Taking stock of the counselor rankings, Guo Jia only ranks at the bottom?

Liu Bei said:"It's just what I want."

So Liu Bei led the people to leave Xiangyang and go to Jiangling.

Many people in Xiangyang City took advantage of the chaos and fled with Liu Bei.

Wei Yan fought with Wenpin from Sishi (9 a.m. to 11 a.m.) to Wei Shi (11 p.m. to 3 p.m.), and all his troops were exhausted.

Wei Yan fled on horseback, but could not find Liu Bei, so he went to Changsha to seek refuge with Han Xuan, the governor of Changsha.

Later, when

Liu Bei learned that Cao Cao's army was heading south in Fancheng, he led his army and people to flee south.

Unexpectedly, Cao Cao sent tiger and leopard cavalry to chase and kill him.

Travel thousands of miles in a day.

Finally, Cao Jun caught up with Liu Jun at Dangyang Changban and defeated Liu Jun.

Liu Bei had no choice but to flee Xiakou.

After Zhang Fei made a scene at Changban Bridge, he and Liu Bei fled to Hanjin.

When Liu Bei was approaching Hanjin, he suddenly saw heavy dust rising behind him, drums were beating loudly, and shouts shook the ground.

Liu Bei said:"There is a big river in front of us and there are chasing troops behind us. What should we do?"

He ordered Zhao Yun to prepare to resist the enemy.

Cao Cao ordered in the army:"Now Liu Bei is the turtle in the urn. If you don't catch him now, it will be like letting the fish into the sea and letting the tiger return to the mountain. All generals, please move forward at the risk of your life."

The generals took the order and chased him bravely one by one.

Suddenly there was a sound of drums from behind the hillside, and a team of men and horses galloped out, shouting:"I have been waiting here for a long time!" The general at the head, holding the Qinglong Yanyue Sword, sat down on the red rabbit horse. It turned out to be Guan Yunchang.

Guan Yu went to Jiangxia to borrow 10,000 troops and horses. When he learned about the battle at Changban in Dangyang, he came here specially.

When Cao Cao saw Guan Yu, he immediately reined in his horse and turned around and said to the generals:

"Oh my god, I fell into Zhuge Liang’s scheme again!"

He ordered the army to retreat quickly.

After chasing for more than ten miles, Guan Yu returned to protect Liu Bei and waited until Hanjin. When

Cao Cao saw Guan Yu leading his army to intercept on the dry road, he suspected that there was an ambush and did not dare to pursue him. He was also worried that Liu Bei would take Jiangling by water, so he He led his army to Jiangling overnight.

Deng Yi, who was in charge of Jingzhou, and Liu Xian, who was in charge of Biejia, already knew what was going on in Xiangyang and knew that they could not resist Cao Cao, so they led the soldiers and civilians of Jingzhou out of the city to surrender.

Cao Cao entered the city, calmed the people, released Han Song, and promoted him to the rank of Grand Chief. Honglu. The other officials all have their own rewards.

Cao Cao discussed with the generals:"Now that Liu Bei has gone to Jiangxia, he may unite with Soochow.

A single spark can start a prairie fire. What strategies should we use to stop it?"

_

_

Sun Quan must have been afraid and came to surrender, thus achieving his goal."

According to Xun You's wishes, Cao Cao sent an envoy to Soochow with a message, and raised a water army of 830,000, falsely claiming to be one million. They advanced by water and came along the river, connecting Jingzhou and the Three Gorges to the west, and Qichun and Huangmei to the east. , built a stronghold for more than 300 miles.

Sun Quan stationed troops in Chaisang in the east of the Yangtze River. He heard that Cao Cao's army had arrived in Xiangyang, and Liu Cong surrendered. He also heard that Cao Cao had captured Jiangling by starry night, so he summoned all the counselors to discuss defensive strategies.

Lu Su said:"Jingzhou and We are neighbors, our country is strong and our people are prosperous.

If we occupy Jingzhou, we can become an emperor.

Now that Liu Biao has just died and Liu Bei has been defeated, I asked for orders to go to Jiangxia to mourn and take the opportunity to persuade Liu Bei to appease Liu Biao's generals and unite to defeat Cao Cao. If Liu Bei is willing to obey his orders, he can achieve great things. Sun

Quan happily listened to his words and immediately sent Lu Su to Jiangxia with gifts to mourn.

