After everyone arrived, they saw Lu Ning's face heavy face. They knew that something must have happened, but they didn't know what was going on. Only Tian Chou was a little clearer in his heart. Lu Ning said to them: "That's the situation, please express your opinions."

After hearing this, Zhang Yang learned about the situation and thought about it and replied, "Lord, I'm afraid we must go to Beijing, so we can only bet on one side, otherwise no matter which side wins, we will not have a good result."

Sima Lang shook his head and said in disapproval: "What if you are wrong? We don't need to ride this muddy water, it's better to protect ourselves. In addition, we don't know much about Luoyang's situation, and we don't know what Luoyang is now."

After thinking for a long time, Tian Chou looked at Lu Ning with his eyes and said, "My lord, you still have to go, but it's just a question of how to go. If you don't go, it's very unfavorable to us. But if we don't know what the situation is, we fall into it head-on, and that's not OK. Maybe we will be bleeding and it won't be worth the loss."

After hearing everyone's words, Gu Yong said, "We can send troops, but the marching speed should be slow so that we can observe the situation at any time. If the situation is not good, our army can return immediately."

Lu Ning looked at everyone and seemed to have agreed to send troops. Lu Ning asked, "What if neither side can win?"

Gao Shun was stunned after hearing this. How could this be possible? He asked quickly: "I can't beat it? Lord, what do you mean?"

Lu Ning smiled and said, "The mantis stalks the cicada, and the oriole is behind."

After hearing Lu Ning's words, Sima Lang asked Lu Ning very angrily: "Brother, do you want to be that yellow bird?"

Lu Ning glared at Sima Lang fiercely, you always think of Lu Ning so sinisterly, it's true that you won't say less.

Lu Ning shook his head and then slowly said, "I'm thinking, but unfortunately we are not strong enough now. I just received a secret report that Dong Zhuo's 200,000 Xiliang Border Defense Forces are gathering, and the target is likely to be Luoyang. With our current strength, we can't fight with Dong Zhuo head-on. Even if we fight for victory, we will not be both defeated. What do we get? We can get a piece of paper and eat it. There are too many jackals and tigers around us, and the Xiongnu Tartars and Xianbei Tartars are eyeing us. What if this wave of Tartar jackals pounced on us? What should we do? Wait for the Tartar cavalry to massacre."

After hearing this, Zhang Yang said, "But lord, if we do not lead our troops into Luoyang, we will give the excuse of disobeying orders and disobeying orders. This is very unfavorable for the lord's future development? I still advocate going to Luoyang."

Gao Shundao: "Lord, we have to send troops no matter what. The decision is in our hands if we fight or not. If not, our army will be there to watch the fun. Anyway, we say that our army cannot figure out the situation and dare not take action easily."

Sima Lang said: "I firmly oppose sending troops. It is not good for us to send troops. Maybe we will get angry. And this is not as good as watching here. How much does it cost to send troops? If you go to the seat to watch, why don't you spend food or grass?"

Lu Ning sighed and said, "Yes, the soldiers must be out. It's just a matter of how our army marched. I think what Yuan Tan said makes sense. We move forward slowly and reconnaissance the situation in Luoyang at any time. Our army can retreat under appropriate circumstances. We do not need to trek into muddy waters. This is of no benefit to us. When our army wants to retreat, as long as our Yanmen in Bingzhou is spread in Luoyang, Yanmen in Bingzhou is attacked by Xianbei Tartars, and there are also Hun troops gathering in Hedong, so that our army can have a reason to withdraw from this muddy water."

After hearing this, Tian Chou thought for a while and said, "Lord, I agree with this method. No matter which side wins in the future, there is nothing to blame for us. After all, facing the attack of the Tartar cavalry, everyone knows what it means, and even more knows that our army is forced by the situation."

Sima Lang, Gu Yong and others agreed.

Lu Ning said again: "Since Luoyang is going to be in chaos, I think no matter which side wins, their goal is to rob a large amount of money and materials from the failed party. Even the palace is robbed, and our army is unable to escape. Our army does not have the ability to protect the palace, nor does it have the ability to influence the development of the situation. But since our army has sent troops, I want to send troops to move the royal family's collection of books back. This is the essence of my Han nationality and the accumulation of thousands of years of hard work. I don't want to see things like Qin Shihuang burning books and burying scholars again.

Especially once Fatty Dong from Xiliang enters Luoyang, I don’t know what will happen. Dong Zhuo’s soldiers are actually a group of soldiers who are worse than bandits. They can only burn, kill, rob, and force the women. They will definitely not protect the royal collection. Although I don’t know a single big word, I still cherish the books. It should be possible for our army to move the royal collection to our Bingzhou for protection, because no one will rob such things at that time. I wonder what everyone has to do?”

After hearing this, Cai Yong said, "Ziyi, if you really preserve the royal books, you will make great contributions to my Han nationality. I support you to move the royal collection back."

Sima Lang, Tian Chou, Zhang Yang, Zhang Liao, Gao Shun, and Ma Jun are all book lovers. Those who disagree, basically agreed with this plan. However, Lu Ning said: "Although everyone agrees, it is the end of April now. I guess the Huns will not miss the opportunity to invade our jurisdiction. After all, we are incompatible with the Tartars. It is estimated that Junyi will also take action in Yanmen and other places. There is no need to worry about Dai County and Shanggu. Zilong and Ziyi will definitely have military actions; and to the west of us are facing the Huns. I suggest that our army should also take the initiative to attack the Huns and adopt guerrilla tactics to eliminate the living forces of the Tartars in the movement, so that they will not have the energy to attack our jurisdiction. Otherwise, if the Huns and Tartars take the initiative to attack us, our army will be very passive, especially the harm to the people, and the impact on our grain production is even more immeasurable."

After hearing this, Sima Lang shook his head and said helplessly: "Brother, you have a good idea, but our army attacks everywhere like this, so many troops are coming. Now there are only more than 40,000 soldiers in Jinyang, and there is no extra force to mobilize."

Zhang Liao said: "Why should we recruit some new recruits?"

When Sima Lang heard this, he immediately shouted: "No, we don't have more money to raise soldiers. Now the troops in our jurisdiction are as high as about 140,000. If there are more, what to eat and what to raise. The cost of raising soldiers is too high. We raise one soldier is equivalent to 50 to 100 soldiers in other places. We can't recruit new soldiers."
