"Uncle, Niu Fu is becoming more and more incompetent! The 30,000-foot cavalry army returned defeated, crossed the city without entering, and only left us to defend the city. I think he's afraid of Xia Jun! In Anyi City, Zhang Xiuyu was disdainful and angry, and said to Zhang Ji.

"Shut up! Huangkou Xiaoer, Niu Zhonglang is not something you can criticize! In the hall, Zhang Ji's face changed when he heard this, glanced at Yang Ding next to him, and scolded.

Seeing Zhang Ji's stern tone, Zhang Xiu closed his voice, and Zhang Ji looked at Yang Ding and arched his hand: "Brother Yang, although the Xia army retreats north, it still threatens Anyi at all times, and their ambitions in Hedong will not be restrained. Niu Zhonglang's side again, hey, don't mention it. Our army is newly defeated, and the army's heart is unstable, so I also ask Brother Yang to go to the city, appease the soldiers, and inspect the city defense! If you lose Anyi, it's not easy to explain it on the Taishi's side! “

"Leave it to me!" Yang Ding nodded and strode out of the door, with a strong style of ability.

After Yang Ding walked away, Zhang Ji put away his previous seriousness, sighed and said to Zhang Xiu: "Niu Zhonglang, after all, he is the son-in-law of the Taishi, and he has a lot of power in his hands. If your words reach his ears, woe will be great. There are some words that you can keep in your heart, otherwise disaster will come out of your mouth, not to mention, in front of outsiders! “

"Uncle, nephew knows his mistake!" Hearing Zhang Ji's teachings, Zhang Xiu's heart was a little unconvinced, and he hugged his fists and asked Zhang Jidao: "Then what should we do now, Niu Fu...... General Niu returned to Shaanxi County in the south, leaving us to defend Anyi, facing the strong pressure of the Xia army, if there are no reinforcements, I am only afraid of ......"

"For today's plan, hold Anyi steadily, continue to ask for help from Niu Fu, and ask for help from Chang'an! Hedong County is also a three-auxiliary barrier, if the Taishi learns about the current situation in Hedong, he will definitely not let the Xia army attack wantonly! Zhang Ji's tone was solemn, and for some reason, he felt a little unconfident.

......

In Chang'an, in the luxurious and magnificent Taishi's Mansion, Dong Zhuo was losing his temper: "Niu Fu, this idiot, a good Hedong, was beaten like this by him, and he was angry!"

"Come on, go! With a lonely sword, he went to Shaanxi County, relieved Niu of the auxiliary military rights, and escorted his chief Chang'an, and Xu Rong went to Shaanxi County to take over the army, Duan Xuan went out from Huayin to cooperate, and went north to repel the Xia army alone! Hedong must not be lost! Dong Zhuo, who was furious, ordered directly.

He has endured Niu Fu's "incompetence" for a long time, and Dong Zhuo, who is becoming more and more irritable, has little tolerance for Niu Fu losing his teacher and losing the city again. Hedong is his starting place, with deep feelings, coupled with the fact that Naisi is subordinate to the county, and the population is good for salt and iron, Dong Zhuo will certainly not give it up.

This time he made up his mind, even if he set off a "national war" with Xia Guo, he would not hesitate to do it.

"The lord is angry, General Niu, is it too anxious to deal with it. He has been in charge of the army for many years, and he hastily solved it, for fear of causing chaos! Li Ru hurriedly dissuaded. Today's Li Ru, his eye sockets are slightly sunken, and his hair has a lot of silver threads, in the past two years, Dong Zhuo has been free, but it is Li Ru who is so bitter.

Dong Zhuo was unscrupulous, and the upper and lower government affairs were actually handled by Li Ru in the back, and he tried his best to help Dong Zhuo maintain the rule of Si, Yong, and Liang. The pacification of the family, the collection of taxes, and the allocation of grain and grass all consumed a lot of Li Ru's energy. Although Wang Yun assisted, Dong Zhuo believed him, Li Ru was not very relieved, and he had to keep an eye on everything.

Dong Zhuo raised an army of nearly 100,000 people, and the number of people ate and chewed was huge, if it were not for Li Ru's best efforts to maintain, promote the people's livelihood in Guanzhong, and add the support of "Yiwu", how could he afford to raise Dong Zhuo's army in order to increase the dilapidated Sanfu land.

"Does he dare to disobey the orphan order and create a lonely rebellion!" Dong Zhuoyu was so angry that he directly caught Li Ru and scolded: "And you too, when the Xia army went south at the beginning, didn't you say that Niu Fu was there, and it was enough to deal with it?" What is the result now?"

