- Zhang Fei rushed all the way back to Yecheng from the front line of the plains. Sure enough, he came here just for this matter.
Liu Bei wanted to tell Zhang Fei how important the Yellow River defense line was. If Guan Yu were replaced by several counties on the north bank, the entire Han Kingdom would be in danger of being destroyed.
But when the words came to his lips, Liu Bei swallowed them back.
Because Liu Bei knows Zhang Fei very well, to Zhang Fei, no matter how important the country is, they are not as important as their brotherhood. If Liu Bei said that, it would definitely make Zhang Fei extremely chilled.
Now that Guan Yu has been lost, Zhang Fei is the most capable general in the Han Dynasty, and Liu Bei is not willing to let this leader's heart go cold.
"If you can exchange three counties for the life of your second brother, your Majesty, why should you hesitate? Just agree." Zhang Fei urged impatiently.
Liu Bei was forced to panic, and with anxiety in his heart, he suddenly rolled his eyes and seemed to have thought of a countermeasure.
"Well, to be honest with Yide, after I learned about Yan Thief's proposal, I wanted to agree on the spot, but Prime Minister Zhuge insisted on it. After Prime Minister Zhuge's persuasion, I had to put the matter aside for the time being. Put it down." Liu Bei followed suit and blamed Zhuge Liang.
When Zhang Fei heard this, he couldn't help but look angry: "Zhuge Kongming doesn't know the sworn brotherhood between my second brother and Your Majesty? How could he be like this?"
"Prime Minister Zhuge said that once Li Yang is lost, there will be a gap in our defense line on the north bank of the Yellow River. Yecheng will face the Chu army. If the plain counties are also ceded to the Yan thieves, then the entire Yellow River defense line will be lost. At that time, hundreds of thousands of Chu troops will advance northward, and it will be difficult for our army to defend them. "
Liu Bei originally thought that although Zhang Fei valued brotherhood, he also knew that military matters were important. After he used Zhuge Liang's name to explain to Zhang Fei the dangers of ceding the counties on the north bank, Zhang Fei wanted to protect the country. Maybe this idea will be given up.
But after Zhang Fei listened to Liu Bei's words, instead of giving up his thoughts, he patted his chest and said: "It doesn't matter if the counties on the north bank are lost. As long as the second brother can return home safely, I will work together with the second brother to regain the ceded territory for your majesty." The counties are like that.¡±
Zhang Fei is very crazy, so crazy that at this moment, anyone who doesn't take Yan Liang seriously will think that he and Guan Yu are brave. You can defeat Yan Liang.
Liu Bei sighed bitterly: "Yide, your courage is commendable, but when Yan Liang was weak, it was difficult for us to suppress him. Now that he is so strong, do you really think that, Yide? In the case of losing the geographical advantage? , with the strength of our Han country alone, do you and Yunchang still have a chance to repel the Yan thief? "
Zhang Fei was shaken by the rhetorical question.
Although Zhang Fei has a fiery temperament, his military skills are first-class, and he does not know the importance of geographical location to the outcome of a war.
Now the number of Han¡¯s troops is not as large as that of Chu. The number of good generals is not as good as that of Chu State, and its economic strength is not as good as that of Chu State. The only thing that has an advantage is the surging Yellow River. Moreover, this originally advantageous defense line has lost the important stronghold of Liyang.
If the plain counties are lost again, the Yellow River defense line will be lost. Han will lose its only advantage. How could Zhang Fei not know?
Although Zhang Fei hated Yan Liang very much, Zhang Fei had to admit Yan Liang's strength.
Zhang Fei¡¯s initial urge to save his brother was suppressed as soon as he said these few words to Liu Bei.
"But, if you don't take the risk, are you going to sit back and watch your second brother being harmed by the gangster?" Zhang Fei gritted his teeth and said.
Liu Bei was speechless and didn't know how to deal with it.
What can he say? Should he tell Zhang Fei about the Dali principle of putting the country first and say that he still has to sacrifice Guan Yu for the sake of the Han Dynasty?
In that case, Zhang Fei would not only not understand, but would think he was heartless.
Just when Liu Bei didn't know how to respond, the eunuch outside the palace came to report that Prime Minister Zhuge was outside seeking an audience.
Liu Bei was worried about how to deal with Zhang Fei. Zhuge Liang's arrival could be regarded as a relief for him. He hurriedly called for Zhuge Liang to join.
A moment later, Zhuge Liang walked into the palace and was surprised to see Zhang Fei there.
"When did the general of chariots and cavalry return to Yecheng when he was not on the front line in the plains?" Zhuge Liang asked curiously.
Before Zhang Fei could speak, Liu Bei rushed to say: "Yide is here just for the matter of Yun Chang. Prime Minister, you previously persuaded me not to agree to Yan Thief's proposal and exchange several plain counties for Yun Chang. Yide You are questioning me about this matter, please explain why I can't agree to Yan Thief."
Zhuge Liang was stunned for a moment, with a confused look on his face. He couldn't understand what Liu Bei meant.
"Prime Minister Zhuge, my second brother and Your Majesty are brothers and sisters. Why not trade three counties for his life? You?Why do you want to obstruct His Majesty? "Zhang Fei yelled at Zhuge Liang dissatisfied.
Zhuge Liang was shocked again and became more and more confused. He couldn't help but look at Liu Bei, only to see Liu Bei winking secretly at him.
After a moment of confusion, Zhuge Liang suddenly realized what was going on.