Liu Bei went to Jiangxia and discussed countermeasures with Zhuge Liang and Liu Qi.

Zhuge Liang said:"Cao Cao is so powerful that it is difficult to resist. It is better to go to Dongwu and join Sun Quan. Seek their support and let the North and the South confront each other, and we will profit from it. Liu

Bei said:"There are so many talented people in Jiangdong, they must have long-term plans. How can they accommodate us?" Zhuge

Liang said with a smile:"Now that Cao Cao has millions of people, he is occupying Jianghan. Why doesn't Jiangdong send people to find out the truth?"

If someone comes here, I will use him to sail to Jiangdong and use his sharp tongue to persuade the northern and southern armies to annex each other.

If the southern army wins, we will kill Cao Cao together and seize the land of Jingzhou.

If the northern army wins, we will take advantage of the situation to seize Jiangnan.

Liu Bei said:"This is a very clever strategy." But when will the Kodong people arrive~?"

While he was talking, someone reported that Sun Quan from Jiangdong sent Lu Su to mourn, and the ship had docked.

Zhuge Liang smiled and said:"Our matter can be successful!

Then asked Liu Qi:"When Sun Ce died, did Xiangyang send people to mourn?""

Liu Qi said:"Jiangdong and my family have a grudge against the murder of their father, so how can they exchange funeral rites?

Zhuge Liang said:"Then Lu Su came not to mourn, but to spy on the military situation." So he said to Liu Bei:"Lu Su has arrived. If I ask about Cao Cao's movements, my lord will just say that I don't know.

When he asks again and again, my lord will ask him to ask me.""

After Zhuge Liang's plan was completed,

Liu Qi sent people to greet Lu Su.

Lu Su went to the city to mourn. Liu Qi received the gift and invited Lu Su to meet Liu Bei.

Liu Bei invited Lu Su to drink in the back hall. Lu Su said:"I have heard for a long time that the emperor has Damn, I have no chance to visit you.

Now that I can see you, I will be lucky for three lifetimes. Recently I heard that the emperor's uncle was fighting with Cao Cao, so he must know what Cao Cao is and what he is.

May I ask how many troops Cao Cao has? Liu

Bei said:"I have only a small army. I ran away as soon as I heard that Cao Cao was coming. I didn't even know what Cao Cao's army was." Lu Su said:"

I heard that the emperor's uncle used Zhuge Kongming's plan to burn Cao Cao to death in two fires.

How can I say I don't know?"

Liu Bei said:"Then you have to ask Kong Ming to know the details."

Lu Su said,"Where is Kong Ming?" I asked to see him. Liu

Bei then asked Zhuge Liang to come out to meet Lu Su.

After meeting Zhuge Liang, Lu Su asked,"I have admired your talent for a long time, but I have never met him before."

I have the honor to meet you today and would like to ask you about today's safety issues."

Zhuge Liang said:"I know all about Cao Cao's treacherous plot, but I am willing to do it but not strong enough, so I am temporarily retreating.

Lu Su said,"Is your uncle now prepared to fight to the death here?"

Zhuge Liang said:"The envoy has an old relationship with Wu Chen, the prefect of Cangwu, and is going to defect to him."

Lu Su said:"Wu Chen has few provisions and few soldiers. He cannot protect himself. How can he accommodate others?"

Zhuge Liang said:"Although Wu Chen cannot stay here for a long time, it is only a temporary attachment now. I will have other good plans in the future."

Lu Su said:"General Sun is in six counties. He has abundant troops and good food, and he treats virtuous officers well. Many heroes in Jiangbiao have joined him."

You might as well send your confidants to form an alliance with Soochow and work together to achieve great things.

Zhuge Liang said:"Liu Shijun and General Sun have never been friends, so I'm afraid it will be difficult to convince him."

Moreover, there are no confidants who can be sent as envoys.

Lu Su said:"Sir's eldest brother is now Jiangdong's staff officer and has always wanted to meet him."

I am willing to go with you to see General Sun and discuss important matters together.

Liu Bei said:"Kong Ming is my teacher. I can't leave him for a moment. How can he go?" Lu

Su insisted on asking Zhuge Liang to go with him, but Liu Bei pretended not to allow it.

Zhuge Liang said:"The situation is critical, I ask for orders to go." Only then did Liu

Bei agree.

Lu Su said goodbye to Liu Bei and Liu Qi, and boarded a ship with Zhuge Liang to go to Chaisang.

