The most powerful general in the Three Kingdoms

Zhou Cheng took the letter and opened it to read.

Yuan Yao's letter reported that Liu Biao sent Liu Bei to Jiangxia to assist Liu Qi.

Huang Zu secretly set out from Shaxian to support Shanyue and resist Zhou Yu.

After Zhou Cheng read the letter, he smiled softly.

As a person who has been there, I am familiar with the history of the Three Kingdoms.

Of course he knew that because he occupied Cao Cao's territory.

Preventing Cao Cao from going south, the three-way Chibi War between Sun, Cao and Liu broke out.

At this moment, it was time for Zhang Song to present the topographic map of Western Shu to Liu Bei.

So whether it was Liu Biao himself who ordered Liu Bei to go to Jiangxia.

It was Zhuge Liang's plan that led Liu Biao to order Liu Bei to go to Jiangxia.

It was time for Liu Bei to escape from the trap with Liu Biao and flee to Western Shu.

At this time, Zhou Cheng was quite hesitant and was considering whether he had a chance to capture Liu Bei and others.

And the key is not to let Liu Bei hate himself.

Needless to say, Guan Yu and Zhang Fei are both peerless generals, who doesn't like them.

It's just that both of them are loyal to Liu Bei.

But Zhou Cheng had another consideration. He really wanted Zhuge Liang to work for him.

Because although Zhuge Liang's resourcefulness is unparalleled in the world, it is worth his efforts to fight for it.

But what Zhou Cheng wanted most was Zhuge Liang's method of a wooden cow and a flowing horse.

Once this existed during the Three Kingdoms period, it could be called a plug-in.

Then the forces on their side don't know how much manpower, animal power, and food can be saved.

And the smaller the power, the less obvious it is, but the larger the power, the more obvious it is.

So for Zhou Cheng, Zhuge Liang is bound to win.

Of course, if you really can't get Zhuge Liang, you can still get the technique of Wooden Ox and Flowing Horse.

So Zhou Chengcheng began to think about how to act.

Liu Bei was unable to leave Jingzhou before because he cared about his reputation.

Although it relied on the bravery of Guan Yu and Zhang Fei, and Zhuge Liang's strategy.

It is certain that we can break through Jingzhou's heavy defenses and enter Western Shu.

But in this case, there will inevitably be battles at the passes along the way.

When there is fighting, there will be casualties.

Liu Bei had no legitimate reason to take action at this time.

Once he takes action, it will inevitably damage the reputation he has accumulated so far.

Therefore, Liu Bei must not dare to drive to Jingzhou by land to avoid direct conflict.

But now it is turning to help defend Jiangxia. On the Yangtze River, ships are traveling very frequently.

A large merchant ship can store enough people.

As long as the person is hidden in the cargo hold, there is no way to discover him.

Wouldn't it be much more concealed than taking the land route?

Liu was ordered to go to Jiangxia, which must have been arranged by Zhuge Liang.

The first step to escape Jingzhou and go to Xishu!

This is somewhat similar to the historical straw boat borrowing arrows.

They all used boats and were Zhuge Liang's plans.

It's just that there is a dummy hidden in the straw boat.

One is just a real person hiding on a merchant ship.

Zhou Cheng had made up his mind and immediately started making arrangements.

First, he wrote back to Yuan Yao, asking him to continue sending people to investigate the movements in Jingzhou.

Pay special attention to the changes in Jiangxia and Liu Bei.

And at the same time, he arranged for Jiangdong to conduct detailed research to find out the news.

Recently.

Any news related to Liu Biao, Liu Bei and Sun Ce.

Everything must be reported to Runan Zhao Yun.

Then Zhou Cheng also arranged a group of experienced scouts within his own power.

He disguised himself and went to Jingzhou, Jiangxia, and various places in Jiangdong to inquire about the news.

It was also reported to Runan.

Compare it one by one with the information reported by Yuan Yao, and then let Zhou Cheng make his own judgment to avoid mistakes.

Then, Zhou Cheng immediately arranged for his entourage and prepared various items.

He left the city and headed for Runan in the name of inspecting Yuzhou.

I just happened to have a tour of the north before, so this tour of Yuzhou is not unexpected.

Poyang County, Zhou Yu's mansion.

Zhou Yu had been training navy at Poyang Lake before.

This time, according to Sun Ce's arrangements, they were preparing to attack Shanyue.

Generally speaking, people from Jiangdong like to attack Shanyue.

Because attacking Shanyue has several advantages.

You can grab people, food, and even territory.

Therefore, the major lords in Jiangdong are quite unconcerned with foreign wars.

But in the internal campaign against Shanyue, each one was more active than the other!

It is precisely because of interests.

In foreign wars, we fight to the death, shed blood and tears, and waste our lives and money.

The battle was won, but all the territory belonged to the Sun family and had nothing to do with the major clans.

But if they lose the battle, they will actually lose their own manpower and supplies.

But if we win the battle against Shanyue. _Feilu reminds you: three things about reading-
