[PS: This is another 3,400-word chapter. 】
If the anger of the Emperor's Uncle Party was directed at the author before, then this time all the anger of the Emperor's Uncle Party was directed at the Emperor's Uncle.
"idiot!"
"waste!"
"Why did I become a fan of such an idiot like you!"
"Let's go and join the Prime Minister. You deserve it, you can't compete in the world!" Comments like this are endless in the group, and with the addition of more than 500 new people, the rate of refresh in the group is even faster.
And because almost all the readers who entered the trap this time saw the section of "Three Visits to the Thatched Cottage" in one go, these readers are basically loyal to the Emperor's Uncle Party + Zhuge Party, so when they saw that the Emperor's Uncle was actually opened by someone, In the case of Xiangyang City Gate, they directly gave up on Xiangyang City, and the explosion was even worse than those of old readers.
After all, the old readers have gone through many hardships and have some resistance to such plot changes, but the new readers have no resistance at all, and among the readers who came in this time, there are still some novice readers who have finished reading The Romance of the Three Kingdoms. , they just expected to see Uncle Liu Huang pretending to survive all the way, but now they saw this, the explosion was far beyond imagination.
But at this time, Nie Feng no longer had the fear of seeing these scenes for the first time. First, he was used to it, but based on his understanding of the previous plot, the emperor's uncle would definitely turn the corner and even use this as an opportunity to win again.
After all, could it be Liu Huangshu who finally unified the Three Kingdoms?
If it is not true, then the Prime Minister can accept it. He recently read Romance of the Three Kingdoms for the third time and suddenly gained a lot of new insights into the character Cao Cao. His view of Cao Cao has also become much more complicated than the previous disgust.
As for Sun Quan's unification of the Three Kingdoms, Nie Feng thinks it is unlikely. After all, there was too little pen and ink given before, and judging from Jiangdong's current behavior, there is always a sense of petty ambition, and it does not seem like a force that can unify the world.
But if Sun Quan really unified the world, then as long as the process is reasonable enough and not a forced plot killing, Nie Feng can accept it.
But it turned out that Nie Feng had underestimated the fighting power of these new readers. Unlike the old readers who were generally older, there were quite a lot of young people in this group of readers.
They kept asking Yuanshi Tianwang to give a reasonable explanation for Liu Huangshu's obviously mentally retarded decision, and they also threatened the author that if he did not give a reasonable explanation, they would collectively post the white picture directly in the group, so that OO officials have come to block this group of readers who engage in pornography every day.
Don’t think this is a joke. There are countless official readership groups for novels in the world, but they were blocked just because their friends posted random white pictures. This is a killer move.
Seeing this, Nie Feng felt that it was not okay, so he chatted with Liu Xu privately and said, "You should explain why Liu Bei made such a decision. At least there must be a reasonable reason, otherwise this plot will be really hurtful." of!"
"And we have to use new chapters in the novel to answer it and update it as soon as possible, so that we can answer it for all readers!"
A few minutes later, Liu Xu replied, "But I have already updated the three chapters today, and it is impossible to update them again!"
"Then write and update at short notice, and update four chapters a day. This will have a better effect. If nothing else, just when readers see that you updated an extra chapter today, they will instantly be relieved of a lot of anger, and they will even feel that you Awesome!”
"..." Liu Xu made a series of omissions, "You know this very well, you can even think of such an idea."
"This is not what I thought of, it was taught by teachers from the liberal arts college. These are the experiences summed up by experienced people who know us!" Nie Feng explained.
Well, it can be seen from this that the education in the liberal arts college is still of some use.
Liu Xu said thank you and then started coding temporarily.
In fact, Liu Xu himself also felt a bit unhappy, because when he watched Romance of the Three Kingdoms for the first time, he also felt that Liu Bei in this plot was simply SB. At the same time, this was also a forced plot kill, just for the sake of performance. The plot that deliberately describes Liu Bei's benevolence and righteousness is not true history.
It wasn't until Liu Xu really started to study history that he discovered that in real history, Liu Bei did lead his people across the river, and he did cross Xiangyang without entering. These are historical facts and not a plot made up by Luo Guanzhong.
So why did Liu Bei make such a decision?
After repeatedly studying the historical materials at the time and the strategic postures of all parties, Liu Xu himself already had a set of his own ideas and understood why Liu Bei did what he did at that time.
