The Three Kingdoms are invincible

Jiangdong, Zhuge Mansion.

Zhuge Jin is 36 years old this year, with a refined appearance and quite the demeanor of a celebrity.He has served Sun Jian for several years, although he has not been trusted by Sun Jian like Zhou Yu, Lu Su, and Zhang Zhao, but he has been reused a lot. Among them, it can be regarded as having a certain status.

At this moment, Zhuge Jin was in the living room of her home, receiving her younger brother, Zhuge Liang, who was seven years younger than herself.

Zhuge Liang planned to come here for Liu Bei. After the two brothers drank a few sips of tea and exchanged a few words, they got to the point.

"Cao thief wants to use the power of the Central Plains to invade Jiangdong. I also hope that my brother can make a few words in front of the king of Wu, so that Xuande can lead an army to defend Cao thief and do his best for the people of Jiangdong." Zhuge Liang He was the first to state the purpose of his visit.

Zhuge Jin frowned slightly after listening to his younger brother's request.Zhuge Liang sought soldiers and horses for Liu Bei. Although he said it was to help defend Jiangdong, his real intentions were clear at a glance, and he was to take the opportunity to expand Liu Bei's power.

After Liu Bei entered Wu, he was always suppressed by Sun Jian, and he never had more than [-] troops.Sun Jian is not like Liu Biao, Liu Bei lived in Wu, no matter how hard he tried, he could not increase his power at all.

But now, Cao Cao raised 25 troops and went south to invade Wu, which made Liu Bei see the opportunity-the opportunity to strengthen his own strength and break away from Sun Jian.

Although Zhuge Liang and Liu Bei stayed together in Jiangdong for a long time, the number of times the Zhuge brothers met was very rare, that is, during the holidays, the two brothers came out to get together, and basically seldom met at other times.After all, although Zhuge Liang is now in Wuying, he has never been truly loyal to Sun Jian in his heart. Everyone in Jiangdong knows this well.If Zhuge Jin and Zhuge Liang stayed together too many times and for too long, causing unnecessary misunderstandings from the lord Sun Jian, it would be very troublesome.Although Sun Jian was not a suspicious person, he was cautious about everything, so if there was nothing important, Zhuge Jin would not easily visit his younger brother.And Zhuge Liang can also understand his brother's difficulties, and will not come to him casually.

But now, my younger brother asked me to speak to King Wu and ask King Wu to send troops. Isn't this embarrassing myself?If I said that to King Wu, no matter how magnanimous King Wu was, he would definitely suspect that I had colluded with Liu Bei.

"Kong Ming, how many soldiers does Duke Xuande want?" Zhuge Jin asked tentatively.

"Twenty thousand." Zhuge Liang also knew that he was very unkind to his brother, but this was the best chance for Liu Bei to develop his strength, and it was the only chance!

Once the current opportunity is missed, after the battle between Wu and Wei, Liu Bei will never have a chance to stand up again.If Sun Jian wins, Liu Bei will be firmly controlled by Sun Jian for the rest of his life, and he can only die in depression in the end; if Cao Cao wins, Liu Bei will either die or flee to the deep mountains and wild forests.

In order to prevent these things from happening, I must pull a force for Liu Bei before the Wu Wei battle, so that no matter which side Wu Wei wins, they cannot easily despise Liu Bei's existence.It would be even better if Liu Bei could take advantage of the opportunity to gain a piece of land during the war between the two sides.

And the only person I can ask for help is Zhuge Jin.Others like Zhang Zhao and others would not listen to the request of their lord Liu Bei. As for Zhou Yu and his generation, they even regarded their lord as a thorn in their flesh.

"Twenty thousand?" Zhuge Jin frowned even tighter.Now Liu Bei has 3 soldiers and horses, and if he is given another [-], the total number of troops he can control will reach [-], which is not a small number.With Liu Bei's ability, once he has [-] soldiers and horses, he already has the strength to break away from Jiangdong's control, which may pose a threat to Jiangdong.Neither Sun Jian nor Zhou Yu would allow such a thing to happen, let alone allow Liu Bei to have so many troops in Jiangdong.

Not to mention Cao thief has not sent troops yet, even if he has already fought outside Jianye City, Sun Jian will not let Liu Bei command [-] troops!

If Zhuge Liang said that he wanted 6000 people, Zhuge Jin might go to King Wu to say that because of his brotherhood.But Zhuge Liang wanted [-] soldiers and horses as soon as he opened his mouth, and Zhuge Jin had no idea of ​​going to see King Wu.

He knew that as long as he mentioned this matter to King Wu, he would be chased out by the guards around King Wu the next moment.

"I can't do anything about this matter." Zhuge Jin's face changed again and again, and finally he refused.

"Brother..." Zhuge Liang wanted to try to persuade him again, but was interrupted by Zhuge Jin.

"I can't help you in this matter, but I can recommend someone to you, maybe you can help you realize your wish."

"Oh? May I ask who the elder brother is talking about?" Zhuge Liang was disappointed when he heard that Zhuge Jin refused at first, but then seeing that Zhuge Jin had another candidate, Zhuge Liang felt hopeful again.

"Lu Su, Lu Zijing."
