Dragon of the Three Kingdoms

And later he gradually alienated from Li Yi, and a large part of the reason was because Li Yi was too prosperous, but he was down and out, and finally felt jealous.

Lu Bu was so shocked that he was speechless, Li Yi took a sip of wine, moistened his throat, and said, "Fengxian, the difference between you and me is that you only see power in one city and one place, while in my eyes, the whole The world, then you should understand, since my ambition is in the world, how can this Yanzhou let go?"

Speaking of Yanzhou, Lu Bu came back to his senses for a while, and anger appeared again between his brows, but Li Yi said in a timely manner: "Fengxian, don't worry, just listen to me, the only people who can hope to dominate the world now are me and that Hebei Yuan Shao, and I have a better chance of winning, and you and I have known each other for a long time, Feng Xian has nothing to do with Yuan Shao, and Yuan Shao's employment only depends on family background, so Feng Xian might as well think about it, in the future I will be the opponent of the world You are in favor, or Yuan Shao is in the world?"

Lu Bu gritted his teeth and kept silent, but he knew very clearly in his heart that although Li Yi was not a thing, he was calculating everywhere, but his methods were not ruthless. Even if he didn't kill Dong Zhuo and Liu Biao, what about Yuan Shao?Even Han Fu can't stand it, Li Yi should be stronger in this respect.

When he got here, Li Yi felt that the fire was almost ready, so he said bluntly: "So, maybe the matter of Yanzhou will be put down first?"

Lu Bu clenched his fists, he was struggling in his heart, he was definitely not reconciled, and he did listen to Li Yi's so-called truth, but, as a man, how can such things be easily let go?

If it weren't for the fact that Li Yi was too powerful and his own people were fluctuating, Lu Bu couldn't see the slightest chance of winning, otherwise Lu Bu would have to fight Li Yi to be at ease.

Li Yi was not in a hurry, so he silently waited for Lu Bu to make a decision. After a while, Lu Bu spoke slowly and asked, "How do you plan to arrange me?"

Li Yi glanced at Lu Bu and replied, "I'm looking for a manor in Jingzhou for Fengxian."

"what!"

Before Li Yi could finish speaking, Lu Bu interrupted loudly, and the fist that was about to be released was clenched again.

In Lu Bu's mind, his martial arts were so strong that no one in the world could match him. Even Guan Yu, who made him care a little bit, died in battle. A fierce general like him, Li Yi, must be reused. Let him lead the army to conquer the Quartet. A matter of course.

However, Li Yi unexpectedly, actually left the general unused, but sent him to retire for the elderly. You must know that he is only in his 30s now, and it is the age of a man, so what kind of thing is it to let him be idle for the elderly!

Lu Bu was ashamed and angry. He asked that sentence, which basically meant that he was subdued, but Li Yi made an inch of it. Although he didn't want to become king and emperor, he also had his own revenge, such as conferring marquis and worshiping generals. Li Yi's previous words meant that he was willing to be named a Marquis for him in the future, but a Marquis who came based on his relationship was not as important as a Marquis who was defeated by military exploits.

So, Lu Bu was angry again, furious!

Seeing Lu Bu's furious appearance, Li Yi sighed secretly. He really wanted to ask Lu Bu, with the matter of Ding Yuan, Dong Zhuo, and Cao Cao in front of him, didn't he think about it?

It's just that there is no way to say this, otherwise Lu Bu will really turn his face.

Li Yi didn't speak, but Lu Bu started to make up his own brain. He looked at the injury on his arm, suddenly understood, and then asked: "What do you think these small injuries can do to me? Call here to try and see how many rounds they can go under me!"

Li Yi pursed his lips and remained silent. What Lu Bu said, it was Dianwei Xu Chu outside, and in Lu Bu's current state, he could not go for a few rounds in his hands.

In fact, Li Yi had serious discussions about Lu Bu's arrangement.

During the initial discussions, some people thought that Lu Bu could continue to serve as the prefect of Dongjun. When Li Yi and Yuan Shao competed in the future, Lu Bu could feign surrender and use Dongjun as a bait to lure Yuan Shao's main force across the river, and then gather and annihilate them.

However, there are quite a few people, including Li Yi, who do not agree with this idea, because Lv Bu is capricious and easily moved by other people's words. In the future, Lv Bu's stay in Dongjun can certainly be used as a pawn for feigning surrender, but once Yuan Shao makes a huge profit Temptation, there is no guarantee that the false surrender will not turn into a real surrender, or even trick Li Yi in turn, then the gain outweighs the loss.

In the end, considering that Li Yi already had an obvious advantage over Yuan Shao, there was really no need to take the risk and use Lu Bu as a strategy. Therefore, in the end, everyone came to a result, which was to remove Lu Bu from military power and put him in the rear for retirement.

And Li Yi came to see Lu Bu today, not so much to persuade Lu Bu to give up Yanzhou honestly, but rather to let Lu Bu accept the fate of retirement.

Li Yi lowered his head and pretended not to see Lu Bu's dissatisfaction. After a while, he pointed to the wine jar beside him and said, "Will you know my prohibition order?"

Lu Bu frowned slightly, wondering why Li Yi said this.

Li Yi sighed: "My achievements today are all due to the rigorous management of the army. Today I just issued a prohibition order, and you drink a few jars at a time. It is considered a hundred cups. If you drink a cup, you will be fined a hundred stones. Put up a list saying that you violated the prohibition order and fined [-] shi, would you like it?"

Lu Bu's eyes were wide open, like a copper bell, he blurted out, "How dare you!"

