At this time, Liu Bei's army was now stationed in a forest.

Liu Bei is now eating dry food leisurely, he hasn't been so happy for a long time. It's a wonderful feeling to play someone around.

Xu Shu's face is not so good-looking. Previously, Xu Shu suggested that Liu Bei move his army to attack other counties, so there was an attack on Lu County.

Luxian was defeated, but Liu Beijun's style shocked Xu Shu. The 2,000 descendants of the army that Liu Bei brought to Jingzhou actually became traitors and burned Lu County. Xu Shu wanted to stop it too late.

Many of Liu Bei's soldiers and horses were born as thieves in Runan, and if he was able to stay in trouble for so long, he could be regarded as Liu Bei's good governance of the army. However, when these people won the battle, they thought that they would have to treat themselves no matter what, so when they quickly conquered Lu County, some soldiers with bad nature began to plunder. Some began to lead, others began to follow suit, and spread like a plague throughout the army. In the end, Luxian County became a white land. And the result is not bad, the people of Lu County are not threatened by their lives.

And Liu Bei felt that he had a little money left now, so he didn't punish these soldiers too much, and took out the leading soldiers as scapegoats to kill them.

Xu Shu couldn't accept such a result. But now he also knows Liu Bei's difficulties, so he can only choose to rectify military discipline in the future.

Liu Bei found that Xu Shu was still sullen because of the previous incident, and said to him ashamedly: "Military advisor, it's all because Liu Bei has no way to govern the army. ”

As a lord, it is very rare to be able to express shame to his military advisor like this. Xu Shu smiled: "It's nothing, in fact, this thing is also normal." I won't care about it, and I ask the lord not to blame himself. ”

Hearing Xu Shu say this, Liu Bei breathed a sigh of relief, he was really worried that Xu Shu would be affected by this. The current wise men are not worried that no one values them, if Xu Shu leaves angrily because of this matter, Liu Bei will lose a lot.

"Strategist, what are we going to do next? Sun Ce has been seriously injured, the Jiangdong Army is bound to be in turmoil, should we take this opportunity to attack Jiangxia City! Liu Bei hurriedly opened the topic.

Xu Shu shook his head and said: "Although Sun Ce is seriously injured, the Wenchen generals under his command have no losses, and Jiang Xia is not something we can plan at the moment." And even if we capture Jiangxia, we will only help Liu Jingsheng regain the lost territory, and it will not benefit the lord at all. The lord should repair a letter to Liu Jingsheng, indicating that he had suffered heavy losses after the great battle and needed to return to Xinye to garrison. ”

Liu Bei nodded desperately, his little strength to fight Jiangxia would definitely be a loss. And Liu Biao will not hand over Jiang Xia to him, it is better to take this opportunity to return to Xinye.

Liu Bei sent an envoy to Xiangyang with letters and battle reports, and then returned to Xinye with his soldiers and horses. As for Liu Biaotong's disagreement, it's none of his business.

When the news reached Xiangyang, the entire Xiangyang was shocked by Liu Bei's achievements inside and out.

Because at the same time as Liu Bei, Cai Mao's battle report was also returned. Cai Mao led tens of thousands of sailors, but was defeated by Sun Ce's subordinates Gan Ning and Ding Feng. If it weren't for the fact that the Jiangdong Army had fewer numbers and warships than Jingzhou, and the Jingzhou Navy also had some combat power, I am afraid that the whole army would be annihilated.

Liu Bei defeated Sun Ce with 5,000 soldiers and horses, and also seriously injured Sun Ce. Cai Mao went to attack Sun Ce with absolute troops, but was actually defeated by Sun Ce's subordinates, including the previous rebel generals. What's more important is that Liu Bei is still a guest general, not a native of Jingzhou.

Such a big contrast made Jingzhou's assassin Liu Biao's face dull, and Jingzhou's civil and military affairs were self-conscious.

Liu Bei said that he had suffered heavy losses after a major battle and needed to return to Xinye. Where does Liu Biao disagree, if he objects, then he no longer needs to be the position of Jingzhou Assassin, and his generals and soldiers will look down on him.

