Li Yi had noticed before that Wei Yan ran away not long after, and turned to look at him frequently. Obviously, he also thought of this, so he began to struggle, fearing that Li Yi would have a bad opinion of him.

Li Yi has more people in charge now, so naturally he won't be so petty. I saw him say to Tao Qian: "Tao Shijun should know that I sent troops to Jingnan before, and the whole journey was like a broken bamboo. The two counties of Changsha and Guiyang directly fought. That's right, outsiders only think that I use soldiers like a god, but in fact I am not, I was able to take Changsha, Guiyang and other places lightly without using weapons, in fact, it was all because of Wei Yan's strategy."

"Oh?"

Tao Qian was very surprised. He didn't expect this flattering guy to be a smart person, so he couldn't help but look at Wei Yan a little higher.

Wei Yan was a little smug in his heart, but he had been beaten by Li Yi several times, and he didn't dare to show that joy on his face. Instead, he said with trepidation: "The pacification of Jingnan all depends on the prestige of the lord. It’s not even the icing on the cake.”

Li Yi smiled and patted Wei Yan on the shoulder, telling him to step back, then looked at the three of Liu Bei who were clearly standing still, but seemed to be separated by the crowd, and suddenly asked: "From Xuande's point of view, How about my generals, who may take on heavy responsibilities?"

Chapter 464 You Disappointed Me Too Much

When the conflict happened just now, Liu Bei was indeed very nervous, and worried that Li Yi would take advantage of the situation to attack him directly. Fortunately, Li Yi took the initiative to resolve the conflict. Although Liu Bei was a little puzzled, he was really relieved.

But soon, Liu Bei's heart was full of melancholy.

Because for a person with great ambitions and ambitions, bowing his head to his opponent is certainly a humiliation, but it is not unbearable. When he was in Qingzhou before, Liu Bei's forbearance was already pure gold.

However, Liu Bei discovered today that what is more unbearable than humiliation is the ignorance of his opponent.

The two sides clashed, and Liu Bei was too nervous, but what about Li Yi?

Li Yi didn't move half a step from the beginning to the end, just glanced at him, and then ignored him, and then introduced his fierce generals to Tao Qian and Xuzhou officials on his own, complacent in the praise of everyone.

But Guan and Zhang, who are also called fierce generals, can only stand alone in the corner because of him, watching Li Yi's scenery silently. No matter how unconvinced they are in their hearts, they can't even say a word. They couldn't say, because they were worried that Li Yi would make trouble.

Liu Bei was very unwilling, he hated Li Yi, and hated himself for causing Guan Zhang to be wronged, but he also couldn't complain, because what happened just now, in the eyes of outsiders, he Liu Bei should probably thank Li Yi for his generosity, thank others for not compare with him

Liu Bei's heart was very cold, and he was also very afraid. He noticed the change in Tao Qian's attitude. Tao Qian had already begun to dislike him. If Tao Qian also gave up on him, then it would be really difficult for him to move forward in Xuzhou.

Just when Liu Bei was sighing with emotion, he heard Li Yi's question to him again, asking how his generals were doing. Liu Bei bit the tip of his tongue, savoring the tingling and bloody taste in his mouth, and then smiled at Li Yi, saying: " I have heard for a long time that the Marquis of Xiang has a lot of talents under his command, but seeing it in person today, I know that seeing is better than being famous, and just as Mr. Tao Shijun said, with Marquis Xiang here, Cao Cao has nothing to worry about!"

Li Yi laughed, but he admired Liu Bei's calmness in his heart. Although he resolved the conflict before, he deliberately left Liu Bei alone to see if Liu Bei's mentality would burst. However, Liu Bei can still laugh now, despite this smile It's pretending, but it also shows that Liu Bei's mentality has not collapsed, which is very powerful.

After laughing, Li Yi nodded and said, "I am so relieved to have Xuande's words!"

