Three Kingdoms: My Strategy Simulator

In an instant, Liu Zhang couldn't help but think about such a coincidence and the current situation.

Nowadays, as the emperor sells his official position and becomes more and more blatant, even without any cover-up, this also leads to more and more people in the world who are dissatisfied with the imperial court.

And after the "Yellow Turban Rebellion", the emperor still did not restrain himself at all. On the contrary, the trend became more and more fierce. This also made many knowledgeable people gradually come to their senses and began to judge whether the imperial court could last long.

Liu Yan also thought about it more and more, and felt that there was a great opportunity.

At this moment, Liu Zhang was even more imaginative under Li Ji's reminder.

"Does Mr. Zikun mean that my father is in Shu and my husband is in Wu, waiting for an opportunity?" Liu Zhang asked cautiously.

"Don't say it, don't say it..."

Li Ji waved his hand inexplicably, feeling that he needed a feather fan in his hand, otherwise he would have thought it would be more stylish.

Immediately, Li Ji continued to speak.

"However, Ji Yu should be aware that the land of Yizhou has taken advantage of the natural dangers in the middle of Shu and formed a country of its own. It is easy to defend but difficult to attack, but it is also difficult to get out of Shu."

"Even if there is a rebellion in Shu, the imperial court only needs to send an army to block Hanzhong and then order Jingzhou to lock the Yangtze River. Even if there are millions of troops in Shu and countless money and food, it will be difficult to do anything."

"Therefore, if there is no external aid in Sichuan, it will just be a trapped beast still fighting..."

At the end, Li Ji's tone contained a bit of embarrassment and emotion.

What is lamented and lamented is Zhuge Liang's Seven Journeys from Qishan!
Could it be that Zhuge Liang didn't realize that the odds of winning were extremely low and it would be difficult to get out of Shu?
But Zhuge Liang knew very well that he could not give up. Even if he had only one in ten thousand chance, in order to revitalize the Han Dynasty and repay the kindness of the late emperor, he could only go north and then go north again.

Otherwise, once the Shu Han also gives up, it will mean that the Han Dynasty has completely become a historical term.

The Han Dynasty did not die due to Dong Zhuo's rebellion in 189, nor did it die when Cao Pi succeeded to the throne in 220, but when Liu Chan surrendered in 263.

But when Liu Zhang heard these words, he felt that what Li Ji was lamenting and lamenting was the plight of Yizhou.

Suddenly, Liu Zhang seemed to completely understand why Li Ji did what he did!
Presumably, Li Ji was also very dissatisfied with the emperor and the court, but Li Ji knew that Wu Jun alone could not achieve anything.

Yizhou may have a rich population and is easy to defend and difficult to attack, but Yizhou alone is difficult to get out of Shu, and it needs allies from outside to welcome and respond.

For a moment, Liu Zhang felt that his horizons seemed to have suddenly improved a lot. He jumped out of the chessboard and began to look at the Han Dynasty's chess game. He found that the best ally in Shu was Yangzhou.

The two sides can be connected to each other through the Yangtze River. They can not only meet at Jingzhou and join forces to the north, but also separate to attack in Hanzhong and Xuzhou. Three routes can go out together, and there will be great achievements!
Liu Zhang, who gradually understood a lot, quickly bowed and saluted Li Ji.

"I've learned a lesson, Mr. Zikun."

Li Ji nodded, regardless of what Liu Zhang understood, but asked directly. "In this case, maybe I also want to go to Sichuan, but Ji Yu guesses that he should understand why I want to continue to stay in Wu County."

"Mr. Zikun's foresight and overall view make Zhang admire him." Liu Zhang replied.

Immediately, Liu Zhang paused and then asked. "It's just that I wonder if Brother Xuande means the same thing?"

Li Ji smiled and said. "My lord and Liu Yizhou are both clansmen of the Han Dynasty and share the blood of the great ancestor. The only thing they want to think about is to revitalize the Han Dynasty, so don't worry too much."

This point actually touched Liu Zhang's heart.

No matter what, it's just meat rotting in the pot.

