The book is picked up again.

After hesitating for a while, Xu Rong gritted his teeth and said loudly: "Forgive the hussar general, the general can't tell the hussar general what the lord ordered!" ”

Hearing this, Li Zhi pretended to be angry, pulled down his face, and said gloomily: "What if Ben Hou has to know?!" ”

When Xu Rong heard this, he shook his head, and said with a firm face: "Please forgive the hussar general, the last general will not say it even if he dies!" ”

With that, he put his hands behind his back and quietly gestured to his men to get ready.

In his opinion, what he said just now had offended Li Zhi, and Li Zhi would definitely be furious.

Moreover, Li Zhi and his lord are enemies, so he thinks that after hearing his answer, Li Zhi will definitely attack with his army.

However, things always come unexpected......

"Haha......"

After Li Zhi heard Xu Rong's words, not only did he not get angry, but laughed out loud.

Seeing this, Xu Rong frowned, and asked puzzledly, "Why is the hussar general laughing?" ”

When Li Zhiyan heard this, he looked at Xu Rong with a puzzled face, and said while laughing: "I'm sorry, General Xu, Ben Hou just played a joke with you just now." ”

When Xu Rong heard this, his brows furrowed even deeper, and he asked with puzzlement: "Doesn't the hussar general want to know why the last general is here?" ”

Hearing Xu Rong's inquiry, Li Zhi stopped laughing and said with disdain: "What is it difficult to guess the purpose of your coming here?"

Isn't the reason why you are here to defend Ben Hou's backhand? ”

After finishing speaking, he glanced at Xu Rong with disdain.

After Xu Rong heard Li Zhi's words, his face instantly became ugly.

He didn't expect that Li Zhi could guess his purpose just by guessing.

"What does the hussar general want to do with the last general?" Xu Rong looked at Li Zhi with a wary face and asked.

After Li Zhiyan shook his head, he said with a smile: "You don't have to be too guarded against Ben Hou, Ben Hou didn't plan to help you."

Now, Ben Hou still has a place to use your lord, so Ben Hou will not weaken his strength, you take your people, go back immediately. ”

Originally, Li Zhi thought that if he said this, Xu Rong would definitely be as good as a stream.

However, he didn't expect that Xu Rong's character turned out to be very stubborn.

After hearing Li Zhi's words, Xu Rong not only did not return with his troops, but shook his head firmly.

He pointed to the barracks behind him and said loudly: "The hussar general has already guessed the purpose of the last general, then he should know that the lord gave the last general a death order, let the last general block the northern army camp, and prevent the northern army from coming out!"

Therefore, until the lord does not revoke this order, the last general will never retreat! ”

After Li Zhi heard Xu Rong's words, he shook his head, patted his forehead, and said helplessly, "Don't you know that Benhou and your lord are no longer enemies?"

Since Benhou and your lord are no longer enemies, then the orders you received have been nullified, so why are you so stubborn?

Go back, Ben Hou doesn't want to be difficult for you. ”

However, Xu Rong's stubbornness is beyond Li Zhi's imagination.

After hearing Li Zhi's words, he shook his head firmly and did not speak.

Seeing this, Li Zhi sighed, raised his hand to the army behind him, and said: "Since you don't know what to do, then don't blame Ben Hou for being ruthless, listen to my military orders......"

"Wait! Hussar General and slow down! Just as Li Zhi was giving the order, an eager voice came from a distance.

After Li Zhi heard this voice, he put down his hand, turned his head, and looked at the place where the voice came from.

I saw Li Ru running towards this side in a hurry, and while running, he shouted loudly: "Xu Rong, don't clash with the hussar general, quickly retreat!" ”

When Xu Rong heard this, he didn't dare to slack off, and the army, which was originally in a defensive formation, instantly turned into a marching state under his command.

After Xu Rong's change of formation was completed, Li Ru finally came to the place where the two armies intersected.

Then, he didn't have time to wipe the sweat from his forehead, panted and saluted Li Zhi, and said respectfully: "Hussar general, don't be angry.

Xu Rong didn't mean to offend the hussar general, but he was born with a dead brain, acting straightforwardly and not knowing how to be flexible.

If there is any offense, please also ask the hussar general to be magnanimous and forgive him. ”

After finishing speaking, he saluted Li Zhi again.

The reason why Li Ru made such low repent to Li Zhi was because at this time, Dong Zhuo had reached a very dangerous situation.

Dong Zhuo was unable to murder Li Zhi, and was backhanded by Li Zhi, which caused Dong Zhuo to break his muscles and bones and lose tens of thousands of soldiers and horses.

At this time, Dong Zhuo only had seventy or eighty thousand soldiers and horses in his hands, even if it was more than Ding Yuan, it was not much.

