Chapter 598 Chaos in Shuzhong
Pang Xi hijacked Liu Zhang out of the Shu Palace through a secret passage, and then heard loud shouts of killing around him, and encountered a group of rout soldiers not far away.

Pang Xi fixed his eyes and saw that Yan Yan's subordinates were being dragged by him to Fu Jin and to the left. They were sent by Pang Xi to attack Wu Kuang's mansion. How could they retreat so quickly?

Fu Jin and Xiang Zuo said bitterly: "General Chariot, we have fallen for the trick, Wu Kuang's mansion looks empty, but in fact it is secretly deploying elite soldiers, the man who saw Meng Da deployed nearly a thousand crossbows, and our brothers suffered heavy casualties when we met each other. The two of us managed to get out."

Pang Xi was stunned: "It seems that we have all fallen into Liu Bei's schemes, it's a pity that we still think we are wise."

Liu Zhang gasped and said, "Pang Qing, Duke Qin's brilliance is beyond your knowledge. He has elite soldiers and many advisers under his command. How can you be his opponent? If you think alone, you might as well surrender. You can still save your life. It can save the people of Yizhou from the flames of war."

"Confused!"

Pang Xi was so angry that he slapped Liu Zhang on the face, and the generals around him were stunned. No matter what, Liu Zhang is the king, and Pang Xi slapped the king as a subject. Even if the soldiers around Pang Xi were all his confidants No, Fu Jin, Xiang Zuo and others were even more stunned. They turned to Pang Xi to save Liu Zhang from the fire and water. Now it seems that Pang Xi has done more things than Wu Kuang!

After the slap, Pang Xi also felt that it was inappropriate and immediately shouted: "You unfilial son, this slap was slapped for the late emperor."

After Pang Xi finished speaking, he knelt on the ground and cried loudly: "The first emperor! I am ashamed of the kindness of the late emperor to the minister. The late emperor bestowed the favor of the minister on the assistant. The young emperor (Liu Dan) was slaughtered by the rebels under the eyes of the minister. Today, the emperor is still in trouble. If you devote all your heart to the thief, and see the foundation of the late emperor being destroyed by the minister, even if the minister dies, it is hard to forgive the crime of the minister?"

Pang Xi cried and wanted to commit suicide but was stopped by his confidants, Fu Jin and Xiang Zuo also persuaded: "General Che Qi, Wu Kuang's rebels are powerful now, the most important thing is to protect the king and leave. General Hu Qi is still here. Luocheng, as long as His Majesty is fine, we can come back at any time."

Only then did Pang Xi stop his tears and said, "What you said is true."

Then he pretended to ask Liu Zhang: "Your Majesty, what do you think?"

Liu Zhang was stupefied by Pang Xi's slap. Although there was a rage in his heart, he was still suppressed by fear, and said, "I'll listen to the arrangement of the chariot general."

Pang Xi immediately joined forces with Fu Jin and Xiang Zuo, supported Liu Zhang and fled towards the gate of the city. On the way, he met the men Pang Xi had sent to attack Wu Kuang's army one after another. It was no surprise that they all fell into the trap.

Pang Xi thought about losing the battle, but he didn't expect the defeat to be so straightforward.

Pang Xi gathered more than [-] rout soldiers outside the city, and soon Xu Jing, Wang Shang, and Dong Fu led their soldiers out of Chengdu one after another.

When Pang Xi saw that Xu Jing had a backbone, he immediately told Xu Jing that he wanted to go back to Luocheng to join Yan Yan. Luocheng not only had Yan Yan's department, but also Pang Xi's department. Pang Xi knew that in troubled times, only soldiers have power. reason.

Xu Jing, Dong Fu, and Wang Shang all disagreed, and remonstrated: "Lucheng is too close to the Lucheng army. If the Lucheng army takes advantage of the gap to attack the city and Wu Kuang raises his troops to meet it again, Yizhou will no longer belong to the king."

"So what's the plan for now?"

Wang Shangdao: "It's better to retreat to Yizhou County, and then recruit troops from Qianwei, Shu County, Zang Cang, Yue Kuang and other counties to besiege Chengdu. Wu Kuang will be defeated."

Pang Xi nodded when he heard the words, and retreated to Yizhou County, which he had intended for a long time.

Pang Xi immediately went to Yizhou County, and in the name of Liu Zhang, he sent a message to all counties to send troops to counterattack Chengdu.

