Chapter 288: Assassinating Beauty in Nanzhong, Chengdu Righteous General
Two days ago, Wang Xu couldn't find Liu Zhang, and he also invited these lords to go down the mountain. Although Youxi Yewutie agreed, his subordinates did not agree. Now the seeds have just been planted, and Liu Zhang died, and the Han people's food supply was also cut off. How could this be done?
It’s time to go down the mountain, unless everyone in Wuxi wants to starve to death.
The same situation applies to Chenxi, Wuxi is ambiguous, Yuexi simply refuses, Wuxi is willing to go down the mountain, but firstly, the warriors released by Jingzhou have not yet gone up the mountain, and secondly, the distance is farthest, including protecting their own clan,
Going down the mountain is very inconvenient.
But then Liu Zhang came back from the dead, and all the problems were solved. Several lords expressed their willingness to go down the mountain to help Liu Zhang put down the rebellion.
"Lord, in this case, including Wuxi, we have no less than 30,000 soldiers and horses, and those thieves can be defeated in an instant." Wang Xu said happily.
Liu Zhang frowned and thought deeply. If he gathered troops and horses, he would not be able to prepare for a period of time. Moreover, Wuxi was already short of food. If something happened to him this time, the Wuxi Protectorate would also have no food supply. With so many people going down the mountain, the food would not be available.
Where does it come from?
The most important thing is that Wuxi just planted grain, and now if they are brought down the mountain, all the spring planting will be wasted, and all the previous efforts will be in vain. Even if the counterinsurgency is successful, so many people will have to be supported by then. They have just experienced the rebellion.
Can Yizhou be achieved?
The most important thing is that I can't waste so much time.
"No, Liu Zhang appreciates everyone's good intentions, but you can't all go down the mountain." Liu Zhang pondered for a moment and asked Ye Wu Railway: "How is the situation in Chengdu?"
"Very bad." Ye Wutie frowned and said: "As soon as Chengdu rebelled, it gained momentum. Almost all the aristocratic families joined in, and General Zhang Ren from the west didn't come back with his troops for some reason. The news that came this morning, yesterday
Chengdu is already in danger, and now I'm afraid..."
Ye Wutie did not continue, Liu Zhang could understand that Chengdu had only a few thousand soldiers and horses, and the influence of aristocratic families was pervasive, and most of the officials in the city were cliques, so Chengdu was definitely in danger.
If Chengdu is lost, Yizhou and Jingzhou will inevitably be shaken, and more unscrupulous people will start a rebellion, and the situation will be out of control. Moreover, his son, Huang Yue, and all the civil and military officials in Yizhou are in Chengdu, and the consequences will be disastrous.
Liu Zhang felt chills on his back when he thought of this.
The primary goal is to control Chengdu. Try your best to recapture the city before Chengdu falls. If it cannot be held, Liu Zhang is determined to regain control in the shortest possible period, so as to stabilize the situation.
But in that case, Huang Yue, Liu Xun and others would be in danger.
If it is true as Ye Wutie said, the rebellion in Chengdu is overwhelming, then the fall of Chengdu is almost a foregone conclusion.
"No, I have to rush back to Chengdu as soon as possible. King Ye Wutie, I have to set off now. How many troops can you gather?"
Ye Wutie glanced at the other lords and replied: "If we set out now, Chenxi's troops will not exceed one thousand. I will send people to Youxi urgently. When the general arrives, it is estimated that two thousand can be gathered, adding up to three
Thousands of people.”
"Four thousand, more than a thousand of my own soldiers were brought by Fa Zheng, and there are more than a thousand and five thousand people." Liu Zhang thought for a moment, and the number of rebel forces in Chengdu was at least tens of thousands, and at most tens of thousands.
Five thousand people are really dangerous. If the city is breached and we defend according to the danger, our five thousand people will not be able to save the world.
But I can no longer think so much. Whether it is for the sake of my family or the overall situation of Jingyi, I must rush back quickly.
"Okay, there are only so many people." Liu Zhang said, took the map and drew a curve on it with a pen, "Just take this road."
When everyone looked around, they saw that this road was not the conventional road from Bajun through Fucheng to Chengdu, but from the south of Jiangzhou, passing through Jiangyang and Shuotuo River, and going straight into Chengdu.
Wang Xu frowned and said: "My lord, although this road looks much closer, it is full of unexplored dangerous roads and the mountains are undulating. How can we cross it?"
Liu Zhang looked at Ye Wutie and others and asked in a deep voice: "Are your people afraid of dangerous roads?"
Ye Wutie burst out laughing and said, "We from Wuxi are afraid of walking on a flat road."
"That's it." Liu Zhang chuckled softly: "When we return to Chengdu this time, it must be kept secret. This road was the former Southwest Silk Road, but it was abandoned for a long time. It must be passable.
