Chapter 654 express their opinions
Zhuge Liang and Fa looked at each other face to face.

The emperor has always had a city mansion, and his emotions and anger are invisible. What happened today?
Although Yuan Shu's recovery of Lujiang River and beheading of Yan Liang were great victories, compared to the emperor's illustrious military exploits, these are not worth mentioning at all.

Liu Xie swept his eyes, and then regained his composure, handed the victory report to Zhuge Liang, and asked him to call Pang Tong and others who were nearby to discuss and analyze together.

This is a great internship opportunity.Behind Yuan Shu's seemingly absurd behavior, there is an inexplicable thought.

After Zhuge Liang and Fa Zhengchuan read the victory report, Pang Tong and others also rushed over.Zhuge Liang and Fa, who had already understood the situation, were meditating aside, waiting to start.They had just witnessed the emperor's mood swings and knew that it was not a simple discussion.

Especially Fazheng.

This is the first important discussion since he joined the job. Whether he can impress the emperor depends on whether he has unique insights.

There are many talents around the emperor, and it is not easy to get ahead.

While reading the victory report, Cai Yan, Yuan Quan, and Wang Yi walked along the path by the Kunming Pond while talking.Ma Yunlu took a few female knights to protect him, with a knife and a bow on his waist. The bow has been wound, and there may be shooting at any time.

Seeing Liu Xie, they stopped, saluted from a distance, and then turned around to leave.

Liu Xie waved and called them over.

"Master Yuan, your lord Yangzhou Mu has good news."

Yuan Quan was slightly startled, but she didn't ask any more questions, but said indifferently: "Even if my father has a little skill, it's just a gift from His Majesty's prestige."

Liu Xie smiled and shook his head. "You're too humble. It's rare to be so wise."

Yuan Quan remained silent, but his curiosity was aroused, and he stood quietly by the side without taking the initiative to leave.

After Pang Tong and the others finished reading, Liu Xie handed the victory report to Yuan Quan.Yuan Quan took it, and quickly browsed through it, with surprise in his eyes.She took out her handkerchief, wiped the corners of her eyes, then read it again, and then shed tears.

"How?" Liu Xie laughed silently.

"I'm stupid, I don't understand the meaning, I just rejoice for him." Yuan Quan's voice was a little muffled. "It's been absurd for most of my life, and it's not in vain to get a word of appreciation from His Majesty."

Liu Xie turned to look at Zhuge Liang and the others. "Which one of you will speak first?"

Several people looked at each other, Fazheng was eager to try, but he didn't dare to speak first.Among the few people present, his qualifications are the most junior.But everyone is a smart person, and the first to speak has the most advantage. Once there are brilliant insights, it will be difficult for the latter to shine.

While he was hesitating, Zhuge Liang smiled and said, "It's better for Xiaozhi to come first. Although he is old, he is late in getting value. Maybe he can have something new."

Pang Tong understood and nodded in agreement.

Fazheng was overjoyed and looked at Liu Xie.

Liu Xie also nodded, accepting Zhuge Liang's opinion.

Being able to take the initiative to give Fazheng the opportunity to speak first, and with sufficient reasons, so that others cannot object, Zhuge Liang has a high emotional intelligence.

Fazheng cleared his throat, and said: "I think that Yangzhou Mu's success in this battle not only recovered Lujiang River and completed Yangzhou, but also protected the counties in Jiangdong. From then on, Jiangdong can avoid the invasion of war and restore peace. In addition, Yan Liang Confer the leadership, there are no rebels in Huainan, and the Jingzhou army going east has no worries. They can go north at any time to assist Yanzhou Mu and capture Suiyang..."

Fazheng talked eloquently, deducing the changes in the situation after Yuan Shu regained Lujiang.

The Lujiang River is south of the Huai River and north of the Yangtze River. It is an important place connecting the Central Plains and Jiangdong.Yuan Shu regained Lujiang, not only unplugging Yuan Shao's nails in Huainan, but also cutting off the connection between Jiangdong and Yuan Shao.

Such as Liu Yao.

