Chapter 202: Borrowing a knife to kill

"What four words?" Liu Biao couldn't wait to ask.

"Borrow a knife to kill!"

Hearing these four words, Liu Biao's expression moved, and he seemed to have comprehended a little, but asked, "Please also make it clear to Mr." ”

Xu Shu said slowly: "Now that Su Zhe has occupied the important town of Xiangyang, even if Liu Jingzhou wants to forcibly recapture Xiangyang by himself, he will inevitably pay a heavy price, and the gains outweigh the losses." ”

"You know, that Su Zhe's enemy doesn't refer to one of us, has Liu Jingzhou forgotten who he snatched the Son of Heaven from?" Xu Shu raised his hand and pointed to the north.

Dong ...... Dong Zhuo? Liu Biao spit out the name of this person who is feared in the world.

Xu Shu nodded and said: "It's Dong Zhuo, with Dong Zhuo's violent temper, how can he swallow this breath, he didn't send troops to Nanyang before, because he was stabbed by Lu Bu, coupled with the rebellion in Chang'an, people's hearts are unstable, so he didn't dare to use it without authorization......"

Before Xu Shu finished speaking, Kuai Yue suddenly said: "Now that half a year has passed, the turmoil in Chang'an Pass has subsided, and Dong Zhuo's injury must have healed, and most of them are also plotting to send troops south, Dong Zhuo is the 'knife' that the lord wants to borrow to kill Su thieves!" ”

was robbed of the conversation by Kuai Yue, Xu Shu showed a little displeasure, glanced at Kuai Yue sideways, and said coldly sarcastically: "Lord Kuai is reacting quickly now, why is it that when Xiangyang was in Xiangyang, the reaction was slow." ”

He was satirizing Kuai Yue, who failed to see through Su Zhe's scheme in Xiangyang, but now he wants to steal his limelight.

Kuai Yue's face was not red and his heart was not beating, and he said lightly: "This plan to kill people with a knife is not a clever strategy, I have long thought that I wanted to offer it to the lord, but I was interrupted by you, Mr. Xu." ”

He was annoyed by Xu Shu's ridicule of him, and he didn't give Xu Shu face, and came to confront him in front of Liu Biao.

Although Liu Biao is holding Xu Shu in the palm of his hand at the moment, in view of the fall of Xiangyang and Huang Zu is not very obedient, at this time, he has to rely on the Kuai family, knowing that Kuai Yue has robbed Xu Shu's plan, but it is not easy to say anything, so he can only help each other.

Xu Shu was generous, and snorted coldly: "It doesn't matter who came up with the scheme, as long as you can deal with Su Zhe, this scheme should be made by your lord, Xu doesn't care." ”

He was so generous, but it made Kuai more and more stingy, and he didn't know how to deal with it for a while.

Liu Biao was afraid that the two of them would quarrel, so he was busy shooting the case, interrupted them, and said happily: "What a trick to borrow a knife to kill people, it is really God to help the mansion, this mansion is to send people to Chang'an, invite that Dong Zhuo to send troops south, borrow the hand of Xiliang Iron Cavalry, and destroy Su Zhe's traitor!" ”

He passed down the order, left and right the civil and military people, but they were not very excited, but there were many worries in their expressions.

Kuai Yue seemed to have something to say, but he wanted to stop talking.

Kuai Liang said: "The lord can think clearly, Dong Zhuo was chaotic and was regarded as a national thief by the people of the world, and the lord sent people to Chang'an to pay tribute because the Son of Heaven was held in his hands." ”

"Right now, Dong Zhuo no longer has the Son of Heaven in his hands, but the lord invited him to send troops to attack Nanyang, where the Son of Heaven is located, if this is spread, how will the people of the world talk about the lord?"

Liu Biao was dumbfounded, and the excitement on his face disappeared instantly, only then did he remember the disadvantages of this strategy, and his eyes couldn't help but look at Xu Shu again.

