The Super Summoning System of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 1198 Dealing with Foolish and Loyal Ministers
As soon as Jiang Wei heard that they were the scouts sent by Chang Yuchun, he quickly put them into the city, brought the leader of the scouts to meet Liu Bian, and reported the current situation of Chang Yuchun's army.

Knowing that the person who came was a scout sent by Chang Yuchun, Liu Bian asked, "How is the situation of Chang Yuchun's army now? How many casualties are there?"

The scout clasped his hands and said: "After Chang Dudu took Yinping in a surprise attack, he pursued Gao Yu all the way to Motianling. Soon, two young generals Yang Jizhou and Qin Huaiyu came, and Gao Jiong surrendered. Later, Chang Dudu led the army northward to Hanzhong, That Lu Guang is..."

After some explanations from the scouts, Liu Bian finally understood how to get the land of Sichuan and Shu.

There are many coincidences in this, first of all, Jin Yiwei met Jiang Song and Qin Huaiyu's master and apprentice, and got their help. Without them, even Qin Chuan would not be able to get out, let alone control Chengdu.

There is also Yang Jizhou, who has repeatedly encountered crises. Thanks to the help of Ma Zhong, Meng Gong and others, he was able to turn the crisis into safety. Otherwise, he would have been poisoned to death with a glass of poisoned wine, let alone win Jiange. Resist Gao Xianzhi, Lu Guang.

It's really stupid people have stupid blessings.

Fortunately, all the dangers encountered have been resolved. Now that the army has entered Hanzhong, and Jiamengguan Jiange is in the hands of the Han army, Yizhou is already within easy reach.

After learning the story, Liu Bian said to the scouts: "Go back quickly and tell Chang Yuchun that you don't have to come to Yangping Pass. I will go to Nanzheng tomorrow, and then go east to deal with Zhang Ren's troops. You let him do it." Get ready!"

"No, I'll go back to Nanzheng now, little one." The scout bowed his hands and retreated.

The next day, Liu Bian led the army to Nanzheng, where he joined Chang Yuchun's troops, and then the army continued eastward to Shangyong.

The land of Shangyong was guarded by [-] soldiers and horses led by Zhang Ren, while Zhang Liao of Nanyang sent [-] troops to attack Shangyong.

Facing Zhang Liao's attack, Zhang Ren had no choice but to defend the city, keeping the deep trenches and high forts out.

As early as more than a month ago, Zhang Ren had received Liu Zhang's order to surrender, but Zhang Ren felt that Liu Zhang's surrender was not his intention, so he did not surrender.Instead, they chose to wait for Sima Yi or Gao Jiong to send troops to solve the rebellion in Chengdu and continue to support Liu Zhang.

Under the city of Shangyong, more than [-] troops from the two prefectures of Yongliang and Liangzhou attacked, and finally arrived.

After merging Zhang Liao's army, the number of troops exceeded 15. The 15 army will go to Yongcheng, and the surrounding area will be impenetrable.

The military flag is unfurled, covering the sky and the sun, and Shangyong is the strongest city in the world, but at this moment, it seems to be just a piece of fat in the mouth of a huge monster, which can be swallowed with just one bite.

Chang Yuchun rode out, looked at the top of the city and shouted: "Zhang Ren, your lord Liu Zhang has already surrendered to His Majesty, and now Sima Yi has been defeated. If you don't surrender, when will you wait? Are you going to drag the people in the city with you?" suffer together?"

Zhang Ren looked at the tens of thousands of Han troops below the city, his face was full of regret, and he shouted to the left and right generals: "Brothers, I can't get rid of Sima Yi, Yang Su and other traitors for the master, and I can't drive out the invading enemies for the master. What is the face of surrender today? I only want to die, and after I die, it will not be too late for you to open the door and surrender!"

After Zhang Ren finished speaking, he wiped the saber in his hand towards his neck.

"General..."

The surrounding generals naturally pulled Zhang Ren to stop him.

Seeing this situation, Chang Yuchun in the city couldn't help shaking his head and laughing, and then shouted: "Your Majesty has spoken beforehand, Zhang Ren must be reused, and now Zhang Ren is going to kill himself, you all control me now, and His Majesty will reward you with great rewards."

