Chapter 163: Step by step

Chapter 163 is pressing step by step

Nanyang Taishou Mansion.

"What did you say?" Yuan Shuteng stood up, his face full of disbelief.

Yuan Yin had a bitter face, and repeated in an interfering voice: "What General Wang means is that he can give you the opportunity to march into Luoyang, and ensure that you don't have to take any risks to recover Luoyang, but before that, you have to spend some money and food......"

"Bastard!"

Yuan Shu flew up and kicked his younger brother directly, then crossed his waist and scolded: "Why? He also didn't want to think about it, since he arrived in Nanyang, who was contributing money and grain to support his army? Without the support of so-and-so, how could he have the current scenery? He's ungrateful, yes, a white-eyed wolf! ”

Yuan Yin propped up his body with his hands, and said with flickering words: "Big brother, otherwise it will depend on him, just some money and food......"

"No way!"

Yuan Shu categorically refused, and shouted angrily: "It's not a matter of money, treat him like a confidant, how can he repay me like this?" You can't just swallow this breath! Pass on my general order, starting today, the supply to Luyang will be cut off, and he will be asked to come back and beg me, kneeling and begging! ”

"Big brother, big brother, listen to me......"

As soon as he heard this, Yuan Yin's cold sweat brushed down, and he couldn't care much more, hugging Yuan Shu's thigh and crying: "If you do that, you will anger Wang Pengju, and he will return to the army to kill him!" ”

"If you return to the army, you will return to the army, and you are afraid that he will ......" Yuan Shu was angry, and shouted two sentences without thinking, and then he was shocked: "Huh? What did you say? He's going to ......"

Yuan Yin nodded like a chicken pecking rice: "That's right, if Nanyang's grain and grass can't reach Luyang within three days, he will personally bring the army back!" ”

Yuan Shumu Ran shook his head and muttered: "Impossible, he won't treat me like this, besides, even if he wants to, Gongsun Yue won't listen to him, he doesn't have many soldiers at all." ”

"The Youzhou army is not in the camp at all, Wang Pengju has surrendered and rebelled, there are more than 20,000 elite soldiers in the camp, if we really want to come south, we can't stop it!" Thinking of what he saw and heard in Yangren, Yuan Yin only felt cold in his heart.

Generally speaking, it is impossible to quickly restore the formation and send the army to the battlefield, especially when Wang Yu has more troops than his own team, he can suppress the surrendered troops, and there are no deserters and mutinies, which is already quite remarkable.

But Yuan Yin saw with his own eyes that the flags on the school field were like a forest, and the morale of more than 20,000 troops was like a rainbow, and the fighting spirit was soaring.

According to Jia Xu, who eats people and does not spit out bones, corn mixed with sand has already aroused complaints in the army. As long as Wang Yu is willing, he can direct this resentment to Yuan Shu at any time, and at that time, the consequences are really unimaginable!

"How about summoning Sun Wentai back from Yuzhou?" Yuan Shu still refused to give up.

"Sun Jian has gathered less than 10,000 soldiers and horses, and the morale is also low, not to mention, Sun Jian lost to Xu Rong that day, and Wang Yu ......"

Yuan Shu became more and more desperate, looking at his younger brother, he suddenly became angry, raised his legs, threw the other party away, and kicked him headlessly: "Stupid!" It's all you stupid, if I hadn't listened to you that day, how could a certain and Pengju be so separated, so that they would turn against each other? ”

"Big brother, big brother, it's the younger brother who is wrong...... However, who would have thought that he would have such determination at such a young age, and he would not move? Dong Zhuodu has fallen ill and can't be a director, he hasn't even entered the army! But he is in sour dates and in Nanyang, and he is obviously very impulsive? ”

Yuan Yin felt that he had been wronged and went home, Wang Yu had always behaved like a madman, he could be desperate for King Qin, who thought that he was just the last step, but he suddenly sobered up.

