Chapter 472
Did Wang Lei really surrender?
For Pang Tong, this was an unprecedented gamble and adventure!
However, compared to his gambling, Li Hui, the Sheep Prefect, seemed restless and even felt an unprecedented danger.

Jiangyou fell?
Why did Jiangyou fall?
When he heard the news, Li Hui's head buzzed, and he was a little dazed at the time...

It's no wonder that Jiangyou is located in the middle of Sichuan. To be precise, that place is in the southwest of Chengdu. How did the Guanzhong Army capture Jiangyou?

But he also knew that Huang Quan was a real person, and he would never talk about things for no reason.

So, after getting the news, Li Hui immediately led 8000 people to leave Mianzhu in a hurry, and rushed to Fuguan Starry Night.

The Guanzhong army won Jiangyou, and the next step must be to occupy Fuguan.

The Fuguan garrison is only 2000 people, can it withstand the attack of the Guanzhong army?You know, the Guanzhong Army has always been known for its ability to conquer battles.The position of Fuguan is very important. For Pang Tong, winning Fuguan is equivalent to gaining a foothold in central Shu; but for Xichuan, Fuguan is lost... The connection between Chengdu and Brazil, Guanghan, and Qianwei is also the same. Then it was cut off.

Before the Guanzhong Army was blocked outside Jiameng Pass, Pang Xi and others did not realize the importance of Fu Pass.

But now that the Guanzhong army has entered Shuzhong, Fuguan is particularly important.If not done well, there will be big trouble this time.

"Pass my order, the army will speed up, and must arrive at Fu Pass before dark!"

The soldiers of the three armies responded at the same time, and the speed of marching increased again.But Li Hui still felt that this man and horse walked too slowly.

******
"Li Hui is capable!"

Sitting in the Yamen of Fuguan Mansion, Wang Lei said with a smile: "It's just that my temperament is too impatient sometimes, and I don't care about the overall situation. If I were Li Hui, after learning that Jiangyou was captured, I would definitely notify Chengdu immediately and gather people to And temporarily ignore Fu Guan."

Next to Wang Lei, there is a young man who is doing the listening test with an elegant smile on his face.

With scorching eyes, he said in a deep voice, "Abandoning Fuguan? Wouldn't it make the three counties lose contact?"

Wang Lei laughed and said, "Now Langzhong and I have tens of thousands of troops, and there are soldiers from Guanghan County... It is obvious that the Guanzhong army will attack Jiangyou by surprise. There will never be too many soldiers and horses. You only need to mobilize enough troops to fight back. You can regain what you lost. This is in the middle of Shu, what worries do we have?"

That young man is the Huang Quan that Wang Lei mentioned.

Smiling and nodding, "After all, De Ang hasn't learned the lesson from last time. It seems that this time, he's going to be in big trouble!"

Wang Lei sneered.

The lesson Huang Quan said was what happened to Li Hui in his early years.

He is from Jianning and once worked as a postal supervisor in Jianning.Li Hui's uncle, Cuan Xi, was the magistrate of Jianling County in Jianning County, and he did some things that violated the law.However, Li Hui's postal supervisory position is to inspect officials' violations, similar to that kind of supervision department.

After discovering Cuan Xi's problem, Li Hui reported it directly to Chengdu without considering other reasons.

There is a saying, kiss or not, a family.The Xichuan Township party became popular, and Li Hui promoted Cuan Xi. Instead of causing trouble to Cuan Xi, he was almost dismissed from office.Even his family members don't like him.At that time, Li Hui's situation was really embarrassing.

Fortunately, his aunt interceded, and Cuan Xi did not argue with Li Hui.

Instead, Li Hui was introduced to Dong He, the prefect of Shu County at that time, which saved Li Hui from a difficult situation.

Dong He said to Li Hui at the time: "Deang, you are too impatient... I can understand that you want to make achievements. But you should think twice before acting."

Most of the officials in central Shu know about this matter.

Wang Lei agrees with Li Hui's behavior.But regardless of family affection and only caring about his own future, Wang Lei does not value it.

He stood up and looked at the sky...

"Gongheng, it's almost time. Li Hui must be here too. Let's get ready to welcome our prefect!"

Wang Lei and Dong He were at odds.

There was also Dong He's shadow in the matter of being Zhangji by Liu Zhang.

And Dong He is Pang Xi's confidant, Li Hui gained Dong He's trust, so it was destined that Wang Lei would not spare him lightly.As for Huang Quan, he didn't like Li Hui either.Huang Quan wouldn't mind if he could be taught a lesson, and he would fan the flames at the critical moment.

