Chapter 316 Farewell
Jia Rong arched his hand and said, "Yuan Shao and others are known as 500,000 troops and are invincible. You and my armies add up to only 70,000 or 80,000. This is in danger." Jia Rong is not alarmist. The military strength of the 18-way princes may not be strong, but they can hold the grain road of Luyang. If it doesn't work in a year, it will be around for two years until you are short of food. At that time, you will not win without a battle.
Dong Zhuo's face changed greatly and he said urgently, "Zhiyuan, is there really no room for redemption?"
"Ryoyang is the capital of the Han Dynasty, and the surrounding eight passes are the only way to Luyang. As long as you stick to these eight passes, the Kanto princes can only wander outside the customs. It is thought that these princes are just a mob. When their food and fodder are exhausted, they will naturally be dispersed. At that time, the Taishi will lead the 'master of benevolence and righteousness' to completely destroy these rebellions. Solve it, and then rejuvenate the Han Dynasty and achieve immortal fame, and the humble position can also be famous all over the world. Jia Rong drew a big cake for Dong Zhuo. He even thought about what happened after the defeat of the eighteen princes, which was not incomplete.
Dong Zhuo is not a stupid person. After figure out the key points, he stroked his palm and praised, "Zhiyuan is really my blessing."
"How to arrange the military strength around the eight gates of Luoyang, please ask Zhiyuan to teach each other." Dong Zhuo gave full play to the excellent quality of being shameless.
At the critical moment, Jia Rong no longer hid and told Dong Zhuo how to arrange the surrounding checkpoints.
"The world is in chaos. It seems that there are so few loyal people like Laofu and Zhiyuan. It's a pity that the four-hundred-year-old man is about to be destroyed. The family and officials in the city are just people who bully the world. At the critical moment, there are too few people like Laofu and Zhiyuan in the world." Dong Zhuo sighed.
Jia Rong is full of chills. If these words are heard by those great Confucians, I'm afraid they will be directly dizzy.
Jia Rong is curious why Dong Zhuo doesn't ask Li Ru and asks himself in turn. With Li Ru's wisdom, it is easy to think of this. In addition, a few years ago, he discussed this matter with Li Ru for a long time, but this is a private matter of the Dong Zhuo family, and Jia Rong is not easy to ask.
Looking at the main hall, I didn't see Li Ru's figure, but Li Su was in the hall.
I have to say that Dong Zhuo knows how to enjoy it. The hall is magnificently decorated by it. I don't know how much money it costs. Even the chair where Dong Zhuo sits is made of gold. Looking at the main hall of the Taishi Mansion, Jia Rong suddenly has a feeling that his mansion is really too shabby.
"General Jia, our soldiers and horses are stationed in the eight levels, and there are not many troops, and we rely on General Jia's efforts." Li Su, who was beside him, stepped out and said.
Jia Rong frowned slightly and looked at Dong Zhuo puzzledly. He talked to Dong Zhuo. How could he interrupt without authorization as Li Su?
Dong Zhuo smiled and nodded to acquiesce.
"Taishi, Xiliang Army will try its best to protect Luyang. Hulao Pass is the first pass of Luyang. After I go back, I will lead the sergeant to fight." Jia Rongdao.
"Zhiyuan's heart to serve the country can be seen from the world. I will show this matter in the court tomorrow." Dong Zhuo said excitedly.
Li Su was surprised that Jia Rong agreed so readily. He was even more excited and continued to say, "Our army is not much. Please ask the general to borrow some soldiers, horses and food and fodder."
Jia Rong laughed secretly. Is this Li Su stupid? He regards himself as a wrongdoer.
"The number of Xiliang Army is only 10,000. How can it be compared with your army? The grain and fodder is not enough for our army. I hope that the Taishi can prepare food and fodder matters for our army. The three armies do not move food and fodder first. If there is no food and fodder, it is meaningless for the Xiliang army to guard the air pass." Since you are looking for yourself to do something, you must provide benefits. How can you make people contribute? Instead, you want to take advantage of it.
"General Jia, this is the meaning of the emperor. If you don't do it, it is against the will of the emperor. Think it over." Li Su snorted coldly.
Jia Rong smiled and said, "You and I don't say secret words. What kind of holy will is just your wishful thinking." Since he has torn his face, Jia Rong doesn't mind saying a little more.
"Do you think you can get out of Taishi Mansion with the little people you brought?" Li Su sneered.
When the soldiers outside the hall heard the words, they broke in with knives and guns. Zhao Yun hurriedly led the blood guard behind Jia Rong, and the scene suddenly became tense.
Jia Rong sneered and said, "Does Lord Li think that tens of thousands of soldiers of the Xiliang Army can rest assured that I walk into the Taishi Mansion? In an hour, if I don't go out from the Taishi Mansion, the Xiliang Army will attack the Taishi Mansion with the strength of the whole army. There is still half an hour left. Lord Li, it's up to you.
Li Su's face kept changing, pointing to Jia Rong and said, "You..."
Dong Zhuo got up and laughed and said, "Zhiyuan's words are serious. Now Yuan Shao and other anti-thieves attack Luoyang and bully the saint. It is the time when you and I are fighting together. Why fight for some small things? I give Zhiyuan 2,000 soldiers and horses to guard the tiger prison. How about it?"
"If you don't retreat yet." Dong Zhuo shouted at Li Suri.
Jia Rong held his fist and said, "Thank you for your understanding. I vowed to guard the tiger prison to the death and not let the Kwantung allied forces step into the pass."
Dong Zhuo laughed and said, "Zhiyuan is not polite!"
