February 12, the third year of the first peace, Chang'an City.

At the west gate, the Xiliang generals led by Li Ru were all waiting outside the city gate, looking at the closer and closer cavalry general Li Li and his five thousand iron cavalry.

Behind Li Ru, Dong Yue, the general of the Flying Bear Battalion, saw the Wuwei Iron Cavalry three hundred steps away, and a look of innocence instantly appeared in his eyes.

"Dong Yue, how is the Wuwei Iron Cavalry under Li Li compared to the Flying Bear Battalion?" Li Ru, the middle attendant, is the best at observing words and feelings, and when Dong Yue's eyes are different, he asked in a low voice.

Dong Yue looked at Li Li who was sitting on top of the Xiliang horse and the Wuwei Iron Cavalry behind him, and said in a deep voice: "The Wuwei Iron Cavalry behind General Li Li is extraordinary, the soldiers are tall and strong, and the whole body is awe-inspiring. In addition, the mounts under their crotches are excellent, all of them are high-quality war horses with a height of more than seven feet, fast and not chaotic in the process, walking in unison, and they are an elite iron horse!

But?????? After all, they are light cavalry, and although they are strong in battle, they are not the enemy of the flying bear heavy armored cavalry. The 10,000 flying bear heavy armored cavalry built by Shang's father with great effort and no expense, how could the Wuwei Iron Cavalry compete with it? It's just that the combat power of these 5,000 martial arts iron cavalry, based on intuition alone, Dong feels that this army is extremely powerful. If our Flying Bear Soldiers are to fight against them, even if they win in the end, I am afraid that they will have to pay at least more than 3,000 casualties, otherwise it will be difficult to annihilate them all. ”

"Oh? Wu Weijun is so powerful! It seems that I, Li Ru, underestimated this nephew of General Li Dao before, and he is really an uncle and nephew, a tiger general! ”

Li Ru was stunned, and couldn't help but sigh that Li Dao and Li Li's uncle and nephew are now both generals, with heavy troops in their hands, and their strength cannot be ignored.

"Lord Principal is in charge of the world's intelligence, so he should know General Li Li's achievements well. I wonder if the rumors in Chang'an City are true? Dong Yue asked softly.

"Hehehe!" Li Ru squinted his eyes and chuckled when he heard this, and said, "The rumors in Chang'an City were deliberately spread by someone I sent someone. How can there be a mistake? In any case, General Li Li and I are in the same lineage, and he is a general under the command of Xiangguo, and he has returned with honors this time, and we should come to greet him.

Oh, by the way, General Dong Yue, General Fengxian, you sent someone to inform him in advance, why hasn't he come yet? ”

A wry smile suddenly appeared on Dong Yue's face, and he shook his head helplessly and said, "Feng Xian knows that General Wenchang will return to Beijing today. However, he sent someone to spread the word that he was in poor health and could not come to greet him, and asked Lord Bo to apologize to General Wenchang on his behalf. ”

"Huh? How could Feng Xian be so big. Could it be that in his eyes, with Li Wenchang's current status and status, he is not worthy of him to greet him in person? Li Ru frowned and said in a deep voice.

Dong Yue saw Li Ru's displeasure, and said with a smile: "Lord Bo." Fengxian has always been like this, among the ministers of the Manchu Dynasty. Except for Shang's father. He doesn't give face to anyone. Even if it's Lord Bo, you, Feng Xian is afraid that he won't ?????? Eye. ”

"Humph!" After Li Ru heard this, he glanced at Dong Yue with gloomy eyes, then turned his head, snorted coldly, and said no more.

Although Dong Yue's words were full of provocation. But Li Ru knew that Dong Yue was not wrong, and Lu Bu really did not take his Taishi Mansion master and Zhongchang servant Li Ru in his eyes. Every time he met with Lu Bu, he always had to greet Lu Bu first, and Lu Bu nodded and left. The end is the extreme of arrogance. Defiant.

Although Li Ru pretended not to care with a smile every time, he was actually very uncomfortable in his heart. It's just that he can endure it, and he has always held it back, and this kind of thing has never happened.

Dong Yue is mentioning this stubble now, of course Li Ru knows that Dong Yue is very unkind to see Lu Bu, and he also knows the purpose of his words and provocations. Li Ru couldn't help with this, and he couldn't help.

