Liu Bei made a big red face and was embarrassed. No matter how sorry Gongsun Chan was for him, after all, he betrayed Gongsun Chan, and it was when Gongsun Chan needed him the most. If he was in Pingyuan County, Yuan Shao would at least arrange some men and horses in Qinghe Country, and now that he has become Yuan Shao's subordinate, Tian Kai will not play a role at all, and Yuan Shao can fight Gongsun Zan without distraction.

"It's too early to say that the winner is not scored, right?" Jian Yong saw that Liu Bei and the three of them were being played by Jiang Gan, and knew that although their force was good, the three of them were not as good as Jiang Gan's tongue in terms of eloquence, so he could only take the initiative to come forward and take over the topic.

"No score?" Jiang Gan turned his head to look at Jian Yong. "A person like you can actually be a strategist, how can General Liu be undefeated."

Jian Yong was furious and arched his hand. "Please give me advice."

"Then you can listen up, I'll just say it once." Jiang Gan turned to Liu Bei. "The general is from Youzhou, have you heard of Xu Rong from Liaodong?"

Of course, Liu Bei knew that Xu Rong, who was a famous general of the Western Liang Army, defeated Cao Cao and Sun Jian one after another, but he knew better that Xu Rong was defeated by Sun Ce, and the 20,000 elite army was wiped out. When Jiang Gan mentioned Xu Rong, he naturally wanted to mention Sun Ce's achievements and seize the opportunity. He shook his head deliberately.

"I haven't heard of it."

"It's really unheard of, and even the famous generals in your state don't know." Jiang Gan blurted out without thinking. "As a general, you need to know the other in order to survive a hundred battles. Although my generals are young, they know the world's famous generals well, and they are even more clear about Xu Rong's ability to use troops, so he can win the battle. For that alone, you are far inferior to my generals. ”

Liu Bei was so angry that he couldn't speak, he thought he had dodged Jiang Gan's trap, but he didn't expect to fall into a bigger trap.

Jiang Gan continued: "Has the general ever read The Art of War? ”

Liu Bei snorted. "You know a little bit about it, didn't you say that your general is a soldier saint? It's better not to talk about such far-reaching and incomprehensible things, so as not to be laughed at. ”

Jiang Gan laughed. "My general has great military exploits, do you need to talk about the ancestors? General, you are too careful, only people who have no ability can talk about the glory of their ancestors, my general is not such a coward, he speaks with military exploits. ”

Liu Bei's face was red and white for a while, as if he had been slapped by Jiang Gan. Isn't he just the coward that Jiang Gan said, he likes to brag that he is a member of the Han family at every turn, but the ghost believes him.

"And what do you want to say?"

"The ninth march of "Sun Tzu's Art of War" clearly points out that there is no need to leave Ze behind. The spring water is born, and the vicinity of Mangdang Mountain will soon become a swamp, and the general will become a fish and turtle if he doesn't leave. This is basic common sense, I know it as a scholar, but the general doesn't know it? I'm not serious about reading. ”

Liu Bei's big ears twitched twice, his face was very ugly, and there was a burst of cold air on his back. He is a native of Youzhou, he is not very familiar with the climate in the south, and it is the first time he has garrisoned troops here, but he understands the truth that Jiang Gan said. The weather is getting warmer and warmer, and the water level around Dangshan is getting higher and higher, and those who pay attention will pay attention to it, but they may not think deeply, after all, the water does not rise all at once. But it's raining in the south, so what if there's a heavy rain?

In order to know astronomy and geography, he lost to Sun Ce in this regard.

"Ask the general again, there are more than ten generals under the command of my general, all of whom are fierce generals who have participated in the battle of the total annihilation of the Western Liang Army, in addition to Guan Yunchang under the general's command, who else has experience in commanding the army, can take charge of it alone and pay it a heavy responsibility?" Without waiting for Liu Bei to answer, Jiang Gan clapped his hands. "Oh, I'm sorry, I forgot, before I came to Qingzhou, there were only more than a thousand soldiers, so there was no need to entrust others. Unlike my generals, he has already commanded tens of thousands of troops in an unexpectedly year. ”

Liu Bei was speechless with anger, and his face was hot. He reached out and grabbed the long knife, ready to slash Jiang Gan's bastard to death. Hitting people without slapping them in the face, scolding people without revealing their shortcomings, how can you stab your heart and sprinkle salt on it? See if I don't hack you to death, see if it's your mouth or my knife.

