Chapter 168: Preparing for War

The steady faction was headed by Ma Liang, Jiang Wan and others.

Ma Liang snorted coldly: "Although there are less than 50,000 soldiers and horses in Xuzhou on the surface, Lu Bu has implemented the conscription system for several years, and it is completely unknown how many soldiers can be summoned. When the situation is unclear, rashly entering the army, will it not mistake my big man! ”

"Hmph, the opportunity is fleeting, as timid as you, how can my big man recover!"

"Then do you know how many more advanced weapons Lu Bu has, do you want my Han soldiers to die in vain!"

"Even if Lu Bu has more advanced weapons, there are not many of them. My Han and the soldiers and horses of Eastern Wu are enough to gather an army of millions. Such an army rushed straight to Xuzhou, how could Xuzhou defend it? ”

"Huh! Xuzhou is the center of power in the Chinese Kingdom, do you think Lu Bu will not defend. The Wa Kingdom, Yizhou, and Liaodong are now all subdued by Lu Bu. There is sea transportation, and the soldiers and horses of the three places can provide immediate support. Lu Bu is deliberately showing weakness to us, that is, to lead us and the army to attack Xu. And once our army is defeated, Lu Bu can take advantage of the situation and dominate the world. With such resourcefulness, how can you not see clearly! ”

"Hmph, before the war began, you thought you were going to lose. According to what you say, then never fight, it's good to surrender Lu Bu! ”

"You're using strong words!"

……

"Alright, alright!" Seeing that everyone was arguing, Liu Bei hurriedly made a peacemaker and said, "All Aiqing is reasonable, sit down for the time being!" ”

Liu Bei spoke, and everyone with red faces and thick necks sat down one after another.

In this way, Liu Bei couldn't help but ask Zhuge Liang, who had never spoken.

"Kong Ming, what do you think?"

Zhuge Liang is the head of the hundred officials in Bashu, because in Bashu, he is the only prime minister. His attitude is enough to affect the entire Bashu.

And generally speaking, Zhuge Liang will not make a decision lightly. He will also make a strategy suitable for Bashu according to the opinions of his ministers.

When asked, Zhuge Liang, who had been thinking for a long time, exhaled in a deep voice: "This is indeed a good opportunity to send troops, but if this is a deliberate plan by Lu Bu, I am afraid that we will be overwhelmed." The reason why LΓΌ Bu was unable to move south was that his military strength was insufficient, and second, the terrain in the south was complicated. But if our army loses, Lu Bu can take advantage of the situation to counterattack. In this way, I am afraid that we will no longer be able to compete with Lu Bu! ”

In fact, Zhuge Liang also knew that the reason why Lu Bu lacked military strength. The first is that Lu Bu keeps sending troops on expeditions, and the second is because Lu Bu does not want to use foreign troops to fight the Han people. Otherwise, even if he uses a heap, Lu Bu will be able to go south.

As soon as Zhuge Liang said this, the conservative faction bowed their heads one after another, while the radical faction's face was a little gloomy.

Because Zhuge Liang's character is also cautious.

But fighting a war is originally about timing, and the so-called supporting the bold and starving the cowardly.

If you don't fight, how can you make meritorious contributions?

It can be said that the reason why Fazheng Zhang Song is radical is also because he wants to make contributions to himself.

Otherwise, the two would not have easily sold Liu Zhang and took the initiative to join Liu Bei.

It can be said that the current Liu Bei Group is also divided into several factions.

One faction is the original Liu Bei team, such as Guan Yu and Zhang Fei.

The second is the local faction of Bashu, and the third is the Jingzhou faction.

There is no harmony between the various factions, and there are all kinds of contentions. Even the local faction of Bashu is divided into two factions.

Now that Zhuge Liang is in power, where will everyone obey.

Fazheng Zhang Songzheng wanted to open his mouth to refute, but saw Zhuge Liang continue: "But if we miss the opportunity, I'm afraid it will be difficult for us to find such a good opportunity again." Therefore, the minister suggested that while he was vigorous, he would investigate the news of Xuzhou. If it was confirmed that LΓΌ Bu was seriously wounded, he joined forces with Sun Quan and Cao Pi to attack Xuzhou. ”

Saying this, the radicals showed joy again.

At least it shows that Zhuge Liang also wants to fight.

And Zhuge Liang said so, and the steady faction couldn't say anything more.

The power is here with Liu Bei, and they can only follow.

And who Liu Bei trusts the most is not Zhuge Liang. Who told Zhuge Liang to find Jingzhou Bashu for Liu Bei and gain a foothold.

Really.

"Hahahaha, okay, it's up to the prime minister. Pass the order, the whole army is ready to go out! ”

In this way, the entire Shuhan Group is completely a big move.

The same situation is also playing out in Soochow.

There are radical and steady.

And the final result is still as Zhuge Liang suggested, first reorganize the troops.

The most important thing is that Sun Quan also wants to fight.

Why, because there are enough reserves of war materials.

If this is not pulled out to fight, will not this heart be empty?

Although the two military exercises were lost, the military resources used by both sides were very small.

Through several years of reserves, Soochow already had a large amount of military supplies.

And these armaments will rust if they are not used, so it is better to use them.

There is no way, Sun Quan subdued Zhu Yazhou in advance, so that he has nowhere to fight, if he doesn't fight Xuzhou, where else can he fight.

Yizhou is a mountain, and Sun Quan is unwilling to send troops without soldiers to defend him.

In addition to Xuzhou, the only place that can fight is Jingzhou.

Therefore, while the two parties are fighting hard, they are also exploring Xuzhou news in various ways.

Liu Bei is simple here, because he still has a dark line in the palace.

Although he was put on the spot by Lu Bu, he took away the families of many palace maids. But after Liu Bei reacted, he still stopped some.

In this way, these dark lines can be used just in time.

It can be said that which concubine Lu Bu pampered every day, sometimes Liu Bei knows.

And Lu Bu is also helpless, with the current level of science and technology, many things are not as easy to do as he imagined.

Although he knew that there was still a dark tsubaki in the palace, on the contrary, this could also be used.

At this moment, Lu Bu was lying on the bed, wailing and screaming.

Queen Guo couldn't help but laugh: "Husband, you really look like this!" ”

Lu Bu smiled: "If you don't do a full set of acts, where can you deceive people." It's not to brag with you, if you want to be an actor for your husband, you are definitely a powerful person! ”

"Actor, what is this?"

"Ugh!" Lu Bu was speechless, and by accident, he said another term.

Lu Bu had to play haha, he was singing.

When she said this, she was given a blank look by Queen Guo.

is a good emperor, and when he compares it with a play, he is speechless.

Yes, in order to do something like. Lu Bu ordered the whole country to want the 'quicksand' organization.

However, with the token given by Lu Bu, although the quicksand is hidden in the dark, it is completely useless.

Similarly, there are all kinds of trauma medicines in the palace every day, and it is definitely 'incense' floating for hundreds of miles.

Except for his concubines, only a few palace maids learned the truth.

And the news from the outside, of course, can only be conveyed to him by Queen Guo.

You must know that even Pang Tong, Chen Gong and others thought that Lu Bu was really seriously injured.

At this time, Queen Guo also said with a solemn expression: "Husband, Bashu and Dongwu are all reorganizing their troops. It seems that they really want to march in a big way this time! ”

Lu Bu smiled: "I am looking forward to them coming, if I don't collect their military strength first, how can I counterattack." It's just ......"
