Lu Bu’s Life Simulator

Chapter 12 Reversal

"Xiangguo, relying on his own favor, Lu Bu has openly contradicted the last general several times since he left Luoyang. At Yiqueguan, he even defied the military order and refused to fight. As a result, our army was insufficient. Defeated." In the prime minister's mansion, Hu Zhen knelt on the ground, crying to Dong Zhuo.

Dong Zhuo knelt on the seat, twisting his body impatiently. It wasn't that he didn't believe it. After all, Hu Zhen had been with him for some years. Compared to Lv Bu who had just been drawn over, he naturally trusted Hu Zhen more.

It's just that he is no longer as majestic as when he was young, and his body is fat, and he will feel uncomfortable when he kneels and sits for a long time, but Hu Zhen comes to cry from time to time, which makes Dong Zhuo grow impatient.

After all, he is also a military general, crying three times a day, what kind of trouble is this? Besides, he managed to get Lu Bu over, even at the expense of giving away his own red rabbit and BMW. At this time, is it possible that he wants to kill the other party? You don't have the ability to restrain people, and you don't know how to coax people. Now you want me to make the decision for you. Do you really think Dong Zhuo is an idiot, and you can get away with crying a few times? Haven't you been a fool for so many years?

"General Hu, Xiangguo already knows that you are tired from the journey, so go back and rest." Li Ru beside Dong Zhuo naturally saw Dong Zhuo's impatience, and advised Hu Zhen, some things, maybe the first time It will cause people to empathize with you, but if you talk too much, it will backfire. This is also the case for Hu Zhen, who doesn't know how to file a complaint. Who can be fooled by these words back and forth?

"The last general was not for himself, but just thinking about Hua Xiong and those innocent soldiers who died in battle under his command, his heart ached and he couldn't sleep at night, vowing to seek justice for them!" Hu Zhen cried.

"Okay, you go back and rest first, I already know about this." Dong Zhuo got up with his hands on the table, his legs were already numb, he saw what Hu Zhen was about to say, but saw a soldier rushing towards him .

"Report~"

"What's the matter?" Dong Zhuo frowned, he was full of bad things from the moment he opened his eyes, especially Hu Zhen's noisy back and forth, which made him really irritated, and his voice was a bit fierce at the moment.

"Returning to Xiangguo, the people of Yang were victorious. Lu Qidu went to Songshan to kill Sun Jian, and his two generals Han Dang and Cheng Pu were also beheaded. Now the Jiangdong Army has completely retreated. Now Lu Qidu has brought Sun Jian's body and is waiting for him. Into the city."

"Okay!" Dong Zhuo didn't care that Hu Zhen was still there, he slapped the table and said with a smile: "Feng Xian is worthy of being my unparalleled general, and the Jiangdong tiger is nothing more than that!"

Hu Zhen's face was ashen, and he got up and said: "It must be a lie, then Lu Bu has less than a thousand troops, how can he break the Jiangdong army?"

"The general's words are wrong." Li Ru said with a smile: "The victory in the battlefield is not as simple as a competition of soldiers and horses. I heard that General Lu used to win more with less when he was in the frontier fortress. Although the Jiangdong soldiers were brave , but not necessarily more fierce than barbarians in the grassland."

Hu Zhen just didn't believe it, and he didn't want to believe it. He was crying at Dong Zhuo just now and complained that Lu Bu didn't obey the general's order, which led to the defeat of the three armies, but what happened? Four thousand of my own people were beaten and fled in embarrassment by Sun Jian, and more than a thousand people from Lu Bu broke through Jiangdong. What kind of scene will it be if it is heard by others?

As an incompetent general, Lu Bu must have expected that he would be defeated, so he did not go with him, and he would become a stepping stone for Lu Bu to become famous. How could this make him reconciled?

It’s useless just not being reconciled, Dong Zhuo has no time to care about his thoughts at the moment, and immediately ordered: “Go and tell Fengxian, come to the Prime Minister’s Mansion first after entering the city, you have made great achievements in this battle, and you should be rewarded!”

Sun Jian is known as the Tiger of Jiangdong, and he is also a powerful army in the alliance of princes. Dong Zhuo once secretly contacted Sun Jian, hoping that Sun Jian would accept the imperial court's order, turn out of the alliance and serve the imperial court, but Sun Jian flatly refused. Now Lu Bu beheaded Sun Jian. Yu Gong had frustrated the morale of the princes' allied forces, and privately, he had vented his anger for Dong Zhuo, so how could he not like it?

"Here!" The soldier agreed, turned and left.

Hu Zhen stood there, a little embarrassed. He didn't know whether to leave or stay. After thinking about it, he should leave. Although he felt a little embarrassed, if he faced Lu Bu, it would only make him more embarrassed. He got up and said: " Xiangguo, I will retire!"

"Yeah." Dong Zhuo glanced at him. Now that Lv Bu's beheading of Sun Jian is against the rules, but Hu Zhen defeated Lv Bu and won a big victory. He already used practical actions to tell everyone that Hu Zhen decided to make a mistake or gave an absurd order. As the two broke up unhappy, what Hu Zhen said before naturally became untenable.

But after all, he was his confidant, and he couldn't let him be too shameless, so Dong Zhuo pretended to forget what he had sued Lu Bu before, and let him leave, which also saved him some face.

Hu Zhen got Dong Zhuo's permission, and left the prime minister's mansion as if fleeing quickly. Li Ru looked at Hu Zhen's back, shook his head and sighed, "My lord, although these people are all fighting with you all the way, but up to now, The lord has already taken control of the court, these old people certainly cannot be treated slowly, but it is also time to appoint some talented people."

Now Dong Zhuojun's political structure is dominated by the Xiliang Army, which was of course no problem before, but as the power grows in the future, whether it is the court or the army, it is necessary to use more capable people Forget it, otherwise, if the employment still depends on seniority in the future, it would be trivial for Xiang Hu Zhen to be shabby by Lu Bu, and he might be directly ostracized. At that time, it will intensify the contradictions between these old and new generals, which is not good for the overall situation.

Dong Zhuo nodded, he also understood Li Ru's questions, but those generals in the army had been with him for half their life, and now they were going to be rewarded for their merits, but they were gradually marginalized, which made Dong Zhuo somewhat unbearable.

"Let's see Fengxian first, and we'll discuss this matter later. Fengxian has made great contributions this time, so Sun Jian is also a prefect after all. Wenyou, how do you think this reward will be raised?" Dong Zhuo changed the subject.

Hearing this, Li Ru naturally knew that Dong Zhuo was still procrastinating. He sighed in his heart, and after thinking for a while, "General Lu is a newcomer after all, and he was promoted to General Zhonglang after he had failed to achieve an inch of merit before, and he was also named Marquis of Duting. It makes others feel angry, but if you don't reward it, it will easily chill people's hearts. From Confucianism's point of view, you can reward brocade, fine wine, or take another empty job, what do you think, my lord?"

Dong Zhuo stroked his beard and thought for a while, "Is it too stingy?"

"My lord, the war is still going on now, and the rebels in the Kanto region have not yet retreated. There will be more battles to be fought in the future. If there are too many seals at this time and he is promoted too fast, not only will the generals be dissatisfied, but General Lu will also be sealed soon." Nothing to seal." Li Ru said in a deep voice.

"Forget it, just like what Wen You said, tell people to prepare the goods."

"Ru will do it." Li Ru agreed, turned and left...
