The north wind whistles and snowflakes flutter.

On the plank road with wind and snow, a caravan was moving forward in the snow in the biting cold wind. The speed was extremely slow, and it was not an exaggeration to say that it was difficult to move.

This unexpected blizzard came suddenly.

There was still a trace of sunshine in the morning, but the cold wind was blowing at noon. Just after noon, snowflakes fell and danced with the whistling cold wind.

But the roaring wind swayed freely with snowflakes. The white snowflakes turned into cold rain, splashing on the cheeks of passers-by on the plank road. It really made the cheeks hurt like sharp weapons.

It's okay to bully people. The worst thing is the ice rain wrapped in the cold wind. It's really cold and makes the pedestrians rushing through the snow so that their cheeks are red, forcing them to shrink their necks, close their collars, cover their cheeks, and only their mouths and noses are exposed. Even so, they are still trembling with coldness. As soon as they blew out a breath of heat, they instantly turned into ice fog. What can they do?

The sudden wind and snow caused the caravans moving forward in the snow to be badly affected.

The already slippery road was blown by the cold wind and condensed into ice at a speed visible to the naked eye, making it difficult for the horses to pull the cart to move forward and slipped three times in one step. Within just a quarter of an hour, more than twenty war horses fell down, causing six carriages to overturn on the plank road, and more than ten entourages fell to the sky, the neighing and painful screams were intertwined, but they could not withstand the roar of wind and snow. This situation made the entire caravan extremely embarrassed, complaining, but there was no way to do it.

Xi Yuyu!

As the war horses were neighing, the princes in the middle of the caravan suddenly shook, causing Zhuge Liang and Li Li in the car to be unstable, and then they turned to the side. Li Li was agile and stabilized his body as soon as possible. He would not fall, but Zhuge Liang was not so lucky, and his upper body tilted and hit the carriage.

"Uh!" Zhuge Liang did not scream in pain when his shoulders hurt, but groaned. Then, he reached out and supported the wall and bent over and stood up, pushed open a car door, and stretched out his head and looked out. A "swoosh" gust of cold wind came, causing his neck to shrink and his teeth to tremble. It seemed as if he fell into an ice hole, and his whole body was trembling.

"Clang!" Suddenly, Zhuge Liang took a step back and closed the car door in an instant, causing the car door to slam.

"A war horse fell down. Thanks to the personal soldiers' discovery in time, they carried the shaft of the carriage, otherwise the carriage would overturn. The lord waited for a while, and then I went down to push the carriage." After briefly explaining the reason why the carriage suddenly stopped, Zhuge Liang put on a cloak while talking, pushed open the door again, and then leaned over and got out of the car.

"Let's wait!" Li Li grabbed Zhuge Liang and reached out to take the sable fur and cloak on the couch. He waved his hand to signal Zhuge Liang to turn around and sit down, and said with a smile: "My brother is a scholar. He is not as strong as me. In addition, he has to organize the food and accommodation and trivial matters of food and accommodation in the group recently, and he is very tired. If you use the strength of this cart to work, please let me do it. Even if you sit here, you can leave the rest of your brother." While speaking, Li Li had already bent down and jumped out of the carriage.

"This is absolutely impossible!" Seeing Li Li get off the car, how could Zhuge Liang sit there? While getting up and getting off the car, he said anxiously: "The lord is a body of gold, how can he push the car for the empress? This is inappropriate, and he will never be able to do it!"

However, as soon as he got together, Li Li reached out to block the door of the car. "Don't say much, just do what I said. Since I am the lord, then listen to me and sit firmly. Don't hit the carriage again. Hahaha!" With a laugh, Li Li closed the door, rubbed his hands, and pushed the carriage with his personal soldiers and walked slowly forward.

At this time, the war horse that had just fallen was taken away by his personal soldiers and put on another war horse. Then, four personal soldiers protected the war horses and walked slowly with them. In this way, Li Li did not need to push the cart, but he did not get on the cart, but followed the cart on foot.

The road is indeed very difficult to walk, and you will slip if you are not careful. Therefore, Li Li walked very slowly, and he looked around and looked around, gradually landing behind the carriage.

"Huh, husband?" Through the small window of the carriage, He Ying accidentally caught sight of Li Li next to her carriage. In amazement, she quickly pushed open the car door and said softly: "Husband is too cold outside, husband, get in the car!"

"No, the road is too slippery, and the war horses can't use any force at all. One more person will give you a weight. Close the door quickly to avoid being frozen. My husband, I am strong and strong, and I can withstand this little wind and snow!" After saying that, Li Li said without saying a word, reached out to close the car door, waved his hand through the small window to signal He Ying not to worry.

Indeed, Li Li has been through the battlefield for a long time and is strong in the wind and snow. Not only does he feel cold, but he feels more and more energetic, his mind is particularly clear, and his breath that inhales into his mouth and nose is extremely fresh.

?As the evening approached, the wind and snow became more and more fierce, and it had already blocked its sight. Li Li and his party could only see things within fifty steps ahead. Even further away, there was a vast white snowflake.

