Chapter 67 Retreat and make peace
Retreat and make peace
Liu Bei seems to have been brought into a world set by himself by Zhuge Qiao, and Liu Bei saw in a trance that the strength and prosperity of the Han Dynasty in the past made all foreign races and foreign countries submit; Gritted his teeth, clenched his fists, and silently recited: I must reproduce my Han Dynasty.
Zhuge Qiao looked at Liu Bei's expression, and also understood that this hero had been brought into his own world by his own words, an era that made all the people of the Han Dynasty feel their blood swelling and full of longing.
After thinking for a while, Liu Bei regained his consciousness again, but he felt both familiar and unfamiliar in front of Zhuge Qiao in front of him. Zhuge Liang once gave Liu Bei the hope of dominating the world in Longzhong, but now Zhuge Qiao gave Liu Bei the choice to revive the Han Dynasty; But Liu Bei couldn't guess why Zhuge Qiao could have such a talent, if it was taught by Zhuge Liang, but it was not the same as his caution.
"Back to Your Majesty; In the end, he learned from the ancients, took history as his teacher, and fortunately there were many ancient books at home, and he learned some skins" In a flash of inspiration, Zhuge Qiao immediately moved out of the ancients to confuse. He didn't expect Liu Bei to ask him, who did he study from, he could have said that his cheap father Zhuge Liang, but when he thought about it, he was busy with official duties every day and didn't teach much of his studies, and he was afraid that it would be difficult to lie.
Liu Bei's straightforward Zhuge Qiao figured out what he said about learning from the ancients and taking history as a teacher, and looked at Zhuge Qiao carefully; "A good teacher from the ancients and a teacher from history; You stand down first, let me be quiet," Liu Bei said slowly, seemingly with a hint of tangled tone.
"The last general will retire," Zhuge Qiao clasped his fists and saluted; When he looked up, he quickly stared at Liu Bei, and found that he was facing the bookshelf at the moment, standing motionless, seeing this lonely and slightly old figure, probably pondering how Shu Han should choose in the future.
Walking out of Liu Bei's study, Zhuge Qiao walked towards the bazaar of Yaoting City alone, rushing by himself before, and did not have time to feel the style of this city at all.
Next; Just after the morning meal, a soldier in the uniform of the Imperial Forest Army hurriedly came to Zhuge Qiao's house, "Zhuge Guard, Your Majesty has summoned all the generals to discuss the matter and also summoned you to go." The soldier hurriedly gave the order, and his attitude was extremely respectful.
"Got it, I'll go right away," Zhuge Qiao responded; It seems that His Majesty has made a decision, Zhuge Qiao pondered.
A stick of incense time Zhuge Qiao hurriedly came to the hall of the mansion where Liu Bei lived, and there were several people standing in the hall, all discussing something with each other, no need to guess why His Majesty summoned all the generals and ministers this time, there must be important things to discuss, but there is no news that can be referred to at all.
At the moment when Zhuge Qiao had just stepped into the hall, the rest of the people immediately turned their eyes, because Zhuge Qiao's name had already spread throughout the three armies at this time; Although he had seen his martial arts when he returned to the city, he felt so unbelievable in the face of his outstanding military exploits on the battlefield of Jingzhou, and he also felt inexplicably strange;
"Congratulations to Zhuge Guard for his first great contribution to the defeat of Wu, and he really deserves to be the son of the prime minister" At this time when everyone looked at Zhuge Qiao, Ma Liang stood up and spoke.
Zhuge Qiao also looked at the person in front of him carefully, and he had seen it before when he returned to Zigui, so he was not a stranger; It's just that Ma Liang gave him a sense of intimacy, after all, in the textbooks of the elementary school in his previous life, the text of Ma Liang's magic pen was still spinning in his mind, and a child with a magic pen appeared in front of him.
"The clerk is serious, this first major achievement is the credit of His Majesty's royal conquest, if it weren't for His Majesty's royal conquest, how could this city be captured if it weren't for His Majesty's royal conquest soldiers, who could sacrifice their lives and die in vain," Zhuge Qiao responded;
Listening to his humble answer, the surrounding generals and ministers were also relieved, if Zhuge Qiao bit his share of military exploits, the rest of the generals would only be ashamed, after all, the city symbolizing his military exploits was under their feet, if it weren't for Zhuge Qiao risking his life to open the city gate, and then giving up his life to defend the city, how could they stand here.
"Sure enough, he is the son of the prime minister, and even the words are somewhat similar to the prime minister," Chen Zhen echoed;
"Your Majesty has arrived" Just when everyone was looking at Zhuge Qiao, Liu Bei appeared in the eyes of everyone; With his own share of the king's temperament, he slowly came to the hall.
"Do you know why I am in a hurry to invite everyone to come today" Liu Bei stepped up to his place and immediately asked the minister in the hall;
Everyone in the hall is guessing the meaning of Liu Bei's words, only Zhuge Qiao is confidently waiting for Liu Bei's final attitude;
"I plan to retreat to Yizhou and make peace with Dongwu Yan" Liu Bei said slowly, but he didn't show a trace of reluctance.
As soon as the words came out, the hall immediately boiled, and everyone was at a loss, last time His Majesty swore that he decided to continue to attack Wu, but now he suddenly changed his strategy;
"Your Majesty is wise" Just when everyone was still at a loss, Chen Zhen and Ma Liang echoed Liu Bei.
"Your Majesty, our army has lost nearly 20,000 soldiers and arrived at the foot of Yidao City, and now it has just recovered public security, and it is just right to attack the Wu army on two fronts, which is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, please think twice" Zhang Nan knelt on the ground, his expression was already panicked.
"Although it is a retreat, our army will still not give up the recovered city, and will leave a group of soldiers and horses to stay behind to wait for our army to recuperate and recuperate before attacking Eastern Wu" Liu Bei responded;
Zhang Nan saw that Liu Bei had made up his mind, and he didn't say much; He knew that what Liu Bei decided could not be persuaded to, and if he could be persuaded to do so, the Battle of Jingzhou would not have happened.
Ma Liang and Chen Zhen looked at each other and smiled, they could finally return to the prime minister, Ma Liang whispered;
"Your Majesty, I don't know who to send as an envoy to Dongwu to make peace with Sun Quanyan" Chen Zhen saw that no one was admonishing Liu Bei, so he knew that the matter had been decided, and there was still a look of confidence between the words.
Zhuge Qiao, who was silent, also immediately came to his senses when he heard that he was sending an envoy to Soochow; "Your Majesty, the last general asked to send an envoy to Eastern Wu to make peace with Sun Quan"
Zhuge Qiao had just finished speaking, and all the people in the hall looked at him unconsciously, with disbelief on their faces; It is not unusual for a seventeen-year-old to join the army and serve the country; If you go into battle to kill the enemy and make meritorious contributions, it is understandable; But it is unreasonable to represent one country to negotiate military affairs with another;
But Zhuge Qiao planned to touch this taboo.
