Li Ru sat down again, the furnishings in his tent were extremely simple, a desk, a low couch, plus a few necessary supplies, that's all. Aside from a few books with simple bindings on the desk, there was almost nothing more to him.

Compared to in Liangzhou, there are not many options that can be chosen during the march of the army, or when they stop. Sometimes, you can't even find a suitable place to camp, let alone anything else.

No one will pay attention to this aspect, and Li Ru is too, as long as people who have been in the army will basically understand that there is no choice, and it would be good to have a place to rest. It is also true that the army fights, and now is not wartime, so the soldiers will not be too tired.

In wartime, at that time, the soldiers in the army, after a day of fighting, returned to the camp tent, basically lying on the ground and could easily fall asleep. This is the reason why the attacking side can succeed when the camp is often stolen, because the soldiers in the camp fall into a deep sleep because of fatigue, and they wake up from their sleep when they are stealing the camp, but to no avail.

A person like Li Ru who can have his own separate camp has an extremely high status in an army. It's not like ordinary soldiers, in a camp, you don't know how many people to squeeze into.

Li Ru has long been accustomed to this kind of life, so there will be no resentment. He was not a pure strategist, he had also led the army in battle, and life in the army was also a familiar life for him.

Before, in the camp tent of the Chinese army, he heard what Li Su had heard after he went to talk to Lu Bu for the third time, and after that, Li Ru had already felt that most of the things had been successful. He didn't believe that Lu Bu would not be tempted, with Lu Bu's rank in Ding Yuan's army, and with the unfair treatment of Ding Yuan that Lu Bu received, all of them showed that Lu Bu could be recruited by them.

It's not an ordinary possibility, it's a huge, very big possibility. It is not for nothing that Li Ru has this idea, although the news that Lu Bu encountered and the news that he could hear was said one by one from Li Su's mouth, and it seemed that it was not a big deal, but Li Ru knew that this was often the key.

In the lives of ordinary people, because of the small frictions, they may eventually accumulate together and explode, which is an absolute killing machine. Some small contradictions, small problems, when accumulated too much, will become big contradictions, big problems!

There is such a problem between Ding Yuan and Lu Bu, although Ding Yuan may not feel anything, and he feels that there will be no problem with what he does, and Lu Bu will not have any resentment towards him. But in fact, Ding Yuan was wrong.

The resentment that Lu Bu does not have is impossible to show on the surface, but who can see the resentment in his heart? No one could see it, including Ding Yuan, how could Lu Bu show these things in front of Ding Yuan? From the content of the conversation with Lu Bu that Li Su said, coupled with Li Su's own feelings, Li Ru combined with his own views, it can basically be judged that Lu Bu has too much resentment and depression.

All of these things are buried in the heart, and it is easy for people to go unnoticed. In other words, this kind of thing will never appear in front of Ding Yuan, let him see it, and it will only appear in private.

A dog that bites people never barks. Of course, Li Ru didn't say that Lu Bu was a dog, but he just used it as a metaphor, when he resented a person and complained about a physique, he would never show it on the surface. This is the only situation that occurs when there is no such thing as anger and emotion, and when there is no control over oneself.

Lu Bu is not this kind of person, and Lu Bu, who can endure that breath with Li Ru's understanding of Lu Bu, is definitely not a simple person. Coupled with the force he possessed, Li Ru was really impressed by Lu Bu.

If it was replaced by other irascible generals, they might just leave and would not stay under Ding Yuan's command. Lu Bu can endure for so long, which has proven that he is not the kind of pure military general, who can only kill the enemy on a war horse and will not live under a horse. But those who can endure it have a limit after all, and when the limit is reached, they will eventually break through that layer of shackles and burst out everything.

Ding Yuan's so-called history of the state assassin is too exaggerated, and his virtue and ability are completely unable to match the official position of the assassin history. In Li Ru's opinion, he is simply a jealous and capable person, and he doesn't even know the rewards and punishments of the soldiers under his command, how can such a person control the affairs of a state?

But it is only one person who can give them a chance, and they have a way to start. Replaced by other Taishou, the other courtiers who brought soldiers and horses to exterminate the Ten Standing Servants, either there were too few soldiers and horses and it was not worth starting, or it was difficult to intervene in those who had strong control over the army.

