Inside the wings, the atmosphere was extremely dreary.
Liu Bei sat in the center, and Zhuge Liang, Guan Yu, Zhang Fei and Sun Gan were separated.
Except for Zhuge Liang, everyone was full of gloomy faces, but Zhuge Liang kept shaking the feather fan with a leisurely expression.
After a long time, Liu Bei broke the silence and asked astringently: "Xiangyang can really hold for two or three years" Zhuge Liang smiled helplessly: "The number of two or three years is calculated according to the amount of material reserves in the city, but it is just to comfort Your Majesty."
Now the people in Xiangyang City are not even, the siege equipment of the Yan thief is excellent, unparalleled in the world, and there are many generals, and the strategists are like clouds, and it is a miracle that Xiangyang City can hold for three months.
Unless " Liu Bei asked urgently: "Unless anything" Zhuge Liang said: "Unless the lord makes a decision, takes advantage of the Cai family's unpreparedness, raises troops overnight, kills the Cai family, besieges the palace, controls the military power of the entire Xiangyang, and attributes the defense of the four gates of Xiangyang to the overall planning of the lord, then Liang is sure to hold on for at least half a year; In this way, the book can be repaired to Sun Ce, who knows the benefits and disadvantages, and persuades him to raise troops from Yangzhou to attack the Central Plains; He also ordered Chen Zhi to recruit troops and horses in Hanzhong County, raid Nanyang County, and threaten Xudu, so that the Yan thieves were attacked on three sides, and perhaps the siege of Xiangyang was relieved. ” Liu Bei shook his head again and again and said: "No, no, the disadvantage of the Yan thief lies in the righteousness of usurping the Han and losing it, if I do this coercive thing, I will also lose justice, even if I control Jingzhou, how can I fight against the Yan thief."
Zhuge Liang seemed to have known that Liu Bei had said this, and smiled faintly: "The lord is benevolent and righteous, and the lower officials admire, in addition to this plan, there is still a plan that can relieve the siege of the lord." ” Liu Bei's eyes lit up, and he hurriedly said: "Come quickly" Zhuge Liang said leisurely: "The Yan thieves surround the three queyi, and the lord can lead the troops to withdraw from the south gate overnight and rush to Jiangxia."
As soon as the lord withdrew, Xiangyang broke itself.
His Majesty was already a candle in the wind, and when Xiangyang was broken, it was when His Majesty died in fright, then the lord could support the eldest prince to succeed him in Jiangxia.
Xiakou Huangzu and Changsha Pan Gongzi are all people who support the great prince, so they can control most of Jingzhou.
The lord's descendants are soldiers and horses, plus the soldiers and horses of the eldest prince in Jiangxia and Huang Zu in Xiakou, as well as the soldiers and horses of Liu Pan in Changsha, and the soldiers and horses of Liu Pan of the prince of Pan, can also get sixty or seventy thousand people. and then unite with Jiangdong Sun Ce, there will be no less than 200,000 soldiers and horses to resist the Yan thieves in the Yangtze River moat.
The Yan thief has no more than 300,000 soldiers and horses, and its naval army is only newly built, so it is barely okay to deal with Cai Mao's incompetent, but if he competes with Huang Zu and the Jiangdong naval army on the Yangtze River, he will inevitably be defeated.
As soon as the Yan thief was defeated, the lord and Sun Ce's allied army took advantage of the victory to pursue the attack, and its vitality would be greatly damaged, so that the Southern Han Dynasty, the Eastern Han Dynasty, and the Northern Yan were separated, and the momentum of the peak was established."
Liu Bei fell into deep contemplation after saying this, and said helplessly for a long time: "Fleeing before a fight is not a gentleman's doing, and this plan is not appropriate after all."
This time, Zhuge Liang was anxious: "When the lord leaves the city, it is when Xiangyang is broken, when His Majesty dies, and the Cai family has surrendered the city to the Yan thieves, and his words are no longer credible."
In this way, who dares to assert whether the lord is defeated and retreated, or whether he takes the initiative to withdraw his troops and is constantly interrupted, but suffers from the chaos" Liu Bei's face was full of hesitation, and he couldn't make a decision after all, but said, "You wait to retreat first, let me think about it."
Zhuge Liang had no choice but to retreat with everyone.
