After capturing Fushui Pass, Jiangdong's army gained momentum. Huang Zhong and Chen arrived to hold a banquet to appease the newly surrendered Gao Pei to reassure him. Gao Pei also spoke generously during the banquet, saying that Liu Zhang was weak and mediocre, and had no enterprising spirit. He had ruined the good land of Bashu. Since Liu Zhang, everyone was willing to be mediocre, but he had forced away many ambitious people. Junjie, today Bashu is defeated, only in a matter of days.
After the banquet was over, Huang Zhong called Chen Dao and asked in a low voice: "How is Gao Pei looking at him now?"
Chen Dao was a rough and arrogant man by nature. When he heard this, he replied without thinking: "Gao Pei is quick to speak and is worthy of being a good man in Shu! He has joined our army now and should be put to good use."
Huang Zhong shook his head and said: "That's not entirely true! I think Liu Yan and Liu Zhang and their sons have been in charge of Bashu for decades, and their foundation has become deeper and deeper. Gao Pei is a brave general under his command, and he must have received more favors from him. Today, he keeps silent about Liu's favor, but instead To say the least, the Liu family¡¯s grievances are not the actions of a magnanimous gentleman! Moreover, his behavior is abnormal, so you must be careful of fraud!"
Chen Dao thought about it carefully and realized that Gao Peizhi's whereabouts were indeed suspicious, so he hurriedly raised his hands and said, "Everything is just the order of General Han Sheng!"
Huang Zhong stroked his snow-white beard and said with a smile: "This is a simple matter. I'll call Gao Pei to my tent later and we'll find out!"
Half an hour later, Gao Pei was invited by Huang Zhong to his big tent. Just a few steps into the tent, Gao Pei felt that the atmosphere was completely different. As expected, Huang Zhong sat down and his face was as heavy as water. Chen He held his sword in his hand and glared at each other, feeling his heart sinking.
"Gao Pei! You are so brave, you actually deceived us by pretending to surrender! Take it down for me, right and left!" Huang Zhong shouted violently. Gao Pei was so frightened that his legs went weak. He almost collapsed to the ground.
Yang Huai¡¯s last words were to ask Gao Pei to use his head to fake a surrender in order to gain the trust of Jiangdong Army, and to counterattack at the right time to get rid of Huang Zhong, Chen Dao and others to alleviate the crisis in Bashu. Gao Pei followed the plan, but he never thought that Huang Zhong would see through his plan!
The soldiers in the tent suddenly agreed and surrounded Gao Pei with halberds in hand. Gao Pei was panicked. He really thought that his whereabouts had been exposed, so he quickly pulled out his sword and howled: "You are invading my territory for no reason. I wish I could eat your flesh raw!"
? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? Gao Pei chopped down two soldiers with his sword, and was about to escape from the tent when he suddenly felt an unusually cold murderous intent. He peeked and saw that Huang Zhong had an iron bow in his hand, and a cold and cold one. The wolf's fang arrow is aimed at him.
Gao Pei secretly screamed "No," and in the blink of an eye, the wolf-fang arrow shot into his back like lightning. Gao Pei suddenly felt that the strength in his body receded like a tide, and his vision went dark. Fell to the ground.
Chen Dao clasped his fists, his face full of admiration, "General Han Sheng only tried his best, and then let Gao Pei do his own deeds. I will eventually admire him!"
Having eliminated a confidant¡¯s troubles, Huang Zhong couldn¡¯t help but feel proud and said with a big smile: ¡°Excellent! Intrigue and deceit are common among military strategists. Without the teachings of the lord, I¡¯m afraid we would all fall into his trap!¡±
Two days later, Gan Ning sent Wei Yan and his 10,000 troops to arrive. Huang Zhong, Chen Dao, and Wei Yan joined forces and marched down the river in a mighty manner. They even defeated the two cities of Jiangyou and Mianzhou, less than 200 miles away from Chengdu!
Until then, Zhang Ren had assembled tens of thousands of troops. Fang Yu received enough military rations a few days ago, and Zhang Ren became furious. They urged the army to march all the way, but they only reached Luoxian County. And Jiangdong's army has also reached the gate of Luoxian County!
