Summoning the Peak of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 805
Chapter 803: Du Ruhui
After Li Shimin led 15 troops into Sizhou, the first thing he did was to receive the military power of Sizhou's 15 troops. So far, Sizhou Governor Yang Jian has also become Li Shimin's subordinate.

At the military and political meeting, Li Shimin looked at Yang Jian and asked seriously, "Uncle Yang, how is Sizhou's military force deployed?"

In this life, Li Yuan and Yang Jian are good friends, and Li Shimin and Yang Guang are also good friends. It is only natural for Li Shimin to call Yang Jian uncle.

Li Shimin, the son and nephew, restrained himself in turn. Although Yang Jian was extremely dissatisfied, he didn't show it. After pondering for a while, he replied: "At present, there are [-] Hulao Pass, Yique Pass, Xuanyuan Pass, Guangcheng Pass, Mengjin Pass, etc. Guan each has [-], and Luoyang has [-]."

In fact, there is another pass after Hulao Pass, which is called Dagu Pass.

Although Dagu Pass is not as good as Hulao Pass, it is also one of the most famous passes in the world.

During the Yellow Turban Rebellion, Bai Qi relied on the steepness of Dagu Pass to forcibly surrender hundreds of thousands of Yellow Turban troops under Chen Youliang's command, and finally became famous in the first battle.

In the defection incident of prisoners of war, Daguguan was taken away by the Yellow Turban prisoners of war, and then a section of the city wall was hammered down by Li Yuanba.

After this time, Dong Zhuo also realized that in the continuous high-intensity offensive and defensive battles, the foundation of Daguguan had been severely damaged, and he could no longer bear the important task of Sizhou gate.

Before Hulaoguan was rebuilt, Hulaoguan was destroyed in the second battle of Hulaoguan.

The two gates to the east of Sizhou were all destroyed by the war, and it would be too much of a burden for Sizhou to rebuild the two grand gates at once, but it is really impossible not to rebuild them as a gate.

After tangling for a long time, Yang Jian decided to temporarily abandon Dagu Pass, and try his best to build a Hulao Pass that is even more defensive than before. After it is completed, he will concentrate manpower and material resources to rebuild Dagu Pass.

But who would have thought that after Hulao Pass was rebuilt, Dagu Pass had just been opened, and Qin Hao organized an alliance to fight over.

At this time, there is only Hulao pass between Sizhou and Yanzhou.

The reason why the Dong Lianjun concentrated in Suanzao was not only because Suanzao was the closest to Hulao Pass, but also because they could directly attack Luoyang just by breaking Hulao.

And if you attack Sizhou from the south, you need to break through at least two important passes in a row before you can attack Luoyang, so the casualties will definitely increase greatly, so of course you have to go the way of Dongfang Hulao Pass.

"Is there only [-] troops at Hulao Pass?"

A strange look flashed in Li Shimin's eyes, and he said to himself in surprise: "The coalition forces of the princes are as high as 55. Such a force may not be able to forcibly capture Hulao. Why didn't Qin Hao attack the key before my reinforcements arrived?"

"The coalition formed by the 36 vassals is too messy in composition, and it cannot form an effective combat force if it is not integrated."

After Yang Jian pondered for a while, he said as it should: "Qin Hao probably wants to be more powerful after integration, and the loss of attacking Hulao will be minimized."

"But after the arrival of my 15 reinforcements, it will be more difficult for the allied forces of the princes to capture Hulao? It is impossible for Qin Hao to understand such an obvious truth." Li Shimin said in a deep voice.

"This……"

Yang Jian was immediately speechless when asked, and at the same time found that something was wrong.

Qin Hao's 15th army has been victorious in all battles. It is impossible not to understand that waiting for [-] soldiers to arrive at the sight reading is an act of delaying combat power.

At this time, a middle-aged literati below smiled at Li Shimin and said, "My lord, if my subordinate guessed correctly, Qin Hao should have a deeper purpose for doing this."

