The last three kingdoms

Chapter 193 Embarrassment

Chapter 193 Embarrassment
The news of Yong'an's fall was like a bolt from the blue, shocking almost everyone in the court of Shu Han. Jiao Linen had originally hoped for reinforcements from Soochow to defend against the invasion of the Wei people, but in the blink of an eye, it turned out. It turned into luring wolves into the house, the fire in the front yard was still burning, and the fire in the back yard was burning again. The situation in the whole Yizhou took a turn for the worse, and the splendens were in danger.

Those people who were still immersed in joy were suddenly stunned. How did this world become like this? Where is the justice?Where is the morality?Their three views are completely ruined.The so-called covenant is just a piece of waste paper, the so-called allies are just villains who have fallen into trouble, and the so-called benevolence and morality become worthless in the face of interests.

What could be more frustrating than the betrayal of an ally?This is not the first time Soochow has betrayed. It is just that the time has passed so long that people have habitually forgotten it. Although the relationship between Wu and Shu over the years cannot be said to be very good, at least it is not bad. But this time Soochow's complete betrayal made the people of Shu really angry. New and old hatreds welled up in their hearts. The whole Chengdu, like a frying pan, was full of condemnation and questioning.

Liu Chan obviously couldn't sit still anymore. Hearing the news from Liu Yin, Liu Chan's whole head exploded. No matter how ignorant of political affairs Liu Chan was, he knew what Yong'an meant to the Shu Han. Yong'an's defensive status was no less than that of Jiange. Yong'an fell, and the entire east of Yizhou opened wide. Under the current situation where the Wei army is aggressively invading, Soochow's move is tantamount to stabbing Liu Chan in the back. Liu Chan's heart is so cold.

"Yan Yu, didn't you guarantee to me that the Wu people would definitely not betray? Now... how do you explain it now?" Liu Chan angrily called Yan Yu by his first name.

Yan Yu knelt down at the bottom of the steps, and said sincerely and fearfully: "I deserve death for my crimes. I never thought that the people of Wu would break their trust and do such a thing that both humans and gods outraged. I beg your Majesty to punish you."

Liu Chan snorted heavily, and said: "I just listened to your words, which caused Yong'an to fall, and Luo Aiqing even lost her life in vain. Someone, come here, put Yan Yu into the dungeon, and wait to be punished!"

Yan Yu was shocked, he never expected that Liu Chan's punishment would be so severe, he was stunned.

Huang Hao and Yan Yu have always been friends. Seeing that Liu Chan wanted to punish Yan Yu's crimes, he hurriedly pleaded in Liu Chan's ear: "Your Majesty, Jiang Yu also made an unintentional mistake. His intention was good, but no one thought of it. The Wu people are so cunning. What's more, now that the enemy is in front of us and it is time to employ people, why doesn't your majesty let Yan Yu take the blame and make meritorious deeds and expel the Wu people?"

Liu Chan has always been obedient to Huang Hao's words. Hearing what he said, his expression softened a little, and he said, "If Huang Qing hadn't asked, I would definitely have punished you with death! However, capital crimes can be forgiven, but living crimes cannot be forgiven. The title of the general will be revoked and you will be fined one salary. In [-], I ordered you to perform crimes and make meritorious service in front of the army."

Yan Yu glanced at Huang Hao gratefully, bowed again and said, "Thank you, Your Majesty, for not killing me."

Liu Yin couldn't help slandering secretly from below. Liu Chan's punishment was really raised high and lowered gently. Yan Yu's Right General was originally a title, just like Zhenjun General and Zhengxi General. A senior person served as a general in name, but in fact the position and command did not change much. Should he lead an army or lead an army, should lead a battalion or lead a battalion? General You, in fact, has nothing to lose. As for the one-year salary, that's nonsense. If you're in this position, do you still care about the two thousand shi a year salary?
Liu Yin never had a good impression of Yan Yu. The generals in Shu have a lot of integrity, such as generals like Fu Qian and Luo Xian who dare to die generously, and veterans like Zong Yu Zhang Yi who are not afraid of the powerful.But Yan Yu is obviously a different kind. This person tends to make friends with Huang Hao, and he gets very close to Liu Xun, the new king, flattering his superiors and bullying his inferiors. Yan Yu was punished, and most of the people still had a happy attitude.

Just as Liu Yin was muttering to himself, Liu Chan said again: "Among the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty, no one can see through the sinister intentions of the Wu people. Can the Wu people be so kind? Wasn't the late emperor just because of the Dongwu incident? The end? On the court, only Wen Xuan has a unique eye, and I regret not listening to your words."

Zhuge Zhan, Dong Jue and others were very embarrassed by Liu Chan's words. During the court meeting, Yan Yu proposed to move troops to Soochow. Zhuge Zhan, Dong Jue and others also strongly agreed with them, and had a quarrel with Liu Yin. But only a few days later, the matter was unfortunately given by Liu Yin. Liu Chan pointedly pointed out the incompetence of the officials very bluntly, which made Zhuge Zhan, Dong Jue and others feel ashamed and ashamed.

They are all important ministers of the imperial court. It is their duty to share the worries of the emperor and solve the problems of the country. However, they lack consideration in the issue of asking for help from Soochow.

Liu Yin held the wat and bowed: "Your Majesty, it is meaningless to argue about this matter now. The most urgent thing is to discuss countermeasures and how to defend against the enemy." Above the hall, Zhuge Zhan and the others lost all face, and if they pursued him, he would lose his dignity.What's more, the debate on whether to ask Soochow for help is meaningless. What the Shu Han court has to do now is to unite as one and fight against the national disaster. .

Liu Chan showed a look of approval, Liu Yin was not proud of his credit, and he put the overall situation first, which made Liu Chan quite gratified.

Obviously, today's topic is not just about accountability. The Wu people attacked Yong'an, causing the gate of Yizhou to fall, facing enemies on both sides. The Shu Han regime suffered the biggest crisis since the founding of the People's Republic of China. The important agenda of today's court meeting must be how to deal with the current crisis.Liu Chan waved back Yan Yu, and said to the officials: "Wei people invaded Hanzhong, and Wu people took advantage of the fire to rob and rebel in Yong'an. What's the best way for you, dear friends, to defeat the enemy?"

All the ministers looked at each other in dismay, the troops in the middle of Shu were limited, Jiang Wei led an army of 1 to guard the Jiange, Zongyu only guarded Langzhong with only 6 horses, except for the current 6 or [-] in Chengdu, there were only a few sporadic defenders in various places. The total strength of the Shu Han is only about [-] to [-] at most, and the number of mobile troops that can be mobilized now is even more limited.

Seeing that none of the officials answered, Liu Chan couldn't help feeling sad, and wept: "The country is in danger, so no one is willing to share my worries?" He imitated the ability to shed tears, and his expression was disturbed and sorrowful.

At this time, Zhuge Zhan came out of the squad and said: "Your Majesty, I am willing to lead the soldiers of Chengdu to fight the Wu thief to the death."