This was indeed explained by Liu Bian. Zhang Ren's ability is not bad, and Liu Bian intends to use it.And Liu Bian guessed early on that Zhang Ren might choose to commit suicide, so he told Chang Yuchun in advance.

When all the generals on the top of the city heard this, they stepped forward to hug Zhang Ren one after another, and took the weapon from his hand.

Anyway, Liu Bian wanted to be the first, and they wanted to reuse Zhang Ren, and they were reluctant to let Zhang Ren die. Anyway, Zhang Ren wanted to surrender, so they swarmed up to control Zhang Ren, and then opened the door to surrender.

The army then took control of Shangyong, and soldiers and horses entered the city. Shangyong's generals escorted Zhang Ren to see Liu Bian.

Looking at the generals in the hall, the mighty and extraordinary Liu Bian on the first seat, Zhang Ren didn't show the slightest fear, nor did he kneel down, and said calmly: "I don't want to surrender, please give me death!"

Seeing Zhang Ren's decisiveness, Liu Bian couldn't help frowning: "Liu Zhang has surrendered, you want to be loyal to him?"

Zhang Ren Dayi said awe-inspiringly: "As a minister, I can't eliminate traitors for my lord internally, and can't defend against foreign enemies externally. How can I live in this world?"

Liu Bian was furious when he heard the words, and shouted: "Is Liu Zhang proclaimed emperor? Or is the man dead? When did you become Liu Zhang's subject? Your official position is in Yizhou, which is my official position. You are taking the man's people. Tax income salary.

I like loyal people, but I hate foolish and loyal people. You can die if you want. Loyal ministers don’t serve two masters, right? When I arrived in Chengdu, I convicted Liu Zhang of treason and killed you and him. "

"Didn't you say that as long as the lord surrenders, he will be sealed as a marquis and let him live in peace? How can you go back on your word!" Zhang Ren was shocked when he heard this.

Liu Bian couldn't help but sneered and said, "Aren't you a loyal minister? You are obviously a courtier of a big man, an official of a big man. Since you claim to be a courtier of Liu Zhang, doesn't that mean he has the intention of treason? Why should I tolerate a treasoner!"

"You..." Zhang Ren was at a loss for words, not knowing how to answer.

It's just that Liu Bian said that it was against this point, and he had no choice but to surrender, otherwise Liu Zhang would be killed.

Zhang Ren knelt down on the ground and said: "The guilty minister Zhang Ren is willing to surrender, and please appease your majesty!"

Only then did Liu Bian nodded in satisfaction, and said, "It's good to surrender, Zhang Ren accepts the seal!"

"Zhang Renzai!"

Liu Bian looked at Zhang Ren and said, "I will make you the prefect of Hanzhong, but a general, temporarily in charge of Hanzhong's military administration, and in charge of Hanzhong's troops!"

"This..." Zhang Ren was a little frightened by Liu Bian's award. Liu Bian said he wanted to reuse him, but he didn't expect it to be so important.Hanzhong is an important town, and it is also an important town for Liu Bian's army to return to the north. Now Guanzhong is empty, and there are tens of thousands of soldiers surrendered in Hanzhong. How dare Liu Bian give up Hanzhong and hand him a surrendered general?Or someone who was forced to surrender?

When the surrounding generals heard that Liu Bian entrusted Zhang Ren with such a heavy responsibility, they all stepped forward one after another, wanting to stop him.

Zhang Ren was self-aware, and without waiting for the generals to open his mouth, he said, "Zhang Ren dare not accept such a heavy responsibility!"

Liu Bian asked with a smile, "Why don't you dare?"

Zhang Ren cupped his hands and said, "I'm not capable enough, I dare not accept it!"

Seeing that Zhang Ren was evading it because of his lack of ability, Liu Bian did not insist. He had no intention of letting Zhang Ren alone guard Hanzhong, and he deliberately said this just to win Zhang Ren over.

Liu Bian nodded and said, "Since that's the case, I won't force you, Jiang Wei, you stay in Hanzhong, Zhang Ren you still serve as the prefect of Hanzhong, but the general, help Jiang Wei!"
