The military discussion officially began, and the first topic was the aftermath of Jiangdong's backstabbing of Jingzhou, and Liu Bei needed to listen to the opinions of his subordinates, especially the opinions of the Jingzhou faction.

As the head of the Jingzhou faction, Zhuge Liang's eyes were slightly open at this time, looking at the case in front of him, but he didn't say a word.

It is understandable that Zhuge Liang did not speak, he was avoiding suspicion, after all, the messenger of Sun Quanfang's peace this time was his own brother, and the Sun-Liu alliance was also his consistent position, so he was not suitable to speak.

And Pang Tong had to speak at this time.

Pang Tong is not only a strategist that Liu Bei relies on, but more importantly, he is also the representative of the Xiangyang Pang Clan.

Before, Xiangyang was still in Cao Cao's hands, and Xiangyang Pang released Pang Tong, and it was inevitable that there would be a two-headed bet.

But now, Guan Yu has conquered and defended Xiangyang, so now Xiangyang Pang has no choice.

Pang Tong came to Zhang Xi and Xu Shu to complain and complain before, but he was actually talking about this.

The people in the family have a lot of ideas, and they want him to try to help Jingzhou fight for interests in front of the king of Hanzhong, and Pang Tong is sometimes very annoying.

But at this time, Pang Tong still has to say it.

"The land of Jingzhou, Bashu in the west, and Wuhui in the east, is a place where soldiers must fight." Pang Tong stood up and said to Liu Bei, "This place is very important, and you must not fake it to others." Now the land of Jiangbei, Jiangxia looks at the south of the county, but the land of the south of the Yangtze River is divided in half, if it is not neat, even if Jingzhou has 100,000 soldiers, it can not be defended, and the lord is asked to investigate in detail. ”

Pang Tong didn't say what to do with Jiangdong, he only said that Jingzhou is very important, but now there are Jiangxia, Changsha, and Guiyang counties in Jiangdong's hands.

In fact, the subtext is that we can't reconcile with Jiangdong, and if we want to reconcile, we have to take down these three places first.

This basically represents the view of the local great family in Jingzhou.

Although most of the families in these years are grass on the wall, who is strong I listen to whom, but those big families in the north are okay, and the turtles in Jiangdong also want to grab profits in the territory of the Jingzhou family? !

It was difficult to say this before, because Jingzhou was controlled by three families, Cao Cao occupied Xiangyang and Nanyang in the north, which was the most elite part of Jingzhou, Liu Bei occupied Nanjun and Wuling in the middle, and Lingling two counties.

As for Jiangdong, Jiangdong has never been in the consideration of the Jingzhou family.

If the current general trend of the world is divided into three parts of the world, Jingzhou is actually a microcosm embodiment of such a situation.

But now, with Guan Yu's capture of Xiangfan, the situation in Jingzhou has changed, and the person who occupies the most elite areas of Jingzhou has become Liu Bei, and now Liu Bei, not to mention Jingyi, also laid down Hanzhong, personally faced Cao Cao, and drove Cao Cao out of Hanzhong, and suddenly gained momentum.

In this case, the local family in Jingzhou began to choose to turn to Liu Bei, which is also a thing of the past.

But the Jingzhou family fell to Liu Bei, and in the same way, Liu Bei also had to find a way to ensure their interests, with Xiangfan in front, Cao Jun in Nanyang didn't have to worry, but the Jiangdong turtles around him were really disgusting.

Therefore, the Jingzhou family hopes that Liu Bei will take this opportunity to clean up Jiangdong.

Don't seek to destroy Jiangdong, but at least drive the Jiangdong forces out of Jingzhou, so it's good.

Pang Tong's words on behalf of the Jingzhou family mean this - discord, it is better to go to war.

After Liu Bei heard this, he smiled slightly, and then nodded and motioned for Pang Tong to sit down, where did the grain and grass come from? ! Do you Jingzhou families sponsor it?!

After Pang Tong sat down, Xu Shu stood up, hesitated slightly, and said to Liu Bei, "My lord, although Shiyuan's words are reasonable, but the soldiers of Jiangdong are still gathering in the area of Baqiu and Lukou, Jiangxia is also stationed in the area of defense, Jingzhou is not enough troops, and it may be difficult to take a plan for a while. When the time is ripe, the thunder sweeps the hole and breaks the enemy in one fell swoop. ”

Xu Shu's meaning is to prepare for war under the banner of negotiation. Typical Ming Xiu plank road darkness Chen Cang.

Xu Shu also advocated fighting, after all, he had been dragged in Wuling all these years, just to guard against Jiangdong, if he could drive Jiangdong out of Jingzhou's sphere of influence in one fell swoop, then he could be liberated and go north to confront Cao's army.

Over the years, I have watched Pang Tong, Fa Zheng and others make suggestions and establish meritorious deeds by Liu Bei's side, and watched Zhuge Liang, Zhang Xi and others use troops to expand their territory and make many military exploits.

But he has been in the Wuling area, busy dealing with the barbarians, and busy guarding against Jiangdong, and he has not taken any credit.

Xu Shu really doesn't want to deal with a bunch of capricious people. Whether it is Jiangdong or barbarians, in fact, they are almost the same in nature, they can't be fed, they can't be beaten, and they are annoying.

Therefore, Xu Shu suggested that Jiangdong's vigilance be relaxed under the banner of negotiation, and then the troops should be mobilized to break through and recover the three counties of Jingzhou, including Jiangxia, in one fell swoop, and completely drive Jiangdong out of Jingzhou.

This method is good, but it is more troublesome.

In the current era, logistics support and troop mobilization are extremely troublesome, and the secrecy is not strong, once Jingzhou begins to mobilize soldiers and hoard grain and grass on a large scale, who can not know what you are doing?!

