Three Kingdoms: From Yinlin to Great Wei Xiongzhu

Chapter 776 At the end of the day, the prime minister's final journey!
——"Woooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo..."

As the soldiers of Central Shu raised their horns again, the sound of the horns was majestic and sad.

Zhuge Liang stopped Liu Chan's words, and he stroked tremblingly with his already old and thin hands, and Liu Chan held his plump, white and tender hands.

He paused for a moment, then squeezed Liu Chan's hand to comfort him, and then let go.

He started the last earnest entrustment.

"Your Majesty, what we are doing is to inherit the late emperor's behest to 'rejuvenate the great righteousness of the Han Dynasty' and complete the unfinished great cause of the previous emperor... and this is also the inheritance of our souls, because we are the Han who rule the world with filial piety! Keep doing it, Why do we have to do it even in a desperate situation? Because we are the weakest and we don't have time."

"The concern of a big country is to win and be exhausted. The concern of a small country is to make meritorious deeds to survive. So many people stationed at Peishui Pass to resist the invasion of the strong Wei. Why? They, like me, follow the late emperor and want to repay the favor Your Majesty."

"Before we leave, I have a few heartfelt words to tell your majesty. First, I hope that your majesty will have an open and enlightened attitude, so that the kindness of the late emperor will continue to flow on this land! The morale of such a person with lofty ideals, The people's hearts are still there, and the second is that the owner should not speak inappropriately, so that loyal ministers and counselors cannot be loyal...to chill their hearts!"

"After talking about the method, Your Majesty may be worried. We are so weak and Wei is so strong? Can we do it? Don't be afraid, people in the world don't suffer from shortage but from inequality. , Respect the law, and govern Shu according to the law. It is the same regardless of the middle palace or the prime minister's mansion. One thing, that is to employ people, to make up for one's own "nothing" with other people's "yes", that is His Majesty's "yes", there are so many people who followed the late emperor and repaid His Majesty, treating them equally, that's enough! Specific In politics, Your Majesty can consult Jiang Wan and Fei Yi, and in military affairs, you can consult Zilong and others."

——"If the Shu Han always regards 'governing the country according to the law' as its strategic guideline, then His Majesty should follow the principle of 'being close to the virtuous and far away from the sycophant'. There are so many loyal people, if your Majesty can be close to the virtuous and far away from the sycophant, we are very happy Hopefully, victory will come sooner or later!"

Speaking of this... Zhuge Liang paused, his figure was a little stooped.

During the speech, Liu Chan also heard him coughing a few times.

With Xiaoxiao's support, Zhuge Liang continued to finish his unspoken words, but tears glistened in his eyes.

"Compared to emperors and generals, I was originally just an ordinary person. In this troubled world, I can save my life. If the world is full of princes who only care about immediate interests, I will never go out of the mountain...no one Unexpectedly, there is still such a person in this troubled world, a "special" person who holds "righteousness" in his heart, a middle-aged man who has experienced hardships but "does not measure his morals", and a person who says he is "rampant and embarrassed" But the Ming Lord who is full of imagination and vision of "Zhiyou Weiji"..."

"He has been courteous to the virtuous corporal several times, and his sincerity has hit me, so I am willing to do his best for him. Time flies, and the "overturn" of Dangyanglian and Jiangdong's "Chibi Defeat" is far away, and I I have known the late emperor for so many years, and when he died, he entrusted me with a new round of overthrow and danger, so what can I do? I am just a cautious person."

"From the day I took over, I have been trembling every day and every night. I am afraid that if I do not do well, if it is really overturned, how can I be worthy of the late emperor? Why have I been involved in everything in Sichuan in the past few years? I can't do it well...I'm afraid I'll let him down. Less than a year after the fall of the first emperor, I lost Jianmen Pass and Jiameng Pass, and now I retreat to Peishui Pass. Cao Yu once, which shows that Cao Yu will be careless and lose! Your Majesty, our goal has never been to expand the territory, but to "destroy Wei and Zhan Yu", to rejuvenate the Han Dynasty, and to return to Luoyang. This goal is not The desire and selfishness of the minister alone is the belief of the soldiers of the three armies that "the Han and the thief are not independent, and the king's career is not partial to peace", and it is the belief that the late emperor bestowed on all of us!"

"The minister is the prime minister, the prime minister is 'inherited', the inheritance is also, the prime minister is 'assistant', and the assistant...The duty of the minister is to inherit the will of the late emperor and assist His Majesty...The duties of the ministers such as Fei Yi and Dong Yun are Admit loyal words, do business, if they do not do well or do not act, they will be punished, and their negligence will be punished, and they will be announced; As for your Majesty's responsibility, just delegate power. Entrusting this matter to the minister is the greatest kindness His Majesty can do to the minister. This responsibility is the minister's happiness! If you can't do it well, ahem... Your Majesty will not do it badly, because Your Majesty is the late Emperor's son, no matter what your Majesty does, I will be your servant, and die afterward! Cough cough cough..."

