Becoming stronger from cutting Hu and Cao Cao

Chapter 356 Zhuge visits Liu.

Zhuo County, Zhuo County.

Zhou Yu's ship sank and blocked the river, trying to stop the Qin army's attack. At the same time, Zhuge Liang also came to Zhuojun.

Today's Zhuojun is Liu Bei's territory.However, Liu Bei is also very distressed now, and at this time he has fallen into a bottleneck.

At this time, Liu Bei's power can be said to have reached his peak period, and now he has more than [-] armored men in his hands.There are also four generals: former general Guan Yu, later general Zhang Fei, left general Wei Yan, and right general Huang Zhong.

From time to time, Liu Bei can be said to be a strong soldier, but Liu Bei also has his own worries.

Now, Liu Bei's logistics supply can be said to have a big problem. You must know that now with Beihai County Liu Bei is only two counties.If you want to rely on the land of the two counties to support 20 troops, it will be fine in a short time, but the logistics will inevitably fail in the long run.

Liu Bei's military adviser Xu Shu, also known as Shan Fu, had long seen that the 20 army was actually sucking the blood of Zhuo County and Beihai County.If he doesn't hurry up to build a larger territory, then Liu Bei is likely to be dragged down by his 20 army.

In fact, Liu Bei's current situation is very embarrassing. His two counties are not many, and Beihai and Zhuojun are thousands of miles away.And in Zhuojun, Li Chen is on the left and Cao Cao is on the right.

Without supporting this 20 army, Liu Bei will have no way to protect himself. With this 20 army, the logistics will be dragged down sooner or later.

If Liu Bei wants to solve the predicament he is facing now, he can only lay down a larger territory.However, among their allied forces, Yuan Shao, the most powerful, turned his head to fight Gongsun Zan.Now it is still difficult for them to face Cao Cao's counterattack, let alone conquer a larger territory.

These days Xu Shu is very troubled, he is thinking all over the place and it is difficult to find a way to break the situation.On this day, Xu Shu was worrying when he saw a guard from outside hurried in and reported: "Mr. Shan, a man came to visit you outside the door. He said he was your friend, and his surname was Zhuge."

"Resurname Zhuge?"

"Could it be that Kong Ming is here?" Xu Shu's spirit was shocked.

Xu Shu and Zhuge Liang are good friends, they studied with Mr. Shui Jing together.When Xu Shu heard that Zhuge Liang was coming, he was overjoyed.Xu Shu knew that Zhuge Liang was ten or a hundred times more talented than himself.If you can't think of a way to break the situation, you can ask Zhuge Liang for advice.

However, Xu Shu changed his mind.Isn't Zhuge Liang living in Jiangdong now?If I come to Zhuojun today, I'm afraid I have something to ask for.

Thinking of this, Xu Shu collected himself and said to the guards, "Go and invite Mr. Zhuge in."

"Da da da!"

Not long after, Zhuge Liang walked in from the outside with high legs and light steps.Zhuge Liang smiled and said to Xu Shu, "Yuan Zhi, I miss you so much."

Xu Shu thought to himself, you Zhuge Kongming usually have an aloof appearance, and now you must be courting when you have nothing to do.

Although Xu Shu thought so in his heart, his face was very familiar.Xu Shu said with a smile: "Kong Ming, we haven't seen each other for a long time, we miss you very much."

After the two exchanged words, Xu Shu asked Zhuge Liang, "Kong Ming, I heard that you are now serving as a military advisor in Eastern Wu. Why did you come to my place in your busy schedule?"

"Yuan Zhi, I am here this time, there is a very good thing!"

"My Lord Wu, Sun Ce, has a younger sister, Fang Fang, who is [-] years old. Now is the time to get married. My Lord Wu intends to betroth her to your Shu King."

"Wouldn't it be a beautiful thing for us to marry Wu and Shu?" Zhuge Liang said to Xu Shu.

