At this time, the princes did not say a word.

In fact, they didn't expect that Dong Zhuo would be so difficult to fight, although they captured the Tiger Prison Pass, but most of their respective forces were also lost, and if they continued to fight, even if they rescued the Son of Heaven, everyone's own strength would be lost and ruined.

Therefore, at this time, even Yuan Shao, who had a grudge against Dong Zhuo for killing his father, couldn't help but hesitate.

In this troubled world, once you fight your own family foundation cleanly, it means that you can be slaughtered by others, and you can talk about great ambitions.

Seeing this, Cao Cao felt sad in his heart, and laughed miserably in his heart: "Li Xuanji, if you don't deceive me, in the end, it really ended up like this." ”

At this moment, Cao Cao's heart was dead, and he glanced at Yuan Shao and the others one by one, his eyes full of disappointment and anger.

"Shaft, lack and conspiracy!"

Yuan Shao and the others were furious, but Cao Cao walked away.

…………

He returned to his tent.

Cao Cao said to Li Xiaodao with an angry face: "They don't want to go, so I will pursue Dong Zhuo alone." ”

Li Xiaodao's face was calm, and he said: "Before this, can you listen to the Xuanji's 'second argument' and make a decision." ”

After he joined Cao Cao's camp, he never offered advice to Cao Cao in the past few months, because he clearly knew this person's suspicious character, so he was always showing his value, and now he finally won Cao Cao's trust with his martial arts list and arguments.

Next, he is going to make a flat layout for Cao Cao by knowing the future trend.

However, all this depends on how Cao Cao decides at this time, after all, Cao Cao at this time is really still a person who is loyal to the country.

Hearing that the person in front of him was going to give him a "second argument", Cao Cao couldn't help but stare at it, Li Xiaodao's civil and military list had let him see Guan Yu, Dian Wei and Lu Bu, the first on the martial arts list, whose inhuman combat power, said when discussing the situation that the allied forces would undoubtedly lose this battle, and now it is true.

After Cao Cao heard this, he immediately temporarily pressed the mind of chasing and killing Dong Zhuo even if he was alone, and decided to listen to Li Xiaodao's advice first.

"Please sir teach me." Cao Cao stood in front of Li Xiaodao and gave a big gift with a sincere attitude.

Seeing this, Li Xiaodao nodded in his heart, what he wanted was the current effect, and the current Cao Cao finally trusted his ability.

So, Li Xiaodao took a sip of the glass of water in front of him, and then began to say: "I don't know what the general thinks of the world today?" ”

Cao Cao's eyes became complicated when he heard this, and he seemed to know Li Xiaodao's next words, and he asked tentatively: "Mr. is ......?"

Li Xiaodao looked at Cao Cao and said, "Doesn't the general think that the world today is very similar to the end of Qin four hundred years ago?" ”

Just one sentence made Cao Cao's back break out in a cold sweat.

He didn't expect the person in front of him to dare to say so.

Li Xiaodao ignored Cao Cao's emotions, but continued: "Looking at the general trend of the world, there has never been an escape from the eight-character proverb of 'divide for a long time must be together and divide for a long time', Qin II favored Zhao Gao, the eunuch, so that the inner court seized power, which led to the uprising of Chen Sheng and Wu Guang, which is very similar to the Yellow Turban Uprising today. ”

When Cao Cao first heard about it, he just wanted to refute it, but after thinking about it carefully, he couldn't help but have a trace of horror on his face.

Immediately, he looked at Li Xiaodao and asked in disbelief: "You actually said that the luck of the Han family is exhausted." ”

Li Xiaodao nodded and said: "Yes, although the Yellow Turban Uprising ended in failure, the role of the millions of Yellow Turbans gathered by Zhang Jiao is exactly the same as that of Chen Sheng and Wu Guang back then, and now Dong Zhuo bullying the court, killing the young emperor and killing the queen mother, has exhausted the last bit of prestige of the Han royal family, and next, Dong Zhuo will definitely lose, but the world will also fall into the era of princes' separation." ”

"What the general can do now is to gain a firm foothold as soon as possible in this troubled era, so that he can achieve a great cause in this magnificent era."

"But I don't know if the general has this ambition?"

In the last question, Li Xiaodao's eyes stared at Cao Cao, although Cao Cao at this time was still loyal to the monarch and serving the country, but Li Xiaodao believed that this future hero, after he spread the future world trend in front of him, would inevitably make a decision in line with his identity as a hero.

Otherwise, he would not be Cao Cao.

I saw Cao Cao at this moment, his face was pale after being shocked by Li Xiaodao's words, and his eyes were complicated.

Immediately, Cao Cao's eyes quickly flashed with determination, he looked at Li Xiaodao, and couldn't help but say, ", what should I do." ”

A smile appeared on Li Xiaodao's face, sure enough, Cao Cao is Cao Cao no matter what, and even if Cao Cao really has always had the heart of Kuang Jun as the savior in his heart, the establishment of power in the troubled times is a decision that any normal person would make.

At this time, Li Xiaodao showed a smile in his eyes and said, "Since Gong Cao has made a decision, then, we must continue to pursue Dong Zhuo." ”

Cao Cao immediately heard the change in the name of the person in front of him, Li Xuanji had always called him "general", and only now did he change his name to "Cao Gong", obviously after seeing his decision, he decided to sincerely contribute to him.

However, Cao Cao was a little puzzled by Li Xiaodao's suggestion, and asked rhetorically: "Cao himself also knows that if he pursues Dong Zhuo alone, he will be defeated, but I don't know why Mr. also suggested so." ”

He affirmed that Li Xiaodao's suggestion definitely had another meaning.

I only listened to Li Xiaodao slowly explain: "Now Yuan Shao's people have all been injured by the battle against Dong, and if they continue to fight, their bodies will be broken, so they are stagnant under this tiger prison, but they don't see the benefits of continuing to fight again." ”

"As long as the general leads the troops out alone to pursue Dong Zhuo, then in the eyes of the world, Cao Gong is undoubtedly the one who is most loyal to the Han family.

"Therefore, even if this battle is lost, as long as you take the initiative to pursue Dong Zhuo, you will leave an excellent impression in the eyes of the world's great families, and at that time, it will be easy to recruit troops or win people's hearts."

"For example, the Yingchuan Xun family, when they saw that all the princes were afraid of fighting, and only Cao Gong dared to continue to support Sheji, after that, there was a mysterious opportunity to write another letter, and a scribe with Yingchuan Xun as the hub would pour a few votes."

After Cao Cao heard this insight, he couldn't help but take a deep breath, and his eyes were already hot.

O human heart!

That's what he's going to get if he's going to keep on the pursuit.

In the whole world, people's hearts are the most rare.

As long as you have people's hearts, then no matter what you do later, you can get twice the result with half the effort.

After a long time, when Cao Cao eased the excitement in his heart, he looked at Li Xiaodao and said, "Mr.'s words made Cao Cao's mouth open, and Li Xuanji really lived up to his reputation." ”

Li Xiaodao continued: "And after chasing Dong Zhuo, Cao Gong's next plan is to go to the Yellow Turban remnants in Qingzhou, although there are many Yellow Turban remnants, but most of them are scattered, so the crusade against the Yellow Turbans can be easily achieved with only a few generals and two thousand elite soldiers." ”

"Qingzhou?"
