Zhuge Liang was preparing to attack the Yamatai Kingdom in the east, dispatching troops and generals, and the movement of allocating food and grass was a bit loud, so naturally he couldn't hide it from the princes of all parties.

The first one who was nervous was Yuan Shu.

Liu Bei dispatched troops, dispatched generals, dispatched food and grass, and must have dispatched troops.

Jiangdong is settled, Liu Bei will send troops again, it is very likely to send troops to Huainan, this is called chasing after victory.

Yuan Shu ignored the anger brought to him by the Feng family for the time being, and immediately dispatched several generals under his command to lead heavy troops to defend the border city between Huainan and Xuzhou.

The second nervous person is Sun Ce.

Now he has dispatched almost all of the army to the border between Yuzhou and Jingzhou, and the rear is absolutely empty.

Cao Cao had a blood alliance with him and would not send troops to attack his rear, but Liu Bei did not make a blood alliance with him.

Upon hearing the news, Sun Ce's first reaction was to immediately retreat and return to the rear.

It was still Zhou Yu's resourcefulness that told Sun Ce that there was a hatred between Hua Yu and Guan Yu for killing his father, and Liu Bei would never secretly help Hua Yu at this time.

Liu Bei's transfer of troops and supplies may be to take advantage of Gongsun Zan and Yuan Shao's indissoluble battle to raid Qingzhou.

Only then did Sun Ce calm down a bit, and sent a large number of spies to Xuzhou to check for information.

Cao Cao wasn't nervous, he didn't believe that Liu Bei would fight against him at this time and hurt himself.

Although Yanzhou's food and grass were insufficient to support long-distance combat, Cao Cao was not worried about fighting locally.

The third nervous person was Yuan Shao.

Right now, Zhang Yun has managed to gain a firm foothold in Youzhou, and the situation is slightly favorable to Yuan Shao.

If Liu Bei joins the war, he will definitely help Gongsun Zan.

Yuan Shao was reluctant to fight against Gongsun Zan. If Liu Bei suddenly joined the battle, he would undoubtedly lose.

So, after hearing the news, Yuan Shao followed Feng Ji's suggestion and immediately wrote a letter and sent it to Cao Cao.

What Yuan Shao meant was that if Liu Bei really attacked Qingzhou and participated in his dispute with Gongsun Zan, he would let Cao Cao attack Xuzhou and cut off Liu Bei's retreat.

Once Liu Bei is short of food, the army will be in chaos without fighting, and Cao Cao and Yuan Shao will join forces to defeat Liu Bei.

Then, Yuan Shao can concentrate on dealing with Gongsun Zan, and Cao Cao can also take the opportunity to take Xuzhou.

Such a good thing, of course Cao Cao likes it very much.

Therefore, Cao Cao's eyes were fixed on Jingzhou on the left and Qingzhou on the right.

It's not that Guo Jia and Cheng Yu's schemes are a thousand miles behind Hua Yu's, and Zhuge Liang's intentions cannot be seen.

In fact, they didn't know that there was a Yamatai country in the east of Xuzhou, across the vast sea.

They did not know the existence of the Yamatai Kingdom until they searched carefully and found that people from the Yamatai Kingdom came to Jiangdong and met with Liu Bei and Zhuge Liang.

However, across the vast ocean, under unpredictable circumstances, even a person like Guo Jia who is good at taking risks would not dare to think about it rashly.

Yuan Shu thought that Liu Bei was going to fight him, Yuan Shao thought that Liu Bei was going to fight him, Sun Ce and Cao Cao were also concerned about this matter, only Hua Yu knew that Liu Bei was going to attack Yamatai.

After reading the information in his hand, Hua Yu passed the information to Lu Meng.

Lu Meng's brother-in-law is Deng Dang, Deng Dang is the younger brother of Deng Xian, and Deng Xian is the general of Yizhou.

After Hua Yu took Yizhou lightly, Deng Xian naturally surrendered to Hua Yu and became a general under Hua Yu's command.

Deng Dang and Lu Meng followed suit.

