"Liu Xuande!"

The two of them showed a look of surprise, glanced at each other, and Zhang Song said first: "Why did Xiaozhi choose Liu Xuande?" ”

Fa Zheng stroked his hair and said: "Liu Xuande is a hero in the world, and he is known as benevolence and righteousness, and the appeal of this name alone is far from being comparable to Liu Zhang. Moreover, Liu Xuande started from the end of the micro, but he was able to survive in the chaotic war of the princes so far, and he miraculously went from nothing to half of Jingzhou, and his ability can be seen from this, I think that as the lord of Yizhou, he will definitely be able to unite all the forces in Yizhou, so that my Yizhou will no longer be mired in the quagmire of civil strife and cannot extricate himself. ”

That Zhang Song and Fa Zheng are both people of insight, how can Fa Zheng not know what he said, when Fa Zheng said it, both of them smiled slightly.

Fa Zheng was stunned at first, then pointed at the two of them and said with a smile: "It turns out that you have long had a longing for Liu Xuande, so I wasted this saliva in vain." ”

Zhang Song smiled and said: "What's the use of the two of us having this idea, filial piety is the mastermind among us, Zijing and I have always been the only one from you." ”

Fa Zheng shook his hand again and again, and said humbly: "Don't put a high hat on me, my Fa Zheng is just a small county order, your son Qiao Ke is dignified, such a big thing, of course, I still have to listen to you." ”

Meng Da said: "You don't have to be humble if you are filial, the three of us have been close friends for a long time, so there is no need to be polite, with your talent, not to mention the difference between driving, even if it is a general, it is understandable, others don't know, I don't know." ”

Fa Zheng was praised by this, and at this time, he was no longer humble, but just smiled and said nothing.

Zhang Song said: "Since Xiaozhi thinks that Liu Xuande is the master of the auxiliary, then I will no longer hide it, I think that with this person's ability, Fuding Yizhou is only secondary, the key is that this person has always been ambitious and strong, and he is by no means a person who is in a corner, and now he has half of Jingzhou, and we will be able to go north to compete for the world with Cao Ying, if we are assisted by him, we will be able to show our strengths in life, and the name will go down in history." ”

Meng Da also nodded and said: "What Ziqiao said is good, the eldest husband was born in troubled times, and he should be careful about the world, and I also believe that Liu Xuande is the one who can take us to Yizhou and become famous in the world." ”

After the three of them secretly decided to sell Yizhou to Liu Bei, Zhang Song said: "After a while, I will make a statement to Liu Zhang, and invite Liu Bei to Shu on the grounds of dealing with Zhang Lu, and then I will recommend filial piety to you to go to Jingzhou first, and go to see Liu Xuande in person. ”

Fa Zheng nodded and said: "A trip to Jingzhou is indispensable, and now Yizhou is worried about internal and external troubles, I am afraid that it will be difficult to last, and the situation is urgent, so we should act quickly." ”

When the three guys in Xishu were plotting to "sell the lord for glory" in the small black house, in the military palace of Chaisang City, Sun Quan was also discussing with the strategists how to teach this disobedient Liu Bei a lesson.

"Now Liu Bei has stationed heavy troops in all over Jingnan, obviously he doesn't plan to let our army cross, this Liu Bei is so ungrateful, Lone only lent Jingzhou to him for less than a year, he dared to work against Lone, he was really angry!"

Sun Quan scolded Liu Bei for his "ingratitude" there, as if he occupied the moral high ground, completely forgetting that this farce of false ways and annihilation was originally provoked by him.

No one made a sound for the time being, and one of the young generals was the first to stand up and said proudly: "Liu Bei dares to be so arrogant, it is nothing more than relying on his current more soldiers and horses, but he forgot that fighting along the Yangtze River, who can be the opponent of our Jiangdong naval army, I asked the lord to allocate another 10,000 soldiers and horses, with 50,000 elite sailors, Meng and others will take Jingzhou for the lord, so as to eliminate the anger of the lord." ”

The person who made a generous statement was none other than Lü Meng, and because of his outstanding performance in the Battle of Chibi and the siege of Nanjun, this young general who rose from the lower ranks had already won the appreciation and affirmation of the important ministers of Eastern Wu, including Sun Quan. It is also for this reason that in this conflict with Liu Bei, Sun Quan deliberately recalled Lü Meng from the Lukou front line to Chaisang to listen to his opinions, which can be regarded as an expression of his attention to the front-line military.

As soon as Lu Meng, who was strong-blooded, came up, he said that he wanted to destroy Liu Bei, although many people present heard that he had a strategy, but they all showed contempt.

At this time, Wenchen Zhang Zhao stroked Bai Huahua's beard and said in a tone of teaching children: "Ziming, your courage is commendable, but Liu Bei is not so easy to deal with, his strength at this moment is not as good as at the beginning, and it is prudent to start a war with him." ”

Lu Meng said disdainfully: "No matter how strong Liu Bei is at the moment, how can he be stronger than the Cao army during the Battle of Chibi, we can even defeat the Cao army, so why be afraid of Liu Bei." If you don't clean him up at this time, if you let him develop and grow up in time, it will be really difficult to deal with at that time. ”

Sun Quan seemed to see the shadow of the brave and resourceful Zhou Lang from Lu Meng's body, before Zhou Yu died, he was suspicious in every way, at this time the person was gone, only then did he think of the various benefits of others, and sighed every time he thought of it.

