"As we all know, at the invitation of Wu State, the lord went to the land of Eastern Wu to meet on the 'future development of relations between the two countries', and tried to strengthen the alliance between Wu and Shu with the help of the marriage of Wu's daughter. However, now that two and a half months have passed, there has been no news from the lord who went to Wu for a long time, and even Wu has not responded to any related response, so I have to worry about whether there was some accident in the middle. ”

Zhuge Liang always speaks with a knife to the blood, and never drags mud and water.

Of course, no matter how perfect a person is, there will always be people who are not used to it.

"Hmph, it turns out that the military advisor who has a lot of opportunities still knows that he cares about my eldest brother." In the cold snort, I saw Zhang Feipi, who was sitting on the right, said with a smile: "It's been so long, I thought you had forgotten about this thing a long time ago." ”

Wang Yao, who had just learned that the object of this discussion was Liu Bei, raised his head, looked at Zhang Fei's tiger face, and frowned slightly.

"Second brother, don't be rude to the military advisor." Guan Yu glanced at Zhang Fei as a warning before he said to Zhuge Liang: "Strategist, please continue." ”

Li Ping also said with a smile on the side: "So, what do you think of this?" ”

Zhuge Liang glanced at Li Ping, a deeper old man in the city, and only said two concise words lightly: "House arrest." ”

Everyone's expressions suddenly froze, Guan Yu stroked his long beard, and said thoughtfully: "It's true that there hasn't been news for a long time, but ...... Do the advisors think this is possible? Even if they are in the country of Wu, it is impossible for the eldest brother to fight for them, what good can it do them to put the eldest brother under house arrest in the country of Wu? ”

"Huh. Second brother, didn't you even think of this? Don't forget, our military master and Zhou Yu's kid are nominal brothers! ”

In Guan Yu's incomprehensible gaze, Zhang Fei narrowed a pair of tiger eyes slightly, and sneered to himself: "Maybe this brother and sister have been planning in private for a long time to come to our Shu Kingdom, so Wu Guo will put the eldest brother under house arrest, in order to allow someone to have enough time to control the Shu Kingdom!" ”

"General Zhang! Please don't say that again, a military advisor is not like that! Luna, who had been taken care of by Zhuge Liang in her early years, couldn't bear Zhang Fei's slander, and finally couldn't help but stand up and say.

"Shut up! Just an outsider, don't think that defeating a Lu Bu in the highlands of Wei will make you qualified to talk to me like this! Zhang Fei retorted very unceremoniously.

As soon as the words fell, Huang Zhong stopped doing it, and directly blackened his face, staring at Zhang Fei coldly: "Brother Yide, can you please be polite to our girl?" Are you going to be dead when I'm an old man? ”

Looking at Huang Zhong's extremely dangerous eyes, Zhang Fei snorted, and stopped paying attention to Luna, who was pulled back to her seat by Wang Yao.

For Huang Zhong, a senior shooter, Zhang Fei still has a lot of scruples. But even so, he still didn't plan to stop there: "Everyone, let me make it clear today if it's not good." I believe that since this period of time, everyone has seen that in our high-level, some people have recently become more and more authoritarian and reckless, not only a large number of low-level commanders have been promoted, but even without the consent of my eldest brother's personal instructions, a small soldier who has joined the army for less than a year has been promoted to the top level, in my opinion, this is simply cultivating henchmen and cronies to seek misdeeds! ”

At this time, fools can hear that Zhang Fei's words are all directed at Zhuge Liang and Wang Yao.

But in this regard, Zhuge Liang was silent. On the contrary, Huang Zhong spoke: "Although Wang Yao's promotion to overseer was not approved by the lord, there are extraordinary measures in extraordinary times, and the military advisor has privately consulted me and Yun Chang in advance, and we have unanimously agreed. I believe that if the lord was here, he wouldn't say anything more. ”

Rumble!

Zhang Fei slapped the square table with a slap of his palm, and roared angrily: "According to what you say, is there anything in the future that can be done without going through my eldest brother, as long as half of the heroes agree?" Today, you can let Xiaobing be the overseer, so tomorrow is it okay to let him be the emperor of Shu? ! ”

"You're arguing with reason!"

"I'm just talking about things!"

Looking at the two of them who were fighting for red faces and thick necks, Wang Yao didn't find out until this time; Where is this girl discussing military affairs? It's clear that the two parties are fighting each other-for-tat!

But Wang Yao still didn't speak after all, just like Zhuge Liang, just clubbed his chin and watched Zhang Fei continue to perform with interest.

