The 215th episode Dong Zhuosheng was suspicious
Luoyang, which was once the most prosperous and wealthy city in the Han Dynasty, has long been destroyed by the Xiliang Army, and there are broken walls everywhere, only Bi Guiyuan, where Dong Zhuo stayed, still maintains its original grace and elegance. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
Hua Xiong's 3,000 soldiers and horses escorted a large number of treasures, livestock, and women...... Slowly entering the inner city, Dong Zhuo currently has about 20,000 troops stationed in Luoyangtun, except for some defenders stationed in dangerous places, all the rest of the horses are gathered outside Bi Guiyuan.
Dong Zhuo slowly walked out of the pavilion, stood on a high platform, and looked down at the "spoils" sent back by Xu Rong, but he didn't expect that the war was only full-term, and Xu Rong achieved great results on the front line - first repelled Sun Jian in Liang County, and now defeated the "thieves" entrenched in the Yangcheng area, and sent back so many war booties, Dong Zhuo's original dissatisfaction with Xu Rong's unauthorized entry into the army flew to the clouds at this time.
"Sangkook!!"
The dense soldiers were like a vast ocean, and the crowd was surging like waves in the sea, scrambling to kneel on the ground, respectfully saluting the middle-aged man on the high platform - at this moment, even the emperor who was the emperor of the Ninety-Five could not compare to this man's dignity.
Even the Yangcheng women who were captured by the Xiliang Army, insulted by the soldiers of the Huaxiong Army along the way, and driven to Luoyang like cattle and sheep, were also full of fear and respect at this time. As soon as this man appeared, the surrounding soldiers saluted him overwhelmingly, what a majestic and majestic man! Such a momentum made these women who originally looked sad, afraid, or numb couldn't help but fall to their knees.
Dong Zhuo had a smile on his face, anyone in such an environment, I was afraid that they would be overjoyed. He was full of ambition, stretched his slightly fat body like a spring breeze, and looked at the faces full of reverence and expectation written in the audience, Dong Zhuo smiled from ear to ear:
"Gentlemen, please rise! Dong Zhuo is not a god, except for Gu's figure, which is probably a little fatter than most of you, there is nothing else special! ”
Dong Zhuo's humorous words caused the soldiers in the audience to smile, and the eyes that looked at Dong Zhuo one by one were also a little more cordial, Dong Zhuo has been in the army for a long time, how to quickly shorten the distance with the soldiers is his strength. Moreover, he is a rather straightforward personality, so his "show" is not fake at all, but can be said to be his true feelings.
"Lone, like you, started as a soldier in the army, and what is Lonely's basis to get to this point? It's this heart! This is a heart that can spare his life for the big man and be brave and loyal! ”
The more excited Dong Zhuo said, his face was red, his voice was very loud, and he didn't seem to care whether his voice would be hoarse or not. In the end, the enthusiasm of the soldiers was almost mobilized by him, and he said in a loud voice: "...... These spoils of war are not taken by Lone, whether it is money, women, cattle and sheep, Lone rewards them all to the soldiers! I also hope that you will work hard, work with Lonely, sweep away the unsubordinate, and correct the world! ”
With so many treasures, Dong Zhuo didn't want any of them, which made all the soldiers stunned on the spot, but then they broke out into earth-shattering cheers:
"Long live Sangkook!"
"Long live Sangkook!"
…………
The soldiers shouted long live, and the originally empty Luoyang was so noisy at this time that people couldn't help but hide their ears. The rejoicing soldiers began to loot the spoils of war, and countless treasures, cattle and sheep were snatched away one by one. Those poor women, who had already been selected like goods by the soldiers who had already robbed the red eyes, and those who dared to resist were cut off by these fanatical soldiers on the spot, and even some generals drew their swords in order to snatch the same slightly beautiful woman, and Xiangguo ordered not to use force, and finally they cruelly divided the woman into two......
At this time, Luoyang City is a paradise for these rough and barbaric soldiers, but it is a hell that countless Yangcheng women will never forget in their hearts.
Dong Zhuo looked at the audience with satisfaction and slowly walked into Bi Guiyuan.
At this time, a lot of the secret sentinels he had already distributed everywhere also returned, and someone immediately told Dong Zhuo what Xu Rong did in Yangcheng and the results of Dongwuyang.
When it was discovered that the "trophies" brought back by Hua Xiong before were all innocent people in Yangcheng.
"Xu Rong dares to deceive Gu?"
Dong Zhuo was furious, and as soon as he lifted the collar of a secret whistle, he jumped like thunder:
"Lone trusts Xu Rong so much, but I didn't expect this person to deceive Lone!"
The sentry was terrified, and then said:
However, then General Xu Rong led his troops to the east, and encountered the men and horses of the Yuzhou Thorn Shi Kong Ling in the dense forest around Dongwuyang, and General Xu Rong led his troops to attack at night, won a complete victory, beheaded more than 8,000 people in battle, captured more than 13,000 people of the Yuzhou army, and also captured Li Min, the Taishou of Yingchuan, and Zhang An, the cavalry captain. Only...... Kong Ling's body has not been found, but there is no news that Kong Ling is still alive. ”
"Oh?"
After Dong Zhuo heard the news of Dongwuyang's victory, his anger calmed down a lot, and he was not so angry about Xu Rong's unauthorized slaughter of the city:
"Li Min and Zhang An have some relationship with Lone, when they were under the account of General He Jin, they had a good relationship with Lone, and they should be summoned to Xu Rong to escort the two of them back to Bi Guiyuan, but don't neglect them."
At this time, Dong Zhuo was very good, and when he came to this point, he found that there were fewer and fewer friends around him, and the ministers of that group were all empty and wrongful to themselves, which made Dong Zhuo feel lonely. Therefore, if he can recruit his old friend into the formation at this time, it will also make him feel relieved.
