Regarding Li Ru's words, Cheng Yu did not have too many doubts. Because, as long as he is a resourceful person, he can see that Li Dao and others will not end well.

Hearing that Li Ru wanted to come to Bingzhou, Cheng Yu was both happy and worried.

I am happy because I can get another one in the state, and I can be an outstanding strategist. worried, but because of Li Ru's reputation, it is really bad.

Although it is said that the state appoints people on the basis of meritocracy, Li Ru's killing of the young emperor Liu Wei still made the princes dare not accept him easily. After all, in name, the princes must make a loyal and patriotic appearance.

If Li Ru is accepted, I am afraid that he will be criticized.

The Yellow Turban Army finally accepted Zhao'an and cleared the identity of the anti-thief. At this time, accepting Li Ru seemed to be a little more than worth the loss.

"If Li Ru can go incognito and work in Bingzhou in a different capacity, this situation should be much better."

It was only then that he understood why Li Ru had changed his name to Li Kui.

As if seeing what Cheng Yu was thinking, Li Ru took out a piece of paper from his arms without hurry. He stepped forward and handed the paperwork to = Cheng Yu, and stopped talking.

Cheng Yu finished reading the contents of the document, and a smile suddenly appeared on his face.

The document that Li Ru gave him was the document that Li Dao forced to sacrifice to the emperor and wrote a document to forgive Li Ru's past sins. This paper document was not only written by Emperor Xian himself, but also stamped with the seal of the palace to show its authenticity.

With this pardon document, even if Chen Xu uses Li Ru, he can block the mouth of the world.

Of course, for those who are really loyal to the Han family and cherish their feathers, they still can't accept Li Ru as a person.

If Li Ru went to Jizhou to defect to Yuan Shao, even if there was a pardon document, Yuan Shao would never accept Li Ru for the sake of his reputation.

Even if Li Ru went to Cao Cao, although Cao Cao was willing to accept him in his heart, he would not bury his hard-earned reputation for Li Ru alone.

After all, before Cao Cao coerced the Son of Heaven to order the princes, he was loyal and patriotic, and worried about the worries of the world.

Otherwise, Xun's uncle and nephew would not have come to Cao ****.

Whether it was assassinating Dong Zhuo alone, or raising troops against Dong several times in the future, Cao Cao was loyal to the Han family.

Although the Han Emperor was like a puppet in his hands in history, it was also because of Cao Cao that the Han family was able to survive for many years.

As Cao Cao said: If there is no loneliness in the world, I don't know how many people are kings and how many people are emperors.

Regardless of whether Cao Cao had scruples, or whether he really missed the Han family. At least all his life, he did not claim the title of emperor.

Even for those, the reputation of loyalty and patriotism, Cao Cao would not accept Li Ru.

Among the powerful princes, only Chen Xu was born in a yellow scarf and wore the halo of an anti-thief on his head. Even if he was recruited by the imperial court, when others mentioned Chen Xu, they would say that he was born in a yellow scarf.

In this case, how could Chen Xu care about other people's gossip?

If Chen Xu knew that Li Ru had come to join him, even if he was under tremendous pressure, he would have left Li Ru behind. What's more, Li Ru still has a pardon document in his hand?

For the development and growth of Bingzhou Group, Cheng Yu can be said to be painstaking. When he met Li Ru today, even if this person didn't want to defect to Bingzhou, Cheng Yu would find a way to leave him.

Now that he heard that Li Ru wanted to take up a post in Bingzhou, how could he not be happy?

Cheng Yu took a step forward, grabbed Li Ru's arm tightly, and said, "If the lord learns that Wen is coming, he will be overjoyed!" ”

Lu Bu on the side, hearing Cheng Yu's words, his face was extremely gloomy.

Li Ru glanced at Lu Bu, raised his eyebrows, and said to Cheng Yu: "In this case, Confucianism should offer the gift of an audience." ”

When Cheng Yu heard this, he was naturally overjoyed. A wise and resourceful person like Li Ru will definitely not be too small to present an audience.

Li Ru put his hands behind his back, slowly walked to the map, and was silent for a long time before he spoke: "Chen and Zhou's soldiers are divided into four routes, all the way to Licheng to deter Yuan Benchu and Cao Mengde; Stationed here all the way, making the illusion of attacking Zuo Fengyi. ”

"Only the two roads in the middle are the main forces that really capture the four eastern counties of Sili."

"The troops are divided into four directions, and although they seem to be huge, they also disperse the forces of the state. If the Liangzhou army is left alone with the other soldiers and horses, and attacks it all the way, what will be the outcome? ”

Cheng Yu was stunned when he heard this. After thinking for a long time, his face changed greatly.

After a while, he said with some hesitation: "In the Xiliang Army, apart from Wen You, who else can think of this strategy?" ”

When Li Ru heard this, he laughed loudly: "There is a person in the Xiliang Army, whose surname is Jia Mingxu, and his words are harmonious. He has a great talent, and it is easy to design a four-way army and a state army! ”

Cheng Yu was shocked and hurriedly asked, "Jia Xu's talent, how is it compared to Wen You?" ”

Li Ru said with a straight face: "The talent of Wenhe is ten times better than mine." If Li Dao and others can use their tactics, this time the state army will attack Sili, and they will definitely lose their troops! ”

Although Jia Xu offered advice to Li Dao and others, he broke through Chang'an and served the Son of Heaven to conquer the world. But because the time was too short and Jia Xu's reputation was not obvious before, Cheng Yu didn't know anything about this person at all.

