Who is the REAL Fa Zheng?

This video will explore the life of Fa Zheng with information taken from the Records of the Three Kingdoms.

"Fa Zheng clearly foresaw success and failure. Therefore, he had talent for all sort of unusual tactics and strategies. However, he was not known to be of good moral character. In comparison with officials from Wei, if Pang Tong was akin to Xun Yu and Xun You then Fa Zheng should be comparable to Cheng Yu and Guo Jia."
