Chapter 44

When Liu Chan saw Zhuge Liang, he was not reviewing official documents and battle reports, nor was he reading and playing the piano.

Zhuge Liang just sat on the table like that, shaking his feather fan with a half-smile.

Seeing Liu Chan stepping in, Zhuge Liang even got up immediately and bowed his hands in salute: "Mr. Liu has had a difficult journey, and he returned safely today. It is really gratifying to congratulate."

"over."

After getting along for so many years, once Liu Chan heard this tone, he knew it by seeing this style-Uncle Zhuge was angry.

Needless to ask the reason, it must be that the matter of his smuggling to Soochow "has happened".

He didn't think he could hide this from Zhuge Liang, after all... Liu Chan turned his head and looked at Lao Luo outside the house with a half-smile.

At the beginning, Lao Luo held back and didn't respond, but he couldn't hold back immediately, and looked back with a little guilt.

Sighing secretly, Liu Chan withdrew his gaze.

After all, sending these personal guards to him was also the condition for Lao Liu and Uncle Zhuge to agree to train troops and suppress bandits.

It was his job to report on his current situation and safety, and there was no need for him to embarrass him.

Only this time it was too fast!

Judging from this posture, as soon as I arrived in Nan'an County, the news should be sent back to Chengdu.

"Uncle Zhuge, the ground in Soochow is not stable. It's not that I'm worried about the caravan, so I lead people to protect it..."

"Oh? The land in Eastern Wu is not stable, so the young master helped Shanyue wipe out his Sun family's thousand-man army?" Zhuge Liang laughed, "I wonder if Lu Meng, Sun Jiao and others have hosted a banquet for the young master to express their gratitude? "

Liu Chan: "..."

He glanced at Lao Luo outside the door again, is it necessary to report in such detail?

"Sigh." Zhuge Liang sighed, with a helpless expression on his face, "How did you promise Liang when you were leaving?"

"...Don't cause trouble."

"Young Master, it is too reckless to risk yourself!"

Seeing that Uncle Zhuge turned on the education mode with a worried expression on his face, Liu Chan breathed a sigh of relief.

This means that he will not tell Lao Liu about it afterwards.

As long as you don't let Lao Liu know that you have taken your soldiers, you can say anything.

"Haven't you heard that 'prevent disasters first and not hurt later. Know and act cautiously, a gentleman should not stand under a dangerous wall'?"

"Zen knows." Liu Chan cupped his hands, as if he knew his mistakes and could correct them.

It's just helpless in his heart, he had no choice but to stand under the dangerous wall just to "prevent disasters first".

Many things only he knows, and many things can only be done by himself.

Why doesn't he want to lie flat and let his thighs fly with him.

But the consequences of that have long been recorded in the history books.

Seeing Liu Chan like this, Zhuge Liang couldn't bear to say anything more, and... In fact, if he really wanted to say it, when he heard the news, his pride was greater than his blame.

"Why did you take the risk this time?"

If there is anyone in the Liu Group who least believes that Liu Chan's actions are just nonsense at this time, it can only be Zhuge Kongming.

In the past two years, he has been watching the changes of the young master.

As for this question, Liu Chan also knew that he couldn't be fooled, so he simply told the truth: "If the second uncle attacks Xiangfan in the north, Chan fears that the rear will be unstable. This time, he crossed the border disguised as a trader to find out the reality of Soochow."

Zhuge Liang had such an expression as expected.

He was not surprised that the young master could see Lao Liu's next plan.

only……

"Although Sun Quan has coveted Jingzhou for a long time, his ambition is not small. If he wants to conquer the world, he must know that the only way is to unite against Cao.

"If my Jingzhou army fights against Cao's army, Sun Wu's best choice is to stand on the sidelines. If the general Guan's army fails, then our Jingzhou's strength will decline, and it will not be too late.

"If things come to pass, Cao Cao will dispatch soldiers from Henan and Yanzhou to rescue Xiangfan. At that time, Sun Wu will attack Hefei again. Isn't it a battle?"

Liu Chan also felt that there was nothing wrong with Uncle Zhuge's analysis.

In the three-party struggle for hegemony, the first bird must be beaten first.

If the second child wants to win in the end, he must find a way to suppress the third child on the premise of pulling the third child to fight the boss.

