Chapter 389
Li Ru's words made Dong Zhuo feel unwilling and his face was gloomy, but although he felt uncomfortable, he also knew that what this guy said might not be untrue!
However, all these food and grass have been left now. If he is asked to give up, Dong Zhuo will definitely be reluctant. After all, although they did not spend their own money to get them, these things are real. If they discard them, they will have to spend their own money in the future. ?
Taking a deep breath, a stern look flashed across Dong Zhuo's face: "According to what you're saying, we can't escape this sneak attack no matter what?"
If this is the case, then it's a fart to talk about now, there is no need to say anything, the soldiers will block the water and cover it up!
Li Ru could hear that Dong Zhuo was very unhappy at the moment. If this situation continues, it is impossible to predict what will happen afterwards. After all, Dong Zhuo's character is right there, he is a lunatic!
But fortunately, after a while of sulking, Dong Zhuo actually laughed. He told Li Ru not to think too much. Although his words made him very angry this time, what he said made sense. Since it is a reasonable thing, precautions must be taken. .
In the past, Dong Zhuo would definitely not be like this. The reason why he wants to do this today is because he has indeed seen the horror of Li Ye, and he is an unpredictable person.
I have encountered many enemies in my life, but those who can compare with Li Ye are really very few, even...never!
Compared to Zhao Kuangyin, he was more worried about Li Ye's sneak attack.
Li Ru's heart moved when he heard the words. He didn't expect Dong Zhuo to be so straightforward, so he obeyed his own words. Obviously, this guy was probably afraid.
After hesitating for a while, Dong Zhuo told Li Ru to prepare immediately and follow the strategy he proposed before, but there was one more thing, not just watering on it, but also preparing some water jars and placing them next to these things. If the enemy is really attacking and burn it with fire, you can immediately use the water altar to put out the fire.
Li Ru nodded, and hurriedly went to prepare. On the other side, Zhao Kuangyin and others had withdrawn from Dong Zhuo's sight range, and they could finally breathe a sigh of relief.
Zhao Kuangyin and the generals under him were able to persevere on this journey. The only one who couldn't bear it was his younger brother Zhao Kuangyi. He is a reader.
Even though he could lift a knife and mount a horse, but compared with those generals, he was not even a star and a half behind.
How can an older brother not feel sorry for his younger brother?
Normally, Zhao Kuangyin would have to let his younger brother rest, but today he didn't. Although he knew Zhao Kuangyi was exhausted, he still had to make him work harder.
Right now there is a big thing waiting for him to do.
Contact Li Ye!
Compared to Zhao Pu, Zhao Kuangyin felt that it was better to let his younger brother go this time. After all, Zhao Kuangyi was also a smart man, even stronger than Zhao Pu in terms of strategy, and the matter was of great importance. intimate.
"You have to remember that the negotiation with Li Ye this time is related to the safety of our entire army, so you have to be careful, understand?"
Seeing his serious face, Zhao Kuangyi didn't say anything, just nodded heavily.
Brother, I'll take care of things, don't worry!
Zhao Kuangyin chuckled, brother needn't say so much.
When Li Ye saw Zhao Kuangyi, he knew that they had done everything well, and now was the time to defeat Dong Zhuojun.
But before that, he still has something to say. Although Zhao Kuangyin took the initiative to come to the door this time, what he took a fancy to was not his brother Zheng En who was caught by him, but his own strength.
Zhao Kuangyin is also a hero in history, and he is far more ruthless than ordinary people in the pursuit of reality.
Li Ye knew it well, not to mention Zhao Kuangyi, who created the strange case of candle shadow and ax sound through the ages?
Staring at the person in front of him, Li Ye's gaze became a little more fierce: "Zhao Kuangyi, do you know why your brother asked you to come here?"
Hearing this, Zhao Kuangyi frowned at that time, thinking secretly in his heart that he could guess the purpose of Zhao Kuangyin's sending him this time. After all, his trust in Zhao Pu is limited.
But can you say these words?
