Dragon of the Three Kingdoms

However, Jiang Gan was unscrupulous, and immediately praised: "My lord hosted a banquet before the battle, such hospitality is admirable, but it's a pity that Yuan Shao has no guts, and failed the lord's heart in vain."

Li Yi's expression froze slightly, and the others looked at Jiang Gan as if they were looking at something indescribable. They never expected that someone would be so shameless just to flatter him.

Li Yi endured it for a while, but finally couldn't help but burst out laughing, patted Jiang Gan's shoulder affectionately, and said with a smile: "Zi Yi said well, why don't you let Zi Yi cross the river and send invitations to Yuan Shao, how about it?"

Jiang Gan's face turned green all of a sudden, and he looked at Li Yi eagerly, not daring to speak anymore.

Some time ago, Li Yi asked Lu Su to follow Li Jue to ask for a decree against thieves, not just to ask for a teacher to be famous, but to give Yuan Shao and the entire Yuan family a big hat that can crush the reputation of "four generations and three princes" .

First, starting from the Yellow Turban Rebellion, Li Yi linked this matter with the Yuan family, and there was no evidence to create evidence to prove that the Yuan family played a very disgraceful role in it, and the purpose was even more sinister. It is necessary to subvert the Han Dynasty.

Just looking at this matter is not a big deal. Everyone knows that Li Yi is splashing dirty water. Without more than ten years of indoctrination and brainwashing in the past, it is not convincing at all. Sorry, after all, it was copied by the emperor, so it has to be somewhat reasonable.

Then, the following content began to be extraordinary.

Li Yi said that Dong Zhuo's entry into Luoyang was planned by the Yuan family, and the general He Jin was deceived by him. He Jin's death was also the result of the collusion of the eunuchs by the Yuan family. The purpose was to replace him. To silence.

The Yuan family was ambitious and wanted to control Luoyang in one fell swoop, but they miscalculated one thing. Dong Zhuo was also a tiger and wolf, and he did not become the butcher knife in the hands of the Yuan family as he did. In the end, the Yuan family's plan fell through, and they had to retreat to Jizhou and start anew. Start layout.

This paragraph was seen by Li Yi on the Internet in later generations, and he changed it and copied it. Although there is no real evidence, if you don't study it carefully, it makes perfect sense.

Both Li Jue and Guo Si were dumbfounded. When Lu Su asked them, he hesitated, obviously not sure about the relationship between Dong Zhuo and Yuan Shao.

At this time, it would be a bit scary to go back and look at the first article. The Yuan family probably, perhaps, really planned it for decades?

People are afraid of doubts, and after doubts, they will make up their minds, which is very remarkable. Not only Li Jue and Guo Si were confused, but the little emperor also believed a lot. Originally, when Li Jue told him to copy the imperial decree, the little emperor still gritted his teeth I wanted to protest, but after seeing the content, I decisively wrote down everything without missing a word.

Li Yi was a professional scapegoat, and Yuan Shao was blamed for many things afterwards.

The Eighteenth Princes’ campaign against Dong became Yuan Shao’s conspiracy to weaken Dong Zhuo and eliminate the world’s heroes. Later, Yuan Shu’s proclaiming the king, and various things that happened in Hebei, and even Cao Cao’s massacre in Xuzhou, all became Yuan Shao’s handwriting, no? What Yuan Shao did himself was secretly instigated by his orders.

In short, this edict, Li Yi, was aimed at destroying people. Although there was no blood, it pressed the Yuan family's face in the mud pit and rubbed it repeatedly.

Anyone who knows the situation knows that if Yuan Shao loses to Li Yi this time, even if Li Yi doesn't exterminate the Yuan family, the Yuan family's reputation and management for hundreds of years will inevitably be destroyed, which is not much different from the extermination of the Yuan family.

In all fairness, what Li Yi did was unethical, but Jiang Gan and the others, as Li Yi's subordinates, naturally wouldn't say anything, but as Yuan Shao, being so slandered and framed by others, his anger can be imagined, Jiang Gan estimated himself In the past, as Li Yi's close minister, it was very possible to be stewed alive by Yuan Shao.

Although Li Yi would definitely not send Jiang Gan to his death in such a cruel way, but Jiang Gan must be sincere and fearful, otherwise he would be clear about everything, calm and calm, so what use would Li Yi be?

Sure enough, Li Yi laughed out loud at Jiang Gan's trickery, and immediately, Li Yi ordered someone to call Huang Zhong, and asked the sergeant to prepare a few small dishes for a drink, and as for inviting Yuan Shao to a banquet or something, pour a glass into the Yellow River Drinks are just fine.

Soon, the food and drink were ready, but Huang Zhong didn't come for a long time. Li Yi was about to send someone to ask, but Huang Zhong's personal guards sent news that there was a ship coming from the other side with unknown intentions. Huang Zhong was delayed by this matter up.

The Yellow River is not as stable as the Yangtze River, and its waters are more ferocious. Ever since Li Yi ordered Huang Zhong to build a ship for the garrison in East Afghanistan, there have been no large-scale water conflicts between the two sides. The occasional confrontations were all sneak attacks by light boats, and most of them were at night. occur.

Curious, Li Yi found a high ground and looked towards the pier. Sure enough, he saw a small boat slowly docking under the "escort" of his two ships.

