Chapter 42 Xuzhou Pingding, Zhuge distinguishes the military aircraft!
"Your Majesty, General Xu Huang defeated Yang Hong's reinforcements and has captured Langya."
The soldier reported.
"This ......"
Liu Bei and Zhang Liao were taken aback, although Yang Hong was not as good as Ji Ling, he also had nearly 20,000 people there.
Coupled with the more than 10,000 troops who attacked Langya, Xu Huang actually repelled the attack of more than 30,000 troops?
Isn't this even more fierce than General Zhang Liao.
"Let's go, go to Langya."
Liu Xie was also very curious, although Zhang Liao was only in his twenties now, he was still in the growth stage.
But in history, Zhang Liao is the head of the five good generals, and the current Xu Huang can only be on the same level as Zhang Liao at most.
The victory on the battlefield of Langya really surprised Liu Xie.
Langya County.
"Minister Xu Huang, see Your Majesty."
At the city gate, Xu Huang took his soldiers and soldiers to greet Liu Xie.
"General Xu, congratulations on winning Langya."
Liu Xie said with a smile.
"The capture of Xuzhou this time depends on the assistance of Mr. Zhuge ."
Xu Huang didn't take credit, and turned to look behind him, a middle-aged man dressed as a writer.
"Zhuge ?"
Liu Xie was shocked, and suddenly woke up, Langya is Zhuge Liang's hometown, and I don't know if this Mr. Zhuge has anything to do with Zhuge Liang.
"Minister Zhuge Xuan, knock to see Your Majesty."
Zhuge Xuan came to Liu Xie's front to salute, his face was clear, and he had a upright demeanor.
"Zhuge Xuan!"
Liu Xie was shocked again, Zhuge Xuan was Zhuge Liang's uncle.
Originally, Zhuge Liang's father Zhuge Jue was Taishan County, but when Zhuge Liang was eight years old, Zhuge Jue died.
In addition, the Yellow Turban Rebellion broke out at that time, and Zhuge Xuan, in order to avoid chaos, took the four Zhuge Liang brothers and sisters back to Langya's hometown.
"Your Majesty?"
Zhuge Xuan was stunned for a moment, His Majesty heard his name, as for being so surprised?
"Your Majesty, this attack on Langya, thanks to Mr. Zhuge Xuan, united with the Shi clan, to help us resist Yuan Shu's army."
"This time the danger of Langya has been solved, and Mr. Zhuge Xuan should be the first to take the lead."
Xu Huang came to Liu Xie's side and said in a low voice.
"Haha, I have heard the name of the Zhuge family in Langya for a long time, and I don't want to meet Mr. Zhuge Xuan here."
Liu Xie smiled, meeting Zhuge Xuan was indeed an unexpected gain, according to the timeline, Zhuge Jin, the eldest son of Zhuge Jin, traveled abroad to study, and the second son Zhuge Liang should follow Zhuge Xuan.
Zhuge Liang's name, shaking the ancient and modern, how can Liu Xie not be excited?
He immediately said: "Mr. Zhuge Xuan, I intend to make you my main book, is Mr. willing to be my master?" ”
"Chen Zhuge Xuan, I am willing to contribute to the Han family."
Zhuge Xuan hurriedly knelt down and was sealed, although the official position of the chief bookkeeper was not high, he was mainly responsible for clerical work.
But the main book of the Son of Heaven is a different matter, which is a special honor for Zhuge Xuan.
"The bloody battles of the generals made Ji Ling's plan to annex the five counties of Xuzhou fail, and now it should be a big banquet to reward the three armies."
After the war, the most important thing was to restore combat strength, so Liu Xie and others began to celebrate in Langya County.
But to Liu Xie's regret, after the celebration banquet, he did not see the young Zhuge Liang.
Liu Xie almost asked Zhuge Xuan directly.
"Your Majesty, now that Yuan Shu's army has been repulsed and Xuzhou has been pacified, are you going back to Xudu?"
Lu Lingqi sat next to Liu Xie and asked.
"Yuan Shu has 300,000 troops, and it is difficult to conquer for a while, so he really has to return to Xudu first."
Liu Xie nodded, in addition to going back by himself, Lu Bu and Liu Bei would also follow him back to Xudu, and Lu Lingqi was naturally no exception.
