In later generations, some people once looked at the mountain and sighed, the difficulty of the Shu Road, it is difficult to go to the blue sky. 八一Chinese })〕. 〉8?1]Z>].>C]OM You must know that at that time, it was already in the Tang Dynasty, and with the social background conditions at that time, there was still such a sigh, let alone now? In the era of the Three Kingdoms, for the opening of Yizhou, there are very few, now under the governance of Liu Yan, it is only focused on agriculture, on the road, except for the trail that is only for people to walk, there is nothing else, the whole Yizhou, can be said to be a country within a country, and it is because of this that it will have the name of the country of abundance.

The road chosen by Zhou Yu is Brazil, and among the Yizhou, Ba County is too big, which can be said to be divided into three, namely Pasir County, Padang County and Ba County. Among them, Padang and Ba County are accessible by the Yangtze River, and Brazil is completely a 6-way county, except for some small rivers that can not be smaller, that is, some mountains and rivers, the east is better, the more westward, the terrain will climb, from Hanchang, Brazil, Xichong and other places, Huo Ran is high, the road is more difficult.

However, even so, for those Jingzhou troops who live on the river all year round, just the road near the easternmost city entrance in Brazil has already made them suffer enough. In the evening, a group of people can go to the entrance of the city, more than 300 people to defend the small city, the city wall is low, three people stacked Arhats, you can be on the top of the Ru wall, did not encounter much resistance, Sun Ce just took the army outside the city to go through the scene, the city guards made the decision to surrender in the city.

It's only been three days, the city has fallen, and the war against Liu Zhang in Yizhou has just begun.

At the beginning of May, when the world was full of gunsmoke, Liu Bei made the final adjustment, in Youzhou, even the army that has been stationed in western Liaoxi was also transferred back by him, only in the face of the defense on the northern grassland, Liu Bei did not move at all, in his heart, there has always been a voice telling him that this is a bottom line, a bottom line that belongs to the nation. For this, Liu Bei didn't know at this time that in the near future, it was precisely because of this bottom line that he saved one of his lives.

"Lord, although the main battlefield is in Fanyang now, the battle line has dragged on for too long, more than two hundred miles, as long as there is a war, it will inevitably be out of control, will the lord think again?" The Xin family, after defecting to Liu Bei, especially after Liu Beiji, can be said to be a rising tide, the wealth of the Xin family, compared with before, I don't know how many times more, now Liu Bei's posture is obviously a lose-lose strategy, Xin Bi is a little reluctant to see, after all, the foundation of the entire Xin family is in Youzhou, if Youzhou is over, the Xin family can still run? Xin Bi looked at Liu Bei with a heavy face, and said in a low voice.

Xinbi's words immediately attracted many local wealthy families in Youzhou to echo them, for them, war is a disaster, who wants to put their family in a disaster? The noisy joy below, no one noticed that in Liu Bei's eyes that had been squinting slightly, a cold light flashed, Liu Bei is Liu Bei, even if he is in a worrying situation now, how could he have allowed people to be so bullied?

The Xin family, in fact, the real person who is the master is Xin Ping, different from Xin Bi, Xin Ping is because he found a master who can really use himself and sincerely serve Liu Bei, you know, he has never met a master like Liu Bei who obeys his words, how dare he not serve his life? It is also because of this that he has dealt with a lot less of family affairs, and what Xin Bi has done in recent times, Xin Ping has been kept in the dark, he doesn't know that he, his younger brother who has no quarrel with the world on weekdays, actually carried him behind his back and united with other wealthy families to exert pressure, at this moment, Xin Ping's eyes were full of disbelief.

"George, tell me, it's not true, what you said was not your intention." His arm trembled a little, and Xin Ping carefully put it behind him, not daring to show it in front of others, he was afraid that everyone in the room would see his surprise. At this moment, Xin Ping's heart suddenly pinched, after getting along with Liu Bei for so many years, what kind of character is Liu Bei, can he not know? Is his brother crazy? Do you have to drag the Xin family into a place of no return? Xin Bi didn't know what to do Xin Comment, but he knew that now the Xin family was in danger because of this younger brother's words: "Lord, his subordinates have no way to discipline him, and he has caused trouble to the lord, and I ask the lord to forgive my brother for this ...... for the sake of his subordinates' conscientious work for many years."

Xin Bi looked at his brother, but there was not much expression on his face, in the more than two years of confrontation between Liu Bei and Yuan Shao, he had already sent someone to secretly contact Yuan Shao, the Yuan family, compared to Liu Bei, the background is too big, can't just let the Xin family and Liu Bei work together to burn a jade with Yuan Shao? What's more, those small actions that Liu Bei did secretly, did he really think he didn't know anything? Simbi lowered his head, his mind spinning, thinking to himself.

