Chapter 338: See Zhang Liao
"Who dares to make things difficult for governor Ding? I have to ask if the spear in Wu Lieyang's hand agrees!?"
When Yang Rui heard that Dong Zhuo and Ding Yuan had faced each other, he immediately brought Gao Shun, Zhang Ning, Cheng Yu, and more than 6,500 warriors who first arrived. When Yang Rui arrived, the two sides were already tense, and Lu Bu was also riding his horse and preparing to move forward and was about to fight with the other party. So Yang Rui shouted from afar.
On the way back to Luoyang Imperial City, Yang Rui had already thought it through. It was never a long-term solution for his own troops to hoard in Luoyang City. Even after a long time, there would be danger of destruction. Dong Zhuo would not only bring 30,000 to Luoyang to go shopping and view the scenery. It is very likely that his army of troops was on the way to Luoyang at this time!
As a warlord in the foreign town, Dong Zhuo must have at least tens of millions of soldiers. With Yang Rui's tens of thousands of soldiers, it is difficult to change the general trend of Luoyang Imperial City. Otherwise, how will the plot of the second large-scale game be carried out?
Judging from the current situation, players still have a lot to go to gain a foothold in the game. This time, Yang Rui was able to participate in Luoyang, and his strength was improved. More because of the reason for participating in the mission, it just happened.
Therefore, Yang Rui’s most urgent task is to seize the opportunity to gain more benefits, and to ensure a retreat without any loss. If both cannot be obtained, the latter can only be ensured!
For this reason, Yang Rui had to bring Ding Yuan as his helper to share Dong Zhuo's pressure to gain greater voice. Moreover, Lu Bu cannot take action for the time being to prevent his high combat power from attracting Dong Zhuo's attention, thus becoming a breakthrough for the other party to take action. Lu Bu is a weakness...
It is undeniable. When Yang Rui arrived just now, the momentum that Lu Bu burst out was almost unparalleled. It was the only thing Yang Rui saw since he entered the game! In comparison, Gao Shun, a first-level historical general, was even much different from him! However, it is precisely because of his decisive strength that the harm caused by turning against him will be even more serious!
"Lieyang is coming at the right time. We and the two of us are joining forces to destroy the Dong thief madman in one fell swoop!"
When Ding Yuan saw Yang Rui appear, he was immediately happy and shouted to Dong Zhuo's formation, "Old thief Dong Zhuo! There are not many soldiers who bully me. Today, I want you to know how powerful my Ding Yuan is, and you just happened to destroy your old man with General Lieyang!"
Dong Zhuo also discovered Yang Rui's arrival. He wanted to relied on the number of soldiers to deal with Ding Yuan first, but he didn't expect that Yang Rui would come back at the critical moment. Moreover, from Yang Rui's tone, it was obvious that he was turning to Ding Yuan's side!
With Yang Rui's participation, Dong Zhuo's military strength advantage was greatly offset. He was a man who had killed his former general and fought against him without any hesitation. Dong Zhuo was still quite afraid of him. Yang Rui blocked him several times. At this time, Dong Zhuo's fat black face was already trembling with anger.
"My father doesn't need to do this. My current situation is very limited in Luoyang's troops and does not have a full advantage. It is better to stabilize the situation first and fight less! However, this Lieyang Captain is quite tricky, but Wenyou also has a plan to deal with him, so it's better to do this..."
When Dong Zhuo was about to explode, a literati dressed in the formation persuaded him and discussed with the man in a low voice that the literati was Dong Zhuo's son-in-law - Li Ru!
"Haha...Hahaha...Don't be surprised, it's just a misunderstanding! I think Dong Zhuo is also thinking about the Han Dynasty's country, so he proposed the decree and establishment at the banquet last night. You can discuss and decide again. Now the Ten Constant Palaces are in chaos, and it is time to rest and rest, so there is no need to make a rash move...hahaha..."
After Li Ru persuaded him, he made another plan for Dong Zhuo, and indeed controlled Dong Zhuo's emotions. In the end, Dong Zhuo took the initiative to reconcile with Ding Yuan and Yang Rui, and a fight was saved. After a few arguments, he returned to his camp to guard.
Yang Rui retreated with Ding Yuan and talked about it all the way. Yang Rui learned that when Dong Zhuo held a banquet last night, he had already proposed the deposed Emperor Liu Bian and the establishment of another prince Liu Xie. He was immediately opposed by a group of officials of all sizes and big and small. The banquet ended in disgrace.
However, after the previous rebellion of the Ten Elephants, most of the generals in Luoyang Imperial City had lost their hands and had not much military strength. Dong Zhuo had the most soldiers, so all officials were very afraid of Dong Zhuo. After the banquet, many officials, including Yuan Shao, Cao Cao, and Bao Xin, had already left Luoyang City, a place of trouble for the right and wrong. Only Dong Zhuo, Ding Yuan, Qiao Mao and Yang Rui were left here.
Unexpectedly, the next morning, Dong Zhuo sent an envoy to invite Ding Yuan to discuss matters. Ding Yuan was angry and came directly with his troops! This was the scene that Yang Rui had just seen.
"Brother Lieyang, last night, the 60,000 elite troops of the old thief Dong Zhuo's rear army had entered Luoyang City. So far, the number of his troops has exceeded 120,000. According to the spies' response, Dong Zhuo's troops are still gathering in Luoyang City, so the old thief is so confident!
