Episode 0295: Know what to expect
Li Ru is Dong Zhuo's son-in-law, is the henchman of the confidant, when Dong Zhuo led the order to Wuguan, it coincided with Li Ru's newlywed Yan'er, and Dong Zhuo also aimed to invite merit, and had no determination to attack Wuguan, so Dong Zhuo did not call Li Ru to accompany him, but he didn't want to make a mistake, Dong Zhuo, who lacked good strategy, was actually played by Peng Yu in the palm of his hand, and even his life was almost lost.
However, although the process was miserable, fortunately, the result was good, and Dong Zhuo was a blessing in disguise and served as the Taishou of Xuchang.
Although Li Ru is in Chang'an, he knows Dong Zhuo's experience well, and when he learns of Dong Zhuo's miserable experience, he sighs secretly in his heart, but it's a pity that he is not there, if he is here, how can Dong Gong be so difficult?
Li Ru has always thought very highly of himself, how can he serve a Peng Yu?
Under such circumstances, how could he not take the opportunity to retaliate when he learned that Peng Yu had come to Chang'an?
Li Ru asked the Dong family and officials of Chang'an to make a lot of money in the name of General Peng's reception and the construction of the Taishou Mansion in Chang'an, which ruined Peng Yu's reputation and was also a strategy set by Li Ru.
Li Ru acted like this in Chang'an, of course, the result was expected, Peng Yu heard this, if he was disrespectful and colluded with the Dong family, then the officials in Luoyang would definitely not let go of Peng Yu, and over time, people would definitely be impeached from time to time, so how could Peng Yu be in Chang'an for a long time?
If Peng Yu wantonly punished the Dong family and Luoyang officials in Chang'an, it would also leave a great hidden danger, first, Dong Zhuo was a clansman recognized by the Queen Mother, in other words, the backer of the Dong family was the Queen Mother Dong, who would dare to be presumptuous? Second, all the officials of Chang'an participated in it, the so-called law does not blame the public, once Peng Yu punishes the officials of Chang'an, he will be centrifuged up and down, how can Chang'an be governed well?
Li Ru was secretly proud in his heart, what could Peng Yu do with his own plan?
When Li Ru's strategy was implemented in Chang'an, as Peng Yu's various glorious deeds came to Li Ru's ears, Li Ru's understanding of Peng Yu deepened day by day, and slowly Li Ru became more and more worried day by day, and became more and more afraid day by day.
Finally, one day, Li Ru suddenly woke up to the fact that these strategies he set up were treated too guarded, which made him in a dilemma, and it was difficult to ride a tiger, but for a general with outstanding military achievements, it was simply a drowsiness and a pillow, and he was sent to death to wash his neck.
It's a pity that the matter has been vigorously implemented in Chang'an for a long time, and it is useless to stop it again, so Li Ru has no choice but to make another bitter trick.
To say that the Dong family has nearly 1,000 people in Chang'an, but there are only more than 100 relatives who have dealings with Dong Zhuo, in this case, Li Ru immediately asked Dong Zhuo's relatives to withdraw from Luoyang in batches, or go south to Xuchang, or go north to Tianshui, or go east to Luoyang.
As for the other relatives Li Ru, they can't control a lot, once they anger Peng Yu and start killing, they will only die as relatives, of course, these people will not die in vain, just to supplement the mistakes and omissions of Li Ru's strategy.
Li Ru secretly said, once these people are killed, as long as Dong Zhuo tells the Queen Mother about it, the Queen Mother will not give up, Peng Yu's killing of the Queen Mother's clansmen is almost equivalent to rebellion, once the Queen Mother handles it properly, even if Peng Yu does not die, he will definitely not be able to stay in Chang'an, so in time, Dong Zhuo will definitely be transferred back to Chang'an.
I have to say that Li Ru is worthy of being one of the two most poisonous strategists in the Han Dynasty, and he actually used the lives of hundreds of Dong family members to set a trap for Peng Yu.