When the dark whistle heard this, his face turned pale with fright, and his legs weakened, and he knelt down:
"Lord Xiangguo! That Li Min and Zhang An...... They were all killed by General Xu Rong! ”
"Ahh What the? ”
Dong Zhuo shouted, and his already big pair of tiger eyes were even more terrifying at this time:
"How could Xu Rong kill Li and Zhang? You have to talk to Lone in detail, otherwise, Lone will break you into pieces! ”
The dark whistle was so frightened that he didn't even dare to wipe the cold sweat from his face, and he replied tremblingly:
After General Xu Rong captured Li Min and Zhang An, he erected a huge tripod, threw the two of them into the tripod, slowly boiled them with firewood, and burned them to death! And also...... Of the more than 10,000 surrendered troops, General Xu Rong scalded more than 1,000 of them to death with boiling hot oil! The rest were ordered to be buried alive! ”
"How dare you do that!!"
Dong Zhuo was so angry that he clenched his fists and clenched his teeth fiercely: I didn't expect Sima Li to recommend such a vicious person to himself! That's right, Xu Rong has indeed given himself a lot of good strategies these days, but now, he drowned thousands of soldiers in Heyangjin, which has already cast a shadow on his reputation as Dong Zhuo. He continued to let Xu Rong lead the troops for the sake of Xu Rong's sake, but he didn't expect that Xu Rong immediately created the "Yangcheng Massacre", and once again made Dong Zhuo have a black pot on his back, not to mention, using such cruel means to torture and kill those who have surrendered, isn't this to force everyone in the world to denounce himself? Could it be that Xu Rong's real purpose is to ruin his reputation and leave a stench for 10,000 years?
"Pass Gu's order, immediately requisition Xu Rong back to Beijing, the troops that were previously allocated to Xu Rong, and after Li Dao returns to Luoyang, take Hua Xiong to take it over! If Xu Rong dares to disobey, he will be arrested and returned to Beijing! ”
"But...... Xiangguo, at this time, General Li Dao is still in the north, and it will take at least a month to wait for him to return...... Moreover, at this time, I heard that General Xu Rong had already led the army to confront Sun Jian in Liangdong, and the troops of Lord Hu Zhen and Master Li Meng also went to Liangdong, and they were in a hurry...... I'm afraid that Sangkook's order will not be able to convey the past. ”
Dong Zhuo's face was gloomy, if it weren't for his good health, if he was replaced by a person of his age, he would have been so angry that he would have vomited blood: "Then quickly order Li Dao to return to Beijing!" ”
Hu Zhen and Lu Bu are in Luyang, Li Meng is in Liangxian, and Sun Jian is in Liangdong, the battlefield situation is complicated, and it is not appropriate to remove the main general for the time being. Dong Zhuo secretly made a small calculation: let Xu Rong deal with Sun Jian first, wait until the situation in the Luyang area is stabilized, and then let Li Dao remove Xu Rong, as soon as Xu Rong returns to him, he will take it immediately, and then behead him to thank the world!
Alas, what Dong Zhuo regrets most now is that he did not place a smart-minded henchman in Xu Rong's army, so that at this time, he couldn't come up with a general who could intercept Xu Rong in the camp on the spot. Although Fan Chou is loyal and brave, his mind is too simple, if he gives him an order, he is afraid that he will be held hostage by the cunning Xu Rong.
At this time, Lang Zhongling Li Ru suddenly whispered to Dong Zhuo:
"Xiangguo, don't you think there's something else going on in this matter?"
Dong Zhuo turned his head, looked at Li Ru in a daze, and asked:
"How's that going wrong?"
Li Ru spread out the map he got during the military meeting and said slowly:
"After General Xu Rong left Luoyang, he went all the way to Yangcheng, and the encounter with Sun Jian seemed to be just because Sun Jian suddenly appeared in Liang County and blocked General Xu Rong's way. Later, the lord ordered that the troops should not stay away from Si Li, but Xu Rong did not listen, and continued to march until he reached Yangcheng! ”
"Hmm...... So indeed, ...... Suspicious. ”
Dong Zhuo's eyes stared viciously at the locations of Yangcheng and Dongwuyang that Li Ru pointed to in his hand.
"Your Majesty still remembers that General Xu Rong seems to have been originally from Xuansu County, and Li Min and Zhang An, who were killed, were also stationed in Xuanwu County for a period of time before rebelling against Liu Yi......"
"Oh!"
Dong Zhuo suddenly realized:
"Could it be that Xu Rong just took refuge in Yu Gu for revenge?"
Li Ru narrowed his eyes slightly:
"Yes or no, Lord Xiangguo sent someone to Liaodong to find out."
Dong Zhuo listened and nodded slowly:
"Yang Ding! Immediately send a secret sentry to Xuanwu County to investigate Xu Rong's background! ”
"Yes! Subordinates obeyed. ”
Dong Zhuo's heart was bent, and Yang Ding came out.
Not long after, someone came to report: "Princess Wannian has been escorted to Luoyang, how will Lord Xiangguo be placed?" ”
Dong Zhuo pursed his lips, he now has a high status, the princesses and palace maids in the palace, but anyone with a slight appearance, has been ruined by him, and Liu Ying, the princess of Wannian, heard early in the morning that her appearance is mediocre, and now she is still several months pregnant, and she has given birth to a child, Dong Zhuo naturally can't raise any interest, and remembering that Yangcheng seems to have been slaughtered by his subordinate Xu Rong, a trace of guilt rose in his heart, so he waved his hand wistfully:
"After all, she is a royal princess, arrange more subordinates and maidservants, eat and drink, and wait for the war to stabilize, and then return to Chang'an with Lone."
"Yes!"
