Trust!

Xun Yu frowned slightly, and then stretched out.

Jia Xu opened his eyes and looked at Liu Bei with a hint of doubt in his eyes.

The situation in Luoyang is about victory and defeat, can it really be so hasty?

However, he immediately realized that there was no so-called absolute trust between the monarch and the minister, even if Liu Bei was known as benevolent and righteous, he would not put the hard-built foundation on the choice of a courtier.

There is only one explanation, Liu Bei has other means that can limit the moves. It's just that this method will not be used easily, and if the general does the right thing, this hole card will always be hidden.

On the contrary, if he betrays, I am afraid that his head will soon fall to the ground.

Jin Yiwei.

Jia Xu couldn't help but think of this organization hidden in the dark, and secretly admired in his heart, Guo Fengxiao's hand was clever.

With such an all-pervasive and unguardable organization, as long as it continues to function normally, no rebellion can shake Liu Bei's foundation, because he has insight into all your plans.

Jia Xu looked up, but saw that Xun Yu was also looking at him, everything was silent.

Liu Bei then ordered: "Lu Bu." ”

"The end will be."

"Order you to lead five thousand light cavalry to attack on the left flank and fight in coordination with Zhao Yun."

"Whoa."

"Huang Zhong."

"The end will be."

"Order you to lead five thousand elite cavalry to attack from the right flank and coordinate with Zhao Yun."

"Whoa."

"The rest of the men advanced with the Chinese army."

"Whoa."

The war was on the verge of breaking out, and the two armies fought again after half a year.

However, Dong Zhuo did not seem to have the determination to fight to the end, and after only a few defeats, he led the army to retreat twenty miles and set up camp.

Liu Bei's labor division went on an expedition, but did not take advantage of the victory to pursue, and chose to fight steadily.

……

In the camp of the Xiliang Army, in the big tent of the Chinese army, Dong Zhuo looked at Li Ru with a displeased face.

"Wen You, didn't you say that Liu Bei was worried about the turmoil in the rear and didn't dare to fight with our army?"

In the tent, Li Dao, Guo Yan and other generals are all disgraced,

After the defeat in the last battle, the Xiliang army under Dong Zhuo seemed to be afraid of the Bingzhou army, and Liu Bei had not used the killer weapon of the Iron Floating Massacre, and they had already been defeated and retreated.

Li Ru was both embarrassed and ashamed when he heard this, and sighed: "Maybe I overestimated Wang Yun, and his plan did not have an impact on Liu Bei." ”

Dong Zhuo's heart became more and more dissatisfied, but he still endured it on his face and did not have a seizure.

Li Dao came out and said: "Lord, we might as well have a good fight with Liu Bei, they have heavy armor and iron horses, don't we have them?" ”

As soon as these words came out, they immediately aroused the echo of other generals.

As Li Dao said, after Dong Zhuo saw the benefits of the Iron Floating Slaughter, he used the original Flying Bear Army as the basis and imitated the armor of the Iron Floating Slaughter to form a heavy armored iron cavalry.

The Xiliang army did not lack high-headed horses, but after starting to build, Dong Zhuo found that this cavalry needed to spend so much money and food.

I thought of forming two or three thousand people, but then it was reduced again and again, and in the end only seven hundred people were formed.

"No!"

Li Ru did not hesitate to make public anger and open his mouth to dissuade him.

"Why not?" Dong Zhuo looked at Li Ru expressionlessly.

"Since Liu Bei can create a cavalry army like Tiefutu, I am afraid that he has already come up with a way to crack it, and I think that the Flying Bear Army should be left until the most critical moment and perform miraculous feats in an unexpected way."

"As far as you can see, when is the most critical moment?"

Dong Zhuo was still expressionless.

Li Ru was about to answer, but suddenly noticed the strangeness in Dong Zhuo's tone, as if it contained monstrous anger.

Guo Yan also spoke: "My lord, the last general thinks that the military division is too unfounded, if he uses the Iron Floating Slaughter at the beginning of the battle, he will definitely be able to break Zhao Yun's vanguard and increase the morale of our army." ”

"I still think that Liu Bei's army has high morale and more troops than our army, and it is the best policy to stick to the party."

Although Li Ru saw Dong Zhuo's increasingly dissatisfied attitude towards him, he still worked hard to plan for him.

Because for him, Dong Zhuo is like a carefully cultivated sapling, which is about to grow into a towering tree, and he will never allow this tree to fall.

Ten years of work, how can it be lost?

How many decades are there in life?

"What's your plan?" Although he was dissatisfied, Dong Zhuo still opened his mouth to ask.

Li Ru has a point, and now there is a gap between his strength and Liu Bei.

There are 100,000 soldiers on the other side's trip, all of whom are elite in a hundred battles.

And he only has 80,000, among which there are many new recruits, and the combat power is obvious. Although he has a heavy armored iron horse, Dong Zhuo is not blindly arrogant.

He has it, Liu Bei has it, and the other party's heavy cavalry has more experience in breaking the formation than him.

Li Ru secretly breathed a sigh of relief, what he was most afraid of was that Dong Zhuo would no longer believe in him and would not adopt his strategy.

"My lord, I think I should unite a foreign aid."

"Foreign aid?"

Although Ma Teng Han Sui was far away in Xiliang, since Liu Bei was on his expedition to the west, his purpose was not just Guanzhong. If the lord is defeated, Liu Bei will definitely drive straight into Xiliang and enter. ”

"From this point of view, Ma Teng Han Sui and we are already cold-tongued, as long as we send a person who can speak well, know it with emotion and reason, and the two will definitely send troops to help."

This is Li Ru's strategy, as long as they unite the major forces in Xiliang, they will have the strength to fight Liu Bei head-on. If you take 10,000 steps back, even if you can't beat it, it's more than enough to hold on.

Dong Zhuo still remembered that the two sides had just fought a bloody battle not long ago, and sneered when he heard this: "We just killed them and abandoned their armor, will they raise troops to help?" ”

"Yes." Li Ru shook his head and said: "In the world of great contention, there has never been an eternal enemy, let alone an eternal friend, Ma Teng Han Sui has actually been connected with the interests of the lord. ”

"The lord is like a barrier for them, if the lord falls, they will also be unable to stand alone, and they will be swallowed up by Liu Bei in the end."

Li Wei snorted coldly: "At the beginning, I suggested that I take advantage of the victory to pursue and destroy Ma Teng Han Sui, and the military advisor had to let the two of them flee back to Xiliang, but now they have to rely on the two of them to breathe. ”

Li Ru was silent, he could feel that except for Dong Zhuo, everyone else was becoming more and more dissatisfied with him.

This is the norm in the world, as a military advisor, they will respect you when they win a battle, and they will naturally think that your incompetence is due to your defeat.

"The military advisor is right, although Ma Teng Han Sui was defeated at the beginning, he still has the strength to fight. If our army pursues, Liu Bei will inevitably take advantage of the weakness. ”

Although Dong Zhuo was a little dissatisfied with Li Ru's repeated failures, but now that the enemy is present, he must work together internally.

"Wenyou, the matter of the envoy will be arranged by you with full authority."

"Yes."

That night, an envoy sent by Dong Zhuo headed west, but he didn't know that he had been targeted the moment he left the camp.

"It must be an important person under Dong Zhuo's command, do you want to intercept it?"

"Wait, follow him first, and send someone to tell the lord."

Brocade ...... Nocturnal.
