Li Su expected this.
He believes that as long as Xu Ding is a smart person, he can understand that this plan is unsolvable, and he can understand how much bad influence it will bring to his reputation if he refuses.
"However, my lord has said that he must wait three days before raising troops to go north." Liang Xi then set out his own conditions.
He was rejected by Li Su at the first time, and now that the knife is in his hands, Xu Ding has nothing to discuss.
"That's two days, because the captain of our third army in Donglai escorted the prisoners of Guangzong back to Donglai. Now there are only 700 people in Fuwei. If you think we can take down Quyang with only this number of people, then I have nothing to say." What Liang Xi said was the truth.
Tai Shici and Li Dian escorted the captives back to Donglai. Although they had been away for a few days, it would take a few days to come from Qingzhou.
Li Su thought for a while and said, "Okay! I'll give you two days, it won't be too late, please remember it."
After speaking, Li Su left arrogantly.
Liang Xi himself has good martial arts skills, so he really wanted to draw his sword and stab Li Su to death.
The news of Xu Ding's going north spread like wildfire, and Li Su's words spread at the same time, which immediately aroused the anger of all the Han troops in Guangzong City.
I didn't expect Dong Zhuo to be so shameless, so Huang Fusong and Cao Cao came to Xu Ding for this reason.
Huangfusong asked directly: "Bokang, Dong Zhuo forced you to go north and help him defeat Quyang!"
Xu Ding didn't hide it either, because he was the one who let people spread the news.
So he nodded and replied: "Yes, if I don't go north, he will ask the court to order the massacre of the city and the prisoners. I guess once he fails in the siege and is dismissed, the person who takes over can only be you, the general. Very difficult."
Xu Ding's analysis has always been correct, there is no doubt about this between Huangfusong and Cao Cao.
So it is normal for Huangfusong to have a headache.
If he does not respect the will of the imperial court, he will be dismissed from office. If he respects it, massacring the city and killing prisoners will make him bear the title of butcher, and the scholars in the world will despise him.
He will be reviled by the people all over the world, and even be infamous for thousands of years.
At the same time, it also made him unable to fulfill his promise to Xu Ding, causing mutual suspicion and estrangement.
Chapter 87
Chapter 87 Liu Bei's four sworn brothers
Hey!
In this way, I owe Xu Ding again.
Huangfusong was very sorry, but at the same time he didn't know what to say.
Cao Cao said: "Then what is Bokang's need? Do you want us to lead the troops north together?"
Xu Ding had saved his life, now that he was in trouble, Cao Cao felt it was time to act.
But Xu Ding waved his hand and said, "Thank you, Meng De, for your kindness. I don't need it for now. If you go north together, it will only make Dong Zhuo more proud. Don't worry, going north this time is not as dangerous as imagined, and I won't let Dong Zhuo's tricks It worked."
"Okay, since Bokang has this confidence, we can rest assured, but if you need it, you can call at any time, and you will go all the way." Seeing that Xu Ding did not lose confidence, Cao Cao felt relieved when he saw that Xu Ding did not lose his confidence. Not a lot.
Xu Ding said: "Okay, when there is a need, I will definitely ask you for help."
Two days passed quickly, and the captain of the third army escorted the prisoners back to Guangzong City.
Under Li Su's urging, Xu Ding slowly walked towards Xia Quyang with a reluctant army.
Seeing that Xu Ding was procrastinating, Li Su drew his horse closer and said:
"Mr. Xu, it's too slow to go like this. It won't be half a month before I reach Quyang at this speed. When I went south, General Dong confessed that if he couldn't return to Quyang within five days, he would I am going to send a letter to the imperial court to let someone else command the battle in Quyang."
"Give me an order, and you must arrive at Xia Quyang within three days." Xu Ding directly gave the order to the guards, and the guards went down to deliver the order, then Xu Ding turned around and said:
"What did you say just now?"
Say you are paralyzed!
Li Su felt sullen and rushed up, beat his horse and left.
Maybe this guy really knows how to catch words.
Three days later, Donglai soldiers arrived at Xiaquyang as scheduled.
In order to show his magnanimity, Dong Zhuo came out of the camp to pick up Xu Ding with a big belly and a smile like an old chrysanthemum on his face.
Xu Ding had no choice but to cup his fists and said, "I've seen General Dong!"
"Okay, okay! It's rare that the prefect Xu is willing to lead troops to help, and I believe that the capture of Quyang must be done." Dong Zhuo pretended to ask Xu Ding to pay for it. Once the money was paid, Dong Zhuo warmly introduced:
"Come on everyone, this time the vanguard of breaking the city, Xu Ding, is here."
Xu Ding wanted to smack Dong Zhuo to death, but this guy set the tone of sending him to death when he came up. He really didn't give him a chance to refute or regret it.
But Xu Ding couldn't think so much at this time, because there were two rows of people in Dong Zhuo's tent, and these people were not from the Xiliang Army.
It was the county soldiers who came to support the battle in Xiaquyang, armed with powerful landlords, and of course an acquaintance Xu Ding.
Seeing Xu Ding coming, everyone stood up and greeted him.
The name of a man, the shadow of a tree.
Xu Ding's name is too famous, and Donglai Bing's victorious division is admirable, so most people are extremely polite to Xu Ding.
"Liu Bei of Zhuo County has met Mr. Xu. His name has been admired for a long time. Mr. Xu's achievements are so admirable and enviable. This time, he will rely on Mr. Xu to defeat Quyang." Liu Bei flattered him with a very humble look. .
But both Xu Ding and Dong Zhuo heard Dong Liubei's irony.
Xu Ding did not expect to see Liu Bei here.
This guy Liu Bei actually got under Dong Zhuo's nose.
Could it be that this guy really saved Dong Zhuo as in Romance of the Three Kingdoms.
Just when Xu Ding was curious, Dong Zhuo said:
"Bokang, let me introduce you. This is Liu Xuande, the successor of King Jing of Zhongshan. Xuande is a great talent. He raised troops in Zhuo County to fight against bandits and exterminate bandits. The Yellow Turbans from Youzhou were beaten and fled, and this time they came here from Youzhou to help us attack Xiaquyang together."
You see, it's not that I have no one to use. If you don't help me, some people come to serve as cannon fodder.
Liu Bei has great talent?
Well, this guy does have the supernatural powers of fooling around, even better than Ma Yun.
Xu Ding automatically filtered Dong Zhuo's subtext, because he didn't have the time to talk to Dong Zhuo, let alone be stupid enough to talk to him.
