    Zhang Fei listened to the order, although he was extremely unwilling, but he knew that Zhuge Liang must have deep intentions. He swung his spear at Zhao Yun's face and hurriedly reined in his horse and retreated.  Ma Dai and Pan Ping also withdrew one after another.  Zhao Yun and Zhang Liao were about to take advantage of the situation to cover up the killing, but they heard the military order from Wenhan's soldiers, not to pursue the attack, but to prepare their troops first.

    Zhao Yun and Zhang Liao accepted the order, then rectified their troops and horses with the generals, and slowly marched toward Chengdu.  By dusk, Tang soldiers had arrived ten miles away from the capital city.  Wenhan ordered a rough battalion to be created, and then taught several generals to lead troops to explore outside the camp to prepare for the incoming Shu army. At the same time, he also taught Feiyuan soldiers to be ready at all times. When the order was sounded, they immediately used thunder cannons to defend against the invading enemy.  "Army" "Please search Piaotian Literature, the novels are better and updated faster!"

    At the third watch of the night, the Tang army prepared food and rested.  Wen Han was discussing with Pang Tong, Zhang Song, Zhao Yun, Zhang Liao and other civil and military officials in the tent.  Pang Tong's expression condensed and he attended.

    "Although our army has arrived at the gates of Chengdu, the soldiers have been exhausted after fierce battles today. My lord, you can let the soldiers rest for the night until noon tomorrow before marching."

    When Wenhan heard the words, he understood the truth and nodded.

    "In this way, we can teach the patrolling troops to take turns to rest. However, we must investigate closely. The current situation does not allow for mistakes, otherwise we will fall short!!"

    "My lord is very concerned. I should handle this matter with caution."

    Pang Tong responded with his hands raised.  Wenhan narrowed his eyes, and then asked with a bit of solemnity.

    "The city of Chengdu is impregnable. The Shu people built urn fortifications on all sides of the city gates to guard it, and built deep ditches and earthen fortresses outside the city. According to Shi Yuan's opinion, how should we attack?"

    Pang Tong looked shocked. In the past few days, Wenhan had explained all the characteristics of the thunder cannon.  According to Pang Tong's understanding, this thunder cannon is a long-range weapon with huge lethality that can break mountains and rocks.  Now there are a total of 128 cannons in the army. Wen Han once secretly told Pang Tong that if these 128 cannons were fired at once, they could blow a hill to pieces in an instant!

    Pang Tong darkened his face and thought for a while. On his ugly face, a pair of thin eyes shone brightly, and he spoke in a concentrated voice.

    "Our army does not have many troops, which is not conducive to dividing our troops to attack. However, our army is equipped with magical weapons such as thunder cannons, but it can focus on attacking one. Thunder cannons are long-range weapons and are the key to our army's victory over the enemy. And  It is necessary to prepare for a strong attack by the other army. In my opinion, tomorrow we can teach Fei Yuan's soldiers to take the thunder cannons and arrange them in the front, while General Zhao and General Zhang will each lead a force of troops to guard the two wings, and the Lord will protect them.  The rear army is for defense. Our army will first blow up the Wengcheng, then advance slowly, and then follow the same pattern, blowing open the city gate, and then lead the troops to attack and fight to the death with the Shu soldiers!"

    Wenhan listened to the plan, but he actually had such thoughts in his heart, and he agreed immediately.  After everyone made a decision, they all went to rest in preparation for tomorrow's battle.

    At the same time, in the main hall of Chengdu City.  At this time, the person sitting in the high hall was no longer Liu Bei, but a white face with narrow eyes, a white body, long hands, and big ears that caught the wind. He was quite similar to Liu Bei, but he lacked Liu Bei's majestic spirit and had more.  Points are weak.  It's no wonder. Seeing that this young man is only in his early twenties, the atmosphere in the hall is heavy now, the civil servants' faces are solemn, and the burly soldiers have fierce glints in their eyes, and they all look like ferocious beasts that have been forced to a dead end.  Suddenly, a pair of blood-red eyes looked over. The young man was so frightened that he shrank and almost peed his pants, but fortunately, he gritted his teeth and held back.  The young man's face turned red and his whole body was shaking.  The owner of those blood-red eyes was none other than Zhang Fei.  Zhang Fei frowned and asked anxiously.

    "Is there something serious about the king's body?"

