Reborn in the Three Kingdoms, I stole Liu Bei's uncle
Chapter 545: Trapped in Chengdu
After Liu Yu left, Jia Xu stood in the tent with a complicated look in his eyes.
His hands were shaking slightly, but he did not put them over the brazier to warm them.
After a moment's silence, he called his personal guard and asked him to remove the brazier.
The personal guard was a little confused. In his impression, the brazier had never left Jia Xu's tent since entering Hanzhong.
The mountain wind has been quite strong these days and the weather has been a bit cold. She didn't know why Jia Xu had changed his temper and wanted to remove the brazier.
The guard wanted to ask more questions, but when he saw his serious expression, he swallowed the words that were about to come out of his mouth.
At this time, Jia Xu stood straight and his body was no longer hunched.
He was quite tall and seemed like he could touch the sky with his hands.
He remembered the words Liu Yu left before he left.
His eyes gradually changed from cloudy to clear.
"I can definitely solve this problem, trust me!"
The words are not fancy, but they carry endless power.
Because the person who said this was Uncle Liu.
Jia Xu believed that if there was one person in the world who could create the impossible, that person must be Liu Bei.
He was so stunning, he was like a rainbow hanging in the sky, dazzling and extremely eye-catching.
He went from being a down-and-out relative of the Han royal family to almost wiping out all the warlords and restoring the Han dynasty in just a few years.
Even if you look through all the history books, few people can achieve such a great achievement.
After a long time, Jia Xu regained his senses.
He sighed deeply.
"Feng Xiao, maybe we are really wrong!"
……
……
The news of the breach of Jiange was controlled by Liu Yu and had not yet spread outside Yizhou, but it gradually spread within Yizhou.
After hearing the news, the cities in Yizhou surrendered one after another.
Most of these people were Liu Zhang's former subordinates. After Liu Zhang was defeated by Cao Cao, they temporarily submitted to Cao Cao.
But now that Uncle Liu has broken through Jiange, the door to Yizhou has been opened. How can we still hold out for Cao Cao?
Now, except for a few cities such as Mianzhu and Chengdu guarded by Cao Cao's confidants, the rest have returned to the Han Dynasty.
Liu Yu had already anticipated this and was not surprised at all.
You know, most of these officials come from local powerful families. They are always shrewd and good at judging the situation.
Now that the situation was clear, how could they risk their lives for Cao Cao? That would undoubtedly be like hitting a rock with an egg, seeking their own death.
Faced with those cities that had just surrendered, Liu Yu adopted a relatively mild strategy.
He merely sent envoys to reappoint officials in these places, but did not make too many adjustments to the existing official structure.
In this way, we can not only stabilize people's hearts, but also avoid arousing unnecessary resistance and conflict.
Liu Yu's move quickly won him widespread praise in Yizhou.
After all, for the aristocratic families, the most important thing is whether their own power can be maintained.
As long as the power in their hands is not affected, it doesn’t matter who rules this land and sits on the supreme position.
Liu Yu's approach catered to the interests of these big families just right, thus establishing a good image for himself and gaining him a great reputation.
Liu Yu saw a name on the list of surrenderers.
That is Yu Jin.
The news of the fall of Jiange reached Baidi City, and the soldiers had no intention of fighting anymore. Although Cao Cao, the general guarding Baidi City, still had some fighting spirit, he could not change the fact that his soldiers had dispersed. He was finally defeated under the joint attack of Zhang Fei and Zhou Yu.
When Zhang Fei's Zhangba Snake Spear was placed on Yu Jin's neck, Yu Jin decisively chose to surrender.
The long-term attack made Zhang Fei very irritable. When he broke through Baidi City, he could no longer control the violence in his heart. He led the cavalry and marched towards Chengdu day and night.
When Huang Zhong broke through Mianzhu and was advancing towards Chengdu, Zhang Fei's cavalry had already arrived at the city of Chengdu.
Zhang Fei started with a standard verbal attack.
This attack left the defenders at the city gate speechless.
Chengdu was also a fortified city with high walls, deep moats, and sufficient food and grass. No matter how Zhang Fei insulted him, the city gates were never opened.
Zhang Fei was somewhat helpless. The cavalry behind him were fearless in field battles, but when it came to attacking a city, they were somewhat powerless!
When Liu Yu led his army to the city of Chengdu, Zhang Fei's verbal attacks continued.
Liu Yu stopped him and sent someone to question Cao Cao.
Cao Cao came to the city gate alone, without any attendants by his side.
Seeing this situation, Liu Yu also rode forward alone.
The two were more than ten feet apart, and Liu Yu stopped.
Liu Yu spoke first.
"Meng De, it's been a long time since we last met in Xuzhou. I didn't expect that we would meet again at the gates of Chengdu.
I remember the first time I met Meng De was at Situ Wang's residence. At that time, Meng De was full of passion and wanted to borrow the Seven-Star Sword to assassinate Dong alone.
Although the assassination attempt on Dong failed, I have always admired Meng De for his support for the Han Dynasty. I have looked at all the princes in the world, and only Meng De can be called a hero. "
The past was like smoke, appearing in Cao Cao's mind and then quickly dissipating.
"I'm afraid your uncle is not sincere. Now that Chengdu is under siege, I will soon become a soul under his sword. How can I dare to call myself a hero?"
Liu Yu looked far away and said slowly: "Meng De was brave when he stabbed Dong alone, and he was loyal when he gathered a group of people to escape from Dong. If a man like Meng De is not a hero, who else in this world can be a hero?"
"Yuan Shao of Jizhou and Yuan Shu of Runan have achieved more than me, so how can they not be heroes?"
"Meng De has been friends with the Yuan brothers since he was young, so you must know their personalities.
Yuan Shao appears to be generous but is actually cautious. He is good at making plans but lacks decision-making. He is cautious about his body when doing great things, but forgets his life when he sees small profits. How can such a person be called a hero?
As for Yuan Shu, he had great ambitions but little talent, and was too ambitious to be worthy of mention at all.
Even if they were not defeated by me, these two would have been defeated by you."
The defeats over the past few days have made Cao Cao, who was once so heroic, lose his momentum.
This is not surprising. The so-called self-confidence and momentum are based on the strength of success.
At this time, Cao Cao was not the Emperor Wu of Wei who would ride his horse and whip the horse while standing on the Jieshi Mountain in the east in later generations.
Instead, he was defeated by Cao Mengde who was unable to recover.
"Uncle, I feel guilty for thinking so highly of you. If I could choose again, I would probably be a minor official under your command. Unfortunately, there is no if in this world..."
Liu Yu sincerely advised: "Meng De, you are very knowledgeable, so you can see that the army is besieging Chengdu now. Chengdu is an isolated city, and it will be extremely difficult to turn the situation around.
Meng De might as well open the city gates early to save the soldiers from the suffering of war and unify the Han Dynasty sooner. What do you think, Meng De?"
A hint of sadness flashed across Cao Cao's eyes.
"Uncle Huang is a man of great foresight and insight into the war situation. It is a tragedy for me, Cao Cao, to be born in the same era as you.
To be honest with your uncle, I have been keeping the door closed during this period, just waiting for your uncle to come. Now the city gates are wide open, and your uncle can lead his soldiers in soon.
The emperor's uncle is extremely kind and righteous, so the soldiers and civilians in the city are naturally safe.
As for me, Cao Cao, don't worry, uncle. I will commit suicide immediately to thank the world."
After saying that, Cao Cao drew the long sword from his waist and slashed at his own neck.
