I have three hundred soldiers, all of whom can warm wine and kill Hua Xiong

Chang'an City.

Dong Zhuo, who was fat, sat on a large chair.

Li Ru, Li Jue, Guo Si, Niu Fu and others stood respectfully in front of Dong Zhuo.

After yawning and stretching, Dong Zhuo looked around at everyone and said, "Just now, Han Sui sent someone to persuade them to surrender."

Dong Zhuo reached out and knocked on the table, and then said: "This time, Han Sui promised me that as long as I bring people to join them, they will make me the governor of Liangzhou afterwards."

After Dong Zhuo finished speaking, Li Jue, Guo Si, Niu Fu and others felt happy at the same time.

However, due to Dong Zhuo's majesty, everyone did not speak freely.

Seeing that everyone was silent and Li Ru frowning, Dong Zhuo stood up and asked Li Ru, "Wen You, what do you think about this matter?"

Li Ru stretched out his hand to straighten his clothes, then took a step forward and whispered: "General, with the rebellion of Ma Teng and Han Sui, the rebel forces are at the peak of their power. In this battle, our troops and horses were severely damaged."

Hearing Li Ru's words, Dong Zhuo raised his brows slightly.

Is Li Ru planning to agree to lead people to join the rebel camp?

Just as Dong Zhuo's thoughts appeared in his mind, he heard Li Ru say from the side: "But the strength of the Han Dynasty is not exhausted. Although Han Sui and others are powerful, they are in danger of being extinguished. You know, your Majesty has already issued an order to merge the governor of the state Ding Yuan." We have already led our troops southward. Moreover, the [-] new troops led by the Hussars General Wei Chu will arrive in Chang'an this afternoon at the latest."

"So, I agree to continue to defend Chang'an."

Dong Zhuo sat back on his chair and fell into deep thought.

Seeing this, Niu Fu stood up and said, "General, I have a different opinion."

Niu Fu and Li Ru were both Dong Zhuo's sons-in-law.

Because Dong Zhuo had no children, Dong Zhuo had high hopes for Niu Fu and Li Ru.

Because of this, the competition between Niu Fu and Li Ru is very fierce.

On the surface, the two seem to have a harmonious relationship.

But secretly, the two have been competing with each other.

When Dong Zhuo nodded slightly, Niu Fu straightened his chest and continued: "Han Sui and others have fifty thousand soldiers and horses gathered at Chang'an City. The Bingzhou Army, plus us and Eight thousand new troops may not be able to defeat Han Sui and others. You know, even Huangfu Song was defeated by Han Sui and others many times not long ago."

"If we follow the imperial court and are defeated again, if we try to stand with Han Sui and others, we will definitely not get the attention of Han Sui and others."

"In addition, the big man's strength is indeed not exhausted now, but as long as we turn to the rebels and fight with the rebels into Luoyang, the big man's strength will be exhausted."

Niu Fu finished speaking, and Li Jue and others nodded at the same time.

Guo Bang couldn't help but stood up and said loudly: "General, we fought with the Yellow Turban Army in Jizhou before, but we lost for a moment, and the court would punish the general. Now we have been fighting for the court for a long time, and the court has not even benefited at all. Give it to us, why should we continue to work for the court?"

"The court's actions are really chilling."

Li Jue also nodded: "The imperial court asked us to obey the orders of the hussar general Wei Chu. As far as I know, Wei Chu is still young. I'm afraid it will be difficult for him to lead us to victory."

"Furthermore, Wei Chu is a member of the general. Even if we win this battle by luck, I am afraid that the benefits of victory in the war will not fall on us. If we are defeated..."

Li Jue didn't finish his words, but Dong Zhuo could understand what Li Jue wanted to express.

Victory will not get the credit you deserve, and defeat will require you to bear responsibilities that you should not bear.

The court was very unfair to Dong Zhuo.

