It is said that in the battle of Guandu, Liu Bei saw that Yuan Shao was about to be defeated, and he Liu Bei could not sink with Yuan Shao's ship.

At the beginning, Yuan Shao allocated 50,000 soldiers and horses to Liu Bei, and let him be responsible for the defense of the flanks and block Cao Cao's pursuers.

Liu Bei is not particular about this!

As soon as Yuan Shao walked on the front foot, Liu Bei ran on the back foot. It was precisely because of Liu Bei's escape that Ju Yi was defeated.

Liu Bei had nowhere to go after he ran away, so he came to Jingzhou to seek refuge with his brother Liu Biao.

For Liu Biao's territory, Liu Bei has coveted it for a long time.

The land of Jingxiang Nine Counties, although it is said that Su Ming now occupies a Jiangxia County, there are only eight counties left.

However, these eight counties are all land of fish and rice, not to mention rich, and the population is still very dense.

Whether it's recruiting soldiers or raising food and grass, this is an excellent place.

Liu Bei's purpose in coming here was to get the eight counties of Jingxiang into his own hands, and then find a way to recapture Jiangxia County, which was occupied by Su Ming.

At that time, Liu Bei had the land of Jingxiang Nine Counties in his hands, and he would have the qualifications to enter the world and become a great prince.

However, Liu Bei has just arrived, and he can't show his ambitions, although Liu Bei wants this Jingxiang land, but he can only slowly figure it out.

However, Liu Bei is shrewd, and Liu Biao is not stupid.

Liu Biao is just old and has no enterprising spirit. However, his mood to keep his foundation is still very strong.

The reason why Liu Biao accepted Liu Bei, in fact, to put it bluntly, was also to borrow Liu Bei's strength.

Although Liu Biao is the lord of Jingxiang, most of the elite soldiers and horses in Jingxiang are in the hands of his brother-in-law Cai Mao.

His wife's maiden family, Cai's rights are too great.

Over the years, the land of Jingxiang has not been able to contain the power of the Cai family.

Liu Biao wanted to set up his eldest son Liu Qi as his heir several times, but he was blocked by Cai's back.

Because, Liu Qi was born to Liu Biao and his dead wife, and he and Cai's son are the second son Liu Cong.

Therefore, the Cai family naturally wants to make their son their heir.

This matter has been debated several times, but nothing has come to fruition.

Liu Biao accepted Liu Bei, largely because Liu Bei had 50,000 soldiers and horses in his hands. He can use Liu Bei to contain Cai Mao.

Since ancient times, this side of the hegemon has paid attention to a balancing act.

Everything must be balanced, in Jingxiang, the Cai family's power is too great, Liu Biao accepts Liu Bei, that is, to play balance.

Although Liu Biao accepted Liu Bei, where to put Liu Bei is another knowledge.

If Liu Bei was put by his side, Liu Biao would really be a little uneasy.

Liu Biao was also afraid, what did Liu Bei have to be disobedient, what if Liu Bei clicked him.

After thinking about it, Liu Biao put Liu Bei in Xinye County.

can not only use Liu Bei's power to deter Cai Mao, but also allow him to embankment Su Ming's Jiangxia County, which can be described as killing two birds with one stone.

Since coming to Xinye, Liu Bei's mood is quite good!

Although this Xinye County is not big, Liu Biao will not lack his grain and grass.

Every time the grain and grass are delivered as scheduled, there are only a lot more, and Liu Bei does not have to worry about the grain and grass.

The most important thing is that after Liu Bei came to Xinye, a big talent took the initiative to come to the door.

That is, Zhuge Liang, who is known as Wolong.

In history, Liu Bei looked at the thatched house three times, so he invited Zhuge Liang out of the mountain to assist him.

However, in this life, with the butterfly Su Ming, he fanned his wings, and this historical line was offset.

After Zhuge Liang jumped into the river to escape, he knew that his home could not stay, so he went out to find the master.

Zhuge Liang has a grudge against Cao Cao and Su Ming, so the master he is looking for must be the opposite of Cao Cao and Su Ming.

Liu Biao was old and frail, and he didn't have the heart to make any progress in the world, so Zhuge Liang first excluded him.

Originally, Zhuge Liang planned to take refuge in Jiangdong Sun Quan, after all, Sun Quan and Su Ming were mortal enemies.

However, when he walked to Jingxiang, Zhuge Liang heard that the emperor's uncle Liu Bei had come to seek refuge with Liu Biao.

Liu Bei, although he has been adrift for half his life, has no place to stay.

However, he reaped something else.

That's fame.

Don't say anything else, you have to talk about reputation alone, Liu Bei's reputation is not inferior to Prime Minister Cao Cheng.

Moreover, Prime Minister Cao Cheng has a bad reputation, but Liu Bei has a good reputation!

At this time, the benefits of fame are manifested.

I heard that the emperor's uncle Liu Bei took refuge in Liu Biao and was sent to Xinye County by Liu Biao, so Zhuge Liang came to Xinye first and visited Liu Bei.

When Zhuge Liang came to Liu Bei for the first time, Liu Bei happened to go to the military camp outside the city to inspect the soldiers and horses. Zhuge Liang went to see Liu Bei for the first time, but he didn't see him.

However, Zhuge Liang was also very patient, and he didn't see Liu Bei for the first time.

He found an inn in Xinye County, and after waiting for a few days, he came to Liu Bei again.

It is also a coincidence that when he came to Liu Bei for the second time, Liu Bei was not in Xinye Mansion.

The soldiers in the government told Liu Bei that Liu Biao had sent someone to deliver grain and grass. Liu Bei personally led the soldiers and horses to pick up the grain.

Our Wolong Zhuge Liang, adhering to the idea that good things are more grinding, and good dishes are not afraid of being late, he went back and waited for a few days.

After waiting for a few days, Zhuge Liang fasted and bathed for a few days before he set off to find Liu Bei again.

This time, Zhuge Liang can be regarded as getting what he wanted, and met the famous imperial uncle Liu Bei.

As soon as Liu Bei heard that the person who came was Wolong Zhuge Liang, he was so happy that he almost fainted.

Wolong, the phoenix chick can settle the world.

Liu Bei has heard this sentence more than once.

It's just that in the past, he has been fighting in the north and south, and it is too far away from the place where the dragon and the phoenix chick live.

There has been no chance to find Wolong, Phoenix Chick.

I never thought that this Wolong would come to the door in turn today.

After Liu Bei learned Zhuge Liang's identity, he hurriedly sent someone to invite Zhuge Liang to the mansion.

After Liu Bei and Zhuge Liang met, it was a long talk.

We've been talking all night!

This night, the two talked about the script all night.

Bah!

The two chatted about the situation in the world all night.

Zhuge Liang analyzed the situation in the world for Liu Bei, and gave Liu Bei two strategies for dominating the world.

This best strategy is to take Jingxiang over, and with Jingxiang as the foundation, you will have the capital to dominate the world.

Jingxiang has a lot of people and a lot of food, plus Liu Bei's reputation, it is like a fish in water.

However, if Liu Bei wants to take Jing Xiang, he can't take it by chance, he can only take it by skill.

Otherwise, once Liu Bei's own reputation is ruined, then it will be impossible to achieve popular prosperity, and it will be difficult for Liu Bei to gain a foothold in Jingxiang.

After Liu Bei listened to Zhuge Liang's analysis, he nodded again and again.

Liu Bei came to Jingzhou to seek refuge with Liu Biao, that's what he thought!

However, Liu Bei is not as meticulous as Zhuge Liang's.
