A few days later, a shocking event occurred in Changli, the seat of governance in Liaodong, which was enough to make the thirteen states of the Han Dynasty look sideways.

Li Ru, who had been dormant in Liaodong, colluded with Xianbei, the restless elements among the people of the Southern Xiongnu migration, and united with Suotou, the most powerful grassland force in northern Saibei, to conquer Changli City, the seat of Liaodong County, in one fell swoop, and recovered its people, playing the slogan of 'obeying the order to level thieves', and erecting a banner with the word 'Han' on Changli City, which clearly showed that it was to fight against Yuan Shang's court.

The news quickly spread throughout the states and counties, and for a time the princes, scholars, and people of the world all looked sideways, waiting to watch the second great disaster that occurred on Yuan Shang's northeastern border, following the rebellion of Yan Xing, against Yuan Shang's territory.

The first to get the news, is Sun Quan, after knowing that Yuan Shang's rear town was conquered by Li Ru and Tuoba Liwei's rebels, Sun Quan was overjoyed, Liaodong is the hinterland of Yuan Shang's northeast town, and now it is conquered by Tuoba Liwei and Li Ru, the king of the grassland, once they wave their army to the west, the front of the army is pointed directly at Jizhou Yecheng, the danger in that hài is much bigger than the rebellion of Yan Xing, when the time comes Yuan Shang will retreat for the base camp, now Xuchang is new, Zhongzhou is unstable, if Yuan Shang returns to the division to quell the chaos, Dongwu can immediately go north, Or send troops to Xuzhou, or send troops to Huainan, then you can greatly expand the territory, and point the edge of the Eastern Wu soldiers and horses into the Central Plains.

The second person to get the news is Guan Yu, the world's tiger general in Jingzhou!

Guan Yu is sitting in Jingxiang, the dragon is in the tiger, recuperating, its momentum is so strong, the world dare not despise it, at this moment got the information of the Liaodong Rebellion, Guan Yu, who was sitting in Xiangyang, was a little impatient, at this moment he was also waiting, waiting for Yuan Shang to return to Hebei, and immediately go north! Guan Yu's goal and appetite are even greater than Sun Quan's. He has only one goal, that is, to send troops to take Xuchang in one fell swoop! Take the land of the Central Plains and drive Yuan Shang back to Hebei!

The third person to get the news was Liu Bei and Zhuge Liang from Xichuan.

Compared with Guan Yu and Sun Quan's impatience, Zhuge Liang was much calmer......

Xichuan, Chengdu, Liu Bei's mansion.

Liu Bei's current mansion is Liu Zhang's former residence, because Liu Zhang's Taishou Mansion in Chengdu built extremely luxurious, so Liu Bei occupied Xichuan, did not rebuild the mansion. just picked up Liu Zhang's remaining nests, did not work for the people, did not hurt money, did not covet virtual things, but was quite a king.

Today's Liu Bei has never dealt with official business, just a purple robe, by the pond in the mansion, watching the koi in the pond, this look is more than an hour, I don't know that Liu Bei likes fish. However, those who know Liu Bei know that Xuan Degong's heart is not in this pond at the moment.

It wasn't until the next person came to pass the ceremony and said that Zhuge Junshi had come to meet him, that Liu Bei came back to his senses from his contemplation. Then hurriedly Xuan Zhuge Liang came in to see.

When I was young, I saw a lupine scarf, and Kong Ming, who looked like a fairy in the fairy, came to the pond.

Bowing to Liu Bei, Zhuge Liang said with a smile: "The lord is so fascinated by the fish. How happy is leisure? ”

Liu Bei laughed, waved his hand, and said, "Sir, don't cancel it to me!" I'm watching fish here. The prescription that is worried in my heart is true. ”

Zhuge Liang swayed his feather fan, slowly walked to Liu Bei's side, and said: "Come to Dading in Sichuan, the counties are fine, it is a good day for our army to be at ease, how can the lord be worried?" ”

When Liu Bei heard this, he sighed: "Military advisor, why do you knowingly ask...... The land of Liaodong was jointly captured by the national thief traitor Li Ru and the lord of the grassland, Tuoba Liwei, and Yuan Shang's Hebei land was in turmoil. ”

Zhuge smiled slightly and said, "Yuan Shang is in turmoil behind, what does it have to do with the lord?" ”

"Haha, you!" Liu Bei shook his finger and said, "Now that Yuan Shang has conquered Xuchang, subdued Cao Zhi, pacified the Central Plains, unified North China, and greatly increased his power!" It was a great opportunity to be proud of all parties and take advantage of the situation to dominate the world, but there was such a big mess behind him, he must have been angry in his heart...... I am thinking about it, if Yuan Shang returns to Hebei, should he give a military order to Yun Chang, let him wave his army to the north, and take advantage of the opportunity when the Central Plains was initially decided and the people's hearts have never been attached, and take Xuchang in one fell swoop! The edge of Yuan Shang expands the power of our army! ”

Zhuge Liang shook his feather fan, and sighed as he shook it: "The lord really wants to give Yun Chang this military order? ”

Liu Bei was surprised when he heard this, and said, "Isn't this a great time?" ”

Zhuge Liang nodded and said: "On the surface, but it is so, in the eyes of the world, the Liaodong Rebellion may involve most of Yuan Shang's energy, Liang was really excited for a long time when he first got the news, but after thinking about it carefully, I always feel that there is something wrong with this." ”

Liu Bei was surprised when he heard this, and said, "What do you mean?" ”

Zhuge Liang sighed and said: "This is inappropriate, I am afraid that only Liang can see it in the world, but if you think about it carefully, it is indeed not inappropriate, but Liang always faintly feels that there is something wrong." ”

Liu Bei was very humble: "What's wrong, please ask the military advisor for advice?" ”

"Don't you think that Li Ru unites with Tuoba to conquer Liaodong, no matter what their purpose is, isn't it a little too easy? After all, Liaodong is Yuan Shang's northeastern border, even if Li Ru is scheming, even if Tuoba Liwei is the lord of the grassland, but such a light will break Yuan Shang's layout on the border...... Isn't it a bit smooth? ”

Liu Bei thought about it and suddenly smiled.

