Chapter 1677: Tripartite Alliance (Page 1/1)

However, when acting, Zhuge Liang will inevitably be inclined to the Jingzhou family, the Jingzhou family is weak, and he followed him from Jingzhou, in order to balance each other's strength, it is natural to let the Jingzhou family achieve more development.

On the surface, the stable Yizhou, in fact, is not the case, not only to face the threat from Hanzhong, but also to face the invasion of the barbarians, these barbarians in the blade armor, although much worse than the Han army, but they are extremely strong in personal bravery, which is very similar to the Qiang people in Liangzhou, when Liu Zhang was in charge of Yizhou, these barbarians were also mainly appeased.

When it comes to Liu Bei, the same is true, if you start a war with the barbarians, it is an extremely unwise move, once the strength is lost, it is very likely that you will face a large army from Hanzhong.

"Kong Ming, according to the news from Xizuo, the defenders of Jiameng Pass are secretly building a plank road, could it be that they want to attack Yizhou?" Liu Bei said.

Zhuge Liang shook his head and said: "This time, the King of Jin led tens of thousands of troops to attack the Qiang people in Liangzhou, and there are not too many troops around Chang'an, even if they will not attack Yizhou at such a time." ”

"Its plank road, just to be able to attack Yizhou in the future, but the plank road is dangerous, even when the soldiers in Shu pass through the plank road, they are also cautious, and it is not easy to enter Yizhou through the plank road, just send a small number of soldiers and horses to guard the plank road, so that the king of Jin can return in vain."

Liu Bei was a lot relieved when he heard this, and now the army he was most unwilling to face was the Chang'an army under Lu Bu.

"Lord, the king of Jin led the soldiers and horses to pacify the Qiang people in Liangzhou, but he was not in a hurry to return to the army, presumably he had an idea about Dunhuang County, and the lord might as well go to the table and win over Dunhuang County to guard Chen Ying." Zhuge Liang said.

Liu Bei nodded and said: "Kong Ming's words are very true, if the King of Jin gets Dunhuang County, the entire Liangzhou will be in the hands of the King of Jin." ”

The faster Lu Bu's strength expanded, the more Liu Bei felt uneasy, in fact, Liu Bei not only wanted to take Hanzhong from Lu Bu's hands, but also wanted to break through Jingzhou and take Jingzhou back in his hands.

Although Jingzhou is the land of four wars, it is a very important place to fight for the world, once Jingzhou is occupied, it means that Yizhou will occupy the initiative in the future war, but Liu Bei understands that it is basically impossible to drive Sun Ce and Cao Cao's forces out of Jingzhou.

"Lord, now the princes are constantly strife, even if the King of Jin led the soldiers and horses to attack Liangzhou, there are still no princes who dare to attack the rule of the King of Jin, but because of Jingzhou, the three parties are in contradiction, the lord should send a messenger to Jiangdong and Xudu to negotiate an alliance with the two parties, and now the King of Jin is powerful, and it is very difficult to resist the soldiers and horses of the King of Jin with the power of one side alone." Zhuge Liang said: "After the tripartite union, the situation is very different, there are many brave and good warriors under the command of the King of Jin, Cao Jun and Yizhou also have a lot of elite soldiers, no matter which side the King of Jin attacks in the future, it will be attacked by the other side, which can greatly contain the strength of the King of Jin, not only that, but also allow the three parties to unite again." Zhuge Liang said.

Liu Bei's eyes lit up when he heard this, and now although the princes have gone through continuous wars, the number of elite soldiers in the hands of the princes has been greatly improved, especially after the battle with Lu Bu, so that the princes attach great importance to the elite soldiers, such as the heavy cavalry under the command of Cao Jun, which is absolutely invincible on the battlefield.

Don't look at the strength of Lu Bu now, it is much stronger than when the princes jointly attacked the state, but in terms of overall strength, the princes have improved faster, and if the three parties jointly attack Chang'an again, they will definitely be able to burst out with more powerful combat effectiveness.

The existence of Lü Bu is a huge deterrent for the princes, whether it is Cao Cao or Liu Bei, they need to worry about the threat from Lü Bu at all times, among which Yizhou's strength is the weakest.

"Cao Cao and Sun Ce both want to occupy Jingzhou, how can they give up so easily." Liu Bei sighed, now Cao Cao has the imperial court headed by Liu Cong in his hands, and the jade seal is very likely to be in Cao Cao's hands, but at this point, Yizhou is at a disadvantage.

Zhuge Liang frowned slightly and said: "Whether it is Sun Ce or Cao Cao, they are both outstanding people, and they will definitely be able to understand the key points." ”

After Cao Cao learned the news that Yizhou sent an envoy to come, he was not surprised at all, Cao Cao did not have much opinion on the alliance proposed by Liu Bei, as for what kind of actions would be made after the alliance, it was not for Liu Bei to influence.

An alliance between princes is also of great benefit.

Jiangdong also agreed to the alliance without hesitation, and in order to show his sincerity, Liu Bei even admitted the reasonableness of Cao Cao and Sun Ce in Jingzhou.

Now, although this recognition does not have much influence on the princes of the two sides, it represents Liu Bei's sincerity.

As for Sun Ce and Cao Cao, they just paused and stopped, Cao Cao only had Nanyang County, Nanjun and Wuling County in his hands, how could he give up so easily, in order to attack Jingzhou, Cao Jun paid a lot of low prices.

There was only a temporary truce between Sun Ce and Cao Cao, and when the other party found an opportunity, it would definitely start fighting again.

Jiangdong and Lu Bu are not close to each other, this is Sun Ce's huge advantage over Cao Cao and Liu Bei, there is no need to worry about the threat from Lu Bu, if he unites with Lu Bu, it can also play a big role.

Lu Bu's current strength is strong, and it is also the long-distance and close attack of Qiang Qin back then, but the princes at this time are not the mediocre monarchs of various countries at that time, and they will not be easily deceived by Lu Bu.

However, Sun Ce really wanted to get Jingzhou, Jingzhou was a crucial step for Sun Ce to dominate the world, after having Jingzhou, the Jiangdong Army not only had the opportunity to attack Yizhou, but also had the opportunity to attack Yuzhou, and its strength could be greatly improved.

If it was done like this, it was cheaper for Lu Bu, and Lu Bu led his soldiers and horses to Liangzhou to deal with the Qiang people, which really made the princes secretly relieved, and no prince was willing to face Lu Bu at such a time.

The three sides did not have any fighting for the time being, but they focused their eyes on Liangzhou, and it is unknown whether they expected Lu Bu to be able to pacify the Qiang people on the battlefield in Liangzhou.

It seems that Liu Bei would like Lu Bu to lead the army to be lost in Liangzhou, so that the forces led by Lu Bu will inevitably collapse.

The successive victories of the Chang'an army made the princes temporarily extinguish their plans to deal with Chang'an, after the war, the princes also need time to recover their strength, but Chang'an's ability to collect money is too terrifying, especially in Chang'an, there are princes and merchants who yearn for the most war horses, only to get the war horses, it means that there will be more benefits to obtain.
