After executing the prisoners and pacifying the Yizhou Mission, Yang Yi's matter can be regarded as over, Liu Cong is not worried about Liu Zhang's blame, after all, Yang Yi is a native of Xiangyang, and he has only been in Chengdu for more than a year, not to mention whether Yang Yi has a deep grudge with Liu Cong, and Yang Yi is not a heavy minister in Chengdu. Liu Cong's posture is high enough, and there is also a gift money. Yang Yi also got a thick burial, because he was from Xiangyang, so Liu Cong took it upon himself not to be transported back to Chengdu.

However, Fa Zheng visited Liu Cong again before leaving, he knew that Liu Cong was not confident in attacking Yizhou, and he was afraid that Liu Cong would miss the opportunity and let Cao Cao take the lead, so he encouraged him: "General, the former Chu and Han are fighting, Gaozu and Xiang Yu are not his opponents, this is what you know." Han Gaozu only outwitted Xiang Yu in intelligence, but although Xiang Yu was powerful, he was finally forced to kill himself in Wujiang. Moreover, Liu Zhang is far inferior to Xiang Yu's generation!

And the generals under the command of Kong Ming, Yuan Zhi, Shi Yuan, Zi Chu, etc., all have the talents of the world, and they also have the courage of Zhongye, Xingba, Wenchang and other thousands of people. If the general attacks Yizhou, why should he worry about Yizhou if he is willing to do it with Ziqiao? ”

Fa Zheng is not good to say bluntly, in fact, the general, you will not lose to Liu Bang, Liu Bang relies on outwitting to win, and now Liu Cong's advisers and generals are far superior to Liu Zhang, and there are also my Fa Zheng and Zhang Song as internal responses, why are you worried? just bypassed and continued: "Liu Jiyu is cowardly by nature. And the general, you are wise and martial, far superior to him; Although Liu Jiyu is also a relative of the Han family, he wants to vote for Cao Cao, the general is the emperor's younger brother, the general of the Qin's expedition to the south, and you take Kuang to help the Han family as your own responsibility, and once refused to be a strong enemy and extraterritorial, this is righteousness is better than him......

Liu Jiyu, the declining Han Dynasty, treats Haoqiang too leniently, and cannot rectify the crisis with leniency, but you set things right, govern the government strictly, and the whole army acts according to the law, which is better than him; Liu Jiyu is magnanimous on the surface and suspicious in his heart, but he is suspicious of him, only relatives and friends are appointed, and you are simple and easy on the surface but clear in your heart, you never doubt that you will use him as long as you are talented, and you don't care about being far or near you, which is better than him in terms of measurement;

Although Liu Jiyu has the assistance of Ziqiao and others, he has a lot of strategies, but he rarely makes decisions, and failure is inevitable, and you have many think tanks and plans to implement, and the ability to adapt is unlimited, which is a strategy that beats him; Liu Jiyu talks about letting things be used to improve reputation, most people will speak to cover up their shortcomings, most of them take refuge in him, and you treat others with sincerity, not for vanity, most people are loyal and far-sighted people are willing to use it for you, which is morally superior to him; When people died of hunger and disease under the rule of Yizhou, Liu Jiyu often ignored them because of his small affairs, and provided rations for the young, opened a medical center in the state, and recruited medical officers to treat the sick and save people, which is better than him......

The current minister of Yizhou is vying for power, slandering and confusing and causing chaos, and you rule the corporal with morality, and evil things cannot be exercised, this is your wisdom over him; Liu Jiyu can't know whether he is right or wrong, and if you think it's right, you will be entertained with courtesy, and if you make mistakes, you will be punished by law, which is better than him; Liu Jiyu relied too much on his father's foundation and didn't know the importance of using soldiers, but you used less to restrain more, and used soldiers like gods, soldiers rely on you, and the enemy is afraid of you, which is better than him.

The general is far superior to Liu Jiyu in many aspects, just wait for the opportunity, so that the general of the first water army will seize the White Emperor and attack Jiangzhou, the general you will personally lead the main force to attack Ba County, and then enter the siege of Chengdu by land and water, and Zhang Ziqiao is lobbying the Chengdu army and civilians to go out of the city to meet the general, and then Yizhou can be determined! ”

What Fa Zheng said is better than Liu Zhang, Liu Cong does not deny it, and it has to be said that Fa Zheng is smart. He didn't talk about his lack of reuse in Yizhou, but compared Liu Zhang and Liu Cong, as the old saying goes, good birds choose trees and perch, and he is also hinting at Liu Cong, my Fa Zheng is not the kind of person who thinks that he is a traitor and seeks glory, but the advantages and disadvantages of you and Liu Jiyu are too obvious!

Fa Zheng's Ten Victories Theory Yu Guojia encouraged Cao Cao to have the same effect during the Battle of Guandu, which involved almost all aspects of Chinese art of war thought, to the point, concise and clear, broad and profound, and can be completely compared with Sun Tzu's Art of War. The Chinese Art of War believes that a country without wisdom and resourcefulness is not strong, a king without wisdom and a man without wisdom cannot stand, a man without wisdom cannot succeed, and a soldier without wisdom cannot win, and Sun Tzu's Art of War is a famous classic of the art of war.