"The military division is too worried, and it may be the same, but at this moment, the main force of the Chinese army of the Yuan army has just conquered the Central Plains and has not yet returned to the division, and it is reasonable that Hebei's troops are not enough to defend."

Zhuge Liang nodded and said: "Maybe Hebei's defensive strength is insufficient, but Liaodong is too defensive to Tianyu, but it is not comparable to ordinary people!" Although this person's reputation is not as good as Tian and Frustrated, but looking at the means of governing Liaodong over the years, you can know that his talent is not under Tian Feng, Frustration and other famous places, such characters lost the town so quickly, others may not feel anything, but Liang always feels that there is something different. ”

Liu Bei blinked when he heard this, and said, "What do you mean...... Yuan Shang is taking his own turf to lose the layout? This...... That's too nonsense, isn't it? Impossible, impossible! No matter how bold Yuan Shang is, no one can make such a ruthless decision! ”

Zhuge Liang sighed when he heard this: "A person may not be able to make such a determination, but if someone supports it, it will be completely different...... Lord, do you know that in Yuan Shangjun, in addition to Yuan Shang, who is the person who Liang values prevention the most? ”

Liu Bei thought for a while and said, "Except for Yuan Shang, the person who can be valued by the military advisor must be that Tian Feng and Fu Zhi!" ”

Zhuge Liang shook his head and said, "Otherwise, in fact, in addition to Yuan Shang, among the Yuan army, the one who worries Liang the most is Sima Yi!" Since this person joined the Yuan army, although he has no field, he is outstanding, or he is covered by Yuan Shang's exploits, but Liang has discovered that this Sima Yi, among the Yuan army, is the person who can best cater to Yuan Shang's ideas and cooperate with Yuan Shang's tricks! Most of the strategies made by Yuan Shang sometimes do not get the understanding and support of others, but Sima Yi is the only one who can cooperate with him perfectly! Everyone in the world thinks that Sima Yi's current status is very close to Yuan Shang's personal education, but in fact, he is good at calculating Yuan Shang's strategy, but he can hide it every time, and he is not visible under Yuan Shang's light, this person's ability is not worse than Yuan Shang. ”

Speaking of this, Zhuge Liang paused and said: "If Yuan Shang is to design the safety of Liaodong, he may not be able to make this determination, but if Sima Yi is supporting him by his side, with the vicious nature of the two of them, he may not be able to do this earth-shattering thing!" ”

Liu Bei was taken aback when he heard this, and said, "But ...... But what was his purpose in doing this? Besides, if others don't say it, Li Ru and Yuan Shang have a common enmity! Could he have been used by Yuan Shang? ”

Zhuge Liang shook his head and said: "To be honest, these are all Liang guesses, all based on their own assumptions, and there is no empirical evidence, as for whether Li Ru will be used by Yuan Shang, Liang dare not say anything, Yuan Shang uses Liaodong as bait, who he wants to target, Liang is not sure, it may be the lord, it may be Sun Quan, maybe it may be General Guan......"

"Do you make your own assumptions?" Liu Bei smiled bitterly when he heard this, and said, "Strategist, is it possible that with this assumption of yours, you are going to ruin our good opportunity to capture Xuchang and seize the Central Plains?" ”

Zhuge sighed and said, "Lord, Liang advises you to be careful...... It's best not to act lightly until you really want to surface...... After all, it hadn't been a few years since the Yan Xing Rebellion, and Yuan Shang had received such a big setback back back then, didn't he have a long face and let such a monstrous disaster happen in his rear? ”

"This ......" Liu Bei hesitated when he heard this, his eyes flickered brightly and darkly, and the brilliance flickered.

Zhuge Liang saw Liu Bei's hesitation, thought about it carefully, and relied on his own guess to let Liu Bei give up this opportunity, but he always felt in his heart that the Liaodong Rebellion was either Yuan Shang or Sima Yi's trick, and it was inevitable to send troops in vain. Immediately after another dissuasion, Liu Bei finally blocked Liu Bei's intention to let Guan Yu enter the army.

In desperation, Liu Bei finally agreed to Zhuge Liang and stood still for the time being.

After the two chatted for a while, Zhuge Liang left, but not long after he left, Pang Tong hurriedly came to see him.

As soon as they met, Pang Tong finished his salute and opened his mouth and said: "Lord, there is chaos in Liaodong, Yuan Shang's rear is unstable, and the Central Plains has not been fully included in Yuan Shang's rule, this is a good opportunity for Guan Yu to enter the army, what are you waiting for?" ”

Liu Bei saw Pang Tong's eagerness, smiled helplessly, and then said everything Zhuge Liang said to him.

Pang Tong didn't listen to it, and he almost fainted when he heard it.

"Lord, Kong Ming is wrong! If what he said is well-founded, it will be forgotten, but the problem is that these are just his speculations, is it that from now on, if there are fighters, as long as someone guesses that the lord will not be able to send troops? (To be continued......)
