On dog days, a team of fast horses galloped like the wind and went straight to the Xiliang camp.

The gate was wide open, and the group went straight into the camp, and only stopped when they ran to the big tent of the Chinese army.

"The lord has been running around for days, and the last general is too late to greet him, and he begs for forgiveness."

In front of the stone steps of the big tent, Zhou Yu, Fa Zheng, Zhao Yun, Huang Zhong and others rushed to hear the news, and Zhou Yu led the way and bowed.

"Gongjin doesn't need to be polite, everyone will get up and follow me into the account to talk."

Flying down from the back of the Golden Lion Beast King, Li Li exhaled lightly, wiped the hot sweat on his forehead, raised his hand to signal Zhou Yu and the others not to be formal, and then strode up the stone steps and walked into the handsome tent.

After a little freshening up, changing into a thin brocade robe, Li Li appeared in the big tent again, sat casually, and drank tea slowly to relieve the heat.

"Can the lord make this trip smooth? No one in Chang'an City is causing trouble, right? "The people present in the hall are all close generals under Li Li, and Zhou Yu asked directly, without scruples.

Li Li bowed his head slightly, and sighed in a deep voice: "The two old generals returned to heaven, and the great man lost the pillar of optimus. At this juncture, the Son of Heaven and the hundred officials are nowhere to be seen, life and death are unknown, and the situation in the world will change dramatically again. The coming autumn is destined to be an eventful one! ”

Zhou Yu nodded when he heard this, and said with regret: "Huangfu Song and Zhu Jun are the only two famous generals in the world who have been successful in my Han Dynasty, and I don't think that the two old generals died one after another within half a month, which is a pity!" ”

After a pause, Zhou Yu said with a solemn expression: "For a long time in the future, the situation in the world will be turbulent and turbulent. Unpredictable. At this turbulent time, we should work steadily and steadily, step by step. Don't rush it, lest you make a mistake and miss out on a great situation. I don't know what happens under the Lord's will? ”

"Hmm." Li Li responded casually, squinted his eyes and looked at Zhou Yu for a moment, and said thoughtfully: "What Gong Jin said is exactly what I want." No matter how the situation in the world changes, our Xiliang Army or Xiliang Army is as solid as a rock. There will be no turmoil with it; And I, Li Li, am still the general of the world's soldiers and horses, and this will not change for a long time in the future, and no one can shake half a point! ”

Speaking of which. Li Li waved his hand and said, "Okay, let's talk about it, let's talk about how the war is going in front of us." As for other things, the soldiers will block the water and come to the earth. I, Li Li, and the Xiliang Army under my command have never been afraid of challenges. No matter if any opponent dares to provoke us, our Xiliang army will swear to crush it to pieces. ”

Li Li's resounding words stirred in the handsome tent, and it was exciting to listen to, and the blood was boiling.

In the hall, Zhou Yu and Fa Zheng glanced at each other, nodded at each other, and nodded to the generals around them, and then everyone got up and knelt down and said, "The lord is wise." It's really a blessing for us, a blessing for millions of people in Xiliang! ”

This worship is no accident. It is the result of careful consideration by the civil and military forces of Xiliang in the recent period, and it is also their voice.

Since the Son of Heaven and the officials of the court and the central government fled Chang'an, the western capital of Chang'an existed in name only. Today, the Son of Heaven Liu Xie and the old ministers of the three dynasties have become a stumbling block in front of Li Li and the Xiliang people, and the three princes and nine ministers and their subordinates only have so many positions, all of which are controlled by the old ministers of the court. At the same time, if they are all eliminated openly, they will be reviled by the whole world, and they will be infamous through the ages; If it is allowed to develop, it will greatly hinder the subsequent development of Xiliang and forcibly suppress the promotion of Xiliang's civil and military forces.

