Three Kingdoms: Prosper Han from the beginning of brushing favorability

Chapter 180
Now Lao Liu also believes that his son is very capable, but he still waved his hands and said: "The military master is too optimistic. Even though Adou is brave and has a bit of wisdom, there are Shen family and Meng Da rebellion in the three counties, and Cao Wei sent troops to attack outside. It's a miracle to be invincible, how can the two of his brothers win quickly?"

"Hehe." Zhuge Liang got up and beckoned the waiter to hang up the map of the three counties, "Your Majesty, everyone, just look at this map."

"Cough, cough, Kong Ming wants to say that the three counties are all mountainous, so the cavalry of Cao Jun is useless?" Fazheng also knew this, but his confidence in Liu Chan was not as great as that of Zhuge Liang, and he still didn't believe that Liu Chan could win quickly.

"That's one of them." Zhuge Liang didn't give a shit, and said with a smile, "Cao's army was defeated by me twice from Hanzhong and Jingzhou. Although Xiangfan was not lost in the end, the loss of soldiers and generals was also quite a lot. If I expected it to be true, this time three There are Shen family and Meng Da echoing in the county, and the terrain is dangerous, Cao Cao will definitely not be willing to join the army."

Old Liu nodded. Indeed, he had seen the three counties in person last time. Most of the three counties were in a dangerous terrain between two mountains and one valley.

Cao Cao's military strength is also tight at this time, and he will definitely not take risks when the situation is unclear.

"Even so, with the assistance of the local tycoon Shen Jia and Meng Da, Cao Jun will be familiar with the geography of this place when he arrives." Fazheng frowned and said, "Wen Chang sent troops, and he must also take into account the defense of Hanzhong. It is not easy for less than [-] people to go to the three counties."

Although Liu Feng occupied Shangyong first, it was not a fortified city. At that time, Cao Jun would go south by water, and Shen Dan and Meng Da would lead the troops to join forces.

"The crown prince has few soldiers, but they are all elite, and they are more proficient in fighting in the mountains. In the three counties, one can be as good as a hundred." Zhuge Liang still looked very calm, and Lu Fan pointed to the map. Dan and Meng Da mean it. Xiao Zhi thought... Who wrote this?"

Fazheng frowned and said nothing. He had been in contact with Liu Feng, and it was really hard to imagine that this person could have such insight.

In terms of wisdom, he is not much less confident than Kong Ming, but after all, Fazheng is not like Kong Ming who watched the two grow up, and his understanding of these two is indeed inferior to Kong Ming.

As soon as Kong Ming said it, Fazheng suddenly remembered that the prince's new guard was in charge of spying on the military situation, using time, etc., could it be...

"The prince has already sent people to the three counties in advance?" Fazheng asked in surprise.

This matter itself is nothing, but what is terrifying is the prince's insight. If he hadn't judged the hidden crisis in the three counties in advance, how could he have prepared early?

This requires a good understanding of Cao Wei's strategy, Shen's thoughts, and the situation of the three counties, so as to gain insight into the opportunities.

As far as he knows, Liu Chan only visited the three counties once after the Hanzhong War...

this is too scary.

Zhuge Liang nodded and smiled: "It must be so. The rebels and Cao Wei lost before the battle. How can they win if they know themselves but not the enemy?"

He knows more than Liu Chan, and he has spent no less thought on the prince than on political affairs these years.

From the initial establishment of the pro-military training to suppress bandits, to the recent establishment of the Shadow Guard, Liu Chan had discussed with him late into the night by lighting a lamp.

From Zhuge Liang's point of view, the battle of the three counties will indeed be well-prepared and unprepared, but it can be seen from Liu Feng's first move that the one who is prepared must be Liu Chan's side.

"Shen Dan pretends to be smart, and the intention in the letter to the king is to lure and kill Wen Chang's reinforcements." Zhuge Liang laughed, "It's a pity that the crown prince was aware of this matter. If the plan is to lead the troops into the three counties, wouldn't it be possible to swindle the west city without bloodshed?"

Lao Liu slapped his thigh, yes, why didn't I think of it?
But immediately looked at Kong Ming with doubts, why are you so sure that my son can think of it?
Zhuge Liang continued to point to the map, and continued with a strong sense of pride: "Once the west city is taken, the Shen family is no longer there, and the crown prince leads the troops to echo with General Liu inside and outside, and it seems that the private soldiers of the Shen family are not worth mentioning.

"Cao Wei only had Fangling at most, and he was unwilling to invest heavy troops, and he lost the help of Shen's family. In addition, the special terrain of the three counties... Hehe, how can there be no reason for it to be invincible?"

Everyone was discussing immediately. After Zhuge Liang said this, it seems reasonable to want to quickly fix such an outrageous thing in the three counties under the internal and external troubles...

