The Three Kingdoms

A luxurious mansion with a letter written: Peihou Mansion.

After Liu Bei was defeated in Chu, he led the remnants of the army to seek refuge in Shu. Liu Zhang, king of Shu, personally conferred the title of Marquis of Pei and enfeoffed Peicheng. He was then called back to Chengdu and then put on hold.

The soldiers and horses under his command are all guarding the eastern gateway, Peicheng, for the Kingdom of Shu.

It seems that he is like a bereaved dog. After being taken in by Liu Zhang and suppressing the remaining value, he is still on the side without paying attention, hiding like a canary all the time.

And Liu Bei seems to have accepted his fate.

Since Liu Bei entered Chengdu, he has not participated in any government affairs of the court of Shu Kingdom, nor contacted any ministers in the court. He fished, read books, lingered among fireworks, listened to songs and danced every day, and enjoyed himself a lot.

As the days passed, Shu seemed to have forgotten the existence of such a person.

This day, morning.

Under the light of the morning sun, the courtyard of Peihou Mansion is full of vitality, with hundreds of flowers blooming, winter is passing and spring is coming, and the winter of Shu Kingdom has gradually passed.

Wearing a brocade robe, Liu Bei sat beside the lake in the courtyard, holding a fishing rod in his hand.Looking at the lakeside, he was concentrating on fishing, exuding a kind of peace and tranquility.

"Lord!"

At this time, Zhuge Liang wore a long robe.Wearing a scarf on his head, he walked in with light steps, and whispered in his ear.

"Kong Ming, wait a moment, this fish will be hooked soon!"

Hearing this, Liu Bei didn't look back, and was still staring intently at the lakeside, catching his own fish.

"No!" Zhuge Liang glanced at the lakeside, nodded, and then stood quietly aside.

"Hooked!"

In just a few breaths, Liu Bei pulled hard, hoisted up a carp, and said with a big laugh: "Hahaha. I have been staring at it for a whole morning, and let it eat the bait and run away several times, but it still Hooked!"

"My lord is so elegant!" Zhuge Liang narrowed his eyes slightly and said in admiration.

Now Liu Bei is just a downcast person, no one pays attention to him in Shu, and everyone almost thinks he is decadent, but Zhuge Liang knows that he is like a patient hunter, calm and waiting for an opportunity.

Liu Bei's unchanging demeanor.He admired it.

"Hehe, it's just for fun!" Liu Bei put down his fishing rod, smiled, and looked at Zhuge Liang.He said with a pun: "Kong Ming, this fishing is also a knowledge. If someone wants to catch it, he will never slip through the net!"

"My lord is wise!"

Zhuge Liang's eyes lit up slightly.

Liu Bei handed over the fishing rod and the fish that had been hoisted to a soldier, and then patted his robe.Standing up, looking at Zhuge Liang, he asked, "Kong Ming, it's early in the morning, and you are in such a hurry to come to Jiang X, do you have something important to report?"

"My lord, the latest news is that Liu Zhang is going to call Wei Yan back!"

Zhuge Liang walked in and whispered in his ear.

"Wen Chang has been stationed at the front line in Hanzhong, why did Liu Zhang call him back all of a sudden?" Liu Bei frowned when he heard this, his face was a little gloomy.

"My lord, this shouldn't be a bad thing. In December last year, Wen Chang sent troops out of the Jiange, from Baishui Pass, almost to Beggar Yang, and defeated Zhang Lu's [-] soldiers all the way. Liu Zhang was overjoyed, and probably let him come back to receive a reward. of!"

Zhuge Liang quickly explained.

"Awarded?"

Liu Bei was even more puzzled: "Didn't Liu Zhang always distrust Wen Chang?"

"It is true that Liu Zhang has never had much trust in General Wei Yan, and he even sent several officers into his army, but now he wants to reward him!"

