Wu Yi defected, Zhang Ren's army was wiped out, and Mianzhu City fell into Hua Yu's hands.

When the news reached Chengdu, Liu Zhang, who didn't even warm his butt, immediately turned pale with fright.

Hua Yu broke through the city too fast, one after another, without giving Liu Zhang any time to breathe.

Zhang Su remonstrated with Liu Zhang and beheaded all Wu Yi's family members.

But Zhang Song disagreed, saying: "Your Majesty, the general situation of Yizhou is over, and the fate of Yizhou has been decided."

"Wu Yi's defection must be related to his sister Wu."

"This time, Wu Yi has made great achievements, and he will definitely gain power in front of Hua Yu."

"If the Lord of Fu kills Wu Yi's family, once the city of Chengdu is destroyed and Yizhou is lost, how can Hua Ziyi let the Lord's family go?"

"This..." Liu Zhang is a person who is afraid of death. Hearing what Zhang Song said, his anger towards Wu Yi was instantly extinguished.

That's right, if I kill Wu Yi's family, how can I survive once Hua Yu breaks through Chengdu?
Zhang Su said angrily: "Your Majesty, please cut Zhang Song to stabilize the army."

Zhang Song was also angry: "Okay, kill me Zhang Song today, and the family of the Fujun will bury me with Zhang Song tomorrow."

"If the Lord of the Mansion kills Wu Yi's family, Zhang Su will be safe and sound on the day the city is destroyed, but the Lord of the Mansion will definitely die, and his family will be buried with Wu Yi's family."

"Zhang Su, are you helping the Fujun, or are you harming the Fujun?"

"You..." When it comes to eloquence, Zhang Su is far inferior to Zhang Song. He was speechless immediately, and he just pointed at Zhang Song angrily, "How could the Zhang family produce a traitor like you?"

Zhang Song sneered: "I am living for the Fujun, but you want to push the Fujun to death. Who is the traitor in Yizhou?"

"Fujun is so clear in his heart, how can he follow your words and cut off his own way out, ruining the lives of the whole family?"

"You...you...you..." Zhang Su was so angry that he trembled all over. He was devoted to Liu Zhang and Yizhou, but in the end he was called a traitor by Zhang Song.

In particular, Zhang Su noticed that Liu Zhang was looking at him with suspicion.

Zhang Su hastily explained: "Your Majesty has learned from you, I am absolutely loyal to your Majesty's heart, and it is actually for the preservation of Yizhou."

Before Liu Zhang could open his mouth, Zhang Song asked calmly, "But I don't know, does elder brother have a way to preserve Yizhou?"

"If you kill me, Zhang Song, and kill Wu Yi's entire clan, Hua Yu can retreat and Yizhou can be preserved, I, Zhang Song, are willing to give this head."

"I'm afraid that not only will Hua Ziyi not retreat, but he will even lose the lives of the Fujun's family."

"If you are loyal, I am afraid that all the civil and military personnel in Yizhou are traitors."

Sure enough, Liu Zhang was timid and afraid of getting into trouble, so he immediately believed Zhang Song's words and swung his sleeves: "Don't mention this matter again. Ziyuan's family members must not be moved, and we need to send troops to protect them."

Although Zhang Su and Zhang Song are blood brothers, Zhang Su is the eldest son but a concubine, while Zhang Song is the second son but a concubine.

Therefore, the situation of the two brothers is somewhat similar to that of Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu.

Zhang Song should be the head of the Zhang family, but Zhang Su was naturally unconvinced.

Therefore, in history, Zhang Su "killed relatives with righteousness" and exposed Zhang Song's communication with Liu Bei, which caused Zhang Song to be killed, and the head of the Zhang family could only be picked up by him, Zhang Su.

Liu Zhang turned to Zhang Song and asked, "Mianzhu has been lost, and Zhang Ren's entire army has been wiped out. I wonder if Ziqiao has a good strategy?"

Zhang Song sighed slightly: "Qi Fujun, in the current situation, there are only two ways to go."

