Three Kingdoms: I choose Xiao Qiao and Da Qiao, why are you crying, Diao Chan?

Chapter 265 Fa Zheng, Fa Xiao Zhi! (Thanks to Brother Kong Cheng for the small reward~~)
Chang'an City, Weiyang Palace.

After hearing Li Li's crying, Liu Xie was so angry that he threw the bamboo slips in his hand to the ground, making a sharp and crisp sound:
"Forty thousand troops... a full forty thousand troops!
"You're the only one who came back... You and your uncle are both trash!!"

Seeing Liu Xie's face flushed with anger, Zuo Feng, a eunuch standing nearby, tried to comfort him in a shrill voice:

"Your Majesty, calm down! If you damage the dragon's body with anger, won't that just make the enemy laugh?
"General Li was alone and had no one to support him, otherwise he wouldn't have been defeated like this..."

Hearing this, Liu Xie glanced at the eunuch.

The eunuch in front of him was the one who slandered Lu Zhi for defending his fortress without fighting during the Yellow Turban Rebellion.

He is now pleading for Li Jue, which probably means he has accepted a lot of bribes from Li Jue before.

Although it is known that these eunuchs can easily cause chaos in the government.

But it is undeniable that these eunuchs are often very careful and speak nicely, and many emperors like them very much.

No wonder the emperors before them were always accompanied by several eunuchs...

With Zuo Feng's persuasion, Liu Xie did calm down quickly.

If you think about it carefully, Li Jue did not have a decent adviser around him, and when he went deep into the enemy's position, he faced all kinds of calculations of the enemy.

Although I thought that not many troops would come back.

But I didn't expect that only one person would come back, and he was released by the enemy...

The strength of Lu Bu's army is far more terrifying than he imagined!
If I had known this, I probably shouldn't have torn my face off with him so quickly...

But now that things have come to this, there is no point in regretting.

Liu Xie immediately summoned Jia Xu, but he did not expect that the other party actually brought another person.

Liu Xie looked towards the man.

The other person looked to be about eighteen or nineteen years old, with slightly reddish hair.

He has a refined temperament, but his eyes are bright and sharp, and it seems that he can clearly distinguish between right and wrong!
Liu Xie knew that this was not an ordinary person, so he immediately asked Jia Xu:
"I wonder who this young talent is..."

Jia Xu introduced:
“Your Majesty, this man’s surname is Fa, his given name is Zheng, his courtesy name is Xiaozhi, and he is from Youfufeng, Sizhou.

"I originally planned to go to Yizhou to seek refuge with Liu Yan, but I didn't expect Liu Yan to pass away recently.

“Considering that Lü Bu’s army was now attacking Yizhou and the fighting was chaotic, we stayed in Youfufeng.

“I heard about this person when I went to Youfufeng to purchase war horses the other day.

"After talking with him, I found that he is a man of great talent, so I invited him back to serve Your Majesty!"

After listening to Jia Xu's words, Liu Xie knew that this guy was probably looking for Fa Zheng to come back to share the affairs.

But I still couldn't help showing surprise!

Fazheng, Faxiaozhi!

Although he had never seen this person in his previous life, he heard that this guy was a top talent during the time he was controlled by Cao Wei!

He once offered a brilliant plan to help Huang Zhong kill Xiahou Yuan, which made him secretly happy at the time!
He is comparable to top strategists like Cheng Yu and Guo Jia!

Liu Xie happily stepped forward and shook Fa Zheng's hand.

The gloom that had filled his heart because of Li Jue's defeat was instantly swept away!
"With your help, I can accomplish great things!"

There was a hint of surprise in the eyes of Fa Zheng and Jia Xu.

The former was naturally flattered, while the latter was quite surprised.

It was as if the little emperor already knew in advance that Fa Zheng was a great talent.

Unable to figure out the reason, Jia Xu felt that the little emperor was more and more unfathomable!
Liu Xie immediately promoted Fa Zheng to the position of Chief Censor, who was mainly responsible for legal affairs.

He believed that Fa Zheng could distinguish between gratitude and resentment and would be able to do a good job.

Of course, when there is nothing to do, he would stay by Jia Xu's side and come up with ideas together.

Liu Xie told Jia Xu the news that Li Jue's army was wiped out.

