Capture Liu Bei, surrender Zhuge, and capture Chang'an without bloodshed.
On the same day, Liu Feng ordered Liu Bei to write two handwritten letters and send them to Zhao Yun of Tongguan and Wu Yi of Pubanjin respectively, asking them to surrender.
On the day he received the letter of surrender, Wu Yi disarmed tens of thousands of soldiers and horses in Pubanjin and let Wei Yan on the east bank of the Yellow River enter Guanzhong. Wu Yi himself led the generals in the army and rushed to Chang'an at night to pay homage to Liu Feng .
Liu Feng comforted these surrendered generals and ordered them to perform their duties.
Only Zhao Yun of Tongguan refused to surrender.
Although Zhao Yun had 20,000 soldiers and the natural security of Tongguan, all his food and grass depended on transportation from Chang'an. Once the food and grass were cut off, Zhao Yun hesitated, and the troops in Tongguan began to scatter.
Liu Feng could have surrounded and killed Zhao Yun in Tongguan, but he thought of Zhao Yun's kindness to him. When he was wronged under Liu Bei's command, Zhao Yun had defended him many times. Liu Feng would always remember this kindness in his heart. .
Liu Feng has always been the kind of person who has a clear sense of grudges and grudges. If others respect him, he will return the favor. Feeling Zhao Yun's old kindness, Liu Feng does not want to push this loyal and courageous general to a dead end.
Therefore, in order to force Zhao Yun to surrender, Liu Feng personally led 30,000 troops and led Liu Bei east to Tongguan to recruit Zhao Yun to surrender.
When Zhao Yun on Tongguan City saw the disgraced Liu Bei tied up on a high platform with his own eyes, he truly accepted this cruel reality.
That day, this legendary general finally opened the city gates and came to surrender with a gloomy expression.
At the gate, Liu Feng personally welcomed Zhao Yun's arrival.
"Zhao Yun, the guilty general, pays homage to Song Guogong."
Zhao Yun turned over and dismounted, kneeling in front of him.
Liu Feng jumped off his horse and hurriedly helped Zhao Yun up. Looking at this heroic face that he had admired for a long time, Liu Feng was filled with emotion. He stroked his shoulder and said: "Zilong, after so many years, you and I are finally no longer enemies." ¡±
Zhao Yun smiled bitterly, not knowing what to say.
Liu Feng said again: "The past has passed. Let's forget about him. From now on, you and I, the king and our ministers, will share this peace."
Zhao Yun was moved by Liu Feng's grand banquet. He hesitated for a moment, cupped his hands and said, "Thank you so much for your generosity, Duke Song. However, Yun also has an unkind request. I hope Duke Song can agree to it."
"What's the matter, Zilong just say it doesn't matter, as long as I can do it, I will definitely promise you." Liu Feng said happily.
Zhao Yun said silently: "I ask Duke Song to be merciful and leave a way for Duke Xuande to survive."
I see.
Zhao Yun did not ask for an official title for himself, but only interceded for Liu Bei. This loyalty really made Liu Feng sigh.
Liu Feng did not originally intend to kill Liu Bei. He had long been prepared to keep Liu Bei and let him live in humiliation and pain, and life would be worse than death.
Now that Zhao Yun has asked for help, Liu Feng is happy to be a favor, and happily said: "Don't worry, Zilong, I will ensure that Liu Xuande will die long and healthy as long as I am alive."
Seeing Liu Feng's generous agreement, Zhao Yun breathed a sigh of relief and bowed deeply: "Thank you so much, Duke Song."
"Okay, let's go back to the camp together. I want to have a drink with Zilong. We won't get drunk today."
Liu Feng was in a good mood and returned to camp with Zhao Yun.
Liu Bei, who was tied up under the high platform, watched Liu Feng and Zhao Yun talking and laughing as they passed by, feeling an unbearable pain like needle pricks in his heart.
The strong wind caressed my face, and two lines of bitter old tears rolled down quietly.

