Chapter 41 Enemies on all sides, the government and the opposition are shaken
"Bo Yan, you said that Cao Pixing will attack Shu, can Shu win?" After Deng Zhi left, there were only Sun Quan and Lu Xun in the hall, and Sun Quan immediately spoke.
"It's hard to say, this time Cao Pi wants to attack Shu on the fifth road, although there is less army of my Eastern Wu, but there are still 400,000 people in the other four roads, I am afraid that it will be difficult to resist in Shu, after all, according to the estimates of the minister, it would be good if there were 60,000 or 70,000 soldiers in Shuzhong now."
"Sixty or seventy thousand people against an army of four hundred thousand, and they are still being attacked on all sides, can you win it if you change it?" Thinking about it carefully, Sun Quan was also a little puzzled.
"The minister will definitely be defeated!" Lu Xun didn't even think about it.
"Then Shu is afraid that it will be difficult to defeat Cao Pi." Sun Quan smiled bitterly.
"Nope! If it was before, the minister also thought that Shu Han would be defeated, and even had the worry of destruction. But just now I listened to Deng Zhi's analysis of this, Shu Han does have the time, place, and people, if you change to a minister and others, this time it is not enough to recover the disadvantage in numbers, so the minister will be defeated, but at this time it is Zhuge Kongming who is sitting in Shu Han, Deng Zhi can analyze this, how can he be bad, and this person is like a god with soldiers, and he knows the way of Qimen Dunjia, there is no chance. ”
"According to the minister's opinion, I am afraid that the victory or defeat is five or five." Lu Xun estimated.
Hearing this, Sun Quan also pondered for a long time before he spoke: "Bo Yan, in this case, what should we do next?" ”
"Your Majesty, what Deng Zhi said, there is one thing that is still very right, that is, whether it is Shu or my Eastern Wu, it is difficult to resist Cao Wei by relying on one side alone, and this dispute between Shu and Wei, if Shu wins, my Eastern Wu will re-ally with it, and I can protect myself, if Wei wins, Shu may be in danger of perishing, and then my Eastern Wu will need to make another plan!"
"If Wei wins, I, Eastern Wu, need to send a force of troops and horses to the west to resist Cao Wei's army with Li Yan, and if necessary, we can take the opportunity to seize Yong'an and Jiangzhou; and ordered Zhou Tai, Han Dang, and Zhuge Jin to lead 40,000 soldiers and horses in Jiangling, and Zhu Ran to lead 30,000 soldiers in Jiangxia to attack Fancheng and force Xiangyang; Ling Tong led the army out of the Lujiang River and attacked Weixu; Tai Shiheng and Wang Dian crossed the river from Qu'a Gang to attack the Jiangdu, and then waited for the opportunity to seize Shouchun! ”
"Bo Yan, are my Dongwu soldiers and horses enough?" Hearing Lu Xun's strategy, Sun Quan was a little confused.
"Your Majesty, if Shu is dead, a few years later, when Wei stabilizes Shuzhong, and then send troops to cooperate with the troops of the Central Plains, advance on both sides, and fight a decisive battle with our army in Jingzhou, at that time, our army has almost no chance of winning! Therefore, when Shu was defeated, we needed to decisively send troops, send people to drag Cao Xiu, beat him for a time difference, and seek more benefits for our army. Of course, if Shu can survive this crisis, it will naturally be a good thing for my Dongwu. Lu Xun said lightly.
"Bo Yan, there is a feeling that the future unifier is afraid that it will be the north..."Sun Quan suddenly said a little melancholy.
Hearing this, a certain string in Lu Xun's heart seemed to be aroused, and he suddenly fell silent, and he himself knew that although Dongwu had nearly three continents and a vast land area, it had a small population and cultivated land, which was far inferior to the prosperous areas of Jizhou and Yizhou; Although there is the danger of the Yangtze River, it is subject to the terrain, and everything is inconvenient; Although there are powerful sailors, there is no iron horse that can dominate the Central Plains, and it is really too difficult to seek the Central Plains and dominate the world, too difficult...
Compared with the sorrow of King Wu's palace, a simple carriage was hurriedly driving out of the palace at this time, galloping on Jianye Avenue.
