    "At the same time, the prime minister sent another general with 50,000 troops to go south to Xinye to wipe out all Liu Xuande's forces first. Xinye is the gateway to Jingzhou. Once it falls, Liu Jingsheng will definitely panic. In addition, we know from the details of Jingzhou's reports that Liu Jingsheng has been in recent years.  The Cai family in Jingzhou wants to gain power. If the predictions are correct, Jingzhou will soon be in chaos because of the dispute over the heirs. How can it be possible to guard Jingzhou for a long time?  Treating each other with important duties, Cai will definitely come to join him and capture Jingzhou by then!

    If the situation develops as Jia Zhi expected, the Prime Minister will be able to conquer Northwest and Jingzhou in less than three years.  Winning the world's hegemony has become seventy-eight.  Liu Jiyu in Yizhou is a coward. At that time, the prime minister only needs a letter to conquer Yizhou without any blood.  As for Sun Bofu in the east of the Yangtze River, although there is the danger of the Yangtze River, he can't resist the Prime Minister's general trend of fixing the sky. Even if he insists on holding a strong position, it will be difficult to maintain it for long.  The Sun family was destroyed.  The Prime Minister can complete the great cause of becoming an emperor who unifies the world!  "

    "The ghost genius" Guo Jia's repeated words can shock the world and weep ghosts and gods. Just by his unparalleled theory, it is obvious that he is not inferior to Zhuge Liang and Zhou Yu.

    "Hahahahahaha!!! What a genius! Fengxiao, Fengxiao! You are worthy of being my Zhang Zifang, Cao Mengde. No! In my opinion, Fengxiao's talent is even better than Zhang Zifang!"

    With one word, Cao Cao spoke highly of Guo Jia, which was unprecedented.  Jia Xu hissed and sighed, even though he was a genius who once set up a series of beauty traps to collapse the Dong family's power, he couldn't help but feel inferior.  But within the crowd, Sima Yi was very excited, his eyes flashed with a sinister look, and he secretly thought in his heart.

    "This person is so intelligent that he is not even inferior to Wolong and Fengxiao. Guo Fengxiao is a genius! With this person sitting around Cao Mengde, I'm afraid I will have to hide for a while longer!"

    And just when all the civil and military personnel of the Cao family were filled with ecstasy, Xun Yu spoke with deep worry.

    "Although the people in the northwest are in panic because of their master's injuries, the prime minister must not underestimate the enemy because of Wen Youxi, Tian, ??Li, and Cheng, as well as Wu Guan, Zhao, Xu, and Gao.  Ten, there are no more than 10,000 soldiers, but with the new talent Zhuge Kongming, and all of his powerful generals are not to be underestimated, in Yu's opinion, Guo Jijiu's plan needs to be considered in the long run.  , don¡¯t act too hastily!¡±

    "The words of Duke Xun can be said to encourage others' ambitions and destroy one's own prestige! Doesn't it mean that Duke Xun's words mean that there is no one in the Central Plains? Under the lord's command, there are Jia, Guo, Xun, Cheng and other highly talented people in the literary and military circles.  The Xiahou brothers, Dian, Xu, Cao and other fierce warriors and generals, and the lord's civil and military team are prosperous, why should you worry about others being powerful!"

    As soon as Xun Yu said this, Cao Hong suddenly opened his eyes as big as bells and shouted loudly.  At the same time, many Cao soldiers also shouted in response.  Cao Cao closed his eyes and stood there, pondering.

    Gradually, everyone turned their attention to Cao Cao. What will happen in the future depends entirely on this man's thoughts.

    I don¡¯t know how long it took, Cao Cao slowly opened his eyes. The brilliant light that burst out in that moment was as if it could cover the color of heaven and earth. Everyone was stunned for a while. When they came back to their senses, they heard it in their ears.

