Chapter 199
Jian'an 11th year, AD 206, winter.

Wu Wang Sun Quan rebelled against Zhang Lan, made peace with Zhou Yu, and joined forces to attack Gonghe.

At that time, Cao Cao formed an alliance with Zhou Yu. Since then, the three forces have become allies with each other.

At this time, Zhang Lan was concentrating on teaching steam technology, and had no intention of asking about politics.

Guo Jia and Xu Shu arranged for an army to fight.

But the enemy was outnumbered, and the Republican army was finally defeated by two fists and four hands, and was captured by Cao Cao in Nanyang, Runan and other places.

Yangzhou, Guangling and other places were taken by Sun Quan and Zhou Yu.

Under the economic situation, Guo Jia could only find Zhang Lan and persuade him to stop the development temporarily to solve the immediate predicament.

"Your Majesty, the coalition forces of Cao, Zhou, and Sun have seized many of my territories. I hope that your Majesty will put down the steam technology and solve the predicament first."

Zhang Lan waved her hand, signaled her students to study on their own, and then said to Guo Jia, "Steam technology has made a breakthrough, start research and development, if it succeeds, it will be a great cause, and now the momentary struggle is useless, but it is true. Let the thief be so arrogant, let me think about it"

After speaking, Zhang Lan became thoughtful.

After a while, Zhang Lan said, "Is it feasible to attack Liangzhou together with Liu Bei?"

Guo Jia was stunned, "The pre-Qin ruled the world. The first emperor Yingzheng followed Fan Ju's suggestion to implement the method of long-distance and short-term attack. Now Liu Bei's ambition does not lie in this, and he will not feel at ease to be ordered to help me attack Cao. It is absolutely impossible at this time."

Zhang Lan stared at Guo Jia, and said indifferently, "What if Wei Jun is used for profit?"

"This..." Guo Jia's eyes widened.

"Your Majesty, exchanging Wu Commandery and Kuaiji for Jiujiang was really a helpless method. At this time, surrendering Wei Commandery and seeking peace with the ceded land is definitely not feasible!"

Guo Jia is in a hurry, what is the difference between this and traitorous pursuit of glory?

"Then tell me how to resist Cao, Zhou, Sun, the three-party coalition forces"

Zhang Lan is still staring at Guo Jia.

"The prosperity of our country requires sufficient soldiers and food. With the advantages of the city and the assistance of sharp weapons, it will definitely not be able to break it."

"What if we add Liu Bei?"

Guo Jia finally fell silent. Indeed, it was already difficult to deal with the three-party coalition forces. If Liu Bei was added, it would really be impossible to resist.

"Not to mention these things, the armies have been facing each other for a long time, resulting in countless casualties, and suffering the people of the world. I can't bear it. Offense is the best defense. If you unite with Liu Bei and enter Liangzhou, Cao Cao will be burdened by it and have no intention of attacking. Our army, when the time comes, the remnants of Soochow's defeated generals, what fear do we have? If we defend them desperately, the allied forces will be even more powerful. As time goes on, our army's morale will be disturbed, and the republic will be in jeopardy."

Although "Your Majesty is wise," Guo Jia was still unhappy, but he couldn't find a suitable reason to refute, so he could only reply in this way.

Seeing this, Zhang Lan continued to say, "In the current state, even if our army wins and defeats the enemy, the enemy will not be reconciled. They will turn around and fight back after cultivating their voices. After all, they will not feel at ease. If Liu Bei raises troops to attack Cao Cao's rear If Cao Cao is afraid that there will be changes in the rear, he will not dare to make good moves. Zhou Yu and Sun Quan will see Cao Cao waving the flag and shouting but do not use his full strength, and the coalition forces will be chaotic. Aim at Sun Quan, if Sun and Zhou turn against each other, then Cao Cao will not dare to move, so he will be safe. The reason why Cao Cao, Zhou Yu, and Sun Quan will unite is because we are too strong. If you break it with strength, it will be like an ant breaking a river embankment, and it will be out of control.”

