Chapter 096: The True Colors of the Hero (2)

It didn't take long for an emaciated figure to suddenly appear at the gate of the palace, Dong Zhuo happened to meet someone at this moment, Dong Zhuo stretched out his right hand and grabbed the other party's wrist, and complained as he walked back: "Wen You, how many times have I told you, don't always stick to these red tape with me." ”

The person who came was Li Ru and Li Wenyou, who Dong Zhuo relied on the most, and he was thin and thin next to Dong Zhuo, like a little chicken, half-dragged to the couch.

Li Ru smiled bitterly and said, "Lord, the ceremony must not be abolished." ”

"Fuck it! Hahaha, come on, come on, tell me what you have gained this time? Dong Zhuo personally poured a glass of wine for Li Ru, and then reclined comfortably on the couch again.

Li Ru took the wine and drank it all, and then simply picked up the wine jug and drank it directly several times, obviously running all the way and never even resting. After taking a breath a little, he arched his hand and said excitedly: "Lord, this time it is really fruitful." ”

"Oh? Let's hear about it. ”

This time, his subordinates led Fan Chou and Li Meng back to Liangzhou. According to the will of the lord, Xiliang was promised to Han Sui, and at the same time the contradiction between him and Ma Teng was expanded, and the Ma clan was wiped out except for Ma Teng and more than a dozen others. Now Liangzhou is back under the rule of our army. Although Han Sui had some ability, he lost the support of Ma Teng, coupled with the defense of the two generals Fan Chou and Li Meng, he could only obediently guard Xiliang for our army. ”

This incident was expected, so Dong Zhuo didn't show any special joy, he was waiting for Li Ru's next words.

Sure enough, Li Ru paused and said: "This time, I brought back more than 50,000 healthy horses from Liangzhou, and at the same time, Han Sui also sent his general Yan Xing to help our army to show his sincerity." ”

"Yan Xing? This person has never heard of it, Wen You values it so much, could it be something extraordinary? Dong Zhuo asked suspiciously.

Li Ru said proudly: "Exactly, although this son is young, he has made a great name in Jincheng in recent years, and even the entire Xiliang has begun to praise his prestige, and Ma Chao of the Ma Teng family has a faint posture of keeping pace with him. And I think this son is quite strategic, so the lower official asked Han Sui to send him to Chang'an. ”

Dong Zhuo's two favorite things in his life are to collect beauties and brave generals in the world, especially the latter, which is far more important to Dong Zhuo than the former.

Li Ru waited for Dong Zhuo to calm down a little and continued: "Lord, Xu Rong and other generals have already been subordinated, Chang'an is already an iron bucket at this time, and the lord should rest assured. ”

Dong Zhuo nodded and sighed: "With Wenyou here, the old man has saved a lot of heart." ”

Li Ru didn't answer, but looked at Dong Zhuo seriously, and after thinking about it, he still asked, "Lord, do you really want to be like this?" ”

Dong Zhuo didn't answer, but asked, "Wen You, have you ever regretted it?" ”

Shaking his head, Li Ru said firmly: "Swearing to follow the lord to the death is a vow I made, and we will carry it out for the rest of our lives." ”

Dong Zhuo's eyes were full of relief and satisfaction, it was hard to imagine that Dong Zhuo, who was full of evil and heinous, would have these looks in his eyes peacefully, and he slowly spoke: "The Han family is declining, even if I am ambitious, I can't help the building to fall." Since he has already been infamy, why not do it more thoroughly, completely destroy this corrupt court, and forge a new dynasty for the world. I was decadent and confused before, and it was because I couldn't see any hope, but now, there is hope, and although I can't be sure who can turn the tide, there is hope. ”

"Lord, hey, ——!" Li Ru sighed heavily, after the last time the coalition forces returned from scattering, with the courage of the Xiliang Iron Cavalry, Dong Zhuo could wait for the opportunity to eliminate a few more princes, after all, although Dong Zhuo's army had shrunk the defense line at that time, its strength had not been reduced, but Dong Zhuo stubbornly rejected this proposal.

This once made Li Ru and Xu Rong, who were originally excited to see Dong Zhuo cheer up, couldn't figure their heads, until a secret discussion between the three of them, Xu Rong couldn't help but question, and Dong Zhuo revealed his thoughts and thoughts.

It turned out that although Dong Zhuo, who had regained his former heroic spirit, he profoundly understood that what he had done before had made the Xiliang Legion a representative of crime and brutality in the eyes of the people of the world, and at the same time lost the hearts of the people, it also made this tiger and wolf army really become a bandit army that did all kinds of evil, either actively or passively, and where there was still a trace of the posture of the official army.

There is a way to go from thrift to luxury, from luxury to thrift, it is difficult to get used to the tyranny of the army, from top to bottom is full of cancer, even if it is really to be corrected, it is definitely not an easy thing, rather than this, it is better to leave more seeds and space for the heroes of the world to grow. And he will simply be a bad guy to the end, and he will be the touchstone and stepping stone of the king of the new era.

Li Ru knew that Dong Zhuo's decisions would not be changed, and he also knew and understood Dong Zhuo's mentality at this time, once he set foot on some roads, he could not turn back, and some mistakes could never be forgiven once they were committed. Everything in the world is not broken or established, and if you want to open a new era, you must break the old dynasty. These people can be said to love and hate the Han Dynasty very much, but at this moment in the Han Dynasty, they are all sinful people, and all they can do now is to continue on this road as Dong Zhuo said, push the wheel of history, and sharpen new heroes.