Xu Shu said in a cold tone: "I still say the same thing, everything has gains and losses, whether Liu Jingzhou wants fame or profit, it is all up to him to decide." ”

Liu Biao was silent.

He paced with his hands on his shoulders, silent for a long time, and the expression between his eyebrows flickered, showing what kind of struggle was going on in his heart.

After a long time, Liu Biaochang took a breath, and when he suddenly looked back, there was only cold determination left in his eyes.

"Quickly send Han Song to come, prepare to envoy Chang'an."

……

Guanzhong, Chang'an City.

In the gorgeous golden hall, Dong Zhuo was lying on the dragon throne, listening to Li Ru's report.

"According to the latest information we sent back from Nanyang, Su Zhe has captured Xiangyang not long ago, forced Liu Biao to flee to Jiangling, and the Son of Heaven has issued an edict to divide several counties in Xiangyang into Xiangyang County, and appointed Su Zhe's father-in-law Huang Chengyan to serve as the Taishou."

When this news was read, there was an uproar in the hall, and everyone was surprised.

Dong Zhuo, who was eating snacks, sat up with his fat body and exclaimed, "What do you say, say it again!" ”

Li Ru had no choice but to say: "Master Yu, then Su Zhe has captured Xiangyang." ”

Dong Zhuo's expression froze, his face was stunned, and he didn't swallow the snack in his mouth for a long time.

Dong Bai, who was accompanying him, was also shocked on his cold face, and muttered: "This stinky boy, I didn't expect him to be really capable of killing Liu Biao like this......

Syllable!

Dong Zhuo suddenly slapped the case, and cheered in his mouth: "Bengong is really right, Su Zhe's little miscellaneous hair does have some ability, and Bengong knows that Liu Biao's old dog is not an opponent surnamed Su." ”

He was shocked, but he actually admired Su Zhe a little.

In the main hall, there was a lot of discussion for a while, and all the heroes of Xiliang were amazed by Su Zhe's miraculous performance.

Li Ru's eyes rolled, and he sighed with his short beard: "Recently, there have been rumors in the market that a group of hermit masters have formed an alliance of military divisions, specializing in assessing the world's wise and resourceful people, among which the strongest nine people are rated as Nine Wonders, it is said that Su Zhe is the Wolong of the head of the Nine Wonders, and now it seems that Liu Biao is not his opponent, and it is reasonable." ”

"The head of the Nine Strange Bullshit!"

Dong Zhuo spat and said disdainfully: "The stinky boy is just cunning, he still wants to learn from Bengong to blackmail the Son of Heaven to order the princes, hmph, he will never understand, no matter how cunning and resourceful he is, his fists are hard enough is the king." ”

As soon as Dong Zhuo spoke, it was still the style of the Xiliang people whose hard power determines everything, and the Xiliang generals under his command echoed and responded.

"Taishi's words are reasonable, and his words are reasonable."

Li Ru could only follow along, but said: "With Liu's strength, it is estimated that he will not be able to control Su Zhe, I expect that he will not be long before he will send someone to beg us to send troops to deal with the surname Su." ”

The voice fell, and the soldiers outside the hall came to report, saying that Han Song, the messenger from Jingzhou, had arrived, and wanted to visit Dong Zhuo with a generous gift.

Dong Zhuo's eyes lit up, and he sneered: "Wen You, your judgment is really accurate, Liu Biao's old dog, really came to ask for his father." ”

At that moment, Dong Zhuo ordered Han Song to be introduced.

After a while, Han Song entered the main hall with Liu Biao's handwritten letters, as well as a large number of gold and silver gifts.

Although Dong Zhuo is rude and domineering, he is not a brainless person, since Liu Biao took the initiative to send someone to show his goodwill, of course he would not refuse people thousands of miles away, and he was also quite polite to Han Song.

Han Song expressed Liu Biao's intentions, and wanted to invite Dong Zhuo to join forces to destroy Su Zhe, so that he Liu Biao could recover the lost territory, and Dong Zhuo could bring the Son of Heaven who was "hostage" by Su Zhe back to the western capital Chang'an.

