The little prince Liu Dong was very happy to see his father, but he felt very awkward when he saw his father treating the children of the people in ragged clothes. The emperor is the noble of the nine fives and the proud son of heaven, how can he compare with the people? Although Liu Dong is young, he can follow Mr. Qingcheng to learn civil and military strategies and teach in the palace since childhood. The concept of seniority and inferiority hierarchy has long been developed.

On weekdays, there are countless palace guards who bow their heads to him in bright clothes. Why should we put down our posture with this useless people?

What he thought in his heart was unconsciously on his face. Liu Chan knew it, but his attention was attracted by the battle under the city. The barbarians fought and retreated, and the Wei army was clamoring and advancing, and two or three thousand Wei troops stayed in the camp to build and repair the siege equipment. It seemed that the Wei army did not stop attacking Xiangyang because of the arrival of the reinforcements of the Shu Han Dynasty, but instead became more active.

"Sir, talented, there are few opponents in the world. Can the Wei army retreat here?" Liu Chan looked at Mr. Qingcheng and said with emotion in his heart.

Mr. Qingcheng was not in a hurry to reply when he heard this. Instead, he walked and stopped on the city tower and knocked and said: "The reinforcements were insufficient and it was difficult to defeat the Wei army. The troops in the city were also weak and it was difficult to go out of the city to fight. This Xiangyang City is the safest place, but... according to the current level of damage, whether it can withstand the Wei people's fierce attack... makes people worry..."

Liu Chan was surprised and said: "I have raised countless high walls and castles inside and outside the city. As long as the military and civilians work together, I believe that the Wei army has no chance. Why do you say this?"

Mr. Qingcheng sighed slightly: "Defensive fortifications are certainly enough to be used, why don't your Majesty look at the people who guard the city, but they are enough to resist the siege of the Wei army at the same time?"

Hearing Mr. Qingcheng say this, everyone present realized that although there was hope for reinforcements, there were very few people and soldiers who could stand up in Xiangyang City and sacrifice their lives to defend the city. Everyone was injured and their combat power was reduced. The Wei army under the city was only one line away from the broken city. Now that Shu Han reinforcements came, the Wei people would seize every time to attack Xiangyang City!

This fierce attack will be the last crazy and fiercest attack, and the military and civilians in Xiangyang City who can be used to defend the city can no longer cover every defense point - that is to say, the number of defenders that Xiangyang City can call is far lower than the basic number required to defend the city.

If the Wei army had attacked like before, the Shu army could still support it. If it was really as Mr. Qingcheng said, and to launch a general attack and attack Xiangyang at any cost, then Xiangyang City would probably not be able to last for an hour.

This is not an exaggeration. Everyone present is a military-friendly person. As long as you see this, you will not question it.

"Mr. Yi only saw, what should we do?" Liu Chan asked with a serious look on his face.

Mr. Qingcheng looked at Liu Chan with one eye, slowly said with two words: "Abandon the city!"

"What!?" Liu Chan was shocked when he heard this.

Wen Li said at this time: "There is still a barrier to stay here. If you abandon the city and walk, how can the enemy escape from all over the world?"

Mr. Qingcheng smiled and said, "The Wei army is fighting fiercely with the barbarians. If you want to leave, then you will be left to fate when you pass by."

The Wei army was still in fierce battles with the barbarians, and it was a distance from Xiangyang City. The Wei army was only three or five thousand under the city. If the Shu army in the city sacrificed their lives and rushed out, and with a master like Mr. Qingcheng, the chance of breaking the siege should be quite high. However, in this way, the promise of life and death between Liu Chan and the people in Xiangyang City became a laughing stock, a false statement...

There was constant sound of killing under the city, and everyone in the city pondered, their eyes swept the top of the city, and their uneasy eyes were for themselves, for Xiangyang, simple people who gave up their family and life. Liu Chan's heart rolled and almost choked.

The old man surnamed Wen among the people knelt down tremblingly and said, "Caomin and others are deeply grateful to the holy grace. If you have the opportunity to escape, I hope Your Majesty will leave the danger as soon as possible. Caomin and others look forward to it, waiting for Your Majesty to make a comeback." As soon as this statement came out, many loyal and martyred people on the city agreed.

Liu Chan's eyes flashed with tears. He looked at Weng and other people. The children, brothers, parents and relatives of these people sacrificed their lives for the country. There was still no complaint at all. It was true that the Han Dynasty was deeply loved by the people. Even so, who can be calm under the influence of sincerity?