And after Ding Yuan enters Beijing, he will definitely deal with Dong Zhuo, and Li Ru can foresee that in the future, his lord will be very sad.

Therefore, Li Ru wanted to win over all the forces that could be won over to deal with Ding Yuan's attack.

Of course, it doesn't mean that Dong Zhuo can't deal with Ding Yuan, but that Dong Zhuo's other party can't lose both sides with Ding Yuan at all.

Once Dong Zhuo and Ding Yuan are both defeated, the various forces in Beijing will brutally divide Dong Zhuo.

Because, Dong Zhuo, who was seriously injured, was not the opponent of the big and small forces in Luoyang City at all.

And Dong Zhuo did not cultivate his morality in the past, and he was even more sneering at the leaders of various forces.

When Dong Zhuo was powerful, the leaders of the forces did not dare to retaliate against Dong Zhuo, so they could only let him insult him.

Once Dong Zhuo's power is damaged, the leaders of the various forces don't mind dividing up Dong Zhuo and revenge the previous insults.

Because of the above considerations, Li Rucai was so polite to Li Zhi, he wanted to win over Li Zhi and deal with Ding Yuan together.

Seeing that Li Ru was so polite, Li Zhi probably understood his plan.

After thinking for a while, he smiled and said, "Brother Li doesn't have to be so polite, please get up." ”

Hearing this, Li Ru straightened up and asked Li Zhi, "I wonder if the hussar general is interested in forming an alliance with my lord to deal with Ding Yuan together?" ”

"Hehe......" After hearing Li Ru's words, Li Zhi chuckled twice and said, "Brother Li looks down on Ding Yuan too much, right?"

He only has 50,000 or 60,000 soldiers and horses in his hands now, and he can wipe them out with General Dong alone, so why form an alliance with Benhou? ”

After Li Ru heard Li Zhi's words, he looked at Li Zhi, frowned and asked, "I don't believe that the hussar general can't see it."

Once my lord of the family makes a move against Ding Yuan, the people loyal to the royal family in the world will definitely unite to deal with my lord together.

When the time comes, my father-in-law will inevitably be in a desperate situation.

Moreover, even if the people loyal to the royal family in the world do not unite, Ding Yuan alone can make my family head hurt.

Once the power of my lord is damaged, those locust-like families will definitely rush up and eat my lord! ”

Hearing Li Ru say this, Li Zhi pursed his lips boredly and interjected: "What does this have to do with Benhou?"

Have you forgotten that at this time, we are still in a state of hostility?

In the early morning of this day, you still have to expel Benhou from Luoyang.

Moreover, it seems that Benhou's Hussar General's Mansion was still burned by you, right?

Isn't it too ridiculous for you, the culprit who burned down Benhou's mansion, to stand in front of Ben Hou and say an alliance to Ben Hou?! ”

"The hussar general's words are wrong!" After hearing Li Zhi's words, Li Ru immediately retorted loudly: "Now, my lord and the hussar general are grasshoppers on a rope.

After the defeat of my lord, their next target must be the hussar general!

Presumably, the hussar general also knows the truth of the death of cold lips and teeth, if the hussar general does not help my lord now, after my lord is destroyed, the hussar general will regret it too late! ”

After Li Zhi heard Li Ru's words, he waved his hand and said with a nonchalant face: "Ben Hou and Dong Zhuo are different!"

Ben Hou has a clear conscience!

Since coming to the capital, Ben Hou has never done anything to endanger the royal family.

Therefore, even if the people loyal to the royal family in the world unite, it is unlikely that they will be able to deal with Benhou.

Because, when the time comes, Benhou can make all the things he has done over the years public.

Ben Hou believes that among those loyal ministers, there are definitely sensible people.

When the time comes, they will definitely dissuade others from attacking Ben Hou. ”

When Li Ru heard this, he asked with a gloomy face, "The hussar general is so sure that they won't attack you?" ”

"Of course!" After Li Zhi nodded confidently, he said: "First, Ben Hou has a huge power, and if they attack Ben Hou, they are not absolutely sure.

Second, Benhou did not despise the imperial power, nor did he bully His Majesty.

There is no reason for them to risk chaos in the world and attack Ben Hou! ”

Speaking of this, Li Zhi glanced at Li Ru and asked jokingly, "I'm afraid you don't know yet, right?"

After Ding Yuan was in Beijing, he met with Ben Hou once.

And Ben Hou also told Ding Yuan everything he had done over the years.

At this time, it was unlikely that he would attack Ben Hou.

