    Attach to Goguryeo!

    The five words "Tian Yu" were like five steel knives, deeply piercing Liu Bei's fragile dignity.

    At that time, Liu Bei had attached himself to many princes including Gongsun Zan, Tao Qian, Cao Cao, Yuan Shao, and Yuan Tan.

    He, Liu Bei, achieved his imperial career by relying on being parasitic on others, constantly accumulating capital, and seizing the opportunity.

    When Liu Bei proclaimed himself emperor in Hebei, he thought that he had finally ascended to the throne and bid farewell to the unbearable life of relying on others and looking at their faces.

    Now, those unbearable memories have become a thing of the past. Liu Bei never expected that one day, he would face a life of dependence on people's faces again.

    Liu Bei's heart was bleeding. He clenched his fist tightly and refused to let go for a long time.

    "Your Majesty, keep the green hills and don't worry about running out of firewood. We must keep ourselves useful. Only when Chu is in civil strife will we have the opportunity to make a comeback and regain the lost ground." Tian Yu persuaded hard.

    At this time, the other generals such as Xian Yufu also persuaded Liu Bei to be able to bend and stretch, and for the sake of the overall situation, it would be okay to rely on Goguryeo.

    At this time, Chen Dao said sadly and angrily: "Since ancient times, only the Hulu have relied on the Han, and how can the Han have relied on the Hulu? Your Majesty is the king of the country, how can you rely on the Goguryeo people? I think your Majesty should lead us to fight with Chu  The army fights to the death.¡±

    Liu Bei was slightly shaken and fell silent.

    "The Chu army is far superior to me. If we fight head-on, there is no chance of victory. General Chen's words will mean that your majesty will die." Tian Yu rebuked.

    Chen Dao resolutely said: "As the king of a country, even if you die in battle, you are worthy of heaven and earth, and worthy of your ancestors. I am willing to follow your majesty to the death and fight bloody battles for your majesty to the end."

    Chen Dao still has some blood in him.  He was tired of the humiliating days of retreating again and again and relying on the barbarians.

    As sad and angry as he was, he was determined to fight to the death.

    Liu Bei secretly gritted his teeth, and there was a bit of complaint in his eyes, as if he was blaming Chen Dao for his suggestion.

    "Knowing that you are outmatched, but still fighting to the death, this is the courage of an ordinary man. If Gou Jian had shown this courage of an ordinary man, how could he have accomplished the great cause of destroying Wu by lying down on the firewood and enduring the courage. Your Majesty's ambition is far greater than that of Gou Jian, how could you not tolerate this?  humiliation."

    Tian Yu was eloquent and brought out Goujian to cheer Liu Bei up.  Liu Bei's dependence on the barbarians was compared to lying on the firewood and tasting courage.

    Tian Yu¡¯s words were like giving Liu Bei a ladder, which naturally made Liu Bei shaken a lot.

    Chen Dao, on the other hand, was clumsy. He obviously had a passion for it, but he didn't know how to express it, so he could only keep silent.  I don¡¯t know what to say.

    After weighing for a long time, Liu Bei finally loosened his fist and let out a long breath.

    "What you said is true. A man should be able to bend and stretch. What's more, as the king of my country, why not retreat to Goguryeo?" Liu Bei gritted his teeth with a resolute expression.

    "Your Majesty" Chen Dao was eager to persuade him again.

    Liu Bei waved his hand.  He said decisively: "I have made up my mind, for the sake of the great man. I am willing to endure the humiliation and bear the heavy burden. You don't have to say anything more."

    Chen was helpless and had to shut his mouth.

    On the same day, Liu Bei sent Sun Qian to Goguryeo to inform the King of Goguryeo about Yan Liang's army marching eastward, and asked him to lead his troops to attach themselves to Goguryeo.

    When Goguryeo heard that the army from the Central Plains was coming and saw that Xuantu County was difficult to capture, of course they did not dare to confront the main force of Chu, so they immediately ordered all the Goguryeo troops to quickly return to the country.