The continuous cough sounded again.

Zhuge Liang seemed to have a premonition in his heart, he was uneasy, he had to give all instructions before this expedition.

"Father, I..." Liu Chan said softly.

Zhuge Liang didn't wait for his follow-up words, bowed back a few steps, then turned sideways, and walked down the steps slowly against the sunlight.

His posture seemed to be a little stooped, and his cough became much more intense.

With the support of Xiaoxiao, he boarded the car again.

Taking the feather fan from Xiaoxiao, he looked back at the Empress at the city gate in the spring breeze.

Of course, there is the Prime Minister's Mansion a few thousand steps behind the Empress. Zhuge Liang wanted to go back to see his wife, but... he didn't have time.

"Sorry, Yueying..."

Muttering to himself... Zhuge Liang entered the carriage.

The big flag of "Recovering the Central Plains" was raised in the wind, and the color of the flag was no longer bright, but a corner of the flag was still curled up in the wind, gently brushing Zhuge Liang's already gray temples.

He raised his hand to touch the big flag waving in the wind, suddenly he seemed to be much younger, his old and heavy thoughts were blown, and the aspirations of his youth stirred in his chest again.

He smiled, raised his hand and waved the feather fan, and ordered: "Let's go!"

The entire Shu army also responded enthusiastically in unison: "Yes!"

Amidst the sound of drums and horns, the purge troops in the army marched away, the flags were flipped, and the yellow sand filled the soil. Liu Chan watched the troops go away, only to see Zhuge Liang's figure gradually fade out of sight, and he never looked back from the beginning to the end.

Liu Chan made a look of tearing the frame, and he shouted with great attachment: "Father Xiang, Father Xiang..."

When the neat steps of the army disappeared, Liu Chan's crying stopped abruptly.

"Ah Weng..." He turned his head and walked to Father Gan's side, his eyes also changed from tears to extremely sharp and cold as ice in an instant..."Zhuge Kongming just said...he wants to do his best, and then die !"

what…

Father Gan didn't respond.

Liu Chan's words were even colder, "Then let him die at Peishui Pass, I don't want to see him come back alive."

...

...

Outside the palace in central Shu, countless soldiers stood imposingly.

Zhao Yun, Father Gan, and Jiang Wei stood in the hall, while Liu Chan squinted and sat on the dragon chair of the Lord of Shu Han.

It seemed that after only one morning, he became much more mature and courageous, as if he was no longer the child he was back then!

"You mean that the place where Yinping Road leads to Motian Ridge, there is a steady stream of Wei troops coming? Is that so?"

Liu Chan asked first...

Jiang Wei cupped his hands, "Yes, there are already countless supply stations in Motianling, enough for soldiers to smuggle to Yinping, and more than [-] Wei troops can be gathered there in less than a month!"

"Okay!" Liu Chan grinned, revealing a meaningful smile. "Is there any way to make the Wei army at Motianling gather faster?"

this…

Jiang Wei's eyes were fixed, "Unless we can recruit craftsmen from Chengdu to repair Yinping Road...but..."

Jiang Wei originally wanted to say, this is going to be difficult...

After all, it is a very important time to recruit people to repair the mountain road. This is both emotional and reasonable, and even if it spreads to Zhuge Liang's ears, it will arouse his suspicion and cause unnecessary troubles.

"It's easy to say... I just send people to recruit." Liu Chan was the first time to be the master of the house.

"Your Majesty..." Father Gan said hastily: "At this time, recruiting craftsmen... I'm afraid..."

"Is Ah Weng afraid that Zhuge Liang will know?" When Zhuge Liang's name was mentioned, Liu Chan's eyes flashed the sharpest.

"I was worried about leaking the news, but..."

"Then don't leak the news!" Liu Chan's tone was firm and gloomy, "General Zilong, all the guards at the gates have been replaced by Wei Jun, and the officials in Jingzhou and Dongzhou are all under house arrest...I see how the news leaked! "

Everyone can't imagine.

That Liu Chan who always cries, who is terrified of Zhuge Liang, who dare not speak loudly, has become so sharp at this very moment, is he still a child?

The previous...was pretending to be crazy?

Or... or because of something else?
"Your Majesty...I'm afraid it's...difficult to put officials under house arrest." Zhao Yun questioned again..."Once they go to arrest them separately, it's inevitable that someone will get the news in advance and inform each other...so it's actually..."

"Oh..." Liu Chan sighed meaningfully, and squinted his eyes: "Then there is no other way? The way to catch them all!"

"Yes!" Jiang Wei thought of something, he quickly said: "Your Majesty is the Son of Heaven, if all the officials in Chengdu are summoned to attend the court, then the court will be the best time to catch them all!"

Uh.

A little bolder.

