"Chang'an has a vast territory and a large population. It is the place where emperors of all dynasties have established their capitals. Moreover, my lord has been operating there for many years and has a deep foundation. There is also a natural barrier at Tongguan, which can avoid the attacks of the princes and easily defend the city by relying on the dangerous terrain."
Seeing that Dong Zhuo was still unmoved, Li Ru couldn't help but frown, and then smiled slightly.
"My lord, haven't you ever heard such a nursery rhyme?"
"Nursery rhyme?"
Now Dong Zhuo became interested in what nursery rhymes had to do with moving.
"With a Han in the west and a Han in the east, it will be easy for a deer to walk into Chang'an."
"what for?"
Dong Zhuo's face was filled with confusion.
"The first Han Dynasty in the west corresponds to the Han Emperor who flourished in Chang'an, the western capital, and passed down twelve emperors. The Han Dynasty in the east corresponds to Emperor Guangwu of the Han Dynasty, who flourished in Luoyang, the eastern capital, and has passed down twelve emperors to this day.
The fate of the world will change, and if the prime minister can move back to Chang'an, he will have no worries."
While explaining, Li Ru bowed down to Dong Zhuo.
"Nursery rhymes convey God's will. When you say this, Wenyou, I understand. I summon all the officials to the palace. I will go to the palace to invite your majesty."
Dong Zhuo's situation was bleak. Although the coalition forces won, they were not much better. Qiao Mao, Zhang Miao, and Wang Kuang were like defeated roosters, sitting in the corner without saying a word.
"Gentlemen, don't be like this. We defeated Dong Zhuo in this battle and drove him back to Luoyang. We should be happy, why should we be sad?"
After listening to Yuan Shu's words, the feudal lords regained a little strength and each raised a glass to drink with Yuan Shu.
After the princes dispersed, Yuan Shu kept Zhang Miao behind.
"Meng Zhuo, are you feeling ill?"
Yuan Shu raised his wine glass and came to Zhang Miao's side.
Because just now he knew that the reason why Zhang Miao and the others escaped was all because a sergeant under his command destroyed a section of the village wall with a Yamen flag.
This person Yuan Shu feels very familiar, but he can't think of who it is. But no matter who he is, he must be a very powerful character who can make him feel familiar.
Based on the principle of preferring to kill the wrong person, he wanted to snatch this person away no matter what.
"Excuse me, Alliance Leader. Zhang Miao is fine."
Zhang Miao drank all the wine in his hand. He was really depressed tonight. Not only did he lose his troops and almost die in battle, but he also became a joke among the princes.
"Brother Meng Zhuo, I heard that a young general under my command is extremely powerful. Is it all thanks to his efforts that we were able to escape safely this time?"
Yuan Shu smiled at Zhang Miao and helped him drink a glass of wine.
When Yuan Shu poured wine, Zhang Miao was also surprised.
As a defeated general, he really didn't have any dignity, but how could he expect that the dignified Yuan Shu would pour wine for him.
"Thank you, Alliance Leader."
Zhang Miao drank the wine in one gulp, leaving not a drop left.
"Yes, what the alliance leader said is true. This person is called Dian Wei. He does have brute strength. He is a sergeant under Sima Zhao Chong."
Dian Wei, it's actually Dian Wei, good guy, no wonder I know him so well. In the novel, wasn't he the sergeant in Zhang Miao's army who fought against the Yamen Banner with one hand?
Now that you know about it, I'm sorry, Brother Cao. I, Yuan Shu, will accept your evil deeds.
"Brother Meng Zhuo, I love collecting strong men most in my life. Since Dian Wei is so powerful, can you give him to me? I don't want it in vain. I'll give you a thousand taels of gold and fifty war horses in exchange for it."
Yuan Shu thought of a similar reason and also proposed a generous reward.
"No, it's an honor for the sergeant to be favored by the alliance leader. I will ask Dian Wei to report to the alliance leader tomorrow."