After listening to this, Jia Xu couldn't help but frown.

He also didn't expect that Li Jue would be defeated so completely.

The enemy army had even done the post-war work, minimizing the negative impact of Lu Bu's army's attack on the imperial army!
Outsiders may not believe in the so-called justice of Lu Bu's army, but as long as Lu Bu's own subordinates believe in it, this matter will not have much impact on Lu Bu's army.

Although Jia Xu had an original plan to use.

But at this moment, another genius was standing next to him, and he immediately looked at the other person:
"What do you think we should do now?"

Faced with Jia Xu's questions, Fa Zheng, who had just entered the officialdom, gradually calmed down from his previous surprise.

He held his right elbow with his left hand, pinched his chin with his right hand, and said thoughtfully:

"First, Your Majesty should announce to the world and clarify the evil deeds of Lu Bu's army.

"Secondly, we can issue an imperial decree to Liu Zhang of Yizhou, asking him to assist his brother Liu Mao wholeheartedly and resolve the chaos in Yizhou.

"Finally, we can secretly unite with Liu Bei, Liu Mao and Shi Xie of Jiaozhou, and join forces to attack Lu Bu!
"Faced with the siege of the four armies, even if Lu Bu's army had great abilities, it would be difficult to resist at the same time."

Hearing that Fa Zheng's final suggestion was exactly the same as Jia Xu's, Liu Xie immediately adopted his strategy.

First, he announced to the world, severely scolded Lu Bu for breaking his promise, and executed the court officials.

Regardless of whether it is useful or not, at least we must try our best to compete with Lu Bu’s army for the moral high ground!
He then issued an edict to send him to Liu Zhang in Yizhou, appointing him as the governor and asking him to assist Liu Mao wholeheartedly.

And recognize Liu Mao's orthodox status as the governor of Yizhou!
After Liu Zhang received the imperial edict, the aristocratic families behind him had no choice but to obey orders and handed over all military power to Liu Mao.

Yizhou, which was originally in chaos, gradually became stable and strong!

Liu Xie finally issued three secret decrees, which were sent to Liu Bei, Liu Mao and Shi Xie respectively, inviting them to join forces to fight against Lu Bu.

At that time, all the territories occupied can belong to them!
Liu Bei and Liu Mao both replied in agreement, but Shi Xie of Jiaozhou never responded.

Liu Xie could also understand this.

After all, Lu Bu's army never attacked Jiaozhou.

In the absence of any previous conflict, Shi Xie naturally did not want to get involved in this melee...

While Liu Xie was secretly making these arrangements, Lu Bu had already returned to Lujiang from Hanzhong.

He also sent tens of thousands of troops to Chenliu and Yingchuan counties to prevent the enemy from launching a sudden attack.

After completely breaking up with Liu Xie, Lu Bu felt a lot more relieved.

However, his attitude towards Liu Xie himself will not change.

If he really catches the other person in the future, he will never kill him.

He will give the other party the best treatment to repay the kindness the other party gave him in the past.

However, in the various battles before this, he would never hold back!

Faced with Liu Xie's accusations made known to the world, Lu Bu asked Xun You to write a manifesto to denounce the resistance.

The two armies were equally matched in this regard, so they simply didn't waste their efforts.

Later, Lu Bu heard that Liu Xie had ordered Liu Zhang to assist Liu Mao.

Liu Zhang also obeyed Liu Xie's order and handed over the military power to Liu Mao.

Knowing that Yizhou could no longer be attacked, Lu Bu asked Zhang Liao to reorganize the army and not attack Yizhou for the time being.

Back then, Zhuge Liang was able to use the power of one state to fight against the power of nine states of Cao Wei, and he could even take the initiative to launch a northern expedition.

It can be seen that Yizhou, as the largest state in terms of area and with its natural mountainous terrain, has a rich cultural heritage.

The most important thing is that Lu Bu smelled a hint of conspiracy from Liu Xie's actions!

He knew very well that at this stage it was better to defend than to attack.

Before we knew it, it was already December.

That day, Lu Bu was watching Huang Yueying breastfeeding her son in the room.

At this moment, Dong Bai's tender voice suddenly came from outside the door:

"Master, this is Wang Lang, the bookkeeper, asking to see you!"