Listening to Lu Meng's analysis, Sun Quan nodded again and again, and said: "Liu Bei's ambition has now been undoubtedly exposed, the so-called first strike is strong, what Ziming said is not unreasonable." ”

Zhang Zhao over there was displeased when he heard it, snorted coldly, and said: "Today's Liu Bei is not what it used to be, you must know that when Chibi was in the past, although Cao Jun was prosperous, it was new to Jingzhou, the people's hearts were not stable, and the soldiers were not attached, so there was the defeat of Chibi." Now that Liu Bei is prosperous in Jingzhou, Jingxiang Shimin are all attached to it, if I Jiangdong is attacked, although the military strength is superior, but Jingxiang Shimin will definitely help Liu Bei to resist to the death, and the number of victories and defeats is unpredictable. ”

Zhang Zhao's words extinguished Sun Quan's fighting spirit that had just been instigated by Lu Meng, and he turned his gaze to Lu Su, who had been silent, with a slight resentment in his eyes, and said sullenly: "Zibu is right, Zijing, it was you who advocated lending Jingzhou to Liu Bei, but now Liu Bei turns his face and doesn't recognize people, according to your opinion, how to deal with Lone Dang?" ”

Sun Quan was deducting the basin on Lu Su's body, Lu Su was depressed in his heart, and secretly cried out for himself: "At the beginning, you were bent on clamping down on Gongjin, I just pushed it according to your wishes, but this will push the responsibility on me, really, this doesn't make me Lu Su not a person inside and out." ”

Lu Su had a bitter word in his heart, and in the face of Sun Quan's questioning, he had to pretend to be calm and said: "Lord, Liu Xuande is unwilling to send troops this time, and he also put on a hostile posture, such a move is of course very wrong. But we have only lent Jingzhou to Liu Bei for less than a year, and at this time we suddenly proposed to cross Jingzhou to cut down Shu. ”

Lu Su is not easy to mess with, and pointed out euphemistically that it is obviously you Sun Quan who is uneasy and kind, and he is planning to use the ghost to destroy Jing, don't let me not know.

Sun Quan's dissatisfaction gave Lu Su such a few words in his throat, and he didn't know how to answer for a while.

In fact, in the final analysis, this is just a misunderstanding, as long as the two families communicate well, it will naturally be resolved. Furthermore, Su stealing thinks that the lord's move to cut down Shu is also a little inappropriate, no matter how difficult Shu is, it is unknown whether it can be attacked or not, even if it is captured, there is a Jingzhou in the middle, and it is bound to become an enclave, and whether it can be defended will be a big problem. ”

Lu Su didn't dare to embarrass Sun Quan for too long, and immediately began to build a ladder for Sun Quan.

Sun Quan's emotions calmed down a little after Zhang Zhao and Lu Su's analysis.

Lu Su further said: "Besides, Jiangdong's biggest enemy at present is still Cao Ying, if we start a war with Liu Xuande this time, even if we can defeat Jingzhou, it will be a defeat for both sides. Therefore, the lord should also focus on the overall situation, and this alliance with Liu Xuande is really not the time to break now. ”

Lu Su's big hat was buttoned, and the benefits and disadvantages were analyzed, Sun Quan would really have no confidence, and he pretended to hesitate for a long time before he sighed: "Liu Xuande is unkind, and he can't be unjust, so let's take the overall situation as the priority, and bear with it for the time being." However, Jingzhou was won by my hard work in Jiangdong, even if Liu Xuande borrowed it, how could he always rely on it and not pay it back. ”

Lu Su thought for a while and said, "Su should find an opportunity to go to Jingzhou in person and discuss a proper return date with Liu Xuande." ”

Sun Quan pondered for a long time, and then said reluctantly: "Then Zijing will work hard." ”

Three days later, Sun Quan's envoy came to Jingzhou again, saying that Sun Quan had decided to cancel the plan to cut down Shu on the grounds that Cao's army had moved in Hefei.

Of course, Liu Bei was relieved, but he didn't dare to relax his vigilance, only fearing that Sun Quan was a false strategy, until ten days later, he made a detailed report and determined that there were 40,000 Wu troops stationed in Lukou, and about 20,000 people withdrew with Sun Yu along the river.

It was only at this time that Liu Bei was convinced that Sun Quan had really regressed, and he ordered the lifting of the combat readiness alert.

Seven days after the ――――――――, Liu Bei held a banquet in Jiangling City to celebrate the full moon of Lady Mi to his newly born youngest son, Liu Tai.

forced Sun Quan back, let out a bad breath, and when he saw that the family business was getting better and better, he was happy with his noble son, for Liu Bei, it was simply a happy event one after another.

At the banquet, Liu Bei was of course very interested, and after receiving the congratulations of all the civil and military personnel, he stepped down and drank a glass of every minister present in person.

Seeing Liu Bei walking up to him with a smile, Fang Shao hurriedly raised his glass and got up, and said with a smile: "Congratulations to the lord for getting another little son, I respect the lord for this cup." ”

Liu Bei drank it all with a smile, got closer, and laughed in a low voice: "I can get this son thanks to your credit." ”

Liu Bei came to such a sentence without a clue, but Fang Shao was taken aback.
