Nanyang, Wollongong, Liu Bei returned again in vain.

"Kong Ming, you don't want to be a leader, you refuse, why do you repeatedly let that Liu Xuande think about it?" A Confucian scholar appeared behind Zhuge Liang, looking at the direction in which Liu Bei and the others were gone, if I remember correctly, this was the eighth time Liu Bei had come, even as a bystander, he could feel Liu Bei's mood swings.

It's not just that Zhang Fei who wants to kill, it's Liu Bei, who is obviously a little angry this time.

Thinking about it, everything is too much, Liu Bei came to invite him eight times but was politely refused, and he didn't even meet Zhuge Liang's face, this is Liu Bei, change the princes, even Ye Zhao and Cao Cao, who are known as thirsty for talent, are probably already looking for knives at this moment, and Liu Bei ...... I even made an appointment for the ninth meeting.

"After all, it is the ...... of the Han family" Zhuge Liang sighed, turned his head to look at the Confucian scholar beside him, and said: "Yuan Zhi has already gone to Chang'an to seek a way out, why don't Zhou Ping think about it?" ”

"My father, Cui Lie, has died at the hands of Ye Zhao's minions, and for personal gain, I have a grudge against Ye Zhao for killing my father; Yu Gong, how cruel Ye Zhao is to our scholars, although the general trend of the world has been decided, Ran would rather die in this mountain and forest than compromise with it, we scholars should have the spirit of scholars. The Confucian said proudly.

When Ye Zhao occupied Jizhou, he took advantage of the chaos to clean up the remaining families in Jizhou, and the Cui family, as the first family in Qinghe and even Jizhou, was naturally the focus of care, and the result was that the huge Qinghe Cui family, so far there is only one Cui Jun left, and he naturally has a reason to hate Ye Zhao.

Zhuge Liang was silent when he heard this, this is also the reason why he knew that the general trend of the world had been decided, but he still did not directly refuse Liu Bei, although the general trend of the world was fixed, but this land of Jingxiang was a place where the scholars were numerous, and even many family talents in the north could not get along in the north, and they were unwilling to bow to Ye Zhao, so a large number of people moved south into Jingzhou, so to speak, although Jingzhou is now in a situation of civil strife between the two sons, but in fact, Jingzhou is the last base camp of the entire corporal class in the world, from this point of view, In fact, it should have been united.

But now that the two sons are in contention, it doesn't matter who will inherit Jingzhou, whether it is Liu Cong or Liu Qi, no matter who is the pastor of Jingzhou, the one who is ultimately in power is actually the person behind them.

Behind Liu Cong is Cai Mao, a member of the Jingzhou clan, and behind Liu Qi is Liu Bei, who has gradually become a trend.

"Is this general trend of the world really irretrievable?" Seeing that Zhuge Liang was silent, Cui Jun finally spoke his heart and looked at Zhuge Liangdao.

"Yes!" Zhuge Liang was silent for a moment, and finally said.

"Oh!" Cui Jun's eyes lit up, looked at Zhuge Liang and said, "Then why didn't Kong Ming offer advice to General Liu?" ”

"If you want to go against the trend, there is only a glimmer of life, and now Jingzhou ...... The state knows that it is. Zhuge Liang smiled bitterly and said: "If you want to compete with Ye Zhao, you must unite the princes of the world to discuss, Jingzhou has an army of 300,000, but they are suffering from each other, if you can't integrate the power of Jingzhou and unite with Cao Sun, this line of vitality will no longer exist!" ”

"In that case, let's choose one of the Lords to serve!" Cui Jun said excitedly: "Kong Ming has the talent of the world, and there are three people to help him, Guangyuan, and Gongwei, so why can't he assist the Ming Lord Kuang to support justice?" ”

"Who is the master?" Zhuge Liang smiled bitterly.

In fact, he is optimistic about Liu Bei, for Liu Bei's life, Zhuge Liang has done research, and his record is ...... Liu Bei is not good, but what Zhuge Liang really values is Liu Bei's defeated and undiscouraged character, Liu Bei's ability is actually not bad, and there are also strategists and fierce generals under his command, but there is a lack of a top strategist like Zhuge Liang to plan for him.

If it weren't for the current situation, Zhuge Liang would probably have voted for Liu Bei a long time ago, but in today's situation, one wrong step is the end of a catastrophe, Cai Mao's side is actually the general trend of Jingzhou, with Zhuge Liang's character, he will never do anything that didn't take me.

"This ......"

Zhuge Liang's question stopped Cui Zhouping, logically speaking, Liu Bei should be the master, but just like Zhuge Liang thought, standing in the position of the family, Cai Mao is on their side, and occupies the general trend.

"Kong Ming, although Cai Mao has a family background, he ...... He is not the leader of the alliance, if he assists Liu Bei, with the ability of you and me, he may help Liu Bei to dominate the land of Jingxiang as soon as possible? Cui Jun asked.

Liu Qi is weak by nature, and Liu Cong is a child, no matter which one it is, with the current situation, it is not suitable to be the lord of Jingzhou, which is definitely not a burden that the two brothers can bear, so Cui Jun did not consider these two people at all.

"Haha, brother, there is really someone here!" Just when Zhuge Liang frowned and thought, the door of the grass house was suddenly kicked open by Zhang Fei, and Liu Bei and the others, who should have left, came back at some point.

"How can you be so rude!?" Although Cui Jun had a good impression of Liu Bei, he couldn't help but feel dissatisfied when he saw Zhang Fei being so rude, and said angrily.