"Everyone here has been shaded by my Shu Kingdom for many years, I hope you don't forget your roots!"

I saw Zhang Fei say indignantly: "The surname of this country is Liu, and it is an empire that our three brothers Liu Guan and Zhang worked hard to fight, not Zhuge with the surname!" If someone acts recklessly and intends to get involved in the power that belongs to our three brothers, then I, Zhang Fei, will be the first to stand up and break him into pieces! ”

These words were named, full of murderous aura, and their sensitivity was so sensitive that they almost tore their faces and questioned Zhuge Liang in person about seeking power and usurping the throne, so as soon as Zhang Fei's words fell, the entire conference hall immediately became cold.

No one took the lead in speaking, everyone had strained faces, except Liu Chan, who was sitting at the top, looking at each other's people with a strong smell of gunpowder, and laughing happily, and didn't know what he was thinking......

Just when the parliament was in the cold.

"Third brother, you are presumptuous!"

In the sound of righteous rebuke, Guan Yu, who had always been steady and composed, was furious for the first time, glared at Zhang Fei and scolded: "What do you want to do? Split the Shu Kingdom?! From the moment you walked through this door, you have been against the military advisor everywhere, is this kind of behavior what you should do as a general who commands a legion?! The military advisor is loyal to the eldest brother, and the lower is loyal to the people, and your words are not only insulting the military advisor, but also insulting the eldest brother who asked the military advisor to go out of Wollongong to help govern the country! ”

The three brothers Liu Guan and Zhang, the boss is not there, so only Guan Yu can suppress a tiger general like Zhang Fei.

After reprimanding Zhang Fei, Guan Yu then hugged his fists and apologized to Zhuge Liang and Wang Yao: "Military advisor, Brother Yao, my third brother's beloved son Zhang Shao, disappeared in the canyon for a month, and his whereabouts are unknown so far, life and death are unpredictable, so he is so impetuous, if there is something inappropriate, please don't mind." ”

"It's okay, we can understand that." Zhuge Liang and Wang Yao glanced at each other, and the meaning was only clear to the two of them.

As a peacemaker, seeing that the atmosphere was not right, Li Ping also hurriedly smiled and said: "What General Guan said is extremely true, General Zhang, at such a critical moment of survival, we should work together, so as not to be taken advantage of by outsiders." ”

After a pause, Li Ping's cloudy old eyes flashed: "But the so-called country can't be without a king for a day, the old man suggests that from now on, support the prince of Liu Chan as the new emperor, only in this way can we live up to the kindness of the former lord and stabilize the hearts of the people." ”

In this regard, to a certain extent, it is also a resolution of the best policy, but Zhuge Liang is opposed, and hit the nail on the head to say its drawbacks: "The lord is suspicious, the prince is young, and he is in a hurry to become the new king, I am afraid it will be difficult to convince the public, this suggestion is really to drink to quench your thirst!" ”

Zhang Fei, who finally pressed Guan Yu down, heard this, and immediately exploded again: "Zhuge Liang! If you want to monopolize power, just say it! What are you doing around the bush?! ”

"Third brother!"

"Second brother, you and your eldest brother are too indulgent of this person!"

"General Zhang, please be calm and don't be impatient, focus on the overall situation......"

Seeing that the council, which was not easy to stabilize, suddenly fell into a meaningless dispute again, Huang Zhong closed his eyes and shook his head silently, as if he was too lazy to argue with Zhang Fei anymore.

And Luna also frowned with a pair of beautiful eyebrows, a helpless expression.

Just when everyone was deadlocked, a voice suddenly sounded without warning.

"In that case, then let's start a war with the Wu Kingdom!"

This is what Wang Yao said, although the voice was not loud, but it made the noisy conference hall quiet in an instant.

Everyone turned their heads together, looking at Wang Yao, who had been silent from beginning to end, with different expressions.

"Do you know what you're talking about?" Zhang Fei stared at the little soldier with great disdain, for him, this little soldier was very eye-catching, just as hateful as the 'authoritarian' Zhuge Liang.

"I know what I'm talking about." Ignoring Zhang Fei, a big man, Wang Yao said calmly: "But I think this is the best decision at the moment." This kind of small trick of Wu State can't just want us to have no leader in Shu Kingdom, and then there will be civil strife and disputes, just like now. Then, I think the best way for us to deal with it is to take the initiative to attack Wu Guo, if Wu Guo still doesn't release Brother Liu, then we will hit their high ground and personally welcome Brother Liu back! I believe that this was the intention of the military advisor from the beginning. ”

Saying that, Wang Yao turned his head and looked at Zhuge Liang beside him: "Is that so?" ”

"Yes." Zhuge Liang nodded undeniably.

