() Dong Zhuo overturned four tables one after another before he could calm down his anger. "Jia Rong, you kid, bullied me too much. I will repay you in the future." Dong Zhuo said bitterly.
"My lord, be careful what you say, and be careful that walls have ears." Li Ru said anxiously.
Instead of lowering his voice, Dong Zhuo raised his voice a few decibels and shouted: "Don't forget, I am the captain of the Han Dynasty. He is just a little general of the Wei. I still have the final say. I
To remove him from office is just a matter of words."
Li Ru lowered his head and stopped talking. Dong Zhuo did have the upper hand in the government, but it was also based on the fact that Jia Rong was unwilling to fight for it. If he pushed too hard, Jia Rong would unite the aristocratic families in the city, and the consequences would be unimaginable.
Imagine.
After a long silence, Dong Zhuo regained his original calmness and said: "Wen You, please tell us about the deposed emperor and how to persuade Jia Rong's department to participate in it."
Li Rudao: "My lord's actions today are not a great opportunity. There are more than one or two lurking powers in the aristocratic families in the city. My lord and Jia Rong have a falling out. They are the happiest. As long as my lord and Jia Rong continue to have such quarrels in court."
After a while, the family will mistakenly think that we and Jia Rong are hostile, and the secret forces will gradually surface."
Dong Zhuo said: "Everything is based on literary excellence."
Li Rudao: "I have something to ask my lord for permission to do."
"Say." After venting his anger, Dong Zhuo felt much better, but he did not feel guilty for what he had just done to Li Ru.
"The general sent someone to the Xiliang army to admit their mistake and try to compensate them with as much food, grass and weapons as possible."
Dong Zhuo's anger that had just stopped boiled again, and he pointed at Li Ru and cursed: "Nonsense, what kind of face will our army have in this case? Do you want our army to give way to the Xiliang army when they see it in the future?"
Li Ru was silent. Before he said these words, he was already prepared to be scolded. As Dong Zhuo's army's chief adviser, he had the responsibility to advise Dong Zhuo.
After a long silence, Li Ru took the lead to break the peaceful atmosphere, "My lord, the secret of the Xiliang Army's cavalry has been discovered by a lowly official."
Dong Zhuo was overjoyed when he heard this. He grabbed Li Ru's clothes and said, "Is this true?"
Seeing Li Ru nodding, Dong Zhuo said anxiously: "Say it quickly."
"I got a war horse from the Xiliang Army in my humble position. After careful inspection, I found that it is indeed different from ordinary war horses in many ways."
Xiliang Army's management of war horses is very strict. Li Ru was able to obtain it because of the recent battle between Xiliang Army and Bingzhou Army, which resulted in casualties on each other. It is impossible for Xiliang Army to completely recover the war horses.
"My lord, please take a look." At Li Ru's signal, a soldier brought two things.
"What is this?" Li Ru's words aroused Dong Zhuo's curiosity, and his mood also calmed down a lot.
Li Ru didn't show off, and explained: "This thing is under the saddle of the war horse. With the help of this thing, the cavalry can freely control the war horse and use two-handed weapons easily, and shooting arrows is no problem."
, a soldier with a little better riding skills can become an equestrian master."
Dong Zhuo took the stirrup, observed it carefully, took a deep breath, and said slowly: "This thing is indeed extraordinary. No wonder the Xiliang army is so powerful. What is its name?"
"Stirrups."
Dong Zhuo was overjoyed and said: "The stirrup is indeed appropriate, but what is this thing?"
"This is a horseshoe. The horseshoes of the Xiliang army's war horses are all nailed with this kind of thing. It is said that it can increase the endurance of the war horses."
"These two items are extremely precious. They are secretly equipped on our cavalry and must not be spread out." Dong Zhuo sighed: "I don't know where Jia Rong found so many talented craftsmen." Thinking of all the things in the past, Dong Zhuo
I feel more and more that Jia Rong is not simple and not as honest and honest as he appears on the surface.
Dong Zhuo and Jia Rong were originally good masters and servants. Unexpectedly, as time passed, the two generals became the commanders of an army, and they almost turned against each other because of a trivial matter.
Recruitment orders, crafts workshops, paper mills, schools, these are things that ordinary officials cannot think of or dare to make.
"My Lord, the Xiliang Army still has many secrets, so now is not the time to fall out with Jia Rong. Our army and the Xiliang Army will benefit from joining forces." Li Ru took a deep breath and said, "Dividing will cause two harms."
"You first go to the army and arrange the horseshoes and stirrups properly. I will take care of the rest. I will send Li Su to the Xiliang army to apologize. You can take care of the amount of food and fodder for the horses."
Li Ru bowed and said: "My lord is wise!"
In the battle with the Bingzhou Army, Jia Rong received more than 1,500 war horses, enough food and baggage to last the Xiliang Army for three months, countless weapons, and more than 12,000 Bingzhou Army surrendered.
The Bingzhou Army suddenly became the largest force in the Xiliang Army Group.
The Bingzhou Army was broken up and distributed to various ministries. Some of the former junior generals of the Xiliang Army were promoted to official positions. Three days later, the Xiliang Army will hold a full-army competition, absorbing so much fresh blood. Jia Rong needs to understand these soldiers.
Strength, and then assign duties.
Now the Xiliang Army has 20,000 people, and its military strength is at its peak. It is not inferior to Dong Zhuo. Over time, these new soldiers will be trained to be as elite as the original Xiliang Army, and they will have the support of Xianlian Pavilion.
