The opportunity may come soon, this year Wei raised more than 100,000 troops to attack Shu in three ways, Wei general Zhuge Xu led 30,000 east and west into the tired Han army, Wei general Zhong Hui led 80,000 soldiers to buckle the Sword Pavilion Pass, and the main force of Shu Han was tightly contained in the Sword Pavilion Pass and could not make any changes.

At this time, in the Shu Han Dynasty, the king Liu Chan was still promiscuous, and he took pleasure in fighting crickets every day, thinking that Shu was as dangerous as a rock, and it was impossible for the Wei army to break in, but at this time, Deng Ai, the general of Wei, led 30,000 troops to smuggle across the Yinping Trail by surprise, and successfully entered the hinterland of Shuzhong by trekking through mountains and rivers over steep mountains.

Liu Yao, a prince who didn't know about military affairs, still didn't have any right to speak, and he was powerless to change all this, until he received the news that Deng Ai led 30,000 troops into Chengdu and approached Chengdu, that Shu Han panicked and the ministers were shaken.

On that day, Emperor Huai of the Han Dynasty Liu Chan was frightened to drop the crickets, and urgently convened a court meeting to discuss countermeasures, a group of ministers were panicked, there was no way to deal with it, the eunuch Huang Hao had been in power for many years, and the capable ministers in the Shu Han Dynasty had basically been squeezed out by Huang Hao, and there was no one in the court who could take charge alone, if nothing else, the last flame of the Han Dynasty was about to die.

Hearing the news that Deng Ai's army of Wei had hit the hinterland of Shuzhong, General Wei Zhuge Zhan had to lead 20,000 soldiers of the old, weak, sick and disabled in Chengdu to be ordered to resist Deng Ai's army, Zhuge Zhan was the son of Zhuge Liang, the prime minister of Shu Han Dynasty, and under the influence of Prime Minister Zhuge Liang's residual power, Huang Hao did not really drive him out of the court even if Zhuge Zhan was excluded many times.

Liu Chan finally retained a trace of sobriety when the country was in danger, and on the one hand, he handed over all the troops capable of fighting in Chengdu to Zhuge Zhan's command, and on the other hand, he hurriedly sent envoys to ask for help from Eastern Wu and Nanzhong, and ordered Jiang Wei, the general of Jiange Pass, to quickly send rescue troops to help Chengdu.

Shang Shulang Huang Chong suggested that Zhuge Zhan lead the army out of Chengdu earlier, and then divide his troops to seize the dangerous place in Shuzhong to block Deng Ai's army to delay time, and wait for reinforcements from all sides to arrive, and the predicament of Chengdu can be solved.

Although Zhuge Zhan is the son of Prime Minister Zhuge Liang, he inherited Zhuge Liang's cautious and steady character, but he did not inherit Zhuge Liang's ability to adapt to changes with wisdom and demons, and he was strategic, his own idea was to gather troops to hold Chengdu, Chengdu City had enough grain and grass, and it was more secure to hold on, but dividing troops to attack and hold the pass to block the Wei army could effectively stop the offensive of the Wei army and win more time for the arrival of reinforcements.

At this time, Zhuge Zhan hesitated between dividing his troops and holding on to Chengdu, but he didn't know that he had lost all the opportunities to choose.

Zhuge Zhan did not lead the army to leave Chengdu for a long time, just gave Huang Hao an excuse to slander, Huang Hao and others took advantage of this matter to the rear lord Liu Chanjin slandered that Zhuge Zhan was afraid of the enemy, and asked to remove Zhuge Zhan, and finally Zhuge Zhan was forced to lead the army to take the initiative under the pressure of the DPRK, but at this time the dangerous place in Shu had already been taken by Deng Ai's army, leaving only Fucheng Pass, the last pass in Chengdu.