It's a pity that Uncle Zhuge didn't know that Comrade Wu's second child, whom Cao Cao admired, had already been beaten out of Hefei PTSD by Zhang Babai, and he didn't want to be the second child this time.

He wants to be the sixth son.

But Zhuge Liang changed the subject immediately, and said with a smile: "But it's very good that you can take precautions."

After that, he asked Liu Chan about what he had seen on this trip and the details of the battle with the valley.

Hearing that Liu Chan did not lose a single soldier, he took advantage of the terrain and mountains to destroy the thousand Wu troops. Zhuge Liang was very pleased.

"If Uncle Zhuge has nothing else to do, Zen will go back first."

I thought the matter had been revealed by now, but Zhuge Liang stopped him.

"There is one more thing to call the young master here this time."

Under Liu Chan's puzzled gaze, Zhuge Liang smiled and said, "My lord, do you know that Qiang is the Zhang family and can be used by me?"

After hearing what happened in Yizhou in the past month, Liu Chan understood why the county magistrate Zhang was so unbelievably enthusiastic about him.

It turned out that Qiang stood in line for the Zhang family, and took the county's surname to stand on his side.

This is good news.

It seems that after Liuhou, compared with those short-sighted generations, he still has aggressive ambitions.

Although there is still a long way to go to fully integrate the factions within Lao Liu, it is still a good start.

……

When Liu Chan returned to the barracks, he saw a person standing in front of the school field with his back to him, dancing and spitting.

"That day in the valley, I saw the enemy's flags covering the sun and murderous aura covering the sky, and a large group of troops rushed to the valley..."

Many of the onlookers swallowed and clenched their fists.

"The first general, with a strong back and waist, a red dragon horse under his crotch, and a long halberd in his hand, is full of majesty and prestige."

Some soldiers facing Liu Chan saw him walking in, and instinctively got up.

Liu Chan quickly stopped them with a hand, signaling to keep quiet.

The people in the field obviously didn't notice the small movements of the soldiers, and they were still full of enthusiasm.

"When the enemy soldiers and horses marched into the valley, the drums were beating loudly, the killing sounds were loud, and the rolling stones fell like mountains and mountains..."

Liu Chan stood behind him with great interest, and the other soldiers who found out wanted to remind him but didn't dare, and winked.

"I saw the young general riding alone, killing the general, who would either die or be injured. The general saw that he could not escape, he gritted his teeth and broke his heart! I saw him returning to his horse and it was... er ?”

Wherever Hu Lixing came, he pointed like a spear, turned around and stabbed... pointing at Liu Chan who was looking at him with a smile in front of him.

The originally excited expression on his face gradually froze.

"Go ahead, don't talk about it, the talk is quite good." Liu Chan patted him on the shoulder, "Are you interested in working part-time in the post office? The officials will definitely be interested in listening to you for a while, and maybe they will give you some rewards. "

Hu Li twisted so badly that his back hurt, and he didn't dare to move. Tears were about to come down...

"Okay, let's line up first, I have something to say." After a little joke, Liu Chan said seriously.

Everyone got up quickly, and they lined up in a few breaths, neatly.

Liu Chan nodded secretly, it seems that even when he left, those who stayed behind did not slack off.

"Everyone performed well in this mission, and everyone will be rewarded with 200 qian and 1 hu per meter."

Hu Li and the others couldn't hide their joy, but the soldiers who stayed behind were envious.

But soon, their attention was attracted by Liu Chan's next words.

"Except for Shen Zhong and others who still have missions to return, everyone else can rest for three days. After three days, there will be a big competition in the school field, and the regular army and generals at all levels will be re-selected."

There is only one month left in the countdown to the battle of Xiangfan.

The invisible big hand turning the wheel of history is about to reach out, and Liu Chan must seize the last period of time to improve his strength.

The risks are high, but so are the rewards.

People who have died once, it is rare to come to the Three Kingdoms once, even if they die heroically, it is better than being kept in captivity for a lifetime, and they will become the laughing stock of future generations.

……

At this time, another son of the Liu family had been ordered to join Meng Da, forced to surrender Shangyong prefect Shen Dan, successfully occupied Shangyong, and reached the pinnacle of his life in history.

It's just that he, who is full of ambition, has come to the biggest fork in his life at this time.
