"So many people have been lost, and the third brother is still behind. I don't know the dangers of life and death. There are no soldiers to support me. The second brother is injured again. What should I do?!" Liu Bei cried: "With no soldiers available, it is difficult for the military advisor to bother so much.

, the preparation... is useless, so many soldiers and horses are chasing after it!"

"It's not my lord's fault that the pursuers are unjust." Zhuge Liang said: "We are going to Bashu now, and these people are enough. The most urgent thing is to take a rest before continuing to move forward and leaving Dangyang. Don't worry, lord. Liang

You have your own strategy to retreat from the pursuing troops!"

Liu Bei saw that his heart was at peace, and he said some heartfelt words. Only then did he feel at ease, and came to see Guan Yu.

Guan Yu had already pulled out the arrow and treated the wound.

Of course, the conditions during the escape were not very good, so he lost a lot of blood and there was a shortage of medicinal materials, so he just stopped the bleeding casually. Guan Yu was strong and had strong resistance, and no vital parts were hurt, so he was fine. However.

Guan Yu's face was gloomy, not because he was in pain, but because he was upset that he could not defeat Ma Chao.

How could Liu Bei not know Guan Yu’s arrogance?!

Knowing the knot in his heart, he took the right medicine and said: "Second brother, why should I compare with that Ma Chao?! Although this boy is fierce, he is just like Lu Bu, an unjust person, and he is different from the second brother. The second brother is loyal and righteous."

Ma Chao cannot compare with his strength! In terms of strength, if the second brother is not injured, how can he not even be able to defeat him?!"

Guan Yu's heart softened and he nodded and said: "It's useless for Yu. If he could kill Ma Chao, he wouldn't be running around in such a mess."

"It's not my second brother's fault that the enemy is strong," Liu Bei said.

Guan Yu lowered his head in shame. This shame made him unable to raise his head.

Guan Yu is an extremely arrogant person, and an arrogant person has the dignity of an arrogant person. Of course, Ma Chao is an old enemy that he can never let go of. Not to mention now, if we meet in the future, we will definitely decide whether to win or not.

"When we meet again in the future, we will definitely avenge our past humiliation and wash away this humiliation," Guan Yu said: "Brother, it was my late return that led to the defeat..."

"Second brother, don't blame yourself. It's Bei's fault. If he hadn't entered Jingzhou, why would he be like this!" Liu Bei said with red eyes, "Second brother, rest first!"

Guan Yu was indeed tired, had lost too much blood, and his face was pale. He hugged Liu Bei's fists, then closed his eyes and rested against the hillside.

When Liu Bei saw his injury, he felt hurt for him!

He walked to Zhuge's side and saw that Zhuge Liang had also stayed up all night. He felt really sad. The military advisor had spent a lot of time waiting for him to come back! This incident was like shedding skin and replacing bones.

Pain and suffering!

Liu Bei said: "The military advisor also took the opportunity to rest for a while."

Zhuge Liang shook his head and said: "How can we feel at ease when we have not left the desperate position and have not thrown away the pursuers?! My lord has worked hard all the way back and rests first."

Liu Bei shook his head, where can he rest? People are so tired that their hearts can't rest. But now the soldiers need to adjust their rest, otherwise they won't be able to go far if they just rush on the road!

Zhuge Liang said: "My lord is worried that if the pursuers do not retreat, our army will be worried?!"

Liu Bei nodded and said: "I don't know what the military advisor can do to retreat the enemy?!"

"Cai Mao and Ma Chao are at odds with each other! The pursuers from all directions must have their own motives. Even the pursuit has its limits. As long as you avoid their sharp edges, you will be safe and sound," Zhuge Liang said.

Liu Bei said: "Cai Mao and Ma Chao will fight?!"

Zhuge Liang said: "As long as you lure me, if you don't want to fight, you will fight!"

Liu Bei understood immediately and stopped asking questions. Zhuge Liang must have already arranged everything.