Hearing this, Zhang Liao, Xu Huang and other generals all showed joy on their faces.
Xuzhou has been decided, so the next strategic direction is to recover Luoyang.
"Although Ji Ling retreated, the war in Xuzhou has not been completely calmed."
At this time, a slightly immature voice sounded, causing a trace of disharmony in the originally joyful atmosphere.
Everyone looked over and saw a young man about fourteen years old, eating and eating, while saying, "Repel Ji Ling, Xuzhou may not be without war." ”
"Who is this kid?"
The generals stared at him curiously.
"Kong Ming, don't talk nonsense."
Zhuge Xuan was a little embarrassed, his nephew didn't have dinner at home, so Zhuge Xuan brought him over for dinner, but he didn't expect that in this public, he would discuss state affairs in vain.
"Oh?"
Lu Lingqi became interested and asked: "Little brother, you said that there is still a war in Xuzhou, but Ji Ling has been defeated, who else can be His Majesty's opponent?" ”
Lu Lingqi's age is actually a little younger than this young man, but she has already fought the enemy on the battlefield, and she is not comparable to this kind of little hairy child.
"Yuan Shu's subordinates are more than 100,000 troops, and more than Ji Ling, a general, why do you think Yuan Shu will not continue to attack?"
The boy asked with a smile.
"Ji Ling is the chief general under Yuan Shu, if he is defeated, who will dare to fight?"
Lu Lingqi's temper became fierce, and the atmosphere became awkward for a while.
"You don't really think that Yuan Shu's purpose is to attack the other five counties outside Xiapi, right?"
The boy spread his hands.
The two debated, and the atmosphere became awkward for a while.
"Kong Ming!"
Zhuge Xuan pulled his nephew's clothes and motioned him to stop talking, and the young man gave up.
"Your Majesty, this is the nephew of the minister, and he has always been spoiled by the minister, please forgive me."
Zhuge Xuan said embarrassedly.
"He is worthy of being a descendant of the Langya Zhuge family, he is quite courageous."
"It's just that young people should study hard and don't talk about military affairs."
The generals joked with a smile.
After speaking, Zhuge Xuan's face became more and more embarrassed.
"Your name is Zhuge Liang, right?"
Liu Xie looked over and said, "Please continue what you just said and continue." ”
"Your Majesty?"
Everyone was shocked, this young man named Zhuge Liang obviously didn't understand the situation, but he didn't expect His Majesty to value it so much.
"Your Majesty, isn't this just a child?"
Lu Lingqi asked puzzled.
"Don't forget, I'm only fifteen years old this year."
Liu Xie Huoran got up, walked to Zhuge Xuan's uncle and nephew, and said, "Please continue." ”
Zhuge Liang looked at his uncle, and Zhuge Xuan said: "Kong Ming, Your Majesty asked you to say it, so you can say it." ”
"Okay."
Zhuge Liang stood up with a smile and said: "As we all know, the seat of governance in Xuzhou is in Xiapi, and the heavy troops of His Majesty, Uncle Liu Huang, and Lu Wenhou are also in Xiapi. ”
"If Ji Ling can take the five counties, he will surround Xiapi, if His Majesty divides troops to save him, Xiapi will be empty."
"Just ask, such a great opportunity, how could Yuan Shu miss it?"
After saying that, the generals looked at each other, and they found that the child had a point.
"If I were Yuan Shu, I would definitely take advantage of the emptiness of Xiapi and send heavy troops to attack Xiapi."
"If you can get Pi, won't you be better than the five counties of Xuzhou?"
Liu Xie said with a smile.
"Your Majesty, will Yuan Shu really send troops to attack Xiapi?"
Liu Bei and the others asked curiously.
"Little Brother Zhuge said yes, then it will."
Liu Xie said with a smile, in fact, before sending out the troops, he also had this kind of premonition, so he stayed outside the city of Pi, where he often met the Chuntun soldiers.
Even if Zhang Liao was in trouble, he refused to call it.
"Little brother Zhuge ."
Liu Xie continued to look at Zhuge Liang and asked, "If Yuan Shu sends troops to attack Xiapi, then how many troops are there?" ”