After Wu Kuang cleaned up Deng Xian's department, he found that Dong Fu, Xu Jing, Wang Shang and others had disappeared. Wu Kuang ordered to arrest them. A family of women, children, old and weak.

Wu Kuang ordered him to be under strict supervision, and called Fazheng and Zhang Song to discuss.

Zhang Song and Fazheng looked at each other, now half of the plan is done, the other half is to use the hands of Yizhou gentry to get rid of Wu Kuang, or make both of them lose.

Zhang Songdao: "General, there is nothing to be afraid of Pang Xi fleeing now, the key is the king in his hands, if he coerces the king to make the prefects of the counties attack, the general will definitely not be able to defend Chengdu."

"Then what should I do?"

Wu Kuang also asked anxiously, "Are you going to give up Chengdu and join the Lucheng Army?"

"No!"

Seeing that Wu Kuang wanted to leave, Fazheng immediately persuaded him: "General, now you are going to join the Lucheng Army. What contribution does the General have to the Lucheng Army? If you don't make a contribution to the Lucheng Army, then you can gain a foothold in the Lucheng Army."

"What's the big deal?"

Wu Kuang was moved when he heard the words. After all, although his daughter is Liu Bei's concubine, Liu Bei has many wives and concubines. If his daughter is left out in the cold, how can the Wu family gain a foothold?It's better to make a great contribution and then join the Lucheng Army as Fazheng said.

Fazheng thought about it and said: "Now the Lucheng army is not only short of an excuse to enter Shu, what Qin Gong hopes is to quickly settle in the middle of Shu, so that he can look east to the Central Plains. The situation in the Central Plains changes every day. The more powerful the alliance between Yuan Shao and Cao Cao is, Once the two of them have eliminated their dissidents, Duke Qin will not be able to settle down in the Central Plains for ten years, and then Jingyang will need more than ten years, and if the middle of Shu can be settled in one year, Duke Qin will be able to sweep the Central Plains within a few years, and he will definitely be able to rule the world in his lifetime. Is it a great achievement?"

Wu Kuang nodded repeatedly when he heard the words, even if Wu Kuang died at the cost of doing so, the Wu family could still occupy a place under Liu Bei's command in the future.

"The two gentlemen tell me what to do!"

Wu Kuang thought for a long time and said.

Fazheng and Fazheng looked at each other and smiled, Zhang Song said: "The general should denounce Pang Xi's rebellion, spread the word of his actions in several counties, and then make Liu Mao the king of Shu and abolish Liu Zhang as the king of Shu."

"it is good."

After Wu Kuang made his decision, he recruited new troops in Chengdu, appointed Zhang Song and Fa Zhengli Liu Mao as emperors, and sent several envoys to Luocheng Yan Yan, Qian Wei Zhao Wei, Zang Cang, Yue Guan, Shu County and the subordinate countries. , Minpu, Yongchang, and strive for the support of the counties.

Except for Yan Yan of Luocheng, who was conservative and neutral in the name of blocking the Lucheng army, and Zhao Wei, the prefect of Qianwei, who clearly supported Pang Xi, the rest of the counties remained neutral.

After Pang Xi gained a firm foothold in Qianwei County, he ordered Wang Shang to support Liu Zhang to enter Yizhou County and at the same time mobilized tens of thousands of soldiers from various counties to besiege Chengdu. Wu Kuang also led his troops out of the city to fight against Pang Xi. Pang Xi won all battles.

Wu Kuang fought all the way from Chengdu to Guangdu and Wuyang.

Zhao Wei and Pang Xi abandoned Wuyang and retreated to Nan'an. Wu Kuang immediately went to Nan'an and received the news that Chengdu was besieged. Only then did Wu Kuang understand Zhao Wei and Pang Xi's plan to lure the enemy, and immediately withdrew. .

Zhao Wei and Pang Xi pursued and killed them all the way, but Wu Kuang threw away his helmet and armor and returned to Chengdu with only two thousand elites.

Zhao Wei and Pang Xi went to the city of Chengdu. There were tens of thousands of troops, and they surrounded the city tightly.

Wu Kuang was stunned and ordered to kill the local gentry in Yizhou to deter the local gentry who were ready to move. Unexpectedly, the local gentry made a concerted effort to resist. Chengdu fell, and Wu Kuang escaped from Chengdu with Liu Mao.
