Three Kingdoms: Warriors Lu Bu, You Can Become Stronger By Killing Enemies
Chapter [28] Li Ru's Calculation (Asking For Flowers And Collecting)
"Wen Li means...moving the capital to Chang'an?" Dong Zhuo asked tentatively.
"Exactly." Li Ru stroked his beard and said, "Guanzhong has the strength of Weihan, and its geographical advantage is far better than that of Hulao Pass, making it easier to defend and harder to attack."
"Xiangguo can move the imperial court and the people of Luoyang to Chang'an."
"And Xiangguo's foundation is in Xiliang. Compared with Luoyang, Chang'an is very close to Liangzhou."
Dong Zhuo couldn't help but nodded, and said: "Wen Li's words are reasonable, but relocation is a big deal, and there are hundreds of officials and people who need to be taken away together, so the speed must not be fast."
"If the 18th Route rebels take the opportunity to chase us, how should we deal with it?"
If the population of Luoyang is moved to Chang'an, the migration team must be no less than one million people, and the migration speed will definitely be extremely slow.
Once being overtaken by the army of the Eighteenth Route princes, they must either abandon the people and leave, or they will definitely be overtaken.
But if the people are abandoned and there are not enough people to go to Guanzhong, the productivity will definitely be insufficient, and it will not be possible to feed enough troops.
"Xiangguo has an invincible general, so why worry?" Li Ru said with a smile, "We can let Lu Bu lead the Bingzhou army to end the rear."
Dong Zhuo's eyes lit up when he heard the words, and he understood Li Ru's intentions.
First, Lu Bu's bravery needless to say, Dong Zhuo can rest assured after leaving Lu Bu constantly.
Second, the Bingzhou Army has always been unable to lose its tail, which is Dong Zhuo's worry.
Letting Lu Bu lead the Bingzhou Army to stay behind will not only buy time to move the capital, but also weaken the Bingzhou Army and the eighteenth princes at the same time.
"Wonderful!" Dong Zhuo couldn't help clapping his hands and applauded: "Let the Bingzhou Army and the 18th Route rebels lose both, and the Xiliang army can be preserved. This is really a multi-purpose move!"
"However, there are not many Bingzhou troops, what if they can't stop them?" Dong Zhuo looked worried again.
The prerequisite for weakening the Bingzhou Army is to ensure the smooth retreat of large troops.
If Hulao Pass was lost just for the sake of scheming Lu Bu, it would be a small loss.
Therefore, it is the most appropriate plan to weaken the Bingzhou Army as much as possible while ensuring that it can be defended.
"Xiangguo, if only Lu Bu and the Bingzhou Army are left alone, it's a bit too obvious, and Lu Bu probably won't agree."
"Even if the promise is made, Lu Bu may not make any effort, pretending to be defeated and preserving his strength."
"Therefore, according to my humble opinion, in addition to the Bingzhou army, Xiangguo left a part of the Xiliang army, so Lu Bu can't say anything."
Li Ru talked eloquently, while Dong Zhuo nodded repeatedly.
"Also, Xiangguo, don't think too highly of the eighteen princes."
"Oh?" Dong Zhuo asked, "Why? These princes are very troublesome."
These days, Dong Zhuo has also dispatched a large army many times to attack the camps of the coalition forces of the princes, but each time they met with strong resistance, and the Xiliang army could only return without success.
"Xiangguo, the princes of the 18th Route are now at a disadvantage. In order to protect themselves, they naturally twisted together."
"But once we retreat and the eighteenth princes have the upper hand, can we still be united?"
"It's okay to have a snake without a head, but it's also okay to have too many snake heads."
"A boa constrictor has eighteen heads. No matter how powerful the boa constrictor is, it will be difficult to display one out of ten of them."
Li Ru is indeed a high-quality counselor, and he can clearly see the essence of the Eighteenth Route princes.
"Our family understands." Dong Zhuo nodded his head heavily, "Send the order, the army is ready to teach."
"Here." Li Ru took the order and left.
Soon, Lu Bu, who was in the Bingzhou military camp, received the news.
After listening to the order conveyed by the messenger, Lu Bu frowned and waved his hands, telling the messenger to retreat.
"Your Majesty, you can't agree to this matter." After the messenger left, Zhang Liao at the side immediately spoke.
