Three Kingdoms: Liu Daer Forced out of the Mountain at the Beginning

Not to mention that Cao Cao can be defeated, but there are back and forth fights, and it is not a problem to hold Jingzhou.

After completing the fortifications in Jingzhou, Sun Quan turned his attention to Jiaozhou.

Shi Xie of Jiaozhou was old and had no heirs, and the whole Jiaozhou fell into an embarrassing situation.

To say that Shi Xie is a prince is better to say that he is just a nobleman.

In today's world, Shi Xie is the weakest of the princes.

However, Sun Quan had no idea of ​​dealing with the state before.

After all, Jiaozhou is too close to the south, not to mention barren, and most of the south is barren.

But mosquito legs are also meat. Now that Cao Jun has no movement and no pressure, Sun Quan still chose to lead his army to take Jiaozhou.

Sure enough, after only three days of fighting, Shi Xie surrendered.

Veteran generals such as Gan Ning, Ling Tong, and Huang Gai fought bloody battles, but Jiaozhou's weak soldiers could not stop their devastating attack.

After Sun Quan took Jiaozhou, Liu Bei took over.

"Well, you Sun Zhongmou, you actually took this opportunity to take Jiaozhou as your own!"

Liu Bei punched the copybook, and was so angry that he couldn't speak.

I was in front of Cao Jun's pressure.

Some time ago, 20 Jiangdong troops came to Jingnan for assistance. Liu Bei was quite grateful at first.

As a result, Sun Quan actually took Jiaozhou directly.

This means that it is enough to let Liu Bei guard Jingzhou, and there is no need to expand the territory.

But Liu Bei is not without ambition.

How can just one Jingzhou be enough?

Although Jingzhou is rich, it is only one state and county after all. If you want to continue to expand its strength, you need to seize other states and counties.

Originally, Liu Bei wanted to attack Bashu, but Cao Cao took Bashu first.

Liu Bei's eyes were actually cast on Jiaozhou.

However, Sun Quan made a move!

Zhuge Liang on the side frowned slightly, and said in a deep voice:

"My lord, in my opinion, this matter may not be a bad thing for our army."

Hearing Zhuge Liang's words, Liu Bei was a little confused:

"Oh? Let's listen to what the military adviser said."

If someone else said this, Liu Bei would only be teasing himself, and he would definitely be furious.

But it was Zhuge Liang who said this, which made Liu Bei a little curious.

Jiaozhou was secretly taken by Sun Quan, what good would this do for him?

Zhuge Liang fanned the feather fan lightly without haste, and said with a smile:

"Jiaozhou is a barren land, and the south is mostly barbarians. Whether it is planting crops or developing other places, it is extremely useless."

"Even if our army wins it, it's just empty space, and it won't have any real effect."

"Now that Sun Quan has taken it, there is actually no loss for our army. Instead, it is sold to Sun Quan at a lower price."

"Otherwise, Sun Quan would not have sent 20 elite soldiers to help us garrison Jingnan."

"These 20 soldiers are like sending charcoal in a timely manner."

Liu Bei couldn't help but nodded slightly when he heard the words.

Hearing what Zhuge Liang said, it seems that such a thing is not bad.

Zhuge Liang continued:

"I would like to petition and go to Jiangdong to discuss with that Sun Quan."

"Although the area south of Jiaozhou does not belong to the Central Plains, if it can be taken down, it can be regarded as a way out."

"Cao Cao hasn't made any big moves yet, so I can't wait to die like this."

"At this time, we should develop some of these barbarian lands and continue to expand the territory."

"Tame these barbarians, but they are all future soldiers."

"If Sun Quan does not take Jiaozhou, this matter can only be handled by us."

"But now that Sun Quan is occupying Jiaozhou, he needs to handle this matter."

"No matter how long Sun Quan's hands are, he can't take all the barbarian lands. While they are expanding their territories, we can also send troops."

"If that's the case, at least I have something to do before Cao Cao takes action."

"It also gave our army a retreat."

Although what Zhuge Liang said was more euphemistic, Liu Bei also heard Zhuge Liang's implication.
