Hearing Yuan Shao's sarcasm at this moment, Li Li caressed the bristling mane on the back of the golden beast king's neck, with a calm smile on his face, his expression calm and calm.

"General Yuan is too polite. To be honest, the previous trip to Jizhou was not because Li did not want to stay for a long time, but because it was too late. A folk proverb says: You can't become fat if you eat in one sitting. At that time, Li was too busy to take care of himself. Jizhou, so temporarily entrust Jizhou to General Yuan, and when the time comes, Li will live in Jizhou permanently, so General Yuan will not bother."

After a pause in his tone, seeing Yuan Shao's brows twitching in anger, Li Li didn't wait for him to speak, and continued to say: "The sage said: come and don't be indecent. It's rare for General Yuan to come and step Since you are here this time, don't rush to go back. Hangu Pass is not far from Chang'an. Li must treat General Yuan warmly as a landlord, and persuade him to stay longer. There is nothing wrong with this. It just happens that the emperor often talks about General Yuan, saying that the general is a descendant of the Han Dynasty. The Yuan family has been loyal and good for many generations. I don't think that the general came here without invitation, so it will save trouble, so the general will come back with me this time. I don't know what General Yuan wants? Hehehe!"

"It's unreasonable!" Seeing that Li Li's words became more and more enthusiastic, and the more he said the more joyously, Yuan Shao finally couldn't help but angrily scolded: "Li Li, the leader of this alliance sees that you have repeatedly crusaded against the barbarians for the great man, pacified the border troubles, and expanded the territory for the great man. In terms of affection, I respectfully address you as 'General', but I didn't expect you to be so arrogant, conceited, ignorant of flattery, extremely arrogant! Since that's the case, it's inconvenient for you and me to say more, it's a duel on the battlefield , Yuan Mou would also like to see, what kind of ability do you have to dare to be so rampant? Hmph!"

In a fit of rage, Yuan Shao glared at Li Li and snorted coldly, then turned his horse around and prepared to retreat to the main formation.

"Wait a minute!" He raised his voice to stop Yuan Shao, and Li Li said with a smile: "General Yuan is also the leader of the allied army of hundreds of thousands of princes. If he loses his temper from embarrassment, he might lose his status and dignity as the leader, right? Old and sentimental, Li thought that General Yuan liked to communicate with young generals, so he spent a lot of time talking with you. Unexpectedly, General Yuan didn't appreciate it at all, but instead turned angrily at each other. This is really a good intention and a waste of Li. With passion."

After a pause, Li Li changed his subject abruptly: "Since this is the case, Li doesn't want to talk about it with you. You and I should talk openly and directly. I don't know why General Yuan invited Li to talk about it before the battle? Tell the truth, don't hide it, you are in a hurry, and I am not idle, just tell me, what are your plans?"

"Hehe, an attempt?" Yuan Shao reined in his horse when he heard the sound, and with a sneer, he drove his mount back two steps. He stared at Li Li coldly, narrowed his eyes and said sinisterly, "Isn't General Li thinking too much of himself? This time, on behalf of me, the princes of the seven towns and counties in the Central Plains, I am meeting with you, not to discuss peace with you, but to remind you to judge the situation and not to go your own way, so as not to bring disaster to the whole family, ransack your family and wipe out your family, and die without a place to die!"

"Oh, ransacking the family and exterminating the family, so there is no place to die?" Li Lijian frowned slightly, pondered, and then laughed loudly: "It turns out that the leader of the alliance came here specially to threaten Li, very good, very good! For so many years, you, Yuan Shao, are the first person who dares to intimidate Li in front of him. Leaving aside whether this threat is useful to Li, this courage alone is enough to impress Li. Hahaha"

Amidst the loud laughter, Li Li's tone paused for a moment, and then his tone suddenly changed: "The 36 princes' allied army is huge and has a large number of people. Since Chen Liu joined the alliance five years ago, this is the largest war in the world in recent years. The leader of the alliance, Yuan Da, is truly remarkable. Chen Liuhui made the alliance first, and this time he contacted the princes of various towns to form an alliance for the second time. He used the power of the allied forces to show off his power and dominate the situation. This kind of alliance is unbearable. But leader Yuan is alone!

It's a pity that Master Yuan may be too forgetful, the one standing in front of you is not Dong Zhuo, but I, Li Li and Li Wenchang!In Li Mou's eyes, the hundreds of thousands of allied forces of the princes and princes like you are just a group of mobs, who can be killed with one hand; even if there are 30 more horses, what is Li afraid of?

You can see that two years ago, I had 20 war cavalry and 20 infantry cavalry, a total of 40 infantry cavalry!After two years, don't think that only you are recruiting troops to expand your strength, and Li will be restrained, hesitant to move forward, and enjoy himself behind closed doors.Today, Mr. Li is telling you that I, Li Li, have 50 troops under my command. Even if you don’t come to take the initiative to provoke me this time, Li’s 50 troops are already hungry and thirsty, and I will definitely wipe out you Wait for the little ones!

