Chapter 1202 moral kidnapping
The book is followed last time.
"Okay! Hahaha..." After listening to Li Zhidi's words, Cao Cao immediately slapped and laughed.
He didn't expect that the abnormal headache would be solved by Li Zhi.
The most important thing is that after Li Zhidi solved the problem, he did not repay the merits. If he hadn't asked suddenly today, Li Zhi wouldn't have told himself how much he made!
"..." However, unlike the ecstatic Cao Cao, the head of the Yuan family, who was standing behind Li Zhidi, had a very complicated expression at this time.
Although he had defected to Li Zhi, the past was not something that could be forgotten immediately.
He remembered firmly when the Yuan family began to decline.
It was after Yuan Shao’s defeat!
Why did Yuan Shao fall?
To sum up, there are only three words - "Night Blindness"!
If it weren't for this damn disease, Yuan Shao wouldn't have fallen to the point of being defeated by a mere little pawn!
If Yuan Shao had not failed that battle, then the Yuan family would not have been so depressed, and would have been even less likely to have surrendered like their enemy, Li Zhi.
However, it is too late to say anything now, and the head of the Yuan family can only be angry for a while.
However, he firmly remembered the causes and solutions of night blindness in his heart.
After he decided to go back, he immediately ate all the food at home in a variety of ways and set up a clan rule to establish a clan rule. No one from the Yuan family may violate it!
Their Yuan family must not fall twice in a ditch, and night blindness must not be the reason for their Yuan family to fail again!
Li Zhi, who had an extra clan rule from the Yuan family, saw that Cao Cao had laughed for a long time but had not stopped, said helplessly: "Brother Meng De, don't laugh anymore. I'll consider when to launch an attack."
"Ha...well..." Cao Cao, who was already happy, stopped laughing helplessly after hearing Li Zhidi's words and said, "Brother Xingzhi, can't you make me happy for a while?
You know, Brother Wei has been used to hearing bad news recently, and now there is finally a good news. I want to be happy for a while, but I was interrupted by you..."
At the end, Cao Cao's expression was very resentful, like an abandoned resentful woman.
As he said, I have heard too much bad news recently. Now there is finally a good news. He wants to be happy for a while. Li Zhi actually interrupted him. This is too much...
"After you understand this, there is time to make you happy!" Li Zhi rolled his eyes angrily and said, "Although we have the upper hand in our troops this time and the inequality of intelligence, there is a great possibility of success.
But we can't be careless!
If the news accidentally leaks out and lets the aristocratic family know when I will deal with him, then they can immediately command the hundreds of thousands of troops outside the city to attack Yecheng before we even launched an attack!
By then, I will be in great trouble for waiting!"
"Ha!" Cao Cao sneered when he heard this, and said with disdain on his face: "Brother Xingzhi, you look down on that army too much!
Although the army has a large number of people, its combat power is ordinary and even very poor!
Even if they came to attack Yecheng, my brother would be confident that he could be together.
Defeat them within a day!”
When talking about marching and fighting, Cao Cao's face was full of confidence.
He never felt that the army composed of the mob of the aristocratic family was his opponent!
The reason why he did not attack the aristocratic family immediately was not because he was afraid of the army of the aristocratic family, but because he was afraid of his reputation.
He was afraid that there would be no suitable excuse and that attacking the aristocratic family would ruin his reputation, so he was not moved for a long time.
Now that he finally had a reasonable excuse, he couldn't help but feel a little proud.
"Brother Meng De!" Li Zhi also saw Cao Cao's complacentness, so his face changed and he said solemnly: "Although we can pacify them, it will inevitably lead to the loss of troops and generals!
The most important thing is that if this happens, Brother Meng De's prestige will be greatly reduced!"
"Prestige?! Haha!" Cao Cao sneered after hearing these two words, and said indifferently: "After the destruction of the aristocratic family, Wei brother will declare that the aristocratic family suddenly took over Wei brother because of his brother's trust, and asked Wei brother to write those appointment edicts, so Wei brother guessed that he would lead his troops to destroy them.
but……"
Speaking of this, he suddenly sighed with a little discouraged look, "Oh... Although this excuse is good, once this excuse is spread throughout the world, I am afraid that my brother will never have any reputation again!
Because a prince who can be besieged by his subordinates, how can he have reputation?”
"This is a bad thing!" Li Zhi looked at Cao Cao with a serious face, shook his head, and said, "After the incident, Brother Meng De can use cruel means to deal with people from those aristocratic families. By then, Brother Meng De's prestige will not actually be much lost.
At most, some people will say that Brother Meng De is too easy to trust others.
But most people will put the charges on those people from the aristocratic families who will be killed by Brother Meng De!