"Huh, huh," Yuan Shu was tired after kicking and beating for a while, he glared at Yuan Yin, panting and said, "It was your idea at the beginning, what should I do now?" You can give me another idea. ”

Yuan Yin replied tremblingly: "If he asks for money and food, he will give him ......"

After staring at Yuan Yin for a long time, Yuan Shu snorted from his nose: "How much does he want?" ”

"Five thousand...... 10,000 yuan, and 300,000 grains ......"

Yuan Yin said two numbers in a hurry, and seeing that Yuan Shu was about to make color again, he hurriedly explained: "The price can still be negotiated, if the eldest brother goes to see him in person, it is estimated that the price can be kept very low...... Not only our family, Liu Jingsheng also sent people, and they also had to pay money, uh, and it seems that Luoyang also sent people......"

"......" Yuan Shu was silent.

No matter how scheming he was, he could imagine what kind of threat was behind these actions. If he doesn't bow his head, Wang Yu will reach an agreement with Dong Zhuo, return to the army and go south, and attack himself with Liu Biao, not to mention that Sun Jian can't beat Wang Yu, even if he can block Wang Yu, he can't beat Liu Biao himself.

His bowels were blue.

Originally, he didn't have any bad intentions, but when Yuan Yin said it, his mind became lively, and he even started to officially accept Wang Yu and Sun Jian as subordinates, and after capturing Luoyang, face the south and be respected. It's a pity that the first step of the plan failed, and he couldn't manipulate Wang Yu at all.

Yuan Yin's trip was received by Jia Xu with full authority, and he didn't see Wang Yu's face at all, but through Yuan Yin's relay, Yuan Shu seemed to hear Wang Yu's familiar angry shout: Dare to cut off Lao Tzu's grain? Lao Tzu wants your life!

"Alas! A bunch of stupid people, bad for me! Yuan Shu looked up at the sky and sighed.

……

Luoyang, Nangong.

After more than ten days of coma, Dong Zhuo finally opened his eyes again, he looked blankly at the empty top of the hall, his eyes were blank.

I don't know how long later, a rush and chaos of footsteps sounded outside the hall, and he was finally awakened.

Looking at the face that was thinner than in his memory, Dong Zhuo tried to raise his hand and asked as if groaning, "Is it Wen You, ...... Still alive? ”

Tears suddenly welled up in Li Ru's eyes, he rushed forward to hold Dong Zhuo's hand, and said affectionately: "Uncle Yue, you are fine, we are fine." ”

Feeling the heat of his son-in-law's palm, Dong Zhuo recovered a little: "What about Wang Pengju?" He didn't come to attack Luoyang? How long has someone been in a coma? ”

"It's been more than ten days, Prime Minister, these days, the military advisor has been taking care of you undressed, and Jane is also difficult to swallow and sleep." A person flashed out behind Li Ru, it was Hu Zhen, he didn't tell nonsense, because he had also lost a lot of weight.

"Huh? You're not dead? ”

Seeing Hu Zhen, Dong Zhuo only felt a surge of anger, and suddenly he had strength, struggled violently, and actually sat up, he pointed at Hu Zhen's nose and scolded: "What is going on in the battle of Yang Ren, how could he lose so badly?" It's okay if you lose, but you must at least send a messenger! It's good now, people have attacked Hangu Pass, and we will all die in Luoyang! ”

Hu Zhen was scolded so much that he didn't dare to speak, but just looked at Li Ru.

"Uncle Yue's anger, don't hurt your body anymore, Hanguguan is fine......"

"Okay? Wang Yu didn't ......" Dong Zhuo was stunned, there were many reasons why he fainted that day, worrying that Hangu Pass was taken and there was no way to escape was one of the main reasons, he came back to his senses and asked: "Wen You, you start from the beginning, what is going on?" ”

"Actually......" Li Ru briefly explained the beginning and end of the battle of the Yangren, and then explained: "The Youzhou army did not suffer major losses in this battle, not long after the battle, it marched north, General Hu only had a dozen horsemen around him, and it was difficult to compete with him, so he avoided it, so he failed to rush back as soon as possible."

to report the news. ”

"After the Youzhou army appeared in Gucheng, it disappeared, and the son-in-law sent a messenger to Hanguguan, and there was no obstacle to the exchanges, but the reinforcements were targeted as soon as they left the city, and in desperation, they had to retreat."