Dong Zhuo's brows sometimes wrinkled and sometimes relaxed. After a long time, Dong Zhuo sighed and said: "It is the imperial court that is sorry for Dong Zhuo, but it is not Dong Zhuo who is sorry for the imperial court."

"The imperial court is unkind, so I have to find my own way out."

Having said this, Dong Zhuo slowly stood up again.

"Order the soldiers to quietly prepare for battle. When Wei Chu leads his troops into Chang'an City, he will immediately capture Wei Chu, make a surprise attack and defeat the new army."

"Han Sui and others think highly of me and promised me to be the governor of Liangzhou. I have to show my respect."

"Eight thousand heads from Wei Chu and the New Army. This gift should be enough."

After hearing Dong Zhuo's words, Niu Fu and others were shocked, but Li Ru and Hua Xiong, who had just returned, frowned slightly at the same time.

The former had an uneasy feeling in his heart, always feeling that Dong Zhuo had chosen the wrong path.

Hua Xiong had witnessed the methods of Wei Chu and the New Army commanders in Luoyang, and Hua Xiong felt that Wei Chu might be a bit difficult to kill.

You must know that Dong Zhuo only had more than [-] troops in Chang'an City.

It would be great if Dong Zhuo could successfully capture and kill Wei Chu.

If the beheading operation fails, the Xiliang army led by Dong Zhuo will fight with the new army.

Even if the Xiliang Army can win, I am afraid that its own strength will be very low.

Dong Zhuo no longer has soldiers and horses, so how can Han Sui and others take Dong Zhuo seriously again.

Thinking of this, Hua Xiong took half a step forward.

He opened his mouth, but finally hung his head.

Under Dong Zhuo, Hua Xiong's status was far inferior to that of Niu Fu, Li Jue, Guo Si and others.

Others were quiet and did not dare to stand up and question Dong Zhuo's decision.

"Chang'an City is ahead."

Wei Chu was riding on a galloping horse, looking up at the city of Chang'an.

Although the Chang'an City Wall is slightly mottled, it is tall and majestic.

The khaki city wall was like a natural chasm lying in front of Wei Chu and the others.

"Gouzi, what do you think of Dong Zhuo's current attitude?"

Hearing Wei Chu's words, Gouzi didn't even think about it and said from the side: "As long as Han Sui and others are smart, they will find ways to win over Dong Zhuo and occupy the powerful city of Chang'an without spending a single soldier."

"If the Han Dynasty were powerful, Dong Zhuo would definitely not dare to have any dissent. But now that the court is weak, Dong Zhuo has a high chance of rebellion."

"Perhaps Dong Zhuo has betrayed the imperial court now and will launch a surprise attack on us just waiting for us to enter Chang'an."

Wei Chu nodded slightly.

Gouzi is becoming more and more shrewd now, and his ideas coincide with Wei Chu's.

"But as long as we can defeat the rebels tonight, Dong Zhuo will not dare to have any dissent."

Hearing Gouzi's words, a sneer flashed across Wei Chu's face.

"If Dong Zhuo had not been disloyal, I would have had no chance to kill him. If I had not killed Dong Zhuo and killed all the powerful families in Liangzhou, how would my father-in-law be able to secure the position of governor of Liangzhou."

Gouzi rolled his eyes and smiled: "In that case, we should make preparations now."

"Well, I'll leave this matter to you."

Dong Zhuo is now fighting a rebellion for the Han Dynasty. Wei Chu cannot kill Dong Zhuo for no reason.

Because doing this will affect the character of the loyal minister of Wei Chu.

But with Gouzi here, Dong Zhuo will be controlled regardless of whether he has different intentions or not.

"We will go back and join the army, then have a good meal and work tonight."

Wei Chu finished speaking, and the much more majestic galloping horse took the initiative to turn around, then turned into a black stream of light and ran away in the distance. In just a few breaths, the galloping horse carried Wei Chu and disappeared from the sight of Niu Shisan and Gouzi. .
