It was night, the sky was dark, and the pale moonlight fell on the northwest land, and the bonfires inside and outside the city were lit on the earth like stars in the sky.

In the dilapidated thatched hut, under the flickering lights, Zhang Ye and several generals of the Wei Army gathered together.

Zhang Ye looked around the crowd with a serious face, and said righteously: "The food and grass in the city are running out, General Zhang He died in battle, and Da Sima died of illness. We are cut off from the outside world, and we are at the end of the mountain. We have been sticking to it since last year. For half a year, I have repaid the favor to the imperial court and promised Yang Fu's words without regret. Therefore, what I have done today is what we have to do, just to survive!"

After a pause, Zhang Ye said in a deep voice: "Today's affairs are progressing but not retreating. If we tie up Yang Fu and dedicate the city to Wei Yan, we will be rich and honored for the rest of our lives."

"What brother Zhang said is true, but is there anyone who hesitates?" The person who said this secretly held the hand-wrapped knife at his waist, and looked around at the other people.

Zhang Ye glanced around and saw that there was no objection, and ordered: "Generals, please bring your personal guards, and follow Ye to the county government to capture Yang Fu."

"promise!"

……

The lights in the county mansion were dim, and there were only a few personal guards. Yang Fu returned to the house to wash after finishing his tour of the city.

Holding the wet hemp towel in his hands, Yang Fu rubbed his face a few times, looking up at his old self in the bronze mirror, a feeling of sadness welled up in his heart.His son died early, and only his grandson Yang Bao was with him. Now that he is trapped in Jincheng, who can collect his body and return his soul to his hometown?

To be honest, if his grandson Yang Bao was not in Luoyang, Yang Fu might have the intention of surrendering, but for the life of his grandson, Yang Fu could only sacrifice himself to repay Cao Wei.

Thinking, thinking.Sorrow came from it, and Yang Fu couldn't help tears overflowing, wet his eyes, and blocked them with the wet hemp towel in his hand.

Suddenly, there was a lot of noise outside the mansion. Zhang Ye and others led nearly a hundred cronies from Dao Street to the outside of the county mansion, preparing to force their way into the mansion.

"Inspector Yang, Zhang Ye led the crowd to forcibly enter the mansion." The guards hurriedly reported.

Hearing this, Yang Fu calmed down, threw the wet towel into the water basin, splashed water, and said in a deep voice, "Okay!"

As he spoke, Yang Fu sneered, strode out, stood on the steps, stared at Zhang Ye and the others who had poured into the mansion, and scolded, "You acted without a military order, don't you think you want to plot rebellion?"

Zhang Ye and others did not dare to look directly into Yang Fu's majestic eyes, tilted their heads slightly, and said in a cold voice: "Inspector Yang, today I am waiting for the lives of thousands of soldiers to be in your hands, and Ye is going tonight for nothing else, just for the brothers Find a way out."

Standing on the steps, Yang Fu looked at the people who were planning to do something wrong, and said calmly: "If people don't know propriety, justice and shame, what's the point of living in the world! This year, the army will definitely come to support. If you can stick together with Fu, when the reinforcements arrive, Don't talk about high officials and rich salary. Besides, if you behave like this, don't you consider your wives and children who are far away in Luoyang?"

Everyone was a little ashamed, and they dared not look directly at Yang Fu's eyes.

Zhang Ye stared at Yang Fu and said tauntingly, "The guard of Qishan Fort, Gao Gang, has stood guard for a hundred days, and the imperial court also executed and beheaded his family members to intimidate the generals. Now I'm waiting for the news to be closed. The young one either died an untimely death, or was demoted to slavery. How dare Inspector Yang speak up?"

After a pause, Zhang Ye continued: "Since the governor spoke of propriety, righteousness and shame, I dare to ask the governor, as a minister of the Han Dynasty, why he surrendered to Cao Wei, and why did he not return to righteousness when the great Han returned to Lianglong?"

As he said that, Zhang Ye looked at the soldiers behind him to bewitch him, and said, "Cao Pi is rebelling against the great Han, and now the heavenly soldiers of the Great Han are approaching, and our attachment is to set things right. live."

There is no doubt that the justice of the Great Han Northern Expedition came out at this time.Cao Pi rebels, the great Han crusades, the generals are anyway, it is a righteous act!As a result, the commanding heights are here, and the psychological barriers of the surrendered people disappear.

Zhang Ye strode forward, hacked to death the guards around Yang Fu, and approached Yang Fu.

