Liu Bei thought about it for a long time, but after all, he did not go to Wenzhao again, but took Guan Yu and Zhang to Jingzhou to throw him.

Chen Xu's aura is too strong, Liu Bei always has a feeling of inferiority in front of Wen Zhao, and he can't even have the mind to confront Chen Xu.

But he also knew that with the expansion of Chen Xu's power, the contradiction between Wen Zhao and the Son of Heaven would become fierce sooner or later. At that time, Liu Bei, as a member of the Han family, would definitely go to the opposite side of Chen Xu.

Even if Wen Zhao treats Liu Bei's three brothers very well, this ending is inevitable.

Moreover, under Chen Xu, it is difficult for Liu Bei to develop his power. Therefore, after he learned that Sun Ce was named the pastor of Yuzhou, he rushed to Jingzhou without hesitation.

He also understood that no matter how well Chen Xu treated him, he was just a chess piece in Chen Xu's hands.

This time he made up his mind to rush to Jingzhou, Liu Bei's mind was also extremely complicated, he didn't know where his future was, and he didn't know whether his ambition could be realized.

Although he was tenacious, he had been running around all these years, and to this day he has been useless. After seeing Sima Yi's talent, Liu Bei also deeply felt the tremendous role of a top strategist.

But he also knew that he was not from a good background, and now he had no status, he was just a lost dog, and it was difficult for those talented scribes to defect to him.

Every time he thinks of this, Liu Bei always feels a deep loss in his heart. Riding a war horse galloping in the official road, Liu Bei's thoughts drifted far away, far away......

"Where is my path?"

Liu Bei asked himself and shouted loudly, but no one told him the real answer.

……

This year is another harvest season, but almost the entire Han Dynasty is shrouded in war.

After the grain in the fields was ripe, some people fled with their families in order to avoid the scourge of war, and there was no time to harvest the crops.

Even though some people endure the fear of war and stay at home to finish harvesting the grain, they do not dare to continue sowing. In this case, will the Han Dynasty usher in another famine in the coming year?

In troubled times, natural disasters are terrible, and man-made disasters are even more terrifying. And war is the biggest man-made disaster.

Now the wars in Hanzhong, Liangzhou, Jizhou, and Youzhou have stopped, and only Sun Ce and Cao Cao are still fighting for Yuzhou.

Cao Mengde relied on Guo Jia, Xun You, Xun Yu and others to help, plus the elite soldiers, and the edge was exposed; Sun Bofu must take the lead in every battle, and all the children of Jiangdong fought bravely to kill the enemy.

In addition, Zhou Yu is also very human, and the two princes are like needles against Maimang, and they are inseparable for a while, and the land of Yuzhou has become mournful.

However, it was said that Sun Ce was rewarded by the imperial court and became the pastor of Yuzhou, and he was even more determined to drive Cao Cao out of Yuzhou completely.

Sun Ce is not Liu Bei, he can sit back and watch Cao Cao occupy the Lu State and Pei State.

What's more, now Cao Cao's power in Yuzhou is getting stronger and stronger, and only Runan County and Yingchuan County are still under Sun Ce's control, making him, the pastor of Yuzhou, a little unworthy of his name.

It's just that during this period of war, in the process of fighting Cao Cao, the two won and lost each other.

Sun Ce felt that Cao Cao was by no means an easy person, and he was not comparable to the princes in Jiangdong who were swept away by him.

On this day, Sun Ce fought again for a day, and returned to the camp covered in blood, but saw Zhou Yu with a sad face.

Sun Ce handed the spear in his hand to the others and said, "Gong Jin, why are you frowning today? ”

Zhou Yu said: "Cao Mengde's strength is strong, and if the lord wants to defeat him in a hurry, I'm afraid it's impossible. Jingzhou Liu Biao and the lord are feuding, and they have coveted Jiangdong for a long time. ”

Now Liu Bei's three brothers have gone to Liu Biao again, which has made Jingzhou even more powerful. If Liu Biao reuses Liu Bei, with the talent and virtue of Jingzhou, plus the courage of Guan Yu and Zhang Fei, he will become a big trouble for the lord in the future. ”

Sun Ce pondered for a long time before sighing: "I naturally know what Gong Jin said, but how can I easily give up the land of Yuzhou?" ”

Zhou Yu said: "If the lord continues to compete with Cao Mengde for Yuzhou, in fact, it is not known who will win and who will lose. Even if the lord finally seized the entire Yuzhou, he would inevitably have a bad relationship with Cao Mengde. ”

"If you don't catch it, I'm afraid it will lead to disaster."

Zhou Yu's worries were not unfounded, if Sun Ce really seized the land of Yuzhou, the northeast would be the newly resentful Cao Cao, the north would be the ambitious Yuan Shao, and the northwest would be the wolf-like Chen Xu.

As for the West, there is also the feud of Liu Biao, who often fights with Jiangdong.

Yuan Shao and Cao Cao are allies, Sun Ce has a grudge with Cao Cao, and the relationship with Yuan Shao will not be much better. At that time, Jiangdong Ke really became embattled.

What's more, Cao Cao is a very human being, and there are also many talents under his account, so it is definitely a very difficult thing to drive Cao Cao out of Yuzhou.

If he is not careful, Sun Ce will even lose Runan and Yingchuan.

Sun Ce walked back and forth in the tent with his hands behind his back, and asked with a serious face: "Gong Jin has a way to break the current situation?" ”

Although Sun Ce has the courage of an overlord, he is also very similar to the overlord of Western Chu, brave and diligent. However, he did not have Xiang Yu's stubbornness, but often adopted advice.

Zhou Yu pondered for a long time, and then said slowly: "For example, the situation today has gradually become clearer. Among the princes, it even became a copy of the Warring States period. ”

"Yuan Benchu occupied the land of the old Yan, and there is still half of the territory of the Zhao State, which can be regarded as the newly emerging Yan State; Cao Mengdehu occupied the two states of Qingxu and Xu, and also occupied half of Yuzhou, which was more powerful than the Qi state during the Warring States period. ”

"As for the vast land of Chu, it was divided between the lord and Liu Biao of Jingzhou. In this way, a situation was formed in which the four princes stood together. ”

However, Chen Wenzhao occupied part of the territory of the old Qin, Zhao, and Wei, and his strength was extremely inflated, and he had the tendency of the former strong Qin to sweep the world. In the future, the Han Dynasty will inevitably form a situation in which the five countries will compete for hegemony. ”

Sun Ce was stunned for a moment, and suddenly asked, "Yizhou Liu Jiyu, why didn't Gongjin mention it?" ”

Zhou Yu chuckled twice, shook his head and said: "Hanzhong, the gateway to the north of Yizhou, has been lost, and Liu Jiyu's foundation will become Chen Wenzhao's bag sooner or later." ”

"What can you do with such characters?"

Sun Ce suddenly realized, and asked a little tentatively: "If Chen Wenzhao captures Yizhou again, he will have Bingzhou, Sili, Liangzhou, and Yizhou, almost occupying half of the Han Dynasty." ”

"Gong Jin is reminding me to guard against Chen Wenzhao, like the Qin State during the Warring States Period, sweeping the world?"

Zhou Yu bowed slightly, stroked his beard and said: "Chen Wenzhao's forces are too strong, if he hadn't withdrawn his troops out of fear this time, Yuan Benchu would definitely not be his opponent." ”

"Not only Yuan Benchu, but also none of the princes in the world can resist Chen Wenzhao alone."
