As soon as Lu Bu finished speaking, Dong Zhuo and Li Ru's expressions changed drastically.
"Plop!"
Li Ru sat down on the ground, his eyes wide open and he couldn't believe it.
"boom!"
"How could this happen? Why didn't Cao Cao lead an army to pursue him?"
Dong Zhuo kicked the weapons around him away with a look of rage on his face.
In his opinion, Lu Bu went to ambush him personally, and even if he couldn't kill Cao Cao, he would cause heavy losses to Cao Cao's army.
Lu Bu now told himself that he didn't see The shadow of Cao Cao's army.
In this way, all the ambush set up became useless, and the bamboo basket was in vain.
"General Lu, didn't those decoys left at the rear of the army work?"
Li Ru stood up and pulled Lu Bu's armor, his face was very ugly.
Lu Bu looked at the faces of Dong Zhuo and Li Ru, and said with a wry smile on his face:
"The dozens of carts of money prepared by Mr. Cao Cao have been taken away by Cao Cao’s army."
"However, after Cao Cao led his army to rob the money, he did not continue the pursuit."
"Cao Cao led his army back to Luoyang City. The ambush set by the general in front was completely useless."
After hearing Lu Bu's words, Li Ru took a few steps back and sat down on the ground.
He was worried that Cao Cao would not be fooled, so he deliberately left more than a dozen carts of money just to allow Cao Cao to continue pursuing.
Unexpectedly, Cao Cao seized the money and returned the same way. Chase again.
Not only did his strategy prevent Cao Cao from falling into the trap, but he also gave Cao Cao more than a dozen carts of money.
"snort! Cao Cao did not continue the pursuit so decisively and returned to Luoyang City."
"It must be the trick from the counselor next to him, otherwise Cao Cao would not give up the opportunity to continue the pursuit. Dong
Zhuo said with a very ugly face. All he could think of was the counselor beside Cao Cao.
Only he could make Cao Cao so decisive. This time he lost to this counselor again.
Li Ru listened to Dong Zhuo's words and recalled what happened. Everything.
This time, his plan must have been seen through by this counselor.
This counselor must have told Cao Cao that as long as he got some money, he would not pursue too deeply.
Starting from Sishui Pass, Li Ru, who had always considered the most powerful strategist, , repeatedly lost to Cao Cao's counselor.
Sishui Pass and Hulao Pass were lost, and Dong Zhuo was forced to move the capital with the emperor.
He failed to burn the palace, and ambush Cao Cao on the way back was in vain.
Now Dong Zhuo is already a little dissatisfied with himself, as he has repeatedly lost to this counselor
"puff!"
"Wenyou!"
"gentlemen!"
"Send the message to the imperial doctor quickly!"
Li Ru was so angry that he spurted out a mouthful of blood and fainted on the ground.
When Dong Zhuo and Lu Bu saw Li Ru vomiting blood and fainted on the ground, his face changed drastically and he quickly called the imperial doctor.
Although Dong Zhuo was dissatisfied with Li Ru, he still had to rely on Li Ru. Confucian.
He has now moved the capital to Chang'an with the emperor. Without Li Ru to assist him, even with Chang'an as a barrier, he would not be able to withstand so many princes.
"Ahem!"
Under the treatment of the imperial doctor, Li Ru quickly regained consciousness.
Li Ru's face was pale and decadent. He looked at Dong Zhuo and said:
"The Grand Master can only defend Chang'an now, and it doesn't matter how the other princes fight."
"Especially Cao Cao, the Grand Master would rather not provoke Cao Cao for the time being."
Li Ru said with a wry smile on his face.
He is no longer as high-spirited as before. Cao Cao's counselor hit him too hard.
He didn't know how to deal with this counselor next. Fortunately, Dong Zhuo is in Chang'an.
Li Ru Knowing that the world is in chaos, these princes will fight each other for their own power.
He will not form an alliance to attack Dong Zhuo. He thinks that Dong Zhuo is now nestling on the other side of Chang'an, watching the fire and waiting for an opportunity.
Dong Zhuo nodded slightly when he heard Li Ru's words. He also moved the capital to Chang'an this time. He was prepared.
There was countless food and grass in the city of Chang'an. He believed that if he did not provoke other princes, they would not come to conquer him.
How these princes fought to compete for the city had nothing to do with him.
A few soldiers carried Li Confucianism entered Chang'an City, and Dong Zhuo also entered Chang'an with his ministers.
From this moment on, the allied forces of the princes conquered Dong Zhuo. The war for hegemony among the princes began!
The news that Luoyang City was breached by the allied forces of the princes, and that Dong Zhuo took the emperor hostage and moved the capital.
Very soon. The news spread throughout other cities, causing an uproar.
Whether it was the scholar family or the princes in the cities, they were discussing the matter with their own people. There was a relatively large tavern in Yingchuan County.
Since the princes' coalition was defeated by Lu Bu, Cao Cao Starting with the defeat of Lu Bu.
There are many scholars in the tavern every day. When these scholars come to the tavern, they are not discussing poems and songs.