Dong Zhuo did not hesitate at all, made a decision on the spot, agreed to Liu Biao's invitation, and promised to send troops to Nanyang.

Han Song was naturally very happy, and after another thanks, Dong Zhuo politely sent someone to the hall to rest.

As soon as Han Song walked on the front foot, Li Ru said: "Taishi, as the son-in-law expected, Liu Biao is no match for Su Zhe, and wants to use our hands to help him get rid of Su Zhe, this is a strategy to kill people with a knife, and Taishi really wants to agree." ”

Dong Zhuo's mouth flattened, and he snorted: "Don't you see that Liu Biao's old dog wants to borrow a knife to kill people, as long as he can regain the Son of Heaven, what if this father lets him borrow this knife, Liu Biao, an old dog with a mouse eye, even if he helps him regain the lost land, what is the threat." ”

Li Ru was stunned for a moment, and immediately exclaimed: "Taishi's words are reasonable, the Son of Heaven must be recaptured, even if there is no invitation from Liu Biao, we are bound to use troops against Su Zhe." ”

Dong Zhuo was another case, and passed down the order, ordering the generals to prepare immediately, and he would personally lead the army out of Wuguan to conquer Su Zhe.

"Taishi, my son-in-law thinks that we should not march from Wuguan, but from Luoyang." Li Ru immediately raised objections.

"Luoyang?" Dong Zhuo frowned, "That place has long been dilapidated, which is not conducive to collecting grain on the spot, and besides, the army has to go east to Guguan first, and then turn back to the south, taking a long detour, which is as convenient as directly sending troops out of Wuguan." ”

Li Ru analyzed unhurriedly: "Although the troops in the direction of Wuguan are close, but at the moment Wuguan has been captured by Su Zhe, if he is defended by heavy troops, our army is mostly cavalry, and it is not good at attacking the city, so it is not good to give full play to our advantages." ”

"And from Luoyang to the south, all the way is flat, and there is no danger in the pass, which is suitable for our cavalry to gallop."

"Moreover, if the army enters from Wuguan, the Son of Heaven will have the opportunity to flee in the direction of Yanyu, even if we destroy Su Zhe, we may not be able to recapture the Son of Heaven."

Even if the Son of Heaven was finally forced to flee to attach himself to Liu Biao, with Liu Biao's self-defended thief guts, he would not dare to accept the Son of Heaven, and the Taishi would be like a bag to take things when he recaptured the Son of Heaven.

After listening to Li Ru's analysis, Dong Zhuo pondered for a while, and said: "Okay, Wen You's analysis makes sense, let's march from Luoyang." ”

Li Ru's plan was approved, he stroked his beard lightly, and the corners of his mouth raised a little proudly.

At this time, Dong Bai, who had been silent, suddenly arched his hand and said, "Grandfather, you are on this expedition, and your grandson also wants to accompany you." ”

Dong Zhuo was stunned, waved his hand and said, "What are you going to do with a female doll, just stay in Chang'an and take care of your family." ”

Dong Bai said hatefully: "Sun Er was defeated by Su Zhe's stinky boy before, and he must wash away his shame, otherwise Sun Er will not be able to swallow this breath." ”

"I see." Dong Zhuo nodded and said happily: "If there is revenge, you will get revenge!" Yes, it's my Dong family's demeanor, okay, you can follow your grandfather to clean up that stinky boy. ”

"Thank you, grandfather."

All the arrangements have been completed, and the plan for the expedition has been decided, everyone has just retreated, and before the people have left, Dong Zhuo can't wait to call people to pass the few concubines left by Emperor Ling to the Golden Palace to serve.

Dong Bai retreated, walked out of the main hall, stood on the high steps, and looked in the direction of the south from a distance.

The thin and handsome figure couldn't help but appear in front of him.

"Stinky boy, I said, I've been eyeing you all my life, I'll do what I say, you wait for me......"
