System Blessing: The Young Master of the Dong Family and Diao Chan's Fate

The fire at Bowangpo still broke out.

However, this time the fire did not cause much trouble to Dong Jun, it was only able to delay Dong Jun's advance.

Although Liu Bei gained a chance to catch his breath, Zhuge Liang faced a personal career crisis.

Zhang Fei and Guan Yu escaped back one after another in the evening.

Fortunately, Zhang Fei's troops were well preserved. After all, Han Hao only set fire to the periphery and did not rashly enter the forest to fight with Liu's army.

It’s not that Han Hao was scared and didn’t dare to enter the grove.

But he didn't know how many enemies were in the woods.

If you rush in rashly, you might encounter unexpected accidents.

As a surrendered general, he dared not make any mistakes.

堂内

Zhang Fei had one eye open and one closed, his anger almost burning the house down.

"Brother, no matter what, there is something wrong with this Zhuge Liang!"

"I was hiding well in the woods, but the enemy just set fire to it and burned it down."

"Why is the enemy so confident? Who dares to say there is nothing fishy going on here?"

Zhang Fei pointed at Zhuge Liang and shouted at Liu Bei.

"Third brother is right. I also think there is a problem."

"At the time, I was hiding in the bushes at the foot of Yushan Mountain with my men. As soon as I looked up, Dong Jun was right beside us."

"Hiss, ouch, my arm was hit by an arrow."

"Not only that, after I fought hard and drove back the enemy, I wanted to lead my troops to support my eldest brother."

"Who would have thought that we would be ambushed by the enemy on the way and nearly lose our lives."

Guan Yu covered his right arm and agreed.

"military adviser..."

As Liu Bei listened to his brothers' stories, he couldn't help but look at Zhuge Liang hesitantly.

Is this person any good?

He suddenly became suspicious.

The number of casualties in this battle was not many, only two or three thousand.

Compared with previous failures, the number of deaths this time was relatively small.

But what Liu Bei found most difficult to accept was actually Chen Dao’s death.

"My lord, do you also suspect me of collaborating with the enemy?"

Zhuge Liang looked at Liu Bei with some grievance.

Both Guan and Zhang's words implied that Zhuge Liang was secretly communicating with the enemy and leaking military secrets.

"No, the military advisor is overthinking it."

"I just hope that the military advisor can explain and summarize the reasons for the defeat so that we can defeat the enemy next time."

Liu Bei winked at Zhuge Liang.

After this battle, it would be difficult for Zhuge Liang to change Zhang Fei and Guan Yu's views of him.

Therefore, Liu Bei planned to let Zhuge Liang use his eloquence to appease the two restless people.

"This battle was indeed a mistake on my part. I failed to defeat the enemy, but instead suffered heavy casualties and General Chen Dao was killed in battle."

Zhuge Liang also knew that he had indeed miscalculated, and immediately bowed to Liu Bei.

"Military advisor... victory and defeat are common in war."

"Has Bei commanded the army for many years, but he has been defeated time and again, and has he fought again and again?"

"Don't blame yourself too much, we can win it back next time."

Liu Bei quickly helped Zhuge Liang up and spoke to comfort him.

"Lord!"

"Liang, I will help the lord achieve great things!"

Zhuge Liang was very moved and immediately said with a moving expression.

"it is good!"

Liu Bei patted the back of Zhuge Liang's hand.

Although Liu Bei did not blame Zhuge Liang too much, the importance he attached to him gradually decreased.

On the contrary, Xu Shu, who had been working diligently since joining him, made him pay more attention to him.

He is not boastful, but calm, capable, and just knows how to get to work.

Compared to Zhuge Liang, who is famous but has nothing to show for himself, he seems to be more suitable for me.

Liu Bei subconsciously glanced at the silent Xu Shu.

"Hmph, it's just him. Thank God he didn't send us all underground."

"If you know you're wrong, then leave."

"Staying here will only hinder us!"

Guan Yu didn't say anything, but Zhang Fei kept nagging.

Listening to everyone's criticism and considering the look Liu Bei gave him, Xu Shu couldn't help but frown.

isn't it?

You don't want me to drive Kong Ming away, do you?
