Liu Bei's heart warmed, and his gaze at Zhuge Liang was also a lot kinder, when Guan Yu was in Jingzhou, he secretly said bad things about Zhuge Liang, of course, this kind of news was found by Liu Bei's people, no matter how much he trusted Zhuge Liang, after all, he had to leave some back.

"Kong Ming doesn't need to blame himself, if it weren't for the fact that General Ben raised troops to attack Yizhou, which caused Jingzhou to be empty, there would be no today." Liu Bei said.

Zhuge Liang's heart sighed, this is the main reason for the loss of Jingzhou, the elite of the Jingzhou army came to Yizhou with Liu Bei, and wanted to repel the Cao army with 100,000 troops with a weak force, which is a very difficult thing in itself, Zhuge Liang can persist hard, and finally let Liu Qi arrive in Yizhou smoothly, which is already an extremely remarkable thing.

At that time, in Jingzhou, it was Guan Yu who secretly constrained Zhuge Liang's orders, in the army, Guan Yu had a high prestige, after all, Guan Yu was Liu Bei's sworn brother, even though Zhuge Liang was the main general in the army on the surface, but in private, those who obeyed Guan Yu's orders occupied the majority, Guan Yu was a military general, even if Zhuge Liang's strategy was outstanding, he was just a literati, and the literati commanded the soldiers in the army, which would always give people a feeling of resistance.

"Kong Ming recuperates from his injuries with peace of mind, and after Kong Ming's injuries heal, he will assist the general to pacify Yizhou." Liu Bei said.

"Whoa." Zhuge Liang arched his hand, and his expression couldn't hide his excitement.

seems to be very satisfied with Zhuge Liang's performance so far, Liu Bei's face is full of smiles, what he needs is the gratitude of his subordinates to him, if Zhuge Liang's influence is too great, it will always give Liu Bei a feeling of unease.

"My lord, from the perspective of my subordinates, it is very likely that the assassination in Yizhou was made by Chang'an." Zhuge Liang said.

Liu Bei was shocked, the investigation in the past two days, did not get much useful news at all, these assassins seemed to have disappeared out of thin air in the city, and the inventory of the assassins made the soldiers and civilians in the city panic, Liu Bei knew that this was not a way, he could only open the city gate and let the people enter and exit freely, but the intensity of the investigation was several times stricter than before, and the soldiers in the army naturally did not dare to neglect their duties at such a time.

"Let's talk about it in detail." Liu Bei said.

Zhuge Liang sorted out his thoughts and said: "Lord, since the arrival of the saint in Yizhou, Yizhou is still stable, although the family is fighting openly and secretly for the sake of interests, but it will not do such a shoddy thing as assassination, if it is said that the Jingzhou family secretly assassinated Fa Zheng, the assassination of his subordinates happened on the same night, didn't the lord feel that this matter was a coincidence, the families of the two sides are secretly discussing the matter of assassination, unless it is the assassin Xiaozhi and the assassin under the assassin, it is the same people." ”

"If you ask the princes, who is the best at assassination, it is the Marquis of Jin, according to the news from the detailed work, there are three such teams under the command of the Marquis of Jin, specifically responsible for assassination, when the princes' army joined forces to attack Huguan, the assassins under the command of the Marquis of Jin had assassinated the generals in the princes' army, so that the generals in the princes' army were panicked, and there were very few in the princes' army who could really kill these assassins."

Liu Bei showed a sudden expression, "Kong Ming, if you say so, does the Marquis of Jin have the intention of attacking Yizhou?" ”

Zhuge Liang shook his head, "No, and now the Marquis of Jin has just pacified Qingzhou, eliminated Yuan Shao, the troops are exhausted, and Yizhou is dangerous, even if the soldiers and horses under the command of the Marquis of Jin are strong, they will not attack Yizhou at such a time, but he can order the assassins under his command to take action, so that Yizhou is in turmoil, and the Marquis of Jin said in the newspaper that he will choose a day to be the king, this is the ambition of the wolf, and the saint named him the Duke of Jin and is not satisfied, but the Marquis of Jin is worried about the situation in Yizhou, after the lord will pacify Yizhou, it will inevitably threaten the safety of Chang'an, Now Chang'an is regarded as the most important place under Lu Bu's rule, and if Yizhou can be plunged into turmoil, the Marquis of Jin can obtain more benefits. ”

"Fortunately, there is Kong Ming on the side to mention it, otherwise, wouldn't it make Yizhou even more turbulent." Liu Bei said.

"My lord, on the night of the assassination, I'm afraid these assassins have already left." Zhuge Liang said.

"Fang Cai Kong Mingyan and the Marquis of Jin have three assassin teams?" Liu Bei said.

Zhuge Liang said slowly: "The subordinates also accidentally probed the news when they were in Jingzhou, the three assassin teams under the command of the Marquis of Jin all have great origins, one of them is known as the Flying Eagle, which is an extremely powerful existence on the battlefield.

The flying eagle soldiers are extremely loyal to the Marquis of Jin, the second is the former Han Emperor Wang Yue after taking refuge in Lu Bu after training, recruiting the chivalrous on the rivers and lakes, Wang Yue is very famous in the rivers and lakes, after learning the news that Wang Yue served under the command of the Marquis of Jin, the chivalrous guests from all over the country have gone, Wang Yue selected the elite from them, and trained them, the shadow guard is best at assassination, when Sun Ce met the assassin in Jiangdong, it was Wang Yue who led the people to save Sun Ce, it is said that the Marquis of Jin trained the shadow guard, the most important thing is to deal with the power of the black ice platform. ”

"Black Ice Terrace?" Liu Bei looked puzzled.

"The Black Ice Platform is the organization responsible for investigating intelligence and assassination in the Qin State in the past, and the subordinates even suspect that these people are Qin people, after the Marquis of Jin has encountered assassins outside Xiangyang City, and has also encountered assassins in Jinyang, these assassins are the people of the Black Ice Platform, the Black Ice Platform is for some reason, and the Jin Hou has subdued, and now the Black Ice Platform has become an extremely powerful existence under the command of the Marquis of Jin."

Liu Bei was silent when he heard this, just the team responsible for investigating intelligence and assassination could reach three, and at this point, the gap between him and Lu Bu was so big.

"Kong Ming, what do you think if our side also trains such a team to investigate intelligence and assassinate?" Liu Bei asked.

Zhuge Liang said: "If you form such a team, the requirements for blades need to be sophisticated, and my subordinates heard that the three teams under the command of the Marquis of Jin use all blades made of 100 steel, and the strong crossbows they use can reach more than one hundred and ten steps in range. ”

Liu Bei's face was bitter, this is the gap brought about by the heritage, Lu Bu occupies Bingzhou and other places, although Yizhou is rich, but there is still a big gap compared with Lu Bu, just like a blade forged by 100 steel, with the level of craftsmen in Yizhou today, it is extremely difficult to forge a blade of 100 steel, and if you buy it from Chang'an, it will be a big expense.
