After hearing Zhuge Liang's words, Mi Zhu couldn't help but attend and said, "Will the military advisor be too alarmist? Lu Bu had just been defeated by various princes for a few years, and now he dared to attack Jingzhou by the world? Isn't he afraid that all the princes will jointly attack him again?"

"Besides, Lu Bu is just a place in the four counties in Jiangdong, far less than my Jingzhou. What ability does he have to sneak attack my Jingzhou? The military advisor's words are afraid that they can't convince the public!"

Mi Zhu is the elder brother of Liu Bei’s wife, Mrs. Mi, and Liu Bei’s brother-in-law.

Liu Bei was able to make a fortune and received great help from Mi Zhu.

The Mi family was one of the four major commercial families in the Eastern Han Dynasty. If it weren’t for Mi Zhu’s strong support, Liu Bei would not have been today.

Mi Zhu himself is talented and is highly valued by Liu Bei.

Before Zhuge Liang came, Mi Zhu was always the leader of the civil servants under Liu Bei.

But after Zhuge Liang arrived, Mi Zhu ranked second.

Therefore, Mi Zhu was very dissatisfied with Zhuge Liang.

After hearing Zhuge Liang's argument, Mi Zhu couldn't help but refute.

...

Mi Zhu's views actually represent the views of most people under Liu Bei's seat.

In their opinion, Lu Buzhi owns only four counties in Jiangdong, so what should he use to attack Jingzhou?

Well, okay, Lu Bu actually owns Jiaozhou, but in their opinion, is there a big difference between the desolate land of Jiaozhou and not?

After Mi Zhu refuted, Zhuge Liang stood up, gently shook the feather fan in his hand and said, "Lu Bu, a hero in the world, should not be underestimated! Although there are only four counties in Jiangdong, they still have Jiaozhou and Yizhou."

"For three years, Jiangdong has been in good condition and business has developed rapidly. Jiangdong's strength cannot be underestimated. If all this is Jiangdong's conspiracy, Jiangdong launches a surprise attack on Jingzhou and we do not take it seriously, then we will definitely suffer a great loss. We may even lose the entire Jingzhou!"

"Hahahahahahaha! It's so funny!"

Jian Yong laughed and stood up from the table, laughing so hard that he almost fell off his hat.

"According to the military advisor's words, Jiangdong has been developing in the past three years. Can't our Jingzhou and Yizhou have been regressing? Yizhou's land is fertile, and the country of Tianfu is not as good as the development of the four counties in Jiangdong?"

Well, in the eyes of the people at that time, this was indeed the case.

One of the lands with large output was Yizhou and the other was Jizhou. As for Jiangdong, it was still a lot short of it at that time.

As for the saying that Suhu is familiar with the world and Huguang is mature, it is all about improving varieties and farming methods, and it must be postponed for a long time.

If Jiangdong has developed faster than Yizhou in the past three years, the places outside Jiangdong can't help but laugh.

Well, this is actually caused by the asymmetry of news in this era.

There is little known about the outside world to have a bumper harvest of three new crops in Jiangdong, and a series of measures such as improving grain and food species in Jiangdong, improving farming methods, and improving water conservancy projects.

First of all, it is because neither Liu Bei, Cao Cao nor Yuan Shu pay attention to this kind of intelligence work.

In addition, Jiangdong intends to block the news, so the outside world knows more about Jiangdong.

...

After hearing Jian Yong's rebuttal, Zhuge Liang frowned slightly and said, "I have sought learning in Jiangdong and have some understanding of the situation in Jiangdong. I have to say that Jiangdong's development is indeed much faster than ours!"

"And Lu Bu's reputation is spread throughout the world. Something under his command is like a cloud of powerful generals like rain, and his combat power is as powerful as the world! If Lu Bu really wants to be unfavorable to Jingzhou and if we are not prepared, Jingzhou will be in danger!"

Zhuge Liang studied in Shanghai County and personally learned about the people's livelihood and development in Shanghai County.

Therefore, Zhuge Liang has the most say in the development speed of Shanghai County.

The development of Jiangdong can be said to be unmatched by the entire Han Dynasty.

Zhuge Liang was telling the truth, but this was too heartbreaking.

Not to mention other strategists and generals, even Liu Bei frowned slightly when he heard this.

Sun Gan attended the meeting in anger and said, "Why didn't the military advisor follow Lu Bu so much? Since Lu Bu is so powerful, his combat power is so powerful and his reputation of benevolence and righteousness spread all over the world, wouldn't it be better if we surrender directly?"

After hearing Sun Gan's words, Zhuge Liang couldn't help but change his color.

...

Mi Zhu, Jian Yong and Sun Gan were the three major strategists who started Liu Bei.

Liu Bei, who was deeply in power, was the old man who had followed Liu Bei for the longest time.

But now when Zhuge Liang, a young man who had not even grown all his hair, Liu Bei immediately put Zhuge Liang on their heads.

Although the facts proved that this young man did have certain talents, these three people still couldn't swallow the breath in their hearts.

Therefore, as long as Zhuge Liang was caught, these three people would not hesitate to fight Zhuge Liang to death.

In fact, the main reason for this situation is that after Zhuge Liang defected to Liu Bei, he did not encounter such a miserable situation in the original historical trajectory of being chased by Cao Cao.

In the original historical trajectory, Zhuge Liang was invited at Liu Bei's most difficult time.

At that time, these three strategists were helpless, and it was Zhuge Liang who turned the tide and led them out of the predicament.

Therefore, these three people were quite convinced by Zhuge Liang.

But now, these things have not happened.

Although Zhuge Liang performed brilliantly when he captured Yizhou, it was not enough to convince the three of them.

What's more, Zhuge Liang's admiration for Lu Bu just now was just to tell the truth. But it inevitably changed the taste in the ears of others.

Oh, what do you mean by admiring Lu Bu so much?

Do you want to join him or what?

Not to mention others, even Liu Bei felt uncomfortable when he heard this.

...

With Zhuge Liang's intelligence, he had already realized this at this time and couldn't help but sigh in secret.

These people will only rebel when things happen. How can they succeed?

Although the lord is a relative of the Han Dynasty and a kind man, he is not in a good position after all!

And I'm afraid I've already made a taboo when I said it more and more wrong, so I'd better take time to talk to my lord alone.

Thinking of this, Zhuge Liang couldn't help but return to his seat and sit down, stop talking.

Mi Zhu, Jian Yong and Sun Gan encountered the best opportunity to bring Zhuge Liang down. The three of them were overjoyed and took turns to fight Zhuge Liang in a row.

Liu Bei slapped the table and said, "Okay, don't say anything more!"

After Liu Bei made a statement, Mi Zhu, Jian Yong and Sun Gan stopped.

Liu Bei stood up and said, "Lu Bu, the heroes of the world! The military advisor is reasonable and you must be careful! I believe in the military advisor, just like everyone here. Don't talk about this matter again!"

"Now, let's discuss how to quell the rebellion of the Southern Barbarian Menghuo! I wonder if you have any good plans?"

If Meng Huo is calmed down, it is actually not difficult. The difficulty is how to end it after calming down.

After some discussion, all the details were finally finalized.
