Imperial Power Of Han Dynasty

Chapter 821: Self-defeating

Chapter 821

The army returned to the camp, but Jia Xu followed Liu Ye with a smile on his face.

"The reason why the general did not order the siege of Chengdu today is probably because he has a good plan in his heart?"

Jia Xu said.

Liu Ye smiled slightly: "Oh? This general just ordered a slow attack on Chengdu. Why does Wenhe think that this general has already made a decision?"

Jia Xu smiled and said: "The general is like a god. He must know that if Zhang Ren is allowed to return to the city, he will definitely recruit young people from the city to help defend the city. In addition, Chengdu is rich in grain and grass, and the city is strong. At that time, he wanted to capture Chengdu. It would cost several times the effort, and the general would certainly not be so unwise."

Liu Ye stared at Jia Xu blankly, and suddenly laughed: "Wenhe is really smart, hahaha."

Jia Xu just smiled and didn't speak.

"According to me, I will order and order the Chinese military officer to bring this letter to Liu Zhang!"

...

Inside Chengdu City.

"The final general is defeated, please order the punishment from the lord."

Zhang Ren knelt on the ground and hugged Liu Zhang.

Liu Zhang's face was ashen as hell, and he waved his hand: "Let's supervise the chief."

"The final general is defeated, and there is a heavy trust from the lord, the lord must be punished."

"Punish? Will you be punished, Liu Yuqing will retreat?"

Liu Zhang gave a sorrowful smile: "I had known that it would be better to surrender directly to the city. It would have avoided the disaster of swordsmen."

Hearing Liu Zhang's words, Zhang Ren couldn't help but frown: "Master, there are still tens of thousands of young people in Chengdu who can be recruited to help defend the city. There is sufficient food and grass to last for at least one year. Why did the master surrender?"

Huang Quan on the side also nodded and said, "Yes, Lord, before our army is exhausted, the Lord does not have to surrender."

"I'm tired, go in and rest for a while."

Liu Zhang did not respond to the two of them, but just stood up and walked in.

Zhang Ren and Huang Quan looked at each other and frowned.

"Because of this big defeat, the lord has no fighting spirit, alas!" Huang Quan sighed.

Zhang Ren calmly said: "The key now is to mobilize the young people in the city to prevent the enemy from attacking the city. Since the lord is unwilling to intervene in this matter, I have to wait and see."

Huang Quan raised his brows: "General Governor, you?"

"I've just forgotten it. As long as Zhang Song leads his army to resist a little bit, the Xiliang Army will never come so soon, I am afraid that Zhang Song will not resist at all."

"Zhang Song, like Meng Da, has also surrendered to the enemy?" Huang Quan asked in surprise.

Zhang Ren nodded and turned around.

"No matter what the lord thinks, I will fight to the last minute!"

After all, Zhang Ren walked out, and Huang Quan looked at Zhang Ren's straight spine, as if it was slightly bent.

"Ugh..."

...

With a calm face, Liu Zhang walked in his magnificent back garden with a sigh. There are many rare flowers and plants here. Liu Zhang has taken great efforts to concentrate the flowers and plants in Shuzhong here. He usually likes it here, but at the moment he stepped on a flower and grass, but he didn't even notice it.

"Daddy!"

Liu Xun walked to Liu Zhang's side with a serious expression and arched his hands.

"Xun'er? What's wrong?"

Seeing the eldest son, Liu Zhang tried his best to show a smile, but opened his mouth and turned into a wry smile.

Liu Xun took a few steps forward and said in a low voice: "Daddy, Liu Yuqing sent an emissary to see Daddy if he has something to do."

Liu Zhang was shocked: "The messenger of the general?"

He was taken aback for a moment, and then he was overjoyed: "Bring it up, hurry up!"

Liu Xun stepped back, leading a scribe to come up after a short while, and slightly bowed his hand to Liu Zhang.

"In the next Wangfu, I met Liu Yizhou."

"It turned out to be Mr. Wang, he really admired his name."

Liu Zhang hurriedly greeted Wang Fu to sit down, and couldn't wait to ask: "I don't know if Mr. is here, but does the general have any orders?"

Wang Fu nodded slightly and said slowly: "The general has something to say first. If Liu Yizhou is willing to surrender, he can be named a noble king, live in Luoyang, and keep his wealth forever."

"Huh? This..."

Liu Zhang is a Han dynasty clan with upright children and eight classics. It is also common sense to be crowned king, but he wants to move his home to Luoyang, which is definitely not as comfortable as Chengdu. But now there is no other choice, to be able to be named a king, and to maintain a lifetime of wealth, is already considered good.

"Mr. Wang, please report back to the general, Liu Zhang is willing to surrender, Liu Zhang is willing to surrender." Liu Zhang grabbed Wang Fu's hand and said eagerly.

"The general believes in Liu Yizhou's sincerity, but I am afraid there are still two-hearted people in the city." Wang Fu smiled.

"Ok?"

Liu Zhang didn't react for a while, but Wang Fu reminded him: "General Zhang Ren in the city, I'm afraid I am not willing to surrender?"

"Uh, yeah." Liu Zhang smiled awkwardly. He is weak, while Zhang Ren has always been a tough character. He insists on defending Chengdu. Liu Zhang has no choice but to default.

"Unexpectedly, the general has such an understanding of General Zhang's temperament, ha ha."

"The general is kind-hearted, and he doesn't want to attack the city, hurting his subordinates and Ding Zhuang in the city. Liu Yizhou should understand it?"

"Understanding..." Liu Zhang wiped the sweat from his forehead and nodded quickly.

"In that case, if Liu Yizhou surrenders, will Zhang Ren resolutely stop it?" Wang Fu said slowly.

Liu Xun interrupted and said: "Zhang Ren has served as the chief governor of the Yizhou Army for many years. He has always made a single decision and will never sit and watch my father surrender."

"In that case, it's better to get rid of it!"

Wang Fu said coldly: "Since this Ren is disobedient, Liu Yizhou is really good-tempered. Zhang Ren is just a man. How can he be bullied to Liu Yizhou? Now Liu Yizhou can order him to come to see him and lay his arms around. Taxi, catch him in one fell swoop, then open the door and surrender."

Liu Xun nodded and persuaded Liu Zhang: "Father, Zhang Ren will definitely not allow his father to surrender, and he will definitely stop him at that time. It's better to take this opportunity to catch him and show his sincerity to the general. ."

Liu Zhang was vacillating. After all, although Zhang Ren had a tyrannical character, he was loyal to him, and he couldn't bear to act for a while.

"Does Liu Yizhou intend to coexist and die with the city, and he does not want to be crowned king?" Wang Fu said meaningfully.

"father!"

"...Okay, I understand. Tomorrow I will prepare a soldier, capture Zhang Ren, and then Kaicheng surrender to the general."

Liu Zhang finally settled his attention, and Wang Fu nodded with satisfaction: "Liu Yizhou made a smart choice, so that 100,000 soldiers and civilians in Chengdu can be saved from war. The general must be satisfied."

After Liu Zhang made the decision, it seemed that he was much easier: "Please report to the general, and tomorrow a certain will surrender."

"It's easy to say that XX returned to camp and went back to life."

After all, Wang Fu walked back with a smile on his face. After Wang Fu left, Liu Zhang's expression became complicated, and he went through a complicated ideological struggle in his mind.
