Chapter 1167: Retreat is Advance
"Wen You, do you think it's necessary for the little emperor to stay?"
Dong Zhuo was angry and said to Li Ru, who was sitting in front of him, "Now the princes of the world have become self-reliant and no longer take the Han Dynasty seriously. ”
"What kind of official positions such as state pastors, they are all self-invited, not appointed through the imperial court."
He was a little sad now, and he didn't know where to get out of his breath.
Originally, according to Li Ru's plan, he set the policy of coercing the Son of Heaven to order the princes, but the meat was not eaten, but caused a commotion.
"My lord, as long as the princes of the world have not established themselves as emperors, the little emperor must be kept."
Li Ru looked at Dong Zhuo, who was becoming more and more manic, sighed secretly in his heart, and said, "If you abolish the little emperor, or kill him, the superficial unspoken rules that can bind the princes of the world will be gone." ”
"In that case, the princes of all walks of life will inevitably claim the title of emperor one after another, and they will no longer have the ability to unite to resist the powerful forces of the king."
"At that time, it was inevitable to be broken by Wang Qiang one by one."
"Get rid of the little emperor, and the one who benefits the most is Wang Qiang."
Li Ru's strategy is enough to enter the top five strategists in the world at this time, of course, he will not make such a low-level mistake, "If the lord really looks at the little emperor and the courtiers unpleasantly, he will put them all under house arrest." ”
"But no matter what, the little emperor and the Han court must be kept for the time being."
Today, the biggest threat is undoubtedly from the northern overlord Wang Qiang.
Once the little emperor is eliminated, the princes of the world have no last concerns, and the consequences are unimaginable.
"Wen You, having said that, I can't stand it anymore!"
Dong Zhuo said angrily, "Si Li's wealthy family, who had previously connected with us to kill us, was almost succeeded by them!" ”
"If it weren't for Wen You's effective monitoring and early detection, even if the old man didn't die, he would inevitably be expelled from the division!"
"Among them, the court officials led by the Yang family and the Wei family account for nearly half!"
"Moreover, the little emperor is also a thief, and he actually acts as the hub of it, so he wants to put the old man to death!"
The rebellion of the Sili family, which had just calmed down, made Dong Zhuo disgusted.
I have never made up my mind to completely eradicate them, just to stabilize the Han Dynasty and the small court, so that I can take the lead in the competition for hegemony among the princes of the world.
However, now it seems that it is nothing more than wishful thinking.
Nine out of ten wealthy families in the world cannot be used by themselves.
He kind of got it.
At this time, several sounds of breaking the air sounded, and several messengers broke through the air, hovering abruptly in front of Li Ru's eyes.
Looking at the blood-red mark on the messenger, Li Ru was taken aback!
"100,000 urgent?"
This kind of messenger is the highest level of communication in the army, and under normal circumstances, it will not be used.
Li Ru hurriedly grabbed it with one hand, used his divine thoughts to excite it, and began to check.
"What!"
"Wang Qiang's army, which has been confronting our army for several months, has come out of Wuguan, Sanguan, and Tiger Prison Pass!"
"The fastest moving Dian Wei Legion has nearly penetrated thousands of miles into Hongnong County! Enter Hongnong County! ”
"Zhao Yun's army also crossed Luonan and attacked Lushi County!"
"Huang Zhong's army has even gone out of Sanguan and attacked the northwest of Jingzhou that we occupied!"
After checking these few communication talismans, Rao is Li Rucheng Mansion was extremely deep, and he was also so shocked that he jumped up from his seat!
He really couldn't imagine that in this extraordinary period, Wang Qiang would not clean up Cao Cao, who took the initiative to attack them, but chose to attack his own family!
"This Wang Qiang is really too deceitful!"
Dong Zhuo was even more shocked, and after snatching a few messengers with one hand and checking them, his face turned blue and red, and he couldn't help but scold!
Scolding and scolding, but whether it is Dong Zhuo or Li Ru, they all know the reason why Wang Qiang did this.
Without it, the Sili region where he is located is now sandwiched between Gunzhou, Liangzhou, and Bingzhou, which is very inconvenient for the integration of Wang Qiang's forces.
Only by taking the entire Sili region can Wang Qiang truly connect his territory and occupy the initiative in future wars.
In this way, it is not surprising that Wang Qiang's first target of attack is his own side.
Having said that, now that the real crisis has arrived, even Dong Zhuo and Li Ru have been mentally prepared, they are a little panicked.
Wang Qiang's forces have maintained an undefeated record so far, fighting against any enemy and never defeating.
In the face of such an enemy, no one can be calm!
The news of the destruction of Yuan Shao and Gongsun Zan was known to Dong Zhuo and Li Ru seven days ago.
