Pang Xi surrendered to Zhang Xiu and was named General and Marquis. This incident caused an uproar in Shu.

Liu Yan was so angry that he gritted his teeth and even fell ill.

In the bedroom of Liu Yan's mansion in Chengdu.

Outside the door, there were two young maids standing guard, with a frightened look on their faces and at a loss.

There was a smell of medicine in the bedroom, which was very pungent.

Liu Yan was lying on the bed. Although it was Xia Tian, ​​he was covered with a thin quilt. His complexion was pretty good, but he couldn't help but be angry between his eyebrows.

Zheng Du, the prefect of Shu County, knelt in front of the bed, looking down at Liu Yan on the bed with his head slightly.

"Pang Xi and I are a family-friendly family. No one has betrayed me yet. He betrayed me first. He is really a sage, a sage."

Liu Yan was so angry that he cursed, so he was out of breath and then coughed. Zheng Du was not good at this and quickly called two maids at the door to come in. The maid picked up Liu Yan and sat up, touched his back to calm his breath, and gave Liu Yan water. After some operation, Liu Yan's breath calmed down.

"Lord. Don't be too angry now. If the lord is so angry, the whole Shuzhong will soon collapse."

Zheng Du arched his hands and his wide sleeves fell down, and he said sincerely.

Liu Yan thought that if he died, the great country in Bashu would have to hand over to Zhang Xiu.

"How are Yan Yan, Zhang Ren and Sun Jian's situation now?" Liu Yan took a few deep breaths, calmed his breath, sat at the head of the bed, pulled the quilt, and asked in a deep voice.

"Chengdu and Yizhou are too far apart, and there is no news about Sun Jian yet. But Sun Jian is a brave man and I believe he will definitely raise an army as soon as possible. As long as Sun Jian raises up, we will have more than 100,000 troops within Bashu. It is not impossible to drive Zhang Xiu out of Bashu, and it is even impossible to enter Hanzhong. If you can get Hanzhong, then Bashu will have a [home]. It will be difficult for Zhang Xiu to come in again."

Zheng Du said sincerely. But this is a big part of bragging. If it was so easy to talk too much, Zhang Xiu would have been burping a lot.

But to underestimate the enemy strategically, we must believe that we will definitely win a great victory.

After inspiring Liu Yan's morale, Zheng Du said excitedly: "As for Yan Yan, although he was frustrated at Micang Pass, he successfully withdrew his troops in Langzhong and the front line of Wakou Pass. In the city, the food and grass in the pass can be eaten and used for two years. Zhang Ren has retreated to Luocheng to protect the north of Chengdu. Support Yan Yan and Zhang Ren have the courage to be inappropriate. The two can protect the safety of Bashu."

Speaking of this, Zheng Du gave a thumbs up, repeatedly praised Yan Yan and Zhang Ren's brave and good at fighting.

Liu Yan nodded after hearing this. When he heard this, Bashu would be safe. Liu Yan said with relief: "Most civil officials are unreliable, but fortunately, most military generals support me. Yan Yan and Zhang Ren are famous generals in Bashu. With them in charge, I can rest assured."

After saying something, Zheng Du saw that Liu Yan looked tired from his eyebrows and eyes, so he personally helped Liu Yan lie down to rest, and then left Liu Yan's bedroom with a serious look on his face.

Of course things are not that easy.

After Zhang Xiu attacked Micang Pass, Bashu was really alive and dead.

"No matter what, I will never be a person like Pang Xi who has a bone-bone behind his head. I will do my best to plan for the lord to defend Bashu."

Zheng Du took a deep breath, his face showed a determined look like a military general, he clenched his fists and hurriedly left.

As the prefect of Shu County, he still has a lot to do.

Pang Xi surrendered to Zhang Xiu, which caused the shock.

Collect food and grass, train prepare people, and support Luocheng. He has to do as many things as mountains.

.........

Jingzhou.

Zhang Xiu began to destroy Western princes one by one, and Sun Jian was not idle either. After stabilizing Jingzhou, he quickly sent troops to Jiangdong.

Sun Jian has a strong military power, and he is a prominent family in Jiangdong. He quickly established a foundation in Jiangdong. He has basically unified Jiangdong and plans to cross the river to Shouchun and unify Yangzhou.

However, Sun Jian's eyes were not only staring at Yangzhou, but also at Zhang Xiu.

That morning.

Xiangyang, in the study room of Sun Jian’s mansion.

Sun Jian sat in the main seat, majestic and mighty, holding a sword in his left hand. Zhu Zhi was on the left and Kuai Yue was on the right. Both of them were very talented. Although Zhu Zhi was a military general, his aura was peaceful and could be both literary and martial.

Kuai Yue is even more planning to take charge.

"I heard that Zhang Xiu has gone to Hanzhong, and I am afraid Liu Yan can't stop it. I originally wanted to lead troops to attack Nanyang County and fight Huang Zhong. But Huang Zhong is indeed strong and has a strong and strong Wancheng. Even if I send troops, I am afraid that Zhang Xiu will not be able to shake the withdrawal of his troops."

Although Sun Jian was very powerful, he showed a look of worry. He then said, "I think if I could lead troops along the river to enter Bashu and participate in the war directly, I could also compete with Zhang Xiu, but I was afraid that Liu Yan would doubt me and would backfire."

"What the lord is worried about is that Liu Yan is suspicious. If we take the initiative to support Bashu, I'm afraid Liu Yan will doubt our intentions and will instead make Zhang Xiu cheaper."

"When we attack Nanyang and General Huang Zhong, we will not have actual results, but will lose our troops and lose our generals."

Kuai Yue bowed to Sun Jian and said.

