Chapter 99
"Cao Zihuan is a man, I know a little about it."

Pang Tong looked at Kong Ming who was listening carefully, and finally felt a little better in his heart.

"Before the Cao bandits conquered Zhang Xiu, they took many sons with them. In the second year of Jian'an, Zhang Xiu first surrendered and then rebelled. Cao Zixiu died, and Cao Zihuan escaped on horseback."

Zhang Fei interjected: "Military teacher, what do you mean by surrendering first and then rebelling? Is Cao thief doing a human thing?"

"Third brother, don't talk too much." Liu Bei scolded to avoid going off topic, and signaled Pang Tong to continue.

"After the death of Cao Zixiu, Cao Zihuan has been raised in Xudu until now. Before that, Kong Ming and I outlined his power struggle. This son has never been in the army, so he doesn't know soldiers."

"My lord traveled to Yiling alone, but the north was not a Cao thief who had traveled through the battle. There was only one child, and Sun Hou lied and dragged him away. If there are corrupt scholars in the court who boast and talk, they will watch the fire from the other side."

Pang Tong was vague, but Zhang Fei could understand:

"The military division means that this Cao Pi is a housekeeper?"

Everyone nodded, isn't that what it means to sum it up?
[Liu Guanzhang's brotherhood is well known to the whole world.

At the end of October 220, Cao Pi officially usurped Han and proclaimed himself emperor. At a court meeting, Cao Wei raised an issue:
Will Liu Bei launch an army to defeat Wu because of Guan Yu's death?
The courtiers of Cao Wei quickly reached a consensus:

"Shu, the ear of a small country, the famous general Wei Yu. Yu died and the army was broken. The country is worried and has no chance to come back."】

Wei Yan looked a little reverently. Although the minister of Cao thief was not rude, he at least recognized General Guan's toughness, a famous general!
Zhang Fei chuckled, "Brother, it seems that this traitor Cao is quite confident."

Liu Bei didn't speak, but stared at the word usurping Han in a daze:
From the perspective of later generations, the later Han Dynasty died?

There was a sneer on his mouth: "How dare you not recognize the act of rebellion? Calling Han Shu is deceiving yourself."

"It's easy." Guan Yu said lightly:

"Wait for elder brother Chen Bing Xudu, I will immediately hold a knife and ask this gentleman, are we Shu or Han?"

[But at this time, only Liu Ye jumped out to disagree. This person has a very clear view of Liu Bei's character.

First of all, I think that Liu Bei is a strong character, never submissive and not smooth enough.

This is correct, after all, Liu Ye is the descendant of Fuling King Liu Yan after Guangwu, and he is a genuine clan relative.

As a genuine royal family member of mine, I have already obeyed the sky and obeyed the people. What do you say that you, a clan member who can't beat [-] shots, are fighting for your life? 】

Liu Bei is no longer attached to the identity of the emperor's uncle. Hearing this, he just smiled lightly, but it's more of a pity:

"Zi Yang is very courageous, but it's a pity that Cao thief has kindness to him."

Jiang Wan was neither convinced nor a little angry:
"Afterwards, the ancestors used their bodies to serve the bandits, but the lord Weimo started a family and did glorious things instead."

"The kindness of the Cao thief is better than the kindness of the Han Dynasty?"

"It's not as good as it is." Kong Ming shook his head: "During the Yangzhou Rebellion, the Cao thief saved him from the rebellious army. It is indeed a kindness."

"However, as a clan member, it is unwise to lose the righteousness and integrity."

Zhang Fei was more serious and called out:
"Hey, if someone surnamed Cao digs the grave of his ancestors in front of him, he can still ignore it, he is a good minister!"

[In terms of personality, Liu Ye believes that the more desperate Liu Bei is, the more drastic measures he will take to show that he is still capable.

Secondly, the relationship between Liu Bei and Guan Yu, nominally monarch and minister, is actually stronger than the relationship between father and son.

Now that Guan Yu is newly mourned, if Liu Bei cannot raise troops to avenge him, how can he give Guan Yu an explanation?