"The difficulty of the Xia army to deal with is much to the surprise of the minister, it is the minister's negligence, and the minister originally thought that it was not the Xia army's ......."

"Difficult to deal with! What do the Xia soldiers care about me? What is more food and grass than me? What are the benefits of the city? Losing 5,000 soldiers, how much does it cost to be alone, but it can create 5,000 sharp soldiers again! Dong Zhuo said viciously.

Li Ru sighed when he heard this, and was silent. Seeing Li Ru's performance, Dong Zhuo's irritable voice stopped abruptly, and he also felt that his words were too serious, rubbed his bulging stomach with both hands, and said after being silent for a while: "It's lonely and anxious, the words are too much, don't blame Wenyou."

After another moment, Dong Zhuo asked, "According to Wen You's opinion, how should Lone Dang deal with it?"

Taking a breath, Li Ru settled down and said slowly: "Lord, Hedong should not be abandoned lightly, if you don't want to use Niu Fu, send someone to summon him, it's all right, it's too hard, but it is easy to cause trouble." Xu Rong is talented, use him as a handsome, and rectify the army of Shaanxi County, it should be safe. “

When Dong Zhuo heard this, he calmed down, and couldn't help nodding: "Okay, according to Wenyou's words, I will issue an edict tomorrow." You asked Xu Rong to prepare, and there was a lonely desire to transfer some troops from Chang'an to support. “

"In this way, Chang'an's troops will be weakened, whether the lord will consider it again!"

Dong Zhuo waved his hand: "It's okay, there are only Dong Min and Dong Huang who are in charge of Chang'an's military affairs, and there are Fengxian guards, so there is nothing to do." Now the court ministers, the flies and dogs, if they dare to move lightly, they will destroy him all over the house. Like Zhang Wen, who is a man, Lone pays them salaries, but secretly conspires against Lone and murders Lone, which is really not a son of man. If only there were more smart people like Wang Yun! In the end, Dong Zhuo couldn't help but sigh.

Stepping out of the Taishi Mansion, Li Ru's figure was much more stiff, and Dong Zhuo, who was more and more moody and arrogant, made him feel dangerous for the first time. Inexplicably, there was already a voice in his mind reminding him that although Dong Zhuo was still strong in the northwest, in fact, his foundation was becoming more and more unstable, the people were not attached, and he had no heirs, and his prospects were not good.

As his loyal dog, if something happens to Dong Zhuo, he is afraid that there will be no good end. I have to think of a way back, and suddenly, Liu Yuan's words flashed in Li Ru's mind many years ago: If you can't stay under Dong Zhuo's account in the future, you can come alone, and you will be safe!

Xia Guo, which can be used as one of the back roads, took heavy steps, and Li Ru returned home.

And in the Taishi Mansion, Dong Zhuo couldn't imagine that the strategist he relied on the most had a strange mind. The anger, under the service of several beautiful maids, dissipated a lot.

Before sunset, Dong Zhuo was undulating on a maid, spears going in and out, and after not many rounds, he was a little overwhelmed, and he was like a note. Lying on the woman, she took a few breaths, pinched her chin, the beauty's eyebrows were full of charm, and the party was moisturized, and it was even more full of extreme temptation, and sighed: "It's really beautiful and enchanting, no wonder Lu Bu will take a fancy to you!"

"Get dressed! Come with Lonely! Thinking of something, Dong Zhuo ordered the maid under him.

"No!"

Out of the inner room and into the lobby, Dong Zhuo shouted: "Fengxian!" Bongxian! “

"The end will be! What does the Master command? Lu Bu entered and replied in a deep voice.

"Hehe, it's not a big deal!" Dong Zhuo chuckled, pointed at the maid and said, "Gu knows that Fengxian likes this girl very much, so I will reward it to you, and later, you can take her home!"

Hearing this, Lu Bu looked up at the maid, who was well dressed, but the traces of the joy she had just had were too obvious, and she couldn't help but clench her fists.

"Fengxian, don't you want to?" Seeing that Lu Bu was silent, Dong Zhuo frowned and asked.

"The last general, Taishi Xie!" With a tight heart, Lu Bu knelt down and said "thank you".

When Lu Bu dared to have thoughts about his maid before, Dong Zhuo was furious and punished Lu Bu for his good life. Li Ru once persuaded him to reward his daughter to Lu Bu in order to accept his heart, but Dong Zhuo refused. Now, Dong Zhuo is tired of playing, and suddenly remembered this matter, so Fang made this decision and consciously showed favor to him, and Lu Bu would be grateful.

It's just that Lu Bu at this time, will he still appreciate it?
