However, Dong Zhuo also knew that now for himself, the top priority was to solve Han Sui's group of traitors first, and then he could do other things. And to get rid of the traitors led by Han Sui is his most important task at present.

"The top priority now is to exterminate Han Sui's gang of traitors, and as for other things, it's time to take one step at a time. However, we must seize such a great opportunity, so that we can obtain greater and more benefits! ”

After listening to Dong Zhuo's words, Li Ru said: "The lord is wise, in this way, our side should first exterminate Han Sui's traitor party, and then wait and see what happens in Luoyang." Let Zhang Rang and He Jin go to their dog-eat-dog, while we sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight, just let everything be under our control!! ”

"Hahaha, good, good!" Dong Zhuo said with a smile.

At this time, a weird smile appeared on the corner of Li Ru's mouth, and those who really knew him knew that whenever Li Ru and Li Wenyou made this expression, it meant that someone must be unlucky. As for who the unlucky person is this time, needless to say, everyone also knows it, that is Han Sui Han Wenyue, can there be other candidates besides him.

At this time, there were only Dong Zhuo and Li Ru in the big tent, and Dong Zhuo naturally noticed Li Ru's expression, so he hurriedly asked, "What is Wen You's plan?" ”

Li Ru smiled and nodded, "Lord Wisdom, Confucianism does have an idea!" ”

"Will the plan be released?"

After hearing about the changes in Luoyang, Dong Zhuo had always been a delaying policy towards Han Sui, so that he could get more and greater benefits from the imperial court. But after knowing the situation in Luoyang, Dong Zhuo really wanted to solve Han Sui as soon as possible at this time, and then he had the kung fu to sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight, so as to respond to all changes without change, find a favorable opportunity, and enter Luoyang.

"My lord, the Confucian strategy is not difficult, that is, it is now in the ...... Our army will ...... So you can ......"

Li Ru made his thoughts and his lord clear, and Dong Zhuo frowned while listening, and sometimes nodded, which naturally showed his approval of Li Ru's strategy, as for frowning, it meant that Dong Zhuo still did not have complete confidence in this plan. Dong Zhuo also understands that Li Ru is now a dangerous move, which is also in line with his character, he can march to fight a war, use soldiers to take risks, and no one has that absolute confidence.

Who is Li Ru, he naturally saw his lord's worries, only to see him smile faintly, "The lord must feel that Confucianism is a little risky, yes, but it is so." In fact, the person our army is worried about is not the Korean Covenant, but Cheng Gong Ying'er, the Korean Covenant is famous in Xizhou, but its people are still a little worse in terms of military strategy. But Cheng Gongying is not, after all these years, I believe that the lord also knows that he is the fierce enemy of our army! ”

Dong Zhuo couldn't stop nodding, isn't that what happened, if there was no Cheng Gongying, as long as Li Ru moved his wrist, I believe that Han Wenyue would definitely have no good fruit to eat. But because the traitor is there, Cheng Gongying is there, so he has to be cautious, for fear of letting the traitor seize the opportunity.

"Wen You thinks, what should happen at this time?"

Dong Zhuo had also thought about sending someone to assassinate Cheng Gongying before, but after he knew that Cheng Gongying was protected by Han Sui more tightly than himself, he gave up, and he had no chance at all. Now that Li Ru has brought up the issue of Cheng Gongying again, Dong Zhuo believes that Li Ru can put it on his feet, then he must have an idea, or he can't just say it.

"My lord, Confucianism's idea is simple, it's nothing more than a discordant ear!"

"Is Wen You sure about this?"

"Yes, sixty percent! Confucianism thinks that we should be like this......" Li Ru told Dong Zhuo about his plan of discord.

"Okay, so I'll leave everything to Wenyou!"

"The Lord is serious, and Confucianism is duty-bound!!"

－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－

In the Assassin's Mansion in Longxian County, Hanyang, Ma Chao held the secret report sent from Luoyang tightly in his hand, and at this time, a bright light flashed in his eyes, and he didn't know what he was thinking there.

Suddenly, he raised his eyebrows and said to himself: "Is the time ripe, Dong Zhuo, don't you want to disappoint me!" ”

After speaking, Ma Chao picked up the pen and wrote two letters, the first letter was addressed to Qingzhou Guan Hai, first asked about the recent situation of the cottage, and then named Zang Ba to come to Longxian County and wanted to use him. And the second letter was written to Zang Ba, saying that there was something for him to do at this time, and he must come to Liangzhou immediately.

After writing the letter, Ma Chao sent it to the cottage in Guanhai, Qingzhou, and after the person left, Ma Chao picked up the pen again and began to write, this time not a letter, but a book. The letter to Liu Hong, the content of the book is very simple: His Majesty ordered the ministers to be the Liangzhou Assassin (now also called the state pastor) The time has not been short, and the ministers now live up to the expectations of His Majesty, and now Liangzhou Zhengzhou Taimin An, the people live and work in peace and contentment, in stark contrast to the previous (Han Sui's army is generally said to be at the junction of Liangzhou and Sili, but it should be in the scope of Sili, but not in Liangzhou).