Therefore, when the Western Liang army smashed the alliance of the Central Plains princes and won a great victory, the power struggle between the civil and military forces of the Western Liang and the hundred officials of the court and the central government became prominent, and the contradictions became increasingly intensified. In this way, Chang'an City is noisy, the situation is weird, and the undercurrent is turbulent, and many Xiliang generals and civil officials have a lot of whispers about this, but they don't dare to mention it in front of Li Li, and they dare not speak out.

This can be seen from the official ranks of the main civil and military generals under Li Lifeng's rule, such as Li Xuan, Jia Xu, Li Ru, Guo Jia and Zhou Yu and a large number of humerus ministers, as well as Li Xian, Teng Xiao, Dian Wei, Huan Fei, Xu Rong, Bo Cai and Ma Chao and other major generals, all of them are the same rank as Jiuqing (Yu Lu), but they do not have a substantive position of Jiuqing or above, and can only concurrently lead the post of Jing Zhaoyin or Zhou Assassin. In this regard, they are all Li Li's close confidants, so naturally they will not have any complaints, but it doesn't matter if they are suppressed, the important thing is that the subordinates under their jurisdiction do not have this kind of treatment, and they can't raise their official positions and salaries. In this way, it would be undoubtedly self-deception to say that these subordinates did not complain.

Those who are officials, whether they are clean or glorious, cannot escape the word "fame and fortune", not for wealth, but for fame, and if not for fame, they will seek profit. It is not that there are officials who really do not seek fame or profit, but they are very rare, and there are very few. Throughout the 5,000-year history of China, fame and fortune run through the annals of history and have never changed.

In the troubled times, those who are officials are more realistic, there are those who have wives and children, there are those who are famous all over the world, there are many people who win glory and wealth, and there are not a few people who try to change their fate. Therefore, when Li Li was a great minister, the military generals who followed him to fight the world naturally had their own expectations. However, the existence of the Chinese military officials of the DPRK blocked their way to promotion, and blocking people's future was tantamount to a great enmity of life and death, and this contradiction could not be reconciled, and it was bound to be a desperate struggle to break the net.

As the commander of Xiliang, Li Li naturally knew this, and then tried his best to plan a solution. If he can't even think of this, then he will be the commander in chief, and sooner or later he will be replaced.

So, soon after, the Son of Heaven and the hundred officials fled Chang'an, trying to completely get rid of Li Li's control, revitalize the Han Dynasty, and rebuild the Han Empire. As soon as the Son of Heaven and the hundred officials escaped from the cage, although Li Li strictly ordered the entire territory of Xiliang to be blocked and no one was allowed to leak it, the news still spread quickly among the civil and military forces in Xiliang. Therefore, the Son of Heaven and the hundred officials left on the front foot, and then many Xiliang officials jointly signed a letter to persuade Li Li to change the Yuan Dynasty and establish the supreme state; If the persuasion is successful, then the Xiliang officials will immediately rise, and the day of the addition of officials to the knighthood is just around the corner.

The temptation to reign over the world is not great. This is self-evident. At that time, under Dong Zhuo's rule, there were only Jingzhao Sanfu and Si Li, so he thought about ascending the throne, position and supreme all day long, and reigning in the world. For this reason, Dong Zhuo took his own life and became a national thief with a corpse in a different place, which was notorious and spurned by the world. Now Li Li has several times the territory and strength of Dong Zhuo in the past, and he is truly the first prince in the world, so he has the strength to reign over the world, and he will not repeat Dong Zhuo's mistakes. Thus. The joint persuasion of many subordinates in Xiliang is not impulsive, nor is it nonsense, but conforms to the current situation. There is a great possibility of success in one fell swoop.

As the undercurrent of persuasion became more and more ferocious, the cronies and generals and strategists under Li Li became more and more uneasy, and Liu Xie, the son of heaven, was not dead. I was in a hurry to persuade him. Such a move for quick success and quick profit is by no means a good strategy for the country. Therefore, they had mixed feelings, and felt that the time was not yet ripe, lest the lord Li Li would not be able to resist the great temptation of the king of the world, and agreed to the joint invitation of many subordinates, and openly changed the Yuan to open the country and ascend the throne as the emperor, which would be a big deal.

