Chapter 599 God's Plan: The Empty City Plan!

Almost all the audience members had a wry smile.

It was as if they knew that all this was about to happen, but they had no way to stop it.

The wheel of history rolled forward. No matter how heroic a person was, he was like a grain of sand under the torrent of history. Although I don’t know how much exaggeration there is in the story of "Romance of the Three Kingdoms", if there were no works like "Romance of the Three Kingdoms", how many people in Xiazhou would remember Zhuge Liang, Zhao Yun, and the once brilliant history of Xiazhou?

You know, the reason why everyone feels that the autumn wind is bleak now is because the old thief wrote the story of the romance from Liu Bei’s perspective, which is seven parts true and three parts false.

The Three Kingdoms rained heavily, and the people wanted to die.

In the chaotic times at the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, warlords from all walks of life appeared one after another, and performed their own legends on this ruined land. The princes of the world occupied a continent and attacked each other, and tens of thousands of people fought each other at any time.

Familiar characters left one after another, and the actors who participated in "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" did not buy hot searches, but just released their farewell to their roles at the moment of going offline.

Whether it is the actors who played Liu Bei, Guan Yu, Zhang Fei, or Cao Cao, or Hua Tuo, who did not have many roles, they all felt the life of these historical characters in this play.

When Liu Bei and Cao Cao died, almost all the audience locked their eyes on Zhuge Liang.

"Everyone, think positively. After Liu Bei, Guan Yu, and Zhang Fei died, Zhuge Liang had more power. Before, because Liu Bei had too much say, Zhuge Liang could not fully display his talents. Now..."

"As long as Zhuge Liang is alive, Shu will not decline!"

"I guess so. From this point of view, the decline of Shu will be after Zhuge Liang's death. I just don't know how Zhuge Liang died."

"The prime minister is not young anymore..."

...

The audience did not lose their enthusiasm for watching the drama because of the departure of these familiar characters. After all, every period of time has its own highlights. After Liu Bei's death, Cao Pi followed Sima Yi's plan and divided his troops into five routes, with a total of 500,000 troops, to attack Western Shu from all sides.

"Sima?"

Seeing this familiar surname, many viewers were enlightened and finally looked at the Sima family carefully.

You know, in the history textbooks of Xiazhou, Sima Yan of the Sima family abolished Cao Huan as the King of Chenliu, proclaimed himself Emperor Wu of Jin, established the Western Jin Dynasty, and Wei was destroyed, becoming the real winner of the Three Kingdoms period.

And this Sima Yi, it must be said, is really a character!

He is extremely talented, and is good at hiding his shortcomings, but he can be cruel and ruthless.

"No wonder he can pick the last peach..."

Speaking of the ending of Cao's five-way attack on Shu, it was naturally a failure.

Shu and Wu reconciled, and Cao Pi could not find an opportunity to take advantage of, so he had to retreat.

And not long after, Yong Kai, the prefect of Jianning in Shu, joined forces with Meng Huo, the King of the South, to raise an army of 100,000 to rebel. After full preparation, Zhuge Liang personally led the army to cross the Lu River to the south!

In this battle, it can be said that the audience in Jiuzhou had more confidence than Zhuge Liang!

After all, Zhuge Liang has the right to speak in the current Shu Kingdom. As expected, after Zhuge Liang's army arrived in Nanzhong, they won several battles. The three armies were connected and ready to fight Meng Huo.

Zhuge Liang heard that Meng Huo was convinced by the locals. After thinking about it, he wanted to force Meng Huo to surrender by capturing him alive, so as to win the hearts of the people in Nanzhong.

In May, the army crossed the Lushui River and fought with Meng Huo's army. This was the classic "Seven Captures of Meng Huo" plot in the previous life, which was almost unknown in this world!

The first time, Zhuge Liang set up an ambush, and Meng Huo entered Zhuge Liang's ambush and was captured alive by Zhuge Liang.

But Meng Huo was dissatisfied and felt that it was his carelessness, not Zhuge Liang's ability. At this time, Zhuge Liang actually let Meng Huo go directly!

"Oh my god!"

"The Prime Minister is so skilled and bold!"

"Zhuge Liang is clearly trying to subdue Meng Huo."

"Meng Huo's mouth is so hard! It's estimated that if a person is dead for a thousand years and his mouth is dug out, it will still be hard."

"Second capture..."

"Release again?!"

"Third time..."

"Oh my god..."

When watching this plot, the audience not only teased Meng Huo's hard mouth, but also felt Zhuge Liang's almost overwhelming IQ suppression.

Capture and release again!

Capture and release again!

In a blink of an eye, it has been five captures! But Meng Huo refused to accept it, Zhuge Liang just smiled and let Meng Huo go!

The sixth time, Meng Huo asked his wife to help him, so he used the trick of false surrender. With Zhuge Liang's ability, how could he not see through this trick?

