Chapter 262: Prepare for battle and prepare for battle
Regarding Liu Chan's reckless attitude, Zhuge Liang, who almost taught him from childhood to adulthood, was the first to react.
After sorting out all the joints in his mind in an instant, Zhuge Liang immediately got up and arched his hand: "What the prince said is extremely true!" His Majesty the Emperor was born with holy virtues, and he was unyielding in the face of repeated misfortunes. I'd rather die than hand over Jiangshan Sheji to Cao Thief!
"This must be that Cao Pi has assassinated His Majesty, but he has not revealed it, and deceived people of insight in the world with the theory of Zen. We are all inseparable from Cao Thief! However, at this time, the Northern Expedition was too hasty, and he asked the prince to calm his anger and think about it in the long run. ”
Liu Chan gave Uncle Zhuge a big thumbs up in his heart, and on the surface, he seemed to be a little moved, but he still looked indignant about not being able to send troops immediately.
Fa Zheng also got up at this time and said: "Yes, my Great Han Guozuo has gone through more than four hundred years, and Your Majesty would definitely rather die than make the artifact easier!" Cao Thief must have assassinated His Majesty, and then found a person who looked similar to His Majesty, pretending to be the emperor to practice meditation, which is really ridiculous! ”
Good guy, Fa Zheng is more ruthless than himself, and he directly paved the road behind him.
In the future, even if Liu Xie was found out by Cao Pi, he threatened him to say that the Zen position was sincere, and he only needed to bite him to death as an impostor.
Dong He, Huang Quan, Yi Yuan, Liu Ba and other important ministers, as well as Mi Zhu and Xu Jing, who basically do not speak on weekdays, are all listed at this time.
Lao Liu lowered his head and sighed deeply, Dahan, it's really over.
He didn't know what the people meant.
If Emperor Xian did not die, but really finally succumbed to Cao Pi's obscenity and completed the Zen concession, it not only buried the Han Guozuo, but also shook the banner of righteousness he held high.
Anyone who wants Kuang Han Xingliu will have their legitimacy attacked by Cao Wei.
But even if that's the case, can he still accept his fate, divide one side, and give up the ideals in his heart when he comes to this day?
Of course not! If so, he would not be the Liu Bei who would cry bitterly for the resurrection of his hips.
What do you say...... Reasonable! Liu Bei raised his head, his gaze became firm again, "Don't be impatient, Cao Pi dares to do this great rebellion, and the widow is incompatible with it!" However, compared with Cao Wei, the land of Jingyi is weak after all, and it cannot be moved lightly.
"It is imperative that we first choose a day for Your Majesty's mourning, so that Your Majesty can rest in peace. Then he informed the world of Cao Thief's evil deeds, recruited people of insight from all over the world, accumulated grain and trained troops, and renovated military equipment...... Sun Wu in the east, and then Xu Tu Northern Expedition. ”
Liu Chan seemed to be persuaded at this time, bowed down and hugged his fists and said: "Father Wang is wise, Fang Cai'er was impulsive and almost missed a big event." ”
The goal has been achieved, of course, he will accept it when he sees it, is it really impossible to lead 10,000 people to the Northern Expedition by himself, and his Liu Chan's brain has never been kicked by a donkey......
"The king is wise!" The ministers bowed and bowed their hands.
The plan has been decided, and someone has chosen an auspicious day to prepare for Liu Xie's funeral.
The specifications must be full according to the emperor's standards, and the pomp and circumstance must be large.
At the same time, it was rumored that the local government had publicized this unfortunate news and publicized it widely, so as to accept people of insight to conspire against the thieves.
Down with the Cao Wei puppet state! Avenge Your Majesty and oppose Wei and Han!
At the same time, the work of counting in various places has also been completed one after another, grain into the warehouse, gold and silver treasures into the warehouse, this year's harvest compared with previous years, to achieve a substantial year-on-year growth.
After the funeral for His Majesty, he will start to discuss the Northern Expedition.
……
Unlike Chengdu's united efforts and indignation, Jiangdong Sun Quan still felt a little lost about the road ahead at this time.
After investigation, Zhang Wen did accept a large amount of money and property from Xishu, and even his words praising Liu Bei's forces in Chengdu were confessed by his peers, and he was sent home by the angry Sun Quan.
If you don't go to prison and bring it to justice, it's the last mercy for the sake of the face of the four major families.
It's just that although the person has dealt with it and his anger has disappeared, Sun Quan is still undecided.
"His Majesty the Emperor has been on the throne, and now Cao Wei is the Han Dynasty, and the monarchs think it is ...... But where do we go? ”
Sun Quan is not a person without ambition, on the contrary, he is not only ambitious, but also very big.
