In the study.

Liu Biao's gaze swept over the three of them, and it didn't last long, he just nodded and said:

"The three of you may wonder why I am in such a hurry to find you, but this is indeed an urgent matter, and the matter related to the survival of our entire Jingzhou is probably already in the morning and night."

Although Liu Biao's words are a bit exaggerated, they are indeed telling the truth.

After all, once Cao Cao led the army to attack Jingzhou, with the current strength gap between the two sides, Liu Biao did not have the confidence to resist Cao Cao at all, and this question was too difficult.

Because of this, as long as Cao Cao came to kill, they had no other choice.

Hearing Liu Biao's words, the three of them were stunned, their expressions were indescribable, and they were even more curious.

In fact, the Kuai family and the Cai family are both well-known families in Jingzhou, and Liu Biao's ability to master Jingzhou is inseparable from them.

Today's Jingzhou family is not weak, in fact, Liu Biao does not dare to say that he can completely control it. It's just that on the surface, Liu Biao still has his ability as the lord of Jingzhou.

Cai Mao couldn't bear it at first, and he asked:

"Lord, what the hell is going on?"

Liu Biao sighed, handed out the report, and said:

"Everything is here, see for yourselves."

The three of them were stunned, but they still had honest results, and looked at the news very attentively.

Cai Mao is Liu Biao's eldest brother, his young and beautiful sister married Liu Biao, and gave birth to Liu Biao's second son. That is, Liu Cong, who later took the whole of Jingzhou and gave it to Cao Cao.

I won't talk about it for the time being.

But Cai Mao and the three of them read the news, looked a little strange, and said:

"Lord, this shouldn't be a fake news, how can there be thousands of catties of grain per mu in the world. And the names of potatoes and sweet potatoes sound very strange. ”

However, Liu Biao seemed very determined, shook his head and said:

"No way, this news can't be fake."

Liu Biao is not a fool, with such exaggerated news, he will naturally send someone to confirm it first. And now the result is the result he got after confirming it, and there is no doubt at all.

If only it was really fake news, he wouldn't have to worry so much.

Seeing Liu Biao's reaction, the three of them also knew that the news was true, but this was still a little unbelievable.

How could there be such a miraculous thing in the world?

Could it be a legendary artifact?

Sensing the uneasiness of the three of them, Liu Biao was stunned for a moment, and shouted:

"I called you here to discuss important matters, why did you see the news so unbearable. Although my Jingzhou is not as good as Cao Cao, I also have 100,000 elites, and I may not have the strength to fight. ”

Cai Mao and the three stopped talking, but there was still a lot of inner drama.

Jingzhou does have more than 100,000 soldiers and horses, but these soldiers and horses are distributed everywhere. It is not easy to fully assemble, let alone the key combat power involved.

After all, the soldiers and horses under Cao Cao's command are not to mention that they have experienced a hundred battles, but they continue to recruit princes from all sides, and their strength is now extremely strong, and they are not at all able to stop the Jingzhou soldiers who are strong from outside.

But at this moment, in front of Liu Biao, they didn't dare to say this.

Wouldn't it be too much of a slap in the face to explain the real problem so directly, and it wouldn't save some face for Liu Biao.

Liu Biao said in a deep voice:

"Tell me all about what is going to happen now?"

Kuai Liang hesitated for a moment and said:

"Since Cao Cao is now planting this potato and place, then the lord might as well find someone to steal some and bring them out. As long as we can distinguish between the real and the fake, we will naturally be able to react to it. ”

Liu Biao shook his head speechlessly and replied:

"This matter is very difficult, we know that this thing is powerful, don't Cao Cao know. He had already sent people to defend it strictly, and it was not easy to send back this news. ”

Kuai Liang's face froze, and then he said:

"If that's the case, then you have to prepare in advance. The yield of this material is so high, if it can really be used as grain and grass, Cao Cao will definitely choose to go south in a short time.

If we don't prepare in advance, I'm afraid that when Cao Cao's army attacks, there will be no chance to react. ”

Kuai Yue also said:

"Actually, the lord doesn't have to worry too much, my Jingzhou combat power is certainly not as good as Cao Cao. But with the natural danger of the Yangtze River, in terms of water warfare, he may not be afraid of a mere Cao Cao.

The northern soldiers are not accustomed to water, as long as we grasp the opportunity, we will definitely be able to defeat Cao Cao in one fell swoop. ”

Cai Mao also nodded one after another, and echoed:

"If it's a water war, I, Jingzhou, am naturally not afraid of Cao Cao."

This time it was Liu Biao's turn to be a little surprised, he was puzzled and a little uncertain, and said hesitantly:

"Are you really sure?"

The three of them gave up one after another.

Not to mention whether you are sure in the time of the big war, anyway, if you speak now, you must not make people feel that they can't do it.

Now Liu Biao breathed a sigh of relief.

Cao Cao is indeed powerful, but Jingzhou is full of talents, and he may not be afraid of a single Cao Mengde.

It is to Liu Biao's slight chin and color:

"This is very good, you can go back and prepare, you can drill the navy, and the grain and grass will be ready as soon as possible."

The three of them took the order again.

This news is still top secret in the outside world.