Zhang Ren immediately took Lei Tong, Liu Xun, Liu Sui and other generals to the city tower. He put up a pergola and took a look. He couldn't help but take a breath of cold air. He saw that Jiangdong's army was neat and tidy, and its marching formation was well-organized, showing that it was well-trained. They are elite soldiers, and their armor and weapons and equipment are far superior to the soldiers of Bashu. No wonder the dangerous terrain of Bashu cannot stop them!
Zhang Ren looked around and saw that everyone looked worried. He couldn't help but sigh in his heart. As a general, you must obey the king's orders. The Jiangdong Army is so powerful that if you can't defeat it, you can only die in battle! Zhang Ren immediately ordered the entire army to defend Luoxian County!
Luoxian County is an important town on the outskirts of Chengdu. It has been a battleground for military strategists since ancient times. After many years of rest and recuperation, the city has high walls and thick walls, making it easy to defend and difficult to attack. Chen Dao commanded his troops to attack for a while, but with little success, he awarded the gold medal. The troops have been withdrawn.
In the evening, everyone discussed the military situation. Wei Yan proposed that Luoxian County was difficult to attack and Zhang Ren defended it. If he attacked forcefully, the Jiangdong Army would suffer heavy losses. If they could not choose a detour and capture Chengdu in one fell swoop, the troops in Luoxian County would surely surrender.
Huang Zhong was slightly moved, but after thinking about it carefully, he replied: "Chang Wen, Chengdu is much larger than Luoxian County, with taller and thicker walls, more guards, and sufficient food and grass. Our army will bypass it." If Luoxian County cannot capture Chengdu in the short term, it will face the threat of Zhang Ren attacking from behind. At that time, the soldiers will be suffering from enemies from both sides."
Huang Zhong was the Zhengyin forward appointed by Gan Ning personally, and both Wei Yan and Chen Dao were under his control. Since he said this, Wei Yan no longer insisted, but it was true that he captured Luoxian County so quickly and defeated Zhang Ren, who was both wise and brave. Three people paidEven after racking my brains, I couldn't come up with a better solution.
At this moment, a guard hurriedly walked into the tent and handed Huang Zhong a sealed letter. Huang Zhong opened it and read it. He immediately laughed and said, "God help me! Zhang Ren's death is not far away." That¡¯s it!¡±
On the second day, Wei Yan gathered his troops and continued to attack the north gate of Luoxian County. Zhang Ren came to Yayu in person and commanded his soldiers to repel several waves of attacks by the Jiangdong Army. In the afternoon of the battle, guards suddenly came to report that General Wu Yi had detoured back after withdrawing his troops from Fushui Pass. He was now outside the west gate, preparing to enter the city and guard Luoxian County together.
Zhang Ren felt a little unhappy. He did not expect that Wu Yi was so timid in the face of a powerful enemy that he did not dare to rescue the Fushui Pass defenders, which led to the deaths of Yang Huai and Gao Pei. But at this moment, Jiangdong Army troops were pressing on the border, and Wu Yi There are also 10,000 elite soldiers on hand. At this moment, we should focus on unity, let his troops enter the city, appease them, and defend Luoxian County with you!
Zhang Ren¡¯s eyes moved in the direction of Chengdu. If Luo County is defended, Chengdu will have no big worries!
However, what Zhang Ren never expected was that Wu Yi at this time was no longer the Wu Yi of the past. With Fazheng's strong persuasion, Wu Yi had already surrendered Jiangdong Army!
That day and night, Zhang Ren spared no effort to inspect the four gates of the city defense. After a hasty wash, he fell asleep without taking off his clothes and armor. While sleeping, he was suddenly awakened by a loud noise. He hurriedly called his personal guards to ask, but the guards did not know what happened. Zhang Ren hurriedly went out, found the direction, picked up his gun, mounted his horse, whipped a few times, and headed straight to the west gate. go.
At this moment, the west gate was in chaos, with flames rising into the sky. Wu Yi chopped down the last soldier guarding the city with his sword. His men had already rushed forward, and opened the thick door in the pool of blood on the ground. city ??gate.
Outside the city gate, Huang Zhong personally led three thousand elites who had been waiting for a long time. As soon as the city gate opened, Huang Zhong waved his sword, and the three thousand elites rushed into Luo County like hungry tigers pouncing on prey! At this moment, no matter how powerful Zhang Ren is, it will be difficult to defend Luoxian County!