"Obviously you have the opportunity but don't tackle the problem?" Dong Zhuo was puzzled and said, "What does Wang Yu want to do?" ”

Li Ru said slowly: "The son-in-law guessed that he might want to negotiate, so he personally went to Yangren......"

"Negotiations? And Wang Yu? Dong Zhuo was dumbfounded.

Li Ru hurriedly explained: "At that time, Yuezhang was unconscious, and the Youzhou army had been haunting and uncertain, and the situation was critical, so he ......."

"I didn't say that."

Dong Zhuo waved his hand, with an incredulous expression, and asked one after another: "I just don't understand, Wang Yu, the Wang Yu you are talking about, but he knows a person with this appearance?" He cut off my ears, chased after me like crazy, and even sneaked into Luoyang alone...... Now, he's going to negotiate with Benxiang? At this time? ”

Li Ru reminded: "Uncle Yue, have you forgotten? The son-in-law told you that day, Wang Yu is completely different from his father Wang Kuang, his loyalty is fake, and he is the same as Yuan Shao and Cao Cao, he is a traitor who peeps at the artifact! If he really wanted to kill you, he would have done it as early as when he was in Heyin! ”

Dong Zhuo said blankly: "Then what did he do when he came to Luoyang before?" ”

Li Ru replied: "He has dealt with Lu Bu a few times, and he has seen through Lu Bu's arrogant and uninhibited character, so he wants to use the power of the prince's division to kill you and bring Lu Bu and the Bingzhou army under his command!" ”

“…… And now? ”

"Now, he has seen through the situation and knows that there is no benefit to entering Luoyang, but it is more beneficial to keep us to contain the princes, so he plans to negotiate terms with you. If we can talk about it, let us go, and if we can't talk about it......"

Dong Zhuo's expression was a little sluggish, and he didn't say anything for a long time.

Li Ru thought that Dong Zhuo still remembered the hatred of cutting his ears, or he was reluctant to leave Luoyang, so he persuaded bitterly: "Uncle Yue, this time is different from the past, our army has gone, even if there is no Wang Yu, our army will not be able to continue to gain a foothold in Luoyang, take a step back and open the sky, return to Guanzhong, recuperate for a few years, and it may not be impossible to make a comeback." ”

"Haha!" Dong Zhuo suddenly laughed.

Li Ru and Hu Zhen were taken aback, thinking that Dong Zhuo was too stimulated and went crazy, and when they were about to summon the imperial doctor, they heard Dong Zhuo laugh louder and louder, and finally laughed so much that tears came out.

The two were shocked, and when they were at a loss, Dong Zhuo finally spoke: "Hahahaha, of course you have to go, how can you do it if you don't go?" After going through so many things, it is really a joy to be able to return to my hometown! ”

As he spoke, he stopped laughing, but cried with tears in his eyes, crying this is called a sad heart, like a young child who has been robbed of his favorite toy.

Li and Hu glanced at each other, and they were also full of emotion for a while, this Wang Yu is really the nemesis of Xiliang people's life! The prime minister is not a courageless person, but he was beaten by the other party three or four times and lost his temper, and until now, he has been completely beaten, and he cried with joy when he heard that he could get out of the way.

thought of the high spirits when he entered Luoyang last year;

The pride of the deposed emperor was great;

After getting the news of the alliance of princes, he was shocked but not confused, calmly arranged, and prepared to move the capital to the time......

It's really unbearable!

After crying and laughing for a while, Dong Zhuo finally returned to his usual state, he instructed the palace people to bring water over, washed his face, and then asked: "You have been there, then let's talk about it, what conditions did he offer?" ”

Li Ru replied: "He asks for an official position......

