Chapter 106 The achievements of Emperor Wu of Wei
[Sun Quan sent Guan Yu's head to Xuchang, and Cao Cao buried him with the courtesy of a prince. 】

……

Big man,

There was silence outside Linhua Hall.
No more singing, no more dancing.

This situation has taken a turn for the worse.

The situation was obviously very good, why did it suddenly collapse?

Liu Bang frowned and tapped his fingers on the table.

He sent troops in July and was defeated in December.

The middle period is five months.

There were good news in August and September, but the situation started to be bad in October.

Even if he asked for help immediately that month, Liu Bei's army would be ready to go when the letter arrived.

Here and there, time is not enough...

Liu Bang sighed.

"Why did it end in a dead end?"

"Now it depends on whether Liu Bei can conquer Guanzhong."

"As long as we have the land of Guanzhong, we can cut off the connection between Longdi and the Central Plains, and Liangzhou will fall without a fight."

"With Hangu in hand, we can advance, attack, retreat, or defend. There is still a slight possibility."

After hearing Liu Bang talking a lot, Lu Pheasant on the side said in a deep voice:

"I'm just afraid that Liu Bei won't attack Guanzhong."

Liu Bang showed a hint of impatience on his face,

"Where else can he go if he doesn't go to Guanzhong!"

"Jingzhou is lost, Guan Yu's navy is gone."

"The land of Yizhou is surrounded by mountains. Where else can he go besides Guanzhong?"

A sneer flashed across Lu Zhi's face, and then disappeared in an instant.

"Then let's make a bet."

Liu Bang immediately became alert.

"Why would Mr. Nai make a bet with you? It's such an obvious thing."

Ignoring Liu Bang's flat refusal, Lu Pheasant folded his hands in front of his abdomen, sat upright, and said lightly:

"I bet Liu Bei will go south to Jingzhou to avenge Guan Yu."

Liu Bang sneered and was about to speak when he heard Lu Pheasant's next words.

"The bet is that Lu's relatives will not enter the court."

The smile gradually faded, and Liu Bang's hand hidden in his robe sleeves clenched involuntarily.

She was so sure that Liu Bei would go to Jingzhou?

why?
Liu Bang was thinking expressionlessly.

Jingzhou has fallen into the hands of Sun Quan, and Cao Cao is pressing Hanzhong to the north.

The most important thing Liu Bei should do at this time is to repair Sun Quan and advance into Guanzhong!

What's the use of going to Jingzhou?

"What's the bet I'm going to make?"

Liu Bang couldn't figure it out for a moment, so he asked Lu Fei bluntly what he wanted.

"That pill."

Lu Pheasant made no secret of his goals.

Liu Bang was thinking deeply.

He knew there was a problem here, but the bet offered by the other party did exactly what he wanted.

How to choose between these pros and cons?

Liu Bang closed his eyes and thought.

If he wins, Lu's relatives will no longer be a thorn in his side.

If he loses, Lu Pheasant will live longer and the Lu family will grow stronger again.

If something unexpected happens to Mr. Nai, that kid Liu Heng will be able to survive.

on the contrary,

Now that Mr. Nai is young and strong, Lu's relatives can take care of him.

Don't rush.

Liu Bang slowly opened his eyes.

This medicine must be kept for Xiao He!
"I won't bet."

Lu Zhi's body froze slightly, and then turned his head.

"Forget it if you don't bet."

Damn old bastard!
Liu Bang on the side suddenly smiled and leaned next to Lu Pheasant.

"Eshen, why do you think that boy Liu Bei will go to Jingzhou? Why?"

Lu Zhi pushed him away with a look of boredom.

"Think for yourself!"

"E-姁~ Okay, E-姁~ just tell me!"

Lu Zhi didn't want to hear how disgusting he was, so he said angrily:

"Because Liu Bei values ​​friendship!"

"Not as ruthless and ruthless as some shameless old bastard! He's so heartless! He's so shameless!"

Liu Bang completely ignored Lu Pheasant's harsh words and just touched his chin and said:
"Can't? How can this kind of temporary enthusiasm be compared with Jiangshan Sheji?"

"Besides, even if Liu Bei takes over for a moment, Zhuge Liang will still be there."

……

Ji Han,

"Second brother! You died so miserably!"

"Jiangdong rats! I'm going to skin them and remove their bones!"

