――――――

Guo Jia was stunned when he heard this, and looked at Li Li with puzzled eyes, unable to understand the meaning of Li Li's words, and was not sure of Li Li's attitude.

Is this feasible or not, complimenting or denigrating?

However, there is one thing that Guo Jia already has in his heart, that is, the lord Li Li is not angry, and this is enough.

Seeing Guo Jia's puzzled eyes, Li Li smiled faintly and asked, "Did Feng Xiaoke ever think that if I waited for today's defeat, wouldn't what you did be equivalent to indirectly helping the enemy weaken the strength of our army?" ”

"Huh?" Guo Jia was stunned when he heard this, but he quickly shook his head, and said in a respectful voice: "The lord said this, Weichen really can't afford it." However, if it is really as the lord said that our army is defeated, then what Weichen does is even more important, and it is imperative, the sooner the better. ”

"Why? Fengxiao doesn't have to shy away from it, and it doesn't hurt to be outspoken. Li Li said with a slightly stunned expression.

"My lord, if our army is defeated, then the situation we will face next will be very difficult, and even the situation of the entire Xiliang will be turbulent. Under such an unstable situation, the stability of the army is undoubtedly the most important thing, and only with the stability of the army can the entire situation not change much. However, in order to maintain the stability of the army, the first thing to do is to eliminate the factors of instability and eliminate hidden dangers. In the face of this situation, the lord might as well imagine, can people like Hu Zhen, Yang Ding, Wang Fang and others be reliable? Perhaps they will induce the soldiers to mutiny at the first time and endanger the imperial city of Chang'an. This led to turmoil in the entire Xiliang Army, and even large-scale infighting. Therefore, it is imperative to eradicate these dissidents as soon as possible. Don't hesitate, too late will change. ”

"Oh? Is it so strict, why don't I think? Li Li groaned in surprise.

Guo Jia looked at Li Li in amazement, straight and straight, his eyes did not blink. After a while, he shook his head helplessly and smiled bitterly, finally knowing the true meaning of Li Li's repeated questions; It turned out that Li Li asked for the bottom of the question. In fact, it was beating him.

In fact, Li Li was not opposed to getting rid of some vacillating generals in the army, and even had a plan for a long time. As soon as the time comes, you can eliminate hidden dangers in one fell swoop. His thoughts were known to Guo Jia, Jia Xu, Li Xuan, Li Ru and others, and then the four advisors he relied on most formulated a detailed and covert plan, and then successively eliminated some generals with two ambitions. As of now. Most of it has been removed. The rest are some middle- and low-level generals, who are not in much danger and can eliminate hidden dangers without panic.

But they have been hiding this matter and not reporting it, and they have done everything behind Li Li's back. This move undoubtedly touched the bottom line of Li Li's trust in them, which made Li Li very unhappy.

And this is exactly what Guo Jia just said about the way of the emperor. Envy and grace.

Guo Jia didn't notice it in the bureau before, because he couldn't understand Li Li's mind at all. I don't know if Li Li recognizes what they did. But now Guo Jia has completely understood, it can be said that he suddenly realized what kind of monarch and emperor's grace and power control people.

In fact, it was impossible for Li Li not to know about the things planned by Guo Jia, Jia Xu, Li Xuan, and Li Ru before, or Li Li had already noticed it, but he pretended not to know about it, and let them do it. And this is Li Li's trust in their four advisers, and it is also a favor. But after the matter was done, Li Li beat Guo Jia lightly, because Guo Jia was the executor of the plan. This is where the majesty of the superior lies, which makes the subordinates sincerely frightened and uneasy, so that they realize their own mistakes and then fear the Lord.

This is Guo Jia, who has the same interests as Li Li and has a dissolute personality, so Li Li will directly point out the reason and beat him lightly. If it were Li Ru or Li Xuan, they would face Li Li's severe reprimand, and even punishment. And this point Guo Jia can now be determined, after this battle, Li Xuan, Li Ru and Jia Xu will not only not be rewarded and promoted, but will be punished by a certain amount of Chengdù.

This is the end of concealing Li Li and making claims without permission, and Guo Jia has already been punished at the moment, and he will not be punished again. However, it is obvious that Li Li will not punish them too harshly, and the meaning of punishment and vigilance is greater than the punishment itself, after all, they are also doing it for Li Li's sake, although there is no big mistake.

After the false alarm, Guo Jia finally knew that his lord actually understood everything, but he pretended to be confused, and waited until the matter was clear, and then came to settle the account after the autumn.

This is the true way of the emperor, using the art of grace to the extreme, without a shadow and without a trace; It doesn't seem to be very shrewd, but in fact, it's all under control. What he wants to do but is inconvenient to do can be vaguely revealed to his subordinates, and after the matter is done, he will come forward, and let his subordinates be afraid for a while, and then lift it up and put it down gently. In this way, you can achieve your goals without losing your reputation, which is the best of both worlds.

Thinking of these, Guo Jia inexplicably remembered a novel word "belly black" that Li Li once mentioned, he had never understood what the belly black meant, but now he completely understood. It turns out that the lord Li Li is a veritable black-bellied person, or in other words, since ancient times, the monarchs and emperors of all dynasties have been black-bellied, eating people without spitting out bones, and killing people without paying for their lives!

――――――

The big battle was imminent, seeing Guo Jia's thoughtful expression with his head down, Li Li then got rid of all distractions, dealt with the battle in front of him without distractions, and once again set his eyes on the battlefield in front of the battle.