    Zhang Fei¡¯s voice was like thunder, which frightened the young man so much that all his soul was scared away. His crotch was wet and he peed his pants in fear.  This young man is Liu Chan.  When Liu Bei passed away, the country could not live without a king for a day. Zhuge Liang and his ministers asked Liu Chan to take the throne as King of Shu.  However, Liu Chan was still young and had always been timid and spoiled. Although Liu Bei had various teachings for him, he taught him the way of an emperor.  But Liu Chan was born lazy. He heard something here and forgot it there, which made Liu Bei angry and worried.  Therefore, Liu Bei had a message before his death that day, instructing Zhuge Liang to replace Liu Chan if he saw that Liu Chan was incompetent. Either Liu Bei knew Zhuge Liang was loyal and did it deliberately to teach Zhuge Liang to be grateful and devoted himself to death, or he was sincere and sincere, which is not unreasonable.  thing.  However, Liu Bei has passed away, and no one knows the purpose of his final words.

    But it was said that Liu Chan was so frightened that he peed his pants when Zhang Fei yelled at him.  Zhuge Liang saw Liu Chan was about to cry but stopped, and looked over with a pensive look on his face as if he was asking for help.  Zhuge Liang sighed secretly, and then told his ministers that the king was not feeling well, so he went to the back hall to ask the imperial doctor to come for diagnosis and treatment, and ordered the ministers to wait in the main hall for a while.  After hearing this, Liu Chan felt relieved and hurriedly turned into the back hall with his attendants.  Zhuge Liang shook his head and glanced at Fa Zheng. Fa Zheng understood and followed Liu Chan into the back hall.  When Zhang Fei saw this, he thought Liu Changuo was unwell, so heWant to follow.  Fazheng stopped him quickly and whispered something in Zhang Fei's ear.  When Zhang Fei heard this, his ferocious face trembled, and he became angry and purple. He was about to explode, but he held back.

    After a while, Zhuge Liang walked out first, followed by Liu Chan and a group of attendants.  I saw Liu Chan's slightly childish round face, forcing a bit of majesty, his eyes looming, a glimmer of confidence, and he looked at Zhuge Liang with his peripheral vision.  Zhuge Liang responded with a smile.  Liu Chan was suddenly shocked. It seemed that Zhuge Liang must have had a conversation with Liu Chan in the back hall just now.  Immediately, Liu Chan sat down, and the ministers bowed again. Liu Chan moved his hand and drank.  All the ministers stood up one after another.  Liu Chan took a deep breath and said.

    "Now that the Tang Dynasty troops are approaching the city, and the country is in imminent disaster, do you have any plans?"

    As soon as Liu Chan said this, Zhang Feihuan stared, burst out with emotion, and wanted to speak.  Fazheng glanced sharply.  Zhang Fei was full of blood and anger, and he felt that most of the ground had passed. His face trembled, and he deliberately lowered his voice, as if he was just trying to scare a sleeping baby from crying.

    "Your Majesty, there is no need to worry too much. We must use all our strength to ensure that Chengdu is not lost!"

    "With my uncle and my father here, I am not afraid of being alone."

    Liu Chan was convinced and looked at Zhuge Liang with the corner of his eyes.  Yafu, of course, refers to Zhuge Liang.  Liu Bei taught Liu Chan and three other brothers to serve Zhuge Liang as a father.  Liu Chan was also a bit quick-witted. In the back hall just now, he followed Xiang Ji's example of honoring Fan Zeng and called him Yafu.  Although Zhuge Liang didn't dare to accept it, Liu Chan insisted on it. Although Zhuge Liang was helpless, he was even more moved in his heart.  At that time, he thought to himself that he was deeply favored and favored by the Liu family and his son, and he would repay it with his death and revive the Shu Kingdom.  When all the ministers heard that Liu Chan called Zhuge Liang his second father, they all changed their minds, but soon they were relieved and secretly sighed that Liu Chan was quite smart.

    Zhuge Liang's expression condensed, and he quickly came out and bowed his hands.

