Dragon of the Three Kingdoms

After Tai Shici finished speaking, his face was full of helplessness.

Places like Yanzhou and Jingzhou are ready to fight at any time. If there is any trouble around them, they will be noticed immediately, and then the news will be sent to their leaders, so they can respond quickly.

But Yuzhou can't do it. Kong Rong pursues benevolence, righteousness and ethics, and he is not prepared for war at all.

Regarding Tai Shici's answer, Kong Rong was a little depressed, but he also knew that it was really not Tai Shici's fault, so he didn't complain.

Liu Fu suddenly said: "My lord, Fu thinks that the relationship between this matter and Li Yi is not just a case, but an inevitability!"

Kong Rong's heart trembled, and he quickly asked, "How do you say that?"

Liu Fu analyzed: "Lv Bu retreated steadily in Yanzhou, and it was only a matter of time before he lost to Cao Cao. However, Lv Bu could not protect himself, but he still wanted to send troops to Yingchuan to make enemies with the envoy. Other than Li Yi, who else can support him?"

After Liu Fu finished speaking, Wang Xiu and Xu Wei agreed in unison: "It makes sense!"

At the same time, Kong Rong's face became more and more ugly, and he almost gritted his teeth and said earnestly: "Li Yi, it really is Li Yi!"

"boom!"

Kong Rong stretched out his hand and slapped hard on several cases, and said angrily: "I decided to use all the soldiers in Yuzhou to punish the villains, take back Yingchuan, and seek justice for Yuanyi and the suffering people in Yingchuan. If Li Yi dares to send troops, Then hit it head-on, what do you think!"

Kong Rong was full of pride, but Wang Xiu and others were full of confusion.

In the current situation, others have kicked their house, and as the master, it is unreasonable not to fight back, but the problem is, their fists are not as big as others, what should they do if they fight back and get beaten again?

Seeing that everyone was silent, Kong Rong was really angry this time. He stood up and scolded: "You are all officials of the Han Dynasty. You have received the favor of the Han, read the books of sages and sages, and acted loyally. But now there are rebels making trouble. Err If you don't think about how to deal with the enemy, but look forward and backward like this, cherish your life and protect yourself, how can you be worthy of a big man and the emperor, you still have loyalty in your heart!"

Everyone was so ashamed that they lowered their heads and dared not look at Kong Rong.

Now the people around Kong Rong are all invited by Kong Rong, and the people who can be favored by Kong Rong may have high or low abilities, but other aspects, such as reputation, character, and integrity, must be no problem Yes, so, being pressured by Kong Rong's righteousness, he couldn't bear it immediately.

It's just that although these people are all talented and knowledgeable, few of them are good at military affairs. They all bowed their heads for a long time, but no one could respond to Kong Rong's words.

In the end, it was Tai Shici who said softly: "Your Majesty, if it is only Lu Bu's partial general, the last general will give up his life to take Yingchuan back for the envoy. However, once Li Yi joins the battle, the last general will die. But after that, how should the envoy deal with himself?"

The muscles on Kong Rong's face twitched, and after a while, he gritted his teeth again and said, "Li Yi, it's still Li Yi!"

Seeing that Kong Rong was on the verge of dying, Xu Wei thought of something, suddenly his eyes lit up, and asked, "May I know how long Liu Zhengli will be able to arrive in Yuzhou?"

Kong Rong was startled for a moment, but still replied: "The exact time is unknown, but it should not be too long, about half a month or so."

Just as he was talking, Kong Rong couldn't help but let out a small gasp, and asked in surprise, "Could it be that Meng Yu is going to lead the army with proper etiquette and take back Yingchuan?"

Xu Yan nodded and said: "I heard that Liu Zhengli knows the art of war and has the ability to lead the army, and the two generals Fan Neng and Zhang Ying beside him are brave enough to be unworthy of men. In addition, Zhengli is a clan member of the Han family. To be handsome, he should be able to fight Li Yi!"

When Tai Shici heard this, his eyes were full of astonishment.

He doesn't mind Kong Rong using Liu Yao and Liu Yao's people, and he will take over his military power later, but the key point is that the victory or defeat on the battlefield depends mainly on the morale and strength of the troops on both sides. It was Sun Wuzi who came back to life, and if he took Yuzhou's soldiers to face Li Yi directly without any adjustment, he would also suffer a big loss.

However, when Kong Rong listened to Xu Wei's suggestion, his eyes were full of brilliance, and he praised: "Okay, this method is very good. Zhengli came here for the affairs of Yangzhou, and he was appointed by the emperor, but Yingchuan's accident happened. It's not a bad idea to go to Yingchuan first, and if Zhengli can defeat Li Yi in Yingchuan, what kind of disturbances will those rebellious people in Yangzhou cause!"

Tai Shici's eyelids twitched, and he immediately wanted to persuade him, but after he opened his mouth, he didn't know what to say.

Because Kong Rong himself was right about this matter, but Yuzhou is too weak, no matter how he fights, he will lose. If he said that Liu Yao can't do it, could he be himself?Or, let Kong Rong lead the army himself?

Both left and right are losers, no matter how much he persuades him, Kong Rong can't just sit back and watch Yingchuan being occupied by others, can he?

After being dazed for a while, Tai Shici felt sad and sighed lightly. At the same time, he also made a decision, thinking that he would resign after Kong Rong got through this crisis. Leading troops in Yuzhou was really tormented.

