Three Kingdoms: Jiuyuan Tiger

Chapter 269

"However, the three battalions of infantry, Changshui, and Shesheng were not built after reorganization. These three battalions were originally commanded by the late general He Jin. Beginning to move into these three battalions, the infantry battalion was finally held in the hands of the emperor's confidant Lu Zhi, the first battalion of Changshui was taken by Yuan's family, and the first battalion of Shesheng was divided into two halves, and the other half was taken by Cao Cao, the cavalry captain. , and the other half fell into the hands of Hongnong Yang." Li Fang explained to Xiong Kuohai in detail.

"So, it is almost impossible for the other captains of the third battalion to win over?" Xiong Kuohai suddenly realized.

"Exactly!" Li Fang shook his head and said helplessly.

Li Fang has nothing to do about this. Since he has chosen to join Dong Zhuo, he naturally hopes that the other three battalions can also join in. It is a pity that he has long been "a famous flower with a master". strength.

After all, sometimes, if the hoe is not swung well, the corner of the wall will fall.

This time when Xiong Kuo Hai met Li Fang, he also got Li Ru's instruction to come here.

Li Ru had already talked with Li Fang for a long time, but at the beginning Li Ru didn't dare to directly explain why he came here. Who would dare to say clearly about the loss of his head?

Digging the corner of the emperor's wall in broad daylight is not the way to die!
But after Li Ru went through a lot of side-talking, he found that Li Fang is a villain who only cares about profit.

Since you are greedy for money, things will be easy to handle!

After that, Li Ru let go of himself and started the journey to win over Li Fang.

Originally, Li Fang was on two boats, loyal to the emperor on the surface, and secretly joined the Yuan family, but after being wooed by Li Ru, Li Fang directly threw his old boss, the Yuan family, aside, determined to follow Dong Zhuoqian.

Qian Jun, the school lieutenant of the Yueqi Battalion, did the same thing. In fact, they were not the only ones, except for the first infantry battalion under Commander Lu Zhi, the Changshui and Shesheng Battalions also did the same.

Even though everyone doesn't think highly of the young emperor and the Empress Dowager He who is in charge of politics behind the curtain, it still has to be done to save face.

Therefore, most of the lieutenants of the Fifth Northern Army School declared that they were loyal to the emperor, but they secretly chose a master to serve them.

In this troubled world, there is nothing wrong with stepping on two boats, the most important thing is being able to survive.

Then Xiong Kuohai talked with Li Fang again, and then the two left Zuixianju one after another.

Li Fang returned to his cavalry camp, while Xiong Kuohai returned to Sanfu.

Before Xiong Kuohai left Zuixianju, the shopkeeper of Zuixianju sent Xiong Kuohai outside the door.

The shopkeeper of Zuixianju didn't ignorantly ask Xiong Kuohai to come back next time, he also has a β number in his heart, this is basically a one-shot deal, how can there be a next time?
But before he died, he still had to struggle a bit, so the shopkeeper of Zuixianju chose to respectfully send Xiong Kuohai out of Zuixianju.

As for whether Xiong Kuo Hai will come or not, this is Xiong Kuo Hai's business, and he cannot help Xiong Kuo Hai decide.

After returning to Sansuke, Xiong Kuohai immediately informed Li Ru of the conversation between Li Fang and the others.

Xiong Kuohai didn't dare to wait, drank a lot of wine, and if he didn't tell Li Ru that he would forget about it later, it would be a bad thing!

Until now, Xiong Kuohai didn't understand why Li Ru asked him, a big bastard, to discuss with others. Wouldn't it be good for Li Ru to go by himself?

But Xiong Kuohai has an advantage, that is, he never asks what shouldn't be asked, and he will go if Li Ru tells him to go, why not?

Li Ru nodded after hearing this, and said to Xiong Kuohai, "Thank you, General!"

Xiong Kuohai grinned after hearing this: "It's just a few trivial things, sir, don't thank me!"

Afterwards, Xiong Kuohai bid farewell to Li Ru and returned to the tent to rest, while Li Ru started his new round of planning.

The matter of the fifth school of the Northern Army is quite complicated, and the plan that was made before has to be re-drawn!

In addition, the matter of buying Cao Ning should also be put on the agenda!

Li Ru also knew that his lord was not a man of character, he had been made to wait for so long, God knows what this irritable Xiliang brother would do if he waited longer.

Li Ru knew his master's temperament, he was so ruthless that even the old sow... would eat the whole head once he ate it.

Li Ru is a thoughtful person, not only the chief counselor of the Xiliang Group, but also Dong Zhuo's only think tank.

Speaking of which, Lu Bu was still a little jealous of Li Ru.

Why?

Because Li Ru was ahead of this era to a certain extent, Li Ru had a special intelligence agency under his command and was directly responsible to Li Ru.

All the big and small matters of the intelligence system are decided by Li Ru alone.

