Chapter 11, Liu Bei: It’s all mine

Be prepared for danger in times of peace.

This has nothing to do with where the people are, but stems from the unique geographical location.

In fact, in addition to Bingzhou, Xiliang and Youzhou were also on the border of the Han Dynasty and faced threats from foreign races at all times.

In order to survive, they had to improve their skills and develop proficiency in bow and horse. Because of this environment, it was often easy to build a strong army.

Liu Guan and Zhang Ju nodded. The combat prowess of the frontier army's cavalry was obvious to all. Most of the Han Yulin troops were selected from the frontier army.

Zhang Fei asked doubtfully: "According to what Mr. Xiliang said, Xiliang and Youzhou are also important border towns. Why did Mr. choose Bingzhou?"

Guan Yu gently stroked his long beard and said with a smile: "Youzhou is remote and the situation in Xiliang is complicated. However, this merged state is the simplest and easiest to control."

After speaking, he looked at Guo Jia: "Sir, do you think Guan is right?"

He is familiar with the Spring and Autumn Period, and has his own opinions on the general situation and the art of war. Flooding the Seventh Army is an ingenious use of the art of war. Unless he is too arrogant and easily neglects to judge the situation due to emotion, he is also a good general.

"Yes." Guo Jia nodded and said with a smile, "But you still missed a little bit."

"Appreciate further details."

"Looking at the three states of Liang, Bing and You, Bingzhou is the place closest to the Central Plains."

Although it is possible to develop steadily away from the Central Plains, it is also easy to become complacent. At critical moments, it will be out of reach to intervene in the disputes in the Central Plains.

Guo Jia did not want Liu Bei to live in a corner as in the original history. This was equivalent to slow death. The political and cultural focus of this era was still north of the Yangtze River.

Guan Yu pondered for a moment and quickly understood the meaning of his words. He cupped his hands and said, "I have learned a lesson."

He had initially recognized Guo Jia's talent in his heart, but his analysis of the situation was not enough to completely convince him.

"Okay, then let's follow what Fengxiao said and choose Bingzhou as the base."

Liu Bei is not good at using troops, especially when facing his old enemy Cao Cao, he will basically be completely defeated. However, he also has one advantage, that is, he is open-minded and obeys the advice of those he believes are capable. This is also the key to his rapid rise after receiving the assistance of Zhuge Liang.

(Except for the crusade against Jiangdong. After all, "Don't be arrogant in victory and don't be discouraged in defeat" is a simple saying, but few people can actually do it.)

Now he chose to trust Guo Jia, and the other party's point of view was recognized by him, so he nodded decisively.

Bingzhou Wolf Rider?

Liu Bei muttered to himself, and a certain invincible figure could not help but appear in his mind.

Lu Fengxian.

The two had a history of falling in love and killing each other. He had personal experience of the combat power of the Bingzhou Army. It was a powerful cavalry that was not weaker than the Xiliang cavalry and the white horse Yi Cong.

"My lord, what's going on?" Guo Jia couldn't help but call out when he saw Liu Bei was in a daze.

Liu Bei came out of his thoughts and said with a smile: "Nothing, I was just thinking that Bingzhou is located on the border, so countless heroes will be born."

Although he had never read any stories about time travel and rebirth, he quickly discovered the key to this advantage, which was that he knew many things in advance before others.

For example...where are the talents?

In addition to counselors, he also coveted powerful generals produced in other places.

Needless to say, Zilong, with his sharp tongue, he will be one of our own sooner or later.

In addition, he plans to continue to pry Cao Cao's corner.

Although the generals under Cao Aguo were not as powerful as his Five Tiger generals, they were not bad at all in arranging troops and formations.

If I remember correctly, Zhang Wenyuan was from Bingzhou.

Well, there is also Gao Shun, whose combat power in the fallen camp is the best in the world.

There are also Huang Zhong from Jingzhou, Xu Huang from Hedong, Zhang He from Hebei... Liu Bei is also concerned about Yuan Shao, and he wishes he could take all the famous generals of the known era under his command.

As I thought about it, my heart suddenly became hot.

"Lord~"

Guo Jia looked at Liu Bei who was wandering around again, feeling a little speechless. Is this a common problem with rebirth?

I don’t know what bad idea I’m planning!

Guan Yu and Zhang Fei were also looking at him, thinking: His eldest brother wouldn't be thinking about someone's widow as much as his husband, would he?

This is really an injustice to Liu Bei. He only has ambitions in his heart and does not care much about women. Otherwise, he would not have said: brothers are like brothers and sisters, women are like clothes.

Cough~

Liu Bei put away his thoughts again and said seriously: "I'm thinking about how we should take our current path."

It was inconvenient to reveal his rebirth, and he couldn't share the joy in his heart. He couldn't help but feel a little lonely.

Guo Jia said: "Wait."

wait?

Zhang Fei looked puzzled.

"Let's just wait and see?"

In his opinion, we should immediately recruit troops and buy horses to deal with the subsequent turmoil.

Guo Jia smiled and said: "Of course I'm not just waiting. Next, I hope that my lord, Yun Chang, and Yide will find ways to make a name for themselves in Yingchuan. It's best to let everyone know that you are superb in martial arts and that you will be the bravest of the three armies."

After Liu Bei was briefly stunned, he quickly understood.

"I understand, sir, you want to borrow troops!"

His original plan was to recruit troops, which is what they did in the previous life. However, with the capital of the three brothers, they could only support a few hundred people at most, and they couldn't even provide enough equipment.

Coupled with limited time, it is difficult to train brave and capable elites.

As for Guo Jia's idea, he wanted the three brothers to take advantage of these few months to become famous. When Taiping Dao launched a rebellion and people were panicked, he would then use his status as a descendant of an aristocratic family to gain the opportunity to lead the army.

Liu Bei was once again glad that he came to Yingchuan. His perspective on the problem was indeed not as comprehensive as those of these conspirators.

Guo Jia smiled slightly.

"Bandits have been rampant in Yingchuan recently. Jiayi asked the county governor for orders to send troops to suppress the bandits."

Zhang Fei clapped his fist fiercely and said with excitement: "Finally, we have a battle. Sir, I have an appetite for Zhang Fei."

"I just hope that Yide will not disappoint me." Guo Jia still adheres to the principle of "knowing nothing", pretending not to know the strength of Guan and Zhang.

"Hey! Sir, just watch and see how our three brothers catch all these little thieves."

"Then I'll wait and see."

Although Guan Yu did not speak, his hand had quietly grasped the hilt of the sword.

Like Zhang Fei, he was looking forward to the next battle, even if the opponent was just some insignificant bandits.

It's just that he is not good at words and rarely expresses his thoughts.

"Fengxiao is going to suppress the bandits?" Su Meiniang happened to be walking in with wine and food, and she couldn't help being surprised when she heard this.

My husband has small arms and legs. He can bully a weak woman like her, but who is the match for those tough gangsters?

Hearing this, Zhang Fei immediately patted his chest and promised: "Don't worry, brothers and sisters, as long as I, Zhang Fei, are here, those little thieves can't get close to me."
