Chapter 194: Chang'an
At that time, Fengyi County Linjin County, county government.
Wang Li watched the hall full of civil ministers and military generals gather together, and his heart was indescribably happy.
Once upon a time, he just wanted to carry on the civil servant errand of the thief Cao Peng forever in Wei County. Once upon a time, I just wanted to see if I could hug Zhao Yun's thigh before the Yellow Turban Rebellion swept the world, so that I could try to survive in this turbid era.
However, by chance, Zhao Yun, who is famous in the annals of history, became his younger brother, and he became one of the heroes in the world.
People have joys and sorrows, the moon is cloudy and sunny, who can say the way of this world!
"Report!" A rush of footsteps sounded, interrupting Wang Li's contemplation, and Zhou Cang took the note from the guard's hand and handed it over.
"Lu Bu has fled, Yang Fang is dead, and Wei Xu has broken his arm!"
Lu Bu, this ungrateful thing, actually slipped away, isn't this guy not a wolf but a rabbit?
Wang Li looked at the note in surprise, he didn't doubt Zhang Liao's loyalty to him, history has proved that Zhang Liao is a man who is not afraid of death but values affection, and Gao Shun is synonymous with loyalty.
He just didn't expect that Lu Bu, who had a long halberd to overwhelm the crowd, and Lu Bu, who recognized Ah Weng as a change of court, was really a small strong man who couldn't be killed, Pu Banjin's sharp arrows, a line of falling rocks and the flood of the shallow river didn't kill him, and in the end, this guy successfully slipped out of the encirclement and interception of Zhang Liao and Gao Shun.
But it doesn't matter, if you slip away, you will slip away, Cao Mengde, I am not afraid, what is there to fear of a brave and unscrupulous slave with three surnames?
"Fengxiao, which general is attacking Xinfeng?" Wang Li turned his head to look at Guo Jia.
Guo Jia suddenly understood: "General Xu Nanyi, but then Lu Bu escaped from the encirclement and went to the direction of Xinfeng?" β
Wang Li nodded, his heart ignited boundless battle intent, his hands slapped on the desk, Huo Ran got up and shouted: "Fengxiao's ambush plan on all sides has repeatedly achieved miraculous feats, and the two Xiahou Yuan brothers have escaped on the Cao army's side, and there are only more than a thousand remnants left in the more than 10,000 army.
On LΓΌ Bu's side, Yang Fang was killed, Wei Xu broke his arm, and nine of the 20,000 troops had stopped, and the remaining defeated soldiers were fleeing with LΓΌ Bu in the direction of Xinfeng to Chang'an, and the two generals Zhang Liao and Gao Shun were in pursuit.
Now Cao Cao has retired from Guanzhong, the layout is Yanxu, and only Lu Bu and Li and others are left in Chang'an. The blacksmith passed on his skills to strike the iron while it was hot, and we must not give Lu Bu a chance to breathe. The congregation will obey the order! β
"No!" Everyone stood up with their fists in unison.
"Order: Di listened to the battalion flying pigeon to pass the book to Luoyang, Cao Cao was defeated and fled, Hanoi has been issued for me, Mao is the Taishou of Hanoi County, and Xu Shi, the former Xiaopingjin guard, is the captain of Hanoi. Urgently transferred Huangfu Song and Xun Yu Starry Night to enter the customs.
Order: Li Meng is the governor of Feng Yi County, Tian Feng temporarily takes the post of Feng Yi County Taishou, and the rest of Guo Jia, Xi Zhong, Zhang, Xu Huang, and Zhou Cang can go to Xinfeng with me, and join Zhang Liao, Gao Shun and Xu Rong to go to Chang'an!
Order: Listen to the camp flying pigeon to pass the book Zilong, and order it and Ma Tengbu to be sure to hunt Chang'an with us tomorrow evening, and there must be no mistake! β
"No!"
β¦β¦
Lu Bu lay tightly on the back of the red rabbit horse, his heart was like dripping blood, his mouth was wide open and he was panting, letting the cold air pour into his lungs one by one, only in this way could he stay awake.
