"And in the battle with the Jiangdong Army, the [-] troops have lost a lot."

"Now we have nearly [-] troops in our hands, and with the Jiangdong Army attacking, Jingzhou must be in the bag."

Liu Bei frowned and said:

"Although the military master's words are good, if Sun Quan wants to take Jingzhou now, I'm afraid we won't be so aggressive."

Although the Jiangdong Army has experienced the Battle of Chibi, its current strength is still several times that of Liu Bei. It is definitely not easy to compete with them for Jingzhou.

Zhuge Liang smiled mysteriously:

"My lord, do you think that Sun Quan will attack Jingzhou?"

Liu Bei is not a fool, he narrowed his eyes when he heard this:

"What the military advisor means is that the attack on Jingzhou was only Zhou Yu's opinion, not Sun Quan's order?"

Zhuge Liang nodded irrefutably, and continued:

"I have been to Jiangdong before, and the situation in Jiangdong is extremely turbulent. The foreign invasion has just been lifted, and Sun Quan will never send troops to attack Jingzhou."

"Moreover, at this time there will definitely be counselors from Zhou Yu's faction leading the battle. Jiangdong is already busy."

Liu Bei nodded and said:

"But even if Zhou Yu insists on going his own way, he has the military power after all, and he will not accept orders from other emperors. Even if Sun Quan orders him to withdraw, it will be of no avail."

Zhuge Liang suddenly stopped waving the feather fan, narrowed his eyes and said:

"So, we need to get rid of Zhou Yu quickly."

"what?"

Liu Bei was startled when he heard this.

"Get rid of Zhou Yu? Wouldn't that be the same as making an enemy of Jiangdong?"

"Our army doesn't have a stable territory yet. If we fight against Jiangdong now, we will be besieged on all sides."

Zhuge Liang shook his head and continued:

"It's Zhou Yu's enemy, not Jiang Dong's."

"Sun Quan is determined not to fight us because of Zhou Yu."

"On the contrary, if we get rid of Zhou Yu, Sun Quan will be friendly with us instead."

Seeing Liu Bei was puzzled, Zhuge Liang continued to explain:

"Zhou Yu belongs to Sun Ce's faction, and has always been extremely unhappy with Sun Quan's taking power. He has military power in his hands, which is Sun Quan's biggest worry."

"But Sun Quan didn't dare to touch Zhou Yu, not to mention Zhou Yu's military power, and there were not a few ministers who supported Zhou Yu in the Jiangdong Dynasty."

"If we get rid of Zhou Yu, these ministers will have no backbone, and it will be much easier for Sun Quan to clean up those who are not in the court."

"In this way, we can win Jingzhou and win over Sun Quan. Why not do it?"

Hearing this, Liu Bei suddenly realized, and then said solemnly:

"I understand what the military division means, but now that Zhou Yu is leading the army, how do we get rid of him? This is a difficult problem."

Zhuge Liang smiled when he heard the words:

"My lord, don't worry, Liang has a plan..."

……

At this time, Sima Mansion.

Sima Zhao and Sima Shi are playing chess.

"Brother, today's recruiting meeting is so lively."

Sima Zhao laughed and said.

Master Sima also had a smile on his face:

"I just didn't expect that Mr. Cao Zhi would openly oppose Bai Feng. He really did anything to win over the nobles."

Sima Zhao nodded and said:

"Although Bai Feng is the prime minister's hand-picked military adviser and holds great power, offending him will definitely be harmful."

"But looking at it today, Mr. Cao Zhi won. After all, he has successfully won over the gentry. Mr. Pi has not expressed his position yet, I'm afraid..."

"Who said Cao Zhi won?"

At this moment, a rather stern voice came over.

Sima Shi and Sima Zhao quickly put down the chess pieces in their hands, bowed their hands and said:

"Dad is back?"

Sima Yi nodded, narrowed his eyes and said:

"You guys, when can we learn more?"

"Cao Zhi is defeated now, and the defeat is extremely complete!"