But now, you and others will come to your door automatically, which is exactly what Li wants. Since they are all here, don't even think about going back alive! "

"Hahaha!" Yuan Shao laughed loudly when he heard the words, and taunted him without giving an inch: "Li Li, you have such a big tone! You don't need to brag, Yuan also knows that you have a lot of soldiers in Xiliang under your command, but if you say that you are supporting soldiers 50 is an exaggeration. As far as I know, two years ago, Xiao'er had only 30 soldiers and horses, and there was a shortage of food and grass, no clothes, no food to eat, and there was no force to go to the Central Plains. In the past two years, Xiao'er The militarism, the arrogant expansion of the territory for hundreds of miles, and the wanton accommodation of foreign barbarians in the territory caused the Xiliang government to make ends meet, money and food were in short supply, the barracks had no food for every other month, and the people had no clothes to go out. In such a poor situation, children can't take care of themselves, so what can they do? Expand troops and horses, strengthen strength?

Knowing what to do but doing it, the arrogance of a child is truly unrivaled in the world, but the concubine Li Li is alone!Today I have 30 allied troops in front of Chen Bingguan, but even though you have 30 troops, you still need to divide your troops to garrison each state and county. The available troops are only 10 horses. How can such weak soldiers be the enemy of our allies? The mantis' arm blocks the car beyond its control! "

Chapter 687

Thanks: Liutianleixinlong book friends reward and encourage, thank you!

The more he talked, the more vigorous he was, Yuan Shao lifted the rein and jumped on the horse, and shouted angrily: "If you still have a little self-knowledge, you will immediately get off your horse and beg for surrender. The leader of this alliance remembers that heaven has the virtue of being good at life, and he can leave your whole body; That day is when Ru Xiao will be the head, when our allied forces break through Chang'an, the entire family of Er Li's family will be wiped out in ashes, and they will never be reborn forever!"

"Hahaha! Good, good, good!"

Li Li laughed back angrily, and shouted sharply: "It is said that Yuan Ben was born with a good skin. In Li's eyes, you still have a sharp tooth. You really have a good head. When you are old, you dare to be with Li. You are not ashamed to speak out in front of you! Maybe you, Yuan Shao, are not the most eloquent person in history, but you are the thickest and most shameless person Li has ever seen!"

Amidst the shouts, Li Li looked coldly at the army of princes behind Yuan Shao, and shouted in a loud voice: "Since you have the courage to come to the front of the pass today to fight, don't use your tongue, what can you do?If you dare not go out to fight, then Li will not send you off, and you will go back quickly when you come from where you came from, and don't make noise in front of Li! "

The voice paused for a while, but he saw his hands unrestrained, his right hand shook, and the cold golden sword came out: "Yuan Shaopifu, don't you want to fight me? If you have the courage, you can still be considered a fertile man!" You son of a bitch, just let the horse come here, Li can kill you as easily as butchering a pig or a dog, he can cut you into pieces with just one knife; I, Li Li, will fight!"

"Dare to fight me, Li Li"

The sound of Li Liyang shouting angrily resounded in front of the pass, and the sound shook all directions.Enduring.

In an instant, 30 allied troops looked at Yuan Shao in unison, and even some princes in front of the allied army looked at him with burning eyes.Hope he can play against Li Li.

It should be known that Yuan Shao was also a well-known brave man in Luoyang City when he was young, so he has been serving as a general since he became an official.Is it just one knife? One knife can determine the outcome of the entire battle. Such a thing that has all benefits but no harm is worth a try.Could it be that in just over ten years, Yuan Shao's martial arts were all wasted.Can't even take a stab at Li Li?

Seeing Li Li ready to try with the knife in his hand, Yuan Shao, under the watchful eyes of everyone, was really frightened, his old face turned crimson like a jujube.His face was flushed, and he was about to turn around and retreat to the front line, but he was worried that he would lose face in public, and he was even more afraid that Li Li would kill him from behind.

Indeed.He did say before that he would fight Li Li on the battlefield.But the original intention of this sentence is not that he wants to fight Li Li in front of the battle, but that he said it casually, which means that the generals of the Allied Army will fight the generals of Xiliang in front of the battle to see who is better.I didn't want to, but Li Li took advantage of the loopholes. He repeated the old saying and ran on him to fight in person, and said, "If there is a man with balls, he will fight Li Li."

If it is so humiliating, if time goes back 20 years.Yuan Shao definitely has the courage to fight Li Li, and is confident that he can save his life under Li Li's blow.but.At this moment, he really couldn't do it. Hugh said that he didn't even have the courage to fight Li Li head-on.

