Chapter 243 Turning against each other

Li Yi was startled when he saw the city gate opened easily. Although he felt something was strange, the people had already rushed in. He was also furious and believed in his merit, so he also entered the city.

Even if you don't dare to argue with Zhang Fei, you should at least ask Fazheng for an explanation. I'm going to lead my troops to kill the enemy, but you break camp and enter the city first, let alone send anyone to respond. What's the point of this?

It was almost three o'clock at this time, and the angry people entered the city and took advantage of the chaos to loot everywhere. However, the city had just been robbed by the rebels, and it was in a mess. The people were so angry that they set fire to it, smashed it, and destroyed the houses.

This was also their habit. After winning a battle, they would loot and leave. Pang Xi never restrained himself from this. Anyway, what he was grabbing was Zhang Lu's territory. The more complete the destruction, the less Zhang Lu had the resources to send troops.

Although a banquet had been set up in the government office, no one touched chopsticks. Zhang Feizheng, Fazheng, Meng Da and others were waiting for news. Sure enough, the defenders came to report soon, and Li Yi forced his way through the city gate and plundered.

Zhang Fei jumped up and shouted angrily: "Li Yi, how dare you seize my city and send troops!"

Gan Ning, Wang Ping, and Meng Da were all wearing armor. They immediately followed Zhang Fei out of the government office, each led an army and rushed towards the west gate.

Pang Tong smiled and said, "Just as Xiaozhi expected, this Li Yi really can't keep his temper."

Fazheng smiled lightly and said: "Back then, Zhao Wei rebelled and was killed by his generals Pang Le and Li Yi. They killed Wei and made meritorious deeds, so they were arrogant and proud of their achievements. When Liu Zhang learned that Pang Xi had the heart to be independent, he killed these two men.

Sent to Brazil and ordered to help Pang Xi

For Zhang Lu, he actually wanted to make him reap the benefits during the fight. Unfortunately, Pang Xi was old and had his own means to win over the two men, but instead they worked together. Over the years, he had made a lot of profits from fighting with Zhang Lu, but in fact he had become his own

One side.”

Pang Tong said: "If these people stay, they will be a big trouble. Since Liu Zhang intends to get rid of them, he will fulfill his painstaking efforts."

Fazheng smiled and said: "Liu Jiyu did not manage the prefectures and counties well. The people of Yizhou longed for the Ming Dynasty, and they also fulfilled him!"

When there was great chaos in Guanzhong, Fazheng and his friend Meng Da fled to Yizhou to escape the chaos. Although they were attached to Liu Zhang, they were not reused. They were neither Yizhou nobles nor Dongzhou soldiers. They were caught in the middle and were in a difficult situation. If Zhang Song hadn't helped them, they would have been in trouble.

I'm afraid it will be difficult to establish a foothold in Yizhou.

The two of them often discussed the world's heroes in private. This time Zhang Song invited Liu Qi to come to Shu. Fa Zheng was naturally unlucky, so he secretly added fuel to the flames, hoping to meet his master soon.

Li Yi was also from a wealthy family in Yizhou. He had committed regicide and was very arrogant when he was in Chengdu. Once at a banquet, he scolded these foreign guests for eating corpses, disrupting Yizhou, and threatened to drive everyone out of Shu!

Although he didn't name him by name, Fazheng always kept it in his mind. This plan was not only to help Zhang Fei's troops enter Brazil, but also to avenge himself.

There is a proverb in Guanzhong that goes well: If a man is crazy, it is a good thing, but if a dog is crazy, he will get bricks.

Li Yijiao humiliated others wildly, how could he not be made to pay the price?

At this time, Li Yizheng was walking on the street, and suddenly his eyelids twitched violently. It was similar to when he killed Zhao Wei, and he felt frightened.

Just when I was feeling uneasy, suddenly there was the sound of armor and the sound of torches in front of me. A general led his troops and shouted with a voice like thunder: "Who is bold enough to attack my city?"

Li Yi was shaken by the roar. He looked up and saw that he was as majestic as a god, holding a snake spear. He expected that it was Zhang Fei, so he quickly clasped his fists and said: "General Zhang, I am General Li Yi under the command of Prefect Pang..."

Zhang Fei shouted angrily: "It turns out that it was Pang Yi who ordered you and others to attack the city. How can this be unreasonable? Kill!"

Li Yi was shocked and hurriedly waved his hands and said: "General Zhang, I am not attacking the city, I want to see the law——"

While they were still arguing vigorously, Zhang Fei flew up to him, raised his snake spear and knocked Li Yi off his horse. The soldiers behind him turned pale in fright and dispersed in a flurry.

