Dragon of the Three Kingdoms

Zhang Hu saw that although Li Yi let go, he only let go halfway. He knew that Li Yi was angry, and said again: "Prefect Li, don't be as knowledgeable as him. General Xiao Wang is young and energetic, and sometimes it is inevitable to say the wrong thing."

Li Yi shook his head and said, "General Zhang, stop trying to persuade me. Today, Wang Yi will question me in public, and tomorrow, Sun Yi will question me. If everyone follows his example, how can I gain a foothold in Jingzhou?"

Chapter 177 Li Yi wants to run away?

Seeing Li Yi's resolute tone, Zhang Hu knew that it was useless to persuade him, so he had to stand aside. Anyway, he had already persuaded him, and even if Wang Wei was dissatisfied after returning, he could not blame him.

Zhang Hu stepped aside, Li Yi casually pointed at a few soldiers, and said, "Drag him to me and beat him with thirty army sticks!"

"Although Wang is guilty, he is not wrong! The prefect can't beat me!"

Wang Yi had almost vomited the contents of his stomach at this time, and when he heard that his neck was stiff, he said unwillingly: "Wang is not wrong, Li Taishou and Na Ji Ling flirt with each other, if they collude, Jingzhou will be in danger. General, killing Ji Ling is only right, why not ask the prefect!"

"Hahaha!"

Li Yi couldn't help laughing three times, and uttered a very pretentious sentence in later generations: "This prefect acts, why should I explain to you?"

Regardless of Wang Yi's somewhat stunned expression, Li Yi said again: "Come on, hurry up and drag him down, add another twenty to the army stick!"

But the embarrassing thing was that after Li Yi gave the order, the soldiers he pointed at before didn't move.

Seeing this, Wang Yi came back to his senses, and laughed loudly: "Prefect Li, you can see that the army's heart is here. If you don't explain clearly, the Jingzhou Army may not be able to be used by the prefect!"

"idiot!"

Li Yi scolded, he didn't think it was because of Ji Ling or Yuan Shu that these soldiers didn't move.

As far as Li Yi's various performances were concerned, these soldiers had already admired them quite a bit, and Li Yi could still order them around. It was just that Wang Yi had a good father, which made them worry.

Li Yi looked at those soldiers and said coldly: "If you beat Wang Yi today, you will not be embarrassed by the fact that General Wang Wei is upright, but if you don't listen to my order, I will call you now!" Don't forget that the head fell to the ground, this prefect even dared to kill Dong Zhuo!"

The soldiers suddenly became excited, but they were reminded by Li Yiyi that they had come back with understanding. Although the Lord in front of him had just arrived in Jingzhou, his reputation was far better than that of Wang's father and son. He even killed Dong Zhuo, so he would care The lives of their pawns?

In order to save their own lives, several people rushed forward, held down Wang Yi who hadn't reacted yet, and dragged him outside.

Wang Yi was also stubborn, he didn't beg for mercy, he just said loudly: "As long as Wang doesn't die, Zhou Mu will know what the eunuch has done!"

Regarding Wang Yi's yelling, Li Yi didn't bother to take another look, but his mood was terrible.

Originally, Li Yi really wanted to train Wang Yi to be his own person, but seeing Wang Yi's performance, Li Yi knew that it would take too much effort for him to change his position, and Wang Yi was not a "celebrity". The reckless behavior of Ji Ling who assassinated without authorization today made Li Yi's evaluation of him a lot lower, and he gave up this person directly.

On the contrary, beating Wang Yi up today is a way to build up his prestige, and let him finally let off his residual heat.

At this time, Zhang Hu leaned over again, and said in a low voice: "Prefect Li, this beat General Xiao Wang, I'm afraid it will be difficult to explain when I go back."

Li Yi smiled slightly. He knew that Zhang Hu was not only worried about Wang Yi, but also about Ji Ling's relationship.

"General Zhang, don't worry too much. After you return to Xinye, you can just report the truth to Zhou Mu, and you don't need to hide anything for Li."

After a pause, Li Yi lowered his voice again, but added in a more emphatic tone: "Don't hide it, you must be truthful, otherwise if Zhou Mu hears a different voice, it will not only be Li, but also General Zhang. I'm afraid there will be some trouble."

Zhang Hu didn't realize what he meant at first, but the next moment his heart shuddered, and he felt a chill behind his back. Li Yi was saying that there was Liu Biao's eyeliner in the army.

But is there really an eyeliner in the military?

Zhang Hu didn't know.

Li Yi didn't even know that he just planed a hoe on the corner of Liu Biao's wall, and loosened the soil when he had the chance. Maybe one day the wall would collapse.

