The fall of Linjiang had a great impact on the Shu army, because from then on the Jiangdong army was able to drive straight into Chengdu and further threaten Chengdu, which was a major event that shook its foundation.

At this time, Liu Bei was feasting guests and friends in the Yizhou Pastoral Mansion in Chengdu City, and today is the fifth birthday of his son Liu Chan, who is smart and smart, and his body is also very healthy, and he is already five feet tall.

Although he is young, Liu Chan is very disciplined under the education of etiquette, and treats people like a little adult, which is praiseworthy.

"Haha, lord, although the son is young, he is so smart and calm, it's really rare."

"Yes, yes, the lower officials also heard that Gongzi has the ability to remember and memorize the Analects at a young age, which is really a blessing for the Han family."

"Needless to say? Don't you look at what kind of hero the lord is? This is the crown of the glorious Han family! ”

"This son is extraordinary, he will become a great weapon in the future, even if it is Liu He in the future, he will definitely be able to surpass ......" The official suddenly realized that he had said something he shouldn't have said, and suddenly stopped talking about it.

Liu Bei didn't have any reaction to such words, of course he pretended not to hear it, so as not to embarrass the official, and on the other hand, why didn't he think so too? This son of mine is very smart, has a calm temperament, and has a strong body, I believe that even if he surpasses Liu He in the future, it will definitely not be difficult.

However, at this moment, I saw Ma Zhong, the general of his own army, break in and come to Liu Bei with a sad face.

"What's wrong?" Seeing this appearance, Liu Bei asked suspiciously.

"This ......" Although Ma Zhong wanted to say, he looked at the guests around him and did not speak.

When Liu Bei saw this scene, he suddenly had a bad premonition in his heart, and hurriedly walked out of the hall and motioned for Ma Zhong to follow.

"What the hell is going on?" Liu Bei and Ma Zhong came to a no-man's land, and they couldn't help but ask as soon as they got there.

"Lord, news came from the front, Fa Xiaozhi suddenly fell seriously ill three days ago, died, last night General Zhang because of the nostalgia of Fa Xiaozhi, depressed drank some spirits, but unexpectedly Zhou Yu suddenly launched a fire attack, and took the opportunity to attack the city, General Zhang was drunk and unable to fight, so he had to abandon the city and leave......"

"What? Fa Xiaozhi is dead? Linjiang City lost? Hearing the news, Liu Bei's face suddenly turned pale, and soon after, he spurted out a mouthful of blood, and then said with tears: "Filial piety, filial piety, how can you leave me at this time?" ”

"Lord, lord......" Seeing Liu Bei vomiting blood, Ma Zhong immediately panicked, and hurriedly helped Liu Bei, and at the same time shouted loudly to ask them to go to the doctor quickly.

Liu Bei hurriedly waved his hand to stop it, and then said with a wry smile: "You can't die, you don't have to alarm everyone." Don't make a fuss about this matter first, I'll go to the hall first, today's banquet will be held as usual, you quickly go and invite Wu Yi to come over and let him wait in the side hall. ”

Liu Bei knew that he had to block the news at this time, otherwise, once the army was in turmoil, he would definitely be defeated, and he would not even be able to hold Chengdu.

It was not until after the banquet that Liu Bei rushed to the side hall and hurriedly told Wu Yi about the death of Fa Zheng and the fall of Linjiang, and then ordered Wu Yi to lead 20,000 soldiers and horses in the city to meet Zhang Fei, and solemnly told him that he must not make a mistake: "Our army has lost a law filial piety, but we must not lose my third brother again, no matter what price you pay, even if you fill in the 20,000 troops, you must take Yide back." ”

After that, Liu Bei ordered his son Liu Feng to lead the army to defend Jiangzhou, with Zhang Song as his military advisor, and at the same time urgently transferred Guan Yu and Zhuge Liang back to Chengdu, because in his opinion, only these two people had the ability to defeat Zhou Yu.

"Alas, Yun Chang and Kong Ming come back, I'm afraid that the southern counties will no longer be able to keep it, the situation is relatively stable, I rely on the country of abundance, although it is hard for the time being, and finally it will be able to drag the enemy army to retreat, but now Fa Xiaozhi is dead, there is no strong military division on the eastern front, Linjiang has fallen, the situation is out of balance, once there is another change, even the entire Ba County can not be saved, I can't take such a risk, I can still maintain it if I lose the southern Xinjiang, but if I lose Ba County, I will face the threat of Zhou Yu'er at any time, and it is obvious which is more important, and now I can only avoid the serious. ”

Liu Bei's heart was full of helplessness, and he sighed softly: "The third brother is always drinking and making mistakes, and he can't be reused at all, and now there is a lack of good generals in the army, and there is only one second brother available, but it's a pity that I didn't listen to dissuasion last time and led the army to conquer Sun Quan, but the result was a loss of generals, Fu Wei, Sha Moke, Feng Xi, and Zhang Nan all died in battle, so that the talents in our army withered, otherwise, how can we be so helpless to Zhou Yuxiao'er, who only commanded 30,000 people?" God, since you were able to give me the opportunity to win the foundation of Yizhou, and since you were sure that I was the one of destiny, why did you let me suffer such a defeat? ”

Liu Bei was full of resentment, resentful of the injustice of the sky, let him suffer such a big setback, let so many talents leave him, if Fa Zheng is still alive, if Chen Deng is still alive, then he will definitely not have today's end.

Fortunately, under Wu Yi's response, Zhang Fei returned to Chengdu smoothly, but at this time Zhang Fei no longer had the previous pride, he came to Liu Bei's official residence, remorseful, knelt at Liu Bei's feet, and begged Liu Bei to kill him to correct military justice.

However, Zhang Fei is one of the few fierce generals in Liu Bei's army after all, and he has been a brother with Liu Bei for many years, how can he be able to do it? So Liu Bei spared Zhang Fei's life, and at the same time changed Zhang Fei to be the county guard of the Shu army and put him in charge of the guards in Chengdu.

Half a month later, Guan Yu and Zhuge Liang returned to Chengdu quickly, at this time they saw Liu Bei was already two temples, which made the two of them feel greatly shocked, the last time they left, Liu Bei was still full of green silk, but this time they met with two temples, which shows how sad Liu Bei is?

"Big brother!" Seeing the changes in Liu Bei's face before and after, Guan Yu burst into tears, gritted his teeth and said, "Where is the third brother?" It was all because he was greedy and mistaken and caused such a trouble, I want to teach him a good lesson, so that he can resolutely change this lesson! ”

At this time, Zhang Fei was full of shame, he had been hiding in his home for many days and did not dare to see people, and now that Guan Yu was back, he also had to go to the city gate to greet him, but he also kept his head down, hiding in the crowd and not daring to look at Liu Bei, until this moment he saw Liu Bei's temples, he slapped himself a few times, and secretly made up his mind to keep this lesson in mind and never drink again in this life!

Liu Bei sighed softly: "It's not about the third brother, alas, everything is providential, it seems that I was deceived by Zuo Ci's old way, and I believed in myself too much, now that I think about it, the preparation is really a little self-sufficient, and now I don't ask for anything else, and I will be content to keep the northern part of Yizhou." ”

"Why is the lord so arrogant? The lord is suffering now, but Zhou Yu is only, although Liang is not talented, he is willing to go for a while, and he will definitely let him return with hatred. Zhuge Liang saw that Liu Bei's words were very gloomy, and his ambition was gone, so he was suddenly a little anxious, and hurriedly stepped forward and said loudly.