However, the two of us, plus the strength of the prefect Qiao Maoqiao, can only barely exceed 100,000 people, and the challenge in front of the formation is not enough to be afraid. I am afraid that it is the old thief's opponent to face the battle head-on!" Ding Yuan continued to say.
It turned out that at this time, Dong Zhuo's troops had more than 100,000 troops in Luoyang City, and they had a considerable advantage. No wonder he was domineering! Ding Yuanzhiyan also provided a lot of information to Yang Rui. As Yang Rui had expected before, Luoyang City had become a dragon's den, not a place for long-term stay!
"Governor Ding might as well talk to Lieyang to the south gate of your tent." Yang Rui said after thinking for a moment.
After hearing the movement of Dong Zhuo's troops, Yang Rui had already developed a desire to retreat. He was about to learn more about the specific movements of Dong Zhuo's troops. At the same time, Yang Rui was joining forces with Ding Yuan after all, and he was hesitating whether to persuade Ding Yuan to prevent him from losing his life easily!
After the two entered the city gate tower and talked again, Yang Rui felt a little relieved. It turned out that although Dong Zhuo had a large number of reinforcements on the road, he would not be able to arrive in Luoyang City within five or six days. There was still some time left for Yang Rui to deal with, so he would not be caught off guard.
However, Yang Rui was preparing to persuade Ding Yuan but could not say it in his throat. Ding Yuan was determined to defend the Han Dynasty. However, Yang Rui wanted to persuade him to protect himself, which happened to be contrary to the rules, so he never knew how to speak.
Finally, Yang Rui proposed to Ding Yuan that he would meet Lu Bu and Zhang Liao. He came to Ding Yuan's headquarters to meet Zhang Liao. Before, when Ding Yuan led his troops to fight Dong Zhuo, Zhang Liao did not appear. Ding Yuan immediately ordered his men to send the two to see each other, and was a little surprised that Yang Rui could know Zhang Liao's existence. Yang Rui just said that he had heard of it before.
"I have heard that the members of the governor Ding's subordinate Fengxian, Wen Yuan was brave, Lieyang and Governor Ding fell in love with it at first sight. Today, Lieyang each gave two golden swords a gift. I hope you don't dislike them!"
After Lu Bu and Zhang Liao arrived, Yang Rui took two gold-level swords prepared in advance from the soldiers without hesitation and gave them to Lu Bu and Zhang Liao.
Since the plot of the Yellow Turban Uprising, Yang Rui has obtained two gold-level swords in total. Later, when Zhao Rong entrusted him to train, he gave one to Gao Shun as a sword. The remaining two were given to Lu Bu and Zhang Liao at this time.
Although the golden-level sword is not what Yang Rui needs, it is also a very precious weapon at present. It would be fine to give it to Zhang Liao. Yang Rui is determined to win it, and it is also to enhance the relationship. The reason why Yang Rui also gave Lu Bu a hand to imply that he had an extraordinary relationship with Ding Yuan, so that when Lu Bu really wanted to be unfavorable to Ding Yuan, he should also consider his friendship with Yang Rui!
That's all Yang Rui could do for Ding Yuan. This was also done by the two of them in a joint relationship. It is unknown whether it will work. Of course, Yang Rui also had the idea of stabilizing Lu Bu's behavior in it so that he would not turn to Dong Zhuo too quickly.
"General Xie Lieyang gave him a sword! Thanks to the general's appreciation, but if the general is useful, Lu Bu must be obliged to do so!"
“You don’t need to be polite…”
Lu Bu's reaction was within Yang Rui's expectations. Yang Rui just nodded and smiled to him, but after Zhang Liao took the golden sword, hesitated, and for some reason.
"Zhang Liao apologized to the governor, please forgive me!"
Zhang Liao's actions were abnormal next. He did not thank Yang Rui, but instead apologized to Ding Yuan first, "Thanks to the governor's enlistment, Wen Yuan has not made any contributions under the governor's enlistment, but he has benefited a lot from the governor. Wen Yuan thanked him for this! However, when the governor was recruited, Wen Yuan had said first. When he was young, he met a wise man in Yanmen and first got a good horse, Fiery Horse. That man was Lieyang Captain..."
"Oh? Is this really the case?" Ding Yuan frowned slightly when he heard this, as if he was recalling something.
Although Zhang Liao did not finish his words, he knew that there were other twists and turns based on his unusual actions. After only a moment, Ding Yuan frowned and seemed to have thought of something, and then he burst into laughter.
"Hahaha... I have recalled it. It turns out that the person Wen Yuan said was General Lieyang! This is the best! Haha... I have already understood the meaning of Wen Yuan. Now I am with Lieyang to support the Han Dynasty. Wen Yuan is under the tent of Lieyang and is equivalent to my tent. This governor will not obstruct him at all, let alone Wen Yuan has something to say before..."
As a result, it was Yang Rui's turn to be uneasy. He did not expect Ding Yuan to do such a thing and sent Zhang Liao over directly!
"Wenyuan thanks the governor for his cultivation..." Zhang Liao bowed deeply to Ding Yuan again.
Before Yang Rui could recall it, a system prompt was already coming.
