After hearing Li Rudao's words, Hu Zhen thought for a moment and said: "Liu Bei has treated me well over the years. If it weren't for him, I wouldn't be alive today. If I betrayed him like this, I would have a bad conscience!"
The Battle of Sili that year was extremely tragic. After Dong Zhuo was assassinated, most of the generals of the Xiliang Army died in the war. If Hu Zhen had not been protected by Liu Bei these years, she would have died long ago.
So when it came to dealing with people like Wang Yun, Hu Zhen didn't hesitate. He had wanted to kill Wang Yun and the others for a long time, but now he really couldn't do it if he wanted to betray Liu Bei.
When Li Ru heard this, he said angrily: "Do you still want to avenge the Prime Minister? If you want to avenge, Liu Bei is our biggest obstacle. If we don't kill Liu Bei, how will we kill Wang Yun and Yang Biao who are hiding behind Liu Bei?
Lu Bu et al.
Do you still want to live in fear and uneasiness? I'm afraid Yang Biao and the others have attacked you a lot in recent years. Liu Bei can protect you for a while, but how can he protect you for life? And now you only remember Liu Bei's kindness to you.
You have forgotten the decades of kindness that our country has shown you!"
At this time, Zhang Ji also persuaded: "We and Yang Biao can only survive. We want to seek revenge from them, and Liu Bei is the obstacle that must be solved! We are doing this now just to protect ourselves. The positions of the two sides are different.
It's not a betrayal, and you don't have to feel sorry for Liu Bei! Everyone is just trying to survive, there's no point in saying who is sorry to whom."
"And if we really want to say it's a betrayal, then it was Yang Biao and the others who betrayed the Prime Minister first. Now it's justifiable for us to take revenge. What's the point of being embarrassed!"
"And you can only be a thief for a thousand days, and there is no one who can guard against a thief for a thousand days. With Yang Biao and Lu Bu's hatred towards us, as long as they seize the opportunity, they will definitely let us die without a burial place!"
Zhang Ji's life in Jingzhou has not been very good these years. All the senior officials of the Xiangyang court are his enemies. Lu Bu and other Bingzhou army generals who betrayed Dong Zhuo regard them as enemies. With so many enemies around, how can he?
May be doing well.
Even though Liu Bei was protecting them, Zhang Jiduo was assassinated many times. The army in his hands was gradually weakened by Wang Yun and others with the help of the imperial power. The Xiliang cavalry in his hands were all destroyed by the imperial court through the Battle of the Central Plains.
annex.
Seeing that his strength was getting weaker and weaker, Zhang Ji knew that when his strength was weakened to the point where it was difficult to resist, that would be when Yang Biao and the others would take action against him.
"The Point Guard Is Here"
It was Yang Biao's actions that made Zhang Ji know that they would never let him go. This was why he took the risk to contact Li Ru, because he knew that among the princes in the world, only Lei Gong could accommodate them like Xiliang.
general.
Hu Zhen didn't know what to do for a while. Liu Bei had saved his life, but Dong Zhuo had also promoted him for decades.
And he knew that what Zhang Ji said was correct. Although he had Liu Bei's protection in these years, everyone in the imperial court was his enemy. People like Yang Biao clearly remembered how they faced life and death when they were in Chang'an City, and even more so.
He almost died in the hands of these generals of the Xiliang Army. Yang Biao hated Dong Zhuo's fishery like them to the bone. He suppressed them at the court, separated their soldiers locally, and even used assassination methods to deal with them.
It can be said that Hu Zhen's life has not been satisfactory these years.
Li Ru found that Hu Zhen was still hesitating and said angrily: "Isn't the kindness I have shown you over the past few decades inferior to that of Liu Bei in the past few years? I think you are really confused. You can't even tell right from wrong. In Jingzhou
How many more years can you live? The world is in Hebei now. If you don’t take this opportunity to jump out of this shabby boat in Jingzhou, why are you still hesitating here?"
Hu Zhen said: "Can't we spare Liu Bei's life? How will the world view me, Hu Zhen, for such a secretly rebellious thing?"
Li Rudao: "This is a fight for world hegemony. You think it's a joke. I tell you, if we can kill Liu Bei on the battlefield, the entire army is willing to sacrifice the lives of 10,000 soldiers. If you really think it is difficult for you to face Liu Bei,
, then lead your men to attack Yuan Tan’s soldiers, and Liu Bei will let the army from Hebei come and kill them!"
Hu Zhen still felt embarrassed. At this time, Zhang Ji took over and said: "That's it, during the battle, I will lead the soldiers of the Xiliang Army to attack Yuan Tan's army. This can be regarded as worthy of Liu Bei's protection for us during this period.
!”
Hu Zhen stopped talking, which was regarded as acquiescence!
Zhang Ji continued: "Liu Bei is also aware of his danger. He plans to severely damage Huanglong's army before leaving Yingchuan County. You must be prepared yourself and don't fall into the battlefield. Liu Bei still has two skills in the battle.
Brushes!"
Li Ru smiled and said: "Although Liu Bei's idea is good, there is no possibility of implementation at all. Da Gan's army recruits all real elites, and half of Liu Bei's army is just a mob. Now that Da Gan's combat effectiveness is strong, Liu Bei can't do anything at all.
Huanglong's army could not be severely damaged.
However, Liu Bei's battlefield acumen is quite high. If he stays in Yingchuan County for a few more days, his retreat will be cut off by Yang Feng. Yang Feng's 50,000 troops have already attacked Nanyang County, and at most 5
We can attack Kruyang City in the sky and cut off Liu Bei's retreat, and then he won't be able to leave even if he wants to."
"But now he is also a caged bird struggling to his death. After Luoyang City was captured, more than 300,000 troops from Hebei Province have rushed to Yuzhou. With the army in Liu Bei's hands now, there is no way he can resist the attack of the Daqian Army. He is now
There are only options between small defeat and total defeat.”
Then Li Ru saw the two men and said: "No matter what choice you make, Liu Bei will definitely lose this battle, but if you revolt on the battlefield, you can reduce the casualties of the large army. And Lei Gong attaches most importance to the casualties of the soldiers, reducing the casualties of the large army."
The casualties suffered by the Qian Army are the greatest military merits you have achieved. If you have achieved military merit on the battlefield, you can legitimately join the Qian Army, and then you can continue to lead the army in battles."
"Don't underestimate this. Lei Gong rarely recruits foreign troops. Just look at Niu Fu who has joined the Da Gan Army for several years, but he is still a small official and cannot be on the stage! Even if Zhang He sacrifices Chang'an
City, but Lei Gong was willing to give Zhang He and others more than one billion yuan as a reward, and was not willing to accept Zhang He and others as members of the great army. In the end, Zhang He was smart and took the initiative to go to the most remote areas of the Western Regions.
There is an opportunity to join the Daqian Army, but it is just an opportunity now, and the government has not yet made a decision whether to accept Zhang He and the others."
When Li Ru said this, Zhang Ji also felt lucky. Without Li Ru to help them connect, even if they wanted to seek refuge with Lei Gong, they would not be able to find a way.
