Su Xiu didn't understand what Dong Zhuo's purpose was for staying, and out of disgust for Dong Zhuo and his people, Su Xiu still decisively refused.

"Thank you Dashuai for your love, how can the last general's little trick be compared with Wen Xiansheng, when today's wise people, people who can be compared with Wen Xiansheng do not say that there is no at all, but it will definitely not exceed the number of five fingers, why should Dashuai go far and near? What's more, I Mount Tai is poor, the population is sparse, so there are not many soldiers, if it is not for the Qingzhou Yellow Turban to get up and commit my Mount Tai, I will never dare to bring out all the soldiers who can fight in Mount Tai, this time the bandits around Mount Tai have not been cleared, the end will not dare to live outside for a long time, for the people, please forgive the end will not be able to obey the fate. ”

Su Xiu saw a young Confucian in his early twenties beside Dong Zhuo outside the city, this person followed closely behind Dong Zhuo, and beside him were two young generals in fresh clothes and angry horses, Su Xiu guessed that it should be Li Dao Guo Yan. In the Xiliang Army, the Confucian students who can surpass these two people have no other possibility except for Li Ru and Li Wenyou.

Su Xiu's words made Dong Zhuo very surprised, this Li Ru is his son-in-law who has just been recruited, except for the decisive strategy for Dong Zhuo in the Qiang rebellion that just happened, no one knows that there is such a person in the world, where does this Su Xiu know? And Xiliang is nearly two thousand miles away from Mount Tai, and listening to his tone, it seems that he still knows Li Ru very well, and he actually lifted him so high.

"Oh? Su Taishou also knows that there is Li Wenyou in the world? Dong Zhuo was deeply puzzled by this, you must know that even Dong Zhuo didn't know much about Li Ru before the counterinsurgency, he only felt that this person was relatively smart, and he was ready to take it with him to let him see more.

Su Xiu heard Dong Zhuo's words, and immediately knew that he was exposed, before Dong Zhuo usurped power, almost no one in the world knew about Li Ru, and he had never been to Xiliang, where did he learn about Li Ru's extraordinary ability?

"The last general has never seen Wen Xiansheng, but one of the last generals is a captain who is Zuo Feng (ping sound Tongping) Yi (yi Yin Tongyi) Haoyang people, when he joined the army, he strongly recommended Wen Xiansheng to me, saying that Wen Xiansheng has the talent to stay in the marquis, who expected that after he identified me just now, the last general knew that Wen Xiansheng had already served under the Dashuai's account, and he was really helpless." In desperation, Su Xiu had no choice but to lie.

"Haha, if you also contribute to the Han, you don't have to share anything to serve me for you, Su Taishou is young and promising, and I will let Wenyou get closer to you in the future." As you just said, the people of Mount Tai are really important, and I won't force you to stay, and I hope that Su Taishou will clear the bandits in Qingzhou as soon as possible, and return me to a good man. ”

"The last general will not accept the trust of the commander! It's just that the military situation is urgent, and the last general will go back to reorganize the army, return to Mount Tai as soon as possible, and strive to eliminate the bandits as soon as possible, and the last general will retire. ”

"Well, the military situation is urgent, when you return to the army, Su Taishou can organize the army and leave, and there is no need to resign." Hearing that Su Xiu spoke highly of his son-in-law, Dong Zhuo was also very happy in his heart, and he didn't mention Su Xiu's words anymore.

However, Li Ru began to pay attention to this county guard. Dong Zhuo doesn't know, but he himself understands very well, although he is a person from Zuo Fengyi, but he went away to study at a young age, and only returned to Haoyang once a few years ago, and then defected to Dong Zhuo in Xiliang, Li Ru didn't believe that there was really a coincidence in the world, so that this young Taishou knew that he was such a lonely and unknown Confucian student. However, he didn't expose Su Xiu's intentions, but just raised Su Xiu's danger level to a very high position in his heart.

