Chapter 235 My Lord Wants to Marry the General's Sister
Although Liu Bei's wife, Mrs. Gan, was not frightened by Cao's army going south, Liu Bei crossed thousands of miles from Jiaozhou to Yizhou. Mrs. Gan's body was already worn down.
Not long after Liu Bei occupied Hanzhong, Mrs. Gan passed away. Liu Bei grieved for a long time and has not married again.
"Is this appropriate? I'm almost fifty years old." Liu Bei still wanted to be reserved.
"My lord, a real man cannot live without a wife, let alone the master of the lord's side?"
"Furthermore, in the face of the great cause of reviving the Han Dynasty, will my lord be willing to sacrifice his life?"
"If my lord agrees, I am willing to personally persuade Wu Yi to surrender!" Zhuge Liang said without stopping.
Liu Bei was not a pretentious person, and immediately ordered, "Then it's settled. I will personally lead 20,000 troops, bypass Fucheng, and attack Mianzhu. When the time comes, Kongming will enter the city to persuade Wu Yi to surrender."
"My lord is wise!"
"Send the order for Zhang Fei to come."
"promise!"
"Brother, I'm training soldiers? Why did you ask me to come over?" He arrived before anyone else arrived.
Looking at Zhang Fei who broke in, Liu Bei said helplessly, "Yide, how many times have I told you not to be so reckless? Why can't you listen?"
"Hey, hey, brother, I, Old Zhang, have such a temper, Gulu..." Zhang Fei sat down and took a sip of water, "But don't worry, brother, I will definitely win the battle when I go to the battlefield."
"That's all, I didn't tell you this when I asked you here. Tonight, Gu is going to quietly lead his troops south. You stay here. You can't attack the city, let alone let Liu Zhang's army cross."
"Brother, don't worry as I'm here!" While Zhang Fei was making the promise, he hammered his chest with his fist.
"Remember me, you must not drink alcohol, you must not abuse your soldiers, and you must not act recklessly." Liu Bei was still worried, and when he warned me, Gu Du told me.
"Brother, don't worry, I've remembered it, but why didn't you take me with you when you went south?"
Liu Bei rolled his eyes at him, "Maybe we can capture Chengdu when we go south this time. What should we do and what shouldn't be done then? How to appease the people, how to issue decrees, and how to stabilize people's hearts. Do you know how to do these?"
"Uh, brother, you better go ahead." Zhang Fei's head was pounding after hearing this.
On the first day of October, Liu Bei led his army to Mianzhu! Mianzhu had been under martial law for a long time. When Liu Bei arrived, the city gates were closed and the defenders on the city were ready.
"Lord, let Liang go." Zhuge Liang smiled at Liu Bei.
"Military advisor, be careful."
"Lord, don't worry."
After saying this, Zhuge Liang led a group of knights, holding black yak swords, and slowly approached the city wall.
"The envoy from Yicheng Tinghou, Zhuge Liang asks for an audience!"
Traditionally, when the two armies were fighting, the envoys would not be killed. When the defenders on the city saw it, they did not fire arrows, but immediately went to report Wu Yi.
Zhuge Liang was very patient, and he was not worried at all that Wu Yi would not meet him. Sure enough, the city gate opened after a while, and a group of soldiers stood in the doorway.
"drive!"
Wu Yi's residence in Mianzhu was not bad. Over the years, Wu Yi rarely returned to Chengdu and was always stationed in Mianzhu.
"Envoy Zhuge Liang pays homage to General Wu."
Sitting at the top was a bearded man with thick eyebrows and big eyes, but his eyes looked extremely deep!
"Please get up. Liu Bei and my Lord are at war. If you come to see me, just tell me what you have to say!"
Wu Yi's voice was very loud. Zhuge Liang smiled and looked around and said, "Can you ask the general to retreat to the left and right?"
"Hahaha..." Wu Yi laughed loudly, "I have been in Mianzhu for many years. If you have anything to say, sir, feel free to say it."