King Ye Wutie, after we leave, you can farm with peace of mind and do not leak any rumors. As for the food supply of Wuxi Protectorate, the supply cannot be restored until I put down the rebellion, so as to prevent the rebels from noticing. After the rebellion is put down,
We must replenish the supply of grain and send it to Wuxi."
"Whatever the general says is fine," several Wuxi leaders said.
Liu Zhang nodded. When returning to Chengdu this time, the first thing is to be fast and the second thing is to be hidden. If they are noticed by Chengdu thieves, even if these people are frightened, with Liu Zhang's reputation as a butcher, they also know that there is no way out, so they will definitely step up the attack. In that case, Chengdu will
More dangerous.
I want to give the Chengdu thieves a fatal blow when they are most careless. If their rebellion has succeeded, I can also catch them off guard.
After the military meeting ended, Liu Zhang put on his light clothes again and casually said to Ye Wutiedao: "By the way, does your Majesty know the place called Dashi Valley?"
"Dashi Valley?" Ye Wutie pondered for a moment: "I have the impression that this place is at the junction of our western Youxi and Bajun. It is a place that neither of us cares about because it is desolate.
There are almost no people around. Oh, by the way, it seems that the rebels in Jiangzhou came out from this direction this time. They made a huge noise when they came out. They seemed to have been prepared for it, which is completely different from sudden rebellions in other places."
Liu Zhang frowned. Since Qu Lingchen left such a note, he also stopped by and went to see it.
Just when the seven hundred warriors of Chenxi were gathering together and the personal soldiers were gathering to stand by, another group of people came from the east, and the leader was Bao'er, the young lord of Wuxi.
"General, Bao'er is here to help you. My father said to help the general suppress the rebellion, and we in Wuxi are willing to do our best to help." Bao'er said to Liu Zhang in a sunny manner.
"Bullshit, if he wasn't so powerful that he wanted to come out, and some people couldn't persuade him, so he could only say that he would help the general put down the rebellion on his behalf, would some people come out?"
"Hua Boy, do you want to die?" Bao'er hit Hua Boy at once.
Huahai'er hid for a moment, then turned to Liu Zhang and said, "General, I, the Wuxi people, have always been upright and upright. We can't help you this time because we have noticed those assassins a long time ago."
Everyone looked at each other.
Huahai'er continued without changing his expression: "At that time, we thought it was sent by the general to deal with us Wuxi, so we kept silent. Unexpectedly, we misunderstood the general and almost caused the general to suffer a catastrophe. Please, please
General, forgive me."
"What, what if we..." Hu Che'er just yelled and was stopped by Wang Xu.
Liu Zhang smiled and said: "The thoughts of Lord Baojin and the people of Wuxi are reasonable. If it were me, I would do the same. I said why entering Wuxi was so smooth at that time. You have kept your feelings secret."
Liu Zhang laughed.
The flower boy also laughed, cupped his hands and said, "Thank you, General, for your kindness. The three thousand Wuxi warriors behind me are at your disposal."
…
The warriors of Wuxi were warriors who had just returned from Jingzhou. Therefore, they gathered quickly. The personal soldiers, Chenxi warriors, and Wuxi warriors totaled about 5,000 people. Liu Zhang led 5,000 people out of Wuxi. Warriors joined the team along the way.
, after crossing Youxi River, nearly 8,000 people descended secretly from the deserted land to the west of Youxi River.
When they arrived near Dashi Valley, Liu Zhang sent people to check. The two groups of people couldn't find anything. Liu Zhang didn't believe that Qu Lingchen would write a random place name. He sent a third group of people, and this time they finally found out the clues.
Dashi Valley is an empty valley, but when the third group of people secretly passed by, they saw a group of people entering from the entrance of the valley, and then pushed away a few large rocks in the valley leaning against the mountain wall, revealing caves, and then from inside the caves
Pulled out the grain.
Judging by the way those people were dressed, there was no doubt that they were Wu Jun's rebels.
Liu Zhang had already heard Qu Lingchen tell him about the anti-Liu Zhang alliance, and after listening to the soldiers' reports, Liu Zhang really didn't expect that Qu Lingchen would tell him about the anti-Liu Zhang alliance's grain and grass base.
This Dashi Valley should be the home base of the Anti-Liu Zhang Alliance. It belongs to the territory of the Liang Guan, so it is really an excellent base.
Liu Zhang sent a team of people to blockade the Dashi Valley and kill all the rebels guarding the grain in the cave. He then notified Ye Wutie to take people down the mountain, transport all the grain to Wuxi, and then led his troops to continue eastward.
