"This is impossible! Guan Yu is not..." After receiving the letter from the messenger, Pang Xi was shocked. He suddenly understood that the so-called persuasion and sincerity were just tactics. Liu Zhang's real purpose was to use Pang Xi's three days to think about it.
Guan Yu attacked Zhu Ti to break the deadlock.
Seeing Pang Xi's silence, the messenger smiled and said: "Pang Xi, everyone knows that my lord has a grudge against Zhang Lu, so my lord gave you his last chance of life. I hope you don't make a mistake!"
"Pa!" Pang Xi slapped the case and said angrily: "Liu Jiyu is despicable and shameless. He clearly wanted to show his sincerity, but he divided his troops to attack Zhu Ti. If I had known this, I would have killed you and sent troops to attack Huang Zhong!
"
"As the saying goes, a war never tires of deceit, so why should Pombasi be angry? Besides, it's not too late for you to kill me now!"
The envoy smiled and said: "Now there are only 20,000 troops of Huang Zhong outside the city. Why doesn't Pombasi kill them first, and then kill Huang Zhong?"
"Do you think I don't dare?" Pang Xi said angrily: "Come here, pull this man down and chop him!"
Pang Xi gave an order, and the four guards rushed towards the envoy.
"Don't be rude, I'll leave by myself!" The messenger shouted loudly, and the guards stopped one after another.
The messenger bowed slightly and said: "Pang Xi, I'll say goodbye to you now, and I'll be waiting for you and your family underground!"
Among the four guards, the messenger walked out of the hall without fear. He didn't look like he was going to die, but more like he was going to a banquet.
"Stop him!" Pang Xi was stunned for a moment and quickly ordered. The guard who was escorting the envoy to the execution ground quickly stopped the envoy.
You know, now that Zhang Wei has been defeated, when Zhao Yun, Guan Yu and Huang Zhong reunite, Bajun City will face Liu Zhang's 60,000 army. At first, Pang Xi was only facing Liu Zhang's 40,000 army, and Pang Xi had already stagnated.
If 60,000 troops arrived together, Pang Xi didn't know how many days he could hold out.
"What else is there, Pang Xi?" The messenger turned around and looked at Pang Xi with a smile, but Pang Xi's face turned red.
"I just wanted to test your courage, sir. The champion's subordinates are indeed extraordinary!" Pang Xi is a prince after all, and his face is not ordinary thick-skinned.
"Pang Xi won the prize! I wonder if you have made a decision?" How could the envoy not see the murderous intention in Pang Xi's eyes? However, his task was to recruit Pang Xi to surrender, and he could save other things if he could.
"This..." Pang Xi hesitated again. He kept tapping on the commander's case with his fingers because he was worried that the information the envoy gave him was false. The envoy was not in a hurry. He had been waiting for three days and did not care about this moment.
Half a moment.
"Lord, we have information!" A junior high school student walked into the hall, handed a piece of information to Pang Xi, and gave the envoy a malicious look.
Pang Xi opened the information nervously. He really hoped that the messenger's news was false. Unfortunately, Pang Xi was disappointed! The information handed to him by the primary school was exactly the same as the one handed to him by the messenger.
"Sir..." Pang Xi asked with a slight trembling: "If I surrender, will..."
"Don't worry!" the envoy said with a smile: "Although soldiers are not afraid of deceit, my lord always does what he says! In fact, the reason why my lord persuaded Pombasi to surrender is because he did not want to bring disaster to the lives of Ba County. Pombasi has 80,000 elite soldiers, and I am also in charge of the internal affairs.
People!"
"I...surrender..." Pang Xi gritted his teeth and made the decision. He knew that now was his last chance. Once Liu Zhang's army came to the city, it would be impossible for him to surrender even if he wanted to!
"Pang Xi is wise!" the envoy said with a smile: "I still have to trouble Pom Xi to hold the national registration album, the military talisman and the ribbon, and tie himself to the front of the army!"
"I...well..." Pang Xi sighed. Since he didn't want to risk his life, it didn't matter if he suffered a little humiliation.