Li Yi didn't think too much, and asked instead: "The generals under my command, no matter how talented they are, or how much they have done, they all obey me. I also have clear rewards and punishments. Someone made a mistake and never tolerated it. Fengxian broke my ban today. It can be said that you are arrogant and indulgent, and Fengxian has led troops far longer than me, so I dare to ask Fengxian, if there are generals like this, can they be reused?"

"I"

Lu Bu was at a loss for words, he drank to displease Li Yi on purpose, he didn't believe that Li Yi really dared to publicly punish him, but what he didn't expect was that Li Yi used this incident to run on him in turn.

Of course, Lu Bu could choose to bow his head and accept the punishment, but he absolutely couldn't afford to lose that person.

Distraught, Lu Bu's eyes wandered, and suddenly, he saw the wine bowl in front of Li Yi, his eyes lit up, and he pointed to the wine bowl and said, "Don't blame me, haven't you been drinking too? How to explain?"

Chapter 688

Hearing Lu Bu's rhetorical question, Li Yi was slightly surprised at first, and then couldn't help laughing out loud.

Lu Bu originally wanted to run on Li Yi and make him unable to step down, but he didn't expect Li Yi to react like this. He felt inexplicably ashamed and angry, and said, "Why are you laughing?"

Li Yi shook his head, as if he was laughing too hard, and took a breath before saying: "It seems that Fengxian still doesn't understand some things. Those rules are true, but at the root, they are just It’s just a way to restrain others, not to limit myself. Hehe, if I lead by example, I will be a role model for everyone, but if I do my own way, it is only natural. I started from scratch and established a foundation, and now tens of thousands of people look up to me and look at my face... Feng Xian might as well think about it, in this Yanzhou, who can say that I am wrong, or who dares to say that I am wrong? "

Lu Bu was stunned, listening to Li Yi's seemingly natural, yet superior, and even arrogant words, he really wanted to refute, saying that Li Yi's words were unreasonable. Swallowed it back.

Lu Bu can imagine that as long as he dares to refute, Li Yi can use his great achievements for the country and the people to crush him to death.

Seeing that Lv Bu was listless, Li Yi picked up the wine jar, filled a bowl for Lv Bu again, and asked, "Fengxian is brave and powerful, which is rare in this world, and this martial skill alone is enough to make a fortune in this troubled world." , but there are a lot of troubles in doing things first, why?"

Lu Bu blurted out subconsciously, "Why?"

Obviously, Lu Bu himself did not understand this question.

Putting down the wine jar, Li Yi said: "Because Fengxian didn't understand how to stand in troubled times, let alone how to act decisively as a leader."

Lu Bu frowned, hesitated to speak, his expression showed dissatisfaction, Li Yi immediately denied him and didn't say anything, and this kind of tone of educating students made him very uncomfortable, but Lu Bu had to press his heart down. Impetuous, waiting for Li Yi's next words.

However, Li Yi stopped talking, and changed the subject and said: "Indeed, what happened in Yanzhou this time was my inappropriate behavior. I even used Fengxian a lot when I dealt with Dong Zhuo and contained Cao Cao before. Among them, Fengxian also has gains and losses, but it is true that I have calculated first, I am sorry for Fengxian, and I will punish myself."

Li Yi picked up the wine jar and took a big sip, then continued: "It's because I feel sorry for Fengxian that I won't let you continue to lead troops, because..."

Li Yi paused, met Lu Bu's complex eyes, and said slowly: "Because I want to accomplish great things, the generals under my command must be completely trustworthy, and Fengxian... Actually, Fengxian should be lucky. If I invite you today If Fengxian continues to lead the army, then sooner or later Fengxian will suffer disaster."

"you--"

Lu Bu's breathing suddenly became heavy. Although Li Yi was frank, he couldn't change the fact of the threat.

Li Yi continued on his own: "So, Fengxian went to live in Jingzhou here. Although it seems cold, he can keep Fengxian half of his life safe and sound, and his descendants can be princes forever, and rest with the country. Isn't that so Is it far better than hard work and hard work, where misfortune and fortune are unpredictable?"

Lu Bu clenched his fists and endured, but in the end he couldn't hold back, and said through gritted teeth: "Are you really so cruel that you don't care about Luoyang's friendship at all?"

Li Yi rubbed the wine bowl, and said in a low voice: "This is the strategy of the superior, and it is also the way to get things done in troubled times. I have always acted like this, so I have today's Chen Jiu, but Feng didn't understand it first. That's why we have today's situation." .”

"you--"

Lu Bu was so angry that Li Yi couldn't speak. At this time, he was both angry and ashamed of being forced by Li Yi, and also unwilling to be powerless.

After a while, the anger in Lu Bu's eyes began to subside, but the expression on his face became colder and colder. Sensing the change in Lu Bu, Li Yi looked at Lu Bu in surprise. He felt that Lu Bu's temperament seemed to have returned to the past, but Soon, Li Yi looked away, because no matter what kind of Lu Bu, what can he do to him?

Lu Bu breathed out a sigh of frustration, and asked in a deep voice: "You persecute me so much, aren't you afraid that I will die?"

"Ugh."

Li Yi sighed, and said: "Since ancient times, generals have turned their backs and changed their flags. Most of them were bribed by alienation. However, Wei Xu, Hao Meng and others under Fengxian's command, I never took the initiative to hit their ideas. They came to me by themselves. You It can be said that they have no loyalty and follow the trend, but is this not the general trend? The general trend is mine, how can Feng Xian be caught in the dark?"

"I still have……"

When Lu Bu wanted to speak, Li Yi interrupted directly: "Fengxian still has Gao Shun. Indeed, Gao Shun is willing to die for Fengxian, but how many people under Gao Shun's command are willing to die for Fengxian?"
