Yinhou of the Three Kingdoms

The next day, dawn.

The generals and soldiers of the Shu army came out of the camp early, and they all gathered in front of the mansion where Liu Bei was staying, waiting for the news.

At that time Xu Shu walked past the soldiers and looked at the eager, hopeful, or angry eyes of the crowd, but his face was neither happy nor sad, and he finally came to this step.

"Xu Yuan is begging to see His Majesty, please tell me!" Xu Shu came to the gate of the mansion and said to the elite soldiers standing guard.

"Master Xu, wait a moment!"

The elite soldier Bai Yu was tall and straight, and said to Xu Shu with a resolute face, then turned and walked towards the mansion.

"Whoo~"

Xu Shu stared intently at the animal head on the gate of the mansion, but he had all kinds of feelings in his heart. The great rivers and mountains in the land of Sichuan and Shu would eventually be destroyed in the hands of himself and others.

"Your Majesty, please!"

Xu Shu felt at ease when the elite soldiers of Baiyu who delivered the order used honorifics.

……

in the room.

After Xu Shu saluted Liu Bei who was seated above, he asked straight to the point.

"Your Majesty, the current situation is like a house on fire, and if we are not careful, we will be swallowed up!"

Liu Bei looked solemn, staring straight at Xu Shu.

"I heard that Wei Jun has already passed through Pei County. If we wait for them to cross Mianzhu and enter Chengdu, then our last chance will be gone!"

Hearing Xu Shu's words, Liu Bei's face changed a little.

"The last chance?"

Liu Bei asked hesitantly, where is the chance of winning now.

"That's right! Last chance..." Xu Shu nodded affirmatively.

Seeing that Liu Bei's attention was attracted by him, Xu Shu breathed a sigh of relief, and then said slowly.

"Your Majesty, Huang Hao's letter yesterday disturbed the army, and now they are all waiting for His Majesty's orders outside the gate of the mansion. If it weren't for His Majesty's benevolent government and power for many years, they would have rushed into the gate of the mansion long ago! "

Xu Shu said bluntly, Liu Bei frowned when he heard it, but he had to admit that what the other party said made sense.

"The minds of the armies are complicated. Some are concerned about the Chengdu family and are unwilling to fight, while others want to continue fighting for the sake of the Han Dynasty. At this time, your majesty needs to make a decision!"

"The military has always been a place of strict discipline. An unstable military spirit is a big taboo in the military. If these two thoughts are allowed to be ignored, I'm afraid the army will fall apart!"

Xu Shu's words were definitely not alarmist, because Liu Bei saw and heard the scene yesterday.

"Yuan Zhi, if you have any plan to defeat the enemy, just tell me!"

Liu Bei turned around and looked up, a pair of red eyes were placed on the opponent.

"Fake surrender!"

Xu Shu was silent for a moment, his clear eyes met Liu Bei's.

"How to feign surrender?"

Liu Bei was not as angry as he imagined, or he himself understood that there was nowhere to go.

"Divide the troops, surrender to Chengdu, and then join forces inside and outside to take Chengdu!" Xu Shu said simply and clearly.

"This is the last chance to recover Chengdu. I heard that Wei Junzhong has a divine weapon, and it is no problem to break mountains and crack rocks. If a large army storms Chengdu, I am afraid that the flesh and blood of the soldiers will not be able to stop those divine weapons!"

Xu Shu directly ignored Liu Bei's frowning, and told another fact that Liu Bei didn't want to hear.

"Your Majesty, this is the first, and the second is to abandon Chengdu and go to the southern counties!"

Liu Bei's hesitation was within Xu Shu's expectation, anyone who has changed from a high-ranking emperor to the present will hesitate when facing the choice of life and death.

What's more, Liu Bei, the rising emperor who weaves mats and sells shoes, his talents are probably not enough to support a dynasty, otherwise he would not be displaced for the first half of his life.

Adviser!

The reason why Liu Bei was able to achieve the achievements of Emperor Shu is that he let go of his prejudices and realized the importance of counselors.

But now, Xu Shu is the only counselor he can rely on, but...Xu Shu's wisdom is not bad.

"If you abandon Chengdu, those soldiers outside the gate may feel resentful!" Liu Bei saw it very clearly. Since Ma Chao led the Wei army to attack Mianzhu, and Jiange and other places were captured by the Wei army, the momentum of the Shu army has plummeted. Liu Chan's surrender made the situation worse, directly destroying the last hope in the hearts of the soldiers.

hope.

Therefore, if Liu Bei also made the idea of ​​abandoning Chengdu and turning to Nanzhong at this moment, I am afraid that the [-] troops will immediately mutiny.

"Attack Chengdu!"

It is the helplessness of the emperor to do it knowingly that it cannot be done!

"Your Majesty, it's better soon than later!"

Seeing that Liu Bei had made a decision, Xu Shu solemnly suggested.

"Since this plan is Yuan Zhi's idea, then it's up to you to divide the troops, immediately divide the troops into two groups, and send the troops to Chengdu!"

So far, Liu Bei has no better way, so Xu Shu, the guard of honor, is wise enough to help him get back to work.

"Your Majesty, I wonder who you sent to Chengdu to feign surrender?"

Xu Shu nodded heavily at Liu Bei, and asked again.

"..."

Liu Bei was silent for a while after hearing this, and kept looking at Xu Shu with his probing eyes.

"Even if Yuan Zhi proposed, why not let Yuan Zhi lead the army to go?

I lead the army to silence the drums and flags, and follow behind, and then the inside and outside should cooperate to take back Chengdu! "

Liu Bei stared closely at Xu Shu's eyes, but secretly thought in his heart that the person who pretended to surrender must not only be capable, but also be loyal to himself.

"This……"

Hearing Liu Bei's words, Xu Shu suddenly fell silent.

"how?"