Instead, they are discussing everything that happened when the princes conquered Dong Zhuo.
"Great news for everyone~.!"
"The coalition forces of the princes captured Hulao Pass and entered Luoyang City. Dong Zhuo was defeated by the coalition forces and escaped from Luoyang City in embarrassment."
A scholar looked at the people in the tavern with a happy face.
"Unexpectedly, the coalition of princes actually invaded Luoyang, and the old thief Dong Zhuo was nothing more than that."
"It's a pity that the coalition of princes did not kill Dong Zhuo and let Dong Zhuo escape."
"That's not what they said. Dong Zhuo has escaped from Luoyang and his death is not far away."
"The coalition of princes invaded Luoyang City, which was a great achievement!"
Some people in the tavern had a look of excitement on their faces when they heard the scholar's words.
Dong Zhuo was in Luoyang City, and being able to capture Luoyang City was a great victory in their eyes.
Xun Yu was sitting in the corner, drinking wine and eating side dishes. During this period, he also came to this tavern every day. He listened to the people in the tavern discussing what happened when the princes allied forces conquered Dong Zhuo.
Hearing the scholar's words, Xun Yu frowned slightly. The princes allied forces invaded Luoyang, and Dong Zhuo escaped.
Since Dong Zhuo escaped, Presumably he will bring the emperor and his ministers with him. The coalition of princes conquered Dong Zhuo just to rescue the emperor. What they got after attacking Luoyang was an empty city.
Escape from Luoyang
"It's too early for you to be happy. I heard that Dong Zhuo fled Chang'an and took the emperor and other ministers with him."
"In this way, no matter which city Dong Zhuo chooses, the emperor and ministers in this city will become the new capital."
"These princes attacked Dong Zhuo, but Dong Zhuo and the emperor had fled, and all the princes got was an empty city."
An old man with a goatee looked at the excited scholars and said with a hint of melancholy on his face.
After hearing the old man's words, everyone was no longer excited.
The old man was right, the emperor and the ministers were not. After being rescued, all the coalition forces got was an empty city.
"You may not know, but this time Dong Zhuo left Luoyang with the emperor"
"It was said that the palace was going to be burned down, so that after the coalition forces of the princes entered Luoyang, all they got was ruins."
A scholar looked at the other people in the tavern and lowered his voice a little.
"What? The old thief Dong Zhuo actually wants to burn down the palace?"
"The palace is a symbol of the emperor. How dare Dong Zhuo burn it down?"
"If the palace is burned down, in addition to the old thief Dong Zhuo, the eighteen princes will also be responsible."
Everyone in the tavern had furious looks on their faces, even though the emperor was controlled by Dong Zhuo. The palace represents the authority of the emperor. Dong Zhuo's daring to burn down the palace seemed to them to be challenging the emperor's authority.
The wine in Xun Yu's glass was also because of His hands shook and he spilled a few drops, and Xun Yu's face turned ugly.
He knew that Dong Zhuo and Li Ru were brave and dared to poison the emperor.
Unexpectedly, they stillBurn down the palace and don’t care about the responsibilities of the people in the world at all
"Don't worry, the palace is intact."
"This is all the credit of the counselor beside Cao Cao. After capturing Hulao Pass, this counselor"
"Anticipating that Dong Zhuo might move the capital with the emperor, the counselor was worried that Li Ru and Dong Zhuo would set fire to the palace."
"He sent his generals and some elite soldiers to ambush outside Luoyang City. Once something happened to Luoyang City,"
"These people moved into Luoyang City to protect the palace from being burned down by thieves."
"The counselor beside Cao Cao is not only extremely resourceful, but also admirable for his righteousness!"
After a scholar finished speaking, there was a look of admiration on his face.
Others were stunned when they heard the scholar's words. The counselor next to Cao Cao actually thought that Li Ru would burn the palace.
Arrange people in advance to protect the palace. How powerful this counselor is. ?
Thinking of this, there was a hint of admiration on the faces of these people. It was a great thing to be able to protect the palace.
Xun Yu also had a hint of respect on his face when he heard the scholar's words. He was also more interested in the counselor beside Cao Cao. (See For exciting novels, go to Feilu Novel Network!)
Only a poisonous man like Li Ru dared to think of setting fire to the palace. The counselor next to Cao Cao actually thought of this.
This is enough to show that the counselor next to Cao Cao also thought of it. A ruthless character.
He had become interested after hearing about this counselor's deeds in assisting Cao Cao in the tavern.
Today, he was even more interested in this counselor after hearing the discussions among the people in the tavern.
"Dong Zhuo has fled Luoyang, and the eighteen princes' campaign against Dong Zhuo can be said to be over."
"These princes have returned to their own cities. If you want to show your ambition, you can go and join these princes."
A scholar said with a smile on his face.
Most of the people in this tavern are scholars, and everyone wants to display their ambitions.
Now that the world has begun to become chaotic, it is an opportunity for these people to display their ambitions.
Some scholars are looking down and thinking. , which prince should he go to.