As Dong Zhuo's son-in-law and chief adviser, Dong Zhuo gave Li Ru full trust and never intervened in the affairs of the intelligence system.

What Li Ru needs to do is to collect information, then simplify it, and select the valuable information in it to inform Dong Zhuo.

It is precisely because of this intelligence agency that Li Ru was able to learn many secrets that others did not know.

For example, the new captains of the Tunqi and Yueqi battalions are all profit-seeking people. For example, the relationship between Ding Yuan and his adopted son Cao Ning is not as harmonious as outsiders see.

If it weren't for this intelligence system, how could Li Ru spend so much effort on Cao Ning?

These days, there is a lot of emphasis on being a "monarch, relative and teacher of heaven and earth", even if it is a righteous father and adopted son, with this level of relationship, most people would not dare to pry this corner rashly.

But Li Ru dare!

Not only that, Li Ru even dared to poach the corner of the emperor's wall, because Li Ru's confidantes also existed in the palace.

Although the status of these people is not high, almost all of them are eunuchs, servants or court ladies, but as long as you inquire carefully, you will always get some useful information.

For someone like Li Ru, it is a big mistake to classify him as a second- and third-rate counselor.

Li Ru is the only advisor under Dong Zhuo's command, and Li Ru is also Dong Zhuo's only trusted advisor.

Why can Dong Zhuo occupy Luoyang?Although this is related to Dong Zhuo's strong strength, Li Ru's role is also indispensable.

In other words, Li Ru's position in Dong Zhuo's group is no less than that of Zhuge Liang in Liu Bei's group and Zhou Yu's in Sun's group.

Dong Zhuo was able to dominate the situation in the early days of the Three Kingdoms, and Li Ru's plan played a vital role.

There is not much description of Li Ru in the original book and in the history books, but every time Li Ru makes a move, it can be said that if he does not make a sound, he has become a blockbuster.

In the original book, when He Jin summoned the frontier army to Beijing to kill the ten permanent attendants, Li Ru had already made his debut.

Before Dong Zhuo led his troops into Beijing, Li Ru suggested: "Although the imperial edict is being issued today, there are many ambiguities in the middle. Why don't you send someone to submit a letter, the name is right and the word is right, and great things can be achieved."

The "upper form" is to formally express the intention to the emperor and the court.

After this list was passed, Dong Zhuo became a courtier who took the initiative to help the royal family clean up the rebellious party, and justifiably occupied the righteousness.

It is precisely because of this that the Dong Zhuo Group's march to the capital has the so-called legitimacy.

The second time Li Ru made a move was when Dong Zhuo was discussing abolishing the emperor.

Dong Zhuo asked Li Ru for advice, and Li Ru replied: "There is no master in the imperial court. If we don't act at this time, there will be changes if it is too late. In the Wenming Garden, we will call all the officials and order them to be abolished; those who disobey will be executed. Then the journey of authority is happening today."

The response of a group of civil and military ministers to this was: "After hearing this, all officials dare not speak out."

Under Li Ru's step-by-step deployment, Dong Zhuo directly abolished Liu Bian and made Liu Xie emperor, and later poisoned Liu Bian to prevent future troubles.

Li Ru's third shot allowed Dong Zhuo to obtain the world's number one fierce general Lu Bu at the price of the hissing red rabbit horse, and also killed Ding Yuan along the way, taking over Ding Yuan's Bingzhou Wolf Rider.

In the fourth attack, Lu Bu was defeated, and Li Ru suggested moving the capital to Chang'an, which made the precarious Dong Zhuo Group linger for a while.

The fifth shot made Cao Wei's overlord Cao Mengde suffer the first defeat in his life, and even almost lost his life.

For this strategic deployment, Li Ru arranged it like this: "The prime minister has just abandoned Luoyang to guard against pursuers. You can teach Xu Rong to ambush the army by the side of the mountain dock outside Xingyang City. If there are soldiers chasing you, you can let them go; I will kill here, and then intercept and conceal the kill, so that those who come after me will not dare to pursue."

Just like that, Boss Cao was brutally beaten by Dong Zhuo's general Xu Rong in Xingyang. How can it be a miserable word?
If it wasn't for Cao Hong, the brother of the family, who desperately rescued him and gave up the horse to Boss Cao, probably there would be no story about Boss Cao's later life.

It's a pity that Li Ru followed the wrong master, unlike Jia Xu who was wise and protective, Li Ru followed for a lifetime.

If it was a different master, Li Ru's glorious deeds would not stop there, and Li Ru would not end up being beheaded.

Regarding Li Ru's ending, there are many versions. In the original book, Li Ru was tied up by his subordinates to ask Wang Yun for credit, and was eventually beheaded by Wang Yun.

But in the version of "Book of Wei", Li Ru did not die, but disappeared without a trace, and there is no clear record in the history books.