"What Mr. Zikun said is absolutely true!"

Liu Zhang cupped his hands and said softly, then asked softly.

"Mr. Zikun, it's just that my father also intends to help His Majesty clean up the emperor, eliminate the traitors, and restore a peaceful world to the great man. But I would like to ask Mr. Zikun to teach me how to do it specifically."

Li Ji pondered for a while and didn't speak for a long time, which made Liu Zhang's heart tense.

Now Liu Zhang, who thought he had an overview of the overall situation, was worried about nothing more than what excessive conditions Li Ji would put forward, so that both sides would start to gain momentum at the same time, with Liu Bei taking the lead.

This is undoubtedly completely unacceptable to Liu Zhang and Liu Yan.

Do you really think it's just a matter of pure Qingjun?

He was aiming for the throne, could he really just kill the treacherous minister?
Rebellion is a serious crime of beheading. Anyway, as clan members of the Han clan, they are not afraid of being held accountable by the Yi clan. They are all charged with the same crime and punished. Naturally, Liu Yan and Liu Zhang want the reputation of righteousness more.

Liu Zhang gritted his teeth, immediately threw out the bottom line, and said. "Mr. Zikun, I know that Brother Xuande has not yet established a stable foothold in Wu County. I would like to contribute 500,000 dans of grain and grass to show my support."

There was no emotion on Li Ji's face, but he only felt his heart beating a little.

Five hundred thousand dans of grain?

Seriously?
elder brother!
Li Ji's bottom line was to get the 300,000 dan of grain brought by Liu Zhang, and then find a way to deceive Liu Zhang, thinking of waiting for an opportunity to deceive him more.

Unexpectedly, Liu Zhang, a big dog owner, would increase the amount by 200,000 Dan as soon as he opened his mouth!
He is worthy of being the son of Liu Yizhou, who is sitting in the land of abundance. For a moment, Li Ji felt that Liu Zhang, who was a bit annoying before, looked so cute and lovable now.

What kind of fat guy is this? This is obviously our national treasure from Sichuan!
This chubby belly, chubby little face, chubby eyes and mouth...

"Five million dans of grain and grass?"

However, Li Ji's qi-nurturing skills were quite good. On the surface, he still read the numbers Liu Zhang said calmly, lest Liu Zhang himself made a mistake and refused to admit it.

However, Li Ji's plain voice sounded like a hint of dissatisfaction to Liu Zhang's ears.

This made Liu Zhang grit his teeth and said in a deep voice.

"Mr. Zikun, 600,000. Yizhou is willing to donate 600,000 dans of grain and grass to Wu County. This is the maximum that Zhang can give according to his ability."

Li Ji raised his eyebrows vaguely, then quickly suppressed the hint of joy that flashed between his eyebrows, and replied calmly.

"Forget it, I have also felt Liu Yizhou's intentions. Maybe these grains and grass are of little use to me, but Wu County is vast and sparsely populated, with few soldiers and food shortages. If I store it, I hope it will be useful someday. "Mr. Xie Zikun!"

Liu Zhang was immediately overjoyed and said quickly.

"Mr. Zikun, there are 300,000 dans of grain stored in the fleet that came with me now. This is considered as a deposit to be delivered to Wu County. The remaining 300,000 dans of grain will need to wait until I return to Yizhou to report. My father will be able to bring it gradually."

"I still believe in Liu Yizhou's credibility."

Li Ji waved his hand, as if he didn't care too much about the mere 600,000 tons of grain, but only cared about the overall situation.

"That……"

Liu Zhang rubbed his hands and signaled.

"Come here with your ears." Li Ji said.

Immediately, Liu Zhang hurriedly approached Li Ji, raised his ears and leaned towards him.

As Li Ji spoke, Liu Zhang's expression kept changing back and forth.

After Li Ji finished speaking, Liu Zhang still couldn't fully digest the content for a long time.

Then, Liu Zhang bowed to Li Ji and praised him.

"Sir, you are really talented. If you follow this plan, my father will be able to protect himself without losing his status as a loyal minister. When he retreats, he can stay in one place, and when he enters, he can leave the side of the Qing Dynasty in Hanzhong."

