Chapter 121: Liu Bei returns, and the duel between father and son officially begins!!

"The military advisor has ordered us to welcome the eldest son into the city!"

"The military advisor has ordered us to welcome the eldest son into the city!"

it's over,
it is finally over!
Gong'an City finally doesn't have to confront the eldest son anymore!
Zhuge Liang's order to open Kaesong and surrender quickly spread throughout Gong'an City.

In an instant,

There was jubilation in Gong'an City. The huge stone that had been weighing on the hearts of everyone in the city for the past two days was finally removed.

"It's down, it's finally down!"

"Good, good! There is hope for the public security and for Jingnan!"

"As long as the eldest son enters the city to take charge of the situation, why should we be afraid of Sun Cao's march south?"

"Military Advisor Zhuge finally figured it out. The person in front of us is the eldest son, not an outsider. What's the harm in opening the city?"

"Quick! Go and prepare to welcome the eldest son, and open the city gates!"

There were constant sounds of celebration and laughter throughout the city.

Only the Gong'an County Magistrate's residence,

A chill.

Inside the mansion, Madam Mi's eyes were filled with tears. "Brother! There are still more than 10,000 defenders in the city, and they are still able to fight...Are you really willing to hand over the lord's foundation to that little beast Liu Wu?"

Mrs. Mi was filled with resentment and resentment...

Over the years, he had been teaching Adou how to please Uncle Liu behind his back, and with great difficulty he made Adou the crown prince. He saw that the four counties in southern Jing would sooner or later belong to Adou.

But who knows...

Who knew that Liu Wu would come back to kill us again!
He actually took back everything that Adou had obtained. How could Mrs. Mi be willing to accept this?

"Alas~" Mi Zhu, who was standing in front of Madam Mi, sighed, "Women's views! Now the morale of the army and people in Gong'an City is completely gone, and everyone wants to surrender!"

"What's the use of more than 10,000 defenders?"

"Sister, the public security situation is hopeless, you must stop being confused! You should lead Adou to surrender quickly, and Liu Wu will not make things too difficult for you, otherwise..."

What would happen otherwise?
Mi Zhu didn't finish his words, but Mrs. Mi instantly understood what her brother meant, and her pretty face immediately lost all color...

Crunch! ~
The Gong'an city gate, which had been closed for a long time, suddenly trembled.

immediately,

The city gate burst open!

Tap tap tap~
A burst of dense and heavy footsteps came from the corridor inside the city.

In a moment,

A snow-white figure appeared outside the city. All the officials and generals in Gong'an City were dressed in white robes and white scarves on their heads.

The two figures leading the way, one big and one small, were none other than Madam Mi and A-dou.

Mrs. Mi was wearing a white dress and looked dazed.

Adou held a jade disk in his mouth and a seal in charge of the four counties in southern Jing hung around his neck. He held Mrs. Mi's hand dejectedly.

wow~
As Madam Mi and Adou knelt on the ground, all the officials and generals behind them followed suit and knelt in the dust.

The coalition scouts who came from afar to gather information stared blankly at what was happening before their eyes.
I was at a loss for a moment.

Mi Zhu took a deep breath, held the sword in both hands, and knelt forward to shout to them: "Please tell the eldest master..."

"Gongan City is willing to surrender!"

"We, the guilty subjects, respectfully invite the eldest prince to enter the city and take charge of the overall situation in Jingnan!!"

……

Allied Camp,

The Chinese military tent.

"The 20,000 Jingzhou navy soldiers have been disrupted and incorporated into the Xiling Army."

"All Jingzhou warships have been completely controlled by our army!"

"Five thousand elite police officers have been arranged."

"Sun Qian and other surrendered generals..."

In the big tent,
Except for the voice of a general who was reporting the surrender of the army, everything was quiet at the moment.

The Jiangdong generals who were participating in the discussion in the tent were already in turmoil...

Jingzhou's 20,000 naval forces,

Public Security has five thousand elite infantrymen.

