Chapter 230 Zhang Wu Swears
Xu Shu's words made Liu Bei's group feel a lot of emotion.

As a general, who wouldn't want to gallop on the battlefield, chasing death and chasing the north, resisting aliens like Wei Qing and Huo Qubing, and being named a marquis and a general!
As a civil servant, who doesn't want to take charge of power, assist the Ming Dynasty, govern the world like Guan Zhong and Xiao He, and create a prosperous age!
As a counselor, who doesn't want to be trusted, give advice, strategize like Sun Bin and Zhang Liang, and win a thousand miles!

Liu Bei is 45 years old this year, Guan Yu and Zhang Fei are also in their 40s, Zhao Yun is younger, but he is also in his 30s.The rest of Jian Yong, Sun Qian, Mi Zhu and others were only slightly older than Liu Bei. According to the average life expectancy of this era, these people have lived most of their lives in the past.

Zhuge Liang is quite young, only 25 years old, but if we continue to wait like this, who knows how many more years we will have to wait?Five years or ten years?Who doesn't want to be famous and hold power when they are young.

When Zhou Yu was 24 years old, everyone in Wu County called him Zhou Lang, and at the age of 25 he became the governor of Jiangdong.

Guo Jia became Cao Cao's mastermind when he was 26 years old. Cao Cao obeyed his words and wiped out all the heroes in a few years.

It is Zhuge Liang's classmate Pang Tong, who is now the chief military adviser in Jingzhou, and he is only 26 years old.

Zhuge Liang thinks that his ability is no worse than Zhou Yu and Guo Jia. If they can do it, why can't I do it?At the beginning, he chose to rely on the weak Liu Bei, but he actually wanted to make a difference with his own ability.

But who knows that people are not as good as the sky, a good development plan died at the first step, and until now there is no chance to get a piece of their own territory.Persuading Liu Bei to go to Yizhou is actually a last resort, because for them, if they still want to fight for world hegemony, this is the only way.

But if Zhang Wu wanted to take Yizhou, they would have no chance. Moreover, with Zhuge Liang's ingenuity, he could guess that Zhang Wu might not really want to take Yizhou, because Cao Cao in the north and Cao Cao in the east Sun Quan is always threatening Jingzhou.Zhang Wu's words are more likely to tell Zhuge Liang, I know your plan, but you won't have a chance.

Even if Zhang Wu can't take Yizhou for the time being, he will never let Liu Bei take Yizhou, which will bring him a possible opponent.As long as Zhang Wu uses some small tricks secretly, it is enough to make them die in Yizhou.

Although Zhuge Liang had no opportunity to display his talents in the past two years, he never had the idea of ​​leaving Liu Bei. This was not only because the loyal ministers he believed in did not serve two masters, but also because Liu Bei was the uncle of the emperor of the Han Dynasty.

Many people, including Zhuge Liang, actually had feelings for the Han Dynasty. For example, although Xun Yu tried his best to assist Cao Cao, he still thought in his heart that he was a Han official and an official of the emperor.

Therefore, Zhuge Liang said: "Since Dong Zhuo's rebellion, through the rebellions of Li Jue and Guo Si, and now Cao Cao has controlled the government, he has always exercised autocratic power in the name of the emperor. If Governor Zhang can one day defeat Cao Cao and restore unification, who knows? How will you face the Son of Heaven?"

Zhuge Liang’s question was actually asked for Liu Bei, because no matter how weak Liu Bei is, he is also the uncle of the Han Dynasty and the clan of the Han family. It is impossible to take refuge in others easily, let alone a person who may rebel in the future.

Among the many princes in today's world, although they all play the banner of a great man, which one really thinks that he is a Han minister?Not to mention Cao Cao, is Liu Biao, who is also a clan member of the Han Dynasty, loyal to the emperor when he was alive?Is Liu Zhang, who is still alive, loyal to the court?
Half of the reason for the current situation of separatist feudal lords is caused by Liu Zhang's father, Liu Yan.

