Dong Zhuo smiled and said: "All aspects of this plan were arranged by him. How could he have any different intentions?"

Li Ru frowned and said: "I'm just afraid that he wanted to take refuge with Yuan Shao from the beginning, and what he is doing now is just using us as a springboard to win Yuan Shao's favor..."

Dong Zhuo said impatiently: "Li Ru, why are you so suspicious?"

Li Ru said: "We don't know the details of Luo Qi at all, so we really have to guard against him."

Dong Zhuo waved his sleeves and said: "This matter has been implemented, you don't need to say anything!"

Li Ru could only bow and respond, sighing secretly in his heart.

Dong Zhuo remembered something and said: "According to the previous plan, while we are setting up traps to deal with Yuan Shao, the move to the city still needs to be carried out. Now that the pursuers have been defeated, make arrangements to evacuate as soon as possible!"

Li Ru cupped his hands and said, "My son-in-law understands."

Luoyang, outside the city.

Luo Qi and Yuan Shao galloped out of Luoyang and saw the defeated Yuan army gathering in ants.They were originally scheduled to respond at any time at the city gate, but unexpectedly they were driven back by Dong Zhuo's ambush.Now Jushou gathered his troops and was preparing to rush into the city to rescue Yuan Shao.Bayi Chinese website

When Jushou saw Yuan Shao, he hurriedly stepped forward to greet him: "Fortunately, my lord is fine. It's really a blessing from God!"

Yuan Shao grabbed Jushou and sighed: "I regret not listening to public opinion and leading to this."

Jushou said with tears in his eyes: "My lord is fine, everything is fine."

Yuan Shao pulled Luo Qi over and said with a smile: "I can only escape today because of Luo Qi's help, otherwise I would have been buried in the sea of ​​fire and never see the public again."

Luo Qi cupped his hands and said, "I'm ashamed."

Yuan Shao said: "Master Luo has great talents and strategies. I wonder what his plans are in the future?"

Luo Qi smiled and said: "To be honest, my master is a disciple of Shui Jing. I have been out of the mountain recently to find a master, so that I can rule the country and become famous in the world."

Yuan Shao's eyes lit up and he said, "I wonder who is the master of your heart?"

Luo Qi no longer hesitated, turned over and knelt down and said: "The fourth and third princes of the Yuan Alliance are so powerful that they are all over the world. The world agrees. I have always admired him endlessly. I am willing to be the dog and horse of Mr. Yuan."

Yuan Shao personally helped Luo Qi up and said happily: "Now that you are helping the Yuan family, why should we worry about Luoyang's defeat?"

Luo Qi cupped his hands and said, "Thank you, Lord, for your appreciation."

Yuan Shao nodded with satisfaction, then thought of the Zhen family, gritted his teeth and said, "If the Zhen family could be so loyal, I wouldn't have been defeated in such an embarrassing situation. I am lucky enough to survive today. I will definitely eradicate them when I turn around!"

Luo Qi said: "I have something to say, I don't know whether I should say it or not."

Yuan Shao said: "You saved me from a desperate situation. Your kindness and affection are far beyond ordinary monarchs and ministers. Why should I be so polite? If you have something to say, it doesn't matter."

Luo Qi said: "Actually, I don't think the Zhen family intends to frame the master."

Yuan Shao snorted: "If it weren't for them, I would definitely not go into the dangerous place personally. There is no doubt that they have joined forces with the Dong thieves. It will be difficult to eliminate the hatred in my heart until they are eliminated!"

Luo Qi shook his head and said: "The Zhen family is based in Hebei, how dare they offend the Yuan family so easily. They must have intended to please their lord, but they could only fall into the trap of the Dong thief. If they were punished for this, they would be disappointed and would only stop the wise men in the world. ...Please, my lord, think twice.”

Yuan Shao looked at Jushou and said, "What do you think?"

Jushou said quickly: "I have the same thoughts as Mr. Luo. I hope that my lord will temporarily calm down his thunderous anger, comfort the Zhen family with gold and silk, and win over the hearts of the world."

Yuan Shao thought for a while and sighed: "Then as you said, let's spare the Zhen family this time."

Luo Qi cupped his hands and said, "My lord is wise."

Yuan Shao straightened his robes and said, "Let's go back to the coalition camp now, and then discuss with the other princes what to do next."

"The minister waits for orders."

Coalition station, jujube.

