Chapter 394 He is already dead

"Prime Minister, we are so close to the street pavilion now, why do you look worried on your face?" Jiang Wei asked puzzled.

Although he had only been in contact with the prince for a short period of time, he greatly admired the prince's military intelligence and overall vision.

Jiang Wei believed that he had been diligent and eager to learn since childhood, but he didn't know how the prince, who was still aspiring to learn, achieved such achievements...

I can only sigh that my extraordinary talent and Wolong's generous teachings can create such a miracle.

Such a prince leads elite troops to garrison at the street pavilion, and there are still generals Zhang San and Zilong in Guanzhong to restrain him. Even if Cao Wei really comes to rescue Longyou, what is there to worry about?

"Huh?" Zhuge Liang was slightly shocked when he heard this, but he didn't expect that his worries were written on his face.

It was about the prince, but he lost his previous calmness and couldn't help shaking his fan and laughing at himself.

"Bo Yue doesn't know that the prince has been well-read since he was young, and he has been practicing martial arts no matter the rain or shine since he was four years old." Zhuge Liang said with a nostalgic look on his face, obviously thinking of those days.

At that time, His Majesty had no foundation, but although the prince's education was entrusted to others, he never ignored it.

Although the prince had not yet shown his astonishing talent when he was young, he was extremely hardworking, as if he could feel the pressure of the princes competing for hegemony at a young age.

If he hadn't always spoken lies and acted strangely, His Majesty wouldn't have been unhappy with him.

After being in a daze for a moment, Zhuge Liang recovered his thoughts and continued: "The prince has just passed the age of three and has already led the army alone, and the soldiers under his command are all recruited from refugees by himself, without any help from your majesty.

"After the army was formed, it traveled across Shu, killing bandits and bandits, big and small, and absorbing and training the young and strong among them to expand the army. Later, these rabble-rousers were frightened by the news... In less than four years, the bandits were wiped out and peace was achieved. Bashu.”

Jiang Wei's eyes widened, as if he was listening to a legend.

A beard? At such a young age, he was whipped with a willow stick because he secretly took out bird eggs while practicing martial arts... It's simply unbelievable.

He thought he had a certain understanding of the prince, but now after hearing what Zhuge Liang said, the image of prince Liu Chan in his heart became even more mysterious and extraordinary.

From this point of view, those bizarre legends that have been widely circulated recently may not all be jokes.

Zhuge Liang had a smile on his face, but he could only express "gratification" and "sense of accomplishment" on his face: "You must also know what happened next. After Jingzhou became a blockbuster, the prince fought several battles in the three counties and Nanzhong. Even though there was a small friction, it was not a defeat.

"Even if he is as famous as a famous general in the world, he is not inferior. What's more, the prince knows astronomy and geography. He even dabbles in farming, mulberry and animal husbandry, merchants and people, and the craftsmanship of hundreds of craftsmen. How can he be compared to an ordinary martial artist."

The more Jiang Wei listened, the more he admired them, and the more he felt that the claims about the prince's destiny were credible, but at the same time, he became more and more confused.

"In that case, why is the Prime Minister still so frowning? With the prince's ability, isn't it easy to guard the street pavilion?"

The corners of Zhuge Liang's originally raised mouth gradually dropped, and his brows furrowed: "This is the reason why I am worried."

Jiang Wei was even more confused now: "Prime Minister, please make it clear."

"If you are full, you will be short. This is the natural principle. Although the prince is accustomed to be cautious and restrained far beyond his age, he is still a young man after all. He has created countless miracles along the way, and this time the Northern Expedition to Cao Wei was extremely smooth.

"After successive great victories, I'm afraid it is inevitable that the blood will be hard to suppress and the plans will be bigger. However, after all, Cao Wei is no better than his usual opponents. Zhang He in Guanzhong has led troops for many years and is knowledgeable in both civil and military affairs. He is not easy to compete with... Alas, Liang is really afraid. The prince acted impulsively."

Liu Chan often chatted with him about world affairs, and they also talked a lot about the Northern Expedition after the war in Han Dynasty.

Zhuge Liang was very aware of Liu Chan's determination and emphasis on the Northern Expedition, which also made him very pleased that the Han Dynasty had a successor.

But the more so, the smoother the Longyou counties descended along the way, the easier it is for people to be impulsive.

And for some reason, when he thought about Jieting, he felt a little frightened, as if something bad was going to happen.