The two men prepared for a while, and when it was almost you, they came to report that Li Hui's soldiers and horses were approaching Fuguan.

Wang Lei didn't show up, but Huang Quan climbed to the top of Fuguan city.In the distance, dust and smoke billowed, while Li Hui led the soldiers and horses to the city.

It can be seen that Li Hui hurried and hurried, and the journey was quite hard.

Huang Quan sighed in his heart, cupped his hands and said, "Is the De'ang prefect under the city?"

"I'm Li Hui...how is the situation in Fuguan now? Haven't opened the city yet?"

Huang Quan laughed, "My lord, don't be impatient. Everything in Fuguan is fine now. It's just that I have a friend who wants to introduce you to my lord."

Li Hui also regained his breath at this moment, and found that the situation was not good.

He frowned, and shouted in a deep voice: "Huang Quan, what the hell are you doing? It's already this time, why do you recommend any friends? Open the city gate quickly!"

Huang Quan said: "It's not that the lower officials are unwilling to open, but my friend said that if the adults don't see him first, I'm afraid the lower officials can't do anything... Come on, let's beat the drums!"

As he spoke, the soldiers behind him beat the war drum.

I just heard dong-dong-dong... There was a sound of drums, and a row of archers suddenly stood up from behind Huang Quan, each of them bent their bows and set up arrows, aiming at the Shu army under the city.Immediately afterwards, on both sides of Fuguan, there were shouts of killing.Two groups of people rushed out from both sides of Fuguan, about 2000 people in number.

One of them is a general, over Zhang tall, with broad shoulders and round waist.

The dark skin is like the bottom of a pot.With a green spear in one hand and a dragon-slaying halberd in the other, he rushed out first, and shouted sharply: "Here is Gan Ben, the invincible army, and Li Hui has not dismounted and surrendered!"

Not good, fooled!

Li Hui gave a chill, and immediately understood that Huang Quan might have surrendered.

Before he had time to think about why Huang Quan surrendered, Li Hui shouted loudly: "Young man of the third army, follow me to destroy the bandit army first, and then take Fuguan!"

The generals and soldiers of the Shu army shouted in unison, brandishing their knives and guns, and rushed towards the two men and horses.

But these two Guanzhong armies are as powerful as fierce tigers, although they are not superior in number, they are extremely brave.Gan Ben urged his horse to rush into the camp of the Shu army.The green spear flew, and the Dragon Slaying Halberd brought out strange arcs of light.This Gan Ben was in the Guanzhong Army and was nicknamed Tiger Gan.In terms of martial arts alone, it can definitely be ranked in the top five.Only below Dong Pi and Huang Zhong, he is on par with Dian Wei.

The leader of the other team is Huo Jun.

He was different from the rampage led by Gan Ben, but instead attacked the Shu army with the Yuan Rong crossbow as the main force.

The two troops, one in front and one behind, one inside and one outside, only killed the Shu soldiers on their backs, and blood flowed like rivers.You know, the Shu army is already very tired after a long-distance raid of sixty miles.Although the number is superior, how can it be compared with the Invincible Army who are recharging their energy.

It was completely dark, and torches were lit at the top of Fuguan City.

Huang Quan led a group of men and horses to kill the generals. After resisting for a while, the Shu army was finally defeated.

Li Hui fled in embarrassment with his men and horses.While running, he cursed Huang Quan in his heart.When I go back to Mianzhu, gather all the men and horses and come back, I will definitely make you Huang Quan look good.However, the most urgent thing is to escape first, those invincible troops are really too vicious.

Compared with the Shu army, the Wunan army can't help being better than the Shu army in terms of equipment, and it is obviously higher than the Shu army in terms of training.

Dong Bi equipped the Wunan Army with all rattan armor and Han'an sword...Gan Ben himself was also a general, and his military tactics were quite good.In addition, Jia Long and Zhang Ren are not idle people.After several years of fighting fiercely with the people of the Western Regions in the mountains, it was only after training that they became today's heroic soldiers.

Li Hui didn't know himself or his opponent in this battle, but he didn't feel wronged at all.

When setting off, the military appearance was neat, valiant and high-spirited.

When he went back, he threw away his helmet and armor, which was horrible.Li Hui led the remnants of the defeated generals to flee all the way, and the speed was not slow.At the second watch, soldiers and horses came to the city of Mianzhu.But it was quiet on the top of the city, the four gates were closed tightly, and the big flags of the Shu army were hunting in the wind.

"Who is on duty in the city? Quickly report to Master Yang, just say I'm back!"

"Hey, but Li Taishou is talking?"

