The Liaodong Iron Cavalry of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 248 Dong Zhuo's Emperor's Dream
When the news of the infighting among the coalition forces reached Chang'an, Dong Zhuo laughed wildly for a while.Although I don't know the specific reason, as long as the coalition forces internal friction, their safety factor will increase.

"Wenyou, is it your plan to fight internally with the coalition forces?" The excited Dong Zhuo thought it was Li Ru's plan to make the coalition forces fight outside Luoyang city.

Li Ru shook his head first, and then said: "Father-in-law, this plan must have come from Huo Yu!"

"Oh? Why?" Dong Zhuo asked in surprise.

"Intuition!" Li Ru said cleanly.

"Hahaha! As long as the Kwantung princes don't come to make trouble! Oh yes, His Majesty has issued an imperial edict to confer Huo Yu as Shepherd of Youzhou, Yuan Shao as Shepherd of Jizhou, Cao Cao as Governor of Yanzhou!" Dong Zhuo stroked his chubby belly. said with a smile.

This strategy was offered by Li Ru, and its purpose was to divide and disintegrate the alliance of the Guandong princes, but now it seems that this strategy just added fuel to the fire!
"Wen You, there is an important matter in our family that needs you to do it yourself!" Dong Zhuo suddenly changed the subject, and Li Ru's heart skipped a beat. Could it be that the recent rumors are true.

"Father-in-law, don't worry, you should do your best! I don't know what father-in-law said?" Although he was a little worried in his heart, he couldn't say it out of his mouth. No one could bear to disturb Dong Zhuo's interest.

"Since arriving in Chang'an, His Majesty has occupied our family's bedroom. After thinking about it, we can't live with His Majesty all day, so our family came up with a solution!"

Speaking of this, Dong Zhuo looked excited, but Li Ru had already guessed that the rumors were about to become a reality.But as long as you don't make the sky angry and people complain, and don't leave any tongues for those Kanto princes, it's fine.

Li Ru clearly couldn't understand Dong Zhuo's character. In this state, if Dong Zhuo heard the word "no", thinking about the consequences would make him shudder.In fact, Li Ru also thinks that Dong Zhuo can't be regarded as a wise master. Although he often adopts his own suggestions on major issues, if Dong Zhuo hadn't been rescued by Dong Zhuo when he was desperate and married his daughter, Li Ru would not have had status today.

Therefore, Li Ru still assists with all his heart and soul, and the grace of saving life should be repaid by the spring!So in front of the excited Dong Zhuo, Li Ru acted like a docile kitten.

"Our family is going to gather all the money and food in Guanzhong and store it in one city. In this way, even if the princes of the Eighteenth Route break through all the passes, our family can spend a long time with the princes of the Guandong as long as we hold this city!" Dong Zhuo was very excited. words.

"This" Li Ru was completely stunned after hearing Dong Zhuo's words. Such an approach would inevitably cause great resentment among the people in Guanzhong.Originally, Dong Zhuo thought that Dong Zhuo was going to build a palace, but in the end he wanted to build a city for himself, but what is the difference between this city and the palace after it is built!

"Our family decided to build a new city west of Chang'an, named Meiwu! As you said before, the weather, location, people and our family are the only two. Once the time is right." At this time, Dong Zhuo finally expressed his final scheming .

Thinking of the throne that can decide the world with one word, Dong Zhuo laughed loudly, his madness was not concealed.

Li Ru, who was confused in his heart, no longer knew how to persuade him!The previous analysis was just to keep Dong Zhuo from losing confidence. If he really develops according to his own plan, it won't be too late to reach the top of the world.Now Dong Zhuo's thinking has completely disrupted his plan.

According to what Dong Zhuo just said, the new construction of Meiwu must be a huge siege, and it is necessary to waste people and money. In this way, people and harmony will be lost, but Li Ru doesn't know how to speak at this moment.With a sigh in his mouth, Li Ru understood that Dong Zhuo, who had fallen into the emperor's mind at this time, was undoubtedly seeking his own death.

After many days of non-stop driving around the clock, Cao Cao and his party finally returned to Chenliu.Looking at the city wall in front of him, and seeing the soldiers entering Chenliu in groups, Cao Cao finally breathed a sigh of relief, he could finally let go of his vigilant heart.Cao Cao already knew about the scuffle between the allied forces of the princes outside Luoyang City, and no one except Huo Yu was capable of doing it.

Therefore, along the way, Cao Cao was always in fear.In his current situation, Huo Yu didn't need to dispatch many troops to destroy it.Suddenly, Cao Cao saw a familiar figure coming out of a carriage. He has been busy on the road recently and completely ignored this person.

"Wen Ruo has been traveling for several days, is it okay?" Cao Cao hurriedly stepped forward and asked with concern.

"Your Majesty, I'm worrying too much, but I can still persist in such a march." Xun Yu replied with a smile.

Xun Yu and Xun Wenruo, known as "Wang Zuo's talent" by the world, devoted themselves to the Han Dynasty.Cao Cao came to vote immediately after issuing the edict, but at this moment he didn't know that the Cao Cao in front of him was no longer the Cao Cao when he issued the edict.

Cao Cao nodded and said nothing. It goes without saying that Xun Yu is capable, but this person is too loyal to the Han family. Cao Cao didn't know how to persuade him for a while, so he could only take one step at a time!

Cao Cao didn't say anything more, but Xun Yu said with a smile: "This time, the allied forces of the Kwantung princes chased Dong Zhuo and fled westward in embarrassment. Although the lord pursued alone and returned in defeat, the people in the world must only know that the lord did not know Yuan Shao. , the lord's name is probably already spread all over the world."

"A little fame is nothing! This round of appealing to the board of directors made Cao know that strength is the most important thing, and a powerful faction like Xiang Huo Yu is the most terrifying enemy! However, only those who have fame and reputation in the world will enter Cao Cao's hands." Dao Cao Said with a smile, this is definitely an expression of self-confidence.

Xun Yu was taken aback when he heard the words, he didn't expect Cao Cao to be so confident.After thinking about it carefully, Xun Yu couldn't help admiring that in such a chaotic world, strength is indeed the most important thing. It's a pity that Guo Jia, and Xun You have already been poached by Huo Yu, otherwise he would have recommended one or two.

"My lord is a great talent, and Yu is not as good as him!" Xun Yu bowed to Cao Cao.

When Cao Cao and Xun Yu were talking, Huo Yu, who had left first, had already received the accurate information from the Anyu Guard.Guo Jia, who was most worried, had already joined Guan Yu. In this way, the purpose of this trip to discuss Dong was fully achieved.

Not only gained fame, but also caused further internal friction among the princes of the Kanto, especially Yuan Shao and Han Fu.According to the memories of Huo Yu's later generations, Dong Zhuo accepted Li Ru's proposal after returning to Chang'an, and wantonly enfeoffed the princes of the Guandong, but disrupted the order of their regions, which had achieved the effect of sowing discord.

Thinking about the scheming I asked Lu Bu to convey, I believe Li Ru can understand.Now I need to return to Youzhou as soon as possible to prepare. Once the edict arrives, I need to control the whole territory of Youzhou in a short time, so as to recuperate and lay a solid foundation for the next plan.

But there is still one troublesome thing to solve, and that is the Wannian Princess Liu Ying.This is really a hot potato, and one effort that can't handle oneself will come to naught!
