There is nothing more humiliating than being a general in the army and being reduced to a city defender.
The huge difference in status is something that almost no one can accept.
Cao Pi believed that it was second only to becoming a commoner from the king of Wei.
When the king of Wei reaches the common people, he can remain anonymous and have no way of knowing.
But from a general to a small soldier, everyone is indeed ridiculed.
Whether it is former subordinates, colleagues, or people with conflicts, they will be increasingly targeted and humiliated.
As time goes by, the resentment becomes deeper!
What Wang Lie wants is to find a chance to reverse his course and regain his high position.
The current general Cao Zhang is the best choice.
Unfortunately, he lost the first battle and had no chance to make a comeback.
From hope to despair, he was hit hard again!
If there is no way to change all this, then seeking death may not be an option.
Cao Pi firmly believed that Wang Lie was the former.
I firmly believe that this is an excellent time, a great opportunity to recruit powerful generals for my first time after claiming the position of King of Wei!
"General Wang, actually you don't have to be so pessimistic. Things are unpredictable. Who can say for sure?"
"pessimistic?"
Wang Lie sneered, not caring at all.
"If we say pessimism, who can be as pessimistic as you?"
"My body is dead and my country is destroyed, but I am still dreaming about King Wei's spring and autumn dream! When will you wake up?"
Cao Pi was stunned.
"You... do you know that Gu is the King of Wei?"
"King Wei? You can really shout!"
Seeing that he was discovered, Wang Lie stopped prevaricating and covering up.
"Cao Pi, why don't you think about it, is there anyone in this world who recognizes your position as the King of Wei?"
"Have you forgotten that even your good-for-nothing father Cao Cao died in the battle?"
"You are so brave!"
When Cao Pi heard the insults to Cao Cao, he exploded instantly.
As the founder of Wei State, a being that even Liu Zhang respected, how could he be insulted by a reckless man?
"Wang Lie, if you dare to insult the late king again, I will kill you!"
"Okay, don't you dare!"
Wang Lie curled his lips in disdain and pushed away the long sword hanging from his neck.
Cao Pi was unprepared and his sword slipped.
Now he was even more furious and wanted to raise his sword to threaten him again.
Unexpectedly, before he could lift it up, he was stopped by Cao Zhang beside him.
"Second brother, what are you doing?"
Cao Zhang didn't say anything, just shook his head gently.
The meaning is obvious, don't waste your efforts.
Cao Pi mistakenly thought that Cao Zhang felt that he could not defeat Wang Lie, so he ordered angrily.
"Second brother, capture this madman! He dares to insult the late king. You must not be allowed to go around!"
But this order was once again ignored by Cao Zhang.
Not even a single move.
Cao Pi was so embarrassed and angry that he had been ignored by Cao Zhang countless times today.
It’s really like what Wang Lie said. How many people still recognize the title of King of Wei?
This is true even for his half-brother!
Cao Pi couldn't help but miss Cao Chong.
In fact, Cao Chong had always regarded him as the king of Wei sincerely, but Cao Chong was already gone.
Shaking his head and quickly getting rid of this more irritating thought, Cao Pi stared at Cao Zhang with a serious face.
"Second brother, didn't you hear this madman humiliating the late king?"
"Even if it's not for Gu, as the son of the late king, shouldn't I do something?"
Cao Zhang gently closed his eyes, as if he was concentrating, or pretending to be deaf and dumb.
In short, just ignore it.
This scene was so ridiculous that Wang Lie was shocked.
"Ha ha ha ha!"
"Cao Pi, Cao Pi, to live like this, you can be regarded as the first person in ancient and modern times!"
"People without virtue can reach this point. No wonder Wei fell!"
"shut up!"
Cao Pi almost roared.
"As long as Gu Tiantian is still here, the Wei Kingdom will never perish!"
"Then you can perish today."
Upon hearing this, Cao Pihan couldn't help but tremble.
What do you mean, do you mean to tell him that he will die today?
"Wang Lie, I will drag you with me today even if I die!"
"The demise of the Wei Dynasty will definitely be supported by you!"
"Yeah?"
Wang Lie sneered, not taking Cao Pi into his eyes at all.
Even with bare hands, it's easy to control Cao Pi, so what's there to fear?
"hateful!"
Cao Pi also understood this truth and did not dare to attack easily with his sword.
Moreover, Cao Zhang was still blocking him, which made him even more puzzled.
"Second brother, didn't you hear what this madman said?"
"Are you really so indifferent?"
"A scholar can be killed but not humiliated. The Wei Dynasty can die, but it must not die in such humiliation!"
"My late king, I will not allow you to be humiliated like this!"
After repeated yelling and scolding, Cao Zhang finally reacted.
But his eyes were still so cold, and he couldn't see any anger, let alone think that he would become violent and deal with Wang Lie.
"Second brother?"
Cao Zhang didn't respond. He raised his chin slightly and arched it upward.
"What's the meaning?"
Cao Pi didn't understand and looked confused.
Cao Zhang repeated his previous actions again.
Now Cao Pi understood, it meant the above.
What could be on it?
City wall?
Cao Pi looked up with suspicion.
The sun was so bright that I had to block it with my palms. It took a while to calm down before I could see everything clearly.
Immediately, he was stunned.
It was this look that completely broke his heart.
"This... this... this... what is this!"
Cao Pi's voice trembled, completely unable to accept the scene in front of him.
Everything that I didn't understand before is now understood.
At the same time, new doubts were brewing in my heart.
This doubt is not at the same level as before!
"Why..."
Cao Zhang spoke, lamenting with a sense of powerlessness.
"Brother, why do you think I am like this?"
"If there is no way, if there is nothing we can do, how can I allow him to be arrogant!"
What could be more unacceptable than having the opponent captured and taking his life with a wave of his hand, but being helpless when the opponent is arrogant and domineering?
Cao Zhang's shape is like a blazing fire, and his sex is as violent as thunder!
With his temper, how could he tolerate it?
But for the great cause, for the country of Wei, and for the life and death of the three brothers, we can only turn a blind eye.
When Cao Pi wanted to commit murder, he had to stop him.
Cao Zhang felt really aggrieved!