Liu Feng brought Zhao Yun back to Chang'an, where he stayed for three consecutive months, comforting the people in Guanzhong and supervising the follow-up battle to destroy Ma Chao.
Several armies from Guandong entered the Pass one after another. Liu Feng then ordered Wei Yan generals Ma Zhong, Zhang Yi and other generals to lead an army of 50,000 to cross Longshan to the west to destroy the remnants of Ma Chao who fled to Liangzhou. At the same time, 30,000 soldiers and horses led by Huang Zhong and Ma Su from Hanzhong also attacked Longyou from Qishan.
Ma Chao used his prestige in Liangzhou to reunite tens of thousands of Qiang and Hu rebels, and called himself the king of Liangzhou, in vain to demarcate territory and defend one side.
Liu Feng was furious at Ma Chao's stubbornness, so he beheaded his younger brother Ma Dai, and executed dozens of his family members who stayed in Chang'an. He ordered Wei Yan and others to quickly advance troops to kill all Ma Chao's rebellious party.
Although Ma Chao has a strong appeal in Xiliang, how can he be an opponent of Wei Yan and other armies who have the backing of the whole world.
Wei Yan, Huang Zhong, Ma Di and Liu Fengyuan's three generals joined forces to defeat Ma Chao in Lueyang and Pingxiang, forcingHe abandoned Longyou and fled north into Liangzhou.
Wei Yan led 30,000 cavalry and pursued Ma Chao relentlessly. He defeated Ma Chao in Jincheng and Cangsong, and surrounded Ma Chao's remnant south of Guzang, the headquarters of Wuwei County. After a fierce battle, Ma Chao was surrounded and killed.
When Ma Chao died, the last resistance force was wiped out. Liu Feng then ordered Ma Chao's head to be spread throughout Xiliang. The Qiang and Hu people were greatly frightened and expressed their submission to the new master. All counties in Liangzhou were at peace.
Liu Feng then appointed Ma Su as the governor of Liangzhou and ordered him to sit in Liangzhou. He also ordered Wei Yan to governor Guanzhong's troops to stay in Chang'an. After three months, Liu Feng led his army eastward to Luoyang.
When he returned to Luoyang this time, in addition to the victorious army, Liu Feng also brought back all ten thousand households in Chang'an to Luoyang. Most of these ten thousand households were the family members of Liu Bei's former ministers, in order to minimize the influence of Liu Bei's old forces in Guanzhong. , Liu Fengte moved all these people back to Luoyang.
Because it was the great achievement of wiping out Liu Bei and pacifying the world, not long after Liu Feng returned to Beijing, the officials in Luoyang came forward to ask Han Emperor Liu Xie to make Liu Feng the king.
With the support of the ministers and Liu Feng's rising power, Liu Xie dared not to obey, so he issued an edict to confer Song Gong Liu Feng as King of the Song Dynasty.
Liu Feng happily obeyed the edict and ascended the throne as King of Song Dynasty. He also made Sun Shangxiang the princess and his son Liu Yu the prince.
When Liu Feng ascended the throne as King of the Song Dynasty, Cao Cao's old troops who fled outside the Great Wall took the opportunity to unite with the Xiongnu to cause rebellion, invaded Yanmen and Taiyuan counties in the south, and plundered wantonly.
Song King Liu Feng was furious, so he ordered Gan Ning to command 30,000 troops, march north from Hedong County, defeat the Xiongnu invading army, and kill more than 20,000 Huru.
Taking advantage of the chaos in Bingzhou as an excuse, Liu Feng issued an order to expel the Hu people, prohibiting the Hu people outside the Great Wall from moving inward, and adopted a combination of kindness and power, and drove all the Northern Hu people who once moved south to the Youbin area to move north.
At the same time, Liu Feng ordered Wei Yan and Ma Di to establish farming in the Longyou area, and moved all the Han Chinese who were prisoners of war to the Longyou area, with the intention of re-establishing the Han people's population advantage in Xiliang, and gradually reducing the Qiang and Di's population. The barbarians were expelled from the territory of the Han Dynasty.
