Above the lobby of Dong Zhuo's mansion, the lights were bright, and the servants and maids came in and out, serving all kinds of dishes like water. Pen fun and pavilion www.biquge.info

Dong Zhuo didn't look like a former general of the court, holding a silver knife, grabbing a half-baked leg of lamb and cutting it, he didn't care if he was greasy with his hands, he touched his beard, and by the way, he rubbed his hands on the buttocks of the maid who served the dishes, leaving a few obvious handprints.

Dong Zhuo sent a large piece of ruby red mutton forked on a small knife to his mouth, enjoying the deliciousness of the lamb juice bursting between his lips and teeth, he was very satisfied, raised a jue of wine and signaled to the left and right, and poured it directly into his mouth with a grunt, without the slightest twist and pinch of the literati, looking full of pride.

Dong Zhuo did this, which made Wu Kuang, Wu Zizhu, Zhang Zhang, and Zhang Yuande, who were sitting on the right side of the next head, relax a lot. Both of them were military generals, and they did feel cumbersome and had to do the etiquette of the literati, and they originally expected that Dong Zhuogui would be the former general of Xiliang Assassin History, and he must pay attention to etiquette, but he didn't expect that Dong Zhuo at this moment was as unkempt as a martial artist in the army, and he had some cordial feelings unconsciously.

Li Ru sat on the left side, of course, as his status as a scribe, he did not directly cut the mutton, but let the maid cut it and then serve it, and the eating method was also a lot, and he took the chopsticks and chopsticks to eat for a while, it didn't matter what he ate, what he wanted to eat was the people.

Wu Kuang, Wu Zizhu, Zhang Zhang, and Zhang Yuande are the two generals of the great general He Jin, it can be said that the general He Jin died unexpectedly, and the soldiers under his hands who originally belonged to the general He Jin are a little masterless, Wu Kuang and Zhang Zhang are also a little overwhelmed and feel a little confused about the future.

Dong Zhuo's foundation is still very thick, and there are 100,000 people who can be directly commanded under his hands, but this time he entered Beijing, he didn't bring many soldiers and horses, and it was not convenient to bring more, after all, he had just received a secret edict from the general He Jin at that time. , so it's just that Kankan brought three thousand Xiliang army horsemen.

Now that he has entered the capital Luoyang, 3,000 men and horses are completely like a drop in the bucket, and it is already overstretched to control the north and south palaces of the capital plus the city gate, although the order to transfer troops again has been issued, but it is easy to be taken advantage of during the gap and weakness of this force, therefore, Li Ru has set his eyes on the part of the soldiers and horses that originally belonged to He Jin.

When the wine was half-drunk, Li Ruchao gestured slightly to Dong Min, who was sitting with him. Dong Min understood, raised the wine jue and toasted Dong Zhuo with a glass of wine, and said: "General Mingjian, there are many vacancies in the eighth lieutenant of the West Garden this time, and there are many corpse meal vegetarians, please ask the general to plan for the imperial court, and rectification is imminent!" ”

Dong Zhuo touched his shiny beard, nodded and said: "When the first emperor was in power, he once said to me that the eighth captain of the West Garden was a new soldier of the new law, and the first emperor gave high hopes, but now it seems that alas-"

Li Ru put down the chopsticks and said, "Soldiers and generals, how can someone who does not know the soldiers have the right to control the order?" The general needs to re-select some people who know the army to unify it, according to the opinion of the lower officials, Zizhu and Yuande have a good way to command the army, and the general may wish to consider one or two. "Okay, that's all I have to say, I will understand what I should understand.

Sure enough, Wu Kuang and Zhang Zhang glanced at each other and immediately understood what it meant.

Zhang Zhang hurriedly stood up, bowed down from the table, and said to Dong Zhuo: "Dare to die for the general!" ”

With that, Wu Kuang also left the table and bowed, saying the same thing.

Dong Zhuo laughed heartily, also stood up, strode in front of Wu Kuang and Zhang Zhang, helped the two of them up, asked the maid to serve the wine, took it and handed it to Wu Kuang and Zhang Zhang, drank it all, and then said to Dong Min: "Shu Ying, tomorrow you will bring ten cows, fifty sheep, and 100 quintals of wine to comfort Lao Zizhu and Yuande sergeant!" ”

Before Wu Kuang and Zhang Zhang could react, Dong Zhuo instructed Li Ru again: "Zizhu and Yuande are training outside all the year round, and it is difficult for the old and young in the family to take care of them. ”

Wu Kuang and Zhang Zhang hurriedly thanked them again, and this time they were obviously more sincere and grateful.

