Lihuang Wuxin led the imperial guards to come to the rescue, captured Fengchu alive, and forced the Shu army to retreat. This greatly increased the confidence of the soldiers and civilians in Baidi City and stabilized the chaotic situation.
Many families, wealthy businessmen, and individuals who had secret thoughts and were preparing to flee have concealed their thoughts. After all, no one wants to leave the place where they are used to living unless they have no choice!
After entering the city, Wu Xin asked Bingwuhou Liu Shang about his arrangements. Liu Shang did a good job in all aspects, and Wu Xin had no big ideas or changes. After praising him, he was ready to rest.
Feng Chu and Pang Tong, Wu Xin naturally wanted to surrender.
It's a pity that an existence of this level is basically impossible to surrender unless the force it belongs to is destroyed.
Wu Xin thought about using "Eternal Blood" to surrender, but it would take a long time, and it would subtly affect his mind and thoughts, so he couldn't rush it.
Now that the war is about to begin, Wu Xin has come all the way to be the leader and main formation. He has spent a lot of mana and energy and needs to rest and recover. This is also the main reason why Wu Xin quickly cut through the chaos to force the Shu army back and did not fight for a long time.
one.
…
While Wu Xin and Xin Wuwei were seizing the time to rest and recover, the Shu army was in a panic.
Seeing that the attack was about to be completed, Lihuang Wuxin personally led the Imperial Guards to arrive. Xinwuwei blocked the White-Er Imperial Guards. Fengchu Pangtong was instantly defeated by Lihuang and captured alive, which made everyone in the Shu army feel like they were in a dream.
However, allowing Fengchu Pang Tong, who was a military advisor, to take the lead and fight fiercely on the front lines, just as a general, was a major mistake by Shu Emperor Liu Bei and even the Shu army.
Although Pang Tong's cultivation level is extremely high, it is not a problem to fight thousands of armies alone. However, Pang Tong is not good at fighting alone. His methods are basically group attacks, but rarely targeted at individuals. Especially in bloody and cruel battlefields,
It's not enough to meet a top warrior who is brave and good at fighting.
In the Shu army camp, Shu Emperor Liu Bei and other generals sat together in silence.
Liu Bei signaled Zhuge Liang many times, but Zhuge Liang seemed unaware and pretended to be dumbfounded and did not respond. Liu Bei sighed secretly and looked around the generals in person and asked:
"Let's talk about your opinions. What should we do now? Do we really want to evacuate the Eighteenth Mansion of Xiangyang and hand over Kui Pass?"
Surprise attack, quick success.
The Shu army finally reached Baidi City and then withdrew like this. Naturally, they were unwilling to do so and found it difficult to explain to the Shu army and people.
Kuiguan is the western gateway to the Eighteen Prefectures of Xiangyang. Although Emperor Li did not let the Shu army evacuate, asking the Shu army to hand over Kuiguan is no different from asking the Shu army to evacuate. Could it be that the Shu army surrendered Kuiguan and then be surrounded in "
Are you waiting to die at home?
"..."
Zhuge Liang, Sun Qian, Jian Yong and other Shu military advisors, including generals such as Zhao Yun, Chen Dao, the Yellow Turban King Gongdu and Liu Pi, exchanged glances with each other, but still no one said a word.
Judging from the reaction of Shu Emperor Liu Bei, it is obvious that he does not want to trade Kui Guan for Feng Chu Pang Tong!
Although they are unwilling to do so, they feel that it should be changed. What do they say?
In fact, with Pang Tong's many achievements after serving the Shu Dynasty, it is more than enough to change to Kuiguan!
"I didn't expect that Li Huang would act so cruelly. He is unkind and we are unjust! How about... we also send strong generals and great monks to capture the important ministers of Dali and exchange hostages?"
Liu Bei thought for a while and continued to ask angrily. After a pause, he quickly continued:
"According to the intelligence, the Three Dukes of Lihou and Dali, as well as the ministers, etc., have just come from the land abandoned by the gods and are in Xiangyang Mansion. Their cultivation levels are very low. If we take action, we are very sure!"
The more he thought about it, the more Liu Bei felt that it was feasible. His eyes could not help but shine, his mouth was smiling, and he was full of longing.
