Chapter 242: Liu Chan can't beat him, and he still wants to beat Liu Bei?

King Zhurong was reluctant to send troops to attack Chengdu, but now that he saw that there were really 20,000 soldiers in the city, he was even more heartbroken, and he only felt that the end of the barbarians was coming.

Therefore, now that he reads Liu Chan's letter, he immediately has the idea of defecting.

Although King Zhurong is not a wise man, he is not too stupid.

After some analysis, he gradually understood the key to the matter.

Liu Chan has 20,000 elite soldiers, as well as fierce generals like E Huan and Liu Yin, who came out to face each other head-on, and King Zhurong asked himself, although they have 20,000 soldiers and horses in the coalition army, it is unlikely that they are Liu Chan's opponents.

It's just that why does Liu Chan want him to deal with Yonghong and Zhu Bao? Why did Liu Chan bent on wooing him?

After reading this letter, King Zhurong finally understood.

Because Liu Chan needs a stable Nanzhong.

Now he, Yonghong, and Zhu Bao are all here in Chengdu.

Why did Liu Chan win over him, the barbarian king, instead of Yonghong, who is also a Han person, Zhu Bao?

Because Yonghong Zhu Bao is a strong man in Nanzhong, and he also has an official position, they raised troops to attack Chengdu, which is equivalent to a traitor, and Hao imposed the identity of a traitor, which is destined that Liu Chan will not accept Yonghong and Zhu Bao, this kind of person is not worth wooing, and Liu Chan is even more reluctant to woo.

And he Zhurong King is different, he is the king of the barbarians, although he has brought out 30,000 soldiers and horses at the moment, but in Nanzhong, there are still a large number of barbarians, and there are tens of thousands of soldiers and horses from all over the country.

He wished that King Rong was the object worth wooing.

As for whether Liu Chan will do anything to him after he defects, King Zhurong is not worried, since Liu Chan wants a stable Nanzhong, then Liu Chan will not do anything to him.

Because as soon as he dies, Nanzhong will be in chaos.

Thinking of this, King Zhurong's tense heart finally relaxed.

"Let's do it tonight!" King Zhurong gritted his teeth and decided to follow Liu Chan's arrangement.

"You guys come here!" King Zhurong beckoned, called a few henchmen and barbarian generals, and secretly gave orders.

Although King Zhurong had already decided to deal with Yonghong and Zhu Bao, the siege did not stop.

As soon as King Zhurong suddenly stopped attacking the city, he would summon Yonghong and Zhu Bao when he went back, and the two would definitely be suspicious. And the siege of the city until the evening return to the army, and then on the grounds of discussing the countermeasures to attack Chengdu, invite Yonghong, Zhu Bao to come over and take them down, will undoubtedly alleviate the doubts of the two.

The time soon came to the evening sunset, although the barbarians had siege equipment, but they were not good at attacking the city at all, and the day of the attack, even the head of Chengdu had not been touched.

Fortunately, King Zhurong had already decided to take refuge in Liu Chan, and in the afternoon, the soldiers and horses under his command only symbolically attacked, and there were not many soldiers and horses damaged.

"This Chengdu city can't be attacked, and the brothers are tired, let's go back and discuss it first, and think about it in the long run." King Zhurong sighed in embarrassment and led his troops back to the camp.

The other three city gates, were attacked by Meng Huo, Yonghong, Zhu Bao, sunset, they also had the idea of returning to the camp, seeing that King Zhurong led the troops to retreat, they also led the troops back to the camp one after another.

After King Zhurong returned to the camp, he called his henchmen and barbarian generals to the big tent.

In the big tent, Meng Xu's face was slightly gloomy, and from time to time he glanced at the head of King Zhurong and Shui Luoyi behind him, and there was a little struggle in his eyes, as if he was making some difficult decisions.

At noon, King Zhurong told his henchmen about the matter, and Meng Huo also got some rumors.

King Zhurong said to everyone: "A few days ago, Liu Chan showed those 20,000 soldiers and horses, I originally thought that the people were pretending, and today they attacked the city, they fought bravely, whether it was the soldiers or the people, I think you also have a plan in your heart!" ”

A barbarian general arched his hand and said: "King, it is indeed 20,000 soldiers, and now there are 20,000 soldiers in the city, and they can't attack it at all, how can this be good?" ”

"Yes, today we stormed for a day, and we didn't even touch the city, but the brothers suffered heavy casualties, so it's not a way to go on like this."

The barbarian kings and barbarian generals talked a lot, and their faces were a little gloomy.

King Zhurong clapped his palms and said: "Everyone, when we originally sent troops to Chengdu, we were bewitched by Cao Cao, and Liu Chan Shizi also kept sending people to contact me this time, asking me to kill Yonghong, and Zhu Bao will atone for his crimes." After thinking about it for the past few days, I decided to surrender to the prince, follow his advice, and make up for my mistakes, so as to keep my barbarian clan peaceful! ”

As soon as King Zhurong said this, the barbarian generals under his account discussed again.

There are opponents, and there are those who are in favor.

Of course, if these people are loyal to King Zhurong, and no one comes forward to oppose it, King Zhurong will order, and those who oppose it will also obey.

It's a pity that one of these people is Meng Huo.

When Meng Shu heard this, he immediately stood up and said, "King Zhurong, do you really want to surrender to Liu Chan and kill Yonghong, Zhu Bao?" ”

King Zhurong nodded and said: "Now there are 20,000 soldiers in Chengdu City, it is impossible for us to take Chengdu, we can't succeed here, or it won't be long before Cao Cao will retreat, and when Liu Bei returns to Yizhou, our barbarians are only afraid of suffering a catastrophe."

So now, let's surrender Liu Chan and make up for it, and when Liu Bei comes back, he won't do anything to us! I know you don't want to surrender, but I also think about the survival of our barbarians, and I hope you don't object. ”

Although Meng Huo has been co-opted by Yonghong and Zhu Bao, he is not very willing to meet with King Zhurong, he arched his hand and said: "King, I see that you surrender to Liu Chan and kill Yonghong and Zhu Bao, which will bring ruin to my barbarians!" ”

King Zhurong frowned: "Where did you start with this?" ”

Meng Shu said: "King, that Liu Chan is scheming and has used tricks repeatedly, just hoping that we will kill each other, how can you believe his words?" Once you kill Yonghong, Zhu Bao, our strength will be weakened, and Liu Chan will deal with you at that time.

It doesn't matter if Chengdu can't be taken, let's go back to Nanzhong, Liu Bei will return to Yizhou at that time, will it be possible to send troops to attack us? Nanzhong Mountain is far away, and he is still afraid of him, Liu Bei will not succeed? ”

Meng Huo was young and vigorous, and he felt that he had occupied Nanzhong, relying on the steepness and not afraid of Liu Bei.

But King Zhurong is very old, and he is afraid of Liu Beixiong, he patted the table and said:

"Liu Bei has hundreds of thousands of armored soldiers, all of whom are elites, you have also seen these days, the prince of the world uses some unknown young generals, more than 1,000 soldiers and horses will defeat you tens of thousands of soldiers and horses, you are the first general of my barbarian tribe who can fight well.

When the time comes, Zhao Yun, Zhang Fei, Ma Chao under Liu Bei, those world-famous big people will attack, why should you deal with them. ”
