Li Li was not surprised by this, and asked in a deep voice: "Li still has something unclear, please Meng De do not hesitate to give advice." ”

Cao Cao grinned indifferently and said: "Cao Mou has known the general for many years, and he has been together day and night for more than 20 days before, so Cao Mou saw off the general this time." If the general has any doubts, he may wish to speak bluntly, Cao Mou must know everything and say everything, so that the general will leave without regrets and leave with peace of mind. As he spoke, Cao Cao's face inadvertently showed a sneer, as if he was a victor.

Li Li turned a blind eye to Cao Caozhi's complacent posture, and asked in a deep voice: "Today's situation is perfect, I don't know who made it?" ”

"Hahaha!" Cao Cao laughed loudly when he heard this, and said loudly: "General Bulao asked, isn't it Cao!" ”

"Oh? Meng De actually had such a scheme, which surprised Li! Li Li was surprised.

Cao Cao restrained his laughter and said in a deep voice: "Is it an accident? The general has forgotten, I wonder if the general still remembers the battle of Feiyundu? That battle is so similar to the scene in front of you, closing the door and beating dogs, and catching turtles in urns. The general has been fighting on the battlefield for many years, doesn't he hear that the stones of other mountains can attack jade? When he said these words in public, Cao Cao really raised his eyebrows, and his heart was extremely comfortable and complacent.

Over the years, he Cao Cao has fought with Li Li many times, but he has been repeatedly defeated by Li Li, and he has never taken advantage of it. Especially the Battle of Feiyundu, which was the biggest crisis Cao Cao encountered since he raised his army, and the entire army of 60,000 cavalry was annihilated, so that he himself almost died in the barren valley, and there was no place to bury. Fortunately, the heavens did not destroy Cao, and he finally escaped. This is the opportunity to be ashamed today.

After the Sili War, Cao Cao learned from the pain and learned a lesson. Light yì no longer competes with Li Li. At the same time, afterwards, he repeatedly pondered the beginning and end of the battle of Feiyundu, and gradually cleared the mystery and found the truth of the matter. It was concluded that it was a sudden encounter. Li Li was purely a blind cat who bumped into a dead mouse, and accidentally discovered the hiding place of Cao Cao and the 60,000 Qingzhou army, and immediately surrounded him back and forth. Trying to annihilate him in the barren valley.

Although the Battle of Feiyundu was an unexpected encounter, Cao Cao did not believe that the fiasco was entirely accidental or accidental. He knew that there were no pure accidents in this world. There must be a hidden underlying cause behind many seemingly accidental events, just like the battle of Feiyundu.

In that battle, if the Xiliang army under Li Li was not alert enough, its scouts would not be effective. It was categorically impossible to find him, Cao Cao and the 60,000 army lurking in the valley. Other words. If Li Li had hesitated a little after learning that there was an ambush in Feiyundu, and had not immediately divided his troops to intercept him, then even if his Cao Cao's army of 60,000 would still be defeated, it would not have been wiped out, and even endangered his Cao Cao's life. Therefore, the seemingly accidental battle of Feiyundu actually hides many inevitable factors, and it is precisely the small details of these inevitabilities that are most easily overlooked. buried 60,000 of his elite soldiers and horses, and also took the lives of his eldest son Cao Ang and nephew Cao Anmin for this.

The Battle of Feiyundu was a tragic experience that Cao Cao could never forget. It is also a scar that will never heal. He can forget the arduous process of his wolf bèi's escape, or he can ignore the humiliation of Cao Hong, Cao Zhen and Yu Ban, who defected to the enemy, and others were defeated and captured, and even never mention the 60,000 soldiers who were wiped out, but he will never forget the tragic death of his eldest son Cao Ang, who he loved most and had high hopes for.

