"Father-in-law, outside Luoyang City, there is no need to worry too early, the son-in-law has already strengthened the defensive strength of the Luoyang City Wall when General Niu and General Lu returned to the city after defeat, and put the 50,000 Xiliang Iron Cavalry who are good at shooting on the Luoyang City Wall, and the son-in-law dares to conclude that Cheng Yuanzhi and Yuan Shao and other thieves will definitely not wave their troops to attack the city, and come with soldiers and horses to send them to death."

"Father-in-law, the son-in-law thinks that what to worry about at this time, to take precautions, is in Luoyang City, now Cao Cao and Sun Jian have not yet run away, lurking in or near Luoyang City, these two people are attached to Luoyang like a dog skin plaster, but it is a big trouble. And the enemy soldiers are coming to the city, the hearts of the people in Luoyang City are floating, presumably there will be people and all parties to conspire against each other, then Luoyang City may have a wave of undercurrent surging, this involves a hair and moves the whole body, the father-in-law has to guard, and also ask the father-in-law to plan as soon as possible, so as not to catch fire in the backyard and cause trouble to the city tower. ”

Li Ru's meaning is actually to want Dong Zhuo to beat Niu Fu, Guo Yan and Fan Chou and others, don't always connive at the Xiliang army to bully Lu Bu's Bingzhou army, although Lu Bu often doesn't dare to care about it for the sake of Taishi Dong Zhuo is his father-in-law, but he bullied it ruthlessly, and the Bingzhou army may ignore Lu Bu and fight with Niu Fu and others' Xiliang army.

If Lu Bu betrayed Ding Yuan, he would give Dong Zhuo another backstab, and then Cao Cao and Sun Jian of Luoyang City joined forces to attack again, and all forces in Luoyang City intended to overthrow Dong Zhuo, and when the time came, it would be difficult for Dong Zhuo not to lose.

I didn't see that Li Su and Zhang Ji were ostensibly generals and strategists under Dong Zhuo, but in fact, they had secretly defected to Lu Bu, which was not forced by Niu Fu, Guo Yan, Fan Chou and others.

These Xiliang reckless men are really outsiders, insiders, and insiders, and they will fight in the nest.

It's a pity that Dong Zhuo is a person who goes straight and can't hear the sound outside the strings, since Li Ru said that there is no need to worry about the anti-Dong army outside Luoyang City, then Dong Zhuo feels at ease, after all, in Dong Zhuo's eyes, 200,000 Xiliang Iron Cavalry is a loss of 70,000 or 80,000, but with Lu Bu's more than 40,000 Bingzhou troops supplementing it, the soldiers and horses under his command still reach as many as 150,000.

And Cao Cao and Sun Jian, adding up to 10,000 soldiers and horses at most, hid here in Luoyang City, making a small fuss, causing some small trouble to Dong Zhuo, and Dong Zhuo was too lazy to take care of such trivial matters. As for the forces in the city that Li Ru said, Dong Zhuo didn't take it seriously, a group of rabble, if they really could succeed, Dong Zhuo would not be able to settle in the capital Luoyang in the first place.

It's not worth mentioning, it's not worth worrying about.

"That's it, Wen You, you are the most trusted advisor of this Taishi, and you are also a military advisor, and you will handle all the military affairs in Luoyang City. And you, this group of waste, you have to assist Wen You a lot, you really want to let this Taishi suffer a big defeat, lose the capital Luoyang, and this Taishi will flee back to Chang'an, but you will have no place. Think about it, don't step on the horse will only make this master worry. ”

"Okay, this master is tired, so let's go back to the palace to rest first, you all retreat, the hour is not early, this master also made an appointment with the concubines and palace maids in the palace, and the decisive battle has to be fought until dawn. Alas, this master is a hard worker, he has to worry about it every day, he can't take care of the beauties in the palace, and he has to take care of you unconscious scumbags. ! ”

After Dong Zhuo finished scolding, he waved his hand directly, making everyone retreat, Li Ru said that it was okay, then it was fine, Dong Zhuo didn't plan to ignore it. If there is really something, Dong Zhuo can't take care of it. Anyway, Li Ru likes to do whatever he wants, and Dong Zhuo can just enjoy it.

