Three Kingdoms: I help Liu Bei grow thousands of miles

Chapter 854 Ordinary people show that you are alone?
Zhang Zhao stayed up all night, walked out of the mansion after breakfast, and got into the carriage prepared by Hu Ke.

Lifting the curtains of the car, the peace on the streets of Jianye is still the same, but there are a few more teams of patrolling soldiers, as if it is no different from the past.

At this time, King Wu's hall was full of Jiangdong's important ministers. Early in the morning, armored warriors invited them to discuss matters in the name of Zhang Zhao. Everyone was forced to come here early to wait, including the old and sick Prime Minister Sun Shao who was evacuated.

Because Zhang Zhao was ordered by Sun Quan before his departure, no one knew what kind of medicine he sold in his gourd, so everyone gathered around and whispered.

Hu Ke made a thunderous attack last night, and he had completely controlled Jianye before that. He is now standing outside the hall in full armor. Seeing him, Zhang Zhao nodded slightly in response, thinking that with this person in charge, today's matter should be completed.

As soon as Zhang Zhao stepped through the threshold, he was noticed by Yan Yan, and he quickly leaned over and asked, "Mr. Zibu, you are here, why are you in such a hurry? And the palace guards were replaced by understanding guards."

"We'll find out later." Zhang Zhao walked in with a serious face.

At this time, more people have noticed him, Gu Yong cupped his hands and greeted: "Zibu is here?"

"It's good that you are all here." Zhang Zhao hurriedly nodded in return.

After a brief exchange of greetings, Prime Minister Sun Shao took the lead and asked, "Ahem, Zibu sent soldiers to invite me to come here. What is there to say?"

There was displeasure in Sun Shao's words, which meant that Sun Quan was not so arrogant, and you have gone too far today.

Zhang Zhao looked around at the crowd, first closed his eyes to sort out his thoughts, then opened his eyes and said solemnly: "The purpose of inviting you here today is to plan the fate of the princes' families, and the fate of millions of Li Shu in Jiangdong."

"Zi Bu said it so seriously? Could it be that the world has changed?" Shang Shu Ling Gu Yong asked with a frown.

Zhang Zhao nodded slightly, "It is rumored that Liu Bei, the king of Hanzhong, succeeded the emperor in Chang'an a few days ago, and continued the Han family's Guozuo. There are two emperors in three parts of the world. If Jiangdong does not actively respond, I am afraid there will be no future."

At first they thought Zhang Zhao had something high-minded, but ended up amusing them with market gossip, everyone's faces were sullen, but because Zhang Zhao was old and entrusted by Sun Quan, no one dared to stand up and criticize.

There was another old man standing in front of the hall. He was Shang Shupu She Tang Gu, who was about the same age as Zhang Zhao, and he was a highly respected Danyang Confucian. The news of proclaiming the emperor did not circulate in Jianye for a day or two, how to deal with it is the king's business, no matter how urgent it is, we have to wait for the king to return."

"Zizheng (Tang Gu), we can't wait for the king to return. Chaisang was captured by Gan Ning's troops the day before yesterday, completely cutting off the food road for the Marquis of Nanchang (Lu Fan). The next step should be to attack Jianye. Soochow is now It's at stake." Zhang Zhao directly threw out the information.

"What?" Tang Gu and the officials in the palace were shocked.

Gu Yong anxiously asked: "What did you say? Chaisang fell? How is it possible?"

"Gou'er personally wrote the letter, please read it." Zhang Zhao then handed the family letter to Tang Gu.

All the ministers in the hall immediately crowded around to read it. Tang Gu felt short of breath and sweaty, and then handed the letter to Kan Ze to read.

After a while, everyone knew what had happened.

"Since Chaisang fell, what is Zhongsi's letter?" Prime Minister Sun Shao questioned.

Zhang Zhaoping said flatly, "The reason is actually not difficult to guess. It should be that Gan Ning wanted to surrender, or deliberately made us mess up."

"Gan Ning is a mighty general under Liu Bei's command. You have to go to Ruxu immediately to ask for the governor, otherwise Jianye will be in danger." Gu Yong quickly made a suggestion.

"There are only [-] sailors left in the governor's place. Can they really fight against Gan Ning's more people? Besides, if there are no troops stationed in Ruxu, Jiang Ji will not be indifferent. Losing Ruxu Shuikou, Jianye is just as dangerous." Zhang Zhang Zhao brought out Hu Ke's analysis, and Gu Yong was speechless after listening to it.

