Chapter 161
Yuan Shu's face was gloomy and terrifying when he saw the cowering expressions.

But he was also afraid that Dong Zhuo had an ambush, digging traps waiting for him.

After waiting for a while, seeing that no one spoke, Yuan Shu snorted coldly, got up and left with a shake of his hand.

Seeing Yuan Shu leaving, Tian Feng turned his head and left with cold eyes.

At such a moment, if you are indecisive and dare not use your life, how can you make a big deal?

The remaining Xu You, Yuan Huan, and Guo Tu looked at each other, but none of them spoke.

In fact, they all knew in their hearts that Dong Zhuo must have a plan for abandoning the Chen country and going to the Liang country, and the plan is not small!If we don't step up the attack now, we will let Dong Zhuo recruit troops and continue to grow stronger!
But no one dared to assume that Dong Zhuo was responsible for the trap!

They dare not, Yuan Shu can't!
After a while, Yuan Huan opened his mouth, looked at Xu You and said, "Ziyuan, do you think it's time to march in?"

Xu You rolled his eyelids to the sky, and said calmly: "I don't think it's important, it still depends on the attitude of the lord."

Seeing that Xu You refused to tell the truth, Yuan Huan glanced at Guo Tu again, and pretended to think: "Ziyuan, what I mean is that we must march in now, and we can't give Dong Zhuo time to breathe. As for Dong Zhuo's trap, we just need to divide our troops." Just march in, don’t need to worry too much.”

'It's underestimating him. '

Xu You looked at Yuan Huan calmly, and said, "Aren't you worried about being defeated by Dong Zhuo one by one?"

Yuan Huan sensed that Xu You had thoughts, and immediately expressed sincerity, and said, "Ziyuan, you and I are the lord's advisers, and we should share the master's worries. Ziyuan, please speak up if you have something to say."

Xu You glanced at Guo Tu, thought about it, snorted coldly in his heart, and said to himself: I'll let you guys see it!
Xu You clasped his hands, lowered his eyes, and said in a gesture of looking down on the two of them, "Dong Zhuo abandoned Chen Guo and went to Liang Guo. Apart from money and food, the most important thing is that he is alone and lonely. He knows that he is not the lord's opponent." , had to evacuate. Secondly, because Chen State and Pei State were connected to Xuzhou, Dong Zhuo was originally a tiger wolf. He wanted to gain a foothold in Liang and Pei to compete with the lord, and at the same time support his own strength and stand on his own in the imperial court."

Yuan Huan listened, and hurriedly said: "Then, what's wrong with dividing up the troops and pursuing them?"

Xu You chuckled, and said: "Dong Zhuo abandoned Chen Guo and entered Liang and Pei, and he has no intention of conquering the lord. After chasing him, the trap is different. If the old thief no longer sticks to it, but goes all the way east, enters Xuzhou, and fights with him." Tao Qian is united, is it possible that the lord will give up Yuzhou and chase all the way to Xuzhou?"

Yuan Huan and Guo Tu were startled, and could not help but look at each other.

Guo Tu then raised his hand and asked for advice, "What does Yi Ziyuan mean?"

Xu You clasped his hands, looked conceitedly, and said: "Draw troops from Xuzhou and encircle Dong Zhuo. As long as Dong Zhuo is destroyed, Yu and Xu will be in the hands of the lord!"

Yuan Huan was secretly startled, Xu You actually wanted to draw troops from Xuzhou?Yuan Shu will definitely not agree to give up Xuzhou, which is at his fingertips!

Xu You could see it naturally, folded his hands, and said in a pointing tone: "The court has no soldiers and food, and Dong Zhuo is alone and helpless. This is the best time to destroy him! If you miss now, wait for the Xia tax to enter the court. Dong Zhuo has a strong army and a strong horse, and it will be as difficult as going to heaven to destroy him. You two, think about it."

After speaking, Xu You turned around, and Shi Shiran strode away.

Yuan Huan and Guo Tu squinted, and waited for Xu You to leave, then walked quickly to the side door.

