Taking stock of the counselor rankings, Guo Jia only ranks at the bottom?

In the 24th year of Jian'an,

Liu Bei and Cao Cao were at a standoff in Hanzhong.

Liu Bei hurriedly sent people to Chengdu to ask Zhuge Liang to mobilize troops to support him. Zhuge Liang asked Yang Hong if he could send troops.

Yang Hong believed that Hanzhong was the throat of Yizhou and Cao Cao came to seize it. Disaster, a chance of survival, advises Zhuge Liang to send troops immediately at this time.

Zhuge Liang also made a prompt decision and immediately sent a large number of troops to support Liu Bei.

The Battle of Hanzhong ended with Liu Bei's victory.

In July, Liu Bei proclaimed himself King of Hanzhong.

At this point, Liu Bei has completely realized it.

Zhuge Liang formulated the strategic goal of"crossing Jingjing and benefiting" in the"Longzhong Countermeasures".

However, at this moment, something unexpected happened again.

That was when Lu Su, who had organized the Sun-Liu Alliance with Zhuge Liang, died of illness.

His replacement was Sun Quan's favorite general, Lu Meng.

Lu Meng thus became the third governor of Soochow.

But Lu Meng was not a supporter of the Sun-Liu alliance.

Lu Meng of Soochow strongly advocated the plan of"taking Guan Yu and Jingzhou and occupying the entire Yangtze River"

Eventually, the Wu-Shu alliance finally broke down after Lu Su's death.

In the winter of the 24th year of Jian'an,

Guan Yu took advantage of Cao Cao's northern expedition.

Lu Meng led the Dongwu army, crossed the river in white clothes, killed Guan Yu, and captured Jingzhou

"As a result, the"Longzhong Countermeasures" suffered a major setback and turned into nothing!

And looking at this scene, people all over the Han Dynasty couldn't help but sigh.

"Zhuge Liang's Longzhong plan failed after all. Although this plan was perfect, it was not that simple to complete it. Unfortunately, it was just one step away!!"

"If Lu Su can live ten more years, maybe the Sun-Liu Alliance plan can continue and

Longzhong can really succeed!!"

"Although Lü Meng's strategy and resourcefulness are also very extraordinary, when it comes to grand strategy capabilities,

Lü Meng is still far behind Zhuge Liang and Lu Su!!"

In Chenliu County,

Cao Cao saw that Guan Yu was attacked and died.

Zhuge Liang's Longzhong pair was completely shattered.

He also showed a look of luck.

Longzhong pair was too great a threat to him.

If he goes on step by step.

Maybe we could really defeat him, but fortunately we still failed in the end.

The Sun-Liu alliance was also completely damaged.

"Fortunately, Lu Meng helped me a lot, and killed Guan Yu in a sneak attack!!"

"Otherwise, this Longzhong pair is really too much of a threat to me."

"Fortunately, fortunately!!"

In Jing 407 Prefecture, within Gulongzhong.

Zhuge Liang was on the bed in front of the thatched cottage.

He shook his white feather fan and saw the scene of Guan Yu's death in the Battle of Maicheng.

He also knew very well in his heart that his Longzhong was against Grand strategy may be considered a complete failure at this point.

"Why would it be? ? My Longzhong vs. grand strategy has reached its extreme, why can’t I succeed!!"

"If my plan fails, is it because my destiny fails? ?"

"Could it be that the big man's luck was destined to be lost after all? ?"

"The long sky, how can it be thinner than me!!"

Zhuge Liang looked at the sky and couldn't help crying.

There were even two lines of tears flowing from the corners of his eyes!!

Liu Bei was in Gaotang County.

He couldn't help but show a look of disappointment.

"The plan that the military advisor entrusted to me failed after all!!"

"It seems that no matter how perfect a plan is, it is still a plan after all. It’s not 100% successful!!"

Guan Yu couldn't help but said to his elder brother:

"Brother, I'm sorry, it was all my fault, otherwise such a good plan as the military advisor would not have failed!!"

Liu Bei shook his head and said:"Second brother, there is no need to say this, you have already done a good enough job."

"This Soochow sneak attack was something no one could have imagined."

Everyone was talking.

The scene continued.

In the first year of Yankang,

Cao Pi usurped the Han Dynasty and established himself. It was rumored that Liu Xie, the emperor of Han Dynasty, was killed by Cao Pi.

