"Maybe, there is another possibility..."

"Wuzhong Eight Jue, maybe except for the three old men who play chess, calligraphy and painting, they are really capable, and the others... are probably the guise created by Sun Quan!"

Lin Chen looked at Zheng Yu who was talking to Liu Bei, and an idea came to his mind.

This guess can actually be firmly calculated by calculating those people's past and combining with what Sun Quan is going to do.

First of all, those three, especially when Wu Fan appeared, would give Sun Quan an excuse to do things he wanted to do but could not do.

For example, attacking Huang Zu.

Is this what the Sun family only started to do after Wu Fan arrived?

No, no.

From the beginning when Sun Ce, the Sun family had already begun to attack Huang Zu continuously. After all, the latter was the former's enemy of killing his father.

It can be said that since the rise of the Sun family, there may not have been enough other things, but the only thing that attacked Huang Zu was done once every few years.

Based on history, we will find that before Huang Zu failed in the 13th year of Jian'an (208), he had already shown signs of weakness.

Historical records: In the 11th year of Jian'an (206), the general under Cao Cao, Zhang Liao, attacked Jiangxia County, and at least two counties in the northern part of Jiangxia County fell into the hands of Cao's army.

The next year, that is, the 12th year of Jian'an, Sun Quan once again fought westward. This time there was no definite record of the battle. Historical books say that he was captured and returned.

So is it possible that when Huang Zu's power was weakened during the battle with Cao Cao in the 11th year of Jian'an?

Zhou Yu was still alive at that time. Will he make up for this matter and then secretly arrange some people in Jiangxia the following year?

After all, in this era, Zhou Yu was the one who used the best counter-espionage plan.

Based on the above history, is it possible that the situation at that time was: the first year of attacking, some layout was made on the local area, and then the next year, when Sun Quan was almost sure to defeat Huang Zu steadily, he found his close minister Wu Fan to support him?

Some people may ask, what is the use of raising such a charlatan?

This idea is indeed very reasonable in later generations, but in the feudal era, there were too many things that could be done by raising a charlatan.

For example, he can vigorously boast about the land where his master is based; helping his master do some things that his master does not allow, but his master wants to do very much... etc.

If this is the case, Sun Quan could use these powers to do some secret things.

For example, when Liu Bei entered Shu, he wanted to send someone close to him to observe secretly, but if he wanted to do this, he would offend Liu Bei. So Sun Quan lied that one of his subordinates said that he could win Yizhou, and he could send a few people to observe secretly.

Lu Dai followed Liu Bei into Shu, which is a kind of evidence.

Later, when Sun Quan, who tasted this kind of sweetness, saw that Guan Yu was about to fail and was profitable in the 24th year of Jian'an, he used this name again and used a sneak attack under the name of a charlatan.

Of course, the above is just a guess. Lin Chen himself couldn't figure out whether it was the truth.

However, he quickly confirmed this.

While Lin Chen was thinking, Liu Bei had finished chatting with Zheng Yu and watched the other party leave.

Immediately afterwards, he looked at Lin Chen with some loss and said, "A talent like Si Ziyuan is really not something you can meet on the streets casually."

Lin Chen's heart moved and said, "Master, isn't this saying that Zheng Jinyu is just a false name?"

“More than…”

Liu Bei shook his head, leaned over to Lin Chen and lowered his voice, "From me, this person is probably not only as simple as a false reputation, but also wants to plot against us."

"What? This is unlikely, right? The lord is holding a heavy army, why... "Lin Chen was a little confused.

No matter how bad Liu Bei is, he is not something that anyone can calculate.

This is especially true when he holds military power.

"This matter..." Liu Bei was about to explain, but looking at Lin Chen's surprised face, he suddenly smiled and said, "Since Ziyuan is a talented person, why not guess what he is going to do?"

After saying that, he didn't wait for Lin Chen to speak, and said directly: "Let's go, let's go to the camp to find out if there are any big talents who are wandering."

Lin Chen was full of questions, but he knew that Liu Bei would not explain, so he could only keep up silently.

...

In the military camp.

After learning about Liu Bei and Lin Chen's intentions, Guan Yu said to the personal soldiers who were accompanying him: "So quickly order the twenty victorious and brave men in the army to come."

"Here!" the personal soldiers agreed and turned around and left.

"Brother, military advisor."

After giving the order, Guan Yu turned around and said confidently to the two who had already sat down: "Yu has ordered the brave men in the army to come, and I believe there must be the ones needed by the elder brother and the military advisor."

Lin Chen was confused, but seeing that Liu Bei was calm on the surface, he didn't ask much.

"Second brother sit first."

After Liu Bei signaled Guan Yu to sit down, he asked casually: "Did the whole army participate in this screening?"

"yes."

Guan Yu said a word with a pity, explaining: "Now that the army is growing, Yu's men are indeed short of many people available, so he screened it once when Ziyuan and others are busy, and the same is true for the third brother."

The filtering, the available people, and the same goes for Zhang Fei...

Combining these three messages, Lin Chen finally understood what was going on.

Obviously, this is a military competition, but compared with later generations, the real winner can be directly an officer.

At the same time, the information also shows that almost everything is done as long as the team grows.

"But, is it really scientific to choose talents like this?" Lin Chen was not very satisfied with this approach.

Perhaps, after screening, people can indeed suppress their subordinates in terms of force, but are they really capable of being the military commander?

This is something that has to be considered.

Of course, Lin Chen also knew that at present, this relatively rough approach is still very suitable for the current situation.

This is probably the fastest way to master the army at present.

Liu Bei nodded calmly, which showed that he was very clear about it, and then asked again: "Is there anyone who recommends it?"

Guan Yu thought for a while and replied, "There are so many people who know a lot of words and are very knowledgeable about military strategies."

“That’s good.”

Liu Bei was relieved, and turned to think of something, and looked at Lin Chen who was stunned with curiosity: "What are Ziyuan thinking?"

Guan Yu also looked over at the same time.

"nothing."

Lin Chen waved his hand and chuckled, "I'm just thinking about whether I can meet a handsome talent like my second brother later."

"How is this possible?" Liu Bei rolled his eyes and said, "Yun Chang's ability has come out of the army again and again. How can such people be easily encountered?"

"Yes." Guan Yu also said two words in a depressed manner, but looking at his expression, he should be in a good mood, perhaps because of Lin Chen's second brother's name, or perhaps because of his evaluation of his handsomeness.

Lin Chen said awkwardly: "I know it's not easy to meet... but imagine it, it's okay, right?"

While speaking, he was also muttering in his heart: After all, Guan Yu doesn't seem very arrogant now.

Based on his understanding of Guan Yu in history, if others say that they can find a handsome man in the army who is just like him, he would be very unhappy.

But now, he doesn't seem to care at all.

This made Lin Chen feel very strange.

However, when he thought about this, he never thought about it. While he proved himself again and again, Guan Yu had long admired him.

Otherwise, are the words "Military Advisor" casually?

The word "Military Advisor" on the surface means that it is a military commander, but not everyone can call it.

Guan Yu directly called Military Advisor Lin Chen, which is a great recognition in itself.

But this guy doesn't understand the trick at all.

Clip-click...

The sound of footsteps rushed, interrupting what Liu Bei wanted to say.

Guan Yu listened quietly for a moment and said confidently: "They are here."

Liu Bei laughed and stood up and said, "Since the man has arrived, Yun Chang and Ziyuan will come with me to see."

Above the school ground.

The twenty-three people have already stood silently.
