"Ziyu, you actually laid out so many chess pieces in advance?"

Liu Bei had an incredible surprise on his face.

Deng Mu smiled and laughed at himself:

"Mu has been dormant in Jingzhou for these years, and he didn't just lie around and lay waste. He didn't make arrangements for his lord in advance. Wouldn't it be a waste of time? Liu

Bei suddenly understood and sighed in admiration:

"The foresight and foresight of a military strategist is truly rare in the world. Even if Zhang Liang is resurrected, I am afraid he will not be able to match it."

The topic changed, but he said blankly:"It's just lying flat and rotten. Forgive me for being stupid, what does it mean?"

"Ahem, that's not important. Deng

Mu coughed a few times and said:

"What the Lord has to do now is to return to Wancheng with his troops so that Liu Biao can breathe a sigh of relief."

"In this way, Mu had the opportunity to secretly make plans for the next attack on Fancheng."

Liu Bei learned about Deng Mu's plan, and all the clouds on his face cleared. He immediately ordered to send troops to Wancheng soon.

Zhang Fei, Wenpin and other generals were confused.

"Brother, what are the military advisors telling you? You tell us, otherwise I will choke to death! Zhang

Fei asked anxiously, scratching his head and ears.

Liu Bei smiled mysteriously:"The secret must not be leaked. Just wait patiently. Soon you will know the military adviser's clever plan." Seeing that Liu

Bei refused to reveal it, Zhang Fei had no choice but to act impatiently.

Wenpin was also full of confusion and couldn't figure out what clever plan this young military advisor had to defeat Fancheng.

He could also conjure up things for Liu Bei out of thin air. Navy warship?

"Zhongye, just relax."

"Military Master Ziyu is scheming. You and I just believe what he says."

"In just a few days, you will see how powerful he is."

Zhang Liao patted Wenpin on the shoulder and comforted him.

After all, he had joined the gang earlier than Wenpin, and he had long been convinced of Deng Mu's methods.

Wenpin had to suppress his curiosity.

Three days later,

Liu Bei left Zhang Fei and Wenpin to lead five Thousands of soldiers and horses guarded Xinye.

Liu Bei himself led the main force and returned north to Wancheng.

In just a few months, he first killed Zhang Ji's uncle and nephew, and then defeated Liu Biao, and captured Xinye in one fell swoop.

These extraordinary achievements were reported back to Wancheng, All the people in the city were shocked.

Liu Bei's prestige in the hearts of the people in Wancheng and even Nanyang has skyrocketed in an instant.

Therefore, when Liu Bei returned home in triumph, the people in Wancheng spontaneously took to the streets to greet the return of Liu Bei's army.

"Ziyu's teachings are indeed true"

"If you want to bring all the people back, benevolence alone is not enough, you must also have enough martial virtues"

"The people look forward to a benevolent lord, and even more to a heroic lord who can protect them..."

Looking at the people bowing down and cheering on the left and right, Liu Bei recalled what Deng Mu had taught him, and his state of mind quietly reached a new level.

The first thing to do when entering the city. The first thing is to reward the meritorious soldiers.

The second thing is to reorganize the newly surrendered soldiers and expand the military strength.

In the battle of Bowangpo, nearly 10,000 Jingzhou surrendered soldiers were captured. These were all well-equipped and formally trained veterans..

The real combat effectiveness of these soldiers is far better than that of the soldiers of the Yellow Turbans of Runan. Moreover, more than half of the more than 10,000 people are soldiers of Nanyang origin such as Xinye.

Now that the entire county of Nanyang has been owned by Liu Bei, these Nanyang origins Soldiers can naturally be incorporated into the army without any worries.

So in just one month, Liu Bei's army expanded to about 30,000 people.

The third thing was to celebrate the birthday of his wife Xu.

This The matter was originally a private matter, and Lao Liu didn't want to be extravagant and wasteful. He just wanted to celebrate a little.

But at Deng Mu's suggestion, Lao Liu decided to make a big splash and hold a lively birthday banquet for Mrs. Xu.

1 The Xu family has suffered so much with Lao Liu and almost died in Xuzhou. It is not easy to finally live a stable life for a few days.

Holding a big birthday banquet can be regarded as a way for Lao Liu to make up for the Xu family.

Secondly, Deng Mu wanted to use this birthday congratulation to paralyze Liu Biao.

He wanted Liu Biao's officials to mistakenly think that Liu Biao was content with his wife and children, living a small life behind closed doors, and had no time to go south again. Capture Fancheng.

So a grand birthday banquet was held in the Wancheng Prefecture.

The military officers and civil servants in Wancheng, as well as the celebrities and powerful people in Nanyang, came to celebrate Xu's birthday with generous gifts.

This birthday banquet The lively atmosphere also indirectly showed the attachment of the people of Nanyang to Liu Bei.

As the protagonist of this birthday banquet, Mrs. Xu naturally had a red face, and the smile never stopped on her face. In the outer hall, Liu Bei held up his wine glass and talked with all the guests and ministers Drinking and talking happily.

In the inner hall, Mrs. Xu was sitting on the throne, accepting guests who came to present gifts and birthday wishes in turn.

"Congratulations to Madam Mu, congratulations to Madam"

"Please accept this small gift, Madam."

Deng Mu cupped his hands in congratulations and presented a box of Shu brocade to

"Ziyu, hurry up and get free of charge!"

Mrs. Xu smiled and waved her hands, and hurriedly ordered Deng Mu to be seated nearby.

Looking at this savior and her husband's military advisor, Mrs. Xu was filled with gratitude.

"Ziyu, if you hadn't come to save me, I would have died at Lu Bu's hands."

"Without your help, how could your husband have turned around and be as strong as he is now?"

"You are the benefactor of our couple, I toast you!"

Mrs. Xu expressed her heartfelt words of gratitude and raised a toast to each other.

"Madam, you are serious!"

"The Lord has shown kindness to Mu, and Mu should repay it with his whole life."

"Mu and the lord are mutually successful, and Mu is not worthy of what the lady said!"

Of course Deng Mu would not be so stupid as to regard himself as the benefactor of Mr. and Mrs. Liu in public, so he was very humble.

This arrogance made Mrs. Xu appreciate her more and more, and she couldn't help but nod slightly.

After Deng Mu congratulated her on his birthday, it was his turn. Mi Zhu.

The Mi family, as Liu Bei's angel investors, spent all their money to support Liu Bei when he was at the end of his rope.

Mrs. Xu was grateful for the Mi family's contribution, so she naturally praised Mi Zhu and ordered him to sit next to Deng Mu.

"Madam, taking advantage of this festive day, Zhu boldly wants to ask Madam to give Zhu a favor. Mi

Zhu said with a smile and cupped her hands.

Mrs. Xu smiled without thinking:

"What is grace or not? Zizhong made it clear when he said this."

"If you have any difficulties, just ask. Mi

Zhu looked a little embarrassed. After coughing a few times, he looked at Deng Mu.

"Madam, I also know that Commander Ziyu once saved my little sister Mi Zhen’s life."

"Since then, this girl has been obsessed with the military advisor and secretly admired him"

"Zhu shamelessly wants to ask his wife to be a matchmaker. Can he make the marriage between his sister-in-law and the military advisor come true?"

Deng Mu on the side, just as the wine glass was brought to his mouth, it spurted out with a"poof" sound.
