Seeing that Cheng Yu had arranged for Liu Bei's elite troops to be stationed in the Prefectural Mufu, Huang Quan, Zhang Song and others couldn't help but shook their heads. He had obviously guessed what he was thinking and was just to defend himself.
"Ziqiao, Gongheng, it's up to you to declare Liu Yan's guilt and stabilize the situation in Chengdu."
Liu Bei glanced at the Yizhou nobles in front of him and directly cupped his fists at them.
"Don't worry, Mr. Xuande, we will naturally arrange these."
After hearing Liu Bei's words, Zhang Song directly clasped his fists at him, indicating that he knew what to do.
"good."
Liu Bei nodded, and now the cooperation between them has basically been completed. By the time Zhang Fei leads his army into the city, everything will be settled.
Chen Ji and Zhou Wan came to the city wall and immediately gathered the other two captains together and told them the news that Liu Yan was captured and Zhao Yu was killed.
After hearing what the two men said, the other two captains nodded directly and agreed to surrender to Liu Bei.
"Open the city gate."
Since everyone agreed to surrender, Zhou Wan did not hesitate and directly ordered the city gates to be opened to let Zhang Fei's troops enter the city.
"Crunch."
The heavy city gate of Chengdu slowly opened, and Zhang Fei, who was waiting outside the city, saw the city gate open and immediately understood that the war in the city had been decided.
"Enter the city."
Without hesitation, Zhang Fei waved his hand and ordered his troops to enter the city.
The 50,000-strong army entered Chengdu through the city gate without hesitation. Then the soldiers and horses first disarmed the defenders' weapons, then occupied the city wall, taking the entire city of Chengdu into their own hands.
At dawn the next day, the people in Chengdu woke up and discovered that Chengdu had changed its owner overnight. At the same time, the news that Liu Yan had sold Yizhou land to the Nanman also spread among the people.
Liu Yan dared to do such a thing, and the people were immediately angry.
Yizhou was their native place and could not just be handed over to the Nanman people.
"Lord, the people's support can be used."
Cheng Yu had already sent people to inquire about the news in the market. After getting the news, Cheng Yu reported directly to Liu Bei.
"Well, then let's make it known to Yizhou and ask Liu Yan to abdicate in favor of someone more worthy."
Now that the people's support is available, Liu Bei has nothing to say. Now he has to check the last step. Liu Yan will let the talents go to him and become the new ruler of Yizhou.
Soon Liu Yan personally handed over the seal of Yizhou Mu to Liu Bei in the presence of all the officials, and Liu Bei did not criticize him too much, and even rectified Liu Yan's name. Dong Fu was responsible for all the traitorous actions, and then he
Dong Fu beheaded him directly in front of the people.
After getting Yizhou Mu, Liu Bei directly consecrated Huang Quan as Yizhou Biejia and Zhang Song as Yizhou Engagement. At the same time, he sent Guan Yu and Zhang Fei to the two counties with Liu Yan's autograph letter and 50,000 troops to appease his generals.
, once again conscripted the people into the army to expand the army and prepare for war in preparation for Yuan Shu's attack.
The changes in Chengdu swept across all directions like a storm. After the defenders of Guanghan County and Dongguanghan County got the news, everyone was in danger. After all, they were subordinate to Liu Yan. Now that Liu Yan has fallen, what they fear most is Liu Bei's liquidation. When the time comes, they themselves
That's it.
After discussion, the soldiers of the two counties directly sent people to find Yuan Shu, hoping to express their intention to surrender to Yuan Shu.
A fast horse galloped out and headed north.
led troops to Mianzhu County in Guanghan County, but the defenders were hesitant and unwilling to surrender to Guan Yu. In their view, Guan Yu came here to deprive him of his military power. Instead of surrendering to Guan Yu, it would be better to wait for news from Yuan Shu and directly
It would be a good idea to go to Yuan Shu.
Guan Yu felt helpless when he saw that the general was unwilling to open the city gate. Mianzhu now had an army of fifty thousand, and it was impossible for him to rush in rashly.
"General, what should we do now?"