"Hey" Guo Jia sighed, and finally forced himself to agree with Zhang Lan's point of view.

"Okay, Feng Xiao, let's do what I want, send an envoy to Jinyang to find Liu Bei, and say that I am willing to entrust Wei Jun, as long as he is willing to send troops to crusade against Liangzhou."

"Ministry of obedience"

Guo Jia took the order to leave and called all the ministers to discuss, all the ministers were shocked and objected one after another.

After Guo Jia told Zhang Lanzhi's remarks, everyone settled down, but they still had doubts in their hearts. After deliberation, they led Li Ru, Zhuge Liang, and Cheng Yu as representatives to meet Zhang Lan and ask the truth.

After the three of them saw Zhang Lan, Zhang Lan had already guessed their purpose, and before they could open their mouths, he said, "The words of Fengxiao are all my intentions, so don't ask any more. I think Fengxiao has already expressed my intentions." I told you"

The three of you looked at each other, but in the end it was Li Ru who stood up and said, "Your Majesty, it is really unwise to cede land. If so, the people will be uneasy, and how can the great cause prosper?"

Zhang Lan sighed, and looked at the sky leisurely, "I don't know, it's better to cede the land than to be breached by others, so let's do it like this."

"This"

Li Ru wanted to say something, but Zhuge Liang gave him a slap, and the three of them backed out.

The three passed the news to everyone, and everyone was filled with grief and indignation.

Then everyone started discussing again.

Its purpose is to send who is the most suitable envoy.

Finally, it was decided to send Zhuge Liang as an envoy to Dahan.

This is because Xu Shu and Pang Tong are not in Luoyang, but are fighting on the front line, and Guo Jia is in charge of the military.

As the prime minister, Li Ru is in charge of the overall situation and cannot get away.

In the end, only Cheng Yu and Zhuge Liang were left.

Since Zhang Lan started to teach and solve doubts, he threw the power of 007 to Cheng Yu, and Zhuge Liang was in charge of the internal affairs.

But now they are all on the right track, and Li Ru is on top, so Zhuge Liang is the most suitable, and with Zhuge Liang's eloquence, it is more than enough to persuade Liu Bei.

After the meeting, Zhuge Liang used three days to hand over the work, set off three days later, ordered Xu Chu to protect him, and went to Jinyang to find Liu Bei for negotiation.

Zhuge Liang came to Shangdang and saw Guan Yu sign up for his intention.

Guan Yu sent someone to rush to tell Liu Bei the news.

After Liu Bei heard the news, he asked Sima Yi to discuss.

"Both Zhang Lan and Cao Cao are heroes. Now Zhang Lan is weak, while Cao Cao's morale is strong. If they attack Zhang Lan and gain their land, it will be difficult to destroy them. It is better to get Wei County, and then take Liangzhou. With the Yellow River, The mountains are the momentum, develop yourself, and when the soldiers are strong and the horses are strong, send your troops south, then you can achieve hegemony."

Liu Bei accepted his words and ordered Guan Yu to send Zhuge Liang to Jinyang.

Zhuge Liang came to Jinyang to meet Liu Bei, and Sima Yi followed him.

When the two met, a verbal battle was inevitable.

In the end, Zhuge Liang narrowly won, and finally used Weijun, Liyang and other places as conditions in exchange for Liu Bei's sending troops.

After the negotiation, Zhuge Liang returned to Luoyang, while Liu Bei assembled his troops, appointed Xiang Feng as the general, and marched into Liangzhou.

When Zhuge Liang arrived in Luoyang and told everyone the news, they asked Li Ru to act as a representative to tell Zhang Lan.

Zhang Lan ordered Chen Dao to lead the troops to Hanoi, and ordered Yu Jin to lead other soldiers to Xuchang to support the front line.

After the arrangement of these things is over, it has arrived in 207 years.

Liu Bei waited until Yu Jin and Chen Dao withdrew and then ordered people to go to Weijun and Liyang.

Then the army attacked and went straight to Liangzhou.
