After being abandoned by Liu Bei, Cao Cao begged me to be a military adviser

Chapter 248 Liu Bei divides into two groups, Zhuge Liang's strategy

"Ah!"

Liu Bei, who was at the junction of Nanzhong and Xichuan, sneezed for no reason.

"My lord, are you alright?" Zhuge Liang asked Liu Bei with concern.

"No problem!" Liu Bei waved his hand as a signal, and then asked Zhuge Liang: "Master, in three days, our army will be able to enter Nanzhong. If you want to destroy Meng Huo, what is your strategy?"

Zhuge Liang shook his feather fan lightly: "My lord, Meng Huo doesn't recognize the art of war, so it's easy for our army to defeat him!"

Liu Bei's headquarters had more than [-] soldiers and horses. Before he went to the Southern Expedition, he borrowed [-] soldiers and horses from Liu Zhang, and together with the [-] Wuxi barbarians under Shamoke, he had a total of [-] soldiers and horses.

Zhuge Liang's plan for Liu Bei was to use these 5 people to enter Nanzhong to conquer Menghuo, and then look for opportunities to counterattack Yizhou and occupy Shuzhong.

Hearing Zhuge Liang's words, Liu Bei shook his head: "Military Master, Meng Huo is quite prestigious in Nanzhong, killing him may make it difficult to govern Nanzhong. I intend to use Meng Huo to govern Nanzhong!" "

Before Zhuge Liang could answer, Mi Zhu joined the Chinese army.

"My lord, there is news from Chengdu that Liu Zhang is going to attack Zhang Lu with Cao Cao!"

"What?" Liu Bei was shocked: "Liu Zhang wants to attack Zhang Lu with Cao Cao?"

"Exactly!" Mi Zhu nodded.

Liu Bei turned his head to look at Zhuge Liang, the smile on the latter's face had gradually disappeared.

"My lord, Cao Cao asked Liu Zhang to attack Zhang Lu. This is a strategy to drive away wolves and tigers!"

"Killing wolves and tigers?" Liu Bei was puzzled.

Zhuge Liang said: "In the Weinan War, Cao Cao defeated more than [-] troops from the Yongliang Division. At this time, the soldiers were at their peak. Therefore, Cao Cao Sheng must march into Hanzhong and let Liu Zhang attack Zhang Lu. Cao Cao wants to reap the benefits of the fisherman!"

Liu Bei said: "Cao Cao won Hanzhong, so Yizhou may not be able to keep it!"

"That's right!" Zhuge nodded, "If Liu Zhang insists on attacking Zhang Lu, my lord might as well retreat immediately, and seize the throne immediately when Liu Zhang is defeated!"

Liu Bei shook his head: "Liu Jiyu is my clan, he has no faults in Yizhou, how can I take his prefecture position? What's more, I have promised him to enter Nanzhong!"

"Hey!" Zhuge Liang sighed: "If my lord insists on this, I have another plan!"

Liu Bei hurriedly cupped his hands: "Please also ask the words of the military advisor!"

Zhuge Liang shook the feather fan lightly: "My lord, Tong Yide, led three thousand troops back to Chengdu to dissuade Liu Zhang from sending troops. Yun Chang and I continue to march into Nanzhong. If Yun Chang accidentally kills Meng Huo, please forgive me, my lord!"

At this point, Liu Bei had to nod his head and agreed: "I will return to Chengdu with Yide immediately, and the matter of Nanzhong will be discussed by the military division and Yun Chang, so don't ask me!"

"Obey!" Zhuge Liang clasped his fists to signal.

Early the next morning, Liu Bei led Zhang Fei back with [-] cavalry.

After entering Chengdu, Liu Bei first found Fazheng.

"Xiaozhi, Liu Jiyu really wants to hit Zhang Lu?"

Fazheng shook his head: "Mr. Xuande doesn't know, it's not that I want to attack Zhang Lu, but Zhang Lu wants to attack my lord!"

Liu Bei: "This?"

Fazheng sighed: "Zhang Wei appointed Ma Chao as the vanguard, and has already marched towards Fushuiguan. Our army is preparing for battle!"

Liu Bei shook his head: "Ma Chao is extremely brave, can any general win in Hanzhong?"

Fazheng also shook his head: "There is no general in Shu who can fight against him, but since Xuande has returned, why worry about Ma Chao not being defeated?"

Zhang Fei, who was standing by the side, smiled: "Brother, I understand, Liu Zhang's face is swollen to look like a fat man, and now Fushui Pass may not be able to hold, we have to save him!"

