There is a way to show only when you meet soldiers, and it is unreasonable. In the face of Zhang Fei, whose force value is much higher than his own, even Mr. Wolong, who is almost a demon with a lot of wisdom, has no choice. And what makes Zhuge Liang feel even more helpless is that this Fei's face is too thick, and pretending to be stupid is even better.

Liu Bei was worried that he wouldn't be able to think about it, so he specially told Zhang Fei to stare at Zhuge Liang these days, but Liu Bei didn't let Zhang Fei and Zhuge Liang go in pairs, Zhuge Liang went wherever Zhang Fei went, even if it was a thatched house, Zhang Fei had to watch from the side, not to mention the trivial matter of eating and living together.

"Third General, I promise you, I will never be unable to think about it, please let me sleep alone tonight?" Zhuge Liang assured Zhang Fei with a depressed face.

"Oh, military advisor, my eldest brother has explained, staring at the military advisor these days, lest you can't think about it. If you don't want to sleep with my old Zhang, then I will build another bed next to you. ”

"Does it make a difference? Your old man's snoring is so loud that there is no difference between sleeping in a bed and sleeping in a room? Zhuge Liang scolded in his heart when he heard this.

Seeing that Zhang Fei's oil and salt didn't make sense, Zhuge Liang sighed helplessly, lowered his head and walked out, Zhang Fei saw it and hurriedly asked, "Where is the military division?" ”

"Go find the lord."

"Oh, military advisor, don't you want to talk to my eldest brother again, right? Strategist, my eldest brother's temper is not good, if you really anger him, I don't dare to protect you. When Zhang Fei heard this, he hurriedly stopped Zhuge Liang and persuaded.

"I'm going to ask the Lord to accept you demon!" Zhuge Liang pushed Zhang Fei away angrily, and walked out. Zhang Fei was stunned for a moment, then reacted, and unhappily chased after him and asked, "Military advisor, why did I become a demon?" ”

“…… You're not a demon, I'm done. Zhuge Liang really didn't have a problem with Zhang Fei, who wanted to gag, and when he saw Zhang Fei entangled again, he hurriedly quickened his pace and walked out.

"No, we have to figure it out, why did I become a demon?" Zhang Fei grabbed Zhuge Liang and shouted.

"You're not, I'm here, let go."

"Yide, don't be rude!" Just when Zhuge Liang couldn't get rid of Zhang Fei, Liu Bei's voice came like a heavenly sound, Zhang Fei heard the words and let go, but Zhuge Liang didn't expect Zhang Fei to suddenly let go, he was trying to break free of Zhang Fei's pull, Zhang Fei let go, Zhuge Liang immediately lost his balance, fortunately Liu Bei stepped forward in time to support Zhuge Liang, which did not make Zhuge Liang ugly.

"Strategist, it's okay." Liu Bei asked with concern.

“…… There is a labor lord. Zhuge Liang stood and thanked Liu Bei.

Hearing that Zhuge Liang also called himself the lord, Liu Bei's heart was a little calm, he was afraid that Zhuge Liang would part ways with him from now on. Liu Bei has had enough of the hardships of not having a mastermind around him in his life, and he thought that he had been in the limelight for a while, but because of the lack of people around him who could guide him and plan for the future, his rise was like a flash in the pan. If Zhuge Liang had advised him when he was fighting for Jiangdong with Sun Ce, he would not have been so miserable.

The future of Jiaozhou is inseparable from Zhuge Liang's strategy, Liu Bei does not want Zhuge Liang to give up himself because of his "lack of progress", which is why Zhuge Liang was reluctant to kill him when he couldn't get off the stage in front of him. This time, Liu Bei knew in his heart that he asked his third brother Zhang Fei to follow Zhuge Liang these days, one is to prevent Zhuge Liang from thinking about finding a short-term view, and the other is to use Zhang Fei to polish Zhuge Liang's temperament.

Liu Bei has a deep understanding of Zhang Fei's ability to mess around, and this time Liu Bei also rushed to the doctor, with the mentality of giving it a try, and the result surprised Liu Bei. Yide was too powerful, and after only a few days, Zhuge Liang was forced to ask for help.

Zhuge Liang softened. At the beginning, when it was determined that Liu Bei really had a corner of the mind, Zhuge Liang was indeed disappointed, and even a little disheartened. But in the next few days when he was followed by Zhang Fei, Zhuge Liang only had to think about it a little seriously, and he could understand why Liu Bei became what he is now.

