"Back to Chengdu."
……
The black soldiers shouted slogans and ran frantically from both sides of Liu Qian. Although everyone was very tired, hope still shone in their eyes.
More than 4000 people have the cover of night, and it is impossible for them to be killed by the other party.
"There is a reward for capturing Liu Qian alive, everyone charge me." Liu Feng pointed his long sword, and the soldiers behind him rushed like a tide.
Fazheng gave Liu Feng the task of capturing Liu Xun alive. He originally wanted to catch Liu Xun by surprise, but he was still alerted by the opponent. Now he can only hope that Liu Xun will not escape during the scuffle.
Zhang Fei rushed into the enemy's formation straddling Wuzhi, feeling full of oppression as if Shura had come into the world. The Zhangba Snake Spear was rolling like a dragon in his hand, and he stabbed left and right and almost no one could get close to him. His gaze never left Liu Qian.
"Zhang Fei, your opponent is me." Liu Gui yelled and approached him, with more than a dozen guards beside him, they rushed towards Zhang Fei together with him.
Because Zhang Fei rushed too fast, he was accidentally entangled by Liu Gui, and the other party's guards immediately surrounded him. From a distance, Zhang Fei was surrounded by more than ten riders.
Liu Feng was shocked when he saw this, and immediately gave up Liu Xun and moved towards Zhang Fei.
"Uncle, I'll help you." Liu Feng shouted while running.
"Bastard, I don't need any help. Capture Liu Xun."
Zhang Fei turned his head and yelled angrily, the snake spear in his hand kept spinning, and Liu Gui's guards fell to the ground in a blink of an eye.
"Wei." Liu Feng could only turn his horse's head around.
"Everyone work together to kill this black guy." During the melee, Liu Gui's body was seized by the guards. At this moment, he found that Liu Xun was gone, so he let go of his hands and feet to fight Zhang Fei.
Zhang Fei raised the Zhangba Snake Spear and flicked away Liu Gui's long spear, and the swords and guns of several guards took advantage of the situation to greet Zhang Fei behind him. At this time, he didn't care about morality.
"Go away." While resisting Liu Gui, Zhang Fei turned around and shouted like a tiger roaring.
Chapter 3 and Six: The Strange Letter from Lantian
Zhang Fei's howling pierced through the noisy shouts of killing, and the cavalrymen who sneaked up behind were thrown to the ground on the spot because their horses were frightened, and two of them fell to the ground with ruptured eardrums and convulsed.
On the battlefield in Jingzhou, Zhang Fei used this method to kill his opponent many times. How has Yizhou soldier seen such a scene?The subordinates who were originally loyal to Liu Gui instinctively retreated.
Soldiers to soldiers, to generals.
A tough opponent like Zhang Fei is not something that miscellaneous fish can sneak attack on.
Liu Gui was stunned at this moment, he turned his horse's head and tried to retreat, but the horse beneath him seemed to be frightened, and he staggered like he was drunk when he ran.
Zhang Fei turned around and saw Liu Gui's cowardly appearance. He saw his legs clamped between the horse's belly, Wu Zai received the signal and ran wildly in the dark, and Zhang Ba Snake Spear was flying through the air with flames.
Liu Gui looked back while whipping the horse's buttocks, seeing Zhang Fei chasing after him, his heart sank into the valley like a bungee jump.
While his eyes were wide open, the Zhang Ba Snake Spear pierced through his left waist, and soon his brain lost consciousness as if the electricity was cut off.
Zhang Fei shook the snake spear vigorously, and Liu Gui's body was thrown under the horse.
"The whole body is so stubborn, it's really vulnerable." Zhang Fei glanced at him disdainfully, and followed Liu Feng forward.
The next morning, the smoke cleared.
On the streets of Luocheng, groups of soldiers resting together can be seen everywhere.
After several months of high-intensity siege, Liu Bei finally occupied the important town north of Chengdu at the cost of tens of thousands of casualties.
The fire in the city has been extinguished, there is not much food left in the granaries, and the people are afraid to go out after closing their doors. Liu Bei strictly prohibits looting of the people's property in the city, and arranges generals to lead soldiers to patrol everywhere.
Zhuge Liang and Fa are looking forward to the south gate, Zhang Fei and Liu Feng slowly returned from the south after dawn.
Seeing that the two were not in high spirits, Zhuge Liang guessed that Liu Xun hadn't caught him.
After questioning, I found out that Zhang Fei killed Liu Gui. In the melee of Liu Xun's thousands of soldiers and horses last night, only a hundred or so cavalry followed him and fled to Chengdu.
Zhuge Liang encouraged him, and then said to Fazheng: "Since Liu Xun escaped last night, Chengdu has to find a way to attack. I asked about surrendering troops in the city. Liu Zhang still has [-] elite soldiers in Chengdu. Such a strong attack, our losses are too great..."