Liu Bei shook his head: "Yide, stop talking nonsense!"

Fazheng said: "Mr. Xuande, what Yide said is not without reason!"

Liu Bei said, "Liu Jiyu treats me like a brother and sister. If Yizhou is in trouble, I will stand up for myself!"

Fa Zheng asked, "Where are Kong Ming and Yun Chang?"

Liu Bei said: "I returned to Chengdu with Yide, and the military division and Yun Chang went to conquer Nanzhong Menghuo!"

"Okay!" Fazheng nodded: "It's good that one army is divided into two groups. If both groups of soldiers and horses win, Duke Xuande will create a great achievement in Xichuan. At that time, the master of Yizhou will be none other than you!"

"It's too early to talk about this!" Liu Bei waved his hand: "Xiao Zhi, take me to see Liu Jiyu immediately!"

"Obey!" Fazheng cupped his fists, and immediately went to see Liu Zhang to explain the matter.

When Liu Zhang learned that Liu Bei was back, he went out of the mansion excitedly to meet Liu Bei.

"Xuande, you came at the right time!"

Liu Bei bowed and saluted: "Bei wanted to dissuade the emperor from sending troops to attack Zhang Lu. He learned that Zhang Lu violated our situation first, so he came here to help!"

"Xuande, Xuande, you really are a timely help!" Liu Zhang excitedly helped Liu Bei up.

Fazheng hurriedly said: "My lord, Zhang Yide, the third younger brother of the emperor's uncle, has the title of the enemy of ten thousand people. This person can fight against Ma Chao!"

Liu Zhang asked: "Xuande is back, what about Nanzhong?"

Liu Bei explained again: "Leave it to the military adviser Zhuge Liang and my second brother Guan Yu to deal with it!"

"Soldiers are divided into two groups, without delay, Xuande is courageous!" Liu Zhang nodded and sighed sincerely.

Liu Bei immediately knelt down on one knee: "Brother Emperor, I am willing to be the vanguard, and lead my headquarters to fight Ma Chao, to protect the environment and the people!"

"With Xuande's help, why be afraid of Ma Chao?" Liu Zhang laughed.

Immediately he appointed Zhang Fei as the vanguard and Liu Bei as the supervisor of the army.

The same governor Zhang Ren led one hundred thousand troops to Fushuiguan to face Ma Chao.

Three days later, the army set off from Chengdu and went straight to Fushui Pass.

Before Liu Bei left, he specially sent Mi Fang to Nanzhong to deliver a message to Zhuge Liang, explaining the matter.

When he took Mi Fang to Nanzhong, the two armies had already set up camps to confront each other.

After joining the Chinese army, Mi Fang truthfully told the situation in Chengdu.

Guan Yu was shocked: "What? You said that Zhang Lu sent troops to attack Liu Zhang, and now my elder brother is going to help Liu Zhang guard Fushui Pass?"

"That's right, that's right!" Mi Fang nodded repeatedly, not daring to raise her head when she saw Guan Yu's imposing manner.

"Hahaha!" Zhuge Liang shook his feather fan and laughed loudly: "Good thing, good thing!"

Guan Yu was puzzled: "Military Master, is this a good thing?"

"Yes!" Zhuge nodded, "My lord repelled Ma Chao and pacified Nanzhong. These two battles are enough to bring Yizhou's soldiers and civilians back to their hearts. How can Liu Zhang sit comfortably at that time?"

Guan Yu immediately laughed when he heard the words: "It's still a military division with far-sighted thinking!"

Zhuge Liang said: "If this happens, Jiangdong's help is needed!"

Guan Yu still shook his head: "Military Master, Jiangdong is far away from us, how can we help at this time?"

"Cao Cao made a strategy to drive away wolves and tigers, and he will definitely take Hanzhong. If he then looks for an opportunity to enter Xichuan, it will ruin our great affairs!" Zhuge Liang said and stood up: "If Cao Cao marches into Hanzhong, Jiangdong suddenly sends troops to attack the Central Plains, Cao Cao will have no time Attack Xichuan, great things will happen!"

"I see!" Guan Yu nodded.

Zhuge Liang immediately said: "Mi Fang, go to Jiangdong as soon as possible, and tell Sun Quan the military situation in Chengdu area, and he will send troops!"

Mi Fang was puzzled: "Is that all? If he doesn't send troops, should he be asked to send troops?"

Zhuge Liang shook his head: "If you open your mouth, Jiangdong will send troops in the name of helping our lord. If you don't open your mouth, this is Jiangdong's own business."

