Chapter 416: Liangzhou Battlefield
Liangzhou, fifty miles outside Jincheng, has already built countless camp tents here, Dong Zhuo and Li Ru personally led 200,000 troops stationed here. As for the Huguan Pass on the other side, it was led by Dong Zhuo's henchmen Li Dao and Xu Rong who personally led an army of 200,000 Chen soldiers here.
As for the reason why Dong Zhuo himself is in Liangzhou, it is because in his Dong Zhuo's heart, the importance of Liangzhou is far more important than that of Liangzhou. After all, this Liangzhou is still his Dong Zhuo's original lair. He Dong Zhuo has been in operation in Liangzhou for a long time, and he is much more familiar with it, and it is easier to attack.
In the middle of Dong Zhuo's military camp, the largest and most luxurious camp tent, obviously, this is naturally his Dong Zhuo's camp tent. And at this moment, it was noon, and Dong Zhuo was asleep in his tent at noon, snoring.
At this moment, the curtain of Dong Zhuo's tent was lifted, and a figure walked in, and when he saw Dong Zhuo sleeping like a pig, he sighed helplessly. can quietly approach the sleeping Dong Zhuo like this, naturally Li Ru is the only one
"Father-in-law, father-in-law!" Li Ru walked up to Dong Zhuo and called softly.
It didn't take long for Dong Zhuo to wake up a little annoyed, and he just wanted to get angry, but when he saw that it was Li Ru, the original anger on his face suddenly dissipated, and he asked anxiously, "Son-in-law, how is it, there is movement on the other two sides." ”
Li Ru smiled and said, "Don't worry, father-in-law, the two kings of Xianbei, Kirbineng and Bugendu, each sent 250,000 troops to attack Bingzhou and Youzhou respectively. The army of 500,000 is enough for Liu Yao to eat a pot. And Yuan Shao has also sent 300,000 troops to attack Youzhou, plus our 400,000 army, a total of 1.2 million troops. Then Liu Yao is an idiot, obviously there are so many people, and there are only so many soldiers and horses under his hands, and the maximum number of troops that can be mobilized is five or six hundred thousand, twice the number of troops, and he Liu Yao still has to divide the troops to see how he responds this time. ”
"Good!" Dong Zhuo slapped his thigh. Excitedly stood up and shouted excitedly. But the next moment, his originally excited face instantly became angry, and he gritted his teeth and shouted, "That hateful Kirby Neng." He actually asked me for a million stone grain and grass before he was willing to send troops. It's disgusting. ”
Li Ru also smiled bitterly when he heard it. That's a lot of grain and grass in one million stones. You must know that he, Dong Zhuoke, is not as good as Liu Yao, and has so much territory. Over the years, he Dong Zhuo has been violently expropriating and frugal, making the people miserable. Only then did three million stone grains and grass be saved. This time he went to a third of the way, no wonder he Dong Zhuo was so angry.
"Father-in-law doesn't have to be so angry. This reluctant child can't trap a wolf. These Xianbei people are the lords who do not see rabbits and do not scatter eagles. If they don't give them benefits, how can they send troops? Li Ru said lightly. However, it was obvious that Dong Zhuo's face was naturally getting more and more ugly.
Seeing this, Li Ru didn't care, and continued, "But my father-in-law, please rest assured, although this Xianbei man sent 500,000 troops this time, it can be seen that it is inevitable to win Youzhou and the state." We can't help but be impressed when we describe the richness of Youzhou to them. Therefore, they must have attacked with all their might. And Liu Yao's ability, father-in-law, you also know. Even if the Xianbei man can win, it must be a heavy loss. When the time comes, we will be caught off guard by killing him. Won't everything come back then? ”
When Dong Zhuo heard this, his face really improved. Nodding in satisfaction. He knew very well what Li Ru meant, this is purely black eating black, when the time comes, everything will be his own, and he will not suffer at all. And as long as that Xianbei breaks through Liu Yao's territory, those Xianbei people will plunder at most, and then Liu Yao's territory will be completely their own.
"Virtuous son-in-law, then what should we do next, although this Ma Teng Liangzhou only has 100,000 soldiers and horses, but it is cowering in the city, and it is not so easy to take Liangzhou." Dong Zhuo exclaimed a little depressedly.
Since getting the news that Dong Zhuo was stationed in Liangzhou, before Liu Yao's order arrived, Cheng Yu had already ordered to be on guard, with Jincheng as the center, 50,000 soldiers and horses were stationed, and the rest of the two cities connected with Jincheng were also garrisoned with 20,000 troops, and the three cities were connected in a line, like a turtle shell, so that Dong Zhuo had no way to speak. However, these three cities alone have already garrisoned 90,000 soldiers and horses, which means that the rear of Liangzhou is very empty at this moment, if the Xianbei people attack the rear of Liangzhou, I am afraid that it will not take half a day to lose.
However, it is obvious that there is still this Ma Chao in the rear of Liangzhou, since Liu Yao has already decided so, Cheng Yu naturally has confidence in him, so he will make such a posture to face Dong Zhuo.
Li Ru frowned when he heard this, and said lightly, "Father-in-law, the most difficult person in Liangzhou to deal with is not Ma Teng, but someone else." ”
"Huh?" Dong Zhuo was also interested when he heard this, this Ma Teng was also his old neighbor, and he still knew how much ability he had, but the person who was more difficult to deal with than him Ma Teng couldn't help but make Dong Zhuo a little dignified.
Li Ru sighed helplessly in his heart, this Dong Zhuo didn't care about anything, he really had enough.
"Although this Liangzhou assassin is Ma Teng, he Ma Teng is just a puppet, and he is just a soldier, don't worry, I can make him never turn over. However, the real affairs of Liangzhou are all in the hands of a person named Cheng Yu, who is our biggest opponent. Li Ru said with some solemnity.
"Cheng Yu, who is this, why have you never heard of it?" Dong Zhuo asked suspiciously.
"Cheng Yu, the word Zhongde, a native of Dongjun, this person is old and heavy, and he has won Liu Yao's trust, so he is in control of the overall situation of Liangzhou. It's just that this person has always been very low-key, so he is not known. Otherwise, how could a pig brain like Ma Teng put up such a position. This person is not easy to deal with. Li Ru said with a frown. To be honest, he Li Ru didn't know much about Cheng Yu, but he knew that Cheng Yu was not easy to deal with based on his feelings. After all, the more mysterious it is, the more worrying it is.
"Oh, there are still such characters in this Liangzhou, who can make you pay so much attention to your son-in-law." Dong Zhuo exclaimed in surprise. In his heart, this Li Ru is an omnipotent being, and now that he has met a nobody, he will attach so much importance to it, which really makes Dong Zhuo's heart tremble.
"Father-in-law, don't worry, anyway, I didn't plan to focus on Liangzhou." Li Ru smiled wickedly. (To be continued......)
