Three Kingdoms: Peak Summons

Chapter 2414 Liu Yumou married Lu Pheasant, and Chen Ping was forced to surrender to Qin

 Chapter 2410: Liu Yumou married Lu Pheasant, and Chen Ping was forced to surrender to Qin

 Yizhou, Chengdu.

 A war without gunpowder has lasted for a year and a half, and now it is finally coming to an end.

 The political struggle between the Chengdu royal family, headed by Liu Yu and Su Qin, and the Shu royal family, headed by Chen Ping and Xingtian, has reached a level that is well known to everyone.

Coupled with the instigation of Daqin Heibingtai, this has further aggravated the internal conflicts in Shu, making the entire Shu kingdom like a powder keg that civil war may break out at any time.

But what surprised everyone was that both Chen Ping and Liu Yu showed extreme restraint in the civil war. Even if the two sides had fought to the point of death, they still suppressed the people below and did not allow a real outbreak. war.

 The reason why both sides are so restrained is that both sides know that if the Shu war breaks out together, they will completely lose control and will only end up taking advantage of Da Qin.

 Second, the two allies of Chu and Sui were mediating to prevent the two major factions from clashing with each other, and to prevent the two factions from getting out of hand.

As for the Tang State, it was kicked out of the Southern Han Alliance after becoming a vassal state of Qin. It was impossible to be readmitted by the Southern Han Alliance before it completely betrayed Da Qin.

Under this balance of self-restraint and external mediation, the internal conflicts in Shu have been alleviated to a certain extent. However, this kind of peace resulting from mutual compromise is obviously fragile and may collapse at any time.

Liu Yu and Chen Ping also knew this, but before the political battle was completely determined, they had no choice but to maintain this extremely strange balance.

Liu Yu originally thought that after Liu Ji died, he could easily accept the Shu clan and take over the military and political power of the entire Shu country, but he still underestimated the two people.

 The first one is Liu Ji who is already dead.

Even if Liu Ji is dead, his influence on Shu is everywhere. Chen Ping, Xing Tian, ​​Cao Shen and other generals will still unite together to maintain the banner of Shu, and will not accept Liu Yu's win over at all.

 The second one is Liu Ji’s widow Lu Fei.

 Liu Ji is dead, Chen Ping is good at military strategy, but weak at politics.

 Liu Yu's political attributes grew rapidly, and with the assistance of Su Qin, Chen Ping was obviously no longer his opponent. This was the reason why the Shu Clan was retreating in the early stages.

Seeing that the power of the Shu clan in the court was getting less and less, Princess Lu Fei of Shu stood up and showed extremely high political skills.

Internally, she united with the civil and military ministers of the Shu clan, held on to military and political power, and did not give Liu Yu any chance to seize power.

Externally, he tried to win over the Chu and Sui countries, so that they could put pressure on Liu Yu and not forcefully send troops to annex the Shu clan.

In addition, Lu Pheasant also moved his son to the military camp to prevent Liu Yu from using dirty tricks on their mother and son.

Lu Zhi made it clear that once you, Liu Yu, dare to seize power by force and bully us orphans and widowed mothers, a war will break out in the worst case to see who will gain the advantage in the end.

Even though Liu Yu had all kinds of conspiracies, he was also helpless by Lu Pheasant's tortoise-shell methods and couldn't say anything.

It is impossible for him to really go to war with the Shu clan. If that woman Lu Pheasant is desperate, then what is the point of getting a broken Shu kingdom?

 However, Liu Yu could not accept Lu Pheasant's proposal that the two kings should control the Kingdom of Shu together.

Liu Yu knew very well that if you kill a snake, you will be injured by it. He pretended to be his grandson and tolerated it under Liu Ji's nose for so many years. He finally found the opportunity to kill Liu Ji. How could he give the Shu clan a chance to tolerate it under his nose? Woolen cloth?

Who knows if I will make mistakes in the future, giving the Shu clan an opportunity to seize power, and then turn myself into the next Liu Ji?

 Liu Yu didn't want to end up like Liu Ji, so he would never accept the rule of two kings. However, Lu Pheasant was a woman more difficult to deal with than Chen Ping, and he really didn't have much to do in a short period of time.

Just when Liu Yu was at his wits end, Su Qin came up with a beauty trick.

Su Qin proposed to let Liu Yu seduce Lu Pheasant and adopt Liu Ying as his adopted son, which would appease the Shu clan to the greatest extent.

Lü Zhi is only in his thirties, and he became a widow at the age of tiger and wolf. He will not be able to survive in the long run.

As for Liu Yu, he has a handsome appearance and a strong and tall figure. He is the dream lover of countless girls in Shu Kingdom. Countless women throw themselves into his arms at a wave of his hand. It is not easy to seduce a widow like Lu Pheasant.