Liu Ye saw Liu Bei very clearly, and later Fu Xuan, a famous minister of the Western Jin Dynasty, also analyzed Liu Ye very clearly:

According to Liu Ye's wise calculation, if he lived with virtue and righteousness, and acted with loyalty and trustworthiness, the ancient great sages would be like this.

To put it another way, it is to say that Liu Yekong has the brains of a sage, who has neither morality nor loyalty.

But looking at it from another angle, even such a famous official needs to admit that Liu Ye's brain is really good. 】

"Is this a compliment or a curse?" Zhang Fei was confused.

Kongming shook his feather fan and said with a smile: "Everyone has died since ancient times, and the people cannot stand without faith."

"Loyalty, virtue and righteousness are the foundation of one's life. If there is nothing like this, what's the use of talent."

"I understand after the military master explained it like this!" Zhang Fei beat his hands with his fists:
"This person is scolding that Liu Ye is not a human being!"

"This Liu Ziyang has a talent for knowing people." Pang Tong admired:
"With just a few words, it can be concluded that the lord will definitely leave Yiling, but with such comments from later generations, I'm afraid Liu Ziyang will not end well."

[Different from counselors like Guo Jia and Kong Ming who can stabilize the country with one strategy, Liu Ye is more famous in history because his super-world strategy was not adopted.

One is that after Cao Cao took Hanzhong, Liu Ye persuaded Cao Cao to take advantage of the instability of Yizhou and the prestige of a great victory, and the people of Yizhou must hope to return.

If you don't fight now, Liu Bei's account has Zhuge Liang Fazheng, Wu Guanyu and Zhang Fei. After Yizhou is settled, they will occupy the natural danger and there will be no need to fight.

In the face of Liu Ye's persuasion, Cao Cao made the famous decision "Delong can't look at Shu". 】

"One strategy to bring peace to the country is overrated." Kong Ming disagreed:

"Without the lord's tenacity and the generals fighting to the death, Longzhong's confrontation would be nothing more than empty talk on the couch."

"Cao Bandit retreated, I think it was because Uncle Biyan was going to take the title of Sun Shiwan?"

Cao Cao did not take Hanzhong, and the battle of Dangqu followed. Zhang Fei remembered clearly:
"If Thief Cao knew Zhang Babai's name, he might attack Yizhou by force."

"This strategy is also suspected of being an armistice on paper." Guan Yu deliberated carefully in his mind and said:

"When Guanzhong attacked Yizhou, there was a Baoxie Road and a waterway to transport grain and grass. However, entering Yizhou, the Jinniu Road was difficult."

"Besides, there are no surrendered generals in Yizhou under the Cao thief's tent, and they don't know geography. How can they quickly attack Yizhou?"

"It's not as good as a military division." Jiang Wan concluded.

Kong Ming and Pang Tong couldn't help but nodded, then looked at each other and then at Jiang Wan: Which military adviser are you talking about?
[The second is the battle of Yiling. Seven months after Liu Ye made the prediction in the court that Liu Bei would definitely send troops, Liu Bei did send troops.

Facing the attack of the Shu Han, Sun Wu actively prepared for the war on the one hand, and sent envoys to surrender on the other hand.

Sun Quan took the initiative to give in!This is a big event, the courtiers all congratulated it, and Cao Pi was also very happy, this is something his father has never been able to do in his life.

But in this excitement, Liu Ye came again.

It could be seen that Cao Pi was very happy, so Liu Ye was very careful in persuading him, speaking earnestly and slowly.

First of all, it is believed that with Sun Quan's ugly captive nature, it must be a critical moment to surrender for no reason.

Now that Liu Bei is attacking Wu, Sun Quan is worried that we will also send troops to Jiangdong, so he came to pretend to surrender.

The reasoning is simple and easy to understand. After the lecture, it’s time to draw a big cake:

Liu Ye believes that there are ten in the world today, Cao has eight, and Sun and Liu each have one. Previously, it was not easy for the two to help each other, but now they are fighting each other. This is God's chance to unify you, Your Majesty!

There is no need for any strategy at all, all the soldiers and horses go straight into the hinterland of Jiangdong, and divide the attack inside and outside with the Shu Han, and Sun Wu will perish within ten days.

And after the demise of Sun Wu, the Shu Han was alone, why should we fight with us?The consumption is exhausting him! 】