Zhao Kuangyi took a deep breath, and hurriedly said, "Actually, I don't know. I just think that as a younger brother, the elder brother is like a father. I want to listen to what he says."
This is so interesting!
The story of the shadow of the candle and the sound of the ax in the book inevitably appeared before Li Ye's eyes, it was really vivid, why didn't you think that your brother was your own father at that time?
Did you treat your father like that?
His eyes dimmed, and Li Ye threw a sentence to him. He told Zhao Kuangyi that it is best to put himself in the right position, including his elder brother who is like a father. But both should be more sincere with each other.
Zhao Kuangyi was stunned. He didn't understand what this sincerity meant. Now they had completely followed Li Ye's request and gave so much food and grass to that old bastard Dong Zhuo for nothing. Could it be that this was not sincere enough?
Li Ye smiled. It is enough to say one thing with sincerity, but can others completely believe in him and accept him with just one thing of sincerity?
Obviously this is impossible.
Those who have second thoughts in their hearts are all delusional.
Hearing this, Zhao Kuangyi froze in place, especially when he saw Li Ye's back turning away, he was a little at a loss. It was clear that he only said half a sentence, why did he turn around and leave?
Is it because they didn't speak well enough, or did they not have the sincerity to cooperate at all?
In a daze, Zhao Kuangyi suddenly realized that he might have thought wrong, the relationship between them was not cooperation at all, but submission!
The reason why Li Ye treated him like this today is because he saw the uneasiness in this person's heart. Zhao Kuangyi is by no means a peaceful master. If he was really peaceful, he would definitely not be like the one just now. Although he lowered his head, But the eyes full of provocation was uncontrollable.
Now that Zhao Kuangyi has figured it out, he also understands how he should do things.
Now that they have given the food and grass to Dong Zhuo, the person who needs to tie the bell to untie the bell is [-]% afraid that Li Ye's intention is to hope that they can attack Dong Zhuo.
Is this too risky?
If Zheng En was still there, he might be able to defeat Lu Bu, but now that Zheng En has become his prisoner, Gao Huaide alone may not be able to do it.
Could it be that he wants me to ask him for Zheng En?
The speculation in his heart was immediately put into action by Zhao Kuangyi, because he knew that if some things were not stated clearly, the situation might be quite troublesome.
After taking a deep breath, Zhao Kuangyi hurriedly took two steps forward and called out to Li Ye.
"Please wait!"
At this moment, his humility was shown from the inside out, and there was no trace of provocation or shame on his face. Li Ye turned around to see a different smile on the corner of his mouth, and his eyes also changed. Very ambiguous.
He asked Zhao Kuangyi what was the purpose of calling him, and Zhao Kuangyi hurriedly explained everything he had learned in a concise and concise manner.
Zhao Kuangyi said that he could personally lead people to attack Dong Zhuo and ignite all the food and grass left in their hands to create opportunities for Li Ye's side.
If they only use their strength, they will definitely not be able to defeat Dong Zhuo, at least that Lu Bu is a headache, but if they can add the strength of Li Ye's side, then the situation will be different.
Two against one, and if one strong and one weak cooperate to attack a medium-strength enemy, if they can't be sure, then they are really all useless.
This time Zhao Kuangyi made the right bet, and under his worried gaze, Li Ye finally nodded.
In an instant, Zhao Kuangyi was relieved, as if a big rock had been removed from his heart, his whole body became extremely relaxed.
However, there was only a moment of relaxation, and Li Ye still had demands on him. He declared that after Zhao Kuangyin's actions this time, Xue Rengui would lead the army to cooperate, but the prerequisite was that Zhao Kuangyin's side must show an attitude.
Depending on their attitude, Xue Rengui and Yuan Chonghuan will take corresponding actions. Whether they can take down Dong Zhuo in one fell swoop and defeat his power depends on them.
Chapter 390
What is an attitude?
Zhao Kuangyin had his own decision in his heart, but in the end, don't look at him bowing down to send Li Ye away now, but in fact he did a rather embarrassing thing because he usurped power today!