After listening to what Su Qin said, Liu Yu couldn't believe that it was Su Qin who said this.

The military counselor actually wants him to use a beauty trick?

After some thought, Liu Yu still compromised. After all, there was no other good way now. So on the one hand, he eased the relationship between the Shu clan and at the same time sent someone to invite Lu Pheasant to the banquet.

Lu Pheasant thought that Liu Yu wanted to make peace, and naturally he would not miss this opportunity. After several contacts, he gradually let down his guard. As a result, after a dinner party, Liu Yu found the opportunity, and the two of them agreed half-heartedly. Good thing.

Lu Pheasant is not a woman who can endure loneliness. After the first time, there was a second and third time soon.

Although Lu Pheasant enjoyed the fun with Liu Yu, he did not sink into it and left Liu Yu alone.

She was just playing with Liu Yu. Anyway, Liu Yu was tall, handsome and durable, ten times better than her dead husband, and she didn't suffer as a widow.

　What neither Liu Yu nor Lu Pheasant expected was that Lu Pheasant was pregnant, so Liu Yu took advantage of the situation and proposed to marry her.

Lu Pheasant's thoughts became vivid when she heard this. She thought Liu Yu was just playing with her, but she didn't expect Liu Yu to come for real.

Lu Pheasant did not reject Liu Yu's proposal, but he proposed that she should be Liu Yu's wife, and her son Liu Ying must always be the king of Shu.

Lu Pheasant also did not propose that Liu Ying should be the crown prince of Chengdu. This unrealistic statement would have caused Liu Yu's dissatisfaction if it had been proposed.

 As long as she has the title of head wife, the child born to her and Liu Yu will naturally be the heir apparent.

Liu Yu agreed without thinking. After all, his wife had died of illness a few years ago and he had never been married again. Lu Fei gave her the title if he wanted it.

As for Liu Ying, after he marries Lu Fei, Liu Ying will be his stepson. With the reputation between father and son, he can openly and openly coerce Liu Ying to establish the Shu clan.

The news that King Liu Yu of Chengdu was going to marry Princess Lu of Shu and become his head wife spread throughout Chengdu as soon as it appeared, leaving countless people stunned.

Two people who were fighting each other before are now getting married?

Although everyone knows that Liu Yu did this just for the rights of the Shu clan, they still admire Liu Yu's actions. After all, this Princess of Shu is not an ordinary person.

Dare to let such a woman become his bed partner, it can be seen that the King of Chengdu has put life and death aside for the sake of the stability of Shu.

 Chen Ping, Xing Tian, ​​Cao Shen and other Shu officials were all stunned after learning the news. They had no idea that Lu Pheasant would agree to marry Liu Yu.

Although the Shu Kingdom claimed that Liu Ji died from Zhao Yun's gunshot wound, Chen Ping and his close friends all knew that Liu Ji was mad to death by Liu Yu. It doesn't matter that Liu Yu was so angry that he died of Liu Ji, but he still wanted to usurp the entire Shu Kingdom, sleep with Liu Ji's wife, and make Liu Ji's son recognize a thief as his father. This was simply too much.

Chen Pingping, Liu Ji's confidants who were loyal to Liu Ji, were all very angry about this, but they obviously could not be Lu Pheasant's master. In addition, Lu Pheasant agreed to marry Liu Yu, which also caused divisions within the Shu clan, causing many people to I don’t want to continue to fight against the Chengdu faction.

Chen Ping never expected that the person who stabbed him in the back would be regarded as the mistress of hope. Now that the team's people are unstable, something big has happened, and it is no longer something he can reverse.

Lu Pheasant's approach took care of everyone in the Shu clan, but excluded Chen Ping.

 Chen Ping is the leader of the Shu faction and has always advocated confrontation with Liu Yu. He has already completely offended Liu Yu to death.

Liu Yu could accept everyone from the Shu clan, but he would not accept Chen Ping.

Chen Ping, who has an intelligence of 101, obviously also knew this, so as soon as he learned the news, he planned how to escape and take revenge on this bad couple.

Chen Ping summoned Xing Tian, ​​Cao Shen, Fan Kuai, Peng Yue, Xia Houying, Liu Yuxi and others, and said with added jealousy that Liu Yu would never let them go, and hoped that these people could leave Shu with him.

 But because of the young master Liu Ying, most people were unwilling to betray Shu. Only Cao Shen and Fan Kuai decided to leave Shu and go to Chu to join Liu Xiu.

"Military advisor, won't you go to Chu with us?" Fan Kuai asked angrily.

Chen Ping shook his head and said: "Ping still has things to deal with in Chengdu. You go ahead and I will catch up later."

“Okay, let’s meet again in Chu State.”

 After Cao Shen and Fan Kuai left, a mysterious man dressed in black appeared behind Chen Ping.

