"Wen You, my father is very hesitant now, do you think my father should guard this tiger prison?" Encountering this situation, Dong Zhuo, a generation of heroes, also beat a drum in his heart, now he is in a dilemma, whether he continues to defend this tiger prison or not, he needs a suitable reason for him to make this decision.

Li Ru looked at Dong Zhuo, and without too much hesitation, he lowered his head and said his opinion.

"Father, whether you keep it or not, it depends on how determined your father is!"

"What do you mean by that?" How determined he is, he can decide whether to keep this tiger prison or not!

Li Ru raised his head slightly and saluted Dong Zhuo, "Father, if you want to continue to defend the Tiger Prison Pass and keep Luoyang, then we will have to sacrifice a lot of descendant troops, and maybe in the end, the last tens of thousands of Xiliang troops will probably be exhausted here; If my father withdraws from the Tiger Prison Pass, we must give up Luoyang, which is easy to attack and difficult to defend, so we can only retreat to Guanzhong and defend Tongguan, which can be safe! ”

Li Ru knows very well that the significance of guarding the Tiger Prison Pass is to keep Luoyang from losing, but in the current situation, can they continue to defend the Tiger Prison Pass?

After listening to Li Ru's words, Dong Zhuo fell into deep thought, he was still very conflicted in his heart, he spent a lot of effort to go east out of Guanzhong, take Luoyang, and become the Han under one person, above ten thousand people, no, it should be the prime minister of the Han Dynasty above everyone, he didn't want to give up the rich Luoyang land from the bottom of his heart.

"Wen You, what if you want to die to protect Luoyang for your father?"

"Father, if you want to keep Luoyang, then the Tiger Prison Pass must not be lost, then we have to fight to the death in the Tiger Prison Pass and the Kwantung Army, and drag them until they are short of food and grass or have internal contradictions, then we can successfully defend the Tiger Prison Pass!" Looking at Dong Zhuo's somewhat moved expression, Li Ru finished talking about the strategy, and the natural consequences should be explained to Dong Zhuo.

"Father, it is not a simple matter to drag the army of Kwantung to the collapse, first of all, it is impossible to consume these horses until that day, which means that we must continue to draw troops from Guanzhong and do our best to achieve this! But my father did this, the pressure we are on is not only the Kwantung Coalition Army, but also those Han family relics, father, you know, they have always been not very honest, if our troops in Chang'an are too empty, I am afraid that those of them will make trouble, and when the time comes, we will fall into the belly and back of the enemy! ”

Dong Zhuo didn't answer Li Ru for the first time, he was still weighing it in his heart, after all, this is not a small decision, no matter what his decision is, it will have a great impact on the general trend of the world!

"Wen Youwu'er, what if you give up the Tiger Prison Pass for your father?" Dong Zhuo wanted to hear Li Ru's gains and losses in giving up the Tiger Prison Pass.

"Father, giving up the Tiger Prison Pass means that we will also give up the land of Luoyang, and even, in order to temporarily avoid the offensive of the Kwantung Coalition Army, there is only one way to go, that is, to retreat to Guanzhong and defend Tongguan, the Kwantung Coalition Army has no foundation in the land of Luoyang, and will not attack our well-defended Tongguan, they can only retreat!"

Li Ru took a breath and continued: "Father, after we retreat to Tongguan, not only can our descendants' Xiliang Army be preserved, but we can also deter those with bad intentions, continue to control the imperial court, and coerce the Son of Heaven to order the princes!" After recovering your vitality, you can also go out of Tongguan and unify the world! ”

Li Ru's meaning is already very clear, and his opinion on Dong Zhuo is naturally to give up the Tiger Prison Pass, abandon Luoyang, and return to Guanzhong, which is the best policy!

"The child is bold, please ask your father to give up Luoyang and return to Guanzhong!" Li Ru hugged his fists again and gave Dong Zhuo a salute.

After listening to Li Ru's analysis, Dong Zhuo was not a fool, of course he knew that that choice was what he needed more, but he just gave up the land of Luoyang like this, he didn't want to cheapen those Kwantung coalition forces!

"Wen You, we have worked hard to take the land of Luoyang, and now we only bring a useless emperor and a group of pedantic Han foolish ministers back to Chang'an, our losses are too great!"

Dong Zhuo's meaning, of course Li Ru understands, he is still a little reluctant to the prosperous Luoyang, but Dong Zhuo is also reasonable, although they took a lot of property from the Han family's treasure house, but it is not enough to compensate for their losses, nor can it support them to counterattack back in a short time, so they need to find it from somewhere!

Li Ru lowered his head and pondered for a moment, and a "clever plan" appeared in his mind, this plan could completely make up for their losses!

"Father, such a rich Luoyang, we naturally can't leave it to the rebels outside the border, the child has a plan here, but after we withdraw from Luoyang, those rebels will not be able to take advantage of Luoyang at all!" A sneer appeared at the corner of Li Ru's mouth, thinking that he was complacent about his "clever plan"!

"Oh? Wenyou, what are your plans? Dong Zhuo became interested, the last time Li Ru showed such a confident expression, it was when they decided to go east to Luoyang!

"Father,; Although there are no emperors and dignitaries in Luoyang, there are still hundreds of thousands of people, and the rich families are not in the decimals. When we retreat, bring all these people back to Guanzhong, which can not only increase the population of Chang'an, but also accumulate some more strength for our counteroffensive in the future! ”

That's right, just like in history, Li Ru also came up with this poisonous plan to draw wages from the bottom of the kettle, which not only caused the displacement of hundreds of thousands of people, but also destroyed the thousand-year-old capital Luoyang!

After listening to Li Ru's plan, Dong Zhuo didn't think too much about it before he recognized this completely inhuman strategy! Because Dong Zhuo is not a kind person, those people are just untouchables in his eyes, and he only cares about his own interests!

"Good! Wen You deserves to be the most trusted person for his father! So when can we do it? How about we retreat tomorrow? Since he has decided to give up Luoyang, what he wants now is to return to Chang'an as soon as possible, so that those young people will not dare to act rashly!

"Father, now that the war is raging in Tiger Prison, if we retreat rashly, it will not necessarily arouse the vigilance of the rebels outside the border and attract pursuers, so it will be difficult to implement the plan." Li Ru shook his head, it was not yet time to retreat, even if they had to leave, they would have to drag it out until the day when the Kwantung Coalition Army would rest, so that they could retreat unnoticed!

"Father, the child's suggestion is that most of the troops will not retreat first, and the plan to empty Luoyang can be implemented earlier, we can first send a henchman general to bring 10,000 people in the pass first, and then cooperate with the Luoyang defenders to carry all the soldiers of Luoyang back to Chang'an! We can first deal with the rebels in the Tiger Prison Pass, and after the troops of Luoyang enter Tongguan, it will not be too late for us to retreat! ”

Dong Zhuo nodded, Li Ru's intention was very safe, and he had no objections......
