One Thousand and Twenty-One I will look forward to the day when you return to Luoyang City

Guo thought that in that era, Zhuge Liang's administrative ability was so strong and the world was so big that there was no one else like him.

After Liu Bei's death, he took over the mess of Shu Han and worked hard to rectify the country for him.

Crusade against the south and central stability of the rear, build Dujiangyan, build more Jiuli embankment, improve the fire well to boil salt, persuade farmers to cultivate mulberry, and plant mulberry trees and silkworms near their homes, so as to call on everyone to contribute to the weaving of Shu brocade.

The Shu brocade industry is the pillar industry of Zhuge Liang's crusade against Cao Wei.

Because Shu brocade sold so well in Cao Wei, Cao Pi had to write articles many times to dissuade Cao Wei's high-class officials and nobles from buying too much Shu brocade during his short seven-year reign.

After letting Zhuge Liang make too much money, Zhuge Liang will rely on Shu brocade trading to make money to crusade against Lao Tzu, are you all blind?!

Of course, they are not blind, but how can the fate of the country compare with their own luxury?

If there is too much money and nowhere to spend, isn't it fun to make money?

Cao Wei's high society was not controlled by Cao Pi, and certainly not by Cao Rui.

However, Zhuge Liang worked hard to suppress the dignitaries and nobles in Shuzhong, and sent the central power to the entire Yizhou, so that Shu Han gained enough mobilization power to launch a strategic offensive.

This is something that neither Soochow nor Cao Wei can understand.

Even before Zhuge Liang's Northern Expedition, the ruling clique of Cao Wei could not believe that Shu Han, a mere state, could burst out with such a powerful force.

Therefore, even if he knew that Zhuge Liang was preparing for the Northern Expedition in Hanzhong a year in advance, Cao Rui did not make a corresponding military strategy.

Instead, he put Xiahou Nan, a child of anointed sorghum, in Chang'an.

So much so that at the beginning of Zhuge Liang's Northern Expedition, Cao Wei's Western Theater collapsed almost instantly.

The three counties surrendered, Liangzhou collapsed, Yongzhou was in danger, and the military and administrative intelligence was in a mess, which was completely unable to resist Zhuge Liang's offensive.

If it weren't for Cao Rui going crazy in time and sending people from Luoyang to help the Western Theater, and Ma Yan's on-the-spot performance and psychological quality were really poor, the situation would be really difficult to say.

Therefore, Guo Peng felt that Zhuge Liang had a very good appetite for him, and Zhuge Liang should actually know Cao Wei's biggest weakness and where Shu Han's only chance of victory was.

It is a government that is more powerful than Cao Wei and a strong mobilizer.

The comparison of the national strength of Shu Han and Cao Wei is one to ten.

In the Western Theater, Zhuge Liang can play this one to the extreme, while Cao Wei can only throw away the ten plays.

The huge disparity in the intensity of mobilization made it less abrupt to attack the strong with the weak in this area of the Cao Wei Western Theater.

Zhuge Liang knew that Cao Weikong had huge national strength, but his ability to invest was very limited.

Limited by transportation and politics, Cao Wei could not put the whole country's forces into the Western Theater and crush Shu Han to death.

Since Cao Cao's death, Cao Wei's mobilization efforts have plummeted, the army's combat effectiveness has declined rapidly, military talents have gradually withered, and the military strength maintained under the Tuntian system has begun to decline.

Zhuge Liang, on the other hand, could devote all the Yizhou forces he had at his disposal to Cao Wei's Western Theater, where he fought to the death with Cao Wei for population and resources.

So in some areas, Zhuge Liang's military strength was not weaker than Cao Wei, and even in some cases, it was stronger than Cao Wei.

This is where the confidence of his Northern Expedition lies.

If Zhuge Liang was born ten or twenty years earlier, Guo Peng felt that the person sitting in Cheng Yu's position now should be Zhuge Liang.

A helper who is very happy for himself.

It can help you implement the policy of strengthening grassroots governance and control, so that you can reduce the burden a little, and truly worry about the monarch.

Cheng Yu can't be absent.

To treat the people of Lishu, Guo needs to use Zhuge Liang.