Just as Liu Bei was about to pull out the knife from its sheath, Jiang Gan raised a finger. "One last question: Did the general leave the plains and go south, but did he leave people to garrison the plains?"

Liu Bei gritted his teeth and sneered: "I am now a pastor in Yuzhou, and I want to go to Yuzhou to take office, why do I still occupy Pingyuan County?" ”

"If the general is defeated, where will he go?"

Liu Bei frowned. "I'm not going to lose."

"If you don't win, you lose first. General Sun knows everything about you, and you don't know anything about General Sun. General Sun is like a god in his soldiers, and you don't even understand the basic principles of the art of war. General Sun has a lot of talents under his command, and there is only Guan Yunchang by your side, why do you believe that you can defeat my general and enter Yuzhou? Don't you know that Tian Kai has copied your back road, and Tao Qian also sent his son Tao Ying to command 10,000 troops to help my general break the enemy? General Liu, once you are defeated, you will be a lost dog. ”

Liu Bei gasped, but he was not to be outdone. "I also have helpers, and two of them are surnamed Yuan."

Jiang Gan was dismissive. "Two scholars, do you really believe that they can lead the army?"

Liu Bei was speechless. He didn't believe it either. He had met Yuan Yi and Yuan Xu a few times, and those two only knew how to talk about scriptures and arts, and they didn't know how to lead troops to fight at all.

"Don't be complacent, behind your general, in addition to Jiujiang Taishou Zhou Ang, there is also Lujiang Taishou Chen Deng, you probably didn't expect this."

"Chen Deng's whereabouts are all in the hands of my general. What he wants to do, my general is also clear, but General Liu, you are still in the dark. ”

"What do you mean by that?"

"Chen Deng does have the ability to command troops, and if he is here, he may be able to help the general. But he went to Lujiang, why? Didn't the general think about it carefully? ”

Before Liu Bei could speak, Guan Yu snorted: "I have long seen that the shaft has bad intentions, and sure enough." I have been going for so long, and there is no news at all, so I must have watched from the wall, watching us fight with Sun Bofu, and he could be the fisherman who made the profit. ”

Fine beads of sweat appeared on Liu Bei's forehead. The more he thought about it, the more uneasy he became. That's right, why does Chen Deng have to go to Lujiang, if he stays here, at least he can help me. This shaft looks down on me and deliberately avoids me, right? Or as Guan Yu said, he wants the snipe and the clam to compete and the fisherman to profit? Chen Deng can betray Tao Qian, he can betray Gongsun Zhan, both sides have no loyalty at all, and it is not impossible to betray each other.

Jiang Gan stood up and flicked his sleeves. "General Liu, don't think about it, you have no chance of winning this battle. You don't even need my general's shot, you'll soon be in a dilemma. Enter, you are not my general's opponent. Retreat, behind you is Daze, there is no way back. However, my general can give you a chance for Guan Yunchang's sake. ”

Liu Bei was silent, his eyes flickered, but Guan Yu took over the topic and sneered: "Brother Xuande and I, if you want to discord and stir up trouble, let me be a vassal to Sun Ce, but it is wishful thinking, and you will stop this idea as soon as possible." ”

Jiang Gan clapped his hands and praised. "Yun Chang is worthy of being righteous and thin, and this is what my general's admires most about you. He doesn't want you to be a vassal, but to fight you fairly. Yun Chang, how many people can you command? My general is willing to lead the same troops and fight with you. If you win, my general will give up Yuzhou, and General Liu will be the pastor of Yuzhou. If you lose, please ask General Liu to be a vassal to my general, and my general will let him be a county guard, which is no worse than the plains. How's that, do you dare to fight? ”