Zhuge Liang smiled coldly, a scornful light flashed in his eyes, and said: "It seems that Wen Chang's record has awakened some of his ambitions. Some guesses, he wants to regain Hanzhong, so he has to reuse Wen Chang !"

A great king who holds the Kingdom of Shu in his hand, but lacks the courage and ambition that he should have. In Zhuge Liang's view, Liu Zhang is just a lucky man, and he is not worthy of being a great king at all.

"So, our chance has come?"

Liu Bei was a little excited immediately, and a scorching light burst out of his eyes, as bright as the sun and the moon.

Wei Yan was one of his earliest pawns buried in the Kingdom of Shu. Now he has tens of thousands of soldiers under his command, and they are all elites in battle. As long as he returns to Chengdu, it will be much easier for him to control Chengdu City.

"Ok!"

Zhuge Liang was also a little excited. He persuaded Liu Bei to enter Chengdu. During this year, he made various arrangements in Chengdu in order to have a way to successfully succeed the Kingdom of Shu.

In Liu Bei's ear, he said: "In Chengdu, there are a total of [-] elite soldiers stationed. Among them, the captain of Xicheng has been bought by Chen Deng. The [-] elite soldiers under his command are already ours. As long as Wen Chang's soldiers If horses can enter Chengdu, we can completely control Chengdu!"

"it is good!"

Liu Bei was overjoyed when he heard this.

But he quickly calmed down. He has been running around for the next year, and he has experienced countless times between gains and losses. He has already tempered a calm heart. He asked in a low voice: "By the way, Peicheng How is the situation now?"

"Wu Guo is watching very closely!" Zhuge Liang sighed when he heard the words, and said: "The recruits we trained with Wu Jun before, when Tai Shici killed them, most of them were suppressed, and there were not many soldiers in Peicheng. , unless you make a surprise attack, you won't be able to come in!"

"Wu country!"

Liu Bei's face was grim, his fists were clenched, the veins on the back of his hands were exposed, and his whole body was filled with a cold murderous aura.

He will never forget the battle of Jingzhou until his death.

Wu Guo not only defeated him, but also forced him into a notoriety of backlash against his master. Using his hands to get out of Liu Biao was Wu Guo's most brilliant move.

If Liu Biao hadn't died at the hands of Liu Bei, Wu would not have completely controlled Jingzhou in just one year.

Relying on his notoriety, Wu's prestige has been achieved.

As long as he thought of this, he would have an urge to fight Sun Quan desperately.

"My lord, it's better for the soldiers and horses in Peicheng to stay still or not. After all, no matter whether we win Shu or not, defense of Wu is our top priority, and our top priority is to move as quickly as possible. Take Chengdu City!" Zhuge Liang said with a bow.

"Kong Ming, don't rush this matter!"

Liu Bei calmed down, thought for a while, shook his head, looked at Zhuge Liang's face, and said calmly: "I believe in your arrangement in Chengdu, and I also believe that you can change the day, but we didn't take down Shu for the sake of Wu. The state has an opportunity to take advantage of, the snipe and the clam fight each other, and the fisherman benefits, we must maintain the strongest combat power of the Shu Kingdom at the lowest cost!"

After suffering a loss and gaining wisdom, Liu Bei became more calm than before after experiencing the things in Chu State.

This year, although he didn't pay attention to anything on the surface, but with Zhuge Liang and Chen Deng by his side, he has won many people's hearts in the light and darkness.

Now he still has soldiers from Wei Yan and Peicheng outside. It is not difficult to change the day, but the Kingdom of Shu also has some confidence. Zhang Ren and Yan Yan are all powerful generals with extraordinary abilities, and they are unwaveringly loyal to the Kingdom of Shu .

Once a fight breaks out, the Kingdom of Shu will be seriously injured.

"My lord, if we want to maintain our strength, there is nothing we can do. The best way is to let Liu Zhang abdicate automatically to let the virtuous!" Zhuge Liang's eyes were dark, exuding the light of wisdom.

"It's easier said than done!"
