Chapter 241(2/2)
If Yuan Xi was really shameless and asked for two counties, they would have nothing to say. After all, Liu Bei had already spoken, could they still oppose their lord?
Yuan Xi added: "As for Guangling, to be honest with you, I hope to take care of it for Duke Xuande."
"Xuzhou's place of hundreds of battles is coveted by others, especially Yuan Shu in the south. There are naval attacks at any time. It is difficult to defend it by land alone."
"It just so happens that we have merchant ships in Youzhou, which can be used as naval forces to assist in the defense of Youzhou. It will also be convenient to mobilize troops from Youzhou at that time."
When Liu Bei heard this, he looked ashamed and said, "Young Master only took one county. He is so noble and upright. Bei is really ashamed."
When Liu Bei's officials heard this, they all praised him loudly: "Sign your great virtue, Master Yi, and let me bow down to the ground!"
All of a sudden, there were endless compliments and compliments in the hall.
Yuan Xi smiled and thought that these officials were not fools. They were flattering themselves and making it difficult for them to regret it.
He raised his hand slightly and said to everyone: "Xi occupied Guangling, but he is not familiar with the people's sentiments and is afraid of chaos in the place."
"That's why I'm so brave and want to borrow someone from Duke Xuande."
