I am not a counselor, I am trying to survive in the late Han Dynasty

Chapter 49: Mr. Ai and Li Zheng reveal their secrets
Soldiers are very fast.

After the discussion was settled, Xu Shu immediately dispatched troops and horses.

Xu He had already notified his men, and everyone prepared the ox carts and donkey carts, carrying a large amount of rice and grain, and it was a spectacular scene.

Many of Li Zheng's sergeants asked to join Xu Shu's army.

They had been greatly favored by Li Zheng's father Li Qian, and they all wanted to avenge Li Qian, but Xu Shu declined them one by one and made very good excuses.

"Li and I have been fighting each other sincerely, but we can fight with swords without eyesight.

If it is injured, there is no way to explain it to Mr. Li.

I appreciate your kindness. On this bitterly cold day in the twelfth lunar month of winter, I ask you to live and breathe well and protect the eldest son. Just help me, Xu Shu. "

Everyone under Li Zheng's command had tears in their eyes.

In this era of war, few people care about the life and death of their soldiers. Good people like Xu Shu are very rare.

Li Zheng originally wanted to send Xu Shu to the city gate, but thinking of Xu Shu's sincerity, his nose was slightly sour and he kept sending Xu Shu forward.

Xu Shu took Li Zheng's hand and smiled:

"I have to say farewell to you after a long journey. It's freezing cold. Mr. Li, please go back first. Don't say goodbye!"

Li Zheng nodded and sighed:
“Whether Yuan Zhicheng succeeds or not, what I said before remains true.

When you come back, I will give you half of the song.

If I can kill Xue Lan, I will give you [-] Dendrobium rice as a thank you..."

"Hey, Li Zheng is treating me like an outsider." Xu Shu took Li Zheng's hand and shook it gently, smiling, "We will meet Li Zheng someday and have a good chat over wine."

After he said that, he turned around and left, and everyone in Xu Shujun followed suit silently, leaving deep and shallow footprints in the white snow.

Xu Shu and Xu He walked side by side. Xu He came up and lowered his voice:
"General Xu, are we really going to fight Juye?"

Xu Shu sighed:

“Juye wants to go, but he’s not going to fight hard.

Am I going to take my brothers to death? "

"Then let's..."

"Don't talk yet. Look back for me. Can you still see Linqiu?"

Xu He looked back and then said:
"You can still see a little bit."

Xu Shu nodded:
"Tell me if you can't see it at all. I don't dare to look back now, for fear that they will see the flaw."

Xu He:? ? ?
"General Xu, what are we doing?" Xu He said blankly, "Could it be that Cheng Yu has seen through it and we are fleeing back to Liangshan?"

Xu He was not afraid of death, but he still felt a little unwilling when he thought that all the hard work and sacrifices he had put in before were in vain.

Xu Shu smiled and said:
"Cheng Yu's resourcefulness is not inferior to mine, and I'm afraid I can't hide these tricks from him.

But it doesn't matter, it doesn't matter even if he sees through me.

I just want him to send troops, and he has to send troops this time! "

"Really?" Xu He was overjoyed. He had thought that Cheng Yu had decisively rejected even Cao Ang, and he might not be able to trick him into sending troops, but he didn't expect that Xu Shu had other tricks!
"General Xu, this...oh, Linqiu is no longer visible. Should we use some means?"

Xu Shu nodded and said:
"Yes, run away as fast as you can!
Let’s come back to rescue Cao Ang later! "

Xu He:? ? ?

·
Xu Shu embarked on the journey alone with his troops and horses, and Cao Ang felt even more ashamed.

He originally wanted to see Xu Shu off to the city gate, but when he saw Xu Shu saying goodbye, tears kept flowing down his face.

Worried about affecting the morale of the army, he simply turned around and headed west to see Wen Ji off, and told Wen Ji to deliver the letter to Cao Cao.

Wen Ji rode off with tears in his eyes. Mr. Ai shamelessly approached Cao Ang and said flatteringly:
"Young Master..."

His greasy voice made Cao Ang get goosebumps all over his body. He quickly moved away from him and frowned:
"Do what?"

Mr. Ai smiled flatteringly:

"Young master, it's better not to send maggots away.

Let me tell you the truth, Maggot is very deceitful. After he leaves, I can finally talk to you properly..."

Cao Ang raised his eyebrows:
"What did you say?"

