"I don't!"
Zhang Nan roared angrily and looked at Zhuge Liang with eyes full of hatred.
He asked himself that he had never offended Zhuge Liang, but he did not expect that Zhuge Liang would trick him like this!
"Lord, if it is really the general who did it, why did the general come back like this?"
Liu Bei's eyes lit up, and he finally understood what was wrong.
Zhang Nan is extremely embarrassed, just like a refugee!
"Zhang Nan, weren't you captured by Liu Zhang? How did you escape?"
"Lord, the last general..."
Just as Zhang Nan was about to explain, Zhuge Liang quickly interrupted him.
"Lord, don't listen to this traitor. He must have come back to win our trust and then cooperated with Liu Zhang inside and outside!"
"With this thief here, it may be difficult to save Jiangling!"
Zhang Nan was terrified. Even if he fell into Liu Zhang's hands, he was not so scared!
Why was Zhuge Liang so anxious to put him to death?
Is it because I am not a native of Jingzhou?
Or. . .
Suddenly, a terrible idea came to Zhang Nan's mind.
It is an indisputable fact that Xu Shu rebelled.
So as Xu Shu's best friend, who is Zhuge Liang?
hiss!
Zhang Nan secretly took a breath of cold air.
If this idea is true, then the entire Jingzhou is in danger of subversion.
"My lord, I have something to say to my lord alone!"
Zhang Nan saw another layer of light, and he understood that he had to do something.
Once this is true, as a whistleblower, the benefits will be unlimited!
It's a pity that Zhang Nan is still too young. How could Liu Bei agree to such an unreasonable request?
"Zhang Nan, the military advisor is like my right-hand man. If you have anything to say, just say it!"
Liu Bei not only firmly rejected Zhang Nan's request, but also showed obvious anger on his face.
joke!
How could Liu Bei offend the mastermind Zhuge Liang because of a little Zhang Nan?
"Zhang Nan, you can do it!"
"Did Liu Zhang send you to drive a wedge between my lord and me?"
Zhuge Liang also had anger in his eyes. Just based on Zhang Nan's words, he would not be allowed to stay!
"Lord, military advisor, please believe me, I am really not a spy!"
"In order to return to Jiangling and return to my lord, I rowed alone on the Yangtze River all night and ran all morning before entering Jiangling!"
Thinking of the hardships he had endured along the way, Zhang Nan had the urge to cry.
After going through all kinds of hardships, he came back to die!
Who can accept this ending?
It's a pity that Zhang Nan can only move himself, and Liu Bei can only feel strangely irritable.
"Stop talking nonsense and get to the point!"
"My lord, while the general was being held in Yiling, he accidentally learned a secret."
"This matter is of great importance. It is related to the reason for the defeat in the Battle of Xiaoting, and it is also related to the life and death of the lord's foundation!"
"In order to prevent Liu Zhang from succeeding, the general racked his brains and thought of a way to escape successfully."
Liu Bei's attitude did not change at all after hearing this, but his anger became more and more serious.
"Zhang Nan, I don't have time to listen to your nonsense."
"If you don't mention the important point, you don't have to say it anymore!"
Zhang Nan was devastated and never expected that Liu Bei would do this to him.
If I had known this, I might as well have surrendered Liu Zhang directly!
"My lord, the reason why Xiaoting was defeated this time was indeed because someone leaked the secret, but it was not the last general!"
"Do you know who it is?"
Zhuge Liang asked quickly, not expecting that this was what Zhang Nan was going to say.
Liu Bei became nervous, and his eyes towards Zhuge Liang began to look a little strange.
Why did Zhang Nan send Zhuge Liang away when he reported this?
Liu Bei didn't dare to think wildly. He wanted to get the answer from Zhang Nan as soon as possible.
"Say it!"
"My lord, it's Xu Shu!"
As soon as Zhang Nan finished speaking, Zhuge Liang immediately laughed disdainfully.
"Hahaha!"
"Zhang Nan, even if you want to frame me, you have to find a suitable person, right?"
"Xu Shu? Do you know who Xu Shu is? He is the commander-in-chief of Jiangbei Nanjun!"
"If he is Liu Zhang's spy, Jiangling City now belongs to Liu Zhang!"
Liu Bei nodded, deeply agreeing with Zhuge Liang's words.
Xu Shu is Liu Zhang’s spy. This is definitely a joke!
Without Xu Shu, how could Liu Bei be where he is today?
Xu Shu defeated Cai Mao not long ago and allowed Liu Bei to occupy Nanjun.
Then he led his army to resist Liu Zhang, preventing Liu Zhang from advancing even an inch.
How could such a person be a spy?
If Xu Shu is a spy, he has ten thousand ways to give Nanjun to Liu Zhang.
"Zhang Nan, if you don't have a suitable reason, you will be beheaded just for slandering Xu Shu!"
Zhang Nan had long expected this outcome, but fortunately he had a countermeasure.
"Lord, I dare to swear to God on the life of my whole family!"
"If I hadn't heard the conversation between Liu Zhang and Xu Shu with my own ears, my whole family would have died badly!"
After Zhang Nan finished speaking, he looked at Zhuge Liang again, his eyes full of apology.
"Military advisor, I wasn't targeting you just now. The general knew about Xu Shu's relationship with you, so he didn't want to tell you directly."
Zhuge Liang sneered, not trusting what Zhang Nan said at all.
"Zhang Nan, don't say that I won't give you a chance."
"Explain to my military advisor why Xu Shu didn't surrender directly to Liu Zhang?"
Still the simplest question, why did Xu Shu go to so much trouble?
Zhang Nan nodded slightly, and then expressed his thoughts.
"My lord, military advisor, this is just my personal guess. I don't know whether it is accurate or not."
"There should be people around Xu Shu who are absolutely loyal to the lord, such as General Zhang Fei, General Fu Kuang, General Liao Hua and me."
"Although Xu Shu is the commander-in-chief, if he openly surrenders to Liu Zhang, he will definitely be rebelled against!"
"Furthermore, Xu Shu wants to help Liu Zhang completely defeat the lord, so he will definitely target the lord's main force in order to defeat him once and for all!"
Perhaps what Zhang Nan said made sense to some extent, but it was not enough to completely convince Liu Bei.
"Zhang Nan, let me tell you, the Jiangnan army did not engage in a head-on confrontation with Liu Zhang this time."
"So your inference is wrong."
"Do you have anything else to say?"
Zhang Nan nodded repeatedly, as if this sentence was an ultimatum!
"My lord, when Xu Shu commanded the army, he mobilized 500,000 stones of grain and grass from Nanjun to Huya, and then stored them in Yiling, Yidao and Huya Mountain."
"In order to escape, the general had no choice but to offer Liu Zhang the location of the food and grass in Huya Mountain."
"In the end, Liu Zhang faced 200,000 stones of food and grass, but nothing happened!"
"The general estimates that Liu Zhang has already transported the grain and grass back."
"If someone hadn't leaked the secret in advance, how could Liu Zhang know such a confidential matter?"
Liu Bei shook his head slightly, obviously still not convinced.
"Zhang Nan, this reason is too far-fetched."
"Perhaps others have informed Liu Zhang, or perhaps Liu Zhang discovered it accidentally."
At this time, Zhuge Liang also became impatient.
"Lord, it seems Zhang Nan has no new tricks."
"Why don't we kill him together tomorrow?"
When Zhang Nan heard this, he immediately became anxious and began to struggle violently.
"Lord! Liu Zhang is planning to rescue Xu Shu's mother!"
