Chapter 408: Scared and scared

Thanks to the helpless instant noodle brothers for a monthly ticket!

Thinking of the history of later generations, he became the first king to establish the country and the first to die in the country, Liu Zhang shuddered, and the idea of making peace with the Wei State was even heavier.

Liu Zhang, who was in fear, seemed to have completely forgotten the geographical advantages of Bashu, and forgot that Cao Cao still had so much spare strength to continue to attack Bashu, which was difficult to attack.

Liu Zhang forgot about it, but some of the clear-minded civil and military forces under his command did not forget it, Huang Quan is one of them, hearing that Liu Zhang seemed to have any idea of making peace with the Wei State, Huang Quan's face changed, and he stood up and said: "Your Majesty, you must not, you must not make peace with Cao Wei, the unification inherited by your Majesty is the orthodoxy of the Han Dynasty, then Cao Cao usurped the Han Dynasty and became self-reliant, and it was a great rebellion, if Your Majesty made peace with him, then where is the orthodoxy of my Han Dynasty, how do the previous emperors look at it, and how happy the pseudo-Han of Jingzhou Liu Biao is, The subjects and people of the world, how disappointed they should be, His Majesty Xià and Cao Wei made peace, it was completely self-exclusion and Xichuan, self-isolation and the world! ”

Huang Quan wants to say that he is a loyal minister, that doesn't count, after all, he is above history, first loyal to Liu Zhang, then loyal to Liu Bei, and finally surrendered to Wei, loyal to Cao Pi, Emperor Wen of Wei at that time, can be described as three changes of ownership, such a person is really not a loyal minister.

Huang Quan is a person, and he can only say that he has a good interpretation of what he does in his position and seeks his government, and when he is loyal to Liu Zhang, he is all for Liu Zhang's sake, and this is why Huang Quan desperately prevents Liu Zhang from letting Liu Bei enter Bashu, and in the same way, when he is loyal to Liu Bei and Cao Pi, he is like this, regardless of the fact that the person he is loyal to was once an enemy, and the person he dealt with was once his own lord, Your Majesty.

When he was loyal to Liu Bei, Huang Quan in 215 A.D. (the twentieth year of Jian'an), Cao Cao broke Zhang Lu, and when Zhang Lu fled into Bazhong, he said to Liu Bei: "If you lose Hanzhong, the land of Sanba will be threatened, which will cut off the thighs and arms of Shudi." ”

So Liu Bei took Huang Quan as his protector and led the generals into Bazhong, but Zhang Lu had already returned to Nanzheng and surrendered to Cao Cao. After that, Liu Bei defeated Du Hao and Pu Hu, attacked and killed Xiahou Yuan, and occupied Hanzhong.

People in later generations only knew that the strategy of attacking Hanzhong mainly relied on Fazheng, but they did not know that these strategies were first thought up by Huang Quan for Liu Bei.

Of course, Huang Quan in this time and space didn't know that his life would change hands three times, and at this time, he still tried his best to stop Liu Zhang's idea of making peace with Cao Cao.

Liu Zhang, this person, is not good, but one thing is not bad, that is, he is very kind to his subordinates, so even if he is severely opposed by Huang Quan, Liu Zhang is only a little angry, and most of them are still worried: "How can I not know, it's just that the puppet Han of Jingzhou and the state of Wu have been defeated, and when the Wei army is still at war today, only my Han is left, if Cao Cao is angry, hundreds of thousands of elite Wei troops are pressing on my Xichuan and leading the war to Xichuan, I am so worthy of the people of Xichuan and worthy of the first emperor!" ”

What Liu Zhang said is very good, but he has been loyal to Liu Zhang for so long, how could Huang Quan not hear the true meaning of Liu Zhang's words, it is true that he is afraid that Xichuan will fall into the flames of war, but more importantly, he is still afraid that he will be destroyed by Cao Cao and become the king of the dead country.

Huang Quan, who understood what Liu Zhang was afraid of, was not anxious anymore, and changed his appearance to Shi Shiran and said: "Your Majesty, since ancient times, in addition to the country of abundance, Bashu has been easy to defend and difficult to attack, the difficulty of Shu Road, it is difficult to go to the blue sky, even if the Wei army is coming, it is even more difficult to destroy my Han if you want to come to the city, not to mention, whether the Wei army has the spare strength to attack my Han is a problem, Your Majesty, don't forget it, Guanzhong Xiliang still has a cold, Qin and the two countries, before the two countries behind them are resolved, It is impossible for the Wei army to attack my Han at all, so don't worry! ”

Liu Zhang was stunned for a moment, and he really forgot that Xiliang still has two small waiting countries, of course, this can't be blamed on him, after all, this is Huaxia is not a small Fusang island country, Liang and Qin may be able to be called big countries above Fusang Island country, but on the land of China, saying that they are countries is really looking up to them, at best, they can only be regarded as counties.

But no matter how small these two countries are, but they are not wrong to be located in Cao Cao's back, Liu Zhang thought about it and thought that Huang Quan was right, Cao Cao could not send troops to attack himself when he did not solve the two small countries on his back, and when he destroyed the two small countries, he didn't know how much time it would take, how much money and food would be spent, and at that time Wei would have no spare strength to attack and put a big question mark.

Thinking about it this way, Liu Zhang's attitude changed from firm to hesitant, if he could, he really didn't want to make peace with Cao Cao, after all, Liu Zhang still knew very well that the soft condition for claiming that he sat on the dragon chair was to inherit the name of the Han dynasty, and to make peace with Cao Wei, who usurped the Han Dynasty, no matter what, it would hit Liu Zhang's prestige.

Liu Zhang's change in attitude made it impossible to conceal the following civil and military officials, who were all proficient, and the civil and military officials such as Fa Zheng and Li Yan, who were unwilling to fail, all spoke out in support of Huang Quan, which made Liu Zhang's preference to continue fighting more obvious.

The sudden strength of the main battle faction made the civil and military officials of the main and one faction powerless, so they could only sigh secretly in their hearts, and angrily reprimanded Huang Quan and others for misleading the country, but there was nothing else to do.

"Your Majesty, your Majesty's big thing is not good, General Yan Yan sent an urgent report, Cao Cao, the emperor of Wei, sent Zhang He to lead an army of 50,000 into the pass, and now the strength of the Wei army in Chang'an has reached 150,000!"

At this moment, all the people were like a thunderbolt in their heads, and the officials of the Huang Quandu main battle faction suddenly turned pale, of course, they were not afraid of the 150,000 army of the Wei army, but they knew very well that Liu Zhang's attitude that had already softened would inevitably change again.

And the lord and the officials of the faction were overjoyed, the thoughts in their hearts were the same as Huang Quan and others, and all the civil and military officials looked at Liu Zhang on the dragon chair above, and sure enough, Liu Zhang's face turned pale all of a sudden, and he almost immediately said loudly: "Quick, quickly recall General Yan Yan, let him return to the court quickly, and at the same time, send an envoy to Daliang to make peace!" ”

Liu Zhang was really completely frightened this time, 150,000 troops, what are you kidding, the soldiers and horses that his entire Han can go out to fight are almost 150,000, but his country's military strength is only equal to one state in Wei, how can this not make Liu Zhang panic, at this moment any ideas were thrown out by Liu Zhang, and there is only one left, that is, to make peace, if he doesn't talk about peace, he may really become the king of the country.