While hesitating, the news that Your Majesty wanted to abandon the city spread throughout Xiangyang. The people and military officers on the city were mixed, and any dialogue news was difficult to control. When the people in the city heard this, they were excited and they all cried: "Your Majesty abandoned me! Your Majesty abandoned me! Your Majesty abandoned me..."

Your Majesty abandoned me, and the four words fell heavily in my heart like an iron hammer. Liu Chan said nothing, and the king and his subjects were sad.

As soon as the clothes were moved, Liu Chan looked down, but his beloved son Liu Dong pulled himself: "This place is dangerous, and the father should make a decision immediately and not hesitate."

Seeing his beloved son, a hint of relief arose, Liu Chan said: "My intention has been decided, are you afraid of death?"

"If my son is afraid, he will not be here." The little prince Liu Dong knelt on the ground and said when he heard this.

"Very good, Qiao Deng, where is Zhuge Shang?" Liu Chan raised his eyebrows and made a decision in his heart.

"I am here!" Qiao Deng and Zhuge Shang said after hearing this.

"The manpower can be opened at the south gate of the city. I have already drafted a decree and have never been able to choose. I will entrust this to you and the two of you today." After saying that, Liu Chan took out a decree that had been written from his arms and put it to Zhuge Shang.

"Your Majesty is this?" Zhuge Shang and Qiao Deng were shocked when they heard this, and they had some guesses in their hearts.

"I will lead an army to charge later. You and the two of you will take the warriors and imperial edicts to break through and return to Sichuan to hand it over to the prince. If I am unhappy, you will assist the prince in ascending the throne and hand it over to the general for full power to deal with it. The great cause of restoration of the Han Dynasty will not be abolished!" After the words were made, the soldiers and civilians were shocked. Liu Chan's move was tantamount to entrusting his orphans!

"Your Majesty must not do this. I am willing to sacrifice my life to fight to the death and escort Your Majesty back to Sichuan and seek revival!"

"Your Majesty's Nine Five, the king of a country, can he destroy the world's hegemony because of the people of a city?"

The ministers present kowtowed and advised each other. Liu Chan was speechless and said firmly: "I am the emperor of the Han Dynasty. Today, the city is here, and the city is here, I will die, and I will never regret it if I say a word or a promise!"

"Yes! I'll do it now." Wen Li, who was close to Liu Chan, unexpectedly returned to the city without any advice.

The ministers were helpless in persuasion, but it wasted a lot of time. The barbarians finally lost to retreat, and the Wei army once again surrounded Xiangyang. The main force of the Wei army was at the city, and the matter of breaking out of the city was gone. Liu Chan took Mr. Qingcheng back to the palace in the city to discuss matters in private, and the Shu Han soldiers were preparing to fight to the death.

The people in the city were filled with sorrow. Now, I heard that His Majesty had no intention of abandoning the city, but instead decided to live and die with everyone. Suddenly, the people in the city were in high spirits. Some people from all households and households made great efforts to join the guards on the city.

"I didn't expect that today is still there. Things are really impermanent..." Liu Chan and Mr. Qingcheng were alone in the study, and couldn't help but sigh.

"Hahaha, I never thought that there would be today. Your Majesty was just a mediocre master back then, but now he is very capable of controlling people's hearts. I admire him, admire him!" Mr. Qingcheng said with a bit of sadness when he smiled.

Liu Chan thought for a while, and then asked: "Mr. He is rare in the world, why do he stay in the Sichuan and give advice to his son?"

Mr. Qingcheng looked north and sighed for a long time: "I have also returned to the Central Plains alone, all over the Yellow River, but I cannot find my family's whereabouts... The Central Plains have no place to live, and there is a war in the south of the Jingzhou Jiangnan, so I can only return to the middle of the Sichuan... Alas..."

Liu Chan nodded slightly and said, "Zhong Shiji shirked responsibility and blamed the defeated army on the gentleman. The people in the Central Plains are really unfair to the gentleman..."

A hint of hatred flashed across Mr. Qingcheng's face, and then shook his head and said, "The people of Xiangyang can be used, and Du Yuankai's plan cannot be hidden from him. Jiang Boyue and Yang Shuzi. Your Majesty is firmly in this place. Although he is in the center of the huge wave, he is as stable as Mount Tai. As long as he deals with it carefully and is cautious, he can finally see the sun."

Liu Chan nodded and said, "Mr. Chengtou intended to help me just now. I am grateful. I don't know what plans are for me. Do you want to stay in Sichuan and give me some advice?"