Sun Jian, Kuai Yue, and Zhu Zhi were all helpless. The territory occupied by Zhang Xiu was really great. As long as Zhang Xiu defended Nanyang County in Jingzhou, Hulao Pass in Henan, and Hedong and Henei County, he could resist the heroes in the east.

Zhang Xiu was also aware of people. He used Xu Huang and Taishi Ci to guard Hedong and Henei counties, Zhang Liao to guard Hulao, and Huang Zhong to guard Nanyang.

In recent years, he and Cao Cao and Yuan Shao led their troops to test when Zhang Xiu sent troops to pacify Ma Teng and Han Sui.

But these people are really powerful, and they are very good at soldiers and food, so they can't do anything about it.

I don’t know how Zhang Xiu found these talents, but I can’t figure it out.

In short, Sun Jian was willing to interfere in Bashu, but he was at a loss. At this moment, a personal soldier walked in panting and bent over and reported: "Lord, Liu Yan, has sent someone."

"Oh?!" Sun Jian and the other two were surprised and then showed joy. Sun Jian raised his hand and said quickly, "Come in quickly."

"promise."

The personal soldiers responded and turned around and walked out. Not long after, a middle-aged literati was brought in by him. The literati said without nonsense, "I am a man from Liu Gong and have met General Sun. I came to ask General Sun for help."

Sun Jian and the other two expected it, so they were calm.

"What's going on in Bashu now? Where is Zhang Xiu's army?" Sun Jian asked in a deep voice after taking a deep breath.

Fei Jin told the truth. Sun Jian, Kuai Yue, and Zhu Zhi all changed their faces. Sun Jian couldn't hold back the air, suddenly stood up, pressed the sword and said, "Zhang Xiu actually entered Bazhong?"

The mountains are high and the road is far away, and the news is not smooth.

Sun Jian was not clear about the matter in Bashu. He only knew that Zhang Xiu began to attack Liu Yan. But unexpectedly, Zhang Xiu actually entered Bazhong.

This is really urgent. Sun Jian is very clear about the combat effectiveness of Zhang Xiu's army. Although Yan Yan and Zhang Ren from Bashu are outstanding, they will definitely not be able to stop Zhang Xiu.

Although Sun Jian was shocked, he was brave and had this intention. He immediately ordered: "Prepare the warship immediately and send troops to Bashu."

"promise."

Kuai Yue, Zhu Zhi responded heavily. Fei Shen showed joy and thanked him: "Thank you General Sun."

Sun Jian was indeed powerful, and the food and grass were arranged in one day. The next morning, Sun Jian personally put on his armor, took Kuai Yue with him, led 50,000 naval troops, searched thousands of warships, first along the river south to the Yangtze River, then turned west, and headed towards Bashu.

.............

Bazhong.

Outside Langzhong City.

Although many generals went south, Zhang Xiu's current troops still have nearly 100,000.

This 100,000 army surrounded the entire Langzhong City.

Zhang Xiu began to hold his troops still.

This made Yan Yan in the city very uneasy.

Yan Yan's mansion, in the study. Yan Yan sat in the main seat, a little restless, and stood up from time to time and paced back and forth.

"The military tactics were in full swing. After Zhang Xiu set up a camp, he did not attack the city quickly, but instead besieged me. He could not have no idea that the food in my city could be eaten for two years. He must have had other tricks."

What Zhang Xiu is powerful is not only the powerful troops in his hands, but also the advisers.

Yan Yan smelled the scent of conspiracy from Zhang Xiu's actions.

At this moment, Yan Ning hurried in from outside and bent over to report: "General. There is movement outside the city."

"Hmm?" Yan Yan felt a little happy, and asked, "But Zhang Xiu started to attack the city?"

Yan Ning was shocked, why did his uncle seem to be looking forward to Zhang Xiu's attack on the city?

After all, ginger is still so spicy, Yan Ning doesn’t have as much thought as Yan Yan.

"I don't know. But the soldiers saw some commotion in Zhang Xiu's camp, and it seemed that something had happened." Yan Ning shook his head and said.

"Prepare the horse, I'll go and see it." Yan Yan was a little disappointed, but still did not give up hope. Zhang Xiu might be preparing to attack the city.

He took a deep breath and waved his hand to order.

Not long after, Yan Yan, who put on iron armor and picked up a big sword, turned over the horse and led more than a hundred light cavalry to the north. After climbing to the city wall, Yan Yan's face suddenly turned ashen.

I saw that Zhang Xiu's camp outside the city was indeed moving. But there was no big army.

There were no siege equipment such as well cars and cloud ladders, and there were no soldiers. Only the people wearing various costumes came to the city.

Many of them were gray-haired old men, obviously they were highly respected people in the village. And they did not get close to them, standing outside the range of bows and arrows.

When Yan Yan saw this scene, he knew that Zhang Xiu had a trick.

But he had no way to deal with it.

Sure enough, the next moment, there were strong people in the crowd, fucking the very friendly local accent of the slap.

"Listen to the Bazhong brothers in the city. Now the Grand Sima is in charge of the court, and the country is peaceful and peaceful. Liu Yan is an old minister of the royal family, but he has the ambition to become emperor. The Grand Sima leads his troops south and does not mean to use swords and guns to the people of Bashu, but just to destroy Liu Yan. The court pacified Yizhou, and we are all peaceful and peaceful and peaceful, and live a good life. Why should we bleed for Liu Yan? All the old people present in the village, and the respected old people in your hometown. I hope you put down your weapons and open the city to surrender to the royal army."

These strong men were obviously selected. Not only did they speak the innocent Bazhong accent, but they also had a very loud voice and were full of energy. They didn't have so many skewers and were easy to understand.

After hearing this, Yan Yan's face turned even more pale. She turned around and looked at the city guards around her. Sure enough, all of them changed their faces.
