The reason why Zhang Lu has such power is just because he relies on his Five Dogs of Rice Sect.

How similar are Zhang Lu’s Five Dogs of Rice Sect and Yellow Turbans?!

Could it be that when you hear that hundreds of thousands of Yellow Turban troops are attacking you, will you panic?"

"So that's it." After hearing Li Zhi's explanation, Cao Cao quietly breathed a sigh of relief and said, "In this way, although Zhang Lu has many troops, his combat power is very weak.

His hundreds of thousands of troops are just equivalent to tens of thousands of elite troops, and he is indeed not a big force."

"That's right" Li Zhi nodded and said, "Not only that, there are no capable people under Zhang Lu's command, they are just empty-handed.

Moreover, his power does have a very fatal weakness, that is, he can't afford to support so many soldiers!

Although he was able to assemble hundreds of thousands of troops in a very short time.

However, after confronting him for a while, he could only disperse all these people!

Because he only has one Hanzhong now, there is not so much food at all.

Therefore, after he had so many armies, he would still live in Hanzhong instead of robbing Yizhou.

It was precisely because of this that Liu Yan, the governor of Yizhou, saw this that he was relieved to let Zhang Lu occupy Hanzhong."

After saying this, Li Zhi sighed and said with emotion: "Speaking of this, this Yizhou Mu Liu Yan is also a character!

Unfortunately, he is old and has no qualified heirs. Otherwise, this person would have been the enemy of Brother Meng De!”

"Indeed!" Cao Cao was silent after hearing Li Zhi's words, and nodded, saying, "He put Zhang Lu in Hanzhong, probably not only because of Zhang Lu's mother, but also because he wanted Zhang Lu to guard the gateway for Yizhou!

He knew that he was old and his future generations were not successful, so he allowed Zhang Lu to occupy Hanzhong.

Zhang Lu's power has the weakness of impatient warfare, while Yizhou is famously mountainous and has a rugged road.

If you want to conquer Yizhou, you have to have a long confrontation to have hope of conquering it.

However, Zhang Lu's power could not conquer Yizhou at all!

In this way, Zhang Lu from Hanzhong unconsciously became a watchdog for Yizhou!"

Speaking of this, Cao Cao paused for a moment, and then he said with emotion: "What an amazing method!"

After sighing, Cao Cao shook his head again and said, "He did this for his descendants!"

"That's right!" Li Zhi nodded and said with emotion: "I feel sorry for parents in the world!

The reason why Liu Yan did this was for his offspring.

As long as Zhang Lu is still here, Yizhou will be safe and sound!

Because Zhang Lu would never watch others capture Yizhou.

As long as Zhang Lu is not stupid, he will understand that once Yizhou is taken away by others, his next target will be Hanzhong!

In this way, even if Liu Yan's descendants are not successful, they can take charge of Yizhou smoothly."

Speaking of this, Li Zhi smiled bitterly and shook his head and continued, "It's just a pity that Zhang Lu is the hero!

He is now like a tiger with reins tied!

I want to turn around and bite the person who put him on, but I can't bite him because of the reins!

And if there are other beasts, when you want to bite the person who traps him.

The tiger felt that the beast would definitely seize his territory!

Therefore, he will fight the beasts that come without hesitation!

In this way, a good tiger was domesticated into a door-guarding dog, which is really a pity!"

After hearing Li Zhi's words, Cao Cao shook his head and said, "There is nothing to regret!

If Zhang Lu knew how to choose and abandon Hanzhong and went to other places, wouldn’t he still be the king?

After all, it was because he was too greedy for the fertile land of Yizhou!

Zhang Lu's tiger was not imprisoned by others, but by himself!"

"What you said is light!" Li Zhi rolled his eyes after hearing this, and looked at Cao Cao who was standing and talking without aches. He said, "Brother Meng De, if you were asked to give up Xuzhou and lead your own troops to occupy a place, would you like?"

After hearing this, Cao Cao thought for a while, then smiled bitterly and shook his head and said, "Brother Wei is probably very unwilling to do so!

There are shortcuts to take, who is willing to take those difficult paths that require overcoming obstacles?”

"Okay!" Li Zhi clapped his hands and said with emotion: "Zhang Lu probably thinks so too!

He felt that after Liu Yan a hundred years later, Liu Yan's descendants would be easily dealt with.