Whether it is Cao Cao, Dong Zhuo, or Liu Biao, they are all panicked, and they have been making various preparations intensively recently.
They all knew that the attacks of Wang Qiang's forces would not stop, and the next round of attacks could come at any time.
It's just that everyone has a fluke, hoping that the other party's goal is not themselves.
Now that the mystery is revealed, it is a joke to say that Dong Zhuo is not panicking.
"Wenyou, how is it now?"
Dong Zhuo is a hero, although he was not flustered, he took a deep breath and said to Li Ru.
In fact, the preparations that should be made have already been made in advance, and even the mobilization of the army has already been completed.
The army under Wang Qiang wants to copy the attack routine against Yuan Shao, Liu Zhang, Zhang Lu and others, but it can't be played.
"My lord, Hu Zhen, who is in charge of the defense work in the direction of Tongguan, has sent back the military information that the army led by Dian Wei and Zhang Fei did not rush forward, but adopted the tactics of pushing all the way."
A trace of helplessness flashed in Li Ru's eyes, "This tactic is the most incomprehensible, and the competition is the hard power of both sides." ”
"Ordering all the Tianjiao generals to block the attack layer by layer is the only way."
His face was solemn, he paused, lowered his head and thought for a while, the coldness in his eyes flashed, "My lord, it is undeniable that the current Wang Qiang is not something that we can defeat. ”
"Of course, if you want us to throw in the towel, it's impossible."
"However, we must make a good retreat, and while preserving ourselves, we must also avoid being killed by Wang Qiang, so that other princes can reap the benefits of the fisherman."
Li Ru is different from other strategists, once he finds a big crisis, he always wants to preserve his strength.
In the established history, when the princes of the Eighteenth Route attacked Dong and encountered a crisis, he strongly persuaded Dong Zhuo to move the capital, give up Luoyang City, and move west to Chang'an.
In fact, if Dong Zhuo wanted to defend Luoyang City at that time, he could still hold it.
But that would be detrimental to the overall situation, and would always keep one's own family surrounded by princes, and the follow-up development would be powerless.
In the end, he successfully persuaded Dong Zhuo to abandon Luoyang City and move the capital to Chang'an.
But after settling down, Dong Zhuo lost his ambition and only thought about pleasure, and was killed by Wang Yun's counter-plot.
But this can't be said to be a mistake in Li Ru's strategy, it's just that Dong Zhuo, the lord, can't support it.
"Wenyou, ......what do you mean?"
Dong Zhuo frowned slightly, and asked with some puzzlement.
"My lord, we have torn our faces with the wealthy families of the world, and there is no need to fight on the front line of fighting against Wang Qiang."
Li Ru said gloomily, "Anyway, Wang Qiang's soldiers are too strong, even if we do our best, we can't beat it." ”
"It's better to move the main force, personnel, and materials of the army to the central part of Jingzhou through the teleportation array as soon as possible while retreating, and preserve the strength."
"Today's Jingzhou Jiangbei, except for the Nanyang area, is all under the control of our army."
"As long as we evacuate fast enough, we can complete this retreat before Wang Qiang captures Luoyang."
"With the strength of our army, we can turn around and attack the southern part of Jingzhou with all our might, and we can capture it in a short time."
He said gloomily, "At that time, we fully retreated to Jiangnan and let Cao Cao, Yuan Shu, Liu Bei and Wang Qiang fight!" ”
"Neither of these two parties is a fuel-efficient lamp, and it is inevitable that both sides will lose."
"While they are fighting, we can take this opportunity to capture the entire Jiangnan region, vigorously develop, and be the last fisherman!"
"History has proven that the winner is the one who has the last laugh."
I have to say that the term "old yin" is more suitable for Li Ru than Jia Xu.
This guy's plan is simply impeccable, and it makes people's hearts chill when they think about it.
"Wenyou, this ......"
Li Ru's voice fell, but Dong Zhuo was a little unwilling.
His temperament became more and more irritable, and his heart was extremely high, so he left the Sili area without thinking much about it.
"Lord!"
Li Ru was anxious when he saw it, and hurriedly persuaded him, "As the saying goes, stay in the green mountains and don't worry about running out of firewood." ”
"We are advancing by retreating, forbearance for a while, not forbearance for a lifetime."
"That Wang Qiang's soldiers are too strong, and the current tactics are hard-hitting, we will definitely not be able to fight."
"Rather than just being so strong, it's better to let other princes stand in front!"
"The Jiangnan region, known as the land of fish and rice, once fully occupied by us, will soon develop rapidly, and it is not impossible to finally conquer the world."
"No matter how bad it is, you can use the Yangtze River natural danger to divide the river with Wang Qiang!"
