"The author is such a rubbish, how could he write such a plot!" Some readers cursed in the group.
"Damn, the author has updated the fourth chapter, the author has updated the fourth chapter!!"
"What? Long live the author, the author is amazing!" The reader immediately changed his words, and then the group immediately became quiet, and everyone ran to read the latest chapter.
A few minutes later, someone in the group asked again, "So there is such a reason not to enter Xiangyang, I didn't even think of it!"
Sure enough, the effect of this chapter was reflected, and the noisy voices suddenly decreased a lot. However, some readers questioned, "Is this statement reasonable? Could it be that the author made it up temporarily to appease us?"
"No, the author is right. That's the truth. If I were Liu Bei, I would never enter Xiangyang City!" Xiuyan appeared at this time. "And we just need to put it another way and put ourselves in his shoes. I can understand the reason.”
"Suppose you are being chased by a reflected creature. There are two places in front of you where you can hide. One is closer, but the people in power are your enemies. The other is farther away, but the people in power are your own people."
"Then are you willing to run closer to fight your enemies to the death, and then face the attack of the reflected creatures? Or run further away and directly enter an absolutely safe stronghold?"
Xiuyan's words instantly left everyone speechless. After that, no one said anything about Xiangyang. Instead, they begged Xiuyan to continue analyzing the next plot development!
"Actually, Zhuge Liang made it very clear. It depends on whether they can safely retreat to Jiangling this time!" Xiuyan analyzed, "Although I don't know the city map and terrain in the novel, I can roughly guess based on the information that Jiangling is Both Jiangxia and Jiangling are on the banks of the Yangtze River, among which Jiangling is close to the four counties of Jingnan, while Jiangxia is close to Sun Quan."
"If the emperor can successfully retreat, while regaining the territory of the four counties in Jingnan, he will send troops to join forces with Sun Quan. As long as Sun Quan is willing to resist Cao Cao, then the two sides will have a battle around the Yangtze River, and ultimately determine the ownership of the entire Three Kingdoms world. right."
"Originally, I thought Liu Bei and Sun Quan had the upper hand in this decisive battle because Cao Cao was from the north, and the novel clearly stated that they were not used to water warfare. But there was a premise, that is, the emperor's uncle had to master all the military forces in Jingzhou in advance. Strength. But the reality is that Cao Cao easily captured Jingzhou and controlled Jingzhou's huge navy. In this way, Cao Cao no longer had the disadvantage of the navy. This battle is hard to say. In theory, Cao Cao's The chance of winning is even greater, more than 80%!" Xiuyan analyzed.
"So high!" The group of friends felt very uncomfortable.
"Come on, I think you should first consider whether Uncle Liu Huang can survive tonight!" The Prime Minister's Party in the group suddenly appeared again and said sarcastically.
After Zhuge Liang came down from the mountain, the Prime Minister Party experienced the worst nightmare in history. The Prime Minister, who had been invincible in all battles in the past, actually ate turtles from Zhuge Liang's hands twice in one breath, and lost 200,000 people. This made the Prime Minister's party lose the confidence to speak in the group.
But now, the Prime Minister's army moved south, and the entire Jingzhou surrendered directly. Uncle Liu Huang, who had won the battle, had to give up his territory and run away. This made the Prime Minister's party feel proud and elated again, and they became divided again.
"Have you noticed that this rubbish author especially likes to use fortune-telling to reveal spoilers? If the hexagram is auspicious, he will definitely win, and if the hexagram is unlucky, he will be unlucky. Jian Yong directly calculated a bad omen, and Zhuge Liang also said My Prime Minister's army will come over tonight. Let's see if Uncle Liu Huang can survive tonight, hahahahaha!" Seeing the rampage of the Prime Minister's Party in the group, the Emperor's Uncle Party once again broke out in fighting power, and then the entire group Inside, the emperor's uncle's party and the prime minister's party spent a peaceful and beautiful day amidst the love and killing of each other.
Then, with everyone's high expectations, new updated content was obtained.
As a result, the first chapter of this update directly gave the emperor's uncle's party a critical blow. Just like the prime minister's party complained, in the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, fortune-telling seems to have never failed.
