Zhuge Liang seemed to have some thoughts, and made a move to fan and talk to Liu Bei.

"The two countries of Wei and Tang are united, there are millions of people, if we fight alone, it is undoubtedly a mantis arm blocking the car and killing ourselves. The so-called lips are dead and the teeth are cold, but if the lord is defeated, it will be difficult for Dongwu to protect. There must be action in Dongwu. At present, you can wait for Dongwu to come to Sichuan, see how Sun Zhongmou plans, and then make a final conclusion. ”

Liu Bei frowned when he heard this. But seeing that Zhuge Liang was not in a hurry or impatient, and seemed to have won the amount, he promised first. A few days later, as Zhuge Liang expected, Zhuge Jin rushed to Chengdu to visit. Liu Bei then ordered the strategists to take Zhuge Jin into the city to meet him. After the ceremony, Liu Bei treated Zhuge Jin with a guest and sat down at the table. Zhuge Jin first presented Sun Quan's documents, Liu Bei opened the book and looked at it, his face changed instantly, his brows were deeply locked, and he shouted in a condensed voice.

"What does King Wu mean by this!?"

Seeing Liu Bei's face like this, the strategists under the table didn't know what to do, only Zhuge Liang had a smile on his face. Zhuge Jin stood up and bowed, and said.

"Uncle Huang is a relative of the Han family, and benevolence and righteousness are full of the four seas, and now he has won the land of Xichuan and Jingxiang, and he should be the king of Shu. The king of my family sent a book to Luoyang, and the performance was today's son. I also hope that Uncle Huang will not live up to King Wu's wishes. ”

Liu Bei's eyes opened suddenly, his heart was beating non-stop, but he still suppressed his vigorous ambition and shouted.

"King Wu has to be trapped in unkindness and injustice!? Although it is the clan of the Han Dynasty, it should be its own responsibility to support the Han family, if it is for this matter, it is anti-Han. How dare you do that! Don't mention this again!! ”

Seeing this, Zhuge Jin frowned, and when he wanted to say more, Liu Bei got up and retreated into the back hall. Before the strategists at the table could react, Zhuge Liang talked and laughed freely, made amends to his brother Zhuge Jin first, and then ordered Zhuge Jin to be placed in the post house first. Subsequently, Zhuge Liang and Fa Zheng, Huang Quan and others whispered for a while, and everyone changed their complexion when they heard the words. That night, Zhuge Liang gathered a crowd of civil and military personnel in his mansion and talked secretly all night.

The next day, Zhuge Liang personally followed Fazheng, Zhang Fei and other civil and military personnel to see Liu Bei and saluted.

"Fang Jin Cao Cao is autocratic, the Son of Heaven is like a puppet, when the Northwest Wen is extraordinary, Jiangdong Sun Zhongmou has claimed the throne, and the authority of the Han family has been lost. The country is no longer a country. The people of the world have no owner, the lord has always been benevolent and righteous in the world, but also has the Han blood, now has the land of Xichuan and Jingxiang, should be enthroned as the king of Shu, the name is right, in order to please the thief. ”

When Liu Bei heard this, his face changed, and he shook his head and shouted.

"Sun Zhongmou's performance of me as the king of Shu is really ill-intentioned. I have been called a thief against the country. The military advisor is very intelligent, how can you not see his evil intentions!? ”

Zhuge Liang smiled when he heard this, and stroked the goose feather fan in his hand.

"The lord is wrong in his words. Sun Zhongmou really wanted to be good with the lord, and the court was really a show of goodwill. As for the matter of the lord being the king of Shu, our courtiers have long had this intention. But I am afraid that the lord does not want to. Now is the time, Fang dares to say. ”

As soon as Zhuge Liang's words fell, a group of civil and military forces behind him opened their mouths one after another to express their hearts. When Liu Bei heard this, his face sank, and he was hesitant. Zhuge Liang then opened his mouth and said.

"If Fang fell apart today, Cao Cao ascended the throne of Wei as early as the Central Plains a few years ago, and at that time, the Western Tang Dynasty and Eastern Wu also established the country one after another. Wei, Tang, and Wu, each dominating one side, and the military generals under their command were all rewarded, and the people's hearts were shocked. The lord can know that the reason why the ministers sacrifice their lives and live to do things for the above is that they want to climb the dragon and attach the phoenix, establish fame, and be admired by future generations. Now, only the lord has not yet established a king, if the lord avoids suspicion and righteousness, the people's hearts will be relieved. I hope the lord will think twice. ”

Liu Bei frowned, but still shook his head.