"Give it to him!" Dong Zhuo waved his hand and said without thinking: "What does he want?" Situ, Sikong, Taiwei? Even if you want me to be the prime minister, it's no problem, tomorrow I will ask the Son of Heaven to seal him! ”

"His requirements are not high, he just wants a state pastor or a thorn history."

"That's it? Which state? ”

"He hasn't chosen ...... yet"

"Whichever one he is, just promise him." Dong Zhuo waved his hand and quickly skipped this section, he didn't plan to continue to be attentive to Wang Yu, as long as the other party didn't want Yongzhou or Liangzhou, the rest was casual, isn't it just a thorn history?

"Anything else?" Dong Zhuo felt a lot more relaxed.

"He still needs money......"

"Money?" Dong Zhuo's fat face shook obviously, "How much?" ”

"50 Million ......"

"Phew!" Dong Zhuo gasped and said with a bitter face: "He set Jin Yong City on fire, where is the money in his own right?" ”

Li Ru hesitated for a moment and said, "This, it's not impossible. ”

Dong Zhuo shook his head again and again: "Wenyou, you won't fight those wild ideas, right?" They have money in their hands, but if we rob it, after returning to Xiliang, those heroes won't fight with us? ”

"It's not them that the son-in-law is talking about." How could Li Ru come up with such a stupid idea, retreat to Guanzhong empty-handed, and if he wants to make a comeback, he can only make a fuss about the Qiang people, how dare he offend those heroes to death? Those guys are not ordinary greedy, robbing them of their money, just asking for their lives!

"That's ......" Dong Zhuo's heart suddenly moved: "Hey, are you talking about ......?"

Li Ru nodded heavily, and said in a deep voice: "Uncle Yue, we can't go back without anything, we have to leave anyway, are we afraid of offending people?" ”

Dong Zhuo pondered for a moment, and finally gritted his teeth and said, "It's okay, it's up to you!" ”

"Another ......"

"And huh?" Dong Zhuo began to tremble, it doesn't matter how many conditions there are, it is easier to deal with the official position, and it is too tricky to ask for money or something.

"These are relatively simple," Li Ru said comfortingly, "He wants all the books in Tianlu Pavilion......"

"Whew." Dong Zhuo breathed a sigh of relief, waved his hand and said, "Give it to him." ”

Dong Zhuo is reluctant, but Li Ru is a little reluctant, these books seem to be worthless, but they are actually priceless! If it is used well, it is enough to prosper the country and build the country! However, that's a long-term thing, and you'd better take care of the present.

Sighing secretly, Li Ru continued: "Also, he wants someone. ”

"People? Who? ”

"Son of Heaven! There is also a woman in Wuwei Jiajiazhuang, named Jia Jing, uh, he also wants to ...... that woman's family."

"Woman? Emperor? Dong Zhuo was a little confused, but the principle was still very clear, "The woman followed him, asked someone to send a letter back to Xiliang, and Niu Fu took care of the matter." Emperor...... The Son of Heaven can't give it, otherwise we will really come in vain, and we will lose a lot of money! ”

Li Ru was actually talking nonsense with his eyes open, he knew that Wang Yu wanted someone from Jiajiazhuang, not for any woman, but for Jia Xu. However, when he was in Yangren, he had already reached a deal with Jia Xu, and he would use the excuse of Wang Yu to rob a woman to fool Dong Zhuo, and then, Jia Xu would repay the favor and help him fool Wang Yu.

"Uncle Yue, there is a saying that the price is all over the sky, and the money is paid back on the spot...... Li Ru didn't know, this sentence has been very popular recently, and many big people are reciting it repeatedly.

"If you have your approval for other conditions except for the Son of Heaven, then this matter will be wrapped up on the son-in-law, who is willing to persuade Wang Yu to open the way back for the army with his three-inch tongue!"

"Good, good, worthy of being my good son-in-law!" Dong Zhuo was overjoyed. (To be continued)
