"Brother! Don't be angry. Although we lost again, we are not bankrupt after all! With our efforts, the backstab Yuan Shu's strength is approaching [-] to [-]!"
"Even... and got tens of thousands of gold because of this. Isn't this past experience telling us? We must cheer up when encountering difficulties, so... we can change our fate against the sky!"
Hearing this, Liu Bei seemed to be in a much better mood, and raised his head to see that there was a slight fluctuation in everyone's eyes.
Yuan Shu was so strong back then, he was able to overthrow him...Why can't he try again now?
As soon as this idea came out, Zhang Ren once again stood up while rubbing his chin thoughtfully.
"Uh... this..."
Before he could speak, Guan Yu interrupted with a sullen face: "Have you ever heard of riding a horse?"
Zhang Ren touched his head weakly: "Cough! Coincidentally, I've heard it before!"
"Because of this incident, my lord not only became a great prince, but also killed the traitor Yuan Shu, gaining a lot of fame! For a while, he was in the limelight, and even got the title of emperor uncle!"
"At that time, I didn't know how many heroes there were, so I envied them!"
Hearing this, Liu Bei and Guan Yu looked at each other with satisfaction.
Sure enough, he became famous in the first battle and wiped out the false emperor Yuan Shu. Even Zhang Ren, who was far away in Western Shu, had heard of it.
Just when the two were about to say a few words proudly, Zhang Ren's words made them feel heavy again in the next second.
"It's a pity... I heard that Xia Houzhe transferred tens of thousands of gold, and Xuzhou was also taken by Cao Cao's treachery. It's too tragic! It's really sad to hear and weep!"
Zhang Ren sighed and looked at Liu Bei and Guan Yu sympathetically.
Guan Yu was furious!
"Are you sick from riding a horse? I'm comforting people, and you're just trying to tear things apart? Believe it or not, I'll cut you off?"
Zhang Ren rubbed his nose and smiled mischievously: "But... what I said is the truth, isn't my lord always saying that one should be pragmatic? We can't do this kind of self-consolation and self-deception!"
Guan Yu took a deep breath, the veins on his forehead popped up, and he clenched his fists tightly!
"Just tell me. Is there anything else you don't know? I can choose to comfort you!"
Zhang Ren shrank his head, a little afraid of Guan Yu.
After all, if you are not as skilled as a human being, you can't be tough on the opponent.
"I... I seem to know everything, including the fiasco of Chibi and the loss of Jingzhou..."
Before Zhang Ren finished speaking, he felt Guan Yu's murderous gaze, and quickly changed his voice.
"It's okay, my lord! Look at you, your experience can almost be written into a tragic autobiography. After such difficulties, why can't you survive this time? At worst, start over again, anyway, it's not the first time!"
After listening to Zhang Ren's words, Liu Bei collapsed!
He burst into tears directly.
Guan Yu was furious and pointed at Zhang Ren.
"Come on! Fork out!"
Zhang Ren was chased away by the guards, still muttering in his mouth.
"Why don't people tell the truth? Are there still human rights?"
Seeing this wise Zhang Ren go out of his way, the original group of generals in Xishu, such as Yan Yan, Lei Tong, Gao Pei, Yang Huai and others, all had bright eyes.
While Guan Yu and Liu Bei were not paying attention, he slipped out quietly, as if... to find Zhang Ren.
In the Yamen of Mianzhuguan Mansion, Liu Bei was already crying hoarsely, and finally stopped when the tears ran dry.
After crying and suffering, he felt that the gloom in his heart had been vented a lot, and he cheered up a little.
No matter how hard life is, you have to go on.
"Everyone, we are at an absolute disadvantage now. I'm afraid... with our strength, we can't beat Cao Ying at all!"
"What... do you have a good plan? Anyone who can give me an idea will be rewarded!"
Liu Bei's dead horse is regarded as a living horse doctor.
Regardless of whether the counselor is powerful or not, as long as he makes a plan, he wants to think about it.
He is really unwilling to just give up like this, and he is almost 40 years old.
You know, according to their court statistics, people in this era... have an average life expectancy of only 26.
According to this calculation, he is already an old guy, how can he be reconciled if he has spent his whole life with no achievements?
Everyone was silent, how could they have any idea of giving Liu Bei a plan?
There are only... how to avoid being caught and beheaded by Liu Bei when you surrender to the enemy.
Only the sixth Sima, who is of one mind with Liu Bei, only wants to bring down Cao Cao.
After thinking for a while, Sima Yi stood up.
"My lord! Yi has a strategy, maybe... he can defeat Cao Cao!"
Liu Bei was ecstatic, as if he had grasped a life-saving straw, and rushed over.
"Zhongda! I knew you were reliable, tell me quickly! Tell me your plan!"
Sima Yi pushed Liu Bei away in disgust, took out a map and pointed to the south of Yizhou.
"Hehe, our hope... is Nanban Menghuo!"
"My lord, you should have seen it before, right? Then Meng Huo has an invulnerable strange soldier... rattan armor soldier!"
"With this soldier, Cao Ying can be defeated!"
Chapter 1014 Changes in Western Shu
"Meng Huo? He is my enemy! How can I ask him for help?"
"And... even if I look down on him as a barbarian, they won't make a move on these stubborn things, right?"
After listening to Sima Yi's words, Liu Bei frowned immediately.
The barbarians are very unreasonable, especially Meng Huo, who is the leader of the barbarians.
He only recognizes fists, big fists are king.