Liu Bei was about to respond, but Li Yi shook his head again, and said: "Xuande has also met Cao Cao, you should know how powerful he is, and there are many fierce generals and advisors under Cao Cao's command, so I have no problem with Cao Cao." Be absolutely sure, unless you can get another person to help you, you will basically be sure to fight Cao Cao this time."

Liu Bei's heart trembled, and he subconsciously felt that Li Yi's words must not be good, so he didn't want to continue, but Tao Qian, who was at the side, didn't care about Liu Bei's mood, and asked directly: "Who is Xianghou talking about?"

During the previous conflict, Tao Qian could clearly see that it was because Guan Yu moved first, so Li Yi reacted. Although Guan Yu didn't intend to be unfavorable to Li Yi at the time, in Tao Qian's view, Li Yi and him Not to mention leaving Liu Bei alone for a while, it’s okay to just reprimand him, but Guan Yu’s status is humble, unless Li Yi really wants to kill Liu Bei on the spot, otherwise Guan Yu is not qualified to join in at all, that is, Liu Bei has nothing to do with him. Courtesy comes first.

In addition, Liu Bei and the others only knew to stare at Li Yi, but Li Yi asked Gan Ning to protect him. This small move directly made Tao Qian's heart turn to Li Yi's side, and at the same time, he also had a crush on Liu Bei. He was very dissatisfied with not being able to restrain his subordinates, and even secretly began to regret it, thinking that he should not make peace for the two.

Therefore, even though he realized that Li Yi's words seemed to be aimed at Liu Bei, when Tao Qian heard Li Yi said that he was absolutely sure of defeating Cao Cao, he didn't care about how much this had to do with Liu Bei, so he asked directly.

Li Yi chuckled, and then his eyes fell on Liu Bei's face. The latter's heart suddenly changed, thinking of a very bad possibility, his face suddenly changed.

However, Li Yi didn't speak in a hurry, but slowly shifted his gaze to Guan Yu's face. Guan Yu was still holding his breath. When he saw Li Yi looking at him, he squinted his eyes and lowered his eyes, not looking at Li Yi.

It's just that Guan Yu's seemingly evasive reaction gave Li Yi a very dangerous feeling inexplicably.

Although Li Yi has always regarded Liu Bei as an enemy, but under the situation of completely taking the initiative, Li Yi no longer thinks that Liu Bei can make much waves. On the contrary, when he saw Guan Yu, Li Yi felt a little trembling.

Intuition told Li Yi that if he was told to face Guan Yu, even if he cheated, he would probably die.

Li Yi moved his gaze away from Guan Yu, and finally fell on Zhang Fei.

Zhang Fei was more upright. Seeing Li Yi looking at him, his eyes widened and he stared back at Li Yi's gaze.

Li Yi was clueless, and his eyes stayed on Zhang Fei for a while, then turned to Tao Qian and said, "Tao Shijun, this person's surname is Zhang Mingfei, and his name is Yide. Although his reputation is not obvious, he actually has undeserved courage , if the two armies are at war, let him be the vanguard, and it will be no problem to kill the general and capture the flag, so if we can get the help of this person, we can defeat Cao Cao, hehe, it's just a snap of the fingers."

"what!"

"No!"

"what do you want to do!"

As soon as Li Yi finished speaking, the three of Liu Bei couldn't help but speak out one after another, and glared at Li Yi at the same time.

Although Liu Bei was very unwilling in his heart before, he could bear it and told himself not to compete with Li Yi for a while, but this time he couldn't do it. Li Yi's words directly exceeded his bottom line.

The corner of Tao Qian's mouth twitched. Before Li Yi didn't directly embarrass Liu Bei, he thought that Li Yi had put those things down, but he didn't want Li Yi to be smiling on the surface, but dug a big hole for Liu Bei quietly. .

Although Tao Qian had some opinions on Liu Bei because of the previous incident, he is not Li Yi, and he still has to face how many things he does. He invited Liu Bei here today. I'm sorry for that person.