If the rebels run out of food and fodder, it would be a joke for Fazheng Dong and Li Hui to still not be able to put down the rebellion. Fazheng also knows that the rebellion in Chengdu is strong, and rushing back on his own will not be of much use. It is better to put down the rebellion in Jiangzhou after
, go back with the army, then even if Chengdu falls, you can still fight it.
Qu Lingchen watched the barbarians carrying bags of grain up the mountain on a mountain ridge, his face sinking like water.
"Leader, I didn't mean to do this. You have a blood feud with him, so you are united together. You also take good care of Ling Chen. Ling Chen just hopes that he can successfully complete his ideals and achieve his great cause. Leader, forgive me.
I."
…………
After crossing the south of Jiangzhou, along the Yangtze River, we arrived at the border of Jiangyang, near the Tuojiang River, and were about to go north. Suddenly a pair of soldiers and horses came from the opposite side of the Yangtze River. Both sides emerged from the jungle. They met each other and immediately warned each other.
.
The water of the Yangtze River flows calmly.
Liu Zhang looked over intently. He saw that the troops on the opposite side were dressed in rags, either rags or animal skins. Because it was summer, many of them only wore underpants. They had a variety of weapons. They must be a group of barbarians.
The leader was a female general, whose appearance could not be seen clearly from a distance. All she could see was that she was shirtless and had feathers on her head.
"Who are you?"
Before Hu Che'er came out of the queue, the female general on the other side shouted first, her voice was loud, crisp and sweet, mixed with a sense of momentum, and she was dancing with a stick eight feet long in her hand, she was really a heroine.
"We are under the command of Yizhou Mu Liu Huangshu, the Han general Liu Zhang, Marquis of Shu, are you Nanzhong barbarians?" Hu Che'er shouted according to Liu Zhang's instructions.
The other party was talking a lot, and then the female general shouted: "It turns out they are Liu Zhang's people. Liu Zhang is dead, why are you still so crazy? We are part of the Seventh Department of Nanzhong. What are you barbarians? Be careful, I will tear your mouth apart."
.”
"You..." Hu Che'er had been insulted like this and was about to step forward to argue. Liu Zhang pulled him back and shouted to the person opposite: "I am the pastor of Yizhou, Liu Zhang. Fortunately, you are not dead yet. You Nanzhong
Are people going to set foot on Han soil?"
Liu Zhang's deep voice was filled with momentum.
"Liu Zhang?" The barbarians were talking louder, and all the barbarians looked frightened. The female general waved her hand, and two barbarians crossed the bridge and came to inquire. They probably recognized Liu Zhang. It wasn't until they saw Liu Zhang's appearance clearly that they
He was shocked and hurriedly went over to report back. After a while, the female general led all the barbarian troops across the river.
The female generals should bow down first: "The daughter of King Roashui, the owner of Xieprick Cave in Nanzhong, and Zhu Rong, the young lord of Xieprick Cave. See Uncle Liu Huang, the shepherd of Yizhou."
"As expected, they are Nanzhong barbarians. What do you want to do here? Do you know that we are in trouble in Yizhou and are you coming to rob us?" Liu Zhang asked coldly.
Liu Zhang deliberately added the word "barbarian", but Zhu Rong was not as angry as before. He smiled softly and said seriously: "How dare you? Uncle Liu is very caring about the barbarians in Nanzhong. This time I heard that there is a little trouble in Yizhou. I am in Nanzhong."
The mountain kings who were the masters of the caves in the seven tribes were very angry and expressed their intention to help the emperor's uncle put down the rebellion.
The woman is even more indignant. The emperor's uncle is the figure that the little girl admires the most. If anything happens to Uncle Liu Huang, I will chop off the heads of those traitorous dogs and make them into wine."
"Zhu Rong?" Liu Zhang pondered for a moment and looked at the female general carefully. She wore a metal halo on her head, with three feathers on each side, and a protective wing on her forehead. She trembled and trembled with Zhu Rong's movements.
With a delicate face and stern eyes. Carrying five flying knives on her back, she is both beautiful and powerful.
He was shirtless, but he didn't look rude, and he had a sly smile on his face, which made him even more enchanting.
It turns out that there are clear grievances in the novel. Mrs. Zhu Rong, the wife of the Barbarian King Meng Huo, who has excellent martial arts and stunning appearance, is known as the "thorn beauty". She looks like this and looks only seventeen or eighteen years old. It is hard to imagine that she can actually be with Zhao Yun.
He fought against the enemy for dozens of rounds without losing, but in the end he fell into a trap and was captured.
Liu Zhang didn't expect Zhu Rong to be so eloquent. Hearing her coaxing tone when she was facing him just now, it was clear that she was taking advantage of the chaos to rob him. After knowing that he was still alive, he immediately changed his face and turned against her faster than turning the page of a book.
