Chapter 53: Ambition and Ambition
In the name of controlling the order of Chang'an and guarding against thieves, Li Dao, Guo Yan, and Fan Chou divided their troops to control Chang'an City.
Among them, Li Wei had the most soldiers and horses, and controlled the defense of the palace in the east and south of the city and the region, while Fan Chou and Guo Yan occupied the west and middle of the city.
However, Dong Bai and Tong Yuan's soldiers and horses firmly controlled the three gates in the north of the city, the east and west markets and the treasury, and did not let others touch them.
Tong Yuan thought to himself that his current strength was only one-tenth of the opponent's, and it was absolutely impossible to stay in Chang'an to carry it, and he had to occupy a piece of land that could be developed, so that it would be convenient for him to give full play to the knowledge and historical advantages of future generations.
Why don't you sell Li Dao and other favors in the future, hand over the land in the city to Li Dao, and wait until Li Guo's rebellion to pick peaches, wouldn't it be beautiful to control the Son of Heaven a year earlier than Cao Mengde.
On Lu Bu's side, he was supported by Zhang Liao's 2,000 cavalry and successfully rescued his family. Gao Shun led the trapping camp and a few soldiers and horses to look at the Luocheng Gate, which controlled the northeast of Chang'an City, and at this moment converged with Lu Bu and was about to retreat.
Lu Bu was angry and said, "What a shame today! Since you and Gao Shun have already arrived with our troops, why don't you follow me into the city to take revenge?! ”
He was humiliated by Dong Bai, Hu Zhen and others, and of course he didn't want to give up Chang'an City like this.
Zhang Liao persuaded loudly: "Lord, now is not the time for revenge, the Xiliang army has as many as 100,000 people and occupies the city. We only had 3,000 cavalry, and we were still exhausted from the night's journey. I've just taken advantage of the momentum to break through the enemy army, so it's best to leave for now. ”
Lu Bu's face suddenly showed a thick sense of grievance. However, Yan's family, Diao Chan and Lu Lingqi and other family members have been rescued, and they have not suffered any losses, so they left directly with Gao Shun, Zhang Liao, and these three thousand elite horses.
is also because of the influence of Tong Yuan and others, Lu Bu's movements are not the same as history. He did not join Yuan Shu first, but after converging with the brigade and the state army, he crossed the Yellow River east and entered the eastern region of Bingzhou through Gushang County and other places, and gradually returned to the historical development trajectory in the future.
......
On the following May 25, Dong Bai and the others beheaded Wang Yun's henchmen, Huang Wan, the lieutenant of Sili, and Wang Hong, the right Fufeng.
He rushed to Hewu, two hundred miles away, and buried Dong Zhuo and his clansmen. As for the impressive storm in the history books, the coffin did not happen because it took Chang'an ahead of time.
After returning to Chang'an, Dong Bai specially arranged the family's funeral affairs and did not participate in the division of the results.
The other generals of the Xiliang Army couldn't wait to share the results. Each of them wanted to be a general, Guo Yan was the most shameless, he was fighting to be a general, and he was ridiculed by everyone. Guo Yan was so annoyed that he almost caught fire with each other.
In the end, Li Dao and Tong Yuan presided over justice, and in addition to the leading commanders, each ministry sent a few people to serve as generals.
There are seven people in the Li Dao department, five people from the four departments of Guo Yan, Tong Yuan, Fan Chou, and Zhang Ji, and the rest of Li Meng, Wang Fang, Yang Ding, and more than ten people also have a share, and they are each intended to be Zhonglang generals, miscellaneous generals, and partial generals.
As for Li Dao, Guo Yan, Fan Chou, Zhang Ji and Tong Yuan, these five people are not counted, and their titles must of course be determined by today's son. In addition, although Hu Zhen and Duan Xuan surrendered to the enemy at first, they eventually woke up, so the official reinstated Zhonglang General.