Although Yang Fu is old, he is also ruthless.After all, when he was young, he fought with Ma Chao and was seriously injured in five places, and seven clan brothers died in battle.

With a clang, Yang Fu pulled out the Han sword and slashed at the surrounding rebels, a gesture of swearing to die.

It is a pity that Yang Fu is no longer the man he was 20 years ago. Zhang Ye, with quick hands and quick eyesight, made a big stride in fencing, and directly lifted the Han sword in Yang Fu's hand, and three or four soldiers of the Wei army captured him.

Yang Fu struggled and cursed loudly, saying: "Zhang Ye Shuzi, don't you hear about the rewards of eating the king, and share your worries for the king?"

Zhang Ye sneered, he didn't want to argue with Yang Fu, so he ordered someone to gag Yang Fu's mouth, tie him up with a rope, and ask Wei Yan to surrender in the morning.

……

In the early morning of the next day, the west gate of Jincheng opened wide, Zhang Ye was in front, Yang Fu was tied behind, and all the generals followed closely to surrender the city.

With a smile on his face, Wei Yan put his sword on his hand, and said to the generals under his command: "Jincheng surrendered, Liangzhou is flat, this is the merit of our soldiers in Liangzhou."

As he said that, Zhang Ye led the crowd to knelt down and held the military talisman and the army roster in their hands, and said respectfully: "I report to the governor, there are 500 people who have surrendered, and there are still 1000 taels, more than [-] stones, and [-] armors. Leader, eight hundred bows and crossbows. All the tiger charms and rosters are presented, and I hope the governor will inspect them."

Wei Yan held out his chest and raised his head, took the Tiger Talisman and pinned it to his waist, and signaled Chen Shi to come forward to deliver the rest.

Wei Yan accepted Zhang Ye's request to surrender, and ordered: "Zhongfa (Chen Shi) entered the city with General Zhang, took over the city, and informed the people of Jincheng who were last year to return to their hometowns, stabilize their houses, and don't waste the spring."

"No!" Chen Shi replied.

Wei Yan looked at Yang Fu, who was tied up beside him, and remembered the words His Majesty told him when he was in the cold. He took off the towel from his mouth, cupped his hands and said respectfully: "Mr. Yang is also surprised. Cao Zhen died of illness today, and the army is all guarding the pass. Now that the matter has come to this, Mr. Yang should not lose to the Cao family, I wonder if he is willing to surrender today?"

"If you surrender, Yanbiao invites you to be the governor of Liangzhou, and asks you to make him a township lord. From now on, you will not let him be an enemy of Cao Wei." Wei Yan said sincerely.

Yang Fu raised his head and laughed loudly, his messy gray and white temple hair fluttering in the wind, and said sadly: "Fu was born as a minister of Cao's family and died as a ghost of Cao's family. He is not like him who framed and flattered thieves. General, please don't say too much , please kill me quickly!"

Looking at this scene, Wei Yan hesitated to speak, sighed, and said: "Mr. has the ambition to devote himself. If Yan Yan persuades him again, it will be insulting to Mr.'s name. I don't know what else you can say?"

Yang Fu looked at Wei Yan and said in a sobbing voice: "My lord is in the east, don't let me face west to die, I hope the general will do it!"

"Buried in the east of the city after death!" Wei Yan said.

"Thank you General!"

Yang Fu was tied with ropes, and under the pressure of the Han soldiers, he strode towards the east of the city.

The strong wind howled, and the flags of the Han army fluttered. Wei Yan looked at Yang Fu's back and said emotionally, "Yang Yishan is really a righteous man in Lianglong. It's a pity that the internal thieves are causing trouble. Otherwise, it would be so difficult for me, a big man, to seize the Golden City!"

After a pause, Wei Yan ordered the left and right, and said, "Send Yang Yishan's coffin back to Ji County, Tianshui, and let him be buried in his homeland."

"promise!"

Not long after, Cao Youyi, the guard of Yuzhong who was not far away, heard the news, and led his people out of the city to ask Gao Xiang to surrender, and Jincheng County in Liangzhou was completely pacified.

"Han Ji Erwu Wei Mahuang Biography": "In the ninth year of Jianxing, Zhuge Liang sent an envoy to attack Jincheng. Wei general Zhang Ye bound Wei Liangzhou governor Yang Fu to surrender. In Jixian County, Jincheng was conquered, the meritorious Cao Youyi asked Yuzhong to surrender, Gao Xiang ordered it, and the right side of the river was safe!"