    Considering Liu Bei's influence in the Han Dynasty, the King of Goguryeo also wanted to use Liu Bei's influence to expand to Youzhou in the future, so he accepted Liu Bei's dependence and allowed him to accompany the Goguryeo army to withdraw from the Goguryeo Kingdom.

    So, within a few days, Liu Bei led 20,000 remaining soldiers, as well as generals such as Chen Dao and Tian Yu, and retreated northward with the Goguryeo army.

    When Liu Bei withdrew his army, Yan Liang had already led the army from Changli and rushed to Liaodong day and night.

    A few days later, an army of 50,000 soldiers led by Yan Liang arrived at Liao Tunnel City, an important town on the west bank of the Liao River.

    At this time, L¨¹ Meng, Xu You and other military officers from the Liaodong Army had arrived at Liao Tunnel City in advance to greet their Emperor of Chu.

    "I kowtow to Your Majesty, long live my emperor, long live the emperor." In the lobby of the Liaotunfu government office, Lu Meng and Xu You led the ministers from Liaodong to kowtow to Yan Liang.

    Yan Liangping came down the steps and helped Lu Meng and others up with his own hands. He looked at these important ministers who were sticking to Liaodong with a smile, and his heroic face was filled with relief.

    "You have worked so hard for me to defend Liaodong for so many years." Yan Liang admired sincerely.

    ThatHow many years ago, Lu Meng led an expeditionary army across the ocean to seize Liaodong. From then on, they fought alone in the bitter cold land of Liaodong, far away from Chu, and built up a world.

    From the time of the expedition to the present, Yan Liang has lost count of how many years he and these outstanding generals have not seen each other. How could the emperor and his ministers not be filled with emotion when they met today.

    "I am fighting for your majesty and for Chu. It's too late to be happy and I don't feel hard at all." Lu Meng said with cupped hands.

    When we left, Lu Meng was still young, but now that we meet again, he has matured a lot.

    The commander-in-chief of the Liaodong Army really lived up to Yan Liang's high expectations for him.

    "Ziyuan, I have worked hard for you these years." Yan Liang's eyes turned to Xu You, this veteran minister with no merits.

    Xu You didn't express anything, just stroked his white beard and smiled slightly.

    Yan Liang also laughed loudly. The tacit understanding between his monarch and his ministers was so understanding that they did not need too many words to express.

    On the same day, Yan Liang crossed the Liao River and went to Xiangping City, which was not far away.

    After entering the city, Yan Liang held a banquet to reward Lu Meng and other Liaodong ministers, and to celebrate the success of the raid on Wuhuan.

    During the dinner, Yan Liang asked Lu Meng about the scenery of Liaodong, and began to consult him about attacking Goguryeo in the north and completely wiping out Liu Bei's remnant party.

    "The combat effectiveness of the Goguryeo army is not worthy of praise, but most of the cities in the country are built in the mountains and are built on dangers. The dangers are as strong as the fortified cities in the Central Plains. Over the years, I have sent troops to attack Goguryeo several times, but  They were all blocked by the mountain city and returned without success."

    Although Yan Liang¡¯s army arrived, Lu Meng was not confident and calmly analyzed the power of the Goguryeo people.

    "What about the city-breaking cannon? Can't my city-breaking cannon attack the Goguryeo mountain city?" Yan Liang asked.

    Lu Meng shook his head and said: "Although the city-breaking cannon is powerful, in my opinion, it may not be able to destroy the mountain cities of the Goguryeo people. Furthermore, Goguryeo's cities are all located in dangerous mountains, and large siege equipment such as city-breaking cannons are difficult to transport.  . I believe that if you want to destroy Goguryeo, you must be fully prepared."

    "No matter how much it costs, I will destroy Goguryeo." Yan Liang's attitude was determined.

    Yan Liang, who is familiar with history, naturally knows the threat of Liaodong to China.

