By the time Dong Zhuo returned to the army's garrison, he had already visited several army garrisons and talked with the local guards who had led the troops.

It will continue tomorrow, and Dong Zhuo will not stop this seemingly useless move if he doesn't visit all these people. The reason why he chose to visit by himself was that if he visited by himself, he could get more information, and he could talk to those Taishou and try out some of their inner thoughts.

If you let Li Ru or someone else go, you won't be able to achieve this effect. At least it's not easy to see these first-army commanders. Even if we met, it was only a matter of a few minutes.

He didn't want to find allies, and what he was doing didn't need allies, only enemies.

Dong Zhuo knew very well what kind of choice others would make if they knew what he was thinking in his heart and what plan he had. I'm afraid that if I just told him well, the next moment after he leaves, I will immediately repeat what he said to other people's ears, and then he will become a traitor.

It's a pity that this group of people still clings to that ridiculous loyalty, not knowing that this dynasty has decayed and is no longer as powerful as they thought it would be. Although some people may have experience, the experience will certainly not be as profound as his.

Dong Zhuo walked into the tent of the Chinese military camp, sat on the handsome seat, picked up the bowl full of water and drank it with a gulp.

said that he was thirsty, and it took him a lot of saliva to talk about that kind of person, climbing or something. The longer it drags on, the more information you get. Although he had to talk nonsense with others, Li Ru and Hua Xiong with him didn't just follow him and protect him.

When he was talking to the commanders of the armies from all over the country, they would leave the camp for a short time for various reasons, and that time they would go to gather information. In addition, for various reasons, he himself would move the place of conversation outside the tent of the Chinese army, and he saw more things at that time.

It's just a look, and a look at it won't make people catch any specific handles. And just looking at it, a lot of times, you can see a lot of things coming out. At least, from the momentum and state of those ordinary soldiers in an army, it can also reflect the problems of an army, if it is more detailed, what you see, there will be more problems you perceive.

Among these people today, the most difficult opponent is Qin Jie. Dong Zhuo could feel this, in his conversation with Qin Jie, Qin Jie showed that he was not leaking, not only was he testing Qin Jie, Qin Jie was also testing him sometimes.

The tiredness he felt now was more accumulated from Qin Jie, and the subsequent visits made Dong Zhuo feel a little embarrassed now. Including Qin Jie's last glance, the glance of Qin Jie that he inadvertently turned around to see, the moment their eyes came into contact after a distance, it was the most profound scene in Dong Zhuo's memory.

After contact with Qin Jie, coupled with Qin Jie's record in Nanyang in the Yellow Turban Rebellion, Dong Zhuo had already raised the threat level of Nanyang Taishou a lot in his heart. If he can't find a way to get him out of Luoyang City, then before his plan begins, he must get rid of this person as soon as possible.

Dong Zhuo has already made up his mind, but there is one thing he has to do before this, that is, to try to see if he can win over this is not done casually, first of all, it is impossible for Qin Jie to be won over by him, which Dong Zhuo is extremely convinced. Secondly, it is to see if there are any important people under Qin Jie's command that can be co-opted, so that as long as Qin Jie is killed, then the person he has attracted can also be logically promoted, and he can smoothly bring the Nanyang army that came to Luoyang City this time into control.

It is said that Dong Zhuo was a little unwilling, if he couldn't bring all the troops over, then the attack on the road, his enemies would definitely not be able to eat and walk. He doesn't have to be so secretive and look ahead, but many things have become extraordinarily simple.

But things are not as simple as he imagined, if he brings all the army and let others see his ambitions, I guess he and I will not be able to please anything.

In the Battle of the Yellow Turbans, he saw the weakness of the Han family, just weak, and the power of the Han family was still very large. It's just that these forces are usually distributed among the states, and there are not many opportunities to mobilize them together.

Just like the Yellow Turban Rebellion, when the rebellion occurred at the beginning, the Han family was taken by surprise, and the fire of the prairie seemed to burn the entire territory of the Han family at first glance. But when the Han family reacted, they gathered forces and suppressed them one by one, and the Yellow Turban Rebellion was suppressed after a period of time.

This force was only a part of the total force, and not all of them were assembled, and there were wars in the states that would enable the arrival of those armies in time. If he shows an ambition to be visible to others, then there is a good chance that he will be the next Yellow Turban thief to be besieged.

poured another bowl of water for himself, and Dong Zhuo exhaled happily after drinking the water.

