Three Kingdoms Bandits

Chapter 240 The ten day period
Although Liu Zhang repelled Zhao Wei, the situation in Chengdu became more dangerous.In these six days of fighting, even if Liu Xun defended the city well, the Sichuan army would inevitably suffer losses.

Now Liu Zhang has to face a more difficult opponent than Zhao Wei.Wu Shun, who came all the way from Hanzhong, made Liu Zhang feel a lot of pressure.

"Father, the walls of Chengdu are thick and high, even if the Wuling army comes, they can still resist!"

As a child, seeing his father's frowning face, Liu Xun had no choice but to persuade him.

"Xun'er, the Wuling army is fierce, Wu Shun acts freely, he is not at ease as a father."

A few words of comfort could not relieve Liu Zhang's depression.Now he can mobilize only the manpower in Chengdu.If Wu Shun wanted to attack by force, it would be no problem to resist for a few months.But in that case, the whole Yizhou would be devastated.

As a prince of one side and the parent official of Yizhou, Liu Zhang has a good heart.There have been many measures to benefit the people.It's a pity that he is not as majestic as Liu Yan.The soldiers under him refused to accept his control.

In a word, the army only obeys the strong!Liu Zhang Sui was a shepherd in Yizhou, but in the hearts of the Sichuan army, he was not a strong man.

When the Wuling army came to fight, Liu Zhang could only bite the bullet and resist.He is a member of the royal family, representing the dignity of the royal family!
While Liu Zhang was struggling with how to deal with the Wuling Army, Wu Shun was also discussing with the generals how to attack Chengdu.

Letting Liu Zhang surrender by himself is just an ideal tactic. Just imagine, would the dignified clan of the Han Dynasty, the largest family in the Eastern Han Dynasty, surrender easily?
"My lord, if one plan fails, there is another plan. Ziqiao is still in Chengdu."

When everyone was arguing about whether to attack by force or outsmart, Fazheng spoke out.

Zhang Song is still in Chengdu.Now Liu Zhang only has such a small place left.If it can be outsmarted, there is really no need for the Wuling Army to pay huge casualties!
After getting Chengdu, there are still many things to do.Naturally, the higher the strength, the better.

"Don't tell me, I haven't thought about it, but now Ziqiao has been discovered by Liu Zhang?"

To be honest, Wu Shun was quite worried about Zhang Song.After all, this is a talent who loves him.As long as Liu Zhang suspects him, it will be difficult.

"My lord, because of my subordinates, Liu Zhang is already on guard against Zi Qiao."

Fazheng led his troops to surrender, and the word has already spread.There was a lot of abuse in Shu.It also led to Zhang Song's tragic neglect by Liu Zhang.It is impossible to do anything now!
"It's okay, as long as there is no danger! Send the order, and the soldiers will enter Chengdu tomorrow!"

"Yes!"

Finally, this day came, and the generals of the Wuling Army were all gearing up, ready to show their talents.

After the Wuling Army took Yizhou, it is likely that there will be a long period of rest.The credit for this battle will affect his status in the Wuling Army.

……

"Report~"

"My lord, the Wuling army has arrived outside the city!"

"Siege the city?"

"no!"

Hearing the arrival of the Wuling Army, Liu Zhang was in a mixed mood.Before that, he hoped that the Wuling army would come soon, but also prayed that the Wuling army would not come.

Now that Wu Shun has gone outside the city, he has to face the reality.

"Xun'er, go and meet that Wu Shun!"

After finishing speaking, Liu Zhang got up and left.Liu Xun and other civil and military personnel hurriedly followed.

When he came to the city of Chengdu, Zhang Xiong couldn't help but lament that Linyuan City was too small.Compared with Chengdu, it is a small earth city in the remote mountains!
Thinking that this will be Wu Shun's territory in the future, Zhang Xiong is very happy!
In fact, not only Zhang Xiong was shocked, even Wu Shun didn't expect that the scale of Chengdu City is really not small.

"Wu Shun, you attacked me in Xichuan for no reason, killed my soldiers, and killed my civilians. What exactly is your intention?"

When Wu Shun and the others were wandering in the sky, Liu Zhang called their souls back with a single question.

"Brother Ji Yu, you have wronged my little brother. God has witnessed that our Wuling army has never killed a civilian in Yizhou!"

