Chapter 25 Dong Zhuo: Confer the title of Marquis on Hua Xiong!
“Hahaha…Okay!”
Gong Wei is worthy of being my general, he fought brilliantly in this battle!"
Here in Luoyang, Dong Zhuo laughed heartily.
Looking at Bao Xin’s head in front of me, I felt particularly familiar.
The dead Bao Xin is the good Bao Xin.
"Gong Wei fought this battle beautifully. He actually killed all the princes in the battle, showing the prestige of my father-in-law."
A middle-aged man dressed as a scholar stood next to him, twirling his beard and smiling . He spoke in a gentle and somewhat slow voice.
Even now, when we are talking about these exciting things, it is still the same.
This middle-aged scholar was none other than Dong Zhuo's son-in-law Li Ru, also known as Li Wenyu.
Dong Zhuo was tall and fat, with a dark complexion, and sitting there he looked like a giant Buddha.
Li Ru was just the opposite, he was thin and had a pale complexion.
Dong Zhuo alone is better than four of them.
The two of them are in the same room, which gives a great visual impact.
One fat, one thin, one black, one white, a bit like the black and white evil spirits...
"How do you think we should reward Gong Wei?"
Dong Zhuo looked at Li Ru and moved his legs to make himself more comfortable.
At this time, there were only him and Li Ru in the room, with no outsiders present, so Dong Zhuo naturally didn't need to pay too much attention to his image.
Just half lying on the bed.
Being a fat man and a military general, he deeply hated kneeling.
Li Ru smiled and twirled his beard, and said slowly: "Father-in-law, I feel that Gong Wei has won many victories, killed many generals and captured many flags, and now he has even killed Jibei Xiang Bao Xin.
He dealt a severe blow to the Kanto coalition forces.
Naturally, it needs to be rewarded well.
It is not an exaggeration to confer a title of nobility.
But... Hua Xiong also lost his deputy general Hu Zhen and deputy general Li Su one after another.
Hu Zhen is easier to deal with, as he is originally from Xiliang. But Li Su’s identity is a bit complicated.
He is from Bingzhou and is a fellow countryman of Lu Fengxian..."
Dong Zhuo shook his head and said, "How can there be no casualties in war?
Once on the battlefield, no one can guarantee that they will come out safe and sound.
If you are afraid of death, don't go to war.
My soldiers in Xiliang can die, but the soldiers in Bingzhou can’t die?
I recruited them to use them for my own benefit, not to serve them as a sacrifice.”
Li Ru twisted his beard and said with a smile on his face: "Father-in-law is right, but we still need to be careful.
Things are different now than before.
My father-in-law has come to this point. From now on, he can no longer only employ people from Liangzhou. He also needs to absorb and employ people from other places. Only in this way can he maintain his position for a long time.
We should pay attention to Bingzhou.
Otherwise, all your efforts to recruit them would be in vain..."
Dong Zhuo nodded: "Then according to your opinion, what should we do?"
Li Ru twisted his beard, paused for a while, and said slowly: "I think that Hua Xiong can be made Marquis of Sishui Pavilion, but the rewards such as money should not be too much.
Li Su's family needs to be well settled and given more rewards."
Seeing Li Ru's slow pace, Dong Zhuo almost couldn't suppress his temper.
If it weren't for the fact that he was his son-in-law and was giving him advice at the moment, Dong Zhuo would have beaten him long ago!
"Then let's do this."
Dong Zhuo nodded and said, "Gong Wei said that some soldiers were lost, and there are no deputy generals left at Sishui Pass.
He wants us to send 5,000 soldiers and let Xu Rong be his deputy general. What do you think? "
Li Ru thought for a while and nodded, "Sishui Pass is an important place. Although Xu Rong is not your direct descendant and is from Liaodong, he is also from the military and has his own way of fighting.
It would be a good idea to send it over.
With Hua Xiong and the other two here, Sishui Pass can be absolutely safe."
…
"This Hua Manzi! What good luck!"
In a place in Luoyang City, a tall man spoke this in an angry tone.
As the voice fell, a streak of light flashed by.
The next moment, there was a bang, and a Fang Tian painted halberd stabbed fiercely into a tree in front of him.
The tree was as thick as a bowl, but it was pierced directly by the Fang Tian Hua Ji!
The bare branches rustled.
"These should have all belonged to me, but that Hua Man took my position as the vanguard!"
Lu Bu said angrily.
While saying these words, he held the pole of Fang Tian Huaji with one hand and shook it left and right with force. The Huaji that had pierced the tree trunk began to swing, and the wood, which was as thick as a bowl, broke with a sound as if it was made of paper !
"Brother-in-law, this Hua Xiong is really abominable. He actually dared to snatch the credit from you!
Sooner or later, he will be punished! ! "
A general nearby echoed.
This man was the cousin of Lu Bu’s wife Yan and Lu Bu’s brother-in-law Wei Xu.
Just as he was saying this, a soldier suddenly came hurriedly reporting that the family of Li Su, the General of the Tiger Guards, had come with his personal guards to pay a visit to the Marquis of Duting.
Lu Bu was a little surprised when he heard this.
Then he said, "Let them come to see me."
“They came here to ask you, Fengxian, to make the decision for them.
Fengxian, you need to think about this matter carefully.
If the only request is for more help from the Prime Minister and some benefits, I can agree to it. We are from the same hometown, and this is the right thing to do.
If it involves other things, it is better to think twice before you act and not agree to it immediately."
As Lu Bu was on his way to the reception room, another general beside him spoke up.
"Wenyuan, you are right."
Lu Bu nodded.
Seeing that Lu Bu had listened to him, Zhang Liao said no more .
A moment later, I met Li Su's family.
It was a woman, with a boy of about thirteen or fourteen years old, and there were several soldiers in armor beside them.
"Marquis Duting, please make the decision for my humble husband!"
As soon as she saw Lu Bu, the woman fell to her knees crying...