A month ago, Dong Zhuo took a step forward from the position of the Taishi, and was in the high position of Shang's father, and the little emperor Liu Xie also had to salute him in front of Dong Zhuo.

After Dong Zhuo ascended to the throne of Shang's father, he appointed his son Lu Bu as the ruling Jinwu and Wenhou, and took charge of the soldiers and horses of the Chang'an Imperial City. Therefore, Lu Bu won Dong Zhuo's trust, and he never left his side sooner or later, and his favor was extreme.

But holding the position of Jinwu, Dong Yue was staring at it early. Because he was originally a member of the Lintao Dong family. According to his generation, he is Dong Zhuo's distant nephew, and he has always been in charge of Dong Zhuo's personal soldier Flying Bear Battalion, and served as the general of the Flying Bear Battalion, always guarding Dong Zhuo's side.

Therefore, in Dong Yue's eyes, he is the only one who holds the position of Jinwu, and he is like a thing in his pocket. As soon as the time comes, he will be able to rank in Jiuqing, and the scenery is infinite.

Unexpectedly, Lu Bu inserted a lever horizontally, took away his position of Dong Yuezhi's inevitable Jinwu, and was also named Marquis Wen, which is the highest title in the Han Dynasty - County Marquis.

In fact, Dong Yue had a grudge against Lu Bu and was very dissatisfied with Lu Bu when he worshipped Dong Zhuo as his father-in-law and guarded Dong Zhuo all day long. Because that position used to be his Dong Yue's. What made him feel helpless was that Lu Bu's martial arts were indeed much stronger than him, and Dong Zhuo valued Lu Bu very much.

So Dong Yue could only grit his teeth and hold on, swallowing his anger all day long, and from time to time he had to be called by Lu Bu in the name of Dong Zhuo.

It's really aggrieved.

If Dong Zhuo is a personal guard, Dong Yue can still bear the pain; Then he will never give up the position of Jinwu to Lu Bu.

However, as soon as Dong Zhuo's golden mouth opened, the position of holding Jinwu fell to Lu Bu's head again, and he, Dong Yue, missed it again, and watched the cooked duck fly away.

There was the hatred of snatching away the personal guards in the front, and the hatred of seizing the throne in the back, and the new hatred and old hatred were superimposed, Dong Yue hated Lu Bu to the core, and he gritted his teeth with hatred.

It's just that no matter how much Dong Yue resents Lu Bu, he can't help but obey Lu Bu's orders. Now Lu Bu is his justifiable top boss, and it is a matter of course to command him.

Dong Yue's hatred in his heart, what a nest!

Regarding Dong Yue's current situation, Li Ru knows it well. But even if he has the heart to help Dong Yue, he has more than enough heart and not enough strength, he is really powerless! Now the relationship between Dong Zhuo and Lu Bu is getting better and better, and they are like biological father and son. Whoever dares to say that Lu Bu is not in front of Dong Zhuo is tantamount to asking for trouble and getting tired of it.

In fact, now in the Xiliang Army, there are not a few generals who are dissatisfied because Lu Bu is deeply favored by Dong Zhuo and has repeatedly promoted officials to the knighthood, and almost all the Xiliang generals have a grudge against Lu Bu. So everyone unanimously excluded Lu Bu from the Xiliang Army. So that he couldn't touch the military power of the Xiliang army at all, and the army that really obeyed his command was only more than 20,000 and the old department of the state. The other Xiliang soldiers and horses disobeyed Lu Bu's military orders, threw them aside, and ignored them. Unless Lu Bu holds Dong Zhuo's personal talisman and executes Dong Zhuo's military orders, he will not want to mobilize every soldier of the Xiliang Army.

???????????????????

"Sigh ———!"

"Da Da Da! Boom! ”

As Li Li's right hand was raised, the five thousand golden guards stopped in an instant, and the war horse neighed. Then he took three more steps forward, and stood in a neat formation, motionless as a mountain.

"Hehehe!"

In the hearty laughter, Li Li quickly jumped off his mount and strode towards Li Ru, the middle attendant standing at the gate of the city.