"Wen You, now that the alliance has been broken and the rear of our army has been stabilized, what do you think should happen next?" Dong Zhuo broke the silence and asked.

Li Ru said without thinking: "Our army is now full of soldiers and food, and there are countless brave generals, the most important thing is that the Han Dynasty is in the hands of today, even if our army has now become the target of the public, but there is no force in the world that can compete with our army." ”

Dong Zhuomo stroked his stubby beard under his chin and replied, "Well, that's true." In your opinion, if our army maintains the status quo, when will that man appear? ”

Li Ru sighed in his heart: My father-in-law really made up his mind, even so, I, Li Ru, gave up this body and accompanied you vigorously for the rest of my life. "Lord Qi, at least five years or ten years, there will definitely be forces that are evenly matched with our army. But ......"

"But it's too long, since we do it, let's do it vigorously, okay?"

"The lord is wise!" Li Ru stood up, lightly twisted his long beard under his chin, paced back and forth for a few steps, and after thinking for a while, he continued to speak: "Now the three people of the southern royal family Liu Biao, Liu Yan, and Liu Miao are not worried, and Liu Jingsheng, who is the head of the Eight Horses, may be commendable when he is young, but now he is just a dog that guards the success, and the only one who can be worried is that Jingzhou is rich and talented; Liu Yan of Yizhou was even more faintly self-reliant, and released Zhang Lu to establish the Wudou Rice Sect in Hanzhong, pretending to be a troublemaker, but in fact, it was just to cover up people's eyes; Besides, Yangzhou Mu Liu Miao is even more cowardly and incompetent, and he is unbearable. Therefore, it is asserted that these three people are not a cause for concern. ”

After a pause, Li Ru continued: "Now the world is so big, except for the lord, there are only a few people who can be called heroes, and the leader is Lu Bu of Bingzhou, this person has a mixed reputation, but his courage is not dissatisfied, and there are many young generations of civil and military generals to assist, now the wings are full, what is missing is only time; The two Jiangdong Sun Wentai, brave, although defeated by General Hua that day, but before that many battles and victories are really dazzling, this person returned to Yangzhou, but he will definitely not be a person who has lived under the people for a long time, aiming to wait for the opportunity to soar into the sky; The three Cao Mengde, this person can bend and stretch, is known for his resourcefulness, and is known as a virtuous person. ”

Dong Zhuo nodded, and after noticing that Li Ru was not continuing to explain, he opened his mouth and added: "There is also that Bohai Yuan Shao, who is heroic and righteous, and the name of the fourth and third princes has also recruited many civil and military generals for him, although he is now in a corner, his future achievements are limitless." ”

"Haha." As soon as Dong Zhuo's words fell, he was interrupted by Li Ru's laughter: "That Yuan Benchu is indeed as the lord said, but after the previous battle, Wen You dares to assert that this person is no more than Erer. ”

"Oh? Why did Wen You say this? In fact, in Dong Zhuo's heart, in addition to Lu Bu, the most important thing is Yuan Shao, after all, the golden sign of the descendants of the Yuan family of the fourth and third princes is too bluffing, and Yuan Shao also has some personal charm, and has recruited many talents around him, which makes Dong Zhuo very jealous.

"Yuan Shao has a lot of advantages, the fourth world and the third duke, the weak crown ascended to the dynasty, the fame is spread all over the world, he treats people generously, he is heroic and righteous, and many heroes and heroes flock to him. After the previous battle, he asserted that this person was scheming, rejoicing, and timid, or he could become a hero for a while, but he would be destroyed in an instant. Li Ru said with disdain.

Dong Zhuo nodded and said, "The facts are exactly as Wen You said. At present, Lu Bu's foundation is solid, but Cao Cao and Sun Jian are like rootless duckweed at the moment. How can the two of them rise quickly? I don't want to wait for him for ten or eight years, my old bones may not be able to wait that long. ”

Li Ru's heart trembled slightly, and after a slight groan, he spoke: "Lord, the lower officials have a plan. ”

"Oh? Come on. ”

"Now that the emperor is in hand, the lord can give Sun Jian Lujiang Taishou, appoint Cao Cao as the prime minister of Jinan, appoint Lu Bu as the pastor of Youzhou, appoint Yuan Shao as the assassin of Jizhou, appoint Yuan Shu as the Taishou of Runan, and appoint Ma Teng as the ...... of the assassin of Bingzhou"

Dong Zhuo listened carefully to Li Ru's words, and after thinking about it, he suddenly smiled, "Clever plan, really a wonderful plan." Once such appointments are issued, the world will be in turmoil, and it will soon be clear whether it is a hero in troubled times, a hero or a bad seed. ”

Everyone wants to listen to a word of flattery, especially if it comes from a lord to whom they are allegiant. Li Ru felt extremely useful, but he still understood his duty, and then added: "But this trick alone is not interesting, and then we can ...... it."

After the tea, Dong Zhuo's hearty laughter came from the brightly lit palace: "Hahahahaha, Wenyou, Wenyou, you are really my son's room, hahaha......" Baidu read the latest chapter of "Lu Bujie's Literature of the Three Kingdoms" for free for the first time.