Although he and the old black man Zhao Kuangyin are brothers, the difference between the two is also very big. In contrast, the leader now is Zhao Kuangyin. The word "power" is taken very seriously.
In his eyes, no one can challenge his authority, and he can humble himself to the outside world, or even betray himself, just to continue to expand his power and live better.
But if it's inside...
There were more than one person who provoked him before, but no matter who it was, the final result was quite dismal.
Those people didn't know where they went in the end, but Zhao Kuangyi, who was an insider, knew it very well.
Most of those people were secretly taken away by his brother, and he was the one who carried out all this!
But today, he also acted to usurp power in order to adapt to the situation. This time, if his elder brother can hold his hands high, it will be nothing. Save!
The head is a good thing, and he doesn't want to move his head just because of this.
Zhao Kuangyi knew very well that if his elder brother refused to raise his hand this time, he would be the one to die!
Don't look at it as a real brother, but even a real brother has to settle accounts clearly!
Long before starting the army, Zhao Kuangyin told him more than once that if he became the elder brother and became the master, then the friendship between their brothers would not change, but other things besides friendship would not necessarily be the same. up.
These words were stabbed in Zhao Kuangyi's heart like a knife, so much so that at that time he thought about whether he should give up his life in order to fulfill his eldest brother's career.
But after thinking about it, he felt that his brother still needed his help!
Besides, he himself didn't want to die, especially in this turbulent era. Although he didn't know if he could rise to become a prince like his brother, he was willing to give it a try.
After leaving Li Ye's side, Zhao Kuangyi was full of worries, he didn't know how to face his brother.
Returning to the barracks in a trance, Zhao Kuangyin brought Gao Huaide and others eagerly to greet him: "How is it? What did Li Ye say?"
Zhao Kuangyi took a deep breath as if he wanted to explain something, but when he looked up and saw Zhao Kuangyin's gloomy face and determined gaze, he finally chose to remain silent, as if now was not the time.
"Brother!"
Suppressing all the uneasiness in his heart, Zhao Kuangyi told the whole story of what Li Ye had said, without any deletion or modification of every word.
Hearing this, Zhao Kuangyin was at a loss for what to do. He could hear the meaning behind Li Ye's words, and obviously hoped that they would fight.
Let them attack Dong Zhuo!
But is it really going to be done?
Because he had cooperated with Dong Zhuo before, he was very clear about the power gap between the enemy and us. Even if Li Ye had promised to let Xue Rengui and others come forward to help and cooperate in the battle, their current task was just to act as a trigger.
But who knows if Li Ye will keep his word?
What if he breaks his promise?And even if he didn't break his promise, what would happen if Xue Rengui and Yuan Chonghuan came late, or were not timely enough or smart enough during the battle between the two armies?
Zhao Kuangyin seemed to have the scene of the subsequent battle in front of his eyes, and his eyes inevitably became much more stern when he saw this scene.
"All right."
Taking a deep breath, Zhao Kuangyin knew that it was time to make a decision. If he continued to delay, he might not only be easily seen through by Dong Zhuo and others, but also offend Li Ye.
As the saying goes, when you are in danger, you need to be bold!
When it's time to risk your life, use all your courage to fight!
According to Zhao Kuangyin's arrangement, all his troops immediately entered a state of combat readiness. This time, because of the gap in strength between the enemy and ourselves, Zhao Kuangyin believed that large-scale corps operations could not be adopted.
According to their current strength, if they hedge against Dong Zhuo, they will suffer a big loss.
Not to mention that Lu Bu, even Li Jue, Guo Si, etc., are definitely not easy to deal with, so this time he will personally lead the troops, and attack from the left and right wings of Dong Zhuo's army in the form of cavalry raids, using their bows and crossbows, etc. and set fire to the camp.
After success, they immediately left the battle, and then sought help from Li Ye's side; if they failed, or Xue Rengui and Yuan Chonghuan didn't come at all, then he had no choice but to go to all the soldiers under his command to have a real fight with Dong Zhuojun. Let's do it.
