Chapter 207
Zhang Wei listened to Yang Song's words, and lowered his head in shame, ashamed.
Zhang Lu asked Yang Song: "What do you think should be done now?" Yang
Song sighed: "Although I am close to Chao Rui, but this kind of thing, I'm afraid he won't go uninvestigated
!" Zhang Lu shook his head: "Zhang Wei is my own brother, if Chao Rui wants to kill me, I will definitely turn against him!"
Yang Song also shook his head: "Lord, if you turn your face with Chao Rui, Cao Cao will break through Chengdu, and he will definitely attack Hanzhong, I'm afraid that you and General Zhang Wei will be ..."
"How is this good?" Zhang Lu shook his head, pretending to be annoyed.
Zhang Wei suddenly said: "Lord, I have a plan
!" "Say!" Zhang Lu nodded.
Zhang Wei said: "Chao Rui is here, just to persuade me to surrender Hanzhong, if you agree to surrender to the imperial court, then..." Yang Song immediately said: "
Then Chao Rui will definitely not continue to pursue this matter
!" "Yes!" Zhang Wei nodded.
Zhang Lu shook his head: "What about
Fazheng?" "Kill it!" Yang Song made a motion to wipe his neck: "When the time comes, there will be no proof of death
!" "It makes sense!" Zhang Lu nodded and said to Yang Song: "You go to kill Fazheng, I will take Zhang Wei to see Chao Rui tomorrow!" "Okay!" Yang Song
nodded and immediately left the cell.
After a while, I came to report Zhang Lu.
"Lord, Fa Zheng is dead
!" "Okay!" Zhang Lu nodded with satisfaction, and Zhang Wei also breathed a sigh of relief.
Early the next morning, Zhang Lu and Yang Song took Zhang Wei and Fa Zheng's bodies to Chao Rui to meet each other.
The two sides saluted each other.
Then, Yang Song spoke: "Lord Sacrificial Wine, the matter has been clarified!" "
How is it?" Chao Rui asked Yang Song.
Yang Song said: "It was Fa Zheng's doing, the corpse is here!" Chao
Rui looked down, and then nodded: "It's good to be dead
!" Zhang Lu smiled and said: "Virtuous son-in-law, Zhang Wei is indeed involved in this matter, but he really doesn't know about it!"
"Is it?" Chao Rui was surprised.
"That's right!" Zhang Wei nodded: "Fa Zheng's intentions are sinister, and Liu Bei is also a sinister villain, so he should be killed
!" "Huh?" Chao Rui was surprised: "Why did the general say this?"
Zhang Wei said: "Returning to the imperial court is the best choice for my Hanzhong!" "That's right!" Zhang Lu nodded: "After the virtuous son-in-law and my daughter get married, I, Zhang Lu, will lead Hanzhong to return to the imperial court!" "My father-in-law
is
wise!" Chao Rui hurriedly clenched his fists and signaled.
"Hahaha!" Zhang Lu laughed: "Then the assassination matter can be regarded as a turning page
!" "Of course!" Chao Rui nodded: "This little thing is not enough to worry about
!" "Hmm!" Zhang Lu nodded with satisfaction.
A few days later, Chao Rui married his daughter Zhang Qiying in Nanzheng.
That night, the Chinese and Chinese warriors came to Xingyuan to congratulate each other and give generous gifts.
Chao Rui and the guests kept pushing the cups and changing the lamps, and returned to the wedding room that night to enjoy the Spring Festival.
And Fazheng's head was also sent back to Chengdu.
Liu Bei hugged the box and cried.
"Filial piety, filial piety
!" "Why did you die?"
"I'm sorry for you!" "I hurt you
!" "Hey!" Zhuge Liang sighed: "Lord, let's mourn and change
!" Liu Bei shook his head: "Once Fa Zheng dies, I will never ally with
Zhang Lu again!" Zhuge
Liang also shook his head: "Lord, as soon as Fa Zheng dies, Zhang Lu will inevitably return to the imperial court, and Chengdu may not be able to hold it!"
Liu Bei suddenly fell silent and didn't say anything, as if he had become a statue.
Not long after, Hanzhong announced his return to the imperial court.
