"Liu Bei?" Upon hearing the word Liu Bei, Deng Ai and Zhang Song looked at each other.
"If you have any news, just tell me!"
"My lord, Liu Bei is in Jianning and has assembled an army of 100,000 troops. Zhuge Liang wrote a revolt against the rebellion, saying that he would send troops to Chengdu in the near future."
"One hundred thousand troops?" Liu Cong was a little surprised when he heard this. One hundred thousand troops is not a small number. Even if Li Yan's army arrives, there will only be 80,000 troops gathered in Chengdu city at most. Of course, it is easy to defend the city. But Liu Cong's goal is to completely annihilate Liu Bei and completely occupy Yizhou. Otherwise, Liu Bei will always be a future trouble.
As for what Zhuge Liang wrote to criticize him, Liu Cong didn't care at all. During the Battle of Guandu, Chen Lin wrote an appeal against thieves for Yuan Shao, scolding three generations of Cao Cao's ancestors, but the result was that Yuan Shao was eventually destroyed by Cao Cao. Although there are many objective reasons for winning or losing a war, strength is the most important.
"Ma Chao brought 20,000 soldiers and horses, Liu Bei integrated 20,000 soldiers and horses from Hanzhong Yang Huai and others, Zhang Ren and Huang Quan withdrew 20,000 soldiers and horses from Shangyong, Guan Yu brought 20,000 soldiers and horses from Yongchang, a total of It¡¯s 80,000. In addition, the Southern Barbarian King Meng Huo gathered 20,000 troops and joined Liu Bei¡¯s army.¡± Zhang Song explained one by one.
"Ha" Liu Cong burst into laughter after hearing the situation of these 100,000 soldiers and horses, "Liu Bei's army looks large in number, but in fact it is just a pile of scattered sand. They all have their own agendas, just like the Kwantung princes did when they attacked Dong Zhuo. , they will eventually become birds and beasts and disperse, so there is nothing to fear!¡±
"My lord is right, how can these soldiers and horses compare with our Han army?" Deng Ai became proud after hearing Liu Cong's words, "If they come, they will be surrendered outside Chengdu city!"
"Okay, Shi Zai's words are encouraging!" Liu Cong looked very relaxed, "Yongnian, how long will it take for Liu Bei's army to reach Chengdu?"
"From Jianning to Chengdu, the road is difficult and dangerous, and the transportation of grain and grass is inconvenient, so it will take at least fifteen days."
"When will Li Yan arrive?"
¡°We can arrive in Chengdu tomorrow!¡±
"Okay, after Li Yan's army arrives, Chengdu's defense will be led by Deng Ai as the commander-in-chief, Fa Zheng as the military advisor, and Li Yan as the military commander. The three of them are fully responsible for the preparation of grain, grass, armor and equipment, and the comfort of the people in the city. Yongnian is in charge.¡±
"No!"
"Is there any action by the Yuzhou Corps?" Liu Cong discovered that Pang Tong and Wei Yan seemed to have not moved during this period.
"Reporting to my lord, there is no news from Yuzhou. Military Advisor Pang and General Wei Yan have been holding back their troops!" Deng Ai said, "But my subordinates feel that this is a bit abnormal."
"Of course this is not normal!" Liu Cong smiled. Wei Yan and Pang Tong were not the ones who were content. After Cao Cao's defeat in Huainan, they must be looking for opportunities. "If Pang Tong and Wei Yan move, it will probably be earth-shattering."
"I just got the news this morning that Cao Cao withdrew his troops from Sishui Pass." Zhang Song added.
"Originally, he wanted to annex Soochow, but he lost even Huainan. Naturally, Cao Cao couldn't stay. Otherwise, if Guangling is defeated, Xuzhou will be in danger."
"My lord is wise!"
The next day, Li Yan's army arrived outside Chengdu. After setting up camp, Li Yan led the generals and escorted Liu Xun into the city until they came to the main hall of the Han Dynasty.
Liu Cong sat down on the throne and saw that there were many officials in the hall today, even more than when he was discussing matters in the Han Dynasty Palace in Luoyang City.
