Cheng Yu took the news about Guan Yu and Zhang Fei and went directly to the Prefectural Mufu to meet Liu Bei.
"good."
Hearing that the two counties of Guanghan had been captured, Liu Bei's anxious heart dropped back into his stomach. He had hundreds of thousands of soldiers and horses to capture these two areas, which could be considered as enough to fight a battle.
"My lord, the two counties of Guanghan and Han have been given to us. The next problem is the Southern Barbarians."
Huang Quan glanced at Liu Bei and directly said the most critical issue now, how should they respond when the Southern Barbarians send troops, whether it be war, peace or what.
"Brother Gongheng, the Nanman army sending 150,000 troops is not a small number. If we want to shut them out now, they will definitely not agree, and there will inevitably be a fierce battle. Now there is Yuan Shu's army in the north, and the battle with the Nanman people is actually going on.
It is unwise,
Instead of doing this, it is better to make mistakes, form a joint force with them, and repel Yuan Shu's troops together. After their strength is exhausted, they can counterattack and defeat them in one fell swoop.
Then, taking advantage of the weakness of the Southern Barbarians, go south in one fell swoop and wipe out the four southern counties. In this way, we can not only capture the four southern counties of Yizhou, but also completely solve the Nanbarite disaster that has plagued Yizhou for a long time. Why not?"
Cheng Yu glanced at Huang Quan. He knew that the interests of the four southern counties of Yizhou were valued by the Yizhou people, but now it was a foregone conclusion that the Nanman people would go north. If they fell out with the Nanman people, they would only be able to take advantage of Yuan Shu. Instead of doing this, they could only unite with the Nanman people.
Fight against Yuan Shu together, wait until Yuan Shu is defeated, and then attack the Nanman people.
"Gongheng, Ziqiao, what do you think?"
After Cheng Yu finished speaking, Liu Bei directly looked at Huang Quan and Zhang Song in the hall.
Huang Quan and Zhang Song looked at each other when they heard Liu Bei's question.
"I think what Zhongde said is true. We really cannot fall out with the Nanman people now. We should use the Nanman people to consume Yuan Shu."
Huang Quan nodded slightly, clasped his fist directly towards Yuan Shu, and agreed to Cheng Yu's plan.
"I also think this plan is feasible."
Zhang Song also clasped his fists and agreed with Cheng Yu's method.
"Okay, let's do it this way. Cheng Yu will use you as Yizhou's military advisor and governor to fight Yuan Shu and contact the Southern Barbarians."
Since both of them had no objections, Liu Bei directly ordered Cheng Yu to be the military advisor and governor of all battles against Yuan Shu.
"Cheng Yu takes the order."
Cheng Yu directly cupped his fists at Liu Bei and accepted the order.
"Gongheng, Ziqiao, you must assist Zhongde with all your strength, and resist Yuan Shu as your first priority."
Liu Bei glanced at Huang Quan and Zhang Song. Although he appointed Governor Cheng Yu to fight against Yuan Shu, this still required the strong support of local nobles such as Huang Quan and Zhang Song.
"Huang Quan should fully cooperate with the military advisor."
"Zhang Song will naturally cooperate with the military advisor."
Huang Quan and Zhang Song glanced at Liu Bei and clasped their fists to express their support for Cheng Yu's actions.
"Okay, our principals and ministers will definitely be able to repel Yuan Shu, capture the Southern Barbarians, and protect Yizhou if we work together. We will also send people to Brazil and Bajun to contact Qiao Zhou and Yan Yan and tell them the news here."
Liu Bei stood up immediately after hearing what the two men said. He believed that as long as Yizhou could unite as one, he would definitely be able to repel Yuan Shu and keep Yizhou intact.
"My lord is wise."
"My lord is wise."
"My lord is wise."
Everyone clasped fists together.
Liu Bei stabilized Yizhou, which he had just captured from Liu Yan, and the scouts who originally went north from Guanghan County also found traces of Yuan Shu.
"who?"
Zhang Ping's men were immediately surrounded by Xuanwei Army cavalry wandering outside.
"I am the envoy of Mianyang guard Zhang Ping. I have something to ask to see Yuan Zhoumu."
Although he was surrounded, the man didn't panic at all, but was a little surprised.
"The envoy of Mianyang Guards?"
Hearing what that man said, the team members were stunned. They hadn't arrived at Zitong yet, so why did the Mianzhu general send someone here.
"Well, Liu Bei of Chengdu is admonishing Liu Yan, and now Liu Yan has ceded the position of Zhou Mu to Liu Bei. My general does not want to obey, so he sent me to find Yuan Zhou Mu, hoping to surrender."