Because Brother Meng De regarded them as his confidants, but they suddenly rebelled, most of them ended up being on the heads of those aristocratic families!
After that, as long as Brother Meng De killed the chicken to warn the monkey, he would use cruel means to deal with people from those aristocratic families.
At that time, the people in the world will see Brother Meng De’s cruelty!
In this way, the impact of this incident on Brother Meng De is almost gone!
But if Brother Meng De let the aristocratic army outside the city attack Yecheng, the nature of the matter would change!
At that time, people in the world will think that Brother Meng De is not strict in his command and cannot even control his own army!
By then, Brother Meng De’s reputation will be truly ruined!
Therefore, Brother Meng De must not be careless just because he can easily pacify the army outside the city!"
After saying this long statement, Li Zhi breathed a sigh of relief, and then looked at Cao Cao with a serious expression.
To be honest, Cao Cao, who had just given up, almost frightened Li Zhi!
Li Zhixiong's Cao Cao was a person with a ruthless means and decisive character, but he had a bottom line.
If Cao Cao really broke his body, he would really have no bottom line!
A Cao Cao who has no bottom line is very terrible!
Cao Cao in history had no bottom line, so he had cruel things like killing people in his dreams and killing people in drunkenness!
Since Li Zhi came to the Han Dynasty, he has helped Cao Cao in many ways, allowing Cao Cao to retain the final bottom line.
Li Zhitong
After research, it was found that the reason why Cao Cao had no bottom line in history was because he had experienced too much and had long since seen through everything.
He believed that only actual interests were the most important, and everything else could be abandoned, so he gradually lost his bottom line.
If Li Zhi wants to set a bottom line for Cao Cao, there is only one way, which is to raise enough reputation for Cao Cao and use reputation to restrain Cao Cao!
As long as Cao Cao cares about his fame, he will not do anything that will damage his fame.
In this way, Cao Cao would not do some things that broke through the bottom line.
Li Zhizhi's method was to learn from the civil and military officials of the Tang Dynasty in history.
In Li Zhi's view, the civil and military officials of the Tang Dynasty used this method to "kidnap" Emperor Taizong of Tang.
They first set a goal for Emperor Taizong of Tang with compliments - the Emperor of the Eternal Eternal!
Then, they made a big public statement so that everyone in the world knew that Li Shimin wanted to become the emperor of the ages.
In this way, whether Li Shimin was trying to cleanse up his bad reputation for killing his brother, killing his brother, and imprisoning his father, or for his own fame, he was very fond of achievements and forced himself to become the emperor of the ages!
It is precisely because of this that Wei Zheng of the Tang Dynasty dared to offend Emperor Taizong of Tang Li Shimin repeatedly.
And even the aliens on the grassland learned this method.
Later, the foreign races discussed it and thought that when it was the Sui Dynasty, they also added the title of "Khan" to Emperor Yang of Sui.
So they decided to use the same trick again and gave Li Shimin the title of "Tian Khan" to restrain Li Shimin and prevent him from easily attacking the alien races on the grassland.
Although those small tricks of alien races were discovered by the old guys under Li Shimin's command, they were easily cracked.
But I have to say that this method is a very good method, and it is also an effective way to restrain the emperor!
It is precisely because of this method that the glorious Zhenguan dynasty was created (I personally have a brief opinion, please do not criticize any differences).
It can be said that this is another form of moral kidnapping!
And all this has a prerequisite, that is, Cao Cao’s fame cannot be corrupted, and Cao Cao must value his fame!
Therefore, Li Zhi would never let Cao Cao give up on fame!
"..." Cao Cao, who was indeed a little broken, fell into silence after listening to Li Zhidi's words.
After a long time, he sighed and said to Li Zhi with a gleeful look on his face: "Brother Xingzhi, fortunately you have reminded me at all times, otherwise I would have made many mistakes!"
He suddenly stood up, stared at the door with bright eyes, as if he was looking at the aristocratic family's resident through the wall outside the door, and said firmly: "You are right, brother, I really can't let the troops of those aristocratic families attack Yecheng!
Otherwise, the reputation that Brother Wei finally cultivated would be completely over, since that's the case..."
"Knock!" Cao Cao pulled out the sword from his waist, pointed at Li Zhi, and said, "My brother Xingzhi obeyed the order!"
When Li Zhi heard this, his face turned solemn, stood up, held his fists and bowed, and replied loudly, "I'm here, brother Meng De, please give me instructions!"
"I ordered you to add orphan guards to our own personal guards, a total of 13,000 people. Before dawn tonight, all the thieves in the aristocratic family will be arrested and brought to justice!"
