Chapter 390 Interpretation
The book is followed last time.
Looking at Cao Cao who was stuttering, Li Zhi smiled proudly and said, "Brother Meng De, do you still remember what you encountered when you first came to the capital?"
After hearing this, Cao Cao thought for a while, frowned and said uncertainly: "Are you talking about... killing Cao Jie?"
"That's right" Li Zhi nodded and said, "When he was killing Cao Jie, in order to lead the guards in the palace, he asked Brother Wen Ruo to go to the palace to get a few blank edicts. This is one of them."
"Gudu!" Cao Cao's face became even more surprised after hearing Li Zhi's words.
After swallowing, he asked, "Can you...
At the beginning, my brother guessed that Dong Zhuo would cause trouble?
Otherwise, why would you ask Brother Wen Ruo to take these more edicts?"
"What are Brother Meng De thinking?" Li Zhi rolled his eyes and said angrily: "How could I know that Dong Zhuo was about to cause trouble when I first entered Luoyang?
The reason why I asked Brother Wen Ruo to get a few more edicts is to be prepared for any trouble.
You also know your personality and like to prepare for the future.
Moreover, in Luoyang, there are countless enemies, and maybe the enemy will attack you at any time.
Therefore, I want to use these edicts to protect my life, but..."
Speaking of this, Li Zhi had an unexpected expression on his face, shook his head and said, "I didn't expect that these edicts would be used here."
After hearing Li Zhi's explanation, Cao Cao nodded in a clear way.
Then, he looked at the edict in his hand with excitement.
With this edict, as long as he fills in the edict with the content of the edict and distributes it to the world, he will have great justice in his hands.
At that time, people in the world will definitely follow in the scenery.
Looking at Cao Cao who was trapped in his reverie, Li Zhi patted his shoulder and reminded: "Brother Meng De, stop dreaming anymore!
The most important thing you are now, think about how to gather troops!
You don't even have a soldier in your hands now.
If you just join the bidding for the director without any help, even if you are the initiator of the bidding for the director this time, you will not get much benefit, and you will only pick the fruits."
After hearing Li Zhi's words, Cao Cao frowned and said, "There are thousands of people under his command, but these people can't do anything at all.
Is there any way to solve this problem by Brother Xingzhi?"
After saying that, he looked at Li Zhi with bright eyes.
At this time, even if Cao Cao didn't want to admit it, he knew that the world was in chaos now!
When the world is in chaos, it is the kingly way to have soldiers and generals in your hands.
So he had the idea of Li Zhi, who made Li Zhi have the most soldiers in his hands?
Li Zhi was stunned when he heard this, shook his head with a wry smile, and said, "Brother Meng De, I'm giving you an idea, but you've put your ideas on me. It's not authentic for you to do this!"
As he said that, Li Zhi rubbed his face with depression, and his face was full of bitterness.
However, his heart was not as depressed as he showed, but was a little cheerful.
Because, since Cao Cao asked for troops like him, it proves that Cao Cao's ambitions have been stimulated.
At least, he subconsciously accepted the reality that troubled times were coming.
However, once Cao Cao is inspired by his inner ambition, he will definitely not be content with the status quo.
When he finds that the Han Dynasty cannot be supported, he will definitely become his own initiative!
At that time, Li Zhi's grand plan can be implemented slowly.
Of course, Li Zhi cannot be too happy now, so as not to be seen by Cao Cao.
Yes, in his conversation with Cao Cao today, Li Zhi was plotting against Cao Cao from beginning to end.
He just wanted to arouse Cao Cao's ambitions and make him stand on his own as soon as possible.
That's why he prepared the imperial edict early.
Even now, Cao Cao was asking for troops like him, and he had already expected it.
However, people often don’t cherish what is easy to obtain, so his face is full of bitterness, just to let Cao Cao know that these soldiers are hard to come by.
Only in this way can he cherish these soldiers and horses more and pay more attention to Li Zhi.
Everything is as Li Zhi had planned.
After seeing the bitterness on Li Zhi's face, Cao Cao scratched his chin awkwardly and said embarrassedly: "My brother, don't blame me for being too greedy. There is really nothing I can do about me.
Although my brother has little family resources, it is a fantasy to build a military horse with that little money, so I asked me to come to my virtuous family."
The reason why Cao Cao was so embarrassed was Li Zhi's fault.
In history, Cao Cao received full support from the Wei family.
But now...