Although Liu Yao accepted Zhou Zhong's advice and wrote a letter to admit his minister, he did not sever contact with Yuan Shao.The fact that Xu Shao appeared in Shouchun and intercepted Zhang Xi is a clear proof.

Claiming to be a vassal is only an expedient measure, and it is just a superficial article. Deep down, they are still a party.

But now that Yuan Shu has seized the Lujiang River, it will not be so convenient for Liu Yao to flirt with Yuan Shao.

At least the possibility of a military response is basically gone.

Zong Cheng, Lou Gui and others can go north wholeheartedly, assist Cao Cao to take back Suiyang, and further compress Yuan Shao's space.

At this moment, even if Yuan Shao takes Pengcheng, it will not be able to have a major impact on the hinterland of the Central Plains.

Liu Xie nodded slightly after hearing this.

Fazheng's analysis is basically accurate.If there is no accident, Yuan Shao can only negotiate a peace, and the possibility of turning the tables by force is gone.

"What do you think Yuan Shao will do? Fight back, or accept the reality and continue to negotiate peace?"

Fazheng thought about it. "If I plan for him, I will persuade him to attack Pengcheng. Even if he wants to negotiate a peace, he must control the north of Pengcheng. However, I doubt whether he has such courage and strength. I am afraid that he will accept the reality and continue to negotiate the possibility of peace." Bigger."

Liu Xie's heart skipped a beat.

Sure enough, Fazheng is different from Zhuge Liang, he is more aggressive in military affairs and dares to take risks.

It has to be said that storming Pengcheng meant a lot to Yuan Shao.

If Pengcheng can be taken down, even if Yuan Shao accepts the peace negotiation, his work will not be in vain. At least half of Xuzhou will start.

Pengcheng has been besieged for half a year, and even if Liu Bei is prepared, it is at the end of his battle at this moment.If Yuan Shao has enough determination and will, it is not impossible to win Pengcheng.

"What do you think?" Liu Xie turned to Zhuge Liang and Pang Tong.

Zhuge Liang made a gesture, asking Pang Tong to speak first.

Pang Tong was polite and smiled. "I agree with Xiaozhi's opinion, but I would like to add one more point. Even if Yuan Shao has such courage, it is useless. The real strength is in the hands of Jizhou people, not him. Yan Liang is the leader of the four court pillars in Hebei. The killing will have a great impact on the morale of the Jizhou people and should not be underestimated."

Fazheng disagrees. "What are the Hebei four court pillars, just the bravery of a man, is it that important?"

"Yes, the year before last Guan Yu led his troops to assist Xuzhou and killed Wen Chou, which severely damaged the morale of the Jizhou army. Wen Chou's reputation was not as good as Yan Liang's, so it had such an impact. Yan Liang's death in battle will only have a greater impact."

Fazheng didn't say anything more, but there was some disdain in his eyes.As for whom, it is not clear.

Liu Xie looked at Pang Tong, and said again: "Is there any more?"

Pang Tong bowed slightly. "Your Majesty, if there is no accident, Yuan Shao will accept the peace negotiation, but he may not withdraw his troops. I am worried that he will delay time and stay in Pengcheng to observe the situation. Yangzhou Mu wants to carry out the matter of saving land in Lujiang. I think it should be prudent. Act too hastily, so as not to cause a change and be taken advantage of by Yuan Shao."

Liu Xie said: "Are you worried that the imperial court's support for Yangzhou Mu to live in the Lujiang River will arouse the resistance of the Shandong clan and force them to support Yuan Shao?"

"Exactly."

"In your opinion, the court should reject Yangzhou Mu's proposal?"

Pang Tong shook his head. "I don't support it, I don't veto it, I don't want to stay in the middle school. I won't make a decision until Zong Cheng leads his troops to the north to assist Yanzhou Mu in conquering Suiyang and force Yuan Shao to retreat."

Liu Xie was noncommittal and looked at the others.

Many people agreed with Pang Tong's suggestion, only Zhuge Liang did not publish it.

"Kong Ming, what's your opinion?"

Zhuge Liang raised his head, his eyes were clear. "The minister's opinion is exactly the opposite. The court should not only express its position, but also clearly express its position."
