Chapter 17: Title-kun is arrested
Duan Xuan's marching speed was not fast, although Li Wei sent people to urge him several times, but Duan Xuan actually didn't want to fight this battle, so since Yu Mi sent out his troops, he traveled less than thirty miles a day, which can be said to be a turtle speed compared to the speed of the regular army.
"General, if you go on like this, it will take ten days to rush to Yixian, to say the least." Not long after leaving this day, Duan Xuan went down to the village again, and a deputy general couldn't help but ask: "Since the general is unwilling to participate in the war, why don't you just refuse?" ”
This march will consume grain and grass, if Duan Xuan is unwilling to fight this battle and does not respond to Li Dao and Guo Yan, walking slowly like this will only consume grain and grass.
"I'm still going to go." Duan Xuan closed the book, shook his head and said, between him and Yang Ding, there is still an account that has not been settled, this time since Yang Ding also participated, he naturally had to come, otherwise I don't know what Yang Ding's villain will arrange.
"General, there are a group of people outside the camp who want to see them, saying that they are the general's old people and have come to defect." A captain of the garrison came in and saluted Duan Xuan.
"The deceased?" Duan Xuan put down the book and stood up, thought for a while, and said, "How many people are there?" ”
"At the head are two people, a scribe, the other who looks like a guard leader, and the rest are guards."
"Let the guards stay outside the camp and let only the two in." Duan Xuan has nothing to do, but he wants to meet these two people, maybe they are fellow villagers, Jia Xu's departure made him a little angry, if he is a fellow villager, he is indeed short of manpower around him now.
"Brother Zhongming, long time no see!" Soon, Li Ru and Hua Xiong came in, and Li Ru smiled at Duan Xuan.
After drinking a sip of water, Duan Xuan stood up and looked at the two of them in surprise, Li Ru and Hua Xiong, of course he recognized that when he was not valued under Dong Zhuo, the two of them were already Dong Zhuo's henchmen.
"Whoa~"
Hearing the sound, the guards around rushed over and pointed their weapons at the two of them.
"I haven't seen you for many years, Brother Zhongming's hospitality is not simple!" Hua Xiong's eyes widened angrily, and he was about to have a seizure, but he was stopped by Li Ru and looked at Duan Xuan with a smile.
"It's rude." Duan Xuan waved his hand and said, "All retreat, you are not allowed to come in without my order." ”
"Whoa!" A group of guards bowed down and retired.
"When Dong Xiang died, Chang'an City was in turmoil, Mr. disappeared, I sent someone to investigate secretly, but I never found Mr., I don't know where Mr. has gone all these years?" Duan Xuan invited the two to sit down, looked at Li Ru and smiled.
"Brother Zhongming really can't see it?" Li Ru smiled and said, he was directly picked up by Ye Zhao with a flying boat, but Hua Xiong was captured by Dian Wei Sheng under the Tiger Prison back then, but many people know about it, and now that Hua Xiong is here, in fact, there are many questions that don't need to be detailed.
"I can't believe it." Duan Xuan glanced at Hua Xiong, then looked at Li Ru and said, "In this way, Wen Wei is now in ...... Which one of the subordinates is in office? ”
"Wen Kai?" Li Ru looked at Hua Xiong.
Hua Xiong nodded, walked straight out of the tent, and stood guard outside the door.
Li Ru nodded and said, "This time, my lord sent troops to add wine for the military division!" ”
"Taiwei has the wisdom to know people, and he also has the ability to use people, Brother Wen Wei has to meet the master this time." Duan Xuan said with a smile.
"If Brother Zhongming is envious, now is the right time." Li Ru looked at Duan Xuan and smiled.
"Me?" Duan Xuan shook his head, he thought that Dong Zhuo could help his Duan family turn over and take revenge, but who would have thought that Dong Zhuo was a short-lived ghost, and he was killed by Lu Bu every two years when he arrived in Chang'an, and then there was chaos in Guanzhong, if it weren't for Ye Zhao's strategy, so that Li Dao and Guo Yan would not have the embarrassment that no one was available, and now in Guanzhong, I am afraid that even the current vitality will not be able to be maintained.
For Ye Zhao, Duan Xuan admired it very much, and the most important thing was that although that plan kept Guanzhong alive, it made Ye Zhao stand on the opposite side of the world's corporals.
Don't look at Zhong Zhao's first entry into Shu, he can talk and laugh with Ye Zhao, that is, Ye Zhao is only confined to Shu, once Ye Zhao is out of Shu, I am afraid that the Zhong family will be the first to jump out to oppose it, Ye Zhao's plan back then not only directly let the scholars speak in the imperial court, but even many princes in the eastern part of the Kanto region are more or less effective in imitating Ye Zhao's signs, but they dare not do as unscrupulous as Li Dao and Guo Yan, and the status of scholars is gradually shaking.
However, compared with ten years ago, in the past ten years, as the princes have suppressed the scholars either openly or covertly, the scholars' right to speak is far from the same as the gang of rebels back then.
From this point of view, Duan Xuan was very close to Ye Zhao.
Looking at Li Ru for a long time, Duan Xuan smiled bitterly: "Don't hide it from Brother Wen, Taiwei Wenzhi's martial arts are very admired below, but ...... Now that I haven't made an inch, if I defect to the captain at this time, it will be ......"
The rules on Ye Zhao's side, Duan Xuan has heard of it, no merit is rewarded, no ability is not official, Duan Xuan thinks that there are still some of them, at least over the years, he has been quite effective in governing the place by himself, and leading the troops to fight is not too powerful, but it is not too bad, but there is no skill to vote, I am afraid it is difficult to see it used for Ye Zhao.
asked him to start from the bottom again, Duan Xuan naturally resisted in his heart, he was no longer young.
