There are gentlemen in the Three Kingdoms

When he said this, Liu Bei's eyes were a little moist.

Guan Yu slammed his fist against the wall, saying, "Brother, we have to avenge third brother no matter what we say!"

Chapter 874 Liu Bei's Distress

Hearing Guan Yu's words, Liu Bei showed a wry smile on his face.

"Second brother, let's talk about it after you look outside the city." Liu Bei reached out his hand helplessly, pointing to the outside of the city.

Guan Yu frowned, turned his head and looked outside the city.

However, on the other side of the river near Jiangling City, there is a dense forest lined with tents of the Jinling Army.

Boundless as far as the eye can see, there are huge crowds of people.

Liu Bei showed a bitter smile, and said, "At the moment we don't even have a clear understanding of our own situation, how can we still send troops to save the third brother? Our land of Jingzhou is probably doomed."

Speaking of this, Liu Bei paused and said: "Second brother, you and I, this time is probably over."

Guan Yu's face tightened, he strode forward, pulled Liu Bei up from the ground, and said, "Brother! Why are you so depressed? No matter how many difficulties our brothers have encountered in the past, you will not be discouraged. How did it become like this now?"

Liu Bei looked at Guan Yu and sighed: "Even if it was a failure, I knew where we should go and where we should gain a foothold. But now that the world is in the hands of potters, and even the third brother has fallen, where else can you and I go?" Could it be that we can still travel across the sea to foreign countries and fail?"

Guan Yu was suddenly at a loss for words.

He stood there blankly.

But Liu Bei patted him on the shoulder and said, "Second brother, guard the city for me for a while, I want to go down and walk alone."

After all, Liu Bei turned around and disappeared into Guan Yu's sight.

Liu Bei came under the city, looked up at the starry sky, and let out a long sigh of relief.

He said with emotion: "Whatever is good, what seems to be like this is good."

Just when he was a little lost and didn't know what to do, he saw an old man standing in front of him.

Liu Bei narrowed his eyes and watched carefully.

"Mr. Pound?"

Pang Degong strolled up to Liu Bei, and said helplessly, "Jingnan is lost, Zhang Fei was captured, and my nephew Pang Tong was also captured. General Liu must have known about it, right?"

Liu Bei's face was heavy, and he nodded slowly.

Duke Pang De came up to him and sighed: "My nephew was originally a great talent, but unfortunately he was born at an untimely time and could not use his talent to help the people of the world. Now he has fallen into the hands of a potter, and his death is inevitable. "

Liu Bei asked suspiciously: "I heard that the potter is a man of talent, and Pang Shiyuan is a great talent in the world. How could the potter not recruit him?"

Mr. Pang De shook his head, and said: "At this time and at that time, if my nephew returns to the potter, the potter will treat him generously, but now most of the world belongs to the potter, and he is trying to restore the world soon, but for me If someone like my nephew tried his best to block his footsteps, the pottery merchant would probably not accept him, to make an example of others, to let the world know his determination to rule the world as a pottery merchant!"

The feeling of loneliness on Liu Bei's face deepened.

He sighed and turned away.

"Mr. Xuande, you may have the last way out right now. Of course, it can also be said to be the old man's way out."

Liu Bei stood still in place all of a sudden.

He hurriedly turned his head, looked at Pang De, who had passed by him just now, and said, "A way out, is there a way out?"

Mr. Pang De nodded and said, "Yes."

Liu Bei lightly licked his dry lips and said, "Where?"

"Nishikawa."

"Xichuan?" Liu Bei pondered for a moment, then smiled wryly: "Mr. Pang, do you think that after the potters captured Jingzhou, they would not plot against Xichuan? I went there and waited for Xichuan to be captured by the potters. Where can I go?" ?”

Lord Pound shook his head.

"Mr. Xuande, this is as simple as you think. The land of Xichuan is different from Jingzhou."

Mr. Pang De slowly explained to Liu Bei: "Xichuan is far away from the Central Plains, and the transportation is inconvenient, the roads are difficult and closed, and there are dangers in the mountains and rivers. It will not be easily defeated."

Liu Bei opened his mouth in surprise.

Pang Degong said indifferently: "Yizhou's mountains and rivers are solid, and I may not be able to seize the world, but if there is no accident, it is enough to keep the land for 20 years!"

Liu Bei frowned and said, "You let me use the land of Yizhou to settle down in a corner."

Pang De was fair: "It's not about staying in a corner, but about protecting yourself wisely."

Liu Bei sighed and said, "Why did you tell me about this?"

Pang Degong was very direct: "If Xuande Gong really decides to give up Jingzhou and go to Yizhou, please take me with you."

Liu Bei was surprised and said: "You are a famous person in the world, why do you want to follow me to Yizhou? Isn't Jingzhou your hometown?"

Pang Degong sighed: "The school of the pottery merchant can detect the trust of the world. I have done so much to recommend talents for the Jingzhou court. If the pottery merchant finds out, I am afraid that the old man will not die well. There is nothing I can do about it. I had no choice but to go with you."

Liu Bei couldn't help laughing out loud.

Unexpectedly, this old boy actually found a way out for himself.

He waved his hand helplessly, and said, "Let Bei think about it again."

Lord Pang De was a little anxious: "Mr. Xuande, time waits for no one. Now Jingnan has been broken. If we wait for the soldiers and horses of the potters to arrive from Jingzhou, even if Jiangling is surrounded by water on three sides, it will not be able to protect it."

Liu Bei didn't answer him, he just waved his hand, strolled towards the top of the city again.

Guan Yu is now in accordance with Liu Bei's military order, directing the soldiers at the top of the city to prepare for the city defense in order to deal with the siege battle in the future.

At this moment, Liu Bei came up again.

When Guan Yu saw Liu Bei, he hurried forward and said, "Brother, why are you back again? Why don't you go back and rest for a while, my younger brother will arrange for you about the city defense."

Liu Bei beckoned and asked Guan Yu to come over.

The two found a place where no one was around, and Liu Bei whispered, "Second brother, I have something to discuss with you."

Guan Yu asked suspiciously, "What's the matter?"

Liu Bei then roughly repeated to Guan Yu what Pang Degong said just now.

"At present, the land of Jiangling has become a desperate place. Sooner or later, Nanjun will be slowly eaten away by pottery merchants. The land of Jingzhou will no longer be owned by me. Right now, we can only go to Yizhou. Second brother, what do you think of this proposal? ?”

After listening to Liu Bei's words, Guan Yu pondered for a long time, before he said: "The elder brother's suggestion, the younger brother is not very opposed to it, but the younger brother is not very much in favor, but there is one thing that I don't know how to deal with?"
