Chapter 584 Zhuge Liang's Empty City Plan

After deploying the plan to kill Yang Yi, Zhuge Liang did not evacuate Chengdu immediately, but organized the people in the city who had not had time to evacuate and the sergeants who had fled from the front to restore order, and declared to them that Meng Huo One hundred thousand barbarians led by the general will march to Chengdu soon. As long as everyone unites to fight against the enemy, Liu He will be defeated at the gate of Chengdu.

Of course, these are just words deliberately released by Zhuge Liang to boost morale. The real purpose is to delay the progress of Liu and the army and completely guarantee Liu Chan's safety.

In his opinion, Yang Yi is now equivalent to a dead person, and there is nothing to worry about. As long as he writes a letter, Yang Yi will definitely die. With himself around, Meng Huo would never dare to have any wrong thoughts about Liu Chan.

It was precisely based on this consideration that Zhuge Liang did not set off for Jianning immediately, but planned to stay to delay Liu He.

Zhuge Liang's method is also very simple, that is, to use the art of Qimen Dunjia to use the empty city strategy to create an illusion and trick Liu He into retreating.He had always been cautious in his life, but now he was unexpected and bold. He believed that even if Liu He was the reincarnation of a god, he would never be able to tell.

In order to ensure that he could deceive Liu He, Zhuge Liang summoned all the people into the city and ordered the city gates to be opened. He also asked soldiers to dress up as ordinary people and sweep the streets in front of the city gates, while he himself went to the towers. , accompanied by two children, played the piano leisurely and contentedly, waiting for the arrival of Liu and Dajun.

Zhuge Liang had just arranged all this when he heard the sound of rumbling horseshoes in the distance, and then he saw a military horse approaching not far away. The word "yellow" was embroidered on the tail of this military horse. It should be Liu He's general Huang Zhong.

Zhuge Liang guessed right, it was indeed Huang Zhong who came. As a vanguard general, he asked for orders to go to Chengdu immediately after Liu He pacified Mianzhu, and got Liu He's permission.

"Han Sheng, you head to Chengdu immediately, and the lonely king will send troops to rush there. You must remember that you must think twice before doing anything, and you must not act recklessly."

"No! Don't worry, my lord." After receiving Liu He's permission, Huang Zhong immediately led his army to Chengdu. He originally planned to go directly to the city and attack the city, but he didn't expect that the other side would open the city gate wide open, and the people would also rush to Chengdu. Treating them as nothing, sweeping the streets at the gate of the city, while Zhuge Liang played the piano relaxedly on the tower, and said words welcoming him into the city.

"Hmph, it's clear that you have an ambush. I won't be fooled by this." Huang Zhong glanced at Zhuge Liang and said calmly.

Huang Zhong also fought under Liu Bei at that time. He was very aware of Zhuge Liang's abilities. In his opinion, apart from his mysterious lord, Zhuge Liang was the only one who had abilities. He was full of tricks like this. It is absolutely impossible for the people to attack the city like this. There must be some kind of ambush inside. If you go in, you will definitely be defeated. At that time, it doesn't matter if you lose the battle, but if the lord's morale is frustrated, then you can't do it. Worthy of sin.

Of course, it is absolutely impossible for Huang Zhong to leave, so in desperation, he had no choice but to order his soldiers to camp and prepare to live there for a long time. Since you have an ambush in the city, then I will take the opportunity of camping to lure your people out , to explore your reality.

However, Zhuge Liang was not fooled, he laughed and said: "I didn't expect that in the past few years under King Qin's tent, the old general Huang Hansheng has learned more and more strategies, but the former master treated you so kindly, but you are ungrateful and surrender to others. Now It is even leading the enemy to attack the motherland, where is your moral conscience?"

Huang Zhong blushed immediately when he heard this. Back then Liu Bei refused to exchange the Berkshire matter for him. After thinking about it later, he felt that he understood. After all, the land of a county is related to the overall situation. Otherwise, no one would agree, so Huang Zhong was somewhat ashamed of his betrayal of Shu.

Afterwards, Huang Zhong didn't answer any more questions, and just buried himself in ordering the camp to be built.

At this time, I heard a voice from behind: "Han Sheng doesn't have to feel ashamed because of this, whether it's the Duke of Shu or the King of Qin, they are all my ministers, and it doesn't matter who they serve, there is no difference." , the most important thing is what is obedient and what is rebellious. Now the king of Qin leads the army to wipe out the gangsters, unify the country, and re-stabilize my great man. Even if such merits are passed on for thousands of years, it is not an exaggeration, and the kingdom of Shu is the minister of my great man. , but now he has changed his course and tried to stand on his own, hindering the unification of my great man, not to mention his behavior is like a mantis holding a chariot, moths flying into the flames, it is ridiculous, even if it can be done, you Zhuge Liang is under Jiuquan, what face do you have to see? Is it the old Duke of Shu who was loyal to the country?"

When Zhuge Liang heard this, he frowned immediately, because the words were so sharp that even he couldn't refute them. He raised his eyes and found that the person who came was actually Liu Ye, a famous counselor under Liu He's command. Hearing that Liu Ziyang had great strategy, and he was also a member of the clan of the Han Dynasty. Liang had always admired him for a long time, but he never wanted to meet here. , it’s just a vain appearance.”

"Oh? I don't know what Kong Ming meant?" Liu Ye frowned and asked.

This time, as Huang Zhong's military advisor, he came to the city of Chengdu. His main task was to judge the situation and break the city in one fell swoop if he had the opportunity. If his judgment was accurate and Huang Zhong broke the city and captured Zhuge Liang on his advice, I believe that my reputation will spread widely.

However, he couldn't tell whether Zhuge Liang was playing tricks or if there was an ambush, so he planned to find Zhuge Liang's flaws through the fight, so as to judge the truth.

Zhuge Liang's intelligence was much higher than that of Liu Ye, so he naturally knew the other party's intentions, but he still said: "Even though they are all Han territory, they are still owned by the state. My lord is the Duke of Shu and the Mu of Yizhou who were conferred by the emperor. , is the legal owner of this place, but the King of Qin sent you and others to lead an army to attack him. This simply means that he does not take the court seriously. In this case, it is your lord who is wrong in the first place and is still boasting here. In fact, It's ridiculous."

Liu Ye's complexion changed when he heard the words, and suddenly he was at the end of his words and had nothing to refute.

At this time, the rumble of horse hooves could be heard behind the formation, and another troop of troops arrived. Liu Ye was overjoyed when he heard this, and borrowed his donkey down the slope and said, "My king is here. If you have anything to say, just tell him directly."

Then Liu Ye followed Huang Zhong to meet Liu He.
