Chapter 108 Luoyang

Chapter 108

"Age Cai, you are here, father, have you finished talking?" Seeing Cai Yong and Ding Yuan coming, Lv Bu was a little embarrassed. He hurried forward to say hello. It must be a difficult thing to seduce his daughter in front of his father. Although Lv Bu indulged in killing on the battlefield without mercy, he was still a little strange about the love scene, and naturally he was inevitably embarrassed.

"That's the little girl Cai Yan. Cai Yan hasn't come to see Ding Shishi and General Lu. This little girl spoiled me and made you laugh at that time." Cai Yong hurriedly let Cai Yan see Ding Yuan, but he looked in love with Cai Yan. Obviously, Cai Yong usually regarded Cai Yan as the pearl in his palm.

"It's all my child, Lv Bu, who was so unreasonable that he broke into Mr. Bo's backyard and asked Mr. Bo's forgiveness." Ding Yuan looked at Lv Bu, saluted Cai Yong, and quickly apologized for Lv Bu.

"Lord Ding blamed General Lv. He blamed the little woman for not stroking the piano here. This attracted General Lv to come, and the little woman apologized here." At this time, Cai Yan suddenly stood up and spoke for Lv Bu.

Hearing Cai Yan's words, Ding Yuan took a look at Cai Yong, but laughed again. No wonder Ding Yuan laughed. After all, Lv Bu and Cai Yan only knew each other for a while. Cai Yan actually spoke for Lv Bu, which was in response to an old saying: "Girls are extroverted."

"The little girl's family, you can interrupt when the adult is talking, why don't you go back to have a rest." After listening to Cai Yan's words, Cai Yong on one side was a little angry and drove Cai Yan back to the room.

Ding Yuan is a general. He can naturally tolerate Cai Yan's performance and smile. Besides, Cai Yan speaks for Lv Bu. If Lv Bu can make a connection with Cai Yan, it is also a good thing for Ding Yuan. After all, in this society, literature is still valued over martial arts. If Lv Bu can marry Cai Yan, he can naturally pass Cai Yong, so that Lv Bu can be recognized by the scholars.

But Ding Yuan thought so, but Cai Yong beside him didn't look at it like this. First of all, Cai Yan had a marriage contract and had been betrothed to the Hedong Wei family. The ancestor of the Wei family was the general Wei Qing. Although Wei Qing was a horseman, he repeatedly made great achievements and became the general of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty. Since then, the Wei family has become a famous family of the Han Dynasty. Although the current Wei family has declined, it is still a famous family, which is not comparable to a rural man like Lv Bu.

Besides, Cai Yong is a great Confucian in the world, with knowledge through ancient and modern times. In Cai Yong's eyes, Lv Bu was just a brave man, although he could be used as a knife and gun of the Han Dynasty in wartime. But as the saying goes: those who work hard govern people, and those who work hard govern people. After all, Lv Bu is just a laborer, and it is difficult to change the fate of governing people. The future son-in-law of the Cai family should at least be a hard-working person.

From this point of view, although Lv Bu is famous for his bravery, he is still not qualified to be Cai Yong's son-in-law.

"It's just a child's play. Why do you have to mind? It's getting late. There are still military affairs in the army, so it won't bother. Seeing Cai Yong's look, Ding Yuan naturally knew what Cai Yong meant, so he got up and said goodbye, unwilling to stay any longer.

Although Ding Yuan had many scruples about Lv Bu and thought that Lv Bu was too ambitious, even Ding Yuan might kill Lv Bu for the stability of the big man. But Lv Bu must be Ding Yuan's adopted son. The two have been together for many years, and their personal relationship is still very good. Therefore, Cai Yong looked down on Lv Bu and looked down on Ding Yuan. Of course, Ding Yuan is going to pat his buttocks and leave.

In fact, this is already Ding Yuan's politeness. If the person in front of him is not Cai Yong, a famous scholar in the world, if it is someone else, maybe Ding Yuan will turn against him on the spot.

Ding Yuan returned to the army with Lv Bu, but he never talked about Cai Yan anymore, but gathered the generals to discuss the situation in Luoyang in front of him.

"The current situation in Luoyang is much more severe than we think. Dong Zhuo originally brought 30,000 Xiliang cavalry, but now he has recovered 50,000 Northern troops. Now Dong Zhuo has 50,000 Northern troops in his hands, and the city of Luoyang is tall and strong, which is difficult to attack. In this way, our army is completely passive. At the same time, some princes heard that Dong Zhuo was powerful and had retreated back. Now only the troops of Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu can help us, but there are not many soldiers and horses of these two people, and Dong Zhuo's follow-up of 200,000 Xiliang soldiers will arrive in the next few days. The generals are in this situation now. I don't know what you have any opinions. Let's talk about it. Ding Yuan came straight to the point, told the situation in Luoyang and discussed it with the generals. Dong Zhuo is now strong and can be seen by people with bright eyes, so Ding Yuan did not want to hide anything from the generals at the beginning, but to tell the truth.

"I think that now that Dong Zhuo's military strength is strong, our army should first send troops to capture the Yellow River Ferry to ensure the back path of our army, so that our army can be invincible. In the future, we will fight with Dong Zhuo's army. If the war goes well, our army can get Luoyang. If the war is not good, our army can also cross the Yellow River and return to Bingzhou. Gao Shun thought for a moment, and then said quietly.

