Cao Cao was defeated and died.

Zhang Fei was rescued by Hua Yu.

Peng Zecheng fell.

When these two news reached Jiangdong, Liu Bei was extremely shocked.

Especially the second news made Liu Bei furious.

Such a perfect plan, with so many people mobilized, allowed Zhang Fei to leave Jiangdong alive. What is this?
Could it be that the sky is going to kill Liu Bei?

Immediately, Liu Bei called Zhuge Liang into the palace.

"Prime Minister, what happened to Zhang Fei?" During this time, Liu Bei became more and more dissatisfied with Zhuge Liang, and his tone was not as good as before.

Liu Bei is also very smart, he knows that Zhuge Liang is wearing a pair of pants with him now.

Once he left him, Zhuge Liang would die immediately.

If it was before Hua Yu sent the painting, Liu Bei would never dare to have such an attitude towards Zhuge Liang.

Zhuge Liang sighed slightly: "Your Majesty, this plan is indeed flawless, but it was Hua Ziyi's sudden intervention, which made the success come to naught, and this is not my fault."

Zhuge Liang is such a smart person, there is no change in Liu Bei's attitude.

Therefore, Zhuge Liang's reaction was also indifferent, and he was not going to buy Liu Bei's account.

Because Zhuge Liang also knew that once Liu Bei left him, he would perish faster.

"..." Liu Bei was furious at being so lightly teased by Zhuge Liang, but he really didn't dare to turn his back on Zhuge Liang.

Coughing twice, Liu Bei asked: "Prime Minister, the current situation is becoming more and more unfavorable to me, a big man. I don't know what countermeasures the Prime Minister has?"

Zhuge Liang sighed: "Returning to Your Majesty, based on my speculation, Hua Ziyi will definitely ascend the throne and proclaim himself emperor next time."

"Then, in the name of Great Qin, attack Jiangdong."

"So, we have more preparation time."

"Moreover, according to my guess, Xu Sheng will return to Jiangdong in a few days, and my Jiangdong's strength will be greatly increased."

"Then Yanzhou is the land of Cao Cao. Although Cao Cao and the lord are in an alliance, they cannot be freely commanded like arms."

"And the soldiers of the Xiematai Kingdom are the soldiers of the lord, so naturally they are not comparable to Cao Jun's strength."

After hearing Zhuge Liang's words, Liu Bei felt better.

Yes, Xu Sheng is back, and Jiangdong's strength will increase.

Moreover, Liu Bei also heard Zhuge Liang's dissatisfaction and resistance, so naturally he didn't dare to really do anything to Zhuge Liang.

Zhuge Liang really couldn't live for a few days after leaving Jiangdong.

But if Liu Bei leaves Zhuge Liang, he won't be able to jump around for long.

There is also a more important point, while Zhang Fei is not doing much, Zhuge gradually controls the general power in his own hands.

In other words, the military and political power in Jiangdong is basically in the hands of Zhuge Liang.

Of course, Liu Bei is not a mediocre lord. Most of the military power in Jianye City is still in Liu Bei's hands.

Liu Bei sighed: "But, Pengze City has already fallen into the hands of the Qin army."

"Moreover, the Chinese thieves have already dispatched sailors to haunt Pengze Lake, echoing the defenders of Pengze City."

"If our army wants to regain Pengze City, I'm afraid it will be difficult to reach the sky."

Zhuge Liang smiled faintly: "Your Majesty, there is no need to worry, this matter has already been decided."

Liu Bei likes to hear Zhuge Liang's words.

Although Liu Bei hated Zhuge Liang's pretentiousness, he had to admit that this guy was indeed talented.

If Jiang Dong left Zhuge Liang, he might not be far from perishing.

Zhuge Liang said slightly: "My Majesty, this plan is related to the Chinese bandits' enthronement."

"When the Chinese thief ascends the throne, everyone under his rule must be overjoyed, and the important generals will definitely gather in Luoyang."

"And Qin Jun's naval commander is Gan Ning. This person's talent in the navy is definitely not inferior to Xu Sheng."

"If this person is here in person, the Pengze Lake navy and our Jiangdong Navy will be hard to shake."

"But if Hua Yu ascends the throne, Gan Ning will definitely go to Luoyang."

"And when Xu Sheng comes back, our army can easily destroy the Qin Army's navy in Pengze Lake."

"If the navy of the Qin Army dies, how long will Pengze City be left alone?"

Liu Bei was overjoyed, laughed loudly and said, "I have a prime minister to assist me, so why be afraid of the million Chinese thieves and lions?"

"Okay, just follow the prime minister's plan."

"As long as Pengzecheng can be taken down, I, Jiangdong, will still be monolithic."

At this moment, an eunuch hurried in: "Your Majesty, something is wrong. Chaisang City was captured by the Qin army."

"What?" Both Liu Bei and Zhuge Liang were taken aback.

What's more, Liu Bei got up from the dragon chair with a "huh", with a shocked expression on his face: "What's going on, why did Chaisang fall?"

"Isn't Chaisang guarded by Zhu Ran? Zhu Ran is brave and resourceful. How can he lose Chaisang?"

"Could it be that Zhu Ran also betrayed me?"

Zhuge Liang immediately persuaded: "Your Majesty, Zhu's family is all in Jianye City. How dare Zhu Ran betray His Majesty? There must be some other reason."

Only then did Liu Bei calm down a little, and asked, "Tell me, how did Chaisang fall?"

The eunuch replied: "Your Majesty, it is the Qin Army's Jiangnan Junzheng Xu Shu who sent General Wenpin to attack Chaisang."

"Although the Qin army's offensive is extremely fierce, General Zhu Ran is good at defending, and Chaisang City is as solid as gold..."

Before the eunuch finished speaking, Liu Bei became angry and cursed angrily: "Bastard, pick the point, if you dare to say another nonsense, I will kill your head."

"Here, Your Majesty." The eunuch was startled, and knelt down with a "plop".

"At this time, reinforcements suddenly came from the south gate. They said they were the defenders of Pengzecheng. They came to help when they learned of Chaisang's crisis. The general who led the army was the deputy general of Pengzecheng."

"General Zhu Ran was supervising the battle at the gate of the north city. When he heard the news, he ordered the guard at the gate of the south gate to open the gate and put the reinforcements into the city."

"Oh..." Liu Bei immediately stamped his feet, "Zhu Ran is really stupid, this reinforcement must be fake."

"Your Majesty is wise." The eunuch immediately patted Liu Bei's flattery, "This reinforcement is indeed fake. It was the Qin army pretending to open the gate of Chaisang City."

"Then, the cavalry of the Qin Army suddenly rushed over from a distance, followed the infantry, and entered Chaisang City."

"General Zhu Ran led the army to fight hard, but the combat effectiveness of the Qin army was extremely fierce, and the battle continued..."

"Shut up." Liu Bei was furious again, and he slapped the dragon case, "Quickly tell me, what happened to Zhu Ran?"

The eunuch didn't dare to talk nonsense anymore, and hurriedly replied: "Return to Your Majesty, General Zhu Ran was defeated by the Qin army and was captured by the Qin army."

"Captive?" Liu Bei immediately became nervous. Compared with the news of the prisoner, Liu Bei was more willing to hear that Zhu Ran died in battle.

"Then... did Zhu Ran surrender to the Qin army?"

The eunuch shook his head: "Your Majesty, the news brought by the defeated soldiers did not mention this, and the servants did not know about it."

Liu Bei said angrily: "Get out, find out the situation immediately."