Meng Huo said that if Zhuge Liang could catch him next time, he would surrender!

And the seventh time is coming soon!

Meng Huo invited Wugugu, the Wuguo rattan armor army, to fight a decisive battle with Zhuge Liang and the Shu army.

But Zhuge Liang used oil carts and gunpowder to burn countless barbarians to death. Meng Huo was captured for the seventh time, and then he surrendered sincerely and admired him from the bottom of his heart.

So far, Meng Huo has been captured alive by Zhuge Liang for seven times! !

"66666666! Meng Huo was captured seven times!"

"This Meng Huo is really tough!"

"Too awesome Prime Minister!"

"Zhuge Liang is showing off!!"

"I can only say that the gap between anyone is bigger than the gap between humans and pigs. It's amazing!"

...

As soon as the classic plot "Seven Captures of Meng Huo" came out, Zhuge Liang's name resounded throughout the land of Kyushu!

Not convinced, right?

Then I’ll beat you until you’re convinced! !

The full-time person always talks hard and refuses to accept anything!

Zhuge Liang had no choice but to attack the city first and attack the heart first. He had no choice but to use this simple and crude strategy to defeat Meng Huo alive and well.

From a popular point of view, this plot can be said to be the most exciting in "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms". It is even more exciting than Kong Ming's Three Qi Zhou Yu, which shows Zhuge Liang's wisdom and determination to the extreme!

"Unconsciously...there have been so many episodes..."

"Made, why don't we have two or three hundred episodes of "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms"? I'll watch it as long as it's being filmed!"

"Lin Qiu probably doesn't have the time, not to mention that this is based on the original work of the old thief. I guess there is only so much content in "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms", otherwise it would be impossible to shoot only part of it."

"If I go, Cao Pi will die too?"

"this……"

…

Unconsciously, the story of "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms" has reached the 70th episode, and has gradually entered the second half. In fact, it can be seen from the year span of the plot.

Emperor Wen of Wei Cao Pi died of illness, which can be said to be an important node.

After Zhuge Liang captured Meng Huo's squad seven times and returned to the court, he immediately had his thoughts in mind. Zhuge Liang knew that Sima Yi was a serious problem, and Cao Rui, who succeeded him, was suspicious, so he immediately used counterintuitive tactics to spread rumors and falsely claimed that Sima Yi was treasonous.

As expected, Cao Rui deprived Sima Yi of his military power. Seeing that Sima Yi had been demoted, Zhuge Liang wanted to personally carry out the Northern Expedition. Seizing this excellent opportunity to restore the Central Plains, he submitted a "Departure List" overnight, requesting Liu Chan to issue an order to raise troops to attack Wei! !

"The Master's Guide".

In previous lives, almost everyone had to learn to recite this expression, but at this time, it does not have the grace it deserves.

In fact, anyone who really studies Chinese or history knows that Zhuge Liang once had such a wonderful essay:

"The late emperor's business was not even halfway through, but the middle path collapsed. Today, Yizhou is suffering from fatigue and weakness. This is the time when our sincerity's survival is in danger."

"However, those who serve as bodyguards are tireless in their internal affairs, while those who are loyal and lofty are those who forget about themselves outside..."

"..."

…

"Hey! Prime Minister!!"

"Northern Expedition! Northern Expedition! The blood is boiling!"

"This expression is wonderful. This should be the best opportunity for the Kingdom of Shu. It doesn't matter if Zhuge Liang fails, just don't have pig teammates to drag Zhuge Liang down! Go ahead!"

"kill!!"

"The climax is coming! The battle between Wei and Shu! Sima Yi is not here, Wei Jun must die!"

The moment they saw "The Master", all the audience became excited!

This "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" originally takes the Shu Kingdom as the main perspective. Now that Zhuge Liang personally leads an army of 300,000 to the Northern Expedition, how could it not be exciting?

The truth of history is that although the Sima family reaped the final fruits in the end, the general public had no idea whether the Northern Expedition would be a victory or a defeat. What if Zhuge Liang won and Cao Rui abdicated, and Sima Yi might seize power as a result?

The war was about to break out. Cao Rui was frightened by the news and quickly sent troops to resist. However, without Sima Yi's presence, it was difficult for anyone in the Wei army to match Zhuge Liang. Zhuge Liang not only played a triumphant song, but also used his wits to conquer the rare enemy. The "general's talent"!

This man's name is Jiang Wei. He is very resourceful in fighting and is a rare general. Now among the five tiger generals, only the white-haired Zhao Yun is left. There are talents like Jiang Wei in Shu, even after the deaths of Zhao Yun and Zhuge Liang. They can all have successors.

"What the hell, this is such a good situation. Zhuge Liang is still alive. How did Shu lose in the end..."

"Jiang Wei is definitely not a silver pewter spear head, he is really talented! He is both civil and military!"

