Three Kingdoms: Ancestors of the Han Dynasty

Chapter 24 Your Highness Wants to Retaliate?

Wu Ban had no choice but to face Sun Huan's chariot formation. The sky was getting late, and the last ray of the sun was swallowed by the earth. Wu Ban could only temporarily withdraw his troops and wait for the next day to attack again at dawn. Can Ben make this wish come true?

Liu Bei was walking in the camp, looking at the starry sky, he couldn't help but think of Cao Cao's poem "The stars are brilliant, if they come out of it", and he thought of Cao Cao. He hated Cao Cao and caused chaos in the Han Dynasty, and remembered the days when he was begging from east to west.

A burst of heart palpitations came to my heart again, and Liu Bei stroked his chest.Ever since he defeated Sun Huan at noon and besieged him, he felt uneasy, something he had never felt in the army for many years. If Cao Cao was by his side, he would laugh and say, "Mr. Xuande, I also felt the same way before the Battle of Chibi!"

At the beginning Cao Cao and Liu Bei cooked wine with green plums and talked about the heroes of the world, but they did not expect that these two heroes of the world were both defeated by Jingchu, and both were attacked by fire, which made people sigh for a while! ——
Under the summer night, the stars and the moon are bright and clear, the Ming River is in the sky, and the Han army camps in Luzhai, Zhuoxiang.

In Liu Chan's big tent, the atmosphere is pleasant at this time.

Liu Chan raised his glass to Chen Shi with a smile and said, "Zhong Fa, please drink this cup. Zhong Fa commanded the navy, and it took a lot of hard work to fight against Wu."

Chen Shi raised his eyebrows with joy, and quickly raised his glass in response: "Your Highness, His Majesty the Navy and General Wu Ban have worked even harder, and I really dare not do it!"

Hearing Chen Shi's answer, Liu Chan deliberately sighed, with a worried expression on his face, and didn't speak, only caring about the food on the table.

Seeing Liu Chan like this, Chen Shi thought that his words displeased His Majesty, so he tasted them carefully, thinking that the Wu class in his words displeased Liu Chan, so Chen Shi said to Liu Chan, "Your Highness, are you worried about Uncle Wu?"

Liu Chan shook his head and didn't speak. Chen Shi couldn't help being surprised and thought, "It's not because Wu Ban, a relative, is worried, but because of something."

Of course Liu Chan is not worried about Wu Ban. Although Empress Wu has a son, Liu Li, but he is too young to be a threat. The second brother Liu Yong is a concubine, and his mother is just a petty gentry, so there is no need to worry.

Chen Shi couldn't help looking at Dong Yun. Dong Yun's face was full of spring breeze today, and he chatted happily with Wang Ping at the table. Dong Yun seemed to be aware of Chen Shi's gaze, and raised his glass as a gesture. Chen Shi raised his glass in return. Dong Yun stepped forward and whispered, : "Your Highness, I am worried about His Majesty's military affairs. General Chen can relieve His Highness's worries. Don't tell Your Highness, it is my words."

Chen Shi heard that, although he didn't know exactly when His Highness was worried, but he could solve it by himself, he couldn't help smiling, and quickly cupped his hands to thank Chen Shi: "Thank you, Mr. Dong." Dong Yun cupped his hands in return with a smile, and returned to his seat.

Chen Shi thought it would be fine as long as it didn't involve the prince's affairs, and then he thought about his words, put down his wine glass, and said to Liu Chan, "Your Highness, are you worried about our army's war?"

Hearing this, Liu Chan pretended to be annoyed, put down his glass and said, "Chen Qing, how do you know that I am worried?"

Chen Shi thought to himself, His Highness is still young, with joy and anger on his face, not like His Majesty, Chen Shi said slowly: "Your Highness, you came to work in the army, and you looked worried again. I guess it is because of the progress of our army's war."

Liu Chan sighed: "Chen Qing knows me, I am worried about our army being attacked by Lu Xun fire. Under the fire, our army is safe!"

When Chen Shi heard Liu Chan's words, he couldn't help being shocked, and eagerly said, "Your Highness, can you tell Your Majesty!"

Liu Chan raised his glass and said calmly after drinking, "I have written to His Majesty, and His Majesty must know about it."

Surprised, Chen Shi clasped his hands and asked, "But, Your Majesty won't listen."