Cao Cao crowned Zhang Lu as the general of Zhennan, the Marquis of Xiangping, and had 10,000 households.
He ordered his family to move to Yecheng, and Xiahou Yuan sent troops from Chang'an to take over Hanzhong.
Xiahou Yuan's army arrived in Hanzhong and discussed countermeasures with the military advisor Jiu Chaorui overnight.
Chao Rui and Xiahou Yuan had the same attitude, transferred Chang'an and Hanzhong soldiers and horses, attacked Yizhou from Fushui Pass, and besieged Chengdu in the north and south.
Three days later, more than 100,000 troops marched from Hanzhong.
All the way through the level, it only took half a month to kill to the north of Chengdu.
When other counties in Yizhou heard the news, they defected to the imperial court.
At this point, Chengdu has become a real isolated city.
The inhabitants of the city were terrified.
The soldiers were also war-weary.
The pressure was on Liu Bei.
Liu Bei was also very sad, sitting alone in front of the steps late at night to bask in the moon.
The front foot died the strategist Fa Zheng, and the back foot Hanzhong surrendered to the imperial court.
Yizhou, it's gone.
Chengdu is a dead city.
It is impossible for Cao Cao to retreat, and he will definitely use all his strength to trap Chengdu.
"Lord, it's late at night, aren't you still sleeping?" Zhuge Liang came quickly.
Liu Bei shook his head: "How can I sleep?" "
Hey!" Zhuge Liang sighed, and then sat with Liu Bei.
Liu Bei asked: "Military advisor, how long do you think Chengdu can be defended
?" Zhuge Liang said: "Before Hanzhong surrendered, it could hold on for at least a year and a half, and now I'm afraid it won't be able to survive this winter!"
"Why?" Liu Bei asked Zhuge Liang.
Zhuge Liang said: "Cao Jun is digging the river and wants
to flood Chengdu next spring!" Liu Bei shook his head: "Chengdu is extremely high, and it is by no means easy to flood Chengdu
!" "It's not easy!" Zhuge Liang shook his head: "Cao Cao is even more difficult to do this!" "
Then why does Cao Cao still do it?" Liu Bei asked Zhuge Liang.
"Because he can only do this!" Zhuge Liang sighed: "The hearts of the soldiers in the city will be even more flustered, and it is already the norm for the people to flee!" "
Hey!" Liu Bei let out a long sigh, and he became much older in an instant.
Zhuge Liang said again: "Does the lord want to live and die with Chengdu, or do you want to
find another way out?" "Can you still find another way out?" Liu Bei never thought of coexisting and dying with Chengdu.
His roots are in Hebei, and he has only been in Chengdu for a year and a half, so he can't talk about any feelings.
Just like Jingzhou back then, you just can't beat it.
Zhuge Liang said: "Liang has a strategy!" "
What strategy?" Liu Bei asked Zhuge Liang.
Zhuge Liang said: "To the west of Chengdu, Cao's army has the weakest defense
, and the terrain is dangerous!" "The lord can choose the opportunity to lead his troops to escape from Chengdu, escape into the southwest mountains, and rush all the way to Nanzhong to join Ma Chao
!" "At that time, we can unite with Meng Shu and Shixie to resist Cao Cao together
!" "Hey!" Liu Bei sighed: "How easy is it? Not to mention abandoning Chengdu like this, I can't bear it!" Zhuge
Liang said:
"You can't have both fish and bear's paws!" Liu
Bei shook his head: "I understand the truth!" Zhuge Liang said again: "Chengdu is already a chicken rib, the food is tasteless, and it is a pity to abandon it
!" "Hmm!" Liu Bei nodded: "Then ask the military advisor to arrange the retreat, and choose the opportunity to retreat!"
"Obey!" Zhuge
Liang arched his hand.
Liu Bei suddenly asked: "Chao Rui, is it really Cao Cao's grandson?" Zhuge
Liang: "This..." Liu Bei asked again: "If the world is obtained by Cao Cao, Chao Rui is called the emperor, will the world be peaceful?"
"Not necessarily!" Zhuge Liang shook his head: "This world is originally a big Han, as long as the lord is here, the big man is here
!" "
Well said, well said!" Liu Bei nodded again and again.