"Zhongzhi is relieved, but he is not ungrateful." Liu Bei turned his head and looked at Xin Ping, the corners of his mouth couldn't help but rise slightly, he was personally in charge of a dark department, and his hand had even touched Langya in Xuzhou, not to mention being in his own territory, for Xin Ping, Liu Bei was most satisfied, this was the first to be collected by himself, and he had been working hard for himself for more than ten years, even if the small actions that Xin Bi did in private were enough to kill a few times, Liu Bei was still a ninja and was not angry.

The Three Kingdoms is really an era of deceit, even in the shining generals, it is not invincible to a mind, it can be said that in such an era, what really belongs to the mainstream is those strategists, and the competition behind all events is in these strategists, and Liu Bei's forces, the most prominent of which are the Xin family. If Liu Bei hadn't given up his ambition to compete for the world, it could be said that even if there was Xin Ping, Xin Bi's final fate would be very miserable. It's just that the situation is different now, there is no hope of competing for power, even if it is his own nephew in his later life, Liu Bei has already arranged for them to go to Qingxu, for the Xin family, even if it is for the sake of Xin Ping's face, Liu Bei will not be so harsh.

"Okay, let's do this today, you go back and think about it, and we will discuss this matter tomorrow." Liu Bei's words, with some inexplicable meaning, as if he had a finger, swept his eyes, many people only felt that they had been seen through, and their hearts trembled, for this, Liu Bei did not dwell too much, and waved his hand to beat everyone out.

"Bump ......" In the courtyard of the Xin family in Fanyang City, the two brothers who had just returned walked into the study with dark faces, but for a moment, a dull sound suddenly came out of it, which frightened the people waiting outside into pale.

In the room, Xin Ping glared at his younger brother with angry eyes, and at this time, he was almost a little crazy: "You and my brother, if you have an opinion about me, you can find me directly, or kill or whatever you want, but you are doing such a thing now, aren't you putting my Xin family in danger?" I entrusted the affairs of the family to you, thinking that you have a calm and thoughtful nature, did you do that? In your eyes, is there still my brother, and is there any hundreds of people in my Xin family? ”

Xin Ping's roar can be heard clearly from afar, and the people outside the door are even more frightened, Xin Bi looked at his brother, but there were some grievances in his expression, but he refused to bow his head, his eyes were slightly red, he stubbornly raised his head, looked at Xin Ping and replied in a deep voice: "Brother knows Liu Bei's decision?" Brother, do you know that once the war starts, my Xin family will inevitably be wiped out? Brother can you know that now in Youzhou, except for my brother, all the wealthy families have abandoned Liu Bei? ”

Xin Bi's words were tantamount to a thunderclap, Xin Ping only felt that his heart trembled, did the situation in Youzhou decay like this?

Among Liu Bei's advisers, in addition to the Xin family, only Gu Yong's Gu family is counted as a wealthy family, but the Gu family is far away in Jiangdong, and only the Xin family really supports Liu Bei. All along, Xin Ping has been on the front line, facing the pressure of Yuan Shao's army, Xin Ping has spent all his energy to deal with it, if he hadn't heard Xin Bi say this with his own ears at this time, he wouldn't have noticed these at all, perhaps, this is why, Liu Bei will take a look at Xin Jiagao.

"How so? How could this be the case? These families, in their hearts, have they never known what courtesy, righteousness and shame are? Xin Ping was a little confused, his lips trembled and muttered, full of grief and indignation, at this moment, he realized that Youzhou was already dangerous! Everyone knows that in the entire Han Dynasty, most of the forces are in the hands of the family, and Liu Bei has lost the support of the family, and the result can be imagined.

Xin Bi looked at the dejected appearance of the eldest brother, and his heart couldn't bear it for a while, he knew very well what kind of energy the eldest brother had paid for Liu Bei, and now in the face of Liu Bei's forces that may fall in decline in one day, pain is indispensable, but what he is most worried about now is another matter. The ancients' thinking has limitations, and loyalty is one of the embodiments, but what Xin Bi is worried about now is that his eldest brother can't think about it for a while, and he shed blood for Liu Bei.

After a slight hesitation, Xin Bi confided in his brother a news that he had never told anyone: "At the beginning of the year, Jian Yong by Liu Bei's side had been out for more than a month, and when he came back, he was followed by a mysterious person......