"It's a big deal, but it needs to be considered in the long run."

As soon as Liu Bei's voice fell, all the ministers knelt down and asked. Zhang Fei widened his eyes and shouted.

"Whoever has a different surname, each is called king. What's more, my brother is a sect of the Han Dynasty! Don't say that it is the king of Shu, even if he is called the emperor, why not!! ”

When Liu Bei heard this, his eyes were stunned, and he shouted loudly and told him to stop. At this moment, Zhuge Liang said in a condensed voice.

"Sun Zhongmou played the lord as the king of Shu, if the lord refused, Sun Zhongmou would think that the lord had no intention of alliing with him, and then he was wary of the lord. Forced by the current situation, if we don't form an alliance with Soochow, sooner or later we will be broken by Wei and Tang. I also hope that the lord will focus on the overall situation. ”

When Liu Bei heard this, his face was calm, and he said in a condensed voice.

According to Kong Ming. As the king of Shu, it is necessary to prepare for it!? ”

"The lord ascended the throne of Shu. One can appease the public's expectations and shake the hearts of Jingxiang and Xichuan soldiers and civilians. Second, Sun Zhongmou can also have no worries and form an alliance with us to fight against the Wei and Tang dynasties. This is actually a trend, the destiny of heaven and the will, how can the lord reverse it? ”

Zhuge Liang's eyes shimmered, and the words were loud. A group of civil and military officers persuaded in unison. Liu Bei repeatedly refused, so he had to agree, and the ministers were overjoyed and prepared to ascend the throne. Then Liu Bei summoned Zhuge Jin to see him, and first thanked Sun Quan, the king of Wu, for his performance, and Zhuge Jin saw that Liu Bei was willing to ascend the throne as the king of Shu, and said that the alliance between the two countries was about it. Liu Bei agreed immediately, and asked Zhuge Jin to stay and watch the ceremony. Zhuge Jin did not shirk. In January of the spring of that year, Liu Bei ordered people to build an altar in Chuyang, with a radius of nine miles, distributed in five directions, and each set up a flag guard of honor. The ministers are all in order. Huang Quan and Fa Zheng invited Liu Bei to ascend the altar, enter the crown and seal, sit facing south, and be congratulated by civil and military officials as the king of Shu. Liu Bei stood on the altar, and then set the country as Shu, and his son Liu Chan was established as the prince of the king. Feng Zhuge Liang was appointed prime minister, and the prime minister was a major military matter. Huang Quan is Taifu, Fa Zheng is Shang Shuling, Kuai Yue is Taichang, Kuai Liang is Da Sima, and Ma Liang is Xiangyang Taishou. He also named Pan Feng, Zhang Fei, Tai Shici, Ma Chao, and Hua Xiong as the five tiger generals. The rest are to be knighted for meritorious service. After the reward was decided, Liu Bei made a declaration to the ministers and sergeants on the altar.

"Beiben is white, fortunately there is the kindness of the court, with the talent of the minister, the appointment of the general, the governor of the three armies, and the resignation of the outside. However, he has a meager body, and he can't sweep away the martyrdom, and the Jingkuang royal family has long made the Son of Heaven suffer from the evil thief. Within Liuhe, if not, the ambitious generation, each with one side. Be prepared to worry about the country all day long, but worry about the opposite side, and be heartbroken.

In the past, Dong Zhuo made trouble, and since then, thieves have been rampant and ruined. Cao, Wen, Yuan and other ministers in troubled times took advantage of the situation to seize the imperial land. Fortunately, with the help of Liu Jingzhou, the reserve was originally to hold the territory and resist foreign enemies, so as to seek an opportunity to eradicate Cao Cao and save the Son of Heaven. The sky is unfair, Liu Jingzhou's hero died early, and he entrusted Jingzhou and Bei. Although he is talented, he does not dare to forget his courtiers.

The emperor has been passed down from generation to generation, this way is not wasted, in the past, the ancestor Longxing, the younger brother of the prince, the nine kingdoms of the Great Apocalypse, the death of Zhu Lu, to the peace of the great sect.

