After returning to Xinye, Liu Bei began to reorganize the army, and the first one wanted to take Nanyang County.

Seeing that Liu Bei had such a strong strength in Xinye, Liu Qi couldn't help but be speechless, I'm afraid that in the entire Jingzhou, there is no county and county strength that can catch up with Liu Bei, right?

Liu Bei's army, the soldiers are elite, and the battle armor is also very strong, the only thing lacking is the war horse, the number of cavalry is pitiful, and the elite cavalry is even less! Even Wei Yan's mount was just an ordinary war horse.

"Lord, the matter of Nanyang County, don't be in a hurry, we should let the eldest prince persuade to surrender first, if these guards are on Liu Biao's old feelings, maybe they can surrender without a fight, in that case, we can save a lot of soldier resources!" Zhuge Liang said.

"Hmmm! This matter still needs to trouble the eldest son! Liu Bei nodded, and then turned his head to Liu Qi, who was in a daze.

"Huh? Not...... No problem, I'll take care of that! Liu Qi patted his chest and reassured.

"Lord, we can divide the soldiers into two ways, now we have more than 100,000 soldiers and horses, although some are newly recruited, but it should be no problem to defend the city, so we can use 50,000 soldiers and horses to go to Nanyang County, and then send 50,000 soldiers and horses to take Nanxiang County!" Zhuge Liang said, "The guards of Nanxiang County are very weak, let the second general go, you should be able to directly take Nanxiang County!" ”

"Good! Then follow what Kong Ming said! Liu Bei nodded, for Zhuge Liang's words, he chose to believe unconditionally, this is also Liu Bei's cleverness in employing people, as long as he trusts the person, he can trust without reservation, this courage is also very human can have!

"Thank you for your trust, Liang will live up to the trust of your lord!" Zhuge Liang could naturally feel that Liu Bei was trusting him by doing this, so he bowed deeply to Liu Bei.

"Hehe, Kong Ming doesn't need to be polite, Bei just wants Kong Ming to know, and Bei will fully trust Mr. no matter when!" Liu Bei helped Zhuge Liang up and said with a smile.

"Thank you, my lord!" Zhuge Liang said again, and at the same time, he also secretly made up his mind in his heart that he must help Liu Bei dominate the world, so as to live up to Liu Bei's trust in him!

Liu Bei didn't say much, and directly ordered him to personally lead a road of soldiers and horses to the northeast to take Nanyang, and the other way of soldiers and horses was led by Wei Yan to go to the northwest to take Nanxiang.

Of course, Liu Bei still left Chen Gong and Chen Zhi to guard Xinye, poor Chen Gong turned out to be just a housekeeper for Liu Bei!

As for Shamoke, as soon as he heard that there was going to be a war, he became excited, begging his eldest brother, wanting Liu Bei to take him away, Liu Bei was helpless, for his third brother, he loved and hated, what he loved was his armed force, and he was brave enough to be a husband! What I hate is Shamoke's character, reckless and belligerent, and he is completely a battle maniac!

However, Zhuge Liang said that he would bring the three generals in this battle, and there would be some trouble! So, Liu Bei finally chose to bring Shamoke! This can't help but make Shamoke's dissatisfaction with Zhuge Liang a little less.

Shamoke, like his second brother, was very dissatisfied with Zhuge Liang's previous arrogance, and even asked their three brothers to invite him three times! It's really arrogant, does he really have that legendary ability to defy the sky? He and Wei Yan didn't believe it, if Liu Bei hadn't tried his best to stop him and worship Zhuge Liang as a god, Shamoke would have wanted to beat Zhuge Liang hard a long time ago!

But this time, it seems that Zhuge Liang helped him speak, and it was really beyond his expectations, if Zhuge Liang can always follow his wishes, it doesn't seem to be impossible?

Of course, this is just what Shamoke thinks about casually in his heart, if he really says it, he will not be repaired by Liu Bei?

However, when Liu Bei led the troops to Nanyang City, he felt that something was wrong, that is, why was the gate of Nanyang City closed, and the soldiers patrolling the city were very vigilant, as if they knew that they were coming!

"What's going on?" Liu Bei couldn't help but be a little puzzled, could it be that someone had notified the guards in advance, saying that he Liu Bei was going to attack the city?

"I'm afraid our whereabouts will be exposed!" Zhuge Liang sighed, and there was a hint of worry in his tone.

"This ......" Liu Bei couldn't say, why?

"Lord, let the eldest prince try it first, if it doesn't work, we can only attack!" Zhuge Liang said.

"Hmm!" Liu Bei nodded, and then turned his head to Liu Qi on the side, "Eldest son, I still have to trouble you in this matter!" ”

"Uncle rest assured, Liu Qi understands what to do." Liu Qi nodded, and then rode his horse to the city.

Liu Qi shouted loudly: "The guards in the city listen, I am Liu Qi, my father Liu Biao passed on the position of Jingzhou to me, do you want to disobey your father's wishes?" ”

"Yo, it turned out to be our eldest son?" At this time, the guards in the city stood up, glanced at Liu Qi from a high height, and then said a little jokingly, "I heard that the lord passed this Jingzhou to Liu Cong's second son, not the eldest son!" I don't know why the eldest prince said what he just said? ”

"This ......" Liu Qi was speechless for a while, and he didn't know what to say at all, as if it was really like what the guard said, because of the relationship of that letter, Liu Biao seemed to have passed Jingzhou to Liu Cong, not him Liu Qi!

"Hahaha, let's go back, if the eldest prince insists on opening the city gate to his subordinates, it's okay, but only the eldest prince can enter, those soldiers and horses behind the eldest prince? Don't! The guards were sonorous, and they were not afraid of Liu Bei and his 50,000 soldiers and horses.

"You're ......!" Seeing that something had failed, Liu Qi glanced at the guard with hatred, and then rode back to the formation, "Uncle, you also heard what you said just now, this guard refuses to submit to us!" ”

"How's that okay?" Liu Bei was surprised and flustered, could it be that this Cai Mao was really so powerful that he notified the Nanyang guards in advance?

"This Liang is not easy to control, then Cai Mao may have notified this guard, if this is really the case, then we will be in trouble, and the second general's side will not be much better!" Zhuge Liang said with a sigh.

"What's wrong, let me go on the old sand, I will definitely be able to climb to the top of the city and take off the head of the guard for the eldest brother!" Shamoke was very disdainful, and said angrily.

"Three generals, don't be impatient, in order to reduce losses, we still think about it in the long run!" Zhuge Liang smiled slightly, and didn't say anything about Shamoke.

"What's there to think about in the long run?" Shamoke was a little dissatisfied with Zhuge Liang's words, in his opinion, such a city, it would be good to send troops directly to capture it, how could there be so many things?

"Third brother!" Liu Bei glared at Shamoke dissatisfied.

"Oh!" There was no need for Liu Bei to say anything, Shamoke obediently closed his mouth.