Without Zhang Liao's reminder, Lu Bu knew what Dong Zhuo was planning.
After letting himself die, Dong Zhuo went to Chang'an safely, and let himself and the princes fight recklessly by the way, which played the role of weakening the Bingzhou Army and the princes' coalition army.
"The old thief has sinister intentions. He wants us to die and weaken the strength of our state army." Lu Bu said directly.
Lu Bu's remarks were very dangerous, but Zhang Liao and Gao Shun were both fighting against each other, and they didn't feel anything wrong.
Dong Zhuo asked them to stay and die. To put it bluntly, he just asked the Bingzhou people to stay and die.
"However, we have to obey orders." Lu Bu was very depressed.
Lu Bu had considered disobedience and disobedience, but Dong Zhuo also sent another Xiliang army to stay behind.
After all, in name, Lu Bu is Dong Zhuo's subordinate.
Dong Xiangguo issued a military order, so as a subordinate, there is only one way to obey.
"Your Majesty, can we just jump into the fire pit?" Zhang Liao was rather unwilling.
"It's not a dead end." Lu Bu said slowly, "We have 15,000 people, and the old thief left 5,000 people, a total of 20,000 troops. Relying on Hulao Pass, it is enough to last for a while."
For marching battles, Lu Bu is very good at it. Although he is a time traveler, he has experienced Lu Bu's life in his dream, and he also has a deep understanding of warfare.
But persistence is persistence, but there will definitely be a huge loss, which obviously does not conform to Lu Bu's idea of preserving his strength.
But the matter has come to this point, Dong Zhuo has already issued an order, if he resolutely avoids the battle, he will undoubtedly turn against Dong Zhuo directly, and Lu Bu is not yet ready to kill his father.
Although Lu Bu has 15,000 troops under his command, there are more Xiliang troops in Hulao Pass, and it would be even more unfavorable for Lu Bu to turn his face directly.
"Let's take one step at a time." Lu Bu let out a long breath.
There is no good solution for the time being, and Lu Bu feels that his head is starting to heat up, which is a precursor to the use of intelligence beyond the class, and Lu Bu immediately stops thinking.
Afterwards, Dong Zhuo withdrew from Hulao Pass with a large force, and left behind five thousand Xiliang troops and a general who commanded the troops. The one who remained was Xu Rong.
He also appointed Lu Bu and Xu Rong as chief generals at the same time. This move was obviously worried about handing over the Xiliang Army to Lu Bu, fearing that Lu would not let the Xiliang Army go to death.
Dong Zhuo's Xiliang army was all cavalry, and they withdrew directly from Hulaoguan. Even after seeing it, the allied forces of the princes were powerless and unable to pursue them.
On the side of the Eighteenth Route princes, even weapons and armor cannot be equipped as standard equipment, let alone cavalry, which is such a precious weapon, there is no such thing at all.
The Eighteenth Route princes can still piece together all the horses under their command to form a cavalry, but the number will not be too many.
And this patchwork of cavalry is definitely no match for the Xiliang Iron Cavalry.
What's more, war horses are the darlings of the princes, and it is impossible to piece together cavalry. Even if they are pieced together, who will be the leader of the army?
The princes are worried that other people will be in charge, so it is impossible for this kind of thing to happen.
"There are no two suns in the sky, there are no two masters in the people, and there are no two commanders in the army!" Zhang Liao said angrily, "It is the biggest taboo in the army to order people out of the second sect!"
Now there are two commanders at Hulao Pass, who should the soldiers below listen to?
Lu Bu said to go east, and Xu Rong said to go west. Before the war started, the internal divisions were divided first, which is definitely a taboo for military strategists.
"Wen Yuan's words are reasonable." Lu Bu agreed with this very much, "Come here, go and call Xu Rong here."
Lu Bu made up his mind that he must take command of the army in his hands.
Now that Dong Zhuo is gone, the boss of Hulaoguan must be himself, and he must take the initiative.
Xu Rong will come over in a while, if he doesn't like it, Lu doesn't mind giving him a halberd.
This is the simplest and most brutal way, and it is also the fastest way to seize military power.
However, as soon as Lu Bu's order was issued, before his own soldiers could deliver the order, the halberd bearer from outside came in first.
"Report!"
"My lord, general Xu Rong is asking to see you."