Su Xiu didn't know that he had been blacklisted by Li Ru, and when he left the county office, Su Xiu went straight to the place where the prisoner was held, preparing to send the prisoner to Wang Hai overnight.

In the past two days, Dong Zhuo was busy taking over the military power, and did not notice his actions, so that Su Xiu successfully brought 50,000 strong prisoners and their families to the Wang Haijun camp and set off to return to Mount Tai.

After Dong Zhuo successfully took over the military power of the Northern Front, he remembered the problem of the spoils after the end of the Battle of Guangzong. He knew that Sun Jian and the others were nominally under his command, but he did not participate in the battle of Guangzong, and it was unreasonable to want to divide the spoils, so although he was greedy, it was not easy to ask.

Since Li Ru has promoted Su Xiu to a highly dangerous position, he naturally has to pay attention to him, and after learning from the spies sent out that Su Xiu took away nearly 100,000 captives of the Yellow Turban, Li Ru felt that the problem was big and hurriedly came to Dong Zhuo to discuss.

"You said that Su Xiu took nearly 100,000 Yellow Turban captives? Why does he want so many people? What's more, he is only a few thousand people in Guangzong, so he is not afraid of these 100,000 riots? "Dong Zhuo, as a general, naturally knows the hidden danger of a huge difference between the strength of the prisoners and the guards.

"I heard that Tanma's report said that he was preparing to bring these people back to Mount Tai to build roads and bridges, and he had already mobilized a large army to Guangzong, but the speed of this Guangzong was too fast, and his brigade had not yet arrived, and the battle had already ended, so he was stationed dozens of miles south of the city, and there must be no hidden dangers in the escort. It's just that Lord Yuezhang should be careful of this person, and it will become a big trouble for me in the future. ”

"How so?" When Dong Zhuo saw Li Ru say this, he immediately became colorful.

"Does my father-in-law think that the big man can still be calm after this yellow scarf? This world has already appeared in the princes, this chaos Han will fall, the heroes rise together, I think this person is also a person with a ravine, and his achievements must not be a mere Taishan county guard can be satisfied. In addition, Taishan was originally a poor and remote country, and mountain bandits were rampant, but he was only five years in office to build an elite army of tens of thousands of people, and his political and military capabilities can be seen.

Now that he first broke the wave and then defeated Li Damu, will he gain fewer prisoners? Now that he has brought back 100,000 captives, where does he need so much coolie to build roads and bridges in Taishan County? Although this Yellow Turban thief cannot be compared with the regular elite, but after all, he is a person who has been on the battlefield, and diligent training can also become a good combat force, eliminating the old and weak, this Yellow Turban Rebellion Su Xiu captured at least sixty or seventy thousand Yellow Turban young men, plus Taishan's original troops, he is sitting on 100,000 strong troops, and he will inevitably become the biggest obstacle to our army's hegemony, and he must be guarded against. ”

"100,000 strong troops?" I don't know if I don't analyze it, and I'm shocked when I analyze it. Dong Zhuo himself is the general who commands the party, so he naturally knows what it means to have an army of 100,000. In the Han Dynasty system, a county was equipped with a permanent army of about 5,000, and the larger county was only 8,000, and the military strength of a state would not exceed 50,000. However, this Su Xiu only has a county of Mount Tai, but he has an army of 100,000, how can he not startle Dong Zhuo in a cold sweat?

"Nothing more, no less. Uncle Yue, you think, if it is really just for them to build roads, there is no need to bring the old and weak women and children with them, but Su Xiu is to bring his family members back, this is to dispel the worries of the captives, Taishan people are prosperous, and the development is naturally rapid by day, plus this batch of coolies who can evolve into combat effectiveness at any time, as long as he is willing, he can pull out an army of 100,000 at any time. What's more, there are still a lot of Yellow Turban remnants in Qingzhou now, and he can still reorganize all the way, this young man has a lot of ambitions, if he can't be used by me or become a hardcore ally, he will become a big trouble one day. ”