Cao Cao took the lead to go out of the tent and stood in front of Yuan Shaoma. "I saw the fire in Luoyang and Yuan Gong left the camp. I was expecting something unexpected. I was about to organize my troops and go to meet him. Fortunately, Yuan Gong returned safely. It's a great day. !”

Yuan Shao smiled and said: "This alliance leader is in such a sorry state that I almost never see Brother Meng De."

Cao Cao said: "Since we have already fought against the Dong thief, how can we know the true strength of the enemy's army?"

Yuan Shao replied: "Our army fought hard with Dong Zhuo before we could defeat him. Now Dong Zhuo has fled in panic and will no longer occupy Luoyang."

Cao Cao's eyes lit up: "Since the Dong thief has retreated, why not pursue him at the beginning?"

Yuan Shao said: "The soldiers are all exhausted and it will be unfavorable to fight again, so we have the right to come back and rest and reorganize."

Cao Cao looked up at Luoyang and saw blazing fire. He couldn't help but sigh: "The Dong thief has rebelled against the country. It's so abominable. Today, God will help our coalition forces. The Dong thief escaped. If we don't take advantage of the situation to pursue him, how long will it take?" ?”

Yuan Shao laughed and said: "The Dong thief has escaped and there is no danger. Why should Meng De be so worried?"

Cao Cao frowned and said, "In that case, I will rest in the camp for the time being. I will lead my troops to go and kill Dong Zhuo without leaving any trace behind!"

Luo Qi sat upright on the horse and sighed slightly: "Mr. Cao, please be patient."

Cao Cao raised his eyebrows and said, "What's the matter with you?"

Luo Qi cupped his hands and said: "Although Dong Zhuo abandoned Luoyang, he has not yet been defeated. They know that the Kwantung Allied Forces are eyeing them, and there will be heavy troops behind them when they retreat. If Cao Cao attacks hastily, there will be a hard battle, which is really unwise."

Cao Cao looked up to the sky and smiled: "My dear friend, I have good intentions, but I, Cao Cao, am not a cowardly person!"

When Luo Qi saw Cao Cao's high spirits, he stopped talking and watched his figure gradually go away. After gathering his troops and heading west quickly, Luo Qi couldn't help but sigh slightly in his heart.

Yuan Shao snorted coldly: "Since you don't listen to good advice, I will let you go and ask for trouble."

West of Luoyang, in front of the woods.

Cao Cao led his troops in a hurry and suddenly saw a scholar standing in front of him.

The scholar was wearing a Confucian shirt and had a face as gentle as jade. When he saw the sergeant in front of him still looking calm, he greeted him with a smile and said, "Sure enough, Duke Cao is here to pursue Dong Zhuo. I am deeply moved by such high righteousness!"

Cao Cao reined in his horse and frowned: "You scholar, why don't you get out of the way quickly? Don't delay our army's progress."

The scholar cupped his hands and said: "Although Duke Cao is loyal, he still needs to think twice before doing anything. There must be an ambush hidden in Dong Zhuo's evacuation this time, so Duke Cao needs to be careful."

Cao Cao said coldly: "Could it be that you want to persuade me to return to the army?"

The scholar smiled and said, "If I say this, I'm afraid I will be the first one to be killed by Duke Cao, and I will have to bear the name of Dong Zhuo's lobbyist until my death. Isn't this too unfair?"

Cao Cao frowned and said, "Then what do you want?"

The scholar smiled and said: "I am here to persuade Duke Cao to march forward and pursue the Dong thief quickly."

Cao Cao laughed and said, "You were the one who warned me of the ambush, and you were the one who advised me to rush in. If you have anything to say, just say it directly, don't waste my time!"

The scholar said: "Gong Cao is too weak now. If he wants to become strong quickly, he must first accept the popularity of the world and use the people's support as the basis for development. Although pursuing Dong Zhuo will definitely result in the loss of troops, Cao Gong's loyalty will be famous all over the world. It’s really a good deal.”

Cao Cao pondered for a moment, raised his eyebrows and said, "Who are you?"

The scholar lifted his robe and bowed to the ground: "Xun Yu, a disciple of Xia Shuijing sect, came here to serve Duke Cao."

Cao Cao was startled and asked in surprise: "Are you the Wang Zuoxunyu who was rumored a few months ago?"

Xun Yu said with a smile: "I am the one who is here."
