Chapter 478

The fall of Linjiang had a great impact on the Shu army, because from then on, the Jiangdong army could drive straight in and further threaten Chengdu. This was a major event that shook its foundation.

At that time, Liu Bei was having a feast for guests and friends in Yizhou Mufu in Chengdu. Today is his son Liu Chan's fifth birthday. This son is smart and healthy, and he is already five feet tall.

Although he is young, under the education of etiquette and law, Liu Chan is very well-behaved and treats others like a little adult, which is commendable.

"Haha, my lord, although the young master is young, he is so smart and steady, it is really rare."

"Yes, yes, I also heard that the young master has a photographic memory, and he has memorized "The Analects of Confucius" at a young age. This is really a blessing for the Han Dynasty."

"That's needless to say? Don't even look at what kind of hero the lord is? This is the leader of the glorious Han family!"

"This son is extraordinary, and he will become a great weapon in the future. Even Liu He will surpass him in the future..." The official suddenly realized that he had said something that he shouldn't have said, so he suddenly stopped talking and didn't say any more.

Liu Bei didn't respond to such words. Of course, he pretended not to hear it, so as not to embarrass the official. On the other hand, why didn't he think so?My son is very smart, calm and strong, and I believe it will not be difficult to surpass Liu He in the future.

However, at this moment, the general Ma Zhong broke in and came to Liu Bei with a sad face.

"What's wrong?" Seeing this appearance, Liu Bei asked suspiciously.

"This..." Although Ma Zhong wanted to say it, he looked at the guests around him and did not speak.

When Liu Bei saw this scene, he immediately had a bad premonition in his heart, and hurried out of the hall, motioning for Ma Zhong to follow.

"What's going on?" Liu Bei and Ma Zhong couldn't help asking when they came to a no-man's land.

"My lord, news came from the front that Fa Xiaozhi suddenly became seriously ill three days ago and died. General Zhang drank some strong wine in depression last night because he missed Fa Xiaozhi, but Zhou Yu suddenly launched a fire attack and took the opportunity to attack the city. , General Zhang was unable to fight while drunk, so he had to abandon the city and leave..."

"What? Fa Xiaozhi is dead? Linjiang City is lost?" Hearing the news, Liu Bei's face suddenly turned pale, and soon after, he spurted out a mouthful of blood, and then said in tears: "Xiao Zhi, Xiao Zhi, at this time How can you leave me?"

"My lord, my lord..." Ma Zhong panicked when he saw Liu Bei vomit blood, he hurriedly supported Liu Bei, and at the same time shouted for someone to call for a doctor quickly.

Liu Bei hurriedly waved his hand to stop him, and then said with a wry smile: "I can't die, don't alarm everyone. Don't make any publicity about it. I'll go to the hall first, and today's banquet will be held as usual. Go quickly and invite Wu Yi to come over and let him come here." Waiting in the hall."

Liu Bei knew that the news had to be blocked at this time, otherwise, once the army's morale was in chaos, he would undoubtedly be defeated, and he would not even be able to defend Chengdu.

Reluctantly cheered up and continued to participate in the banquet. It was not until after the banquet that Liu Bei rushed to the side hall, hurriedly told Wu Yi about Fazheng's death and Linjiang's fall, and then ordered Wu Yi to lead the [-] soldiers in the city Ma Qian went to meet Zhang Fei, and solemnly warned that there must be no mistakes: "Our army has already lost one Fa Xiaozhi, but we must never lose my third brother again. No matter what price you pay, even if you take this The [-] troops are filled in, and Yide must be taken back."

Later, Liu Bei ordered his adopted son Liu Feng to lead the army to guard Jiangzhou, with Zhang Song as his military adviser, and at the same time urgently dispatched Guan Yu and Zhuge Liang back to Chengdu, because in his opinion, only these two people were capable of defeating Zhou Yu.

"Hey, when Yun Chang and Kong Ming come back, I'm afraid the counties and counties in the south will no longer be able to hold on. The situation is relatively stable. I rely on the Land of Abundance. Although I have to work hard for a while, I will definitely be able to drag the enemy's food and retreat in the end. But now that Fa Xiaozhi is dead, there is no strong military adviser on the eastern front, Linjiang has fallen, and the situation has lost its balance. If there is another change, even the entire Berkshire cannot be kept. I can't take such a risk. Losing southern border, I can still maintain it, but if I lose Berkshire, I will face the threat of Zhou Yu's child at any time, it is obvious which is more important, and now I can only avoid the serious."

Liu Bei's heart was full of helplessness, and he sighed softly: "The third brother is always drinking and making mistakes, so he can't be reused at all. Now there is a shortage of good generals in the army, and there is only one second brother available. It's a pity that I didn't listen to dissuasion last time. The army conquered Sun Quan, and as a result, the soldiers were lost and the generals were lost. Fu Xun, Sha Moke, Feng Xi, and Zhang Nan all died in battle, causing the talents in our army to wither. Helpless? God, since you can give me a chance to win the Yizhou foundation, and since you are sure that I am the man of destiny, why did you let me suffer this setback?"

Liu Bei is full of resentment and resentment against the injustice of the sky, which caused him to suffer such a big setback, and caused so many talents to leave him. If Fazheng is still alive, if Chen Deng is still alive, then he will definitely not end up where he is today .

Fortunately, under Wu Yi's support, Zhang Fei returned to Chengdu smoothly. However, at this time, Zhang Fei no longer had the arrogance he had before. Liu Bei killed him in order to rectify the military law.

However, after all, Zhang Fei is one of the few fierce generals in Liu Bei's army, and he has a brotherly relationship with Liu Bei for many years, so how can he be let go?So Liu Bei spared Zhang Fei's life, and at the same time changed Zhang Fei to be the governor of the Shu army, and let him be in charge of guarding Chengdu.

Half a month later, Guan Yu and Zhuge Liang returned to Chengdu quickly. At this time, they saw Liu Bei with gray temples. This time we met, but the temples were already gray, which shows how miserable Liu Bei is?

"Brother!" Seeing the changes in Liu Bei's face before and after, Guan Yu burst into tears, and gritted his teeth and said, "Where is the third brother? It's all because of his greed and miscalculation, which caused such a disaster. I want to teach him a lesson and let him Resolutely change this lesson!"

At this time, Zhang Fei was ashamed. He had been hiding in his home for many days and did not dare to see anyone. Now that Guan Yu came back, he had to go to the gate of the city to greet him. However, he kept his head down and hid in the crowd, not daring to look at Liu Bei. , He didn't see Liu Bei's temples frost until now, he slapped himself hard several times, and secretly made up his mind to keep this lesson in mind and never drink alcohol again in his life!
Liu Bei sighed softly: "It's none of the third brother's business, alas, everything is God's will, it seems that I was deceived by Zuo Ci's old way, and I believed myself too much. Now that I think about it, the preparation is really beyond my control. Now I don't ask for anything else, and I am content to keep the northern part of Yizhou."

"My lord, why bother to belittle yourself so much? My lord's trouble now is nothing more than Zhou Yu. Although Liang is not talented, if he is willing to go there for a while, he will surely return with regret." Seeing Liu Bei's bleak words, Zhuge Liang felt a little anxious when he saw that his ambition was gone. , hurriedly stepped forward and said loudly.