Because Fucheng Pass is the pass that Deng Ai's army must take to enter Chengdu, the city is easy to defend and difficult to attack, but the Shu Han army can not transport grain and grass to Fucheng Pass in a short period of time, and finally Zhuge Zhan decided to fight a decisive battle with Deng Ai's army in Mianzhu outside Chengdu, but Fucheng Pass can not be directly abandoned, and finally has to divide troops to choke Fucheng Pass first, to prepare for the decisive battle of Mianzhu to win time.

Even though Fucheng Pass is easy to attack and difficult to defend, there will not be too many troops if the troops are divided, and at most 3,000 soldiers and horses can only be divided, and it will not be able to resist Deng Ai's 30,000 troops no matter what, so it is basically destined to go to Fucheng at this time.

But who should lead the army to hold Fucheng Pass is another problem, and there is no general in Chengdu at this time who can take charge alone.

Since Deng Ai had smuggled through the Yinping Trail and led the army to Chengdu, Liu Yao had never slept well, his career as a prince had probably come to an end, and it wouldn't be long before he would become a prisoner of the clan in the hands of the Wei army, but what could he do.

On this day, I heard that His Majesty listened to Zhuge Zhan's advice and convened a court meeting to ask a general to lead the troops to guard the Fucheng Pass, Liu Yao couldn't sit still anymore, he really didn't want to be a prisoner, he didn't want to send people to live in fear every day, this was the only chance to lead the troops, even if there was no return, it was better than sitting here and waiting to be killed, thinking of this, Liu Yao didn't care about the regulations that the prince could not participate in the court politics, and strode out of the palace, ready to break into the court meeting, no matter what, he had to fight for this last chance.

Liu Chan asked in the court who could lead the army to guard Fucheng Pass, but no one dared to come out to answer, the court was full of big husbands to be daughters, Liu Chan was even more desperate, at this time he could not forcibly point the general, and the forced general was afraid that the general who led the troops would surrender to the Wei army directly when he arrived at Fucheng Pass.

Suddenly, there was a commotion outside the court, Liu Chan didn't know what was going on, so he ordered the eunuchs around him to go out to find out, and some eunuchs were ordered to go out to check, and after a while, they hurriedly walked in and told Liu Chan: "Your Majesty! Outside, His Royal Highness the King of Anding County is forcibly breaking through the palace gate. ”

When Liu Chan heard this, he suddenly had some doubts and asked, "King Anding?" Liu Yao? The prince is not allowed to participate in the affairs of the court, what is he doing at this time? ”

"The slave doesn't know, His Highness is only clamoring to see His Majesty." The eunuch replied.

Liu Chan wanted to see what his son was doing at this time, so he ordered: "Announce him in!" ”

"Nuo~" The eunuch replied and hurriedly walked out again.

"Liu Yao, the king of Xuan'an Dingjun, is here!" After a while, a eunuch stood outside the door of the court and shouted loudly.

Liu Yao walked into the court in three steps and two steps, this was probably Liu Yao's first time participating in the court meeting of the Shu Han regime, Zhang Zun who was standing in the middle of the court, watching Liu Yao walk in, couldn't help but break into a cold sweat for Liu Yao, the prince of the clan broke into the court is a serious crime, I don't know what Liu Yao is going to do.

Liu Yao followed the etiquette taught to him by the eunuch beside Liu Chan who guided him just now, entered the center of the court, bowed down, and shouted: "Minister, Liu Yao, the king of Anding County, see Your Majesty!" ”

"Excuse me! Why did Yao'er forcibly break into the court? Have you forgotten that the prince is not allowed to participate in court politics? Liu Chan asked with some displeasure.

"Qi Qi father, the son of the minister was in a hurry to force his way into the court, the son of the prince of the Han family, but can not do a penny for the Han family, now it is the time of my Han life and death, I hope that the father can give the son a soldier and horse, the son is willing to lead the army and the Wei army to fight a bloody battle, even if he dies to serve the country, he does not want to bear the difficulty of the first emperor to start a business, but also hope that the father will approve!" Liu Yao leaned down and kowtowed again, and kept pleading.