After Zhuge Liang finished speaking, Xu Shu smiled and said, "Brother Kong Ming, I'm afraid this marriage is not so simple?"

"Yuan Zhi, there is indeed one more matter. My Wu Lord, Sun Ce, invited the King of Shu to attack Qin together. I don't know what you think of Yuan Zhi." Zhuge Liang said, looking at Xu Shu's face.

Unexpectedly, upon hearing this, Xu Shu, who was originally amiable, immediately changed a bit.He said with a cold face: "Brother Kong Ming, if this is the case, please return to Jiangdong."

"Yuanzhi, what does this mean?" Zhuge Liang asked Xu Shu.

"Hmph, Kong Ming, now that Qin is attacking you Wu, if our army attacks Qin's army later, wouldn't it attract firepower for you, Soochow?"

"Don't you see, the current King of Yan, Gongsun Zan?" Xu Shu said with a straight face.

What Xu Shu meant was saying, good Zhuge Liang, I take you as a good friend, but you want to entice us to take the top tank for Soochow.

The lessons learned by Yan Wang Gongsun Zan are right in front of us. This is how Cao Cao fooled Gongsun Zan.As a result, Gongsun Zan attacked Yuan Shao from the rear with only a few thousand white horses.Now that Gongsun Zan was being beaten by Yuan Shao, he was retreating steadily, and half of Youzhou had been lost.

Xu Shu thought to himself, you think our King of Shu is a fool, and his senior brother Gongsun Zan has suffered, can my King of Shu suffer again?
Zhuge Liang pondered for a moment, then pondered: "Yuan Zhi, from one moment to the next, I'm afraid the King of Shu is in trouble now, right?"

What a wonderful person Zhuge Liang is, how could he send an envoy to Zhuojun without the certainty of persuading Liu Bei to send troops.These days, Zhuge Liang has already studied the general situation of the world today. He has a perfect plan and is sure to persuade Liu Bei, so he went to Zhuojun as an envoy.

"Yuanzhi, how about you lead me to see the king of Shu, how about I discuss it with you in detail?" Zhuge Liang and Xu Shu discussed.

Xu Shu is worrying about how to break the situation these days, but Zhuge Liang pointed out Liu Bei's predicament today.Xu Shu knew that Zhuge Liang's talent was far superior to his own. At this moment, he wanted to see what Zhuge Liang thought.

"Okay, I will lead you to meet my family, the King of Shu." Xu Shu replied.

Zhuo County, Zhuo County, Shu Palace.

Liu Bei is a well-known corporal of courtesy and virtuousness. As soon as he heard that the famous Mr. Wolong Zhuge Liang was coming, Liu Bei immediately arranged a large banquet to entertain Zhuge Liang.

Liu Bei attaches great importance to Zhuge Liang, as can be seen from the people accompanying him.On the general's side, Guan Yu sat at the front, followed by Zhang Fei, Huang Zhong, and Wei Yan.On the civil servant's side, military adviser Shan Fu, that is, Xu Shu sat first, followed by Mi Zhu, Jian Yong, Sun Qian and others.

"Mr. Zhuge, when you come to Zhuojun, you should drink a glass of wine." Without further ado, Liu Bei brought Zhuge Liang a glass of wine.

In the final analysis, Liu Bei was the King of Shu named by the great Han Dynasty. Zhuge Liang had to drink toast to himself when this majestic King of Shu made a toast.After drinking a full cup, Liu Bei turned to Zhuge Liang and asked, "I don't know Mr. Kong Ming, what are you talking about coming to Zhuo County?"

Zhuge Liang smiled at Liu Bei and said, "King Shu, my King Wu has a younger sister. Now that she is old enough to marry, King Wu intends to marry King Shu."

Unexpectedly, after hearing Zhuge Liang's words, Liu Bei's expression changed immediately, and Liu Bei said: "If this is the case, Mr. Kong Ming, please go back after this meal."