Jian Yong's hexagram and Zhuge Liang's prediction were very accurate. That night, Cao Cao's vanguard Tiger and Leopard Cavalry came over and killed him. While Liu Bei ordered the people to go first, he led his elite soldiers to block Cao's army at the foot of Jingshan Mountain and fought to the death. Without retreating, if Zhang Fei hadn't been reminded by Jian Yong and led his troops to support in time, Liu Bei would have been heroic.
In the end, Liu Bei passed Changban Slope in embarrassment under the protection of Zhang Fei.
In addition to describing Liu Bei's tragic defeat, this chapter also focuses on describing the tragic situation of the people.
After Liu Bei's 2,000 soldiers failed to stop Cao Cao's pursuit, these soldiers rushed into the people like crazy people. It was actually good to rob QJ, but what was even worse was to kill the people for fun.
These are contents not described in the original work, but many atrocities committed by Cao's soldiers were recorded in other historical documents, and Liu Xu added them one by one.
However, it was precisely because of these common people that they blocked the pursuit of the pursuers, allowing Liu Bei to luckily escape Changbanpo along the way.
At the same time, it was also pointed out that this was not Cao Cao's original intention, but it was indeed a portrayal of the entire era. Except for Liu Bei's soldiers, no army could do without killing and robbing the people. This is why Uncle Liu was able to have 300,000 The fundamental reason why people follow each other is also the nightmare that war brings to mankind. War is by no means a heroic epic.
In the end, Liu Bei, who escaped Changbanpo, was also very miserable, losing almost all his family wealth.
There are only more than a hundred soldiers following him. Even if all the people are included, there are only more than a thousand people. The only generals squatting beside him are Zhang Fei, Mi Zhu, Mi Fang, Jian Yong, Zhao Yun, etc., and even The whereabouts of Liu Bei's two wives and only son are unknown, and they almost certainly fell into the hands of Cao Jun.
After reading the first chapter, many readers simply fell silent. In fact, what Liu Xu wrote in this chapter had no literary talent at all, and was all straightforward.
But it is precisely because of this that when readers see so many lives dying in the hands of human beings in such a straightforward manner, their hearts are still hit hard.
"Can human beings really kill each other like this? Shouldn't human beings always be united and guard our homeland together?" A reader said in confusion. He did not quite understand why the army would massacre people so brutally.
"That's because we have a reflection of the world. If we don't unite, the reflection will kill us all!" Xiuyan said. "Actually, the main reason that attracted me to read this novel is that I really want to know what would happen if human beings did not exist without us." How will the world develop if there is a consistent threat?"
"Although I am unwilling to admit that the world in the Romance of the Three Kingdoms will be a human world without foreign enemies, looking at this analysis, I have to admit that this may be the most realistic portrayal of the world."
"Aren't there many novels that describe this kind of world without a reflection of the world?" A reader asked in confusion.
"But the world in those novels is not real. They are too gentle and too taken for granted. They cannot withstand scrutiny. Only this world of the Three Kingdoms makes me feel more real than ever before!"
"These days, I have shared this novel with my colleagues. Although most of them have no time to read it, there are two or three colleagues who have read The Romance of the Three Kingdoms on my strong recommendation. Then we jointly applied. A super-intelligent computer input the world settings in the Romance of the Three Kingdoms and let the AI perform the deduction. The result..." Xiu Yan's words suddenly stopped at this point. He probably realized that he had said something that could not be said. He didn't pass it. He retracted those words within a few seconds, but everyone's mood became less beautiful.
"I don't want to know anything else. I just want to know how my Zilong is doing. It's impossible for him to really surrender to Cao Cao!" A few Zilong Party members in the group asked anxiously.
Because Liu Xu's chapter was very special, the last paragraph of this chapter was when Mi Fang came back to report that Zhao Yun had surrendered to Cao Cao, which made everyone in Zilong's party very anxious and uncomfortable.
But today, the rubbish author did not update three chapters in one go. Instead, he updated the first chapter and then said he would have to wait. This made the Zilong Party members very uncomfortable.
