Chapter 141

Within half a month, the Chang'an army took several cities in a row and completely controlled the land of Guanzhong.

At the same time, according to the letter of the valley pass, looking at Luoyang City from afar. And the Xiliang army in Luoyang City completely woke up and immediately panicked.

To the east were the Kwantung princes, and at the first time Dong Zhuo died. Lu Bu and the army of Bingzhou retreated to Yuzhou and no longer fought with Yuan Shao. The Xiliang Army originally had irreconcilable contradictions with the Bingzhou Army, and Lu Bu was a tiger, so they didn't dare to provoke it.

"Xiangguo is gone, what should I do? To the east is Lu Bu's jackals, and behind us is the Chang'an army, we are trapped in Luoyang, and sooner or later the army will be defeated and die. "In the Xiliang army, Niu Fu and Li Ru are respected. The two are not only Dong Zhuo's sons-in-law, but more importantly, the elite of Xiliang is now in the hands of Niu Fu, and Li Ru is the chief think tank of Xiliang.

Li Ru was also panicked about Dong Zhuo's sudden departure. But after the panic, he understood that now must be the time to make a decision, and Niu Fu now wanted to control the one left by Dong Zhuo. But he is even more unbearable than Dong Zhuo, if he is respected by Niu Fu, Xiliang Jun will die faster.

Although he is also Dong Zhuo's son-in-law, he has no military power in his hands. Thinking of the note given to him by Zhang Guiyi in Chang'an, it is difficult to really go to Zhang Guiyi.

It's just that although Zhang Guiyi now controls Guanzhong, he doesn't have much power in his hands. Thinking of this, Li Ru's eyes suddenly lit up, yes, since Zhang Guiyi's strength is insufficient, then he will take refuge with Xiliang Warriors, which not only highlights his own importance, but also makes up for Zhang Guiyi's shortcomings.

Li Ru has already made a decision, so naturally he will not sue Niu Fu. Whatever Niu Fu says, Li Ru should do whatever he wants, looking like Niu Fu is the main one. Niu Fu was naturally overjoyed, thinking that this Li Ru was taking refuge in himself. If Li Ru is willing to take refuge in himself, then it will not be a problem for the two of them to control the Xiliang Army.

After leaving, Li Ru began to actively plan which Xiliang soldiers were worth winning over and could be trusted.

In Chang'an City, Zhang Lie said to Guo Jia with some annoyance: "What should I do now!" ”

"Gui 10,000 must not provoke the Xiliang Army, the Xiliang Army at this time is like a beast in a cage, once our army opens the cage door, the beast will inevitably attack our army with all its might. Although the Xiliang Army is now leaderless, its combat power is still unique in the world. At this time, we can only wait, there are many internal contradictions in the Xiliang Army, none of us will provoke him, and when his internal contradictions break out, he will be in chaos, and then it will be time for me to clean up the mess. After Guo Jia finished speaking, he stared at Zhang Guiyi seriously.

At this time, Zhang Lie suddenly spoke: "If Niu Fu leads the army to surrender, can Feng Xiao be sure to stabilize the situation?" ”

Guo Jia was shocked and said: "There is a good way to return to one, can you persuade Niu Fu?" ”

"Not really, but I can control him. In fact, Dong Zhuo had been accused by me before, otherwise I would have asked him to agree, originally I thought that Dong Zhuo was defeated by the Kwantung princes and fled west to Chang'an, so that I could easily control the situation. Unexpectedly, in order to get rid of the control, Dong Zhuo actually attacked the Kwantung princes first. Now I'm even playing myself to death, making my plan fail. Zhang Lie was very helpless, he had planned well, Dong Zhuo controlled the court after all, and he controlled Dong Zhuo. As long as Dong Zhuo was defeated, he came to Chang'an in a hurry. When the time comes, it will be the time for him to rise, and he will have the emperor in his hands and the son of heaven to conquer the ministers. At the right time, he directly abolished the emperor and let him give his Zen position to himself, so that the emperor's stone would be in hand.

