670 is confident
Zhang Fei and others not only killed Gao Pei and Yang Huai, but also occupied the city, and the soldiers in the city believed it to be true, thinking that it was really Gao Pei and Yang Huai who rebelled and were killed, and they were always kept in the dark.
Next, Yan Yan lied that he was ordered by Liu Zhang to take over all the troops in the city, Leng Bao was falsely appointed as Yan Yan's deputy general, and Pang Xi was still the Taishou of Guanghan.
As for Zhang Fei's existence, it has not been mentioned to the public, after all, this is the most secret part of the whole plan. Moreover, Yan Yan and Leng Bao are both famous generals in Sichuan, and they have a high influence in the entire Sichuan military system, so those soldiers also believe their words.
Leng Bud washed the Governor's Mansion in blood, and then Zhang Fei and the others spent another night, according to the information provided by Pang Xi, and began to search for Gao Pei and Yang Huai's remnants all over the city.
Zhang Fei is not a fool either, although he knows that this is more or less a bit of a feeling of being used by Pang Xi, but at this juncture, he would rather kill a thousand by mistake than let go of one. As the saying goes, one will succeed and ten thousand bones will wither, and now is not the time for Zhang Fei to be soft-hearted.
Tonight is destined to be an extraordinary night, the originally quiet city was made by Pang Xi. Pang Xi took advantage of this excellent opportunity to compile a list at will, and pushed all of them to the side of Gao Pei and Yang Huai's Yu Dang, including the real Yu Dang, as well as some people who had offended Pang Xi before, and some people that Pang Xi hated.
All in all, who is Gao Pei and Yang Huai's remaining party, Pang Xi said.
As long as they are included in the list, all the children of the family must be killed, and no one can be left, so as not to cause disasters in the future.
Zhang Fei and Fa Zheng are sitting in the Taishou Mansion. Yan Yan, Leng Bao, Peng Tuo and others led soldiers and horses around the city to arrest and kill people. It was a whole night. Only then did all the remnants of the so-called Gao Pei and Yang Huai be killed.
In normal times, when Yan Yan, Leng Bao, and Peng Tuo all dragged their tired bodies to the Taishou Mansion and told Zhang Fei that their task was completed, at that moment, the happiest person was Pang Xi.
In the second year of Pang Xi's reign as the Taishou of Guanghan, Liu Zhang dispatched his henchmen Gao Pei and Yang Huai to Luocheng in Zhang Ren's Jianyi, and took over all the 20,000 soldiers and horses originally stationed in Luocheng and commanded by Pang Xi. Organized into the left army and the right army, Gao Pei and Yang Huai each led an army and served as the governor.
Although Pang Xi was dissatisfied in his heart, he also knew that Liu Zhang favored Zhang Ren, even if he played Liu Zhang. It's also useless, but it will cause a lot of commotion. Thus began his years-long forbearance. During this period, Zhang Ren's power was in full swing, and many people secretly took refuge, and Zhang Ren's power was like a pair of huge invisible hands, always blocking Pang Xi's head, and Pang Xi could only survive under Zhang Ren's shadow.
Now, Pang Xi finally found an opportunity, how could he let it go, so he took the opportunity to compile a list and kill all those who had offended him, and the flaws would be rewarded.
Zhang Fei will not be unaware of this, but now is still the time to need Pang Xi, and Pang Xi is a person who knows the current affairs very well, if it weren't for his knowledge of current affairs, he might not have achieved such a great success last night. Counting up, Pang Xi has merit.
The dust and mist gradually dissipated, the sunlight penetrated the haze, and sprinkled his warm light all over the earth, Zhang Fei sat in the Taishou Mansion, and in front of him stood Fa Zheng, Yan Yan, Leng Bao, Peng Tuo, Pang Xi and others, all of whom had not slept all night, just like them.
Now that the city has been taken down, this is equivalent to opening the door to Chengdu, Zhang Fei borrowed Yan Yan and Leng Bao's prestige in the army, and he played triumphant songs all the way, winning one after another, but he was not proud of it. Because Zhang Fei knows that the reason why he can achieve such excellent results now is due to Yan Yan and Leng Bao, these famous generals in Sichuan, and he also knows that the Sichuan army has a large number of troops, and once the Sichuan army reacts, his life may not be better.
It is reported that there are 50,000 troops stationed in the suburbs of Chengdu alone, plus 20,000 standing soldiers and horses stationed in Chengdu, which means that in front of Zhang Fei and others are as many as 70,000 soldiers of the Sichuan army. Putting aside the 70,000 Sichuan Army soldiers for a moment, the name alone was enough to make everyone present feel panicked.
