Liu Biao's current situation really made Liu Bei sigh with emotion. He never imagined that Brother Jing Sheng, who had been smart all his life and who single-handedly suppressed all the wealthy families in Jingzhou, could be so confused in his old age.

"If you continue to cut off, you will suffer chaos!" Zhuge Liang also sighed helplessly, and then continued towards Zhou Buji, "We already know this here in Jingzhou, but Cao Mengde... you can continue to talk about it."

After hearing Kong Ming's words, Zhou Bujie also looked a little embarrassed, because he thought of some not-so-good past events.

"Cao Mengde... He exceeded everyone's expectations. This year he successfully captured the entire northern land."

The expressions of no one present here have changed at this point, because it is no longer a secret. Everyone has been surprised. Yuan Benchu, who was the No. 1 prince in the world at that time, did not expect that he would give birth to such three things.

"Although Yuan Shao has experienced the four battles of Yanjin, Baima, Guandu, and Cangting, he still has sufficient knowledge, and there will definitely be no shortage of capable generals under their command.

It's just... I didn't expect that they would die from killing each other. They really brought it upon themselves, and they are going to die."

"Okay, what should I pay attention to about Cao Mengde?" Liu Bei interrupted Zhou Buyi's emotion and asked him to get to the point quickly.

"Although Cao Mengde pacified the four northern states in this battle, it was not completely without problems, that is, his time was too urgent.

After all, the four northern states have been governed by Yuan Shao for many years, and Yuan Shao has always been benevolent in governing the people, so Cao Mengde is not popular in Jizhou.

If it were normal, he could still slowly try to do it and slowly win back the hearts of the people of Jizhou, but now that Liu Jingsheng's body is declining day by day, Cai Mao and others will definitely inform him of this.

As a result, he will definitely be extremely anxious. In order to prevent Jingzhou from falling into our hands or the Jiangdong Sun family, Cao Mengde will definitely not feel at ease and stabilize the four northern states.

Instead, he will go directly south to Jingzhou with the momentum of great victory, and immediately mobilize his troops to come here the moment Liu Jingsheng dies!

This is the opportunity I've been waiting for."

Liu Bei looked at Zhou Buyi in front of him, and finally frowned and turned to look at Zhuge Liang.

"Let Liang do the rest." Kong Ming couldn't help but chuckle, and then walked to the map, "The speed of Cao Mengde's battle was indeed beyond our expectations.

At the same time, Zhang Liao, the general under Cao Mengde, made the greatest contribution, followed by Yue Jin and beheaded the generals first, and finally Yu Jin appeased all parties.

There are many powerful and famous generals under his command, and their strength is further improved.

But after all, the four northern states are not the Central Plains and other places, and they cannot be conquered by simple suppression. Cao Mengde also had many massacres in this battle.

As a result, even though the people are now under his command, they will inevitably feel resentment in their hearts.

In addition, Cao Mengde will not recuperate immediately, but will continue to prepare for the subsequent war. He has spent too much money on food and equipment in the past few years.

If the fight continues, it will definitely damage the foundation of the people!

But Cao Mengde has no choice. This is the closest he has ever come to unifying the world. The only option in this battle is to attack!

If we can contain his offensive in Jingzhou, it will immediately destabilize Cao Mengde's rear.

Even if Ma Teng and Han Sui in the northwest gave up their fight for the world, they would not just put down their troops and wait for death.

If Cao Mengde successfully captures Jingzhou and even Jiangdong, then Hanzhong Yizhou can naturally be conquered without a fight.

A smart man like Ma Teng will definitely make preparations and invest in the court just in case.

But if he fails to capture Jingzhou, then the people in the north will cause turmoil, the northwest will be unstable, and if there is a problem in the rear, Cao Mengde will definitely not fight to the end.

Once they evacuate, we will be able to completely stabilize Jingzhou.

This is the opportunity I've been waiting for."

"So, what the military advisor means is...as long as Brother Jing Sheng cannot bear it anymore, Cao Mengde will rush in regardless of anything?"

"Natural!"

"We will also take advantage of the trend and take over the land in southern Jing, and even seize Nanjun and other areas in northern Jing..."

"Of course!"

"Finally...by defeating Cao Mengde in Nanyang County, can Bei's prestige in Jingzhou be unparalleled for a while, and he can capture the entire Jingzhou?"

"Yes..."

"Huh~" Liu Bei looked at Zhuge Liang and said softly in a kind tone, "Then how do we win?"

"Fight to the death!"

"..." At this moment, the hall was divided into two groups. Among them, Liu Bei, Guan Yu, and Zhang Fei had ugly expressions. Although they didn't say a word, there was always a sense of fear in their eyes.

But Kong Ming, Yuan Huan and others... looked like it was natural.

"I'm afraid Kong Ming doesn't know something, but Cao Mengde..."

"Of course we know Duke Cao's strength." This time it was Yuan Huan who suddenly stood up, "But what can we do even so?"

Yuan Huan looked straight at Liu Bei in front of him, without any flinch or reservation.

"Yao Qing's meaning is clear. It's just that Cao Mengde's rear position is unstable. If we wait at that moment to capture Jingnan and other places..."

"We don't need to worry about such a problem!" Zhuge Liang understood Liu Bei's worries, "Master, you need to know that I have been waiting for several years to slowly plan for it, and the land in Jingnan has fallen into our hands.

The people in Jingnan have a good impression of us, and the wealthy families in Jingnan have a very good attitude towards us, and they will definitely not deviate from it easily.

In addition, we also have the nominal support of the eldest son Liu Qi.

With their presence, our retreat is much more stable than that of Cao Mengde, and we have worked hard in Jiaozhou, Jingnan over the past few years. Our troops and horses are well trained, and our food, grass and baggage are also more abundant.

If there is a stalemate, we can persist, but Cao Mengde may not be able to.

These are our advantages..."

"But Cao Cao... is not afraid of Kong Ming's jokes. Bei has fought with Cao Cao for many years. Although Cao Cao did not dare to claim victory in every battle, he even lost more than he won before.

But he made gains in every battle, and Bei...never benefited from the Cao thieves."

After Liu Bei finished speaking, he shook his head helplessly. Guan Yu and Zhang Fei beside him no longer had any of the arrogance and recklessness they once had. After all, being defeated in every battle for so many years was really a big mountain weighing on them.

Afraid!

This is an unavoidable hurdle for Liu Bei's subordinates, and it can even be said that it is inevitable from top to bottom. The pressure brought by the first princes in the world was also felt by Cao Mengde's subordinates.

It's just that Liu Bei's men, at least, did not surrender or even flee in large numbers like them...

"My lord, are you afraid?"

"...Yes!" Liu Bei admitted the matter simply.

"Then my lord...you still dare to fight?"

"Dare!" Liu Bei also did not hesitate.