At this glance, he suddenly frowned, and a strong murderous aura flashed in his eyes. But seeing that on the battlefield in front of the battle, Gan Ning, who was seriously injured, had fought fiercely with Yan Liang for dozens of rounds, at this time Gan Ning's face was pale, his eyes were slightly dim, and he only had the strength to resist and had no power to fight back, and he was completely at a disadvantage, and he was already at the end of the strong crossbow and was in danger.

With Li Li's extraordinary eyesight, he could instantly think of why Gan Ning was so passive, and how Yan Liang had the upper hand.

Obviously, the scene of Yang Ding being attacked and killed by Yan Liang behind made Gan Ning extremely remorseful, and then he was furious, and attacked Yan Liang regardless of it, in order to avenge Yang Ding. And Gan Ning's irrational rush and fierce attack was undoubtedly in Yan Liang's arms, and immediately Yan Liang deliberately retained his strength, turned offense into defense, and wantonly consumed Gan Ning's body in anger. When Gan Ning was unable to attack more than a dozen rounds, Yan Liang suddenly exerted his strength and counterattacked fiercely, quickly reversed the tide of the battle, completely suppressed Gan Ning, and then firmly gained the upper hand and fought Gan Ning to retreat, barely supported, and defeat was imminent.

Seeing this scene, Li Lijian's eyebrows were raised, his anger burned, and his whole body exuded a murderous aura that was condensed like substance, and he had already had a murderous heart towards Yan Liang. And the reason why he was so angry was not just because Gan Ning was angry because he was not defeated by Yan Liang, but because Yan Liang was too arrogant and arrogant, repeatedly used inferior means and played clever, as if he didn't take Xiliang Army seriously.

And Yan Liang's various actions before the battle fell in Li Li's eyes, which was to provoke himself, ridiculing the Xiliang generals for only knowing how to fight with brute force but not knowing how to use their brains, and humiliating the Xiliang generals were a group of vulgar and reckless people.

Such an arrogant person, in Li Li's impression, Yan Liang is definitely the first. In the countless battles before this, no one had ever been as insidious and cunning as Yan Liang, who openly cheated in front of everyone, and the next means were endless.

In the past, Yan Liang relied on conspiracy and trickery to behead Hu Zhen and Yang Ding's two generals under the horse, but now the old trick is repeated, and the purpose of attacking and killing Yang Ding is to provoke Gan Ning and induce Gan Ning to lose his mind and attack fiercely. And the reason why he did this was to see that Gan Ning was injured in his body and the blood hole in his left leg was shocking, and it was expected that Gan Ning's serious injury would be difficult to hold for a long time, and he would definitely be defeated after a long battle. Once Gan Ninghou's strength is exhausted, then his chance to be good will come; Killing Hu Zhen and Yang Ding before was just an appetizer, and killing Gan Ning was his ultimate goal.

Such a trick may be able to hide from most people in front of the two armies, but it can't escape Li Li's eyes.

Seeing that Gan Ning was in a worrying situation, Li Li immediately shouted: "Where are Zhang Liao and Xu Chu? Zhang Liao went out to rescue Gan Ning, and Xu Chu went out to face Yan Liang! ”

"No, the last general will take the order!" Zhang Liao and Xu Chu stepped forward and bowed.

In fact, Li Li had intended to let the two of them fight, but Hu Zhen and Yang Ding took the lead, and they fought without a military order. As a result, Hu and Yang failed to make meritorious contributions, but both died tragically under Yan Liang's knife, which can be said to be the first to die before they left the school. And Zhang Liao and Xu Chu were already ready to fight, and when they heard Li Li's military order again, they immediately happily accepted the order and rode their horses to the front of the battle.

Just as Xu Chu was waving his sword and rushing out of the military formation, he saw Li Li drive the Golden Lion Beast King to catch up with Xu Chu in one step, and then said in a deep voice: "Zhong Kang remember, no matter what means and methods you use, you must kill Yan Liang." If you can't take Yan Liang's head, even if Zhongkang wins this battle, it will be useless! ”

"Huh?" Xu Chu was stunned when he heard this, and then nodded solemnly and said: "The last general will obey the order of the lord's army, and swear to take off the head of the Yan thief dog, please rest assured!" ”

"Well, Zhongkang can't be negligent." Li Li bowed his head lightly and whispered: "The Yan thief is insidious and cunning, and he is scheming, so you don't have to worry too much, no matter what method you use, as long as you can kill the Yan thief, you will make a great contribution!" ”

The voice fell, and after seeing Xu Chu nodding knowingly, Li Li patted Xu Chu's back armor, and said: "Zhong Kang doesn't need to say much, let's go to battle, and when I return to the battle, I will bring up the head of the Yan thief to see him!" ”

"No!" After Lang Sheng agreed, Xu Chu raised his knife and rode his horse, rushing to the front of the battle as fast as the wind.

Seeing Xu Chu out of the battle, Li Li drove the Golden Lion Beast King to slowly retreat into the military formation, and then Guo Jia asked softly: "Why is the lord so sure that Xu Chu will be able to kill Yan Liang?" If Xu Chu failed to take off Yan Liang's head, wouldn't the lord really want to question him? ”

Li Li smiled indifferently when he heard this: "Yan Thief is definitely not Zhongkang's enemy, I am convinced of this. If Feng Xiao doesn't believe it, wait and see. ”