Tao Qian lowered his head slightly, pretending that he didn't know anything. He didn't want to directly participate in this matter, and felt that it was better to let Li Yi and Liu Bei discuss it by themselves.

Li Yi ignored the attitudes of Liu Bei and the other three, and said to Tao Qian again: "This time Yi came to help Xuzhou. Although he can keep Xuzhou undefeated, it will not be easy to defeat Cao Cao. However, if Zhang Fei can help Tao Shijun, Yi If you dare to write a letter, within three months, I will let Cao Cao withdraw from Xuzhou!"

When Tao Qian heard the words, he didn't bother to pretend to be stupid, he raised his head directly, and even took a step closer to Li Yi, and hurriedly asked: "What Xianghou said is true!"

Li Yi raised his chin slightly, and said in a somewhat proud tone: "That's natural, if it doesn't work, after three months, I will be responsible for the food and grass of my tens of thousands of soldiers and horses, and all the supplies of armaments and armor." , and don’t let the envoy waste a little money and food.”

Tao Qian hurriedly waved his hand and said, "What is the Marquis Xiang talking about? It's a righteous act for the Marquis Xiang to come to Xuzhou to help the war. If I'm stingy with the money, wouldn't it make people laugh at me? Don't mention these things again, or the old man I can only fight Cao Cao myself!"

Li Yi smiled and leaned forward: "It's Yi, isn't it, words are meaningless, I hope you don't blame me."

Tao Qian naturally didn't blame Li Yi, but took Li Yi's arm affectionately, coughed lightly, and said: "However, Cao Cao has caused too much harm in Xuzhou, and countless people have been displaced because of it. If the Marquis of Xiang can expel him sooner , it doesn’t matter how much money and food is spent, the key is to save tens of thousands of people from the disaster of swords and soldiers, so”

Tao Qian paused, then looked at Liu Bei, his eyes were full of anticipation, but there was a bit of sternness hidden in the anticipation, obviously hoping that Liu Bei could give him a satisfactory answer.

Seeing Tao Qian's eyes, Li Yi already knew in his heart that Liu Bei was hopeless in Xuzhou.

At this time, not only Tao Qian and Li Yi looked at Liu Bei, but other Jingzhou officials also looked at him, waiting for his answer.

Zhang Fei's face turned red, and he wanted to say something, but Liu Bei pulled him hard, so he could only back down.

It's just that after Zhang Fei stepped down, Liu Bei himself didn't know how to deal with this situation.

Promise, that is absolutely impossible.

What kind of person is Li Yi?

But, can Liu Bei refuse?

Neither can.

If Li Yi simply asked Zhang Fei, Liu Bei would have rejected him directly. Even though both sides looked bad, no one could point him at him. On the contrary, it was Li Yi who used his power to force Zhang Fei. It was Li Yi's fault, and Liu Bei could still get a wave of sympathy after shedding tears.

But Liu Bei didn't expect that Li Yi would use the Xuzhou war to gamble, and he said that if he lent Zhang Fei to him, he would be able to expel Cao Cao within three months. This condition was too tempting for Xuzhou people.

What is the war, money, food, and population? Li Yi has 3 people this time, which is 3 young and strong mouths. Tao Qian can't, and doesn't dare to treat them badly. Then, the monthly consumption of Li Yi's [-] people Money and food are figures that are enough to make Tao Qian feel distressed.

Counting all kinds of sabotage by Cao Cao, Xuzhou's wealth and population are being lost every day like running water. Adding up here and there, Xuzhou's burden can be paid for a while, but after a long time, Tao Qian can't bear it at all.

Then, if Li Yizhen can make Cao Cao retreat within three months, it would be an irresistible temptation for Tao Qian. In the face of such a big benefit, Tao Qian's own face is not very important, let alone A little-known Zhang Fei, don't say that Li Yi just borrowed it, even if Li Yizhen killed him, someone would take the initiative to pass the knife to Li Yi.
