"Your Majesty, Cao Thief has appointed Zhuge Xu as a general, and he wants to lead troops into the Kou!"

Chengdu, inside the Imperial Palace.

It was another court meeting, and the ministers gathered in the palace.

Jiang Wei frowned, stood at the forefront, and told Liu Chan about Cao Wei.

Liu Chan sat on the top seat bored, the person was here, but his thoughts didn't seem to be here, his eyes were a little hollow, and he didn't know what to think of, and there was even a smile on the corner of his mouth.

As Zhong Hui said, after the temple named Zhuge Xu as the general of the expedition to Shu and changed Sima Wang to Liangzhou, there were soon riots in Shu.

Jiang Wei was the first to know about this, and he immediately began to think about Cao Wei's intentions.

After Cao Chao took office, he had already proved his ability to the Shu State, which was an extremely difficult enemy to deal with.

The situation in Yongliang is changeable, and Jiang Wei feels that something is wrong.

Did Cao Wei really want a large-scale invasion?

Jiang Wei believes that the Han should think about countermeasures earlier, if Cao Wei wants to invade on a large scale, he must deploy in advance, Cao Wei has always wanted to take Hanzhong, Jiang Wei feels that the other party is using troops in Yongliang, it is very likely that he wants to plot Hanzhong.

"Your Majesty, the army in Liangzhou is moving more and more frequently, and the army in Yongzhou has begun to repair the abandoned roads, which is already a precursor to the army going out."

"We don't have many troops in Hanzhong"

Jiang Wei said that his mouth was dry, but he couldn't get an answer from Liu Chan.

At this time, Chen Qi finally couldn't stand it anymore, he cleared his throat, stepped forward and said, "Your Majesty!" ”

Liu Chan suddenly woke up, and then looked at Chen Qi, but there was no blame in his eyes, and asked with a smile: "What is the performance of Chen Gong?" ”

"Cao thief may really want to enter the Kou Han, Your Majesty must not be guarded against."

"The army should be called up in advance and prepared for defense"

Hearing Chen Qi's words, Liu Chan was a little unhappy, "Gong Chen, the Han Dynasty has natural dangers, where is it so easy to be attacked?" Besides, the other side only had some harbingers of sending troops, and did not send troops, and if they gathered troops from all over the world, and they did not know how much food they would have to spend, if they did not come in the end, wouldn't it be in vain? ”

Jiang Wei couldn't help but say, "Your Majesty, you can't think like that!" ”

"Cao thief can not come, but we can't be unguarded, this natural danger is not impossible to break, if the enemy sends troops from many sides, no timely reinforcements, Hanzhong will definitely have a big problem."

Liu Chan was a little displeased.

Since Jiang Wei's last defeat, Liu Chan no longer likes him so much.

Although Chen Yi has been trying to ease up and try to make Jiang Wei take a step forward, he can't stand Huang Hao's instigation, so that the relationship between the two sides is not so close.

Liu Chan asked again: "Then if Cao Thief feints every day, we must put the army in Hanzhong and wait all day?!" Where do we have such food? ”

Jiang Wei was very helpless about this.

He can't say that the emperor's idea is wrong, but the current situation really requires a large army to be stationed in the Hanzhong area.

The morale of the Cao thief army is very high, and the new generals are by no means idle, if they take the opportunity to storm and lose Hanzhong, it will be a fatal blow to Shu.

Jiang Wei looked at Chen Yi on the side.

Chen Yi spoke again: "Your Majesty, we must find a way to solve this matter. ”

"Then do you want to borrow grain from Wu Guo again?"

"The minister was about to tell His Majesty about this matter, the general Sun Jun of Wu died of illness, and the general Sun Qi took his place, and his hussar general Lu rebelled, and Wu was in turmoil, and the promised grain was only sent less than half, and it was forced to stop"

Liu Chan was furious, "Do the Wu people want to break their trust again?!" ”

Chen Qi said bitterly: "The newly appointed general Sun Qi is not like a capable and far-sighted person, but I am afraid that he will not really come with the Han to deal with the Cao thief." ”

"And Wu Guo has killed several generals in a row, and even a clan has defected to Cao Wei, next, if something goes wrong with Wu State, then"

Liu Chan finally couldn't sit still.

Why is it that the situation in this world has suddenly become so bad?

Wasn't it okay before? How can you play with confidence if you go on like this?

He was a little anxious, "Guys, what are we going to do now?" ”

"We still have to gather our troops and prepare for defense, and if necessary, we can strike first and disrupt their deployment, so that they can't"

As soon as Chen Qi opened his mouth, one of the ministers couldn't help but stand up.

"Gong Chen?! Do you want to send troops again?! ”

The person who stood up was Dr. Zhongsan.

Qian Zhou was born in a large Brazilian family, studious since childhood, familiar with the classics, and was later appointed by Zhuge Liang to persuade the study to engage, and when Jiang Wan came to power, he was appointed to the classics to engage in, which can be regarded as the leader of the entire Bashu scholars.