Zhang Fei shouted: "We have orders from the army. Anyone who dares to break into private houses, disturb the people and rob them will be killed without mercy!"

The Jingzhou army immediately divided into several teams and rushed to the south gate, killing all the Brazilian soldiers and horses running in the street. Only a few people escaped from the city.

After completely stabilizing the public order in the city, Zhang Fei ordered the entire army to hold a banquet to celebrate the victory, which would not rest until dawn.

The men and horses rested for three days and the weather cleared up. Zhang Fei used Li Yi's attack on Hanchang as an excuse to vent his anger on Pang Xi and went to Langzhong to settle accounts and Fa Zheng. Wang Ping stayed behind in Hanchang, waiting to meet up with Liu Qi.



In Dianjiang City, Yan Yan was aware of the critical situation in Shu after Zhang Fei led his troops. He stepped up patrols every day and sent people to closely monitor the movements of Jingzhou soldiers to prevent them from turning back and attacking the city.

Jufu also sighed for this stubborn master. Now that Yizhou's people are unstable, and the local civil and military forces are suppressed and alienated, they are all waiting and watching. Why bother so much for a weak master?

That evening, after drinking a few glasses of wine, I was brave enough to go and persuade Yan Yan. Then I arrived at the house. Suddenly, a scout came to report that a group of people had come from the direction of Jiangzhou and passed by outside the city.

Yan Yan did not dare to be careless and went to the city to observe in person. As the sun was setting, he saw carriages and horses stretching for three or four miles, with flags fluttering and meandering.

Jufu looked at it for a while and said: "There are many people, horses and vehicles here, as well as oxen, mules, and people carrying them. It must be a grain transport team."

Yan Yan stroked his beard and said with a sneer: "Going west from Bashui, the road is rugged and difficult to navigate. In addition, the weather is uncertain. Before this batch of grain and grass reaches Langzhong, I am afraid it will be exhausted or moldy and rotten. Zhang Fei will definitely be defeated!"

Jufu sighed. Bajun was originally a vast and sparsely populated area. In order to facilitate management, the land of Sanba was separated. From Jiangzhou to the north into Daba Mountain, the road is indeed tortuous. The Ba people relied on the dangerous mountains and favorable geographical location to dare to fight with them.

Liu Zhang resisted.

The carriages and horses went to camp and rest on the shore of Bashui. The sun was setting and it was getting late. Yan Yan was about to return to the city when suddenly the defenders shouted: "General, look!"

Yan Yan looked back and saw fire rising into the sky in the direction of the river bank. Blown by the night wind, it spread along the river bank. In an instant, several large vehicles were on fire. Soldiers shouted and ran around, busy putting out the fire.

"Hahaha, God is really helping me!" Yan Yan stroked his beard and laughed and said: "This batch of grain and grass is burned, I want to see how Zhang Fei steals Langzhong."

"Not good!" Jufu's face changed slightly and he reminded: "Master, I'm afraid this is Zhang Fei's plan."

"Huh?" Yan Yan was startled, frowned and said, "Zhang Fei is using his plan, why would he burn his own food and grass?"

Ju Fu said urgently: "Master had a conflict with Zhang Fei earlier. At this time, the grain and grass were burned outside Dianjiang City. If Zhang Fei relies on us and raises troops, the two Liu will turn against each other and will definitely take advantage of the situation and attack Yizhou."

"This..." Yan Yan suddenly woke up and paused: "What a Zhang Heizi actually used such a trick, what should I do?"

Ju Fuyan said: "For the current plan, we have to send troops out of the city to help them put out the fire. Even if Zhang Fei comes, we will have an answer."

Although Yan Yan defended Dianjiang, he did not want to cause a war because of him. Seeing the fire outside the city, he hurriedly led his troops out of the city and went to the river with Jufu to put out the fire.

As soon as the men and horses reached the shore, they were stopped by a general who shouted: "Who is so bold as to come and steal my food and grass?"

Ju Fu hurriedly stepped forward to greet him and said, "We are the defenders of Dianjiang. We saw the grain truck on fire and came here to help put out the fire."

The man laughed angrily and said: "What an old thief, Yan Yan. He first sent people to set fire, and then pretended to put out the fire. Sooner or later we will have to settle this debt."

Yan Yan said angrily: "Who are you? You dare to slander me? Do you have any evidence?"
