I Am the Emperor of the Three Kingdoms

"King Chu, rejoice."

Ma Su bowed to Liu Bei and said, "This shows that Liu Zhe's army has begun to run out of food."

Liu Bei was stunned for a moment, and the person next to him who was about to watch Ma Su's joke was also stunned. Why did he get involved with Liu Zhe?

"King Chu, look."

Ma Su quickly analyzed, "Didn't the people below say that? They were robbed of food and grass by the enemy and were forced to come here to ask the King of Chu to distribute food and grass."

"If you can do such a thing, there are also people from Liu Zhe. Liu Zhe sent people to loot food and grass, and at the same time, in order not to leave a bad reputation, he did not dare to slaughter the people casually."

"I now understand why Liu Zhe sent a small group of enemies across Fucheng to attack our rear." Ma Su affirmed to Liu Bei.

"Liu Zhe is not only to cause panic on our side, but more to loot grain and grass."

Ma Su's inference made many people even more dazed. How can there be such a statement?

"Innocent."

Yan Yan couldn't bear it any longer, and he shouted, "How much food and grass can you grab if a small group of enemies kills you in the rear?"

Yan Yan refuted Ma Su, because Ma Su hated him too much, and second, Ma Su's statement was not valid.

How can there be such a looting of food and grass? ..

3021、What is Liu Zhe doing?

To loot grain and grass in this way, let’s not say whether it can be transported back. The grain alone is not enough for the troops in the rear to eat.

"King of Chu."

Yan Yan said to Liu Bei, "The old minister feels that this does not mean that the enemy is short of food in the army. To rob the people of the food and grass is nothing more than the enemy who went to our rear and robbed them for their own use."

Yan Yan's statement was more reasonable, and many people present nodded.

"The old general's words are bad."

However, there were still people who objected to Yan Yan's statement. Pang Yi said, "Why can't we do this because the enemy lacks food? Otherwise, why send people to rob the people of food and grass?"

"The old man said that this is because they robbed the people of the food and grass for their own use in order to facilitate their activities." Yan Yan said.

Yan Yan didn't feel good about Pang Yi, he knew that Chengdu fell because of Pang Yi's betrayal.

He was in-law with Liu Zhang, but he was the first to stab Liu Zhang, such a person, Yan Yan was ashamed to be with him.

Many people present listened to these conversations, some nodded, some shook their heads, some agreed with Ma Su Pangyi's opinions, some agreed with Yan Yan's views, and many people spoke out their views, everyone's views not exactly.

"Ji Chang, what do you think?"

After Liu Bei heard what his subordinates said, he frowned and asked Ma Liang.

"King of Chu, there is too little information now to know whether Liu Zhe is short of food. The most important thing now is to deal with the people below." Ma Liang reminded Liu Bei of what he had to do now.

After being reminded by Ma Liang, Liu Bei didn't react until now. That's right, the people in the city are the ones he has to deal with first.

As soon as he focused his attention on the people under the city, he immediately heard various voices coming from below.

"Let us in!"

"Where's the King of Chu? Don't you say that the King of Chu loves his people like a son? Why hasn't he opened the door yet?"

"Yeah, is the King of Chu willing to watch us ordinary people starve and freeze?"

......

The people below were very dissatisfied and complained, and they didn't have much respect for Liu Bei.

Liu Bei's face became even more ugly.

Li Hui noticed Liu Bei's expression, stepped forward, and whispered to Liu Bei, "King of Chu, in order to prevent spies from infiltrating, let them leave here and go to the next city."

Li Hui's words were actually very appealing to Liu Bei. Liu Bei didn't want to let the people below enter the city.

Aside from the fact that there are spies in there, just relying on the disrespectful tone of the people below him, he is unhappy.

But Liu Bei knew he couldn't do it himself because he cared about his reputation.

If Dong Zhuo was here, with the attitude of the people below, Dong Zhuo would have ordered the shooting of arrows long ago.

"Let them come in." Liu Bei ordered, but he was actually reluctant.

"King Chu, be careful of spies."

"King Chu, be careful this is the enemy's conspiracy."

Hearing that Liu Bei was going to let people in, many of his subordinates spoke out to discourage him.

"What if there are spies?"

Liu Bei made a sound, he paused for a moment, and then turned to look at his subordinates. When he looked at his subordinates, his eyes had already turned red, his eyes were red, and he said in a sad tone, "They are all the people of this king, Displaced because of the enemy's invasion. This is the king's dereliction of duty, it is the king's fault."

"Now that they are all here, even if there are spies among them, this king doesn't care. What this king cares about is whether the people of this king can be properly settled."

Liu Bei's remarks touched his subordinates, and many people felt that they were following a good master.

"King of Chu Shengming."

"Open the door and let the people in."