"Well." Seeing Cao Ang's unkind expression, Mr. Ai sneered and said bravely, "Actually, you have all been deceived by him, and not all bad people look like me.

There are also many people with thick eyebrows and big eyes like Maggots who are evil people with deep thoughts. This time they went south..."

"Shut up!" Cao Ang's expression became even colder. He looked at Mr. Ai seriously, and for the first time his elegant face showed a hint of ferocity, "Xu Yuan is brave and resourceful, why would he be friends with someone like you?
Yuan Zhi braved the wind and snow to kill thieves for his country, and before he had gone far, you started making trouble about him..."

"Young Master, do you mean to ask him to go further away?"

Cao Ang:  …

Now, no matter how good-tempered Cao Ang was, he couldn't stand it anymore. He kicked up a bunch of snowflakes on the ground, which covered Mr. Ai's head with a splash, scaring Mr. Ai to retreat repeatedly.

"Left and right, if this fat pig dares to come ten steps in front of me, he will be treated as an assassin!"

He flicked his sleeves and dodged away like a mosquito. The surrounding guards also looked at him with disdain, telling Mr. Ai to get out of here.

Mr. Ai was angry that one Buddha was born and two Buddhas ascended to heaven, but he did not dare to get angry, not to mention how wronged he was.

His biggest dream since time travel is to find Cao Cao. As long as he tells Cao Cao a little bit of the history he knows, Cao Cao can save the defeat of the Battle of Chibi and successfully dominate the world. Cao Ang is even more difficult to calm down in the hearts of countless Cao fans. Of course, we need to give him some guidance so that he can avoid defeat in the Battle of Wancheng.

Why is this person so disrespectful? It pisses me off.

Mr. Ai walked away dejectedly, cursing in his mind as he walked, look at me assisting Cao Pi and Cao Zhi to kill you in the future, only a true genius can appreciate my ability.

Everyone in the city was either going to see off Xu Shu or Wen Ji. Mr. Ai was bored and didn't want to stay alone in any corner of this abandoned town, so he could only walk in the direction of Li Zheng with his head lowered.

At this time, Li Zheng had already stepped on the thick snow to send Xu Shu out. His soldiers also cleaned up the snow on the city gate and the city. Li Zheng, who was very experienced, also burned some snow water and poured it on the city. When the wind blows, it turns into an ice city, which looks very, very spectacular.

Mr. Ai stepped on the white snow and walked up to Li Zheng and said with a flattering smile:

"Master Li?"

Li Zheng shuddered and coughed:
"Tengfei, there's something I've never understood - why do you like to call me sir so much?"

"Huh? That should be right?" "You are a friend of Yuan Zhi. Yuan Zhi respects you quite a lot. Just call me Gong Qi."

What Li Zheng said was very clear. For Xu Shu's sake, I will barely treat you as a friend, or you won't count as anything.

But Mr. Ai didn't understand what this meant. Hearing this, he felt that Li Zheng was looking down at him and said happily:
"Gong Qi, I treat you as one of my own. If you need any advice from me in the future, just ask me. I know a lot of historical truths. You can ask whatever you want!"

Li Zheng:......

I said you were fat and you still breathed, right?
I'm just being humble, but you really dare to call me by my first name?

He snorted coldly, feeling a little nauseous looking at Mr. Ai's appearance.

However, it was not good to not say a word when someone posted it. He coughed dryly and casually said:
"By the way, Tengfei, I have one thing to ask - did Duke Cao become emperor in history?"

"No!" Mr. Ai answered truthfully, "Cao Gong helped protect the Han Dynasty and wiped out all the heroes. He was so loyal to the country of the Han Dynasty that he only became the prime minister. He was a great hero, a great hero, a great... …”

Li Zheng was a little surprised when he heard that Cao Cao did not become emperor.

He originally thought that Mr. Ai admired Cao Cao so much. It should be that Cao Cao finally made great achievements and proclaimed himself emperor on behalf of the Han Dynasty and created a good story. He co-authored and did not proclaim himself emperor?

"Then, who becomes the emperor?" Li Zheng asked.

Mr. Ai slapped his thigh suddenly and said sadly:

"Hey, that hypocrite Liu Bei has become the emperor! Are you angry?
Even heroes like Cao Gong did not become emperor. Liu Bei became emperor. Isn't he very thick-skinned? "

"Liu, Liu, Liu..." Li was stunned, "What? Liu Bei becomes emperor?"

