Everyone knows how powerful Cao Cao is.
Using troops is like the reincarnation of Sun Wu!
The herdsmen are holding the emperor hostage and disobeying him!
Talent, the integrity of the three Jian'an Cao men will last forever!
Even Liu Bei had to admit that there was indeed a big gap between himself and Cao Cao.
Except for his status as a Han clan clan member, Liu Bei had no advantage over Cao Cao.
"Mang'er...can such a powerful Cao Cao not be stronger than three generations?"
"Yes, even if Cao Cao usurps the throne, he will never survive three generations!"
As soon as Liu Mang said this, he immediately became the focus of everyone.
"joke!"
Liu Feng said disdainfully: "The Cao thief is now so powerful that he controls half of my Han Dynasty! How can it last for three generations?"
Liu Bei waved his hand, indicating that Liu Feng should not speak, he wanted to listen to the advice of the traitor.
Liu Mang was not afraid at all. He stood up, looked at everyone, and started talking.
"Cao Cao has always had a headache..."
"Eldest nephew, I know!"
Zhang Fei rushed to answer: "Big brother is the existence that gives Cao Cao the most headache!"
Hearing that his third brother was giving him face like this, Liu Bei couldn't help but smile, hiding his merit and fame.
Who is the rival of the world's heroes? Cao Liu!
He and Cao Cao are destined rivals!
"No! Third uncle, my father is nothing compared to the real problems Cao Cao has to face!"
"You...you rebellious son!"
Liu Mang directly ignored his father's incompetent rage and continued: "Cao Cao's employees have actually been focusing on how to suppress the local aristocratic families and prevent the Cao family's regime from falling apart!"
Hearing this, Zhuge Liang was thoughtful, while Pang Tong and Xu Shu also frowned and remained silent.
"Cao Cao got his start thanks to the Yingchuan faction!"
"Xun Yu, Xun You, Guo Jia, Xi Zhicai and others are all representatives of the Yingchuan gentry!"
"I wonder if you have noticed that in order to prevent the gentry from gaining power, Cao Cao placed all the army in the hands of Cao's relatives."
As soon as Liu Mang said this, Guan Yu, who had been in Cao Ying, had the most say in this matter.
"What Manger said is true!"
Guan Yu nodded and said: "Zhang Liao, Zhang Jia, Xu Huang, Le Jin, Yu Jin! Cao Ying's good generals must be these five sons."
"However, the generals leading the army are Xiahou Dun, Xiahou Yuan, Cao Hong and others!"
Everyone nodded, and then looked at Guan Yu, Zhang Fei and Zhao Yun. These three people can be regarded as Liu Bei's sworn brothers, and they can also be regarded as the clan members of Liu Bei's regime in a sense.
"As my second uncle said, the Cao family is now very strong."
"As for the next generation, there are still Cao Zhen, Cao Xiu and other Cao family's thousand-mile horses."
"But by the third generation, the Cao family will be in a dilemma of talent decline!"
Liu Mang smiled and said: "On the contrary, it is a wealthy family. They have been inherited for hundreds of years and have enough foundation!"
"As long as the Cao family falls, the next era will be an era of arrogance and extravagance for the Gongun princes!"
After hearing this, Liu Bei couldn't help but fell into deep thought, because his men were also composed of complex ingredients.
The clan faction is headed by three sworn brothers, Guan Yu, Zhang Fei and Zhao Yun.
The maternal relatives are Mi Zhu and Mi Fang.
The elder faction includes Jian Yong, Sun Qian and others.
As for Zhuge Liang, Pang Tong and Xu Shu, all three of them represent the Jingzhou faction and the Jingzhou gentry!
After hearing what Nizi said, Liu Bei was also worried that if the Jingzhou gentry became bigger and stronger, they would eat into the power of the clan in the future.
"Haha! Dear brother, Cao Cao is not a fool. How could he sit idly by and do nothing?"
Liu Feng said disdainfully: "He has countless advisers, and he will eventually find a way!"
Countless advisers?