“Mr. Chen Ping, it seems you have made your choice.”

"The Han Dynasty is hopeless. The Qin Dynasty is destined to unify the world. How can a person who is not stupid not see the general trend clearly? He naturally knows what choice to make."

 Chen Ping said calmly. He could comfort himself before, but now that he has become an abandoned son and his illusions are completely shattered, he will naturally not be loyal to Liu Ji.

The man in black fell silent, then took out a token and said: "Since you, sir, are willing to surrender to Qin, with this token, you can enter Luoyang and meet His Majesty directly."

 Chen Ping looked surprised. He originally thought that the other party was just a spy, but he didn't expect that he would have the right to see Ying Hao directly. This was not as simple as an ordinary spy. Could it be...

“I heard that there are four secret spies in the Qin Dynasty: Xuanhuang, Heaven, Earth, Xuanhuang, who are all-pervasive and omniscient. Who are you?”

 The man in black was silent again for a moment, then said: "Xuan."

Chen Ping understood clearly. After taking the token, he took out a list of names and said, "These people are my confidants and should be helpful to you."

After saying that, Chen Ping mounted his horse and drove away. However, he did not go to Chu, but to Qin.

 Chen Ping turned his head and glanced at the city of Chengdu behind him, filled with resentment in his heart. He worked hard for the Kingdom of Shu but did not expect to end up like this, so he vowed to make Liu Yu and Lu Fei pay the price.

 Two days later.

“Report to my lord, Chen Ping, Fan Kuai, and Cao Shen are all missing.”

"What?"

Liu Yu was shocked when he heard this. He didn't know that the four people had defected, so he quickly ordered: "Quick, order Guan Yunchang and Zhang Yide to lead a thousand cavalry each to chase. Chen Ping must not be allowed to escape Yizhou alive. "

Liu Yu was well aware of Chen Ping's terror. If Liu Ji hadn't been dead, plus he had Su Qin as his assistant, and Lv Zhi's backstabbing, he didn't know how long it would take to get rid of Chen Ping.

 Chen Ping knows too many secrets of Shu, and Liu Yu may naturally see him defecting to other countries, even if they are allies.

 As for Shan Fu, Guan Yu and Zhang Fei, these three former Liu Bei's men have been reused by Liu Yu since they defected here.

 The three of them all have extremely outstanding abilities, and their wealth is all innocent. They also have sworn enemies with Da Qin, so why should Liu Yu not use them?

There are not many people available to Liu Yu, and his most trusted brother Liu Er is no match for Xing Tian. The active defection of Guan Yu and Zhang Fei makes him no less powerful than the Shu clan in terms of high-level generals.

The four of them, Chen Ping, have been running for two days, and it is obvious that they will not let Guan Yu and Zhang Fei catch up.

Guan Yu and Zhang Fei chased him to the national border, but did not find the cement man. In desperation, he had no choice but to return and give orders to Liu Yu.

 At the same time, Sizhou, Henan Yin, Xinzheng County.

During the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, Xinzheng County was the capital of South Korea, one of the Seven Heroes. However, after going through wars and vicissitudes of life, it can no longer live up to its former glory.

By the end of the Han Dynasty, Xinzheng had been reduced to an ordinary small county. It was not until it was ruled by Ying Hao that it regained its vitality.

There is a reason for Xinzheng to be designated as the capital of Han Dynasty. There are a large number of iron ore and copper mines around it, and they are all open-pit and extremely easy to mine.

 It was precisely because of this unique natural resource that South Korea became known as the "strong Korea" during the Warring States Period. Its sophisticated ordnance was even as good as that of Qin.

 However, after the logging in the Qin and Han dynasties, Xinzheng’s open-pit mineral resources have been developed, and the deep veins cannot be mined on a large scale due to technical reasons. This is also the main reason for Xinzheng’s decline.

Ying Hao exchanged new mining technology from the system and improved Daqin's mining technology by several levels. Even deep veins can be mined, let alone Xinzheng's middle veins.

It is precisely because of this that the Xinzheng Mine was restarted, and a large arsenal was built nearby to manufacture ordnance for the army.

 The establishment of mines and ordnance factories has also made Xinzheng popular. All armies in Sizhou want to use Xinzheng as their garrison. After all, with the ordnance factory there, the local garrison will definitely not be short of training equipment.

But what none of the generals expected was that the coveted treasure land of Xinzheng would eventually be snatched away by the Detachment of Women.

 It must be that the Phoenix Marquis is taking the wife route again. All the generals in Sizhou thought so.

But what they didn't know was that Arthur didn't mobilize the ladies this time, and she didn't know why this treasure land was given to the Women's Army. However, it was impossible for her not to eat the fat on her lips, so she immediately So the new military camp was moved to Xinzheng.