"Wenhe, what do you think?" Dong Zhuo asked Li Rulai as usual.

As the first strategist under Dong Zhuo and his son-in-law, Li Ru, who is trusted by Dong Zhuo, is not comparable to others. In the entire system of Dong Zhuo's army, only Dong Zhuo's other son-in-law, Niu Fu, can be compared with him.

Now the two of them, Niu Fu is sitting in Liangzhou and managing Dong Zhuo's Liangzhou base camp. The other Li Ru follows Dong Zhuo and gives him advice at any time.

"The quality of the Nanyang Army is extremely high, if we can get this army, then the strength of our army can be greatly strengthened. It's just..."Li Ru stroked the long beard under his chin with his hand, and thought of Qin Jie, the commander of the Nanyang Army, the difficulty in the middle can be imagined.

He has not observed those Taishou less, Qin Jie is a leader in the middle, when he was in the camp, some things that were inadvertently revealed were also illustrating Qin Jie's ability to govern the army. It's too hard to replace someone like that, even if you get hold of his henchmen and rebel against one or two people, killing him won't be able to bring his army under your control.

"It's too hard. With Qin Jie's ability, it was really inconceivable to take control of his army. So I think, my lord, we shouldn't focus on Qin Jie. Li Ru pointed out the key issue without hesitation, and mercilessly smashed the fantasy in Dong Zhuo's mind.

The understanding of Dong Zhuo made Li Ru think of what Dong Zhuo was thinking, which was nothing more than seeing that the army of the Nanyang Army was strong and had the idea of bringing it under his command.

After listening to Li Ru's answer, Dong Zhuo, who was pierced in his heart, was not angry, and smiled wryly. That's right, it's not wrong that he wants to collect the army of the Nanyang Army, that kind of military appearance and military momentum is not much more than his army. Maybe it will be inferior in terms of fierceness, but in terms of the discipline of the army, it is not good for the army under his command.

On the way to Luoyang City, if it weren't for his strong suppression, I don't know how many things would have to be unmanageable! At this juncture, of course, he doesn't allow any problems to arise, so all the soldiers who can't control themselves, whether they can't control their hands or their lower bodies, have only one word, kill!

"Why not?" Dong Zhuo was a little unwilling, and the troops in his hands now had become a little insufficient after the previous battle. It is basically impossible to control the situation, so he beat the doctrine on these state armies who appeared like him and attacked Luoyang City.

When the troops of Liangzhou came over one after another, that long period of time passed, and the situation in Luoyang City had been calmed. In order for his plan to unfold smoothly, the only way to do it is to make dangerous moves, and he has to put his mind on others.

"I'm afraid that if I want to win over his generals, it will become evidence about us in his hands. With Qin Jie's degree of control over the army under his command, not only will no one betray him, but on the contrary, someone may also report to Tifeng. Li Ru sighed.

"Therefore, it is absolutely impossible to attack the Nanyang Army."

The two exhortations were the most direct one, like two slaps in the face and two basins of cold water poured on Dong Zhuo, who was in high spirits.

Hua Xiong, who was standing at the bottom, was shocked when he saw it, but he didn't dare to do this. Looking at the entire army, there is only one military division that can do this, and Niu Fu, who is far away in Liangzhou.

"Well, well." Although he was unwilling, Dong Zhuo could only give up, because what Li Ru said was very reasonable.

He wants to control other people's armies, and he can't be greedy, because there can be no mistakes or mistakes in it. To have a point, even if it is just a point, you have to give up decisively.

Otherwise, he saw that the general under Qin Jie, who was following Qin Jie's side, really loved talent. It must be a fierce general, but unfortunately he should not have a chance to take it under his command.

"Then Wenyou, who do you think we can do here?" Thinking about it, Dong Zhuo couldn't think of a target that could start, so he simply threw the question to Li Ru.

"This..."Li Ru habitually stroked the long beard under his chin again, and this time he fell into a long contemplation.

The camps he had visited, the commanders of the various armies in the camps, and the generals under their command, appeared and disappeared from his mind one after another. In the end, Li Ru was fixed on a military general who was heroic and extraordinary, with a slender figure, but a gloomy and depressed face

That's him!
