At this time, the time has reached the seventh year of Jian'an. It has been more than ten years since Li He gave Cao Cao a calligraphy test and the eighteen princes attacked Dong Zhuo. Cao Cao, who once had no soldiers or generals and was wanted all over the world for assassinating Dong Zhuo,

He also became the largest prince in the world today.

He even deposed the Han Emperor, ascended the throne and proclaimed himself emperor, and changed the country's name to "Wei Wu".

And Lu Bu, who had chased Cao Cao and killed him until he had no way to go to heaven or earth, became his minister. Even Lu Bu, who was famous for his erratic character, did not dare to have the slightest intention of rebellion, let alone

The strength of rebellion.

Because Cao Cao's power now is too great!

As for the top generals, there are a large group such as Dian Wei, Xu Chu, Ma Chao, Zhao Yun, etc., as well as a group of top counselors who are extremely intelligent and capable of strategizing, and are far more powerful than the generals.

Guo Jia, Chen Gong, Li Ru, Cheng Yu, Xun Yu, Xun You, Lu Su...

There were so many capable ministers and powerful generals that they could not be counted. Among them, Lu Bu was even a little inconspicuous and could not make waves at all.

And the military strength, after digesting Yuan Shao's territory and taking over Hanzhong and Xiliang, has reached 1.5 million. Even if the troops are divided into ten groups, the strength of each group is no less than that of one of the princes. Together they are even enough to rival those at their peak.

The Han Dynasty is long and short!

After proclaiming himself emperor, Li He's cultivation improved by leaps and bounds, and the "Tianshi Hall" under his command, headed by Zhang Lu, was also established.

With a large number of heavenly masters, top-notch generals and top counselors, the overall strength of the Wei Dynasty is so strong that it can be said to be extremely rare throughout Chinese history.

Under such circumstances, how could Cao Cao be afraid of the so-called "Red Cliff Alliance"?

"Don't be careless." Li He shook his head and said: "Mengde, haven't you always wanted to ask me, who will win the world in the future? In the future I saw, Mengde, you have an army of millions, and you will win three thirds of the world.

Secondly, there are only a hundred thousand soldiers in Jiangdong left, and there will be no rivals."

"Then what?" Cao Cao asked.

"You were defeated. The three parts of the world have been fighting for decades, and they were still unable to unify until your grandson became emperor." Li He said: "What we did before were just details. Whether it can change the future?

Let’s see if we can win this Chibi Battle!”

Hearing this, Cao Cao remained silent and didn't say much.

He is suspicious by nature and has no 100% trust in anyone.

He believed in Li He, but he did not rule out the possibility that he was being alarmist.

He even wondered whether Li He let Liu Bei go on purpose and promoted Zhuge Liang in order to put himself under pressure so that he could rely more on him?

There is no answer to this question, and he will not explore it.

But occasionally, I really think about it!

"This battle must be won!" Cao Cao said.

Next, as if history was repeating itself, Cao Cao's army faced the allied forces of the princes and pushed all the way to Chibi. The allied forces of the princes, who were originally at odds with each other due to various reasons, finally united and worked together at Chibi to stop Cao Cao.

On the other side of the Yangtze River.

At this point, the forces of both sides have increased significantly, and the Battle of Chibi, which is even more massive than in the original work, has begun.

"Master, is Zhuge Liang really as scholarly as you said?" Cao Cao said from the top of Red Cliff, looking across the Yangtze River.

Hearing this, Li He smiled and said, "If your Majesty doesn't believe it, just beat him a few feet and you will know."

Because the alliance of princes was far more complicated than the alliance between Sun and Liu in the original work, and there was no good old man like Lu Su to deal with it, the alliance at the beginning was not strong, and they even fought for power and benefit to avenge themselves, and it was almost chaos.

Zhuge Liang, who worked hard to promote the alliance, not only did not get the coach, but also his power was taken away.

