Three Kingdoms Swept the World II

Chapter 1176
Chengdu.

With a population of 50, people are in panic.

Chengdu has been completely militarized and managed. In this city, only a few gentry still maintain their previous status and do not need to work. There are only two types of people in the city, one is a soldier, and the other is a service soldier.

The king of Shu implemented military rationing to maximize the interests of soldiers, and the common people were basically slaves.

In the palace, Liu Bei and Zhuge Liang, as well as all the civil and military officials of the Shu Kingdom, were all in a state of desperation.

Liu Bei circled his ears for a while, and said bitterly: "Obviously, no matter how long the experience is, Qin Zijin will never retreat."

Hearing this, the officials thought to themselves that you see it too clearly, Your Majesty, isn't that the case.Now we are the only ones left, and they are waiting to destroy us, and they will become emperors. If they don't destroy us, they will never withdraw their troops.

Seeing the sluggish atmosphere, the second master came out with a blushing face, and said firmly, "Our army of 20 soldiers is ready to help the Han and destroy the Qin!"

Liu Bei was very relieved that his brothers were still reliable at critical moments.He looked at Zhuge Liang and said hopefully, "Prime Minister, do you have a plan to break the current situation? It's okay to regain some lost ground."

Zhuge Liang shook his feather fan anxiously, thinking that it is not easy to maintain the current situation, break it, and regain the lost ground?If Qin Zijin dies, maybe he still has a chance.But the key point is, don't wait for Qin Zijin to die, never heard of Qin Zijin getting sick.

Due to the recent stability of the battle situation, Zhuge Liang did not consider the immediate battle, but was studying the life of King Qin.He suddenly discovered that King Qin had seen through everyone's schemes.He began to work on researching why this is?
Why is it?

Why are so many strategies and tactics that are destined to become classics in the history of war not easy to use when it comes to Qin Zijin?
Zhuge Liang has not found anything so far.

Zhuge Liang didn't speak all the time, which was very rude, but everyone saw it. The prime minister was thinking for a while, frowning, shaking his feather fan, and looking grim. This is work.

Liu Bei sighed, and he waved his hand, indicating that the officials could go back to work quietly.

At this time, there was a sound of running away from outside the hall.

Hundreds of thousands of Qin troops were besieging the city outside, so Liu Bei and others were shocked when they heard the sound of such footsteps.

"Report..." A Shu military officer covered in blood, with a long voice, rushed into the hall, knelt down with a plop, and shouted: "Urgent report from the northern line!"

The northern line is the defense line of Jiange.

Zhuge Liang came back to his senses and said, "Say it quickly!"

"My lord, the Qin army suddenly appeared behind our army and has captured the Fushui area. Jiangyou has fallen!"

"What!" Liu Bei and his Wenwu stared wide-eyed.

The sound of footsteps.

"Report..., Your Majesty, something is wrong, Zitong has fallen!"

thump thump...

"Report..., Your Majesty, something has happened to the eldest son, Fucheng was taken by the Qin army~."

With this news, the Palace of the Shu Palace was shaken, and the civil and military officials of the Shu Kingdom trembled in shock, their faces turned blue. Many senior officials held their foreheads and spun around, and then fell to the ground in a faint.

Liu Bei jumped up, and the big ears circled around for a while, then crashed.

Zhuge Liang's Lun Towel stood up at once. Of course, the Lun Towel wouldn't stand up by itself, but after being frightened, his hair started to stand up. The idiom "hair upside down" comes from here, and the explanation of the idiom is: the tail is upright.His fine hairs and hair stood on end.

Heck, Zhuge Liang's towel fell down, because his hair couldn't stay upside down for a long time.He threw the feather fan, rushed forward, grabbed three messengers with both hands, and shouted: "The Jiange has fallen?"

"The Jiange is not lost!" The three shouted.

Zhuge Liang was stunned, but instead he felt that the situation was getting more serious, and asked, "How did the Qin army bypass the Jiange and appear behind our army?"

"I don't know..." the man from Jiangyou said.

"Suddenly appeared in Zitong." Zitong said kindly.

"As far as I know, the Qin Army first appeared in Songpan County," said Humane from Fucheng.

"How many soldiers and horses does the Qin army have?" Guan Yu asked.

"Forty to fifty thousand people." The three said in unison.

Forty to fifty thousand people, with such a scale, how could it be possible to enter Shuzhong silently?
In fact, how Qin Jun came here is actually not important.The important thing is, starting from Songpan County, to the important town of Jiangyou, to Zitong County, to Fucheng.These places are important rear areas that the Shu army relies on to maintain its logistics. The fall of these places declares that the Shu army's logistics supply line has been taken away, which is more dangerous than cutting it off.

In the future, the Shu army will have no food to eat, how can they fight without food?

Liu Bei's complexion was reddish purple, the unforgettable feeling of the end came to him for the first time.No matter how many times he was in a desperate situation before, Liu Bei didn't feel this way.But this time he really felt it. It came from the fact that he was the only one left in the whole world.

"Take it back, send troops to take it back!" Liu Bei gradually became hysterical.

Guan Yu was about to make a move, Zhuge Liang hurriedly stopped him.

Zhuge Liang stood up, waved his fan, and said, "My lords, go down and rest first. Although the form is more difficult, there will definitely be a way out."

The civil and military officials didn't know how he left the Shu Palace.

Liu Bei shouted: "Kong Ming, what to do, our army has lost all the rear, and we must take it back."

Zhuge Liang was already on fire, but he still kept calm and said: "Our army only has 10 people in Chengdu. If we send too few, we will be unable to recover. If we send too many, there will be loopholes in Chengdu's defense. If Chengdu loses, the general situation will be destroyed. also go."

In fact, how could Liu Bei not know the current situation.

"Fight with Qin Zijin!" Zhang Fei became irritable.

The irritable Zhang Fei has also seen the current situation. It can be said that he has reached the last moment of extinction, and Zhang Fei wants to go out and desperately.

Instead, Liu Bei relented on the throne of the King of Shu. He had read too many descriptions of the end of the king in books, and now it was his turn.

For a long time, no one spoke.

Zhuge Liang said with difficulty: "My lord, let's break through." He didn't consider any possibility of counterattack, because counterattack is impossible, and now he can only break out to save his life.

Liu Bei was in tears. This 40-year-old king was originally in the prime of his life.However, this king has experienced too much suffering and pressure that ordinary people can't imagine.At first, I thought that I could finally show my ambition, but I didn't expect that everything is not the beginning of the story, but the end of the story.And he, Liu Bei, was just a foil in the end.

"The world is so big, where can I go?" Liu Bei said lonely.

If Liu Bei breaks through the siege and all the world belongs to Qin, where can Liu Bei go?
