Chapter 804 (1/2)

The total number of soldiers stationed in Mianzhu Guanzhong was less than 7000, and some of them were subordinates of Mengda. At that time, the Yizhou army was divided into two groups to fight. At this time, more than 8000 Liangzhou troops took advantage of the situation and rushed into the central part of the pass, and the Yizhou army was caught off guard.

Although the Yizhou army in the pass insisted on it, more than 8000 Liangzhou soldiers were like wolves. When they saw Yizhou soldiers, they rushed to fight with teeth gnashing teeth. Both the morale and the number of Yizhou soldiers were far better than those of Yizhou army. After a period of fighting, the Liangzhou army finally controlled the situation and captured most of the Yizhou soldiers.

”Mengda, the last general, has heard of General Zhang's reputation for a long time. It's really lucky to see him today.”

Menda clasped his fist to Zhang jaw, and his expression was quite excited.

Zhang jaw smiles and nods: ”Meng Zhechong abandons the secret, and the general will be rewarded in the future.”

”However, Meng Zhechong still needs to do some work for these Yizhou soldiers, so that they don't make trouble.” Open jaw again way.

”Please rest assured, general Zhang. I am duty bound.”

There are more than 4000 Yizhou Army prisoners in Mianzhu pass. Naturally, they can't be killed at one go. Zhang Xi thinks about it, and it's not appropriate to leave them in Mianzhu pass. In case of seizing the pass, will he and his army not even have a shelter? Therefore, we have to let Menda persuade them that it is best to surrender. If they are not willing to surrender, they can only be locked up for later.

Although Mengda had little prestige in the Yizhou army, some prisoners were willing to surrender. However, half of the Yizhou soldiers still did not care about Mengda's surrender, so they preferred to be imprisoned rather than surrender.

At night, indoors.

”Meng Zhechong, do you think Liu Jiyu will surrender if he leads his troops to Chengdu?”

Zhang jaw glared at Menda and asked.

After hearing the speech, Mengda thought for a moment, and then replied: ”General Zhang, forgive me for speaking frankly. Liu Zhang is a faint and weak man. Naturally, he is at a loss when he learns that the general's heavenly troops have descended. It is not impossible to open the gate of the city. However, don't drive. Huang Quan and Wang Lei are loyal officials and wise men. There are more than ten thousand soldiers and horses in Chengdu City. They will certainly advise Liu Zhang to keep his door closed. ”

Zhang jaw nodded: ”it's OK. Even if Liu Zhang doesn't surrender, as long as our army besieges Chengdu, Zhang Ren of jiangge can't get food and grass, and sooner or later he has to retreat, our army's strategic goal will be achieved.”

”The general is wise.” A compliment from Menda.

”In this case, leave a thousand soldiers to guard the pass. Tomorrow I will go out with Meng Zhechong and kill them under the city of Chengdu as soon as possible.”

Zhang jaw actually looks down on Meng Da, who is a seller and pursues prosperity. However, Zhang jaw is very good at being a man and naturally will not show his disdain on his face. Before that, he opened his jaw to ask him whether he was loyal. However, he was quite organized in his speech, which seemed to be consistent with himself at least at present.

Of course, Menda nodded.

On the second day, Zhang Xi left 1000 Liangzhou soldiers to guard Mianzhu pass and asked them to stay to take care of the wounded soldiers. At the same time, to guard the captured Yizhou army, more than 8000 army horses were lit up (the wounded soldiers who crossed the Yinping trail had entered the pass), and the 3000 Yizhou Army (willing to surrender) under Mengda's command, killed and rushed to Chengdu.

The newly surrendered Yizhou soldiers must stay with us. Staying in Mianzhu pass is equivalent to a time bomb. In case of rebellion, open the cage and release the captured Yizhou soldiers. Although the 1000 Liangzhou soldiers in the pass are brave, they are certainly not the opponents of the 7000 Yizhou troops.

It's nothing to take the 3000 Yizhou troops with you. After all, there are nearly 8000 people under Zhang jaw's command, and even the Yizhou army's rebellion and bombing camp can be controlled.