    "A real man has things to do and things not to do. I, Cao Mengde, am determined to conquer the world. I destroyed Dong Zhuo, drove out Li Ji, fought against Yuan Shu, and defeated Yuan Shao. I have made countless achievements in my life. I am now the leader of the world. It all depends on my talents, my generals, and the sharpness of my soldiers. Now I am going to do this.  , the great opportunity to unify the world is just around the corner. If the success is achieved, the troubled times will end, and the people will be able to live and work in peace and contentment. It is all in this one move. How can I give up on my plan of filial piety?  . Wen Ruo can¡¯t persuade you any more!¡±

    "But there are unforeseen circumstances, just in case!"

    Xun Yu looked anxious and lost his voice. Cao Cao suddenly burst into anger and interrupted with a shout!

    "Man can conquer God, there is no chance!!!"

    Xun Yu was shaken by Cao Cao's drink. He staggered a few steps, bowed and apologized, and did not dare to say another word.  Cao Cao made a big plan, mounted his horse, and led a group of people back to Luoyang.  On that day, Cao Cao sent Liu Ye as an envoy to Yizhou to meet Liu Zhang with a memorial.  At the same time, he issued military orders and mobilized troops and horses on a large scale in various jurisdictions covering nearly half of the world.

    Cao Cao's power dominates the world, and if he makes a move, the world will change drastically.  When the princes from all over the country heard about what happened in the Central Plains, they were all shocked and fearful.  Especially in the northwest, when Xilong learned that Guo Jia had escaped, Cao Cao mobilized troops and horses, and increased troops and embankments in Hanoi and Bingzhou overnight.  At the same time, he ordered Guan Yu and Gao Shun to dig deep trenches, build earthen forts, prepare defensive materials, and take precautions at various dangerous passes.

    According to previous reports from the Dongchuan Kuaiqi, Wen Han has regained consciousness under the treatment of Hua Tuo and Zhang Ji, but he has not had a year of recuperation and is unable to wear armor and command troops.  And within half a year, Wenhan was not allowed to handle any affairs.  Cai Yan and the horse tamer have gone to Dongchuan to take care of Wen Han.  ?At this time, Wenhan could not take charge of the overall situation, so he issued military orders, sword seals and Xilong, allowing Xilong to temporarily control all military affairs.

    Xilong was ordered to do so when he was in danger. He worked hard every night and carefully arranged the battle situation in preparation for the upcoming war.

    At the same time, Liu Bei said that he was proud of Zhuge Liang, treated him as a teacher, and obeyed his advice.  Pan and Zhang were dissatisfied. They felt that their brother valued Zhuge Liang too much and feared that Zhuge Liang would deprive him of power in the future.  The two came to look for Liu Bei, Zhang Fei said angrily.

    "Brother, Kong Ming is young, what talent and learning does he have? Brother treats him too much! And we haven't seen his real results! Didn't Na Wen Bufan escape the elaborate trap he set up before?"

    When Liu Bei heard this, he frowned and shouted.

    "Don't be rude. I got Kong Ming like a fish gets water. There were many changes in the previous events. It was God's will that Na Wen Bufan was still able to escape under such a sophisticated arrangement by the military advisor. But now, Wen Bufan  An extraordinary fate is at hand. If the strategy of the military strategist goes as planned, Cao Cao will soon send troops to attack the northwest. At that time, we will have three or four years to recruit troops, build up our strength secretly, sit back and watch the situation, and wait for the opportunity.  Come on. Don¡¯t talk too much, you will annoy the military advisor and spoil my affairs!¡±

    Pan and Zhang Jian said that the two brothers had a look of displeasure on their faces, and after looking at each other, they left without saying a word.  Pan and Zhang had just retreated when Zhuge Liang came looking for them.  When Liu Bei saw Zhuge Liang approaching, he immediately showed a bright smile on his face and hurried to greet him.

    "Military advisor, what should I do now?"

    "Haha, my lord, there is no need to panic. Now I have to wait for someone to come and invite you."