After looking at the team's numbers, he could only tell the truth about his purpose of coming, and at the same time, he also told about the changes in Chengdu.
"Follow me to see the lord immediately."
After hearing what the man said was so serious, the team leader did not dare to neglect and took him directly towards the direction of the army.
"My lord, Mianyang guard Wang Ping's envoy wants to see you."
The team leader took him all the way to Yuan Shu's army and directly reported what he knew to Jia Xu. Jia Xu did not dare to hesitate and took him directly to see Yuan Shu.
"The messenger of Mianyang Guards?
Bring it in."
Although I don’t know why this person is here, since Jia Xu has brought him, there must be something going on.
"The villain Hu Ding pays homage to Yuan Zhoumu."
When Hu Ding saw Yuan Shu, he knelt down and saluted Yuan Shu.
"Huding, why are you here?"
After looking at Hu Ding who was kneeling on the ground, Yuan Shu looked at Jia Xu who was standing next to him.
"Sir, there has been a change in the situation in Chengdu. Because Liu Yan led the southern barbarians into Yizhou, Liu Bei directly united with the local nobles in Yizhou to launch a military revolt. Now Liu Yan has ceded the position of Zhou Mu to Liu Bei. He has now sent people to Guanghan County to recruit surrender.
The garrison, my general Wang Ping wants to surrender, sir."
Hu Ding directly read the news he received to Yuan Shu.
"What did you say?
Liu Yan led the southern barbarian troops into Yizhou, Liu Bei united with the local gentry soldiers to remonstrate, and now he has ceded the position of Yizhou Mu to Liu Bei?"
Yuan Shu is really confused now. What is going on?
I'm about to go to Chengdu, why are you trying to make the biggest comeback of the year for me?
"Well, that's true. My general will wait for a reply from you. If you agree, he will lead his soldiers to dedicate Mianyang to you."
Hu Ding nodded firmly. To be honest, this reversal was a bit hard to accept, but it was the fact, even though it was bloody.
"Okay, you go down and rest first."
Yuan Shu frowned and asked Hu Ding to be taken down to rest.
"promise."
Hu Ding directly clasped his fists, and then went down to rest under the leadership of Yuan Shu's personal guards.
"Wenhe, what do you think?"
Hu Ding left, and Yuan Shu looked directly at Jia Xu, who was standing next to him.
"I feel that it is over to go to Mianyang now. If Liu Bei really unites the local gentry in Yizhou, then although Wang Ping, the defender of Mianyang City, wants to surrender, the soldiers under his command will definitely not agree. Mianyang may be gone now.
"
Although Hu Ding said that Wang Ping wanted to dedicate Mianyang City to himself, but that was just what he thought. The people below would definitely not give him this opportunity. After all, their families were in the hands of Liu Bei, so Mianyang was destined to be destroyed.
Liu Bei occupied it.
"Then there's nothing we can do now?"
Hearing what Jia Xu said, Yuan Shu frowned. He had never expected that he had reached the last step. Liu Bei, who had been suppressed before, actually stood up and became his own person.
Take the stumbling block to Yizhou,
Cao Cao and Yuan Shao were both defeated by him, but Liu Bei became more and more courageous like an immortal Xiaoqiang. He really deserves to be the famous Liu Paopao in history.
"Lord, there is still something we can do now. Although he has captured Liu Yan and Guanghan counties in Chengdu, this is the maximum he can do. Other counties will definitely not agree with Liu Bei who suddenly came to power.
,
Now as long as we send people out to discuss with those governors, they will definitely not choose Liu Bei, and will most likely surrender to us. In this way, we can attack Chengdu as quickly as possible, and we must capture Liu Bei before the southern barbarian soldiers arrive."
Jia Xu thought for a while that Mianyang would definitely be controlled by Liu Bei, but other than these two counties, other places would definitely not do it easily.
After all, Liu Bei is now allied with the Yizhou nobles. These people must have some agenda in supporting Liu Bei. If they surrender to Liu Bei, their power will be taken over by the Yizhou nobles. Instead of surrendering to Liu Bei, it is better to surrender to themselves.
So what he can do now is to seize the time. While the governors are still hesitating, he directly sends people to negotiate and capture them. Then the army speeds up and destroys Liu Bei before the southern barbarian reinforcements arrive.
"Well, then immediately send people to Zitong to discuss the surrender with their governor, and send a telegram to Gongda and Gongtai, asking them to send people respectively to capture those governors as quickly as possible. As for the conditions, they can agree to transfer
Take a job elsewhere."
Yuan Shu nodded to Jia Xu and immediately sent someone to implement it.
A group of scouts immediately ran towards Zitong, and at the same time the telegram was sent directly to Xun You in Baxi County and Chen Gong in Bajun.