He was very impressed in his heart. He felt that he had won Zhuge Liang, and he felt very satisfied. It was a pity that the loss of soldiers was like this. Otherwise... Liu Bei felt a pain in his heart when he thought about it.

"There is no need to worry if a military strategist takes precautions, but preparation is holding him back," Liu Bei said, "I don't know if it will go smoothly when I go to Bashu... Just thinking about it makes my heart burn like a fire."

"Liu Zhang is not difficult to defeat. Soldiers are the worst strategy, but strategy is the best strategy," Zhuge Liang said, "I will talk to the lord again after we leave here. Now we have to leave Dangyang as soon as possible!"

Liu Bei nodded, knowing that he had a plan in mind, and his panicked heart gradually calmed down.

No matter the way forward or the way back, once you have come this far, there is no reason to look back. It is nothing more than running forward even if you die!

"If everything goes well, and General Zhang goes well, he will be able to wait until he returns. With General Zhang following closely, there will be no need to worry about the pursuers..." Zhuge Liang said.

Upon hearing this, Liu Bei's heart turned from worry to joy. As long as Zhang Fei could come back smoothly and pick them up, he would feel more at ease here and would not have to worry about the rear.

He sincerely said that he would leave everything to the military advisor!

Zhuge Liang has always been meticulous about everything, and he likes people who take charge of things. When he saw that Liu Bei was trustworthy and did not panic, he was determined.

Naturally, Zhuge Liang also wanted to say something to tell him not to worry. This time he left, it was true that birds can fly in the sky, and fish can leap in the sea, and that the fish can turn into a dragon, just like a dragon leaving the abyss and going deep into the sea, a journey in the sky and the sea.

Also...

The two principals and ministers were able to count them all and inspected the guards. As soon as Liu Bei sat down, a scout reported back and said: "The pursuers are camped thirty miles away."

Zhuge Liang said: "Is there a vanguard battalion coming to chase?!"

"Not yet..." the scout said.

Zhuge then sent for people.

"Lu Qing's battalion, Guo Niangzi's army, Ma Chao's team, plus Cai Hao..." Zhuge Liang said: "We must be on guard against each other and suspicious of each other. In this case, just a gentle push will not be a big deterrent!"<

/p>

"Cai Mao must be afraid that Ma Chao will be attacked from behind, so he does not dare to pursue again and refuses to be the vanguard," Liu Bei said.

Zhuge Liang nodded and said: "Pang Tong is cautious and must ask Ma Chao to be careful about ambush. He is unwilling to ask Ma Chao to defeat many cavalry, and he is afraid of being unjust. Therefore, he has concerns, and Guo Niangzi's army is even more so. Xuzhou sends troops

He will intercept our army, but he will not chase the lord to the end."

Xuzhou soldiers’ original intention was to kill someone with a borrowed knife!

When Liu Bei heard this, the situation was clear.

Zhuge Liang said: "You still have to be careful. Ma Chao always doesn't play his cards according to common sense. He has a hot temper. If he gets angry, he may lead his troops to kill him regardless of a thought! So, there is still a tough battle to be fought!"

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading!

Liu Bei naturally did not dare to take any chances, but sighed: "Ma Chao is so good at producing generals, what a pity..."

Zhuge Liang saw that he had a worried look on his face and said: "Ma Chao is young and has not yet been determined. He is also reckless and has many battles without success. It is hard to say whether he will form an alliance with Xuzhou in the future!"

"What if we form an alliance and help Xuzhou?!" Liu Bei's worry was simply unpredictable.

Zhuge Liang scratched the ground with a dead branch and said: "If this is the case, the Lu family's foundation will be connected to the sea in the east, wide in the west and northwest, spanning the two places, and the two will attack each other, and the middle will be captured, and its power will be swallowed up.

In the northern country, we can cut off the Bashu region and cut off the Jiangdong region in a day or night!"

When Liu Bei heard this, he stared blankly at the sketch on the ground, "Swallow the Northern Kingdom, cut off the territory of Bashu, and cut off the territory east of the Yangtze River!?"

