Shu Han Confucian General of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 182
"Your Majesty!"

Dong Xi and Chen Wu rushed into the tent, Guan Yu who was reading also put down the scroll and asked with a smile, "Can you two gain anything?"

"Sure enough, as Junhou and Mr. Ziyu expected, Zhang Wei sent people to rob the camp. The two of us robbed and killed more than a thousand people, and there were more than 700 prisoners. The captain who took the lead was also killed by me. Cut it off." Chen Wu couldn't hide his excitement.

"Zi Lie's contribution is not insignificant!" Guan Yu stroked his beard and smiled, and then said with some disdain: "Zhang Wei sent people to go to the village in the West Mountain Col. They were already short of troops, and they actually divided up their operations. I really don't know. So-called."

"Zhang Wei was knocked out of his wits by our army's trebuchet today, how dare he lie in the west city and be beaten? You can try to call the battle tomorrow, and Zhang Wei will definitely fight." Zhuge Jin thought for a while.

"Heavy troops sticking to the small city of Xicheng is a failure. Zhang Wei, a child, is nothing to be afraid of." Guan Yu also defined this opponent.At this time in Xicheng City, Zhang Wei looked at the remnants of the retreating army in front of him, and was silent for a long time. Finally, he could only sigh and ordered people to retreat first.

"General, what should we do now?" Although seeing Zhang Wei's complexion is not very good, but an aide still accompanied him and asked cautiously.

"What else can I do, I can only stick to it first!" Zhang Wei said angrily.He also knew in his heart that his elder brother handed over half of the troops to himself, and Nanzheng would definitely not be able to dispatch reinforcements.He fell asleep sullenly until the rumbling drums woke Zhang Wei up the next day.

"General, the Jingzhou army is calling for battle below the city." A scout hurriedly came to report.

"But Guan Yu?" Zhang Wei asked hastily.

"No, it's an old man!" The man said in disbelief.

"Old man?" Zhang Wei said in surprise, "How old is it?"

"The beard is already white!" the man replied honestly.

"Wait for me to go and have a look!" Zhang Wei dressed neatly, and then went to the top of the city to check the details.But seeing that the Jingzhou army below the city did not arrange the terrible trebuchets today, instead they sent about a thousand people to call for formation, each of them showing off their might and drinking three times, and the formation was not very orderly.One of them is a veteran, his beard and hair are mostly white, the banner behind him is Zhennan General, Nanyang Huang Zhong.

"Huang Zhong?" Zhang Wei asked in surprise. "Is Liu Beijun really unmanned, and find half a hundred old men to be the general of Zhennan?" A staff member on the side also expressed Zhang Wei's doubts.

"Don't worry about him conquering the south and the north. Forgive him for an old man in his sixties. Why should he be afraid? Guan Yu sent this old man to the battle. He clearly deceived me that there is no one in Hanzhong. Who will come with me and kill him to help the army? Wei?" Zhang Wei hummed angrily for a long time, and quickly ordered.

"General, young general Yu Zhai (a guest star of a decadent otaku from a netizen) is willing to go!" A general clasped his fists and came out to invite Ying.

"Okay!" Zhang Wei nodded in agreement, and immediately ordered Yu Zhai to lead 500 people to go to the pass to fight Huang Zhong.

"Is Zhang Wei the next general?" Huang Zhong saw that he was fighting alone, and asked quickly.

"To deal with you old man, why do you need General Zhang? I, Yu Zhai, have already flattered you!" After Yu Zhai finished speaking, he rushed forward immediately, wishing he could stab Huang Zhong to death immediately.

"Grandma's!" Huang Zhong cursed secretly, with just this move, he knew that Yu Zhai's martial arts were extremely bad, if he really hit him, he would be able to kill him within three moves.But thinking of Zhuge Jin's words, he still forced himself to be patient, and only used three successes to deal with it.

"Your Majesty, let General Huang go to the city to call for battle tomorrow, and send another army to Yang Renzhai to take precautions. Zhang Wei must deceive General Huang to be old, and if he underestimates the enemy, he can kill him if he rashly fights. That's it. , the defenders of the western city will surely be defeated!" Zhuge Jin suggested this during the discussion last night.

"Alright!" Guan Yu also felt that doing so might have a better effect.Using Huang Zhong, an old guy, to pretend to be a pig and eat a tiger, this move is already the Liu Bei Group's default super shameless killer move.If the opponent is not on guard and bullies him, he will suffer a big loss in all likelihood.Zhuge Jin reckoned that Zhang Weiwo probably didn't know Huang Zhong's prestige in that ravine, so it would be perfect to send him to fool people.

"Old General Huang, if it wasn't Zhang Wei who fought, the old general must not show his might and kill the enemy with one move. He must fight for dozens of rounds before repelling the opponent." Zhuge Jin said again at this time.

"Why?" Guan Yu and Huang Zhong said inexplicably this time, there was no one who didn't fight with all his strength, and they all thought Zhuge Jin was just idle.