Add to that the 5,000 soldiers who escaped from Gong'an last night, and there are more than 30,000 people...

That is,

Since Liu Wu led his troops across the river from Jiangling, he has captured more than 30,000 people in Gong'an City without firing a single arrow or starting a battle!

These people came to surrender to Liu Wu on their own initiative, so it is not an exaggeration to say that they were Liu Wu's former subordinates.

Adding the 15,000 men he brought to Xiling, Liu Wu's main force now already has 45,000 troops. In terms of military strength, he has already surpassed Jiangdong's 10,000 troops!
Thinking of this, Zhou Yu, Huang Gai, Taishi Ci and other generals were all in a trance...

Is this the strategy of winning over people’s hearts that Liu Wu mentioned?

Zhuge Liang was such a wise man, but before he even fought with Liu Wu, he had already suffered repeated defeats and heavy losses.

People only know that Liu Wu is unparalleled in bravery and braver than Lu Bu. Who would have thought that his scheming and planning are no less than that of Wulong!
This Liu Wu is really scary.

It is unclear whether it is a blessing or a curse for Jiangdong to form an alliance with such people...

Gulp! ~
Feng Chu, who was standing by, took a sip of wine with satisfaction: "Sun Gongyou is a senior officer under Liu Xuande. This time, he led 20,000 naval forces and 5,000 infantrymen to surrender to the lord. The soldiers guarding the city walls on Gong'an City must have seen it."

"Kong Ming must have also known this news..."

"As a result, the morale of the soldiers and soldiers in Gong'an City must have collapsed and their hearts and minds are scattered!"

"Now that there is no news about Liu Xuande, there is no one in Gong'an City who can take charge of the situation. We don't need to go to war. If the coalition forces confront the Gong'an outside the city for one day, the morale of the Gong'an people will drop by one point."

"It will only take a few days for the public security to be able to..."

Before Fengchu finished speaking,

Suddenly, a scout leader rushed into the tent: "My lord!"

"The public security officials, both high and low, surrender the city!"

The police have been demoted so soon?!
Wow! ~
In an instant,

The generals in the tent stood up suddenly, and the sound of armor plates colliding on their bodies was loud.

Everyone was stunned.

This is the public security force guarded by Zhuge Kongming himself!

This is the old nest that Liu Xuande has been running for a long time, and it gathers the essence of the four counties in southern Jing!
We thought there would be a fierce battle in Gongan City, but they surrendered without even starting a fight?!

Pang Tong stepped forward quickly and asked: "Has the news been confirmed?"

The scout leader said: "I have seen with my own eyes that all the officials and generals in Gong'an City are wearing white clothes and kneeling outside the city..."

"Liu Bei's son Adou, comes out to surrender with the jade in his mouth!"

"Mi Zhu, the left general's attendant, is standing at the foot of the city, holding a sword and kneeling down to invite the lord to enter the city and take charge of the overall situation in Jingnan!"

Dressed in white and mourning clothes, he surrendered with a jade disc in his mouth!
Gong'an City has truly surrendered to the Allied Forces.

In an instant,
Everyone in the tent subconsciously turned their heads and looked at Liu Wu who was sitting on the main seat.

They looked complicated...

At the beginning, Liu Xuande forced Liu Wu to flee to Gong'an because of the issue of establishing a crown prince.

But now,
This public security city,

These four counties in southern Jing will eventually belong to Liu Wu...

Under the watchful eyes of Jiangdong generals,
Liu Wu slowly stood up from behind the desk, his bright eyes as deep as an ancient well: "Arm the troops and leave the camp to join the public security!"

……

call! ~
Strong winds,

It roared from the river across the way...

Passing by the public security officials kneeling on the ground outside the city,
He brushed past Mrs. Mi, who was kneeling in front of everyone with a numb face, and Adou, who was hanging his head.
Blowing the withered grass on the city wall,
It also brushed past Zhuge Kongming who was standing on the top of the city wall.

