Three Kingdoms New Emperor

Chapter 469 I lie to others, can it be called a lie?

For Liu Bei, his most ideal situation is that the Han Dynasty, Yuan Shaohe and Meimei are all on the same level as the couple.As a result, he can hold Yuan Shao in the north with one hand, and invite the orthodoxy of the Han Dynasty with the other, and safely and securely under the two protective covers, he can make the three-acre land in Xuzhou his own.

This kind of ideal situation is just like a woman who has a rich and handsome boyfriend on the one hand, and a blue-faced spare tire who works hard and is always on call. Life is boundless joy.It's a pity that the reason why Gao Fushuai and the spare tire are good to the goddess is for the same purpose.

In the current situation, it is clear that Gao Fushuai and Lan Yan accidentally learned of each other's existence and forced the goddess to choose one of them.

The pain of this choice is simply heart-piercing for Liu Bei.Therefore, at this moment, his eyes became very melancholy and sad.

Liu Xie glanced at Liu Bei, pretending not to see Liu Bei's heartbroken heart, but said with a serious face: "Although Zhengfang's plan is good, it seems like water without a source... the Baibo bandits in Bingzhou, northern Guanzhong From now on, this time colluding with the Xiongnu to go south, the intention is wrong, the former doctor Zhong sent someone to send a letter from Taiwei Magong, and mobilized the northern army to stop the enemy, Chang'an is really at a loss now."

"This matter must have been done by the rebellious minister Yuan Shao!" At this time, Zhao Yun also saw it.The white wave thieves and those clowns who don't jump in the morning and don't jump in the evening, but they come back again at this critical period, it is clear that Yuan Shao is behind the scenes.

However, everyone present had to admit that the few moves Yuan Shaochuping made in the second year were very clever: deploying troops to Neihuang and Lu counties, but without using real swords and guns to achieve strategic containment At the same time, with just one sentence to convey, the Baibo thief thought he had a backer, and he became Yuan Shao's spearman.It can be said that Yuan Shao grasped the half-year-planned strategy of the Han Dynasty in his hands almost without a single soldier.

This is the ability of the big fat man in troubled times. Just by moving his words and hands and feet, he can change the general situation of the world.Although Liu Xie is considered a little fat man now, but after being attacked by Yuan Shao, whether he can make a comeback depends on whether he has a unique move.

That trick is naturally here in Xuzhou.

Therefore, Liu Xie didn't say any more, but frowned again, pretending to watch the simulation map of the sand table.The rest of Li Yan and Sima Yi were also like this, but Zhao Yun looked at Liu Bei at this time, his eyes were full of indescribable worry.

Although he has decided to fight for Liu Xie, he does not want to hear Liu Bei say ambiguous words at this time.After all, even if he can't be master and servant, he still has a little respect for Liu Bei from the bottom of his heart.

That kind of respect may have started when he heard that Liu Bei led the soldiers of Zhuojun into troubled times.

That kind of respect may also be Xuzhou where Zhao Yun learned that Liu Bei stepped into hell on earth without hesitation.

That kind of respect is the righteousness in the world that Liu Bei can't cover up no matter how despicable political slanders are used!
And Liu Bei naturally did not disappoint Zhao Yun.Just when the silent air began to flow strangely in the lobby, his eyes no longer looked sad, but bowed down resolutely, and said with emotion: "Your Majesty, your incompetence has caused your Majesty to be trapped in Xuzhou. Yuan Shao is a traitor, doing all kinds of things to pretend to be a courtier , is a traitor of a great man, I swear here that I will be at the mercy of this beast!"

"Excellent! I'm so moved by the emperor's uncle's words!" Liu Xie was suddenly moved, and immediately lifted Liu Bei gently.In this era, taking an oath is a very solemn thing. People in the Han Dynasty respected promises and despised death.

What's more, this time Liu Bei still swears in front of others, and the strength is almost stronger than the signature and handprint of later generations.Especially now that he is a shepherd of a state, if he breaks his oath, even if he doesn't fall to the point where everyone shouts and beats him, he will at least be separated up and down, making it difficult for him to move forward.

However, Liu Xie's gratitude to Liu Bei ends here.After all, according to conspiracy theory, Liu Bei's choice is in the best interest of his current interests.

He could naturally see that the Han Dynasty and Yuan Shao had the same idea for Xuzhou.But the problem is that the Han Dynasty is recognized by the world after all, but now Yuan Shao seems to be going further and further on the road of rebelling against his ministers.Liu Beiruo still wants to be justified, and choosing the Han Dynasty is a wise choice that can be made without thinking.