Looking at the sky, Guan Yu's head was sent to Yecheng.

Zhang Fei was so angry that he stood up and rushed out!
"Wide!"

Liu Bei quickly stood up to stop him.

"Brother! Why don't you take revenge on your second brother?"

Zhang Fei, who was stopped, shouted at Liu Bei with an angry look on his face.

"Third brother, so-and-so is not dead yet..."

Guan Yu, who was still lowering his head, blaming himself for losing Jingzhou in the future, raised his head helplessly and said.

"..."

Everyone in the hall suddenly reacted.

Yes, Guan Yu is not dead yet!
Zhang Fei was choked by these words and his anger stopped, but then he became angry again!

He strode up to the cowering Mi Fang, pulled him out, knocked him to the ground, and said angrily:
"Shameless villain! He betrayed his second brother!"

Then he gave me a heart-warming kick!

Mi Fang was kicked, but she didn't say a word, holding her breath in her chest, and her face suddenly turned livid.

If Guan Yu hadn't stopped him in time, Zhang Fei's hateful kick would have directly kicked Mi Fang to death!
"Second brother! Why did you stop me? If this traitor hadn't surrendered to Sun Quan, how could the second brother have died! How could Jiangling be lost!"

Guan Yu didn't look good either, but Yi stopped Zhang Feiran and said:

"Third brother, the country has national laws. Even if you kill someone, you must be punished according to the crime."

"The incident in the sky has not happened yet, how can I be punished without guilt? Where are you doing this, my eldest brother?"

Zhang Fei shook off Guan Yu's hand and said angrily:
"This won't work! That won't work either! I don't care! You can figure it out yourself!"

After saying that, he sat back in his seat, picked up the wine bottle, and started drinking directly without using the bartender.

Guan Yu looked at Zhang Fei, sighed, and then looked at Liu Bei.

Swinging his hem, he knelt down on one knee, cupped his fists with both hands and said:

"Brother, Yun Chang..."

Guan Yu's voice was choked with sobs, and the endless shame and hatred behind him couldn't be put into words.

Liu Bei quickly helped Guan Yu up, patted his dusty hem, and then looked directly at him.

"Second brother, I know your thoughts well, so don't say anything about it."

"Every time you take a step, you gain wisdom, and use the sky as a warning!"

Guan Yu looked at Liu Bei with red eyes.

"Brother, Jingzhou... let others guard it."

Liu Bei patted Guan Yu on the shoulder.

"Don't Guan Yunchang dare to avenge his shame?"

"Big brother..."

"Second brother, one family does not speak the same language as the other."

"Brother..."

"Second brother!"

Zhang Fei on the side rolled his eyes, held up the wine bottle and said:
"What to do with that guy on the ground?"

Liu Bei and Guan Yu no longer looked at each other and looked at Mi Fang on the ground.

Mi Fang, who was on the ground, was holding her broken chest, her face pale:

"Lord, I didn't do anything?"

Liu Bei looked ugly.

"Zifang, why?"

"Xiapi, Xiaopei, Xuzhou, Yecheng, Runan, Xinye, Changbanpo. This journey has been full of ups and downs, but you have never left me."

"Even if Cao Cao recommends you as Prime Minister of Pengcheng, you will resign and continue to travel with you."

"Why did you turn your back on Yun Chang?"

Mi Fang's eyes on the ground were a little distracted, her hands were still covering her chest, and she murmured:

"Lord, eldest brother, Zifang doesn't have it...my brother doesn't have it..."

Before he finished speaking, the person fainted.

"Zifang! Someone is coming!" Liu Bei was startled and immediately called for someone to come!

"My lord, Zhu is guilty!"

They were still panicking here, but another person appeared over there.

Mi Zhu knelt on her knees and kowtowed.

"Zhu failed to manage Zifang well, which resulted in a big mistake!"

"Please punish Zhu!"

On the other side, Liu Bei hurriedly ran over to help Mi Zhu up.

Mi Zhu couldn't bear to die, and Liu Bei was too strong to hold him back and pulled him up directly.

"Zizhong! Don't say it hasn't happened yet! Even if it has happened, what does it have to do with you?"

"Don't think too much! Take Zi Fang to recuperate quickly. This is a big deal, don't delay."

Mi Zhu looked at Liu Bei with a sincere expression and felt even more ashamed.

