The three Liu Bei brothers could not escape death.
For Liu Zhang, keeping the lives of the three people was of no use.
But Zhuge Liang is different. The meaning of his life is far greater than death.
Today is the thirteenth year of Jian'an, 208 AD.
Historically, Zhuge Liang at this time was just a fledgling.
A bit more popular, just entering society.
The future potential is huge!
Putting aside the ability to command troops in combat for the time being, in terms of the ability to manage internal affairs alone, I am afraid no one can match him.
To this day, Liu Zhang relied on his strength to defeat Zhuge Liang head-on.
But he did not look down on Zhuge Liang because of this, let alone despise him.
Industry specializing in surgery.
Historically, Zhuge Liang came out this year and has been engaged in foreign affairs and domestic affairs.
Never participated in the military.
Zhuge Liang's ability to command troops has always been considered to have been honed from his conquest of the Southern Barbarians Meng Huo.
Therefore, from the age of twenty to twenty-eight, Zhuge Liang was repeatedly defeated by Liu Zhang.
There's nothing surprising about it.
At this time, Zhuge Liang was not good at military ability.
Marching and fighting, planning before the battle, everything is the result of Liu Bei's coercion.
Therefore, Liu Bei's death is not a pity.
Zhuge Liang is of great use!
Liu Zhang firmly believed that under his command, Zhuge Liang would be more dazzling than ever before!
Of course, it is extremely difficult for a man like Zhuge Liang, who has devoted himself to death, to change his ways.
It is no exaggeration to say that it is as difficult as climbing to heaven!
Based on this idea, Liu Zhang wanted to use harsh words to anger Zhuge Liang.
"If I had known you were so cowardly, I shouldn't have wasted my time going to Taishan County in the first place!"
After cursing angrily, Zhuge Liang was still blind and unresponsive.
Liu Zhang stepped forward and poked Zhuge Liang's forehead with a finger.
"I am so blind that I have taken a fancy to you, a coward!"
Unfortunately, Zhuge Liang still didn't respond.
It's like a pig that has been electrocuted. It doesn't matter how hot it is with boiling water.
"Somebody come!"
Liu Zhang gave an order, and the soldiers on both sides stepped forward together.
The sharp blade is unsheathed, ensuring that the person executed by Liu Zhang can be killed immediately.
"King Qin, calm down!"
Pang Tong was shocked and quickly stepped forward to hold Liu Zhang.
"King Qin, Kong Ming was just confused for a moment, and his crime will not lead to death!"
Liu Zhang pushed Pang Tong away.
"Immortal? Look at how useless he is, what's the use of keeping him!"
"Far worse than his brother Zhuge Jin!"
When Zhuge Jin was mentioned, the corners of Zhuge Liang's eyes twitched slightly.
But still couldn't wake him up.
"King Qin!"
Pang Tong knelt on the ground and hugged Liu Zhang's thigh.
"King Qin, Kong Ming and I have been classmates for many years, and we have a deep friendship! Please, King Qin, spare my life for my sake!"
Liu Zhang frowned and waved his hand gently.
The soldiers put away their swords and retreated to both sides.
"Thank you so much, King Qin!"
Pang Tong was about to kowtow to express gratitude, but Liu Zhang pulled him up.
"Hey, Shiyuan, you should get up first."
After Pang Tong stood up, Zhuge Liang finally responded.
"Shiyuan, why did you save me? Why don't you just kill me to avenge the arrows that ambush you in the past..."
"Kong Ming, do you really want to die?"
Pang Tong did not mention the past, but changed the topic back to the present.
Zhuge Liang admitted it, but did not deny it, but looked desperate.
"Hey, now that it's over, what's the point of my life?"
"Yu Gong, I'm sorry for Liu Bei, Yu privately, I'm sorry for the King of Qin."
"I, Zhuge Liang...have no face to live in this world!"
As he spoke, two lines of tears flowed from his eyes.
"Kong Ming, you are confused!"
Pang Tong sighed repeatedly.
"Let me ask you, what is Liu Bei?"
"he..."
One sentence instantly left Zhuge Liang speechless.
Yes, what is Liu Bei?
Are they members of the Han clan?
The emperor does not recognize it, the court does not recognize it, and thousands of people in the world do not recognize it!
Except for Liu Bei himself and his two sworn brothers, who from the bottom of their hearts agrees with Liu Bei's identity as a Han clan clan member?
Even many civil and military officials in Jingzhou did not recognize him and secretly slandered him in private.
Even Zhuge Liang was helpless about this.
If the name is not correct, the words will not be correct.
If you are not recognized by the emperor, you are a traitor.
Even though Zhuge Liang was covered in mouths, he couldn't defend Liu Bei in the slightest.
"Kong Ming, you are a smart man. I am not flattering you, your intelligence is rare in the world!"
As he spoke, Pang Tong winked at Liu Zhang frequently.
Liu Zhang understood and nodded in agreement.
"Yes, I agree with this very much! Just the name of Wolong is already the name of Ao Gu Shuo Jin!"
"Liang... I can't deserve such praise from King Qin and Shi Yuan..."
Zhuge Liang's face was slightly red, a little shy and a little proud.
As a defeated general, he was treated like this.
Even Zhuge Liang would inevitably feel secretly happy.
"No! Kong Ming, you did it!"
Seeing that things were turning around, Pang Tong immediately stepped forward and grabbed Zhuge Liang's arm.
"Just imagine, if I assist the big-eared thief and you assist the King of Qin, what will happen?"
"this..."
Zhuge Liang opened his eyes slightly, and his thoughts suddenly became active.
Liu Bei's plate was too small.
When Zhuge Liang first joined, he didn't even have any territory.
How much effort did it take to capture the five counties of Jingzhou?
When Pang Tong joined Liu Zhang's command, Yizhou had been completely unified and was about to leave Hanzhong in the north.
Zhuge Liang was confident that if he switched positions with Pang Tong, he would definitely not be worse than Pang Tong.
But after thinking about it again, I felt depressed again.
There is no if in this world.
Everything was Zhuge Liang's own choice, how could he blame others?
"Shiyuan, it doesn't make any sense to say this now."
"No, it makes sense, it makes perfect sense!"
Pang Tong waved his hands repeatedly, his eyes full of sincerity.
"Kong Ming, if both the Crouching Dragon and the Phoenix are born together, the world will be at peace. Why do the Crouching Dragon and the Phoenix have to compete to determine the winner?"
"Having one of the two can bring peace to the world. What if you can get both? Have you ever thought about it?"
Zhuge Liang trembled slightly, and his breathing became a little rapid.
One can bring peace to the world, and if two complement each other, wouldn't they be invincible?
"Kong Ming, I know your strengths, and you also know mine."
"If I lead the troops in battle, and you stabilize the rear and provide me with food and fodder, who in the world can be defeated? Only the two of us united can truly dominate the world!"
"When Mr. Sima Hui named you and me Wolong and Fengchu, did he want us to fight to the death?"
Zhuge Liang was completely stunned, and at the same time, the desire in his heart also burst out.
Wouldn't it be easy for the Crouching Dragon and the Phoenix to join forces and become famous in history?
"Shiyuan, I understand your good intentions, but Liang doesn't want to be the villain!"
Pang Tong was furious and slapped Zhuge Liang hard.
"You are confused!"