Both Zhao Yun and Father Gan broke out in a cold sweat.

Only Liu Chan, he was overjoyed, "Okay, that's a good idea!"

Father Gan opened his mouth again: "Also, after the death of Eunuch Huang, the local clans in Yizhou shared a common hatred... It seems that we can also... We can talk about it!"

Liu Chan said with a smile: "I will talk about it myself!"

Speaking of here…

Liu Chan seemed to think of something suddenly, he lowered his voice, and asked with a look of great concern: "How is Sister Zhen?"

Uh…

Father Gan, Zhao Yun, and Jiang Wei were startled.

this kid...

Is there really a legacy of Wei Wu?As expected of... the offspring of the Supreme Emperor Cao Cao!
...

...

Sima Yi quietly watched the fish flying freely in the lake.

Zhang Chunhua rushed over and asked anxiously, "Why?"

"What is the lady asking?"

"When there was no Zhuge Liang in Peishuiguan, my husband launched four sieges in three days. The morale of the Shu army was low, and the city almost collapsed...Why did my husband stop fighting when Zhuge Liang returned?"

Zhang Chunhua couldn't understand Sima Yi more and more.

Obviously...Under the current offensive, the Shu army will not be able to defend for a few days.

"Ha ha…"

Sima Yi smiled, and he replied calmly: "From the moment Zhuge Liang came back, he has already lost..."

Zhang Chunhua said worriedly, "I thought that Zhuge Liang would be able to let go of this trip. When he comes back... we are afraid that we will not have a peaceful life again. The Shu Han is so weak. What is he trying to do? He can't be like other people." Surrendering to the Great Wei, will you still... the world's slaves and commoners have a piece of well-being?"

Sima Yi smiled lightly: "Perhaps, this is his promise to Liu Bei. This kind of promise... will support him to continue to persevere. If one day, he chooses not to persevere, then... maybe he is not worth it." I respect my teacher so much."

Zhang Chunhua sighed, "Did he never think about his family?"

"Hehe..." Sima Yi laughed again, "As long as he thinks about his family more, he will know that his wife is now in our Great Wei. Such a person... do you think he is respectable? Or Sad?"

"It's sad!" Zhang Chunhua blurted out without hesitation, "If you can't take care of your family, how can you take care of the world?"

...

...

Fuling County, Bazhinanbi, enter from the south of Zhinan, and go back to Fushui!

——"Huayang Guozhi·Ba Zhi"

Fushui is directly on the sky, and the checkpoints are flanked by lofty mountains and slopes, where the wind blows wheat seedlings and green grass... This will be the decisive battle between Wei and Shu.

In the camp of the Shu army, Zhuge Liang turned his back to the gate of the camp, and his thin figure was cast on the hanging map.

Yang Yi entered with a decoction in his hands, with a worried expression on his face, "Prime Minister, the seven generals secretly surrendered, and more than [-] soldiers surrendered to Wei. Although it is urgent, the prime minister's health is very important, so don't hurt too much."

While speaking, Yang Yi was already choked up...

Zhuge Liang took the decoction and looked at him helplessly.

How could Zhuge Liang not know that the current situation is that the hearts of the people are scattered, and the team is not easy to lead.

Immediately, he took a sip of the good medicine, patted Yang Yi on the back and said: "Chuan Zhong will come to the big tent to discuss military affairs!"

Yang Yi took it and didn't finish the soup, hesitated for a moment and said "Yes"!
but for a moment...

In the big tent, Zhuge Liang's face lost the sorrow just now, and he regained his former composure. He sat in the tent, with the feather fan lightly waving, and the generals sat down in two shifts.

He opened his mouth and said: "Liang inherited the kindness of the first emperor, played a game with the Lord Wei, and conquered the Central Plains... Today there are only more than [-] soldiers left...cough..."

Suddenly Zhuge Liang coughed.

Wei Yan simply took Zhuge Liang's words and said for him: "Now our army is fighting in Fushui, pouring the power of the whole country, and we are bound to win in one battle and conquer the lost ground!"

Wei Yan was so presumptuous... There were expressions of astonishment on everyone's faces.

Yang Yi said restrainedly: "General Wei, I will wait for the prime minister to order..."

Wei Yan proudly glanced sideways at Yang Yi, "What's the use of the prime minister dispatching him? It's not been half a year, and he has already retreated to Fushui Pass. If he had listened to me and fought out from Motianling, the battle would have been won." !"

Speaking of here…

Someone around pulled Wei Yan's armor, signaling him not to say that.

But Wei Yan became more and more presumptuous, "The morale of the three armies is low and exhausted after a series of battles. This is all because... the prime minister is too cautious. He doesn't take risks and seeks safety... Hehe, confronting the great Wei emperor Cao Yu? Just fight one One day, it is impossible to be safe for one day, I am afraid that the prime minister has not figured out the situation and the situation now?"
