Dragon of the Three Kingdoms

"Please come quickly, sir!"

Anticipation appeared again in Yuan Shao's eyes. Before this, the people around him were helpless about the problem in front of him, and since Ju Shou dared to speak, he presumably had something to rely on.

Ju Shou looked at Yuan Shao and said softly: "My subordinates have two strategies, one is to demote Li Yi."

Yuan Shao's expression was blank, he felt something wrong with his ears, he couldn't believe it: "What did you say?"

Ju Shou didn't panic, and explained slowly: "My lord, don't you know that Goujian destroyed Wu?"

Without waiting for Yuan Shao to answer, Ju Shou continued: "Li Yi has achieved today's great achievements in the body of a commoner. It is indeed powerful, but its disadvantages are also obvious. Without the help of relatives, most of the married families are afraid of his power. More importantly, Li Yi Now that there are no heirs, the Central Plains is like a tall building built on the ground to Li Yi. Although it is magnificent and magnificent, it lacks foundation. To have a useful body, once Li Yi changes internally, it will be the time for the lord to rise again."

Following Jushou's talk, Yuan Shao's expression gradually softened, as if he was seriously thinking about the feasibility of this matter. However, Jushou then said something cruel enough to make Yuan Shao despair.

"It's just that there is a premise for all of these. It depends on whether Li Yi is the king of Wu or Gaozu. The former is fine, and the latter"

Ju Shou didn't say anything about the rest, but Yuan Shao knew that it must be cutting the weeds and eradicating the roots.

Jushou looked at Yuan Shao, wanting to know Yuan Shao's attitude towards this, but after a long time, Yuan Shao never said a word, Jushou knew that it was impossible for Yuan Shao to make this choice.

Ju Shou secretly sighed. In fact, he didn't say anything else. If Yuan Shao surrendered, Li Yi might attack Yuan Shao, but Yuan Shao's heirs should be preserved, at least part of them.

But even if it is Ju Shou, this kind of words cannot be said.

So, Ju Shou said again: "I have another plan, please order the lord to burn the wharf and the boats on the river bank, and then use all the soldiers and horses on the south bank of the Yellow River to go to Qingzhou to fight Li Yi to the death day and night!"

"What, give up the Yellow River?"

Yuan Shao already knew that his ears were fine, but he felt that Jushou's brain was broken, otherwise how could he come up with such a crazy idea?

Ju Shou was unmoved by Yuan Shao's doubts, and explained: "It's the same reason as before, Li Yi has no heirs, as long as the lord can defeat Li Yi, or even kill Li Yi in Qingzhou, even if Xu Huang and Huang Zhong take the opportunity to fight After entering the Yellow River, it will be just a mess in the end. Moreover, although the lord's army is not as strong as Li Yi, if he uses all the troops of the Yellow River to fight against Li Yi's main force on the East Road, even if the number is not as good, the difference will definitely not be too big. Therefore, It has a chance."

Yuan Shao lowered his head and thought for a moment, then suddenly asked: "If all the soldiers and horses go to Qingzhou, but fail to kill Li Yi, what should we do in the future?"

Ju Shou couldn't help but smiled wryly and said: "If you win, everything will be fine, but if you lose in Qingzhou, you will lose, so what's the future?"

"This"

Yuan Shao's expression was tangled and he was speechless.

In theory, what Jushou said was indeed a solution, although it was also bad to a certain extent, after all, he took the initiative to withdraw from the Yellow River defense line, and then bet everything to bet his life with Li Yi.

This is not a choice that a wise man should make. However, the situation is such that this is already one of the few choices that has a chance of winning.

However, Yuan Shao had no idea about defeating Li Yi, not to mention anything else, the Liannu alone made him wonder how to defend against it.

This trip, in the end is to fight for life, or to die?

Seeing that Yuan Shao did not make a statement, Ju Shou couldn't help but said: "Master, we are running out of time, and now there is still the Eldest Young Master holding back in Qingzhou, and there is still time to mobilize troops, but once the Eldest Young Master is defeated, Li Yi's army will start to move. , Xu Huang and Huang Zhong are prepared, my lord doesn't even have this chance!"

Jushou solemnly bowed down to Yuan Shao, hoping that Yuan Shao could adopt his suggestion. This was also the main purpose of Jushou's trip to see Yuan Shao overnight, but Yuan Shao was still struggling and still couldn't make a decision.

In the end, after an unknown amount of time, Yuan Shao suddenly asked, "How long can Ye City store food to support the army?"

This question was so abrupt that Jushou was taken aback for a moment, then suddenly thought of something, looked at Yuan Shao in disbelief, and blurted out: "My lord, do you want to go back to Yecheng!"

Chapter 771 Surrender

"My lord, the city of Pingyuan has been surrounded by our army. Just now a group of troops tried to break out from the west gate, but were captured by the last general. After inspection, they were ordered to ask Yuan Shao for help."

Xu Chu handed the seized letter to Li Yi, and he naturally chased after Li Yi after crossing the river. Although he was still in charge of Li Yi's security work in name, Li Yi arranged for him to lead the troops, so that Xu Chu could also get involved. Military merit, otherwise how would he be named a Marquis in the future?

There are still many people who have been given special treatment by Li Yi, and they are all loyal, but due to various reasons, those who have not contributed much are now all taken care of by Li Yi.

