......
After breaking through Fucheng, the army led by Lu Yan marched straight towards Luocheng and Mianzhuguan.
After Cao Jun entered the hinterland of Yizhou, he still did not commit any crimes against the people. This also made the people in Xichuan, who were a little trembling, gradually let go of their worries.
As the army moved forward, the soldiers were silent, only the sound of rumbling footsteps and the trampling of horseshoes.
The people who saw this scene couldn't help being shocked in their hearts, shocked by Cao Jun's military discipline, and even more shocked by Cao Jun's soaring evil spirit and iron-blooded military might emanating from his bones!
In the distance, there were a few people who were working in the fields, but now they were hiding in the dark and watching Cao's army advancing fast. One of them said:
"It seems that Cao Jun's military discipline is as strict as the rumors say."
"Alas... our Xichuan will also have the surname Cao!" A young man who looked only in his twenties couldn't help but sigh with emotion.
"Slap!" There was a middle-aged man next to the young man. When he heard the young man's words, he couldn't help but slapped him on the back of the head, and cursed angrily, "What nonsense! That's the imperial army, isn't it?" Cao Cao's army!"
The young man was obviously not convinced, he glared angrily, and shouted: "Who doesn't know that the current court is being defeated by Cao Cao..."
An old farmer next to the young man quickly covered his mouth and said in panic, "Hush your voice! Are you dying?"
After being covered in such a way, the young man finally came back to his senses, shook his head repeatedly and said, "I'm sorry, I didn't mean to..."
Lu Yan rode on the white dragon horse, and saw many people pointing and pointing at his army along the way. Most of these people could only stay in Sichuan for the rest of their lives. Thinking about it, it was actually quite pitiful.
At this moment, a scout suddenly came forward to report: "Report! General! We caught a spy. He said he came from Chengdu, and he has something extremely important for you!"
Lu Yan glanced at Xu Shu, Zhuge Liang, and Lu Xun who were beside him, and then said, "Bring him up."
"promise!"
After the scouts left, Lu Yan asked Xu Shu and the others: "The man from Chengdu, what do you think he is here for?"
"I'm afraid I know that big brother is about to come to Luocheng, so I'm here to ask you to surrender..." Lu Xun said half-jokingly.
However, after Lu Xun finished speaking, he found them staring at him in surprise.
Lu Xun was stunned for a moment, then came back to his senses, and said, "No way, did I really hit the mark?"
Xu Shu said with a smile: "The future generations are awesome, the future generations are awesome!"
Lu Xun: "..."
I just wanted to make a joke, but I didn't expect to poke the truth...
Soon, the scouts went back and forth, and behind him were four scouts and a "spies" who had been trapped into dumplings.
Although the man was not tall, he was very strong, and his steps were very steady. He could tell he was from the army at a glance.
Although the man was tied up, he still wanted to move forward when he was about ten steps in front of Lu Yan, but after half a step, he was held down by the shoulders of the scouts around him, and kicked hard at his feet. With a kick, he fell to one knee unexpectedly.
After the man knelt down, he still wanted to struggle, but the scout team was yelling: "This is the current Hussar General, don't be presumptuous!"
After hearing the word Hussar General, the man finally stopped resisting. He looked up at Lu Yan who was riding on the horse, who looked more like a scribe than a general, and shouted: "Lu Hussar, General Yamen Mengda has an important letter. Leave it to you!"
After hearing this, the scout captain around him quickly groped for him. Sure enough, the captain quickly found a sealed letter on him.
After Lu Yan received the secret letter from the captain, he couldn't help but take another look at the sender, "This young man is physically strong, unflappable in the face of danger, and his eyes are resolute and bold..."
Thinking of this, when Lu Yan tore open the envelope, he asked casually: "What's your name, where are you from?"
The "spies" obviously didn't expect that Lu Yan would ask him about his identity, and for a while he was a little dazed and forgot to answer.
"Lu Hussar is asking you something, why are you staring blankly?" The scout captain reminded him with a gentle kick.
After regaining his senses, the young man quickly replied: "I am Zhangyi, named Boqi, from Nanchongguo County, Brazil County. He was promoted to be a centurion because he quelled the Bandit Rebellion earlier."
"Huh, Zhang Yi?"
After Lu Yan heard this person's name, a light flashed in his eyes.
Many people may not know Zhang Xie's name, but in the late Three Kingdoms period, he was already one of the few "famous generals" in the Shu Kingdom.
Zhang Ni, born in poverty, is open-minded and heroic, and has been in Nanzhong for 15 years, and the county is peaceful and the people are safe.
At that time, when the Shu Han court conscripted Zhang Ni to return to Chengdu, the local people cried for Zhang Ni's departure. There were more than a hundred people who followed Zhang Ni and joined Zhang Ni's army.After Zhang Ni returned to Chengdu, he was worshiped as the general of the gangsters.
