Chapter five hundred and eighty first battle in Mianzhu
"Okay! With Mr. Wei here, I feel relieved. I believe Chengdu will be as safe as Mount Tai. As for Mianzhu, I will leave it to me. I believe that even with our full defense, even if Liu He comes to the 100,000 troops, he will definitely not be able to break through in the short term."
When Zhuge Liang saw Yang Yi agreeing, he felt a little excited and full of passion. However, he thought for a moment and said, "If this time guarding Mianzhu fails, Liang will serve as the Minister of State. At that time, our country will take Duke Wei as the Minister of State. You should lead the military and civilians to protect the lord from Chengdu and retreat to Yunnan. There are 40,000 barbarian soldiers there, plus a million barbarians, and the terrain is also dangerous, which is completely enough to protect yourself."
"...No! Mr. trusts you so much, it is difficult to repay you. You will do your best to protect your lord's safety!" Yang Yi was deeply moved by Zhuge Liang's words, and hurriedly fell to the ground and said with gratitude.
Zhuge Liang nodded with satisfaction, and after everything was arranged, he immediately ordered his troops and led the crowd to support Mianzhu.
Zhuge Liang had almost no delay on the way, but when he had just arrived in Mianzhu City, he heard drums outside the city. At this time, a soldier reported that Liu He's army had arrived.
The news of the civil and military officials brought by Zhuge Liang was shocked. Liu He's army was so fast!
Even Zhuge Liang was shocked. He said to Wu Yi and others with a heavy expression: "Everyone has seen how terrifying the speed of Liu He's army is. This person is definitely a strong enemy. You must not be sluggish, and you must not be underestimated at all. Otherwise, what awaits us will be the only way to perish. Now that the bandits are in great power, we need to be careful and pass on my orders. From now on, the soldiers of the entire army can only be closed to defend and are not allowed to go out of the city to fight without authorization. Anyone who violates our orders will be killed immediately!"
"...No." Seeing that Zhuge Liang was so determined, all the generals, including Wu Yi, were all in awe and obeyed the orders.
While he was speaking, he heard the report from the soldiers that the enemy was attacking the city in large numbers. Zhuge Liang was even more shocked and immediately arranged for the generals to climb the city to defend. He also came to the city tower in person. He wanted to see Liu He and blame him for his righteousness. He also had a faint hope in his heart, hoping that Liu He could make peace with him.
When Zhuge Liang came to the city tower, he found that the drums under the city were shaking the sky, and the enemy soldiers surrounded the city from three sides like a tide. At this time, the enemy soldiers were carrying various siege tools and preparing to launch an attack on Mianzhu City.
"No wonder Liu He was called the world's number one hero. Just looking at these soldiers, I feel a little different. Alas, these people are full of energy and murderous aura, and they are obviously elites in a hundred battles."
Looking at the soldiers under Liu He, Zhuge Liang sighed in his heart. He coughed gently, calmed down, and then shouted loudly: "I wonder which general is on duty in the city? Zhuge Liang, the subordinate, is here, and requests to see the King of Qin, if he has ever approved it?"
A moment later, I saw a horse coming in a winding manner. The man on the horse was wearing silver robes and silver armor, holding a mixed iron spear, and the mount under his crotch was like a ball of flame. He was even more heroic and resolute, which made people feel heartbroken.
"I've seen the King of Qin." Zhuge Liang calmed down when he saw Liu He coming, and he quickly saluted Liu He, and at the same time he hinted at the generals under his command to prepare for defense. Then he continued: "Liang Suwen, the King is a respectful person and abides by etiquette and law. He is really the most powerful hero in the world. Therefore, our country has always respected the king, and the friendship between the two sides has a long history. However, the King has changed his course recently. First, he recruited traitors from our country, and then ignored the nobles. The two countries have always been friendly. The subordinates have always respected the king, and they actually sent troops to attack without authorization. This practice does not conform to the king's usual practice. Liang was very puzzled and asked the king to answer my doubts."
Liu He sneered and said, "How did Zhuge Kongming pretend to be confused when he understands it? My Han Dynasty is one, how can we value our two countries? It was because the rioters and traitors destroyed our country and shake our country's foundation, which led to the separatist rule of the princes and the world is in chaos. Fortunately, I depended on my ancestors to have orders, and the soldiers used their lives, and the blessing of the emperor. This was how we eliminated the division and separatism step by step, so that our Han Dynasty was unified again. Originally, Brother Xuande was a relative of my Han Dynasty and also made contributions to the unification of the Han Dynasty. Later, he left the crane immortal, which was very sad. However, after all, there were successors of the heroes. Brother Xuande was born after his death.
With his son Liu Chan, he assisted him and Guan Zhang, he finally regained his lost territory. However, for your own selfish interests, you launched a mutiny and seized the power of Guan Zhang, which caused the hero to fall into trouble. He had no choice but to flee to Chang'an. I had to accept it because I cherished talents and respected Brother Xuande. On the contrary, you are seeking power with other surnames. His heart is suspicious. Therefore, I brought troops to conquer, ask you to give up power, return to power in the court, tied yourself to Chang'an to apologize, and listen to my disposal, and you can handle it leniently. If you are stubborn, you may not only be unable to protect your life, but also affect the people of Yizhou."
"In this way, the king does not plan to resolve this matter peacefully? This is a pity. Liang was originally planning to negotiate with the king, which could also avoid a disaster of war. However, the king insisted on fighting. Liang had no choice but to accompany him. In the past, Tian Heng was not afraid of the **, and although he was defeated, he still left his name in history. Today, we will learn from the ancestor Tian Heng, resist to the death, and resolutely not surrender, and would rather be broken!"
Zhuge Liang sighed a long time, looking compassionate.
Liu He was extremely disdainful and sneered: "You expel meritorious officials and abuse your power. If you want to leave a good reputation like Tian Heng, it is absolutely impossible to die. It is better to follow my words and ask for surrender. In the future, you may have a place among the great Han officials. If you can do your best and be loyal to the court, you will inevitably leave your name in history."
"If I want me to surrender, this matter is absolutely impossible!"
Zhuge Liang snorted and said loudly: "Zhuge Liang has a great head here, you can take it yourself."
"Since that's the case, there is no need to say anything. I will pass on my order. Those who can launch an attack and capture Zhuge Liang alive will be rewarded with ten thousand taels, granted the title of marquis of ten thousand households, and promoted to five levels!" Liu He smiled faintly and announced the order loudly.
After giving the order, Liu He looked at Zhuge Liang on the top of the city and said with a smile: "Kong Ming, you used the negotiation opportunity to secretly prepare for defense matters. Do you think the Lone King doesn't know? I'm just disdainful of your small actions. Also, I can easily take your life, but I keep it and don't take it. The purpose is to capture you alive. I hope you don't commit suicide at that time and let me down. Otherwise, when I arrive in Chengdu, I will kill all your family and not leave any. In order to prove that what I said just now is not a false statement, I will take the order of the silver-robed general within five steps next to you, and I will be optimistic."
After Liu He finished speaking, he took off the eagle bow from his back, relaxed his ape's arms, and shouted lightly, and saw the bow and arrow leaving like a meteor.
The person Liu He said to take his life was a general of the Barbarian Army. His name was Yang Feng, and his martial power value had reached 72. He was considered a brave general in the current Shu Kingdom. When he saw Liu He said he wanted to take his life, he didn't care at all, because the two sides were nearly 200 steps apart, he had never heard of anyone with such ability to shoot and kill the enemy generals 200 steps away.