"I'd rather bear others than others", this is Cao Cao's self-deception after killing Lu Bohao's family by mistake. In fact, he regretted it at the time, but he did not want to admit it, and he was stubborn, believing that there was nothing wrong with strangling the potential danger in the cradle. Prevention is better than prevention, what is wrong? It was because he resolutely refused to admit his mistakes and said "I'd rather bear others than others", which was actually just a self-comfort. However, it was such a sentence that had a great impact on Cao Cao and invisibly became his criterion for dealing with people. Anyone but himself can calculate, anyone can give up, and will do whatever it takes to achieve the end.

In order to ambush Li Li in one fell swoop, Cao Cao and Yuan Shao discussed for three days and three nights, and finally formulated the plan of "inviting the king into the urn". And this plan comes from Cao Cao's personal experience of the battle of Feiyundu, although the methods are slightly different, but there are similarities, when the whole plan is presented, it is the same as the battle of Feiyundu. In addition, in the process of implementing this plan, Cao Cao once again performed a drama of "I'd rather bear others than others", and lured Li Li to plan at the cost of losing 50,000 elite soldiers.

As a result, Cao Cao succeeded.

Therefore, in front of Li Li, he now reveals to the public the brilliant plan that he has painstakingly pondered for four years, and this sense of accomplishment makes him more satisfied than ever. Therefore, he is fully qualified to be proud, has reason to be excited, and there is no need to hide his victorious posture, because Li Li at this moment is like "Cao Cao" who was trapped in the Feiyundu Valley back then, isolated and helpless, and it is impossible to escape. And this qiē is his masterpiece of Cao Cao.

In the previous battles, he didn't take advantage of Li Li's hands, not even a draw, and every time he returned with a disgraced defeat. However, he Cao Cao can afford to lose, and he doesn't care if he loses repeatedly in the hands of Li Li, he only needs to win once after repeated defeats. And this only one victory is just around the corner. Li Li had won many times before, but those victories were all in the past, and now he Cao Cao only needed one victory, so that Li Li could never turn over and be buried here forever!

?????? Condescendingly, Li Li could clearly see the smug look on Cao Cao's face when he stood on the tower of the palace gate, saw his arrogant victorious posture, and even felt Cao Cao's great sense of satisfaction and accomplishment at this time.

Although Li Li didn't like to see Cao Cao's raised eyebrows, he had to admit that he really lost the battle of Yecheng. And it was an unprecedented fiasco, which made it difficult for him to protect himself, and it also affected hundreds of thousands of Xiliang iron horsemen in and outside the city.

As Cao Cao said, at this moment, he Li Li is like Cao Cao who was trapped in the Feiyundu Valley in the past, facing enemies on all sides and unable to fly. However, Li Li did not agree with Cao Cao's statement, to be precise, he knew very well why he was defeated this time, and he was not defeated by Cao Cao. Instead, he was defeated by Yuan Shao, who was already lying in the coffin.

In fact, no matter how much Cao Cao paid for casualties, Li Li would not believe him. even always wanted to find an opportunity to get rid of Cao Cao. In that case, why did Li Li fall for the scheme? This is because Li Li never dreamed that Yuan Shao would give Jizhou to Cao Cao, and fully cooperate with Cao Cao to set up an ambush in advance, and then earn him Li Li's army to enter the city.

Li Li once thought that Yuan Shao and Cao Cao might secretly join forces, so he has always been wary of Cao Cao and mobilized troops and horses to be ready at all times. But to Li Li's surprise, the real danger did not come from Cao Cao. Not to mention that he was from outside the city, but Yuan Shao, who was dying in the city. Or rather, the reason why he lost this time. It was because he was ruthlessly calculated by Yuan Shao, a dying person.

Yuan Shao had never defeated Li Li when he was alive, not only did he lose repeatedly, but he lost badly, but he won once when his life was about to end. Other words. Li Li, who was invincible in a hundred battles, was calculated by the dead this time. He underestimated Yuan Shao's courage and mind. So much so that he was always guarding against Cao Cao, but he didn't take Yuan Shao in his eyes at all. Outcome?????? Although Yuan Shao was dead, he won the last battle of his life after his death.