He is a talented and promising young man, Lu Yan never has too many such people.
"Zhang Xi, right...I heard about it before. It seems that mountain bandits invaded the county, and the county magistrate fled with his family. But one person brought the county magistrate's wife with him, braving the bandits' swords, guns, swords and halberds, and killed him. The magistrate's wife was rescued just after a bloody road. You were the one who said it, right?" Lu Yan asked casually with a smile.
The more Zhang Xi listened, the wider his eyes widened, "Huss... General Hussars... You have heard of this???"
No matter what, Zhang Xi never imagined that a well-known person like Lu Yan would have heard and remembered the deeds of such a small person like himself. How could Zhang Xi not be shocked and moved by this?
Lu Yan looked at the scout captain and said, "Untie this righteous man."
"Here!" The scouts didn't dare to neglect, and untied the rope on Zhang Xie's body three times and five times.
Zhang Xie moved his sore arm, and at this moment Lu Yan asked again: "Do you know the content of this letter?"
Zhang Xie raised his head, with a lonely expression in his eyes, and then replied: "General Meng and many officials put pressure on Liu Yizhou...It has always been about surrendering to Lu Huqi."
"Yes, courageous and knowledgeable!" Lu Yan nodded, first praised, and then asked: "Zhang Xie, would you like to join our army? Dragon Cavalry Army, Wolf Cavalry Battalion, Beiwei Army, it's up to you .”
"O!" Zhang Xi opened his mouth wide, his face full of disbelief.
The scout captain next to Zhang Xie reminded a little sourly: "You kid is out of luck, why are you still standing there?"
"Ah!" Zhang Xie came back to his senses again, and replied in a strange way: "I want to join your personal guard camp..."
"..."
Chapter 623 I can't beat it, why not join
As soon as the words came out of his mouth, Zhang Xi regretted it.
Everyone knows that Lu Yan's personal guard camp is the birthplace of famous generals and the concentration camp of generals.
Thinking that he, Zhang Xi, was born in a poor family and his family was poor, if it wasn't for accidentally helping the county magistrate's wife, he might still be able to work as a petty official all his life.
Zhang Xi felt annoyed for a while, he didn't understand why he would suddenly make such a request,
"What am I talking about! Lu Hussars has been kind enough to allow me to join the world-renowned army. It is already a great blessing for me...Why did I make such a rude request just now?"
"I'm not usually so reckless, but why did I say these words so naturally? It's so embarrassing..."
The scouts beside him, including the captain, were all dumbfounded. They felt that this kid really has something, and he dared to ask Lu Hussar, "I admire it!"
"..."
Lu Xun and Zhuge Liang glanced at Lu Yan calmly.
They all knew that Lu Yan had an extraordinary ability to recognize people, and that the poor boy in front of him could be treated differently by Lu Yan, which already showed that he must have something extraordinary in him.
Although only three breaths had passed, the people around felt as if too long had passed.
After three breaths, Lu Yan poured out two words and said, "Yes."
Except for Zhuge Liang and Lu Xun, everyone was shocked by Lu Yan's words.
"Answer... agreed???" Zhang Xi was stunned, with an unbelievable look, as if he was in the most beautiful dream in the world.
"This... this... this is okay?" The captain of the scout opened his mouth into an O shape. He didn't understand why this guy was so lucky that he got Lu Hussar just because he sent a letter. Do you see it differently? !
Zhang Xie finally recovered from his trance, he quickly clasped his fists in thanks and said, "Thank you Lu Hussar!"
"Get up." Lu Yan said with a smile: "You are about the same age as Chen Dao and Huang Xu. From now on, you will follow them to familiarize yourself with our army's military regulations. As long as you have real skills, you will naturally have no worries about your future."
"This kid is going to turn a crow into a phoenix!"
"Damn! Why don't you just send a letter! It's okay for me!"
"Damn, this luck is simply..."
Hearing the whispers of the people around, Zhang Xie replied again: "Here!"
Immediately, Chen Dao and Huang Xu came out, one of them grabbed Zhang Xie's arm and said, "Get up, you will be our brother from now on."
"I have seen two generals!"
"That's right, if you can be appreciated by your husband, you will have a bright future!"
......
After a small episode, Lu Yan led the army to move on.
Not far ahead is Luocheng, and after Luocheng, pass Mianzhuguan, and Chengdu is just around the corner.
Wu Lan, Zhang Ren, Gao Pei and others were captured or killed one after another. Wu Yi led a lone army to retreat to Luocheng, fearful and frowning all day long.
Wu Yi is a son of a rich family in Yizhou. He has to consider not only himself, but also the huge family behind him.
But if he were to give up resistance and surrender directly, Wu Yi would definitely not be able to lose face. Then, what should he do after Cao Jun arrives?