He himself was freed from this, but he didn't expect that it would still bother readers in another world after traveling through time. Moreover, if he didn't write down the reason, then these readers would probably be tortured very uncomfortable by this problem.
After thinking about it again and again, Liu Xu started writing.
However, after the last attempt to change Xu Shu's fate failed, Liu Xu knew that he could no longer touch the main plot of the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, not even the side plots. So how to insert an explanation for Liu Bei's behavior this time into the original text? ?
Then we can only rely on Zhuge Liang's mouth.
So in the next chapter, Liu Xu first wrote half of the text, writing that Liu Bei and 300,000 soldiers and civilians were stationed overnight in Jingshan, Dangyang County. Suddenly a strong wind blew up. Liu Bei asked Jian Yong to tell fortunes. Jian Yong was shocked and said, "My lord, This is a sign of great misfortune, and it should be tonight, so the Lord can quickly abandon the people and leave."
Liu Bei decisively rejected this suggestion, and the group of troops still settled down. The above is the original text in the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, and what follows is the plot of the second half of the story that was added continuously.
Jian Yong felt uneasy, so he went to Zhuge Liang for advice. At this time, Zhuge Liang was preparing to pack. Jian Yong was shocked, thinking that Zhuge Liang was also going to run away. However, the other party shook his head and said that the lord was worried that Guan Yu, who had gone to Jiangxia, would not return, and the eldest son Liu Qi who was stationed there refused to send troops to rescue him. , so he asked Zhuge Liang to go to Jiangxia and asked Liu Qi to send troops. Zhuge Liang wanted to rush to Jiangxia urgently.
So Jian Yong told Zhuge Liang the hexagram he had just calculated, and then asked Zhuge Liang what bad omen there would be.
"Without him, Cao's soldiers must be chasing after them. Cao's army has many horses, especially the tiger and leopard cavalry. I predict that we will arrive at Jingshan tonight, and I'm afraid there will be a hard fight then!" Zhuge Liang said with a smile.
"In that case, come with me to see the lord quickly, and let the lord go to Jiangling first!" Jian Yong said anxiously.
"Xianhe, don't be anxious. It is useless to talk about this matter. My lord cares about the people and will not abandon them no matter what. No matter how much you say, it will not help. It is better to inform the second general and let him prepare his troops. Once Cao Jun kills Come, rescue your lord immediately and go directly to Hanjin Port. Reinforcements will be there to rescue you!" Kong Ming showed no fear on his face, and he obviously had a plan in mind.
Seeing Kong Ming's appearance, Jian Yong felt a little relieved, but he hesitated in his heart and looked sad. When Kong Ming saw this, he said, "Xian He has doubts in his heart, so he will leave immediately. The only person who can plan for great things beside the Lord is Xian He." . Don’t have any doubts in your mind at that time. If you have something unclear, I can answer it!”
"Well, since the military advisor said this, I have two questions in my mind. I just want the military advisor to answer my questions and clear up my doubts. I would be very grateful!"
"You can ask as many questions as you like, and I'll tell you everything you know!" Kong Ming said.
"Okay, first of all, 300,000 people are accompanying each other. Although they are sincere, people are connected to each other, cars are connected to cars, women are supporting the old, and the old are carrying the young. We can only travel more than ten miles a day. Let's leave Fancheng has been in force for seven days. If the soldiers rush to attack, they can reach Jiangling in three days. Why do we have to stop here!" Jian Yong said.
"Good. In the past, my lord and I had a conversation with my ministers in that thatched cottage. The weather is not as good as the right place, and the right place is not as good as the people. But Cao Cao has the right time, Sun Quan has the right place, and the only thing that can be gained by my lord is the harmony of people."
"Harmony is the foundation of our Lord!"
"What is harmony? Even these 300,000 people are like that!"
"Since ancient times, has there been a king without the common people? Since ancient times, has there ever been a person who won the common people but failed to win? In the past, King Li of Zhou defended the people's mouth better than Fangchuan. Three years later, the people resented him and drove him away. My great ancestor and the Three Qin Dynasties The people enacted three chapters to win the hearts and minds of the people of Qin. Once Chen Cang was released, the three Qin states rushed to join him. This is the benefit of the people's hearts!"
"My lord is a benevolent and righteous king in the world, and the people would rather abandon their homes and follow him. This is the best way in the world. There is no sage king like this in ancient times. People in Jingzhou, if your lord does not carry him and protect him, how can the name of benevolence and righteousness exist?" ?”