Liu Ye, Cao Cao's subordinate, is also a clan member of the Han family. In terms of blood relationship with the emperor, he is much closer than Liu Bei, but he is loyal to Cao Cao, a Han thief.

But Zhuge Liang knew that Liu Bei was indeed loyal to the emperor, and he wanted to defeat Cao Cao also to save the emperor.

Now Liu Bei doesn't even have a piece of land, how could he have the ambition to be emperor?And since Liu Bei made his debut, what cruel and unjust things have he done?
Liu Bei has taken refuge in many people, but who did he take the initiative to harm?Even when taking Xichuan, it was Liu Zhang who made the first move.

Zhang Wu knew that Zhuge Liang's question was very important, because it was the most important political goal of a group.For two groups of people to work together, they must first have a common goal and a basis for cooperation.For example, the cooperation between the Kuomintang and the Communist Party is to fight against Japan together, and the alliance between Sun and Liu is to fight against Cao Cao together.

Now both Zhang Wu and Liu Bei are resolutely resisting Cao Cao, so cooperation is no problem, but if you want to cooperate further and make the two become one family, you need a deeper foundation for cooperation.

This foundation must include two aspects, one is the road, and the other is interests.

Only people who follow the same path can eventually come together, otherwise they will part ways at the crossroads.Now everyone is fighting Cao Cao and can be united as one, but what about after defeating Cao Cao?I want to rescue the emperor and rejuvenate the Han Dynasty, but what if you want to become king on your own?Will you kill us then because we disagree?
There is no problem in terms of interests. Zhang Wu needs the talents of Liu Bei's subordinates to advise him and charge forward.The talents under Liu Bei need to rely on Zhang Wu's strength to realize the value of life.

As Zhang Wu is a person, he will definitely not treat those who have meritorious deeds badly, which is well known throughout the world.Even Liu Biao's confidants and old generals can rely on his trust so much, who can trust him with confidence.

So does Zhang Wu have the will to stand on his own?

Of course, otherwise, why would he work so hard?With his current strength and reputation, if he surrendered to Cao Cao, how could Cao Cao treat him badly?
But he can't say it, otherwise not only will he not be able to recruit Liu Bei and his group, but he will only be enemies in the future.

Zhang Wu said: "As a Han official, Zhang received great kindness from the emperor, so he should be loyal to the emperor. For as long as the great man exists, Zhang will be a Han minister for as long as he exists. If one day he can defeat Cao Cao and rule the world, if the emperor is still alive, Zhang must The government will be returned to the emperor, and the government will be returned to the court. At that time, Zhang will resign and become a rich man! If he violates this statement, Zhang will die by the sword!"

The ancients attached great importance to oaths, especially for a person with Zhang Wu's status. Swearing in front of so many people is enough to prove that he really thinks so in his heart.

When Sun Jian got the imperial seal by chance, Yuan Shao asked Sun Jian to hand it over. Sun Jian insisted that he didn't have it and swore, "If I lie, I will not end up well in the future and die from a sword and arrow."

Later, when Sun Jian attacked Liu Biao, he was shot to death by random arrows, and the random stones knocked out his brains.

But what they didn't know was that Zhang Wu was a time traveler, and he knew that the great Han court would not last long.Although the current Cao Cao will not usurp the throne, how long can Cao Cao live?When Cao Cao dies, Cao Pi can't control so much. By then, the big man will be gone, and Zhang Wu will not be considered as breaking his oath.

Therefore, Zhang Wu specifically mentioned two key points, one is that the big man exists for a day, and the other is if the emperor is still there.If the big man is here, I am the Hanchen. If the big man is gone, then I have nothing to do.After Cao Pi usurped the throne, how long will the emperor of Han live?Even if Cao Pi doesn't kill Emperor Xian for the time being, will he still keep Emperor Xian when he is about to be wiped out by Zhang Wu?
If it doesn't work, Zhang Wu can think of a way.
