In Yizhou and Liu Zhang's official residence, important civil and military officials gathered together to study the matters of Xu Huang's army preparing to attack Hanzhong; this is also related to the safety of Yizhou; as long as Xu Huang's army conquered Hanzhong, Yizhou would face attacks from Lu Ning's army, everyone understands this.

Zhang Ren, the best general in Yizhou, said: "Lord, should we take this opportunity to send troops to attack Hanzhong? Even if we cannot conquer Hanzhong, it is good to occupy several important barriers. This is beneficial to the defense within our jurisdiction."

Liu Zhang said: "We fought with Zhang Lu for so many years, but we didn't get any results. We both sides lost their troops and generals; we did not gain any advantage, and Zhang Lu did not gain any benefits. To put it bluntly, it was all hard work to lose money."

Huang Quan said: "Lord, Xu Huang, the general under Lu Ning, led his troops to attack Hanzhong. If you don't have to consider the consequences, Zhang Lu would definitely not be able to defeat Xu Huang; but once Lu Ning is occupied, he may attack our Yizhou at any time, and this is not questionable."

Fa Zheng said: "There is one thing I have never understood. Why did Lu Ning attack Hanzhong? Why didn't he attack Yanzhou, Yuzhou and Qingzhou? These three states are bordered by Lu Ning's territory, so they should be the easiest to attack. They are easier to support the logistics. Why do they look far away? What does Lu Ning mean? There is also a base in Lu Ning in Lujiang, and it may also attack Jiangdong and Shouchun. But if you don't fight, you just want to attack Hanzhong. I really don't understand."

Wang Lei said: "I heard that Lu Ning and Cao Cao had a trade agreement, and the relationship between the two families was also very good. It is probably not convenient to send troops to attack Cao Cao! Also, there is an emperor in Xuchang and a court in the Han Dynasty. Lu Ning is afraid that he has some concerns."

Mr. Zhang shook his head and said, "Lu Ning never took the Han court seriously, nor took the emperor seriously; then the trade agreement was even more impossible to restrict Lu Ning's actions; this is not an excuse for Lu Ning not to attack Cao Cao, nor is it because Lu Ning was afraid of the court and the emperor, but Lu Ning had conspiracies, but we have not figured it out yet."

Fa Zheng said: "Lu Ning's army is now clearing out Liangzhou. If Zhao Yun eats Liangzhou, then the position of Hanzhong will be very important to Lu Ning's defense system. Does Lu Ning just want to conquer Hanzhong and have no intention of using troops to us?"

Huang Quan said: "There are also possible. If Lu Ning attacks our Yizhou, it is really better to take Yanzhou, Yuzhou and Qingzhou first and then consider other things. Lu Ning will never do such a thing, and it must have a purpose."

Liu Zhang said: "It means we don't have to worry about Xu Huang's army."

Zhang Song said: "My lord, you can't ignore it. You still need to strengthen your defense on the border line. What if Xu Huang sneaks into our dangerous barrier? Let's make more preparations just in case."

Huang Quan said: "Why don't Zhang Ren be allowed to guard Jianguan?"

Zhang Song said: "It's not just about having the Sword Pass intact. If possible, General Zhang Ren can be attacked by Xu Huang's army in Hanzhong and take down Jiameng Pass, so that we will have more dangerous passes."

Huang Quan agreed: "I do the same."

Fa Zhengdao: "My lord, we must also speed up the collection of information in the Hanzhong area, which is very important to us."

Liu Zhang said: "You have always been in charge of this matter, so don't ask me, just do it!"

Liu Zhang felt very tired as soon as he sat down. This was mainly because Liu Zhang, a kid, only soaked in the arms of a beautiful woman all day long. He was completely overly lustful and had to break his body. He still had the energy to deal with government affairs and military affairs.

In Runan City, Guo Jia and Tian Chou sent their subordinates to deliver thousands of newspapers and magazines to the city, and delivered a large number of them to inns and restaurants for free, and many of them posted on many walls. It was not originally a big town. With the distribution of thousands of newspapers and magazines, everyone in the city knew about Liu Bei’s heroic deeds, and people were talking about it.

Yang Yi, Wang Can and Cheng Bing are good friends. After joining Liu Bei, they did their best to handle government affairs for Liu Bei. The three of them have much better abilities than Liu Bei, and they are much stronger than Liu Bei's direct descendant Jian Yong, especially Wang Can, who is a person with real talent and knowledge.

But before Liu Bei's work for a few days, the three of them first discovered that there were newspapers and magazines published in Jinyang on the market, and they gave them for free. Yang Yi each asked for one. They usually spend money to buy this thing. It was really unexpected that such a good thing today.

After Yang Yi saw the publicity of Liu Bei in newspapers and magazines, he did not report to Liu Bei, but went to find Wang Can and Cheng Bing first. After reading it, the three of them smiled bitterly, and they all felt that they were deceived by Liu Bei's disguise. Yang Yi, Wang Can and Cheng Bing did not say hello to Liu Bei, packed up their things, and quietly left Runan City.

The ancient Confucian scholars looked at the character of the service owners very much. If they were not good, they would not be willing to come out even if they were idle at home. This was not enough to question. Moreover, over the past few days, the three of them had a certain understanding of Liu Bei's character, especially the three brothers lived and prostitution together. Although it was very secret, there was a wall that was not leaking; especially the personal guards around Liu Bei, of course they knew what the three brothers did tonight.

Liu Bei's new military advisor Shan Fu, after he recovered from his illness, has been busy helping Liu Bei to provide advice, analyzing the world situation for Liu Bei in detail and telling Liu Bei what to do. This is also to repay the kindness of saving others!

Liu Bei, a big-eared thief, was really. When he saw Shan Fu so well, he immediately hired him as a military advisor, but he also slept with Shan Fu every night and talked all night. This was a very good move in ancient times. Of course, if it was in modern times, no one would like this. Unless he was homosexual, who would have nothing to do with two big men sleeping in the same bed?

Liu Bei was talking to Shan Fu. When his brothers Guan Yu and Zhang Fei went out in the morning, they found that the streets were full of newspapers and magazines in the Luning Border Area circulated on the streets. The two brothers didn't know what they were, and they didn't read much. Although Zhang Fei had read books, he was not interested in reading at all, and Guan Yu probably didn't know one of them, so he wouldn't care about these things.

The situation is different today. Zhang Fei and Guan Yu brothers thought it was strange. Why were people on the street talking in a low voice? Zhang Fei got a few newspapers and magazines from the people next to him, and after a moment of reading, he cursed: "This is what that bastard made."

Guan Yu hurriedly asked, "Third brother, what's the matter?"

Zhang Fei briefly explained the various reports about Liu Bei in newspapers and magazines, and made Guan Yu so angry that he was furious and cursed. The second brother grabbed the newspapers and magazines on the street, hoping to recycle these things. After snatching them for a while, the second brother found that it was too slow, so he used his soldiers to go to the city to grab all the newspapers and magazines back.

This was even more fun. Out of curiosity, the soldiers asked what was written in the newspapers and magazines. Some literate soldiers read out the things in the newspapers and magazines and listened to everyone. This sound completely destroyed Liu Bei's image, and the soldiers also started to talk in a low voice.
