The news that Liu Bei sent troops to Hanzhong soon spread to Jinyang.

"What should we do? He went to fight on his own, should we just stand by and watch?" Zhang Mo looked at everyone sitting and asked with a headache.

Lu Bu hummed, "Just watch from the sidelines. I can see Liu Da'er clearly. He is sure that you will be soft-hearted. He will attack first and then show off. He sent troops from our pass. He is sure that for the sake of our brothers and sisters, you will not be serious."

Ignoring him is just intentional."

"Senior brother wouldn't think so, would he?!"

Zhang Mo still trusted Liu Bei's character. Although many people in later generations said that he was fake benevolence and righteousness, she felt that he was truly benevolent and righteous before Liu Cong betrayed his trust and defected to Cao Cao. At that time, Zhuge Liang persuaded him to seize Xiangyang, but Liu Bei

Due to benevolence and righteousness, he did not go to Xiangyang despite being betrayed. Instead, he dragged hundreds of thousands of people south to Jiangling. As a result, not only did he lose Jingzhou in vain, but he also suffered a huge defeat at Changbanpo.

Zhang Mo believes that it was after this battle that Liu Bei gradually abandoned some flashy ideas and became more diplomatic. For example, he borrowed Jingzhou from Soochow to prevent Sun Quan from attacking Yizhou, but he turned around and attacked Liu Bei.

Zhang, who occupied Yizhou, was scolded by Sun Quan, "A cunning rogue, so deceitful."

Historically, Liu Bei experienced repeated failures and received Zhuge Liang's guidance before changing his ideas. Now that he has only experienced the defeat of Xuzhou, he should not abandon his benevolence and righteousness so quickly, and use retreat to advance.

Circumstances forced Bingzhou to send troops to help him.

Jia Xu said, "I think your lord is right. During that time, Uncle Liu visited almost all the staff in the Tang Palace. Who would believe him if he said he didn't have any thoughts? Although he and the princess didn't have much interaction, after all, they were teachers.

Fellow disciple,

That day he wanted to go to Xuzhou to rescue Tao Qian, but his senior brother Gongsun Zan generously gave him 3,000 troops. Now that he is sending troops from Guanzhong to fight against the rebellion, wouldn't it look stingy and unkind if the princess didn't show her support?

"

"Do you also think he did it on purpose?" Zhang Mo asked.

Tian Feng nodded, but Chen Gong didn't respond. Xu You said, "Whether he did it intentionally or not is not really important. The problem is that he is determined to attack Zhang Lu. With his few people, there is definitely no chance. If he retreats, that's it. What if he retreats?"

If he dies in battle, then the world will definitely say that it is great

The king and the princess looked on with cold eyes and did nothing to save him. The king has cultivated his reputation for many years, but he wants to be stained by it. In my opinion, it is better to send some people to follow him and take a look. If he can be beaten, we can help him. If not, we can

If you have tried hard enough, you can silence others."

Lu Bu looked unhappy, "He is going to die himself, why should we help him?"

Tian Feng twirled his beard and smiled, "If it's just to silence others, it's really not necessary. However, I think there's nothing wrong with helping Uncle Liu conquer Hanzhong."

"What good can it do?" Lu Bu obviously disagreed with Tian Feng's suggestion.

Tian Feng explained, "Cao Mengde has already formed an alliance with Gongsun Bogui. Kong Wenju of Beihai has clearly stated his support for the Changyi court. Zang Ba of Taishan is sandwiched between Gongsun and Cao, and will fall into one of them sooner or later. Although Yuan Shu has not expressed anything yet, but my lord

After annexing his brother's power, he basically regarded our country, the Tang Dynasty, as his number one enemy.

Except for Uncle Liu Huang, the Tang State has almost no allies. Help him capture Hanzhong, and let him guard the southern gate of Yongzhou to resist Liu Fan of Yizhou. After we capture Liangzhou, all threats from the west will be eliminated, and the king can hoard all his troops.

In Jizhou and Henan, concentrate on raiding the Central Plains."

