Xu Rong, as a famous general at the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty and the beginning of the year, can fight well and have been in war for a long time, and of course has his own pride as a generation of famous generals. There is absolutely no problem with letting him go out to the army independently, even if he makes a military order, he will be killed if he wins, there is no problem, but if he wants to accompany the prince to study, he can't be the master, he can only be used as an assistant, and he can't count when he speaks, and it is estimated that there is really no drama.

Who knows what tricks this little boy will make on the battlefield and what tricks he will play.

The most taboo on the battlefield is the boss's idiocy and inconsistent orders.

As the saying goes, one general is incompetent, and the three armies are exhausted!

You don't see the battle of Qin and Zhao Changping back then, Zhao Kuo, the idiot commander of Zhao State who can only talk on paper, was stunned to let Zhao State's 400,000 people pay the price for his idiotic behavior, and was finally defeated by Bai Qi, a famous general of Qin State, and the 400,000 elites of Zhao State were all killed by Bai Qi, and since then, Zhao State's vitality has been greatly damaged, and he can no longer confront Qin State, and was finally destroyed by Qin State. And Zhao Kuo himself has become a laughing stock for the ages, and has been ridiculed for thousands of years. A typical example of a negative textbook.

What about Lu Bu? As the last year of the Eastern Han Dynasty, the first military general in the world during the Three Kingdoms period, he fought against the armies of the Xiongnu, Xianbei, Qiang and other ethnic minorities in Bingzhou for a long time. That is naturally even more eye-catching, arrogant, and ambitious. Let the handsome guy Lu assist Dong Bai, the "prince", to send troops, it is absolutely impossible and hopeless.

Besides, even if Lu Bu can really put down his body to assist his righteous brother, but Lu Bu will definitely lead Lu Bu's own elite Bingzhou army to fight in the future, and the Bingzhou army is now obeying Lu Bu's orders, Dong Zhuo's baby son will definitely not be able to command Lu Bu, nor can he command Lu Bu's Bingzhou army.

If a commander can't command his own troops, then what's the point of what the commander is doing?

If this Dong Zhuo really handed over his precious son to Lu Bu to assist, wouldn't that be ugly for his son? At that time, his son may suffer a big loss on the battlefield, although there is Lu Bu, a peerless flying general, there is absolutely no problem with safety. But his precious son suffered a loss on the battlefield, or even a defeat, and he will definitely resent himself when the time comes.

The only thing that makes Dong Zhuo happy is that Li Dao is more upright and willing to assist his son, a military almost idiot who can only talk on paper and a stupid son who can play a few sets of spears. This Li Dao is worthy of being his confidant, and it is in vain that he has trusted him, promoted him, and taken care of him so much for so many years.

Fortunately, Comrade Li Dao was more knowledgeable and offered to be an assistant to his precious son. took the initiative to ask to do this kind of dirty work of accompanying the prince to study, otherwise Dong Zhuo could only take the initiative to propose a candidate, and when the time came, the person who was selected looked embarrassed and was not very willing. In that case, Dong Zhuomian would be even more unspeakable.

In fact, Li Dao also has his own plans in his heart, after all, the old lady is already in his sixties, and he is all in the age of sixties. Maybe one day he will be immortal, and then he will definitely have to be Dong Gongzi to take over and continue to work. Although Lu Bu is a righteous son, and the exclusivity of the Xiliang line is very strong, it is estimated that it is difficult to accept.

Besides, unless Dong Zhuo is old and confused, he will hand over his inheritance to his righteous son, not to his own son. Looking at the current situation, Li Dao is almost certain that this is his father-in-law, and he wants to train a successor. It's not as quick as to put down your body and step forward to build a good relationship.

In fact, everyone present thought a lot like Li Dao, after all, Li Ru's words were obvious. This was something Dong Zhuo didn't expect. Most of the people here have almost no dissatisfaction with the approach of Dong Taiwei and his son, after all, in their current era, it is natural for a son to inherit his father's business, and even the emperor can't find fault with it.

However, if the son can't inherit Lao Tzu's career, he will be spurned. And in history, it is precisely because Dong Zhuo has no son, the Xiliang Army, the big business, and the big cake has no master to inherit, and the generals below are no longer convinced by each other, full of contradictions, and infighting, and they can't choose a leader who can convince the public, so they can lead the entire Xiliang Army to be leaderless and finally destroyed.

Who would have thought that this qiē was all Dong Shouye, a stunned man, who made his own decisions and acted recklessly?

The key is that Li Ru is too cooperative, Dong Shouye has a good brother-in-law?

Li Ru deserves to be a good brother-in-law in China, what a brother-in-law who takes care of himself!

Seeing that Li Dao wanted to assist his son, Dong Zhuo thought to himself, nominally Dong Bai led the army, but in fact, he would put the power in the hands of Li Dao.

So, Dong Zhuo said some inconsequential things again, and wanted to discuss with his son-in-law Li Ru and younger brother Dong Min about sending troops again, and then let everyone disperse. just let his younger brother Dong Min and son-in-law Li Ru stay. Dong Shouye saw that Dong Zhuo didn't leave him, and it was estimated that they would definitely have to discuss, so he returned to his courtyard.