If you persist, you will not be able to go anywhere in the world.
Jia Rong, who often has an army of hundreds of thousands, never thought that if you don't know how expensive firewood and rice are, the consumption of an army of 20,000 people in a day is not a small amount, let alone hundreds of thousands.
When the news of Jia Rong's defeat of Bingzhou's army spread throughout Luoyang City, the news of his falling out with Dong Zhuo also spread throughout the streets. This matter is not a secret, and you can find out with a little inquiry.
To Dong Zhuo's surprise, the aristocratic families in the city were still peaceful.
A knock on the door sounded.
Jia Rong has already taken a shower and changed his clothes. Jia Rong's favorite thing in the house is casual clothes, "Come in!"
"General, Liu Si is back." Zhang Zhi, who had just come off the battlefield, hurried over to report the news before he had time to change his clothes.
Jia Rong's expression moved and he said: "Quickly pass!"
After a while, Liu Si walked in with thumping footsteps.
Liu Si immediately knelt down in the tunnel and said: "No. 1, No. 38 fortunately fulfilled their orders and completed the mission."
Jia Rong walked closer and helped Liu Si up and said, "Very good, you will stay with me from now on."
Liu Si bowed and said, "Thank you, General!" Being able to follow Jia Rong is what a lone wolf soldier dreams of.
Jia Rong originally planned to recall Liu Si recently, but he did not expect to complete the task. It was an unexpected gain.
"General, this is the Seven-Star Sword." Liu Si took the package he carried with him and took out something from it and said.
Jia Rong's eyelids twitched slightly. The Seven-Star Sword was a famous sword in the Three Kingdoms. Unfortunately, Cao Cao did not appear again after he failed to assassinate Dong Zhuo.
Gently opening the black cloth wrapped around the package, the seven-star sword was revealed in front of Jia Rong.
The seven-star sword is about more than a foot long. The blade is inlaid with seven bright orbs, which are as dazzling as stars, so it is called the seven-star sword. These seven orbs are not ordinary at first glance. He gently strokes the blade. Jia Rong has no doubt that this
The knife is extremely sharp, the blade is as thin as a cicada's wing, and what's even more rare is that there is a blood groove on the blade.
Perhaps because it was stained with too much blood, the blade showed a faint dark red color. It was indeed a famous sword.
Jia Rong couldn't help but praise: "Good knife." This knife is short and suitable for launching unexpected attacks.
Zhang Zhi and Liu Si both bowed and said, "Congratulations to the general for receiving this precious sword!"
Jia Rong smiled and said: "When did you two learn to flatter, Liu Si, it's not easy for you to steal this knife. Credit." But the joy in his heart was still beyond words.
I wonder if Cao Cao would assassinate Dong Zhuo after Situ Wang Yun's seven-star sword was stolen. Without Cao Cao's promotion, would the eighteen princes still attack Dong Zhuo?
Liu Si bowed and said, "Thank you, general. I believe the general has heard of Situ Shuangbi's reputation."
Jia Rong was surprised and said: "Situ Shuangbi, come and see."
"This seven-star sword is the most precious treasure in Wang Yun's house. It is one jade. The other jade is Situ Wang Yun's adopted daughter Diao Chan. She has the appearance of a fish sinking like a wild goose, and the moon is shy of the flowers. Everyone who has seen her is shocked.
People, so Diao Chan is also a treasure in the Cai family."
Jia Rong said: "I see, then have you seen Diao Chan?"
Liu's face turned red, and he cupped his hands and said: "I just heard about it, but I have never seen it. It is said that none of the men who have seen Diao Chan are alive anymore, because they were all fascinated to death. Of course, this is just a legend. If it weren't for the Seven-Star Sword,
Wang Yun neglected to take precautions when planning a birthday banquet, and he had no chance to obtain his humble position."
"Well, I will definitely go and meet Situ Shuangbi if I have the chance." Jia Rong said slowly.
Everyone likes to see beautiful women, let alone the famous Diao Chan. Jia Rong became curious.
After the two resigned, Jia Rong once again took out the seven-star sword and looked at it carefully. He had a green sword and did not need a weapon for the time being. Who would it be better to give this weapon to?
With a long sigh, he put away the seven-star sword and headed towards the training ground to gather the Bingzhou Army. As the chief general, he naturally had to step in to appease and stabilize the morale of the army.
Jia Rong climbed up to the high platform of the training ground. There was still a buzzing sound below, and he couldn't help but frown. In the past, as long as he walked up to it, the army would immediately quiet down.
It was only with the concerted efforts of all the generals that the entire campus became quiet.
"If you join the Xiliang Army, you are my Jia Rong's brother. As long as I have food to eat, you will not be hungry." Jia Rong shouted loudly with a "trumpet".
The scene fell silent. Jia Rong's super-large voice completely shocked them. They were so shocked that they stared at Jia Rong with wide eyes.
Jia Rong was very satisfied with the following reaction and continued: "If you don't believe me, you can ask the surrounding Xiliang Army how they are treated in the army; of course, you are not yet a qualified Xiliang Army soldier, only
Only after selection can we decide whether you can stay in the army."
As soon as Jia Rong finished speaking, the soldiers below immediately started a buzzing discussion. This was the first time they encountered this situation, and they had to go through selection before they could join the Xiliang Army.
Seeking support and popularity, the strength of the Xiliang Army requires all comrades to increase their firepower, blow up the ones in front and show off the power of the Xiliang Army.