"First, stick to Chengdu and order Yan Yan of Bajun, Deng Xian of Yinping and Lengbao of Fuling to be transferred back to Chengdu to help Chengdu."

"However, there are two risks in doing so."

"First of all, there are only [-] soldiers and horses in the city of Chengdu, and their morale is not high. The city is lacking in repairs, and the equipment for defending the city is also insufficient."

"If Hua Ziyi besieges Chengdu from all sides, I'm afraid that what happened in Anyang City in Hanzhong County will happen again."

"Secondly, the three groups of soldiers and horses returning to aid are likely to be surrounded by Hua Yu and defeated one by one."

"This..." Hearing what Zhang Song said made sense, Liu Zhang became even more frightened, and hurriedly asked again, "Zi Qiao, what is the second way?"

"The second way." Zhang Song turned to look at Liu Zhang, and sighed slightly, "I dare not say that, or my brother will definitely say that I am a traitor."

"You..." Zhang Su was furious, staring at Zhang Song, too angry to speak.

Liu Zhang seemed to understand that the second way Zhang Song said was to surrender.

Zhang Su sneered, "Zhang Hui's death was caused by Hua Yu, but Zhang Lu believed that it was the Fujun."

"Hua Yu must agree to Zhang Lu, take the life of the Fujun, and avenge his younger brother."

"If you persuade the lord to surrender, what else can you do if you don't harm the lord?"

Zhang Song said indifferently: "The Fujun's surrender of Yizhou will not only reduce Huayu's casualties, but also preserve the strength of Yizhou. This is definitely a great contribution to Hua Ziyi."

"Hua Ziyi's ambition is in the world. If Zhang Hui kills the prince who surrendered, who else will surrender to him in the future?"

"If there is no surrender, only leading the army to fight, the casualties of Hua Ziyi's army can be imagined."

"Furthermore, if the lord agrees, Zhang Song is willing to be an envoy, and he will be able to persuade Hua Yu to accept the lord's request, how about it?"

Zhang Su opened his mouth, wanting to persuade Liu Zhang again, but Huang Quan stopped him and shook his head at him.

Huang Quan sighed slightly, and said in a low voice: "The general situation is gone, the Fujun has made up his mind, and it is useless to persuade him."

Zhang Su glared at Zhang Song bitterly, and had no choice but to give up.

Liu Zhang bowed his head and pondered for a while, then sighed slightly: "Never mind, never mind, since the general situation is over, even if we fight to the death, it will be difficult to preserve Yizhou."

"Instead of causing more casualties to the soldiers and suffering for the common people, it is better to surrender in Kaesong. This can be regarded as the benefit of my state pastor to the people of Yizhou."

"When I was in Chang'an City, I also had a considerable friendship with Champion Hou. Presumably he will also miss the old friendship, and he won't insist on my life, Liu Zhang."

"Zi Qiao, you can go to Mianzhu for me and meet the champion."

Zhang Song was secretly happy in his heart, but he didn't show it, and asked: "Thank you, Mr. Fu, Zhang Song will not disgrace the mission."

Liu Zhang waved his hand weakly: "Go, prepare a few cars of rich gifts, and then choose... go."

Originally, Liu Zhang wanted to say, choose a few more beauties.

But when he thought about it, he fled from Mianzhu to Chengdu in such a hurry that he left all the beauties in Mianzhu.

"Here, Mr. Fu." Zhang Song responded, bowed to Liu Zhang, turned and left.

After Zhang Song left, Zhang Su organized his words and was about to speak when Liu Zhang waved his hand and sighed, "You all go down too, I just want to be alone."

"..." Zhang Su was speechless for a while, still not convinced, and was about to speak, but was pulled back by Huang Quan, bowed to Liu Zhang, and left the meeting hall.

Liu Zhang stared blankly, sighed slightly, and muttered to himself: "In the end, Gu was still defeated by Hua Ziyi's hands. It's fate."
