第1章 徐州你把握不住，去抢荆州吧

If you can't hold onto Xuzhou, go and seize Jingzhou.

"Xuande, come with me to seize Jingzhou! We can avoid twenty years of detours!"

Xiao Fang travels back in time to Jingzhou during the late Han Dynasty. By chance, he marries Zhuge Liang's elder sister and becomes the brother-in-law of the future Sleeping Dragon.

As a poor man from humble origins, Xiao Fang, after much deliberation, concluded that assisting Liu Bei was more cost-effective, as he could both be granted a high position and retire in peace.

Just as Liu Bei had just acquired Xuzhou, it was like a child holding gold, making it a target for powerful figures from all sides.

Are we just going to sit idly by and watch Liu Bei stumble and fail everywhere in the north, then waste his time doing nothing in Jingzhou, only to see the north fall to Cao Cao while we still have nothing?

Although he survived countless near-death experiences and established the Shu Han dynasty, he ultimately could not withstand the power of a single state and was forced to remain trapped in Yizhou, facing a slow and inevitable death.

Xiao Fang said he couldn't do it, so he decided to trick Liu Bei into taking Jingzhou ahead of schedule.

Yuan Shao: My family has held high office for four generations, yet I was destroyed by a country bumpkin who assisted a straw sandal weaver.

Cao Cao: Liu Bei's acquisition of Xiao Fang is truly a blessing from heaven. I admit I'm jealous!

In his later years, Zhuge Liang said: "I was able to serve as a minister for eighty years thanks to my brother-in-law's advice to know how to reduce my stress."

Liu Bei: Prime Minister, now that the world is at peace and the people are healthy, may I enjoy myself a little?

Xiao Fang slowly unfolded a world map.

“玄德，跟我去抢荆州吧，咱少走二十年弯路！”

萧方穿越汉末荆州，机缘巧合下娶了诸葛亮长姐为妻，成了未来卧龙的姐夫。

作为一名寒门牛马，萧方几经权衡后，认定辅佐刘备更有性价比，图一个既能封侯拜相，又能安心养老。

适逢刘备刚捡漏徐州，却如稚子抱金，为四方大佬们虎视耽耽。

难道要坐视刘备先在北方浑浑噩噩四处碰壁，又在荆州无所事事虚度光阴，眼睁睁看着北方归曹，自己却仍一无所有？

尔后虽九死一生，开创蜀汉基业，却终究一隅难敌一国，只能落得个困守益州，慢性死亡的结局？

萧方表示我做不到，于是决意忽悠刘备提前拿下荆州。

袁绍：我四世三公，竟为一乡野村夫，辅佐一织席贩履之徒所灭？

曹操：刘备得萧方，真乃天佑也，我承认我酸了！

晚年诸葛亮：我能为臣八十载，得益于姐夫曾告诫我，要懂得给自己减压。

刘备：丞相啊，如今天下已定，百姓安康，朕能稍微享受享受了吗？

萧方缓缓打开一幅世界地图。