"Ah Jiu, you go back to the embassy immediately, pack your luggage, and rush to the city gate, we will gather there, and then hurry back to Shuzhong, if the news of Dongwu is accurate, now my Shu Han is in danger!" Deng Zhi squatted at the entrance of the carriage and anxiously ordered, out of the Wu Palace, the previous calmness and composure were long gone, and the only thing left was anxiety and worry, after all, it was an army of 400,000!
CD City, Royal Palace.
With the support of Kong Ming, the revised new policy is gradually being implemented, and the construction of the Juxian Pavilion has also begun, and this ancient city is radiating a new atmosphere that is different from the past. It is precisely because of the implementation of the new policy and the construction of the Juxian Pavilion that the affairs of the DPRK and China are becoming more and more onerous, and the officials are becoming more and more busy, resulting in the fact that it is past noon, but the early dynasty has not dispersed, Liu Chan sat on the Luan seat, listened carefully to the progress reports of all parties, and raised questions or opinions from time to time, after all, in his eyes, this is a major event related to the future of Shu Han!
Most of the ministers in the court are old ministers, and they are all people who have followed the first emperor Liu Bei and received his favor, seeing Liu Chan's diligence, they are naturally happy in their hearts, and the communication between the monarch and the minister gradually increased, and the ministers began to gradually break away from the influence of the first emperor, and have a certain sense of belonging and recognition to Liu Chan.
And at this moment, several long shouts broke this thriving beauty.
"Report! The barbarian king Meng was rebelled, raised 100,000 troops to attack my Nanzhong, and the cities in Nanzhong were in an emergency! ”
"Report! Kebi Neng personally led 100,000 troops to attack my Xiping Pass, and Xiping Pass was in an emergency! ”
"Report! The rebel general Meng Dati 100,000 soldiers went out to Shangyong and attacked my Hanzhong! ”
"Report! Cao Zhen personally led a large army to commit my Yangping Pass, with no less than 100,000 soldiers and horses! ”
The four heralds knelt in the main hall one after another, reporting anxiously.
Hearing this, all the ministers in the court were shocked, and they couldn't help talking about each other, and they forgot for a moment that this was above the court. At this time, in the hall, only three people were still able to keep calm, that is, Liu Chan, Huang Hao, and Xiang Pet, because they knew about it in advance, Xiang Pet and Huang Hao only flashed a trace of surprise, and then returned to normal, but there was a hint of awe in their eyes when they looked at Liu Chan.
As for Kong Ming, he said that he was sick and did not come to the court the next day.
"400,000 troops, how can this be resisted?"
"Coming from all directions, where did I get so many soldiers and horses deployed in Shu?"
"How's that good?"
"At the critical moment, the prime minister is sick, is it providence?"
"No, I'm going to see the prime minister later, which of you will go with me?"
"The prime minister is sick, isn't it okay to bother rashly?"
"The great cause is in danger, only the prime minister can save it, presumably the prime minister will understand!"
......
Since the military situation came from the heralds, Liu Chan has not said a word so far, just silently looked at the flustered ministers in the court, looking at their words, manners, and demeanor, perhaps at this moment, it is the most diverse and exciting.
When the crisis came, the first thing they thought of was Zhuge Kongming, and even his majesty was left aside, in other words, Liu Chan, the emperor, was really a failure. Thinking of this, the corners of Liu Chan's mouth couldn't help but lift slightly, revealing an evil smile that was enough to fascinate thousands of girls, which was also a bitter smile.
And although this scene was not seen by everyone, there were also a few people who saw it unintentionally or intentionally, and their thoughts suddenly ran wild in their hearts.
At this time, the court was no different from the market, if it weren't for the official palace, wearing a pipe hat, and holding a board in his hand, reminding them where this was, they would have already left the place and made a mess. But Rao is like this, Liu Chan is not angry, this scene is what he thought of before, after all, the military situation is too shocking, I think when he told the few people in the know, even Kong Ming was flustered for a moment.
At this point, the court meeting could no longer go on, Liu Chan immediately stood up and glanced at everyone again, especially the few people who noticed him.
"Today's court meeting ends here, please retreat!"
Hearing this, the ministers only symbolically bowed to Liu Chan, and then put on their shoes and boots, and left in a hurry, and tonight, I am afraid that many people will not sleep well.