The reason why Zhang Ren was able to get Liu Zhang's trust is not unreasonable, this person is strong in martial arts, outstanding marksmanship, skilled in bows and horses, in addition, Zhang Ren also has excellent wisdom and extraordinary military command ability, this person can be described as a figure with both civil and military skills.
In the entire Yizhou, whether it is a civil official or a military general, as long as Zhang Ren is mentioned, there is no one who does not admire his talent, even famous generals like Yan Yan and Leng Bao are also afraid of Zhang Ren.
In the hall of the Taishou Mansion in Luocheng, Zhang Fei rubbed his red eyes and said to everyone: "You are all tired all night, let's have a good rest during the day today, and after the rest, it is not too late to send troops to Chengdu!" ”
As soon as these words came out, everyone present except Zhang Fei and Peng Tuo looked at each other, Yan Yan and Leng Bao's faces showed a trace of embarrassment, and Pang Xi wanted to speak and stopped.
After Zhang Fei noticed this detail, he took the initiative to ask, "What's wrong with you?" ”
Pang Xi spoke first and said, "Lord, do you really plan to send troops to Chengdu in the near future?" ”
Zhang Fei nodded and said: "The soldiers are very fast, while the news from Chengdu has not yet been learned here, let's strike first and kill Liu Zhang by surprise, is there any problem with this?" ”
Pang Xi said: "There is a problem, and this problem will also be the biggest problem, the lord seems to have ignored a person, as long as this person is in Chengdu for a day, we don't want to get close to Chengdu." ”
Zhang Fei hurriedly asked, "Who has such great ability?" ”
"It's Zhang Ren." Yan Yan suddenly interjected, "Lord, Zhang Ren is a person who must not be ignored, and this person is also very powerful. ”
"How powerful? Now in my army, there are famous generals like General Yan and General Leng, and there are wise and resourceful people like Fa Xiaozhi, and there are also talented people like Pang Taishou, and they still have more than 30,000 soldiers and horses in their hands. What am I afraid of? ”
Leng Bao said bluntly: "The lord is not afraid. It's because the lord has not been in contact with Zhang Ren. I don't know what Zhang Ren is capable of. Although this person is full of power, he has to admit that this person is both civil and military, and he is one of the best generals in Sichuan. Maybe it's not the highest, but God has endowed this person with extraordinary talent, as long as he is allowed to lead troops to fight, he will basically win every battle, and this person often uses soldiers to be elusive, even in the face of the most powerful enemy, he can calmly break the ......"
Without waiting for Leng Bao to finish speaking, Zhang Fei interrupted Leng Bao's words and said with a smile: "How can you increase the morale of others and destroy your own prestige?" You're talking about him too superbly, aren't you? ”
Leng Bud wanted to say something. But he was stopped by Yan Yan and said directly to Zhang Fei: "Lord." We are not raising the morale of others and destroying our own prestige, but it is true. If the lord doesn't believe it, you can ask Fa Xiaozhi to see what he thinks of Zhang Ren. ”
Zhang Fei turned his head and looked at Fa Zheng, who had not said a word from beginning to end, but when he saw Fa Zheng frowning, there seemed to be a trace of melancholy on his face, and he was completely different from the confident Fa Zheng before.
"Strategist, what do you think?" Zhang Fei couldn't help but ask, he wanted to hear Fa Zheng's true thoughts.
Fa Zheng noticed that all the eyes in the hall were focused on his own person, he thought for a while, and said to Zhang Fei: "Lord, this person is indeed a general who is both civil and military, and is very good at using soldiers, but in terms of leading troops to fight, at least at present, in the Sichuan army, no one can compare with him." ”
Zhang Fei was puzzled for a while, he didn't expect Fa Zheng to respect Zhang Ren so much, and when he was a little overshadowed, he suddenly heard Fa Zheng's words turn around and said, "But ......"
"But what?" Zhang Fei's eyes lit up, and he hurriedly asked.
Fa Zhengdao: "Anyone has weaknesses, as long as you find Zhang Ren's weaknesses, it will not be difficult to defeat him." ”
"Strategist, do you know what weaknesses Zhang Ren has?" Zhang Fei hurriedly asked.
"I don't know yet. There's one person who absolutely knows, though. "Fa Zhengdao.
"Who?" Zhang Fei asked.
Fa Zhengdao: "A strategist beside Liu Zhang, now he is driving for Yizhou, Zhang Song." ”
"Zhang Song is one of Liu Zhang's henchmen, even if he knows Zhang Ren's weakness, what can he do, how can he sue us?" Leng Bud sneered and muttered.