Having said this, Zhuge Liang stopped talking nonsense and said, "General, please submit to my lord!"
"Submit to Liu Bei? You only have 30,000 to 50,000 troops, so what qualifications do you have for me to submit to you?"
Zhuge Liang put away his smile and said seriously, "It has been twenty years since the general accompanied Liu Yan to Shu. But the general is not the marshal in charge of the army, and he is not relied upon by Liu Zhang. This is because Liu Zhang does not recognize talents.
.”
"My lord is a great hero who has dominated the world till now. Everyone knows that my lord is the hero of the world. If the general can take refuge in him, my lord will definitely reuse the general!"
Wu Yi sneered, "I will kill you and send your head to Chengdu. The lord will definitely use me again."
Zhuge Liang smiled nonchalantly and said, "If the general had such determination, he would not have entered the city with force."
"you……"
Wu Yi didn't say anything after the word "you". He stared at Zhuge Liang fiercely, waiting for his words.
"Although my lord only has 30,000 to 50,000 troops, Xichuan is already in my lord's pocket. If the general persists in his obsession, he will definitely be a prisoner in the future!"
"With the general's intelligence, do you still think that Liu Zhang can resist my lord? Our lord's army has already arrived outside the city. Does the general really want to die together?"
Wu Yi closed his eyes and didn't speak for a long time. Zhuge Liang just stood there and waited quietly. After a long time, Wu Yi opened his eyes and stared directly at Zhuge Liang, "What's the benefit of taking refuge with Uncle Liu Huang?"
Now it's better, even the title has changed. Zhuge Liang said with a smile, "I will make the general a rebel general. After my lord enters Chengdu and takes charge of Xichuan, he will marry the general's sister as his official wife!"
"hiss!"
Wu Yi suddenly remembered something. Back then, a fortune teller showed his family a fortune and said that his sister was a fortune teller. When he asked how expensive it was, the fortune teller pointed to the sky and replied: "It's so precious!"
He immediately killed the fortune teller and wanted to conceal the matter, but Liu Yan still knew it from somewhere. He sent someone to ask for his son Liu Hao's hand in marriage, but he couldn't refuse, so he had to marry Wu Ran to Liu Yan.
's son.
But there was also a trace of luck at that time. After all, Liu Yan was no different from the emperor in Yizhou. Who can say for sure what will happen in the future?
Unexpectedly, Liu Zhang was succeeded, and Liu Hao also died in the 13th year of Jian'an (208). At that time, Wu Yi knew that Liu Yan and his son were not that good.
But now, Liu Bei wants to marry his sister, right?
It is very possible! You must know that the situation in the world has become clear now. Liu Cong has occupied Jingchu and is about to destroy Jiangdong. He is almost as good as Cao Cao.
And if Xichuan belongs to Liu Bei, then...
Thinking of this, Wu Yi couldn't help but grin. If Liu Bei really has a flying dragon in the sky, then if his sister marries Liu Bei, won't the Wu family have chickens and dogs ascending to heaven?
Wu Yi stood up and walked towards Zhuge Liang in a few steps. He actually knelt down and knelt down and worshiped, "Wu Yi, the last general, is willing to follow Uncle Liu Huang!"
Zhuge Liang smiled and helped Wu Yi up, "General, please get up quickly. My lord has admired the general for a long time."
"The general has heard about the reputation of the emperor for more than a day. It will be a blessing for the general to be able to take refuge in a hero like the emperor!"
If I don't say that the Lord will marry your sister, will you join me? Haha, Zhuge Liang complained in his heart about such business exchanges.
"General, please make preparations in advance and open the city gates to let my lord's army enter the city!"
Wu Yi chuckled, "Don't worry, military advisor, the generals and soldiers here are all under the control of the general. The general's family members are also in the city, so there is no need to worry about anything else!"
"Please ask the military advisor to report back to the lord, and you can enter the city today!"
In the fifteenth year of Jian'an, on the first day of October, Liu Bei entered Mianzhu!