This is the terrible thing about the princes of the late Han Dynasty.

Although Li Li has the memory of later generations, he can anticipate the enemy in everything and seize the opportunity, so as to be invincible at the beginning of the war. However, this prophetic afterlife memory is not omnipotent after all, and a single mistake can make him fall into the abyss of no return, and completely lose the qiē he got before. Even life-threatening.

He thought that he could take the lead, but he didn't know that it was because of his Li Li's appearance and rapid rise. It invisibly changed the fate of many people, especially the princes of the towns he thought he knew well. When the shape of these princes changed, the opponents they were always on guard against also changed, and the opponents changed, and the war and tactical strategies that followed must also change. This has led to a series of great changes, all of which have been detached from the historical trajectory and become unrecognizable, thus making the situation in the world confusing and unpredictable.

Li Li knew that this change was inevitable, but he thought that after he became the most powerful prince in the world, he would be able to control the situation in the world, and he could completely control it in his hands according to his own will, ensuring that he would always be invincible. But he forgot that although the situation can be controlled by the strong, the hearts of the people are not controlled. As the situation changed, the princes were forced to change their original intentions and goals in order to adapt to the changes and finally achieve the results they wanted.

In fact, Li Li never despised any of the princes, and was very careful in every battle, striving to be meticulous and cautious, so as not to leave the slightest opportunity for the enemy. The same is true of Yuan Shao in Jizhou. But he still despised Yuan Shao a little, thinking that Yuan Shao was already a caged bird, even if he had the ability to reach the sky, it would be useless, and he still couldn't change the fate of defeat. Unexpectedly, it was this contempt that made him suffer the first defeat since the conquest, and the defeat was very complete, not only was the hundreds of thousands of Xiliang Iron Cavalry in danger, but even he himself was trapped in the city, and his life and death were unpredictable.

??????“ If the general has nothing to say, then Cao will not accompany him. There are many divergent roads on the Huangquan Road, and the general will go all the way! ”

Just when Li Li lowered his head and introspected, Cao Cao's voice came again, prompting Li Li to come back to his senses when he heard the voice, looked down at Cao Cao with cold eyes, and said in a deep voice: "Meng De must not get carried away, don't you forget who gave this qiē to whom?" Yuan Benchu's bones are not cold, and he is in the palace at the moment, can Meng De turn a deaf ear with peace of mind? If Li is not mistaken, these soldiers in front of him and the tens of thousands of troops besieging the mansion around him should be soldiers and horses under Yuan Benchu's command, right? Now that Yuan Shao is dead, and you Cao Cao didn't even ask, how can such a cold and ruthless person serve the public, and who is not chilled by the more than 100,000 soldiers who worked hard for you? ”

"Ugh!" Cao Cao heard the change in color, glared at Li Li angrily, but out of the corner of his eye, he was observing the expressions of the soldiers on both sides, but he saw that they were all bowing their heads and showing shame, as if they were bewitched by Li Li, and couldn't help but miss the old master.

Seeing this, Cao Cao suddenly felt that something was wrong, and scolded angrily: "Li Thief's demon words confuse the public, what do you want? Now that the original brother has returned to heaven, won't you let go of his corpse? "This is the first complaint of the out-and-out wicked. Cao Cao already had a premonition that Li Li was trying to use Yuan Shao's corpse to blackmail him, so he simply made his words clear and preemptively bit Li Li first, so that Li Li broke off his mind of threatening Yuan Shao's corpse as soon as possible.

"Hahaha!" Seeing that Cao Cao was annoyed and angry, Li Li laughed loudly and said loudly: "Cao Mengde should not be jealous of the belly of a gentleman with the heart of a villain, although Li is under siege today, he still disdains to do this thing!" But it is still unknown whether you Cao Cao will do this? Don't think that your calculations can hide from the world, what are you thinking at the moment, Li knows everything about it.

