Langya County.

In the cave, Zhuge Liang saw with his own eyes that his master had made two mistakes in a row. He became very obedient for a moment and looked at the image on the Eight Formation Diagram without saying a word.

"Hehe, hahahaha!"

Unexpectedly, Zhang Liang suddenly laughed at this time. At first it was just a chuckle, but then it turned into a laugh.

Zhuge Liang said: "Master, are you okay?"

"It's okay, it's okay, Master, I'm happy."

"Ah? You fell into someone else's trap, and you're still happy?"

Zhang Liang said with a smile: "You don't understand. When you meet a good talent, you will meet an opponent. If a person is too invincible, he will be lonely. But now, I have met an opponent."

Why do the vast majority of god refiners in this world choose to become civil servants?

Because the method of refining the gods will greatly increase a person's brain calculation ability. If it is an ordinary person, at most it can make his brain react faster. But if it is someone with unparalleled resourcefulness, this kind of calculation ability

The increase represents the growth of their intelligence.

As early as 400 years ago, Zhang Liang was called a sage seeker. His strategies and knowledge were among the top in that era. Now, his method of refining gods has reached the peak of the Xuantian (fifth level) realm, which is only one step away.

He can reach the realm of the legendary sage, and his wisdom can be imagined.

In terms of intelligence, no one in the world today can match him.

In terms of strength, only those seniors from outside the world can compete with him.

It’s been 400 years, invincible and lonely.

Now, Luo Zhi had deceived him twice in a row, but it made him a little bit interested.

Of course, this is just interest, he is not serious.

Because Zhang Liang knew in his heart that the reason why he was deceived was because he had been thousands of miles away and watched through the Eight Formation Diagram.

If he were there in person, Luo Zhi would never be able to trick his glasses.

However, just like some masters will seal their own strength to fight against others in order to seek excitement, Zhang Liang's interest will only stay thousands of miles away and will never go to the front line in person.

Because that would be boring.

Looking back, Zhang Liang saw a puzzled expression on his disciple's face, touched his head and said: "Disciple, you have unparalleled talents, and one day you will be invincible in the world. By then, you will be able to understand this

Feel it."

In the small city, Yuan Shao was high-spirited and ordered: "Everyone, Hua Xiong is dead now, and the Sishui Pass is in front of you. Immediately, the whole army will march forward, break through the Sishui Pass, enter Luoyang, and kill the Dong thief!"

At that moment, all the princes obeyed the order and the whole army took action and marched towards Sishui Pass.

After leaving the camp, Sun Jian met Luo Zhi and asked coldly: "Gu Xian, you clearly have the strength to kill Hua Xiong, why don't you march with me?"

Normally, Sun Jian was not such an impulsive person, but three of the four generals were dead, and only ten of his troops were left, which made him feel a little uncomfortable recently, so he rushed directly to Luo Zhi to ask.

Luo Zhidao: "Sishui Pass is easy to defend but difficult to attack. There are 50,000 soldiers and horses guarding it. This is the reason. General Sun, I only have more than 10,000 people. They put their lives in my hands, so I naturally have to consider them."

.”

Sun Jian had nothing to say, turned around and left with a cold face.

Luo Zhi returned to his tent. Before he could sit down, he saw Li Gongtu walking in and asked: "County magistrate, I saw all the coalition forces in action. It seems they are going to attack Sishui Pass. When will we set off?"

Luo Zhi asked: "Why do you want to set off?"

"Ah?" Li Gongtu was puzzled.

At this time, Chen Gong also walked in and said: "County Magistrate Gu, I was just about to remind you not to attack Sishui Pass, but I didn't expect you already knew it."

Luo Zhi chuckled and said: "Gongtai, have you thought of it too? Then please explain it to Gongtai."

Chen Gong then turned to Li Gongtu and said: "Our county magistrate has already achieved great success by killing Hua Xiong alone. If he attacks Sishui Pass again, wouldn't he be competing with other princes for credit?"

Li Gongtu understood immediately, nodded and said: "The county magistrate is indeed wise."

"Okay, you go back and do your thing."

Li Gongtu nodded and resigned, but Chen Gong did not leave. He said to Luo Zhi: "There is a second reason. Sishui Pass is an eternal pass and is guarded by 50,000 soldiers and horses. It is definitely not easy to defeat."

Luo Zhi laughed and said: "Heroes have similar opinions. However, there is no need to say this reason."

Chen Gong nodded and then said: "Your subordinate Li Gongtu has enough brains to handle small things, but he can't handle big things like this. In the future, if you want to achieve great things, you still need to

We need to recruit some more powerful counselors."

Luo Zhidao: "I know that Li Gongtu's purpose is to help me manage the more than a thousand people. With him here, I save a lot of things."

To put it bluntly, most of the eighteen princes are mediocre. Before, Hua Xiong was so fierce that no one was willing to send people to fight against Hua Xiong. But now, Hua Xiong is dead, but they are quickly gathering troops.

Horses, as if someone was driving them behind.

The purpose is simple - to gain credit!

Yuan Shao, Yuan Shu, Kong Rong and other princes rushed forward with their troops and horses, as if victory was just around the corner, and then... they were defeated.

How can the ancient pass with fifty thousand soldiers and horses be won with such honor?

What's more, even though Hua Xiong died, Li Su was still guarding the city!

Who is Li Su?

He was a fellow villager of Lu Bu. He had previously persuaded Lu Bu to surrender to Dong Zhuo. Although he held the position of military general, his resourcefulness was not weak. Later, he murdered Dong Zhuo together with Wang Yun and Lu Bu.

In terms of ingenuity, Li Su may not be as good as those top talents, but he can still be regarded as a name in the history of the Qing Dynasty. Under his command, the entire Sishui Pass defense was impenetrable. The princes fought all day and night, but they could not even attack the city wall.

.

At the same time, the battle report of Sishui Pass has also been sent to Luoyang.

After reading this, Dong Zhuo became furious and shouted: "Hua Xiong is also a waste, and he was killed by a small county magistrate!"

Li Rudao: "The coalition of princes has hundreds of thousands of troops, and the Sishui Pass cannot be held for a long time. Prime Minister, according to my son-in-law's opinion, we should send out troops immediately and march in two directions, one to support the Sishui Pass and the other to intercept the coalition of princes."

Dong Zhuo nodded and said: "Okay, Li Jue and Guo Si, you two will lead 50,000 troops and rush to Sishui Pass to block the coalition forces of the princes. The rest of the people will follow me and lead an army of 150,000 to intercept the princes!"

Everyone stood up quickly in response.

Li Ru added: "It is great for the Prime Minister to personally lead the troops. But after the Prime Minister leaves, how will Luoyang City be suppressed?"

Dong Zhuo thought about it, the little emperor and the ministers in Luoyang City all surrendered to him on the surface, but in their hearts they wanted to peel off his skin and drink his blood. Once he left, they would definitely cause trouble in the rear.

"What do you think we should do?"

"Why doesn't the Prime Minister kill the chicken to scare the monkeys?"

"Who to kill?"
