Thirty miles east of Guangzong is Li Zhi's camp.

When Li Zhi and others returned to their camp, a celebration banquet was held to celebrate the victory in this battle.

At the banquet, Cao Cao held a wine cup, looked at Li Zhi, and smiled at everyone: "Hahaha... If I don't have a good brother today, I'm afraid we won't have the blessing to drink together.

Come! I’ll wait for you to have a drink with me, my worthy brother.”

As soon as Cao Cao finished speaking, Guo Jia and the two brothers Xiahou agreed at the same time: "Good! If my brother (Mr.) had not come up with any advice on this matter, I am afraid that we would have been the victims of the Yellow Turban sword. This brother (Mr.) is indeed

It’s time to drink, drink to win!”

Seeing the four of them toasting, Li Zhi did not refuse. He stood up, picked up the wine cup and said to everyone: "Today's victory is the result of our concerted efforts. How can I take this alone? Come on, I will do the same."

Here’s to you all”

After he finished speaking, he drank all the wine in his hand, looking very heroic.

"Okay!" Seeing him drinking happily, everyone cheered loudly, and then everyone drank all the wine in their hands.

After drinking the wine, Cao Cao looked at Li Zhi hesitantly and hesitated to speak.

Li Zhi saw Cao Cao's expression and asked curiously: "Brother Meng De, do you have anything to say to me?"

"..." After hearing Li Zhi's inquiry, Cao Cao hesitated for a while, then looked at Li Zhi with a calm expression and asked: "How should I deal with the old general Huangfu?"

When Li Zhi heard this, he paused with the wine cup in his hand and frowned, "I am in a dilemma about this matter. I don't know what to do."

Having said this, he sighed, picked up the wine in front of him, drank it down, and said lightly: "Although I understand Old General Huangfu, understanding does not mean agreement!"

When Cao Cao heard this, he looked at Li Zhi and was in a dilemma.

Although Cao Cao was a subordinate of the old general Huangfu, he also had a good relationship with the old general.

However, this does not mean that Cao Cao agrees with Huangfu Song's way of doing things.

In Cao Cao's view, Li Zhi had saved their lives, and the old general took advantage of Li Zhi's trust to attack Li Zhi in order to rescue Lu Zhi, which was indeed a bit ungrateful.

However, if Cao Cao was allowed to just watch the old general being imprisoned, he couldn't do it.

After Cao Cao hesitated for a while, he stood up, cupped his hands and begged Li Zhi: "Please forgive the old general for the sake of my dear brother Xingzhi!"

"This matter..." Li Zhi seemed a little hesitant, wondering whether he should agree to this matter.

After all, Huangfusong went too far at that time, and Li Zhi was too ruthless. Huangfusong must have a grudge in his heart.

If he were to be let go at this time, it would definitely cause a catastrophe after he returned to Beijing.

Just when they both didn't know what to do, Guo Jia stood up and said to them: "Why do you two brothers bother so much? This matter couldn't be easier to handle!"

"Huh?" Li Zhi and Cao Cao turned to look at Guo Jia and said in unison: "I wonder if my dear brother (Fengxiao) has any good ideas?"

"The two brothers are really obsessed with the authorities."

After Guo Jia took a slow sip of wine, he said slowly: "Brother, don't you need someone to go to the Yellow Turban Camp to deliver the message? Just let old General Huangfu go!"

Speaking of this, Guo Jia sneered and said in a dark voice: "After returning to Beijing this time, my brother read the old general's book in front of His Majesty and said that he had no merits or demerits in this battle.

If this is the case, His Majesty will definitely be furious and demote his rank. How can an old man with no rank or rank stand up to his brother?"

When Li Zhi heard this, his eyes shone brightly, and he greatly agreed with this statement.

Cao Cao on the side heard this and felt a little confused.

He said displeasedly: "That's inappropriate! Isn't this the behavior of a villain?"

"That's wrong!" After hearing this, Guo Jia ignored Cao Cao's displeasure and retorted: "This time it was Old General Huangfu's fault.

Now, giving him a chance to change his ways may cause him to lose his official position, but it is better than dying on the battlefield, right?"

"Death in battle?" Cao Cao tasted these words carefully. After a while, Cao Cao suddenly looked at Li Zhi and said in disbelief: "Could it be that the wise brother Xing Zhi originally wanted the old general Huangfu to die in battle?"

"Of course!" Li Zhi replied expressionlessly.

Li Zhi opened the folding fan, shook it a few times, and said calmly: "This time, if I didn't have some prestige among the soldiers under my command, Huangfu would have been persecuted to death as a general!

Now, I am just following his way and paying him back, why is Brother Mengde surprised?"

"..." Cao Cao was silent after hearing this.

He never thought that Li Zhi, who usually seemed quite kind, would be so indifferent when facing a life-threatening situation.

This made Cao Cao full of doubts about his own vision of others.

After all, it turned out that Cao Cao felt that although Li Zhi was a talented person, he was a little indecisive, not decisive enough, and not cruel enough.

Now it seems that I was wrong.

Li Zhi was indeed a little hesitant in dealing with trivial matters.

However, when Li Zhi encountered something that threatened his life, the words "cruel and ruthless" could not describe his actions.

Although he knew there was little hope, Cao Cao still decided to try hard to see if he could release old General Huangfu safe and sound.

After all, Old General Huangfu was kind to him, but now that he was in trouble, he couldn't ignore it.

However, seeing Li Zhi's firm expression, Cao Cao didn't know how to persuade him, so he winked at the Xiahou brothers and asked them to help him talk.