"Yes! It's absolutely true. If there is even half a lie, I will be struck to death by lightning immediately!"

Mr. Ai was wary of Xu Shu, but he was not wary of Li Zheng, a wealthy family like Li Zheng who sincerely helped the Cao family. He wanted to give Li Zheng his heart and soul immediately. He really answered whatever Li Zheng asked, and it was absolutely true, without even a hint. false.

Seeing Mr. Ai's very sincere expression, Li Zheng felt even more ridiculous.

What do you mean?
Duke Cao becomes prime minister?
Liu Bei becomes emperor?
This this……

Is this special?
Duke Cao actually became Liu Bei's subordinate?
"Liu, Liu Bei, is Liu Bei the one from Xuzhou?"

"Yes." Mr. Ai was heartbroken.

"He, when did he vote for Duke Cao?"

Mr. Ai sighed painfully:

"After Duke Cao defeated Lu Bu, Lu Bu ran to Xuzhou.

Later, Lu Bu committed another crime and robbed Liu Bei of his territory. Liu Bei had no choice but to go to Cao Gong.

Duke Cao was so nice to Liu Bei, and even talked about heroes over wine with him. Oh wow, Duke Cao is really a great hero, a great hero, and a great good man! "

Li Zheng was completely confused.

He couldn't believe it, but Mr. Ai said everything so skillfully, without any sign of forgery, that almost drove Li Zheng crazy.

Liu Bei becomes emperor?
Mr. Cao...how could Mr. Cao do such a thing?

impossible!Impossible, how could Mr. Cao be the one to do such a thing!

Is it...

"Duke Cao...died in front of Liu Bei?"

"What is death?"

"Just, it's death!" Li Zheng's tongue was tied. He pressed Mr. Ai's shoulders hard and said eagerly, "Is it true, is it true that Duke Cao dies first, and then Liu Bei becomes emperor after his death?"

Mr. Ai continued to wipe his tears and said truthfully with sobs:
"Who says it isn't?

A good man like Cao Gong never became emperor in his life. He died young, and Liu Bei became emperor shamelessly..."

Li Zheng was like a bolt from the blue.

He seemed to understand the reason why the Li family was unknown in history.

Right!
This is not entirely correct!
We are not Liu Bei's Yuan Cong, so after helping the Han Dynasty, we will naturally not write anything special about me. In other words, Mancheng has the strength to follow others and has some meager military exploits, so he will not be reused.

Damn it, how can this be allowed?

I, the Li family, have worked hard for half my life, but in the end it was completely useless, making wedding clothes for others?

This day is not a holiday, and no one can save it. Cao Gong died early. I... what can I do with all the hard work of my Li family!

Li Zheng seemed to be stupid and couldn't accept it at all. Waves of dazzling made him unable to distinguish between east, west, north and south. He couldn't believe what Mr. Ai said was true.

Mr. Ai could not see Li Zheng’s discomfort at all and was still boasting:

"Gong Qi, I have never said this to maggot concubine, I have only said it to you!
We are our own people. Well, Maggots is unreliable. I think his conspiracy was discovered, so he fled back to Liangshan in despair.

When he comes back later, Gong Qi must not fall into the trap! "

Li Zheng came back to his senses and said confusedly:
"What did you just say?"

"I said..." Mr. Ai was about to talk loudly, but his eyes suddenly froze.

Li Zheng waved his hand in front of his eyes.

"what happened?"

"Eat, eat..."

"What? What do you want to eat?"

"Eating cat and mouse! Here comes the eating cat and mouse!" Mr. Ai turned around and ran away, and happened to step on the snow. His feet slipped and he banged his head on the ground, and then he screamed in agony.

Li Zheng thought to himself: How could a rat be so scary?

He turned around and followed Mr. Ai's gaze, and saw a group of cavalry slowly approaching in the distance. These cavalry were dark and leisurely, stepping gracefully in the snow.

It's just that Li Zheng has no time to appreciate this superb equestrian skill now——

Li Zheng, the figure at the front of the cavalry, seemed vaguely familiar.

He rubbed his eyes, suddenly trembling all over, and thought of a terrifying name.

"Zhang, Zhang Liao! Zhang Liao is here!"
