The most powerful general in the Three Kingdoms

"Please sit down, sir."Li Ru asked Wen Sheng to sit down and at the same time, he ordered the servant to bring tea.

Wen Sheng was not too polite. He was unrestrained, neither humble nor overbearing, giving people a very natural look.

Li Ru also had a good impression of Wen Sheng. He also gained a new understanding of Zhou Cheng's servant.

After the tea was placed in front of Wen Sheng, the servant left.

Li Ru said:"I have important matters in Luoyang and it will be difficult to leave in a short time."

Although Zhou Cheng's place is indeed a good place, Li Ru is not in a hurry to go. Wen Sheng said with a smile:"My lord, before leaving, specifically asked me to give this letter to your husband. Wen

Sheng took out the letter and handed it to Li Ru.

While reading the letter, Li Ru's expression changed significantly, his brows furrowed slightly, and his eyes showed a look of surprise.

Li Ru's expression changes were all reflected by Wen Sheng's. While observing,

Wen Sheng said:"My lord is a wise master. He knows people well and uses them well. He is talented and has high ambitions. If he can be used by the lord, he will show what he has learned in this life. Why stay in Luoyang City and plan for a group of common men."

Li Ru put down the letter in his hand and said with emotion:"The general trend of the world is under the control of Duke Zhou.""

Zhou Cheng had already mentioned the problems of Li Jue and Guo Si in his letter, and also predicted the cholera that would occur in the future. After

Dong Zhuo's death, Xiliang's army and horses had been severely weakened, and now they had lost the ability to intimidate all the states and counties in the world. Ability.

Moreover, Li Jue, Guo Si, Zhang Ji, Fan Chou and others each had their own selfish motives, and they were dissatisfied with each other and lost their cohesion.

On the surface, there are still hundreds of thousands of Xiliang troops and horses.

But in fact, Xiliang has The Liang army and horses are already in disarray.

The conflict between Li Jue and Guo Si is the trigger for the complete collapse of the Xiliang army and horses.

At the same time, it is not expected that Zhang Ji can defend Hangu Pass now.

The biggest problem of the Xiliang army and horses is that Supply of food and fodder.

Ever since Dong Zhuo entered Luoyang and the princes of the Eighteen Towns in Guandong attacked Dong Zhuo, wars have not stopped.

Moreover, the Huns, moth thieves, and Xiliang soldiers and horses plundered, causing the counties to be displaced, and the people were homeless, and the people were in dire straits. There are hundreds of thousands of soldiers and horses in Xiliang, and they eat horses every day. Just relying on the warehouse near Luoyang is just sitting on nothing. In addition, when Zhou Cheng entered Luoyang, he also plundered a lot, and there was less food and fodder available in Luoyang.

Now the princes of the world, people Everyone has selfish motives, and only the old man Liu Biao is left, who continues to transport grain to Luoyang every year.

After thinking for a while, Li Ru said again,"I am willing to go beyond the Great Wall, but I need to make some more plans before leaving. Wen

Sheng pondered for a few seconds and was about to persuade him.

Li Ru said,"This plan will benefit Duke Zhou's great cause.""

Wen Sheng looked at Li Ru, who looked full of confidence. He nodded in agreement and at the same time sent someone to deliver the letter back.

……

Early the next morning, Li Ru got up early, put on his clothes, and went to attend the morning court.

Although Chao Gang was abnormal, the civil and military ministers still gathered in the palace on time.

Along the way, Yang Biao and others deliberately avoided Li Ru and did not want to say hello to Li Ru, as if Li Ru was nothing.

Li Ru didn't care either.

Although Li Ru does not have a formal official position, Li Ru is Dong Zhuo's son-in-law and is now an adviser to Li Jue, Guo Si and others.

Therefore, even though Liu Xie didn't want to see Li Ru, Li Ru could still appear in front of him.

Today, as in recent days, Guo Si and Li Jue each entered the palace with large armies.

The troops on both sides were at war with each other, as if they were about to fight at any moment.

At this time, Li Ru began to report:"Your Majesty, the grain in the granary around Luoyang is less than one million dan, and the counties under the jurisdiction have been in war for a long time, and the people have been displaced. The grain in the granary may not be enough for a few months. We need to order the states and counties to send it." The food reaches Luoyang."

When Li Ru said there was not enough food, Li Jue and Guo Si were like cats whose tails were stepped on.

They were all busy fighting among themselves, but they forgot to care about food.

Two million seems like a lot, but if a soldier eats two liters of food a day for two months, he will consume 1.2 shi.

Hundreds of thousands of Xiliang troops and horses, how much food will be consumed in two months!

Moreover, in addition to Xiliang's army and horses, including Luoyang's civil and military ministers and the people in Sili, they also had to eat.

But then again.

If we control the grain, don't we control all the Xiliang troops and horses?

Li Jue and Guo Si thought of this almost at the same time.

Li Ru, like Jia Xu, is a poisonous person.

After Dong Zhuo's death, he no longer had any expectations for Li Jue, Guo Si and others.

Zhou Cheng extended an olive branch, and Zhou Cheng had great talents and great ambitions to conquer the world.

Therefore, Li Ru planned to use Li Jue, Guo Si and others to cause harm to the Central Plains for a while.

The more chaotic the Central Plains is, the easier it will be to conquer.

The more chaotic the Central Plains becomes, the more headaches the princes of the Central Plains will have.

Attacking each other, the refugees lost their homes, the fields were barren, and there was no peace in the Central Plains.

One is declining and the other is growing. Zhou Chenghu is stationed outside the Great Wall, developing steadily, stationing his fields and raising his army, and can go south to sweep the world at any time.

This was Li Ru's gift to Zhou Cheng, and it was also a way to show off his talents.

Li Ru believes that Zhou Cheng is willing to see all this.