"Pang Xi, although you will be an ordinary person from now on, you will be glad for your choice today!" The messenger smiled, but Pang Xi looked helpless.
"Sir, you must not be an ordinary person under the command of the Champion Marquis!" Pang Xi couldn't help but ask when he saw that an ordinary envoy was so brave.
"Me?" the messenger said with a smile, "I am a relative of the champion, Liu Huan of Huainan!"
Pang Xi was shocked and said: "But he is the descendant of Liu Yan, the son of Emperor Guangwu and King of Fuling?"
"Exactly!" Liu Huan said with a smile: "However, I am not as talented as my brother, so everyone in the world knows Huainan Liu Ye, but not me!"
"Sir's talent is also admirable!" Pang Xixiao asked: "I just don't understand why you just come to me and want to die?"
Liu Huan laughed and said: "The Art of War says: Throw yourself to death and survive! Since I am a lobbyist, I don't want to be tortured. I want to die just to avoid death!"
"Are you asking for death in order not to die?" Pang Xi murmured to himself: "I see, I understand!"
"As long as you understand!" Liu Huan asked with a look of relief, "Is Pompeo ready?"
"What do you need to prepare for?" Pang Xi said with a smile: "Come here! Bring me the national registration album and the tiger seal ribbon, and you two can tie me up with a rope!"
The guards pointed at by Pang Xi were hesitant, how dare they tie up the former boss. When Pang Xi saw this, he said angrily: "Hurry up, don't keep sir waiting for too long!"
The guards had no choice but to tie up Pang Xi, and someone also brought Bajun's national registration album. Pang Xi and Liu Huan came to the gate of Bajun city together, and Huang Zhong was already waiting at the bottom of the city.
With the opening of the city gate of Bajun, Pang Xi surrendered, and most of Yizhou fell under Liu Zhang's command. Except for the Five Pecks of Rice Sect in Hanzhong, Yizhou no longer had a force that could compete with Liu Zhang. Of course, without Zhang Wei and
Pang Xi, it is only a matter of time before the Five Dou Rice Cult is solved!
"Okay!" Looking at the information sent by Guo Jia, Liu Zhang couldn't help but smile: "Liu Huan did a good job! Since he persuaded Pang Xi, let him take over as the governor of Bajun! As for Pang Xi, ask him if he is willing.
I am willing to come to Chengdu to accompany my father!"
Guo Jia nodded and asked, "What should we do about Hanzhong?"
Liu Zhang smiled and said: "Pass my order to have Guan Yu, Huang Zhong, and Zhao Yun drive to Hanzhong to prepare to wipe out the Five Dou Rice Sect!"
"This..." Guo Jia asked hesitantly: "Lord, I heard that the Five Pecks of Rice Sect is closely related to the people of Hanzhong. It seems inappropriate to destroy it!"
"Eradicate does not mean killing everyone!" Liu Zhang said with a smile: "The Five Dou Rice Sect can still exist, as long as Zhang Lu's influence in the Five Dou Rice Sect is eliminated. However, a killing is inevitable!"
"Lord, there is a Taoist priest outside the door asking to see you!" Just when Liu Zhang and Guo Jia were having a headache about the Five Dou Rice Cult, a small school came to the meeting hall to report.
"Huh? Taoist priest?" Liu Zhang asked, "Do you have a famous post?"
"No!" The principal shook his head.
Guo Jia turned his eyes and said: "My lord, since this Taoist wants to meet, he must be a stranger, so you might as well meet him!"
"Please!" Liu Zhang was having a headache about Taoism. It would be good to have a Taoist priest who knew the basics to help.
"Immeasurable longevity! This poor Taoist has seen a champion!" An old Taoist priest wearing a Taoist robe with an immortal air walked into the hall with the primary school. I saw that this man had white beard and hair. He didn't know how old he was!
"The Taoist is polite! Please sit down!" Liu Zhang returned the courtesy and asked the Taoist to sit down. A servant immediately brought him fragrant tea.
"Thank you so much, Champion!" The Taoist sat down and said, "I'm a poor Taoist who came here uninvited. I hope the Champion won't be surprised!"