Before that, everyone in Bingzhou thought that Li Ru was dead. Then in the entire Xiliang army, there is no longer a wise man.

It is precisely because of this that Chen Xu dared to divide his troops into four routes and plot to seize the four eastern counties of Sili.

The troops are divided into four routes, and if there is no accident, although they can capture the four eastern counties of Sili as quickly as possible.

But as Li Ru said, although the soldiers are divided into four ways, it seems to be huge. But if there is Jia Xu in the Xiliang army to help, it is easy to make the Bingzhou army suffer a big loss.

After all, the total strength of the annexed states is only that much. The more troops are divided, the weaker the strength.

At this time, Cheng Yu couldn't sit still anymore. He no longer paid attention to the generals, who still looked puzzled. quickly wrote a letter and asked people to send it to Chen Xu quickly.

Then he asked people to beat the drum of the generals, issued an order to attack Zuo Fengyi immediately. Although Zhao Yun was puzzled, out of trust in Cheng Yu, he still faithfully carried out his orders.

To the south of Shangjun County, most of them are lofty mountains and mountains, and the march is difficult.

After Li Wei sent Wang Fang and Li Meng to lead the Xiliang army to this place, they set up a camp on the mountain road, completely blocking the road for the Qiyuan and Zhou army to go south.

Li Meng was handling military affairs in the big tent, and suddenly saw Wang Fang running in with an excited face.

"As expected, the state army has really begun to attack our camp!"

Li Meng also Huo Ran got up, laughed and said, "Some time ago, they thought that we would wait for the army to arrive here and not dare to move. ”

"But now, the mountain road is blocked, and the camp has been erected. Even if the state army knows that we are bluffing, it will definitely be difficult to conquer our camp! ”

It turned out that some time ago, Li Meng, Wang Fang and others came to the south of Qiyuan City with great fanfare under the banner of Li Dao and Guo Yan.

In the camp of Li Meng and others, the banner covers the sky and the sun, and the sound of killing is shaking the sky every day.

Seeing this, Cheng Yu, Zhao Yun and others always thought that this road of soldiers and horses was the main force of the Xiliang Army. Seeing that most of the troops of the Xiliang Army were all dragged south of Qiyuan, Cheng Yu was completely relieved.

After all, the Liangzhou army has a limited number of troops. If the army is gathered here, the two soldiers and horses of Zhang Yan and Guan Hai will definitely be able to conquer the four eastern counties of Sili like a split bamboo.

It wasn't until he heard that there was a figure like Jia Xu in the Xiliang army that Cheng Yu suddenly woke up and personally led the army to attack Zuo Fengyi.

In the mountain road, it was difficult for the army to spread out at all, Cheng Yu looked at the camp in front of him that blocked the way of the Bingzhou army, and his face was extremely gloomy.

"Report!" At this moment, a herald came to Cheng Yu and said, "General Zhao is not good for attacking the enemy's camp, so I ask for support." ”

Cheng Yu still knows Zhao Yun's personality very well. If he was forced to do so, he would never ask for help from him.

After thinking for a while, Cheng Yu said loudly: "Mingjin retreats!" ”

On the battlefield, Zhao Yun personally risked arrows and stones and struggled forward. However, the mountain road is too steep, and the camp of the other party is also very solid.

He led people to attack several times, and under the fierce arrow fire of the Xiliang army, the state army left a corpse and had to retreat.

Now the mountains are high and the road is far away, not to mention that the siege equipment cannot be transported. Even if they are made on the spot, they will not be able to be brought into the battlefield in the face of narrow mountain roads.

"There are really not many soldiers and horses in this camp. If I don't fight forward and take this camp, I'm afraid that the other armies may be in danger. ”

Although the attack was unfavorable, Zhao Yun also figured out the reality of the Xiliang army. The Xiliang army stationed here will definitely not exceed five thousand.

"Kill!"

Raising the spear in his hand, Zhao Yun was about to lead the tent corporal to charge the camp of the Xiliang Army again, when he heard the sound of Mingjin withdrawing his troops.

Zhao Yun returned to the camp and said to Cheng Yu: "Military Division, the thief army is really bluffing, there are only a few thousand people. However, the road is steep, and the Xiliang military camp is strong, so it is difficult to overcome it in a hurry. ”

Cheng Yu nodded with a worried face, and said, "Since the Xiliang Army is on guard, it is naturally extremely difficult to conquer this place. If the assault continues, it will only increase casualties. ”

Thinking about it, Cheng Yu thinks. If he is Jia Xu, he will definitely gather superior forces and destroy Guan Hai's people all the way.

Gritting his teeth, he suddenly shouted, "Where are Zhao Yun and Lu Bu?" ”

The two suddenly heard Cheng Yu's shout, and hurriedly replied: "The last general!" ”

Cheng Yu said: "The two of you led the cavalry under your tent, and rushed to Hedong County in the starry night to support the people and horses of Guan Hai Nalu." ”

"But if they have not yet been defeated after you have passed, then you can conquer a city and hold on there. If so......"

Speaking of which, Cheng Yu did not continue. But Zhao Yun and Lu Bu both understood what he meant.

If it is the soldiers and horses on the road of Guan Hai, the whole army will be wiped out. Then the fifteen thousand cavalry they led could not stir up much of a storm.

In this way, it represents this confrontation in the central part of the country, and the state army has been defeated.