    Zhuge Liang smiled lightly and fanned his fan. As he was talking, a soldier suddenly came to report that Liu Biao had sent someone to invite him to Jingzhou to discuss matters.  Liu Bei looked slightly shocked and looked at Zhuge Liang.  Zhuge Liang smiled.

    "The person Liang mentioned has come to invite you. This must be because Cao Cao has mobilized troops in the Central Plains. Liu Jingzhou is afraid that he will send his troops south, so he invites the lord to discuss a strategy to resist. I should go with the lord and follow my camera.  , have a good strategy to deal with it.¡±

    When Liu Bei heard this, he was amazed that Zhuge Liang knew things like a god.  So he followed Zhuge Liang's advice, leaving Pan Feng and Zhang Fei to stay in Xinye, and ordered Taishi Ci to lead 500 men and horses to follow them to Jingzhou.

    On the way, Liu Bei had many doubts in his heart and asked Zhuge Liang on his horse.

    "Now that I see Jing Sheng, if I ask about the previous incident, how should I respond?"

    Zhuge Liang waved his fan and smiled, saying this.

    "My lord is great. Wen Bufan wanted to send troops from Dongchuan to Shangyong to attack Jingzhou. My lord had already predicted it and set up spies in Dongchuan, so he learned about it. Later, unexpectedly, Wen Bufan ignored the danger and came to inquire in person. So  The Lord wanted to help Jingzhou eliminate this serious threat and set up ambushes one after another, but unfortunately he failed."

    Liu Bei nodded slightly after hearing this, remembered it in his heart, and then asked again.

    "What should I do if I ask about resisting Cao Cao?"

    "If that's the case, why wouldn't the lord take the opportunity to borrow more troops and horses from him for funeral arrangements?"

    Zhuge Liang¡¯s eyes were bright, and Liu Bei was delighted when he heard this, and he looked forward to arriving in Jingzhou as soon as possible.

    One day later, Liu Bei and others came to Jingzhou and settled down at the post office, leaving Taishi Ci to garrison outside the city.  Liu Bei and Zhuge Liang went into the city to meet Liu Biao.  In the county palace, after the ceremony, Liu Bei first asked for forgiveness at the door, talking about the incident in Xiangyang in the past, and at the same time, he also asked him to be exempted from the crime for Wenpin.  When Liu Biao saw this, he thought Liu Bei still hated Cai Mao for plotting the murder, so he quickly comforted him.

    "I have learned about the murder of my virtuous brother. At that time, I wanted to behead Cai Mao as a tribute to my virtuous brother, hoping that my anger would be appeased. Because everyone warned me of the danger, I will forgive him. Fortunately, my virtuous brother will not see the crime. As for General Wen, that day  Thanks to his protection, my brother was able to escape the disaster. General Wen has extraordinary strategy and ability in training troops. My brother is short of a training officer, so I asked General Wen to stay under your command temporarily to train his troops.  "

    Liu Bei was overjoyed when he heard this and bowed his hands in thanks.

    "Brother is righteous, I will guard the gate of Jingzhou for my brother and protect the safety of Jingzhou! As for the incident in Xiangyang, I came to the west chamber and felt that it was not the matter of General Qian Cai. I think it was all done by others. Brother, don't hold grudges for this!  "

    Hearing this, Liu Biao calmed down for a moment, then changed the topic and suddenly asked Wen Han about his serious injuries at Shangyong and Dongchuan realms. Liu Bei answered them one by one with the words taught by Zhuge Liang.  After Liu Biao listened, he frowned, stood up angrily, slapped the memorial table and shouted.

    "This extraordinary scholar is from a humble family. He is a member of three religions and nine streams. He has been blessed by heaven and gathered evil forces. He dares to covet my land in Jingzhou! I only regret that my good brother failed to kill him!!!"

    "Brother, please calm down. Wen Bufan is ambitious and deeply favored by the emperor, but he despises the imperial court and wants to compete for the world. Such ungrateful people will eventually end up like Dong Zhuo and Li Guo. His life is now in danger.  Day and night, it will be difficult to capture Jingzhou in the next few years, brother, you can rest assured."

