Reborn in the Three Kingdoms, I stole Liu Bei's uncle
Chapter 152: Dragon Enters the Dream
After Liu Yu came out of the palace, he had been hiding in Wang Yun's mansion. The abdication edict had already been sent to Dong Zhuo, and now all he had to do was wait for Dong Zhuo to enter the palace.
When he met Liu Xie this time, Liu Yu felt that the childishness in him was gone, and in his place was calm and steady.
Although the admiration for me in his eyes remained the same, he was able to conceal it well.
From Liu Xie's calm eyes, Liu Yu felt the sadness and difficulty of the journey from Luoyang to Chang'an.
In later generations, while a teenager was still enjoying the happiness of family, Liu Xie had to face this problem alone.
Liu Xie did not say much about the plan to get rid of Dong Zhuo.
In his opinion, Dong Zhuo's power was too strong, and the city of Chang'an was like an iron plate, welding everyone inside.
Liu Xie wanted to go out for some fresh air, but found that the door in front of him could not be opened at all.
He was helpless, confused, lost, and hesitant... countless negative emotions surrounded him like a tide.
Perhaps only in dreams can he feel a little relieved.
Liu Yu knew that he was enduring pain that was not appropriate for someone of his age.
If you want to wear its crown, you must bear its weight.
If you want to sit on the supreme throne, you must endure loneliness and pain.
This may be the sadness of being born in a royal family.
Seeing the haggardness in Liu Xie's eyes, Liu Yu could only comfort him with kind words.
This is the only thing Liu Yu can do at present.
Although the course of history showed that Dong Zhuo was finally eliminated, Liu Yu did not know whether this was his own plan.
In the original history, an important figure who caused the rift between Dong Zhuo and Lu Bu was Diao Chan.
Although Diao Chan has appeared now, she has been hiding in Wang Yun's mansion and has not participated in this operation.
For Dong Zhuo, the throne was like coming across a piece of barbecue after being hungry for countless days. He would pounce on it regardless of everything.
When a person rushes towards something regardless of the consequences, it is difficult for him to see the danger.
Just because he can’t see it doesn’t mean the people around him can’t see it.
No matter how tempting the throne is, it is still not enough to attract Li Ru's attention.
He is like a lone wolf, looking at everything in the world indifferently.
The first thing he sees is not food, but danger.
Only when all dangers are eliminated will he chew his food slowly.
Liu Yu had no confidence at all that he could defeat such an opponent.
Even if I have the superpower of a prophet, I still can't do it.
In this era when countless extraordinary strategists appear, Li Ru is like a meteor, streaking across the sky, leaving behind a radiance that is enough to rival anyone.
With Li Ru's ability, if he follows a wise leader, he can definitely achieve fame in this era.
Unfortunately, he followed the wrong person. At this time, Dong Zhuo had become completely corrupt and no longer had any of the charm of the former Xiliang hero.
He is like a ship full of holes and about to sink, sailing on the sea. Even the most powerful captain will sink with the wind and waves.
At this critical moment, even Xu Shu, who was usually calm, seemed a little heavy.
"My Lord, will Dong Zhuo show up on time tomorrow?"
"He will appear. After all, it's the throne. In this era, all the princes who hold military power have the dream of becoming emperor. This cannot be blamed on Dong Zhuo. If it were anyone else, I'm afraid they would do the same."
"The decline of the Han Dynasty allowed these demons to run wild. If it were really the heyday of the past, these people would not dare to have the heart to usurp power even if they dreamed. In the end, it's no one's fault. It's all because Emperor Heng and Emperor Ling were too troublesome, and they turned the great Han Dynasty into this state."
Xu Shu agreed.
"It is opportunities like this that allow the lord to use his talents."
Liu Yu shook his head slowly.
"I would rather be born in a prosperous era, live a mediocre life, marry, have children, and die in bed. This is also a great blessing in life."
Liu Yu's words seemed casual, but they were actually his true thoughts. A person who lived in a prosperous age suddenly and inexplicably came to this era. He had been tired of being a cow and a horse in his previous life. When he came to this world, he had fields and slaves at home, married several young women, and lived a life of idleness and waiting to die. Wouldn't that be nice for him?
If there is a condition to lie down, who would want to run around all day?
I don’t know whether others want Liu Yu or not, but Liu Yu doesn’t want to.
Xu Shu saw that Liu Yu's tone was indifferent and his expression was calm, and it was obvious that the words just now were from Liu Yu's heart.
This made Xu Shu confused. In this era, achieving great things and bringing honor to the family was the dream of countless people.
