Sure enough, Dong Zhuo paused and continued:

"Amin is now in Luoyang, and Ayue in the camp needs to take charge of the troops, and he is the clan of the clan after all. I want you and Huang'er to go to Liangzhou. Wenyou, are you willing?"

Li Ru's heart was turbulent, but his face was still calm. Dong Zhuo meant that his brother Dong Min was now running and contacting him in Luoyang. Although Dong Yue in the army was a member of Dong Zhuo, he was a distant relative and alienated clan after all. He was in charge of the army like Niu Fu and could not leave easily. Therefore, the people around him who were suitable for him at the moment were Li Ru and his nephew Dong Huang. He sent Li Ru to Liangzhou to gather people and make arrangements for him in advance, which was indeed the best candidate for the moment.

Li Ru knew that Dong Zhuo's hometown in Lintao is now in the situation of Si Chen. No matter the constant wars along the way, after returning to Lintao, on the one hand, he had to deal with the questioning of the old lady of the Dong family, and he had to devote his energy to deal with the arrogant and cruel young lady of the Dong family. In addition, Dong Huang was mediocre, and he had to do everything himself and had troubles. It was not like Dong Zhuo's trust and delegating power in the Dong camp, and he could do it himself. This errand was really difficult to handle.

Unfortunately, since Dong Zhuo has named Li Ru, although he was asking, he obviously wanted Li Ru to do it himself. Li Ru knew Dong Zhuo's temperament well. Once someone disobeyed his wishes, he would definitely change his color and get angry, causing the disobedient people to pay a heavy price.

Li Ru was unwilling to touch Dong Zhuo's angry bad intentions. He quickly kept saying a word to take on this difficult task. When Dong Zhuo saw Li Ru knowing his opinion, he laughed happily. While smoothing his beard, he encouraged his think tank.

After some great encouragement, Li Ru finally returned the bill and left.

After leaving Dong Zhuo's tent, Li Ru stood in the open space outside the tent and breathed a long sigh. After analyzing the current situation in the court and planning the next plan for Dong Zhuo, he took on another difficult task. It is sometimes very difficult for those who work hard to control people. Li Ru felt that he was a little tired at the moment. He suppressed the tiredness in his mind and walked towards his military tent.

···

"The chief clerk, Xu, the army's captain, came to visit!"

When Li Ru returned to his military tent, he finally couldn't help feeling tired, so he lay on the desk piled with military documents and took a nap. Unfortunately, he had just fallen asleep, and the sound of the minor officials under the tent sounded outside the tent.

Li Ru was suddenly awakened, his face was unpredictable, and he was about to get angry, but when he heard clearly that it was "Xiao Ziwei" and his tiredness suddenly became clear. He quickly tidied up his clothes and came out to greet him.

There is no one else in Dong Zhuo's army. Only Xu Rong, who had just defended Chen Cangcheng not long ago and made the first contribution to the army. Although Li Ru was trusted by Dong Zhuo, he served as the "Chief's Register" and "Join the Army", he was able to speak out on both military and political aspects. He was also Dong Zhuo's confidant in planning and planning. Dong Zhuo almost obeyed him.

However, Li Ru also had his own shortcomings. He was alone in the army, never in charge of the army, and had no chance to lead the army and make meritorious contributions. Therefore, there were no other trusted subordinates or generals in the army to help him. Previously, he wanted to conquer the captives of the Liangzhou rebels, and among them, he had the intention to cultivate several military abdomen for himself. Now Xu Rong, who had never had a personal relationship with him, suddenly came, which had to attract Li Ru's attention.

Speaking of which, Xu Rong was indeed a great help Li Ru planned to win over. Li Ru, who was alone and outside the situation, said that bystanders were clear. He could see clearly that in Dong Zhuo's army, in addition to Niu Fu, Dong Yue, and Dong Huang, there were also the Liangzhou general faction formed by Li Jue, Guo Si, Zhang Ji and others, as well as the faction headed by Xu Rong. The rest, such as Duan Wei, Fan Chou and others, were either Mingzhe protecting themselves or Dong Zhuo's pure confidants.

Like Dong Yue, Niu Fu, and Dong Huang are Dong Zhuo's relatives, and Li Ru can't win over them. Like Li Jue, Guo Si and others, there are many generals and officials in Liangzhou in the army, and they are mixed and complicated, and Li Ru is not easy to win over them. On the contrary, Xu Rong himself was born in Liaodong. Although he has followed Dong Zhuo for many years and has made many military achievements, he cannot integrate into other factions for various reasons. In addition, because of his repeated merits, he stands out and has a unique momentum.

Li Ru relied on Dong Zhuo, and in the future, Dong Zhuo entered the court and was at the highest position. Li Ru could naturally rise, but if he wanted to go further, he would not be without helpers in the army. Although Xu Rong made many military achievements, compared with relatives such as Dong Yue or Li Jue, Liang people such as Guo Si, they were weak after all. The two had the potential to complement each other and help each other. Today, Xu Rong's visit was a good opportunity for Li Ru to test his feelings.

At that moment, Li Ru went out to celebrate Xu Rong with a burial. The two of them laughed a few times, and Li Ru invited Xu Rong to enter the tent and had a chat. Xu Rong had the same intention, so the two of them entered the tent one after another, and sat down with the guest of the master. Then a minor official presented hot soup, and then tidied it up before leaving the tent to wait for the order.

Xu Rong was strong, wearing armor and sword, and dressed as a military general, but he was not a pure martial artist like Guo Si and Fan Chou. He was very knowledgeable about literature and had read some military books and knew the importance and ability of the staff and civil servants. He knelt on the table and saw the pile of bamboo slips that had just been sorted out by the clerks beside the desk, and he couldn't help but sigh and praise:

"Li Zhuzhu Counselors the military machine and handles documents and documents. When looking at the pile of bamboo slips in the account, it can be seen that Li Zhuzhu is a diligent and capable official. It is a blessing that there is a chief clerk in the army!"

"Haha, Xu Zhengwei praised it. Ru is just a mediocre official, with inferior talent, so he is diligent. However, Xu Zhengwei, both civil and military, was in charge of Chen Cang City, commanded him as if he was determined, and trapped a hundred thousand troops in a city. Later, he even showed his power to defeat the enemy and pursued a hundred miles. The resources of these famous generals are a blessing in the army, and a blessing in the lord!"

After the two sat down, they greeted each other and praised each other. The atmosphere was harmonious and there was a lot of fun talking to old friends.

But Xu Rong was a fierce general on the battlefield. After a greeting, he imagined that he would quote classics like a great scholar and a famous scholar and explain the truth and talk about the literati who explained the truth. After searching, he found that he was not close to Li Ru on weekdays. Apart from military tactics and strategies, he had no words to talk to Li Ru. He could only smile, hide the embarrassment in his heart, change the topic, and talk about his real purpose of visiting Li Ru today.

"Zhengbu Li, I wonder if you still remember this man Yan Yan in the prisoner camp?"

"oh?"

Although Li Ru knew that Xu Rong was not visiting for nothing, he did not expect that the other party came to find him for the sake of the prisoner camp. He subconsciously responded, and remembered the instructions that Dong Zhuo had spoken in his own tent just now. He was alert in his heart. After thinking about it, he asked back:
