Li Ru smiled beside Dong Zhuo, yes, this is the lord he assists, his father-in-law. It was the man he gambled on to make him change the situation.

If he can't even give up at all, don't go too far, he will now advocate returning to Liangzhou.

The plan is very big, the plan is very big, and there must be a stomach that can swallow what you want to swallow. Otherwise, you won't even be able to eat, but you will choke to death. Just like now, if you don't want to pay at all, you care about the gains and losses of a horse and want to recruit Lu Bu, which is no less than a fool's dream.

Which is more important, a horse or an army? Anyway, in Li Ru's opinion, it is far more important than a war horse, at least in today's situation, a war horse can't do what an army can do, let alone use it as an army.

It used to be true, but now I can! A red rabbit horse is likely to be exchanged for Lu Bu's allegiance, and Lu Bu's allegiance can help them devour all the soldiers and horses under Ding Yuan's command! It's not that just a war horse can do the truth, there is also the corresponding treatment, promises, etc., plus a war horse, there is that kind of opportunity to exchange for Lu Bu's loyalty.

It's just that the things that were paid for were promised. The red rabbit horse is the item that Dong Zhuo cares about the most. After all, he had followed Dong Zhuo for a long time, and knew that although his father-in-law no longer often led the army out of battle and fought on the battlefield in person, the experience in his early years made him completely have all the habits of those generals.

A military general is a good horse, and that kind of obsession is something that many people can't experience. Li Ru is not a military general, but he can realize that that kind of obsession is probably the same as their kind of people, who are obsessed with books.

Asking Dong Zhuo to give away the most precious red rabbit horse among the horses he owned was no less than cutting meat from his body.

But only if you give up, you will have it, and you will not be reluctant. After cutting the meat, he may die of the largest piece of meat, at least in Li Ru's opinion, Lu Bu, the general next to Ding Yuan, is worthy of the Red Rabbit Horse by himself.

When doing anything, Li Ru had a detailed investigation, including this time to recruit Lu Bu, so he not only asked for Lu Bu's information from Li Su in the army. At the same time, from various channels, including Lu Bu's army, Lu Bu's resume over the years was also investigated.

From this, he found a very interesting thing, over the years, Ding Yuan sent some good news in the court, the most important of which was himself, and almost all the credit was taken by him. Only some, small corners, appeared other people's names, and that was where the generals stayed.

There is nothing wrong with leading the army and commanding the generals under your command Ding Yuan, the history of a state, and on the merit book, you can also say that you have led well and occupied the greatest credit. But you can't take all the credit, don't give your generals a little credit, and don't give them their fair share.

So, who else will serve you? Anyway, all the military merits earned by working hard are attributed to Ding Yuan, since this is the case, what reason is there to fight to the death?

The answer is no. To let your generals and soldiers live and die with you, it is important to give them hope for the future, such as military exploits, such as various rewards, so that the generals under your command can serve you and serve you to the death.

Li Ru really couldn't figure out how a person like Ding Yuan could climb to the position of a state assassin. It is a complete miracle that there are people who have served under him for so long.

In the Liangzhou Army, more rewards were given to his subordinates. Although he captured a lot in the process of Pingqiang, and there were various rewards from the imperial court, his father-in-law never took credit, and gave most of the rewards to his generals and soldiers, leaving only a small part for himself.

It is not without reason that he can lay a great foundation in Liangzhou, and even some Qiang tribes still listen to his orders. It's all about daring to give, giving and taking. If you want to get more, then you have to pay more to get a little more.

If you don't understand this, you won't be able to go far. For example, Ding Yuan, as long as he recruits Lu Bu, then he will die.

In any case, they will not let Ding Yuan live, let Ding Yuan return to the state, and there will be such a state assassin as an enemy, and a fool will do this. What's more, although Ding Yuan did things unfairly and treated his soldiers and generals harshly, he was still the nominal commander and commander of the state army.

If they want to control the army they brought to Luoyang City, a dead Ding Yuan can let them completely control the army under his command.

"Li Su, tomorrow you go a third time, go to find out Lu Bu's tone, and test it. If he really wants that, then go further. Li Ru added next to him.