Then they sent fast horses to the Yangping Guan camp, and handwritten letters were delivered to Zhou Yu, Fa Zheng, Zhao Yun, Huang Zhong and Ma Chao. The letter made it clear: If the situation is strange and unpredictable today, who dares to take the lead in claiming hegemony. It will be the target of the people, and they will rise up and attack it, and their destruction will be imminent. To this end, they entrusted Zhou Yu, Fa Zheng, Zhao Yun and other close generals to advise the lord Li Li to put the overall situation first, and at present to maintain stability as the top priority, Xu Tu is enterprising, lay a solid foundation, and must not take the position lightly, otherwise the good situation in Xiliang will be ruined.

The reason why Zhou Yu and Fa Zheng were entrusted with persuasion was because most of the Xiliang officials who jointly persuaded were subordinates of Li Xuan, Jia Xu, Li Ru, Guo Jia and others, which made it inconvenient for them to go to the Yangping Guan camp to meet Li Li in person. After all, this kind of bad guy's future is extremely hated, and if these subordinates know that their immediate boss has ruined their path to promotion, how will they work together in the future?

However, the persuasion of Zhou Yu and Fa Zheng and others will not attract envy, because since ancient times, there has been a saying of "three advances and three words". Therefore, the advice of Zhou Yu, Fa Zheng and others is within their duty, which is reasonable and not excessive.

However, Li Li's loud statement of attitude blocked the way of persuasion of officials in one fell swoop. Since then, no one will dare to persuade them lightly for a long time.

——————— small dividing lines—————————

With the generals leaving one after another, only Zhou Yu, Fa Zheng, Pei Qian, Li Zhi and Li Li were left in the tent.

Got up and walked to the hall to sit with Zhou Yu and the others, a faint smile appeared on Li Li's face, and he asked Fa Zheng, "How is the progress of what Xiaozhi is planning?" ”

Hearing this, Fa Zheng showed an affirmative smile on his face, and said respectfully: "一qiēshun lì." According to the time calculation, the results should be revealed in these two days. ”

"That's very good." Li Li smiled and said frankly: "At present, time is pressing, the battle of Hanzhong has been four months now, and it cannot be delayed any longer, and it must be resolved quickly." To tell you nothing, according to the scheduled time, the Son of Heaven and the hundred officials will flee from the territory of our Xiliang Army in a month, that is, in autumn, and return to Luoyang in the east. At that time, the Son of Heaven will definitely issue an edict to King Qin, and summon all the princes from all walks of life to gather in Luoyang in a vain attempt to exterminate us. However, after the defeat of the Central Plains Alliance in the previous round, the princes of all walks of life should not respond to the order of the Son of Heaven and dare not openly make enemies of my Li Li.

In contrast, they are more interested in the Son of Heaven, and they are determined to succeed and ambitious. After all, the Son of Heaven exerted great power under our control, raising millions of money and food for our Xiliang army, driving all the princes of the world to run for their lives. Seeing this, they all realized the great role of the Son of Heaven and the hundred officials, and they would never give up lightly. Such an unprecedented event that has not been encountered in a century, how can we miss it, and no matter what, we have to mix it in, which is bound to muddy this pool. Only in this way can we fish in troubled waters, otherwise the princes of the world will stare at my Xiliang Army all day long, what else can we do? ”

Zhou Yu, Fa Zheng and Pei Qian were dumbfounded and dumbfounded when they heard this, and then Zhou Yu sincerely admired: "This is the real fragrant bait fishing for golden ao, throwing out the Son of Heaven and hundreds of officials to mobilize all the princes from all walks of life, and the wolves will seize the food, which will inevitably lead to a big scuffle." The lord's move is really wise, and the end will be obedient! ”