Liu Yu is so young, could it be that he has really seen through the world?
"My lord, the Han Dynasty is about to fall. It is time for you to save the Han Dynasty from collapse. You must not slack off."
Liu Yu waved his hand, signaling Xu Shu not to worry.
I'm just complaining. It's not realistic for me to really quit.
There is chaos everywhere now, and there will be no peaceful place in the Han Dynasty in the near future. Even if I want to lie down, there is nowhere to lie down.
If he had no soldiers and no power, he would probably die in the chaos of war in no time.
"Don't worry, Yuanzhi. I have no intention of retreating until the world is injustice."
After hearing this, Xu Shu had a smile on his face. He abandoned Yuan Shao and chose Liu Yu because he saw that Liu Yu was humble, but the more important reason was that he was determined to support the Han Dynasty.
If there was no prerequisite for supporting the Han Dynasty, even if Liu Yu broke Xu Shu's hand, he would not be able to gain Xu Shu's favor.
Xu Shu gave up literature and martial arts just to realize his ambitions one day. He was really afraid that Liu Yu would give up. If that happened, all his plans would become empty talk.
This time, as long as he could kill Dong Zhuo and firmly control Chang'an City, and as long as he worked hard for several years, Liu Yu would be one of the most powerful forces of this era.
These two locations can be used for attack or defense. As long as we train the soldiers and enrich the people, we will be able to sweep the world in a few years.
It is for this reason that Xu Shu agreed to Liu Yu's coming to Chang'an City. This was a life-and-death battle and also the most important opportunity. He was willing to follow Liu Yu and work together to achieve this goal.
……
……
Dong Zhuo was smug and proud. He did not believe that Liu Yu could cause much trouble in Chang'an.
There are hundreds of thousands of soldiers in Chang'an City. Even if Liu Yu had not died, it would have been difficult for him to cause any trouble in Chang'an City.
At this moment, the soldiers sent by Li Ru returned to report that all 4,000 Xiliang cavalry had died in the forest, and no one survived.
When Li Ru got the news, he felt a little unbelievable for a moment. A total of 4,000 people were killed by Liu Yu without anyone noticing. Not a single person was left alive, and no one escaped to report the news.
Li Ru was very confused about this result. According to his calculations, Liu Yu would not bring too many soldiers with him.
The military strategy says to surround an enemy if there are ten of them. Only in this way can we ensure that none of the 4,000 Xiliang cavalry escapes.
That is to say, how many people did Liu Yu bring to Chang'an City this time?
As soon as this thought came to his mind, Liu Yu felt it was impossible.
Li Ru participated in the entire process of building the current defense system, and he knows the situation best.
Li Ru had a very clear understanding of the combat effectiveness of the Xiliang Iron Cavalry.
If he could defeat the Xiliang Cavalry with a small number of men, it would only mean that they were too terrifying.
"Prime Minister, Liu Yu managed to escape despite being surrounded by heavy troops, which shows that he had already made arrangements in Chang'an City. Ru believes that the abdication of the emperor is very likely related to Liu Yu."
Dong Zhuo was very confident. Having been at the pinnacle of power for a long time, he believed that he was the legendary man of destiny.
No one in this world can stop him.
"Wenyou, my family often dreams of a dragon. Doesn't this prove that our family is destined to be together?"
Li Ru was speechless about Dong Zhuo's words about dreaming about a dragon. Although he was not an atheist, he knew that the so-called dream had no basis at all. What could decide everything from beginning to end was strength.
If Liu Yu had not suddenly appeared, Li Ru would not have stopped Dong Zhuo from becoming emperor. Unlike the scholars from aristocratic families, the Han Dynasty was like a light feather in his eyes, without any weight at all.
The fact that he planned to depose and enthrone emperors and treat Liu Xie like a bird in a cage is a clear proof of this.
In his plan, Dong Zhuo wanted to replace the Han Dynasty and establish his own kingdom.
But that was after the four seas were united and the world was conquered.
At this point in time, such a thing happened, which made Li Ru feel difficult to deal with.
He tried to persuade Dong Zhuo again, but seeing Dong Zhuo saying that it was fate, Li Ru knew that his persuasion today would be useless.
Dong Zhuo was so determined to seize the throne that he was dumb and unwilling to change his mind.
He said no more and walked out of the fort with a lost look on his face.
After walking out of the fortress, Li Ru still couldn't calm down. If the emperor's abdication was related to Liu Yu, it was very likely a plan to kill Dong Zhuo.