Without saying anything, he just bowed to the ground, and then with the help of the soldiers, he helped Mi Fang go down to seek medical treatment.

Watching the chaotic scene gradually subside, Liu Bei let out a long breath.

There is a long way to go.

"Kong Ming, let's discuss aiding the Hefei battle."

……

Datang,

Li Chengqian looked at the sky and asked incomprehensively:
"Mi Fang has endured hardships with Liu Bei all the way and has survived for so long. Why did she turn to Sun Quan at the last moment?"

Li Shimin twirled his beard and pondered for a moment.

"I don't know."

Li Chengqian:?

Oh my gosh! There are things that Aye doesn’t know!
Li Shimin glanced at the shocked Li Chengqian and said lightly:
"Three Kingdoms' statements are often untrue and short."

"We can only see that Mi Fang is an internal agent of Soochow, but why is she an internal agent?"

"I don't know."

"But I'm sure of one thing."

"What? Aye?"

"That's humility."

"modesty?"

Li Shimin nodded,

"Just like me, I never look down on others."

"That's why we can fully convince talents and win people's hearts."

"And Guan Yu's temper is just too arrogant."

"In the entire Ji Hanzhong, apart from Liu Bei and Zhang Fei, there are only three people I like."

"Zhuge Liang, Pang Tong, Zhao Yun."

"The rest of the people are just chickens and dogs in his eyes."

"If he wasn't so arrogant, Sun Quan wouldn't be so quick to break up."

"So, no matter how humble your opponent is, no matter how much you look down on him. You cannot despise him."

"A lion fights a rabbit with all his strength, that's more or less the case."

……

The play continues on the marquee,

Yecheng,

A group of civil servants and generals were asking Cao Cao, who was sitting at the top, to ask him to proclaim himself emperor.

Looking at the ministers in front of him, Cao Cao sighed:
"If destiny were on me, I would be King Wen of Zhou."

……

[In the winter of 219 AD, Sun Quan wrote to Cao Cao to proclaim himself a minister, "state the destiny of heaven", and persuaded Cao Cao to proclaim himself emperor. 】

[Cao Cao showed Sun Quan's letter to the officials. Chen Qun, Xia Houjing, Sima Yi and others all persuaded Cao Cao to ascend the throne. 】

[Cao Cao did not take advantage of the situation to abolish the Han Dynasty and establish himself on his own. He just said: "If fate is mine, I will be King Wen of Zhou."]

[On the 220rd of the first lunar month in 66 AD, Cao Cao died of illness in Luoyang at the age of . 】

[Posthumously named King Wu, he was buried in Gaoling in the western suburbs of Yecheng, close to the Ximen Leopard Temple. 】

[After Cao Cao's death, the eldest son Cao Pi succeeded the king of Wei. In the same year, he was forced to abdicate, usurped the throne and established Cao Wei himself, and worshiped Cao Cao as Emperor Taizu Wu. 】

[Born into a family of officials, the young man was wild and unrestrained. 】

[At the age of twenty, he punished the powerful, and at the age of thirty-six, he raised an army to attack Dong. 】

[Welcome the emperor at the age of forty-two, and unify the north at the age of fifty-three. 】

[Died of illness in Luoyang at the age of sixty-six. 】

[Old friends of thousands of years have passed away, and the story of future generations will be overshadowed by their merits. 】

……

{The original dragon-slaying warrior who stood in the tent of the eighteen princes gradually turned into the person he hated the most when he was young, a figure among the loyal and treacherous ministers of the Han Dynasty. }
{Boss Cao can achieve hegemony by being more wicked than anyone else. I have learned about the farmland system, the military system, the scholar family system, the wrong service system, the legal marriage system for soldiers who died, and the hostage system of the upper-level generals that Boss Cao implemented. Controlling the military system and the governorship, it is really hard for you to have any favorable impressions of his path to becoming a king. }
{Although these systems stabilized his army and food sources, ensured his control over middle- and lower-level officers, helped him survive crisis after crisis, helped him get up again and again after falling, and allowed him to go farther than anyone else. Far, but really wicked. }
{Liu Bei is not immoral, and then Guan Yu's navy all ran away. }
{How can one achieve great things without being immoral? }

{I personally like Liu Bei. }
{But in terms of ability, Cao Cao was undoubtedly the number one warlord in the late Eastern Han Dynasty, and Liu Bei ranked among the top three in terms of personal ability. }
{In terms of charisma, Liu Bei is undoubtedly the number one, and Cao Cao's charm ranks second. }
{In summary, at that time, Cao Cao had the strongest overall ability and Liu Bei was the most popular. }
……

The period of Emperor Wen of the Han Dynasty
Liu Qi took a breath, pointed at the sky and said in surprise:
"Father! He didn't proclaim himself emperor? Instead, he asked his son to proclaim himself emperor! He's so old and cunning!"