"Since it's a family, why thank it!" Dong Zhuo waved his hand and said very heroically, "Come on, and sing and dance!" Zizhu, Yuande, this time the dancing girl is good-looking, if you are interested, you might as well choose one or two people to comfort the loneliness, hahahaha......"

Li Ru smiled, picked up a piece of lamb, looked at Wu Kuang and Zhang Zhang's grateful looks, and nodded.

******************

At this moment, Bao Xin and Yuan Shao were also drinking, but these two people didn't have as much pomp as Dong Zhuo when they drank, but in Bao Xin's backyard pavilion, some dishes and bowls were placed, and the two sat opposite each other and drank.

Bao Xin was originally ordered by the general He Jin to recruit soldiers, and it turned out that the general He Jin meant to train some recruits who were completely loyal to him, but unfortunately when more than 1,000 soldiers were recruited, He Jin had already died in a coup d'état.

Therefore, at this time, in addition to the armor of the original post-military captain, Bao Xin's subordinates also had some unknown troops.

Although the two of them are drinking, they obviously have some worries, so both of them are eating and drinking without a match.

Bao Xin has something on his mind, he can be said to be the person recruited by the great general He Jin, from the cavalry lieutenant to the current military cadet lieutenant, it can be said that he has left too heavy a brand of He Jin, but it has led to him being basically ignored now, so that he can't go up or down now, which direction will he go in the future?

Yuan Shao also has something on his mind, the Yuan family's current resources are tilted towards Yuan Shu, which makes him very helpless, last time Yuan Kui deliberately let him participate in the drive in order to gag him, but unfortunately he was robbed by Dong Zhuo, and he didn't get any practical benefits, but he had a bad relationship with Cao Cao, which was really frustrating.

After three rounds of drinking, Bao Xin still opened the scene first and said: "Dong Zhuo is now on the wall of the Chen Bing Palace, and he must have a good intention. If we sit and wait, we will inevitably have difficulties in the future, and I don't know what we thought in the beginning. ”

Yuan Shao also nodded and said, "What Brother Yuncheng said is very true, but now that Dong Zhuo has heavy troops in hand, what can he do?" ”

Bao Xin lowered his voice and said: "Don't hide the beginning, the general originally sent me to recruit troops, and I have recruited more than 1,000 people, and now I am stationed in Chenggao, and I can come at night." ”

Oh, there is such a strange army, Yuan Shao was a little interested, but Bao Xin's next words extinguished his little hope, "Now that Dong Zhuo's foothold is not stable, and the sergeant is tired, if he is surprised, he will definitely succeed in one fell swoop!" It's just - this division is unknown, and it's hard to convince the public......"

Yuan Shao drank a glass of wine with his sleeve in front of him to hide his uncontrollable disappointment. It turned out that Bao Xin was not looking for him to participate in the grand event, but wanted to find the Yuan family behind him.

"The teacher is unknown, and it is difficult to convince the public"? That's right, as long as there is a famous person who ascends to the top and shouts, will it not be long before he has both? But is he Yuan Shao such a famous person now? Apparently not. In this way, Bao Xin's purpose of coming to him for this matter is very clear, and he wants to establish a relationship with the Yuan family through Yuan Shao, and these more than 1,000 soldiers are Bao Xin's vote.

But Yuan Shao can tell Bao Xin that he has been marginalized by the Yuan family, and the Yuan family has tilted resources to Yuan Shu, is he actually an empty shell under his glamorous eldest son status?

Yuan Shao put down his wine glass and said, "This matter is very important, and it is not possible to act rashly, it is better to discuss it later." ”

Bao Xin thought that Yuan Shao needed to go home to report, of course, it was impossible to give an answer now, so he didn't say anything.

After the two of them had said what they should have said, there was no need to drink the wine anymore, so it ended hastily.

Yuan Shao said goodbye to Bao Xin's house, it was already the height of the moon, quiet all around, a "Yuan" word headlight hung high in front of the carriage, and the wheels made a creaking sound all the way over the bluestone road.

Yuan Shao in the car sneered: "Yuan family, Yuan family!" Prestige, prestige! Yuan Shao has already made up his mind in his heart, since the Yuan family no longer supports him Yuan Shao, then naturally this kind of thing does not need to be told to the Yuan family anymore, now, the most important thing for him Yuan Shao is to seize the opportunity to accumulate prestige, until one day, I Yuan Shao can be like the current Yuan family, only by virtue of prestige, there are people with lofty ideals from all over the world to vote, that is my Yuan Shao's goal, that can realize my wish!