He is more cautious than Dong Zhuo, the more he gets to this time, the more careful he becomes, if these things they plan are leaked, it will undoubtedly have a very big impact on the next series of things. intends to hook up with others, or at the feet of the Son of Heaven, Luoyang City, the important land, to unite with others. So what are you trying to do? What do you want to do?

Therefore, although the willingness to recruit Lu Bu is very urgent, the more careful it is at this time, so as not to make mistakes or omissions.

"Yes." Dong Zhuo nodded, and after Li Ru's reminder, he realized that he was indeed a little too urgent.

Calm, calm, Dong Zhuo exhaled a few breaths to calm himself down. Although Ding Yuan was concerned with the next series of things, including whether he could have a sufficient number of troops to suppress the scene, he was indeed in a hurry.

Especially not to let Ding Yuan perceive the slightest clue, once they notice these small actions they did in private, a chaos is indeed indispensable. The most serious thing is that through such a mess, he leads to the things behind him that no one else can know.

Thinking about this, Dong Zhuo said: "Yes, if you go to probe Lu Bu's tone again, you can't show that you are too urgent." If he really has that kind of will, if he can confirm it, then Li Su, you can make a lot of promises. is still the same sentence, as long as I have it, Lu Bu wants it, then give it to him! ”

"Yes!" Li Su clenched his fists and said solemnly.

He knew how serious Dong Zhuo's words were now, so he wouldn't treat this as a joke. It is best that this one thing can be successful in his hands, then he can get Dong Zhuo's attention, which is also what he needs.

Of course, this also tests his means, investing in Dong Zhuo means that everything can be given, as long as there is one, but only a fool will listen to this sentence as true. He said so, but he couldn't really listen to it and do it. Isn't this the time to manifest his power?

Find out what Lu Bu needs as much as possible, and then use everything he needs to persuade Lu Bu to pay the smallest price possible. But he must succeed, if he fails because of this, then he will definitely not be able to eat and walk around.

Just listening to what Dong Zhuo said, he understood how important this matter was, and if such an important thing was entrusted to him, success and failure represented two different extremes. Therefore, he was more cautious earlier and could not let things fall into his own hands.

"Report!"

Just when the plan was decided, he suddenly heard the voice of a soldier outside the tent, and Dong Zhuo glanced at Li Su. The latter opened his mouth and asked, "What's the matter?" ”

"Liangzhou Urgent." The soldier outside the tent replied respectfully.

"Come in." Dong Zhuo couldn't help but speak at this moment, and his face suddenly became gloomy.

He had a premonition that after he left Liangzhou, someone would inevitably make waves in Liangzhou. That's why he let Niu Fu sit in Liangzhou, and only waited for a part of the army to come to Luoyang City, afraid of chaos in the rear.

I didn't expect it, but it was still coming. He had already instructed when he left that all the affairs of Liangzhou would be handed over to Niu Fu to be in charge of, and only when necessary, he would come to inform him.

Then this one is necessary. It is very likely that it is his big rear, and there is a problem in Liangzhou. Dong Zhuo also knew who was making trouble, but it was Han Sui and Ma Teng who were making trouble.

If he could, he wouldn't have left without eradicating the two people in Liangzhou who were often against him? However, it is true that these two people also have some ability, and they can hold out under his hands for so long, which makes him feel extremely tricky.

However, Dong Zhuo was not worried about Han Sui and Ma Teng's troubles. The impact is limited to that scope. The reason why he left Niu Fu in Liangzhou was not because he was his son-in-law, the closest and trusted general, but more importantly, because of his ability.

As his right-hand man, if Niu Fu didn't have that ability, he wouldn't want to use his daughter to tie him to his current chariot. With the help of the ox, the worst can also take care of all the territory under his control in an orderly manner after he leaves.

Han Sui and Ma Teng were in trouble, but they were only able to rely on the suddenness at the beginning to catch them off guard. As long as it takes a long time, it will be difficult for them to think about doing something, and the number of troops in the hands of two people is not enough to control so much territory.

As for the Qiang? Give the territory controlled by their hands to the Qiang people, unless they want to lose the hearts of the people and really don't want to mix in Liangzhou, so they will do such a stupid thing. Otherwise, Dong Zhuo still knew very well that the emergency report from Liangzhou came to tell him only what happened, and it would not be too serious.
