The land of Bashu, Chengdu City.

The prefectures and counties here are built more grand than palaces...

Just like, the benefits of Bashu land are fully visible...

The mountains are high and the emperor is far away. Whether it was Liu Yan at that time or Liu Zhang later regarded himself as the "local emperor", and even all the chariots and horses and ceremonies are not much different from those of the emperor.

No wonder there have been rumors in Shu that an emperor is coming here.

The moon was on the eyebrows, and countless torches were lit. Zhuge Liang followed Liu Bei and slowly climbed to the palace, the highest place in the empty palace. This was once the place where Liu Zhang and his son discussed affairs with the civil and military officials in Yizhou, but... it was placed on the table.

It's not a desk, but a piano, chess, books, painting...

Just like, Liu Zhang was not interested in government affairs.

This made Liu Bei feel regretful...

Holding in his position but not being at ease with his position...

well…

Looking at everything in front of him, Liu Bei seemed to have seen his lifelong military and running around.

From Xuzhou to Jingzhou, and then to this Bashu land...

He kept repeating a cycle of reincarnation, from gain, then losing, then gaining, and finally... losing again.

Zhuge Liang was also full of emotion. How easy was it to steal such a place to settle down in front of such a powerful opponent as "Lu Ziyu".

For a moment, he seemed to see countless flying balls falling down, the Bowangpo fire...the ambush on the surface of the Chibi River!

Zhuge Liang couldn't help but shivered. When he looked again, the palace was hollow.

The cold night was silent... Only Liu Bei and Zhuge Liang stood beside the bed, with their clothes in the wind, and they overlooked the vast land of Bashu in the night, which was their place to stay.

Suddenly, Liu Bei pointed to the sky and asked, "Kong Ming, if we didn't have this flying ball, would we be today?"

Zhuge Liang pondered for a moment before replying: "Maybe there is, maybe not...but it will never be as relaxed as it is. To put it carefully, this time, it was Yizhou seized by the lord of Lu Ziyu's gang."

call…

Liu Bei let out a light breath, he turned around, narrowed his eyes that were holding back tears, and murmured: "The military advisor should not belittle himself. If the military advisor and his wife successfully cracked the flying ball method, how could our army attack and win a surprise attack.

...What's more, military advisors are required to mediate with various Yizhou clans during this operation. Isn't this a huge contribution?"

Liu Bei's heart is like a mirror...

Huang Yueying successfully imitated the hot air balloon, and the raid of the hot air balloon is the key.

But, in fact, uniting the Yizhou clan is the key.

You should know that there are two factions in Yizhou, the Dongzhou faction led by "Fa Zheng" and "Li Yan", and the Yizhou local faction led by "Zhang Ren", "Imperial Power" and Ma Zhong"!

The former, Dongzhou School...

He followed Liu Yan to Sichuan.

Even in the subsequent period, Liu Yan made great contributions when he incorporated tens of thousands of households fleeing to Shu in the "Nanyang" and "Sanfu" areas into "Dongzhou Soldiers".

But... Liu Zhang relied on "Zhang Ren" and others from the local Yizhou school...

He even gave the military power completely to Zhang Ren.

This made the Dongzhou faction, which made great contributions, extremely dissatisfied. Using this as a breakthrough, coupled with the diplomatic lobbying ability of Sun Qian, Jian Yong and others, Zhuge Liang easily helped Liu Bei establish contact with the Dongzhou faction.

It is reasonable to win Yizhou by cooperating inside and outside.

It can be said that when the hot air balloon attacks, Liu Bei can quietly attack Chengdu... "Capture the thief and capture the king", Fa Zheng and Li Yanke of the Dongzhou faction have made a lot of efforts.

only…

As Zhuge Liang, he can see even further.

This great victory and the victory covered many problems. Now... the land of Bashu is still full of contradictions.

When Zhuge Liang thought of this, his face became much colder.

Because he knew that in the Bashu land today... in addition to the opposing "Dongzhou Sect" and "Yizhou Sect", there are also the veterans led by "Guan Yu and Zhang Fei", as well as "Zhuge Liang" and "Wei Yan" ", "Jiang Wan", "Fei Yi", "Ma Liang", and "Ma Su".

If we divide it carefully, we can also divide the "Xuzhou School" into the veteran school.

Mi Zhu, Sun Gan, Mi Fang, these are the core representatives of the Xuzhou School!