Before they approached, Yuan Shu walked out.

His expression was as usual, his eyes were cold, and he looked out of the empty door.

Yuan Huan bowed in front of him, observed his expression, and said cautiously: "My lord, what Ziyuan said still has some truth."

Yuan Shu was quite tall and heroic, glanced away from the corner of his eye, and said coldly: "Do you also think that troops should be drawn from Xuzhou?"

Yuan Huan's heart tightened suddenly, and Guo Tu immediately said: "My lord, I think it's impossible. If troops are withdrawn from Xuzhou, then Tao Qian will definitely send troops to support Dong Zhuo if he occupies Xuzhou again, which will be very unfavorable to the situation!"

Yuan Huan breathed a sigh of relief, and then said: "My lord, the lower officials thought that the attack should be divided up and Dong Zhuo should not be given a chance to breathe!"

Yuan Shu was still thinking about Xu You's words, and said bitterly: "Dividing the troops will definitely defeat the old thieves. Tomorrow, I will personally lead the troops to attack Suiyang!"

tomorrow?

Yuan Huan and Guo Tu looked at each other, and after two days, who knows where Dong Zhuo went?

He wanted to give advice, but he understood Yuan Shu's intentions in a blink of an eye, and swallowed his words back.

Yuan Shu was still scared.

At the same time, Dong Zhuo's army was divided into four groups, and under the banner of "killing the rebellion" in Liang State, they looted everywhere, massacred, ransacked their homes, and plundered money and food for the aristocratic families who surrendered to Yuan Shu.

Inside Ningling City.

Dong Zhuo took a bath and came out of the back hall, feeling very comfortable. Seeing Jia Xu, Niu Fu and others present, his old face was full of smiles. good!"

In just one day, they got tens of thousands of shi of grain and tens of millions of dollars. If they reached Suiyang all the way, they would have no shortage of food, grass and military pay.

Jia Xu looked at him and said, "Mr. Dong, it's not too late. We have to arrive in Suiyang as soon as possible, lest Yuan Shu catch up."

Dong Zhuo wanted to enjoy himself, but he also knew the soldiers. As soon as he sat down, he said, "Wen He is right. He ordered all the soldiers to rest for an hour and leave immediately."

Jia Xu didn't speak any more, just sat aside and ate politely.

Dong Zhuo was also feasting, eating meat and drinking heavily.

An hour later, Dong Zhuo personally led an army of [-], left Ningling, and went straight to Suiyang, where Liang Guozhi was.

As soon as the army left, Ningling was in a mess, dilapidated everywhere, and howling was everywhere.

Dong Zhuo didn't stop, his speed was extremely fast.

Burning, killing and looting along the way, especially focusing on the rich and powerful families, no grass grows wherever they pass.

When we arrived in Suiyang, the city of Suiyang was almost empty.

How could Dong Zhuo be willing to go east all the way to Peiguo, stationed in Peixian County, the army scattered, and 'put down the rebellion' throughout Peixian County.

The aristocratic families of Pei State had no time to escape, and many people were trapped in the city and escorted to Pei County.

Dong Zhuo did not start killing, but instead posted notices to calm the people everywhere.

When ordinary people were a little more stable, hundreds of people stood tremblingly in the backyard of Pei County.

These are people from aristocratic families who have been arrested, one by one you look at me, I look at you, looking at the door in fear.

After an unknown amount of time, Dong Zhuo, dressed in ordinary clothes, walked out with a big belly and a generous face, smiling.

"Mr. Dong!"

Immediately, someone shouted loudly: "Your Majesty did not follow the thief, but you are loyal to His Majesty and the great man. Please learn from Dong Gongming!"

The others were also flustered, how could they calm down, they shouted in a hurry.

"The lower official once reported a letter to the imperial court, and there is a letter to prove it. Please Dong Gong to check it out!"

"Taiwei, Taiwei, Xiaguan, etc. are the Shanyang Han family who took refuge here and have nothing to do with the rebels. Please check it out!"

