The book is picked up again.

"Hehehe......" After Li Zhi came outside, he couldn't help but chuckle.

Then he saw Cao Cao standing not far away, waiting for him with a smile on his face.

Seeing this, Li Zhi hurriedly took a few steps in front of Cao Cao, and said with a smile: "Congratulations to Brother Meng De's strength!" ”

"Joy and joy, isn't the virtuous brother who has made a fortune the same?"

"Hahaha......" After Li Zhi and Cao Cao congratulated each other for a while, they suddenly stopped talking, looked at each other, and then laughed at the same time.

They were so happy, they originally thought that these people from the family were all hard bones, and it was unlikely that they would exchange the interests of the family for their own lives.

But what they didn't expect was that they really thought too highly of these people!

Not only are these people not hard bones, but they are just a bunch of delicacies that can be eaten!

Whoever brings them to himself will be able to enjoy them to the fullest!

"Brother Xingzhi, if the family is almost wiped out by you today, do you have any plans in the future?" After laughing for a while, Cao Cao suddenly asked.

The reason why Cao Cao asked this was to test Li Zhi and see if he planned to continue to educate the world, or go to Xuzhou to follow him to educate the world while planning for him.

Although Li Zhi had agreed to him, he was afraid that Li Zhi would backtrack.

After all, suddenly receiving such a large number of talents and money, Li Zhi's power will inevitably skyrocket in a very short period of time.

Cao Cao was not afraid that Li Zhi, whose power had risen sharply, would leave him, but that Li Zhi couldn't help but speed up the pace of educating the world after seeing that his power had risen sharply.

At that time, Li Zhike would have no time to give advice to Cao Cao.

"......" After Li Zhi heard Cao Cao's words, there was a look of struggle on his face.

To be honest, he really wanted to take advantage of this opportunity to speed up the process of educating the world.

But after thinking about it for a while, he shook his head,

Because indoctrination of the world cannot be accomplished in a day or two.

Moreover, if Li Zhi planned to join Cao Cao's command, he must be very familiar with Cao Cao's subordinates, so as not to appear dirty in the future.

So Li Zhi felt that this was a good opportunity, a good opportunity to integrate into Cao Cao's command.

Thinking of this, Li Zhi no longer hesitated, raised his head, and said to Cao Cao with a firm face: "Brother Meng De, I have thought about it, and after this matter is over, I will make arrangements for it, and then follow Brother Meng De to Xuzhou." ”

"Xuzhou? No, no, no! After Cao Cao heard Li Zhi's words, he smiled mysteriously, shook his head and said, "I can't wait for Xuzhou, but go to Jizhou!" ”

"Jizhou?" After Li Zhi heard Cao Cao's words, he was stunned for a moment, and then immediately reacted, "What does Brother Meng De mean that Brother Meng De will use Jizhou as his governing place in the future?" ”

"That's right!" Hearing this, Cao Cao nodded

After that, he sighed and said: "If you weren't forced to be helpless, how could Brother Wei take Xuzhou as a place to govern?"

Although Xuzhou is rich, it is indeed the land of four wars.

Moreover, the most important thing is that the people of Xuzhou are mellow, and if it is in peacetime, it is indeed very suitable as a place of governance.

But at this time, it is a troubled time, and what is needed for my brother is a place where the people are strong?

Therefore, the elder brother planned to move the governance office to Jizhou.

Although Jizhou is not a strong people, it is much stronger than Xuzhou.

And most importantly, Jizhou is in the very center of our forces, which is very suitable for calling the shots. ”

"It's true" After Li Zhi heard Cao Cao's words, he thought for a while, then nodded, "Compared to Jizhou, Xuzhou is indeed a little remote, since this is the case, then move the administrative office to Jizhou." ”

After Cao Cao heard Li Zhidi's words, his face was very excited and excited.

Because Jizhou is fundamentally not Cao Cao's at all, but Li Zhi's!

At the beginning, the two of them discussed and ceded Qingzhou to Cao Cao while Li Zhi occupied Jizhou.

But now the situation is different, Cao Cao must take Jizhou into his hands.