He knew that he had been defeated, but he didn't expect to lose so completely and so embarrassingly.
Pubanjin, they have formed a situation of encirclement, and even "attacked" in front of Wang Li's tent, but before they could come and face Wang Li, they were beaten by Wang Li and fled.
At the fork in the road, they had just rested, and they heard the shouts of "Zhang and Xu Huang are here" and the dense drum horns, but they didn't even touch the corners of Zhang and Xu Huang's clothes.
When they arrived at the first line of heaven and the shallow river, they did not see a single general under Wang Li's command, but only hundreds of strong men, and their enemies also changed from Wang Li and Wang Li's "generals" to rolling boulders and turbulent rivers.
A few boulders stood in their way, but the endless flood engulfed many of his warriors.
It wasn't until the mouth of the Heavenly Canyon that they finally met Wang Li's generals, Zhang Liao and Gao Shun.
Both of them are his old friends, and the old people are waiting for him. But it's a pity that these two old people greeted him not with smiling faces, but with sharp swords. Yang Fang died because of this, and Wei Xu became a wasted person from then on.
What's even more odious is that these two old people chased after each other all the way, and Xinfeng County didn't know if it was last night or this morning, but the city changed the king's flag, and another old man, Xu Nanyi, made him taste homeless, and the rain of arrows and the flag planted on the head of the city represented the attitude of the old man.
Lu Bu looked back at the more than 20,000 people who were left at the time of the expedition, and only 2,000 people remained, and tears almost rolled out: Wang Li of Donkey Day, did Lao Tzu kill your Lao Tzu or steal your mother-in-law in his last life, and he actually wanted to do this to me, don't you know that Lao Tzu is your brother-in-law!
Tossing along the way, frightened all the way, Lu Bu finally returned to Chang'an City in the evening, looked at Li Ru who came to greet him, opened his mouth, and turned a thousand words into one sentence: "Sir, let's take Your Majesty to Yanzhou tomorrow!" β
The corners of Li Ru's mouth were tilted, his eyes were distracted, as if he was demented, the scene in front of him made him almost lose his memory instantly, if it weren't for seeing Lu Bu's iconic Fang Tian painting halberd and red rabbit BMW, he even thought that he had entered the slums of Xishi, and there were only more than 2,000 Xiliang warriors in iron helmets and silver armor left.
It really confirms the old saying: If you are not afraid of a god-like opponent, you are afraid of a pig-like teammate. The whole 20,000 Xiliang troops said that if they didn't, they would be gone, especially if it was 20,000 pigs lined up, Wang Li would have to kill them all night!
After being stunned for a long time, Li Ru reacted, and the corners of his mouth trembled slightly: "General, you said that you would go to Yanzhou tomorrow?" β
Seeing Lu Bu's decadent nod, Li Ru was stunned, he had already seen the tragic situation of the Lu family's army, and he also saw that there was one less Yang Fang in the team, and even one more guy with one arm in the team. But he never thought of what Lu Bu and the others had experienced, and he couldn't figure out why the arrogant Lu Bu suddenly became downcast and timid.
"Just like that?"
"If you don't go like this, are you still waiting for Wang Liba to carry the sedan chair?"
"General, I'm not discussing with you the way to go to Yanzhou, but I want to tell you that you can't go yet. With your current state, do you think you can outrun Wang Li's army? Li Ru has recovered from the shock.
Can't go yet? Lu Bu was stunned when he heard this, what about a generation of strategists, don't you know that the military situation is like fire? Feelings: It's not you who is being chased?
Glancing at Li Ru, Lu Bu's face also had a little coldness: "No matter whether you can run through or not, you can't stay and wait for death, has Mr. forgotten that your name is still on the blacklist of the Luoyang Imperial Court?" β
Li Ru smiled bitterly, shook his head and said: "If you want to do a good job, you must first sharpen your tools, general, the same is true for marching and fighting, the so-called three armies have not moved grain and grass first.