    "I have been deeply favored by the king, and I have no way to repay you. Your Majesty, don't worry about it. The city of Chengdu is as solid as gold, with copper walls and iron walls. There are four urns guarding the four gates, and there are earth fortresses and deep trenches built outside the city. Our army only needs  After guarding Chengdu for several months, the army had no food and naturally retreated. By then, the princes must have reported the news to Cao Cao. Cao Cao, as a powerful man in the world, must have known what was at stake and sent troops to help, waiting for the opportunity.  Come, move with great force, regain the territory, and then plan for the future.¡±

    Zhuge Liang spoke sharply and wisely, but Liu Chan was confused as if listening to a book from heaven. However, Liu Chan had some wisdom and nodded immediately.

    "What Yafu said is true. Everything can be done as you say."

    Zhuge Liang frowned after hearing this, secretly wanting to attack, but he couldn't express it clearly.  Sure enough, Zhang Fei stared at him and shouted angrily.

    "Even though what the military advisor said is reasonable, the king is the king of a country, how can he have no opinion and act like a puppet!?"

    Zhang Fei roared with a thunderous voice, and the entire hall suddenly seemed to be shaking. All the ministers felt a buzzing in their ears, and all of them changed color.  Liu Chan was even more unbearable, he was so frightened that he was trembling all over. The slightest bit of dignity that Rongyi had pretended just now was gone in an instant.  Zhuge Liang hurriedly advised him.

    "Yi De calms down his anger. Your Majesty's deep faith in Yu Liang actually makes Liang panic. Liang is grateful for this kindness and must use all his strength to do so. This is the way for a king to employ people. There is no need to worry too much about Yi De."

    After Zhang Fei heard this, he turned to look at Zhuge Liang. Seeing the magnanimous look on Zhuge Liang's face, his heart tightened.  How could Zhang Fei not know who Zhuge Liang was, but bijing was related to the etiquette between the monarch and his ministers.  Now that Liu Bei has passed away, Zhang Fei is worried about what his nephew Liu Chan is capable of. He is afraid that one day, the emperor and his ministers will not be distinguished, and the court will be in trouble.  What will happen if Zhuge Liang has evil intentions and peeks into the foundation of Shu?  People will not remain unchanged, especially in the face of huge interests.  Zhang Fei was also worried that Zhuge Liang would lose control one day!

    Zhuge Liang and Zhang Fei looked at each other, then looked away for a moment.  Zhang Fei had a cold face and closed his eyes without saying a word.  Zhuge Liang then glanced at Liu Chan.  Liu Chan still had lingering fear on his face, but when he saw Zhang Fei remained silent, he said with some courage.

    "I heard what Yafu said is very reasonable. I wonder if you gentlemen have any other wise ideas?"

    After Liu Chan finished speaking, all the civil and military officials looked at each other in disbelief, and then they all came out and bowed their hands.

    "I all feel that what the military advisor said is very appropriate and should be obeyed."

    After hearing this, Liu Chan turned to look at Zhang Fei.  Zhang Fei still closed his eyes and pondered, apparently acquiescing.  Only then did Liu Chan feel calm, trembled a few times, and spoke urgently.

    "It turns out that all the Qing family think this is appropriate, then they will follow Yafu's words and guard the city to resist the Tang army!!"

    "I have received my order and will defend Chengdu to the death!!"

    All the ministers raised their hands and responded sternly.  Liu Chan then exchanged glances with Zhuge Liang. Seeing Zhuge Liang secretly nodding his head, he was immediately relieved and told all the ministers to retire. All ministers bowed.Liu Chan quickly fled back to the back hall with his attendants. When the ministers saw him, some shook their heads and sighed, some looked worried, and some sneered secretly.  Zhang Feihuan opened his eyes and saw Zhuge Liang in front of him. Zhuge Liang had been waiting for a while and said with his hands.

    "The king is still young and is not familiar with the ways of a monarch and his ministers. Yide is the king's closest relative, so I hope he can teach you patiently."

    Zhang Fei frowned, an inexplicable change of color flashed across his eyes, and there was a hint of shame, but he soon recovered, his face was solemn, he nodded, and then looked towards the back hall.  When Zhuge Liang saw Zhang Fei leaving, he sighed deeply. He had sighed countless times since Liu Bei passed away and the Tang army reached Chengdu.  And every time Zhuge Liang sighed, he seemed a little older.  Now Zhuge Liang is nearly forty years old, but he looks like he is fifty years old. If this continues, I am afraid that Zhuge Liang will die of mental and physical exhaustion sooner or later.

    A breeze blew through the hall, and the lonely figure looked particularly desolate and lonely.
