After the defeat of the Liaodong vassal state, it was nominally occupied by the Han army, but this was not the case in reality.
In order to show his sincerity in recruiting Liaodong to surrender, Zhao Yun deliberately stopped his advance in Changli City.
That is to say, the line between Changli, Bindu, and Tuhe was occupied by the Han army, but the east side was not occupied.
This also brought opportunities to Cao Pi and Wang Lie.
Not far east of Changli, there is another important military town known for its dangerous terrain, which is Fuli City.
Fuli City is backed by mountains, using the mountains as cover to form a natural barrier.
Both sides are covered by mountains, making it difficult to attack. You only need to resist the front.
After getting Fuli Shang under his command, Wang Lie and Cao Pi made a decision.
When you go to Xingye, you must use Fuli as your foundation to resist the Han army!
Due to the unique terrain of the Liaodong vassal state, Fuli City cannot be bypassed.
If you want to attack inside, you must capture Fuli!
After three days and three nights of traveling, we finally arrived at Fuli City.
On the top of the city, Cao Pi and Wang Lie were relieved at the same time after seeing no banner with Chinese characters.
God finally favored them once!
Without any hesitation, the entire army poured into Fuli and quickly took over the city defense.
After asking the officials in the city, they found that the Han army had never sent troops to help Li!
This made Cao Pi and Wang Lie extremely excited.
Even the fatigue of traveling day and night is gone.
On the one hand, the city defense is deployed, and on the other hand, the city defense equipment is built.
In short, the soldiers stationed in Fuli City had no chance to breathe at all, and they were all busy again.
After another two days and nights of intense work, the beginning of the project finally took shape.
Originally, Wang Lie wanted to continue giving orders to the soldiers, but was stopped by Cao Pi.
The soldiers are so tired!
From rushing on the road, to setting up city defenses, and now having to build defensive equipment forcibly, who can bear it?
Ten thousand people, apart from eating and drinking water, only have time to breathe.
Even an iron man can't stand it.
The army was full of complaints and dissatisfaction.
It seems that before the battle with the Han army, our own side is about to blow up the camp!
Cao Pi really couldn't understand why Wang Lie was like this!
As a general, who is so inconsiderate to the soldiers, who is willing to die for him?
I even doubted in my heart whether there was a fundamental reason why Wang Lie was not reused.
However, in order not to break the friendly relationship with Wang Lie, Cao Pi persuaded him very tactfully and told him some practical truths.
Cao Pi originally thought that this reminder would make Wang Lie suddenly realize.
Not to mention being grateful to him, you should also be grateful for making up for your mistakes.
Who would have thought that he would almost become angry!
"Master Cao, I respect you, but you can't act so wantonly!"
"Do you know what a sin it is to disturb the morale of the troops on the battlefield?"
Cao Pi was stunned when he heard this.
He rubbed his eyes and looked at Wang Lie carefully.
For a moment, he thought it was Bei Yan standing in front of him!
"General Wang, is what Gu said wrong?"
In order to win over Wang Lie, Cao Pi once again chose to swallow his anger.
He didn't believe it. The ironclad truth was right in front of him, but Wang Lie refused to recognize it!
But it turned out that Wang Lie not only denied it, but also scolded Cao Pi.
"What's right? There's no war in Xiangping City, so I can let you order it, but now, don't blame me for being ruthless!"
"Master Cao should know what defeat means!"
Cao Pi didn't know how to express his mood at the moment.
It's like a good friend suddenly turned into an enemy who killed his father!
The extreme change in relationship and attitude was completely unacceptable to him.
"General Wang, you..."
"Okay! If there's nothing else, Mr. Cao, please do it!"
"The General is very busy with affairs!"
After saying that, he left without looking back, leaving Cao Pi where he was.
He wasn't even given a chance to persuade him not to squeeze the soldiers' words!
what happened?
Cao Pi stood there for a long time, unable to let go and unable to accept Wang Lie's attitude towards him.
Everything seemed to be back to the time when they had just arrived in Xiangping and Wang Lie was scolding and making things difficult for him.
Suddenly, Cao Pi's spirit was shaken, and an idea ran through him.
Could it be that when he left before, he was mistakenly thought that he did not support him in his decision-making?
Apart from this, Cao Pi never offended Wang Lie at all.
After all, Wang Lie led his troops to the Prefecture Mufu for him.
With this explanation, Cao Pi suddenly felt relieved.
If he was at fault first and Wang Lie was disappointed, it would still be okay. . . Passable!
Cao Pi shrugged and took the initiative to go into the city.
Now that Wang Lie is angry, communication is very difficult. Not only is there no way to resolve conflicts, but it will actually arouse them.
There is really no need to rush.
Calm down first, and then find an opportunity to speak clearly.
At least, that's what Cao Pi thought.
Cao Pi went to rest, but the 10,000-strong army was not idle at all, and was forced to work all night again.
There were complaints and rumors in the army. The morale of the army was shaken and morale collapsed.
Cao Pi was so anxious that he stamped his feet.
He couldn't figure out why Wang Lie was so stubborn and stubborn. Could he not see the condition of the soldiers?
If this continues, without the Han army attacking, the soldiers will mutiny.
Who could endure such endless servitude?
The soldiers are no longer soldiers, they have become slaves!
There was no other way, so Cao Pi could only disrupt his opportunity and go to Wang Lie.
The result was exactly as Cao Pi expected, and Wang Lie didn't even bother to look at him.
It was as if there was only hatred in his eyes and nothing else.
Cao Pi was really embarrassed. He didn't feel so uncomfortable even if his hot face pressed against his cold butt.
But for the sake of the great cause and for myself, I had to speak.
Even in a low voice.
As a result, just as he was getting ready, Wang Lie's sarcasm arrived.
"If nothing happens, don't disturb me."
"Ben will be very busy!"