"Well, the city of Chengdu is strong, with sufficient food and grass, and the storming was not done by wise men..." Fazheng replied.
"I advise my lord to occupy the surrounding counties and villages of Chengdu first, and then make plans for them after they are isolated and helpless. You and Shi Yuan have many wonderful plans, so you should think of good strategies to help your lord." Zhuge Liang said.
Fazheng nodded, "Liu Zhang is gentle and cowardly. I will first write a letter to describe the situation in detail, hoping to persuade him to open the city and surrender."
After Liu Bei rested in Luocheng for three days, the army marched towards Chengdu.
I wanted to take advantage of the situation to occupy the surrounding counties and towns to isolate Chengdu, but found that this work had already been completed by Zhao Yun.
After Zhao Yun and Liu Bei joined forces, the total force reached more than 4, which is still more than the defenders in Chengdu.
After setting up camp, Liu Bei called Zhao Yun to him and asked, "Zilong has worked hard all the way. Have you encountered any difficulties and obstacles during this trip?"
Zhao Yun clasped his fists and replied, "Young master Hong Fu, Jiang Yang, and Qian Wei are all going well, because the military adviser warned not to advance lightly, so I fought steadily on the road, slowly conquering counties and counties, and did not arrive in Chengdu until July.
After arriving in Chengdu, Liu Zhang couldn't hold out, so Yun Ku had nothing else to do but occupied the surrounding counties and towns, hoping that Liu Zhang could not resist sending troops to fight, but this happened accidentally. "
"Is Liu Zhang really looking at it like this?" Zhuge Liang asked curiously.
"There were two troops sent out on the way, but there was no movement after being repelled." Zhao Yun nodded.
Liu Bei laughed loudly: "Zilong is a true general, and the three armies in Jingzhou are going well, but we spent a long time in Luocheng, and the backup soldiers are not as good as you."
Zhuge Liang argued: "My lord, don't make such a comparison. Liu Zhang is not good at governing Shu, the soldiers are alienated, and the people are alienated from morality. Only the Jingzhou three-way army can take advantage of it. Luocheng is guarded by his son Liu Qian. The soldiers dare not obey. ?”
"What Kong Ming said is true." Pang Tong nodded in affirmation.
"Indeed." Fazheng also echoed.
Liu Bei stretched out his index finger and pointed, "The three military advisers are of one heart and one mind, but Xiao Zhi's letter of persuasion to surrender has been sent to the city for a few days, and now there is still no news. How can this Chengdu be taken?"
"Sun Tzu said, 'The law of using troops is to surround them with ten, to attack with five, to divide them if doubled...'Our troops are only [-] more than in the city, but our food and grass are not as abundant as in the city. The best strategy is to use tactics to seize the city." Fazheng said, stroking his beard.
Liu Bei affirmed: "Chengdu is too far away from Jingzhou, Ziyu's supplies and transportation are difficult, and it is unwise to waste food and grass with Liu Zhang..."
Pang Tong smiled leisurely: "What's the point of mere food and grass, Chengdu is now an isolated city, other than this city, the Lord can take it all."
"This must not be the case. Since we entered Shu, we have not committed any crimes against Minqiu. How is it different from Cao's bandits if we send troops to rob grain?" Liu Bei shook his head hastily.
"My lord misunderstood Pang Tong's meaning. I meant that if Liu Zhang couldn't hold out, we could surround Chengdu and garrison the fields. In less than half a year, the city would run out of food, and we would surely open the city and surrender." Pang Tong analyzed.
Fazheng asked: "Chengdu's treasury is sufficient, and there are only [-] soldiers and horses in the city. The food reserves can last for three years. Why did Shi Yuan assert that the food is exhausted in half a year?"
Pang Tong laughed and said: "Although Liu Zhang has only [-] soldiers and horses, how many people in Chengdu are there? How many days can they eat food in their homes? If Chengdu does not surrender within half a year, there will be civil strife. If we use some tricks..."
"An arrow book like Luocheng's?" Fazheng was overjoyed.
Seeing that both Pang Tong and Zhuge Liang nodded, Liu Bei immediately adopted Pang Tong's suggestion, stationed soldiers and horses outside the city to garrison fields on the spot, and sent generals to the surrounding counties to govern, completely isolating the entire Chengdu.
On the contrary, Fazheng's arrow books that disintegrate people's hearts have become the only source of news for the outside world.
In November of the 18th year of Jian'an, Liu Bei besieged Chengdu for nearly two months. Lantian sent Hu Ke to take a boat and transfer a carriage, bringing in [-] carts, gold, silver and copper coins.