"His son has been blamed for all the infamy! He is really cheating on his son!"

Liu Heng glanced at him, and he felt that Liu Qi was criticizing Huai.

"Do you think he doesn't want to? He knows that as long as he proclaims himself emperor, Liu Bei and Sun Quan will immediately follow suit. However, he, Cao, will have to bear the charge of "usurping the Han"."

"Although Cao Cao is not the emperor, he still represents the court, but Liu Bei and Sun Quan are just local places, divided into upper and lower levels."

"But if all three people are proclaimed emperor, Liu Bei and Sun Quan will no longer be a place, but each other. They will have equal status, and he will be more righteous."

"However, he still did what he should do, such as becoming a duke, founding a country, and becoming a king, and he never moved forward."

"False in name only."

"Cao Cao is deeply respected by Huang Lao and his righteousness."

Liu Qi lowered his head and muttered:

"A traitor, and he even boasts about it."

"What are you mumbling about?"

"Huh? I said... father, it's great to see you!"

……

Late Han Dynasty, Emperor Xian period
At the end of his life, Cao Cao looked at the sky and said slowly:

"At the beginning, my wish was to inscribe on the tombstone after my death: The tomb of Cao Hou, the general who conquered the West during the Han Dynasty."

Cao Cao carefully restrained the sleeves of his robe hanging to the ground.

"However, since the suppression of the Yellow Turbans."

"Challenge Dong Zhuo and eliminate Yuan Shu."

"Destroy Lu Bu and destroy Yuan Shao."

"Determine Liu Biao and bring peace to the world."

"Shocking all over the world."

"Assuming that there is no one in the country, I don't know how many people will be called emperors and how many people will be called kings!"

"Gu's merit reaches the people."

Sima Yi beside him listened quietly and said nothing.

……

[Emperor Wu of Wei·Cao Cao]

[Military achievements: unified the north, defeated Wuhuan at the Battle of Bailang Mountain.

Wuhuan's territory was destroyed. After that, Wuhuan's power gradually weakened, and the tribal population merged into the Han or Xianbei tribes, and eventually faded out of the stage of history. Evaluation level A, four points]

[System construction: punish the powerful and build a three-province framework. Evaluation level B, score three points]

[Diplomatic strategy: No diplomacy, basic evaluation is C level, two points. 】

[People's livelihood economy: implement farm farming, reform household registration, build water conservancy, check household registration, and enrich household registration.

After years of fighting, Xu Duxiangfan rebelled.

“When the people are unhappy, more people flee”

"Taizu moved the people to fill Hebei, and the people of Longxi, Tianshui, and Nan'an were afraid of each other and disturbed each other."

However, "except for the prohibition of Chiyu and the light tax of Guanjin, all taxes will be restored to tithe.", reducing taxes.

Comprehensive evaluation grade C, two points]

[Note: The separatist regime has no S evaluation]

[Note: The rewards for those who are not unified emperors have their own restrictions, please research on your own. 】

[(No one wants any S!)]

[Total score: nineteen points]

 I have a terrible headache. It is easy to catch cold and wind during this period. Please keep warm.

  That's it for this panel.

  It is estimated that some people will be dissatisfied with Cao Cao's military column and say something.

  What about the military column?

  Unify to the highest level, then expand territory, secure territory, and quell civil strife. This decreases.

  After all, it is about taking stock of achievements, not personal abilities.

  There are too many personal abilities written about in this section of the Three Kingdoms, and it is impossible to change the scoring system accordingly.

  This is the root. If you change the front part, it will be useless.

  But then again.

  No one thinks that the Three Kingdoms Festival is all about merit, right?
  The one that is more difficult to arrange now is Liu Chan.

  Prime Minister! ! !
  You are putting me in such a difficult position! ! !
