Liu Bei secretly shook his head. Although Guan Yu didn't say it explicitly, he could feel Guan Yu's rejection of Zhuge Liang.

"Now the King of Jin is leading an army of 70,000 troops and is on his way to Fuguan. If you have any good ideas to defeat the enemy, just speak up." Liu Bei said slowly.

"Since eldest brother is here, the three brothers and I will gallop on the battlefield together and we will definitely be able to defeat King Jin's army." Zhang Fei shouted.

"Yide, don't underestimate the enemy. The soldiers and horses under the command of the King of Jin are extremely powerful, and the King of Jin is very skilled in martial arts. He is not a person of Yi Yi. I heard that Yide encountered the King of Jin on the way to lead the cavalry to support Zitong, and fought with him?

"Liu Bei asked.

Zhang Fei said with a red face: "My subordinates fought against King Jin, but they couldn't win."

Liu Bei comforted him and said: "It doesn't matter. Now there are strong generals from Yizhou gathered in the city, so the King of Jin has nothing to fear."

Ma Chao, who had remained silent, said: "My lord, the enemy army is strong, but transporting grain and grass will definitely have a lot of inconveniences. If a cavalry is sent to attack the enemy's grain road, it will definitely play a huge role."

Liu Bei said: "What Meng Qi said is true. I have heard that the Xiliang cavalry under Meng Qi's command are brave and good at fighting and are invincible on the battlefield. I wonder if Meng Qi is willing to lead the cavalry to complete this task?"

"My subordinates take orders." Ma Chao said with clasped fists. He stood up at this time just to fight. He understood that no matter what kind of army he was in, if he wanted to achieve something, he must have something he could use.

Merit counts, and it cannot be changed in the Yizhou army. Although Ma Chao is in awe of Lu Bu, there is a deep hatred between the two, not to mention that Han Sui has now defected to Lu Bu.

"Meng Qi can lead a thousand cavalry to cut off the enemy's food routes. Remember not to act recklessly. There are many fierce generals under the King of Jin's tent, and there are even more resourceful people like Guo Jia in the army." Liu Bei warned.

"Here." Ma Chao said excitedly, clasping his fists. What he felt from Liu Bei's tone was care and trust. This feeling was not found in Hanzhong.

"Meng Qi should return to the army and make preparations. This matter must be kept secret in order to have greater effect." Liu Bei said.

"I understand." Ma Chao bowed and left in a hurry.

Sending cavalry to cut off the enemy's food routes is a normal thing on the battlefield. Especially when Lu Bu leads a large army, it is very difficult. The lieutenants and officers are not familiar with the terrain of Yizhou, which is their shortcoming.

I stayed in Yizhou because I was unfamiliar with the terrain. The terrain in Yizhou is extremely complicated. The road that was flat one moment may become steep the next moment.

"Ma Chao is the commander-in-chief of the Xiliang cavalry. When he was in Liangzhou, he led his troops to fight against the King of Jin. When the allied forces of the princes attacked Huguan, he led the army to break through Longguan and intimidate Chang'an. Unfortunately, Han Sui's rebellion made Ma Chao

The success fell short." Liu Bei said regretfully.

"Brother, now General Ma Chao finally has a chance to take revenge." Zhang Fei said.

Liu Bei nodded and said: "Ma Chao is brave and good at fighting, and he is extremely powerful in commanding the cavalry. This trip will definitely be successful."

This time Zhang Fei didn't talk to him. When facing the King of Jin, no one dared to pat their chests and guarantee success. The Xiliang cavalry under Ma Chao was brave, and the flying cavalry under Lu Bu was even more powerful.

On the battlefield in Yizhou, the Xiliang cavalry suffered heavy losses when fighting against the flying cavalry. The Xiliang cavalry back then were more elite than they are now. After entering Yizhou, it was not easy to obtain excellent war horses.

"The important task of guarding Fuguan falls to Yun Chang. Fuguan is an important barrier for Fucheng. If Fuguan is lost, Fucheng will definitely be difficult to defend." Liu Bei said.

"Brother, don't worry, I will definitely defend Fuguan." Guan Yu said, cupping his fists.

After the three brothers discussed it, Guan Yu rushed to Fuguan, while Liu Bei and Zhang Fei were stationed in Fucheng.

It was late at night, but Liu Bei couldn't fall asleep for a long time. He got up and left the room. He had spent his whole life in the military and owned Yizhou. He didn't want Yizhou to fall into war now. He also understood that it was important to defend Yizhou against Lu Bu's attack.

Despite such difficulties, Lu Bu led his troops to conquer the world and rarely failed. Even the world-famous Yuan Shao was wiped out by Lu Bu, which shocked the world at that time.

If Liu Bei is given another two years, he will be confident enough to seize Jiameng Pass from Lu Bu's hands. In this way, Yizhou will be more stable. He does not want Lu Bu to let Cao Cao and Sun Quan fight in Jingzhou, but he is leading the army.

Attack Yizhou.

And Liu Bei had secretly scolded Sun Quan and Cao Cao. He clearly saw that Lu Bu was powerful, but at this time, the two of them fought in Jingzhou and watched Lu Bu lead an army to attack Yizhou. If Yizhou was defeated by Lu Bu, let me ask the princes of the world,

Who can compete with Lu Bu?

Before the battle between the two, Liu Bei sent envoys to Jiangdong and Xudu, but did not receive a satisfactory answer. At that time, Jiangdong had a close relationship with Lu Bu, so naturally he would not easily agree to the request of the Yizhou envoy, even if Yizhou had people like Liu Qi.

Your Majesty, at the most critical moment in Jiangdong, it was Lu Bu who took action to help Jiangdong survive the crisis.

As for Cao Cao, he had plans for Jingzhou. Even if Lu Bu led the troops to attack Yizhou, it would be difficult to break through Chang'an. The checkpoints around Chang'an were dangerous, and Jia Xu was the one Lu Bu relied on.

During Lü Bu's battles, Jia Xu was always at the rear. Jia Xu's ability was unquestionable. When the army of the princes attacked Huguan, Jia Xu was the only one under Lü Bu's command to advise the army, but he achieved the final victory.

If there is an alliance with Yizhou, who in the two courts is the orthodox one? Therefore, it is very difficult for Liu Bei’s envoys to succeed in Xudu. Officials in Xudu are naturally repelled by Yizhou. People with certain knowledge will

Perhaps it can be seen that the situation in the world is critical at this time, but Liu Bei is definitely not willing to admit that the Han Dynasty in Xudu is the orthodox one.

No matter how weak the strength of the Han Dynasty is now, and the so-called dignity is constantly trampled by the princes, there are still many people who regard themselves as ministers of the Han Dynasty. In Yizhou, the Han Dynasty has a considerable influence. This is consistent with

Liu Zhang's efforts at the beginning were inseparable. If Liu Bei recognized that the Han Dynasty in Xu Du was orthodox, Yizhou would definitely be plunged into turmoil, and he would also become Yizhou's sinner.

Yizhou is orthodox, and the family can get a greater reputation from it. Although their official positions are nothing in the eyes of the princes today, it still means that they were once extremely popular ministers. No one can refuse such temptations, and the imperial court

His official position became an important means for Liu Bei to win over the Yizhou family.

There is no shortage of Sangong and Jiuqing from aristocratic families, and in Xudu, there are also Sangong and Jiuqing. If Yizhou loses in name, it means that Yizhou's Sangong and Jiuqing are all fake.
