Chapter 477

Dong Zhuo took the wine bottle from Li Ru, drank the wine and said, "my son-in-law, I regret that I didn't listen to you at the beginning. I'm more wary of Lu Bu, the white eyed wolf. I didn't expect that he would seize Tongguan now. What should he do if he opened Tongguan and put Guandong princes in it?"

For Dong Zhuo's refusal to admit that he was reluctant to give up a woman, which led to his antagonism with Lv Bu, Li Ru kept silent. For a wise man like Li Ru, he will never regret the past. He will only seriously think about how to better deal with the present. Moreover, Li Ru also knows his father-in-law very well. It's good to be able to tell him that he regretted not being on guard against Lv Bu. After Dong Zhuo calmed down a little, Li Ru went forward and said, "Taishi, in fact, LV Budong's escape from our army is not only harmless, but also beneficial."

"Well, what do you say about my son-in-law?" Although Dong Zhuo was quick witted, he had limited intelligence. He didn't respond to Li Ru's words for a long time, so he asked quickly.

"Taishi, think about it. Lv Bu betrayed Ding Yuan first, and then Taishi. In the eyes of the scholars in Guandong, he was just a villain who didn't believe his words. Therefore, this time Lu Bu fled to the East, he must have had several fierce battles with the vassals of Guandong. The grand master thought that for our army, was it profit or loss? " Li Rudao;

"ha ha ha... The wise son-in-law's words are reasonable, so let LV Buer and all the thieves in Guandong bite the dog. " Dong Zhuo laughs, and finally no longer decides to pursue Lu Bu.

"Yes, it's driving away tigers and fighting against Wolves. Therefore, not only can we not pursue Lu Bu now, but we should also order Zhang Ji to let go of the two counties of Mianchi and Xin'an in Hongnong, and surrender the two cities to Lu Bujun to watch the battle between Lu Bu and Huangfu Chaobo in Luoyang. If Lu Bu wins, let him take Luoyang. When Luoyang is broken, it will not satisfy Lu Bu's taste. After a period of rest, Lu Bujun will send troops to Guandong, which will turn Guandong upside down . If Huangfu surpasses Bo Sheng, he will be killed and injured severely. In time, we will encourage Nanyang Yuanshu or Hanoi Zhangyang to send troops to Luoyang and beat Luoyang to pieces. No matter who takes over Luoyang, we can't let him develop Luoyang, otherwise it will become a threat to Chang'an. " Li Rudao;

"yes, my son-in-law has a wonderful plan!" Therefore, Dong Zhuo asked Li Ru to send an order. On the one hand, he asked Li Bi and Li Su to guard Huayin tightly to prevent Lu Bu's army from fleeing westward. On the other hand, he asked people to go eastward along the Wei River to the Yellow River and reach Hongnong. He sent an order to Zhang Ji to shrink his defense, withdraw the troops of Xin'an and Yanchi, and give the two cities to Lu Bu's army to lead them eastward into Hangu.

Of course, Zhang Ji will not directly let the city, but let Zhang Ji privately send people to contact Lv Bu. He said that he was originally a Xiliang family, and knew that Lv Bu would not stay in Hongnong for too long, so he did not want to fight with Lv Bu army. At that time, he had no alternative but to lose both sides. Therefore, Zhang Ji was willing to give way to two cities of Jinchi new city, and let Lv Bu army stay temporarily until Lv Bu army attacked Luo After Yang, return it to Zhang Ji.

When Dong Zhuo and Li Ru make the decision to drive the tigers and fight the wolves, Lu Bu meets a man in Tongguan, a man entangled with him in his fate -- Chen Gong. Although great changes have been made in the game, I don't know what Nu Wa thought. She sent Chen Gong to him when Lv Bu was defeated and fled. Then, two fateful men who lived and died together finally met at Tongguan.

After half an hour's conversation, Lu Bu, who never understood the color of the literati, actually worshipped the Chen palace as his military adviser, so his actions were no longer arbitrary. After being worshipped as a military adviser by Lu Bu, Chen Gong finally negotiated with Lu Bu and his generals all night. Lu Bu's army now has nearly 50000 troops. After the discussion between Chen Gong and Lu Bu, they all felt that Hongnong was not a place to stay for a long time, so on the one hand, they arranged several generals to lead 5000 soldiers and 5000 cavalry soldiers to guard Tongguan, and then other soldiers and horses quickly occupied Hu County, plus 5000 garrison of Hu County.

Lu Bu's army reached 50000. In addition to 10000 troops in Tongguan, Hu County left 3000 troops and their families. Then the other 32000 troops went straight to Hongnong city. If they could capture Hongnong, it would be better. If they could not, they only needed to lead 20000 cavalry troops to monitor Hongnong city's troops. The other armies captured Shanxian, Jinchi and Xin'an to the east of Hongnong, and there were several counties With the support of the city, Lu Bu's army estimated that there should be no problem in three or five months' grain supply.

Then, he made tens of thousands of troops and went straight to Hangu pass. It's well known that Luoyang's defense is empty now. Chen Gong believes that with the courage of Lu Bu, Zhang Liao and tens of thousands of troops as support, he can completely break into Hangu in one or two months. When it comes time, he can capture Luoyang completely. Once in Luoyang, Lu Bu's army can recuperate for several months. After its strength is restored, tens of thousands of troops will leave the tiger prison. Chen Gong believes that with Lu Bu's courage, military strength and his own wisdom, Guandong's rich land can be easily obtained. In order to be on the safe side, Chen Gong also found two helpers and several helpers for Lv Bu.

Chen Gong was the same as in history. After Zhongmou helped Cao Cao escape, he saw that Cao Cao killed LV Bohe's family. Later, although he knew it was a mistake, he said that "I'd rather bear the burden of the people in the world than the people in the world". Although he finally helped Cao Cao to fight, he didn't go out with Cao Cao, but stayed in Chen Liucheng. Without thinking about the aftermath of Lu Bo's extravagance, Cao Cao's desire to seize Chen Liucheng again disappointed Chen Gong. First he stayed in Chen Liu for a while, and then he went all the way west, ready to go to Chang'an.Later, when passing through Luoyang, Chen Gong stayed in Luoyang for a while, but he didn't let Huangfu Chaobo find out. After the Luoyang army beat back the attack of the yellow scarf thieves, Chen Gong went through several counties around Luoyang. After Luoyang sent troops to control several counties, he headed west to Chang'an again. He didn't expect that soon after he left Tongguan, before he arrived at Chang'an, he got Lu Bu's intention to kill Dong Zhuo. He fled to the East. After a little thought, Chen Gong resolutely turned East and went to Tong'an Guantou Lvbu.

Along the way, Chen Gong thought about LV Bujun's Dilemma and the way out, and finally found that there were only two ways out for LV Bujun: one was to go to Luoyang, get out of the tiger prison, and herd horses to pass east; the other was that once Hangu pass could not be attacked, he had to use Zhang Yangjun's help to cross the Yellow River into Bingzhou. In both cases, Chen Gong carefully considered the overall plan, which is why Lu Bu had to worship him as a military adviser within half an hour of talking with him.