Now Yuan Shao is over fifty years old, time is not forgiving!Although he has often put on armor to go into battle these years, but that is to command the army to fight, and he has been sitting in the rear of the army from the beginning to the end, why has he personally gone into battle to kill the enemy?It's a pity that the people he is facing now are a group of soldiers who can't read a lot of characters. These soldiers who are bathed in blood don't understand the truth at all. They only know how to join the army to eat food and blindly worship the strong. What are your difficulties?

Just as Yuan Shao was burning with anxiety, Cao Cao, Lu Bu, Zhang Yan, Sun Ce and other princes in front of the allied army were also stunned by the sudden scene in front of the formation, and then looked at each other in astonishment.

At this time, the princes couldn't help thinking like this: "Li Li invited Yuan Shao to fight, how could this be so? Wouldn't Yuan Shao and Li Li fight to the death? How could Yuan Shao be Li Li's opponent, even if the time went back 20 years, He is not Li Li's enemy, he must die!"

Indeed, who is Li Li from Xiliang.As early as two years ago, he was a well-known warrior in the battlefield of the Han Dynasty. He slashed Cheng Yin with a knife and killed Zhang Xiu, the spear king of the North within three rounds. He broke into the tens of thousands of troops under Han Sui and Ma Teng alone. Such a fierce army commander is rare in the world, and can be compared with the former overlord Xiang Yu.These are all old things in the past, and there is a living example around the princes alone: ​​in the battle of Feiyundu, Li Li entered the tens of thousands of Cao Cao's army alone, riding a sword and fighting alone. But he was unscathed and killed hundreds of Cao Jun soldiers by himself.Such bravery, even Wen Hou Lu Bu, who is known as the undefeated god of war among the allied forces, did not have the courage to try it himself, but Li Li did it and retreated unscathed.This is the real bravery of a thousand husbands, and he can be called the invincible commander who took the head of a general among millions of troops.

"Second Young Master, the leader of the alliance is now on the verge of riding a tiger, and Second Young Master needs to step forward to make a rescue!"

In front of the allied formation, Cao Cao and his advisor Cheng Yu were in Yuan Shao's formation this time. Cao Cao and Yuan Shao's second son Yuan Xi stood side by side, while Cheng Yu reined in behind Cao Cao.Seeing that Yuan Shao was in a dilemma, riding a tiger, and the allied princes stood by, no one was willing to take the initiative to exchange for Yuan Shao. At this time, others could not save Yuan Shao, but Cao Cao could not ignore it and watch from the sidelines.Because his revival plan is all pinned on Yuan Shao, if something happens to Yuan Shao, it will mean that his hope of rising will be ruined.

However, it was inconvenient for Cao Cao to come forward at this time, and it was even more impossible to send Cao Ren to fight Li Li to rescue Yuan Shao.So Cao Cao turned his head and glanced at Cheng Yu behind him, motioning for him to come forward to remind Yuan Xi and send Jizhou generals to rescue the siege.

Sure enough, after hearing Cheng Yu's whispered reminder, Yuan Xi woke up suddenly, but subconsciously waved his hands again and again: "Could Mr. Zhong De intend to harm me? Li Li's villain is so fierce, how can I be the enemy of the villain? If so Going out at the right time may not only fail to save my father, but will cost my own life instead!"

Obviously, even though Yuan Xi swore in front of his father Yuan Shao that he would seek revenge on Li Li, and he was ashamed, but when he actually faced Li Li, he was afraid to the bone and did not dare to go forward to meet Li Li.

"Second Young Master, I misunderstood what I mean. I want to remind Young Master that Leader Yuan is in a dangerous situation right now, and he was caught by Li Thief when he spoke first. He is definitely not the enemy of Li Thief. The allied soldiers lost face in front of them and their reputation was damaged, so they hesitated and were in a dilemma. At this time, the young master only needs to order the powerful generals under the leader's command to fight. This can not only give the leader a step down, but also save the leader's face .” Cheng Yu explained in a low voice.

"Oh, so that's the case." Yuan Xi nodded lightly belatedly, with a relaxed look of relief on his face.

Seeing Yuan Xi's unbearable situation, Cheng Yu couldn't help but secretly sighed in disappointment, and then hurriedly urged: "Second Young Master, don't hesitate, you must make a quick decision. Otherwise, if Li Thief makes a sudden move, the leader's life may be in danger. It will be too late at that time, and I will stop waiting for the Allied forces!"

"Is it so serious?" Yuan Xi responded in astonishment, and immediately turned his head to the vanguard general Han De and ordered: "I also ask old general Han to fight Li Li quickly and welcome my father back, so as to relieve my father's siege!"

The veteran Han De, who was about the same age as Yuan Shao, came out in response: "The old man is ordered, and now I will fight Li thief, and I will kill this thief with my hands. Let's see how arrogant he can be!"