"Junhou, General Huang. That Zhang Wei is known as the number one brave general in Hanzhong. Although it may not be true, his martial arts must be far superior to other generals in Hanzhong. If General Huang can fight those people for dozens of rounds, even if he wins, Zhang Wei I must also think that I can beat the old general. If so, the old general will lure him to fight again, and it will be a battle." Zhuge Jin explained in detail.

Guan Yu and Huang Zhong looked at each other, and Guan Yu said for a while, "Ziyu, I'm afraid that Zhang Wei is not so stupid."

"Zhang Wei's use of troops in the past few days can be said to be a foolish trick. Do you think he is shrewd?" Zhuge Jin asked with a smile.After a pause, Zhuge Jin said again: "Besides, even if this plan fails, at most it will not kill Zhang Wei, but it will not harm our army."
"That's true." Guan Yu and Huang Zhong also felt that it made sense.So now, Chen Wu is calling in front of Yang Renzhai to hold him there, Huang Zhong only exerts a little bit of strength to act with Yu Zhai.After fighting for 27 or [-] rounds, he found a flaw and hacked Yu Zhai to death.

"With such martial arts skills, you dare to go into battle?" Although he just killed a bum, Huang Zhong still shouted on purpose.The Jingzhou army, which was originally idle, is even more arrogant and arrogant.

"Damn it!" Seeing Huang Zhong's arrogance, Zhang Wei was furious immediately, and shouted repeatedly: "Get your horse ready, wait for me to kill this old man!" Zhang Wei was about to go down to the wall angrily.

"General, calm down. The general is the pillar of the West City. If something bad happens, won't everything be over?" Finally, there was one who was a little more clear-headed, and quickly advised him.

"It doesn't matter, this old man's martial arts is very common, I've seen it before. When I kill him, it will boost morale!" Zhang Wei said disapprovingly.Immediately, regardless of everyone's dissuasion, he hurried down to the city to meet Huang Zhong.

"Who is coming?" Huang Zhong asked hastily after seeing another one coming.

"The old thief will die!" Zhang Wei was in a hurry, and he couldn't wait to report his name, so he directly slapped Huang Zhong on horseback.Now Huang Zhong was a little depressed, and he didn't know if he was Zhang Wei.If it is true, it will kill a hundred with one knife. If it is not, if it is killed too fast, it will be bad to scare Zhang Wei.Fortunately, this person's martial arts is not very high, so let's fight with him first.

The two of them fought for twenty rounds, and suddenly several young soldiers in the Jingzhou army shouted loudly: "Old General Huang, he is Zhang Wei!" But some small soldiers who knew Zhang Wei took the initiative. Remind the elderly, save some effort, there is no need to continue acting.

"Huh?" Huang Zhong was elated when he heard it, but just in case, he blocked the knife from the other party first, and asked, "You are Zhang Wei?" He was a little excited, but his voice was trembling .

"Exactly!" Zhang Wei was a little puzzled as to why the old man was so excited all of a sudden. As soon as he finished answering, he felt something was wrong, as if some major crisis was about to come.

Soon Zhang Wei understood the source of the crisis: it was the fifty-year-old man in front of him.Huang Zhong's eyes suddenly lit up, like a tiger just waking up and saw its prey, its eyes were radiant.

"Hey!" Huang Zhong slashed horizontally with all his strength, and the speed was faster than before, not at 01:30.Zhang Wei couldn't dodge in time, and quickly crossed his sword to block.

With the sound of "Crack!" twice in a row, Zhang Wei and the blade in his hand were chopped into two pieces by Huang Zhong's vigorous blade. He was about to die, and he screamed a few times before he swallowed his breath.

The Hanzhong army in Luezhen never expected that there would suddenly be such a big contrast between the two people who were evenly matched on the scene.After a while of silence, a soldier of the Hanzhong Army who was watching the battle shouted like a pig: "General Zhang has been beheaded!" It seemed that this scream awakened the somewhat confused Hanzhong Army. Only then did the man realize that he quickly threw away his helmet and armor and was about to run into the city.

"The whole army pursues, and those who surrender will not be killed!" Guan Yu, who had watched the monkey show for a long time, finally seized the opportunity to perform, and hurriedly and excitedly announced the combat mission.At present, the Jingzhou army rushed towards the west city screaming like a tiger descending from the mountain. The guards at the city gate saw Zhang Wei being beheaded. Most of them knew that Zhang Lu’s brother died just like that. All wisely chose to surrender.The remaining ones who dared to resist were also quickly eliminated by Guan Yu.

"What's going on?" Yang Ren in the Xishan'ao camp heard the sudden commotion outside, and he was also a little puzzled.Suddenly he seemed to have expected something, and quickly sent scouts to inquire about the news.

Although Chen Wu came to fight today, but Yang Ren was determined to be a coward, so he simply ignored him.Anyway, Chen Wu only wanted to contain him, so he simply hid in a place not far from his camp.This battle has been fought for this sake, and it can no longer be described as weird.