The captain glanced at Guan Yu, his eyes full of solemnity. Mianzhu was the gateway for Guanghan County to fight against Yuan Shu. If he could not win here, then the situation in Guanghan County would be dangerous.
"Send people to shoot arrows into the city, entangle all the new buildings collected by the families of the soldiers, tell them that their families and children are waiting for them to come back, and shoot arrows at Liu Yan's crimes to see how they respond."
Guan Yu thought for a while, and now all he can do is attack the city with the bottom and the heart above. The biggest reason why he united with the local nobles in Yizhou is their influence among the middle and lower classes. Now as long as he can capture these middle and lower class soldiers
If you have a strong heart, then even if these guards resist wholeheartedly, they can't stop you.
"promise."
The captain directly made a promise to Guan Yu, then arranged his troops and horses, and then shot the letters written by the families of the soldiers who had worked hard to recruit and Liu Yan's confession into Mianzhu.
The soldiers in Mianzhu Nei had tears in their eyes for a while when they saw the letters sent from the city. After all, although they were soldiers, they were also husbands, children, and fathers. Facing the letters from their families, a different atmosphere gradually spread in the city.
.
"General, it's not good. The enemy shot countless letters home from the city, as well as Liu Zhoumu's confession letter. Now the soldiers' anti-war sentiment is rising. How should we respond?"
A school captain came to the guard Zhang Ping with heavy steps. To be honest, he had also received a letter from home. He did not want to fight Guan Yu now, otherwise once the war actually started, their families would probably be in danger.
"Letter home?"
Wang Ping was also stunned when he heard what the captain said. He really didn't expect Guan Yu to do this. It was too insidious.
"Um."
The captain nodded to Wang Ping.
"The general trend is gone. You should prepare to surrender. I have no father, no mother, no wife, no children. If I am really captured by Guan Yu, I will probably be killed by him."
Looking at the captain, Wang Ping knew that Mianzhu could no longer hold on. Since the lower-level soldiers had received the letter from home, they would definitely not resist with him. If he persisted, he might be kidnapped by the soldiers next time.
Guan Yu.
"General, are you ready?"
Hearing Wang Ping's words, the captain was also stunned. What do you want to do if you surrender yourself?
"I am planning to go north to join Yuan Shu. There is no place for me in Chengdu."
The lieutenant shook his head. He was done. He could only go north to join Yuan Shu, and maybe there would be another development.
"I understand."
Seeing that Wang Ping had no choice but to leave, the captain also sighed, but there was nothing he could do about it. Now his family was in the hands of the other party. If they really resisted wholeheartedly, it would be over.
"Okay, I'm leaving. We'll see you later."
Wang Ping did not hesitate and left as soon as he said it. With one man and two horses, he left Mianyang City and ran towards the north.
After Wang Ping left, white flags were hung on the city walls of Mianzhu, announcing his surrender to Guan Yu.
"General, a white flag has been hung on the city wall."
The white flag at the top of the city was raised. When the captain got the news, he immediately reported to Guan Yu.
"Haha, I thought it would take a few days before the whole army was ready to enter the city."
Hearing the captain's news, Guan Yu just smiled slightly. Fortunately, Cheng Yu was well prepared when he came, otherwise it would be really difficult to capture Mianzhu.
"promise."
After receiving Guan Yu's order, 20,000 troops lined up outside the city.
"Open the city gate."
Seeing Guan Yu's troops arrayed under the city, the city gate creaked and slowly opened.
"Enter the city."
Seeing that the city gate was open, Guan Yu directly ordered his troops to enter the city without hesitation.
With Guan Yu as general, an army of 20,000 slowly marched into Mianyang and captured Guanghan County's gateway to Yuan Shu without a single blow.
Guan Yu captured Mianzhu here, and it was even easier for Zhang Fei. Yanting guard Li Yu directly chose to surrender. After all, his family members, old and young, were all in Chengdu. If he resisted, his relatives would definitely suffer immediately.
Zhang Fei led 30,000 troops to Yanting and took control of the 50,000 troops.
"My lord, the second general and the third general have captured the troops of Guanghan County and Dongguanghan County. The hundred thousand troops are all under our control without any loss of blood."