Now it's all messed up!

Zhang Lie was troubled, and Guo Jia was even more chaotic. What kind of method did Zhang Lie use to control Dong Zhuo, which is also terrifying. Now it is said that it is too easy to control a person. Guo Jia couldn't help but feel a little numb in his scalp, whether he was also accused by Zhang Lie.

A few days later, in Luoyang City, Niu Fu directly found Li Ru and said, "Wen You, do you think that if I am the lord of Xiliang, will Xiliang still have a future?" You tell you the truth, how am I compared to Xiangguo? ”

Li Ru was shocked, and couldn't figure out why Niu Fu asked like this. It wasn't clear if he was testing himself, or if he had discovered his plan.

"Wen You, don't panic, Xiangguo will go first, and now only the two of us in the Xiliang Army can make up their minds. What do you have to say! ”

"Xiangguo has world-class meritorious achievements, and one person is enough to suppress the Xiliang powerhouse!" After Li Ru finished speaking, he stopped talking. He is telling the truth, don't look at Niu Fu now seems to be the head of the generals of Xiliang, in fact, there are too many people who disagree with him. thinks that apart from Dong Zhuo's son-in-law, Niu Fu has nothing else to do, neither great merit nor too outstanding ability.

"Got it!" Niu Fu is not stupid, plus what happened at night, he sighed. said: "Wen You, what do you think of Zhang Guiyi?" ”

"I don't know much, but I think he can control the land of Guanzhong in a short period of time, and govern Guanzhong in an orderly manner, it shouldn't be bad!" Li Ruzhen didn't know what he meant, what did Zhang Lie do, did he really find something.

"Okay, I got it. Wen You, I'm going to lead the Xiliang Army to join Zhang Guiyi, do you think it's feasible? ”

"He contacted you?" Li Ru asked dumbfounded.

Niu Fu smiled bitterly and nodded, not to mention the contact, he also planted a poison on him, and when the pain started, he couldn't wait to die directly. He knew that he was finished, because he had already checked with all the imperial doctors before, and found no problems. It is said that he is in excellent health and has not been poisoned at all.

Besides, he is also a military general, and he can also experience it if he is not poisoned. Even when the poison is on, he can't detect the poison, but he itches all over his body, and he wants to scratch the skin.

"Actually, he contacted me too!" Li Ru didn't say it, he couldn't say that he had been planning to surrender in the past few days.

Niu Fu suddenly felt like a brother in distress, and he thought that Li Ru had also been poisoned.

"Well, with the combined efforts of you and me, it is enough to control the Xiliang army, we will lead the army to Zhang Guiyi to see how he will settle us!" Niu Fu shouted, his eyes full of determination.

In May of the second year of the first peace, the Xiliang Army, which had been chaotic for two months, was completely stabilized. It's just that the new Lord of Xiliang is jaw-dropping, Chang'an Zhangfu Yin.

At the same time, Zhang Lie announced that he would move the capital to Chang'an and take the prime minister himself. At the same time, Huang Zhong was made a lieutenant general, stationed in Chang'an, and governed the Tiger Pass.

With Li Wei as the general of the expedition to the west, he was stationed in the Guannei and looked at Hanzhong, and Wei Xu continued to garrison Tongguan as the general of Jianwei.

Zhang Lie was a mere humble family, and after Dong Zhuo, he was another chaotic minister, which made the Kwantung princes even more jealous. Dong Zhuo's ascension to the throne is still excusable, after all, he has been famous for decades, and he has already exposed his ambitions. But Zhang Lie doesn't count any green onion, something that pops out of the stone, and he dares to mess up.

As a result, the princes of the Eighteenth Route of Kanto were forming an alliance to discuss Zhang, among which Yuzhou Lu Bu was impressively listed, and he was a pioneer! .
