Three Kingdoms, I open a tavern in Xudu

The envoys sent by Zhuge Liang traveled thousands of miles around Cao Cao's sphere of influence, and finally came to Yecheng to deliver the letter to Sima Yi.

"Zhuge Liang dares to ask me for a hundred artillery pieces, what a big appetite!"

After reading the letter, Sima Yi snorted heavily.

Of course he could take out one hundred cannons, but giving them to Zhuge Liang would be tantamount to exposing the technology of cannons, because Zhuge Liang would definitely try to imitate them, which is what he was not happy about in the first place.

The second point is that the artillery is heavy, especially the large number of shells. It is a long journey from Yecheng to Yongchang, and Cao Cao is in the middle, so much manpower, material and financial resources will be wasted.

Although Zhuge Liang gave him an idea to send it to Jiaozhou by water, which can effectively bypass Cao Cao, the method is very good, but how expensive is it?

Sima Yi resisted from the bottom of his heart and didn't want to reach this cooperation.

"It is necessary for me to send the artillery, but also for me to pay for it and send it to him. In the end, it is Zhuge Liang who enjoys the benefits."

Sima Yi threw the letter aside in displeasure, and continued: "In the world, there is no such thing as a bargain."

"Your Majesty, I think this matter needs to be considered."

Yang Xiu didn't think so, and said: "If we reject Zhuge Liang, who can help us involve the Cao family? Now because of Zhuge Liang, Chen Yang has to go to Nanzhong and give up the Northern Expedition. As long as Zhuge Liang is here, Chen Yang will We will not go north for the time being, if Zhuge Liang and the others are gone, it will be very difficult for us to deal with Chen Yang."

This is indeed a dilemma, Sima Yi asked: "Do you really want to send the artillery to him?"

Yang Xiu thought about it for a long time, nodded and said: "Although the cost of building a big ship is high, it is not impossible. A hundred artillery pieces are too much. We can give fifty of them, and we will send them all by then. He will not No. If you accept it, if you don’t cooperate with us, you will hide firearms in the artillery and blow them up in one fell swoop, and no one will get it.”

Sima Yi was silent for a long time, and finally clapped his hands and said: "Follow Dezu's method first, Zhuge Liang wants a hundred artillery pieces, this is completely impossible."

Even if only fifty were given, he still felt pain in the flesh.

What's more, Zhuge Liang just asked for it, and at the most he delayed Chen Yang, and he didn't give him any benefit back.

Once Zhuge Liang asked him to borrow grain, but it has not been returned yet, and it is estimated that there is no possibility of returning it.

After thinking so much, Sima Yi suddenly felt that Zhuge Liang's ally was a bit of a trap.

-

In Yongchang city.

When Zhuge Liang got the news that Liu Feng's entire army was wiped out and then captured alive, and even the news that Chen Yang suddenly appeared from the south of the Ugo Kingdom, his entire face darkened, making him very ugly.

They tried every means to set up defenses in the south, central and north, and also strictly guarded the northern part of Ugo country, but they still couldn't guard against the elusive Chen Yang, and they didn't even know where Chen Yang appeared from.

For Zhuge Liang, this was a severe slap in the face.

"Prime Minister, I'm going to save General Liu."

Zhou Cang said loudly.

He and Liu Feng have been with Liu Bei for the longest time, and they are as close to Liu Feng as brothers, and have a very deep relationship.

When he got the news that Liu Feng had been arrested, Zhou Cang was the first to bear it, and wanted to go out to save people.

"General Zhou, don't worry."

Yan Yan said: "Chen Yang suddenly appeared in the south of Wugo Kingdom and took down General Liu in one fell swoop. Even if we go, we will die!"

Zhou Cang said excitedly: "Could it be that Chen Yang is allowed to mess around?"

"Of course not."

Yan Yan said in a deep voice: "But how to deal with Chen Yang can't be based on enthusiasm. We have to think long-term. Otherwise, let's forget if we can't save anyone, and even you will be arrested. What should we do?"

Thinking of Chen Yang's deeds of using soldiers like a god and being full of tricks, Zhou Cang could only choose to remain silent.

"Chen Yang is really difficult to deal with."

Zhuge Liang finally said slowly: "Continue to increase our troops, completely suppress Chen Yang in the Ugo country, and make him unable to leave the Ugo country. Make another arrangement. I'm going to meet Chen Yang for a while."

It is inevitable to face Chen Yang.

Zhuge Liang still had to go there in person to be sure, and he was still worried about the others.

In this Kingdom of Shu, the only ones who can fight against Chen Yang are Zhuge Liang or Sima Hui.

Sima Hui will not show up at this time, only he will go.

"Prime Minister, it is enough for me to go."

Ma Chao said loudly: "The prime minister's status is important, and he cannot leave Yongchang lightly. As long as I have enough troops, I will definitely bring Chen Yang's head back."

Zhuge Liang shook his head and said: "No, this matter is settled like this. When I'm not around, Yan Yan, you must take good care of Your Majesty."

Next, Zhuge Liang rectified his army and horses, and took people out of Yongchang early the next morning.

Zhuge Liang was very nervous, but when he saw the grandpa beside him, he felt relieved, which would increase his chances of winning.

-

After Chen Yang captured Liu Feng, like Liu Bei before, he made a cage for him, bound his hands and feet and locked him inside.

When Hongfu learned that Liu Feng could be used in exchange for grandpa, her uneasy heart calmed down a lot.

From Liu Feng's performance, Red Finch could tell that Grandpa really wasn't dead.

The northern part of the Ugo Kingdom was completely blocked by the remaining soldiers of the Shu army. Tens of thousands of troops stood there, trying to stop Chen Yang from going north.

After Liu Feng was captured, Chen Yang knew the news of his presence here and could no longer hide it.

His thousands of people had to face an army of tens of thousands. The pressure was a bit high. It was not a big problem to kill them, but there were many casualties.

Although with the help of Yueshang Kingdom, their army is still vulnerable.

A few days later, the ruler of Yueshang Kingdom also came here when he heard the news of Chen Yang's victory.

"General Chen, did you take down Ugo Kingdom?"

The king had just arrived here, so he asked excitedly.

He seems to be very eager to get the Ugo country.

"The south-central region is already my place. As for the north... I can't go out for the time being. I don't have enough troops and supplies. Your Yueshang country's army is too weak to use it."

In front of him, Chen Yang was not afraid to tell the truth, and continued: "As for how to take down the entire Wugo country, I still have to plan how to do it."

The lord said excitedly: "General Chen is indeed invincible. Not long after he came here, he has done things that we have not been able to do for more than ten years. I can finally avenge my country's revenge. I represent my people , thank you General."

After all, he bowed and bowed with a very sincere attitude.

"You don't have to be polite, the lord, we also take what we need, that's all."

Even though Chen Yang said so, he readily accepted his worship.

"General!"

Wenpin came over suddenly and said, "Zhuge Liang is here, and he asks to see the general."

Zhuge Liang even came here in person.

Chen Yang was a little surprised that he dared to come to see him.

"Come on, let's go take a look together."