In good conscience, the strength of the imperial court is no longer something that can be competed with only by the combined efforts of Liu Bei, Sun Quan, and Yuan Xi. Hebei Yuan Xi still has millions of people in Hebei to lay the foundation, and Jiangdong Sun Quan also has the Yangtze River natural danger as a screen, but what does Jingnan Liu Bei rely on? didn't take Bashu, just relying on the resources of Jingnan, let alone resisting the imperial court, just Jingbei plus Bashu was no longer something that Liu Bei could afford.

Sun and Liu married and resisted the imperial court. It sounds like that, but don't take it seriously. Thinking about it, Sun Quan can even do it for the position of the lord of Jiangdong, if Jing Nan is in big trouble, Sun Quan will save himself first, and it is not strange that he will betray Jing Nan at that time.

His own strength was insufficient, and he did not succeed in seizing Bashu as the foundation, Liu Bei had no second way to go except to develop southward. And the farther away from the Central Plains, the heavier the mind will be in a corner of peace.

Liu Bei didn't think about returning to the imperial court, maybe he still had the intention of reviving the Han when he first started the army, but as the years passed, the ambitions of his youth had long been abandoned by Liu Bei. In Liu Bei's eyes at the moment, he only has his own great cause, and when he saw that it was difficult to succeed, he retreated to the second best thing, wanting to be king in a foreign land. It's just that Liu Bei forgot one thing, that is, whether Liu Xie, the son of the Han Dynasty, would tolerate him in this Jiaozhou.

Jiaozhou is indeed far away from the center of the imperial court, but Jiaozhou is also one of the thirteen states of the Han Dynasty, not to mention that Liu Xie came from later generations, and he was very disgusted with those small countries in later generations who did not have much ability but did things all the time.

Under the whole world, it is not the king's land, and the shore of the land is not the king's minister. On the world map drawn by Liu Xie with the memory of later generations in the collection of the Han Imperial Palace, Jiaozhou, where Liu Bei is located, and even many places that continue to the south, have been included in the future territory of the Han Dynasty by Liu Xie.

In Liu Xie's plan, the future Han will go east to Japan, west to India, south to Indonesia, north to Russia, across the whole of Asia, adjacent to the United States and Europe, if it were not for the lack of convenient transportation at this time, Liu Xie even fantasized about dominating the world. Of course, a plan is a plan, and whether it can be achieved or not is still two words, but it is always better to have a lofty goal.

Liu Bei didn't know that Liu Xie's ambition was so big, in his opinion, he had now given up on the Central Plains, and he wanted to be in a corner of peace, and the imperial court would always leave a way for himself to live. But this was just Liu Bei's wishful thinking, he did not have any communication with the imperial court, so when the iron hooves of the Han Dynasty came to the door, Liu Bei was extremely angry. Of course, that's a story for later. At present, Liu Bei is still holding unrealistic ideas, trying to continue to build his own kingdom in Jiaozhou.

Koto Moling

Compared with Liu Bei, who has illusions, Sun Quan is more pragmatic. After Lü Meng led the navy to return to Jiangdong in a gloomy manner, Sun Quan began to draw troops to form the Linhai Sea Army, even if he could not take the initiative to attack, but the necessary defense was still needed. While Liu Bei vigorously developed Jiaozhou, Sun Quan also began to set his sights on Yizhou overseas.

Sun Quan was also not easy, the imperial court was powerful, and basically cut off the idea of Jiangdong developing to the north or west. The only two directions left for the development of Jiangdong are the east and south. Originally, Sun Quan wanted to develop southward, but Liu Bei took the lead in occupying Jiaozhou, which also broke Sun Quan's idea of developing southward.

To the east of the sea is Yizhou, which is the island of Taiwan in later generations. It stands to reason that the development of Yizhou is also profitable, but since Sun Ce and Zhou Yu formed a navy, the security of Yizhou has become a problem, and the development of Yizhou has been slowed down under the premise that the Jiangdong Navy can ensure the safety of Yizhou.

Sometimes Sun Quan really envies Yuan Xi in Hebei, at least Hebei doesn't need to worry about where to develop in a short period of time. As long as the west and south sides adjacent to the imperial court are guarded, the rest is Hebei's own choice. And Jiangdong, after the development of Yizhou was blocked, Sun Quan had to set his sights on the south again.

