"Zijing, is this news reliable? Sima Fang is not Cao Cao, nor Dong Zhuo, he does not have the strong appeal of Dong Zhuo and Cao Cao in the army, and wants to monopolize power, isn't this asking for trouble? ”

After a moment of silence, Sun Gan's question broke the cold field and asked everyone's confusion, and Liu Bei and Zhuge Jin also looked at Lu Su.

Lu Su smiled slightly, and said unhurriedly: "I don't know about this, I just got such a piece of information in the next, as for whether it is true or not, you have to judge for yourself." ”

"Hehe, Zijing said and laughed, don't you judge your lord?" Sun Qian was very disappreciative in his heart, and asked with a smile in his mouth.

"Of course there is, but after I said it below, it will inevitably affect your judgment, so why don't you talk about it later?"

Lu Su was still smiling, and seeing his unhurried appearance, Sun Qian felt a little angry in his heart.

Pang Yuan smiled secretly, is this a provocation and test? I wonder if Liu Bei can correctly analyze the intelligence, and can he see what Cao Cao wants to do behind the scenes? This is too underestimated Liu Bei and himself.

"My lord, most of this news is fake, but if you really want to analyze it carefully, Sima Fang really did it, and there will be no problem."

Sun Qian looked at Pang Yuan and asked in surprise, "Oh? What do you mean by that? ”

Pang Yuan's statement was a little strange, and Liu Bei and Zhuge Jin were also puzzled.

"Lord Sun. In the following, it is said that this news is fake, and it is not Sima Fang who benefits from this news in the end. It's Cao Cao, so most of this news was released by Cao Cao, in order to drive a wedge between our army and Sima Fang, and when necessary, say that Sima Fang will attack our army from behind, no, there are also Huangfu Song and Gongsun Zhan, if Han Sui is counted. Then we are also surrounded by enemies on all sides, and the trick of encirclement and counter-encirclement1

Pang Yuan said slowly and clearly, his eyes were shining, as if he could see through all the fog, and he was full of firm confidence, which made Sun Qian feel ashamed of himself, looking at the young Zhuge Jin and Pang Yuan. Sun Qian couldn't help but feel a little lost in his heart.

Liu Bei heard it in a cold sweat, if it was for Cao Cao, he would really be in big trouble, it seems that what Lu Su said just now is by no means alarmist!

Zhuge Jin thought for a while, nodded and said, "Fuqing, then you said that 'it is possible for Sima Fang to do this'." What does this mean? ”

Although Sima Fang does not have a strong foundation like Dong Zhuo and Cao Cao, Sima Fang is good at balancing the interests of all parties. Thinking that he was able to balance the intricate interests of Guanzhong was the only two dizzy in this case, Sima Fang united military forces and Kwantung officials. It is entirely feasible to divide and suppress the Guanzhong clan together, and now that the Guanzhong clan has basically lost the support of the military, and because of the dissatisfaction of the military and Kwantung officials due to the excessive occupation of resources, it is most feasible for these Guanzhong clans to make some concessions in order to protect themselves. In fact, Sima Fang is already doing this, but he is using the method of boiling frogs in warm water, gradually encroaching and dividing the Guanzhong clan, and now in the Chang'an court, the Yongzhou and Liangzhou clans are opposed, and the imperial party is fighting for each other, while the power is transferring to Sima Fang, and the army is relatively stable, as the interests of the army are guaranteed, Sima Fang's prestige in the army is getting higher and higher. Therefore, if Sima Fang really announced the implementation of the prime minister system and accelerated the suppression of the Guanzhong clan, there was actually nothing impossible, at most, it would be a little mess, and then a new distribution of power would be formed, and Chang'an would not be chaotic. ”

Pang Yuan's detailed analysis was very thorough, so that everyone understood the true situation of the Chang'an Imperial Court today, Liu Bei couldn't help but feel anxious, the more stable the power structure of the Chang'an Imperial Court, the worse the situation for Liu Bei, Liu Bei hoped that Chang'an would be a chaotic imperial court, and that would be a good imperial court. If Sima Fang succeeds in implementing the prime minister system, it will be absolutely bad news for Liu Bei, and Liu Bei must resolutely oppose this kind of behavior above the imperial power.

Thankfully, this is just a rumor!

"Fuqing, then how do you think that Sima Fang will not do it?" Sun Qian asked reluctantly.

"Because there is no need for Sima Fang to do this at this time, the later he does it, the higher the probability of his success, and if he does this at this time, it is easy to incur a backlash from our army, if the Guanzhong clan contacts our army and opposes it together, Sima Fang's risk will be magnified a lot. If this happens, Sima Fang can only unite with Cao Cao and Gongsun Zhan, and it will only be Cao Cao who will benefit in the end, so it is judged that this is a rumor, a rumor released by Cao Cao. ”

Liu Bei nodded, wiped the non-existent sweat on his forehead, and secretly sighed: "Zijing, how does my eldest brother judge?" ”

"Hehe, it's the same as what Fuqing said! Adults have the assistance of such great talents as Fuqing, and they should be worry-free1

"Huh"

This is obviously provoking, Sun Gan glanced at Lu Su hatefully, but he had no way to say anything.

