Li Meng fell to his knees, his limbs trembled slightly, as one of Dong Zhuo's fangs, Li Meng and Wang Fang's names were a few points louder than most wolf fangs.
And this soul detaineer, who was known for his ruthlessness and viciousness, was terrifyingly humble in front of Dong Zhuo, trembling and kneeling on the ground, waiting for the judgment from Dong Zhuo.
Everyone in the hall could clearly feel the monstrous killing intent exuded by Dong Zhuo, and the chill exuded by those sharp eyes was like millions of invisible arrows shuttling, which made everyone in the hall feel cold.
Except for Li Ru, the rest of the people were short of breath, and they only felt that their chests were suffocated.
Li Ru sighed softly, took a step forward, and said in a deep voice: "Father-in-law, the matter has come to this, we must start preparing something." ”
Dong Zhuo's eyes were gloomy, he glanced at Li Ru, but he didn't say anything, he sat on the Taishi chair, and said in a low tone: "Wen You, what do you think of this matter?" ”
Li Meng knelt like this, Dong Zhuo didn't mean to let him get up at all, and knelt on the ground, but Li Meng's heart was much more relaxed, at least, it was much better than becoming the object of Dong Zhuo's discouragement.
For so many years, there have been many generals who have died under Dong Zhuo in a daze, and there is a lot of past, and Li Meng doesn't want to follow in the footsteps.
After getting this news, Li Ru could still walk, his steps were light, less than five steps away from Dong Zhuo, and after a little hesitation, he turned around and said: "This news came so suddenly, it was not clear, but it made the son-in-law a little suspicious." ”
"Huh?"
Dong Zhuo raised his eyebrows slightly, and said in a deep voice: "Why is it not clear?" ”
"First, which one of the spies came back?" Li Ru glanced at Li Meng, who was kneeling on the ground. The tone was slightly condensed: "This detail is very important. ”
Dong Zhuo saw this. glared at Li Meng on the ground. He said in a rough voice, "Get up and speak." ”
When Li Meng heard this, he got up obediently and stood with a bow.
Li Ru looked at Li Meng and asked, "Which wolf's tooth ambush probe came from when the news came?" ”
Li Meng's thoughts turned slightly, and he hurriedly responded: "Is it from the detectives who were placed next to Wen Hou?" ”
"Huh?" Li Ru's eyes flashed with a glimmer of essence and looked at Dong Zhuo.
Dong Zhuo also looked thoughtful, looked at Li Ru below meaningfully, and said slowly: "You mean." Is there moisture in this piece of information? ”
"Yes."
Li Ru nodded without hesitation and said: "If a link around Lu Bu goes wrong and is used by others, then this matter is a trap, or something else." ”
Dong Zhuo's face was cloudy when he heard this, and he suddenly said coldly: "Could it be that Lu Bu has already rebelled?" ”
Dong Zhuo is worthy of a generation of heroes, but he has gradually been corrupted by a luxurious life, but he is still wise.
Li Ru stroked his beard and muttered, "There is at least the possibility of more than five layers. ”
Dong Zhuo's eyes became more and more gloomy, as if he thought of something. His eyes were full of murderous intent and he said: "If this is the case, my father will kill Lu Bu's child." ”
"For the sake of the present. You also need to confirm the accuracy of this message first. Li Ru said in a deep voice.
"Go look it up."
Dong Zhuo glanced at Li Meng and said, "Give up all the ambush spies around Lu Bu and send people from Chang'an, two days, I will only give you two days." ”
"Whoa."
When Li Meng heard this, he felt bitter in his heart, it would take a long time to go back and forth from Chang'an to Bingzhou, two days, unless it was day and night, I am afraid that it would not even take more than one or two days to go back and forth, and this does not include the time it takes to go back and forth for other things.
Even so, Li Meng could only grit his teeth and come down, at this time, did he dare to say no? Don't dare, definitely don't dare, unless he doesn't want to die.
As if seeing through Li Meng's thoughts, Dong Zhuo's eyes flashed with a deep groan, and then he said: "Take my warrant and go to the shadow to find the poisonous scorpion, they will assist you." ”
When Li Meng heard this, his spirits perked.
Of course, he knew about the existence of poisonous scorpions.
As one of the few commanders of the wolf fang, Li Meng can undoubtedly be regarded as Dong Zhuo's henchman, and he naturally knows more about some of Dong Zhuo's secrets than outsiders, and the poisonous scorpion is precisely one of them.
Wolf Tooth is an intelligence organization, the structure was founded by Jia Xu, and Li Meng and Wang Fang are all responsible for running, and in recent years, its reputation is indeed not bad.
Especially in the several major changes in Luoyang and Chang'an, there are wolf fangs infested, and after the wolf rides, there are other mysterious colors flashing.
And the poisonous scorpion is one of Dong Zhuo's power centers.
Its composition is somewhat complex.
It has not been established for a long time, and it is about the past few years that Dong Zhuo was forced to evacuate from Luoyang to Chang'an, but the speed of development has been extremely rapid.
