Agents of the Three Kingdoms

Dangyin County, the county seat.

In the government office, Huang Zhong was sitting directly above the hall, Jia Xu was sitting first on the left, and Yan Liang was sitting first on the right.

In the center of the hall stood a man with his hands bound.

This person is none other than Li Ru, who was captured. Nearly [-] Xiliang troops were defeated, and Li Ru, who was unwell, could not escape. Apart from Li Ru, Xu Huang, Dong Yue, Niu Fu and other Xiliang army leaders , were all captured alive, and none of them escaped.

Li Ru's mind was not on Huang Zhong, but on Jia Xu, and he said coldly: "I didn't lose to the Jizhou army in this battle, but I lost to the food issue. What I'm curious about is that you Jia Xu How did Wenhe contact Dong Lian, or what reason did you use to convince Dong Lian to attack me?"

Jia Xu gently shook the feather fan in his hand, and said in a leisurely manner: "Li Taiwei is so sure, did I persuade Dong Lian with my interests?"

Li Ru snorted and said: "That's not the case, what else can I do? Dong Lian has Dong Huang's trust and power, so it's impossible to follow Wang Lei's example. Dong Lian's only possibility is to be moved by your interests, naive consider you a reliable ally,'

Jia Xu sneered, "He is really a smart person."

After a pause, Jia Xu said, "To tell you the truth, Dong Lian belongs to my master,"

"impossible,"

Li Ru's complexion changed drastically, and he directly shook his head in denial.

Jia Xu said: "Whether you believe it or not, this is an indisputable fact. The real Dong Lian was killed by me when he came to Ye County a few years ago. I found Dong Lian who returned to Chang'an." a similar person,"

Speaking of this, Jia Xu's mouth curled into a smug smile.

Back then, Dong Lian was very arrogant in Ye County, but he met Wang Lei and hit the iron plate. According to Wang Lei's original intention, he planned to execute Dong Lian, but Jia Xu asked Dong Lian to go there. People imitate Dong Lian's behavior and dynamics, and only let 'Dong Lian' return to Dong Huang's side when the fake Dong Lian is [-]% similar.

Because of Dong Lian's existence, Jia Xu was able to know what Zhang Liao had committed in advance, and was able to use the food to poison him, and took away nearly [-] troops under Li Ru's command in one fell swoop.

Such achievements all came from Dong Lian's operation.

Li Ru listened to the ins and outs, and his eyes were full of horror. He didn't expect Jia Xu's scheme to be so profound, and he started planning Chang'an as early as a few years ago.

Li Ru sighed softly, and said, "You won, but I was convinced that I lost,"

Jia Xu said: "Since you are a prisoner, you should stay in the camp and watch us break through Chang'an." Jia Xu waved his hand and asked the soldiers to take Li Ru down.

Yan Liang looked at Li Ru's leaving back, and asked, "Military Master, you captured Li Ru, won't you surrender?"

Jia Xu replied, "Leave this man to the lord."

Huang Zhong's eyes lit up, and he understood Jia Xu's intentions. Li Ru was different from Zhang Liao. Zhang Liao was just an ordinary general, and Li Ru was the man in command. It was very difficult to deal with such a person, and it was best to leave it to Wang Lei. suitable.

Huang Zhong said: "Military division, take advantage of today's big victory, let's continue to attack."

Jia Xu nodded and said: "With Dong Lian as the internal support, this battle will undoubtedly be won. Send troops to kill Chang'an."

After discussing with Jia Xu, Huang Zhong and Jia Xu made a final arrangement.

The army rested in Dangyin County for three days, screened the soldiers of the Xiliang Army, dispersed the qualified ones and rushed into the army, and repatriated all the unqualified ones with money. As a result, the strength of Commander Huang Zhong rose in a straight line. At that time, there were [-] soldiers, but now, there are as many as [-] troops.

In fact, this is because most of the Xiliang Army has been eliminated. If all the soldiers of the Xiliang Army were included in the army, the force would be even larger. As the army left Dangyin County, Huang Zhong sent people to take Li News of Confucianism's arrest spread.

In the Xiliang Army, Li Ru is an Optimus Prime, standing still.

Suddenly, Li Ru fell and was captured by the Jizhou army. The sky of Xiliang army officials collapsed. Wherever Huang Zhong's army passed, all counties and counties surrendered one after another. In just half a month, Huang Zhong led his troops to kill When he arrived in Luoyang, he occupied the capital of Luoyang. At the same time, Wang Lei led his army to pacify Bingzhou, and also led the army southward into Hanoi County and arrived in Luoyang.

The two armies met at Luoyang.

……

Chang'an, Meiwu.

Xiangguo Mansion, in the hall.

Dong Lian knelt on the ground, his voice choked up, and he said in shame: "Xiangguo, Li Ru was defeated and captured, it was all my fault. I wanted to support Li Ru and let Li Ru defeat Huang Zhong. Unexpectedly, the food sent out came out." The problem, after the minister sent people to investigate, it was found that the grain collected was mildewed and washed and then dried. These grains looked no different from good grains, but soldiers would be poisoned after eating them. Because of the grain problems, it led to The failure of this battle, this battle is my fault, please punish the Prime Minister, "

Dong Lian's voice was choked with sobs, and there was deep sadness in his eyes.

Dong Huang laughed, waved his hands and said, "Brother Lian, get up and talk, get up and talk first."

Dong Lian stubbornly knelt on the ground, with wet eyes, and said shamelessly: "I made a big mistake and dare not stand up. The reason for the defeat in this battle is all caused by me."

Dong Juan said, "I didn't say you were guilty, get up."

Only then did Dong Lian stand up and stand respectfully.