Liu Chan shook his head and said: "I am worried because Lu Xun took advantage of the situation and set fire to the forest. Our army's camp in the south of the Yangtze River was in chaos. .”

Chen Shi put down his wine glass, went out to the center, cupped his hands and said: "If the navy comes, I will stop it for Your Majesty and Your Highness, and go to General Huang Quan's troops."

Liu Chan shook his head again and said: "I know Chen Qing's heart, but the Wu army's navy is powerful, and our army's navy is hard to resist. When Gongheng crosses the river by boat, he must go back to the Wu army's obstruction, and it is easy to overturn the river."

Chen Shi looked anxious, and cupped his hands and said, "Although the Eastern Wu navy is hard to resist, our Han navy is not afraid. General Huang Quan crosses the river first, and the rest of the soldiers can only live or die."

Liu Chan squinted his eyes and said, "I have a plan to allow more than ten thousand general Huang Quan to cross the river safely. I need to borrow something from Chen Qing."

Chen Shi said proudly: "General Huang Quan can only let more than [-] people cross the river. Don't say anything, let me go through fire and water without hesitation."

Liu Chan looked at Chen Shi with a smile, and said, "Use the general's tiger talisman to send the sailor's material to sink in the bottom of the river, and we can temporarily put an end to the Wu army's navy."

After hearing this, Chen Shi's expression changed drastically and he said, "Your Highness, do you have your Majesty's edict?"

Liu Chan still smiled and said slowly: "No."

Chen Shi suddenly felt that Liu Chan's smile was so cold, Chen Shi looked around, Dong Yun had withdrawn from the tent, Wang Ping was standing on the right holding a ring-shoudao knife, Zhao Yun was holding a Han sword on the left, and he heard the soldiers outside the tent moving and bumping their armor The sound, a group of soldiers opened the curtain and entered.

Chen Shi looked flustered, and touched his saber involuntarily, and suddenly remembered that he had been unloaded by his servants before the banquet, Chen Shi swallowed his saliva and said slowly: "Your Highness, do you want to rebel?"

Liu Chan stopped hiding, got up and pressed his sword, and said directly: "Chen Qing, I don't want to hurt your life, just take out the tiger amulet. If Lu Xun's army does not attack, I will personally plead guilty to your majesty. If Lu Xun's army really attacks in the near future, If you are prepared in advance, Gongheng's troops will be safe and sound, and Chen Qing will be needed to go into battle in person. Would you like to?"

Chen Shi smiled wryly and said: "What Your Highness said is very true. Shi is willing to listen to His Highness's orders. I only hope that Your Highness must see Lu Xun's army attack before sinking the ship. It is not easy for our Han Navy to accumulate." After finishing speaking, Chen Shi took off the tiger charm on his waist, Hand over to Liu Chan.

Liu Chan was also polite, took the tiger talisman for inspection, and handed it to Zhao Yu for inspection, and ordered his servant Liu Bing to summon Ma Dai.

Ma Dai opened the curtain and entered, only to see Chen Shi drinking with a depressed face, Zhao Yun holding a tiger talisman to check, Liu Chan greeted him with a smile.

Seeing Ma Dai entering the account, Liu Chan walked up to Ma Dai and asked, "I want to send Bo Zhan to Shuizhai, and hand over the Tiger Talisman to Mr. Ji Ran?"

Seeing the strange atmosphere in the camp, Ma Dai couldn't help but want to clap his hands and reply: "Your Highness, Dai will not disgrace his life and hand over the tiger talisman to Mr. Ji Ran with his own hands. It's just General Chen?"

Liu Chan said with a smile: "Chen Qing, I'm too strong to drink, just go."

After Ma Dai finished speaking, he suddenly realized that he had asked the wrong question, so he quickly lowered his head, raised his hands high and said, "Please give me a talisman, Dai Xingye set off and rushed to the water village."

Liu Chan took the tiger talisman, and saw Zhao Yun nod his head to indicate 'the tiger talisman is fine', Liu Chan handed it to Ma Dai and said kindly, "Bo Zhan, be careful on the road."

Ma Dai bowed his hands and promised, and then left the camp. Liu Chan signaled Liu Bing to imprison Chen Shi in a small tent next to the big tent, and he didn't need to go out, and he was not allowed to visit.
