Chapter 242 Jiangdong Secret Letter

On the city wall of Chengdu, two figures standing side by side looked down at the camp of Huang Zhong's army in the distance, looking very desolate.

"Gongyi, we have been besieged by Yuan Shu's army for nearly a month, how long can you hold on?" Wu Yi looked at the seemingly ordinary man next to him with a majestic face in awe, and said calmly.

Heroes emerge from troubled times, and strong generals emerge from adversity. When Liu Yan thought that the end was over, Zhang Ren, a little-known general, stood out in the battle to defend Chengdu, and turned the tide and stabilized the situation in one fell swoop, causing Huang Zhong's army to attack several times.

The attack failed and returned, which stabilized the hearts of the people in Chengdu.

The ability shown by Zhang Ren made Wu Yi, a great general, look at him with suspicion. However, such a good general only served as a hundred-man general before! Wu Yi really didn't understand what was going on with the generals leading the army? Is he a fool?

In this desperate situation, Liu Yan showed amazing courage. He, who had always been cowardly, actually stood on the battlefield and supervised the battle on the city wall. It was precisely because of this that Zhang Ren, a good general, was discovered by Liu Yan.

There is no other way. Anyone who sees that our own soldiers are suppressed on the battlefield is one-sided. There is only a troop of no more than a hundred people under the leadership of a fierce general, but it is extremely brave and constantly rushes left and right to assist the friendly forces. They will understand that this person must

There are good generals.

Although Zhang Ren has an ordinary appearance and average temperament, his abilities are real. As Zhao Yun's senior brother, even though Zhang Ren is good at leading troops rather than martial arts, his second-rate martial arts is still not comparable to that of the weak generals in Yizhou.

On the battlefield, his martial arts skills are also vividly demonstrated.

Liu Yan was now like a man about to drown. As soon as he found Zhang Ren's life-saving straw, he grabbed him tightly. After the battlefield ended that day, he made him a hussar general and commanded more than 40,000 troops in Chengdu.

Didn't Liu Yan only have 20,000 troops left? How did these more than 40,000 troops come from?

Naturally, Liu Yan once again tricked the family from the family. Since the army outside the city was completely annihilated, Liu Yan was completely cornered, and he repeated his old tricks again, forcing the family to provide more troops. He knew that the family would definitely

He also had hidden secrets, so he acted more decisively. He directly wiped out several small aristocratic families that he didn't like.

From this, an army of nearly 10,000 people was obtained, and then the remaining aristocratic families pieced together another army of more than 10,000 people under Liu Yan's intimidation, thus completing the current team.

"As long as my lord doesn't give up, I can keep going." Zhang Ren said firmly.

A soldier died for his confidant. Liu Yan's hasty and crazy actions in the face of desperation still moved Zhang Ren. He was directly promoted from a young general to a hussar general. What a great trust! Zhang Ren is now quite talented.

The determination to be willing to go through fire and water for Liu Yan.

Wu Yi glanced at Zhang Ren casually: "Now that most of our troops have been killed or wounded, the remaining soldiers may not be enough to last for much longer!"

How could he not see that Zhang Ren was now close to his limit, and that he could only hold on until now because of his extraordinary will. In the past month, Huang Zhong had been attacking the city day and night, although the thunder was loud and the rain was light,

However, the disparity in strength between the two armies caused Chengdu to suffer too serious losses. Zhang Ren has not left the city wall this month. He has been directing the battle most of the time, and has to go out to put out fires himself from time to time. He has become very skilled.

Exhausted.

Zhang Ren remained silent in the face of Wu Yi's inquiry. Why couldn't he understand the current situation? No matter how brave he was, Yizhou's poorly trained soldiers and the miscellaneous soldiers from the aristocratic families could hold Chengdu for one month.

It has reached its limit. Now there is a danger of the entire army being defeated in every battle. If it were not for his constant support with force, Chengdu would have changed hands long ago.

"What are you going to do if Chengdu is destroyed?" Wu Yi asked after noticing Zhang Ren was silent.

"Lead your majesty out of the siege!" Zhang Ren said calmly.