In Luoyang City, as Li Ru said, the wind and clouds are changing, and the torrents are surging.

Not only was the soldiers and horses under Dong Zhuo's command discordant, but the Xiliang army did not give Wen Hou Lu Bu face, and wantonly bullied and suppressed the army of Bingzhou, causing the strategists and generals under Lu Bu to complain to Lu Bu, with deep grievances and personal enmity, and the civil and military officials in the court also moved their minds.

Situ Wang Yun and his uncle Dong Cheng frequently contacted, and there were many secret meetings, often talking late at night, and the things they talked about were extremely private, and no one knew the content.

Of course, these are all developing slowly, and the first person to do it is Cao Cao Mengde, who has been hiding in Luoyang City to do things.

Cao Cao also received the news and knew that the army of Sikong Cheng Yuanzhi and Bohai Taishou Yuan Shao had arrived outside Luoyang City.

Cao Cao didn't have to think about it, he knew that Cheng Yuanzhi and Yuan Shao didn't dare to attack the city, the soldiers and horses in Luoyang City were ten times more than the Tiger Prison Pass, and the walls of Luoyang City were high and thick, so they were not easy to attack, and Cheng Yuanzhi and Yuan Shao were both people who had been in charge of the army for a long time, and they would not make such low-level mistakes.

If you want to take down Dong Zhuo and drive away the Xiliang army, the most direct way is to kill Dong Zhuo.

Cao Cao knew that he didn't have many soldiers and horses, and he couldn't make waves in Luoyang City, so he couldn't do it on the surface, Cao Cao planned to come to Yin.

If you can't beat Dong Zhuo, it's okay to assassinate.

Cao Cao felt that as long as Dong Zhuo was assassinated, the dragons would be leaderless, and the Xiliang Iron Cavalry army led by the Xiliang generals would not obey Lu Bu, and the entire Luoyang City would be in chaos, giving all the candidates and the conspiracy and careerists in Luoyang City an excellent opportunity.

And the person who killed Dong Zhuo was Cao Cao, and this great achievement would definitely not be able to escape.

Thinking of this, Cao Cao took the four generals Xia Houdun, Xia Houyuan, Cao Ren and Cao Hong, led the soldiers and horses recruited in Chenliu County, and quietly infiltrated the palace.

"Miaocai, you take the soldiers and horses, and you are responsible for letting go of the wind here and guarding the back road. Ben Jiang and Yuan Rang, Zixiao, Zilian and others went in, and inside the palace, there was a lot of security, and it was not good if there were too many people. ”

Cao Cao benefited from the previous fight with Yuan Shao to avenge the general He Jin, and attacked the palace once, so he was familiar with the layout of the palace in the palace and the roads in the palace.

At this time, Cao Cao took his four generals through the secret passage in the palace, from the outside in, all the way into the palace, and set up an ambush near Dong Zhuo's bedroom in advance.

This secret passage, even Dong Zhuo didn't know, when Zhang Rang kidnapped the Son of Heaven Liu Xie and the Young Emperor Liu Bian, they escaped from the palace from this secret passage and absconded to the mountain outside Luoyang City.

"Yuan Rang, Dong Zhuo, the old thief, although he was looking for fun, he did not relax his vigilance, and still let Lu Bu, the three family slaves, guard him outside the room. In this way, Ben will get in through the window alone, hide behind the screen, and wait for Dong Zhuo to fall asleep, Ben will make a move, and whether he succeeds or not, he must retreat quickly and escape from the palace through the secret passage. If Lu Bu chases, Yuan Rang and Zixiao will be responsible for stopping Lu Bu, and Zilian, you will lead the soldiers and horses together with the Miaocai outside the secret road, don't be separated, the mountain is vast, once you are separated, it will be difficult to search. ”

Cao Cao and Xia Houdun, Cao Ren and Cao Hong went to Dong Zhuo's bedroom alone, planning to attack Dong Zhuo tonight with a wave of assassinations and assassinations.