Zhuge Liang rode a four-wheeled car, surrounded by a group of guards, and left Liu Bei's temporary mansion for a long time, still unwilling to turn around and sigh fiercely.
In the west of Xiangyang City, in an inconspicuous alley, there is an inconspicuous small inn.
The sun shone obliquely in the courtyard of the inn, and there was silence in the courtyard, only two men were feeding the horses, and there was a burst of laughter and scolding from time to time in the upstairs wing.
At this moment, a slender man, with a broken hat, rushed into the door of the inn, walked into the lobby and nodded to the shopkeeper who was settling accounts behind the counter, and hurried upstairs and pushed open a door.
The three people in the room were throwing dice around the desk, and there were more or less copper coins piled up in front of each other.
On a couch against the wall, a man covered his head with a quilt and was sleeping.
"Boss, good news" The slender man pushed the door in, and shouted at the man in black in the middle of the case.
The black-clothed man in the middle, who was obviously the leader of this place, couldn't help but light up when he heard the slender man's announcement, and pushed the pile of copper coins high in front of him, and said, "Come quickly, if it's really good news, this money will reward you." ” The slender man hurried close to the man's ear and whispered something.
The man's eyes lit up, and he immediately got up and walked to the couch, and pushed the man who was sleeping with his head covered: "Old Xu, it's time to get up, Hao San, this kid has brought great news." ” The "old Xu" on the couch was not old at all, but he was in his twenties, and after being pushed awake by the man, he lifted the quilt and asked dissatisfiedly: "General Shi, what is the movement?"
The black-clothed leader was none other than Shi A, the commander of the Yan Army's Black Panther Guard, who was ordered by Gongsun Bai to take advantage of the chaos to infiltrate Xiangyang City before besieging the city, but it was Xu Shu who fell asleep on the couch.
Compared with Pang Tong, Guo Jia and Sima Yilai, Xu Shu was a half-way strategist, he was a ranger when he was a teenager, he was good at swordsmanship, strong in martial arts, and very familiar with Xiangyang City, so he became the military advisor of this operation, and Shi A discussed everything with him.
After listening to Shi A and Hao San's narration, Xu Shu's brows frowned slightly: "The puppet palace actually has a tunnel leading into it."
Hao San hurriedly said: "Although this news is sold by a drunkard to a lowly position, the last general has also personally checked it, and there is indeed a tunnel leading into it, standing at the end of the tunnel, you can hear the voices of the palace maid and the eunuch on your head." ” These Black Panther Guards were all confirmed by Emperor Yan with "immortal art", so what Hao San said naturally would not be false, Xu Shu stared at him and asked, "Where did the drunkard go?"
Hao San showed a cruel look in his eyes, and sneered: "This person is not a good citizen, so naturally let him disappear forever." ” Xu Shu nodded slightly, and said resolutely: "Very good, don't enter the tiger's den, you can get the tiger, go and investigate first, maybe there will be a harvest." ” As night fell, in a dilapidated courtyard somewhere in the southeast corner of the Southern Han Imperial Palace, Xu Shu, Shi A and others, all dressed in black, flashed in like ghosts, and stopped next to a dry well.
Hao San moved away from the boulder pressed at the mouth of the well, revealing the swarthy wellhead, and everyone put down the rope, held the fire candle, and climbed the rope down the wall of the well, leaving only three or four people to watch the movement in the courtyard in the dark.
After going down to the bottom of the dry well, the inside suddenly widened, and a tunnel that was more than one person tall and enough for two or three people to enter side by side appeared in front of everyone, and there were enough vents in it, and there was no dull feeling at all.
Everyone held the candles and walked all the way, turning left and right, and after about two or three miles, it seemed that they were getting closer and closer to the ground, and they could faintly hear the sound of talking on the ground coming from the ventilation hole.
Suddenly, someone sighed, and everyone looked up, only to see that there was a fork in the road ahead, which converged at an oblique angle with the passage they were walking to form a road, leading to the front.
Hao San said: "This road seems to lead to the south of the city, and the small day is in a hurry, and it has not been explored. ” Shi A and Xu Shu also had no intention of finding the root cause, and led everyone to continue to move forward, and soon arrived not far from the end of the tunnel, and then everyone heard a strange sound.
It was a blood-pumping sound, although the volume was deliberately lowered, but it was still so bone-eater, and everyone in the passionate tunnel was from the past, even if they were not married, they were not young children, so they were naturally no strangers to this kind of voice.
