Jagged hegemony of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 919 This Is Probably Fate

"Your Majesty, this is a good news from Commander Yue, Commander Zhao, and Commander Dian!"

In the Imperial Palace in Kyoto, Eunuch Ma holds the battle report he just received in his hand.

"Take it apart and read it!"

Liu Wei said casually.

"Here!"

Eunuch Ma opened the battle report and read: "Your Majesty Qizuo, the ministers have slaughtered Jianye City and burned it to the ground. They have now withdrawn to Xuzhou. In addition, according to military doctors, people in Jiangdong have been infected. Plague, and the number of people is not small, and it will not be long before the plague will break out in Jiangdong!"

After reading the battle report, Eunuch Ma put down the battle report in his hand and said, "Your Majesty, the outbreak of this plague is a big deal. I'm afraid the people in Jiangdong will suffer again!"

Liu Wei said with a blank expression: "The outbreak of the plague in Jiangdong was the fault of Sun Bofu alone. If he fulfilled his promise and returned Xuzhou, how would we send troops to attack Jiangdong? How can there be another massacre of the city!"

"But Your Majesty, the mistakes made by Sun Bofu should not make the people of Jiangdong suffer. Once this plague breaks out, the people of Jiangdong may suffer heavy casualties!"

Eunuch Ma couldn't bear it.

"Xing, the people are suffering, and the dead are suffering! No matter how you say it, no matter what time it is, it is the people who suffer. It's a pity that Jiangdong is not under my control. Otherwise, how could I let the people of Jiangdong suffer such crimes!"

Liu Wei sighed.

"By the way, is there any news from Peng'er in the past few days? He hasn't sent me a good news for a long time!"

Liu Wei asked.

"Your Majesty, Liu Bei's Zhuge Liang used tricks to stop the second prince. Although the second prince is brave, he is not good at using tricks. After suffering a few losses at Zhuge Liang's hands, he has been fighting the Jingzhou army!"

Eunuch Ma was talking about what happened ten days ago. Originally, Liu Peng went all the way south and fought smoothly. The defenders along the road couldn't stop Liu Peng's army at all. But when they arrived in Yuzhou, Guan Yu led the army to stop him. It dragged Liu Peng from going south.

Liu Peng discussed with Zhong Hui, and the two agreed to divide the troops into two groups. Liu Peng dragged Guan Yu here, and Zhong Hui led a detour to attack other counties in Xuzhou.

But things backfired, and Zhong Hui also encountered a strong enemy. Zhuge Liang's beloved apprentice Deng Ai blocked Zhong Hui's way, and the two went into battle to fight, evenly matched. The master of war got Zhuge Liang's advice again, no matter whether it was a literary fight or a martial fight, the two of them couldn't tell the winner. Wen Yang was brave and tried his best to turn the tide several times. I am afraid that Zhong Hui would be defeated by Deng Ai.

On the other side, if it weren't for the elite of the Northern Han army, Liu Peng would have been defeated by Zhuge Liang long ago, but Liu Peng has a good face and doesn't want to ask Liu Wei for help, so he has been struggling to support him.

"Marshal, if it doesn't work, let's ask His Majesty for help. This Zhuge Liang is really scheming. In the past few months, we have lost more than 1 soldiers and horses. If we continue to fight like this, we will be defeated by Zhuge Liang sooner or later!"

Tai Shiheng felt that the battles of the past few months were too aggrieved. Fighting generals, facing fierce generals like Guan Yu and Zhang Fei, although Liu Peng was brave, but Guan and Zhang went into battle together. He and Liu Peng could not stop Guan Yu and Zhang Fei. Fei, together with Guan Yu and Zhang Fei's youngsters, they don't have an advantage at all.

"When I came here, I promised my father that I could regain Yanzhou and even march into Yuzhou, but now that the battle is going on, what face do I have to write to my father for help!"

Liu Peng still couldn't let go of his face and didn't want to ask Liu Wei for help.

"The commander-in-chief is confused. If you don't ask for help now, it's so difficult to ask for help after we are defeated. At that time, the commander-in-chief will have no face to see His Majesty!"

Tai Shiheng persuaded.

Liu Peng was silent, and after struggling in his heart for a long time, he finally said, "Well, I'll write to my father for help, but how can I speak?"

Tai Shiheng said: "The commander-in-chief said that although the Jingzhou army is easy to deal with, but Zhuge Liang is a monster, and Guan Yu and Zhang Fei are helping each other. The battle here is tight, and you can't bear it. Let your majesty send some resourceful men to take it with you. Just tens of thousands of soldiers and horses will do!"

"A wise man? Who do you want?"

Liu Peng looked at Tai Shiheng suspiciously.

"He is a resourceful man who can deal with Zhuge Liang!"

Tai Shiheng replied.

"Just tell me who to come. I will directly ask the father, and the father will definitely give it to me!"

Liu Peng said confidently.

"Well, there are probably only two people in the Manchu Dynasty who can be as resourceful as Zhuge Liang. One is Guo Yi and Guo Boyi, and the other is Sima Yi and Sima Zhongda. Choose one of these two and come here!"

"Then I want Guo Yi. I don't like Sima Yi's appearance. Every time I see him, I feel uncomfortable when I look at him!"

Liu Peng didn't have a good impression of Sima Yi, so he wrote in the letter that he wanted Guo Yi to come to help him.

After writing the distress letter, Liu Peng sent soldiers and horses to send it to Liu Wei at high speed.

After Liu Wei received Liu Peng's distress letter, he was not surprised at all, but was a little surprised that Liu Peng asked Guo Yi.

"Guo Yi?"

Liu Wei stroked his half-white beard, shook his head and said, "If his old man Guo Jia, he still has the capital to fight Zhuge Liang, but Guo Yi is probably in a hurry, and he may not be Zhuge Liang's opponent!"

After thinking for a long time, Liu Wei sighed: "Let Sima Yi go, I can still hold Sima Yi down now, although Sima Yi has rebellion in the back of his head, but now I am alive, he can't jump up! When I get old, Peng'er will be almost the same. It is also possible to completely command the soldiers and horses of the Northern Han Dynasty, as long as Guo Yi and Chen Qun help Peng'er, Sima Yi will still not be able to control the soldiers and horses, so I can rest assured."

Immediately, Liu Wei ordered Long Jian and his Iron Buddha to be transferred from Liaozhou, and Sima Yi was appointed as a military adviser to go south with Ma Chao, Ma Dai, and Pang De, and an army of [-] was transferred to assist Liu Peng. Departure recently.

After receiving the imperial edict, Long Jian, Sima Yi, Ma Chao, Ma Dai, and Pang De immediately went to the palace to meet Liu Wei, and then gathered outside the capital city. The five led an army of [-] to go south to aid Liu Peng.

After the army set off, Liu Wei looked at the leaving army and murmured, "I'm afraid this is fate. These two people may be born enemies, and they will meet each other on the battlefield after all!"

At this moment, Liu Wei was standing on the top of the city wall. Seen from behind, his back was a little hunched. Even if Liu Wei tried to straighten his back, he couldn't make himself stand straight.

A generation of heroes will also grow old one day, but I don't know how long Liu Wei can last.