On the streets of Chang'an, there are a mixture of fish and dragons, and all kinds of rivers and lakes are full of potential, up to the major rivers and lakes, down to the green-skinned scoundrels, tens of thousands, and the poisonous scorpion is a force of the rivers and lakes supported by Dong Zhuo, the number of people is not much, compared to the so-called gate faction that moves hundreds of thousands, the number of poisonous scorpions is really nothing, it's just that, after several years of hard work and annexation, the green skin organization that could only be abducted and deceived between the alleys has developed into a behemoth-like underground organization.
Today, the three underground giants in Chang'an City are headed by poisonous scorpions, and their momentum is extremely huge.
What made Li Meng feel refreshed was not the influence of the poisonous scorpion in Chang'an City, but a certain innate characteristic of this organization.
And this special almost innate advantage is what Li Meng values.
With the elite intelligence backbone cultivated by the wolf's fangs, supplemented by poisonous snakes, the combination of the two can definitely get a substantial improvement in efficiency.
Efficiency is the dilemma that Li Meng is currently facing, because he does not have much time, only two days.
"Go ahead." Dong Zhuo glanced at Li Meng lightly, exuding a domineering aura that was not angry and arrogant.
Li Meng left slowly, dragging the token given by Dong Zhuo in his hand, and went straight to the West City of Chang'an, where the shadow lane was located.
After Li Meng left, Dong Zhuoping retreated from the hall with more than a dozen generals sitting on standby, and all of a sudden, only he and Li Ru's two sons-in-law remained.
"Father-in-law, you may have to prepare for the worst." Li Ru hesitated for a moment, but finally spoke.
When Dong Zhuo heard this, he stared at Li Ru, who had a thin face, and sighed: "Do you even think that your father is already in decline?" ”
"No" Li Ru shook his head, his eyes were shining, he looked directly at Dong Zhuo, and said in a deep voice: "Father-in-law has not yet reached the point of exhaustion. ”
Dong Zhuo frowned slightly, and said in a low voice: "Then what is the worst plan you are talking about?" ”
Li Ru's eyes flashed with a hint of coldness, and he said gloomily: "Destroy Guanzhong and withdraw to Liangzhou with the puppet little emperor." ”
Dong Zhuo's expression was shocked, looking at Li Ru's cold eyes, without the slightest suspicion that Li Ru was joking.
Back then, it was Li Ru who offered the plan to destroy Luoyang, so Luoyang was reduced to a ruin overnight, and a few years later, when similar words came out of Li Ru's mouth, the shock in Dong Zhuo's heart was not much weaker than back then.
Back then, after a fire burned Luoyang, it was not only as simple as destroying a city, but also pushing Dong Zhuo to the forefront, and all the soldiers in the world vomited blood and scolded Dong Zhuo, and what created all this was just Li Ru's words.
And now, when this sentence comes out of Li Ru's mouth again, the city of Chang'an, or the rich land of Guanzhong, may usher in a new wave of disasters.
Dong Zhuo's face changed, his chest was heaving, and his eyes were cloudy.
"If it is not as expected by the son-in-law, once the news of the defeat of our army and the annexation of the state spreads, the princes of all walks of life will definitely be moved, especially Yuan Shang will definitely take advantage of the victory to pursue, and Chang'an will definitely become a new battlefield for all parties." Li Ru said in a slightly deep tone.
When Dong Zhuo heard this, his eyes were cold and silent.
Seeing Dong Zhuo's silence, Li Ru continued again: "The land of Guanzhong, although it is the only way to seek the world, for our army, it is inevitable that there is some unadaptability, after all, the foundation of our army is in Liangzhou, and withdrawing from Guanzhong is just starting all over again, and starting over does not mean that there is no chance to make a comeback, only after our army is strong again, not only can we advance into the hinterland of the Central Plains again, but we can also sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight, not broken or standing, only rebirth in the ruins is the prerequisite for your father-in-law to become strong again." ”
"Do you really have to give up all these years of hard work?" Dong Zhuo sighed faintly.
"Father-in-law, you should continue to suffer from it." Li Ru shook his head and said.
"Let me think about this matter again."
"But," Li Ru wanted to say something more.
was interrupted by Dong Zhuo: "This matter will be considered by my father." ”
"Okay." Seeing this, Li Ru sighed in his heart.
Although Li Ru was a little disappointed, he was not surprised, this matter was very important, Dong Zhuo needed time to think about it, but it was normal for people.
"Then the son-in-law withdrew first." Li Ru said.
"Hmm." Dong Zhuo nodded, suddenly seemed to remember something, and asked, "Is there any news from Niu Fu?" ”
Li Ru shook his head and responded, "No." ”
"Did something happen too?" Dong Zhuo's brows tightened.
When Li Ru heard this, he said in a deep voice: "The son-in-law will send someone to get in touch with Niu Fu." ”
Dong Zhuo nodded slightly, but he didn't say anything, he was very relieved about Niu Fu.
Seeing that Dong Zhuo didn't speak again, Li Ru bowed down and retreated, leaving him alone in the magnificent hall. (To be continued......)