Liu Chan took Liu Xuan as the crown prince and let Qian Zhou serve as the prince's family order, and later he saw that Liu Chan often went out to play and was intoxicated, so he sent a table to the emperor and advised Liu Chan to follow the example of the first emperor and reduce the number of harems and music palaces.

Later, he served as a doctor in Zhongsan, and he has been working until now.

Qian Zhou's face was not very good-looking at the moment, he looked at Chen Yi in front of him, and said, "Have you forgotten the consequences of sending troops last time?" ”

"The army is counted, the people are withered, out of the palace, all you can hear along the road is the cry of the people, our food is not even enough to relieve the disaster, do you still want to send troops to fight?!"

Chen Qi said solemnly: "The matter is not as serious as you said, there will be a victory or defeat in the war, a defeat is nothing, besides, if you wait for the enemy to attack, wouldn't it cost more?" It's better to take the initiative and gain something if you don't give the other party time to prepare. ”

"Capture?!"

"Gong Chen, you are a reasonable person, years of war have made Yizhou tired and unable to fight again, please don't put forward the matter of levy again, and settle down the country first, and then make plans!"

Chen Yi shook his head, "You don't understand government affairs, I won't talk to you about this matter." ”

Qian Zhou sighed and retreated to his place with some reluctance.

The faces of the ministers are not very good-looking at the moment, especially those ministers who were born in Yizhou, and the eyes that look at Chen Qi at this moment have become unkind.

Jiang Wei looked at the situation in the temple and felt a little uneasy in his heart.

The idea of the ministers opposing the sending of troops is getting stronger and stronger, and famous people like Qian Zhou have jumped out to oppose it, which I don't know how many people will stand up against themselves.

But now the situation

He looked at Chen Yi again, Jiang Wei didn't dare to come out, he couldn't come out.

Compared with him, Liu Chan is more willing to listen to Chen Qi's words, if he talks too much here, I am afraid that Liu Chan will not listen.

Chen Yi persuaded for a long time before he persuaded Liu Chan and agreed to gather the army first and prepare for defense.

The interest of the ministers was not very high, and as soon as the court meeting ended, the ministers got up one after another and left here without looking back, completely snubbing Chen Qi and others.

Qian Zhou was at the forefront, anger written all over his face.

In these years of war, not only the people have been damaged, but also their big clans, and life is also very difficult, the tenants have been dragged to fight, and there is no one in the farmland of the old man!

When he returned home, his students were waiting for him.

"Teacher."

This is a young man in his early twenties, with immaturity written on his face, and a momentum that belongs to a young man.

His name is Chen Shou.

He has been studious since he was a child, and he worshipped his fellow countryman Zhou as his teacher, studying books such as "Shangshu" and "Three Biography".

Personally, he is very fond of history books, and often reads historical records and Han books, and evaluates these historical books.

Qian Zhou was in a bad mood at the moment, and seeing that the disciple did not have a good face, he walked straight into the study, asked the disciple to prepare a pen and ink, pondered for a moment, and then began to write.

"Because the rest of the country is small, and the country that was built is big, and it is the enemy of the world."

"Because the rest of the country has a high virtuous person, he asked Yu Fu Yuzi and said: Today's state affairs are undecided, and the upper and lower levels are working hard, and in the past, what is the skill of defeating the strong with the weak?"

The more he wrote, the faster he wrote, stopping from time to time to ponder, and soon, an article appeared under his hands.

In the article, he said two imaginary countries, because Yu and Zhao Jianguo, because Yu is a small country, Zhao Jian is a big country, and the two countries are enemies

This is not a hint, this is already a very naked explicit.

In the article, Qian Zhou criticized the behavior of reckless military force and going out on expeditions for many years, and talked about the final victory only by recuperating with the people and recuperating with the people

Qian Zhou picked up the article.

Chen Shou leaned over with some curiosity, "Teacher, this is?" ”

"This article is called 'On Hatred of the Country.'"

"Hatred of the country??"

Hearing this name, Chen Shou looked a little dazed.

And soon, this article spread in Shu.

I don't know if it's because too many people think the article is well written, or if they agree with Qian Zhou's point of view, in short, the theory of hatred of the country is spread in Shu, and the officials of Shu are discussing this article fiercely.

The blow this brought to Shu was almost devastating, and in an instant, it was as if officials across the country had begun to denounce Jiang Wei and Chen Qi's actions.

This had a great impact on the morale of Shu, and the localists were reluctant to go on the expedition in the first place, but at this moment this article seemed to ignite the anger of all of them, and they all began to state their dissatisfaction.

When Jiang Wei saw this article, his face turned pale, and he couldn't speak for a long time.

As for Chen Qi, after reading it, he sighed and didn't refute it.

Even Liu Chan saw this article.

After Liu Chan finished reading it, his face was a little complicated.

"Husband Huang, what Qian Zhou said seems to make sense."

"However, if Chen Gong saw it, he would probably be very angry, right?"

Huang Hao hesitated for a moment and asked, "Then how will Your Majesty deal with Qian Zhou?" ”

"Disposition? What to do with him, the article he wrote is still good, and what he said is not unreasonable, let him stop being a doctor in Zhongsan. ”

"Let's enter Dr. Guanglu!"