After Zhuge Liang finished speaking, he returned to his seat and sat down, bowing his hands to Lao Liu: "Your Majesty can still send Yide to Hanzhong, just in case, but you don't have to worry so much. Now the scenery is just right, why not go hunting in the spring, go for an outing, and wait for the crown prince to return home with peace of mind." ?”

Old Liu pointed at Kong Ming with a smile. The spring hunting and outing are naturally the words of consolation from the military adviser, but now he is really relieved.

But the next moment, he suddenly felt that he had made a huge mistake, and he let out a long sigh.

Fazheng said strangely: "Your Majesty, I also think that what Kong Ming said is reasonable, why did Your Majesty sigh again?"

"The widow only hates not bringing his wife here to listen. With the sharp tongue of the military division, the wife will no longer be worried. The widow can also sleep peacefully..."

Fazheng was taken aback for a moment, looked at Zhuge Liang, and immediately laughed.

It's just that he didn't laugh a few times, and the cough became more severe...and he coughed up blood.

Fazheng suddenly thought of the medical craftsman who was valued by the crown prince: "Forget it, let's find Uncle Wang and take a look."

Most of the biggest worries were resolved, Lao Liu sent someone to inform Zhang Fei to support Hanzhong, and after making some necessary arrangements for possible situations, he was in the mood to ask other things.

"Is there any movement in Nanzhong?" Old Liu looked at Fazheng.

Hearing this, Fazheng quickly put away the bloody silk cloth in his hand: "The Yong family has not moved yet... But recently, he has been very close to Gao Dingyuan, the Yi king of Yueyi, and Meng Huo, the leader of the Meng family in Nanzhong."

The Yong family bought waiters around Lao Liu. Knowing that Nanzhong is not safe, Lao Liu and others, of course, also have their own sources of information.

It is mainly some loyal local officials, such as Zheng Ang, the prefect of Yizhou County, and Jiao Huang, the prefect of Yuexi County. They are all officials who are loyal to the Liu family and often submit information to the central government.

"Have you told Zheng Ang and other officials to be careful?"

"Your Majesty, don't worry, we have already informed you."

Lao Liu took advantage of his son's strategy of making peace at home before fighting against the outside world, and deliberately let people go to Nanzhong to intensify the conflict. Naturally, he couldn't let his own officials be unprepared to suffer losses, or even be tricked to death.

But this matter is of great importance, except for a few officials who can be confirmed to be absolutely reliable... others can only ask for their own blessings.

Old Liu nodded, and looked at Zhuge Liang again: "The military division has been busy with farming and mulberry recently, so I don't know how the Quyuanli matter is going?"

Zhuge Liang smiled even more when he heard this, and cupped his hands and said: "The farmers here have already used it skillfully, and the farming is far better than before. It only needs one man, one ox and one plow. The saved manpower can plow the cattle and plow new land. A farmer Arable land, more than doubled?

"I have summoned a large number of carpenters to make this plow. The nearby big families lost many shaded households because of the prince's recruitment of soldiers. They attach great importance to this plow. Now Shu County has basically been replaced. Qianwei Zhang's family, Brazil Qiao's family, Gong's family also Promote it locally.

"I also plan to order craftsmen to bring samples and go to Hanzhong with Yide's reinforcements, and order Wenchang to promote this plow in Hanzhong. Hanzhong is rich in land and sparsely populated. This plow should be of great use."

At the beginning, Liu Chan invisiblely weakened the population of the big families in Shu County and Guanghan County, but he did not expect to indirectly help the promotion of Quyuanli... It kind of means that the world is the same force.

In addition, Shang Shu Liu Ba proposed to build a brocade city in Chengdu, appoint Jin officials to supervise the weaving of Shu brocade, concentrate production to improve efficiency, expand the scale of mulberry and sericulture, and proposed many other economic strategies. Lao Liu adopted it one after another.

Old Liu, who was smiling and twisting his beard, was worried when he never came back. The three counties don't need to worry too much, and the improvement of agriculture and mulberry and economic revitalization are progressing smoothly.

Just wait until Nanzhong Yong's family can't bear it anymore, they can use excuses to send troops. If Nanzhong is settled, there will be no worries about the future.

At that time, only when the soldiers and food are sufficient, it will be time for the Northern Expedition!
Xinghan to seek thieves is just around the corner.

……

Lao Liu's mood changed from bad to good, but his lifelong rival, Boss Cao, was in a bad situation.

In history, Cao Cao died of illness in the first month of the month, but now it seems that Guan Yu is not dead, and he is concerned about the war in the three counties, so he hangs his breath and persists for more than a month.

However, after hearing his subordinates read the three-county battle report sent by Xu Huang word by word, he finally died...