Dong Huang said: "Brother Lian, you said before that we can't fight among ourselves, the reasoning is correct, but I thought about it later, if nothing happened to Li Ru, after he defeated Huang Zhong, his prestige would rise to a higher level, and even more It is unstoppable, and moreover, with the power in Li Ru's hands, it is impossible for us to defeat Li Ru,"

Speaking of this, Dong Huang paused for a while, and said: "The only chance to defeat Li Ru is Li Ru's defeat. Now, Li Ru's defeat and capture is my chance to take power."

Dong Lian's eyes lit up, and he said: "Xiangguo's analysis is reasonable, but the army led by Li Ru is destroyed, and we will have great difficulties in defending Chang'an."

Dong Huang said confidently: "It is indeed difficult, but as long as Chang'an is defended, the benefits will be self-evident. Li Ru has been captured, and no one in the court will be my opponent."

Dong Lian was overjoyed and said: "Xiangguo is wise, this analysis is penetrating."

Dong Huang stroked the mustache under his chin, with a proud expression on his face.

Dong Lian couldn't help looking forward to it and said: "Xiangguo has blocked Wang Lei's attack, and his reputation will be like the sky. When the time comes, Xiangguo will be in charge of the government, and it will not be difficult to go further. He will definitely be able to create the foundation of the Dong family."

When Dong Huang heard the words, he couldn't help showing a touch of excitement in his eyes, he understood Dong Lian's implication.

To go further, it is natural to be called the emperor and the ancestor.

Dong Huang flicked his sleeves and said, "Brother Lian, you are fully responsible for the recruitment and deployment of the army. In the shortest possible time, mobilize all the troops to prepare to resist Wang Lei's army. The city of Chang'an is strong, easy to defend and difficult to attack. I believe it can be done." Block Wang Lei's attack,"

Dong Lian said loudly, "I will do my best to stop Wang Lei even if I die."

After discussing the follow-up matters with Dong Huang, Dong Lian got up and left to prepare for the rest of the matters.

……

Fanyang County, Jizhou Army Barracks.

Zhang Ja, Tian Feng, Qianzhao, and Gan Ning sat in the tent, and Zhang Ja had a happy expression on his face: "My lord and the army led by Huang Zhong have won victory, especially the army led by Huang Zhong has achieved a remarkable victory." Victory, almost all the soldiers under Li Ru's command were captured, the lord and Huang Zhong won the victory, Cao Cao can't hold on for long, "

Tian Feng said with emotion: "Jia Xu's plan is indeed powerful, it is simply unknown to ghosts and gods, but until now, I don't know how he won. This battle is a bit mysterious."

Zhang Jai nodded, and he didn't know the reason.

Gan Ning said, "General Zhang, the other two routes have won. When will our route take the initiative to attack?"

Zhang Jai shook his head and said, "No hurry, the time is not yet."

Gan Ning was dumbfounded, he followed Zhang Jai to fight, he wanted to make contributions, but he didn't expect this to be the case, Gan Ning took a look at Zhang Jaw, and after a while, he suppressed the depression in his heart.

Zhang Ja didn't explain it. In Zhang Ja's view, Cao Cao should be the one who was anxious about Wang Lei and Huang Zhong's victory, not him. At this time, the more stable Zhang Jai defended, the more anxious Cao Cao would be.

……

Puyang County, Yanzhou Military Camp.

The faces of Cao Cao, Xun You and Xi Zhicai were all very serious in the big tent of the Chinese army. The reason was the news that Wang Lei defeated Xu Rong and Huang Zhong captured Li Ru alive. This battle was composed of Li Ru and Cao Cao The three-way army, but just after the battle, Li Ru and Xu Rong were completely defeated, and the depression in Cao Cao's heart can be imagined.

Cao Cao said, "Gongda, military advisor, what do you think of Li Ru's defeat?"

Xi Zhicai said in a deep voice: "Li Ru's defeat has had a great impact. If Li Ru hadn't been defeated, Wang Lei would have been restrained. But Li Ru and Xu Rong were defeated. Wang Lei can attack Yanzhou at any time. We are fighting alone. "

After a pause, Xi Zhicai said again: "Wang Lei defeated Li Ru and swept Bingzhou. The general trend has been achieved. If Wang Lei is not given a heavy blow at this time and Wang Lei is allowed to develop, the situation of the lord will become more and more difficult."

Xun You said: "I agree with the military adviser's analysis. No matter what, this battle must go on. Even if it hurts Wang Lei's vitality, it must hurt Wang Lei. Please send someone to contact Liu Bei and Jiangdong Sun Ce, and unite everyone to resist Wang Lei."

When Cao Cao thought of Wang Lei's tyrannical strength, he couldn't help feeling agitated.

Wang Lei is really too strong.

Cao Cao nodded and said, "I will send people to contact more allies, but what should we do now if we want to fight to the death?" Cao Cao rolled his eyes, thinking about the solution in his mind.

Xun You said: "Zhang Jai defends tightly, and it is very difficult to defeat Zhang Jai. I think we can secretly dispatch troops to open up the rest of the battlefield." Xun You came to the map, pointed at the map, and said slowly: "Qinghe Kingdom and Yanzhou, Qingzhou border, this area can become our second battlefield,"

Xi Zhicai's eyes brightened, and he said: "We stationed troops in Puyang County, and Zhang Liao's forces hit here, and in this battle, Wang Lei mobilized all the troops from Jizhou. We must have taken it by surprise when we suddenly attacked Qinghe Kingdom."

"That's the reason,"

In Xun You's eyes, there is a strong confidence.

After thinking about it, Cao Cao nodded in agreement, and discussed with Xi Zhicai and Xun You,