After Zhuge Liang took over Jiang Wei, Jiang Wei offered his advice to help Liang conquer Tianshui and Shanggui, and the Shu army became famous.

Later, he scolded Wang Lang to death on the shore of the Weishui River.

In this battle, Zhuge Liang's troops left Qishan and approached the Weishui River. It could be said that they were approaching Chang'an. The situation was great!

The better the situation is, the more worried the audience is, for fear that some general will fall ill. I don’t ask you to take merit, as long as you don’t hold back the Prime Minister, anything can be said!

The Wei army had no choice but to ask Sima Yi to come out again, which indeed saved the Wei army's decline and formed a distant echo with Zhuge Liang.

"Sima comes out of seclusion."

"Must take the street pavilion!"

This is what Zhuge Liang said.

Although Jieting is small, it is of great importance to the Shu army. It is an important food route for the Shu army and must not be missed.

When he joined the army, Ma Su asked for orders and issued a military order in front of the army: "If the street pavilion is lost, the whole family will be beheaded!".

After Zhuge Liang repeatedly warned him, he ordered him to set up camp on the road, and ordered Wang Ping to help him and guard the street pavilion together!

…

"over!"

"What are you talking about!"

"Something is definitely going to happen! Whatever you are afraid of will happen!"

"The ominous premonition has come again. Although Zhuge Liang is extremely resourceful, he always makes mistakes in employing people. At first glance, this Ma Su is a willful and arbitrary person."

"It's all... it's all over..."

"I really can't blame others. I can only say that Zhuge Liang made a mistake in hiring people."

Ma Su was stubborn, refused Wang Ping's dissuasion, and forced his troops to station troops on the mountain. As a result, Sima Yi easily defeated him, and the street pavilion was declared lost, and the Shu army was in a desperate situation!

"No way..."

"Don't..."

“We can’t fight, we can’t retreat, it’s really a desperate situation!!”

Countless spectators clenched their fists and waited silently, praying that Zhuge Liang would not die here, or that the main force of the Shu army would be annihilated here, but now, it seems to be a desperate situation...

Fight, if you can't fight, you will definitely lose.

Withdrew, Sima Yi led the Wei army in hot pursuit...

In this desperate situation, Zhuge Liang once again contributed his most classic plan in "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms"!

This plan is called...

Empty city plan! !

…

When Sima Yi chased to Xicheng, he saw the Xicheng in front of him, and the city gate was wide open!

A few common people were sweeping the streets. Going to the top of the city, Zhuge Liang was sitting on the city tower with a calm expression, playing the piano calmly. There were only two children beside him, looking calm and confident.

What a talent Sima Yi is.

How talented is Zhuge Liang?

In fact, in the battle of wits on the battlefield, the most important thing is to know people. Once you know what kind of character your opponent is, you will know how to design a response. Many of those wonderful strategies are based on the opponent's character.

And Sima Yi knew that Zhuge Liang was cautious in his life and never took risks. Seeing the current situation, he was afraid of being ambushed and did not dare to make any rash advances. The key is that Wei Jun cannot afford to lose!

But now the open-mouthed audience knows that the West City at this moment is a real empty city!

All military generals have been dispatched, leaving only civilian officials and a few sergeants. It is impossible to resist the pursuit of the Wei army.

"Holy shit!!"

"Empty City Strategy!!"

"Zhuge Liang is so calm, so calm that even Sima Yi finds it strange!"

"When a fake becomes true, it is also true and false. When there is no action, there is something and then there is nothing. Zhuge Liang is so amazing!"

"Sima Yi withdrew! Oh my God!"

"Is Zhuge Liang the god of wisdom?!"

Seeing that Sima Yi was excited when he heard Zhuge Liang's music and believed that there was an ambush in the city, Sima Yi resolutely ordered the troops to withdraw quickly!

"This plan is so classic! I would like to call it the best plan among the Three Kingdoms!"

"The main reason is that Zhuge Liang really has no choice."

"Yes, from a purely strategic perspective, the Empty City Strategy can only be used as an unavoidable option, but it often has surprising effects. If you use it frequently, you will be in trouble."

Unparalleled shock!

If you want to ask about the most amazing person in "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms", it must be Zhuge Liang!

In addition to some criticisms of the personnel, he almost saved the Shu army from fire and water many times.

And this empty city plan is even more so-called "the real one is real, the imaginary one is imaginary".

Once Sima Yi has doubts, he will hesitate even more. This is the so-called "suspiciousness arouses suspicion".

Of course, this empty city strategy is definitely not "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms" or Zhuge Liang's original strategy.

Although it is a novelist's novel, in fact, as early as the Spring and Autumn Period, there were excellent examples of using the empty city strategy. In modern terms, it is to grasp the opponent's suspicious character and then scare them! !