Today, the thieves are arrogant, harboring evil intentions, and Cao Cao, stealing the country and usurping the throne has long been revealed. Since the clan is weak, the emperor has no position, considering the ancient style, preparing according to the expectations of the public, since ascending to the king of Shu, it is really created for the trend. The Mandate of Heaven is hopeful, and it is not necessary to disobey it, when the rate is all righteous, and when the sky is good, it is better to be in the community. This heart can be learned! ”

Liu Bei played heaven and earth, hundreds of officials knelt down, played music in unison, and officially ascended the throne. Liu Bei was the king of Shu, and the people's hearts were shocked, Pan Feng and Ma Chao sent congratulatory reports from Jingzhou and the barbarian realm, and sent people to send heavy gifts as a court. Liu Bei set up a banquet in Chengdu, and the army and the people enjoyed together for several days. After the banquet, Zhuge Jin returned to Soochow.

Sun Quan was overjoyed to learn that Liu Bei was the king of Shu and should be the alliance between the two countries. Sun Quan then ordered Zhou Yu, Lu Su and other ministers to step up the training of soldiers and horses, and prepare ordnance and baggage to prepare for war. At the same time, Liu Bei was called the king, and also taught Zhuge Liang and Pan Feng to step up preparations for war, and also taught people to spread the message to the barbarian realm, and ordered Ma Chao to unite various tribes in the southern barbarians to respond at any time. Let's say that after Ma Chao entered the barbarian realm with Mrs. Zhurong, within two years, he was cautious and cautious, calmed down the chaos in the barbarian realm, and secretly excluded dissidents. Mrs. Zhurong is extremely convinced of Ma Chao, and Ma Chao is extremely brave, and the barbarian realm can be quickly stabilized, thanks to his attack. Ma Chao fought in all directions, invincible and invincible. The name of Ma Chao is a powerful barbarian realm, and no one is angry with its might. At that time, Liu Bei ascended the throne of Shu, and the barbarians were all shocked when they learned about it. Mrs. Zhurong saw the opportunity to arrive, so she announced that each tribe would choose an auspicious time to marry Ma Chao. The chiefs of all the tribes in the barbarian realm were all afraid of Ma Chao's courage and the strength of the Shu Kingdom, and they dared to be angry without saying anything. Soon after the marriage of the two, Mrs. Zhurong overrode public opinion and helped Ma Chao ascend to the throne of the barbarian king. So far, the realm of the Southern Barbarians is all used by Ma Chao.

Let's say that Cao Cao was furious when he learned that Sun Quan and Liu Bei had proclaimed themselves kings, and soon heard about the alliance between Wu and Shu. Cao Cao was even more angry, and immediately ordered all the generals under his command to prepare troops and horses, and wanted to raise a national army to conquer Jingzhou. At the same time, Cao Cao sent people to Chang'an to teach Wenhan to march from Sichuan and attack Xichuan.

But it was said that it was the Lantern Festival. In Chang'an City, the people put up lights on all the alleys and roads to celebrate the Lantern Festival. The officials of the Wenhan Conference held a night banquet in the palace. Three years have passed since the Battle of Xichuan. Wen Han will meet with the officials and talk about the collection of Sichuan. Suddenly, a soldier hurried over and whispered a few words in Xu Huang's ear. When Xu Huang heard this, his face sank, and he shot out two rays of light in an instant, and secretly threw a look at Wen Han, Wen Han frowned, and then motioned for Xu Huang to go away. Xu Huang then left the banquet and turned into a place in the palace, and when a whistle sounded, hundreds of black shadows flew from all directions, like flying kites. Xu Huang's face was dark, and he said coldly to everyone.

"There are a lot of spies infiltrating the city tonight, so you can disperse into the city and capture all the suspicious people you see. If not, he will be killed. You wait and act and be hidden, don't disturb King Tang's Yaxing!! ”

And the hundreds of people in front of Xu Huang were the subordinates that Wen Han had carefully built more than ten years ago. These people are all orphans, who have been taken in by Wen Han since they were children and trained since childhood. There were 3,000 people in total, and they were called 'flying kites'. These people are all proficient in the way of assassination, and they are all extremely agile, and they are also good at detecting intelligence, Wen Han is using the training methods of later spies, after nearly ten years, to create. In the flying kite, according to the strength, it is divided into three branches: A, B, and C. Class C people are scattered all over the world to find information, and Class B people are responsible for assassination. Some of the first-class people committed assassinations, and some of them stayed in Chang'an, secretly protecting Wenhan and various important officials. At the moment, all in front of Xu Huang were Class A flying kites. As Xu Huang's order fell, hundreds of Grade A flying kites instantly dispersed, like a phantom of flying smoke, and disappeared in an instant.
