Survival Three Kingdoms

Chapter 858 The Death of Mengda
Clearly winning, Deng Ai was startled, everyone didn't understand why, so Zhou Xin hurriedly asked why.

Deng Ai replied: "Deng Liang didn't see Jiang Wei when he went to Qi County, and yesterday Sha Zan sent Zhang Man a message saying that Jiang Wei was not in Jiangyang either, so where is Jiang Wei? He must have gone to Brazil, and I didn't see him rescue Deyang , I didn’t see him attacking Jiangzhou, I guess Jiang Wei went to Badong from Brazil to attack Yong’an, trying to cut off our army’s retreat.” After saying this, he cupped his hands at Deng Zhi: “It’s a pity that I didn’t listen to General Bo Miao’s words. If you divide up your troops, maybe you can meet Jiang Wei in Brazil, and now Yong'an is in danger! Su Li is definitely not Jiang Wei's opponent, so reinforce him immediately!"

Deng Zhi hurriedly said: "Taking Deyang first is a safe strategy, what's wrong?"

Zhou Xin pondered for a while and asked Deng Liang: "How many soldiers and horses does Li Fu have under his command? What can this person do?"

"Li Fu was originally a confidant of Meng Da in Shangyong, and followed Deng Xian into Sichuan. Meng Da was appointed Sima and recommended him as the governor of Dongguanghan, and Deng Xian was the governor of Guanghan. I think Li Fu has about 3000 people under his command, and he recruited thousands of young men. As for what to do, like Zhang Yi and Ma Zhong."

"Since I dispatched troops, I have been in a state of invincibility. Chengdu has been shocked three times a day. I should take advantage of this time to go straight to Chengdu. Jiang Wei is only a lone army to take Chengdu. What is the use of winning Yong'an?" Zhou Xin said with a smile: "In my opinion, It’s better to follow Jiang Wei’s wish and give Yong’an to him.”

Deng Zhi repeatedly claimed that it was wonderful: "Jiang Wei thinks he has a plan, so he doesn't care about other things, and winning Yong'an becomes his burden."

Zhou Xin nodded and said: "General Bo Miao, I will give you and your father and son 1 horses and [-] young men to go to Brazil. You don't have to fight Jiang Wei. You only need to be stationed in Dangqu so that he will never return!"

"The end will obey orders!"

"Send an order to Wen Xiang to take over Su Li and give Yong'an to Jiang Wei, but don't leave him a single grain of rice! Li Hao, you send someone back to Jingzhou urgently, and order Tai Shixiang to lead the army to station in Zigui. Jiang Wei jumped the wall and invaded Jingzhou in a hurry, which made Huang Xu more careful." Zhou Xin turned to Deng Ai and said: "Although Pengfei has Deng Liang's help, Sha Zan also has Zhang Man to support him. You still need to take down Guanghan Second County as soon as possible. Otherwise, Sha Zan will take the lead."

Now Deng Zhi and Zhou Xin split up to go to Dangqu, but Deng Ai didn't want to fall behind Sha Zan, so he ordered Qu Feng to kill and go to Qi County first.

Only three days after Deng Liang left, the Shu soldiers who had escaped from Deyang arrived in Qi County.Li Fu was terrified, and Li Yan's 2 troops were defeated again and again. How could such a small town with his own people resist the Han army? , Seven thousand young and strong, Deng Xian urgently asked Chengdu for help and asked Meng Da for advice.

Zhang Man is very obedient and has to be obedient.As soon as Sha Zan's army arrived, he put Zhang Yi and his son under house arrest in the mansion, and Kaesong surrendered.Sha Zan came to lobby in person, Zhang Yi claimed that he was too old to drive, Sha Zan promised to provide for the elderly, Zhang Yu knew that the overall situation had been decided and asked to surrender.

Sha Zan ordered Zhang Yu to write a letter to Yan Yu, the prefect of Qianwei, to ask for help, and he led his troops to ambush in the main road. Yan Yu didn't know that 3000 people came to rescue Zhongsha Zan, and Nagu and Lihu worked extremely hard to merge. Fight Yan Yu and kill him.

Leaving Zhang Yu in Jiangyang, Sha Zan took Zhang Man as his guide, went out of Neijiang to Qianwei, and captured Wuyang, which was only one step away from Chengdu.