Tian Feng didn't know that Liu Bei in history had occupied a place on the stage where heroes were dancing in the late Han Dynasty. His analysis was completely correct. Liu Bei's occupation of Hanzhong was indeed much better than Zhang Lu. However, Zhang Mo, a veteran, had no regard for Liu Bei.

She has a strong sense of precaution. She is afraid that after Hanzhong is captured, Yizhou will fall into Liu Bei's hands in a few years. If a Shu Han appears, it will take many more years to unify the country.

Zhang Mo still didn't want to help Liu Bei, but Lu Bu changed his attitude after hearing Tian Feng's words. He whispered to Zhang Mo, "You said that Liu Da'er in history ended his wandering career after he got Kong Ming. Now

Not only was there no

Kong Ming doesn't even have a decent counselor. Even if he takes Hanzhong, with his three brothers and Chen Deng, Jian Yong and a few low-ranking counselors, I think he can only stick to one county and it will be difficult to achieve great things. It's better to just

Ask him to keep an eye on Liu Fan for us?"

Zhang Mo then thought about it, and what her husband said was not unreasonable. She had poached several of the top members of Liu Bei's advisers. Zhang Lu didn't have any particularly outstanding talents for him to recruit, and Liu Bei himself didn't have any strategies.

How could it be so easy to swallow up the huge Yizhou?

Thinking about Tian Feng's words again, if Cao Cao really unites the princes of the world to destroy Lu, she has no confidence that she can fight against everyone as a family. It seems that she can tie Liu Bei over.

However... for the sake of safety, Zhang Mo finally decided to adopt Xu You's suggestion and asked Taishi Ci to send a team to follow him.

friendship.

Zhang Mo considered it very comprehensively. She even thought about the top counselors in the Three Kingdoms to make sure that Liu Bei had not missed it before making this decision.

However, things are unpredictable, and no one could have imagined that history would have another chance. On the way Liu Bei led his troops into Chencang Road, he actually met a hidden master who changed his destiny.

It is said that one day Liu Bei and his party passed by a bamboo forest and vaguely heard the sound of a piano coming from the forest. Zhang Fei, who was also poisoned by the stories of monsters and ghosts, immediately thought that this was the immortal from the mountain calling them, so he encouraged Liu Bei to go and have a look.

Liu Bei didn't believe in fairy tales, but now that he had developed the method of dreaming with light, meeting an immortal on the road would be even more convincing.

So Liu Bei took Guan and Zhang to the bamboo forest following the sound of the piano. They saw a middle-aged man with disheveled hair, bare chest and bare feet sitting on a boulder playing the piano. When Liu Bei was young, he liked beautiful clothes, music, dogs and horses, but his piano skills were not necessarily

How high, but he appreciates it very much. From the man's music, he could hear the man's depression, which was almost exactly the same as his own mood some time ago.

After the song ended, Liu Bei came up to chat with him. After listening to Liu Bei's self-introduction, the man was confused for a while and asked, "Is there Liu Xuande among the Han clan members?"

Liu Bei smiled awkwardly and explained his ancestors. The man nodded after listening, "It turns out that he is a descendant of the clan!"

"I don't know what your reputation is, sir?" Liu Bei asked, cupping his hands.

"I'm..." The man suddenly thought of something, paused and said, "You're a rough guy from the mountains, I won't even mention him by his humble name!"

Another one who didn't want to be named? Liu Bei looked depressed, but thinking about the scene when he met Guo Jia that day, Liu Bei vaguely felt that this might also be an expert.

"Why do you, sir, live alone in the mountains?"

The man gathered up his clothes and tied them up, and said casually, "Uncle Huang walked all the way from Chencang. Along the way, he should have seen many people living in seclusion in the mountains and forests. Like them, they all chose to live in seclusion because they had no place to stand in the mortal world.

Mountain forest.”

"Sir, your piano skills are very high. You must be very talented and knowledgeable. Why is there no place for you?" Liu Bei was confused at first, but then he didn't care and immediately extended the invitation. "Sir, if you don't mind, can you help me?"

Can I lend a hand?"