The general is brave and can run hundreds of miles in a row, but what about the soldiers and horses under his command? How could they accompany the general to Yanzhou if they were not well rested? You can't let them go up to the mountains to hunt without dry food with them, right? And Your Majesty, does the general plan to let His Majesty Luan drive the way? β
"But... Wang Li's army will soon besiege Chang'an! Lu Bu sighed and shook his head.
Li Ru accompanied Lu Bu into the Jingzhao Yin Mansion and continued to admonish: "General, Chang'an City is a century-old ancient capital, the city is strong and easy to defend and difficult to attack, and the 100,000 households in the city have enough money and food, even if they hold on for a few months, it is not difficult, why should the general worry?"
Wang Li's soldiers and horses defeated Cao's army first, and then defeated our army, although the soldiers were unstoppable, but it was fighting under Wang Li's nose, and we just fell for Wang Li's treacherous scheme. If it is a dignified confrontation under Chang'an City, with the power of the general, the courage of my Xiliang soldiers, it is unknown who will kill the deer? β
Everyone was tickling through their boots, but Li Ru's words were as if he had taken off Lu Bu's boots and tickled him, talking about Lu Bu's itch.
Lu Bu thought for a while and nodded and said: "Mr. is very right, if it is under Chang'an City, Lu is not afraid, but Wang Li has ten fierce generals and tens of thousands of elite soldiers, and I am afraid that relying on Lu alone is still not enough!" β
"Hehe, the general can rest assured, we are not alone!"
"We're not alone, so who else do you lift? How did I not know? β
Li Ru smiled: "The authorities are fascinated, the bystanders are Qing, general, do you remember Li Zhiran in Tianshui, Han Wenyue in Jincheng and Ma Shoucheng in Wuwei?" Even Dong Cheng and Fu Wan in Chang'an City? β
Lu Bu was stunned when he heard this, sat down at the table of the government office, took a bottle of wine, drank it bitterly, poured another bottle of wine and handed it to Li Ru: "Sir, didn't we agree to go straight out of Wuguan and Yanzhou before?" Sir, are you planning to take root in Chang'an? β
"It's not that you don't go, but that you can't wait for time in Chang'an." Li Ru took the wine bottle and shook his head and smiled bitterly, "The current situation is also fate!" General, there are unforeseen circumstances in the sky, and people have good and bad luck, how can they not change and generalize about all changes.
The king of Chu is mighty and brave, and Chu Ge is surrounded by the Wujiang River, and the king of Han is weak and dark, and the Chencang River and mountains are thousands of miles. Feng Tang has the ambition of Anbang Lingyun to go to Lao Fangdi. Li Guang has the power to shoot tigers and kill Jiao, and it is difficult to seal it for life. Confucius was trapped in Chen Bang, and Taigong was fishing in Weishui, both of which were just the current situation.
When the general was in charge of Chang'an, and King Cao was tied in Guanzhong, we could go calmly. And now, Cao Cao fled, and the remnants were driven to Wuguan; Wang Li is dominant, and the male soldiers are like fingers. The general is in a new defeat again, and the ordnance has not yet been prepared, how can Wang Li allow us to leave easily? β
"So, we need to join forces with Li Zhiran, Han Wenyue and others to temporarily guard Chang'an?"
"Yes, exactly. Li Zhiran, Han Wenyue and Ma Shoucheng can become the overlords in this troubled era, and they must also understand the Taoist ideals of 'auxiliary cars depend on each other, lips and teeth are cold' and 'people do not hurt the tiger, and the tiger harms people's hearts'. A hero and three gangs, why don't the general write a letter to them and ask them to attack Wang Li together? β
Lu Bu perked up a little and nodded: "This matter is free for Lu to send someone to do it, but Mr. Shicai also said that His Majesty is not suitable for Luan to drive on the road, and what about Dong Cheng and the matter of the alliance?" β
"But please rest assured, Li Mou went to the palace to talk to His Majesty!" Li Ru stroked his beard and smiled, drank the wine in his hand and turned to leave.