Prime Minister Sun Shao swallowed his saliva, and then said something to comfort himself: "Didn't our army win a big victory before? Lantian's old nest, Guangzhou, has already been captured. I expect Gan Ning to just attack east and west. Jiangdong should not be in that situation."

Tang Gu sorted out his excited emotions, and then found Wu Fan in the crowd and asked: "Wen Ze, through the celestial phenomena and solar terms, you have calculated that disasters and auspiciousness have come true. Is there any abnormal celestial phenomena recently?"

"Recently, the western sky is full of stars, and there seems to be a sign of the great prosperity of the hero. I fear this world." Wu Fan dared not continue in the middle of the sentence.

"Go on, cough cough." Sun Shao took out the prime minister's aura and shouted excitedly.

Wu Fan bowed and bowed, bowed his head and replied: "I am afraid of the world, I want to unify for Liu Bei."

"This..." Sun Shao was suddenly at a loss for words again.

Zhang Zhao was full of gratitude, and said in his heart that with Wu Fan's celestial support, the old man just took advantage of God's will to say yes, you really showed up in time.

"Zibu, you asked us to discuss matters today, shouldn't you just report the military situation? Maybe you have thought of a solution?" Gu Yong frowned.

Zhang Zhaoshu looked at the earnest eyes of the ministers, nodded and said solemnly: "This old man has a plan, which can save the people in Jiangdong from being burned, and also make the houses of the princes peaceful."

"What kind of trick is it?" Gu Yong faintly felt that the old Zhang Zhao had returned.

"Ahem." Zhang Zhao cleared his throat, and said earnestly, "It turns out that the king of Hanzhong is destined to return, why don't I just submit to him? In this way, everyone is still a Han subject, and you don't have to feel ashamed of your ancestors."

"This..." Gu Yongxin said that it was so, and the others were silent, after all Zhang Zhao did give the best solution.

At this time Zhang Wen stood up and echoed: "Mr. Zibu's words are not bad. Since ancient times, there have been no two days in the sky, and there have been no two monarchs in the country. The king of Hanzhong Yan Han is orthodox. Instead of surrendering to Cao Pi who usurped the Han, it is better to let Soochow return to the Han Dynasty. I agree. "

"Uh, I also second the proposal." Yan Yan was stunned and Zhang Wen took the lead in an instant, but he followed closely to express his support to Zhang Zhao.

"If you surrender, you can protect yourself. Mr. Zibu is right."

"That's right, Cao Pi and Liu Bei both proclaimed themselves emperors, but we don't know why, so what? Surrender is too correct."

"The king of Hanzhong took it back to Guanzhong, which means that Wei Guo is strong and middle-ranked, and we will not be humiliated by surrendering Han."

"The subordinates seconded the proposal."

All of a sudden, the crowd in the hall was excited, Zhang Zhao nodded in satisfaction when he saw everyone expressing their attitudes, and said in his heart that it was almost the same as before, and everyone was tired after fighting for so many years.

"It must not be done. Your Majesty is still in his beard, and you are about to surrender to the enemy. Aren't you a generation of traitors seeking glory? I firmly oppose it."

The disharmonious voice came from Shi Zhong, Shi Yi. After Sun Quan was granted the title of King of Wu, he was rewarded for his meritorious deeds. Thinking that he has no talent for commanding troops, he voluntarily gave up his military power and became a civil servant.

Shiyi was not outstanding in Jiangdong, so Zhang Zhao didn't pay attention to it. He said coldly: "All the ministers agree, I'm afraid it's not Ziyu's turn to object. Didn't you hear what Wu Wenze said just now? Sooner or later If we want to return to Yanhan, we must listen to the destiny and know the current affairs. Didn’t the king also surrender Wei? What’s wrong with us surrendering to the king of Hanzhong?”

"This is absurd. King Wu surrendered to Wei in name. I think all the princes of Gungun are willing to surrender to Liu Bei. How are you different from rebellious officials and thieves?" Shi Yi sternly scolded.

Zhang Zhao snorted coldly: "Ordinary Zhaozhao, you are alone in the dark, and you are not good enough to plan. If you want to follow the King of Wu, you can go to Ruxu. Don't disturb our mood here."

"Has your kneecap been broken before Liu Bei called? I'll kill you, old dog." Shi Yi had no weapons on her body, so she rushed forward with her bare hands.
