Three Kingdoms: Stealing the Tiger Talisman and forcing Yuan Shao to become a monk

Chapter 856 Another Northern Expedition
After Zhang Bao attacked Badong County this time, he brought everyone back to Berkshire.

Then he hurriedly reported the results of the battle to Zhuge Liang.

Zhuge Liang was also actively preparing for the battle in Chengdu at the moment, when he received a letter from Zhang Bao.

Zhuge Liang also knew that it was time for him to send troops again, so he hurried into the palace to meet Liu Chan.

However, Liu Chan has been very leisurely recently. Since Zhuge Liang is in Chengdu, he can push Zhuge Liang to do many things.

Liu Chan himself can spare more time to have fun.

After meeting Zhuge Liang today, Liu Chan, who was originally in a good mood, heard Zhuge Liang express his desire to go to war again.

His face also turned a little hesitant.

"Father Xiang, didn't you just come back not long ago? Why do you want to fight again? Are you a little anxious." Liu Chan asked.

Zhuge Liang replied respectfully: "Your Majesty, I just received the battle report from General Zhang Bao today. Now that Yuan Jun's food and grass are all destroyed, it is really a great opportunity to drive the Yuan family out of Sichuan. Naturally, we can't miss it."

"Oh? Really?" Liu Chan always had some doubts on the surface, but he couldn't help feeling pity in his heart.

Zhuge Liang did not see it, and immediately said: "That's right, Your Majesty, if I lead the army to attack again at this moment, Yuan Jun will definitely be unable to resist. When the time comes..."

However, before Zhuge Liang finished speaking, Liu Chan raised his hand and interrupted Zhuge Liang's words.

Then he asked: "But Xiangfu, can we support such a large-scale war in Sichuan now?"

Liu Chan's question also directly hit the key point.

Whether Liu Bei buried the foundation of Shuzhong in Jingzhou at that time, or Zhuge Liang is now leading the army one after another.

The current Shuzhong economy is still beginning to decline.

Whether it can withstand such an expedition now is really a key question.

Zhuge Liang also frowned slightly and said: "Your Majesty's worries are not unreasonable, but the current situation does not allow me to rest and recuperate. If I don't immediately take advantage of Yuan Jun's recovery and drive him out of Shu, wait for him Now that the problem is solved, it will be our army who will suffer.”

Liu Chan also understands this truth at the moment, but if Zhuge Liang is allowed to leave just because of this matter, then those troublesome things in the court will fall on him again.

This is also something that makes Liu Chan extremely troubled.

"But if Xiangfu is going to fight in person at this moment, I'm afraid that I will not be able to cope with the affairs of the court! If what happened before happened again, what should I do?" Liu Chan also showed embarrassment.

Zhuge Liang saw that Liu Chan was worried about these problems.

Then he replied: "Your Majesty, please don't worry about this matter. It was because of my lack of consideration and improper arrangements that caused turmoil in the court. Therefore, this time, I have already written the form, which is to put this Shu Zhong The arrangements for large and small affairs are properly recorded, and His Majesty only needs to act according to the content."

As he said that, he asked someone to send this memorial.

Liu Chan's complexion improved slightly after reading the memorial.

And what Zhuge Liang presented this time was the Minutes of Central Shu that he painstakingly wrote after several days and nights.

Its content not only records Zhuge Liang's thoughts and thoughts, but also arranges the affairs in central Sichuan.

And this memorial is also called the teacher's watch by later generations.

However, this list of teachers is not just a memorial, but more like Zhuge Liang's suicide note.

Looking at it, Liu Chan couldn't help feeling a little worried.

Then he said, "Father Xiang, what do you mean?"

Zhuge Liang smiled wryly and said: "I know that I am too anxious to go out this time, so the outcome is really unpredictable, and I am afraid that it will be difficult to return. If the minister really encounters an accident, I hope that your majesty will not play as hard as before, so that This will destroy the great cause of the former king."

When Liu Chan heard Zhuge Liang's persuasion, he was moved by him for a while.

Immediately responded: "I will obey Xiangfu's warning, and I will not be so playful in the future, and I will manage the state affairs well, and I will not disappoint Xiangfu."

Zhuge Liang also nodded slightly and said: "It's fine if that's the case, then I don't have to worry about going out this time."

At this moment, Liu Chan didn't want to let Zhuge Liang go to war anymore.

But this is just Liu Chan's wishful thinking.

After all, from the perspective of the great cause of the Kingdom of Shu, Zhuge Liang's expedition this time is imperative.

If Liu Chan really wants to stop it, will it disappoint Zhuge Liang?

Therefore, Liu Chan was forced to comply with Zhuge Liang's request.

After Zhuge Liang thanked Liu Chan, he left without looking back.

Looking at Zhuge Liang's figure, Liu Chan was quite moved at the moment.

However, a person came up behind him and said: "Your Majesty is really lucky to have a wise minister like Prime Minister Zhuge, and it is the luck of the Kingdom of Shu!"

Liu Chan also looked back and found that the speaker was actually Huang Hao.

Therefore, he also sighed and said: "Yes, the ability of the father is really a heavenly man. How can Ranggu live up to his entrustment?"

Huang Hao said immediately: "Your Majesty is a wise king, so he can naturally handle many current affairs well, and he will definitely not disappoint Prime Minister Zhuge."

Liu Chan said, "I hope so!"

After Liu Chan finished speaking, he also left slowly.

The movement here was originally thinking about returning to the harem, but I remembered that Zhuge Liang had just entrusted me with a heavy responsibility.

For a moment, he could only turn unwillingly and walk to the study.

Is to prepare to deal with some official business.

Huang Hao, who was behind him, had a bit more cunning in his eyes at this moment, and he didn't know what he was planning at this moment.

And Zhuge Liang met Liu Chan in person, so he invited him to go out for the expedition.

Immediately, I wanted to call on all the soldiers to prepare to leave for Hanzhong again.

This time, he was ready to put all his eggs in one basket and must drive Yuan Tan away from Hanzhong.

But just before Zhuge Liang had time to leave.

But he received another urgent report.

And it was this urgent message that disrupted Zhuge Liang's plan for a while.

Let Zhuge Liang who was going to attack Hanzhong.

At this moment, it is also necessary to readjust the expedition route.

And the content of this urgent report is that Jiang Wei of Tianshui also led an army to join Yuan Jun of Wudu County.

At the same time, he also led his troops to kill Yinping County.

And if the Yin Ping is broken, Chengdu will be directly exposed to Yuan Jun.

How could Zhuge Liang accept this.

Therefore, at this moment, we can only give up attacking Hanzhong first, and can only rush to lead troops to Yinping County now.

At the same time, Zhuge Liang also recalled Zhang Bao and Guan Xing from Bajun.

Since the Badong grain and grass have been destroyed, there is no need to spend a lot of time on the Bajun Waterway there.

After all, the current Zhuge Liang is also incapable of fighting, so he can only fall to his own hands.

Only in this way can we have the power to fight Yuan Jun.
