Three Kingdoms: My Strategy Simulator

After Liu Bei made the decision, he did not even call together the rest of his civil and military officials to discuss the matter.

On the one hand, this was based on Liu Bei's trust in Li Ji's judgment; on the other hand, Liu Bei also knew that once this matter was put on the table, it would inevitably encounter a lot of opposition.

Not everyone can look at the future from the perspective of the general trend of the world, and not everyone is as loyal and righteous as Liu Bei and does not care about minor gains and losses.

In the eyes of others, what does the war in Jizhou thousands of miles away have to do with Yangzhou?

Yuan Shao only occupied half of the state. Could he be a match for the combined forces of Han Fu and Gongsun Zan?

Even if Yuan Shao won a complete victory and even occupied Youzhou, the Port of Tianjin would merely have changed its trading partner. What difference would that make?
Sending a detachment to Youzhou in the name of study and exchange was apparently a waste of effort, and Gongsun Zan did not lack those two or three thousand cavalrymen at all.

More importantly, no matter whether Gongsun Zan wins or loses, this detachment will not bring any benefits. Instead, it will cost a lot of money and food. Naturally, there will be opposition from his subordinates.

However, just like in the original story, Gongsun Zan generously sent a lot of soldiers to Liu Bei in the name of loan.

Now that Liu Bei has become rich, he doesn't care about the loss of money and food.

Soon, Liu Bei secretly transferred back Zhao Yun and the White Horse Volunteers who were originally training in Chaisang.

However, Zhao Yun did not have the obsessive-compulsive disorder like Gongsun Zan, and the White Horse Volunteers insisted on using white war horses.

Of course, what is more important is that the white fine horses produced in Youzhou are almost all monopolized by Gongsun Zan and cannot be released for trade at all.

Moreover, Yangzhou now has plenty of money and food, so it will naturally try its best to expand the "White Horse Volunteers" army, as it is not impossible to support them.

Therefore, Zhao Yun could only choose a large number of qualified mixed-color horses as mounts, and gradually expanded the number of White Horse Volunteers to 4,500.

In addition, Zhang Fei also had a cavalry of about 3,000 and some scattered cavalry of the generals' personal guards.

Now, the number of cavalry under Liu Bei's command has exceeded 8,000, which is undoubtedly a terrifying force in the south where war horses are scarce.

When Guo Jia learned that Zhao Yun had returned to Wujun.

On this day, Guo Jia, who came to Ren De Academy to substitute for Li Ji's class, showed a deep melancholy and sadness on his usually playful face.

Every three or five sentences, he would sigh, which attracted the attention of his fellow apprentices.

Despite such an eye-catching behavior, no one asked Guo Jia questions for a long time. It seemed that Zhuge Liang, Sima Yi, Pang Tong, Xu Shu and others were all concentrating on studying.

Only Sun Quan, who was sitting in a corner of the lecture hall, couldn't help but turn his eyes back and forth for a while after listening to the dizzying content, and took the initiative to ask Guo Jia.

"Brother Fengxiao, why are you sighing so much? If you have any problems, why not tell us? All the fellow disciples are here. Who knows, maybe we can help you solve them?"

After saying this, Guo Jia gave Sun Quan an admiring look, which made Sun Quan feel a little excited.

Sun Quan felt that among all his fellow disciples, he was the only one who noticed the abnormality of Senior Brother Fengxiao. He might be looked up to by Senior Brother Fengxiao from now on.

However, Sun Quan, who was secretly delighted, did not notice that his fellow disciples around him were looking at him with strangeness, contempt and helplessness.

There are definitely smart people among the students in the school, and there are many who are better at reading people's expressions and dealing with human relationships than Sun Quan, who is now nine years old.

But the others kept silent, most of them understood that Guo Jia did it on purpose, so everyone saw it, but everyone pretended not to see it.

Unexpectedly, among all the smart people, there was actually a real fool. Naturally, Sun Quan was so smart that he took the initiative to talk to Guo Jia.

The next moment, Guo Jia pretended to sigh again, but he couldn't suppress the smile on his lips when he spoke.

"Well, since you are asking so sincerely, I will not hide it. Today is probably the last class I will teach you." "Now I can't stop sighing, because I am worried about the future and I am reluctant to leave my fellow disciples."

Pang Tong accidentally let his inner thoughts slip out of his mouth.

"Is there such a good thing?"

Guo Jia narrowed his eyes, glanced at Pang Tong who was sitting alone in a corner, and asked, "Hmm? Junior Brother Pang Tong, do you think he doesn't like me?"

Sitting alone in a corner is not a privilege.

It was because of Pang Tong's previous stinking appearance that the other brothers and sisters avoided him as much as possible.

In addition, Pang Tong was ugly and unkempt, had a stubborn and arrogant personality, and was always harsh in his words. Naturally, few people were willing to approach Pang Tong.

Pang Tong didn't care about this and naturally took up a corner.

However, if we say that Professor Li Ji teaches according to the students' aptitude, guides them step by step, and is fair and calm, he is deeply respected by his students.

So when Guo Jia came to substitute for the class, he was just trying to have fun with his fellow junior students.

Today's Guo Jia may not be considered experienced, but his abilities are definitely among the best in the world. Facing a group of young talents, it is like kicking a kindergarten ball.

Whoever shows up, Guo Jia will attack him with a more correct answer.

Pang Tong, who was the most stubborn and unforgiving in his words, naturally became the main target of attention.

Upon hearing that this was Guo Jia's last substitute class, Pang Tong repeatedly denied Guo Jia's questions, but his eyes and brows were filled with joy that could hardly be concealed.

Seeing this, Sun Quan was afraid that Pang Tong would steal his limelight, so he quickly started to express his concern.

"I can't bear to leave Senior Brother Fengxiao. I wonder why Senior Brother Fengxiao wants to leave? Could it be that we are too stupid and angered Senior Brother Fengxiao?"

At the end, Sun Quan did not forget to glance at Pang Tong, and his intention to provoke was self-evident.

The ugly and arrogant Pang Tong was what Sun Quan hated the most.

However, Sun Quan's little trick was seen through by not only Guo Jia but also the other students in the school, causing many students to frown slightly and feel uneasy.

"We are brothers in the same sect. It's fine for us to joke around on weekdays, but why do you have to use such a clumsy provocation technique?"

'This person is so young and narrow-minded. Even if he doesn't like Pang Tong, it is not gentlemanly to do such a mean thing.'

"From now on, you should stay away from Sun Quan... He is both stupid and evil."

……

Guo Jia picked up the gourd and took a sip of the wine, thinking something similar.

However, Guo Jia also knew that Sun Quan was able to become his teacher's disciple because of his lord's intercession, and the teacher could not refuse.

After all, the dead are the most important.

Even though Sun Jian committed some faults during his lifetime, he had a good personal relationship with Liu Bei and had repeatedly supported Liu Bei. If Liu Bei had taken better care of Sun Jian's son, he would have won more people's hearts.

Therefore, Guo Jia naturally did not have any expectations for Sun Quan, a relative of his, and everyone just watched it for fun and had fun. (End of this chapter)
