Lu Dynasty

Chapter 798 Zhang Lu Surrenders
Zhang Wei volunteered, and Zhang Lu was also very happy.But not all of Zhang Lu's subordinates are full of wine and food, at least there is one Yan Pu who is a rare loyal person.When he heard that Zhang Lu sent Zhang Wei to find me, he panicked.To be honest, Zhang Wei's ability is indeed good, and he is not the kind of blind and arrogant person.But he has stayed in Hanzhong since he was born, where has he seen the heroes of the Central Plains?Watching the sky from a well and being a frog in a well are basically people like Zhang Wei!
Panicked, Yan Pu lost his usual caution, and recommended Yang Bai to resist our army in front of Zhang Wei.Zhang Wei immediately became angry. He felt that Yan Pu was looking down on him by doing this, and he wanted to kill Yan Pu with his sword.If Zhang Lu hadn't stopped him, Yan Pu would have been killed!But after such a commotion, Zhang Lu could only send Zhang Wei and Yang Bai to fight me!

Speaking of Yang Bai, everyone is not very familiar with it.But when it comes to Yang Bai's elder brother, it is the famous Yang Song.Why is Yang Song famous, because he is a villain who is greedy for money.The reason why this villain can be passed down through the ages is that he took Liu Bei's money and turned Ma Chao who was originally attached to Zhang Lu. He made a huge contribution to Liu Bei's entry into Shu, and then took Cao's money and high-ranking officials. Lu's promise persuaded Zhang Lu to surrender to Cao, but Zhang Lu surrendered to Cao, and he was the only official in Hanzhong who was beheaded because of his betrayal.In fact, Cao hated him for opposing Ma Chao, allowing Liu Bei to easily capture Xichuan.If it weren't for Yang Song, even if Liu Bei could win Xichuan and Ma Chao, it wouldn't be so easy!But such a villain, why did Zhang Lu keep him by his side?It's not that Zhang Lu doesn't know how to employ people, but that Yang Song's younger brother Yang Bai is a rare general in Hanzhong.Of course, if compared with Lu Bu and Dian Wei, it is a world of difference, but compared with Song Xian and Wei Xulai, it is still better than worse!
The vanguard of our army is Guan Yu and Lu Bu.Originally, I wanted Guan Yu to be the vanguard, but Lu Bufei clamored to go.In my opinion, once our army comes under pressure, Zhang Lu should accept his head and bow down, and surrender smoothly. Naturally, there is no danger. Naturally, we agree that Lu Bu and Guan Yu are both pioneers.But I have forgotten that in history Zhang Lu surrendered to Cao, Cao Ke went through several battles, and even lost many soldiers!Although Zhang Wei is a little arrogant, he still has some skills.He knew that our army was powerful, but he waited for our army outside Yangping Pass, and built more than ten fences around the pass, surrounded by mountains and forests.

Before Lu Bu and Guan Yu arrived at Yangping Pass, they got the news that Zhang Wei was ready.Lv Bu, who had been a little downhearted at first, suddenly became excited, and even led Guan Yu to march in a hurry, all the way to the village fifteen miles away from Yangping Pass!The most taboo thing in marching and fighting is to march in a hurry. Sun Tzu's Art of War said: If you strive for profit within a hundred miles, you will capture the generals of the three armies. Half to; thirty miles to fight for profit, then two-thirds to.Lu Bu marched like this, although no one was left behind, the soldiers were very tired.

On the night when Lu Bu arrived at Yangping Pass, a fire suddenly ignited behind Dazhai, and Zhang Lu's generals Yang Ren and Yang Ang came to rob the village!Although our soldiers were exhausted, the patrolling soldiers were energetic.Suddenly hearing the enemy's attack, they immediately clamored.The other soldiers, Zheng Xiang, who was sleeping, heard that the enemy soldiers were coming, but they were able to stand up and resist, but few of them were fully armored.By the time Lu Bu and Guan Yu organized resistance, many soldiers had already been killed.

Yang Ren and Yang Ang were also very depressed when they attacked the camp. If the troops of other princes were replaced, they would be attacked by the enemy without any defense.Even if we are undefeated, we have to retreat dozens of miles to go to the village, but our army still does not move.If it weren't for the bloodstains and scorched marks on our army's Dazhai, the robbery last night would have never happened!
Lu Bu and Guan Yu couldn't be described as depressed!They have been fighting for more than ten years, and they have made such a mistake, which makes them feel very ashamed and even annoyed!Looking at the corpses being carried out of the camp, Lu Bu knew that when I arrived, the lightest thing would be to scold me!Angry Lu Bu came to Yangping Pass to challenge with a painting halberd in hand.But Zhang Wei looked at the halberd and white tiger in Lu Bu's hands, if he went out to fight Lu Bu, he would be a fool and an idiot!

When I arrived at Yangping Pass, Lu Bu and Guan Yu had no progress, so they could only bite the bullet and come to see me.When I knew they were defeated, I not only scolded them, but also ordered them to commit crimes and make meritorious deeds, otherwise they would all go back to Luoyang and be locked up!In fact, I myself underestimate the enemy, how can I blame Lu Bu and Guan Yu?However, even if someone knew, they would not say it.After all, I am the lord, and not everyone has the guts of Wei Zheng to pick Tang Taizong's thorns every day!As for Guo Jia, who dared to say, is still in Luoyang, and Jia Xu usually would not point out my mistakes, but would only inform them vaguely.

Yangping Pass is indeed a dangerous pass, and Zhang Wei has long been prepared, even if I attack by force, I will only lose troops and lose generals.Since he couldn't attack by force, he was deadlocked after two strikes!However, not only did I stop at Yangping Pass, Zhang Lu also stopped at Xiamen Pass.In fact, Zhang Lu has no ambitions, and he also knows that he cannot unify the world with his own strength.But he has one wish, that is to avenge his mother!Seeing that the precarious Xiamen Pass could not be defeated, Zhang Lu broke his heart and sent an envoy to our army camp to discuss surrender matters. His only request was to hand over Liu Zhang to him!

After winning Xichuan, Liu Zhang's life and death are no longer important to me!But how could I be blackmailed by Zhang Lu?Even if Zhang Lu doesn't surrender, I can still beat him to the end, so why bother to negotiate with him?The ancients said: There is no righteous war in the Spring and Autumn Period.Now that the Han Dynasty has reached such a state, it is easier to expect the princes to keep their promises than to wait for the sow to climb the tree!Just say that Sun Quan and Liu Bei in history have been clamoring to unite against Cao, but Cao is not destroyed, they often fight happily!The alliance is like this, let alone promises?Naturally, I would not agree to Zhang Lu's request.However, Zhang Lu's envoy said that they are willing to give up Yangping Pass and even Hanzhong, as long as Zhang Lu continues to attack Chengdu!
After thinking about it carefully, even if Zhang Lu surrendered, Xiamen Pass would still have to be fought.Since Zhang Lu is willing to fight for me, why should I refuse!But when I knew that the guard of Xiamen Pass was the veteran Yan Yan, I knew that Zhang Lu would not be able to defeat Xiamen Pass!After getting my reply, Zhang Lu transferred all Yangping Pass defenders to Xiamen Pass, and I occupied Hanzhong very easily, but after occupying Hanzhong, I did not cut off Zhang Lu's food and grass, and asked Zhang Fei to lead troops to help he.When Liu Zhang heard that Zhang Lu had surrendered, he continued to attack Xiamen Pass with the help of our army. He was stupid at that time!