The reason why you didn't mention Yuan Shao just now was because you wanted to set fire to the entire mansion. So you don't dare to mention Yuan Shao at all, lest hundreds of thousands of Yuan soldiers know that Yuan Shao's coffin is in the palace at the moment, so they don't want to set fire to this mansion. It's because you deliberately avoid talking about it, and then pretend not to know about it afterwards, so you can't do it. Cao Mengde, Li didn't wronged you, right? ”

Before the words fell, before Cao Cao could speak, Li Li shouted violently: "Such a treacherous person pretends to be a benevolent and righteous person, Li is deeply ashamed, and feels sorry for these soldiers of the Yuan army who worked for you!" Wait and open your eyes and take a good look, what a despicable person standing before you, such a ruthless and unrighteous mediocre lord, are you willing to follow him, are you blind?

Hehehe, Yuan Benchu's first heroic name will be in your hands today, even if he is dead, he will end up with no bones! The huge Jizhou was given away, but after his death, he was avenged by the generals, set fire to the corpses, and scattered the ashes. Alas, alas?????? It's not worth it! While speaking, Li Li looked up to the sky and sighed, his voice was full of emotion, as if he was the embodiment of justice, for Yuan Shao and the tens of thousands of Yuan soldiers in front of him, he openly denounced Cao Cao, and denounced him as incomplete, useless, Huo Ran is the most ruthless, unrighteous and shameless despicable person in the world.

Obviously, it is a matter of his own life, and Li Li has also let it go this time. Now that he was framed by Yuan Shao and Cao Cao, he was besieged and his life was not guaranteed, so he no longer had any scruples, and he fought back by unscrupulous means, and resolutely decided to return an eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth. Since Yuan Shao was so generous that he gave the huge Jizhou to Cao Cao, he always had to pay it back when he came out; Cao Cao won Jizhou for nothing, can he still abandon Yuan Shao's corpse?

It was Li Li who kept saying that he disdained to blackmail Cao Cao, but in fact, he still used Yuan Shao's coffin as a hostage to coerce Cao Cao not to set fire to the palace. If Cao Cao insisted on going his own way and insisted on setting fire to Yuan Shao's mansion, it would undoubtedly confirm Li Li's words just now, and confirm the notoriety of being ruthless and unrighteous and taking revenge. In this way, how did Cao Cao raise Jizhou, how could he subdue the Jizhou army, and how did he win the support of the people of Jizhou? It must be known that this era pays attention to the three outlines and five constants, benevolence, righteousness, etiquette, wisdom and faith, and obeys the principle that death is great, and burial is peace, and there is no cremation at all.

Obviously, what Li Li was most worried about at the moment was that Cao Cao ordered the army to set fire to the palace. It is important to know that more than eighty percent of the mansions or palaces and even all houses are made of wood, and arson (also called water walking) is the most taboo. Just like the huge palace of Li Litun's army, once it is set on fire from all sides, it does not take half a day to burn it down. At that time, Li Li and his more than 20,000 soldiers and horses will be buried in the sea of fire in addition to desperately breaking through, and there is no possibility of retreating. In the past, the Luoyang Palace was burned down in this way. At first, it was just the palace that caught fire, then it burned more and more, and then spread throughout the city, and the fire burned for three days and three nights, and finally turned a centuries-old imperial capital into ruins.

Therefore, Li Li publicly exposed Cao Cao's sinister intentions, and wantonly bewitched the soldiers of the Yuan army who had just been attached to Cao Cao, thus forcing Cao Cao into a corner. Li Li saw that Cao Cao had just taken over the Jizhou Army, the people's hearts were fluctuating, the foundation was unstable, and he had received Yuan Shao's great favor. Therefore, Cao Cao has no way to retreat at the moment, and he has to agree if he doesn't agree.

In fact, as Li Li expected, Cao Cao could only compromise temporarily when he was forced to do so, and he agreed to it in public, so as to calm the army's heart, and then think about it in the long run.