Liu Bei thought it was military rations at first, but he didn't expect that twenty carts were full of property. He looked at Zhuge Liang and the others and asked curiously, "What does Ziyu mean?"
Hu Ke took out two letters from his pocket, handed one to Liu Bei and the other to Zhuge Liang, and explained: "Mr.'s intentions are all in the letter."
The letter to Liu Bei wrote: After the war, rewards should be carefully calculated, too much is too late, it is difficult to build the hearts of the people, but easy to destroy the hearts of the people.
Liu Bei was stunned after reading it, Lan Ziyu asked me to award the reward cautiously?But now that Chengdu has not been struck down, is the money coming too early?But where are these twenty cars enough?
"Military Master, what did Ziyu say?" Liu Bei noticed that Zhuge Liang's letter paper was very large.
Zhuge Liang shook his head and turned the paper over. It turned out to be an unfinished Yangtze River Newspaper, the tenth issue they hadn't received yet. The content of Jingzhou on the right had been filled in, but the page on the left was empty.
Everyone looked at Hu Ke together, what did Lan Tian mean?
Chapter 3 and Seven
Hu Ke explained: "Several mineral deposits have been excavated in Guiyang County in recent years, among which copper, iron, gold and silver are all available. These twenty carts of property are left over from Zhibing Jia. The master said that if it is not enough, it will be replenished next year."
Liu Bei was at a loss when he heard this, and Zhuge Liang sighed: "If it weren't for the fact that the army is fully equipped, it would be impossible to maintain such a low battle loss. The Quanling workshop consumes a lot of gold and silver, and Ziyu can squeeze out gold and silver to send to the army. He Really thoughtful..."
"Even if there are mines in Guiyang County, it is very difficult to mine. It is not easy to keep the workshop running normally. My lord, please don't let him give it away. Let's find other ways." Zhuge Liang added.
Liu Bei nodded, "The military adviser is right. You can't put all the burden on Ziyu. It's beyond my expectation that I can continue to transport food."
Zhang Fei heard that Lantian sent people to Chengdu, so he ran over excitedly to meet them in the tent, but he happened to hear a few people talking, so he leaned forward and asked suspiciously: "Since there are mines in Guiyang County, let Ziyu find more people." Dig, then give more to the soldiers."
Hu Ke replied with a smile: "Mr. once said that the wealth of a country is like a mine, and it can last for thousands of years or even longer if it is exploited and used in a controlled manner. If it is discovered blindly and disorderly, the mine may collapse. It's not good for the country."
"Is mining so particular?" Zhang Fei scratched his head to express his understanding.
"Ziyu's words are thought-provoking, but now that Chengdu has not been breached, it is not time to reward meritorious deeds, let's talk about the Yangtze River News." Zhuge nodded and said.
Liu Bei fell into deep thought, no wonder Ziyu told me to plan carefully, he was telling me not to award rewards blindly?Go back and have a good discussion with several military divisions.
Hu Ke continued to answer: "You can know the world's affairs by looking at the Yangtze River Daily. Last year, I won the trust by sending newspapers to Liu Zhang many times. That's why the lord was in danger. It was sent back to Jingzhou in time. The previous issues were also sent to Chengdu through various channels. The tenth issue It’s what Mister used to destroy the city.”
"Lan Ziyu broke the city with this thing? Did my ears hear it wrong?" Zhang Fei looked bewildered.
"Mr. said that several military advisers must have a solution." Hu Ke explained.
Liu Bei frowned, "Ziyu must have planned for a long time with deep meaning, but why didn't he tell you clearly? If the military advisers didn't guess correctly, wouldn't his hard work be wasted?"
"Mister's original words are that he forges the sword. As for how to use the sword to defeat the enemy, it all depends on the clever use of the military masters." Hu Ke responded with a smile.
"Ziyu is just like you. He doesn't feel happy when doing things. He's not as good as his youngest son." Zhang Fei said impatiently.
The three military advisers were laughed at by Zhang Fei, and Zhuge Liang asked meaningfully: "Yide's words are reasonable, Liang decided to do things more happily in the future, and let Xiaowei Hu tell the truth later, so that Ziyu can get oysters later." I think of you too, right?"
Zhang Fei was startled when he heard that, and then grabbed Hu Ke's hand: "You are Gao Boping's soldier, you should understand the importance of discipline, I order you to forget what you just said."
"Uh... only..." Hu Ke replied innocently.
Only Zhuge Liang and Zhang Fei had eaten steamed oysters in the tent, while Liu Bei, Fazheng and others were dumbfounded.
"Third brother, what is an oyster?" Liu Bei asked curiously.
"Uh... military commander, don't make fun of me. Come and tell the elder brothers. It's going to be winter. Why don't Ziyu get some oysters to work for the army? Isn't it better to transport [-] carts of oysters than gold and silver?" Zhang Fei said.
