The Battle of Guandu ended with the annihilation of Yuan Shao's entire army and Cao Cao's unification of the entire north.

Because everything came so fast, that Liu Biao and Liu Zhang didn't react. Jiangdong didn't react, after Sun Ce killed Yu Ji, he was haunted by Yu Ji's ghost all day long, he couldn't do anything, and he was in no mood to care about Cao Cao at all.

He was quite concerned about Li He, because he wanted to find Li He to do something for him to drive away Yu Ji's unjust soul.

But Li He wouldn't do it for him at all, not to mention that Sun Ce was destined to die, just the matter of him killing Yu Ji was against the entire Daomen and even the cultivation world, who would really help him?

Anyway, Li He won't go, even if he can intercept a lot of luck, he won't do it.

"Originally, we occupied Yanzhou, Xuzhou, Yuzhou, and now we have Qingzhou, Youzhou and other places, and we have unified the entire north, even if Liu Biao and Sun Quan join forces, I'm afraid they are not my opponents of Cao Cao!" On the way back to the court, Cao Cao said to Li He with a proud face.

Hearing this, Li He nodded and said, "In terms of military strength, we are indeed not afraid of anyone!" ”

Now that he has unified the north, as long as he digests a few states of Yuan Shao, Cao Cao can make up an army of seven or eight hundred thousand, plus a group of strategists and fierce generals, and his strength is really enough to top the other princes combined.

Don't look at Jingzhou, Yizhou, and Yangzhou are all so big, and in terms of population and strength, they don't have any advantage at all.

The Three Kingdoms era was not a later generation, and although the south was rich, it was not the most populous place.

"It's just that Zhuge Kongming made it difficult for me to sleep!" Cao Cao said: "In terms of mana, he is no less than you as the Taoist leader, and he is more proficient in arranging formations, and can directly use formations to kill enemies." In terms of strategy, he is the 'first person in the world' that you most admire, and his talent is rare in ancient and modern times, even though my military strength is nearly one million, I am also a little uneasy about him. ”

In front of Li He, he never concealed himself, and he would say it directly if he was worried.

Zhuge Liang's talent, is it as Li He said, the only one in the world, and even the best in ancient and modern times, he doesn't know, but he knows that Zhuge Liang will make Lu Bu embarrassed with a few stones, if it weren't for Li He, he would be as strong as the world's number one fierce general, and he would die there if he didn't do it.

What kind of strength is that?

"Zhuge Liang is indeed our great enemy, if we don't defeat him, there is no way to dominate the world." Li He said: "But if you want to defeat him by fighting, it is very difficult, and it is impossible to beat him with wit." The only way is to grow himself to a strong enough level, crush him with the general momentum, no matter how high his mana is, it is useless, and no matter how powerful his wisdom and strategy are, there is no chance to use it! ”

Hearing this, Cao Cao nodded and said, "The national teacher already has a plan in his heart?" ”

"Sort of!" Li He pondered for a moment and said: "First of all, in terms of troops, we must completely subdue Xiliang, break up and integrate Ma Teng's army into our own army, unify our thinking, and create a million elite soldiers that completely belong to Meng De!" ”

In this regard, Cao Cao smiled and said, "You are already doing this Dao Master, right?" ”

He still remembered that when Zhao Yun went to suppress Xiliang, Li He once gave him a bag and told him to act according to the strategy on the bag.

"It's doing, and it should be paying off right now." Li He said with a smile.

At the same time, Xiliang and Taishou Ma Teng were holding a wedding banquet.

For his daughter Ma Yunluo.

Just today, Ma Yunluo will marry Zhao Zilong, the famous "Invincible General of Changshan", the peerless general who once defeated Lu Bu three against three in front of the Tiger Prison Pass.

And the dowry is the entire Xiliang.

Why is this so?

Originally, it was destined that Zhao Yun's wife was Ma Chao's sister, the daughter of Xiliang Taishou Ma Teng, Li He pushed the boat down the river and turned into a You Fang Daoist to calculate a marriage for her, and she and Zhao Yun were fulfilled.

But at the same time, he also gave Zhao Yun an order to let him control Xiliang.

The steps are a bit complicated, but they are also very simple, nothing more than relying on courage to convince Ma Chao, and convincing Ma Teng with talent, and then pointing out the shortcomings of the two of them, lobbying, and successfully recovering Xiliang.

This occupies three points, one is the decline of Liu Bei's luck, which led to the loss of Ma Chao.

And Ma Teng was destined to vote for Cao Cao, no matter whether he was killed later or not, he was also ordered to belong to Cao Ying, and Xiliang would belong to Cao Cao.