So the ministers persuaded Liu Bei, who had become the king of Hanzhong, to ascend the throne as emperor, but

Liu Bei refused at first. ,

Zhuge Liang persuaded Liu Bei with the story of Geng Chun lobbying Liu Xiu to ascend the throne.

After Liu Bei agreed, he proclaimed himself emperor in 221, named the country"Han", appointed Zhuge Liang as prime minister, recorded the minister's affairs, and took holidays.

In the same year, Zhang Fei was killed, and Zhuge Liang He held the post of Lieutenant of the Sili School.

He was already a very popular minister and had power over the entire government.

In July of the first year of Zhangwu,

Liu Bei wanted to recapture Jingzhou and avenge his second brother.

So he personally led an army to attack Wu.

Zhuge Liang knew about the attack. The success was not great, and he did not want the Sun-Liu alliance that he had promoted to completely collapse.

So he persuaded Liu Bei not to attack Soochow.

But at this moment, Liu Bei was completely dazzled by the anger of Guan Yu's death.

And he was the best at persuading Liu Bei. Zheng was already dead.

How could he listen to Zhuge Liang's words? He still insisted on leading the army to attack Soochow.

Even because of the dissuasion of Zhuge Liang and Zhao Yun, he did not take the two people and

Zhang Wu years.

In the end, Liu Bei was naturally not Soochow's opponent.

Lu Xun's strategy of burning the company failed completely, and

Liu Bei was defeated in Yiling.

The soldiers suffered heavy losses.

But at the same time as the failure, Zhuge Liang was about to perform another miracle.

Soon the picture became clear..After the battle, soldiers set fire to the mountains everywhere, the Shu army was in chaos, and Liu Bei panicked.

Fortunately, Guan Xing led several cavalry up the mountain and asked Liu Bei to flee to Baidi City.

Liu Bei asked:"Who dares to cut off the rear?"

Fu Tong said:"I am willing to fight to the death to resist!""

At dusk that day, Guan Xing was in front, Zhang Bao was in the middle, and Fu Tong was left behind to protect Liu Bei and kill him down the mountain.

Seeing Liu Bei's escape, all the generals in the Wu army wanted to take credit, and each led his army to pursue and kill him westward.

Liu Bei ordered all the sergeants to kill him. He took off his clothes and armor, blocked the road and burned them to stop the pursuers.

As he was escaping, Wu general Zhu Ran led a group of troops to kill from the river and blocked the way.

Liu Bei sighed:"I am going to die here!""

Guan Xing and Zhang Bao rushed to kill them, but were shot back by random arrows. They were each seriously injured and could not fight out.

The shouts started again from behind, and Lu Xun led his army to kill from the valley.

Liu Bei was panicking, but he saw the shouts in front of him shaking the sky, and

Zhu Ran's soldiers The horses rolled down the ditch one after another, and a group of men and horses came to rescue them. Liu Bei was overjoyed. He saw that it was Zhao Zilong from Changshan.

Zhao Yun was originally in Jiangzhou in central Sichuan. When he heard that Wu and Shu were at war, he led his army here.

Seeing the flames rising to the sky in the southeast, Zhao Yun was frightened and scouted from a distance.

Unexpectedly, Liu Bei was trapped, so he led his army to fight bravely.

Lu Xun heard that it was Zhao Yun and hurriedly retreated. While Zhao Yun was killing, he encountered Zhu Ran and fought with him.

In one round, he defeated Zhu Ran, killed the Wu soldiers, rescued Liu Bei, and rushed to Baidi City.

Liu Bei said:"Although I escaped, what should you soldiers do?

Zhao Yun said:"The enemy is behind us, so we cannot delay." Your Majesty will go to Baidi City to rest, and then I will lead my troops to rescue the generals."

At this time, there were only more than a hundred people left around Liu Bei entering Baidi City.

After Fu Tong was cut off, he was surrounded by Wu troops from all sides.

Ding Feng shouted:"Countless Sichuan soldiers have died, and many have surrendered.

Your lord Liu Bei has been captured. Now that you are exhausted and alone, why not surrender as soon as possible! Fu

Tong cursed:"I am a Han general, how could I surrender to Wu Gou!""