To treat the warriors and heroes, Guo needs to use Cheng Yu.

The two are one white and one black.

One person is responsible for magnifying the bright side of Guo someone, and the other person is responsible for magnifying the dark side of Guo someone.

One is as bright as the sun, and the other is as cruel as hell.

Now Cheng Yu is cruel enough, but Zhuge Liang is not brilliant enough.

Hurry up and grow up, Zhuge Kongming.

In the future, you are the only one who can maintain such a strong mobilization force for the Wei Empire.

Let's learn, let's experience, see how I have this empire in my hands, and see what is happening at the bottom of this country, what is warm and what is dirty.

With such expectations, Guo Peng reached out and helped Zhuge Liang up.

"Your ambition, I know, Kong Ming, I am looking forward to your excellent political achievements, I will watch you in Luoyang City, and I will look forward to the day when you return to Luoyang City."

Zhuge Liang looked at Guo Peng with some surprise, as if he didn't expect Guo Peng to say such a thing to him.

Then, he nodded.

"The minister will not let His Majesty down."

"Go ahead."

Guo Peng waved his hand and said goodbye to this belated real Wang Zuozhicai for the time being.

Zhuge Liang was arranged by Guo Peng to go to Liangzhou and served as the magistrate of Dunhuang County in Dunhuang County, Liangzhou.

At this important port connecting the Western Regions, Guo is looking forward to Zhuge Liang's achievements, letting Guo know that he is not looking at the wrong person, and letting him know that Zhuge Liang is Zhuge Liang.

He hopes that Zhuge Liang can light up the glory and era that belongs to him, and grow up quickly, so that he will not worry that Guo Jin will not have an excellent assistant to help him after he dies.

The news of Zhuge Liang's appointment as the magistrate of Dunhuang County soon spread through the cabinet.

As one of the few people who were deeply appreciated by Cao Cao, Zhuge Liang's action was relatively incomprehensible.

There is also a division of official ranks within the cabinet.

In addition to the first assistant of the cabinet, there is also a secondary assistant and a maximum of eight group assistants, in order to connect with the eight departments of Shangshutai and pass on the emperor's decrees, and when necessary, they also need to work together.

In addition to the day-to-day administration, the first assistant is mainly in charge of auditing and checking for the emperor, and the second assistant is the actual person in charge of the day-to-day, as for the group assistant, the number has never reached eight anyway.

For example, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs has not had a single business for several years, and there is no need for a special auxiliary minister to dock.

Because of his strong ability and smart mind, Zhuge Liang has always stayed in the group of the Ministry of Civil Affairs, which is the busiest in dealing with things, and is deeply appreciated by Cao Cao.

Some people even said that Cao Cao intended to recommend Zhuge Liang to Guo Peng, so that Guo Peng could promote Zhuge Liang as an auxiliary minister, so that the young Zhuge Liang could make a name for himself in the cabinet.

And I have to say that Zhuge Liang's ability is really strong, his thinking is clear, and he thinks about problems very comprehensively, which is recognized by the cabinet.

But this time, Zhuge Liang actually asked to be released, and no one knew what the reason was, and Cao Cao didn't know either.

Cao Cao did not lose his position, but because he was involved in this turmoil and also participated in Cheng Yu's general attack, he was fined a few months, and then cut 100 households.

This is also a punishment, but compared to Cui Yan, it is simply tickling.

So many people can still see that although Cao Cao is a supporter of Cheng Yu, Cao Cao's identity is different from Cheng Yu after all, he is still deeply trusted after all and will not fall.

Compared with those officials who were released out, or the bigwigs of Shangshutai, Cao Cao was simply undefeated in the golden body itself.

But Zhuge Liang chose to leave the cabinet at this time and chose to go to a remote place like Liangzhou......

He really didn't offend anyone, so he ......

No, the newly appointed secretary Zhang Zhao is also from Xuzhou.

What is this operation?

Everyone can't think of it even if they want to break their heads.

Zhuge Liang didn't think to tell too many people what he thought.

After saying goodbye to Cao Cao, he called his three or five friends, and set up a small banquet in a wine shop in Luoyang City, invited these three or five friends, and made a brief farewell to them.
