Chapter 44: The Pit Man

Liu Wei directly explained the stakes between the Yellow Turban Army and the Ten Standing Servants to Xue Yun in detail.

Xue Yun was speechless for a while, because this seemed to be selfish and disregarded for the common people in the world, but it was a very correct choice.

According to the history that Xue Yun knew, Liu Wei, the emperor, had a very low sense of existence, and after Dong Zhuo entered Beijing, he was abolished.

Since then, there has been no news about him.

But the current Liu Wei is giving Xue Yun a feeling of "the reincarnation of Emperor Guangwu Liu Xiu".

It was precisely because of his appearance that he overthrew Wang Mang's dictatorship and saved the people from fire and water.

Extend the life of the Han regime, which is already on the verge of death.

Xue Yun knew that he had no way to refute the theory that Liu Wei said before.

I had no choice but to nod and say, "Even if what you said is right, then disposing of a few eunuchs is not a matter for you to be captured?" ”

In Xue Yun's opinion, these eunuchs control the government, and the civil and military officials have long been fed up, even if they are killed at this time, those henchmen of the ten permanent servants will not jump out against anything?

Facing Xue Yun's question, Liu Wei just said lightly: "It's a pity that the Ten Standing Servants are not Zhao Gao. ”

Previously, Liu Wei personally admitted that the Ten Standing Servants were the same as Zhao Gao, but now he reversed his word and said it was different?

Liu Wei didn't look at Xue Yun, and continued, "Although Zhao Gao of the Qin Dynasty is also a dictator and has power in the government and the opposition, he is not a military general and has no military power in his hands. Even if that Qin II was incompetent, it was impossible for him to directly give the tiger talisman to Zhao Gao for safekeeping, but the Ten Standing Servants were different. ”

"Do the Ten Standing Servants have military power under them?" Xue Yun said in disbelief.

Liu Wei nodded, and then said, "That's right, that's the most elite army trained by my country, the Dragon Army, with a number of 150,000, they were established together by my ancestor Liu Xiu when they founded the Eastern Han Dynasty, and they are considered the strongest combat power in the entire country. ”

What Liu Wei meant by this was that my army, which enjoyed the equipment and special training methods provided by the royal family, was not at the same level as the soldiers of you local warlords.

According to Xue Yun's speculation, this dragon army, which reached 150,000 people, could solve the rebellion of the Yellow Turban Army.

Because they only need to eat their most elite 90,000 people, Zhang Jiao and they will lose their biggest support, and the entire Yellow Turban Army will be scattered.

This is what Liu Wei said before, the Yellow Turban Army is not a problem at all.

Xue Yun also didn't expect that this seemingly moribund Han Dynasty still had such a strong army.

It seems that even if the Yellow Turban Army is cleaned up, those princes will not dare to act rashly.

"Then how did this army fall into the hands of the Ten Servants now?"

It stands to reason that this army should always be in the hands of the emperor, and others should not be able to touch it at all.

No matter how many hands and eyes the Ten Standing Servants have, it is impossible for them to be in charge of this real army of kings.

"It's all the Emperor's idea."

Liu Wei explained, "When the emperor died, I was still young, and the emperor did not dare to put this army in my hands, for fear that I would be ignorant and do something out of the ordinary. Naturally, I didn't dare to hand it over to my mother, because it would cause a situation where my relatives would interfere in politics. So the emperor thought about it and temporarily handed over this army to Zhang Rang to take charge. And passed down the holy decree, saying that I was not yet eighteen years old and could not take over the Dragon Army. ”

"Then the emperor was not afraid that Zhang Rang would use this army to rebel?" Xue Yun didn't know why Liu Wei's father would make such a ridiculous decree.

It's just that Liu Wei shook his head and explained, "This is also a matter of no choice, after all, this army is the exclusive trump card of the royal family, and it is impossible for Zhang Rang to use it to rebel, but it is also invisibly, it can be regarded as giving him a gold medal for avoiding death." ”

After all, this army has the will of the emperor, and it is temporarily in charge of Zhang Rang, as long as Zhang Rang does not use it to rebel, other circumstances will not be affected.

For example, if Luoyang is attacked by the Yellow Turban Army, or if any of the princes rebels, he has the right to order this army to send troops to quell the rebellion.

After all, he did this to protect the safety of Kyoto, the world of the Han Dynasty.

"Then since he is in charge of this army, why don't he send them out and unite us princes to attack the Yellow Turban Army together? And huddled in this Luoyang City? ”

If the Great Han really has such a strong combat power, he should deal with the Yellow Turban Army first.

"That's where Zhang Rang is smart. He knew that the Dragon Army was his gold medal for avoiding death, and if he sent all the Dragon Army out, he would certainly be able to destroy the Yellow Turban Army, but he would also suffer heavy losses. And... ”

Liu Wei looked at Xue Yun at this moment, and then said, "And I'm also worried about whether you princes will not be able to work hard. It was the dragon army that waited for me to suffer heavy losses, and even annihilated the entire army. When the time comes, you can rise up and reproduce the rebellion of the eight kings of my Han Dynasty, and each one will be kings? In this way, my Eastern Han Dynasty is the same as the Eastern Zhou Dynasty. You are attacking each other like the Seven Heroes of the Warring States, and I, the Emperor of the Imperial Family, are at your mercy because I don't have a strong military power. ”

After Xue Yun listened to what Liu Wei said, he even wondered if the person in front of him had also crossed over like himself?

Subconsciously the birth asked, "The king... ”

Liu Wei replied, "Return." ”

After that, he said angrily, "I came out to discuss business with you, not to play this kind of game with you." ”

"It's Weichen, it's wrong." The code was not answered, and Xue Yun was sure that the person in front of him was Liu Wei, the young emperor of the Han Dynasty of this dynasty.

It's just that this emperor is not known how many times smarter than the one in history.

So he continued, "Since the emperor said that Zhang Rang was in charge of the Dragon Army, and the emperor could not be in charge until he was eighteen years old, it was useless to kill Zhang Rang?" ”

Because even if Zhang Rang is killed, Liu Wei still has no way to master this army.

That just transferred the power to Liu Wei and made him a real king.

But what's the use of that? The problem of the Yellow Turbans has not been resolved.

And at present, because this dragon army has the holy decree of the emperor, it can be said that before Liu Wei was eighteen years old, and Zhang Rang did not rebel, this eunuch had absolute control over this army.

Liu Wei nodded and said, "That's right, and if someone kills the Ten Standing Servants, although the whole court will rejoice, but after all, it is to kill the imperial court officials, and the surface work still has to be done." It was the dragon army that dispatched to cut down all the forces of the person who did it. ”

After listening to Liu Wei's words, Xue Yun suddenly wanted to curse in his heart.

"I'm going, this is looking for me to kill the Ten Standing Attendants, and then send the Dragon Army to wipe me out? It's driving me to my death. Pitters! ”

Xue Yun complained in his heart, and he was also hesitant to speak.

"Well, Your Majesty, you don't want me to complete this difficult and glorious task, do you?"

Seeing Xue Yun's smile that was more ugly than crying, Liu Wei smiled and said, "Yes, I think about it, I think only you can take on this great responsibility, how does Aiqing feel?" ”

Xue Yun suddenly looked like a frosted eggplant - wilted.