Therefore, this time Ding Yuan entered Beijing, there is only one person to deal with, and that is your head of the family, Dong Zhuo, General Dong! ”

After Li Ru heard Li Zhi's words, he was instantly stunned.

He didn't expect that Li Zhi would use a frank way to break the game.

However, Li Zhi's hand was indeed beyond his expectations.

He originally thought that it was impossible for an arrogant person like Li Zhi to accept the accusations of others, let alone explain what he had done as if he was soft and begging for mercy.

He has seen many high-ranking and powerful people, and after being misunderstood by others, they don't bother to explain at all.

Because they feel that explanation is the behavior of the weak, and the strong don't need to explain, you just need to follow his arrangement!

Li Ru didn't expect that Li Zhi would put down his face and explain the matter to the loyal ministers of the Han family.

However, Li Zhi did just that!

Li Zhi's unexpected actions made Li Ru feel surprised and desperate.

Yes, it is despair, if Li Zhi does not agree to form an alliance with them, then their chances of victory are very small.

And after Li Zhi and the Han family loyalists explained, maybe the Han family loyalists would pull Li Zhi into their group.

When the time comes, Dong Zhuo will not only have to deal with the loyal ministers of the Han family headed by Ding Yuan, but also deal with Li Zhi.

Thinking of this, Li Ru didn't even have the courage to do it, not because he was timid and cowardly, but because the gap was too big.

Looking at Li Ru, who was dejected and desperate after listening to his words, Li Zhi said to him: "Okay, everything that should be said has been said, you can let your men get out of the way now!" ”

After hearing Li Zhi's words, Li Ru instantly came back to his senses, and continued to persuade with the hope of what happened: "Hussar general, do you really believe in those so-called loyal ministers of the Han family?

There are many selfish people among them, and after you explain it to them, they will think that you are a coward!

When the time comes, those who covet the power in your hands will definitely do it to you! ”

Li Zhi shrugged his shoulders and said with a relaxed face: "Just do it, Ben Hou has long been used to it."

Over the years, how many forces have been jealous of the soldiers and horses in Ben Hou's hands and want to do something against Ben Hou, but have you seen anyone succeed?

Isn't your lord also jealous of Benhou's power? But did your father-in-law succeed? ”

Speaking of this, he sneered: "If it weren't for Ding Yuan's sudden entry into Beijing, I'm afraid that your lord would have been a prisoner of Ben Hou by now!" ”

"Alas......" Li Ru sighed with a decadent face after hearing Li Zhi's words.

Subsequently, he also gave up persuading Li Zhi again, and after shaking his head, he said weakly to Xu Rong beside him: "Withdraw the army." ”

After finishing speaking, he seemed to be dozens of years old, leaning over his body and walking slowly into the distance.

Li Zhi looked at Li Ru's departing back, and after thinking for a while, he shouted loudly at him: "Hey! Brother Li, Benhou has a priceless news here, do you want to hear it? ”

After hearing Li Zhi's shout, Li Ru instantly came to his senses.

Then, he turned around, ran to Li Zhi's side in a few steps, and after making a big salute to him, he asked eagerly, "Please also ask the hussar general to give advice." ”

He thought that Li Zhi had changed his mind and agreed to ally with them.

After Li Zhi looked at Li Ru, he said inexplicably: "Twenty thousand war horses." ”

"What?" After Li Ru heard Li Zhi's words, he asked in confusion, "What does the hussar general mean by this?" ”

"Ben Hou is saying......" Li Zhi stared at Li Ru tightly, and said word by word: "This news is worth 20,000 war horses!" ”

"This ......" Li Ru said embarrassedly after hearing Li Zhi's words: "Please forgive the hussar general, it's not that I don't want to give the hussar general 20,000 war horses, but there are only 40,000 cavalry in total under the lord's command."

If, at this critical juncture, he gave the hussar general 20,000 war horses, I am afraid that the lord's strength will be greatly damaged! ”

Speaking of this, Li Ru's eyes rolled, the topic changed, and he said: "Otherwise, I can make decisions for my lord, and after this matter, as long as my lord-in-law is still alive, I will give the general 30,000 war horses, how about it?" ”

When Li Zhi heard this, after glancing at Li Ru, he said angrily: "Not how!

You're wondering!

Do you want to use these 30,000 war horses to lure Ben Hou to help Dong Zhuo?

You're thinking too much!

Ben Hou will never interfere in this matter!

However, Ben Hou feels that he needs to be reminded that this news in Ben Hou's hands can make your family leader turn defeat into victory.

As for whether you believe it or not, that's your business.

If you believe it, in three days, Benhou will see 20,000 horses enter the northern army.

When the time comes, Ben Hou will tell you that news again, if you don't believe it, then forget it......"
