Ma Su took a closer look and saw that it was Liu Feng's deputy general Meng Da.
I saw Meng Da and others looking disgraced and embarrassed!
Ma Su was taken aback and asked quickly,
"General Meng, what happened to you? Where are the King of Chu and others?"
"The Wei army is extremely cunning. They discovered our traces in advance and used fire attacks! His Royal Highness the King of Chu has been buried in the sea of fire..."
Meng Da's face was extremely sad.
When he heard the news that Liu Feng was burned to death in the fire, Ma Di panicked and suddenly felt a little uneasy!
If Liu Feng dies like this, Fa Zheng's plan will be ruined!
He and the defenders at Baishui Pass are doomed now!
"I hope Mr. Youchang will open the door quickly and let us enter the city. Let's make plans later!"
Meng Da said loudly.
"Ah, oh! Someone, open the city gate quickly!"
Ma Su finally came to his senses and quickly ordered someone to open the door!
After the city gate opened, he came to the city gate in person to greet Mengda and his party.
"General Meng, thank you for your hard work..."
Looking at the embarrassed Meng Da, Ma Su couldn't help but sigh.
However, at this moment, Meng Da suddenly pulled out the knife from his waist, took a step forward, and put the knife on Ma Su's neck!
At the same time, the soldiers behind him also drew their weapons and took control of the city gate!
This sudden move shocked Ma Su and the defenders in the city!
Ma Di was stunned for a while, and then he said blankly,
"General Meng, you...what do you mean? 1"
"Mr. Youchang, I'm sorry, I have already taken refuge with His Highness King Qi!"
Meng Da laughed evilly, stretched out his hand and took off the weapons Ma Su carried.
"What? You actually betrayed the big man?"
Ma Su was shocked and couldn't believe his ears.
Meng Da was too lazy to pay attention to Ma Su anymore, and ordered the surrounding soldiers to drive forward the Shu Han soldiers.
Since the highest official, Ma Su, was held hostage by Meng Da, the defenders in the city did not dare to act rashly for a while, so they could only retreat and leave the city gate to Meng Da and his party.
Just after taking control of the city gate, Mengda immediately asked someone to set off a fireworks bomb.
As the burning fireworks rose into the sky, not long after, the rumble of the marching army was heard coming from outside the pass.
Yang Ling led the Wei army and entered Baishui Pass.
Seeing Yang Ling's arrival, Meng Da hurried forward to greet him and saluted respectfully.
"I have met the King of Qi. Fortunately, the last general lived up to his command and captured Baishui Pass!"
"General Meng really did not disappoint me!"
Yang Ling smiled with satisfaction and said,
"General, you have worked hard today. I will definitely stand in front of the Emperor in the future to ask for credit for the general!"
Upon hearing this, Meng Da felt that his bones were a little soft.
"You're welcome, King Qi. This is what a general should do."
Yang Ling encouraged Meng Da for a few words, then looked at Ma Su who was tied up beside him.
"Are you Ma Youchang?"
"Report...report to King Qi, I am none other than Ma Di!"
Ma Su was not as arrogant as Liu Feng, but rather humble.
"It's quite a talent."
After Yang Ling praised him, he pointed at the Shu Han army on guard not far away and said with a smile,
"Now that Cao Wei's army has entered the city, does Mr. Youchang still hope to increase casualties?"
If Meng Da had not tricked the city gate into opening, Ma Su would have been confident that he could withstand the Wei army for a period of time due to the steepness of Baishui Pass.
But now that the Wei army has entered the city, relying on the three thousand soldiers and horses in hand to resist is just a waste of lives!
After a moment of silence, Ma Su said helplessly,
"Everyone surrender!"
Following his order, the Shu Han soldiers looked at me and I looked at you, and finally put down their weapons and collectively surrendered to the Wei army!
After successfully capturing Baishui Pass, Yang Ling also ordered people to open the northern city gate to contact Guo Huai's army.
…
Jiange County.
In the county government hall, Liu Beizheng, Fazheng and others were discussing military affairs.
Shortly after Liu Feng and Ma Di left with their troops, Liu Bei asked Zhuge Liang to lead people to Jiangzhou to resist Pang Tong.
And he himself came to Jiange County with Fazheng, Zhang Fei, Deng Zhi, Chen Shi, Chen Dao, Wu Yi and others.
"In total, today is already the third day since the Wei army arrived. Why hasn't there been any movement from the King of Chu?"
Liu Bei looked at the map with a solemn expression.
Since the Wei army arrived outside Jianmen Pass, the Shu Han spies could no longer leave the pass, and their contact with Liu Feng and Ma Di was also cut off.
"Don't worry, Your Majesty. I'm sure the King of Chu will send good news within these two days."
Fazheng was quite calm, even a little confident.
"Forget it, we can only wait!"
Although he was a little worried, Liu Bei was helpless.
At this moment, a messenger ran in quickly,
"Your Majesty, the Wei army outside the Pass is calling for formation. The leader calls himself Yang Ling and says he wants to see Your Majesty!"
Yang Ling wants to see him?
Liu Bei was stunned for a moment, then stood up.
"Let's go and have a look with me!"
Not far outside Jiange City is the location of Jianmen Pass.
Among the majestic mountains, there is only a narrow path that can only be passed by one person.
The cliffs on both sides are as sharp as swords cutting through the air, extremely steep.
In the center of the mountain pass is a steep and majestic pass, which is the famous Jianmen Pass.
The Shu Han ministers followed Liu Bei and came to the pass.
At this time, the person responsible for guarding Jianmen Pass was Zhang Fei's son Zhang Bao.
Seeing Liu Bei arriving, he quickly saluted and said,
"I have met your Majesty!"
"It is not necessary to be polite to build a country."
Liu Bei smiled and asked,
"I heard that guy Yang Ling called for formation in front of the pass?"
"Yes, I will lead His Majesty to check it out."
Zhang Bao led the Shu Han monarchs and others to the city wall of Jianmen Pass.
Liu Bei took a look.
In the open space not far from the pass, a handsome and dignified man was sitting upright on horseback, looking towards Jianmen Pass.
Who is it if it's not Yang Ling?
"Mr. Ziyi, I haven't seen you for a long time. How are you?"
Liu Bei smiled slightly and greeted Yang Ling.
"Yes, we haven't seen each other for so many years. I didn't expect you, Liu Xuande, to become the emperor."
Yang Ling chuckled, but then changed the subject,
"It's a pity that you wear the crown of a monkey, and you don't look like an emperor when you put on a dragon robe!"
Liu Bei's face froze when he heard this, but he had always been extremely tolerant and did not have an attack. He just said calmly,
"I'm afraid you came here today just to show off your words, right?"
"Liu Xuande, you are making false claims about heaven and proclaiming yourself emperor in Sichuan and Shu without authorization. This is really ridiculous."
"Now I am following the emperor's orders to attack you with a million troops."
"If you know what's going on, surrender quickly and avoid ending up with your head but a different body!"
Yang Ling's words were quite rude.
Before Liu Bei could speak, Zhang Fei on the side opened his eyes angrily.
"Yang Ling, you are such a thief, you are so arrogant! If you dare to humiliate me, the Emperor, again, believe it or not, I will poke 10,000 transparent holes in you?"
Upon hearing this, Yang Ling immediately became happy.
He stared at Zhang Fei, then pretended to be honest,
"Who did I think it was? It turns out to be my dear father-in-law!"