Liu Mang smiled and said: "My father now owns Wolong, Fengxiao and Xuanwu. In fact, Cao Cao also has four mythical beasts!"
oh?
The competitive spirit of Zhuge Liang, Pang Tong, and Xu Shu was aroused by Liu Mang. They wanted to hear what kind of mythical beasts Cao Cao had under his command!
"The Hannibal of the Cao family captured Cheng Yu! We took a brief trip to this county and provided three days of food, mixed with human breasts!"
Translated, Cheng Yu made the people in this county into preserved meat and used it to make military rations!
After hearing this, the generals felt sick and wanted to vomit!
"Liu Ye, the great filial son of the Han Dynasty! Serves the traitor Cao and ignores the emperor. Everyone will find him and punish him!"
Liu Bei clenched his fists tightly. They were both members of the Han clan. For the sake of his own glory and wealth, Liu Ye completely forgot about his clan identity!
"Jia Xu, the true Satan of Chang'an! He started the Li Guo Rebellion and left no trace of the people of Chang'an!"
Zhuge Liang, Pang Tong and Xu Shu had disdain in their eyes. They looked down upon Jia Xu!
He has learned a lot of skills, but he only knows how to harm the people!
"Of course, there is also Pinocchio Zhongda in Luoshui! You just need to remember that there is not a word of truth in Sima Old Dog's mouth!"
Sima Yi swore at Luo Shui, but ended up farting, which is similar to Pinocchio!
"Hannibal eats people, Satan kills people, Liu Ye is unfilial, and Pinocchio lies all the time!"
Liu Mang smiled and said: "With such a think tank, how can Cao Cao solve the problem?"
Liu Feng was so ashamed that he didn't expect Liu Mang to be very knowledgeable about Cao Cao's men.
"Brother Xian! What does this have to do with your treatment of wounded soldiers?"
"In order to treat them, we still have to spend a lot of money and food!"
"It's better to recruit troops directly!"
Liu Feng returned to the original topic and put forward his own opinion: "If a veteran is missing arms and legs and cannot go to the battlefield, there is no need for treatment at all!"
wrong!
Liu Mang objected: "What a big mistake! Liu Feng, Liu Feng, maybe you haven't realized the problem yet?"
Liu Feng looked left and right, none of the three military advisors spoke, and the other generals were thoughtful.
"Feng'er, Mang'er is right! Cao Cao, Sun Quan, and we all face the problem of how to deal with the nobles."
Liu Bei pointed out the problem pointedly.
"As a father, I have never had the support of the noble clan. How can these arrogant guys think so highly of me, a down-and-out clan member who weaves mats and sells shoes?"
"But as Man'er said, without their support, there would be no way to obtain military rations and talents!"
"If I occupy Yizhou or Jiaozhou in the future, my father will still have to face such difficulties!"
Zhuge Liang shook his feather fan lightly. Strictly speaking, the Zhuge family was no longer considered a noble clan and their strength was too weak.
The Jingzhou nobles who have now defected to Liu Bei include the Pang family represented by Pang Tong, and the Ma family represented by Ma Liang and Ma Su.
"My dad is still smart!"
Liu Mang gave a thumbs up and asked with a smile: "May I ask you, who do you need to govern the world?"
Liu Bei stood up, bowed to the three military advisors and said, "Of course he is as talented as these three gentlemen!"
Guan Yu narrowed his eyes and didn't buy it.
Zhang Fei nodded in agreement, while Zhao Yun was thoughtful and felt something was wrong.
"No!"
Liu Mang smiled and said: "The three gentlemen are amazingly talented, but they are not policy executors!"
"To govern the world, we need small officials!"
"Where do most of the petty officials come from? They are descendants of scholarly families!"
"Poor people don't even have the right to read, so you still expect them to be officials?"
Liu Bei's eyes shone, and then he said: "Mang'er, you can make those injured veterans become herders' clerks in the future!"
"In this way, the father can get rid of the monopoly of the aristocratic family on the grassroots officials!"
A word awakens the dreamer, and all the generals suddenly realize!