Someone on the top of the city asked strangely, and Li Hui said angrily: "Nonsense, it's me... Hurry up and report to Yang Hong and open the city gate!"

"Lord Li, I'm afraid that General Yang has no control over whether the city gate will be opened or not!"

Why does this sound so familiar?

Li Hui was startled and shouted sharply, "Who is talking in the city?"

"Hehe, it's not me!"

As soon as the words fell, the head of Mianzhu City was brightly lit.A group of soldiers surrounded an ugly young man who was less than seven feet tall, with different facial features, and appeared on the crenel.The young man squinted his triangular eyes and cupped his hands towards Li Hui at the bottom of the city: "Prefect Li, I have been waiting for you here for a long time... Mianzhu has been occupied by our army. Master Li is a smart man. If you don't get off your horse and surrender, when will you wait?" ?”

"You, who are you? Where is Yang Hong?"

Li Hui was stunned all of a sudden, and asked stammeringly.

The young man smiled and said: "I have no trouble with the history of the army commander, Pang Tong, the Minister of the Prince of Liang's Mansion. Now, by the order of the emperor, I have come here to take the middle of Shu, in order to wish the King of Liang a great wedding!"

"what?"

Li Hui only felt a tightness in his chest, a sweetness in his throat, and his head suddenly became a pot of porridge.

Pang Tong said: "If Master Li hadn't cooperated, would Tong An have invited you to Mianzhu? Also, General Yang Hong has already escaped... He must be on his way to Chengdu at this time. It is estimated that before tomorrow, Chengdu will know that Master Li understands righteousness. Surrender to the news of my King Liang."

"You are talking nonsense..."

Li Hui had a pain in his chest, couldn't help but spit out a mouthful of blood, and fell off his horse.

The city gate suddenly opened wide, and Wang Rong led hundreds of soldiers to kill the generals, and shouted sharply: "When you see the imperial army coming, you still don't abandon your weapons and surrender?"

In the flames, Wang Rong was majestic and murderous.

The gold-plated phoenix wings in his palm shone with a cold light, pointing at the exhausted Shu army, the sound echoed in the night sky like a huge thunder.

******
Jiangyou was lost, Fuguan was lost, and Mianzhu was also lost...

Pang Xi's eyes widened, looking at the dusty Yang Hong, whose face was covered with blood, who was sitting in the grand teacher's chair, unable to speak for a long time.

Misfortunes never come singly!
Just received the fall of Fuling Pass, why did the Guanzhong army enter Shuzhong here?
Yang Hong burst into tears: "General, it's not that I, Yang Hong, are incompetent, it's that Li Hui, Li Hui...is not a son of man."

If the four words of "not being a son of man" are explained in the more straightforward words of later generations, it is roughly: this guy is not a thing.

Pang Xi clenched his fists and said in a trembling voice, "Ji Xiu, don't worry, speak slowly!"

"Li Deang secretly colluded with the Guanzhong army, saying that he was sending troops to rescue Fuguan, but in fact he transferred most of the troops in Mianzhu. The last general tried his best to stop him and persuaded Li Hui to notify the adults first, and then try to gather troops. Living in Fuguan, but there will never be too many soldiers and horses. At that time, only a counterattack is needed, and Fuguan Jiangyou can be taken back. But Li Hui refused to listen and took away the elite of Mianzhu."

"Li Deang, how dare you do this..."

so what?
Pang Xi didn't say anything, but felt tightness in his chest, as if a stone was pressing on his heart.

He tried his best to calm down, and said in a trembling voice: "How could the Mianzhu be lost?"

"After Li Hui left, Mianzhu's troops were empty. The last general had to lead people to look around to prevent the Guanzhong army from sneaking in. Unexpectedly, Li Hui asked his cronies to open the gate of Mianzhu city and let the Guanzhong army enter Mianzhu... The last general With outnumbered enemies, his arm was broken by a guy named Wang Rong from the Guanzhong Army..."

"Guan Zhongjun, how many people are there?"

"When there are five thousand!"

Mianzhu has [-] soldiers and horses, if it wasn't for Li Hui's collusion to take away the main force, how could it be possible to be outnumbered and outnumbered?

Yang Hong said: "The last general came out of Mianzhu and captured a Guanzhong soldier. The Guanzhong soldier said: The reason why they dared to be so bold was that there were people in Chengdu who responded internally. He said that as long as Mianzhu was captured, Chengdu would surely Unable to bear it, he persuaded the general to surrender... The general received the favor of the general's promotion, and after hearing what the guy said, he became so angry that he chopped off his head with a sword and dedicated it to the general."