"Don't blame you, sir!" Liu Bei stepped forward with a calm face, took a deep breath, and bowed to the two of them: "If the situation is so dangerous today, if you don't use this method, how can you see Mr.?" ”

As he spoke, he got up and looked at the two, and finally looked at Zhuge Liang and said, "This one must be Mr. Kong Ming!" ”

Zhuge Liang looked at Liu Bei with interest, nodded silently and said, "Liang has seen the general." ”

Liu Bei sighed, and did not mention the matter of eating behind closed doors eight times before, but said with a wry smile: "Originally, since Mr. didn't want to meet, Bei shouldn't be cheeky to come again, but today, there are ministers who hold Your Majesty hostage, and there are traitors who bewitch the people, and prepare a pawn, the affairs of this world should not be prepared to ask, but since Bei is a member of the Han family, and he is entrusted with a heavy burden by the emperor's uncle, I dare not have a moment of slackness. ”

Zhuge Liang was silent for a moment, then sighed, turned his body to the side, stretched out his hand and said: "It's cold, since the general is far away, please give up a drink." ”

When Liu Bei heard this, he was overjoyed, and followed Zhuge Liang into the grass house to sit down, Zhuge Liang boiled a pot of sake for everyone, looked at Liu Bei and said: "The general's sincere heart, Liang doesn't know, but if the general trend is in the north today, we still have a glimmer of life, but now there is a disaster of two sons fighting for power, Liang Zong has the heart to help, such a situation is also powerless!" ”

When Liu Bei heard this, he was slightly stunned, looked at Zhuge Liang and said, "Dare to ask sir, if there is no disaster in Jingzhou today, how can you break the situation?" ”

Zhuge Liang muttered: "Now Ye Zhao sent the general Guan Yu to lead the army to garrison Xinye, which is really a strategy to lure the enemy, called taking the opportunity to attack Jingxiang, in fact, he wants to lead Cao and Sun Erjia to attack, so as to take advantage of the situation to unify the Central Plains. ”

Looking at Liu Bei's nervous expression, Zhuge Liang smiled: "If you want to break it, it is not difficult, if there is no such disaster in the land of Jingxiang, you can take the opportunity to attack and kill Guan Yu, then the leaf thief's original trick will be destroyed in the land of Nanyang, if Ye Zhao does not want Nanyang to lose, he will return to the division to save himself, then Cao Sun can take advantage of the situation to counterattack, then the plan of the leaf thief to unify the Central Plains will be in vain." ”

Although it is now cold, but there is always a time for winter to pass, as long as it survives this time, when the spring flowers bloom, Sun Ce's Jiangdong army will no longer have to worry about the severe cold, when the time comes, Ye Zhao will fall into the situation of fighting on three sides, that is, no matter how powerful Ye Zhao is, it is inevitable to take care of one and lose the other, when the time comes, there is Cao Cao in the Central Plains, Jing Xiang in the south, and Sun Ce in the east.

Although Ye Zhao is the strongest now, as time goes by, the military industry of the princes catches up, and it will be difficult for Ye Zhao to maintain his current advantage.

"Joke!" Liu Bei's eyes lit up when he heard this, but Zhang Fei on the side was unhappy, and said roughly: "Second...... That Guan Yu has the courage of ten thousand people, breaking Chang'an and destroying the Huns, how fierce are the battle achievements, how can you, a rotten Confucian, be defeated lightly? ”

When Zhuge Liang heard this, he just smiled and said: "Although there is the courage of ten thousand people, but if I want to kill him, it is as easy as a hand!" ”

"Ha~" Zhang Fei was angry when he heard this, although he and Guan Yu have now completely parted ways, but for this second brother, Zhang Fei still respects it in his heart, and stood up at the moment, picked up the Zhangba snake spear and said to Zhuge Liang: "Come on, come on, and fight with me for three hundred rounds, let the third master see what kind of ability you have to dare to let go of this wild talk." ”

Zhuge Liang glanced at Zhang Fei and said to Liu Bei with a smile: "Liang is not brave enough to be a horseman!" ”

"Yide, stand down!" Without waiting for Zhang Fei to attack, Liu Bei snorted angrily at Zhang Fei and glared at Zhang Fei fiercely.

Zhang Fei could only turn around and go outside the door to breathe.

"Don't blame me, sir, my third brother is used to being arrogant." Liu Bei looked at Zhuge Liang and smiled.

"This is just Liangzhi's nonsense, with the current situation, if you want to stop Ye Zhao, it is very difficult!" Zhuge Liang shook his head and smiled.

"If it is really as Mr. said...... Liu Bei looked at Zhuge Liang, gritted his teeth and said: "I am willing to persuade the eldest prince to give up Jingzhou Mu and be willing to assist the second son." ”

Cui Jun on the side looked at Liu Bei in surprise when he heard this, this is not only Liu Qi, but also the power that Liu Bei himself has accumulated over the years.

Zhuge Liang looked at Liu Bei, his eyes were also a little distracted, in this case, it is undoubtedly the best choice for one party to withdraw from the battle for power, but he didn't expect that Liu Bei would be so simple, and at the same time, he couldn't help but admire Liu Bei a little more in his heart, it is easy to get power, but it is rare to let go, just for the sake of the overall situation and let go of personal gains and losses, Liu Bei is more than one grade higher than Cai Mao.

"In that case, Liang is willing to try it!" Zhuge Liang got up and bowed to Liu Bei.

"It's not just under it! I am also willing to help Ming Gong! Cui Jun smiled.