He's in a hurry.
This father-in-law is good at everything, but he is a little too short-sighted.
"But ......"
Dong Zhuo still couldn't make up his mind to give up Luoyang City, the capital of the world.
Liangzhou, my hometown, is gone, and this Luoyang City is very prosperous and a good place to have fun.
Coupled with his own soldiers, ninety percent of the elite are northerners, and going to the wild land in the south is like going to exile.
For Dong Zhuo, he has enjoyed a luxurious life for several years, and he is really not used to giving up at once.
"Father-in-law!"
Li Ru was a little angry, but he didn't dare to attack, so he had to persuade patiently, "That Xiangyang City is also a big city in the world, and its prosperity is not under this Luoyang!" ”
"Moreover, the Jiangnan area, famous for its beautiful women, what kind of life do you want?"
In desperation, he had no choice but to lure him to his advantage, and persuaded him step by step, "Don't you want to eradicate the Han court and the little emperor?" ”
"Once we complete the goal of the great retreat, the little emperor and the Manchu Dynasty will be useless."
"On the day of the final evacuation of Luoyang City, it is okay for you to kill them with your own hands."
In order to achieve his strategic goals, Li Ru is also sparing no expense.
He was very sorry for his life.
Among the demons and gods in the Han Dynasty and Kyushu, it is estimated that he and Jia Xu are the most desperate, and he and Jia Xu will be ranked in the top two.
Although getting rid of the little emperor and the Manchu Dynasty is not good for the overall situation, in order to make Dong Zhuo decide to retreat, Li Ru can't care so much.
Seriously, if it weren't for Li Ru being Dong Zhuo's second son-in-law and tied to him in the same boat, Li Ru would have left to join Wang Qiang.
Anyone with a discerning eye knows that Wang Qiang is now in the general trend of dominating the world, but the time it will take is undecided.
For Dong Zhuo's father-in-law, the more Li Ru thought about it, the more anxious he became.
Before his family occupied Luoyang City, Dong Zhuo was ambitious and a qualified hero.
But the speed at which he degenerates and corrupts is unimaginably fast!
In just a few years, he became rigid and self-serving, poor and extravagant, which made Li Ru more and more disappointed.
The hidden dragon wins the crown, and if you don't win, you will die, so there is no point to force the number?
"Well, I'd like to see it."
Although Dong Zhuo was a little reluctant, he was a hidden dragon Tianjiao at the peak of the four-star refining god realm, and he was not old and confused.
Honestly speaking, Wang Qiang himself really can't beat him.
He also knew in his heart that it was the best choice to implement Li Ru's plan, but he was reluctant to give up Luoyang, the prosperous capital of the Han Dynasty.
"Hey......"
Dong Zhuo thought for a moment, and finally made a decision, and said in a cold voice, "Just arrange this great retreat according to your plan." ”
"But the king is too deceitful! If this Luoyang City Lao Tzu is burned, it will not be left to him! ”
He was very unhappy in his heart, and said fiercely, "Not only Luoyang City, but also the entire Sili area, must be robbed, moved, and burned, and not even a little thing will be left for that Wang Qiang!" ”
In the past, Dong Zhuo boasted that he was the first prince in the world, but with the rapid rise of Wang Qiang, his strength was gradually exposed, which made Dong Zhuo envious and jealous to the extreme.
If you can't get it, then Wang Qiang can't think about it!
"No!"
"Father-in-law, don't do it!"
Li Ru was jumping to his feet when he heard this, and hurriedly dissuaded, "If we do this, we won't be able to get rid of Wang Qiang at all, and we will inevitably be chased by him, and we will be quick to get rid of him!" ”
"For the sake of momentary anger, offending Wang Qiang to death will not do us any good!"
"That Wang Qiang's three-way army is menacing, it won't leave us much time at all, once the retreat is delayed, and it is besieged by Wang Qiang using the forbidden air array, everything is over!"
The father-in-law's idea is too dangerous.
Once you do that, let's not say whether you can do it or not, but it will definitely offend Wang Qiang completely, become his number one enemy, and launch an endless pursuit, nine times out of ten it will be established.
Among the intelligence he collected, Wang Qiang's guy took the interests of the common people very seriously.
Once Dong Zhuo dares to do this, it will be strange if he is not chased to the ends of the earth regardless of him!
In that case, you might as well defend it now!
Ay!
This father-in-law, has he been ghosted? It's getting more and more confused, how can there be such a stupid idea.
Today's top priority is to race against time to rush to transport personnel and materials, evacuate the Sili area as quickly as possible, and let Cao Cao have a headache.
If you do what the lord Dong Zhuo said, nine times out of ten, you won't be able to run away, so it's better to wait obediently to die.