Mr. Kong Ming held a long sword and was also dressed in white, but he did not follow Madam Mi, Adou and others out of the city to surrender. In Gong'an City, all the civil and military officials in the city were willing to surrender...

Only Zhuge Kongming cannot surrender!

Even more unwilling to surrender!

Zhuge Liang was in a trance, and the past events were like smoke, emerging in front of him...

When Kong Ming lived in seclusion in Longzhong, he made friends with Cui Zhouping of Boling, Xu Yuanzhi of Yingchuan, Meng Gongwei of Runan and others. They all got together and had a great time talking.

When the excitement was at its peak, Kong Ming pointed at everyone and said: "You all should strive to be excellent and pure, and you may be promoted to the position of county governor or provincial governor."

Xu Yuanzhi asked back: "What is Kongming's ambition?" Zhuge Liang smiled at that time, and his smile was so high-spirited: "Liang may be the same as Guan Zhong and Yue Yi!"

Guan Zhong assisted Duke Huan of Qi in uniting the nine states and eventually achieving hegemony.

Le Yi attacked Qi and captured more than seventy cities in a row, and his fame shook the world!

This is Zhuge Liang’s ambition and talent!
……

Shuijing Villa,

Zhuge Liang and Fengchu Pang Tong studied together under Mr. Shuijing, a disciple of Sima Hui.

He is proficient in military strategies, state governance and everything in between!

I know the general situation of the world and what the princes are thinking like seeing through fire!

When talking with classmates, I said that my talent and strategy were far superior to those of my peers, and everyone respected me.

My teacher Sima Hui once praised me in public, saying that I am [Jiang Ziya who made the Zhou Dynasty flourish for 800 years, and Zhang Zifang who made the Han Dynasty prosperous for 400 years! ]

Zhuge Liang was too humble to accept it.

The reason why Jiang Ziya is Jiang Ziya is because he met King Wen of Zhou!

The reason why Zhang Zifang is Zhang Zifang is because he met Emperor Gaozu of Han!

The lord that Zhuge Liang will assist in the future must be a wise ruler, so that his name Zhuge Wulong can shine through the ages in history!
……

On Wolonggang,

Emperor Liu Bei visited him three times at his cottage, and he made a plan for him to divide the world into three parts.

After arriving at Wolonggang,
He used the fire of Bowang and the water of Baihe River to frighten Cao's army.

He also allied with Sun Wu in the east, formed an alliance, helped Zhou Lang burn down the Red Cliff, and defeated Cao's 800,000-strong army!

He also took the opportunity to help his lord gain the four counties of southern Jing and establish himself in Jingxiang!

But now...

……

call! ~
The biting cold wind suddenly woke Zhuge Liang, who was lost in memories of the past.

Looking outside the city, Adou, who surrendered with the jade in his mouth,

Looking outside the city, I saw officials kneeling on the ground.

Zhuge Kongming was filled with bitterness...

But why have things come to this point now?
He suddenly remembered that when he had crossed the Yangtze River to debate with the scholars, Zhang Zhao had ridiculed him: "Are Guan Zhong and Yue Yi really like this?"

"Are Guan Zhong and Yue Yi really like this?" Zhuge Kongming whispered to himself on the top of the city wall.

bass! ~
The sword hums softly, and a pool of autumn water comes out of its sheath!
The shiny sword blade reflected Kong Ming's lonely face.

By now,

What Mr. Wolong...

What Guan Zhong and Yue Yi...

They have all become a laughing stock, all are just illusions!

My Lord, my Lord, it is Liang who is incompetent! It is Liang who betrayed your trust! This has caused the foundation of Jingnan to be lost in one day. Now that things have come to this, Liang has no choice but to die to repay the Lord's kindness...

In the fierce wind,
Zhuge Liang placed the cold sword blade on his neck.

"Ah~"

"Oh, great heaven, how can you be so unkind to me?" Zhuge Liang sighed sadly, closed his eyes, and was about to rub his neck with the sword in his hand...

suddenly,

A familiar voice suddenly sounded: "Military Advisor, don't do that!!"