What is it to report to the emperor? Dong Zhuo himself is not in the court. Jia Rong did not break it. He hugged his fist and said, "If there is nothing wrong, I will leave first." After saying that, he hurried out of the house with Zhao Yun and others. No matter how beautiful the Taishi Mansion was, Jia Rong was not in the mood to take another look.
Returning to the general's mansion, Jia Rong breathed a sigh of relief. It is undeniable that Dong Zhuo summoned himself to go there today, but he was murderous.
"Ting Gao Shun to guard the Hangu Pass. You can't open and close the door without my order." Jia Rong said.
Since the Hangu Pass fell into his own hands, he would not give up easily. The eighteen princes came for Dong Zhuo. Dong Zhuo couldn't help but why Li Ru didn't appear. This question has been lingering in Jia Rong's heart, "Is it that Li Ru is doing something that can't be seen?" Such an idea flashed in Jia Rong's heart.
The merchants in Luoyang were unlucky, but Xianlian Pavilion did not suffer any losses. With the protection of the Xiliang Army, Dong Zhuo had to let go of Xianlian Pavilion, and many merchants took the opportunity to seek asylum from Xianlian Pavilion.
After Su Shuang told Jia Rong about this matter, Jia Rong thought for a while and then agreed. If he made friends with these businessmen, there would be one more way to make a fortune, and it would be necessary to associate with these businessmen in the future.
"Lord, the whole Yuan family was escorted to the streets by Dong Zhuo, ready to be beheaded." After Jia Xu got the news, he came in a hurry.
Jia Rong nodded and said, "I know this matter. The Yuan family has always been a disaster. It's better to kill it early."
The princes of Kanto can't last for a long time. Seeing that the tiger's strength is strong and there is enough food and fodder, they will definitely not talk about the war lightly. At that time, it will become a tug-of-war. The foundation of Jia Rong and Dong Zhuo are in Liangzhou. Luoyang is messed up by Dong Zhuo. Without food and fodder, the army will collapse in an instant. They drag it. Jia Rong couldn't afford to procrastinate.
Dong Zhuo killed Yuan Kui, which just happened to arouse Yuan Shao's anger. The Yuan family is not as calm as it seems. The Xianlian Pavilion has not been in Luyang for a long time. Many news can't be found out. The power of the Yuan family is intertwined. If Yuan Kui and the allied forces come together, the battle will become more difficult.
Although killing Yuan Kui will put himself and Dong Zhuo on the opposite side of the whole world, it is what he has to do at present. Jia Rong has some understanding of Dong Zhuo's practice of killing the Yuan family in history. Lu Yang has such an unstable factor. How can Dong Zhuo rush to Hu Prison at ease?
Luoyang is a place of right and wrong. When Xu Shu occupied Chang'an, it was when the Xiliang army withdrew from the army. However, before that, Jia Rong did not mind seeing the demeanor of the Kanto princes and the heroes of the world for a while, it would not be worth his life.
After handing over the whole matter of Luoyang to Jia Xu, he asked for orders from the emperor the next day. Jia Rong led a thousand soldiers and horses to the Tiger Prison Pass, and Zhang Wei led three thousand infantry to rush to Chenggao Pass. Even if Luoyang changed, Jia Rong would not be trapped in the Tiger Prison Pass.
There were 1,000 people in the original pass, plus more than 2,000 people brought by Lv Bu and others, it was enough to lead a thousand people.
Zhang Zhi was left by Jia Rong to protect Jia Xu's safety. More than a dozen lone wolf soldiers have already been placed in Cai's house to protect the safety of the Cai family's father and daughter. With the protection of these ten people, even if a hundred soldiers come, they can't get benefits.
Thinking of Cai Yan, Jia Rong felt a little sorry for her. It was almost the day of marriage, but such a thing happened. However, the matter between the two has been settled. Marriage is only a matter of time. Wei Fu did not blame her for marrying Cai Yan, but also faintly encouraged her letter, which made Jia Rongda In order to cheer up, ancient women are good.
Under the influence of the family, there are rumors in the city that Dong Zhuo and Jia Rong can't last long.
Outside the city of Luyang City, Jia Rong, dressed in golden armor, was reflected by the light reflected by the early morning sun, which made people unable to open their eyes. The war horse under him also felt the arrival of the war and walked steadily among the soldiers, as if they were reviewing.
A carriage galloped out of the city, about two arrows away from the Xiliang Army, and slowly stopped.
Cai Yan, dressed in white, leaned out of the carriage and jumped down regardless of the height of the carriage.
The maid behind him hurriedly grabbed her.
Surrounded by several maids, Cai Yan came to Jia Rong and looked at Jia Rong quietly with red eyes.
Jia Rong leaned down, looked at Cai Yan lovingly, patted her on the shoulder and said, "Yian'er, don't be afraid. I just went to the Tiger Prison to have a look and will be back in a few days."
Cai Yan covered his face with his hands and cried. As he cried, he said, "The city says that the eldest brother is a bad guy, and he also said that when the coalition forces come in, all the people related to the eldest brother will suffer. Is that right? Big brother."
Jia Rong gently hugged Cai Yan in his arms and said with a smile, "Yan'er, you can't believe those people's words. You and the teacher will be fine. I'll marry you when I come back, and then we'll go back to Jincheng, okay?"
Cai Yan's crying gradually stopped, and he choked and said, "Well, Yan'er will wait for the eldest brother. Yan'er hasn't been to Jincheng yet. I heard from the merchants in the city that it is a very beautiful place."
Looking at the poor collection and red tickets, the cliff couldn't help shouting: "Please collect red!" Although the reward is thrown, these things are all good things to stimulate the cliff and more.
