Chapter Twenty-Eight: "The Digging of the Wall"
Speaking of Dong Zhuo's side, when he heard the report of the coming of the customs collection, saying that the princes of the Eighteenth Road came straight to the Tiger Prison, Dong Zhuo's face was green, this group of thieves, because they usually treat them well, they actually turned against themselves, they still killed less, they should have killed and killed them all, Dong Zhuo's face was murderous.
Li Ru was still relatively calm, and said, "Taishi, the top priority is to hold the Surabaya Pass and the Tiger Prison Pass, otherwise Luoyang will be in danger." Of course, Dong Zhuo knows this, once the tiger prison is broken, what kind of fate he will face. Thinking of this, he said: "Where is Hua Xiong," a person under the tent stepped forward, this person is nine feet long, with a tiger body and a wolf waist, and a leopard head and ape arms, he is the first general in Xiliang, only to see Hua Xiong hugging his fists and saying: "The last will be." Dong Zhuo said: "This Taishi has crowned you as a captain, commanded 50,000 troops, and went to Surabaya Pass, and must hold out until our army arrives." "Yes," Hua Xiong took the general order and went out.
Li Ru said to Dong Zhuo: "Taishi, it is not enough to rely on Huaxiong alone, if you want to break the enemy, you need one person," Dong Zhuo reacted and said suspiciously: "Is it Lu Bu?" Li Ru nodded. Dong Zhuo thought for a while and said, "Come on, go and ask for Fengxian." ”
Of course, Lu Bu heard that the princes of the Eighteenth Route had come to invade the Tiger Prison, and he was discussing with Chen Gong how to maximize the benefits of this war and fight for Dong Zhuo and merge the state soldiers, hehe. At this moment, Dong Zhuo's messenger also arrived. Lu Bu followed the messenger to the Taishi's Mansion together: "The last general will meet the Taishi," and when he arrived in front of Dong Zhuo, he clasped his fists and said. "Feng is here first," Dong Zhuo's face was gloomy, but he squeezed out a smile, and Lu Bu said, "Could it be that the Taishi is worried about the princes outside the Tiger Prison Pass." Dong Zhuo didn't speak, nodded, and Lu Bu continued: "I regard the princes outside the gate as like a chicken, and if I make a move, I will defeat them." Dong Zhuo was overjoyed: "I have Fengxian, why not be afraid of the princes outside the border." Please also order troops immediately and rush to the Tiger Prison Pass. ”
Lu Bu said: "This time to go to the Tiger Prison Pass, I still hope that the Taishi will agree to something." Dong Zhuo's face was a little unsightly, but he didn't refute him, but said, "I don't know what happened to Feng Xian." Lu Bu said: "The last general is out on the expedition, and I hope that the prime minister will give him a deputy general," Dong Zhuo's face turned from gloomy to sunny, this Lu Bu is really sensible, there are so many people in Lu Bu's army, does he lack a deputy general? The answer is no, but he is still so much, who gives himself a chance, a chance to give himself a handle. Dong Zhuo's face turned into a flower, "Why does Feng Xian need to be like this, this Taishi still can't believe you." That being said, the doubts in my heart were slowly dissipating. But Lu Bu still insisted. In the end, Dong Zhuo had no choice but to let Lu Bu choose a few generals by himself as deputy generals. Lu Bu said yes and turned to leave.
After walking a few steps and coming back reflexively, Dong Zhuo was a little strange: What else is there to do with Feng Xian? Lu Bu looked a little embarrassed and said: "Lord, my current accounts are all five big and three coarse, and I don't even have an accountkeeper, I want to pick a document by the way, I don't know the lord." Dong Zhuo laughed when he heard this, "I thought it was a big deal, it turned out to be like this, Feng Xian didn't have to be polite, although he chose it." "Thank you, my lord." Lu Bu turned to leave.
After Lu Bu left, Dong Zhuo said to Li Ru: "Wen You, look at how this Lu Bu is." Li Ru nodded, and said succinctly, "Available." Dong Zhuo's heart was even more determined. It seems that the princes outside the gate are no longer enough.
Half a day later, the person selected by Lu Bu came back, and he picked two people, namely: "Xu Rong, and there is also a civil official named Jia Xu." As soon as Dong Zhuo saw that these people he picked were all people he didn't know, he thought that Lu Bu was picked casually, so he gave these people to Lu Bu with a casual stroke, but he didn't know if Dong Zhuo knew the skills of these people, he would not cry to death.
Hehe, these two people are famous characters. Xu Rong, although he is not known in history, but his record is no better than the first-class generals of the Three Kingdoms, as for Jia Xu, not to mention, the top strategists of the Three Kingdoms, if it weren't for the fact that this product has always pursued a policy of protecting me, he would definitely shine, but what would it be like in the hands of Lu Bu. It's going to be hehe.