Seeing that everyone had already left, Dong Zhuo said to Li Ru: "Wen You, today you are messing around, I don't know how thick the sky is, and you ask to send troops to suppress the rebellion of the Baibo Army, why do you speak for that stupid boy and encourage him to send troops, isn't this adding to the chaos?" ”

When Li Ru heard this, he smiled, and then said slowly: "Taiwei, the son of Shouye is seventeen years old, and he should have experienced experience." If the captain is worried about whether Childe can win, or is worried about Childe's safety, then send more elite soldiers and strong generals. ”

At this time, Dong Min also said: "The second brother (the author has consulted a variety of historical materials, it is almost certain that Dong Zhuo should have a brother named Dong Zhi, but he died relatively early, so Dong Zhuo is defined as the second brother in the family) is sixty years old, although the spring and autumn are prosperous, but it is time to consider what is behind him." Our huge foundation will still be handed over to Shouye in the future. Could it be that the second brother really disregarded his own relatives and bloodline, and really wanted to hand over his inheritance to the so-called righteous son? I was the first to say no. ”

Hearing Dong Min's words, Dong Zhuo and Li Ru both nodded yes. If someone else told Dong Zhuo that he was over sixty years old and asked him to think about what would happen after he died, according to Dong Zhuo's character, he would definitely suspect that the other party had different intentions, and he would definitely be killed by Dong Zhuo. The person who said this today was his own brother, and Dong Zhuo naturally did not have the slightest doubt.

Dong Zhuo said again: "Wen You, although our foundation will be handed over to Shouye this stinky boy in the future, but he is leading the troops to fight without experience now, is it too risky." ”

At this time, Dong Min said again: "Second brother, did you know that you had rich experience and could win every battle when you led the troops into battle for the first time?" Isn't it the same that you have to constantly hone yourself on the battlefield in order to win all battles in the end? Now this kid is still young, he can withstand the toss, he is crawling on the battlefield, and he will grow faster in the future, so he will take over our family business faster. After making certain achievements, we will pave the way for him in the future, and we will be able to inherit our foundation smoothly in the future. Besides, our current family background is to make it unfavorable for Shouye to enter the army, and if we fail once or twice, we can afford to lose some people and horses. As long as Shouye can learn from it in the future, grow up, and be able to stand alone, this loss is still worth it. ”

Although Dong Min's words made Dong Zhuo a little unhappy, he was helpless, first, he was his younger brother, and secondly, he was telling the truth.

At this time, Li Ru also echoed and said: "Father-in-law, what the third uncle said is very reasonable, as the saying goes: jade is not sharpened, so let Shouye experience and experience the good things as soon as possible." Besides, we are now tentatively decided on Luoyang, although no one dares to oppose it for a while, but after a long time, the Kwantung princes will definitely have different intentions. When the time comes, the shape is grim and the wind and clouds are changing. It must be the resumption of war, just take advantage of the current situation to be relatively stable, let Shouye grow rapidly, even if there are changes in the future, Shouye will also have the power to protect itself in the future. ”

Dong Zhuo listened to Li Ru's words and couldn't help nodding yes.

Then Li Ru said: "Father-in-law, in the future, when Shouye grows up, my father-in-law will control the court and the central government, and Shouye will lead heavy troops outside, and the father and son will echo inside and outside, support each other, and help each other in the same boat." In the future, it is not impossible to sweep away a lot of anti-thieves and create another situation. Please also ask your father-in-law to think about it. ”

Dong Zhuo's eyes lit up when he heard Li Ru's words, after so many years of ups and downs, he could naturally hear what the other situation in his mouth was implied by.

I only heard Dong Zhuo say again: "Then this matter is settled, you two don't tell the stinky boy who kept the business of today's conversation." ”

Dong Min and Li Ru nodded their heads again and again.

So he discussed specific matters with the two. Now Dong Zhuo's main forces are in the Beijing Division, Xiliang, Ma Teng and Han Sui have ambiguous attitudes, and they also need a large number of troops to guard against. With Dong Zhuo's current situation, if he wants to control the government steadily, he can't do it without a strong army.

Now there are many people who oppose Dong Zhuo in the DPRK and China, and although they have been killed several times, the number of people who oppose Dong Zhuo has not decreased. Therefore, he can't spare too many troops for Dong Shouye, but Hedong, as Dong Zhuo's starting place, must not give up.

The combat effectiveness of the White Polish Army is also very strong. If you send a few thousand soldiers and horses, it is estimated that it will not help.

After repeated discussions between Dong Zhuo and the two, it was decided to send 10,000 troops. Among them, 4,000 were the Grizzly Army, the main force of Xiliang, and another 6,000 were selected from the previous He Jin's generals (that is, the Xiyuan Army).

For this decision, Li Ru spoke out against it, only to hear him say: "At present, our army is surrounded by constant threats, the members of the Xiyuan Army are complex, it is difficult to distinguish between the enemy and me, and there are too few descendants to ensure the safety of the son, and some time ago the son fell from the horse, and there were many suspicions, and later I found out that after this incident, the second slave of the child's little guy was nowhere to be found, but later found the body of the little guy on the mountain near the east of the city. ”

Dong Zhuo didn't expect this to happen, and instructed Li Ru to investigate the suspicions about his baby son falling off the horse carefully and secretly.

immediately agreed with Li Ru's statement, so it was decided that 8,000 of the 10,000 troops were the elite of the Grizzly Army, and another 2,000 Xiyuan troops were arranged as auxiliaries.