Originally, he thought that he would have to spend more words, but he didn't expect Li Zhi to not care at all, and let Jizhou out according to his words.

However, he couldn't imagine that Li Zhi didn't think that Jizhou was his at all.

He felt that in the end, the whole world was Cao Cao's, so why did he occupy these states and counties?

Aren't you afraid of Cao Cao's suspicion?

Therefore, from the very beginning, Li Zhi was very tolerant except for educating the world.

Even if Cao Cao wanted his army, as long as it did not affect the matter of educating the world, he would not hesitate to hand it over.

After saying this, he spoke again: "Brother Meng De, do you think you will move the army into Jizhou together?" ”

Let's be honest. Li Zhi had long planned to reduce his army.

Because now most of the families in the world have been captured by him, and the remaining princes are only small roles, and they are not worthy of being compared with Cao Cao at all, although there is still a Dong Zhuo jumping up and down there, but ......

In Li Zhi's eyes, Dong Zhuo is just a clown at most!

Although he occupies Xiliang, if Li Zhizhen wants to do something to him, then he doesn't need to do it himself, just send a reliable general, you can send 100,000 troops, and you can knock down the entire Xiliang in a few months!

After looking around for a week, Li Zhi suddenly realized that they didn't have many enemies.

At the beginning, the reason why Li Zhi had so many troops was just to protect himself, for fear that others would sabotage his plan to educate the world.

And if there is no one who can threaten him today, he has so many troops, it is a bit annoying!

After all, even if it's Cao Cao

In generosity, it is impossible to tolerate a person who can threaten his rule to stand there in a dignified manner.

Therefore, Li Zhi made a plan, and after following Cao Cao to Jizhou, he immediately asked people to streamline the army, reducing the hundreds of thousands of troops to 100,000.

As for the rest of the people who were selected, he planned to train them and give them to Cao Cao as gifts.

On the one hand, to eliminate a hidden danger, on the other hand, Li Zhi planned to use this 100,000-strong army to open up Cao Cao's internal relations.

That's right, it's a bribe in disguise, bribing Cao Cao's subordinates!

Because if he joins Cao Cao's command now, it will be equivalent to a newcomer.

Those "old men" will definitely look at him a little unpleasantly.

After all, they had no idea what Li Zhi had done for Cao Cao.

If Cao Cao named Li Zhi a big official, those people would inevitably feel uncomfortable.

However, if he joined Cao Cao with hundreds of thousands of troops, no matter what official position Cao Cao gave him, no one else would say anything.

Because apart from the emperor, there is no official function comparable to hundreds of thousands of elite troops, especially in this troubled era!

After Cao Cao heard Li Zhi's words, his eyes lit up, and he said to Li Zhi with emotion: "Why should the virtuous brother of Xingzhi be like this?

Brother Wei has never doubted you about anything!

From the very beginning, you have been helping your brother everywhere, how can you be the kind of person who doubts your benefactor?! ”

After saying this, Cao Cao shook his head resolutely.

To be honest, he was very eager for those troops in Li Zhi's hands, but he couldn't ask for them!

Because he also has his own bottom line!

Li Zhi has a great favor to him, and he really doesn't want Li Zhi to hand over the army because he is afraid that he will be suspicious.

After Li Zhi heard Cao Cao's words, he shook his head and said calmly: "Brother Meng De doesn't need to excuse himself, he has already planned to dissipate the army in the future."

Moreover, he did not hand over all the troops to Brother Meng De, and planned to leave 100,000 elite troops to protect himself. ”

Speaking of this, after glancing at Cao Cao, he continued: "Of course, when the journey of indoctrination in the world is also completed, the whole army will be handed over. ”

That's right, Li Zhi told Cao Cao plainly, I kept an army of 100,000 just to guard against you?

If you don't object to my journey to educate the world, then when the world is peaceful, I will completely abandon the army.

But if you dare to stop me from educating the world, then don't blame my handsome army for attacking you!

"......" Cao Cao was silent for a while after hearing Li Zhi's words.

Then he raised his head, looked at Li Zhi sincerely, and said, "That's fine, but please rest assured, even if you die, your dream will never be ruined!" ”

Cao Cao's words are categorical and unquestionable!
