The Han River, flowing from west to east through Fancheng, Xinye, and Xiangyang, turned around and flowed south around Xiangyang to Hankou, that is, the Wuhan area in later generations to join the Yangtze River. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

This river is actually the barrier of Xiangyang, and the later Song Dynasty resisted the exploits of the violent yuan.

Later in the day, on the edge of the Han River southeast of Xinye, more than a dozen riders arrived in a hurry.

It looks like the head of the line is a soldier, but all of them are in tattered clothes, gray heads, covered in blood, and embarrassed.

These people are none other than Zhuge Liang and others who escaped by luck.

Zhuge Liang's cart was also wooden, riding a thin horse.

Kong Ming's military division now wants to die, "It seems that I underestimated Qin Zijin, and he really released water upstream, if it weren't for the generals' hard work, my life would have rested." ”

After Zhang Fei, Wen Ping, Li Yan and the others heard it, they didn't turn their backs.

Zhuge Liang pulled off the towel and wiped his sweat, and suddenly saw his own boat on the shore, he breathed a sigh of relief and said, "This is the boat I reserved before, everyone hurry up and get on the boat." ”

To say that there is still such preparation, the generals admire the prudence of the military division.

Now that there is a boat and escape is in sight, everyone beckons to the boat.

Zhuge Liang looked north, and saw the yellow dust flying, he shook the feather fan lightly, and sneered, "Hmph......." ”

As he was saying two sentences, who knew that the crowd would put their hairs upside down, hug up, cover their mouths, and put Zhuge Liang to the ground.

"What are you doing!" Zhuge Liang exclaimed in surprise.

Everyone felt that the military advisor was a little 'mutated', and he always said something he didn't understand at all before speaking.

Li Yan said anxiously: "Strategist, you can't laugh anymore, your subordinates really can't stand this." ”

Zhang Fei was more direct, "Kong Ming, if you smile, Qin Zijin's ambush will come, if you smile, he will come, and when you smile, don't laugh." ”

Zhuge Liang suddenly trembled, and his face turned pale. He secretly swore that this was the last time, "Next time, I will never be defeated!" He waved his feather fan hard.

The boats in the river were talking about docking, and when they saw Zhuge Liang being put down by the generals, they shouted in unison, "Rebellion!" "Sail and run.

The generals jumped for a while, and the soldiers on the boat knew that it was not a rebellion.

So, Zhuge Liang's army of 50,000, only a dozen people remained, so they crossed the river together and went to Xiangyang.

The next day.

Zhuge Liang entered Xiangyang City.

"Look, isn't this a 'naval division'?" Because Liu Bei often shouted that Zhuge Liang was water, like a fish in water, the people called Zhuge Liang a naval division below.

"Why are these people back, soldiers?"

"You don't know? The naval division was defeated, and the king of Qin added a handful of fire and water, and the 50,000 army was wiped out. ”

"Ha, this naval division is really watery."

At this point, the people of Jingzhou are all calling for water military divisions.

Zhuge Liang's forehead was bruised, and he couldn't wait to tear the mouths of these Diao people, "There are always Diao people who harm their own military divisions." He hurriedly covered his face with a feather fan and ran to the palace.

Less.

Inside the government.

Liu Bei looked shocked and furious, but he finally held back. Instead, he comforted Zhuge Liang, fanned his big ears, and said, "Strategist, every time you say a good strategy, it's too much for me to think." Jiangdong can be subverted, and every time the strategy is very mysterious, but why can't it be done every time he comes to Qin Feng? ”

Zhuge Liang shook the feather fan urgently, and the fan's face turned blue.

The generals were still considerate and said: "Lord Qiqi, the non-military advisor is incompetent, it is really Qin Zijin who is too cunning." At that time, Xinye did not catch fire, and the Qin army went to chase the lord early in the morning, and only a few troops guarded Xinye. The military division ambushed 50,000 soldiers and horses outside, and it was for this reason that he left a backhand, and when he saw a rare opportunity, he said that the capture of Xinye cut off Qin Feng's back road. ”

"In addition, the Qin army is gone, and the military division also intends to go to Xinye to have a look, why didn't there catch fire."

Liu Bei nodded, "That makes sense, what about later?" ”

"Later ......." Wen hired them to take into account Zhuge Liang's appearance, and he was reluctant to say what he looked like.

Zhang Fei said: "Big brother, don't you know, as soon as the military advisor entered, good guy, the previous arrangement was immediately on fire, and it was all set on fire by the Qin army's ambush." ”

Liu Bei had angina pectoris, he immediately understood, don't say anything in his heart, this must have been discovered by Qin Feng, he hindered Zhuge Liang from igniting the fire, but instead burned Zhuge Liang with a fire.

"Sure enough, it's Qin Zijin's bad move!" Liu Bei fanned his ears and comforted: "Military advisor, victory and defeat are common things in soldiers, you don't have to worry, just be angry and strong in the future, and turn defeat into victory." ”

Zhuge Liang's ability is obvious to all, and Liu Bei said again: "Qin Zijin's thing has known that he is cunning since I first met him. Military advisor, if you want to win Qin Zijin, you have to be more cunning than Qin Zijin. ”

Zhuge Liang slapped the fan violently, and felt that he was really sorry for Liu Bei's trust, and made amends, "Please punish the lord." ”

Liu Beixin said that if I punish you, I will have no military advisor, so he said: "Where is this military advisor, we will work together to revive the Han dynasty and deal with Qin Zijin, and we still need a military advisor to preside over the overall situation." ”

Now it seems that presiding over such an overall situation is not as simple as blowing.

"Report to ......, the envoy of Eastern Wu, Lu Fan, asks to see you."

After a while, Lu Fan arrived and sent Sun Quan's letter.

Liu Bei opened it and looked at it carefully with Zhuge Liang. The letter roughly means: Soochow contained the Jiangnan fleet of the Qin army, and lost more than ten warships every day, which blocked the Qin fleet. The soldiers and horses of Soochow were also trying to land on the north shore, and there were many losses every day. Sun Quan emphasized the importance of the alliance against Qin Feng, and pointed out that in the process of fighting Qin Feng, Eastern Wu paid a huge price.

In the end, Sun Quan hoped that Liu Bei would make a breakthrough in Jingzhou, and if he could defeat Qin Feng, he would be able to sound the horn of the entire Northern Expedition.

Liu Bei glanced at Zhuge Liang.

Zhuge Liang said: "Dongwu is a model for my Southern Alliance, and it has restrained the Qin army, and it is indispensable, and my Jingzhou army will definitely go all out to fight against the tyrannical Qin!" ”

Liu Bei got up and asked Lu Fan to convey his respect for Sun Quan, and Lu Fan completed his mission and retired.

In the current situation, in the Yugoslav Federation, the Eastern Wu Navy is the strongest, and it has restrained the Qin Army's Naval Division. In terms of the army, the Jingzhou army still needs to make a breakthrough.

Liu Bei said anxiously: "Qin Zijin has three battleships, and his strength is strong, and Dongwu can't withstand it for too long." It also needs the military advisor to come up with an idea to defeat Qin Feng on land. ”

Zhuge Liang shook his fan and said, "First pass on the order of the second general to strictly guard Fancheng, as long as Fancheng is held, the Qin army will not dare to cross the river." Didn't the reinforcements from Shuzhong arrive, so let Zhang Song and others take 50,000 Shu troops to Fancheng to support the second general. ”

Liu Bei said: "You still need helpers, you can send Li Yan and General Wenpin to help." ”

So, after the fiasco of Xinye, Liu Bei and Zhuge Liang made certain strategic deployments.