At this time, traitors are still rampant, so the minister implores His Majesty to order his ministers to send troops to fight the thieves, in order to repay the country and His Majesty! The minister is the minister of the Han Dynasty, the minister of His Majesty, and also the son of man, the minister's father Ma Tenggong died tragically at the hands of traitors, the minister never dared to forget this, the time for revenge has come, the minister will slash the enemy, and I implore Your Majesty to give permission!

The above is the content of Ma Chao's letter to Liu Hong, as a courtier, he naturally comes first to the country and then to the family, which is right. And Ma Chao is a son of man, so if he doesn't mention revenge for his father at all, it is estimated that no one will believe it, that would be too fake. Liu Hongke has never felt that Ma Chao is a particularly righteous and selfless person, so this is right and in line with Ma Chao's character. So Ma Chao knew that after Liu Hong watched it, he would definitely be able to get his own play, there was no problem at all, and Ma Chao was still very confident in this.

After the book was also sent away, Ma Chao said in his heart, now he just waits for Zang Ba to come to Longxian County, and Liu Hong's holy decree.

In fact, now that Liu Hong is seriously ill, even if Ma Chao does not have a holy decree, he still sends troops to avenge his father, which is not impossible. But Ma Chao felt that he would definitely not be able to do that, Liu Hong was seriously ill, but it didn't mean that he didn't care about anything, at least Ma Chao still understood this.

Yes, even if he doesn't have a holy decree, but he also sends troops, it may be nothing after the worst, after all, he has his own reasoning and his own rhetoric, which is understandable. But after doing this, Ma Chaozhi said that he must be giving people a handle, and then troubles will come over at once. Ma Chao is actually not afraid of trouble, but if he can avoid it, then he still tries to avoid it. After all, Ma Chao also knows that he has not yet reached the level where everyone can be afraid, and he is now unable to ignore anyone, so he has not yet reached that point.

So in today's situation, you have to coil the dragon, and you have to lie down if it's the tiger, until one day you really do the dragon for nine days, when the tiger enters the mountains and forests, then you can do what you think about at that time.

A few days later, Zang Ba came to Longxian first, and after seeing Ma Chao, he hurriedly saluted, "My subordinates have seen the lord!" ”

Zang Ba's voice was louder than before, like a thunderbolt from the sky. Fortunately, Ma Chao is a person who has seen big storms and waves, and he has already been prepared, otherwise he will be easily startled by him.

"I heard that you are Xuangao, so I will call you Xuangao in the future! I haven't seen you for many years, Xuangao, don't you come to harm? ”

Zang Ba smiled, isn't it, he was only sixteen or seventeen years old when he first met the lord, and now he is twenty-four years old, and the expression is still given to him by his father, "The lord of labor is still hanging, and his subordinates have always been good." And the subordinate father often mentions the lord, as the saying goes, without the lord, there would be no subordinate father and son today. And the old father always instructed his subordinates to be sure to serve the Lord's work of dogs and horses!! ”

Ma Chao nodded secretly, he didn't make a mistake at all in taking the risk to save people. Whether it is Zang Jie or Zang Ba, this father and son are people who know how to repay their kindness. Of course, Zang Ba can worship himself as the master, and naturally there is also because he is also really convinced of him. However, I have to say that the events of the year, as well as his old father Zang Jie, these played the biggest role.

Ma Chao believes very much, even if he is just a mediocre person, then he believes that Zang Ba's father and son will still treat him the same way today. Because this is the Zang father and son, you say that they are stupid or tendons. Anyway, as long as they think it's right, then they will do it. And in fact, in ancient times, such people were not much more special, and this Ma Chao still knew about it.

Seeing Zang Ba at this time, Ma Chao also had to sigh a lot. At the beginning, Zang Ba was sixteen or seventeen, and he was three years younger than him. Now he is twenty-four years old, and he is twenty-one years old. At this time, it was already the fifth year of Zhongping, the year 188 AD.

Ma Chao stopped his emotion and said to Zang Ba: "There is an important thing to do this time, which must be completed by Xuangao!" ”

"All by the Lord's command! Over the years, my subordinates have lived a good life in the cottage, but I have to admit that there are still a lot of things missing! ”

"Oh? What does Xuan Gao mean? ”

"I don't dare to hide it from the lord, over the years, my subordinates have heard that the lord has exterminated the horse thieves in Yumen Pass and pacified the Yellow Turban Rebellion, all of which have made his subordinates enthusiastic, and they are always looking forward to following the lord to fight on the battlefield!"

"Okay, please rest assured that this matter will definitely be realized! But now there's one more thing for you to accomplish, and it's so important that you have to do it! ”

"No! It's all at the command of the Lord! ”

"That's right, Liangzhou...... So...... It was better to be so."

"No, my subordinates will live up to the trust of the lord!"

Ma Chao nodded, "Xuan Gao's going here is quite dangerous, after all, although it is not Longtan Tiger's Den, but it is ......"

"Please rest assured, my subordinates will complete the task!"

Ma Chao shook his head, "No, Xuan Gao, although the task is important, for me, Xuan Gao you are more important!" You must return safely, I am waiting for you, and don't forget that you still have to fight with me! ”

"No! The subordinates will return safely! ”

Zang Ba is still young now, and Ma Chao is actually telling the truth. "A thousand gold is easy to get, but it will be difficult to find", for him, no task is as important as a Zang Ba Zang Xuangao, so there is such a saying.