There are several other generals in Luocheng at the moment, namely Zhang Yi, Lei Tong, Zhuo Ying, and Fei Guan, plus Wu Lan who was captured alive by Cao Jun in Fucheng. These people are already Wu Yi's confidantes.
Since I can't make up my mind, why don't I ask the opinions of my generals?
Thinking of this, Wu Yi asked people to summon Zhang Yi, Lei Tong, Zhuo Ying, and Fei Guan to decide the way out for Luo Cheng and himself and the others.
The four came together quickly, Wu Yi looked around at Zhang Yi, Lei Tong, Zhuo Ying, and Fei Guan, pointed to the positions in the hall and said, "Sit down and talk."
These four are all Wu Yi's confidantes, and they don't need to shy away from being together too much.
Therefore, Wu Yi stated his thoughts once again. As for whether to surrender or stick to the end, it is up to everyone to decide, and the minority must obey the majority.
After talking about his own thoughts, Wu Yi asked the four of them: "I think you all understand what I mean, tell me, what are you thinking now?"
Zhang Yi, Lei Tong, Zhuo Ying, and Fei Guan are all veterans who have followed Wu Yi for many years, and they are also Wu Yi's heart-to-heart friends.
In fact, before Wu Yi summoned them, they had discussed in private about Cao Jun's invasion of the hinterland of Sichuan. Now, after listening to Wu Yi's words, the four of them all knew the current situation, and they might have reached an irreversible moment. up.
Cao Jun is too strong, whether it is commander, counselor, general or soldier, they are not comparable to Yizhou Army, and now that Yizhou's only geographical advantage is gone, what else do they have to contend with Cao Jun?
The four of them glanced at each other, each knew what was going on in the other's mind, after all, Dayi was with the other side now, and they had no reason to stick to it to the end, since they could live, who would want to die?
After making eye contact for less than a minute, Zhang Yi, Lei Tong, Zhuo Ying, and Fei Guan all stood up at the same time, bowed their hands to Wu Yi, and said, "General, we will follow your lead in everything!"
Wu Yi understood what they meant after hearing what they said.
That being the case, Wu Yi straightened up the topic, saying: "The Liu family and his son intend to separate Xichuan and stand on their own. In the past, we could only seek self-protection due to the chaos in the world, so we had to commit ourselves to the thieves... But now, since the imperial court heavenly soldiers We have already invaded the middle of Shu, so we, as Han subjects, can no longer help the tyrant! Therefore, after careful consideration, I intend to surrender to Cao Jun, what do you think?"
Zhang Yi, Lei Tong, Zhuo Ying, and Fei Guan couldn't help showing a gleam of joy when they heard the words, and said, "Follow the general's orders!"
After the four of them gave a unified answer, Wu Yi breathed a sigh of relief, as long as his subordinates agreed, then the matter would be considered settled.
As for the few civil servants in the city, they will be directly tied up to see Lu Yan at that time. I believe that Lu Yan's behavior should still let them survive.
In the 12th year of Jian'an, at the end of August.
Cao Ren and Wei Yan each led [-] troops from Fushui to Fucheng and joined forces with Lu Yan.
So far, together with the original [-] soldiers under Lu Yan's command, he now has a full [-] troops in his hands!
In the 12th year of Jian'an, in mid-September, Lu Yan led his army to the outside of Luocheng.
Wu Yi, Zhang Yi, Lei Tong, Zhuo Ying, Fei Guan and others on the city wall looked at Cao Jun who couldn't see the end in the distance, all of them changed their expressions and felt shocked.
"In the battle in Jiange Dao, I didn't see Cao Jun's formation..."
"Looking at it now, the number one army in the world really deserves its reputation!"
"We are worthy of the powerful army that wiped out the princes of the world, and we will not be wronged if we lose!"
After hearing the emotions of the people behind him, Wu Yi sighed and said, "Let's do it, but remember not to hurt the gentlemen."
"Here!" Zhang Yi, Lei Tong, Zhuo Ying, and Fei Guan comprehended, and took the order with their hands clasped together.
Wu Yi made people raise the white flag, conveying to Cao Jun that he wanted to surrender directly.
In the city guard's mansion, Lu Kai, Wang Kang and others who were still busy with their official duties suddenly saw a group of soldiers breaking into the hall.
"Who are you?" Lu Kai asked in surprise after seeing the faces of Zhang Yi and the others.
"Gentlemen, I've offended you!" Zhang Yi didn't say much, and after apologizing, he waved his hand and ordered the people to tie up all the civil servants here.
"???"
Lu Kai, Wang Kang and others looked at each other in blank dismay, but they were not fools, and after a little thought, they understood the intention of this group of people.
"Actually...you don't have to do that." Wang Kanggan said dumbfoundedly as he looked at his body bound up in a fancy way.
Lei Tong remained expressionless, and said, "Save your words until you see Lu Huqi, take them away!"