If our side can capture the Li Queen, Sangong and other core important officials of the Dali Dynasty, and use one to exchange for Pang Tong, and the other important officials will follow the example of Li Huang, and use them to exchange for the important cities in the Eighteen Prefectures of Xiangyang, then we will not be able to conquer Dali without a single blow.
?
This is indeed a great idea!
Why didn't I think of that before...
Everyone was shocked and looked at Liu Bei with strange eyes. Zhao Yun's face changed slightly and he quickly stopped him and said: "My lord, think twice! This is absolutely not allowed!"
"Why not? Emperor Li can do it, why can't we do it?" Liu Bei spat angrily and unhappily.
"Because... the risk is too great, and the gains outweigh the losses!" Zhao Yun sighed secretly, admonishing and reminding.
Liu Bei frowned and retorted: "As long as we deploy properly and keep our whereabouts secret, the risk won't be too great, right?"
Zhuge Liang thought for a while and couldn't help but ask: "I wonder what my lord thinks of the strength of Dali's forces? For example, in terms of territory, people, army, etc., how does it compare with us, Wu Wei, Shuang Yuan, etc.?!"
Liu Bei was stunned for a moment. He didn't understand what Zhuge Liang meant, but he still responded angrily: "It's a small place, not worth mentioning. It's basically a place abandoned by gods. You're a bad guy who got shit luck! You're still young, ignorant and fearless.
How audacious!"
Everyone present felt strange. Emperor Shu's comments and personal emotions were too serious and obvious.
However, it is not too wrong. Compared with the major imperial forces, Dali's territory is indeed very small and its people are few.
Zhuge Liang did not comment, but still looked puzzled and asked: "Oh? Then why are the various forces so afraid of Dali? In the past three years, the princes fought in chaos, and still no force invaded Dali. Instead, Dali occupied the Eighteen Palaces of Xiangyang and Tiandu.
Where can we develop with peace of mind?”
"It's not because..."
Liu Bei responded without hesitation. He paused mid-sentence, stared at Zhuge Liang and asked, "What does Kong Ming mean by this?"
Zhuge Liang did not whet his appetite, and reminded people clearly: "What makes Dali fearful is that it has so many peak combat powers, and it is also low-key and mysterious! In the first three years, Emperor Li disappeared. Various forces sent countless informants, strong men, etc.
, sneaking into Tiandu and Xiangyang Mansion to investigate, spy, etc., but basically never return, the unknown is even more scary, this is the fundamental reason!"
"Well……"
Liu Bei opened his mouth and was speechless. His face was quite ugly, but he remained silent.
Zhuge Liang didn't say it clearly, but Liu Bei understood that his previous idea would not work, so he sent people to Xiangyang Prefecture to "kidnap" him. This was like beating a dog with a meat bun, and there was no return!
"Then what should we do? We sacrificed countless children and won Kuiguan in blood. Are we really going to hand it over in such a trivial way?" Liu Bei still asked unwillingly while his mind was ups and downs.
Zhuge Liang's face was expressionless, even a little expressionless, and he responded calmly: "Is it child's play? Then it depends on Kui Guan and Shi Yuan. In the heart of the lord, which one is more important! You can change it if you want. If you don't want to, it doesn't matter if you don't want to change Li Jun."
At least we can’t expel our army with the troops from Baidi City!”
"..."
Liu Bei's mouth moved several times, and he was so angry that he could not speak.
Wolong is Wolong!
It's so cool, it's so well said, it's like I didn't say it...
"Change!"
Looking around at the ministers present with sharp eyes, Liu Bei's face changed, and he gritted his teeth and shouted. He paused, sighed secretly, and ordered in a slightly slower tone:
"Send an order to the whole army to break camp and withdraw immediately! Until they withdraw from Kuiguan!"
Liu Bei is not stupid, but is extremely shrewd and scheming, no less than Wei Emperor Cao Cao. Naturally, he knows that his reaction has already chilled the officials of Shu. If he continues to hesitate, someone might sign and leave, so he can only fight.
Swallow it when your blood pressure drops, admit it!
A little impatience will mess up a big plan!
A mere Kui Pass, a drop in the bucket of the relatively vast territory of Shu, was treated as alms to that bastard Lihuang...