"Wait a minute, old general Han!" Seeing an old Han De riding forward, Cheng Yu was greatly disappointed, and immediately called out to stop Han De, and then advised Yuan Xi: "Second son, old general Han is brave. Extraordinary, known as the "King of Swords" in Hebei, I have heard of it before. It's just that this time I have to save the leader and face the thief Li. I am worried that the old general Han will not be able to do it, and I will invite the second son. Send another general to go with us, so that nothing will go wrong!"

"Well, what you said makes sense." Yuan Xi hesitated for a while, then nodded happily and said, "Where is Han Meng? This general ordered you to go out immediately and fight against Lieutenant Li with Uncle Ru!"

"Promise, the last general will take the order!" Han Meng responded and went out of the battle, and then galloped with Han De to the front of the battle.

In fact, when Yuan Xi ordered the generals behind him to go out to fight, many generals of the Jizhou Army who had just been dazed just now woke up.Among them, the second general Yan Liangwen and Chou who followed Yuan Shao all the time was ready to fight, but Yuan Xi did not order them to fight, but sent Han De and Han Meng uncle and nephew to the battle.

Yan Liang, Wen Chou were very dissatisfied with this move, but they had no choice but to rein in their horses and stop to watch the changes ahead.In addition to these two, there are many generals from Jizhou who also intend to fight. After all, this kind of opportunity to fight Xiliang Li Li in person is rare. It is a great opportunity to become famous all over the world. It will be very difficult to meet such a good opportunity to become famous again in a lifetime.However, Han De, Han Meng's uncle and nephew have always been close to Yuan Xi, and they have faintly joined the second son's account and become trusted generals.The other generals belonged to different camps, some attached to the eldest son Yuan Tan, and some took refuge in the third son Yuan Shang, so they were extremely dissatisfied with Yuan Xi's behavior of favoring one another, but they dared not speak out, so they could only sit in command Before the battle, look forward to it.

At the same time, on the tower of Hangu Pass, Guo Jia couldn't help laughing out loud when he heard his lord challenge Yuan Shao.

"My lord's behavior was really unexpected. He even challenged Yuan Shao in public, and he didn't give Yuan Shao any way to retreat. With a single sentence, he drove old man Yuan Shao to a dead end, making him unable to get off the tiger and in a dilemma. In my opinion, the lord is clearly I can't say that Yuan Shao can't, so I made this bad plan. Hehehe!"

Chapter 688

"Follow your filial piety and speak carefully, never criticize the lord's right or wrong."

After hearing Guo Jia's words, Jia Xu reminded him softly, and then said with a smile: "In fact, Feng Xiao only knows one thing but not the other. You only saw that the lord seemed to be unable to scold Yuan Shao, so he forced Yuan Shao to fight in anger. However, the lord is also an eloquent person. It should be noted that answering before the battle is not as good as talking in private. Every word and deed is directly related to the morale of the two armies. It is not that you can say what you want. , will often lose face, and then affect the morale of the entire army.”

When Jia Xu paused, Guo Jia interjected, "Brother Wen He meant that the lord deliberately showed weakness and pretended that he could not defend Yuan Shao, and then pretended to be angry and caught Yuan Shao's slip of the tongue to force him to fight before the battle. ?”

Jia Xu nodded and smiled: "Has Feng Xiao ever seen a scene where common people fight?"

"Of course I've seen it. People in the market often fight violently when they disagree with each other, until one of them is beaten bloody and begs for mercy. I have seen such street fights more than once, and it is not uncommon. Wen Why do brothers and sisters ask this question?"

"Aside from talking about identity and status, let's look at the current situation between the lord and Yuan Shao in Fengxiao, does it seem familiar?"

"This..." Guo Jia was stunned when he heard the words, and suddenly he had a flash of inspiration, and suddenly realized: "Hey, that's true! At first, the lord and Yuan Shao ridiculed each other secretly, and then sweared at each other, and then the lord pretended that he couldn't argue with Yuan Shao, so he wanted to Fighting with Yuan Shao in public. This scene is really the same as fighting in the market place. If you don't speculate, you will swear. When you can't scold others, you will fight. It turns out that this is the real intention of the lord!"

"Exactly. My lord's actions have always been unpredictable, and they are as unpredictable as a powerful and unconstrained style. The grander the scene, the more unpredictable it is. Many things that we think are very difficult will often become very difficult in the hands of the lord." Simple. In such a tense situation like the one in front of you, it would be difficult for anyone to be calm and able to deal with the 10 troops of the two armies. But the lord regards the armies of the princes as nothing, and uses the simplest method to strike the allies. The purpose of military morale, this is the real demeanor of a king!" Jia Xu exclaimed with admiration.

"Ugh!" Guo Jia was stunned when he heard the words, "Isn't it a little bit my lord?"
