Chapter 213: Dong Zhuo's Dynamics
At the same time, thousands of miles away in Chang'an City. After a period of cultivation, Dong Zhuo has returned to Chang'an for more than a month. As for this, Xu Rong let him be stationed in Rongyang, after all, this place is of great significance to Dong Zhuo, and he feels that there is no room for loss.
As for Hangu Pass, which was already somewhat dilapidated and was directly abandoned by Liu Yao, Dong Zhuo continued to send 10,000 troops to garrison it. There are two barriers, Hangu Pass and Rongyang. This eastern barrier can be regarded as insurance. At the same time, Dong Zhuo sent Niu Fu to continue to garrison Jincheng, and the horses of Liangzhou each occupied half of Liangzhou, and fought against each other.
And after Dong Zhuo returned to Chang'an, he immediately released all the spies and went to collect intelligence. And these days, Dong Zhuo has been running away except for running away, and he can't even care about himself, let alone care about the allies behind him. And after arriving in Chang'an, this Dong Zhuo was also busy settling the military horses and regaining control of the somewhat dilapidated Chang'an, and he had no chance to learn other news. Therefore, it can be said that the news is blocked.
The princes of the allies behind him, as well as Ma Teng, who was eyeing him in Liangzhou, had already betrayed his Lu Bu, and of course, Liu Yao, who beat himself to the ground, this is what he wants to know the most. After all, Liu Yao has left an indelible shadow in his heart.
However, unlike in history, after Dong Zhuo came to the scene, he didn't have the idea of casting a palace in Yiwu for fun. I don't know if Lu Dao was scared because he was beaten by Liu Yao, and he didn't react for a while. Or is it because all the grain financial reports in his hands were taken away by Liu Yao, and there is no extra money for him to do such a thing.
"Father-in-law!!" Just when Dong Zhuo was in a hurry, a voice like heaven came into Dong Zhuo's ears. Don't think about it. Naturally, it is Dong Zhuo's henchman and son-in-law Li Ru. This Li Ru was sent by him to investigate and collect information.
"Son-in-law, you are finally back, tell me quickly, what is the situation now, what about the allies now, and Na Ma Teng, by the way. By the way, there is also that Liu Yao. Dong Zhuo cried out with some excitement as soon as he saw Li Ru's appearance, but it was precisely because of this. On the contrary, he was a little incoherent.
Li Ru walked over with a straight face, and before he could speak, this Dong Zhuo was not good at guiding the news, seeing this, Dong Zhuo asked anxiously, "Virtuous son-in-law." Isn't it bad news again? ”
"Go to Lord E, there's a lot of good news, but there's also a lot of bad news, which one do you want to listen to first?" Li Ru said.
Dong Zhuo heard this, and immediately said angrily: "Virtuous son-in-law, you don't know how to say that I don't like to beat around the bush, tell me everything!" ”
"Wait a minute!!" Before he could speak, Dong Zhuo called out and thought for a while. A little impatiently said, "Let's talk about the good news first, I have heard too much bad news these days." I don't want to hear it anymore. ”
Li Ru listened to the look that I had already knew, and said, "Father-in-law, the good news is that this allied army will not catch up, and Liu Yao will definitely not catch up again." ”
Dong Zhuo was overjoyed when he heard this, grabbed Li Ru, and asked anxiously, "Son-in-law, tell me quickly, what is going on, is it that Liu Yao and the allies are fighting, if this is the case, it will be better, it is best for both of them to lose both, so that I can rest easy." ”
Li Ru smiled bitterly in his heart when he heard this, this kind of thing could never happen to Liu Yao, although he didn't have much communication with Liu Yao, but with his achievements over the years, Li Ru could completely judge that Liu Yao must have a strategist around him who was definitely not inferior to himself. With such a capable person next to him, how could he be stupid to confront the allies.