Fortunately, just as night fell rapidly, the entourage who was exploring the way forward returned to Malai to report. There was an inn five hundred steps ahead. The entourage had already booked the entire inn and ordered the shop to prepare in advance.

This is undoubtedly the most exciting news for the entire caravan. Suddenly, the entourages, whose noses were red and their lips were purple, became brisk in their steps. Even if they fell down, they didn't care. They just ran forward, hoping to step into the station and get rid of this damn blizzard as soon as possible.

Li Li was already behind the team at this time, but he still insisted on walking forward and refused to sit back in the warm and comfortable carriage. Because of this, Li Zhi, the commander of the personal guard, surrounded him with more than 20 entourages (personal soldiers of the Jinqiu Guard) to shelter him from the wind and snow to avoid interrupting his thinking.

It is true that the reason why Li Li insisted on walking was that he couldn't help but think about the world pattern and the current situation in Yizhou as he walked.

Today, Li Li has occupied seven prefectures and counties, and most of the thirteen prefectures of the Han Dynasty have fallen into his hands. Judging from this situation, he seems to be sure to win, his strength is unprecedentedly strong, and he is the only one with a strong leader. However, this is just a superficial situation, but it is not actually the case.

Before the crushing defeat in Yecheng, Li Li once believed that after he destroyed Yuan Shao, the world would be invincible, and the day to unify the world was just around the corner, and it was almost time to win the kingdom. However, the defeat in Jizhou made him almost hate Yecheng and died. Even if he escaped by luck, the Xiliang army under his command paid an extremely heavy price for this, and his strength dropped by 30%, which almost completely offset all the results of his capture of Youzhou, Yuzhou, Huainan and Xuzhou, and even more.

This unprecedented defeat made Li Li still difficult to let go. He repeatedly recalled the whole story of the Battle of Jizhou, reflected on every decision he made, and finally came to an astonishing conclusion. This is that every decision he made in the entire battle could not be said to be a mistake or a mistake. It was an extremely rational decision, but the result was that things went against their wishes, and they were completely trapped in the destruction that Yuan Shao and Cao Cao had already designed, resulting in such a disastrous defeat.

This result reminded him of several large-scale wars in the Three Kingdoms battle in memory. Almost all the battles of defeating the more with few and weak with strong, which have many similarities with the battle in Jizhou that he experienced.

First, the Battle of Guandu was a key battle between Cao Cao and Yuan Shao to decide the ownership of the Central Plains. Yuan Shao attacked Cao Cao with his absolute superiority of five times Cao Cao like Mount Tai, but Cao Cao burned Wuchao when the battle was in a stalemate, thus laying the foundation for victory, and then conquering the entire Central Plains, laying a solid foundation for the future Cao Wei world.

Second, the Battle of Red Cliff was a subversive battle in which Cao Cao lost the unification of the world. With an unprecedented advantage of ten times the Jiangdong Army, he tried to swallow Jiangdong with a whale swallowing force, but unexpectedly, he failed at the last moment, and was defeated and destroyed half of his life. If there was no Battle of Red Cliff, how could the Three Kingdoms compete for hegemony in the subsequent chaotic times of the Eastern Han Dynasty last for a hundred years?

Imagine that Cao Cao fought in the north and south for half his life, winning most of the world, but was on the small Red Cliff. Could it be that he was really lost by victory and arrogant to the point of being foolish and incompetent? The truth is definitely not like this. He fought in the world for decades, how could he be arrogant and forgetful at the last moment? However, he was defeated in the end, and he was defeated unprecedentedly, and he lost the best opportunity to unify the world in his life, and then he never had the chance to unify the world again.

Third, the Battle of Yiling is a battle that determines the fate of Shu Han. In fact, it is no different from Cao Cao's Battle of Red Cliff, almost the same as that of Cao Cao, and it was eventually destroyed by the word "fire". It was precisely because of Yiling's defeat that damaged the most elite army of Shu Han and consumed countless money, grain and weapons, which made the subsequent more than ten Northern Expeditions all start and end with a slash, and they returned without success. They were eventually completely destroyed by Cao Wei's sneak attack.

Using history as a mirror can help you know the rise and fall; using people as a mirror can help you know the gains and losses.

Everything has changed due to Li Li's appearance, but this did not prevent him from learning from his experiences and lessons, because he also encountered a crushing defeat that he thought he was sure to win. This sounded the alarm for him, making him deeply realize that "the situation on the battlefield changes rapidly" is definitely not an empty word, but a real existence. Before victory is placed in front of him, everything is illusory. Even the cooked duck may fly away, and even the fat meat placed beside him may disappear, all this is just because there is no absolute in the world.

Xi Yuyu!

"Bang!" A war horse clamored and neighed, interrupting Li Li's thoughts, instantly bringing him back to the snow and ice. Then a faint sound of help came from his ears: "Help, help, help, help!" With a loud bang, the sound of help stopped abruptly, and the last "ah" scream came into Li Li's ears, which also made him quickly determine the direction of the sound of help.

"What are you doing around me? Go and save people!" As Xunsheng turned his head and looked behind him, Li Li took the reins from Li Zhi's hand, turned over the horse, and called the personal soldiers around him to follow him to save people.