He raised his spear and rode his horse, and led the Shu army to fight to the death. No less than a hundred horses were left. There were conflicts and they couldn't get away.

Fu Tong sighed and said:"I'm done for today!"

After saying that, he vomited blood and died in the Wu army. (To read Baoshuang novels, go to Feilu Novel Network!)

Fu Wei died in the battle to save the First Lord, and his son Fu Qian also fought to save the Shu Han. He died to the end.

The father and son were definitely models of loyalty to the Shu Han people.

Shu sacrificed wine to Cheng Ji and ran to the river to notify the navy to fight the enemy. The Wu soldiers followed, and the navy fled in all directions.

Cheng Ji's general shouted:" Wu soldiers are coming, Cheng Jijiu, please retreat quickly!"

Cheng Ji was furious and said:"Since the Lord went out to the army, I have never escaped from battle!"

Before he finished speaking, the Wu army came and Cheng Ji drew his sword and committed suicide.

The most regrettable thing about the battle of Yiling was that a number of loyal ministers and good generals died.

Historically, Cheng Ji could have abandoned the ship and escaped, but he had integrity and refused to retreat. , and finally died in battle.

If it could be preserved, Zhuge Liang would not have anyone available for the Northern Expedition later.

At this time, Wu Ban and Zhang Nan had been besieging Yiling City.

Suddenly Feng Xi arrived and said that the Shu army was defeated, so he led his army forward came to rescue Liu Bei, and Sun Huan escaped from danger.

Zhang Nan and Feng Xi were walking in the middle, and the Wu soldiers in front (cefb) came to kill. Behind them, Sun Huan came out from Yiling City and attacked from both sides.

Zhang Nan and Feng Xi fought hard to kill, but died in the chaos. Among the troops.

Wu Ban broke out of the siege and was chased by Wu soldiers.

Fortunately, he was rescued by Zhao Yun and was rescued back to Baidi City.

Barbarian King Samoko fled on horseback and met Zhou Tai.

The two fought for more than 20 rounds. After that, he was finally beheaded by Zhou Tai.

Shu generals Du Lu and Liu Ning all surrendered, and countless Shu soldiers surrendered.

Mrs. Sun was in Soochow. When she heard that Liu Bei was defeated and died in the rebellion, she drove to the riverside.

Looking to the west, he cried loudly and threw himself into the river.

The Shu army was killed and surrendered, and the entire army was annihilated. Lu

Xun won a great victory and led his troops to pursue westward. The front was not far from Kui Pass.

When Lu Xun was on horseback, he saw a terrifying murderous aura rising from the mountains and rivers in front of him, so he reined in his horse and turned around and said to the generals:

"There must be an ambush ahead, so don't go in lightly."

So he withdrew his troops for more than ten miles and formed a formation in an open area to prepare for battle.

Then he sent detective horses to investigate, but the report said that there were no troops stationed here.

Lu Xun did not believe that there were no troops in front of him, but they were murderous, so he climbed up Waiting and watching, but at this time, murderous intent rose again.

Lu Xun had no choice but to send people to investigate carefully, but still reported that there was no one riding in front of him.

Seeing that the sun was going to set, Lu Xun's murderous intent became more and more serious, and he hesitated, so he continued He sent his trusted people to investigate and reported that there were only eighty or ninety piles of rubble on the riverside and no one was there.

Lu Xun was very puzzled and asked some locals to ask.

Lu Xun asked:"Who piled up the rubbish on the riverside?"

Why is there murderous intent in the pile of rocks?"

The locals said:"This place is called Yufupu.

When Zhuge Liang entered Sichuan, he led his troops to pass by and piled stones on the beach in an array.

From then on, there would often be cloud-like Qi rising from within. After hearing this

, Lu Xun led dozens of riders to see the stone formation.

He immediately stood on the hillside and saw that there were doors and households in all directions of the stone formation.

Lu Xun smiled and said,"This is just a lie. What's the use?""

So he led his troops to ride down the hillside and went directly into the formation to watch.

The general said:"It's sunset, please go back early."

Lu Xun was about to go out into battle, when suddenly a strong wind blew up, flying sand and rocks in an instant, covering the sky and covering the earth.

He saw strange rocks and craggy rocks, with branches like swords; sand and soil standing on top of each other, overlapping like mountains; the sound of the river surged like the sound of swords and drums.