Hu Ke was sweating profusely. The oyster production was low and the transportation was inconvenient. What kind of scene was it when the whole army divided the oysters?
Zhuge Liang introduced the deliciousness of oysters to everyone, but Liu Bei, Pang Tong, and Fazheng were not idle people and could not be controlled by their appetites. They knew that Zhang Fei was just talking, and then laughed.
After the episode, Zhang Fei invited Hu Ke to have a drink, while Liu Bei and the three military advisers stayed to discuss countermeasures.
When Fazheng was meditating, he had an idea, "We besieged Chengdu for two months, and Liu Zhang completely cut off contact with the outside world. Since he firmly believes in the Changjiang Daily, why don't we fill in the blanks with rumors, break our hearts and send people to persuade us to surrender? General Lan probably meant this, otherwise he wouldn't have given half a newspaper."
Zhuge Liang shook his head: "The Yangtze River News can be modified with words, but the content is always true. If you use rumors to trick Liu Zhang into surrendering, you will be ridiculed by the people of Sichuan in the future, and the Yangtze River News will be useless..."
"Isn't General Lan running the Changjiang Newspaper for the sake of the lord's interest in Yizhou?" Fazheng asked curiously.
"Xiaozhi, you are so superficial. The Yangtze River News is not just for Yizhou. Internally, it can stabilize people's hearts and governance, and externally, it can disintegrate opponents. It is a pity that it is only used in Yizhou. We cannot ruin Ziyu's hard work." Zhuge Liang said.
"Rumors may not be effective, what can make Liu Zhang afraid?" Fazheng said to himself.
Pang Tong squeezed his beard and guessed: "I remember that during the Xingping period, Liu Yan's eldest son Liu Fan and his second son Liu Dan conspired with Ma Teng to attack Li Jue and were punished. At that time, Liu Zhang was escorted into Yizhou by Pang Xi. Killing, will you miss your family more?"
Fazheng quickly shook his head, "Liu Mao passed away in Jian'an 13 years ago, and the brotherhood has long since ceased to exist. Now the eldest son Liu Qian and the second son Liu Chan are both in Chengdu. What is there to worry about?"
Pang Tong sighed: "My lord practices benevolence, so these people are not afraid. If he were to be called Cao thief, Liu Zhang would be terrified and surrender the city early..."
When Fazheng was discussing with Pang Tong, Zhuge Liang had been listening and thinking carefully. When he heard the names of Ma Teng, Li Jue, and Cao Cao, he was faintly inspired.
At this time, the scouts entered the account and brought two news, one was that Cao Cao built the shrine and ancestral temple in July, and the other was that Ma Chao defeated Jicheng and went to Zhang Lu in the south, and his wife and children were killed by his enemy Yang Fu.
Liu Bei sighed after hearing the news: "The horse is brave and good at fighting, very much like Lu Fengxian in the past, but unfortunately he is not Cao's opponent. Now the whole family has escaped from Longyou, but Cao's usurped and proclaimed the country. How unfair is the sky?"
Fazheng took advantage of the situation and said: "After the lord captures Chengdu, he will sit in Yizhou and Jingzhou and work hard to govern, and he will also make immortal achievements."
Although Fazheng said it very cryptically, everyone in the tent could understand it.
Liu Bei waved his hands and laughed: "Bei doesn't envy Cao Mengde at all, if you want to admire fame, let him go..."
Seeing this, the three military advisers were very puzzled and admired Liu Bei's magnanimity, but they didn't know that he kept the nine-character mantra firmly in mind.
"Ma Chao took refuge in Hanzhong, will Zhang Lu plot Yizhou? After all, there are too few defenders at Jiameng Pass..." Pang Tong was very worried.
"I don't think so. Cao Cao's plan to pacify Xiliang is to seek Hanzhong first. How can Zhang Lu care about Yizhou? We must take Chengdu as soon as possible. When Cao Cao really mobilizes troops to attack Hanzhong, the whole Yizhou will also be destroyed." It's dangerous." Fazheng reminded.
Zhuge Liang suddenly looked relaxed, and then said happily: "Liang has a plan, and he can settle in Chengdu."
Chapter 3 The pleasure of monopolizing knowledge
Pang Tong and Fazheng immediately stopped discussing, and Liu Bei looked at Zhuge Liang expectantly.
Zhuge Liang shook his feather fan and said slowly: "Ma Chao bears blood and deep hatred, and acts fiercely and recklessly. Now he is alone and has nothing to worry about. Why don't he use his fierce name to intimidate Liu Zhang?"
Everyone was startled when they heard that Ma Chao could be regarded as a legendary figure in Northwest China. Hundreds of his father and brother were killed in Yecheng, and they were ridiculed by the world.