Li Yi took the letter and opened it to read. Although Yuan Tan sincerely hoped that Yuan Shao would come to save him, he also explained another situation. If things cannot be done and there is no manpower available in Jizhou, then please don’t worry about Yuan Shao. He will stick to the plain and try to drag Li Yi here.

In the end, Yuan Tan also added some words of filial piety, which made people feel not bad, much better than Li Yi thought.

Li Yi was noncommittal, shook the paper in his hand, and asked Wei Yan who was on the side: "Is this also sold by Wen Chang? It's all now, and our eldest son is still using it."

The civil and military behind Li Yi laughed, the atmosphere was very relaxed, and there was no tension during the siege.

After ambushing 4000 people with the cooperation of Kong Shun that day, Li Yi marched all the way to Pingyuan County. Why didn't it.

Under such circumstances, it is conceivable that the hearts of the people in Pingyuan County are bad. Before Li Yi started to attack, there were already deserters. Even one of Chunyu Qiong's generals sent someone out to contact Li Yi, expressing his hope to submit to the general. I hope that when Li Yi is attacking the city, he will cooperate with the outside world,

However, this kind of surrender is just a trivial matter. Everyone around Li Yi knows that Ping Yuan has made a decision, because it is not just Kong Shun who wants to sell Yuan Tan? There is also Hua Yan who is squatting in the city? This is Yuan Tan's. cronies.

Looking at the city in front of him? Li Yi waved to Kong Shun, who hurriedly ran to Li Yi with a doggy face, bowed his body, and asked cautiously, "What do you want, my lord?"

Kong Shun's appearance is a bit cheap, and Li Yi doesn't like it, but he does have credit for him, so Li Yi still accepts him, and what's more? Li Yi also considers it from another angle. Bottom line, if you can't be a romantic celebrity, why don't you just let him be a vicious dog? In case someone gets upset in the future? If you don't feel good about yourself, then let this vicious dog go out and bite people? Isn't it beautiful?

Therefore, Li Yi has always regarded Kong Shun as a hero on the surface, and he has never had the slightest contempt and disgust in his speech and contact.

"I will go to the city later to see the eldest son. After all, Yuan Benchu ​​and I are old acquaintances. If Yuan Tan is willing to surrender, it is naturally the best. If not... you can make a secret sign at the west gate and help Zhongkang seize the city. !"

"Here!"

Kong Shun replied heavily, and then added: "The lord is really the lord of benevolence and righteousness. At the beginning, the lord helped Yuan Shao and saved his life from Hua Xiong's sword. Yuan Shao was cruel and did not forget the old love, but the lord never forgot the fate he met once. Have compassion even for his heirs, my lord, benevolence and righteousness!"

Kong Shun's flattery was so ruthless that Li Yi grinned when he slapped him, and other people looked sideways. Some people wanted to say something to Kong Shun, but they thought that this guy was flattering Li Yi, and if he rejected him, he would deny Li Yi. Only then did he not speak.

Li Yi didn't have the idea of ​​being happy or unhappy, he just felt that flattery is a mountain and a mountain is high, and even had the idea of ​​letting this guy write history for him for a moment, but Li Yi dismissed it immediately Ridiculous idea.

As for history, it can be properly guided and artistically processed, which is reasonable and reasonable. However, if someone like Kong Shun is allowed to write, I am afraid that he will directly rewrite or even directly create history. For example, let Liu Biao slaughter Jingzhou, Yuan Shao kill It is extremely possible that there is no one out of ten in Hebei.

Although Li Yi doesn't have much integrity, he still has a basic bottom line in life, and he doesn't even bother to collude with some people.

"Go, this matter is done, and I will give you a big house later."

"Here!"

Kong Shun also knew that it was too late, thanked Li Yi, and licked his face and moved to Xu Chu's side. Xu Chu didn't want to see this guy, but he needed help to break the city, and there was nothing he could do.

When the two left, Zhang Liao couldn't help coming to Li Yi's side, and whispered, "My lord, Kong Shun is such a traitor, a flatterer, this is also..."

Zhang Liao's face was tangled, as if he didn't know how to describe it, after all, it was his first report of beating someone.

Li Yi understood what Zhang Liao was thinking, he smiled, and said, "I understand what Wen Yuan means. If I were still the former Nanyang prefect, I would naturally not tolerate such a person, but what I have to face in the future is the whole world." To govern the world, of course it must be strict, but it must also be appropriately lenient. When the water is clear, there will be no fish. It is not unreasonable. For example, I dare to use Li Jue, Guo Si and others, so it is not as good as Kong Shunhuayan?"

Zhang Liao was speechless for a moment.

Li Yi was willing to recruit Han Sui, and no one had an opinion, but many people explicitly or implicitly expressed disapproval of Li Jue and Guo Si.

Although what Li Yi did was to change the dynasty, it was because the big man had lost his vitality and came to an end by himself. Everyone did not hate the big man, but still had considerable feelings for him.

As Dong Zhuo and his subordinates who hurt the big man the most on the surface, naturally many people want Li Jue and Guo Si to die, and even dismembering the body by five horses cannot relieve their hatred.

Li Yi didn't want to keep them at first, but as his position got higher and higher, from the perspective of the world, and from the perspective of interests, he was able to accommodate Li and Guo.