Lu Xun was shocked. Said:"I fell into Zhuge's scheme!"

When I wanted to get out of the battle, there was no way out.

In the midst of surprise, an old man suddenly stood in front of the horse and said with a smile:

"Does the general want to get out of this formation?

Lu Xun said,"Please take us out, please!""

The old man walked forward slowly with his cane, and walked directly out of the stone formation without any obstacles. He sent Lu Xun to the hillside.

Lu Xun asked,"Who is this old man?

The old man replied:"I am Huang Chengyan, the father-in-law of Zhuge Kongming."

When my son-in-law entered Sichuan, he built a stone formation here, called the Eight Formations.

Repeat the eight gates of Dunjia: Xiu, Sheng, Shang, Du, Jing, Death, Jing, and Kai.

Every day and every hour, there are unpredictable changes, equivalent to one hundred thousand elite soldiers.

When he left, he told the old man:

If a Soochow general is trapped in the formation in the future, you should not take him out.

I was on top of the rock just now and saw the general entering through the Death Gate.

I expected that if I didn't recognize this formation, I would be trapped.

I like to do good deeds in my life, and I can't bear to see the general die here, so I brought you out from the gate of life.

Lu Xun asked,"Have you ever learned this formation?"

Huang Chengyan said:"This formation has endless changes and cannot be learned." Lu

Xun hurriedly dismounted, thanked him and returned.

When Lu Xun returned to the village, he couldn't help but sigh:

"Kong Ming is really a crouching dragon, I can’t compare to him!"

So he ordered his troops to retreat.

He said to his left and right:"Liu Bei has been defeated like a mountain and is trapped in a city. We can take advantage of the situation to pursue him.

Why did you retreat when you saw the stone formation today?

Lu Xun said:"I am not afraid of the stone formation and retreating."

I believe Cao Pi, the Lord of Wei, is as treacherous as his father.

Now we know that our army is chasing the Shu soldiers and will definitely take advantage of the opportunity to attack.

If our army goes deep into Xichuan, it will be difficult to withdraw. So he ordered a general to retreat and lead his army back.

Less than two days after retreating, troops and horses from three places flew to report:"Wei soldiers Cao Ren came out of Ruxu, Cao Xiu came out of the cave, Cao Zhen came out of Nanjun, hundreds of thousands of soldiers and horses in three groups invaded the border.".

Lu Xun smiled and said,"It's just as I expected."

I have sent troops to resist the enemy."

This is another miracle of Zhuge Liang's

Eight Formations.

And everyone was completely impressed by Zhuge Liang's Eight Formations.

"This Zhuge Liang is not only extremely resourceful, but also powerful in internal affairs. He is even invincible in Qimen Dunjia. Even his formations are so terrifying. He is truly a genius and all-rounder that is unique in the world!!"

"This Zhuge Liang is really the perfect counselor in the world.

How great it would be if he could come to my side and help me!!"

In August, Liu Bei retreated to Yong'an.

Zhuge Liang sighed:"It's a pity that Fazheng has passed away, otherwise his majesty's eastward expedition would have been prevented.

Ma Liang arrived at this time and saw that the army had been defeated. He regretted it and reported Zhuge Liang's words to Liu Bei. Liu Bei sighed and said,"If I had listened to the Prime Minister earlier, I wouldn't have been defeated today!"

How dare you go back to Chengdu to meet the ministers now?"

So he stationed himself in Baidi City and changed the post office to Yong'an Palace.

The spies reported that Feng Xi, Zhang Nan, Fu Tong, Cheng Ji, Samoko, etc. had all been killed in the battle.

Liu Bei was very sad.

Another close official reported:"Huang Quan led the troops north of the Yangtze River and surrendered to Wei.

Your Majesty can send his family members to the judicial department for questioning.

Liu Bei said:"Huang Quan was cut off by Wu soldiers on the north bank of the Yangtze River. He had no way to return, so he surrendered to Wei as a last resort."

It was I who failed Huang Quan, not Huang Quan who failed me. Why should I blame his family?"

So he continued to support Huang Quan's family.

After Huang Quan surrendered to Wei, the generals took him to see Cao Pi.

Cao Pi said:"You are surrendering to me now.

Do you want to imitate Chen Ping and Han Xin?".
