Chapter 154: Bet On The War In The North!

Chen Xi is too idle. Many people feel this way when they see Chen Xi who is enjoying his daily teas. Therefore, Liu Bei can only suppress Chen Xi for the harmony of his ministers and don't let him go too far. Do you fail to see Lu Su and Liu Ye who have been working crazy day and night for more than ten days? And Chen Xi sits on the opposite side and drinks tea every day. Isn't this inducing internal conflicts?

"Li You, why do you think Chen Xi is so lazy?" Liu Bei asked Li You with some depression.

"Human nature." Li You's tone was always calm.

"Then why are Lu Su and Liu Ye so diligent?" Liu Bei asked, hiding outside the government office.

"Because they haven't finished handling the government affairs." Li You's unrelenting tone made Liu Bei's depression become even higher, and the answer almost choke Liu Bei.

"Then why can Chen Xi always handle his government affairs." Liu Bei became even more curious and asked.

Li You stood behind Liu Bei and said calmly, "Because most of the government affairs, even before they appear, Chen Xi has thought about it. So when the government affairs are in his hand, he just deals with it directly."

Li You looked straight in front of him. He didn't care at all about Liu Bei's situation where Liu Bei squatted at the entrance of the government office and carefully peeped inside.

This kind of thing has no effect on Li You, who has almost seen through the world and can become a buddha. What is the appearance of a lord? You can go find anyone. Isn't it just someone everyone brags about? If it looks like a lord according to some people, it is more likely to be a lord. In other words, isn't the template of the human lord's image all from bragging? For example, isn't Liu Bei, who is spying outside the wall, the famous hero of the Central Plains? Do you dare to believe this situation that is happening now?

"Well, it makes sense. Chen Xi does things like this. He likes to plan ahead the most." Liu Bei said without lifting his head. "Li You, let's walk around and see where there is still a problem with Fenggao."

Li You turned his head and nodded to Xu Chu. All the literary ministers liked this kind of straightforward fierce general. Especially after confirming that Xu Chu had a mediocre IQ, Li You preferred to take him by his side.

Xu Chu's flesh on his body shook. He then scratched his head and continued to follow behind them. He always felt a faint feeling of danger coming from Li You from time to time.

Chen Xi is still frantically studying how to spend the least time to get the most accurate situation in Jizhou, Yanzhou, and Yuzhou. Current affairs and politics are not what Chen Xi likes. After all, he really hates these things because of the need to always pay attention to the situation in the world. This kind of thing is too time wasteful for Chen Xi.

"Ah!" Chen Xi directly lay his head on the table. This time, even Lu Su and Liu Ye, who had never cared about the surrounding situation, raised their heads and looked at Chen Xi, whose head lay on the table.

"Chen Xi, what's the matter?" Lu Su hesitated for a moment but still asked. After all, this guy is a gentleman. Although Chen Xi has molested him many times, he still unconsciously reaches out to help when necessary and he doesn't mind that he has been planted in pits many times.

"Lu Su, let us change our works. I'll help you solve the Qingzhou government affairs, and you will help me pay attention to the situation in Jizhou, Yanzhou, and Yuzhou." Chen Xi looked at Lu Su with hope and said.

"...Liu Ye, let's continue." Lu Su lowered his head and continued to work. Then he acted like he didn't even hear Chen Xi's noise. In desperation, Chen Xi started kicking the table, like a child making trouble, so Lu Su and Liu Ye couldn't work at all.

"Chen Xi, what do you want?" Lu Su and Liu Ye asked with gritted teeth. They were in a hurry to work but Chen Xi was causing trouble.

Chen Xi swept away the frivolousness from before, and said solemnly, "Let's make a bet. If you lose, you two will help me pay attention to the situation in the three states of Jizhou, Yanzhou, and Yuzhou and I will help you finish your government affairs. According to your approach, you can never finish it. To be precise, you won't be able to meet your requirements in your lifetime. How about it.? Do you want to bet?"

"Are you saying that it's impossible to complete it in this lifetime?" Lu Su was taken aback, then stared directly at Chen Xi and asked.

"Qingzhou and Taishan have exceeded two million people under the rule of Liu Bei. The various disputes that may occur with such a large population are not calculable by two people. Although you two are indeed very intelligent, your life is not long enough to complete this great cause, and disputes will change over time. The situation can change at any time." Chen Xi said with a smile. He had also peeked at the government affairs organized by Lu Su and Liu Ye, so he noticed that it wasn't because the two of them couldn't complete the task that he explained before, but because they were too big-hearted.

"We just collected and sorted out the common disputes. Not sorting out all the disputes as you said," Liu Ye said while shaking his head. He felt it was a little unbelievable.

"Oh, forget it, I won't talk to you about it anymore. I'll just ask if you want to gamble. No matter whether you win or lose, I will help you finish this matter, and it is more detailed than what you two have put together now. How about it?" Chen Xi was too lazy to explain, and continued to ask.

"Since Chen Xi is so elegant, it's not beautiful to not accompany him. Chen Xi, what do you want to bet?" Lu Su said after a little thought. As for Liu Ye, he was still thinking, but after Lu Su spoke, he also closely followed.

"When do you say that Yuan Shao can turn from defense into offense? Let's bet on this." Chen Xi said with a smile.

"How to bet on this?" Lu Su frowned. At this time, the war between Gongsun Zan and Yuan Shao had just begun, and Gongsun Zan was still in a state of having great advantage. No one could underestimate the power of Baimayi Cong. How to guess this?

"Liu Ye what about you?" Chen Xi looked to the side to ask, but Liu Ye also shook his head again and again.

"If this is the case, then I will state my estimate. You can see whether it's right or wrong." Chen Xi said with a touch of confidence on his face. There was no way of losing. Although he has just come into contact with the intelligence of Jizhou and Youzhou just now, but seeing the battle get to Jieqiao, Chen Xi was a little shocked by this. He didn't expect the battle drag on and on, and finally dragged to the battle of Jieqiao.

Later, he combined it with other information to fully understand what the situation is right now. Although Yuan Shao's troops marching north to Youzhou were not as many as Gongsun Zan, they were not much less. They were meeting against the enemy like the Jieqiao battle in history. There is still a big difference in the comparison, so the Jieqiao battle that was supposed to have been fought before was not fought at all. According to the information, the soldiers on both sides of Jieqiao couldn't fully fight at all.

However, Yuan Shao felt the pressure from Liu Bei not long ago, so he took the risk of dividing his troops to attack Bingzhou. Since the troops were less, he naturally shrank the line of defense. Once he moved the troops, he turned the defense line to the place of Jieqiao. In other words, according to Gongsun Zan's pride in this period, he would never pay attention to the fact that cavalry was not good here...