Lu Meng was the third governor of Soochow in history. He once crossed the river in white clothes and conquered Jingzhou from Guan Yu. His contribution is second only to Zhou Yu.

Of course, Lu Meng at this time was only thirteen or fourteen years old, still very young.

Therefore, Hua Yu asked Deng Dang's general Lu Meng to come over, stayed with him, and became a soldier.

This situation is almost the same as Zhuge Liang kept Ma Di by his side in history and became a soldier.

Lu Meng took the information, read it carefully, frowned, and muttered to himself: "This Zhuge Kongming is really incomprehensible."

Ever since he learned that Zhuge Liang, who helped Liu Bei defeat Lv Bu to retake Xuzhou and occupy Jiangdong, was about the same age as him, Lu Meng became a little unconvinced.

In particular, Pang Tong was only one year older than Zhuge Liang and him, and he had joined Hua Yu for a short time, but he seemed to be one of Hua Yu's most trusted and respected counselors.

Young people all have the desire to be competitive, so Lu Meng secretly vowed that he would become a talent in both civil and military skills like Hua Yu.

Therefore, after being kept by Hua Yu's side, Lu Meng practiced martial arts during the day and studied military books at night.

When encountering those who couldn't, Lu Meng asked Hua Yu for advice, and both civil and military aspects made rapid progress.

When Xun You and Pang Tong were around, Lu Meng mainly studied literature and martial arts.

Now, Xun You went to meet Ma Teng, Pang Tong went to meet Sun Ce, and for the first time Lu Meng turned from behind to the front.

Seeing that Lu Meng had finished reading the information, Hua Yu knew that Lu Meng would never guess that Zhuge Liang's target was the Yamatai Kingdom, but he also wanted to test Lu Meng, so he couldn't help but asked with a smile: "What does Zi Ming think Zhuge Liang intends?"

Lu Meng was extremely intelligent, of course he understood that Hua Yu wanted to test him, so he frowned, thought for a moment, and said: "My lord, the general thought that Zhuge Liang's actions seemed to be deceiving people."

Hua Yu asked with a slight smile: "Zi Ming can explain in detail, how does Zhuge Liang deceive people?"

"Here, my lord." Lu Meng responded, and began to analyze, "From the point of view of the general, the land of Huainan is already an impregnable wall."

"If Yuan Shu only defends but does not attack, even if Zhuge Liang has the wisdom of the sky, he will not be able to take Huainan."

"Unless Shu Shao dies, Yuan Shu continues to be stupid."

Hua Yu nodded secretly, with Shu Shao around, it was enough to protect Yuan Shu for a few more years, and he would definitely suffer heavy losses if he stormed Huainan.

"The three of Liu, Guan and Zhang have a deep hatred with the lord, so naturally Zhuge Liang will not attack Sun Ce."

"As for Cao Cao, he waited for work with leisure, and he had many elite soldiers under his command. Guo Jia and Cheng Yu were also conspiring. Zhuge Liang did not have full confidence in attacking Yanzhou."

"As for Yuan Shao and Gongsun Zan, if Liu Bei helps Gongsun Zan at this time, he may not get anything."

"If the final general is Liu Bei, we will definitely wait until Yuan Shao and Gongsun Zan are really hurt by both."

"As for Jiaozhou, I have heard from my lord that Zhuge Liang is a prudent man, so he will definitely not send troops south when Jiangdong is not fully attached."

"So..." Lu Meng shrugged his shoulders and spread his hands, "The general can only think that Zhuge Liang is trying to deceive people, and he just wants to create some tension, and has no real intention."

Hua Yu immediately burst out laughing after hearing this: "Okay, very good."

Seeing Hua Yu's smile, Lu Meng couldn't help becoming worried, and asked weakly, "My lord, could it be that the final analysis is wrong, please give me some pointers."

"No, no, on the contrary, it's very good." Hua Yu smiled and waved his hands, "I haven't seen you for three days, so I should look at you with admiration. The ancients never bullied Gu Ye."
