Pang Tong looked at Zhuge Liang with a gloomy expression.
Zhuge Liang anxiously looked at Liu Bei and continued:
"Milord, don't forget. Although the Jiangdong Navy has a lot of people, it is still a navy!"
"In the Yangtze River battle, the Jiangdong Army was able to make up for their lack of numbers and deal with the Cao Army."
"But if we want to deal with the Cao Army, it will be even more difficult! How can the navy fight against the Cao Army's cavalry? Moreover, they have the Ferocious Cavalry! "
The Ministers didn't dare to speak and only listened to Wolong and Young Feng's argument.
Although he had a good relationship with Pang Tong, Zhuge Liang would definitely not agree with Pang Tong's point of view.
At this moment, Pang Tong was blinded by his hatred for Cao Cao and Bai Feng.
If they really did as Pang Tong said and used the entire army to fight against the Cao Army, they would definitely die.
Jingzhou, which they had taken down with great difficulty, would be reduced to nothing because of this!
The two continued to argue and Liu Bei's expression became uglier and uglier.
In reality, Liu Bei didn't want to go against Cao Cao right now.
Liu Bei wasn't stupid. He wouldn't do something like using an egg to hit a rock.
This time, Liu Bei brought up an idea to listen to the Ministers' opinions and make a decision.
However, Wolong and Young Phoenix, who were his advisors, had a disagreement because of this and each had their own opinions.
This made Liu Bei feel even more troubled.
"Two Sirs, please stop."
Liu Bei rubbed his forehead and said:
"Right now, we can't make a decision. Why don't we contact Jiangdong first and see what Jiangdong thinks about this."
"After we reach a consensus, whether it is attacking or defending, we will have more confidence."
Hearing this, the two of them fell silent.
Liu Bei was giving the two of them a way out. He was also giving himself a way out.
The two of them were smart and went with the flow.
All the problems were pushed to Sun Quan and Lu Su.
What did Cao Cao's proclamation mean?
It meant that he was determined to conquer the world and unify the world!
In other words, Cao Cao's next move would be to attack the dukes who hadn't made a move yet.
One by one, one.
Since that was the case, the best method was to form an alliance.
…
Other than Liu Bei and Sun Quan, two other dukes who had their own territories.
One was Liu Zhang from Xichuan.
The other was Zhang Lu from Hanzhong.
…
At Xichuan:
"My lord, that Cao Cao announced himself as king to the world. He is already disregarding the Emperor!"
"Zhang, Zhang, Zhang's Zhang's,'s Zhang is Wang's Zhang's?
Zhang Song, Liu Zhang's strategist, advised.
Fa Zheng who was at the side quickly followed up.
"Liu Bei, this one believes that we should join forces with the messengers sent by Liu Bei, Sun Quan, and Zhang Lu to prepare for the enemy!"
However, Liu Zhang was eating grapes while listening to their advice. He waved his hand and said, "Don't worry.
"Xichuan is not as fertile as Liu Bei's Jingzhou or Jiangdong, and the terrain is not as flat as Hanzhong. With the southern barbarians nearby, Cao Cao will definitely not attack Xichuan."
"I understand your intentions. Let's discuss this matter later."
The Ministers couldn't help but sigh at Liu Zhang's words.
Fa Zheng and Zhang Song's faces were extremely ugly.
…
Hanzhong:
Zhang Lu's strategist, Yan Pu, looked at Zhang Lu with a dangerous expression.
"Liu Bei!"
"Cao Cao intends to conquer the world. We are the closest to Cao Cao, so we are in the most danger. We should be extremely cautious. If we really can't, the best plan is to join forces with the other Vassals!"
Zhang Lu frowned and said in a low voice,
"Teacher's words are reasonable. Although I have many believers and brave generals, the Cao Army is ferocious. We need to be prepared."
"Pass down my order. Send out more spies to check on Cao Cao's movements!"
… …
Compared to the other Vassals, Xuchang was incomparably peaceful.
Bai Feng slowly opened his eyes and stretched.
It had been a long time since he had slept so soundly.
But although Xuchang looked peaceful, there was not a single person on the streets.
When Bai Feng had led his troops to raid homes and capture people, not only were the landowning households afraid, the common people of Xuchang were also terrified.
Even now, the common people still closed their doors, not daring to show their faces.
Not to mention the nearly twenty thousand people killed in the Wei River.
The system had yet to issue a new main quest or side quest.
Right now, what Bai Feng was thinking about was how to proceed in the future.
The Cao Army had been biding its time in Xuchang and the surrounding cities.
But in reality, the other Vassals were already pale at the mention of Cao Cao. It was very likely that they would band together to resist.
Bai Feng did some simple calculations. Although there weren't many Vassals left, they still couldn't be underestimated.
Bai Feng had two paths to take.
The first was naturally to take the initiative to find Boss Cao and have his troops go on a punitive expedition.
Whether it was Liu Bei or Sun Quan, they were both extremely dangerous. As for Zhang Lu, Liu Zhang, Gongsun Zan, and the others, they didn't have many generals or strategists under them. They also didn't have much ambition, so it would be easier to deal with them.
However, ever since Boss Cao was assassinated, his personality had changed greatly. Although he still trusted Bai Feng, it was hard to say whether or not he would agree to Bai Feng going on an expedition.
Although Bai Feng had five thousand soldiers, and a thousand of them had been strengthened by Bai Feng, this amount of soldiers wasn't enough for continuous expeditions.
It had to be known that no matter how useless or weak these Vassals were, they still had hundreds of thousands of soldiers.
Strengthened soldiers couldn't be reborn. Bai Feng would feel a bit of heartache if one of them died.
Moreover, no matter how much he fought, he was still working for Boss Cao. Boss Cao didn't say anything, so why should Bai Feng worry about him?
The second path was to do whatever he wanted and live a carefree life in Xuchang.
Bai Feng was an extremely casual person and didn't like restrictions. This was actually a good thing. Once the system released a new quest, he would think of a way out.
As for Liu Bei and Sun Quan, their goal was Boss Cao, not Bai Feng.
… …
Time flew by quickly. Xu Chang, which was originally a pile of rubble, gradually regained its former prosperity.
Time was like a butcher's knife, cutting away people's fears.
The past was the past, but life still had to go on. Even if one could endure it mentally, their empty wallets wouldn't be able to endure it.
Soon, the largest market after Xuchang's reconstruction was about to begin.
At this moment, outside Xuchang City, a woman wearing a black veil was running towards Xuchang.
This woman's face was extremely ugly, and her expression was extremely cold. She looked like she didn't want anyone to get close to her.