Yuan Shu gave himself face, and Zhang Miao was not short of money. Using a small sergeant to make up for the relationship between him and Yuan Shu that was on the verge of breaking up was worth it no matter what.
"Okay, okay, thank you very much, Brother Meng Zhuo."
Now Zhang Miao is not so annoying in Yuan Shu's eyes.
Early the next morning, a strong man eight feet five tall carrying a pair of iron halberds came to Yuan Shu's camp to report.
"Are you Dian Wei?"
Looking at the strong man in front of him, Yuan Shu really doubted his own eyes. The so-called Dian Wei among the so-called one Lu, two Zhao and three Dian Wei was born like this.
"Dian Wei, of humble rank, pays homage to Mr. Yuan."
When he heard Yuan Shu calling his name, Dian Wei immediately knelt down on one knee and saluted Yuan Shu.
Silently open the Sky Eye Technique. You can't make a mistake with this thing. Let's make sure before talking.
Once the Heavenly Eye Technique was opened, Yuan Shu's world became different again.
Dianwei's light pillar is nine feet in size, full of purple light, and there is a faint hint of golden light wrapped around the light pillar.
After determining the character, whether you can make him surrender to you wholeheartedly depends on Yuan Shu's ability.
"Dian Wei, do you know that from today on, you will be under my command."
"Dian Wei knows, Zhao Sima already explained it when he came."
Dian Wei nodded. In fact, he was still in a state of confusion and didn't know what was going on.
"Okay, I heard that you opened the gap and saved the lives of Zhang Miao and three others?"
If you want to regain a person, it is nothing more than a few points, such as fame, wealth, and official position. But even these, there must be a comparison to see the difference.
"Mr. Yuan's words are serious."
Dian Wei was a little embarrassed when he heard Yuan Shu mention what happened last night. He just made such a move on a whim.
"Does Zhang Mengzhuo have any promotion or reward for you?"
"This is a matter of humble duty, not asking for an official or a reward."
After Yuan Shu's words stopped, Dian Wei couldn't help but lower his head and awarded him a reward? Not even a hair on his head.
"How can you treat a meritorious man like this? Well, now that you have become a soldier under my account, let me reward you."
"The order is passed down. Sergeant Dian Wei has performed meritorious service on the battlefield. He will be rewarded with a thousand taels of gold and fifty war horses. He will be appointed as the prefect's personal guard and appointed as the commander of the guard."
"Dianwei, are you willing to protect me until death?"
As soon as Yuan Shu said this, everyone was stunned, including Dian Wei.
Dian Wei joined the army with Zhang Miao and has killed a lot of enemies, but he is still a mere sergeant and has received no rewards at all.
I didn't expect that Yuan Shu had a thousand taels of gold and fifty war horses when he first arrived. He was the same man, but how could the gap be so big?
The golden war horses looked at each other. Secondly, the most important thing was that Yuan Shu actually named himself the captain of the guard.
Who is the Guard Chief? He is the leader of the Prefect's Guards and a confidant general responsible for the Prefect's safety. Naming himself the Guard Chief proves that Yuan Shu has regarded him as a confidant.
If he could meet this enlightened master, what could he ask for in his life?
"My lord, come again, Dian Wei will live up to my lord's trust."
Thinking of this, Dian Wei no longer hesitated and kowtowed directly to Yuan Shu.
"Ding dong, congratulations to the host for taking away the evil of the past and coming to Dian Wei."
"Ding dong, congratulations to the host for getting a chance to draw a lottery."
Hearing the system prompt, Yuan Shu couldn't help but breathed a sigh of relief. When he looked at Dian Wei's name, it was already glowing green.
"Okay, I have Dian Wei like a tiger with wings. When you come, call Zilong, Yan Liang, and Wen Chou to come to the military tent and talk about it. I will put out wine to welcome Dian Wei."
"promise."
This banquet lasted from morning to noon, and did not end until Jushou came in.