"Confused!" Li Ru looked at Duan Xuan and shook his head and said, "There is a great merit in front of you, how can you say that it is useless?" ”
"You mean ......" Duan Xuan looked at Li Ru, a little uncertain.
"Now that my lord wants to capture Guanzhong, at this moment, Li Dao and Guo Yan are in Yixian, if Brother Zhongming can help my lord break it, how can it be said that it is useless?" Li Ru said with a smile.
"How? Don't worry about going around in circles with me. Duan Xuan said in a deep voice.
"Brother Zhongming only needs to help me cut off Li Dao's retreat at the right time." Li Ru said with a smile.
"What is the right time?"
"It's still uncertain now, on the battlefield, changing rapidly, how can you make it clear at this time? Brother Zhongming only led the army to Yixian County at this time, and when the time came, he would send someone to contact Brother Zhongming. ”
"Okay, then I'll rush to Yixian here." Duan Xuan said immediately.
"Don't worry, Brother Zhongming didn't travel more than thirty miles a day before, but now if he suddenly rushes, then Li Dao and Guo Yan will definitely be suspicious!" Li Ru shook his head and said.
"There is one more thing, I need Wen to help me." Duan Xuan looked at Li Rudao.
"What?"
"Yang Ding, do you also want to lobby?" Duan Xuan looked at Li Rudao.
"You have a grudge against Yang Zhuangxiu?" Li Ru asked with a smile.
"Not bad." Duan Xuan took a deep breath and said: "Li Dao and Guo Yan are not the masters of success, when I protected the Son of Heaven and returned to the east, then Yang Ding was also there, and I colluded with Chongji, Yang Xin and others to slander Guo Yan, and then defected to Li Dao, in turn, I turned against the Son of Heaven and Li Guo, so that I lost my troops and almost died in Huayin, this revenge is not a common day!" ”
Li Ru looked at Duan Xuan and suddenly smiled: "It's a coincidence, and there are some grievances with this person, and this time it happened to be settled together." ”
"Really?" Duan Xuan looked at Li Rudao.
"Brother Zhongming just needs to sit on the wall and watch to see what happens to him." Li Ru said with a smile.
"Brother Wen Wei's ability is very admired below, so I will quietly observe Brother Wen Wei's ability below."
"Without further ado, I'll take my leave." Li Ru got up immediately, the itinerary was a bit rushed, and he had to lobby the three reinforcements before they arrived in Yixian to join Li Dao and Guo Yan.
Duan Xuan got up and prepared to send him off, but was stopped by Li Ru, now in this big camp, there may not be no spies from Li Dao and Guo Yan, if they are seen clues, they will not be beautiful at that time.
After leaving a guard to follow Duan Xuan and be the contact person in the future, Li Ru took Hua Xiong and a team of guards on the road, Ye Zhao will spy all over the cities in Guanzhong over the years, and Li Ru can easily get the news of several other soldiers and horses.
Three days later, Yang Ding camped.
Compared with Duan Xuan, Yang Ding was not very polite to Li Ru, and after Li Ru expressed his intentions, Yang Ding smiled directly: "Tai Wei's ability to be an empty glove wolf is not weak, if I help him, I don't know what position Tai Wei is going to treat me." ”
"Presumptuous!" Hua Xiong's eyes were cold, and he looked at Yang Ding and said, "What are you?" Dare to be so rude to the military advisor? ”
"IMHO!" Yang Ding looked at Hua Xiong, took a few steps back quietly, and said: "In the past, when Dong Zhuo was there, I still respected Er and waited for three points, but now that Dong Zhuo is dead, you have no backer, and now you have taken refuge in Taiwei, if I join the Taiwei's account, wouldn't I have to look at Er's face?" ”
"You ......" Hua Xiong was furious and was about to attack, but was stopped by Li Ru.
"Brother Renovation is right, but as long as Brother Renovation is willing to cooperate, he will naturally have a share of Brother Repair, as for looking at my face, don't worry, if you win this battle, with the credit of Brother Repair, the position will be above me!" Li Ru said with a smile.
"Oh?" Yang Ding's expression moved, looked at Li Ru and said, "In this way, there are still people who will cooperate with me?" Who is it? ”
"Zhu Ci!"
"Sir, he hasn't promised me to wait!" Huaxiong said urgently.
"Don't worry, Brother Renovation is a smart person, which is more worthy of running to my lord or that Li Dao or Guo Yan, I believe Brother Renovation can see clearly." Li Ru shook his head with a smile.
"Not bad!" Yang Ding smiled and said: "Don't blame Wen Wei, I tried each other before, please wait for me to tell Ye Hou, I will do my best to help in this battle!" ”
"Very good!" Li Ru got up and said with a smile: "Without further ado, I should also go back to my life." ”
"Brother Wen Wei hasn't been to that simmer yet." Yang Ding said with a smile.
"This person had an old grudge with me in the past, and this time he is also among the eradications!" Li Ru said with a smile.
……
Two days later, Zhu Ci camped.
"So, Yang Ding has already agreed?" Zhu Ci looked at Li Rudao.
"Yes, Brother Ming Xiao should be clear, the renovation is the best at judging the situation, now my lord is powerful, Li Guo and the two look like gods, how can they win against my lord, I have already secretly dedicated a letter to my lord!" Li Ru nodded.
"Strategist, he hasn't promised me to wait yet!" Hua Xiong looked at Li Ru with an anxious expression.
Li Ru secretly gave Hua Xiong an appreciative look, shook his head and said: "Those who know the times are Junjie, and I believe that Brother Ming Xiao is a Junjie." ”
"Wen Wei knows me, let's say, how to do it?" Zhu Ci asked.
"Someone will be notified then." Li Ru said with a smile.
"Okay, then I'll wait for good news!"
