It was already February 189.

This winter is not easy for Liu Hong.

This time the cold he contracted was particularly severe.

There was no sign of recovery the whole winter.

But it's not that there's no good news at all.

The rebellion in Liangzhou finally brought hope to Liu Hong and others.

Ten days ago.

The Liangzhou rebels besieged Chencang County for more than eighty days without success. Exhausted, they chose to retreat.

Huangfu Song made a prompt decision and ordered the pursuit.

Dong Zhuo can be regarded as a general who has fought a hundred battles, and he can naturally tell the opponent's military strength through music.

Plus Li Ru’s advice by his side.

He immediately went to dissuade Huangfu Song and said: "General Huangfu, the last general thought that the rebel army was retreating at this time, just as he said, don't pursue the poor invaders, and don't force them if they return to the masses, so ordering the pursuit at this time is probably not a good idea.

ah."

Huangfu Song did not become suspicious when he heard this, but regarded it as Dong Zhuo's proper advice to him.

He shook his head and said: "I already know about Zhong Ying's worries, but at this time, those rebels are not able to respond to these words."

"It has been besieging Chencang for a long time and has come all the way from afar. It is a tired and exhausted army. It has not made any achievements and its morale is even more disorganized."

"At this time, they are not poor bandits, but just a group of rabble who have lost their courage and will to fight. I will lead my army to attack them and we will definitely win!"

Later, Huangfu Song was afraid of missing the military plane, so he ordered Dong Zhuo, who seemed to be still doubtful, to come to the rear.

He led his army in quick pursuit.

Seeing Huangfu Song who had already led his army to pursue him, Dong Zhuo felt secretly resentful.

In fact, he had already thought of two ways.

It would be best if Huangfu Song listened to his advice.

All he had to do was use a small plan to ensure that the rebels who could be provoked would invade again in a month or so.

What if Huangfu Song didn't listen to his advice and insisted on pursuing him?

Then he would naturally volunteer.

How could he not want such a free contribution?

With this merit, as long as he works well, he might not be able to take Huangfu Song's place and stay in Liangzhou to lead the army to guard the border in preparation for enemy attacks.

In this way, it completely achieved its original purpose.

But Huangfu Song didn't even give him a chance.

Not only did she not listen to his advice, but she also forcefully took away this opportunity to make meritorious deeds.

How could Dong Zhuo not be angry or annoyed by this?

After the news was sent back that the Liangzhou rebels were defeated and returned after being killed by Huangfu Song.

Liu Hong naturally felt very relieved.

Remembering that Dong Zhuo was a member of his family and a very capable member of his family, he directly issued an edict to appoint Dong Zhuo as the pastor of Bingzhou.

He was ordered to transfer his troops to Huangfu Song and then set off.

In Chencang City.

After Dong Zhuo received this edict, he frowned for a while.

"Wen You, now that the edict has arrived, what do you think we should do?"

Li Ru had already made up his mind. When Dong Zhuo asked, he smiled and asked: "It's not a difficult matter at this time, but I don't know how the lord views this Bingzhou Mu?"

Dong Zhuo thought for a while and said: "It is naturally good to be a pastor in a state. The status of a pastor in a state can be said to be respected."

Regarding the appointment of the state pastor and the rights held by the state pastor.

Everyone in the world can see it very clearly.

What's more, Dong Zhuo has people like Li Ru who will analyze all the facts for him.

He has long been familiar with what Zhou Mu actually represents.

If you ask Dong Zhuo if he is willing, Dong Zhuo will naturally be very willing.

But now that he was asked to go to Bingzhou to take up the post of Bingzhou Shepherd, but he was not allowed to leave with his soldiers, he felt a little unhappy in his heart.

You must know that Bingzhou is not a good place.

Nowadays, although the Xiongnu may not have rebelled yet, in fact, the court has long been unable to suppress these guys.

Not long ago, Zhang Yi, the governor of Bingzhou, was beheaded.

The imperial court was unable to restrain and govern this issue, which further fueled the ambitions of the Southern Xiongnu who had surrendered to the Han Dynasty.

Now let Dong Zhuo be the pastor of this state, the meaning is very clear.

Liu Hong just wanted to use a strong man like Dong Zhuo to scare the Huns who were managing Bingzhou.

Unfortunately.

Liu Hong misjudged the person.

How could Dong Zhuo be such a responsible and capable loyal minister?

If normal historical development had followed, it would have been impossible for Dong Zhuo to take office in Bingzhou.

There must be Li Ru behind him who gave him advice, and finally he was able to stay around Luoyang all the way, which actually made him reach the top.

However, now there is an extra Qin Yu in the world.

Li Ru's thoughts are also quite different from what he used to be.

After knowing Dong Zhuo's intentions, Li Ru had a plan in mind.

Compared with his previous ideas, Dong Zhuo's current decision is obviously easier to implement.

He immediately said: "Since my lord thinks that Bingzhou Mu is a good job, it's okay to just take the post directly."

Dong Zhuo said in surprise: "Shall I go directly to the post of Bingzhou Mu? Then if I leave like this, it will be a long way from this important place in the capital. If I want to help you in the future, it will be difficult, right?"

Li Ru said: "My Lord, I don't know. It would be good if we have 20,000 troops. But if we use 20,000 troops to support you, there will naturally be two problems."

"The first is that we have a large number of troops and are eyeing this important place in the capital. If I put it more seriously, it would be regarded as conspiracy."

"Even if we take a few steps back, we will inevitably lose our righteousness in the end."

"The second is that if we use 20,000 troops to help you, the final result may be just the icing on the cake. Your troops are strong, so how can we be short of our 20,000 troops?"

"It would be better for us to go to Bingzhou first, capture the Bingzhou Mu, and then subdue the southern Xiongnu. Then we can use all the Xiongnu troops to help you and complete your unparalleled feat."

After Li Ru finished speaking, Dong Zhuo fell silent.

Faced with Dong Zhuo's silence, Li Ru narrowed his eyes slightly.

He suddenly felt that he might have done something wrong.

Just when this idea came to Li Ru's mind.

Dong Zhuo already pretended not to care much and asked: "Wen You, according to your opinion, the world is about to change, right? The time of change will not be in the near future? I heard that Your Majesty has been sick recently.

, seems something is wrong?"

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! He casually rubbed the sapphire ring on his finger.

Li Ru's heart "thumped".

Speaking of which, he did have such plans and ideas originally.

He wished he could wait for such an opportunity one day.

Then he tried his best to assist Dong Zhuo and ascend to the real center stage of the Han Dynasty.

But now, he no longer had the original thoughts, but Dong Zhuo had such thoughts in his heart.

can only say.

He still underestimated the desire for power in people's hearts.

change of weather!

Moreover, it was a change in the Han Dynasty's court.

With 20,000 troops at hand, it is possible to change the entire world.

After Dong Zhuo noticed some clues about this kind of thing, he naturally couldn't help but feel excited in his heart.

It is impossible for him to become emperor.

But he still hopes to become a powerful minister who controls everything!