Sun Tzu's macro-strategic thinking in the Art of War is excellent, but in practice, it lacks research and planning on the humanity of the commanders of both the enemy and the enemy. If only from the grasp of human nature, the theory of ten victories is better than Sun Tzu's Art of War. The difference is that the battle of Guandu seems to be a big force for Yuan Shao, and it was Yuan Shao who took the initiative to provoke the decisive battle in the Central Plains, and now Yizhou is almost as strong as Jingzhou, and even Jingzhou is stronger. So in Fazheng's view, as long as Liu Cong is determined in Xia Dong, Jingzhou will win!

Although Liu Cong knew that Fa Zheng was suspected of piracy and flattery, he was still very happy, and Fa Zheng was able to say this, which shows that he carefully compared Jingzhou and Yizhou, and found out Liu Cong's advantages, which is the most concrete manifestation of worrying about the monarch. At the same time, it also pointed out that Liu Cong could choose two routes to attack Yizhou, among which Jingzhou's naval army had an absolute advantage over Yizhou, once Jiangzhou was captured, and then there was a supply depot from Chengdu by land, and the battle became smoother!

"Thank you Brother Xiao for reminding me, Cong is starting to prepare for various matters, Brother Xiao should be more careful along the way, and say hello to Brother Ziqiao on my behalf!" Fa Zheng must go back to Chengdu first, and Fa Zheng's wife is in Chengdu; Second, according to Fa Zheng, he also has to go back to Chengdu to lobby Yizhou officials who can help Liu Cong, and use Fa Zheng's talent to identify and lobby some Yizhou officials to submit to obedience, which will also get twice the result with half the effort for Liu Cong to attack Yizhou in the future!

Liu Cong has been sending Fa Zheng and his entourage out of Longzhong, and ordered the counties along the way to be careful to receive the Yizhou mission, the external is the Yizhou mission, in fact, Liu Cong is still reluctant to Fa Zheng, in history, Fa Zheng entered Liu Bei's soldiers Mengxia Pass and then took Yizhou, won over the Shu sergeant clan, entered the Han Dynasty, and planned to kill Xiahou Yuan, which can be described as a miraculous achievement. If Fa Zheng and Zhang Songzheng can be used for themselves, it will be of great benefit to seize and govern Yizhou in the future.

It is not unreasonable for Fa Zheng to call Guo Jia, Fa Zheng is good at plotting and plotting, Zhuge Liang is also impressed, Chen Shou once commented on it when he wrote "Three Kingdoms" as similar to Guo Jia of Wei.

And the two of them are surprisingly similar. After Guo Jia's death, Cao Cao was defeated by the Sun-Liu coalition army in Chibi, and after returning to the army, he couldn't help but sigh: "If you are filial piety, you will not be lonely here." After Fa Zheng's death, Liu Bei was defeated by Lu Xun in Yiling, and Zhuge Liang got the news of Liu Bei's defeat and said: "If Fa Xiaozhi is there, he can control the lord and order not to go east; If Fazheng is still alive, he can stop the lord and let him not go eastward; Even if it were a crusade, it would not have lost so badly). "There is a difference between the two.

Guo Fengxiao persuaded Cao Cao to conquer Karasuma in the north, and he was able to win because of his understanding of people; Fa Zheng's defeat of Xiahou Yuan is also Fa Zheng's understanding of people. What is also surprising is that their shortcomings are also recorded in the "Three Kingdoms". Guo Fengxiao did not govern the procuratorate, and the law was filial and abused his power.

Therefore, Fa Zheng is not as simple as an ordinary strategist in Liu Cong's heart, since the history books call him the first strategist of Shu Han, then Liu Cong will naturally have such a person to give advice for himself in the next ten years or even decades, and before he is completely obedient, humility is a must.

Of course, superficial articles cannot be left undone, and treating the Yizhou mission well can better stabilize Liu Zhang and Yizhou civil and military officials. What's more, Yang Yi died in Xiangyang, so Liu Cong rewarded every member of the Yizhou Mission, in order to wait for them to return to Chengdu to replace Fazheng and say good things for themselves.

Liu Cong, who sent Fa Zheng away, was uncertain for several days, Zhuge Liang was not without emotion when he saw this, so he had to persuade him with good words: "Lord, there is no unbroken feast in the world, the lord and Fa Xiaozhi get along very happily, but the lord has more important things to deal with, Fa Xiaozhi also has his mission, he is in Chengdu on a day, and the two of you will naturally be able to see it!" ”

"Mr. Kong Ming, do you think that this Zhang Ziqiao and Fa Xiaozhi will sincerely submit to me? Then Liu Jiyu won't ignore them, right? Obviously, Liu Cong has never suffered from gains and losses like now, Zhuge Liang is also full of emotion, facing the lord, he just walked away, leaving Liu Cong alone there to talk to himself......
