So Kong Ming took Jiang Wei back to the camp and discussed the attack on Tianshui and Shangji. Jiang Wei said: "Yin Shang and Liang Xu in Tianshui City have a good relationship with me. I will write two secret letters immediately, and I will shoot
Entering the city can cause them to have civil strife, and then the city can be taken down."
Kong Ming followed this suggestion. Jiang Wei immediately wrote two secret letters, tied them to the bow and arrow, rode the horse to the bottom of the city, and then pulled the bow and shot onto the city wall. After a soldier picked it up, he handed it to Ma Zun.
He was very puzzled and discussed with Xiahou Wei and said, "Liang Xu, Yin Shang and Jiang Wei have a good relationship. Now he is ready to be an internal assistant. The governor should make a decision as soon as possible."
He replied: "You can kill two people first."
Yin Shang also received the news and said to Liang Xu: "It's better to surrender directly, so there is still room for maneuver."
That night, Xiahou Wei invited Liang and Yin to talk many times. When the two knew that the matter was very critical, they put on horses, took weapons, and opened the city gate with their troops to let the Shu army enter. Xiahou Wei and Ma Zun were very panicked when they knew about it.
He took hundreds of people out of the west gate, abandoned the city, and went to join Qianghu City, Liang Xu and Yin Shang came out to greet Kong Ming and comforted the city, and Kong Ming asked about the way to get Shang Ming.
Liang Xu said: "This city is guarded by my younger brother Liang Xu. I'll go and surrender him."
Kong Ming was very happy. Not long after he left, he led Liang Qian out of the city to surrender to Kong Ming. Kong Ming rewarded Liang Xu and made Liang Xu the prefect of Tianshu City, Yin Shang as the ruling of Jicheng, and Liang Qian as the ruling of the Supreme Court.
After the allocation was completed, the troops were sorted out and everyone asked, "Why didn't the Prime Minister chase Xiahou Yan?"
Kong Ming smiled and said, "I put Xiahou Wei on it, it was like putting a duck. Now that I got Jiang Wei, it was like getting a phoenix. This is a good deal."
After Kong Ming obtained three cities, his reputation was so great that the surrounding counties and counties knew about it. Kong Ming rectified his troops and gathered the troops from Hanzhong to go out to Qishan. The troops approached the west of the Wei River and prepared to further plan for the Central Plains. Some detailed works quickly
This news was reported to Luoyang.
It was the first year of Taihe, the leader of Wei, Cao Rui, and he was promoted to the palace to court. A close minister reported: "Xiahou's prince-consort lost three counties and fled to Qiangzhong. Now the Shu army is facing Qishan, and the front is even more at Weishui.
To the west, I hope I can send troops to defeat the enemy as soon as possible."
Cao Rui was very surprised after hearing this and asked his ministers: "Who can withdraw the Shu army for me?"
Situ Wang Lang came out and replied: "I saw that every time the late emperor used the general Cao Zhen, he would be invincible and defeated. Why didn't Your Majesty appointed Cao Zhen as the Grand Commander and retreat from the Shu army?"
Cao Rui was approved and called Cao Zhen in front of him, saying, "The last emperor asked you to be the one who is the one who is the one who is in charge of the Central Plains. How can you bear to sit idly by the Shu army now attacking the Central Plains?"
Cao Zhen bowed and said, "My talent is very low, I'm afraid I can't be competent!"
Wang Lang said: "The general is a minister of the country and cannot refuse. Although I am old, I am willing to go with the general."
Cao Zhen nodded and said, "I have received great kindness, how dare I refuse? But I hope to send someone as my deputy general."
Cao Rui said: "You can choose this yourself."
Cao Zhen then elected a native of Yangqu in Taiyuan, with the surname Guo, name Huai, and the courtesy name Boji. He was appointed as the Marquis of Sheting and was appointed as the governor of Yongzhou.
Cao Rui immediately agreed, so he appointed Cao Zhen as the governor, rewarded Jieyue, and appointed Guo Huai as the deputy governor, and Wang Lang as the military advisor. At that time, Wang Lang was already seventy-six years old and had allocated more than 200,000 troops from the east and west to Cao Zhen.