On the side of the scribes, there are Zhang Song, Fazheng, Dong He, etc.; on the side of the generals, there are Li Yan, Deng Ai, Fei Guan, Xiang Rong, Zhou Cang, Liao Hua, Wang Ping, Meng Da, Wu Ban, Wu Yi, etc.
"See my lord!" Everyone saluted together.
"Everyone, please forgive me and stay safe!"
"Thank you, Lord!"
"You all are indispensable for winning Chengdu this time. Xiaozhi Yongnian, you two are responsible for registering each person's contribution in detail, and then awarding rewards based on merit."
"No!"
"Wu Ban Wu Yi, I am very pleased that you two can surrender to our great Han Dynasty. For the time being, I will grant you the title of school captain. I will reward you again after you have made meritorious service."
Wu Ban and Wu Yi are very capable generals. If they were to be made generals now, some people would naturally say that they relied on nepotism. This is what Wu Yi of Wu Ban did not want, so Liu Cong just made him a school captain.
"Thank you so much, lord!" The two of them came out and saluted Liu Cong, feeling grateful at the same time. They naturally knew the purpose of lord Liu Cong doing this.
"Bring Liu Xun up!"
"No!"
Soon, two soldiers led Liu Xun into the main hall.
??After Liu Xiong came to the store, he stood up without kneeling. The two soldiers pressed his shoulders hard, but Liu Xun still stood there proudly.
Liu Cong waved his hand and signaled the two soldiers to get down. In fact, Liu Cong doesn't care whether he kneels or not.
"Liu Xun, I don't care about what you did in the past. Now I just ask you, are you willing to surrender?"
"Ha" Liu Xun burst into laughter, "Little Liu Cong, you have taken away my father's inheritance and killed each other in the same clan. How can you have the face to persuade me to surrender?"
"Bold!" Liu Xun's words immediately angered the generals in the hall. If there were no swords around his waist, Deng Ai, Li Yan and others might have chopped him down.
In the minds of these people, the lord Liu Cong exists like a god, so how can Liu Xun be allowed to speak nonsense.
Liu Cong waved his hand to stop the angry generals.
"Liu Xun, what is your father's inheritance? Can you really say such treacherous words? You are in vain to call yourself a clan member of the Han Dynasty!" Liu Cong's voice was full of murderous intent, which made Liu Xun involuntarily feel frightened.
"You and I¡¡"
"The Emperor is still here, and the world belongs to the Han Dynasty. Where did your father come from?"
"Youyou still talk about the emperor, don't you have a disobedient heart?"
"I am the direct descendant of Guangwu. The imperial court is late, the state is upside down, and His Majesty's edict cannot leave the palace. It is my responsibility to reorganize the country, get rid of the traitors, revive the Han Dynasty, and restore the old tribe. You and your son are separatist in Yizhou, and you are the sons of rebellious ministers and traitors. also!"
After Liu Cong finished speaking, almost everyone in the hall felt excited. In their minds, Liu Cong represents the real man. So, they all fell to their knees.
"I am willing to run for my lord, reorganize the country, get rid of the traitors, revive the Han Dynasty, and restore the old army!"
"My lords, please rise!" Liu Cong waved his hand.
"Thank you, Lord!" Everyone stood up.
"With the help of all the ministers, the traitors will be eliminated and the Han Dynasty will be prosperous!" Liu Cong said loudly.
"The traitors must be eliminated, and the Han Dynasty must be prosperous!" Everyone said in unison.
When everyone's mood calmed down a little, Liu Cong looked at Liu Xun again, "Liu Xun, just because this Shu palace was built according to the royal standards, it is not unjust for me to behead your father and son. The reason why I persuaded you to surrender is that For the sake of being members of the Han clan. Let me ask you again, are you willing to surrender?"
"Liu Cong, let me surrender, don't don't even think about it" Liu Xun's words were very strong, but everyone could see that he was scared, his voice was trembling, and his body was trembling.
"Ha" Liu Cong looked at Liu Xun and smiled slightly, and then his face suddenly darkened, "Come here, take Liu Xun out and behead him!" (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