"Three hundred thousand people, when they gather together, they form a long dragon, and when they disperse, they form a cluster of stars. The four counties of Jingnan have a dangerous terrain, rich land, and a prosperous population. These three hundred thousand people will surely live in Jingnan, and every one of them will recite the Lord's benevolence and righteousness." Name, once the lord’s heavenly soldiers arrive in the future, it will be determined that the four counties in Jingnan will be famous!”
Jian Yong said again, "The people can bring it with them. However, yesterday the gate of Xiangyang City was opened by a righteous man. The Lord has many connections in the city. There are well-known soldiers and generals in Xiangyang who are good to us. We only need one soldier and horse to know. Why did my lord pass through Xiangyang but not enter it?"
"As far as Yong knows, the military advisor also advised the lord to go to Xiangyang. Why didn't he persuade the lord to go there? What trouble would it be for me to gossip in this dangerous place?"
"You only know one but not the other!" Kong Ming said with a smile, "You know that when Yuan Zhi was in Fancheng, he once offered advice to the Lord, saying that Fancheng could be abandoned and Jiangling taken, and he never mentioned the matter of Xiangyang."
"It seems like that!" Jian Yong recalled.
"Yuan Zhi is really a genius, he can know the interests and dangers of the world at a glance. Therefore, Xiangyang is by no means a place of birth, but a realm of death."
"The land of Xiangyang has been run by the Cai family for many years. Their gangs are spread all over the nine streets and alleys, and Cao's thieves have a huge army. Everyone in Xiangyang is as timid as a rat. Otherwise, why would Cao's surrender letter have been sent to Cao before Cao's soldiers arrived? Before the robbery?"
"Not to mention whether a single army can capture Xiangyang City. Even if we capture it, how can we clear out the Cai family's internal and external gang members and stabilize the hearts of the Xiangyang subjects within a few days? There are also 300,000 people who have entered, and they live in What house, what household do you eat in, what household do you run?”
"If my lord enters Xiangyang, there will be plots by Cai's gangsters inside, and there will be a conflict between the two peoples. Outside, Cao's army of thieves will arrive at ten minutes. By then, Xiangyang will appear to be strong, but it will only be a chicken. Cao's army can defeat it in one battle. I'm afraid we will all be prisoners of the subordinates!" Zhuge Liang shook his head and said, "That's why we must not stay in Xiangyang. Defending Xiangyang is not as good as guarding Fancheng. If everyone in Fancheng is united and the soldiers work hard, there is still a glimmer of hope, but in Xiangyang there will be no life. you."
Jian Yong was silent, his expression changed rapidly and he said, "Even so, why did the military advisor persuade the lord to go to Xiangyang in the first place?"
"I'm not talking to my lord, but to all of you!" Kong Ming said, "Xiangyang is close but Jiangling is far away. Xiangyang can be reached in a day after leaving Fancheng, but Jiangling takes only ten days. If Liang persuades the lord to go to Jiangling, people's hearts will They are all afraid and prefer to stay in Fancheng. This is a way to die. Liang can only pretend to go to Xiangyang, but the situation has changed, so he persuades the lord to go to Jiangling."
"I didn't expect my lord to be so wise. I would have known what we were thinking. No need to say it out loud. Now that we understand that Xiangyang is a place of death and Jiangling can survive, this is a glimmer of hope! Therefore, if a righteous man opens the door at this time, the lord will never enter Xiangyang, so That’s the truth.”
"This is the fate!" Jian Yong sighed in admiration and bowed to the ground. "I just found out today that the military advisor has a plan of ghosts and gods. It is our great fortune to have the military advisor here!"
"Xianhe is about to come. If there is no Constitution and An An to govern the internal affairs, how can I have the leisure to play the piano!" Zhuge Liang helped Jian Yong said, "However, the danger tonight is still greater than before. The Lord's safety is as great as a mountain. If Cao's soldiers are not there, It's good to be here, if Cao's troops arrive, you will definitely protect my lord!"
"I have calculated that as long as we survive tonight, the world's situation will be easy, and the tripartite tripod will be achieved!"
[I tried to write this paragraph in semi-classical Chinese of The Romance of the Three Kingdoms. It took me almost two hours to write in Braille. It was so difficult! Of course, this is written for everyone to read. Liu Xu wrote it in vernacular Chinese. After all, readers in that world still cannot understand classical Chinese.]