The Wei family struggled desperately under the control of Li Zhi, so how could they have the time to support Cao Cao?
"Oh..." Li Zhi sighed pretendingly after hearing this, he nodded helplessly and said, "Okay, you and my brother are in a fight, so you can't be too stingy!
Although there are more than 200,000 troops under his command, these troops cannot act rashly, because they still have to rely on them to realize the grand plan they are under.
Therefore, now under the command, only those slave soldiers captured from the aristocratic families can be used."
Speaking of this, Li Zhi paused for a moment, and after thinking for a while, he clapped his hands and said firmly: "Let's do this, since Brother Meng De is urgent, I can dispatch you a large army of 30,000 slaves, plus 10,000 elite soldiers.
After Brother Meng De took over these troops, and with your original troops, there were almost 50,000 people.
In this way, these 50,000 people are enough to make Brother Meng De play an important role in the alliance to challenge Dong.”
Upon hearing this, Cao Cao stood up with gratitude, bowed deeply to Li Zhi, and said, "Thank you, Brother Xingzhi, for your help!
If you are going to challenge Dong Chenggong this time, Xingzhi's brother will be the first contribution!
At that time, I will definitely show my merits to Your Majesty for your actions!"
After hearing this, Li Zhi waved his hand indifferently and said, "Brother Meng De doesn't have to be too polite.
The reason I help you is because of the friendship between us, not for your Majesty!
Moreover, even after you successfully kill Dong Zhuo, it is best not to tell Your Majesty about the lent soldiers to you.
Otherwise, you might be implicated by the underworld, not only ineffective, but also in failure.
Because, our Majesty, I hate it very much now."
Upon hearing this, Cao Cao frowned, stood up, and asked in confusion: "Why?
Your Majesty is now imprisoned in the palace by Dong Zhuo. You, the general of the cavalry, are the only person in Luoyang who can resist Dong Zhuo. Why does he hate you?"
"Ha!" Li Zhi sneered after hearing this, and replied: "Three days ago, our newly ascended emperor, asked someone to bring a blood letter to me.
In the book, he said that as long as Dong Zhuo was executed, he would be appointed as the lower-ranking Han national commander, the King of Luoyang..."
Before Li Zhi finished speaking, Cao Cao interrupted with an anxious look on his face: "Since that's the case, why don't you agree..."
Speaking of this, Cao Cao was suddenly stunned.
Then, he patted his forehead with a sudden realization, shook his head with a wry smile, and said, "You see, Brother Wei almost forgot the purpose of his virtuous brother.
Brother Xingzhi just wants to make the world turmoil. How could he stop Dong Zhuo?”
Speaking of this, he stopped talking about this topic and instead asked, "Brother Xingzhi, if you don't send troops when we are asking for Dong, will the people in the world regard you as Dong Zhuo first-class?"
Li Zhi smiled and replied, "I'm ready for it."
Tomorrow, I will hint Dong Zhuo, asking him to force His Majesty to write an imperial edict that cannot be moved.
At that time, I can use this imperial edict as an excuse to not send troops.
By then, the people in the world will not be able to blame each other, and at most they will be scolding others behind their backs."
After hearing Li Zhi's words, Cao Cao frowned and asked, "Does Xingzhi underestimate the world too much?
There are countless wise people in the world, and there are always people who see the plan of the virtuous brother Zhao Xing.
At that time, how should Brother Xingzhi deal with those questions?"
"Haha..." Li Zhi smiled confidently when he heard this, and then said, "Brother Meng De is a little worried.
What can they do to see?!
People who are unfaithful to the royal family will not care about this even if they see it.
Those who are loyal to the royal family will not talk nonsense after they see it.
One Dong Zhuo is enough for them to bear it. If they are forced to rebel because of their slander, do you think there is still a way to save the world?
So, even if they see it, they will definitely keep their mouths tight in order to comfort themselves!
After all, I did not follow Dong Zhuo to rebel, and it was just that the two of them were not helping each other.
Until Dong Zhuo was completely eliminated, they would never be enemies with him!
As for the execution of Dong Zhuo…”
Speaking of this, Li Zhi smiled and shook his head: "By then, the world will be in chaos. Who will still hold on to this matter?"
After hearing Li Zhi's explanation, Cao Cao was silent for a long time.
Then, he sighed and said with emotion: "A man who is as wise as a virtuous brother of Xingzhi, is unwilling to be used by the Han Dynasty.
It can be seen that the Han Dynasty has indeed come to an end..."