However, Liu Zhang didn't care about it. This was human nature. He smiled and said: "Mrs. Zhu Rong, oh no, Young Lord Zhu Rong, Yizhou Xiaoxiao, I have my own countermeasures. I accept your kindness and I'm going to go now."
To counter the rebellion, if you are willing to follow, then follow, if you don’t want to follow, just do what you want.”
Liu Zhang has 8,000 men under his command. Although it is much more than the original 5,000, he is still not 50% sure that he can quickly put down the rebellion in Chengdu. Seeing that there are about 5,000 Nanzhong barbarians behind Zhu Rong, if they join, the certainty will be greatly increased.
However, although Liu Zhang wanted Zhu Rong to join him in his heart, he could not say it directly, otherwise it would make these people feel contemptuous, so it would be better not to let go of these five thousand people.
Zhu Rong hesitated for a moment and immediately said loudly: "It is an honor for me as a warrior in Nanzhong to fight with the general. It is also what I, Zhu Rong, look forward to day and night. I have the opportunity today. How can I let it go, even if I follow the general for a while?
No matter what happens, this life will not be wasted. Zhu Rong is willing to go through fire and water for the general."
In the past six years, Liu Zhang only appeased and befriended the barbarians in Nanzhong and gave many benefits, which was regarded as a favor. But this year, Liu Zhang's reputation had already spread to Nanzhong. Liu Zhang's power, coupled with the historical strength of the Han people,
The barbarians in Nanzhong are still very afraid of Liu Zhang.
Had it not been for hearing that Liu Zhang was dead and giving the Nanzhong barbarians a thousand courage, they would not have dared to send so many people to invade the Han Dynasty. When he saw that Liu Zhang was still there, Zhu Rong's mind flashed.
If he gives up at this time, he will not only expose his purpose and make Liu Zhang dissatisfied, but Zhu Rong is also completely convinced that judging from Liu Zhang's performance this year, no matter how long it takes, he will definitely be able to put down the rebellion. As long as he follows Liu Zhang, he will definitely make money.
Some benefits.
Anyway, robbery is also a benefit, and helping to suppress rebellion is also a benefit, but they are not all the same.
After Zhu Rong thought about it, he immediately agreed to follow Liu Zhang.
Liu Zhang led more than 13,000 people along the Tuojiang River and through the jungle toward Chengdu. Many Nanzhong barbarians were familiar with the terrain in this area. With them leading the way, the speed accelerated a lot.
…………
Chengdu.
Deng Xian was responsible for the defense of Chengdu, but within one day, the rebel forces of the Shi clan reached 20,000 people. Many generals in the Sichuan army who had connections with the Shi clan, whether they were from wealthy families or not, immediately defected when they saw the power of the Shi clan and Liu Zhang's death.
Deng Xian finally had less than 5,000 people left.
"Deng Xian, don't you know yet? Your Deng family has joined Wu Jun's rebel army in Jiangzhou. As a descendant of the Deng family, how can you be so stubborn? Surrender as soon as possible. I will protect you as General Zuo and make you Marquis of Jiangyang. How can you do that?
?”
Mr. Yan was sitting on the chair with his eyes closed. Yin Yuan stepped forward and yelled at the city.
Just after he finished roaring, a sharp arrow was shot, and Deng Xian's voice sounded from the tower: "Old dog, who do you think you are? Only generals and emperors can make General Zuo, how dare you, a pariah like you, dare to make him a marquis or general?"
My lord has shown me a great kindness. The Deng family members were once spared by my lord, but now they have to repay their kindness with hatred. Loyalty and filial piety cannot be both balanced. I, Deng Xian, can only die to protect my integrity and follow my lord in the sky."
Deng Xian said loudly, in fact, he was heartbroken when the Deng family members followed Wu Jun in the rebellion. If the Sichuan army had the upper hand now, Deng Xian would definitely be dismissed from office, because the family members' rebellion failed, and he would have no shame to live.
But now the Sichuan army is in crisis. Deng Xian is loyal and loyal. Liu Zhang not only supported him, but also treated his clan members with kindness and justice in Jiangzhou. What reason did he have to rebel?
Now that the rebels have an absolute advantage, Yizhou is in danger.
It is a foregone conclusion that the tribesmen will succeed in their rebellion and enjoy all the glory, but he disdains this glory and would rather die in battle to be worthy of Liu Zhang.
"If you are stubborn, attack the city." Yin Yuan shouted, and the rebels swarmed up and rushed towards the tower like ants.
The Sichuan Army organized a resistance, and a soldier came to report: "General, the city can no longer be defended, and more and more rebels are gathering in the city. They are now attacking the city wall in several groups."
Several generals were very worried when they heard this. Deng Xian frowned. There was a joint rebellion inside and outside the city. How could thousands of his men hold on? He held the hilt of his sword tightly.