Take the initiative to find trouble with the court? Sun Quan didn't dare. As the saying goes, pick persimmons and pick up soft pinching, and now in Sun Quan's eyes, Liu Bei of Jiaozhou is a soft persimmon. Compared with Liu Bei, Sun Quan is still more confident in himself. Just as Zhuge Liang worried, Sun Quan didn't take the marriage of the two families seriously at all, and the two families had to work together in the fight against the imperial court, but in the process of their own development, it was up to their own abilities.

Thinking that Jiaozhou did not belong to Liu Bei, and when Sun Ce was still the lord of Jiangdong, he once sent people to make friends with the Jiaozhou scholars, hoping that the soldiers could not be tempted to take the initiative to come and join them. In fact, the scholar family was also very moved by Sun Ce's overtures, but unexpectedly Liu Bei intervened, Sun Quan had just seized the throne at that time, and was busy grabbing the class and seizing power, so he had no time to compete with Liu Bei for Jiaozhou, and when he finally settled the interior, Liu Bei also gained a firm foothold in Jiaozhou.

Sun Quan thought that Liu Bei's focus was still on running Jingnan, and in order to fight against the imperial court in the future, he also took the daughter of a clan, but he didn't want Liu Bei to basically ignore the development of Jingnan in the past two years, but the main business was Jiaozhou. When the Shi family occupied Jiaozhou, its influence was only Hepu, Panyu, and the South China Sea, and after Liu Bei seized Jiaozhou, now the entire Jiaozhou has become Liu Bei's world.

The emotions of envy, jealousy and hatred arose spontaneously in Sun Quan's heart. In Sun Quan's heart, everything Liu Bei gained in Jiaozhou at this time should have belonged to him, and Liu Bei took advantage of the danger of others to grab food, this kind of behavior is despicable, and he will be retaliated against by others.

Seeing that no one stood up for him, Sun Quan was ready to take matters into his own hands. There are no eternal friends, only eternal interests. Sun Quan's eyes were red, so he wanted to snatch Liu Bei's Jiaozhou, as for whether this was against morality, Sun Quan didn't care. It's just that the division is unknown, and Sun Quan needs a reason to send troops in a grand manner.

The emblem of the Jiaozhou scholar family is a trump card for Sun Quan to attack Jiaozhou. When Liu Bei took Jiaozhou from the Shi family, he did not adopt a pacifying strategy for the Shi family, which had occupied Jiaozhou for many years, but chose a method once and for all to cut the grass and eradicate the roots. It's just that there is no endless road, and Shi Hui, the second son of the Shi family, happened not to be in Jiaozhou at that time, but went to Jiangdong as an envoy of the Shi family, hoping to persuade Jiangdong to send troops to help the Shi family resist Liu Bei. As a result, Jiangdong's reinforcements had not yet arrived, and the scholars who stayed in Jiaozhou asked Liu Bei to cut off his head.

After the Shihui family died, he secretly sneaked back to Jiaozhou, and summoned the old department to secretly confront Liu Bei. As the old saying goes, people go to tea and cool, and the influence of the Shi family in Jiaozhou is indeed big enough, but as Liu Bei began to govern in Jiaozhou, the influence of the Shi family began to gradually decrease. Others also have to live, and it is impossible to even live their own lives in order to avenge an outdated family.

At first, Shihui was able to ambush Liu Beijun with the connections left by his family, but as time went by, Shihui's range of activities became smaller and smaller, and when Sun Quan reached out to Shihui, Shihui was almost exhausted. In this case, of course, Shihui is not qualified to pick the fat and the thin, and he has to do whatever Sun Quan asks him to do.

With Shihui's wonderful "performance" in Moling, Sun Quan was furious, and announced in public that he would send troops to seek justice for Liu Bei, who had taken away the inheritance and killed them all. In fact, everyone who can watch this play knows in their hearts that Sun Quan's decision to send troops is not to seek justice for the Shi family, but to look at the wealth of Jiaozhou. However, this matter is good for everyone, so everyone tacitly cooperated with Sun Quan in this play.

said that he wanted to send troops to teach Liu Bei a lesson, but Sun Quan did not send troops immediately, but decided to salute first and then send envoys first, and put forward Jiangdong's conditions, if Liu Bei refused to agree, then he would send troops. However, at the same time as sending envoys, Jiangdong's men and horses also began to mobilize.

Jiangdong is located in a remote area, and the number of Han people is insufficient, so recruiting troops has become the number one problem in Jiangdong. In order to solve this problem, Sun Ce originally hit the idea on the Shanyue people. In order to increase the enthusiasm of the generals for the conquest of Shanyue, Sun Ce allowed the generals to recruit private soldiers, but all captured Shanyue people could be absorbed by the generals at will, and Jiangdong gave money and food in proportion. In this way, the enthusiasm of the generals was mobilized.