Chengdu was indeed shocked three times a day. The news of Li Yan's defeat in Jiangzhou shocked the whole court. Even though Qiao Zhou and Guo Youzhi were not in tandem, people kept writing letters asking for peace.Everyone looked at Meng Da in unison. Li Yan and Jiang Wei were not around, so Meng Da had the most say. Not only did Meng Da have military power, Guanghan and Dongguanghan counties were also controlled by Meng Da.

Meng Da knew that it was impossible to turn defeat into victory again, only to surrender.But I also remembered what Sha Zan said to himself at the beginning, that it is okay to persuade Liu Xun to surrender, or to stand on his own.Now that Liu Xun wants to surrender, what should he do?If he could persuade Liu Xun to surrender as soon as he returned to Yizhou, it would be a great achievement, but if he surrendered at this moment, it would not be his leadership, and the so-called credit would be lost.

The first thing he thought of was to kill Liu Xun, and then ask for his surrender, so as to monopolize the merit of sacrificing the city, but he didn't dare because of the lessons learned by Chen Zhi and Huang Hao.So he thought that he could put Liu Xun and all the ministers under house arrest, so that all the credit would belong to him.

For a proper period, Meng Da did not inform Zhang Biao, Fa Miao and others, but called Sha Meng, who he considered to be his confidant, and ordered him to mobilize his men to besiege the Shu Palace, put Liu Xun under house arrest, and then inform Deng Xian and Li Fu surrendered and brought Zhou Xin to Chengdu.Of course, Sha Meng would not do what he wanted. He leaked the news to Wang Han, the Central Supervision Army before dispatching troops. How to reveal that he had to stick to Sima Mansion and fight with Wang Han and others. Sha Meng took the opportunity to insert a knife in Meng Da's back, stabbed Meng Da to death, and sneaked out of Chengdu by himself among the chaos.

The two armies fought, Chengdu was in chaos, and rumors were flying, some said that Meng Da rebelled, some said that Wang Han was fighting for power, and some said that the Han army had sneaked into the city. Taking advantage of the fire and looting, the common people and merchants suffered, but the courtiers who lived in the house and guards were not spared. The admonishing doctor Fei Shi, Shangshu Dong Jue and others died in the turmoil.Liu Xun was busy with calming down the chaos, so the surrender and peace negotiations had to be put aside temporarily.

After lying down outside the city for two days, someone fled from Qianwei. Sha Meng learned that Sha Zan's soldiers had arrived, so he rushed to Qianwei to join Sha Meng in Wuyang.Sha Zan was deeply surprised by Sha Meng's accurate timing and strategy. Could it be Meng Da's training?Meng Da, Meng Da, as Zhou Cang said, the Tianling Gai grew on his forehead, and in the end he had to suffer on his own. If it wasn't for Sha Meng's actions, it would be really hard to deal with Liu Xun's surrender after being put under house arrest by Meng Da.

Sha Meng urged Sha Zan to go to Chengdu as soon as possible, but Sha Zan hesitated. He didn't know what happened to Deng Ai when his journey was so smooth. He won the bet but it was not good for Deng Ai to lose face, so he stayed in Wuyang for two days, which was an extra gift Ai two days.

Deng Xian and Li Fu were still unaware of the chaos in Chengdu. Deng Ai entered Qi County without hindrance, and Qu Fengxian approached Luocheng with his troops.war?Shou?drop?escape?The two couldn't decide to pay attention.

Han Lang offered a plan: "The Han army advances and thinks it is invincible. General Li Fu can go to fight with it and feign defeat. General Deng Xian and I can set up an ambush to break the enemy."

Deng Xian shook his head: "There is still no reply from my uncle, so it is not suitable to go to war. If my uncle intends to surrender, I will worship the Han army, which is not beautiful."

Han Lang smiled and said: "How can Zhou Xin know the general's ability when the Han army is undefeated? You only need to defeat the army, but not the general. If you can capture him alive, how wonderful it is?"

Deng Xian couldn't make up his mind and looked at Li Fu, Li Fu hesitated and said: "This is an expedient measure. If the enemy captures him, he will treat him kindly. If Sima is in peace, he will give him favor and then he can introduce me; If Sima takes the lead in the battle, it won't be too late to kill him."
