Chapter 131 Li Ru's Poison
study!
There was a faint smell of alcohol in the room, and Yan even asked the maid to hold the sobering soup to offer a bowl to all the civil and military officials in the study.
"Thank you, my mistress."
"Hehe, it's still the mistress's soup that is the taste of our Bingzhou."
At this time, the four civil officials in the study, Jia Xu, Gu Yong, Tian Feng and Cheng Yu, and among the military generals Zhang Liao, were almost all the generals of Bingzhou. They were all familiar with each other and chuckled casually as if they were back home.
The banquet was gone and everyone who could invite them to the study was full of confidants. Seeing his wife bringing the sober soup, Lu Bu smiled.
"All gentlemen are all talented. I thank you here for coming from thousands of miles."
After the sobering soup, Yan, whose words and deeds were full of everyone's demeanor, even saluted the four confidant civil servants.
After this scene fell into Jia Xu's eyes, he secretly praised it, and it seemed that there would be no chaos from the backyard of the lord.
After his wife left, Lu Bu signaled everyone to sit down, and Gu Yong, the youngest among them, was even more excited.
"Everyone, Luoyang Dong Zhuo is now a tiger in a cage. The eighteen princes of Guandong confront each other, where should we go?"
After the words came, Lu Bu looked at the civil ministers. Although Tian Feng was upright, he felt that he was new and did not want to steal the limelight. He looked at Jia Xu.
Needless to say, Cheng Yu is completely old-fashioned. Although Gu Yong is young, he still has a modest personality.
For a moment, everyone looked at Jia Xu, and Lu Bu even squinted his eyes and said with a smile: "Wenhe."
Jia Xu sighed in his heart, why didn’t he be the one who loves to show off? He would not be afraid of every day.
"Lord, Dong Zhuo may not be able to fight with the eighteen princes for a long time."
Among the civil officials who are most familiar with the current situation, it is Jia Xu. After all, he himself comes from Xiliang.
Flirting the short beard on his chin, Jia Xu said quietly: "Dong Zhuo has no way out. A tiger facing a desperate situation is the most terrifying thing. The eighteen princes are already dissatisfied, so how can they attack Luoyang?"
Report!
At this moment, a sudden sound rang outside the door, and everyone was shocked. A man ran in panting and presented an urgent report to Lu Bu.
"Lord! The emergency battle report of Luoyang."
After picking up the battle report, Lu Bu waved his hand and signaled the soldiers to retreat, and shouted to the personal soldiers outside the door: "Take them down and have a good rest."
The soldier hurriedly retreated with gratitude, and Lu Bu took out the battle report in the box, and immediately frowned, and couldn't help but sigh: "The power of the tiger is still there."
He handed the battle report to Jia Xu and other counselors for a look. After everyone finished reading it, they were filled with emotion. When it was the generals' turn, they all widened their eyes.
"Dong Zhuo was so brave that he actually took all the emperors and officials to the Huzhu, and even under the name of the emperor's personal expedition. In this way, the eighteen princes would be forced to retreat in less than two months."
Dong Zhuo’s move is so cruel!
Use the emperor and all officials as shields. Aren’t the eighteen princes under the banner of restoring King Hongnong? But King Hongnong had already died. Come on, come on, who are you going to think about the banner of your eighteen princes?
As for Zi Xie's bloodline identity today, since the death of King Hongnong, no one can compare to others' legitimate reputation.
The eighteen princes were embarrassed. You said you should continue fighting. If one or two ministers died, or if they hurt the emperor, Dong Zhuo would have an excuse. They are really criminals forever.
Not to mention that Dong Zhuo did not dare to depose the emperor, poisoned the empress dowager, poisoned King Hongnong, and killed the ministers at will, Dong Zhuo is now a twilight tiger on the verge of despair.
There is nothing else he dared not do. If Dong Zhuo is cruel and bold, and do some despicable means when they attack Hulaoguan Pass, the emperor will die on the spot, and it is still possible to get a trap.
The eighteen princes dare to take this risk, or if they drive Dong Zhuo crazy, they will really make the emperor die in a messy battle, and it will be over! No one in the world dares to think about this consequence.
"Master."
Jia Xu remained silent, but Tian Feng, who had a straight personality, couldn't help but say in a deep voice.
"Lord, the eighteen princes of the eighteen routes will withdraw their troops. Once the princes retreat, Dong Zhuo will definitely take advantage of the fact that the prince's foothold is not stable. The army of more than 100,000 will definitely turn around to attack Hangu Pass!"
Cheng Yu also responded solemnly: "Once all the princes disperse, Dong Zhuo will be trapped in Luoyang. Only by conquering Hangu Pass can you connect with the Western Liang in the rear, even!"
When they said this, they kept silent, Gu Yong humbly lowered his head and thought about the current situation, while Jia Xu did not say a word and seemed to rack his brains.
Lu Bu sneered, "You can even seize the imperial seal and capture all the empress dowager's forces who interfere in politics."
"The lord is wise."
Gu Yong and Cheng Yu bowed and said flattering words, but Tian Feng frowned with a tense face.
"The person who came up with this plan is really vicious and cruel." Even the emperor was plotting against him, even regardless of the emperor's safety, Tian Feng couldn't help but feel it was difficult at this time.
"Lord, Liu Yan of Yizhou has been making frequent moves recently, and he may be going to attack Hanzhong."
After Jia Xu's words, everyone frowned. At this time, the generals had not yet reacted.
Tian Feng, who was upright, said in a deep voice: "Once Liu Yan of Yizhou conquered Hanzhong, he could send troops to threaten Chang'an of Yongzhou, and even Ma Teng of Xiliang, Han Sui would take advantage of this to raise an army."
A plan made Lu Bu feel like a suffocating feeling that was about to come, and even relieved his current predicament.
Li Ru! After this figure suddenly flashed through his mind, Lu Bu smiled, with a cold light in his eyes. What a Li Ru, who is worthy of being a strategist who Dong Zhuo relies on.
A plan to retreat to the princes made him even more trouble.
"Wenhe, what's your trick?"
This time, Lu Bu didn't want to hide it anymore, so he directly asked Jia Xu with his name.
At this time, Jia Xu no longer hid himself and bowed his hands and said in a low voice: "Lord, if Dong Zhuo's army comes to attack, let's not talk about Hangu Pass for the time being. Longxi County will send heavy troops to shock Xiliang."
"And Liu Yan of Yizhou obviously had the intention of being unjust. Once he took Hanzhong, if he wanted to take Chang'an, he would have to pass the Qinling Mountains. The roads of the Qinling Mountains were rugged. The lord could set up 8,000 troops in the Wugong area, which was enough to resist the Yizhou army."
A map behind the screen was exposed in front of everyone, and Lu Bu even listened to Jia Xu's remarks while nodding on the map.
On the map, Lu Bu's current situation is clear at a glance. Once Dong Zhuo comes to attack, he is afraid that the other two forces will not be idle.
"Lord, what are you afraid of? Although the troops in Yizhou are strong, the Qinling Mountains are steep in the eight hundred miles. The last one will bring 5,000 troops to stop them."
Compared with the solemn judgment of civil officials, military generals are much simpler, just like water comes and earth comes and covers soldiers comes and generals come and stops them.
Zhang Liao, Huang Zhong and others, who were slightly visionary, frowned, not because they were afraid of the enemy, but because they had a lot of troops and how to stop them.