In addition, with Zhao Yun's ability, it is not a problem to subdue a state.

Ma Chao even began to pay attention to the "Huaxia Tribulation" because of him, and even forgot that he also had some foreign blood...... In general, the right time, the right place, and the right people completely subdued Xiliang.

"Secondly, I also need a helper to fight with Zhuge Liang." Li He said.

Hearing this, Cao Cao immediately asked, "Who?" ”

"Contemporary Heavenly Master Zhang Lu, although he is also a prince, but in fact he does not have the heart to fight for hegemony, as long as Meng De allows him a position of 'state religion', I dare to guarantee that he will support you with all his heart!" Li He said.

Hearing this, Cao Cao's eyes lit up and said, "Just give him a false name, can you exchange him for the whole Hanzhong?" ”

"That's not a false name, that's luck." Li He said.

Soon after, armed with a copy of Cao Cao's handwriting, he drove to Zhang Lu.

is also a member of the Taoist sect, Zhang Lu is naturally very polite to Li He, not only good wine and good food hospitality, but also discuss practice with Li He, and even the Taoist method passed down by Zhang Tianshi is not privately hidden, which can be described as teaching each other.

Li He also did not have a private collection, except for the useless "Tianyan Dun One Sword" to Zhang Lu, he even taught the "Tianshu Dao Sutra" to Zhang Lu.

Outsiders may think that there will be a gateway between many sects of Taoism, but in fact, it is completely because outsiders do not understand Taoism and do not know that for them, the spread of the exercises is a good thing, not a bad thing.

Because preaching the Dharma is preaching, it is favor, and you can receive luck in return.

Of course, if the person who inherits the Fa does something bad, it will also be counted on the person who transmits the Fa, and this is the reason why "the Fa should not be passed on lightly."

"Zhang Tianshi, how do you think your Dao method compares to Dao Spirit Patriarch?" Li He looked for an opportunity to ask.

Hearing this, Zhang Lu naturally shook his head and said: "My grandfather is a pedantic man, and my descendants have not been able to compare with him. The Heavenly Master Dao is in my hands, and it is more ...... than in the hands of my grandfather."

Speaking of this, he sighed and said: "Alas, it's all caused by Zhang Jiao, there is a law and you don't need the right way, but you go to rebel, and you hurt the people in the world!" ”

Taoist priests can't be emperors, so Zhang Jiao's rebellion is destined to have no good results.

And after his defeat, there is no doubt that the whole world is suppressing the Daomen, and the Taoist priest has almost become synonymous with "demon". If it weren't for the fact that high-ranking officials and nobles still needed Taoist priests, and needed them to refine pills, medicines, and divination, I am afraid that Taoism would decline because of this.

Yu Ji, one of the three immortals in the late Han Dynasty, was beheaded by Sun Ce because of Zhang Jiao's pot.

The ability to pray for rain, the first concept given to others, is that it can be used to rebel.

"However, not everyone is disgusted with the Daomen, Cao Cao Cao Mengde has a special respect for my Daomen, and even wants to pass on the throne to his descendants after winning the world, and then cultivate with me himself!" Li He said, and directly took out Cao Cao's handwriting.

Then, there was no need to say more, Zhang Lu thought about it carefully and decided to take refuge.

In exchange for the status of the state religion in the land of Hanzhong, and in exchange for the long-term hegemony of the industry, it is a lucrative deal.

"I also make a promise to you, after I leave, I will confer the position of national teacher on the contemporary heavenly master!" Li He said.

Zhang Lu immediately thanked him.

So there is no doubt that he took the disciples of the world's Taoist sects and officially voted for Cao Cao.

However, the plan couldn't catch up with the changes, and originally planned to go back, acting and pretending to abolish the Han Emperor, so as to keep Guan Yu, but because of the appearance of Zhuge Liang, Li He and Cao Cao were worried, and simply abolished the Han Emperor.

This means that Cao Cao directly proclaimed himself emperor, and Li He also officially ascended to the position of national teacher.

Because of Yundao, his cultivation skyrocketed in a short period of time, reaching the same peak of entry as Zhuge Liang.

At the same time, on the other side, Zhuge Liang and Liu Bei contacted the princes, and together with Liu Biao, Sun Quan, and Liu Zhang, they formed a "Red Cliff Alliance" that was many times larger than in the original book, and used the Yangtze River as a base to prepare for the Northern Expedition to Cao Cao.

"Very good, come out in one go, just clean up together!" Cao Cao said, and directly gathered a large army to meet him.