But Liu Bei has made such a great contribution, and it is not possible not to reward it. But when Liu Biao thought of Liu Bei's influence expanding, he felt very uncomfortable. After many times of consideration, Liu Biao felt that he couldn't be too picky, and he should give Liu Bei what he should give.

So Liu Biao asked people to preach in Jingzhou that Sun Ce had been hit hard by General Xinye, and defeating Sun Ce was just around the corner. As for who General Xinye was, Liu Biao did not explain, and at the same time, the tragic news of Cai Mao's defeat was not mentioned. The people are used to Sun Ce's invasion, and the Jiangdong side will come to invade Jingzhou every once in a while, and if they are defeated this time, they don't care.

Liu Biao also sent a messenger to Xinye with condolences, and this time Liu Biao was rare and generous, and rewarded Liu Bei with a large sum of money and food.

It is rare for Liu Biao to be so generous, and Liu Bei accepted these gifts and rewards very unceremoniously.

"Messenger, please tell Brother Jingsheng that Liu Bei is grateful for his condolences, and at the same time let Brother Jingsheng rest assured that Liu Bei will definitely beat Xinye into an iron bucket and guard Jingzhou, an important gateway." Liu Bei said excitedly to the envoy.

"Don't worry, general, I will definitely bring it to Lord Thorn Shi in the next place." The messenger thought to himself, Lord Shi wished you were dead.

"There is another thing, Liu Bei suffered heavy losses in his troops because of the last war, and the three thousand soldiers and horses that Brother Jingsheng transferred before will continue to stay in Xinye, so as to continue to contribute to Jingzhou." Liu Bei continued.

"I can't be the master of this." The envoy didn't expect Liu Bei to have a really big appetite, and swallowed all three thousand soldiers and horses into his stomach.

"Liu Bei knows that it is difficult to be a messenger, so please tell Brother Jingsheng." Liu Bei just wants an explanation, and it doesn't matter if Liu Biaotong disagrees with him or not.

Liu Bei said so, and the envoy could only do it, he was just a small shrimp, and the final decision would be made by the people above.

The envoy returned to Xiangyang and sent Liu Bei's original words back to Liu Biao, who did not have any objection and agreed directly. It was much more than anyone expected.

As time passed, the news of Liu Bei's victory over Sun Ce with fewer victories also reached the ears of all the princes.

Cao Cao knows Liu Bei very well, and with Liu Bei's strength and ability, it is impossible to do this, so there must be someone to help him. So Cao Cao immediately ordered his "Black Ice Platform" to investigate whether there was any master or something around Liu Bei.

Liu Yu also received Liu Bei's news from the "dark department", as soon as he saw Liu Bei winning more with less, Liu Yu shouted in his heart, Liu Bei must have found a military advisor, in case he got Zhuge Liang, the world will be full of variables in the future.

Liu Yu went crazy and ordered Li Gui and the "dark department" to investigate whether there were more military advisors or strategists around Liu Bei, and the identity and name of the other party must be found out.

Li Gui saw that Liu Yu was so anxious, and he didn't dare to slack off, so he immediately sent elite spies from the "dark department" to investigate.

In the end, both the "Dark Department" and the "Black Ice Platform" found out that there was really a military division around Liu Bei, a wise man named Xu Shu, Liu Bei had a big victory last time, and it was also arranged by this military division.

Xu Shu officially entered the sight of the major princes, and his reputation spread throughout the Han Dynasty.

Of course, there are also people who can't wait to kill Xu Shu, that is Sun Ce, who was calculated by Xu Shu.

After Liu Yu knew that Liu Bei got Xu Shu, he sighed in his heart that Liu Bei's luck was really not blown, and he really got a military advisor for him.

Xu Shu's ability is very strong, and Liu Yu doesn't know where it is. Liu Yu remembered that Xu Shu was forced to leave Liu Bei because of his old mother's affairs, and in the end, he didn't say a word on Cao Cao's side, and died of illness within a few years.

Liu Yu felt that Xu Shu was a pity, he recognized Liu Bei, but he would not surrender to others, he was a loyal minister.

Liu Yu thought about whether he should take Xu Shu's mother over like Cao Cao in history, after all, Xu Shu is very filial, and he is likely to leave Liu Bei and throw himself into his arms.