Fa Zheng smiled: "That's not necessarily, it's up to people." ”
As soon as Zhang Fei heard this, he knew that Fa Zheng was already confident, since he came into contact with Fa Zheng, Fa Zheng has always given Zhang Fei the feeling that it is quite mysterious, and every time at the most critical juncture, Fa Zheng always thinks of a way to solve the matter.
In addition, Li Yan took the initiative to surrender, which is also the credit of Fazheng. And Zhang Fei can conclude that Li Yan and Fa Zheng should have known each other a long time ago, and they have a very good relationship. Now, another Zhang Song has emerged, in Zhang Fei's opinion, this Zhang Song is Liu Zhang's confidant on the surface, maybe he actually has a better relationship with Fazheng than anyone else, it should also be Fazheng's old knowledge, right?
"Strategist, are you going to go to Chengdu and meet Zhang Song in person, so that he can tell you about Zhang Ren's weaknesses?" Zhang Fei boldly guessed.
Fa Zheng shook his head and said, "I have only met Zhang Song once, and I am not very familiar with each other, how could he tell me such important information?" ”
"And what do you mean by that? You might as well find Zhang Song, do you still want me to find Zhang Song? Zhang Fei was a little confused.
Fa Zheng smiled and said, "Lord, I didn't say that you should go to Zhang Song." However, I won't go to Zhang Song, at this juncture, I should honestly stay by the lord's side, give advice to the lord, judge the situation, if I leave, I'm worried that the lord's temper will come up, and he will directly lead the troops to attack Chengdu, which will be a big deal. ”
Zhang Fei said: "If I don't go, you won't go, so who will?" Could it be that Zhang Song will come here to sue us for Zhang Ren's weakness? ”
Fa Zheng nodded and said, "The lord is really getting smarter and smarter, and he even thought of this." ”
"What?" Zhang Fei couldn't believe his ears, and hurriedly asked, "Strategist, you're not joking, how could Zhang Song come here?" ”
Fa Zheng said: "He won't come over in person, Liu Zhang must send him over, so we need someone to go to Chengdu and report to Liu Zhang, just say that the lord has subdued Yan Yan, Leng Bao and others, and killed Gao Pei and Yang Huai, captured Pang Xi and Liu Xun, and after preparing to rest, he will attack Chengdu with a large army!" ”
"Strategist, what are you doing, we don't want to act in secret, why do you want to tell Liu Zhang about our every move?" Zhang Fei asked puzzled.
Fa Zhengdao: "Not only to sue Liu Zhang, but also to say that the matter is very urgent, only in this way will Liu Zhang send Zhang Ren to lead the army to attack Luocheng!" ”
"Strategist, you didn't think about how to deal with Zhang Ren, if Zhang Ren really came with troops, we couldn't resist it, wouldn't it be a failure?" Zhang Fei said.
"Don't worry, I can assure you that as long as we stay in the city, we will be fine. Ruocheng is a strong big city, the city has plenty of grain, the city defense is strong, and it is easy to defend and difficult to attack, as long as we hold on without fighting, Zhang Ren has no way to take us, so we will not have anything. The most important thing is that as long as Liu Zhang sends Zhang Ren to lead troops to attack Luocheng and rescue Liu Xun, then Zhang Song will definitely follow as a supervisor, and at that time, I will freely let Zhang Song tell me about Zhang Ren's weaknesses, and it is even possible for Zhang Song to join our army, and then assist the lord to deal with Zhang Ren together. "Fa Zhengdao.
Zhang Fei felt that what Fa Zheng said was becoming more and more inconsequential, and it seemed a little unrealistic, but at this time, the only thing he could believe was Fa Zheng. Of course, Zhang Fei also knew that Fa was selling off with him. Seeing that Fa Zheng's face did not have a trace of worry, and he looked confident, he didn't say anything anymore.
After thinking for a while, Zhang Fei said to everyone: "Okay, then do what the military advisor says." ”
Zhang Fei was relieved, but Yan Yan, Leng Bao, and Pang Xi were in the fog by Fa Zheng's words, and they didn't know whether what Fa Zheng said was reliable or not, since Zhang Fei chose to believe it, then they could only choose to believe it.
Next, Zhang Fei asked everyone to disperse and go back to rest, Zhang Fei deliberately let go of a soldier according to Fa Zheng's intentions, let him go to Chengdu, and report the news of his occupation of Ruocheng to Liu Zhang.
Here, Zhang Fei began to actively prepare for defense to deal with Zhang Ren's army. (To be continued......)