"The lower officials have donated money to the imperial court, and they have also resisted Yuan Shu's rebels. The imperial court has a commendation order here..."

"The next official is a Xunshi from Yingchuan, and he is in the same family as Xun Shangshu of the imperial court, and he will never rebel. Please raise your hand high..."

A group of people presented the facts and reasoned, and they were all wronged.

The smile on Dong Zhuo's face remained undiminished, and when they stopped for a while, he smiled and said, "This old man has a list of traitors attached to the bandits, can you all have a look?"

Almost everyone's expressions changed suddenly, their eyes were terrified, and no one dared to speak.

Jia Xu watched coldly from the sidelines, disdainful in his heart, these people, well-dressed, with snakes and mouse ends, seemed respectful, but in fact they were despicable.

Dong Zhuo glanced at the crowd, his smile remained unchanged, and he said: "This list of my lord has no real evidence. I called you here to ask you to donate money to help me, so that I can rebel."

Everyone was shocked in their hearts, and I don't know how many people quietly shrank their heads, trying to hide in the crowd.

Dong Zhuo's eyes turned cold, and he raised his head.

In the silence, Niu Fu pulled out more than 20 people from behind.

"Dong Gong, Dong Gong, please forgive me, I am willing to give money, I am willing to atone for my crime!"

"Dong Gong, Dong Gong, I was forced, I was loyal to the court..."

"Dong Zhuo! You can't kill me. My Liu family has been a scholar for generations, and there is no one in the court!"

"You old thief Dong Zhuo! If you kill me today, tomorrow someone will tear you to pieces!"

These people struggled desperately, shouting.

Under the watchful eyes of the more than 100 people, these people were pushed to kneel on the ground, and the soldiers behind them hacked away without saying a word.

In the blink of an eye, the corpses of more than 20 people were separated, heads rolled, and blood flowed horizontally.

Several heads rolled to more than 100 people, their faces turned pale and they backed away in horror.

More than 20 fresh lives who were screaming just now, died in a blink of an eye.

Hundreds of people were silent, not daring to breathe, staring at the corpses with fear in their eyes, trembling.

Dong Zhuo was condescending, his eyes were cold, and the smile on his face remained undiminished. After they had digested it for a while, he said with a smile: "What do you think about the matter of subsidizing wages and suppressing bandits?"

The surviving people stared at Dong Zhuo's smile and felt extremely vicious. The cold air rose from the bottom of their hearts, penetrated into the bone marrow, and spread all over their bodies.

The person in front, under Jia Xu's gaze, raised his hand tremblingly and said, "Eunuch Dong Dong, I am willing to donate 500 million yuan and [-] shi for food..."

Jia Xu looked at him and said indifferently: "He County Chancellor, the He family is a big family in Peiguo, does this detract from our status?"

The man trembled, and hurriedly said: "Wish to help, I donate 5000 million, [-] shi..."

Dong Zhuo nodded in satisfaction, and turned to the one next to him with a smile.

"Wish to donate, I will donate 6000 million, [-] shi..."

Dong Zhuo smiled and looked at the others.

"I donate 4000 million, [-] shi..."

"I donate 7000 million yuan, and the grain is [-] shi..."

"Wish to help, I donate 8000 million yuan, three thousand stones for food..."

Under Dong Zhuo's gaze, amidst the smell of blood, no one dared to resist and reported the amounts one by one.

Say one thing, and Niu Fu will be taken away, and soldiers will be sent to fetch it.

In a blink of an eye, more than 100 people all left, and none of them had the backbone to protest.

Dong Zhuo was in a good mood, he just made a simple calculation, and laughed with Jia Xu: "It's a good idea of ​​Wenhe! In this way, I won't have to worry about money or food anymore!"

Jia Xu remained motionless, looked to the south, and said, "Dong Gong, Yuan Shu should be chasing after him."

Dong Zhuo laughed loudly, and said: "I have [-] elite soldiers, Wen He to help me, and Niu Fu, Zhang Ji, Hua Xiong, Guo Si and other powerful generals, why should I be afraid of little Yuan Shu?"