This sound is...

Zhuge Liang's hand holding the sword trembled suddenly.

He opened his eyes hurriedly and looked outside the city!

Da da da! ~
Two figures rode their horses towards the city gate.

Bang! ~
The sharp blade in Zhuge Liang's hand fell to the ground, raising a cloud of dust.

There were two figures on horseback. Although they were ragged and in disarray, Zhuge Liang still recognized them!

That is,

That is! !
"My lord, my lord is back!" Zhuge Liang's voice was trembling.

He could hardly believe his eyes.

Is Liu Huangshu still alive?

Uncle Liu is still alive!!
Kong Ming stood there for a long while, hot tears falling from the corners of his eyes...

Jingnan is saved.
The police are saved.

Heaven will never destroy the sleeping dragon!
God will never abandon my lord!
God will not destroy the great man!!

……

"Military advisor, no!"

Outside the city of Gong'an, the civil and military officials who were kneeling on the ground suddenly heard a very familiar voice.

This sound seems to be...

Everyone suddenly looked up and gazed into the distance.

Two embarrassed figures were riding their horses towards them, and they would be in front of everyone in a moment.

Mrs. Mi, who had originally looked numb, suddenly had a look of surprise on her face: "Yes, it's the emperor's uncle! Emperor Liu is back!"

The Lord is back?!

The lord is still alive? ! !

boom! ~
In an instant,
The people kneeling on the ground felt a huge wave of turmoil in their hearts!

"The Lord is not dead!"

Everyone stood there in a daze, looking at a loss.

As long as the lord is alive, the situation in Jingnan and Gong'an will naturally stabilize, which is a good thing.

But the problem is,

Now, the Lord just happened to come back when they were asking Liu Wu for surrender, this...

Xilulu! ~
Liu Bei rode his horse closer and closer to the crowd. He looked at the military advisor on the top of the city wall who finally dropped the sword in his hand and couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

Looking ahead at Adou who is coming to surrender with the jade in his mouth,
Looking at Madam Mi and Mi Zhu who asked for surrender,
Looking at the civil and military officials who requested surrender,
Uncle Liu felt his anger rising up and he gnashed his teeth in hatred.

Kong Ming still knew to repay his master with his death.

Could it be that his wife, his own children, and these trusted old men only think about living a life of wealth and luxury?
“Father, father!!”

Adou recognized his father, spat out the jade disk in his mouth, and was about to go forward cheering.

But Liu Bei continued to ride on his horse.

He bent down from his horse, grabbed Adou and put him on the horse, and galloped towards Gong'an City. Only the angry shouts could be heard from the back: "Return to the city!"

"Get ready to meet the enemy!"

……

Wow~
The black mass of the coalition forces rushed to the outside of Gong'an City and saw white towels and robes scattered on the ground in front of them, as well as the exquisite white jade disk.

All the generals present had grim expressions on their faces.

Pang Tong's face was so gloomy that it looked like water could drip out of it: "What's going on? What's going on?"

What happened to the promise of surrendering with the jade in your hand?
Where are the civil and military officials who were supposed to kneel outside the city?

Is this all that's left now?
Pang Tong was very angry. How could the cooked duck suddenly fly away? ! !
"My lord, Mr. Fengchu..." the leading scout said cautiously, "Just before my lord left the camp, two riders came galloping over on horseback."

"We heard that Madam Mi called him the Emperor's uncle, and the Crown Prince Adou called him father. It seems...it seems that Liu Xuande has returned to Gong'an!"

Liu Bei is back?!

Wasn’t he abducted into Shu?

At that moment, everyone was stunned. This news really caught them off guard.

Pang Tong was stunned there.
not good!

I'm afraid something happened to the soldiers who took Liu Xuande hostage and brought him to Shu.

But this...

He subconsciously looked at Liu Wu: "But how is this possible?!"

……

　Thanks to bigchongzi1 for the reward, thank you!