Finally, Zhuge Liang suggested to Liu Bei that he ask Sun Quan for help, and Zhuge Liang recommended himself to Chaisang as a lobbyist and became friends with Lu Su.

And soon, Zhuge Liang was about to perform another miracle.

That was Zhuge Liang's verbal battle with the Confucians!!

And soon, the picture emerged.

After Liu Bei retreated to Jiangxia,

Lu Su invited Zhuge Liang to be an envoy to Soochow, hoping to promote an alliance between Sun and Liu.

Lu Su and Zhuge Liang said goodbye to Liu Bei and Liu Qi, and took a boat to Chaisang County.

The two discussed in the boat.

Lu Su said to Zhuge Liang:"Sir, when you meet General Sun, never say that Cao Cao has many soldiers and generals."

Zhuge Liang said:"No need for Zijing to tell you, I have already thought about how to say it." (Read the Baoshuang novel, go to Feilu Novel Network!)

When the ship arrived,

Lu Su asked Zhuge Liang to rest in the post while he went to see Sun Quan first.

Sun Quan was summoning civil and military officials to discuss matters in the hall.

When he heard that Lu Su was back, he hurriedly called him in and asked:

"Zijing went to Jiangxia to find out whether it was true or false."[]

Lu Su said:"I already know a rough idea, let me report it slowly."

Sun Quan showed Cao Cao's memorandum to Lu Su and said:"Cao Cao sent an envoy here yesterday with the memorandum.

I sent the envoy first, and now I have gathered everyone to discuss it. , the results have not been discussed yet."

Lu Su took the message and read it, its general content is:

【I, Cao Mengde, marched south at the emperor's command, Liu Cong was captured without hesitation, and the people of Jingxiang surrendered.

I now have a million soldiers and a thousand generals. I want to join the generals in Jiangxia to attack Liu Bei together, share the land together, and form a permanent alliance.

Don't wait and see, please reply to me immediately. ]

Lu Su said after reading:"What do you think, my lord?"

Sun Quan said:"I have no idea yet."

Zhang Zhao said:"Cao Cao has millions of people, and in the name of the emperor, he campaigns in all directions and resists his name. It's not going well.

Moreover, the lord's advantage in resisting Cao Cao is the Yangtze River. Now that Cao Cao has captured Jingzhou and shares the danger of the Yangtze River with us, our advantage is gone.

In my opinion, it is better to surrender.This is the safest policy.

All the counselors said:"Zibu's words are in line with God's will.""

Sun Quan was silent.

Naturally, he didn't want to surrender to Cao Cao and ruin Jiangdong's foundation.

Zhang Zhao added:"My lord, there is no need to be suspicious. If they surrender to Cao Cao, the people of Soochow can find peace and the six counties in the south of the Yangtze River can be preserved."Sun Quan still lowered his head and said nothing.

Soon, Sun Quan got up to change clothes, and Lu Su followed closely behind.

Sun Quan knew what Lu Su meant, so he held Lu Su's hand and said,"What do you think?

Lu Su said:"What everyone said just now is misleading the general."

Everyone can surrender to Cao Cao, but only generals cannot surrender to Cao Cao.

Sun Quan said,"How do you say this?"

Lu Su said:"If I surrender to Cao Cao and send me back to my hometown, I can still slowly get from a petty official to a state or county governor."

If the general surrenders to Cao Cao, where can he be placed? The most I can do is make you a marquis, give you a car, a horse, and a few followers. How can you still go south and be alone?

Everyone has their own plans and cannot be listened to. The general should have made up his mind earlier.

Sun Quan sighed and said:"Everyone's discussion has disappointed me greatly." What Zijing said is exactly what I want.

This is God’s gift to me! But Cao Cao has Yuan Shao's army and Jingzhou's troops, so it may be difficult for Cao Cao to resist.

Lu Su said:"~I went to Jiangxia and invited Zhuge Liang, Zhuge Jin's younger brother.

My lord can ask him and know what Cao Cao is and what he is."

Sun Quan said,"Is Mr. Wolong here too?"

Lu Su said:"He is resting in the post."

Sun Quan said,"It's too late today and we haven't met yet."

Tomorrow we will gather Wenwu in the tent, let him meet me Jiangdong Yingjie, and then discuss matters in the hall. Lu

Su took the order and left.