"Does the military counselor have a plan to break the alliance between the two?!" Liu Bei said: "In the past, Bei could have planned to provoke Lu Bu and his daughter to turn against each other. However, the plan never worked... Now, we are at our wits' end. Seeing that Ma Chao has also been betrayed by him.

Recruiting and preparation are so worrying!”

Why didn't it work?! Liu Bei would never give up at first. As soon as Lu Bu and his daughter went out to fight and led the army, there would naturally be dissatisfaction. But his plan failed because Xuzhou didn't go the way he thought it would.

Lu Bu had Sima Yi by his side, and Lu Xian formed another army. Not only did they not have any quarrels with each other, but they became stronger due to their respective reorganization.

But if the military is not good enough, even in political affairs in Xuzhou, how much resentment can arise.

But Lu Xian made his plan fail again. Because she divided the power of Xuzhou and gave it to diehard loyalists! Then she only needed to capture them firmly, and these people, in turn, restrained many diehards.

Loyalty extends out and becomes stronger.

The people in charge of Xuzhou's general affairs are all human beings. They are always unwilling to break the basic rules. Let alone Lu Bu feeling that Lu Xian is fighting for power, he doesn't feel it at all. It's not that Lu Bu can't feel it, but that

These people behave in a well-behaved manner and have nothing to criticize about themselves. This means that even if Liu Bei wanted to provoke them, he would not be able to provoke them.

For example, military information, no matter how big or small it is, must be submitted to Lu Bu for his seal. Whether Lu Bu looks at it or not, that is another matter. But no one can say that the affairs in Xuzhou were arrogant and that Lu Xian took the power.

Lu Xian didn't even show that she had taken power... Her rule and skills were subtle and silent, but her decisions were not necessarily just formal expressions.

When discussing and making decisions, no matter how big or small they are, they all have to be reported to Lu Bu. Even though Lu Bu is impatient to listen, he still has to report them. Lu Bu is often annoyed to death by these official documents. But even if he doesn't approve, he still has to approve, which is just one glance and ten lines.

Just write it down after reading it. If you ask him afterwards, how can he remember it clearly?!

But it’s all regulated anyway, and there’s nothing wrong with it.

Lu Bu just couldn't remember it anymore and didn't even bother to read it. Based on this criticism, if someone fooled Lu Bu, Lu Bu would roll his eyes. Believe it or not?! Even if he wanted to make a fuss about it, he couldn't.

Lu Xian makes no mistakes, leaves no clues, does not violate filial piety, and makes no mistakes. This is the real brilliance of Lu Xian.

Looking at the strength of the world, the youngest son of Xuzhou, the invisible ruler in the future, can undoubtedly only be Lu Xian.

Even if Lu Bu points out that it’s not her, who can recognize her?!

When Liu Bei saw Sima Yi following Lu Bu, he gave up. He knew that this plan was stillborn and would never succeed!

But are you willing to do so?!

I will never be reconciled.

If the father and daughter are in the same place and their teeth touch stones, no matter how close they are, they will inevitably have resentment over time. But Lu Xian is smart. She became invisible. She handed Lu Bu into Sima Yi's hands.

However, who can deny that it is she who really holds the Xuzhou political power?!

What is talent, what is skill, this is, turning your hands into clouds, turning your hands into rain, invisible threads, holding Xuzhou firmly, including Lu Bu!

However, Lu Bu is not the kind of suspicious person, nor is he the kind of person who can play with power. He can't even feel it. This person just lacks a brain. He doesn't bother to care about many things. He only asks the military advisor.

Go, ask Lu Xian, go ask Chen Xiang, go ask Jia Xu...

If this kind of thing were placed on a loving father, which one could bear it?! Can Liu Meng have the sole power of his children in the future? Can Liu Biao?! He has been suppressing his son. As for Yuan Shao, he also knows that the two sons have a balance.

Fighting each other to check and balance, Cao Cao is even more impossible...
