What's more, at this time, he, Cao Cao and Liu Bei were in trouble.

He was completely trapped between Xishu and Jingzhou.

Wang Lang bowed and said:"Master Zhang understands the righteousness well and the request he made is quite reasonable.""

"This time, Duke Cao has already sent an envoy to contact Lord Xuande."

"Good news will come soon"

"My mission has been accomplished. Sir Zhang, please excuse me."

"When there is definite news from Mr. Xuande, I will visit Mr. Zhang again next time.

Zhang Lu smiled and said,"Okay, I'll wait for Lord Jingxing in Hanzhong!""

Wang Lang took a few steps back, bowed to Zhang Lu again, and then turned and went out.

At this time, Zhang Lu said to Yan Pu:"Zimao, I can't trust Cao Cao. I'm afraid this alliance won't be that simple. Yan

Pu said with a smile:"There are indeed many problems in this alliance, so I just said this to stabilize Cao Cao.""

"According to the current situation, any of the three forces including us, Cao Cao and Liu Bei"

"It is difficult to conquer Xishu or Jingzhou alone"

"And even if the force is as powerful as Liu Bei, if you want to attack Liu Zhang or Liu Biao alone,"

"We all need to worry about sneak attacks from behind by our side and Cao Cao."

"Therefore, the only way for us is to form an alliance and work together"

"After conquering Xishu or Jingzhou, the territory will be divided into three"

"But the biggest problem now is that no one of us trusts the other and we are on guard against each other."

"I'm afraid it won't be easy to achieve an alliance"

"But this opportunity is rare. Once an alliance is formed, it will definitely be an opportunity for me and the other three companies to go further."

"Therefore, it depends on how Liu Bei and Mr. Wolong respond to this matter."

After Zhang Lu heard this, he also nodded.

He added:"If the alliance can be successful, I will definitely break Chengdu."

"Cut off Liu Zhang's head and avenge me with blood!"

So everyone retreated.

Yan Pu and others bowed, turned and left the prefect's mansion.

On the other side, in Bajun City.

Cheng Yu also brought Cao Cao's letter to the prefect's mansion.

Liu Bei immediately entertained him warmly..

Arranged a banquet and invited Zhuge Liang to accompany him.

At this time, Guan Yu was presiding over important events in Badong County.

Zhang Fei was also patrolling the river.

He did not come.

After three drinks,

Zhuge Liang shook his feather fan lightly, looked at Cheng Yu with a smile and said:" I wonder why Brother Zhongde came here? Cheng Yu smiled, cupped his hands and said,"I came here this time to convey Master Cao's intention.""

Liu Bei was a little interested and sat up a little straighter.

As he spoke, Cheng Yu took out the letter from his arms and asked his attendant to hand it to Liu Bei.

After Liu Bei took out the letter written by Cao Cao and read it, he handed it to Zhuge Liang.

Zhuge Liang squinted his eyes and smiled.

He waved his hand and said,"It doesn't matter if you don't look at it. I already understand what Mr. Cao means. Cheng

Yu quickly raised his hands and said,"Mr. Zhuge was truly unparalleled in his wisdom at that time. He could even guess what Duke Cao meant.""

Seeing that Zhuge Liang was so confident, Liu Bei felt at ease.

After all, the letter stated that Cao Cao intended to develop Liu Bei and Zhang Lu as allies to attack Western Shu together.

This made Liu Bei quite embarrassed.

After all, Liu Zhang had just given Territory.

He also supported himself with a lot of heavy supplies, soldiers, horses and ships.

It had only been more than two months, and he was trying to seize other people's territory. This matter felt quite inappropriate.

So he looked at Zhuge Liang a little hesitantly. Zhuge Liang took a bite and said calmly:"I wonder if Mr. Zhang Lu has any intention to form an alliance?"

Cheng Yu was shocked. Zhuge Liang really lived up to his reputation.

Before he read the letter, he already knew the plan he dedicated to Cao Cao.

At that moment, he didn't dare to make too much claims, for fear that Zhuge Liang would see through and despise him.

So he put his thoughts together. Tell it.

Liu Bei listened to Cheng Yu's explanation and understood it in his heart. He felt that it seemed to be the same.

But at this moment, Zhuge Liang said:"Zhongde's words are this."

"However, my lord is different from Cao Gong and has two other options.

Cheng Yu quickly bowed his hands and said,"Please give me Mr. Zhuge's advice.""

Zhuge Liang shook his feather fan habitually, looked at Cheng Yu and said:"These two options are better than uniting Cao Gong and Zhang Lu."

"It would be more cost-effective to go and attack Lord Liu Zhang."

Liu Bei had not listened to Zhuge Liang's analysis of this matter before.

In the past two months, his focus had been on the development of Ba County and Badong County.

When he heard Zhuge Liang talk about his subsequent development path, he quickly sat up straight. Come on, listen carefully.

Prepare to hear more useful content from Zhuge Liang’s words.

Zhuge Liang continued to speak in a leisurely manner.

"The first option is that we don’t have to form an alliance with Cao Gong and others. We must attack Lord Liu Zhang."

"After all, Lord Liu Zhang had just allocated territory to my lord and rewarded him with various resources and troops."

"At this time, if we are allowed to counterattack Master Liu Zhang, we will be despised by everyone in the world."

When Cheng Yu heard this, he was so anxious that he was sweating a little.

Just when he was about to explain, he saw Zhuge Liang stretched out his hand to stop him from speaking.