Continuing to watch, Li Yi couldn't help showing a slightly weird smile on his face, because an acquaintance, Guo Tu, got off the boat.

It's all this time, what is Guo Tu doing here?

Surrender, seek peace, or start a debate with him in a dignified way?

Li Yi smiled, called Yu Fan to whisper a few words, and then did the job next to him, closed his eyes and rested, and waited quietly.

After about one stick of incense, Huang Zhong came over, followed naturally by Guo Tu.

Although Huang Zhong was a bit arrogant, he didn't like to bully the weak. Guo Tu claimed to be Yuan Shao's envoy, and his attitude was honest.

When he arrived at Li Yi's side, Huang Zhong glanced at Yu Fan who was "watching the door" in surprise, nodded, and continued to meet Li Yi, but when it was Guo Tu's turn, Guo Tu was about to make friends with Yu Fanpan, but It was Yu Fan who grabbed him and took him to the back of the small forest.

Huang Zhong glanced back, his expression was slightly weird, but he didn't join in.

"What is Zhongxiang doing?"

Guo Tu was under a lot of pressure when he went on a mission this time. At first, he was a little lucky to see Yu Fan who was familiar with him. He wanted to ask Li Yi how he was feeling, but he didn't want to be brought directly by Yu Fan. On one side, and Yu Fan's serious face immediately gave him a very bad feeling.

Yu Fan seemed to be in a hurry, without even reminiscing about the past, he asked straight to the point: "Brother Guo is here to beg for surrender?"

Although Guo Tu was under a lot of pressure, and he was ready to be humiliated and run on by Li Yi, but when Yu Fan opened his mouth to beg for surrender, he couldn't help but feel angry, and with a sullen face, he said coldly: "It's so ridiculous! If you say it, Zhongxiang is not afraid of humiliating his identity!"

Yu Fan was not annoyed by Guo Tu's sarcasm, and he continued on his own: "Brother Guo, if you want to beg for surrender, I should speak well for Brother Guo in front of the lord, and I will ask for wealth and honor for Brother Guo, but, If Brother Guo is doing it for other things, for the sake of our old friendship, I will personally send Brother Guo back to the ship!"

Guo Tu's complexion changed again, and he asked in surprise, "Why?"

Yu Fan took a deep breath, and then sighed: "My lord's army of millions is lined up by the river. The soldiers are fighting high-spirited battles. There are thousands of civil servants and military generals. Everyone wants to repay my lord's kindness with death. One key thing is missing, does Brother Guo know what is missing?"

"What, what?"

Guo Tu's words suddenly became a bit unfavorable. Although he was usually quick-witted, but this time he had to bite the bullet and his heart was messed up.

Yu Fan looked left and right, got closer, and said in a low voice, "I'm short of a head to sacrifice the flag!"

"hiss--"

Guo Tu gasped, took two steps back abruptly, staggered, and almost fell over.

Yu Fan looked at Guo Tu's panicked expression, and said with a caring face: "That's the way it is. I've told you the truth. How to make a decision depends entirely on Brother Guo's own decision."

After all, Yu Fan patted Guo Tu's shoulder vigorously as if saying goodbye, and went back to "watch the door".

Guo Tu was really scared. From the bottom of his heart, he really wanted to turn around and leave, because he didn't plan to come this time, but after Xu You hit a wall, he walked a few times at Li Yi's place. If Yuan Shao didn't choose him as an envoy, who else could he choose?

However, Guo Tu struggled a lot, but in the end he didn't dare to go back. When he went back, he became a cowardly villain. If he was to be laughed at by Li Yi, Yuan Shao looked down on him even more.

And if you bite the bullet and come to see Li Yi, you may not really die.

After calming down a bit, Guo Tu could easily guess that Yu Fan was deliberately scaring him to help Li Yi get ahead.

However, even if he can figure it out in his heart, the reality has already made him "defeat before fighting", and many prepared strategies are not easy to use again. Next, he can only ask for help.

After a while, Guo Tu slowly came to Yu Fan's side, pursed his lips and said nothing, Yu Fan didn't continue to put on airs, pointed forward, and led Guo Tu forward, where Li Yi was talking with Huang clink glasses.

"Guo Tu, I have met the general!"

Guo Tu bowed to Li Yi, looked quietly to the left and right, and saw dozens of civil and military people around Li Yi, no matter whether they had seen or not, all of them had a calm temperament and high spirits, guarding Li Yi among them, showing A thriving trend.

Guo Tu had seen this kind of situation before, when Yuan Shao won Jizhou and recruited talents from Hebei Province, now, the difference between the two sides is hard to calculate.

"Give a seat!"

Naturally, Li Yi would not really sacrifice Guo Tu to the flag. After ordering people to watch the seats, he asked with a smile: "Why are you here? Hehe, you and I are old acquaintances. If you want anything, just ask, as long as I can Help, I will never refuse, of course, if I can't help, hehe..."

Chapter 760 It's time to start

Guo Tu's face turned red immediately, and Li Yi's words sounded polite at first glance, but in fact they didn't give him any face.

Yuan Shao's original purpose of this trip was just to let Guo Tu test Li Yi's attitude. Although he didn't expect Li Yi to stop before the battle, at least one more day would count as a day. Li Yi has a lot of people, so the cost of the garrison is naturally high. much higher.