In Lv Bu's view, Gao Shun's proposition is undoubtedly correct. Now that Dong Zhuo has entered Luoyang, chaos is about to rise. Only when there is a foothold in troubled times can he live in peace and develop again. Although Bingzhou is not big and rich enough, it is a land of one state after all. If you can retreat to Bingzhou and occupy the land of a state, it is undoubtedly the best for the future hegemony in troubled times, but Lv Bu can only think about it by himself and can't say it. Not to mention the generals, even Ding Yuan would not let Lv Bu do this. Ding Yuan must be loyal to the Han Dynasty and has infinite reverie about the Han Dynasty.

"Lv Bu, my son, what do you think of this matter?" Ding Yuan listened to Gao Shun's opinion, but did not say anything. Instead, he looked back at Lv Bu.

Although no matter what Lv Bu said, Ding Yuan will eventually follow his own ideas. However, it is necessary for Ding Yuan to solicit opinions from Lv Bu. Because now Ding Yuan's generals are mainly divided into two factions. One faction accepts Ding Yuan's direct leadership, while the other faction is led by Lv Buma. For example, Dian Wei, Wei Xu and others. Therefore, Ding Yuan asked Lv Bu to show his respect for these people. Although Lv Bu's power to control is very limited now, it is only limited to his 5,000 benean wolf riders.

"In my father's words, I think General Gao's words are very right. Our army should send troops to occupy the Yellow River ferry, but the purpose of occupying the Yellow River ferry is not to leave our army behind, but to transfer more soldiers and horses from Bingzhou. Although Dong Zhuo's army looks strong now, in fact it is not. Dong Zhuo forcibly annexed 50,000 Northern Army with 30,000 Western Liang cavalry. Although it was successful, his control over the Northern Army was limited. Usually, it was not possible. Once there was a war, the Northern Army must be overwhelmed. Let's take a look at Dong Zhuo's 200,000 reinforcements. Although the lineup is strong, Liangzhou has been suffering from war for a long time, and the harvest is not as good as our Bingzhou. How much food can we have? Where can we raise so many soldiers and horses? Therefore, Xiliang's reinforcements are known as 200,000. In fact, they are only 200,000 people who come to Luoyang to make a living. Their combat effectiveness is not worth mentioning. As long as they are not allowed to enter Luoyang and rely on the city, in the field, our army can be destroyed at one fell swoop. Now, the only thing in Dong Zhuo's army that can make my army worry is actually the 30,000 Liangzhou iron riders. Liangzhou Iron Horse is unparalleled, well-trained and unparalleled in the world, but it is only good at fighting in the field and not good at attacking the city. As long as our army can avoid fighting with Liangzhou Iron Horse in the field, it is actually very sure to defeat Dong Zhuo. Lv Bu was embarrassed to talk about it. Thinking about it like this, the clouds on the faces of the generals suddenly swept away. Dong Zhuo, who was invincible to the generals just now, now seems to have become a paper tiger. It seems that as long as Ding Yuan leads a bucket of troops, Dong Zhuo, the tiger, will be destroyed in an instant.

However, Lv Bu said such a thing, but he had no choice but to. As far as Lv Bu's heart is concerned, he did not want to fight with Dong Zhuo, but Lv Bu knew that Ding Yuan would not agree. Since Ding Yuan has made up his mind to fight to the death with Dong Zhuo, Lv Bu can only choose to help Ding Yuan with all his strength and defeat Dong Zhuo. That's what it means.

"Sure enough, father and son are connected, Lv Bu, my son means, that is, I mean. The world of this big man can only be in the hands of the emperor of the big man. Anyone who wants to touch the artifact of the society will be eliminated. This is the fate of us big men. Ding Yuan said word by word, obviously making up his mind. The generals will listen to the order, Gao Shun. You lead 5,000 soldiers and horses of the headquarters to the Yellow River Ferry overnight. Be sure to seize it. At the same time, the order is publicized, and the soldiers of Bingzhou come to support.

Just when Ding Yuan and others discussed the next action plan. In Luoyang City, in the new general's mansion, Li Ru and Dong Zhuo are also plotting.

"Good news, General, our 200,000 Xiliang reinforcements have arrived." Li Ru came to Dong Zhuo's side with a smile on his face.

"Real? Now that you have arrived, why don't you go to the city? I have these 200,000 reinforcements. At that time, I will look at the government and the opposition, and the ignorant. After listening to the news brought by Li Ru, Dong Zhuo's face was full of excitement. Obviously, these days, Dong Zhuo also feels that he can't control the scene by relying on the 30,000 Liangzhou iron riders he brought and the newly attached 50,000 Beijun. Now when Dong Zhuo heard the news of the arrival of 200,000 reinforcements, he finally put his heart into his stomach and suddenly had the feeling of mastering the universe and arbitrarily.

"Ha ha, general, I didn't let the reinforcements enter Luoyang." Looking at Dong Zhuo, Li Ru showed a sinister smile. Dong Zhuo was very familiar with Li Ru's smile. He knew what insidious plan Li Ru was going to implement, and he was not in a hurry to open his mouth. Sure enough, Li Ru's words made Dong Zhuo smile and claim to be wonderful.