Cao Zhen appointed his younger brother Cao Zun as the vanguard, and appointed general Zhu Zan as the deputy vanguard. In November of that year, Cao Rui personally sent him outside the west gate before returning.
Cao Zhen led a large army to Chang'an, crossed the Wei River and set up a camp in the west. Cao Zhen and Wang Lang and Guo Huai discussed the plan to withdraw the troops. Wang Lang said: "When tomorrow the team is tightened and the flags are displayed, I will come forward in person. Just a word can be made.
Zhuge Liang surrendered, and the Shu army retreated without fighting."
Cao Zhen was very happy and sent an order overnight to rebel at the fourth update. During the day, he asked the team to be neatly organized, with the men and women, the flags and horns, and the war was ordered first. The next day, the two armies faced each other and formed a formation before the Qishan Mountains.
The Shu army saw that the Wei soldiers were very majestic, which was very different from those led by Xiahou Qing.
After the drum horns of the three armies ended, Situ Wang Lang came out on a horse, with the governor Cao Zhen above and the deputy governor Guo Huai below. The two pioneers suppressed the formation, and the spy went out and shouted: "Please come out and answer against the head coach!"
I saw that where the Shu army gate flag was opened, Guan Xing and Zhang Bao came out from the left and right respectively, standing on both sides of the horses, and then came out from behind, and the last one was a four-wheeler. Kong Ming was sitting in the car, Lunzi
The feather fan, a plain soap ribbon, seemed to be a hermit.
Kong Mingyuan looked at the three caps in front of the Wei army formation, and the name was written on the flag: The old man in the center was the military advisor, Situ Wang Lang. Kong Ming thought to himself: "This old guy must be convinced, and I should adapt to the situation."
"So the soldiers pushed the four-wheeled car outside the town and asked the guards' school to preach: "The Prime Minister of the Han Dynasty and Situ talked!"
After hearing this, Wang Lang rode out on a horse, Kong Ming bowed in the car, and Wang Lang bowed to the greeting immediately. Wang Lang said, "I heard that your name has been a long time. I have the honor to meet today. Since you know the destiny and the current affairs, why do you need it?
A nameless soldier emerged?”
Kong Ming said: "I came to fight against the thief with the will of the new emperor. How could I say that I am Wuming?"
Wang Lang said: "The number of days changes, and the artifacts will also change their masters, and return to the virtuous people. This is a natural truth. Since the Han Dynasty Huan and Ling, the Yellow Turban Army has risen and the world has been fought for the whole country until Chuping and Jian'an
During the years, Dong Zhuo plotted against rebellion, Li Jue and Guo Si continued to abuse; Yuan Shu openly became emperor in Shouchun, Yuan Shao was dominant in Yecheng, Liu Biao occupied Jingzhou, Lu Bu dominated in Xuzhou, thieves rose up, treacherous heroes flew everywhere, and the country was very dangerous.
The creatures were in trouble. My Emperor Taizu Wu cleared the six worlds and swept the eight deserts. The people returned to their hearts. The world surrendered and admired them from all directions. They were not forcibly seized by power. It was really fate.
At that time, Emperor Wen of Shizu inherited the great throne, followed the heavens and man, and imitated the law of governing the law. However, China is once again glorious. Isn’t this the wish of the people of the world? Now you have great talents and high ambitions, and you always have
Bi Guan, Le, why do you have to force yourself to go against the will of heaven and act in deviant ways? Have you never heard of the truth that those who follow the will of heaven will prosper, and those who go against the will of heaven will perish? Now our Wei State has a million army and a thousand generals, you
How can those faint lights in Western Sichuan be compared with the sun and the moon? You can turn against each other and abandon your armor and surrender with Eli Lilly. You can definitely be granted the title of marquis. The country is prosperous and the people are safe. Isn’t that good?"
After hearing this, Kong Ming remained silent. Wang Lang thought that his persuasion made him feel very inferior, so he quickly continued to persuade: "Submit quickly, I will recommend you in front of Emperor Wei. If you can help us take down Xichuan, then Xichuan will be yours.
.”
Kong Ming raised his head, laughed loudly, and said, "I thought you were a veteran of the Han Dynasty. You must have had some great arguments. I didn't expect you to say such dirty words. It's really a pity. I have some here too.