Xia Houyuan on the side saw Cao Cao's eyes and understood immediately, but Xia Hou didn't understand much and just kept eating and drinking.

Seeing that his brother was so embarrassed, Xia Houyuan kicked him from below.

"Ouch! Why did you kick me?" Xia Houyuan was an idiot. He didn't understand what his brother meant at all. Instead, he held his own feet and complained loudly to Xia Houyuan.

"I..." Seeing that his brother was so ignorant, Xia Houyuan was so angry that he couldn't speak.

Immediately, Xia Houyuan ignored his idiot brother, stood up, raised his hands to Li Zhi and said: "Mr.

Do ordinary people care about everything?

Mr. Xingzhi has a lot of them, so why not just let this matter go?

Anyway, the old man was humiliated by Mr. Xingzhi, and his memory will surely improve, and he will not dare to offend Mr. Xingzhi again in the future."

Hearing Xia Houyuan's words, Xiahou also understood. He quickly lifted up his robe, wiped the grease from his mouth, and said carelessly: "That's it!

Although this old man is hateful, wouldn't it show your broad-mindedness if you let him go for the sake of his age?

If that old man comes back to trouble you after being released by Mr., someone will chop him up with a knife."

When Li Zhi heard this, he looked at Cao Cao, who was looking at him expectantly, and then at the two Xiahou brothers. Then he stood up, closed his eyes and looked at the sky, and breathed out slowly.

After a while, Li Zhi opened his eyes and looked at Cao Cao and said seriously: "For Brother Meng De's sake, let's put this matter aside for the time being and not let Huangfu Song go.

The Yellow Turban camp is doomed."

At this point, Li Zhi's face became firm and he said categorically: "However, after returning to Beijing this time, I still have to give him a copy in front of His Majesty, and I will not give up until he loses his official position and title!"

When Li Zhi said this, he saw that Cao Cao was about to interrupt, waved his hand, interrupted his words, and explained to him: "It's not that I am narrow-minded, but only in this way, Huangfu Song has no ability to make trouble.

Otherwise, after I return to Luoyang, with my connections in the capital, I may suffer endless hardships."

"Alas!" Cao Cao was stunned for a while after hearing this. Seeing that Li Zhi had made up his mind, he stopped trying to persuade him. He sighed and nodded helplessly: "That's all we can do."

Guo Jia was a little stiff when he saw the scene, so he smoothed things over and said, "Brothers, today is a celebration banquet. Let's not talk about these troublesome things. Come on, let's have a full drink of this cup!"

After everyone heard Guo Jia's words, they also knew that this topic was not suitable for discussion. At the same time, they raised their wine cups and drank all the wine in one gulp.

After everyone drank the cup, Cao Cao curiously asked Li Zhi: "Just now, my virtuous brother Xingzhi said that he wanted someone to go to the Yellow Turban Camp to report a message. I wonder what message he was reporting?

"Huh!" After hearing Cao Cao's inquiry, Li Zhi looked into the distance and snorted coldly, and said arrogantly: "This time, I want to solve the problem of the Yellow Turbans once and for all!"

"Oh?" Upon hearing this, Cao Cao stood up suddenly, became energetic in an instant, and asked eagerly: "I don't know what good strategy my wise brother has to annihilate the Yellow Turbans in the world at one stroke?"

Seeing the eagerness of Cao Cao's question, Li Zhi no longer pretended, and responded: "This time I will capture Zhang Jiao alive, and tomorrow I will send someone to the Yellow Turban camp to stop his attack on Guangzong Chengcheng."

, otherwise I will kill this horn!"

Speaking of this, Li Zhi smiled coldly and continued to explain: "That Zhang Jiao is the spiritual leader of the Yellow Turbans, and he is also the elder brother of Zhang Bao and Zhang Liang in the Yellow Turban camp.

These two people dare not ignore Zhang Jue's life, so they can only listen to our words. In this way, Lu Gong and others can be saved.

After Lu Gong and others are rescued, we will join forces with Lu Gong and use Zhang Jiao as bait to lure the Yellow Turbans in the world. When the time comes, we will find a dangerous place to garrison.

Setting up another huge trap will be enough to kill all the Yellow Turbans in the world!"

After hearing Li Zhi's explanation, Cao Cao fell into deep thought.

After a while, he came back to his senses, frowned and asked Li Zhi: "I wonder if my dear brother Xing has ever thought that although we have Zhang Jiao to lead us, we can indeed lure the Yellow Turbans from all over the world to this place.

But we have only tens of thousands of soldiers under our command, while there are millions of Yellow Turbans in the world. The disparity is so huge, how can we resist?

Even if a trap is set now, how many people can be killed by the trap?

This time I was waiting on the mountain peak. I was able to resist the Yellow Turbans according to the dangerous situation, but it was just because the number of Yellow Turbans was too small.

If there are millions of Yellow Turbans, and they surround the entire mountain peak, wouldn’t we become turtles in a urn?"

After hearing Cao Cao's worries, Li Zhi chuckled and was not in a hurry to answer. He picked up the wine cup and took a sip and savored it carefully.

Later, Li Zhi confidently explained to Cao Cao: "Brother Meng De is right, but when did I say that we would use dangerous terrain as a trap?

The reason why I want to find a dangerous place to garrison is just as a precaution.

As for the real strategy to kill the enemy..."

Having said this, Li Zhi pretended to be mysterious and waved to Cao Cao.