Before, when Liu Zhang was in charge of Yizhou, the two factions... were still fighting openly and secretly, chatting endlessly. Now... under the blessing of the five factions, the conflicts and conflicts in Yizhou are probably more and more intense.

What Zhuge Liang faced was a complex and big problem.

call…

Thinking of this, Zhuge Liang couldn't help but sigh.

At this moment, Liu Bei's words came out again, "Kong Ming, today... I set up a plaque in the palace with 'Han and thieves are not in harmony, Wang Ye is not indifferent'. This is because I never believe in destiny, and I always think... Cao Cao is holding him The emperor regarded it as unjust, and Lu Yu helped Cao Cao to help the evil, and I always thought that the troubled times would end in my hands. Now, we imitate Qin during the Warring States Period and Gaozu, and get this country of Heavenly Prefecture. Kong Ming, tell me, Liu Bei, Can the vision of "restoring the Han Dynasty" be realized!"

this…

Zhuge Liang was silent, he did not answer immediately, he pondered for a long time.

"The lord visited me three times in the thatched cottage. From then on, I wanted to help me with my help to restore the Han Dynasty. But to this day, this ideal distance has become farther and farther away from us. I wish you bluntly, the Han Dynasty in the Central Plains is no longer possible. If you stand, the lord, the lord, the lord, must know this in his mind!"

Liu Bei was shocked.

"You mean, let me..."

Zhuge Liang nodded heavily. "The lord has been a personal Han family for his whole life, bound by his identity and by the times. However,... the world today is impossible to regain the emperor from Cao Cao and Lu Yu, but the people of Yizhou We need a new hope. In the world, the people who are loyal to the Han Dynasty also need a hope!”

Liu Bei's figure was a little trembling. He thought of the panic evacuation of the Xiliang Army...

They failed to seize this opportunity, and went west to Xudu...

Then...welcoming the emperor away will only become a theoretical possibility!

As Zhuge Liang said... the people of Yizhou need a new hope!

Rumor – Yizhou is about to have a son of emperor!

Rumor - Wu Yi's sister wants to be the queen.

"Lord..." Zhuge Liang continued: "I would like to marry the sister of Wu Yi, the governor of Yongzhou!"

Speaking of this, Zhuge Liang emphasized his tone, "It has become a fact that Mrs. Gan turns into a butterfly and fly away, and the legend of Wu Yi's sister... should also be in line with the lord, which will be of great benefit to the lord's future!"

this…

Liu Bei's eyes dodged, but the flames ignited in his heart were indispensable during dodging.

But soon, his eyes drooped.

"The current situation...cannot tolerate me..."

"Of course not now." Zhuge Liang said: "The most urgent task is to unite all the clans of Yizhou to build a solid protection!"

"While Lu Yu is busy mediating with Xiliang, while Lu Yu is still having to deal with things in Jiangdong, our army must seize Hanzhong, based on the east and west rivers, advance can attack, retreat can defend... Perhaps, ten years, maybe twenty years, maybe twenty years In 2019, perhaps thirty years, the world will change. At that time... the lord can also follow the example of Emperor Gaozu, openly build a plank road and secretly cross Chencang, giving Wei a fatal blow!"

A blueprint...

An idea!

Zhuge Liang did his best to deploy...

On the other hand, Liu Bei's eyes, which were originally infinitely confused, suddenly became much more determined. He seemed to know... what to do.

certainly…

He may not have to last for thirty years, but he still has a son, so continue to endure...

At least…

The land of Bashu is easy to defend but difficult to attack, and is as solid as a rock!

If you keep going through generations, there will always be hope and light!

"Kong Ming..."

"Master."

"Liu Bei thanked the military advisor!"

Just like, Liu Bei accepted Zhuge Liang's proposal and used it as a strategic plan for a long time in the future!

At least, there was a light that was not eye-catching and not eye-catching in Liu Bei's heart.

There...

The dark night was like a rock. Zhao Yun and Zhao Zilong, who made great contributions to capturing the thief and the king, couldn't sleep.

He knew that tomorrow... Liu Bei would definitely reward him with great incentives.

He also knew that no matter how much he awarded his title, his official title would not be higher than Guan Yu, Zhang Fei... he would not have more than five thousand soldiers!

In this regard, Zhao Yun is lonely.

As we all know, the factions within Wei are scattered, but in fact, the factions of Shu are more complicated...

The Five Tiger Generals in History... can belong to four factions.
To be continued...