"General Yang, it's not good. General Zhang has been beheaded, and Xicheng has fallen!" The scout came back angrily and reported to Yang Ren in a short while.Yang Ren was shocked when he heard the news, he fell down on the ground and didn't get up.

"General Yang, what shall we do then?" After a moment of silence, a school lieutenant asked weakly.Yang Ren knew what he meant, and felt a chill in his heart.

Back then, in order to gain Liu Zhang's trust and go to Hanzhong to develop, Zhang Lu did not hesitate to leave his own mother in Chengdu as a hostage.Later, he and Liu Zhang fell out, and Liu Zhang snapped at my old lady.As a result, the only relatives of Zhang Lu in the world are Zhang Wei, the younger brother.Yang Ren knew how much Zhang Lu loved his younger brother, and now that he was beheaded like this, as a general with him, he might not be able to do the job after returning.Although his death had nothing to do with him, political struggles are sometimes so ruthless, not to mention that Zhang Lu has never been a sentimental person.Although Zhang Wei has a good relationship with him, Yang Ren doesn't expect this friendship to be of any use.

Thinking of this, Yang Ren's scalp also felt a little numb.The person who proposed just now saw Yang Ren's expression and knew that his heart was beating, so he boldly remonstrated: "In that case, General, why don't you join the Jingzhou Army?"

"Old Liu, what do you mean by that? My lord has treated us with great kindness, under such circumstances, how can we leave him?" Yang Ren's face changed slightly, and he retorted righteously.

"General, General Zhang has died in battle right now. I will be worthy of my lord if I wait until I surrender!" The man heard that Yang Ren's tone was not so firm, and knowing that his will was not so firm, he hurriedly continued to "enlighten" himself This boss.Seeing that there was no one else around, the man lowered his voice and continued: "I think there are only tens of thousands of people in Hanzhong, and Uncle Liu Huang has already set up a command in the south, with nearly a million men under his command. Opposing Uncle Liu Huang is really self-destruction. , but to contribute to the country and society, so what's wrong with it?"

When Zhang Lu occupied Hanzhong, the early court sent people to surrender many times.Zhang Lu's attitude was very firm, and he killed the envoy every time.It wasn't until Cao Cao discussed with him to invade Jingzhou that the history of beheading envoys in Hanzhong ended.But anyone with a discerning eye knows that Zhang Lu has offended the court by doing so, but they don't have time to deal with you now.Once the upper hand is free, why don't you use your hands to pinch you little Hanzhong to death.

Thinking of this, Yang Ren didn't want to continue to be buried with Zhang Lu.Sighing, Yang Ren pretended to be embarrassed and said: "Although I want to abandon the dark and turn to the bright, I don't know if General Guan is willing to accept it?"

"Don't worry, General. Uncle Liu Huang has always been known for his benevolence and righteousness. How could he not accept surrender?" When the man heard that Yang Ren had changed Guan Yu's title, he immediately understood that Yang Ren only had this little concern in his heart.Yang Ren nodded, and sent this person to Guan Yu's army to discuss surrender.

"Yang Ren wants to surrender?" Guan Yu was also quite surprised when he heard this.Yang Ren Dazhai still has nearly [-] troops, why is he about to surrender now?After listening to this person's detailed explanation, he realized that he was afraid of Zhang Lu's blame, so he surrendered.

"Go back and tell Yang Ren, I agree, let him come out of the village and surrender tomorrow morning!" Although Guan Yu disdains the integrity of these surrenderers, it is good to fight less, so he didn't put his attitude too badly .

"Yes, yes, yes!" The man was overjoyed to see that surrender was possible, and he hurried back to the camp to reply to Yang Ren not to mention it.The next day, Yang Ren led the [-] defenders guarding Dazhai to surrender.Zhang Lu sent his younger brothers Zhang Wei and Yang Ren to lead an army of [-] to guard the west city, but they died within two days.

"Greetings to General Guan!" Yang Ren held the official seal letter in his hand and led his men to surrender to Guan Yu, and Guan Yu accepted them one by one. "General Yang, how many passes are there on the way to Nanzheng?" Guan Yu also asked after Yang Ren surrendered.

"Going back to the pass, General, there are still Chenggu, Baocheng, and Liangzhou along the way, all of which are dangerous places. However, the guards in these places are either my old troops, or they are friendly to me, or they can be taken down without bloodshed. General The army can go straight to the city of Nanzheng unimpeded!"

"It's so good!" Guan Yu didn't expect this guy to have such a lot of energy, which should be regarded as a pleasant surprise.Immediately Guan Yu thought of something, and asked again: "General Zhao Botao's partial division has already left Jiameng Pass. Does General Yang know how Zhang Lu is prepared?"

"Over there, there are Yangping Pass and the natural danger of Dingjun Mountain. No matter how many troops General Zhao has, it may be difficult to break through the pass." Yang Ren thought for a while.Guan Yu nodded and said nothing more.

Zhang Wei died in battle, and the news of Yang Ren's defection to the enemy came back to Hanzhong, Zhang Lu was stunned for a moment.
