Chapter 230

Xinye, barracks.

Liu Bei, Guan Yu, Zhang Fei and Zhuge Liang took their seats in the grand account of the Chinese army.

Today's Liu Bei is in high spirits.

With more than 20000 soldiers stationed in Xinye, Liu Bei no longer has to worry about the shortage of grain. In addition to the 100000 stone grain he received from Liu Xiu, the 10000 stone grain Liu Biao gave him, and the grain Xinye itself has.

With the continuous training of 20000 troops, they all have certain combat effectiveness.

With a smile on his face, Liu Bei said: "military division, we have food, grass and soldiers. Now everything is ready. What should we do next?"

With soldiers and grain, Liu Bei also had an idea to expand his power.

Zhuge Liang gently shakes the feather fan and says without hesitation: "my Lord, what we have to do now is to keep a low profile and enhance our strength."

Liu Bei couldn't wait to say, "don't you send troops?"

Zhuge Liang asked, "where does the Lord want to attack?"

Liu Bei didn't even think about it. He said without hesitation: "naturally, it's to attack Cao Jun stationed in Nanyang County and drive Cao Jun out of Nanyang County. We are based in Nanyang."

Zhuge Liang said, "my Lord, do you think you can compete with Cao Cao now? Or does the Lord think Nanyang County can stand firm? "

A basin of cold water splashed on Liu Bei's head.

Liu Bei wanted to fight, but he was not stupid. He knew that with his troops, he could not compete with Cao Cao.

Finally, Liu Bei shook his head and said, "it's impossible to compete with Cao Cao."

Zhuge Liang looked pleased and said slowly, "if only my lord understood, Cao Cao occupied half of the country and had a strong army. It is impossible to compete with Cao Cao with 20000 troops. The most important thing is that Nanyang's four battlefields can not be used as a foundation. The Lord has no foundation. The supply of grain and military resources is the problem. Therefore, the Lord can only wait for the opportunity now. "

"What chance?" Liu Bei asked.

Zhuge Liang's eyes narrowed, a light flashed in his eyes, and said in a deep voice: "an opportunity to be in Jingzhou, or an opportunity to be in Yizhou. Jingzhou or Yizhou is the place for the Lord to stand. "

Liu Bei nodded and understood Zhuge Liang's words.

Liu Bei said, "there is one more thing, military strategist. Liu Xiulian conquered Jiangdong, and Jiangdong was in crisis. When this news reaches Cao Ren's ears, he should not sit back and ignore it. Maybe he will attack Xinye with his army. "

Zhuge Liang said: "my Lord, I've been worried a lot. When Cao Ren gets the news, he will be harassed at most. Cao Cao's army is not accustomed to water war. In the case of inadequate preparation, Cao Cao will not easily start the war, so it is impossible for Cao Ren to go south on a large scale. Cao Ren's troops harassed Liu Biao at most, which made him worried. Then he asked Liu Biao to transfer Liu Xiu back to Xiangyang to resist, so as to relieve the pressure of Jiangdong and create a situation of rivalry between the two tigers. "

"Newspaper!"

A loud voice came from outside the hall.

A general in armor, silver helmet and sword came in. He is dignified, handsome, eyebrows, has a strong Yingqi, give people an impression of high spirited.

This man is Chen Dao, Liu Bei's confidant.

Under Liu Bei's command, there are 20000 elite soldiers, but there is also a pro guard elite, which is the White army led by Chen Zhi.

Chen Dao led the White army.

"See you, Lord!"

Chen Dao walked into the hall and saluted respectfully.

With a faint smile on his face, Liu Bei asked, "why did you come here?"

Chen zhengse said: "just received the news, Cao Ren of Wan county has signs of sending troops. Xinye and Jiyang at the junction of the place, often friction occurs

Liu Bei said: "it's OK to continue to inquire about the news. As long as Cao Ren didn't attack Xinye on a large scale, he didn't have to worry about it. "

"No!"

Chen Dao nodded, then turned back.

Guan Yu took the words and said: "military commander, Cao Ren's army has signs of sending troops. Although the military division's analysis is reasonable, what if Cao Ren suddenly attacks? "

Zhuge Liang said: "general Guan is worried too much. Even if Cao Ren's army suddenly attacks, our troops are enough to cope with it. So there's no need to worry about Cao Ren. "

Zhang Fei hummed: "it's meaningless to confront Cao Ren. It's better to send troops."

Liu Bei said: "third brother, you know how to fight and kill."

"What big brother said is that I know the military division is right." Zhang Fei mumbled and nodded.