After everything was arranged in Chang'an, Li Ru of course had to go to Xuchang to do his best for Dong Zhuo, but Li Ru thought very highly of himself, thinking that it was okay to rely on his own wits to leave safely, and he really wanted to see with his own eyes how Peng Yu would act, so Li Ru was waiting for Peng Yu to come in Chang'an.
Li Ru waited hard in Chang'an, but he never expected Peng Yu to be so sharp, kill the Empress Dowager's clan without mercy, and even take down the officials of Chang'an by thunderous means, and even such a big event, Peng Yu himself did not show up.
Li Ru was shocked, knowing that he had underestimated Peng Yu too much, and he didn't dare to stay in Chang'an anymore, so he immediately mixed in with the people and wanted to rush to Xuchang.
Li Ru was mixed in the people, dressed up in disguise, but he didn't expect to be almost beheaded, of course, Li Ru left a bad anger in his heart, but he had nowhere to vent.
After Li Ru fled from Chang'an, he arrived in Xuchang safely more than a month ago, and when he returned to Xuchang, Li Ru immediately cried to Dong Zhuo about what happened to the Dong family in Chang'an.
When Li Ru informed Dong Zhuo of the whole story one by one and asked Dong Zhuo to immediately report to the Queen Mother to sue the royal complaint, he never expected that Dong Zhuo, who was tyrannical in Chang'an, said lightly, "People can't be resurrected after death, the old man mourns and changes, as for suing Peng Yu, it is absolutely impossible, this matter is over, and no extraneous branches can be made!" ”
Li Ru almost closed his breath, and after re-examining Dong Zhuo, he found that he hadn't seen him for half a year, and his father-in-law had lost all his sharpness, where was there still half a bit of heroism?
After Li Ru slowly figured out what happened to Dong Zhuo, his heart was also full of sighs, it turned out that after Dong Zhuo got along with Peng Yu, whenever he heard the word "Peng Yu", he was short of breath, and he was even more like a frightened bird to Peng Yu.
Dong Zhuo is full of aggression in Chang'an, although he is a little brutal, but he has a heroic spirit, Li Ru really didn't expect that he would be so depressed after not seeing him for a few months, and Li Ru also put Peng Yu's matter behind him for the time being, and wanted to let Dong Zhuo regain his strength.
Li Ru thought about it in Xuchang, if he wanted Dong Zhuo to regain his strength, he couldn't compete with Peng Yu, this was a taboo in Dong Zhuo's heart, but since Peng Yu couldn't, then change someone else.
In this way, Li Ru set his sights on Tang Mao in Wancheng without dying, Tang Mao's team learned through Li Ru's observation that it was an embroidered pillow, as long as Dong Zhuo led the army to scare him, I am afraid that Tang Mao could only obey any conditions.
And to restore Dong Zhuo's temperament, there is no easier means than robbing others, which robber is not full of strategy? Aggressive?
As long as Dong Zhuo's greedy side is brought out through this matter, greed will inevitably invade, aggression means brutality, so Dong Zhuo will inevitably bloom again with his heroic spirit.
Therefore, Li Ru told Dong Zhuo that Xuchang was short of grain, and Wancheng had a lot of grain and grass, so Dong Zhuo led the army to Wancheng to "borrow grain"!
Dong Zhuo didn't want to go, but he couldn't resist the repeated requests of Li Ru and his subordinates, and finally Dong Zhuo couldn't bear it anymore and led the army to Wancheng to borrow grain.
……
Li Runai is the No. 2 person in Dong Jun, and he naturally knows everything about Xuchang after coming to Xuchang for so many days, and Dong Zhuo has done almost nothing since he came to Xuchang, just staying in the house every day to have fun.
And after he came to Xuchang, he only did one thing out of the ordinary, and now Peng Yu actually led a large army to come, it must be for this matter, so Li Ru knew it in his heart.