But now, no matter how he persuaded, Dong Zhuo would not listen, which made him feel unprecedentedly frustrated. In the past, it was because Dong Zhuo listened to him that he could thrive and offer brilliant ideas again and again.
With his remaining consciousness, he came to a mansion.
When he saw Li Ru outside the mansion, he hurried inside.
After a while, a thin old man came quickly to Li Ru.
In his impression, Li Ru has always been known to be smart, capable, calm and composed, but now seeing Li Ru's distraught look, he was secretly frightened.
"Mr. Li, why are you so haggard? Is there something big going on?"
Li Ru heard the voice and slowly came back to his senses.
He recounted the entire incident in detail and finally sighed.
"Wenhe, the big thing is over. I'm afraid we will all become ghosts under the knife this time."
There was a hint of sadness in Jia Xu's eyes. After listening to Li Ru's explanation, Jia Xu knew that Dong Zhuo was beyond redemption.
As the saying goes, good words cannot persuade a damned ghost. He had already lost confidence in Dong Zhuo.
These days, he stayed in his house every day, not going out, and didn't care about the situation in Chang'an. He knew that Dong Zhuo would be defeated sooner or later, but he didn't expect that day to come so soon.
"Mr. Li, I have said before that with Mr. Li's talent, he would be a guest of honor wherever he goes. Why do you insist on your own opinion?"
Li Ru's face turned pale and he shook his head slowly and firmly.
"The Prime Minister has been very kind to me. Without his appreciation, I would still be struggling in this remote place."
Seeing that he was still like this, Jia Xu also sighed and said, "Although what Lord Li said makes sense, don't forget that it was Lord Li's brilliant plans that enabled the Prime Minister to rise from a remote corner of Xiliang to the highest position among the ministers. In this sense, Lord Li has already repaid the Prime Minister's kindness to him."
"This favor is so great that it cannot be repaid with just a few tricks."
Seeing that he was so stubborn, Jia Xu could only shake his head slightly.
"Even if Lord Li wanted to report this to the Prime Minister, it's a pity that the Prime Minister didn't listen."
"Even if he doesn't listen to my advice, I still can't leave him." Li Ru's voice was floating and weak. "I am very confused at the moment. I came here just to ask Wen He if there is any good way to save the prime minister in this situation."
Jia Xu pondered for a moment and slowly shook his head.
"Now that the Prime Minister is determined to do what he wants, I don't have any strategy."
Li Ru had thought about this matter countless times in his mind. The only thing he could do now was to mobilize a large number of troops to follow Dong Zhuo. This would ensure Dong Zhuo's safety. However, most of the troops were in the fortress. It was impossible to mobilize heavy troops without Dong Zhuo's approval.
Crystal tears flashed in Li Ru's eyes, and in an instant, countless past events reappeared in his mind.
When they first met, they hit it off and drank and talked happily.
Dong Zhuo, who had achieved great success, did not show any pride on his face and was very respectful to Li Ru.
At that time, Dong Zhuo was full of vigor and vitality, and he was talking and laughing calmly. The determination in his eyes instantly captured Li Ru's heart.
Ever since that banquet, Li Ru secretly made up his mind that he would do his best in this life to help Dong Zhuo achieve great things.
In the following course, Li Ru also gradually fulfilled his promise.
Jia Xu saw Li Ru's lonely eyes and felt a little sorry. Although he did not think highly of Dong Zhuo, he admired Li Ru's talent very much.
"Mr. Li, I have a plan to save the Xiliang soldiers."
"Wenhe, you can talk as you please."
Jia Xu slowly told Li Ru his plan. After hearing it, Li Ru said nothing, because Jia Xu's plan did not include Dong Zhuo, which meant that in Jia Xu's mind, Dong Zhuo was no longer alive.
Li Ru was unwilling to accept that the outcome would develop in the direction he hated.
"Wen He Duozhi, is there really no other solution?"
Seeing that Li Ru was not giving up, Jia Xu pondered for a moment and said, "I have a plan. Lord Li may try it."
Li Ru's eyes revealed a hint of joy.
"Wenhe, tell me quickly."
Jia Xu said slowly: "Since the Prime Minister mentioned that a dragon entered his dream, why don't we follow this line of thought and try to persuade him."
Li Ru was a resourceful man. He had just lost his spirit because of his disappointment with Dong Zhuo's actions. Now, after hearing what Jia Xu said, his mind gradually became clear.
He thought about what he had just said and slowly understood what Jia Xu meant. Since you believe in dreams so much, then use the magic of ghosts and gods to persuade him.
"Maybe this plan can be tried."
Li Ru sighed and thought that at this point, he could only try his best to save the situation.