Zhuge Liang gently shook the feather fan in his hand and said: "Lord, the focus now is Xiangyang. I'm sure Liu Xiu will be transferred back, and then there will be a good play. Now, we just need to watch the fire from the other side and pay attention to the news of Xiangyang. "

Liu Bei said: "the military adviser thinks that there will be a good play?"

Zhuge Liang chuckled and said his inference. After listening to it, Liu Bei felt very happy.

……

The prefect's residence, Nanchang County.

Zhou Yu and sun Ben became brothers. They met in Nanchang County and were temporarily stationed in Nanchang County. Zhou Yu lost to Liu Xiu this time and became a defeated general. He could not blame sun Ben. Moreover, Liu Xiu and Huang Zhong's military presence brought great pressure to Nanchang.At this time, Luling County, Jiujiang county and other places sent troops to support. Even when Zhou Yu got the news, Sun Quan declared himself to Cao Cao and was willing to obey his orders.

How proud Zhou Yu was that he had to let the people from different counties come to rescue him.

In order to turn the situation around, Sun Quan had to submit himself to the throne.

A series of things, let Zhou Yu heart extremely uncomfortable, his self-esteem, can not bear such a situation. Zhou Yu has called together his generals to discuss how to defeat Liu Xiu.

After repeated deduction, Liu Xiu's army failed in the end.

In the hall, LV Meng scratched his head and said, "Dudu, the soldiers transferred from each county have arrived in Nancheng county and can attack Liu xiulai. It's better to attack by force than to plan for a war. "

"If you don't plan before the battle, once you are defeated, you will be defeated like a mountain. It's not advisable."

Zhou Yu shook his head and refused. He didn't want to make a strong attack, and it might not work.

Ling Tong turned his eyes and said, "governor Du, since he can't think of a solution, why not make trouble behind Liu Xiu? You county is Liu Xiu's headquarters. It might be more appropriate to make trouble in you county. "

Make trouble?

There was a flash of light in Zhou Yu's eyes. He had a new idea in his head. He quickly turned his mind, a new plan, in Zhou Yu's brain rapid prototyping, and then perfect.

Zhou Yu said: "this governor thought of a new strategy. He fought with no blood to defuse Liu Xiu's offensive."

Lu Meng said, "please show it to the governor of Dadu!"

Before, Zhou Yu thought of a series of strategies. When he deduced, there were some difficult links in the middle, so that he had to give up the execution. Zhou Yu thought of a new strategy. LV Meng didn't have much expectation in his heart. He just waited for Zhou Yu to make a deduction.

Ling Tong's eyes are full of expectations. As long as he has the opportunity, he always has to give it a try.

Zhou Yu was confident in his eyes and said, "this time, the plan will be able to be deduced."

"Zhou Yu said:" to defeat Liu Xiu, we must use stratagem. "

After hearing this, LV Meng made a careful calculation in his heart.

Ling Tong, sun Ben and the rest of the generals were also deducing Zhou Yu's plan.

They deduced step by step, and then combined with the actual situation of Jingzhou. Finally, LV Meng took the lead in saying: "this plan of the governor of Dadu is feasible, but he thought that one person must be sent to Xiangyang to preside over the overall situation, so as to ensure the implementation of the plan."

Ling Tong nodded and agreed: "Lv Meng's suggestion will be accepted by the general.". Only when you go there, you have to master the latest information and make adjustments to the overall situation. "

As soon as Zhou Yu brushed his sleeve, he said, "this time, I will go to Xiangyang in person."

"Ah

Lu Meng and Ling Tong exclaimed with surprise.

Lu Meng refused: "as the commander-in-chief of the army, the commander-in-chief of Dadu can't easily take risks. The governor of Dadu is willing to go to Xiangyang and take charge of the Xiangyang situation. "

Ling Tong echoed: "the end of will also do not agree with the governor himself to."

Zhou Yu solemnly said: "the plan is made by the governor. The governor knows every link of the plan best. It is the most appropriate for the governor to go there in person."

Lu Meng said: "the governor of Dadu is willing to go. As the commander-in-chief of the army, Dadu must take charge of the war in Yuzhang county. Don't you believe in the last general? "

Zhou Yu shook his head and said, "you are flexible and have good martial arts skills. Naturally, I believe you."

Lu Meng said: "since the governor of Dadu believes in the general, let the general go to Xiangyang. It's also very interesting to be able to fight with Liu Xiu and get him into trouble. "

Zhou Yu was silent for a moment and said, "if that's the case, it's up to you."