As for how Xu Rong will arrange to deal with it, Guo Yan and Fan Chou hope to be able to get rid of it resolutely, after all, he is not from Xiliang, and he is strong, and it may be a disaster to stay.
Tong Yuan and Zhang Ji proposed to let him go, at least to make meritorious contributions. In the end, Li Wei stopped the quarrel and decided to dismiss Xu Rong as a white body, and as for staying or going, I will talk about it later.
Li Dao was ambitious, and in addition to the position of general, he had many coveted positions.
With a cold smile on his face, he said to Tong Yuan nonchalantly: "My army has been hungry for a long time, but the treasury is abundant, I don't know what Tong Shaojun thinks?"
Everyone suddenly quieted down, everyone knew that the treasury was in the hands of the Dong family's army, and I don't know what the Dong family's soldiers and horses would say?
"This Li Dao, there is really you, I'm afraid you have been preparing for this for a long time, right?" Of course, this is just Tong Yuan's ventriloquism, and he can't say it directly.
However, since he ordered his subordinates to control the treasury, he naturally prepared his rhetoric a long time ago.
"Hahaha! Many of the treasury in this treasury were pulled directly from Dong Jiayiwu. If we distribute it directly or ask for the reward from the Son of Heaven, I am afraid it will be difficult to get the whole reward. ”
"Don't forget, Weiyang Jun hasn't asked the Son of Heaven for compensation and rewards yet. If Weiyang Jun asks the court for the things to return to Yiwu, he will share the preciousness with you. Wouldn't it be beautiful that everyone could get two copies of the Son of Heaven's reward and the Dong family's treasures! ”
Zhang Ji and Dong Cheng took the lead in echoing: "Okay, good! The Dong family really has a way! ”
Most of the generals are straightforward men, and they agree with it when they hear it. Only Li Dao's honest smile made Tong Yuan reluctant to look directly. Jia Xu observed from the sidelines, and a look of appreciation flashed in his eyes.
Dong Bai and Dong Wei never appeared, although the generals respected the Dong family very much, but no one would continue to obey the command of the Dong family, which formed a delicate state of respect but keeping a distance.
The generals imagined the future and made a lot of nonsense, and Li Dao also talked and laughed, depicting the vision of the future.
He suddenly remembered something, and said to Jia Xu, the only scribe on the table: "Wen He has made great contributions this time, if it weren't for you, I'm afraid I would have been arrested by the pavilion chief and his ilk." Wenhe can always be sealed. ”
Guo Yan, Zhang Ji and others knew that Jia Xu was powerful, and they all admired it and agreed one after another.
Jia Xu didn't smile, but refused: "It's just to save his life, where is there any great merit, Xu really can't accept it."
Li Wei repeatedly proposed, but Jia Xu insisted on not accepting it, so he had to say: "Now Chang'an is determined, and Xu can be appointed to a position related to people's livelihood and assist the general."
Although Li Dao was slightly unhappy when he was rejected, he said with no expression: "Wen He can temporarily appoint Zuo Fengyi to clear Wang Yun, Wang Hong and others' subordinates to ensure the stability of the surrounding area." However, this position is still not worthy of Mr., I think this year I will enter the court to lead the ministers, and we will create the Han Zhongxing together. ”
Jia Xu felt a little relieved, and immediately got up to thank him.
When Tong Yuan saw this scene, he thought, "This may be because Jia Xu feels guilty about the Han family, so he doesn't want to get too close to such ambitious people." But obviously, he will still assist Li Dao for a period of time, how can he gradually win him over? ”
Everyone ended the preliminary division in the banquet, but Tong Yuan knew that there were still many arrangements that would be made in private behind the scenes. According to the ambition of Li Guo and others, rather than ambition, they will not consider conquering the Quartet and stabilizing the world, but will control the court and enjoy power.
Ambition, ambition, the difference of one word, but completely changed the fate of these people.
