Chapter 5 The Loophole of the Longzhong Pair
Fang Shao secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and was about to go out to invite Liu Bei, but after thinking about it, he said: "Sir, since you have decided to go out of the mountain to help Liu Xuande, then there is no need to be in a hurry, if he invites Mr. as soon as he invites him, wouldn't it show the weight of Mr., in my opinion, ignore him this time and see how sincere Liu De is." ”
Zhuge Liang nodded and said: "You have a point, if he doesn't come again this time, then he must not have much sincerity to me, this mountain, just don't go out of the mountain." ”
"Then I'll say that Mr. Yunyou has gone and is not at home today."
With Kong Ming's consent, Fang Shao came out, at this time Liu Bei Shang outside the chai gate looked calm and idle, and that Guan Yu was already gloomy, as if displeased, that Zhang Fei was even more annoyed to go back and forth, Fang Shaogang heard him shout in his throat as soon as he went out: "Brother, Kong Ming dared to hang me here for a long time without coming out, it was too much to see, let me kick in the door, and bring him out to see my brother." ”
Liu Bei hurriedly waved his hand and said: "Yide, Mr. Kong Ming is a master in the world, and there must be some masters who are reserved, so you don't want to come here." ”
Zhang Fei was not angry, and when he saw Fang Shao coming out, he shouted: "Hey, I said that kid, why hasn't your husband come out yet, aren't you afraid that I will burn down your thatched hut." ”
Liu Bei's face changed slightly, and he shouted: "Yide, Hugh is rude." ”
Although Zhang Fei's surname was irritable, he listened to Liu Bei's words very much, and when he was trained like this, he immediately stared at him and didn't dare to make a big noise.
Liu Bei smiled and arched his hand: "This brother of mine is born with such a temper, please don't be surprised." I wonder if Mr. Kong Ming is available? ”
Fang Shao cleared his throat, returned the salute, and said, "That's the case, it's really unfortunate, my husband just went out a few hours ago." ”
Liu Bei looked a little disappointed, but asked again: "Then I don't know where Mr. Kong Ming is going to wander and when will he return?" ”
Fang Shaodao: "My husband has always traveled by heart, and I don't know where he goes. He has always traveled for as little as seven or eight days, and as long as three or five months, and it is uncertain when he will come back. ”
At this time, Guan Yu, who had been silent, approached Liu Bei and said in a low voice: "Brother, I see that this person is inconsistent in words and deeds, and there is a good chance that Kong Ming is at home, but he doesn't want to come out to see him, so he wants to send us away with this excuse." Since he doesn't want to see him, why should we wait here, let's go back to Fancheng first. ”
Liu Bei sighed, and then bowed his hand to Fang Shao: "It's a pity that I can't see Mr. Kong Ming today, and I told you that Liu Bei had come to visit, since Mr. is not here, then come to the door to ask for advice in a few days." ”
With that, the three of them mounted their horses and rode away.
When Fang Shao returned to the house, Zhuge Liang had already taken down the world situation map on the screen, spread it on the floor, squatted there and pondered, Fang Shao said: "Sir, then Liu Bei has already left, but he said that he will come back in a few days." ”
Zhuge Liang's heart was already galloping on the land of Middle-earth at this moment, he only nodded slightly, and said: "Fang Shao, go and study ink, sir, I have something to write." ”
Fang Shao hurriedly went to study the ink and said, "Sir, do you want to make poems?" ”
Zhuge Liang said: "What kind of poem, sir, I have to write a countermeasure quickly, otherwise when Liu Bei comes next time, what will I use to stop him and make him obey me." ”
So, Zhuge Liang's pen walked like the wind, sprinkled on the bamboo slip and wrote hundreds of words, and then held it in his hand to admire himself, and nodded in admiration from time to time, as if he was very complacent.
Zhuge Liang saw the excitement, Suo surnamed threw the bamboo slip to Fang Shao, and said: "Fang Shao, you also have some knowledge, take a look at the general outline of the policy I set for Liu Bei, sir?" ”
Fang Shao took it and looked at it carefully, and couldn't help but smile secretly in his heart, isn't what he is holding in his hand the legendary "Longzhong Pair".
Fang Shao pretended to look at it for a while before he said: "Mr.'s strategy, summed up in four sentences, the so-called 'first take Jingzhou, then take Bashu, East and Sun Wu, and North reject Cao Ying'." ”
Zhuge Liang looked surprised and said, "How can you see it?" ”
Fang Shao sat down and said unhurriedly: "Since Dong Zhuo's rebellion, the world's heroes have risen together. That Cao Ying's power is not as good as Yuan Shao, but in the end, he was able to eliminate Yuan Shao, which does not depend on the time of the day, but also on human strategy. Now Cao Ying has millions of people, coercing the Son of Heaven to order the princes, this kind of strength, not to mention Liu Xuande, even Liu Biao and Sun Wu can't compete with it. And Jiangdong Sun Quan, who has been in the past three generations, is in danger of the country and attached to the people, although his strength is not as good as Cao Ying, but with Liu Xuande's strength, it is not possible, and he can only be used as foreign aid. Looking around Jingzhou, according to the Han Dynasty in the north, the South China Sea, the east of Wuhui, and the west of Bashu, it is really a place to use, with Liu Biao's talent, sooner or later it will not be able to hold. If Liu Xuande can take it, he can use it as a base, and then take Bashu to the west, and with Liu Zhang's ability, he will be invincible. If this plan is carried out smoothly, then when there are Jing and Yi, you can go west and Zhurong, south Fu Yi and Yue, and form Sun Quan outside, and when the world changes, you can send troops from both north and south directions at the same time, so that you can achieve a world hegemony. ”
Fang Shaoyang said it freely, but it was just the "Longzhong Pair" that Zhuge Liang would say to Liu Bei in the future, I am afraid that at this time, Kong Ming also thought the same thing in his heart.
And Zhuge Liang listened to this analysis, and couldn't help but look at Fang Shao is impressed, and said in his heart: "It's incredible that this kid can have such insight." ”
Zhuge Liang was amazed, but also felt that Fang Shao was like a confidant, knowing what he was thinking, and he couldn't help but have a little respect, so he said: "You can have such knowledge, it's really a waste to be a gentleman and my cook." ”
Fang Shao was proud in his heart, but he said: "Mr. will be strategizing in the future, dominating the world, I am honored to be a cook for someone like Mr., how can it be said that it is a waste." ”
This sycophant was so comfortable that Zhuge Liang couldn't help laughing.
When he was laughing happily, Fang Shao said again: "Sir, this strategy can be regarded as a clever strategy, but I think there is still a small loophole in it, and this loophole is likely to be very fatal." ”
Zhuge Liang was stunned for a moment and said: "Sir, I think this strategy is seamless, and it is the only feasible strategy for Liu Xuande, you can talk about it and see what loopholes there are." ”
Fang Shao smiled: "It's nothing else, it's just this 'East and Sun Wu', I think it's a bit wishful thinking." ”