"I, Li Li, how can I ask the Lord to go out of the city to greet him. I'm really flattered, I can't afford it! ”

"General Li is out of sight. You'd better call me the master bookkeeper. If you don't call me Wenyou, it's okay. Zhongchang is just an official position in the palace, and I, Li Ru, am still the master of the Taishi Mansion! Hehehe! Li Ru took Li Li's arm that wanted to salute, and said with a smile.

In fact, Li Li is just making a show. If Li Ru dared to accept his salute, he would bow slightly at most, and that's it.

However, Li Ru has always been smiling and welcoming, which makes people feel that he is very good at talking. No temper. The most important thing is that he is very good at being a man, and he doesn't seem to have a holiday with all the generals of the Xiliang Army, but he also doesn't have a deep friendship. Never form a party for personal gain, form a gang and form a faction, and abide by the duty of being a subordinate.

Therefore, many Xiliang generals may be very unaccustomed to Li Ru's relying on a sharp tooth to obtain high-ranking officials, but they will not not give him face in person, and they will not offend him easily.

In addition, the relationship between Li Ru and Li Dao and Li Li's uncle and nephew is different from others. can't write two Li characters in one stroke, Li Ru was born in the Li family, and he is a member of the Li family, but he has nothing to do with Li Dao, the current head of the Li family.

Li Ru came from a humble background, and although he was a side child of the Li family in Beidi County, he never received a little favor from the Li family, let alone any help from the Li family. Therefore, although he and the Li family are from the same line, they are unrelated. On the contrary, Dong Zhuo had the grace of knowing Li Ru, and when he had no hope of filial piety, he took him into his account as a staff member.

After that, Dong Zhuo married the third daughter born to the concubine to Li Ru as his wife, which can be described as a reinvention of grace and trust. For this reason, Li Ru has been doing his best to assist Dong Zhuo, busy with everyone before and after, as long as it is conducive to strengthening Dong Zhuo's strength, he is willing to do it.

When the princes of the Eighteenth Route were begging Dong Zhuo, Li Ru, in order to reduce Dong Zhuo's defensive pressure, personally went to Sun Jian's camp to say that Sun Jian would surrender. As a result, he was humiliated by Sun Jian, Sun Ce's father and son, and almost died at the hands of Sun Jian. Zuihou, he licked his face and knelt down for Sun Jian's father and son to beg for mercy, and crawled out of the big tent all the way to leave Sun Jian's camp alive.

It is precisely because of Li Ru's unbearable behavior that all the princes of the world think that he is a villain who can only flatter and a disciple.

But there is one person who has never despised Li Ru, and this person is Cao Cao, who once stooped down to serve Dong Zhuo.

When Dong Zhuo moved west, Cao Cao led his army to chase and kill, but was defeated by Li Dao and Guo Yan in Xingyang and almost died. After Cao Cao escaped, he knew that although he was defeated by Li Dao, Guo Yan and Xu Rong, he was actually ambushed by Haode arranged by Li Ru in advance, so he was defeated.

It's just that Cao Cao won't mention the whole story of this matter to anyone, after all, this is not a glorious thing, but he has never underestimated Li Ru's resourcefulness.

Dong Zhuo can take charge of the world's bull's ears with Li Ru, the son-in-law of the strategist, dominate Luoyang, and shock the world. With such a prominent feat, how can Dong Zhuo, who is tyrannical by nature, and a group of Xiliang troops who only know how to burn, kill and loot? Dong Zhuo's dominance of Luoyang and control of the Son of Heaven almost all came from Li Ru's strategy, step by step, interlocking, and finally pushed Dong Zhuo to the position of the overlord of the world.

Others may not know all this, but Cao Cao knows very well. Therefore, when he assassinated Dong Zhuo, he happened to be when Li Ru was dealing with government affairs, and he deliberately avoided Li Ru's sight. It's just that Dong Zhuo is not a mediocre person, and he has an extraordinary vigilance, so Cao Cao's assassination did not succeed and fled from Luoyang in a hurry.

However, Li Ru may not have thought that he assisted Dong Zhuo to dominate the world, but he also pushed Dong Zhuo to the edge of hell from which he could never recover, and there was no room for maneuver. (To be continued)(To be continued......
