    "Forehead¡­¡­"

    Liu Bei's performance made Yang Xiu a little confused. He thought that Liu Bei would be quite surprised if he said something surprising.

    "Dezu, my lord please continue."

    When the atmosphere was a little awkward, Fazheng spoke to ease the situation.

    Yang Xiu nodded and continued: "Uncle Liu Huang, today, King Liu Ke of Dongyang occupies half of the country and has great intentions of annexing the world. Uncle Huang must make plans early."

    "Have you made plans earlier? Why can't Bei understand what Dezu is saying? Both King Dongyang and Bei are members of the Han royal family, and they are both thinking about the Han Dynasty."

    Liu Bei laughed deliberately.

    Fazheng Ye said: "Yes, Dezu, King Dongyang and my lord are both from the royal family."

    A smile flashed in Yang Xiu's eyes. Liu Bei and Fazheng said this. On the surface, they meant that they did not want to be enemies with King Dongyang, but what they really meant was to ask Cao Cao to give them bargaining chips, which was the principle of blackmail.

    However, Yang Xiu¡¯s mission on this trip was to try to persuade Liu Bei to send troops to contain Liu Ke, King of Dongyang.  As long as Liu Bei is willing to send troops, even if the lion asks for land, money and food, Cao Cao will agree.

    Thinking of this, Yang Xiu simply got straight to the point.

    "Uncle Huang, Mr. Xiaozhi. King Liu Ke of Dongyang is so ambitious that he will not care about the feelings of the same clan. What's more, the uncle occupies the land of Tianfu in Yizhou. In the past, the great ancestor Liu Bang raised troops from Bashu and aspired to the world! Could it be that the emperor's uncle just  Don¡¯t you have this intention?¡±

    "Yang Xiu, what do you mean by this!" Liu Bei pretended to be angry, his expression gloomy.

    "Uncle Emperor, don't be anxious." Yang Xiu said with a smile as if nothing had happened; "Even if Uncle Emperor doesn't have this intention, doesn't Sun Ce of Jingzhou have ambitions? Not long ago, Sun Ce raided Shangyong and gathered ten people.  With an army of 50,000, he has the intention to annex Yizhou."

    Hearing this, Liu Bei's expression softened slightly and he said.

    "Then, Master Yide, what should I do?"

    Yang Xiu got off the slope and said hurriedly: "Of course we are keeping the enemy at bay. The emperor should immediately send troops to defeat Sun Ce!"

    "Oops." At this time, Fazheng suddenly sighed and said with embarrassment, "Dezu, you don't know that if you don't want to send troops unless it's my lord, you have a small army with few generals and insufficient food and grass. In addition, Sun Ce is from Dongyang.  Wang Liuke¡¯s allies, I am mainly sending troops, which will inevitably anger King Dongyang, and the gains outweigh the losses.¡±

    Yang Xiu curled up his lips and thought, isn't he just trying to blackmail him? He's just pretending.

    "Xiaozhi, please speak frankly. Since my lord, the King of Wei, wants to ask the emperor to send troops, my lord is willing to help the emperor solve these problems."

    "Okay!" Fazheng's face changed faster than the sky. One second he was bitter, and the next second he was smiling.

    "Dezu, my lord's request is very simple. The land of Tianshui, Longxi and Nan'an counties, plus one million dan of grain."

    "What! You are taking advantage of the fire!" Yang Xiu's expression suddenly changed. He was mentally prepared.

    I thought that Liu Bei wanted at most one county and a large amount of grain.  Who knew that Liu Bei's appetite would be so huge? In the land of three counties, he could have millions of dan of grain!  This is simply cutting flesh from Cao Cao!

    Liu Bei sneered in his heart when he saw Yang Xiu looking like his tail had been stepped on.  Aren¡¯t you, Cao Cao, crazy? Now you¡¯re not demanding it from me.

    "Ahem." Fazheng coughed twice and asked, "What? Does Dezu feel that our lord's conditions are biased? If so, then my lord might as well stand still and wait for the opportunity."

    Yang Xiu was anxious and said hurriedly: "No, no, no, the emperor's conditions are very reasonable. Our King of Wei promises that as long as the emperor sends troops, all three counties of Tianshui will belong to the emperor, and the food will be shipped from Luoyang immediately."

    Before he left, Cao Cao told him that if Liu Bei could be allowed to send troops, no matter what the cost.

    "But, having said that, when it comes time to let Cao Cao cut off his flesh, I'm afraid he won't be so generous. At that time, Yang Xiu will undoubtedly become Cao Cao's punching bag.

    It¡¯s better to be a punching bag than to fail to complete the task.

    Subsequently, Yang Xiu signed a contract with Liu Bei and said that Liu Bei could send people to take over the three counties now, but food would have to wait for some time.

    Liu Bei was naturally smiling. He had picked up the land of three counties and millions of stones of food for nothing. Anyone would be happy if it were his money.

    After sending Yang Xiu away, Liu Bei listened to his counselor Fa Zheng and ordered Guan Yu to be the commander-in-chief, Wei Yan to be the vanguard, Zhang Fei and Li Yan to be the deputy generals, and he led 200,000 troops to attack Shangyong.

    With Liu Bei¡¯s participation in the war, this war covers the entire territory of the Han Dynasty.The war has reached a fever pitch.

    Sun Ce of Shangyong heard that Liu Bei was bringing troops to invade, so he immediately summoned Zhou Yu and Sun Quan to discuss.

    "My Lord, Liu Bei suddenly invaded with his troops. What should we do?"

    Zhou Yu pondered for a moment and said with a smile: "My lord, I think it was Cao Cao who approached Liu Bei and promised huge profits, which made Liu Bei suddenly join the war. However, Cao Cao can find allies, and my lord also has allies."

    Sun Ce suddenly realized and said, "Gong Jin is talking about Liu Ke, King of Dongyang."

    "Exactly." Zhou Yu said.

    "When someone comes, immediately send an envoy to Chenliu to ask for help from King Dongyang."

    "No."

    ¡­¡­

    A few days later, at the Yangzhou Army camp in Chenliu, Liu Ke saw the envoy sent by Sun Ce. After listening to him talk about how powerful Liu Bei was, Liu Ke had the envoy taken away to rest.

    A group of civil servants and generals were summoned to discuss the matter of rescuing Sun Ce.

    "My lord, I'm just a big-eared thief. Please give me my order. Just give me 10,000 soldiers and horses. I can kill Liu Bei, who has no way to go to heaven and no way to the earth!"

    When Lu Bu heard that there was a battle, he immediately shouted anxiously.

    "Fengxian, you ambush Xia Houlian before, so the credit this time should be given to me. You can't steal it from me." Dian Wei said angrily.

    "Okay, okay, Ziman Fengxian, don't argue, just give me the credit." Taishi Ci also stepped forward and said.

    Liu Ke looked at this scene and shrugged helplessly. Sometimes, having too many generals is a problem. When there is a war, there will be a group of people vying for credit.  It made his ears buzz every time.

    "Don't argue. I haven't said that I want to help Sun Ce yet. Why are you so anxious?" Liu Ke shouted loudly.

    Only then did the generals calm down.

    "Lord, I have a plan to take the Si River!"

    Suddenly, Zhuge Liang and Guo Jia said in unison.  The two were stunned for a moment, then looked at each other and smiled, their eyes full of cunning.

    Liu Ke was also amused by the two of them and couldn't help but said: "Kong Ming, Feng Xiao, you two really have a good understanding of each other. Tell me, what is the plan to win Sishui Pass?"

    Zhuge Liang and Guo Jia smiled slightly and said at the same time.

    "False way to defeat Guo!" (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