"Not really, but according to the news from Tanma. This allied army has been disbanded, it seems that all those civil and military officials were sent back to Luoyang by Liu Yao. It led to discord between the allies, and now there is a conflict, that Chen Liutaishou Qiao Mao was killed by Liu Dai, the assassin of Yanzhou, and now all the princes have left Luoyang and returned to their respective territories. Li Ru said slowly.
"Really!!" Dong Zhuo suddenly cried out with joy when he heard this. Li Ru nodded and said that Dong Zhuo had not heard him wrong.
"Good!! Die well, die well, it's really happy, haha!!ha Dong Zhuo suddenly laughed when he heard this. For these princes, he is eager to peel the skin, cramp, and eat the flesh. Now there is no death, but it is not bad to be able to kill and injure one, and the most important thing is that these princes have fallen out, which means that they don't have to worry about the threat of this alliance, and they can rest easy.
"Huh!!" Immediately, Dong Zhuo stopped laughing, because he seemed to remember what Li Ru said just now, and there was no Liu Yao after that, and suddenly Dong Zhuo's face darkened again, and he asked a little nervously and worriedly, "So where is Liu Yao now, did he go to Luoyang with those hundred officials?" ”
Li Ru actually showed an unprecedented smile when he heard this, you must know that even when he said good news before, it was with a straight face.
"Father-in-law, this is the out-and-out good news, according to the report from the spies, Liu Yao really wanted to return to Luoyang with the officials, but there was news halfway through, that Karasuma used the strength of the whole clan to attack Liaodong, I'm afraid that Liu Yao is in trouble now." Li Ru Dalu said with a smile.
For them, as long as Liu Yao has no time to attack him first, it will be the best news, so that they can have enough time to cultivate and develop, and then they can have the strength to dominate the world.
And when Dong Zhuo heard this, he suddenly laughed madly: "Okay, good!" This Liu Yao'er chased me Dong Zhuo so embarrassed, it was really hateful. It's good now, it's his turn to be in big trouble, it's best to let the Karasuma people capture Liaodong, care about Liaodong as a pedal, and take down the entire Youzhou. When the time comes, I will lose my nest, I will see what Liu Yao still has the ability to do against me, I can also have a beating of the water dog, hahaha. ”
Dong Zhuo couldn't stop laughing after hearing this, if he knew the word "cool", I am afraid he would shout three times.
Li Ru looked at Dong Zhuo's wild laughter and couldn't help but smile bitterly three times. He naturally knew that this could not happen. What kind of ability can the Karasuma people have, they were not beaten by Liu Yao before. What's the use of having a lot of people, no matter how many people there are in Karasuma, they don't know how to use their brains. In front of Liu Yao's top strategists, they are just ants, and they can be destroyed with a flip.
Therefore, these Ukasuma people are at most just giving Liu Yao some trouble, delaying him for a while and not letting him attack him with free hands. As for capturing Youzhou, hehe, it's ridiculous, it's good not to be taken down by Liu Yao in turn.
Besides, this is not the most important thing, the most important thing is another bad news, even if Liu Yaozheng loses Youzhou, he will not become a lost dog.
Li Ru didn't bother Dong Zhuo where he was laughing wildly, or venting, after all, when Dong Zhuo was originally in Luoyang, it was not an exaggeration to say that the whole person was above 10,000 people, or the real 10,000 people. , even if it wasn't when he was in Luoyang, he was originally in his hometown, or when he was the Taishou of Hedong, it was a word-and-say existence, and he had never been bullied.
But in the past few days, he was first defeated by the allies, fled from Luoyang, and then was ambushed by Liu Yao at Hangu Pass, and all the officials, money and food were lost, and more than 100,000 horses were left behind. What a grievance. However, these days, he has been in tension, and these grievances are also hidden in Dong Zhuo's heart, Dong Zhuo can't vent at all, if it's not good, then it may collapse, and now it's really a good opportunity.
After about half a cup of tea, Dong Zhuo finally stopped, panting heavily. Although Dong Zhuo used to be brave and good at fighting, but the luxurious life of these years has long buried his ambitions, and at the same time, his martial arts have been wasted, and what exists now is just a pile of fat meat.