That's why he is now staying quietly in Hanzhong.

Once Liu Yan dies, he will definitely find a reason to advance to Yizhou immediately!"

"What a pity..." Speaking of this, Li Zhi shook his head with regret: "What he did was calculated by Liu Yan. Everything he did was just useless work!"

After hearing Li Zhi's words, Cao Cao's eyes looked uncertain and he also looked a little scared.

Thinking from the perspective of others, Cao Cao felt that he would never be better than Zhang Lu's in Zhang Lu's position.

However, Zhang Lu, who was so outstanding, was actually played with by Liu Yan in an applause. Liu Yan's mentality is indeed amazing!

After realizing this, Cao Cao felt a little relaxed and a little regretful.

Relax because Liu Yan is already old and he cannot become his opponent.

When he took down all the Central Plains and looked at the south, Liu Yan probably had been alive for a long time.

As for regret...

It was because Cao Cao felt that it was a pity that he could not fight with a peerless talent like Liu Yan.

"Hu..." Cao Cao thought for a while, and then let out a long sigh.

Then, he sorted out his thoughts and asked Li Zhiwen: "Apart from Zhang Lu, are there any other laughing forces in the world?"

"Of course there is!" Li Zhi nodded and said, "Apart from Zhang Lu's words, we have to talk about Dong Zhuo and Gongsun Du.

Let’s talk about Dong Zhuo first. I believe everyone present knows something.

Although he has declined now, his strength cannot be underestimated!

He dared not advance to the side of the army now, and the road to Hanzhong was very rugged, so it was difficult for him to send troops to attack Yizhou.

Therefore, he could only send troops to attack Xiliang!

I am sure that there will definitely be a battle between him and Xiliang in the near future!

And this battle is the battle that determines Dong Zhuo's fate.

So, he will definitely give his all!

Then, you will know how strong he is."

After hearing Li Zhi's words, Cao Cao nodded with a serious face. He had never underestimated Dong Zhuo.

Since Dong Zhuo has grown from a small lieutenant to this point now.

As long as he works hard, he will definitely use the tens of thousands of people under his command to gain a huge foundation!

Li Zhicao was heartbroken and was relieved by someone. Then he continued to introduce: "The last one is going to talk about Gongsun Du from Liaodong.

Speaking of which, he had some relationship with Xu Rong, who was under Dong Zhuo. They were originally fellow villagers.

So Gongsun Du asked Dong Zhuo for the position of Liaodong prefect through Xu Rong's relationship.

This person is indeed capable. After he went to Liaodong, he immediately stabilized the situation and took the entire Liaodong for himself.

At this time, there has become the world where he is alone!

However, because Liaodong is alone outside the Han Dynasty, it is not a match for the time being.

After Brother Meng De pacified the world, he only needed an edict to attract him.

Even if you can't recruit, you can still take it down as long as you send a general and tens of thousands of troops.

It means that all the forces in the world are distributed.

The major forces include: Yuan Shao, Yuan Shu, Gongsun Zan, Zhang Yan, Liu Biao, Liu Yan, Ma Teng, Han Sui, and Brother Meng De and Zaixia, a total of ten people.

Small forces include: Liu Bei, Sun Jian, Zhang Lu, Gongsun Du, Dong Zhuo, a total of five people.

Of course, there are more than these small forces, but other small forces are about to be annexed by the major forces.

For example, Han Fu, Jizhou, who was about to be annexed by Yuan Shao, Liu Yao, Yangzhou, who was about to be annexed by Yuan Shu, and Liu Dai, who was about to be annexed by Yellow Turban Zhang Yan and others.

Although these people were so prosperous, they were already in danger, so there was nothing to say."

"Hu..." After hearing Li Zhi's words, Cao Cao let out a long sigh and said with emotion: "There are more than ten forces in the world, and none of them are easy to meet.

It seems that the journey of fighting for the world for brother is really difficult!”

"That's not the matter." Li Zhi shrugged and said calmly: "Brother Meng De, since you want to fight for dominance in the world, you must be prepared to be an enemy of the world!

These people are left for you to have headaches, but I can’t take care of that much at home.”

After saying that, Li Zhi no longer paid attention to the contemplative Cao Cao and talked and laughed with everyone present.