Judging from Zhang Hu's reaction, he should have taken Li Yi's words seriously.

According to the original plan, Li Yi planned to ask Wang Yi to go to the mountain to meet Cai Mao, and it was also a gift to Wang Yi, but because of this army stick, Wang Yi's temporary lieutenant general had already been withdrawn, so naturally he would not be called out.

So, after Ji Ling's army really retreated, Li Yi was in charge of the army, and Zhang Hu led a thousand soldiers to meet Cai Mao at the foot of the hill. .

Li Yi went to wait for Cai Mao in front of the camp gate, and found that although Cai Mao was pale, he was walking basically fine, he was slightly relieved, and went forward and said: "Li is late, luckily the army is good, otherwise I will be called Li! "

Cai Mao has lost the vigor and vigor of the past. At this moment, his armor has long since faded, his hair is messy, his face is haggard, half of his clothes are torn, and there is blood on his chest. He looks very embarrassed.

As for the [-] soldiers and horses who followed Cai Mao to fight, there are only a thousand or so left now, and nearly half of them are wounded.

Preliminary estimates show that even if the rout is gathered afterwards, at least [-]% of the [-] troops will be lost.

Cai Mao looked at Li Yi, laughed bitterly and said: "I regret not listening to what the Marquis of Xiang said yesterday. It was Cai who was eager for quick success and quick benefits, so he suffered a disastrous defeat today. Now there are only a thousand of the three thousand robes left. What face do I have to see Zhouzhou again?" Mu, goodbye folks and elders?"

After Cai Mao finished speaking, he closed his eyes, drew his sword and wiped it on his neck.

Li Yi was also very embarrassed at first, only saying that Cai Mao was hit, after all, this defeat was completely unexpected.

But when Li Yi sees Cai Mao, he wants to wipe his neck

Cai Mao's talent may not be sure, but this guy definitely doesn't have much blood in his bones.

Li Yi suddenly remembered Liu Huangshu throwing A Dou, what regrets, what shit tears, all for others to see!

Li Yi secretly scolded Cai Mao for being shameless, and wanted to leave it alone to see if he could erase it in the end, but in that case, don't expect to win over Cai Mao in the future.

Therefore, Li Yi immediately blended into the supporting role consciously, grabbed Cai Mao's arm with "quick eyes and quick hands", and shouted loudly: "Military division must not!"

Being blocked by Li Yi in this way, Cai Mao's sword naturally couldn't fall down, and Zhang Hu and the surviving generals under Cai Mao's command also surrounded them, and took the long sword from Cai Mao's hand in a hurry, and they all spoke to persuade them.

"Victory or defeat is a common matter for military strategists, why should the military commander take it to heart?"

"If there is no military advisor, Jingzhou will definitely not be safe. The military advisor must not abandon the people of Jingzhou!"

"This defeat is not a crime of war, how can you blame the military division?"

Listening to a group of people chirping to excuse Cai Mao, Li Yi also said a few words in line, then slowly stepped aside, and found that the expressions of Cai Mao's remnant soldiers were numb with horror, and there were many distraughts. The shadow is not small, and Cai Mao's show can't completely restore the morale of the army.

As for the soldiers and horses behind Li Yi, there was some fear and sympathy, and at the same time, I was very glad that they were not taken away by Cai Mao.

Perhaps, they would also be grateful that Li Yi didn't take them to confront Ji Ling head-on.

Because Cai Mao was injured, after a brief welcome, everyone brought Cai Mao into the camp, and once again confirmed that Ji Ling did not leave behind, they found a carriage and carried Cai Mao back to Xinye.

Although someone entered the city to report to Liu Biao early on, but the defeat was so miserable that Liu Biao couldn't bear it, and instead of going out of the city to greet him, he waited outside the county government office.

After the two sides met, Cai Mao paid homage directly, and cried bitterly at Liu Biao. It was a mess, and he took all the responsibilities on himself, and even asked Liu Biao to dismiss him as a military adviser.

Naturally, Liu Biao would not agree to Cai Mao's resignation, and he did not blame Cai Mao, but he did not make excuses for Cai Mao's failure like those generals.

Liu Biao only said that Cai Mao could recover from his injuries, and that he would avenge his shame in the future, and pay homage to the soldiers who died in this battle together after he recovered from his injuries.

As a bystander, Li Yi felt that Liu Biao was really a qualified state shepherd. If he won the world, Liu Biao would still be there, and he would be called the state shepherd.

Although Liu Biao appeased Cai Hao, Cai Hao still dared to stay shameless for a long time, so he left with the excuse of pain, and then the remaining protagonist was Li Yi.