Only Ding Yuan is here, Ding Yuan is very different here, don't look at Ding Yuan's control over the army under his command is enough, but this is only for those who don't know why. As Li Ru knew, Ding Yuan had control over his army, but there was another point, there were other people in the army who could take his place.

That is Lu Bu, not someone else, it is Lu Bu. As a general in the Bingzhou Army, although his official position is the main one, in fact, he is the most indispensable one in the Bingzhou Army.

Whether it is prestige in the army or connections in the army, Lu Bu has the appearance of faintly surpassing Ding Yuan. A military general who charges into battle is different from sitting behind the scenes, and every time he fights, he will accumulate a lot of prestige. has accumulated again and again, and the final achievement is the prestige that can be compared to Ding Yuan in the army.

It can be said that as long as Ding Yuan disappears, then Lu Bu can gain absolute control in the current Bingzhou army. Those soldiers, those other generals in the army, are all under Lu Bu's command, and the generals are also Lu Bu's old generals, and the rest of the army can be completely contained in their hands.

recruited Lu Bu, and Lu Bu was naturally their own person. His own people, then his army naturally belongs to his own army, and now in the army, plus the army led by Ding Yuan to Luoyang City, he can already control the situation in the entire Luoyang City.

The only thing is that there is no chaotic situation that can take the opportunity to make it easier for them to control and screen out all their opponents.

It won't be a problem anymore, there's no chaos, it's in your favor, and you can create it yourself. For him, no matter what the situation is, as long as he wants to, then he can create opportunities that are beneficial to him.

If Lu Bu succeeds here, there will be basically no problem. The conditions given are good enough, and in addition, some of the troops collected from Ding Yuan's command will be handed over to Lu Bu to control at that time.

Li Ru didn't believe in such conditions, and Lu Bu wouldn't be tempted. On the contrary, he knows that a person who has no talent and is not valued, when there is such an opportunity, he must estimate and think, and will not refuse.

The only problem is that we can't be sure yet, we can't put all of this together. If it can be determined, Li Ru doesn't have to worry about any accidents anymore. Yes, now there are too many accidents in Luoyang City, after one accident after another, they still insist on the original intention of coming to Luoyang City at the beginning, which is really rare and also dangerous.

Opportunities and risks go hand in hand, don't they?

If you want to get something, sometimes you have to give something to get what you want to get.

In essence, Li Ru felt that he was exactly the same as those he had seen on the side who were in a situation of no return, pursuing a possibility, the same boldness, and the same fearlessness of death.

If the plot is revealed, he will definitely be punished by the clan, and he will never recover. But so what? If you succeed, it is also a great cause that many people cannot do in a few lifetimes!

Like an arrow, I have to go to the present and go back. There's not much room to retreat in. Including the management of more than a dozen people in Liangzhou, his assistance is not to say that this day has come, but looking back now, it has indeed contributed to the arrival of this day.

Everything that should be prepared has been prepared, and what needs to be done has been done, and now for him, there is only waiting left. Now he has to wait, wait for the arrival of news from Lu Bu's side, and wait until tomorrow when Li Su goes to Lu Bu for the fourth time, whether his heart hangs or falls, there will finally be an answer.

As for the other, it is the new emperor who has ascended the throne. In a few days, three days, the new emperor will ascend the throne. That was his last chance, once the new emperor ascended the throne and the situation stabilized, with his strategy, he couldn't find any more places to take advantage of.

Either before this, or after this, they can go home and return to Liangzhou. At that time, although he could not achieve his ambition, he also avoided a downfall.

At least as long as people live, they can see hope and victory, right? Compared to this, I don't know how many people have died, and there is no hope at all, and they have become losers.

"Stupid idea." Li Ru chuckled lowly.

His thoughts at the moment were the same as those he thought were beasts, those who he thought were not "people" and were not opponents.

Admittedly, he's just a mortal, and the only thing that can be praised is probably that he's a little smarter than the others, that's all.

Li Ru closed his eyes, and after the soldiers checked that there was no problem with the food, his lunch meal would soon be delivered. Of course, he wanted to eat another "big meal" more than eating.
