Although Liu Bei was born from the grassroots. But his attitude towards Zhao Xing was surprisingly consistent with Cao Cao's, which was the basis for his eventual alliance with Cao Cao.

Perhaps, even if Liu Bei sold straw sandals and weaved straw mats back then, he still regarded himself as a nobleman in his bones. Even if he is a nobleman who has been in decline for a long time, he still has the halo of King Jing of Zhongshan on his head, and once the opportunity comes, he will become a veritable nobleman.

It is precisely because he has been wandering around, and because he has been forced to work hard at the grassroots, that Liu Bei cherishes every hard-won opportunity to turn over, and always tries to seize every opportunity that can put him in a higher position.

Liu Bei, who is now the prime minister of the Han Dynasty, occasionally thinks of the sadness and humiliation he suffered when he was exposed to the market in the dead of night. If it weren't for Su Shuang and Zhang Shiping, who were the heroes of the same county, who felt that he had the potential to do great things, and helped his mother and son on weekdays, Liu Bei would not have had the opportunity to go to Luoyang to study, worship under the great Confucian Lu Zhi of the time, and finally use Lu Zhi to embark on the fast track of promotion all the way.

When Liu Bei was young, although he worshipped Lu Zhi as his teacher, he didn't like to read those so-called "sage books", but liked to make dogs and ride horses, and make friends with those bold and chivalrous people. Although Liu Bei is not good at reading, he has an advantage that is difficult for others to have, that is, he can see people very accurately, that is, as the saying goes, his eyes are particularly "poisonous". It was precisely because Liu Bei had the wisdom to know people that Lu Zhi was able to tolerate him mixing in his mansion until he went out to study when the Yellow Turban Rebellion arose.

Compared with Cao Cao, Liu Bei's literary talent is a big loss; compared with the huge family power behind Cao Cao, although Liu Bei bears the name of a descendant of the Han family, he is really self-made. Rao is like this, now Liu Bei is in the position of prime minister, and his status and power are still faintly above Cao Cao.

Liu Bei's ability to achieve today's status is inseparable from his generosity, charity, good at bribing and winning people's hearts, and perseverance, which is also where he is better than Cao Cao in his character.

Liu Bei, recorded in the historical materials, at the beginning of the business, was extremely difficult, running around like a lost dog, relying on Yuan Shao, was restrained, and when he was attached to Cao Cao, Cao Cao's advisers wanted to kill him. Cao Cao avoided killing both times and treated him with courtesy, and then he took the opportunity to escape and refused Cao. He also relied on Liu Biao, but Liu Biao was secretly wary of it, endured humiliation, and tried to dominate. It can be seen that he has the spirit of perseverance and perseverance, and he is a hard bone that cannot be defeated or dragged down.

Even Zhao Xing sometimes mentions Liu Bei, he will sigh to the people around him: "Liu Da'er is really a rare super little strong, as long as you leave him a chance to breathe, he will appear in the place and time that surprises you!" Even if there is a demon like Zhao Xing who is invincible, Cao Cao and Liu Bei, who have the characteristics of heroes or heroes, will still rise, even if they are not as bright and radiant as they remember, but they have undoubtedly become two mountains in front of Zhao Xing.

Liu Bei, who lives in Luoyang, is not like Cao Cao, and occasionally when he has time, he will compose a "Short Song Xing" in a commotion, and he devotes himself to how to contain Zhao Xing and resist Zhao Xing's cause.

In Liu Bei's view, Zhao Xing is the one who poses the greatest threat to his current status and identity, if he can't eradicate Zhao Xing, then sooner or later his position as prime minister will be taken away. It is this kind of belief and idea that is almost paranoid that makes Liu Bei always show full of confidence and fighting spirit in front of the ministers of the DPRK and China.

Seeing that Zhao Xing was about to open the "National Games" in Jinyang, although Liu Bei did not openly oppose this method, he did not relax his vigilance in private. Since Zhao Xing wanted to show off in front of the world, Liu Bei naturally couldn't fulfill Zhao Xing's wish so easily.

Liu Bei secretly gave death orders to the officials of Sili, Yanzhou, Yuzhou, and Yangzhou counties, and they must select the strange people and strangers who have outstanding performance in certain events in their counties in accordance with the items and rules set by the "National Games" and go to Jinyang to participate in the "National Games" to win glory for the imperial court and the county. Liu Bei also suggested that Cao Cao select people with extraordinary abilities among the various armies, hide his military status and mix among the ordinary people, and go to Jinyang to "sweep the field".

If Liu Bei just made such small movements, he would not be Liu Bei.

Taking advantage of Zhao Xing's tour abroad and returning to the Jin Kingdom to participate in the "National Games", Liu Bei quietly inspected all the officials above the county and county orders in the prefectures directly controlled by the imperial court, and then replaced all those officials who were active and intended to imitate the governing philosophy of the Jin State, and wantonly installed the children of the big families to take up the positions of officials in these counties and counties.

Liu Bei specially invited Su Shuang and Zhang Shiping to appoint these two people to official positions in the Dasi Nong Mansion, and asked them to specially convene a group of talents who were proficient in business calculations to conduct a very strict review of the branches of the Jin State in the four prefectures of Si, Yan, Henan, and Yang, as well as the commercial warehouses opened by the merchants of the Jin State, and many of the originally very profitable transactions were included in the Dahan Si Nong Mansion to operate.

Wei Zhen, who has been lurking in Chenliu County, Yanzhou, if it weren't for his brain, he would have almost been caught by the people sent by Liu Bei for his secret communication with Crouching Tiger City. If Cao Cao knew about this matter, not only would Wei Zhen's life be in danger, but he was afraid that his son Wei Zi would be greatly implicated.

Not only that, Liu Bei now began to try his best to restrict the dissemination and sale of several newspapers published by the Jin State in the territory, and he also followed Sima Yi's example and also founded a newspaper in Luoyang, inviting Luoyang Taixue's sacrificial wine and Taixue students to establish the "Dahan Zhengbao" that directly obeyed his orders. Looking at the name that Liu Bei gave to the newspaper, it is clear that he wants to tell the world that "Jin Bao" is only the words of the Jin family, and "Dahan Zhengbao" is the official newspaper that truly represents the voice of the imperial court and the Son of Heaven.

In order to ensure the loyalty of the army, Liu Bei gritted his teeth and allocated a large amount of military expenses from the treasury to Cao Cao, so that Cao Cao could use it to open a training school for training officers and a training camp for training soldiers. In order to attract craftsmen with unique skills to come to Luoyang to make a living, Liu Bei not only abolished many of the rules that restricted manual operations in the past, but also prescribed very favorable conditions, and even directly began to select some officials from among the craftsmen. Although the positions of these officials are very low, and they are all tasteless sesame officials, this is also a great thing for ordinary people.

All this, Liu Bei's methods and tricks are one after another. It's just that Liu Bei seems to have forgotten that many of the methods he uses to deal with Zhao Xing now are inspired by Zhao Xing. For example, the practice of suppressing newspapers with newspapers, the practice of sending people to participate in sports meetings to earn face for the imperial court, the practice of conducting a comprehensive assessment of grassroots officials, and the examination of important economic fields related to the national economy and people's livelihood......

With the spear of the son, the shield of the attacker. Is it possible to do so?