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, you know that Yide has a hot temper, but you still blame this matter on me. You have hurt me"
Zhuge Liang complained secretly in his heart and cast a complaining look at Liu Bei. Liu Bei also had a bitter look on his face, looking helpless.
Zhuge Liang had no choice but to cough a few times, and then repeated the reasons Liu Bei just said to Zhang Fei.
Zhang Fei said boldly: "Even if the Yellow River defense line is lost, it will be very detrimental to our army. Even if the Yan thieves are extremely powerful, I firmly believe that as long as the second brother can come back alive, we brothers will work together and fight to the death under your majesty's leadership. We will definitely win the final victory.¡±
Zhang Fei was determined. Even if the country was in danger of overthrow, he still had to rescue Guan Yu.
Liu Bei's face became increasingly bitter, and he repeatedly signaled to Zhuge Liang, suggesting that he should think of something to say in order to persuade the persistent Zhang Fei.
Zhuge Liang came to meet the emperor just to tell Liu Bei that he had no choice but to delay Yan Liang's trick, ignore Yi Ji's proposal, and finally let the matter go to waste.
But Zhuge Liang did not expect that Zhang Fei's friendship with Guan Yu was much deeper than that of Liu Bei, and he would even rush back from the front line at night just to persuade Liu Bei to accept Yan Liang's proposal.
Now faced with Zhang Fei¡¯s questioning and Liu Bei¡¯s pushback, Zhuge Liang was in a dilemma and really didn¡¯t know what to do.
In desperation, Zhuge Liang sighed secretly and handed over to Liu Bei: "Yun Chang is the pillar of the country and his Majesty's brother, and the Yellow River defense line is related to the great Han Dynasty. Which of the two is more important? Based on my experience, It is really difficult to make a correct judgment. I believe that only Your Majesty can decide."
With no other choice, Zhuge Liang kicked the ball back to Liu Bei.
Liu Bei frowned suddenly, a trace of complaint flashed in his eyes, complaining that Zhuge Liang did not share his worries.
Zhuge Liang pretended not to know, and would rather Liu Bei complained than take the blame.
At this time, Zhang Fei no longer questioned Zhuge Liang, but looked at Liu Bei eagerly, his eyes full of expectation.
The look in Zhang Fei's eyes made Liu Bei feel like a light was on his back, and he was extremely embarrassed.
He really couldn¡¯t imagine how disappointed and angry Zhang Fei would be if he refused Zhang Fei¡¯s invitation.
And then, the entire Han Kingdom will know that in order to save the country, Liu Bei chose to sacrifice his sworn brother Guan Yu.
Having suffered repeated blows to his reputation, Liu Bei could no longer bear the abuse again.
After being in embarrassment for a long time, Liu Bei could only sigh: "This matter is of great importance. Yide, please don't be impatient. Let me think about it carefully."
Liu Bei still did not dare to publicly deny Zhang Fei's request, so he could only continue to adopt perfunctory measures.
Zhang Fei's expectant expression disappeared in an instant, and a disappointed expression appeared on his face in an instant.
In Zhang Fei¡¯s view, with Guan Yu and Liu Bei¡¯s brother Guan Yu, Liu Bei should agree without hesitation. Only in this way can he show his great love and righteousness.
Liu Bei said that he had to think about it again, which meant that Liu Bei might reject Yan Liang's proposal and not be prepared to rescue Guan Yu.
However, Guan Yu is our brother. We should not hesitate to save our brothers. How can we still think about it?
"Your Majesty, the second brother's life is in danger every day he is in the Chu camp, how can we delay it any longer!" Zhang Fei shouted excitedly.
Liu Bei sighed with a bitter face: "Yide, why don't I want to rescue Yun Chang as soon as possible, but you have to know that I am not only Yun Chang's brother, but also the emperor of the Han Dynasty. Every single thing I have done Decisions must be made for the country of the Han Dynasty and for the people of the world. As a cavalry general of the Han Dynasty, you should be able to understand my difficulties. "
Liu Bei was also a little unhappy when Zhang Fei questioned him, and his tone became tougher.
¡°Your Majesty, but¡ª¡ª¡±
"Forget it, I will consider this matter. You are carrying a heavy burden, Yide. How can you leave the front line without permission? You should go back to Pingyuan County quickly. If the Chu army gets the news and takes the opportunity to attack, you will miss the important military event. It¡¯s not good.¡±
Liu Bei didn't want to tangle with Zhang Fei anymore, so he issued an order to expel Zhang Fei.
Zhang Fei had no choice but to retreat sadly.
"That minister also resigned first "Zhuge Liang was afraid of Liu Bei's blame, so he followed Zhang Fei and resigned.
The two ministers withdrew and the imperial study was empty. Liu Bei took a long breath and said bitterly: "Guan Yunchang, Guan Yunchang, if you really regard me as a brother, you should kill yourself as soon as possible. Don't drag me down anymore." ¡±
¡¡
Hundreds of miles away, Liyang.
In the cold prison, Guan Yu leaned against the wall with disheveled hair, his face pale and gloomy.
His mouth, which was beaten to pieces, is still red and swollen, and his body is full of stench. His appearance has completely lost the arrogance of the past.
A bright moon shone in from the prison window, illuminating Guan Yu's gloomy face.
Guan Yu raised his head, looked at the bright moon outside the window, and murmured: "Your Majesty, Your Majesty, I, Guan Yu, have survived until now just to stay useful and continue to serve you. I will definitely support you until you rescue me. On that day, Your Majesty, Guan Yu believes in you"