Not to mention, the person who stationed Baqiu to lead the troops, called Zhou Yu, if he can't see through this, can he still be the famous general who is famous all over the world?!

So, Zhang Xi quickly stood up and raised an objection.

"Brother Yuan's plan is good, but I am afraid that Zhou Yu can't be hidden." Zhang Xi got up, first saluted Liu Bei, and then saluted Xu Shu, before saying, "According to Xi's foolish opinion, if the general trend is today, after all, Cao Thief is strong and Sun Liu is weak, if you can swallow Wu in one fell swoop, it is not impossible to fight with Jiangdong, if not, it is better to take a break from fighting, rebuild the alliance, and wait for the times to change." ”

Zhang Xi does not advocate fighting.

This is the answer that Zhang Xi has been thinking about for a long time.

On the one hand, Zhang Xi didn't want Liu Bei to come to the Battle of Yiling again, and completely lose the family money that he had saved so hard.

On the other hand, from a realistic point of view, Liu Bei really has no need to turn his face with Jiangdong.

In the Battle of Yiling in history, Liu Bei attacked Jiangdong, and one of his purposes was naturally to avenge the second master, but more importantly, Liu Bei wanted to recapture Jingzhou.

The early battles went very smoothly, and Liu Bei fought all the way to Yiling, and he was about to come into contact with the core area of Nanjun.

In fact, Sun Quan at that time did think about whether to give up Nanjun in exchange for reconciliation with Liu Bei.

But Liu Bei himself committed a military taboo, and Lu Xun seized the opportunity to create chaos with fire, and finally was defeated and had to retreat to the White Emperor City.

But now, the second master is still happily in front of his former general in Xiangyang, Xiangyang is too guarded, Jingzhou is not lost, Ji Han doesn't have to jump on one leg, at this time everything is still walking according to the plan of "Longzhong Pair".

Since it is still under control, shouldn't it continue to follow the design of "Longzhong Pair", and "can be used as aid but not possible" for Jiangdong? !

After all, even if Jiangdong Xiao'er is capricious and untrustworthy, but if it is such a large piece of territory there, Jiangdong must always guard it, and it must contain Cao Jun's Qingxu soldiers. In this way, no matter whether Liu Beijun attacks Wanluo or marches into Liangzhou Guanzhong in the future, Cao Jun will not dare to easily transfer troops to Qingxu to help.

As for the three counties in Jingzhou, Zhang Xi's idea is that it is best to find a way to get it back, and it doesn't matter if he can't get it back, after all, those three places are either swamps and tidal flats, or mountains and hills, and there are not so many places that can be used to grow grain, but they need to spend a lot of money and grain to transform.

At this point, the speeches of the people from the Jingzhou faction have ended, although Zhang Xi does not have this consciousness, but to emphasize, in the eyes of Fa Zheng and others, he is a person from the Jingzhou faction.

Now that the Jingzhou faction has finished speaking, it is time for the people from the Yizhou faction to speak.

No matter what kind of division the Yizhou faction has internally, when it comes to the outside world, they are all Yizhou factions, because their core interests are in Yizhou.

Therefore, although Fa Zheng is a member of the Dongzhou faction, when it comes to Yizhou affairs, he is the Yizhou faction and Zhang Xi is the Jingzhou faction, not to see where he is from, but only to see where his core interests are.

"Lord, I just thought that Zhang Taishou's words were very true!" Fa Zheng got up, saluted Liu Bei and said, "Now that the two states have suffered a series of major battles, and the states and counties are tired, it is really not suitable to use troops abroad, so it is better to make a truce for the time being, make peace with Jiangdong, and recuperate." After a few years, when the grain and grass are sufficient and the soldiers are elite, the conquest will be considered. ”

Fa Zheng jumped out and agreed with Zhang Xi's suggestion for the first time.

Nonsense, you Jingzhou people want to fight, where do the soldiers come from, where does the food come from?!

It can't be transferred from my Yizhou?!

Use our Yizhou money and food to help you Jingzhou people fight, what good things do you Jingzhou people think?!

Besides, the little money that we Yizhou people have accumulated with great difficulty can be used in the battle of Hanzhong, and we are counting on relying on this piece of fat in Hanzhong to make up for it, so let's pay for it and send people to help you fight Jingzhou, what are the benefits of our Yizhou people? !

Let's not talk about the first two, now a person from the Jingzhou faction finally jumped out and said that he would not fight, so if I don't help, then can I still be regarded as a person from the Yizhou faction?!

As soon as Fa Zheng said this, Huang Quan also quickly stood up and echoed that at this time, there is no contradiction between the local faction in Yizhou and the Dongzhou faction, it is related to everyone's vital interests, then everyone is from the Yizhou faction.

At this moment, the main and faction instantly overtook and won a one-vote lead with a three-to-two advantage.

As for the generals. The generals' minds are relatively simple, but they also have a lot of careful thoughts.

Ma Chao wanted to kill back to Xiliang and avenge his wife and children, of course he hoped not to turn his face with Jiangdong, which would affect the military direction of Liu Bei's group.

So Ma Chao Lord and.

As a native of Jingzhou, Huang Zhong naturally fights the main battle, not to mention that whether it is Changsha or Nanyang, it is not in Liu Bei's hands, Huang Zhong also wants to return to his hometown, after all, he is already in his seventies.

As for Zhao Yun, he is a relatively modest character, and besides, he feels that it is not appropriate to use swords now, it is better to reconcile with Sun Quan, but Sun Quan has to pay a little price, otherwise the next time he stabs him in the back, it will only be more painful.

Zhang Fei

"It's about Jingzhou, why don't you ask the second brother what he wants before making a decision?!" Zhang Fei shouted, saying a crucial question.

What is Guan Yu's attitude?!