The head brought by Yang Hong was a head with obvious characteristics of the Anxi people.

This kind of thing can't be faked. If Yang Hong was looking for excuses on the way to retreat, he wouldn't be able to find such a bloody head.

Pang Xi slapped the table loudly.

"Dong and the man, how dare you bully me like this... the people came, but immediately arrested Dong and the man and put them in the prison."

Since the small school went to carry it out, after a while, officials of all sizes from Chengdu rushed to ask Pang Xi what happened.

Dong He is Pang Xi's confidant, and he is very popular in Sichuan.

I really don't understand why such a sudden change happened?

Pang Xi told everyone about the fall of Mianzhu.After hearing this, everyone couldn't help but gasped.

Pang Xi said: "You don't have to worry. Although the Guanzhong army entered Shu, it was just a case of rotten scales. I have sent people to Langzhong to deliver a letter. Tomorrow, I will personally lead the troops to retake Mianzhu. The most urgent task is Fuling Pass. If we fall, what do you think we should do next?"

If you think about it, what does it matter if Guan Zhongjun slipped into Shuzhong?
Thousands of people, what kind of waves can they make?

The key is the soldiers and horses of the eldest son.After breaking through the Fuling Pass, the trouble will be big...

Among the crowd, a man stood out, about thirty years old, short in stature, with wicked eyebrows and mouse eyes, which was annoying.

This person is Zhang Song who is engaged in Yizhou Zhizhong.

"Will the Yongnian plan be released?"

Zhang Song is also very arrogant, talented, and he comes from a wealthy family in central Sichuan.It's just that because of his bad appearance, he is not seen by others.Liu Zhang appointed him to work in the government, and to put it bluntly, it was only because of his background.Zhang Song also knows his own situation, so he usually behaves very low-key.If there was nothing wrong, he would not stand up, so that Pang Xi almost forgot his existence.

Seeing Zhang Song take the initiative to stand up now, Pang Xi couldn't help but feel ecstatic.

Zhang Song said: "Although the eldest son broke through Fuling Pass, the journey is far away and not difficult. From below Fuling Pass, there are two roads to reach Chengdu. However, no matter whether by water or land, you need to pass through Deyang Pass. The general can choose A person with a confidant will not be able to hold on. In a short time, the eldest son and his team will cut off their food and grass, and when the time comes, whether to kill or keep them will all be at the discretion of you, the general."

Pang Xi nodded repeatedly, "Who does Yongnian think can go?"

"Chengdu General Liu Gui can be the main general."

Pang Xi thought about it, and felt that Liu Gui was a pretty good candidate. After pondering for a while, he asked, "Only Liu Gui..."

"If the general is not at ease, Song can recommend two people. The state office is engaged in Zhang's descendant Zhang Junsi, both civil and military. He governs Gongyang Chunqiu, and he also has extensive experience in Hanshu. Luo Meng, now serving as the lieutenant of Baishui, he is good in both literary and military tactics...these two can be the lieutenants of General Liu. In addition, the teachers and friends who work in Zhou Qun are well-known, and they can also assist General Chengdu."

Zhang Song recommended three people in succession, making Pang Xi nod repeatedly.

"Since this is the case, according to what Yongnian said, order Liu Gui to town Deyang, Zhang Yi Luo Meng as the deputy general, and ask Zhou Qun to be the chief historian to assist Liu Gui."

Note that Pang Xi used the word "please" here.

Who is Zhou Qun?

That is a serious celebrity in Sichuan, from Langzhong, Brazil.His father, Zhou Shu, was once a farewell driver for Liu Yan.Later, because of his involvement in rebellion, he was suspected by Liu Yan and resigned from office.But Zhou Shu, who is also Liu Zhang's teacher, has an extraordinary status.As for Zhou Qun, he once studied with Yang Hou, a famous scholar in Guang'an, and his reputation in Sichuan is only weaker than that of Dong Fu and Ren'an.Liu Zhang regards Zhou Qun as his brother and as a teacher and friend, which is very important.

Although this person has no real power, his influence in Chuanzhong is extraordinary.

Pang Xi dared to use the word 'fate' to others, but to Zhou Qun, he had to respectfully say the word 'please', which shows that he is not vulgar.

Once things were arranged, Pang Xi finally breathed a sigh of relief.

He immediately started gathering troops, preparing to send troops to Mianzhu the next day to recapture Fuguan.

This paragraph is finally coming to an end...

Some readers may say that the chapters of the past few days are relatively watery, but in fact, the chapters of these two days have a lot to do with each other.Maybe my pen is not strong enough, anyway, it is very difficult to write.