    In history, the Jin Kingdom and the Manchu Qing Dynasty all rose up in the Liaodong area, and from there they swept south across the Central Plains. Even the Japanese invaders in later generations had to occupy the three provinces of Liaodong first before they could knock the pass and go south into the hinterland of China.

    Yan Liang knew very well that although the four counties in Liaodong were currently in bitter cold places, if they were not taken precautions in advance, they would sooner or later develop into a threat to the Central Plains.

    And the preventive measures that Yan Liang had to take were naturally to destroy Goguryeo, clear out the Hulu in Liaodong, and completely eliminate the source of the disaster.

    Seeing that Yan Liang was determined to destroy Goguryeo, Lu Meng and others naturally did not dare to stop him.

    "However, what Ziming said is reasonable. There are indeed differences between Goguryeo and Wuhuan and other nomadic barbarians. If you want to destroy Goguryeo, you must plan and prepare carefully." Yan Liang also remained calm and did not underestimate the enemy.

    You must know that Goguryeo was indeed a difficult country in history.

    Since the Three Kingdoms period, Goguryeo has repeatedly opposed the Central Plains Dynasty. Emperor Yang of the Sui Dynasty had a million-strong army and conquered Goguryeo three times, but all returned without success.

    Even those who were as powerful as Li Shimin and used the almost invincible Tang army to attack Goguryeo failed to succeed.

    It was not until Emperor Gaozong of the Tang Dynasty that the Tang Dynasty, in conjunction with Silla, took advantage of the civil strife in Goguryeo and wiped it out.

    History has proven that Goguryeo is indeed an extremely difficult enemy.

    "You can speak freely, I want to hear what you have to say." Yan Liang asked the ministers to speak.

    The ministers then offered their own suggestions and strategies to destroy Goguryeo.

    Just when the atmosphere of the banquet reached its climax, a royal guard suddenly walked into the hall, cupped his hands and said: "Your Majesty, an urgent report has been sent from Youzhou, and there has been a change in Bingzhou."

    ¡­¡­

    Thousands of miles away, Jinyang.

    By the Fenshui River, a high platform stands majestically, with five-color flags flying like waves.

    Tens of thousands of soldiers lined up under the stage, standing solemnly, each one looking up into the distance, as if waiting for something.

    In the main hall of Jinyang City, Sima Yi stood alone, staring at the map hanging on the screen, his face solemn, as if he was hesitating about something.

    ¡°What I did was right or wrong?¡± Sima Yi murmured to himself.

    Footsteps sounded, and someone entered the hall."Your Majesty, the auspicious time is coming. It's time to leave the city and go to the altar." The man said respectfully.

    Sima Yi looked back and saw that the person entering was none other than his confidant and friend, Jia Kui.

    "Liang Dao, is my step really the right one?" Sima Yi asked.

    Jia Kui said seriously: "I'll be honest, if your majesty wants to occupy Bingzhou to fight against Yan Liang, you must have enough benefits to make the subjects of Bingzhou loyal to your majesty, and these benefits can only be given to them by your majesty on the 9th Five-Year Plan."

    Sima Yi pondered for a long time, then without hesitation, he straightened his clothes, walked out of the hall with his head held high, took the imperial chariot, and went straight to the high platform in the south of the city.

    Sima Yi sat in the royal chariot of Gaoxian with a yellow umbrella. He knelt and knelt in the streets lined with Jinyang's subjects. He left Jinyang City and came to the high platform in the south.

    Since ancient times, it is necessary to make sacrifices to heaven and earth when becoming emperor, and Sima Yi is no exception.

    At this time, Jia Kui, Wang Chang and other Sima Yi's advisers and generals, as well as Sima Lang, Sima Fu and other relatives of the Sima family, were all lined up under the high platform, waiting for Sima Yi's arrival.

    Under the spotlight of everyone, Sima Yi ascended to the high platform and completed a series of complex rituals for proclaiming himself emperor.

    In the autumn of that year, Sima Yi built an altar in the south of Jinyang City to offer sacrifices to heaven and earth and proclaimed himself emperor.

    The name of the country is Da Jin.
