Chapter 725: The Liu Bei Who Sees Death As Home?
Inside and outside Chang’an City, soldiers and ordinary people pricked up their ears, waiting for Liu Bian’s reply.
After all, this is related to the life and death of hundreds of thousands of people, and even the air is a little dignified at this moment.
Jia Xu, who was beside Liu Bian, also frowned and pondered: “Your Majesty, this Liu Bei is really courageous, and this trick has to be said to be the most beneficial to him today. 55
“If Chang’an City is really flooded, the mess left behind will have to be cleaned up by ourselves. It is even more difficult to predict whether we can catch Liu Bei. If we can, everything will be worth it. If we can’t, it will not be worth it.”
“Hundreds of thousands of ordinary people, just to resettle, need to spend a lot of money and food.
Jia Xu revealed the key point in one sentence.
Liu Bian didn’t see this layer, he smiled bitterly: “That’s why I admire Liu Bei Xinsheng, and he turned around, but he threw the problem to us, really cunning. 95
“However, if there are hundreds of thousands of people, if I really don’t care about it, the people in the world don’t have to drown me with saliva for 460 yuan?”
Jia Xu sighed: “Your Majesty, if this is the case, we can only promise Liu Bei.”
Liu Bian nodded slowly, let out a long sigh of relief, adjusted his mentality, and replied loudly: “I agree to your request, no matter how much sin you commit, it has nothing to do with these innocent people, I promise you here, When the people leave, they will never attack Chang’an City.”
“But after this, I will never show mercy, and I will never tolerate the life and death of your soldiers. 99
Liu Bian’s cold voice spread throughout Chang’an City.
All the people were smiling with excitement on their faces. On the other hand, the soldiers were all downcast. Liu Bian’s words seemed to be a sentence of death to them.
Liu Bei was naturally unwilling to be outdone, he laughed: “There is no need to scare people, since I have decided to be loyal to the big man, I have already put my own life and death aside, and the same is true for the soldiers under my command.”
“Even a hundred years later, when I go to Jiuquan, I am worthy of my ancestors. 99
Liu Bei’s voice was very provocative. After hearing the voice, many soldiers showed resolute expressions on their faces, as if they were putting their lives and death aside at this moment.
Liu Bian did not continue to speak. Facing a cheeky person like Liu Bei, words alone could not have any effect at all. Only when he really hurt him, would he change his tone.
“Liu Bei, listen carefully, I will give you two days to let all the people prepare their things and leave the city. I will not attack the city. After two days, the city of Chang’an will be submerged by the Wei River, and I will not tolerate it.
After Liu Bian finished speaking, he turned and left without stopping.
After Liu Bei saw Liu Bian leave, the shadow in his eyes reappeared.
“Xiaozhi, Liu Bian agreed as you expected, but what about our soldiers? They are all afraid in their hearts. If they cause a mutiny in the military, everything will be self-defeating.” Liu Bei asked with a frown.
Fazheng nodded: “My lord, you must come forward in this matter, only by making the soldiers believe that you will be in Chang’an City and by their side no matter what, will they dispel their concerns and be able to guard for you (cdbi) city.”5
“From today, the lord will live on the tower to give the soldiers confidence.”
Liu Bei paused, then nodded helplessly.
Although he is also very afraid of death in his heart, in this case, he has no second choice.
The two went down the city wall together and came to the school grounds of the military camp.
Nearly 100,000 soldiers stood under it. Among them, there were those who looked at death with determination, and of course, there were also those who were confused and fearful.
Liu Bei stepped up to the point of command, faced the soldiers, and said loudly: “Soldiers, you have heard what you said on the tower just now. For the sake of the Han Dynasty, Gu must do this, and must live and die together with Chang’an City.”
“The people can leave and escape the fire of war, but as soldiers, how can we retreat? How can we escape?”
“Behind us are millions of Yizhou people, and countless villagers and fathers are watching us, can we ignore them?
“You must have heard of what Liu Bian did in Jizhou and Youzhou. He was a man-eating tiger. How can we put our relatives in his mouth?”99
“We have no choice, there is no second way.”
“Today and tomorrow, the people of the whole city will withdraw from Chang’an City, but we can’t leave, we have to hold on until the last moment.”
“This is not for everyone to die and wait for the flood in vain. Gu has already investigated and made it clear that what Liu Bian did was just a bluff, and the hole he dug was not enough to drown the city of Chang’an.”
“Therefore, you don’t have to be afraid, don’t worry, if the flood really comes, and the city wall can’t resist it, I will lead you to retreat early.
“Someone will ask, why not retreat now?”
“Gu is very clear to tell you that it is even more dangerous for us to withdraw from Chang’an City now.”
“Because Liu Bian won’t let us go, and won’t let us leave with peace of mind.””
“From now on, Guhui will live in the tower every day, eat and live with you, and live and die together!!””
After Liu Bei said this, many soldiers present shouted loudly: “Long live the king of Shu! Long live the king of Shu!! 55
The sound is so loud that it reaches the sky!!.