Wu Shun pointed to the sky and said righteously.He only emphasized that he did not kill civilians, nothing else was mentioned!
Seeing Wu Shun secretly changing the concept, Liu Zhang was furious.This person is too shameless, he just picked up some innocuous things and said.

"Wu Shun, what do you mean by invading our prefecture and county for no reason?"

Now that others have bullied here, and suffering from not being as strong as others, Liu Zhang can only question verbally.To Wu Shun's level, it was neither painful nor itchy!
"Brother Ji Yu, the land of abundance is home to the virtuous! Only in my hands can Yizhou show its due glory!"

What Wu Shun meant was to put it bluntly, that is, you are not worthy to be the Lord of Yizhou, so let me do it.

Wu Shun's domineering remarks aroused the Wuling Army's sense of glory!
Did you see that domineering figure is my lord!
The soldiers of the Wuling Army were all inspired by Wu Shun's words!They shouted slogans loudly in response to Wu Shun.

"If you want to enter Chengdu, you are delusional!"

Wu Shun's shamelessness completely angered Liu Zhang!Wu Shun was blown away by his good temper.

"Liu Zhang! Let me tell you, I'll give you ten days to think about it. If you don't surrender, the day the city is broken, the city will be massacred for three days!"

Wu Shun put down his harsh words and led the Wuling army back leisurely.

"Father, Wu Shun is too deceitful! The child will fight him to the death!"

Liu Xun's heart was filled with anger when his father was threatened like this. If Liu Mao hadn't stopped him, he would have gone out of the city to fight Wu Shun to the death.

"Xun'er, this matter needs a long-term plan! Isn't there ten days, the Wuling army must not be sure of winning in one battle!"

Liu Mao persuaded.Wu Shun gave Liu Zhang ten days to show that the Wuling army was not prepared enough and had no confidence in attacking the city!
Under Liu Mao's persuasion, Liu Xun became calm.Thinking back carefully, it was indeed as Liu Mao analyzed.

If the Wuling army is fully prepared, they will attack the city today, not ten days later!Threatening to massacre the city when the city is broken is just to give them some psychological pressure.However, judging from Wu Shun's behavior style, he will probably do what he says.

The Sichuan army has to find a way to drive away the Wuling army within ten days, or they will be wiped out!
Back in the camp, Zhang Xiong caught up with Wu Shun who was talking with Zhuge Liang and the others, and asked in puzzlement:
"Brother, now that the Wuling army is strong and strong, why don't they attack the city directly?"

In Zhang Xiong's view, the Sichuan army had just passed through the Zhao Wei Rebellion, and its physical strength had not yet recovered.As the saying goes, taking advantage of your illness to kill you, this is a great opportunity to storm Chengdu.He didn't understand why Wu Shun had to wait until ten days later.

"Xiao Zhi, you should be familiar with him, and you can tell him."

Seeing that Zhang Xiong had questions, Wu Shun directly sent Fazheng to answer him.

"General Zhang, the walls of Chengdu are tall and thick, and there are plenty of supplies in the city. If we attack the city by force, our army will have to pay a huge price!"

Fazheng explained one of the factors to Zhang Xiong.Unexpectedly, Zhang Xiong didn't buy it, and continued to ask:

"The Sichuan army has just gone through the battle, and its energy has not recovered at this time. It is a good opportunity to attack!"

"You know, General, that the Sichuan army has defeated Zhao Wei's rebel army, and their morale is booming. What the Lord said just now stimulated their determination to fight to the death. The Sichuan army is the strongest at this time. Waiting for ten days is to avoid their edge , to reduce losses, but also to wait for reinforcements from our army!"

It is true that the Sichuan Army has just won the battle, and its fear of the Wuling Army has also decreased, not to mention that the Zizhong of the Wuling Army has not yet been in place.To attack a big city like Chengdu.Catapults need more.

And Shi Zhongyu is about to arrive. Once the Canglang Army is full, the Wuling Army will have more than [-] people!At that time, when we attack, we are more confident.

"The military adviser said that that boy Shi Zhongyu is coming back?"

Zhang Xiong asked in surprise.

"Yes, after receiving the news from the Black Clothes Guard, General Shi will be here in a few days!"

Fazheng replied with a smile.Finally, Zhang Xiong's mind was distracted, but it was not easy!