    Liu Bei quickly offered words of comfort,I thanked Liu Bei first, then suddenly his face changed, and he said with a deep sadness.

    "Jingzhou is a battleground for military strategists. As soon as the wolves are driven away, the tigers come again. I heard that Cao Cao is deploying troops in the Central Plains, and I must have the intention of conquering the south. Cao Cao is powerful, and I am afraid that it will be difficult for my good brother to hold the new country!"

    Liu Biao finally revealed his true intention in summoning Liu Bei.  Liu Bei's heart tightened, his expression became hesitant, and he spoke.

    "My younger brother also heard about this. Cao Cao had more than 200,000 to 300,000 Qingzhou troops in Yanzhou. He killed Yuan Shu and got nearly 100,000 troops. After defeating Yuan Shao, he got another 300,000 to 400,000 troops. In recent years, he has recruited new troops in the Central Plains.  , there are about 200,000 troops in the combined attack. However, most of his troops are recuperating, but if he goes south to Jingzhou, he will gradually increase his troops.  My brother sent troops to help, but there are only ten thousand at present. How can we win with one against a hundred? If Cao Cao really sends his troops to attack, I am afraid that Xinye will be razed to the ground in less than half a month.  I must not lose it. I also hope that my brother can send me another 30,000 troops."

    As Liu Bei's words continued to fall, Liu Biao's face became darker and darker, as if he saw Cao Cao's million-strong army pressing down on him like a huge wave.  Then when he heard that Liu Bei asked him for troops, his heart suddenly tightened.

    Because there were few wars in Jingzhou, the soldiers and horses in Jingzhou were rarely damaged. Liu Biao continued to recruit troops every year to protect Jingzhou. At this time, Jingzhou had about 180,000 troops.  Among them, Liu Biao alone had the power of 100,000 troops, Cai Mao and other Cai generals accounted for about 60,000, and the remaining 20,000 were controlled by various generals and county guards.  This distribution of forces is just in balance.  Previously, Liu Biao had allocated nearly ten thousand troops to Liu Bei. If another thirty thousand were given, this balanced pattern would be broken immediately.  Liu Biao really can't guarantee what kind of trouble Cai will cause when the time comes.  What's more, Liu Biao was also wary of Liu Bei, the so-called good brother.

    Liu Biao narrowed his eyes, thought secretly for a while, and suddenly asked.

    "If Cao Cao really suppresses the situation with a large army, he will send at least 100,000 vanguard troops. Even if my brother and I have 30,000 troops, plus your original 10,000 troops, it will only be 40,000. The number of troops is more than twice that of his vanguard troops. How can we resist?  "

    "Brother, don't worry. I was lucky enough to ask Kong Ming to help me earlier. Kong Ming has the strategy to stabilize the country and the plan to stabilize the country. His strategy is so high that no one in the world can surpass him. As long as brother is willing to prepare another thirty thousand  Soldiers and horses, be prepared to issue military orders and keep the new territory safe!"

    Liu Bei's words were surprising, and he was actually willing to issue a military order in front of Liu Biao.  This was a move that Zhuge Liang had not delivered before, so Zhuge Liang was slightly surprised when he heard this.  Liu Bei glanced at him secretly, his eyes full of trust.  Zhuge Liang saw this and felt ripples in his heart.

    At this time, Liu Biao was also shocked, looked at Zhuge Liang, and asked hurriedly.

    "With such an astonishing talent at his feet, could it be that he is one of the two in the Jingzhou nursery rhyme, the crouching dragon and the phoenix chick, who can unite the world?"

    "Kong Ming is not talented, but he does have the title of Wolong. What the emperor's uncle said just now is nothing but false praise. Kong Mingtao knows a little about strategies, but he is willing to follow the emperor's uncle to establish a military order to protect the new country from danger!"