"So that's it, I understand!" Mi Fang nodded heavily.

Chapter 249 Mi Fang entered Jiangdong, Jiang Gan was still tricked

A few days later, Mi Fang arrived in Jiangdong and entered Moling City.

Arranged by Zhang Zhao, he stayed at the post house that night.

In the middle of the night, Mi Fang was awakened by a knock on the door.

I thought it was someone from Jiangdong who came to see me, but when I opened the door, I saw that it was Jiang Gan.

"General Ziyi?" Mi Fang was puzzled, "What are you doing here?"

"Hahaha!" Jiang Gan laughed: "I was about to ask you why you came here, but you asked me why I came here instead!"

"Are you alright?" Mi Fang wanted to close the door to thank the guests.

Jiang Gan forced his way in.

"You?" Mi Fang pointed at Jiang Gan, extremely rude.

"What am I?" Jiang Gan said, "Although I live in Jiangdong, I know everything about the East and West Sichuans and even South and Central China!"

"Oh?" Mi Fang was surprised: "You are only a prisoner, and you still have such abilities?"

Jiang Gandao: "As I expected, you are here to persuade Sun Quan to send troops to attack the Central Plains!"

"You?" Mi Fang pointed at Jiang Gan but was speechless.

Jiang Gan smiled: "I guessed it right!"

"So what?" Mi Fang simply admitted.

Jiang Gan shook his head: "I advise you to return to Nanzhong quickly and tell your master to return to the court as soon as possible!"

"You came here just to tell me this?" Mi Fang looked at Jiang Gan in shock.

He has seen the matter of persuading surrender, but the battle is in the west, and he is persuading surrender in the east, this is the first time he has seen it.

This Jiang Gan is somewhat arrogant.

Jiang Gandao: "I know the situation in Jiangdong better than you. The governor Zhou Yu is seriously ill. Sun Quan will never send troops. The prime minister will definitely rule the world!"

"Seeing off the guests!" Mi Fang roared angrily.

"It's not too late to have a cup of tea!" Jiang Gan stood up and poured a cup of tea by himself.

But the furious Mi Fang snatched his teacup and smashed it to the ground.

"It doesn't matter if you don't drink!" Jiang Gan turned his head and left.

"Bang!" Mi Fang slammed the door hard.

Unexpectedly, Jiang Gan pushed the door open again: "If you can facilitate Liu Bei's surrender, the prime minister will never treat you badly!"

"Get lost!" Mi Fang cursed.

Jiang Gan trotted away all the way, returned to Zhou Mansion in a carriage, ran back to his room quietly and fell asleep.

His whereabouts have long been controlled by the Zhou family.

When Zhou Xun got the news, he immediately went out of the house to report the matter to his father Zhou Yu in another courtyard outside the city.

After Zhou Yu resigned from the position of the governor, he recuperated in another hospital outside the city.

But in fact, Zhou Yu was dealing with military affairs in the study.

"Father!" Zhou Xun entered the room and gestured to Zhou Yu.

Zhou Yu asked, "What's the matter?"

Zhou Xundao: "As you expected, Jiang Gan went to see Mi Fang and told him that I will never send troops from Jiangdong!"

"Hahaha!" Zhou Yu laughed: "Okay, well done!"

Zhou Xun was puzzled: "Father wanted to take advantage of Cao Cao's conquest of Hanzhong to send troops to attack and counterattack Cao Cao. At this time, Mi Fang came to help me in Jiangdong. Why did Jiang Gan stop Mi Fang? Do you still have to agree?"

Zhou Yu still laughed, and turned to look at Lu Meng: "Ziming, tell Xun'er the reason for this!"

"Yes!" Lu Meng nodded, and immediately explained to Zhou Xun: "Cao Cao wants to take Hanzhong Tiger and see Yizhou, Liu Bei wants to take Yizhou, so I have to send troops from Jiangdong to contain Cao Cao!"

Zhou Xundao: "Sun and Liu are originally allies. Wouldn't it be better to join forces at this time?"

Zhou Yu shook her head: "Xun'er, you are still too young!"

Lu Meng explained again: "Our army attacked Cao in the name of helping Liu Bei, so Liu Bei owes me Jiangdong favors, and the debt can only be collected in the future!"

"This?" Zhou Xun was surprised. He didn't expect there to be such twists and turns.

Zhou Yu said: "Xun'er will go back to the mansion earlier, and after Mi Fang sees the lord and Jiang Gan tomorrow, you will invite him to my small courtyard!"

"Jiang Gan still wants to see him?" Zhou Xun was puzzled.
