhe comes in, then the ending may harm the nine clans, maybe the lord"
Liu Zhang listened to Zhang Song's words, Huang Quan didn't say anything, Liu Zhang looked at Huang Quan's expression, waved his hand to the two guards beside Fazheng, and then said to the ministers: "You go down first, let me be alone and quiet, and give you an answer in the afternoon."
Liu Zhang was lying alone in his bedroom, and his favorite concubine was also massaging Liu Zhang, Liu Zhang said to the concubine: "You said that if I am not the lord of Yizhou one day, will you still serve me like this?" ”
"Concubines won't leave you"
Liu Zhang touched the concubine's face and said, "I'm too tired, I want to rest for a while, you go and accompany the sisters."
Liu Zhang was lying alone in the room, and he had been pondering whether he really wanted to surrender, and if he surrendered, whether he could talk to Li Zhe about the conditions.
If the conditions cannot be negotiated, will it be .........?
Liu Zhang finally made up his mind, surrender, as for the conditions or anything, it is useless, as long as he can keep his family, it is a great luck.
Liu Zhang's letter of resignation was given to Zhang Song, saying: "This book is my surrender table, you take him to Fuling to see Li Zhe, as long as he doesn't kill me and my family, I promise to surrender him."
Zhang Song went to Fuling with Liu Zhang's letter.
Li Zhe said to Zhuge Liang: "Kong Ming, the envoy may arrive today."
Zhuge Liang said: "Our army has not moved in the past few days, and the old general Yan Yan of Ba County has not sent troops to help, it seems that Liu Zhang has the possibility of surrendering."
As he was talking, the guard entered the door and said, "Lord, there is an envoy Zhang Song who claims to be Liu Zhang outside the door to visit the lord, do you want him to come in?"
Zhuge Liang smiled and said, "Please let him in."
Li Zhe remembered that when he watched the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, Zhang Song asked Pang Tong to be killed, and felt that it was a pity that this person died, and he had heard that Zhang Song was very ugly, and he also wanted to see how ugly he was.
After Zhang Song came in, he said, "Zhang Song has seen the King of Chu and Mr. Kong Ming."
Li Zhe at first glance, I damn it, this person is ugly and a little sorry for the audience, but there is no change on the surface, and he said: "As a don't drive, I am also a minister of Yizhou, give me a seat"
Zhang Song felt very embarrassed at the moment, and then Li Zhe said: "Ziqiao, I heard that Yizhou is not a great sage, and I am really fortunate to meet it today."
Zhang Song felt in his heart that the King of Chu was not as strong as rumored, and he was very easy-going when he rushed to this person, and then said: "The King of Chu smiled."
Li Zhe asked: "This time, Liu Zhang has something important, right?"
Zhang Song got up and took out a bamboo slip from his cuff and said: "My lord's meaning, all of it is on it, please let the King of Chu see it himself."
Li Zhe opened the bamboo slip and looked at it, and then said: "It seems that Liu Zhang is a smart person, smart people can live a little longer, this is true."
Li Zhe said to Zhang Song: "You can go back and resume your life, saying that I agreed to Liu Zhang's conditions, and I also gave Liu Zhang 10,000 gold, so that he and his family can live a life without worrying about food and clothing."
Zhang Song left with a smile after worshipping, in fact, Zhang Song had already had the heart to judge the master, because Liu Zhang was incompetent and mediocre, such a person didn't matter in the prosperous times, but in the troubled times, it is impossible to just protect yourself, and the world in the troubled times is that if you kill others, you will let others kill. This is the truth that history has given blood to all people.
Li Zhe said: "Kong Ming, did you see anything just now?" ”
Zhuge Liang said: "This person has a bit of a problem, can he still be happy when he sees that he is about to lose his country, but he can see that his speech and demeanor are very casual, and it doesn't look like he is pretending, so it doesn't look like a fraud."
Li Zhe said with a smile: "This person doesn't like Liu Zhang, he has long wanted to let the land of Yizhou be led by a capable person, open up the territory, and become a generation of famous ministers."
Zhuge Liang said with a smile: "The lord's words made me suddenly, it turns out that this person is unbearable."