"It's true that the best defense is to be proactive. However, ......" Li Ping, who has always been a peacemaker, at this moment, an old face like a withered tree showed displeasure: "Yao Overseer, you are still too young, war is not as simple as it is said!" It requires the consumption of countless troops, material resources, resources, and wealth, and we cannot devote the whole country to fighting a war that loses both sides, let alone what if it fails? To know

The perennial war has already made our Shu country tired, at this time, our Shu country should rest and recuperate, and wait for the times to change. This decision was agreed with not only by the lord, but also by the military advisor. That's why for so long, our Shu Kingdom has never taken the initiative to attack Wu Wei! Forcibly provoking a war will only make the troubled Shu State worse

Before saying these words, please be more considerate of me, an old man who is responsible for the logistics and finances of the entire Shu Kingdom, it is not easy for me to work hard to run the Shu Kingdom for so many years. And in our Shu country, the millions of people at the bottom who are plagued by heavy taxes have long been miserable and complaining, what if they are not properly handled and provoke a civil uprising? Has the Overseer ever considered this? ”

Wang Yao didn't expect that Li Ping was like he had made a draft in advance, and he was gushing endlessly.

But it is undeniable that Li Ping's words have a certain truth, although Wang Yao does not understand economics, but he has read history, but he also knows that it is not unheard of that a country that has been dragged down by a foreign war, or even destroyed.

War is by no means as simple as some hot-blooded young people who only shout empty all day long, and as leaders and leaders, there are many factors and concerns that often make them have to swallow their anger.

And this is also the reason why Zhuge Liang did not say that he would take the initiative to attack Wu at the beginning of the fight.

Excluding Zhang Fei's obstruction, all kinds of restrictions on military and material resources, in fact, the most important thing is just like what was said to Wang Yao at the beginning, starting a canyon war requires the consumption of the life of the earth, although Zhuge Liang is the main battle faction, but he also knows that the land of Shu has long been barren, if it is further consumed, one day this land will also be desertified, and it will become completely unsuitable for human survival.

At this point, Zhuge Liang, who understands the pros and cons, cannot convince Li Ping on the bright side, no matter what.

But......

At this moment, looking at Wang Yao with a confident face, Zhuge Liang suddenly felt that maybe this little soldier who was pinned on by himself and Su An would have the ability to persuade Li Ping.

"I can understand Mr. Li's difficulty."

I saw Wang Yao say with a solemn face: "Indeed, I am still too young, so that I have risen suddenly, and many people are extremely unconvinced psychologically. But I also came step by step from a small soldier, and in that cruel place where there were nearly 10,000 corpses ambushed at every turn, I only understood one truth. ”

Speaking of this, Wang Yao's red and black eyes quietly floated a hint of coldness: "That is, respect and dignity must be fought for by yourself!" ”

In the subtle looks of everyone, Wang Yao stood up and said loudly: "Everyone here is actually very clear that at present, Wu, Shu and Wei are three-legged, and among them, Wei is the strongest, followed by our Shu State, and finally Wu State, so we are eager to form an alliance with Wu State, because everyone understands that our real opponent is the powerful Wei State, and only by allied with Wu State, we can have no worries, but you don't forget one thing."

Four months ago, at the embarrassing moment when our Shu Kingdom fell into a lack of combat strength, it was those people in the Wu State who were waiting for an opportunity to invade on a large scale, intending to annex our Shu Kingdom! If today, we don't take this opportunity to teach them a lesson, so that they will all be afraid of Shu in the future, a situation like this will not be just the last time! There will be a second and third time, and if this goes on like this, the losses caused to Shu will only be greater. People are good at being bullied, and horses are good at being ridden, I think everyone understands this truth, so whether it is to deter Wu Guo or for Brother Liu, we should fight this battle......"

The huge conference hall is silent!

Everyone looked at Wang Yao in disbelief, and almost no one would have imagined that this new Overseer, who had come to the council for the first time, would have such vision and courage.

Even Zhang Fei, who is the most provocative, although he is still unconvinced, he is speechless in the end!

"A true alliance is not something that can be connected by a political marriage or a sincere heart, but also by making our allies recognize our strength!"

Looking at everyone's stunned expressions, the corners of Wang Yao's mouth rose, revealing a creepy sneer.

"It's also time to let those guys in Wu Guo have a longer memory."
