    If anything, it is Liu Bei who shot himself in the foot. If Liu Bei and Liu Zhang had not been fighting here for so long, Yizhou's food and grass could still be preserved.

    Liu Bei's face was not very good. He still wanted to continue the stalemate with Liu Zhe here, but he did not expect that Zhuge Liang would bring such bad news.

    "How long can our food and grass last?" Liu Bei asked Zhuge Liang.

    "Three months."

    Zhuge Liang said, "If we harvest in autumn, we can support it for one to two more months."

    Before setting off, Wang Lei and Dong He had roughly calculated how long Yizhou¡¯s current food and grass could support Liu Bei¡¯s army in combat.

    "Just a few months?"

    Liu Bei frowned and asked, "Can't there be more?"

    ¡°Four or five months is not a long time for a battle, it can even go by in the blink of an eye.

    It has been seven or eight months since Liu Zhe brought his people here, almost a year.

    If the situation continues like this, Liu Bei feels that the two sides can still confront each other for another year or two.

    In fact, Liu Bei and Liu Zhe have continued to confront each other here for a year and a half.

    But I never expected that the food here was already running low.

    "Can we collect some grain?" Ma Su asked from the side.

    Zhuge Liang glanced at Ma Su and said, "Now the grain and grass have been collected from the people, and the people of Yizhou have begun to complain."

    "What?"

    When Liu Bei heard this, he became a little angry. He slapped the table and said, "Why do we need to collect grain from the people?"

    Liu Bei knew that he was able to reach this point by relying on his good reputation in the eyes of the people. If his reputation was bad, then he would lose the support of the people and it would affect his great cause.

    So Liu Bei was very dissatisfied with Zhuge Liang's answer: "How do you do things?"

    Zhuge Liang did not explain. If Zhuge Liang had not raised the butcher knife in Chengdu, maybe things would not have turned out like this. The people below would not have deceived the superiors and concealed the problem, and he could have discovered the problem of food and grass earlier.

    But if Zhuge Liang doesn¡¯t get rid of a group of dissident people, maybe Liu Bei won¡¯t be able to confront Liu Zhe in Fucheng with peace of mind.

    There are good and bad aspects to this matter, and it¡¯s useless even if Zhuge Liang said it.

    Anyway, things have reached this point, and he is here to help Liu Bei solve the problem.

    "King of Chu."

    Zhuge Liang said to Liu Bei, "This is my fault. I didn't discover it in time. I hope the King of Chu will punish me."

    "Of course I will punish you for this matter."

    Liu Bei was very angry. He said: "But now that you are not in Chengdu to solve the food and grass problem, what is the use of coming here?"

    "Forcing grain and grass from the people's hands will affect Liu Bei's image in the minds of the people, so Liu Bei was very angry.

    "King of Chu."

    Zhuge Liang said, "We can still sustain the food and grass for a few months, so we must defeat Liu Zhe in these months and let Liu Zhe withdraw his troops from Yizhou. Otherwise, Yizhou will be in danger."

    "The officials in Chengdu have made arrangements. With General Wei Yan in charge and Dong and the prefect assisting him, there won't be any big problems in Chengdu."

    "I wonder what the prime minister has to do to defeat Liu Zhe?" Ma Su asked from the side.

    "This requires everyone's collective efforts." Zhuge Liang said.

    Zhuge Liang did not arrogantly say that he would definitely defeat Liu Zhe when he came.

    In fact, Zhuge Liang has no idea for the time being. He has just arrived and the situation is not yet clear, so he dare not say anything casually.

    "What if there is no way to defeat Liu Zhe in a short time?" Liu Bei couldn't help but ask.

    "if it is like this."

    Zhuge Liang paused for a moment, then smiled bitterly and said, "As I said just now, Yizhou may be in danger."

    Liu Bei's face turned gloomy again. He would never accept it if he was asked to spit out Yizhou.

    Yizhou is too important to him.

    Without Yizhou, what if he controls all of Jingzhou?

    How can one state compete for the world?

    "But Liu Zhe has been unable to fight, and we can't do anything to him." Ma Di said.

    "snort."

    Zhu Huan was immediately unhappy with what he said. He said: "He is sending people out now. You??I was scared to death and didn't agree with my general going to fight.  "

    Zhuge Liang glanced at Zhu Huan and Ma Di. He felt the tit-for-tat confrontation between the two and frowned.

    He somewhat understood why Liu Bei had been in Fucheng for so long and couldn't do anything to Liu Zhe.

    If nothing else, just look at Zhu Huan and Ma Di and you will know that if their subordinates are at odds, how can they work together to deal with Liu Zhe?

    "King of Chu."

    Zhuge Liang said to Liu Bei, "I have been thinking all the way here. I think Liu Zhe did this on purpose."

    "on purpose?"

    Liu Bei was puzzled and asked: "Why did he do this? Is it because of insufficient food and grass?"

    "The opposite of."

    Zhuge Liang said, "Perhaps Liu Zhe saw the shortage of food and grass in Yizhou earlier than we did. He did this deliberately to consume our food and grass."

    "How can this be?"

    Ma Su said with a pale face, he couldn't accept this.

    "nothing is impossible."

    Zhuge Liang glanced at Ma Di and said calmly.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