"Then what if His Majesty refuses to leave?" Wu Yi knew the current situation and Liu Yan's character even more clearly. In this situation, Liu Yan could not possibly choose to run away in despair, nor could he run away. The most likely possibility was to take him with him

The noble family under his command perished together.

Zhang Ren was silent again. He looked at the big banner with Liu characters at his hand with his eyes darkened. Countless complex emotions flashed in his eyes. Why hadn't he thought about this? It's just that he hadn't continued to think about it. He didn't want to see this scene.

.

"Your Majesty has no way out now, but he still has concerns about the aristocratic family and the prince! If General Hussar is loyal to your Majesty, why doesn't he help your Majesty fulfill his last wish?" Wu Yi looked directly at Zhang Rendao.

"What does the general mean by this?" Zhang Ren asked, feeling startled.

"General is not a rude person, you should understand your Majesty's heart!" Wu Yi said without changing his expression.

"The person your Majesty hates the most is not Yuan Shu. It is understandable for princes to quarrel with each other, but the family has gone too far. I believe the general also understands!"

"So the general misses me?" Zhang Ren is not that easy to fool, and he is not the kind of general who is not very smart. If the four-dimensional data is converted into data, Zhang Ren's force and intelligence are both above 80, and he can

It can be said that he is brave and resourceful.

Zhang Ren would not be fooled by Wu Yi so easily. Wu Yi must have had his own little thoughts when he said this.

"Since General Zhang Ren is so loyal to Your Majesty, I will make it clear." Wu Yi lowered his voice: "The Yizhou family and Your Majesty are now mortal enemies. Your Majesty also knows that the situation is over now, and the one you worry about is yourself.

His funeral affairs mainly concern His Royal Highness, so it is imperative to get rid of the Yizhou family."

"Do you need Ren's help with this matter?" Zhang Ren hesitated. Even as upright and fearless as he was, he also understood the terror of the aristocratic family, and it was difficult to move forward if he offended the aristocratic family. However, considering Liu Yan's kindness to him, he was willing to do such a stupid thing.

"No need." Wu Yi smiled and said, "The general and I are His Majesty's trustees, so naturally we cannot do such a hateful thing."

"But relying on the lord alone?" Zhang Ren asked worriedly.

Wu Yi waved his hand: "You are worrying too much about justice. The palace of a king is beyond our imagination. Do you really think that the lord lets the family go so far without leaving any backup options? The lord will solve the problem of annihilating the family. There is no need for it.

I'll wait to intervene."

"Then why are you looking for me, General?"

"Prince Liu Zhang!" Wu Yi said seriously. Although he was not very loyal to Liu Yan originally, he just had a good relationship with his parents. But there was no way. Now he had only two ways to go to Yizhou, or he could accompany the Yizhou family.

Either die, or be willing to be Liu Yan's pawn.

"Your Majesty knows that this battle will be defeated, so he entrusts the prince to you and me. We need to surrender to Jiangdong after the defeat and protect the prince throughout his life."

Zhang Ren frowned: "General, are you kidding me? How could Jiangdong allow the prince to exist? I can't wait to lead the prince out of the siege and find another place."

Wu Yi shook his head helplessly: "Look for another place? Where else? You have also seen the power of Jiangdong. The road to Hanzhong has been blocked, and the southern barbarians have a narrow escape. It is possible that the general will take the prince to defect to those small barbarian countries.

?Do you think this will be viable?"

"Then we can't let the prince seek his own death!" Zhang Ren said angrily: "How can I, the general of Yizhou, grovel and be a traitor to others for glory?"

"You are just and don't be angry." Wu Yi quickly looked around and found that there were no soldiers nearby. He breathed a sigh of relief and whispered: "Going to Jiangdong is not a way of seeking death. On the contrary, it is the only way for His Royal Highness to survive. And this way of survival is

, we need a general to get through it."

"What do you mean?" Seeing Wu Yi's serious face and not talking nonsense, Zhang Ren calmed down and asked.

"There is a secret envoy from Jiangdong to send a letter to your Majesty. If the general can surrender after the city is broken, as long as the lord and his family don't mess around, they will not touch a hair of the lord's family." Wu Yi said with a solemn face, and there was something in his tone.

A hint of bitterness.