However, the Sun family started from a family in troubled times, and even if Panfu is said to be a descendant of Sun Wu, the author of "The Art of War", he still does not have a family background that can support his ambitions.
This is his fatal weakness.
Cao Wei is in control of the emperor, and Liu Bei has royal blood no matter how broken he is, so he can do it alone reasonably and legally.
He is the only Sun Quan, but he must choose one side to rely on, when he wants to fight Cao Wei, he has to borrow Lao Liu's rhetoric, and when he wants to fight Lao Liu, he has to admit Cao Wei's rhetoric......
"General." The first to speak out was Zhang Zhao.
The corners of Sun Quan's mouth twitched, and before the other party could speak, he had already guessed what he was going to say.
How do you know that this time Zhang Zhao is not like before, and he is to surrender Cao.
I saw him stand up, walk to the center of the hall, bow down to Sun Quan solemnly, and bow to the ground.
"Hey, Strategist, you ......"
Zhang Zhaoli, who is Sun Quan's military advisor, got up, and his expression was so solemn and sincere for the first time: "Lord, the old minister is upright, he doesn't know how to speak tactfully, and he didn't support the lord's intention to resist Cao when he was in Chibi." ”
"Well, I know that the military advisor is also ......"
"Lord, please listen to the old minister!" Zhang Zhao solemnly interrupted Sun Quan's words.
“…… You said. Sun Quan looked at the old minister in front of him and felt that he was a little different.
"Since the minister has followed the Sun family, it has been twenty and four years, and the old minister is worthy of asking himself. Even if Chibi surrendered at the beginning, he wanted to protect the foundation of Jiangdong and did not want to be destroyed in the war. ”
Sun Quan never dreamed that the first person to take the initiative to mention Chibi would be Zhang Zhao......
"However, the lord is eloquent and strategic, leading Jiangdong to unite Liu Pocao, and his vision and courage are far better than those of the old ministers. However, in today's situation, even if the lord is displeased, the old minister still has to say that it is better to surrender to Cao. Zhang Zhao was ashamed and stood with his hands down.
Sun Quan almost spurted out a mouthful of old blood, thinking that he was solemn and had a high opinion, but he didn't expect to come back after a big circle.
If Liu Ba heard these four words, he would probably call him an insider, and there were indeed people outside the Cao realm.
"Cao Pi ascended the throne without deciding the country, and in order to convince the people of the world, he must show his cultural and martial arts. Although Wenzhi did not have any effect for several years, the old minister expected that he would definitely move his army south.
"Xishu is difficult to attack, the grain road is difficult and dangerous, and the cost of sending troops is huge. If the general does not surrender to Cao as soon as possible, he will definitely become the choice of Cao Pinan's expedition. At that time, Xishu Liu Bei will ignore the previous suspicions? ”
Sun Quan was silent now, this was what he was most worried about.
"But if you surrender to Cao, won't Jiangdong Foundation be handed over?!" Sun Quan said urgently.
Zhang Zhaoyi waved his hand: "The lord surrendered on the table, this is a plan to delay the army, if Cao Pi really wins, maybe there will be a reward for the lord, which is also a good thing for the lord."
"Even if he is suspicious, I wait for the table to surrender, it is impossible for him to attack instead? Is there such a reason in the world? As long as it drags on for a year and a half, when my Jiangdong recovers its strength, it will have the ability to protect itself. ”
Sun Quan thought about it, it seemed to make sense, and he groaned when he sank.
Gu Yong, who didn't talk much at this time, suddenly said: "Zhang Zibu is reasonable, Cao Pi Wei is newly established, and he will not be satisfied with the status quo." My Jiangdong is weak at this time, so it is better to go down first on the table for the time being, and then plan later. ”
Seeing that both of them said this, Sun Quan couldn't come up with any better opinions, so he sighed secretly, and finally agreed.
It's just that I can't help but miss Zhou Gongjin and Lu Zijing a little, if these two are here, they must think of a more clever strategy......
On the one hand, Sun Quan declared his surrender to Cao Wei, and on the other hand, he further increased taxes and military service internally, and stepped up the restoration of military strength.
At this critical moment, in order to keep the Sun family's foundation from losing, we can only suffer the people again.
At the same time, he continued to order the Zhu family to preside over the conquest of Shanyue, forcibly conquer the defeated tribal cottages, and further replenish the source of troops.
And the newly enthroned Cao Pi, after experiencing the initial complacency, did not lose himself in the voice of "Your Majesty" from the ministers.
Just as the people of Jiangdong thought, Cao Pi really planned to do something big...... One to consolidate his rule with a beautiful victory.
Second, he wants to use this to completely solve those disobedient Qingxu Haoba, including Zang Ba, and the Qingzhou soldiers under them.
