Chapter 761: Madness Before Despair

The war in Liaodong ended temporarily, although the process was full of twists and turns, but in the end, Zhao and Chu basically achieved their own goals.

As far as Yuan Shao is concerned, although he failed to capture Sun Ce alive and capture Liaodong, it was a big victory after all, not only greatly increased the momentum that had been falling behind, but also after eliminating the cavalry in Liaodong, he did not need to worry about the danger of being attacked by the enemy in the future.

As far as Yuan Shu is concerned, none of the many generals and strategists died in battle, except for Zhou Tai, who broke off an arm, and the others almost retreated. After this battle, Sun Ce and the others grew up rapidly, and they could even be called reborn, which really made Yuan Shu feel gratified.

Although it sounds cold-blooded and cruel, in fact, the lives of more than 20,000 soldiers are really nothing in Yuan Shu's eyes, just a string of numbers. As a monarch, Yuan Shu is already a benevolent government and loves the people, but he is not a woman's benevolence. Sitting in this position, it is natural to consider the overall situation, Yuan Shu can try his best to ensure the treatment of soldiers and the pension of these soldiers who died in battle, but he will never regret the death of these soldiers. Only the death of these soldiers can awaken Sun Ce and exchange it for a better future for Da Chu. Compared to the harvest, this little sacrifice was not taken to heart by Yuan Shu.

The start of the battle in Liaodong was like a fuse, and the already tense form was surging again. Among the remaining princes in the world, the most nervous and crazy is Liu Bei.

With only half of Yanzhou's territory, but more than 100,000 soldiers, Liu Bei's strength can be described as extremely weak in the eyes of Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu's brothers. But the difference is that Yuan Shu doesn't care about this, while Yuan Shao wants to join forces with Liu Bei in line with the idea that no matter how small a fly is, it is meat.

Liu Bei was unwilling to be Yuan Shao's vassal, so he did not accept Yuan Shao's "good intentions", but only reached an alliance with Yuan Shao in name only. Although this maintained his independence, it also put Liu Bei in an extremely dangerous situation.

In this desperate situation, some people will get drunk and dream of dying, but some people will fall into madness. And Liu Bei, who is determined, obviously will not be the former, and he does not intend to sit idly by with perseverance.

"Wing, how's it going? Have you found out? Liu Bei, who has always been friendly, no longer has a warm and cordial face, and looks a little gloomy.

"Big brother, these people in the family are really wolf ambitions, and they all have a large number of private soldiers and hidden young men, if they are all arrested, it will be enough to double the number of our soldiers." Zhang Fei's tone was full of anger.

"yes, I see. You must find out the details of each family's private soldiers and young people, record them all, and I will use them soon. Liu Bei said angrily.

"Big brother, do you really want to turn your face with these people? Without their help, I'm afraid we wouldn't be able to govern and control Yanzhou at all! At that time, even if he wins Yuan Highway, I'm afraid it will be meaningless. Zhang Fei, who has always been reckless, calmly advised.

Guan Yu's capture hit him too hard, making this violent Zhang Sanye a little less reckless and more calm and calm. Because Liu Bei can only rely on him now.

Liu Ye, who was the same sect as Liu Bei, was captured along with Guan Yu, and now the advisors around him, including Chen Qun, are all members of the family. And in the current situation, these people from families naturally have reservations about Liu Bei and can't help them. This situation of almost betraying relatives is also one of the reasons why Liu Bei fell into madness.

"Yide, do you really believe that I can defeat Yuan Highway and save Yun Chang?" Liu Bei looked at Zhang Fei with a sincere face, and showed a rare smile. Every time he slaughters more dogs, no matter how things change in the world, his two brothers will always stand by his side. It is said that he is a descendant of a lonely Han family, and he is so lucky to be able to get these two brothers who are enemies of ten thousand people.

"It must be possible, but it's just a little Yuan Shu. No matter what the road ahead is, as long as the eldest brother says a word, I will definitely lead the army to cut off his head and save the second brother! Zhang Fei said in a solemn tone.

When Liu Bei heard this, he smiled slightly, the haze in his heart these days was suddenly swept away, he got up and slowly walked to Zhang Fei, patted him lightly on the shoulder, sorted out the armor for him, and said, "Don't worry, big brother promises, I will definitely save Yun Chang back." Don't forget what you just told you, you must be careful in your actions, and it won't be long before our three brothers will be together again. ”

"Hmm!" Zhang Fei grinned, nodded heavily, and turned away with a smile on his face.

Looking at Zhang Fei's departing figure, the smile on Liu Bei's lips gradually turned bitter, and the smile in his eyes also turned crazy and cold, and he secretly whispered: "Yide, don't worry, eldest brother will definitely reunite you and my brother." I don't want to be born on the same day and month of the same year, but I want to die on the same day and month of the same year, and the big brother has never forgotten the original oath. Even if you lose the world, the eldest brother will never fail you! ”

"Family, hehe."

In this life, Liu Bei did not experience the ups and downs of the original historical trajectory, although it could not be said to be smooth sailing all the way with the help of the family, but at least there was a place to settle down and there was no shortage of soldiers and food, and he was not like the original wandering and wandering.

However, in Liu Bei's heart, what he feared and hated the most was the family that helped him get to where he is today.

There is no free lunch in the world, and the families are all a group of greedy wolves, how can they work for Liu Bei in vain? While serving Liu Bei, they are also digging into Liu Bei's corners all the time, eroding Liu Bei's power. This is what the Maisons are.

Why did Cao Cao, who was brilliant in history, bent on curbing the family, because the family was too powerful and greedy. They are not satisfied with corrupting a big man, and they want to get rid of the shackles of imperial power and completely herdsify the world. Of course, in the end, they also succeeded, and after surviving Cao Cao and others, Sima Daihan, the family completely stepped onto the stage of history and reached the peak.

Why did Wu retreat to Jiangdong? Because the Eastern Wu family is not in the world, they only think about separating one side, and they have been dragging Sun Quan's Northern Expedition back. If it weren't for Zhou Yu's strength, when Cao Cao went south, they would have surrendered long ago.

Why did Liu Chan surrender in Kaesong? Liu Bei, assisted by Zhuge Liang, used Jingzhou people to suppress the local snakes in Yizhou at the beginning, and let the two interest groups fight each other before he could control Yizhou. However, after Zhuge Liang's death, the Jingzhou scholars who had no foundation were no match for the Yizhou scholars who fought on the mainland. Liu Bei and Zhuge Liang's approach also angered the Yizhou family. They didn't care who ruled Yizhou, but Yizhou had to be under their control, and Shu Han blocked their way, and in the end, Liu Chan's self-restraint became the end.

Over the years, when the family has been helping Liu Bei, they are also taking advantage of this to be frantically corroded. There are more than 100,000 young people in hiding, what is this concept? Liu Bei's young men were almost hollowed out.

Don't think it's a fantasy, the family's ability to hide the population is absolutely terrifying in this troubled world. Borrowing the power of a country to feed a family, this is the family.

"You forced me, don't blame me!" The look of madness in Liu Bei's eyes appeared, and he muttered in his mouth.