"How dare you!" Liu Zhang asked with a smile: "The Taoist priest is here and the flowers are shining brightly. How dare you ask the Taoist priest's name!"
"The poor Taoist Zuo Ci Zi Yuan Fang!" The old Taoist nodded with a smile on his face.
"Mr. Wujiao?" Liu Zhang asked with a smile: "I heard that Mr. is a member of the immortals. Now he is no longer practicing in the immortal mansion. Why do you miss the human world and come to me?"
Zuo Ci smiled and said: "The Seven Killing Stars are moving, and the masters are killing each other. Now the Greedy Wolf and the Po Army are responding accordingly. The pattern of Killing the Wolf has been completed, and the world will be in chaos for hundreds of years! The world is like this, and I have nothing to do with it! But twenty years later
In front of us, an alien star suddenly descended, its light was like a fight, and it was faintly about to break through the situation of killing the wolf. I have been searching hard for more than ten years, and finally found the person corresponding to the alien star!"
"Ah?" Liu Zhang was confused, but his heart was trembling. Although Liu Zhang had heard of the Sha Po Lang pattern, he didn't understand it, but he knew that the world had been in chaos for hundreds of years. From the beginning of the Yellow Turban Rebellion to
After the unification of the Jin Dynasty ended, the Han people experienced ninety-seven years of war.
"Mr. Wujiao, you won't say that I was the one who dropped the alien star from the sky twenty years ago!" Liu Zhang was stunned for a moment and then came back to his senses. In the final analysis, he did not believe in the theory of celestial phenomena, even if it was very strange.
magic.
"Not bad!" Zuo Ci's smile was very kind, but it made Liu Zhang feel that he had some bad intentions. Seeing Liu Zhang's doubtful face, Zuo Ci smiled and asked: "The champion, is he confused?"
Liu Zhang nodded and asked: "Since you are a foreigner, sir, even if an alien star appears, what does it have to do with you?"
"It really has nothing to do with me!" Zuo Ci said with a smile on his face: "But Pindao discovered that the alien star has an indissoluble bond with the Taoist tradition, so it has something to do with Pindao!"
"Huh? Zuo Laodao, don't you want to persuade me to become a monk and practice?" Liu Zhang suddenly remembered that according to legend, Zuo Ci once persuaded the powerful Cao Cao to become a monk.
"How dare you!" Zuo Ci's smile froze on his face. Not to mention that Liu Zhang was a clan member of the Han Dynasty. If he was really a foreign star, he would also be in Ziwei Huan. You know, when the celestial phenomena appeared, the foreign stars could outnumber the three.
The strange star of the Great Emperor Star. Who dares to risk the great power of the world to persuade Liu Zhang to become a monk?
Seeing that Zuo Ci was not persuading him to become a monk, Liu Zhang asked a little strangely: "If you are not persuading me to become a monk, how can I have a relationship with Taoism?"
Zuo Ci laughed and said: "The words of the champion are wrong! Laozi said: Tao can be Tao, but it is not Tao. Tao is a mysterious and mysterious thing. You don't necessarily have to become a monk to have a relationship with Tao. There are three thousand Tao, even if it means killing
, is it not a kind of Tao?"
"Uh..." Liu Zhang was speechless for a while. Zuo Ci was obviously a philosopher. In order to prevent Zuo Ci from continuing to deceive him, Liu Zhang smiled bitterly and said, "Taoist Priest, you'd better tell your purpose of coming!"
Zuo Ci did not answer, but asked with a smile: "I saw that the champion's brows were slightly furrowed. I don't know if he is worried about anything. Why don't you talk to Pin Dao? Maybe Pin Dao can find a solution!"
Liu Zhang's eyes lit up when he heard this. Zuo Ci and the Five Dou Rice Sect were both different branches of Taoism. There should be ways to deal with the Five Dou Rice Sect.
So Liu Zhang laughed and said: "I am worried about the Five Pecks of Rice religion mastered by Zhang Lu!"
Zuo Ci waved the floating dust in his hand and said, "I am here for the Five Pecks of Rice Sect!"