Zhuge Liang did not rely on astrological divination to predict the future. He usually stayed away from rumors of ghosts and gods, but this matter was so important that this abnormal uneasiness still made it difficult for him to remain calm as before.

"The general feels that maybe the prime minister is overthinking this time." Unlike Zhuge Liang, Jiang Wei, who was gradually impressed by Liu Chan, was full of confidence at this moment, "Your Majesty and the prince have inherited the destiny of heaven, and the three-pronged man, how can the prince fail? A small street pavilion.”

Zhuge Liang was noncommittal and sighed softly after a while: "I also hope it will be as you said."

While the two were talking, a horse came from ahead to report.

"Report——! Prime Minister, I still have the street pavilion in my hand, and the prince is well!" The detective only had a brief conversation with the city gate defenders, and then hurriedly reported back the news. Therefore, in the battle outside the street pavilion, he still Not yet informed.

Zhuge Liang was so happy that he almost stood up from the elephant's back, but luckily he was stopped by the soldiers riding the elephant in front.

"Okay! Okay! Hahaha, now that my army is here, the prince has nothing to worry about! Huh? Hahahaha..."

Zhuge Liang smiled extremely happily, but did not mention that the army arrived in time. Even if the Guanzhong reinforcements came out in full force, they would not be able to save Longyou.

Duanlong has actually been completed!

Such a big thing still seems to be less important than Liu Chan's safety in his heart.

……

After Liu Chan was briefly sad, he returned to his previous state.

It's not that it's just hypocrisy on weekdays. In this era, it's really a luxury to be sad all the time.

No matter emperors, generals or ordinary people, they have experienced too much life and death.

There is no point in wallowing in pain every day. Only by continuing to go on can it be possible to change this situation.

Although the Red Star Army was very depleted, with nearly half of them defeated in battle, they still managed to wipe out Zhang He's elite cavalry in one fell swoop, and killed Cao Wei's left general Zhang He!

This makes it possible for him to enter Guanzhong in the next step.

Cao Wei, who had lost three thousand elite cavalry and whose main force was still on the eastern front, would find it difficult to hold the Han army in Guanzhong for a long time.

On the contrary, if the Han army advances at this time, it can attack Chang'an, and if it retreats, it can defend Longyou.

The initial plan was to teach Wei Yan a small lesson, and by the way, to confuse the soldiers and horses of the Guanzhong garrison, it might also play an unexpected role...

In addition, Wei Yan was not the only one who had been deployed by Liu Chan in advance.

There is a lot to do in Guanzhong!

Everything is ready, just waiting for Uncle Zhuge and Lao Liu to come and meet...

"Prince! The Prime Minister has led the army and will arrive in more than ten miles!"

"Oh?" Liu Chan stood up and said with a smile, "Okay! You're here at the right time, follow me out of the city to meet you!"

Liu Chan left Li Er and other Red Star generals to guard the city, while he took the leader Lu Shuihu, the bandit leader and others who came to surrender out of the city to welcome them.

Soon they saw Zhuge Liang, who was leading an army and riding an elephant.

This thing also shocked the bandit leaders Zheng Gan, Wang Zhao and others. They had never seen such an animal in their lives. They only thought that the Han army had auspicious help, and they were secretly glad that they did not go against the will...

"Prime Minister!" There was still some distance before Liu Chan took the initiative to stop his horse and get off the saddle, holding his hands still holding the disciple's ceremony.

It is not an exaggeration to say that he received Zhuge Liang's generous support and his affection was comparable to that of a master and a disciple.

However, Zhuge Liang still hurriedly got off his back, stepped forward, and bowed deeply: "I, Zhuge Liang, have met the prince."

The more crowded the occasion, the more respectful he was to Liu Chan, not wanting to damage Liu Chan's majesty at all.

After the two exchanged greetings, they chatted and laughed. Zhuge Liang smiled happily and said: "The prince is lucky to be safe. Now the reinforcements from Guanzhong are a step later than the minister, and the end of Long is a foregone conclusion. Presumably, even if Zhang He comes in person, he still has to retreat in the face of difficulties." La. Haha..."

Liu Chan felt that his previous actions were a bit hasty, and he might have to be nagged by Uncle Zhuge. At this time, he scratched his cheek in embarrassment: "Uh... Zhang He was here earlier."

"……Um?"

"He is dead."

"……what?"