However, Liu Zhang suddenly thought of a question, and his expression turned ugly.

Previously, Liu Zhang and Liu Yan were considering someone who would be completely defined as a traitor by the court and would directly break the earth and become the king.

But Li Ji's plan undoubtedly eased the situation a lot, allowing the court to completely lose control of Liu Yan while still maintaining a certain amount of face.

In this way, the imperial court would naturally not directly kill the three protons Liu Yan left in Luoyang.

This was a great thing for Liu Yan, but not necessarily for Liu Zhang.

If the three brothers returned to Yizhou, wouldn't it cause their brothers to fall into discord? This was a situation that Liu Zhang, as a filial son, did not want to see.

For a time, Liu Zhang's expression kept changing, which was extremely exciting.

Li Ji saw this and asked. "But what's the mystery?"

"Mr. Zikun's plan is naturally very clever, but...just..."

Liu Zhang's mouth moved for a while, but he didn't know how to express what he meant accurately.

Luoyang Le, the three brothers shouldn’t miss Shu!
Immediately, Liu Zhang gritted his teeth, prostrated himself in front of Li Ji again, and said. "Mr. Zikun, I still have questions in my mind. If Mr. Zikun can help me answer them, I will be rewarded in the future."

"Why is Ji Yu giving such a great gift? Please get up quickly. If you have any problems, just ask them directly. Gideon should tell you everything you know." Li Ji quickly helped his little national treasure up and said.

However, Liu Zhang was lying on the ground, and Li Jila couldn't pull him up. Then he raised his head and asked carefully.

"That is...Zhang intends to inherit his father's ambition, how should he do it?"

Liu Zhang said this politely.

What does it mean to inherit one’s father’s will?

Since it is called inheriting one's father's will, it is natural to inherit all the father's inheritance. Otherwise, how can it be called inheriting one's father's will?
Therefore, Li Ji naturally understood Liu Zhang's thoughts instantly.

Li Ji released his hands supporting Liu Zhang and rubbed his chin.

Then, under Liu Zhang's nervous gaze, Li Ji walked back and forth five steps in the room, suddenly stopped, and spoke.

"This is easy to hear."

"Please sir, teach me." Liu Zhang was overjoyed and said quickly.

Li Ji spoke slowly.

"Although Liu Yizhou is the shepherd of Yizhou and holds the military and political power of Yizhou, he is still an outsider to the Yizhou family. Therefore, in order to further stabilize the Yizhou family, Liu Yizhou may have already started arranging a relationship with Yizhou for Ji Yu. The marriage of aristocratic families.”

When Liu Zhang heard this, he felt that Li Jiguo was really powerful.

This matter was mentioned casually by Liu Yan before Liu Zhang set out. He didn't expect that Li Jiyuan could predict it so accurately even though he was thousands of miles away.

"So, Ji Yu still doesn't understand? If Ji Yu can get all the support from the Yizhou family, it will be easy to inherit his father's ambition." Li Ji continued.

"So...multiple marriages?" Liu Zhang was a little confused and felt that his waist was beginning to hurt in advance.

"No!"

Li Ji said helplessly, and then continued. "At this moment, there is an excellent opportunity in front of Ji Yu."

"Where is the opportunity?" Liu Zhang asked quickly.

"In order to seize the military and political power of Yizhou as soon as possible, Liu Yizhou naturally needs to show more prestige to the aristocratic family. Ji Yu only needs to show more kindness. Why can't he give full play to the Yizhou aristocratic family?"

Li Ji first set a tone and then continued.

"Today, there is a thief Gan Ning who wants to assassinate Ji Yu. This is actually an opportunity to show kindness. Ji Yu only pursues the thief Gan Ning and does not involve the Gan family and others. He can even win over the Gan family with money and goods. ”

"In this way, in the eyes of other aristocratic families in Yizhou, Ji Yu can be so kind to Ji Yu, even those who want to do evil to Ji Yu. Wouldn't those who follow Ji Yu loyally be rewarded a thousand times over?" (End of chapter)