It was because Liu Bei's power was too weak, his master was not good enough, and his ministers were not strong-willed in their speech.

Therefore, in the first few battles, the coalition forces retreated steadily and did not organize enough counterattack forces. As a result, they lost most of Jingzhou in a short period of time. In the end, just like in the original work, they fought a decisive battle in Chibi.

Chibi is the last line of defense. Once it is lost, the coalition of princes will no longer be able to resist.

Feeling the crisis, they finally united and handed power to Zhuge Liang, who had brokered the alliance, and he commanded the war. Zhou Yu, who was originally the commander-in-chief, became his deputy general, and the two of them fought against Cao Cao together.

This is a little different from the Battle of Chibi in the original work, but Zhuge Liang who is in power is definitely much more terrifying than the Zhuge Liang who can only make suggestions in the original work!

"Water warfare is inseparable from bows and arrows, but we have bows but not enough arrows," Zhou Yu said.

After hearing this, Zhuge Liang thought for a moment and said: "In this way, you go and arrange twenty large ships with straw men on them. In seven days, they will circle in front of Cao's camp. They will only engage in battle, not attack, and borrow their arrows.

!”

"Okay!" Zhou Yu nodded.

Then seven days later, twenty large ships carried the straw men and headed to Cao Ying's formation.

At the same time, heavy fog rose over the river.

"It's foggy today. Do you think it's possible for the coalition forces to take advantage of the fog to make a sneak attack?" Cao Cao asked a group of counselors.

Upon hearing this, Chen Gong immediately said: "I think it is unlikely. The heavy fog will not only block our sight, but also their sight. Although it is not conducive to defense, it is also not conducive to offense."

These words made everyone agree very much.

"But with Zhuge Liang's character, he will not do nothing." Li He said.

Immediately, Cao Cao smiled and said, "Master, do you dare to make a small bet with me?"

"What to bet on?" Li He asked.

"Bet on whether Zhuge Liang will come to cause trouble." Cao Cao said: "If he doesn't come to cause trouble, I win. How about you, the national master, perform the art of attracting thunder from the sky in front of me to open our eyes?"

All this time, Li He has not shown any magic, even when he first dealt with Zuo Ci, he could not see the momentum.

The only person who had ever seen Li He cast a spell was Lu Bu.

For this reason, Cao Cao felt very sorry.

Regarding Cao Cao's proposal, Li He nodded with a smile and said, "Okay, but if Zhuge Liang comes to cause trouble, what do you lose, Your Majesty?"

"What does the Imperial Master want?" Cao Cao asked.

"I heard that Cao Cao and Cao Mengde were not only good at running the country, but also good at poetry and poetry. If we lose this bet, how about your majesty drinking ten drinks and writing a poem for us on the spot?" Li He said.

Upon hearing this, Cao Cao immediately laughed and said happily: "Okay."

Li He could feel that another piece of warm luck had arrived.

Then, as if cooperating with him, the straw boat sent by Zhuge Liang drove to the gate of Cao Ying to call for formation and began to borrow arrows. Cao Cao said, "It's the master's clever plan. I will drink ten glasses of wine for today's dinner.

A poem."

At this time, Lu Bu in the crowd asked: "Your Majesty, Lu Bu invites you to fight!"

Among them all, he is the most belligerent because he always wants to defeat the coalition forces and then kill the big-eared thief Liu Bei.

"There is no need to go to war." Cao Cao said with a smile: "We have enough bows and arrows, and we can't shoot them all in a year, so why send people to fight desperately? Send an order to send forty ships and fifty thousand archers out to meet the enemy."

This is the same as in the original work, falling into Zhuge Liang's "borrowing arrows from a straw boat" scheme.

However, Li He did not stop him, but asked Zhang Ludao: "Is your 'Tianshi Hall' ready? We transformed 'Throwing Beans into Soldiers' into 'Throwing Rice into Arrows', which can be sent
