Sun Qian's expression changed, he frowned and asked, "Mr. Xu, how can you not choose?"
Xu Shu smiled slightly, "Why not?"
Mi Zhu sneered, "Xu Shu, it's like taking a step, either forward or backward. Do you have a choice?"
Xu Shu turned his head to Mi Zhu, cupped his hands, and asked with a smile, "Mi Biejia, in addition to moving forward and backward, can't we go left or right?"
"You?"
Mi Zhu was a little angry, but couldn't defend herself. She could only snort, "It's unreasonable."
Xu Shu cupped his hands towards Liu Bei and said slowly, "Liu Shijun, I think these two options are not good, so I just didn't choose them."
Liu Bei frowned, "Mr. Xu, what should I do if I don't choose?"
Xu Shu smiled slightly and said slowly, "Shijun Liu, Yuan Gongdao hates Cao Mengde and is eager to eliminate him, so he came to join forces with us.
If we think about it on the other hand, Cao Mengde probably has the same idea and wants to eliminate Yuan Jiujiu.
Yuan Jiujiu is very powerful. As long as we jointly eliminate Cao Mengde, he will definitely launch troops in Xuzhou.
And his strength is far greater than that of Liu Shijun, so it is not a wise move to join forces with him.
Cao Mengde suffered a setback in Yanzhou and his strength was greatly reduced. If we unite and defeat Yuan Jiujiu together, after we win, at least we don't have to worry about Cao Mengde launching troops against us. Therefore, I believe that joining forces with Cao Mengde is our best choice now. ”
As soon as these words came out, everyone in the hall lit up and couldn't help but exclaimed.
"Unite with Cao Mengde?"
"Yes, since we can't unite with Yuan Jiujiu, why not join forces with Cao Mengde and defeat Yuan Jiujiu together."
Liu Bei's eyes lit up when he heard this, and he was ecstatic in his heart. The worries just now had already disappeared. If the city hadn't been so deep, he might have looked up to the sky and laughed wildly. But despite this, there were still bursts of smiles at the corners of his mouth.< /p>
"What Mr. Xu said is true."
Jian Yong couldn't help laughing, "Although Liu Shijun and Cao Mengde have suffered a setback in strength, it is really possible for us to unite to fight Yuan Gongli."
Sun Qian smiled and said, "If the battle is successful, Yuan Gongli can be driven out of Huainan."
He didn't finish what he said, but Liu Bei had already imagined what he wanted to say.
As long as Yuan Jiujiu is defeated and driven out of Huainan, this unowned land will be merged into Xuzhou. By then, he can hardly imagine how much land he will have under his control.< /p>
How big is Xuzhou plus Huainan?
Everyone present was thinking about this issue, as if they had successfully joined forces with Cao Mengde and defeated Yuan Gongli.
A smile appeared on Mi Zhu's stern face at this moment. She looked at Xu Shu and nodded repeatedly, "Mr. Xu, I didn't expect that you are so talented. It's really admirable."
Hearing this, Liu Bei reacted from the surprise, stood up hurriedly, and quickly came to Xu Shu's side, "Mr. Xu is really a great talent. His words are worth ten years of reading. I wonder if I can talk to a certain Bingzhu Ye?"
”
When Xu Shu heard Liu Bei's words, a hint of excitement flashed in his eyes.
After all, he was willing to walk into this room just because he wanted to take refuge with Liu Bei. Now that he saw Liu Bei being so kind, he felt a little touched.
Xu Shu hurriedly handed over his hand and said, "I am just a commoner, how dare you disturb Ambassador Liu?"
Liu Bei waved his hand and said with a smile, "Sir, you are a great talent. Although you are just a commoner now, you are just an unappreciated talent."
At this point, Liu Bei actually bowed his hands deeply to Xu Shu, "Bei is not talented. I want to invite you to come to Xuzhou to work. I wonder if you can agree?"
When Xu Shu saw Liu Bei saluting him, he was even more moved. He hurriedly stepped forward to help him, and said with a smile, "As long as Liu Shijun doesn't dislike him, I am willing to help Liu Shijun solve his problems."
Liu Bei was immediately overjoyed, "Sir, from today on, you will be the military advisor. Everyone will obey your command. Anyone who disobeys will be dealt with according to military law."
In fact, when Liu Bei heard the name Xu Shu, he already knew who it was?
In the game, he has heard other players say that he will recruit several important strategists in the future.
Xu Shu, Zhuge Liang, Pang Tong and others are all the most important people in his city.
After Liu Bei came to Xuzhou, he sent many people to Jingzhou to inquire about the whereabouts of these people. Unfortunately, the news they brought back was that these people had traveled far away and could not be found.
However, he heard another sentence from the player, that is, Xu Shu entered Cao's camp without saying a word.
He was a little confused at first, but after hearing the explanations from the players, he finally understood the meaning, and suddenly felt a pity in his heart.
The reason why he didn't say it directly just now was because he wanted to see how capable Xu Shu, who the players said was very helpful to him, really was.
After some trial and error, Liu Bei finally understood that there is no such thing as a dishonest person under a great reputation.
Xu Shu is indeed talented, a great talent.
He originally thought that Jian Yong, Sun Qian and others around him were already considered wise people, but now it seems that compared with Xu Shu, they are completely different.
Xu Shu solved the problem that caused everyone a lot of headaches with ease.
Liu Bei thought of Xu Shu's talent and the player's words, and pretended to be casual and said, "Sir, I wonder who else is in your family?"
He had long known that Xu Shu had an old mother at home, but he couldn't let others see that he knew, so he could only ask once.
Xu Shu hurriedly handed over his hand and said, "Thank you very much, Mr. Liu, for thinking about me. I still have an old mother at home."
Liu Bei nodded, "Since your husband is here in Xuzhou, why not send someone to pick up your mother immediately so that it can be taken care of easily? What do you think?"
Liu Bei didn't want Xu Shu's mother to be taken away by Cao Cao as the player said. As a result, Xu Shu was extremely filial and had no choice but to follow his mother, causing him to lose a peerless military advisor.
When Xu Shu heard Liu Bei's words, he was greatly moved and hurriedly handed over his hand, "Thank you very much, Ambassador Liu. This is a small matter. When I go home, it won't be too late to come to my mother's house."
How could Liu Bei agree? If something goes wrong, it would be a waste of effort.
"Sir, you don't have to be polite. Just tell me your address and I'll have someone pick you up, so you won't have to worry about it."
Seeing that Liu Bei's expression didn't look like he was faking it, Xu Shu was even more moved and told him his home address.
After Liu Bei heard the address, he immediately ordered someone to go there. He must take the person back to Xuzhou before anything happened.
According to players, Xu Shu's talent is almost as good as Zhuge Liang's. Now that Liu Bei knows about such a great talent, he will never miss it.
After the soldiers who went to pick him up set off, Liu Bei didn't bother to discuss things anymore, and immediately ordered people to hold a banquet to welcome Xu Shu and celebrate his arrival.