After nearly two years of external expeditions and internal pacification, the world was basically peaceful, and Liu Feng's reputation had reached its peak. In the spring of this year, officials in both the government and the public once again set off a wave of upsurge. This time, they persuaded Han Emperor Liu Feng Xie, ceded the Han Dynasty Jiangshan Sheji Chan to Liu Feng.
Of course, such a craze for going public was naturally triggered by Liu Feng's instruction.
Today, the world is at peace and people's hearts are at ease. Looking at the world, Liu Feng no longer has any enemies.
No one can threaten Liu Feng's status anymore. He worked hard for many years and finally established a peaceful country. He single-handedly reunited the Han Dynasty just to end this dynasty.
For Han Emperor Liu Xie, today's situation was already within his expectation.
In fact, as early as after Liu Feng wiped out Liu Bei, Liu Xie indicated to Liu Feng that he could directly abdicate the throne to him without having to go through the process of him becoming king.
It¡¯s just that at that time Liu Feng considered that the world was at the beginning of peace and there were many more important things to deal with, so he did not agree for the time being.
Now that the time is right, Liu Feng has hinted that Liu Xie seems to have had enough of the life of such a puppet emperor, and he happily issued an edict to abdicate the throne to the King of Song without any hesitation.
Therefore, after repeated referrals, Liu Feng responded to the hearts of all the people in the world, so in early summer he accepted Liu Xie's abdication, succeeded to the throne, and changed the country's name to Song, Yuan to the first year of Yongchu, and granted Sun Shangxiang the title of The queen made her eldest son Liu Yu the crown prince, granted a general amnesty to the world, and granted hundreds of officials awards.
Three years after taking the throne, the country is peaceful and the people are safe, and the world is gradually showing signs of peace.
In the autumn of this year, after the autumn harvest, all the states in the world were blessed with a good harvest. Liu Feng, who had been living in the palace for a long time, became very interested, so he left Prime Minister Pang Tong to assist the prince in guarding Luoyang. He and Queen Sun Shangxiang, under the protection of tens of thousands of elite forest guards, set out Driving to the south for a tour.
The holy driver of the southern tour started from Luoyang, passed through Luyang, Wanxian, Xinye, Xiangyang, and headed towards Jiangling.
At dusk that day, the southern patrol team passed by Dangyang Changban Slope.
The setting sun is shining slantingly, the evening breeze is blowing, and the endless wilderness is filled with soft golden color everywhere.
Liu Feng Zhuma looked at this familiar scenery. At this moment, the past events appeared one by one in front of his eyes like smoke and clouds.
"Your Majesty, is this the battlefield where you first went into battle?" Queen Sun Shangxiang asked with a smile.
Liu Feng smiled and nodded, pointing to the left front and sighing: "If I remember correctly, that was where I fought against the tiger fool Xu Chu for the first time. If Zilong hadn't appeared in time, I would have died at that time. Under Xu Chu¡¯s sword.¡±
That thrilling scene?, thinking back to this day, Liu Feng still has a lingering feeling of fear.
Sun Shangxiang said: "However, if I had not experienced the life and death situation that day, many things may not have happened, and perhaps there would be no Your Majesty today."
Sun Shangxiang's words evoked many of Liu Feng's reveries. If he had not met Xu Chu, he would not have met Mrs. Mi, nor would he have saved Adou, and Mi Zhu would not have been suspected. Perhaps, he would have He will not choose to take risks, and if there is no burning cauldron in Changsha, how can we talk about the current Ninth Five-Year Plan?
Destiny is really a wonderful thing.
"Perhaps, but if history really changes, what makes me most sad is that I will not be able to meet you, the queen."
Liu Feng said, reaching out and holding her hand. Sun Shangxiang smiled slightly and held her hand tighter.
The two of them stood side by side, looking at the setting sun in the distance.
The clouds on the horizon are like fire, and the setting sun is so beautiful that it feels like a dream.