Xun Yu drank a glass of wine with a smile on his face, put the money on the table and left the tavern.
He was going to Chenliu to meet Cao Cao and this counselor. Originally, he wanted to live in seclusion for the rest of his life. Here.
Now that he has made another move, he first goes to Cao Cao to find out.
Jingzhou Governor's Mansion! []
In the study, Liu Biao looked at the brocade cloth in his hand and frowned.
Apart from Liu Biao, there were only Kuai Liang and Cai Mao in the study. Two people.
Seeing Liu Biao's expression, Kuai Liang and Cai Mao looked at each other with a trace of doubt.
The master had been looking at this brocade cloth for a while, and he had always frowned.
"Lord, is there anything wrong with what is written on this brocade cloth?"
Kuai Liang looked at Liu Biao and spoke first.
He was Liu Biao's most trusted civil servant. Among all the civil servants, he was the only one who dared to disturb Liu Biao when he was thinking.
"Why!"
"The brothers Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu sent someone to give me a letter."
"Dong Zhuo has fled Luoyang with the emperor, and the coalition of princes to conquer Dong Zhuo has ended"
"The princes from all walks of life returned to their cities with their armies, and Sun Jian also led his army back to Jiangdong."
"Sun Jian must pass through Jingzhou if he wants to return to Jiangdong. The brothers Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu"
"The letter sent said,"Let me send troops to intercept and kill Sun Jian halfway!""
Liu Biao put down the brocade cloth in his hand and looked very ugly.
Kuai Liang and Cai Hao became silent for a moment when they heard Liu Biao's words. After a while,
Kuai Liang looked at Liu Biao and spoke first:
"The fierce tiger Sun Jian had strong soldiers and horses, and he also achieved great success in conquering Dong Zhuo this time."
"The brothers Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu are known as the Four Generations and Three Dukes, and their troops are also very large."
"The Lord must think carefully, otherwise it will bring disaster to Jingzhou."
Hearing Kuai Liang's words, Liu Biao had a hint of helplessness on his face:
"How could I not know what Kuai Liang said?"
"Although Jingzhou is rich, it is far behind Sun Jian or Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu in terms of military and horse power."
"No matter who the three of them are, I can't afford to offend them."
After hearing what Liu Biao and Kuai Liang said, Cai Mao looked at Liu Biao and said:
"Lord, this is the letter sent by the brothers Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu."
"Apart from letting him intercept and kill Sun Jian in Jingzhou, is there no benefit to the lord at all?"
"Yes, my lord, intercepting and killing Liu Biao is a big deal."
"The brothers Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu would not deny any benefits to their lord, right?"
Kuai Liang heard Cai Mao's words and echoed them.
"If you didn’t tell me, I would have forgotten it. Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu agreed."
"As long as Sun Jian is intercepted, the two of them promise to provide me with food, grass and money based on the reputation of the Yuan Shu family."
"Once Sun Jian takes revenge on Jingzhou, the two of them will also send troops to support him."
Liu Biao looked at Kuai Liang and Cai Mao (Wang Nuo's) and told him the conditions given by Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu.
Cai Hao's eyes lit up when he heard Liu Biao's words, and he cupped his hands and said:
"Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu sent this letter. The lord has no way out."
"Allowing Sun Jian to return to Jiangdong will offend Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu"
"If you intercept and kill Sun Jian, you will offend Sun Jian"
"Although Tiger Sun Jian has elite soldiers and generals under his command, there is still some gap compared with the soldiers and horses under the brothers Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu."
"The brothers Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu also promised their lord the support of food, grass, money, and even soldiers and horses in the future."
"Sun Jian has always been eyeing Jingzhou, and he will definitely attack Jingzhou once he has the opportunity."
"The final general believed that his lord agreed to Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu's request and intercepted and killed Sun Jian in Jingzhou."
Cai Hao said with a hint of cruelty on his face.
"The minister felt that General Cai Mao's words were reasonable, but Sun Jian repeatedly provoked his lord."
"Jiangdong and Jingzhou are already on the same page. In this case, it would be better to intercept Sun Jian halfway."
"Once Sun Jian died, Jiang Dong would be unable to fight against his lord."
Kuai Liang echoed what Cai Mao said.
When Liu Biao heard what Kuai Liang and Cai Mao said, he felt it made sense.
These two people were also the people he trusted the most.
"I decided to intercept and kill Sun Jian, Cai Mao, you will be responsible for this matter."
"The general will obey! Liu
Biao looked at Cai Mao and issued the order. He decided to intercept and kill Sun Jian on the way. On the way from Luoyang to Jiangdong, Sun Jian took the lead, followed by Sun Ce, Huang Gai and other generals. Behind him was his army, and other princes left Luoyang with their armies. Sun Jian also left Luoyang with his army.
"Father, ahead is Jingzhou"
"Father's army can return to Jiangdong by boat by water."
Sun Ce rode his war horse to Sun Jian's side, pointed to the front and said
"Bo Fu sent the order, but the army did not return to Jiangdong from Jingzhou."