The next day, Lu Su went to Guanyi to meet Zhuge Liang and told him:"When you meet my lord today, don't say that Cao Cao has more troops."

Zhuge Liang smiled and said:"I will act according to the opportunity and will never make any mistakes.""

Lu Su took Zhuge Liang to the tent, and saw Zhang Zhao, Gu Yong and a group of more than 20 civil and military personnel, all wearing Eguan Bo, sitting upright.

Zhuge Liang met each one one by one and asked each person's name.

After saluting, he sat down. In the guest seat.

And soon, another miracle of Zhuge Liang's ingenuity, the verbal battle with the Confucian generals was staged!!

Zhang Zhao and others saw that Zhuge Liang was full of energy and majestic, and they guessed that he was here to lobby.

Zhang Zhao first used words to provoke Zhuge Liang and said:"I am a young man from Jiangdong. I have long heard that Mr. Gao Wolongzhong is better than Guan Zhong and Le Yi.

Is this true?

Zhuge Liang said:"This is a comparison that is not worth mentioning in my life.""

Zhang Zhao said:"I heard that Liu Yuzhou visited Mr. Liu in his thatched cottage three times.

He was lucky enough to get Mr. He thought he was like a fish in water and wanted to sweep Jingxiang.

Now that Jingzhou belongs to Cao Cao overnight, I wonder what Mr. Cao’s plans are? Zhuge Liang secretly thought that Zhang Zhao is Sun Quan’s number one adviser.

If I don’t stump him first, how can I persuade Sun Quan.

So Zhuge Liang replied:"In my opinion, taking the land of Jingxiang is as easy as flipping the palm of my hand."

My lord, Liu Yuzhou, puts benevolence and righteousness first and cannot bear to seize the inheritance of the same clan, so he strongly refuses.

Liu Cong, this kid, listened to the words of the traitor and surrendered secretly, which made Cao Cao so rampant.

Now my lord is stationing troops in Jiangxia. He has ulterior motives that cannot be known by ordinary people.

Zhang Zhao said:"If this is the case, Mr.'s words and actions are inconsistent with each other."

Mr. Guan Zhong and Le Yi compare themselves. Guan Zhong assisted Duke Huan of Qi, dominated the princes, and helped the world.

Le (Wang Qian's) Yi supported the weak Yan State and captured more than 70 cities in Qi State.

These two people are really talented in helping the world.

In the thatched cottage, the gentleman just smiled proudly and sat in danger with his knees crossed.

Now that he is assisting Liu Yuzhou, he should bring benefits and remove harm to the people and destroy the rebels.

Before Liu Yuzhou got his husband, he was still able to dominate the world and segregate cities.

Now that Liu Yuzhou has got a husband, everyone is looking forward to it.

Even children who are three feet tall say that he will be more powerful than a tiger and will see the revival of the Han Dynasty and the imminent demise of the Cao family.

There are no old ministers of the imperial court or hermits in the mountains and forests who will not wait and see.

People all think that the time has come to clear away the dark clouds in the sky, look up to the glory of the sun and the moon, save the people from fire and water, and govern the country in order from their couches.

Why since Liu Yuzhou got his husband, when Cao Bing came, he abandoned his helmet and armor and fled.

On the contrary, he could not repay Liu Biao and appease the people; on the other hand, he could not help the orphans and defend the territory.

Abandoning Xinye, he fled from Fancheng, was defeated in Dangyang, and rushed to Xiakou, with no place to stay.

After Liu Yuzhou got his husband, he was not as good as before.

Is this the case for Guan Zhong and Le Yi? I speak frankly, don’t be offended!

After Zhuge Liang heard this, he laughed dumbly and said,"How can a sparrow know the ambition of a swan?"

Just like when a person is seriously ill, he should drink porridge first, and then take it with medicine.

After the internal organs are harmonized and the body gradually recovers, he should then eat meat to replenish the body.

If strong medicine is given to treat the disease, the root cause of the disease can be removed and the person can fully recover. If you don't wait for the Qi pulse to relax and then give strong medicine and strong taste, it will be really difficult to recover.

My lord Liu Yuzhou was defeated in Runan in the past and temporarily relied on Liu Biao. He had less than a thousand troops and only a few generals Guan Yu, Zhang Fei and Zhao Yun.

This is just like when the disease is at its peak, in a small remote county in the Xinye Mountains, with few people and food shortages,

Yuzhou is just a temporary shelter. Will it really stay here forever?.