On the side of the Han court, Liu Xie had extremely strict restrictions on the number of private soldiers raised by each general, and the number of private soldiers was divided according to the level of official positions, but it could not exceed 100 people. But in Jiangdong, starting with five hundred, Jiangdong generals like Lü Meng, Jiang Qin, and Ding Feng each had thousands of their own private soldiers under their hands.

And the person who has the largest number of private soldiers in Jiangdong is He Qi, he has been in Huiji to conquer Shanyue since Sun Ce issued this order, and the number of private soldiers belonging to the He family has reached 20,000, which can be said to account for one-third of the entire army in Jiangdong.

This is also the reason why Sun Quan dared to kill Gao Chong but did not dare to move He Qi easily. The private soldiers are loyal to their respective family masters, and once something happens to He Qi, then Jiangdong will fall into civil strife. Don't look at the people of He Qi at this time, but the He family army is still firmly in the hands of the He family. He Qi is not there, but his sons He Da and He Jing are still there.

However, the He family army is also a little difficult now, and if they want to maintain this large number of private soldiers, the amount of money and food required is also huge. In the past, the He family could maintain military supplies by fighting to support the war, but after Sun Quan seized the position of the lord of Jiangdong, in order to force He Qi to bow his head to him, he handed over the task of conquering Shanyue to Lu Meng, Ding Feng, Jiang Qin and other cronies, as for the He family's army, it could only stand aside.

Sitting and eating empty, the only way for He Jiajun to get out of the current predicament is for He Qi to bow to Sun Quan. And He Qi is not a person who eats the ancients, compared with the high-ranking "foolish loyalty", He Qi's personality is more sleek, or more pragmatic.

In order to show his trust in He Qi, Sun Quan asked He Qi to return to Huiji to personally lead the army.

……

"I've never seen anyone so brazen!" Facing Lu Fan, the envoy sent by Sun Quan to declare war, he was scolded by Liu Bei, who was trembling with anger. Fortunately, Sun Quan was not here at this time, otherwise Liu Bei would have eaten Sun Quan raw without seasoning.

"Brother, if Sun Quan Xiao'er dares to send troops here, I will let them have no return!" Zhang Fei also assured Liu Bei loudly.

"Liu Yuanjun thinks twice, there is a way that it is better to settle the grievances than to settle them, as long as you are willing to give up Nanhai County as the habitat of the scholars, my lord is not willing to lightly start the sword soldiers." Lu Fan persuaded unhurriedly.

"Whew!" It's a pity that Liu Bei didn't appreciate it at all, and spit back.

Zhuge Liang on the side didn't speak until he saw that Liu Bei couldn't help but draw his sword and hack that Lu Fan to death, so he opened his mouth to dissuade him: "The lord is slow, let your subordinates ask the envoy a question." ”

Liu Bei gave Zhuge Liang face, glared at Lu Fan and did not make any more moves, Zhuge Liang ignored Lu Fan's grateful gaze, and asked in a deep voice: "Your envoy, Jiangdong asked my lord for Nanhai County in the name of the scholar family this time, have you ever considered the consequences of such an action?" ”

"What does Mr. Zhuge mean by this?"

"Hmph...... If Jiangdong thought that he could independently resist the threat from the imperial court, the two families would break their alliance. If you want Nanhai County, let him Sun Quan personally try it. It's just that whatever the consequences are, they are all Jiangdong's responsibility, and they have nothing to do with my lord. ”

“…… Mr. Zhuge said seriously, this time my lord was also helpless, the Shi family was friendly with Jiangdong back then, and even made an offensive and defensive covenant. Liu Yuanjun took it without telling him, this book is nothing, it just depends on his ability. It's just that I shouldn't have killed the full door of the Shi family, which makes it difficult for my lord to give an explanation to the Shi family. ”

"What nonsense? What is Sun Quan'er's idea, do you really think Lao Tzu doesn't know? Liu Bei stretched out his hand to stop Zhuge Liang, who was about to argue with Lu Fan, and said to Lu Fan in a cold voice: "Go back and tell Sun Quan that if you want Nanhai County, let him take it personally, don't talk about those useless things." Yide, send me off! ”

"Okay." Zhang Fei agreed, got up and said to Lu Fan: "Honorable envoy, please." ”