Kong Rong didn't know Tai Shici's thoughts. After thinking about it for a while, he felt more and more reliable to let Liu Yao lead the troops, and said: "I will write to the emperor immediately, and temporarily use Zhengli as the prefect of Yingchuan. This is even more legitimate. I don't believe it. Li Yi can still openly resist the appointment of the court!"

Xu Wei immediately agreed and said: "What you said is very kind, but it will take some time for the ceremony. Before that, you can hold back your troops for a while, and at the same time appease Lu Bu, and even pretend to give Yingchuan to him. It's not a bad idea. He underestimates the enemy, and when everything is ready, he can defeat the enemy in one fell swoop before Li Yi reacts!"

Kong Rong hesitated for a moment, and finally nodded and said: "Forget it, for the sake of the overall situation, let's put up with it for a while, but don't neglect the matter of military preparations, Ziyi, you should work harder and practice more soldiers and horses. Be sure to display the majesty of the imperial court!"

Tai Shici immediately clasped his fists and said, "The last general takes orders!"

Afterwards, Kong Rong was about to continue to give instructions on food and grass, but he saw a person slamming into the door, and then staggered towards Kong Rong and the others, shouting: "Master, something is wrong!"

Kong Rong was displeased, and he was not in a hurry to ask questions, but reprimanded him: "Shouting so loudly, how decent is it, and the usual rules can't be followed! Go to the front yard to receive the punishment in a while!"

Normally, this person would have to sue for mercy, but this time he didn't bother to explain, and shouted directly: "Master, just now there is news from Yingchuan that Li Yi led his troops into Yingchuan!"

"what!"

Kong Rong and the others exclaimed in unison, and stood up together, their faces full of shock.

They were still thinking about getting Liu Yao to deal with Li Yi just now, but Li Yi came now, and this incident was a bolt from the blue, which caught them off guard.

"How dare Li Yi, how dare he do this"

Kong Rong muttered a few words, and suddenly stepped forward to grab the reporter and shouted loudly: "How dare Li Yi act like this, doesn't he have the court's law in his eyes?"

What Li Yi was thinking, the person who sent the message naturally didn't know, and he didn't know how to answer Kong Rong's question, so he simply said according to the information: "After Li Yi's army entered Yingchuan, he announced along the way that there were rebels attacking Yang Di. He came to protect the people of Yingchuan, and said that the rebels would be driven out in a few days, so that the people should not panic, and by the way, he also appointed Huang Zhong as the prefect of Yingchuan."

Kong Rong's eyes widened suddenly, and then his face turned red, and even his facial features began to distort, as if he was choosing someone to eat, and he was no longer elegant and easy-going in the past.

Seeing Kong Rong's expression was wrong, Tai Shici was afraid that he would get angry, so he quickly squatted down and supported Kong Rong's arm, and then asked, "Where is Li Yi now, and how many soldiers and horses are there?"

"When the news came, Li Yi had just arrived in Wuyang, as for the strength of the troops"

The messenger looked carefully at Kong Rong, swallowed hard, and then said stumblingly, "The flags of troops and horses stretch for miles, and it's hard to see how many, but it is said that it is no less than 15!"

Chapter 633

When Kong Rong and a group of his good friends were still in a mess in the wind and at a loss, Li Yi had already brought his "15 army" to Yangdi.

The so-called 15 army is naturally a bluff. In fact, Li Yi's vanguard is only 2, and the remaining [-] are behind. However, Li Yi stretched the team a little bit, raised more flags, stomped and raised more Hui, it is enough to bluff ordinary people.

Because Li Yi's reputation is good enough, this time under the banner of rescuing Yingchuan, he went very smoothly along the way. After arriving in Yangdi, Li Yi just set up an army formation and asked the soldiers to shout twice. Li Yi's "chaotic army" was overwhelmed by Li Yi's momentum, and he obediently surrendered.

Then Xu Huang led troops into the city, took over the city defense, and announced to the people that Li Yilai was here to protect them. After everything was done, Li Yi entered the city calmly and took over the prefect's mansion.

The next thing Li Yi has to do is to meet the two generals Wei Xu and Song Xian.

Speaking of which, Li Yi and these two are also old acquaintances. Li Yi even entered Luoyang under the pseudonym Li Bai and met Wei Xu on the first day. Later, Zhang Liao Gaoshun was introduced by Wei Xu.

It's a pity that when Lu Bu lost power, Wei Xu alienated Lu Bu, and had even less contact with Li Yi.

Song Xian and Li Yi also knew each other, but there was no friendship between them.

Not long after Li Yi ordered to go down, he heard footsteps coming from outside. Li Yi looked up and saw Wei Xu and Song Xian walking towards him quickly. He stopped and handed the sword around his waist to the guard guarding the gate.

Seeing this, Li Yi frowned slightly. He only said that the guards made it difficult for the two of them. Li Yi had specifically explained that he should be polite to them, and don't bully them just because they have more soldiers, let alone treat them as The troops have surrendered.

But soon, Li Yi's brows relaxed, because he realized that it seemed that it was not his guards who wanted to confiscate the weapons of Wei Xu and Song Xian, but they handed them over on their own initiative.

Li Yi just shook his head and smiled without thinking much about it, but Xun You, who was following him, squinted his eyes thoughtfully.