And it didn't happen, Liu Biao didn't directly convene everyone to discuss, but only arranged a few henchmen.

But even so, Liu Biao is much more at ease at this moment.

Cao Cao is nothing more than that......

Jingzhou is indeed a good place.

In addition to Xiangyang, it is also in Xinye, north of Xiangyang.

This is Liu Biao's residence for Liu Bei.

Xinye is a new city, which is not a developed place anyway, and it is also the place where Liu Bei's brothers are temporarily stationed.

In fact, Liu Biao took Liu Bei in, and he did have the idea of wanting to use Liu Bei's ability for his own use. It's just that Liu Biao still doesn't worry about Liu Bei, so he still chooses to keep him by his side.

Xinye and Xiangyang are really not far away.

And at this moment, in Xinye City, Liu Bei's three brothers gathered together.

One of the men with a kind face and extraordinary bearing is obviously Liu Bei, the eldest brother of the three.

During this time, Liu Bei looked at Guan Yu and Zhang Fei who were sitting down, and sighed:

"Now that you and my brother are temporarily living in Xinye, I don't know when we will have the opportunity. If there is chaos today, and the Han family is about to collapse, although I, Liu Bei, am a relative of the Han family, I can't do anything about it......"

Liu Bei's tone was very sad and helpless.

Guan Yu and Zhang Fei listened to it, and they also felt empathy.

In fact, Liu Bei's reaction is not a trick, after all, he is indeed a member of the royal family, and he really wants to revive the Han family, but the reality hits him hard wave after wave.

Until now, Liu Bei has overturned many times.

Guan Yu arched his hand, and said solemnly with a burgundy face:

"Brother, why should I be like this, although we are still under the fence, but we are still in the prime of life, how do you know that it can't be done, the general trend of the world will change in the future, there will definitely be a chance."

Zhang Fei also echoed his words:

"The second brother is right, how can you think like this, eldest brother, at least now that my brothers are still alive, how can I say that I also have my own power in my hands, and it is not for nothing.

Think about the previous Yuan Shaogong Sun Zhan, although his strength was stronger than ours, but now he has died. Now that our lives are still alive, my second brother and I will definitely do our best to help. ”

Liu Bei seemed to be a little excited, he suddenly remembered something, and said:

"What the third brother said also makes sense, in fact, it's not these things that I'm worried about for my brother, it's just that I suddenly felt it. I only hope that God can give us another chance, and don't let the centuries-old foundation of the Han family be ruined.

In fact, if you think about it carefully, we have not been able to do it several times, after all, we have lost the guidance of others. If I could find a military division, maybe the fate of my three brothers would be very different, and now it may be an opportunity. ”

Since defecting to Liu Biao, Liu Bei can only be a salted fish.

After all, Yuan Shao was still thinking about expanding his territory and fighting with Gongsun Zhan and Cao Cao. Although he lost in the end, at least it shows that he still has some courage, which is different from Liu Biao.

Liu Biao at this moment is indeed a salty fish.

To be precise, it has been salted fish for many years, and since occupying Jingzhou, it has basically not gone out.

Previously, Cao Cao went north to conquer the remnants of the Yuan clan, and Liu Bei persuaded Liu Biao that sending troops at this moment might be able to achieve unexpected results, but Liu Biao was unwilling to live or die.

In the end, the plan ran aground, and Cao Cao was relieved.

This is the reality, Liu Bei's situation is indeed not very good, and it is even more embarrassing than before.

Liu Biao wants Liu Bei to be a vase with peace of mind, but how willing Liu Bei is, he is not a person who is willing to be lonely.

If Liu Bei had no ambition at all, he wouldn't be able to go to the current level, and I'm afraid he would have been obsessed with everyone a long time ago.

After all, Liu Bei was just a small trader weaving mats and selling shoes at the beginning.

Although there is a name for the royal family, and it is indeed true. But after hundreds of years of reproduction, Liu Bei's name as a royal family member is of no use at all.

It's not like Liu Biao, although when he first came to Jingzhou, he was just alone and had no power.

But in fact, Liu Biao's situation is very complicated, and he has accumulated a certain amount of fame before this. It's not a simple fledgling, no popularity, an ordinary white body.

If you really want to calculate it, Liu Bei can be said to be the one with the lowest starting point among the three forces.

Regarding Liu Bei's thoughts, Guan Yu and Zhang Fei have no opinions.

Maybe they don't care about any military advisors, but they still care about Liu Bei, so many years of brotherly feelings, not as complicated as others say, but quite direct and pure.

Since the two of them had no opinion, Liu Bei did not delay time.

directly wrote a recruitment order, the content was not simple, but it wrote out his sincere idea of seeking talents.

However, with Liu Bei's current situation, it is difficult to say whether anyone can see it. After all, Liu Bei is not an ordinary person, he can naturally distinguish what a bastard is.

If he is just a person who fishes in troubled waters, Liu Bei naturally doesn't want it, he wants to find someone who has real talent and learning, can help him on his road to kinghood, and go to success.

It's not an easy idea, but it's not without opportunities.

After all, Liu Bei just tried it, and if he couldn't connive at it, he wouldn't lose anything, it didn't matter.

And now Liu Bei's first thing is to recruit troops.