"Fuqing, since we know that it is Cao Cao's conspiracy, how should we deal with it1

"My lord, you just need to suggest to Your Majesty that Sima Fang be knighted."

Liu Bei thought about it, and couldn't help but praise it, this countermeasure was wonderful, on the one hand, he hinted at his attitude and warned Sima Fang not to go wrong at such a time, and on the other hand, he fiercely rebuffed this rumor, showing his close cooperative relationship with Sima Fang.

"Oh, yes, yes! The worries of the abdomen and back can be solved, but what about the capricious Han Sui? ”

"Since he is a capricious villain, he should naturally be crusaded, rather than waiting for him to defect, it is better to contact Yuan Shao to destroy him in one fell swoop now, so that the Iron Army and Yuan Shao can be divided and eaten, and our army will gather and put pressure in the direction of Dingtao and Chen County."

Pang Yuan's strategy is interlocking, from encouraging Yuan Shao to make a move, to containing the northern line, the southern line should naturally be a defense, and next, it depends on how much strength Fang Zhiwen can exert to contain Cao Cao, at this time, Liu Bei thinks about what he did in Changsha, and has a feeling of wanting to pump his mouth, if Fang Zhiwen adds some strength at this time, Cao Cao can put a lot less troops into the northern and western fronts, and if Fang Zhiwen releases water, then he will bear more pressure.

At this juncture, he still offended Fang Zhiwen, it was really because of a small loss! It's a pity that it's too late to regret it now, even if you spit out Hengyang now, you will be offended by those who should be offended, and people don't look down on such a small place as Hengyang at all.

Liu Bei regretted that his intestines were blue, and his face was so bitter that he could drip water.

Outside the south gate of Changsha City.

Huang Zhong's cavalry stood on one side of the road, on the river behind them, with sails, it was a huge naval fleet, these ships were anchored on the river, and the heavy weapons on the ships had opened their canvases and were ready for battle.

The flags on the city of Changsha slowly disappeared one after another, and finally, the closed city gate was opened, the drawbridge was lowered, and a big man in a red horse cloth came out of the city gate first, and the cavalry behind him trotted to follow, which can be regarded as a neat and mighty army.

Guan Yu, who had long hair and fluttering, drove his horse to Huang Zhong who was standing on the side of the road, and only then did he hinge and say that the dumplings were like a dumpling. p> "I have admired the name of General Huang Zhong for a long time, and Guan regrets that he can't fight 1

"Hehe, I feel the same way! But if General Guan is willing, what about a war1

"Guan is a soldier, he should obey orders! Isn't General Huang Zhong a soldier? ”

"No, I am also a soldier below, but my lord said that you can decide yourself whether you fight or not."

Huang Zhong replied with a smile, Guan Yu's face sank, this is obviously sowing discord!

"Hmph, sooner or later there will be a chance, and there will be a period 1 later

"Slow walking, don't send it, by the way, it's raining upstream, General Guan must hurry up, otherwise he won't be able to cross the Xiangjiang River, haha"

Guan Yu no longer bothered Huang Zhong, knocked the horse's belly along the road to the south, the cavalry and infantry behind were also trotting all the way, less than two moments, all the troops had withdrawn from Changsha, Huang Zhong waved his hand, and the cavalry behind him was divided into small teams and entered the city, while checking whether there were traps everywhere, while taking over the city gate and other important places, soon, the city wall fluttered with Zhu Zhi's banner and Huang Zhong's general flag.

Huang Zhong did not rush into the city, standing outside the city, Huang Zhong looked at this familiar city with emotion, this can be regarded as his hometown, but now that even his people have moved to Youzhou, Changsha gives Huang Zhong a very weak feeling.

"General Huang, isn't it cowardly in your hometown1

Xu Sheng on the side joked.

Huang Zhong smiled, pointed to the city in the sun, and said with some emotion:

"Hehe, of course not, there are no relatives here, how can I be timid, just a little emotional, I can't imagine that I can return here in my lifetime, thinking of the difficult choice of leaving my hometown, I can't help but feel a little funny."

"Funny?"

"Yes, is it hard to leave the country? Now that I think about it, in fact, where the relatives are, where is the country, as long as the relatives are well, the country is good! Isn't it? ”

Taught 1, Xu Sheng said half-truthfully.

Huang Zhong stroked his beard, squinted his eyes and looked at the fleet on the river:

"Hehe, Wen Xiang, now that Changsha has been regained and Wen Xiang's mission has been completed, when will he return to Jiujiang to resume his life?"

"It's not to return to Jiujiang, I just received an order, I need to go to Yueyang to build a water village first, I heard that Yueyang is not very stable, there are always water thieves operating in Daze, during this time I want to clear the nearby water surface, and Jiujiang has General Zhen Xiang in charge, I estimate that Yueyang will be my station in the future."

Huang Zhong smiled: "That's right, in the future, the supply on the Yangtze River will depend on Wen Xiang 1."

"Don't dare, Wen Xiang will do his best1

After sending Xu Sheng away, Huang Zhong looked at Changsha City, solemnly turned back to the deputy general and said: "The troops entered the city, posted notices, appeased the people, and summoned the local village elders to the official office for a meeting1
