When the princes of the Eighteenth Road launched an edict and jointly launched a crusade against Dong Zhuo, Dong Min didn't know that he was sleeping comfortably with a servant girl in his room in the assassination mansion. Rao is now on the rise, and it has already come time to deal with the government affairs of the Assassin's Mansion.
"General, no! Oh no! Outside Dong Min's room, there was an anxious shout, because it was too urgent, this general of the Xiliang Army broke through the door directly.
"Ahh The general of the Xiliang Army rushed into the door, saw the white and tender body of the maidservant, and saw Dong Min's fat and bloated figure and impatient face looking at him, and hurriedly lowered his head.
"What's going on? In a hurry, the sky is falling? Dong Min rubbed his eyes and asked.
The general of the Xiliang Army clenched his fists and said, "Lord Thorn Shi, now the sky is indeed turned upside down outside." The subordinates have just received the news that the Kwantung princes have a total of eighteen roads, and they have formed a coalition to crusade against our army an hour ago, elected Yuan Shao as the leader of the alliance, and declared war on us! ā
"What?!" Dong Min was so frightened that he rolled off the bed all of a sudden, grabbed the collar of the general of the Xiliang Army in surprise, and asked repeatedly, "What did you say?" Say it again! The general of the Xiliang Army repeated this again. Dong Min was still a little incredulous, and said, "Eighteen road princes, which eighteen roads are they?" ā
The general of the Xiliang Army said: "Later generals Nanyang Taishou Yuan Shu, Jizhou Thorn Shi Han Fu, Yuzhou Thorn Shi Kong Ling, Yanzhou Thorn Shi Liu Dai...... A total of eighteen towns. ā
Dong Min took a breath of cold air, obediently, sure enough, this is the entire Kwantung princes have entered, what are they trying to do? Is it really like a rebellion?
"General, now the situation is urgent, after the princes of the Eighteenth Route declare war on us, they will definitely be the first to attack us, this Yangzhou must not stay for a long time, let's get out of here quickly." Maybe at this time, the Kwantung coalition forces are already on their way to crusade against us. The general of the Xiliang Army persuaded him.
"yes, you have a point. Let's go immediately, let's leave here immediately, you immediately give an order, all the soldiers of the Xiliang Division, immediately set up camp and prepare to go. Dong Min's hand trembled slightly and commanded.
"By the way, you remember to bring all my money and belongings, and we will take them back to Luoyang." Dong Min didn't finish the money he looted in Yangzhou at this time, and reminded.
The general of the Xiliang Army said with a look of embarrassment: "But this money is too much, it is the size of two rooms, and bringing so much money is likely to delay our speed, now at this time........ It's just too risky. ā
"I don't care about these, bring it, bring it!" Dong Min tugged at the collar of the general of the Xiliang Army and said loudly, and the spit stars sprayed on the general's face.
"Yes, my subordinates know, bring it, bring it!"
"Good. Go down and get ready. Dong Min let go of his hand, and the general of the Xiliang Army left the door.
"General, what's wrong?" The maid on Dong Min's bed rubbed her eyes and said, "What happened?" So angry? This person really doesn't understand the rules, and he dares to trespass in and disturb the general's rest. ā
"Rest a fart, and rest your life will be over here." Dong Min didn't get angry, and after scolding casually, he left the room, leaving only the maid with a puzzled face on the bed.
Dong Min got dressed and came to the main hall of the Assassin's Mansion in a hurry, and was about to check how the department was cleaning up now, when suddenly another soldier came over and reported: "My lord, General Xiaobai outside the mansion has asked to see you." ā
"See me? At this time, Lin Xiaobai suddenly visited, could it be that he had already taken refuge in the Kwantung Coalition Army and came to visit me? Dong Min was a little worried in his heart, so he waved his hand and said: "No, I don't want to see anyone at this time, just tell him that I'm not there, and let him come to me another day." ā
After a few minutes, the soldier came back and said, "General Xiaobai asked me to bring a message to the general, saying that he has important information to pass on to Lord Assassin, it is about the dynamics of the alliance of the Kwantung princes, and I hope to help Lord Assassin Shi." ā
"You're here to report to me the information of the Kwantung princes? Call him in. Although Dong Min was a little skeptical, he heard that Lin was just a person who came here, and he thought that he might as well meet him, and there was no harm, maybe there would really be gains and help here Lin Xiaobai.
Lin Ran came to Dong Min under the guidance of the Xiliang soldiers and bowed.
"General Xiaobai doesn't need to be polite, you also know my current situation, the Kwantung princes intend to rebel, I want to go back and report to my brother as soon as possible. If you have any information, General Xiaobai, tell me quickly. Dong Min looked like he was summoned, he was really in a hurry.
From Yangzhou to Luoyang, the middle road is very long, and it has to pass through the territory of several Kwantung princes, as long as there is a slight delay, I am afraid that he will be overturned here by the Kwantung princes, such an end is predictable.
Lin Ran saw that he was in a hurry, and felt a lot more relieved. At this time, the more anxious you are, the better it is, I'm afraid that you won't be in a hurry, so I'm still a little bit embarrassed.
"Alright, Lord Thorn, I'll cut a long story short. This time, I came here suddenly, in fact, because of the rebellion of the Kwantung princes. Lin Ran followed Dong Min's words and said: "I know that after the rebellion of the Kwantung princes, I am very worried, it just so happens that my caravan has recently discovered a shortcut, which can go north from Yangzhou to Luoyang through Jingzhou, without having to go through the territory of the Kwantung princes back to Luoyang City, I think this information must be very important to the general, so I took the liberty to come and disturb." ā
"There's a shortcut!? That's great! Dong Min laughed, and the fat on his face shook and trembled, looking very disgusting.
"As soon as I came to Yangzhou, I saw that General Xiaobai, you must be a loyal minister and pillar of my court. General Xiaobai, you are really ...... Oops, I don't even know what to say! Anyway, it's grateful. At this time, thanks to Xiaobai, you helped. ā
"Dingdong, the intimacy value between you and Dong Min has risen by 5 points, rising to the first acquaintance."
Lin Ran said with a smile: "These are just gestures, and the general doesn't need to be too grateful." And I have a reluctant request, this time the general is leaving Yangzhou, and it must be useless to think that these craftsmen and craftsmen in Liyang City will come, so this time I still want to ask for some more craftsmen from the general. ā
Lin Ran took the opportunity to tell his true purpose. (To be continued.) )