"Oh?"

Li Shimin's eyes lit up immediately, and he said hastily: "Military division, please come quickly."

Yang Jian was startled, military advisor?This person is actually Li Shimin's military adviser?How dare Li Shimin set up a military division?

A military adviser is also a mastermind, who thinks of the monarch, and is conspired by the monarch.

In this era, the official position of a military adviser may not be the highest, but it means that one person is under one person and above ten thousand people.

Dong Zhuo has Li Ru and Jia Xu, Qin Wen has drama talents, Qin Hao has Liu Bowen, Fang Xuanling, etc...

Generally, except for princes, small warlords are not qualified to set up military divisions, and although Li Shimin is a prince, he is still under Dong Zhuo's command after all, so how can he openly set up military divisions?

Regarding this, Yang Jian just wanted to say one thing: I am so courageous.

Anyway, Yang Jian didn't dare to do this, and if it aroused Dong Zhuo's fear, then even if he didn't die, he would definitely lose his skin.

Yang Jian felt relieved when he thought that Li Shimin was Dong Zhuo's son-in-law.

Dong Zhuo's only son, Dong Bi, died tragically at the hands of Xiang Yu during the first battle of Hulaoguan. Although Dong Zhuo is now sowing everywhere, he has nothing to harvest.

Dong Zhuo is not young anymore, and this huge foundation must be inherited by someone. At present, the only ones who are qualified to inherit Dong Zhuo's foundation are the few sons-in-law and nephews, and among them, Li Shimin is the most likely one.

Dong Zhuo would give Li Shimin such great power, and he was probably cultivating Li Shimin as his heir, so why would he care about the trivial matter of Li Shimin setting up a military division?

As soon as he thought of this, Yang Jian felt extremely unwilling. He also wanted Yang Guang to inherit Dong Zhuo's foundation, so he had the cheek to propose marriage to Dong Zhuo.

As long as Yang Guang also became Dong Zhuo's son-in-law, he would have the opportunity to compete fairly with Li Shimin.

But who knows that Dong Zhuo's young daughter, Dong Xiaowan, dislikes Yang Guang for being too playful, and would rather die than marry Yang Guang. Dong Zhuo's love for his daughter politely rejects Yang Jian.

Back to business, Yang Jian looked at the other party carefully and asked, "Who is this gentleman?"

"I'm Du Ruhui."

"It turned out to be Mr. Du. I have admired you for a long time." Yang Jian said with a smile, but he felt a little jealous in his heart.

Because Yang Jian had heard of this name before, he was very famous in Kansai, and he even refused Dong Zhuo's enlistment, but unexpectedly he turned to Li Shimin.

Facing the enthusiastic Yang Jian, Du Ruhui's eyes flashed a strange color, and then he said to Li Shimin in a deep voice, "My lord, if the subordinates are right, Qin Hao should have waited for the lord to come over on purpose."

"But why?" Li Shimin asked suspiciously.

Du Ruhui sneered, and said lightly: "If my reinforcements haven't arrived, and our army's strength is far inferior to the enemy's, even if Qin Hao is the leader of the alliance, we can only let the coalition army attack Luoyang, after all, the casualties of such an attack will definitely be the least.

And if our reinforcements arrive, the attack on Hulao Pass will fall into a war of attrition, and the casualties of a forced attack will be too great, and Qin Hao can divide his troops openly and drive the coalition forces to attack other checkpoints. "

Li Shimin's own intelligence is also extremely high, Du Ruhui reminded him a little, and he immediately figured out the key point.

"So to say……"

Li Shimin's face became gloomy, and he said in a deep voice: "Qin Hao wants to use the power of the princes to capture the eight passes of Luoyang, so as to occupy the four counties of Sizhou."

　On the way to Jinan on the high-speed train, Liu Xiang watched an episode of the TV version of Dou Po, but she almost died of anger.