And Liu Bei now has more than 2 soldiers left, and the guards who cannot be mobilized in other places in Western Shu are only [-] to [-].
How can we sit on an equal footing with Meng Huo?
Moreover, Meng Huo repeatedly invaded Xishu, and the two sides had already turned against each other. In Liu Bei's eyes, they were completely mortal enemies.
I'm afraid this is not an alliance, but... luring wolves into the house!
Sima Yi naturally understood Liu Bei's worries.
He waved his hand faintly, and Zhizhu said while holding it.
"Don't worry, my lord! Don't you hear... the enemy of your enemy is your friend?"
"If my lord loses Xishu, then Meng Huo will also face the Cao thief directly. Just leave it to your subordinates to persuade you!"
"Relying on the three-inch tongue of this subordinate, it is guaranteed to succeed! Sigh~"
Sima Yi flicked his tongue and licked it vigorously.
The corners of Liu Bei and Guan Yu's eyes trembled, and he waved his hand in disgust.
"It's just...even if the Nanman King is invited, if Cao Ying still beats us with arsenic and the air force, what should we do?"
Sima Yi smiled, his face relaxed: "What are you afraid of? They barbarians have been with the miasma all year round, and they have long been trained to be invulnerable to all poisons."
"It's nothing more than arsenic, but Meng Huo's wife, Zhu Rong, is the high priest, who knows all kinds of poisons, and there must be a way to deal with this thing!"
"It's a big deal, let's use more underwear and sew more hoods to cover our nose and mouth!"
Seeing that there was a way to deal with it, Liu Bei was relieved.
As soon as the voice changed, he immediately urged Sima Yi.
"Then...it's not too late! Nanban is a long way away, please hurry up and get the rescuers! I'm here to order people to sew a hood, just in case!"
"I guess Cao Cao will stay in Jiange for a long time to clean up the arsenic, so he probably won't call so soon!"
Sima Yi cupped his hands, turned and left!
In order to attack Western Shu, Meng Huo stationed troops in Xichang City, which was only a thousand miles away from Mianzhu Pass.
Sima Yi rushed to Xichang in less than two days.
Relying on his eloquence, Sima Yi took great pains to understand Meng Huodong with affection and reason!
But it was useless, Meng Huo not only refused to send troops, but also wanted to take advantage of the situation and kill Sima Yi.
After some fighting, Meng Huo didn't get any advantage at all.
Finally, under the adjustment of his wife Zhu Rong, the two shook hands and made peace.
Similarly, at the suggestion of Mrs. Zhu Rong, the high priest of the Nanman, Meng Huo agreed to send troops to Mianzhu to fight against Cao Cao!
The Nanman army rode elephant soldiers, who could ride from Nanman all the way to Chengdu, so they marched very fast.
Sima Yi went back and forth, and Meng Huo mobilized troops to raise food and grass, but it took less than ten days.
Inside Mianzhu Pass, Liu Bei waited eagerly.
Since Sima Yi left, he hasn't had much rest.
"Second brother, why hasn't Sima Yi come yet? He shouldn't be detained by Meng Huo, right?"
Guan Yu looked helpless: "Brother! Don't walk around, that barbarian's force is at best between him and Sima Yi's brother, no way!"
"Let's... just wait patiently. The journey is far away, and we won't be able to return in a day! And if the barbarian king dispatches troops, it will take even longer!"
Liu Bei let out a long sigh and patted the table heavily.
"Time waits for no one! According to reports from spies, Cao Ying has packed up the Jiange, and will send troops over in the next two days!"
"They can't arrive within a few days, how can we resist Cao Cao? Once Mianzhuguan is lost, there will be no defense in Chengdu, and we can only... be slaughtered!"
As soon as the words fell, Guan Yu hadn't had time to persuade him in the future.
Sima Yi's hearty laughter sounded outside!
"Hahaha! My lord, you don't believe me, Sima Yi, look, who is here outside?"
Sima Yi stepped in.
Meng Huo, Mrs. Zhu Rong, Akuilan, Bringing Cave Master, Wu Tugu and others followed closely behind.
Looking at this group of familiar old opponents, Liu Bei immediately gave orders to the maid.
"Come here! Guests are here, let's have some tea!"
"What kind of tea do you want? Serve me wine, good wine and good meat!"
Meng Huo roared loudly, speaking frivolously and wildly.
Liu Bei didn't care either: "Then serve wine and meat, don't neglect the honored guest!"
With an order, the table was quickly filled with wine and food.
Liu Bei got up straight away and personally poured a glass of wine for Meng Huo's reinforcements.
After all, Meng Huo is his last hope of turning things around, and he cannot be allowed to mess around.
"Everyone, thank you for your help! Sure enough, I answered that sentence, distant relatives are not as good as close neighbors!"
"Bei, thank you here, Barbarian King, Madam, I'll do whatever you want!"
Liu Bei's posture was extremely low, but before he could raise his bowl, Meng Huo interrupted him directly.
"Hey! Don't drink the wine yet. I, Meng Huoke, haven't promised to help you yet. I'm not thankful for my efforts? You're thinking about shit!"
"And...you want to fuck my wife while you're on the horse? Are you courting death?"
Meng Huo was extremely dissatisfied with Liu Bei's empty-handed white wolf method.
On the way, his wife had already told him that he must gain enough benefits to really mobilize troops against Cao Ying!
Otherwise... never offend a powerful enemy.
Liu Bei frowned slightly, pretending to be confused with understanding.