Xu Shu turned his head suddenly, looked at the people with evil smiles on their faces, turned to Hao San and asked, "Are you sure you didn't bring the wrong place?"
Hao San hurriedly said: "The last general has the right direction, and it is indeed within the pseudo-palace, and there will be no mistake." ” Xu Shu smiled: "Interesting, interesting, there is only Liu Biao who can do this openly in the pseudo-palace, and now Liu Biao is terminally ill, there must be one of them."
Before he finished speaking, he had already hurried up the ladder to the end, and struggled to lift the top cover, this strategist with more than 70 troops, with a lot of strength in his hands, reluctantly lifted the top cover, only to hear a loud noise and the screams of men and women, a large hole was suddenly revealed in the top of his head, and everyone walked in the dim tunnel for a long time, and was suddenly dazzled by the bright light that shone inside. said that it was too late, it was fast, Xu Shu had already raised his sword and jumped up, and then Shi A also led everyone to rise up.
In the bright room, two men and women in full body were holding the quilt, slumped on the silk carpet, looking at this group of uninvited guests in horror, their faces were already white with fright, and there was no blood.
The people who jumped out of the tunnel were also stunned by the fragrant picture in front of them.
Xu Shu walked forward slowly, staring at the young man tightly, and suddenly showed an extremely interesting look on his face, and couldn't help laughing: "Zida, don't come to harm" The frightened young man raised his head in astonishment, and finally recognized Xu Shu in front of him, and said in a lost voice: "Senior Brother Yuanzhi, it's you" Xu Shu suddenly laughed so hard that his mouth couldn't close his mouth, walked up to the man, pressed the young man's shoulder, didn't let him stand up, and said with a smile: "I can't imagine that the third son of the Jingxiang famous family, the piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, all of them are fine, and the ability to seduce women is so extraordinary, it actually involves the palace, admire, admire."
After speaking, there was murder in his eyes, and he pointed to the naked child curled up in the quilt next to him, and asked, "Who is this woman?"
This person is actually a person from the Kuai clan of the Jingxiangwang clan, the third son-in-law of Kuai Liang, Kuai Lang, the word Zida.

He studied at Lumen Academy with Xu Shu, not only was he handsome, but also the piano, chess, calligraphy and painting are a must, and he called himself the four idiots.
"Senior brother smiled, this woman is just an ordinary palace maid."
Kuai Lang said urgently.
Xu Shu snorted, drew his sword with a choked sound, put it on his neck, and said in a deep voice: "Give you a chance to correct it, otherwise today next year will be your death day." ” That Kuai Lang was so frightened that his soul flew away, and he hurriedly said: "Senior brother, stop, this is Cai Yu, the queen of the Southern Han Dynasty." ” As soon as the words fell, everyone was stunned, looking at each other, unable to believe their eyes.
Xu Shu raised his eyes to look at the woman, and saw that her face was really good, her skin was like congealed fat, even though her face was full of panic, her eyebrows were still full of charm, and then she remembered the bone-eroding voice just now, and couldn't help but laugh again: "Okay, junior brother, you can change your name to the five idiots, and you can complete the piano, chess, poetry, and painting."
But it doesn't matter, Liu Biao's old cow that is about to die of illness is no longer able to cultivate, and the junior brother will not let this great field be barren, which can be regarded as helping others as long as the junior brother promises the foolish brother one thing, this matter will be revealed, and I will treat it as if I haven't seen anything, and I will never spread it. ” Kuai Lang's face was already full of despair, but when he heard Xu Shu's words at this moment, he couldn't help but be overjoyed, and said urgently: "As long as the senior brother is willing to raise his noble hand and spare the life of the foolish brother, don't say one thing, even if it is a thousand pieces, it doesn't matter." ” Xu Shu laughed and said, "This matter is easy for you, and it will not damage you and your family's reputation in the slightest. ” Na Kuai Lang was originally worried that Xu Shu would say something like "borrowing his head" or asking him to cut off his small head to make an example, but at this moment, a big stone fell in his heart, and he became more and more excited and excited, but he almost didn't call Xu Shu's father, and said urgently: "Please also ask my senior brother to teach" Xu Shu said with a smile: "Senior brother's Danqing's skill is a must for Jing Xiang, but I just want a painting