Secondly, the methods of the Han Dynasty are also much gentler and more dedicated than Yuan Shao, and they can benefit Liu Bei much more than Yuan Shao.At least, it was Liu Xie who gave him Liu Bei's lofty and crucial status as "Uncle Liu Huang". It was also Liu Xie who paved the way for Liu Bei everywhere in Xuzhou.As for Yuan Shao, apart from sending troops once, there is no further support.

The most important point is that the power of the Han Dynasty is a little far away from Xuzhou.Located in the south of Yuan Shao, Liu Bei saw that he might be on the border with Yuan Shao's forces. Although that would keep him safe in the north, but in the future, whatever Yuan Shao did in the future, Liu Bei might cooperate with him.With such constraints, Liu Bei will become Yuan Shao's vassal. Liu Bei absolutely does not want to see such a situation.

Therefore, for some plays, enough is enough to stop.There are some things that don't need to be said, everyone follows the script so that we can meet again.

After this scene is over, the next step is how to deal with Yuan Shao.Obviously, it is impossible for Liu Xie to stay in Xuzhou for too long.Therefore, apart from the remaining things that have to be handled by time, the most urgent issue of military power remains.The first to bear the brunt of the issue of military power is the Danyang army under Cao Bao.

After a winter's rest, Liu Bei's power naturally recovered, except for the three thousand Danyang soldiers who did not let go.Liu Bei used means to take the military power of some counties and national soldiers in his hands.Roughly speaking, there are about 1 soldiers. These soldiers are definitely not enough for expeditions to others.However, if it is used to protect Xuzhou itself, it is estimated that in a relatively stable environment, it should be enough to suppress the rebellion and attack some small and small thieves.

However, the 6000 Danyang soldiers in the hands of Comrade Cao Bao are still a big threat to Liu Bei.Moreover, Comrade Cao Bao's current attitude is also very secretive. He doesn't fight hard, and he doesn't give in to you. If he doesn't accept such softness, Liu Bei really doesn't want to attack Cao Bao when he is eating away Xuzhou's power.

If there is still time, if Liu Xie can wait until Liu Bei fully accepts Xuzhou's heart, then Cao Bao will become a piece of meat under the general trend, and it will not be a problem no matter how Liu Bei grills it.However, time is not on Liu Xie's side.

"At the end of February at the latest, I will definitely leave Xuzhou, go north to join Xun You and Jia Xu, and fight Cao Cao in Yanzhou." There is no basis for setting this time point.At the end of February, everything basically recovered, and it was already suitable for fighting with weapons and iron halberds.

"But..." Liu Bei looked a little troubled, and frowned, "If it's the end of February, I'm afraid that's the time to see the results. If you want to subdue Cao Bao and others, it may not be the best time."

Winter is not the time for large-scale construction, so what Liu Bei does at this time is more about rectifying the administration of officials.We can really see whether his government orders can be communicated up and down in Xuzhou until the time of spring plowing. At that time, it was a busy year. Who really obeyed and followed Liu Bei's orders, who still waited and watched, and who had the heart to fight to the end, It is clear at a glance.In other words, that was the critical time when Liu Bei had a carrot in one hand and a stick in the other.

At that time, Liu Bei didn't dare to do anything to Cao Bao if he didn't take care of these things.In case Cao Bao's mutiny is aroused and the counties respond, Liu Bei may not even have the place to cry.

However, Liu Xie seemed to have made up his mind when he said 'the end of February', and replied calmly: "Fortune and misfortune depend on each other, and the world is impermanent. As long as you follow the general trend, who says that disaster can't be a good thing? Similarly, Cao Bao is only relying on his Danyang soldiers, who can say for sure, it is not Cao Bao's disaster?"

"What does Your Majesty mean?..." Liu Bei was at a loss when he heard the words, and he didn't know what Liu Xie really wanted to do.

"Uncle Huang, don't worry, just follow the rules." Liu Xie smiled lightly again, but still couldn't help ticking Liu Bei's curiosity: "Some things may be despicable and shameless for others to do, but I am Son of Heaven, who dares to say that I am wrong?"

"Your Majesty, aren't you planning to lie to Cao Bao?" Zhang Fei became smarter now, and he hit the point.

But Liu Xi laughed as if he was insane, and couldn't help but proudly said: "Scholar's business, can it be called stealing? I cheat, can it be called cheating?"
