"For the sake of the safety of Jingzhou, the general implores my lord to immediately send someone to take back Liu Bei's military power and call him back to Jingzhou. If he agrees, he is naturally innocent. If he opposes, he must have the intention of treason."

Cai Mao immediately stood up and shouted forcefully.

"This..." Liu Biao hesitated for a moment.

And all the civil and military people in the hall were talking a lot at the moment, nodding in approval from time to time, obviously because they were afraid of Liu Bei's rebellion, after all, Liu Bei had tens of thousands of troops at the moment.

"My lord, even though that's the case, could this be the fake news that Chu Feng released to deliberately get us to withdraw Liu Bei? After all, only Liu Bei can face the Chu army right now."

Kuai Liang quickly interjected.

Naturally, he didn't want the Cai family to take back the military power, but the family headed by Kuai Liang also expressed their views one after another.

Liu Biao pondered for a while, and said solemnly: "In this way, letting Wenpin and Cai He go to take Liu Bei's position is to say that it is to clean up the dust for Liu Bei."

"If Chu Feng commits another crime, it won't be too late to ask Liu Bei to suppress it. But joining him is rebellious, and he will definitely not agree. I will make him pay the price when the time comes!"

Liu Biao hesitated a little, obviously thinking of a compromise.

"My lord is wise!" Everyone clasped their fists together to compliment.

"Okay, let's do it like this. In addition, arrange scouts to keep an eye on the movement of the Chu army at all times. Once there is news, it must be reported immediately, and there must be no mistakes!"

Liu Biao flicked his sleeves and said.

After finishing all these, this discussion is nothing, and what followed were letters one after another, some of which were sent to Jiangling.

----

Two days later, Jiangling was in charge of the general's residence.

Liu Bei, Guan Yu, Xu Shu, Liao Hua and others are discussing how to consolidate Jiangling.

"Report~! My lord, someone from Xiangyang came here to summon the general to Jingzhou under the order of Liuzhou Mu, and said that we will meet each other on important matters." Yajiang said, running wildly.

"Why did Liu Biao send someone here at this time?" Liu Bei frowned, feeling a bad premonition.

"My lord, I'm afraid the visitor is not kind!" Xu Shu narrowed his eyes and said helplessly.

"What do you mean by that?"

"The master has always been dangerous. The Chu army is unstoppable, and the master's beheading alone has as many as 7000 to [-] people. It can be said that the battle has been fruitful."

"Now the lord can accommodate another 5 fine armors, a total of [-] to [-] people, even far surpassing Jing Xiang's troops. I'm afraid Liu Biao can hardly sleep or eat at this moment."

Xu Shu called the names directly and sighed.

"Great master?" Liu Bei frowned, but his heart was dignified. What Xu Shu said was indeed true. How could Liu Biao feel at ease when he had 5 or [-] people under his command.

To put it bluntly, Jiangling needs food and supplies, and supplies and supplies. Liu Bei can even become king on his own right now and take Jingzhou directly.

"Military Master, what should we do now?" Liu Bei frowned and looked at Xu Shu. He yearned for power more than anyone else. Now that he has the power, should he just let it go?

"What does my lord mean?" Xu Shu asked.

"It's hard to pull up such an army that can compete with Chu Feng. If I give up at this time, I will be unwilling." Liu Bei said in a deep voice.

"My lord, since Liu Biao has doubted it, then my lord has only three options.

First, return to Jing to prove identity and loyalty.

Second, on the pretext that the remnants of the Chu army still exist and that they want to destroy Zhang Xian, the lord led his troops to the south.

Third, establish yourself as a king. "When Xu Shu said that he became king, his expression was obviously a little excited, and his gaze towards Liu Bei became firm and longing.

Liu Bei is a clan member of the Han family, and he can't go wrong with establishing himself as king, and he will definitely welcome countless people to follow him.

"No, I claim to stand on the world with benevolence, virtue and faith, and now that Liu Biao has reused me, how can I stand on my own as a king and betray Liu Biao?"

Liu Bei looked sad, with a bit of anxiety.

He knew that what Xu Shu said was right, now was a good time to establish himself as a king, and he directly led his troops to the north, and even took Xiangyang in one fell swoop.

But he prides himself on being righteous and righteous, and doesn't bother to do such nonsense, but he is really not reconciled, can he just be taken back?

"My lord, Jingzhou is right in front of me. It is the last chance to become king. If my lord agrees to return to Jingzhou, even if I don't die, I will be dazzled by the wine and sex."

Xu Shu had some hopes and asked Liu Bei to agree.

"Brother, what the military advisor said is right. Those who do big things should not stick to small things. If you waste this opportunity because of trivial matters, it is really not worth the candle."

Guan Yu is also persuading, with anticipation.

"My lord, it is the best time to establish yourself as a king and take over the entire Jingzhou." Liao Hua also continued the conversation, and all the civil and military officials persuaded him.

"No, no one can stand without trust! I can't betray others for personal gain." Liu Bei hesitated, and it was best to reject the request with a wave of his sleeves.

"My lord, since you've made up your mind, I won't ask for it." Xu Shu cupped his hands and said in a blink of an eye, "But since my lord was ordered to go to Jingnan, how can Zhang Xian return?"

"My lord, the overall situation should be the top priority. As the saying goes, generals abroad will not accept military orders. This time, taking advantage of Zhang Xian's unawareness, he crushed Zhang Xian in one fell swoop and took control of Jingnan."

Xu Shu guessed that Liu Bei would refuse, so he had already thought of another set of rhetoric.

At that time, Liu Bei will have to rebel if he doesn't rebel.

"That's what Yuan Zhi said is right. Zhang Xian in Jingnan is eyeing him covetously. You can't stay for long, you should break it." Liu Bei nodded: "Well, send someone to tell me that I have led my troops to fight against Zhang Xian."

"My lord is wise." Xu Shu chuckled.

This is equivalent to finding a reason for Liu Bei to stay, and Xu Shu can see that Liu Bei doesn't want to delegate power at all, and he wants to build a foundation from the bottom of his heart.

It can only be said that Liu Bei has found a way to come down. As for Liu Biao's further pressure, it is Liu Biao's problem, and he will not have to show mercy when the time comes.

Thinking of this, he sneered.

But Liu Biao's envoy was extremely annoyed because of Liu Bei's negligence and pretended to fight Zhang Xian, so he hurried back to talk to Liu Biao.
