Chapter 326: Liu Tao Sees Dong Zhuo
Anyway, there is no need to think deeply about this thing, in February 189, the campaign entered a special phase. The thieves had been defeated and wanted to retreat, Huangfu Song ordered a pursuit, but Dong Zhuo persuaded not to pursue, but the persuasion was ineffective, and the pursuit continued.
In the end, Huangfu Song succeeded in defeating the thieves, bringing the rebellion that began in 184 to an end. Considering that Emperor Ling died in April, Dong Zhuo was appointed as the governor of the state before that, it should have been April ago, and this battle had already ended.
However, Dong Zhuo did not go to serve in Bingzhou, anyway, he stayed in Hedong, but in less than a month, or even a few days, Emperor Ling died, which is obviously a bit too coincidental. As if receiving someone's order, waiting in the east of the river.
Of course, it was He Jin who called Dong Zhuo to Luoyang, considering that Yuan Shao was an official under him......
However, even if Liu Hong dies violently, Liu Tao will not feel that there is any problem. will even complain that it takes so long to make a move, but from 184 to 189, it lasted for more than four years.
Or rather, the early stage was really just to allow Dong Zhuo to recover. It was only later that I found out that the timing was right, or because of something, the black hand decided to do it, so there was this result?
On Huangfu Song's side, after listening to Liu Tao's words, he also thought about it, and it made sense when he thought about it. With the failure of Yuan Kui's 'murder' of Liu Tao and his dismissal, Yuan Valve's power in the court was gradually purged by Liu Hong.
Yang Ci planned to take over, but as soon as he took office, he found that the funds of Sikong Mansion had been taken away by Liu Hong. In Sikong's position, he was busy for three months, and finally passed away with dissatisfaction and resentment.
Yang Biao has not yet been able to grow up, and the second generation of Yuan Valve has no outstanding leaders, Liu Hong took advantage of the victory to pursue, if it were not for the attention attracted by the Liangzhou Rebellion, I am afraid that he has begun to regain control of the court.
"This kind of thing, it's okay to talk about it in private......" Huang Fu Song felt that even if there was such a thing, it was not suitable to talk about it.
First of all, the battle situation in Liangzhou really attracted the attention of the entire Han Dynasty. It is not suitable for any chaos now, otherwise it could easily lead to a major rout at the front.
Secondly, there is no accurate evidence, and it is easy to be calculated by others if you suspect others casually, and the key is not good. If it is proven to be false, maybe he will also bear the responsibility of slandering the important ministers of the court.
As a politician, the most correct thing to do, of course, is to shut up.
"Of course I know, but if I think about it that way, a lot of things will be clear. Liu Ge and I have obviously become a thorn in someone's side. Liu Tao replied.
"I have never doubted the innocence of you and Liu Ge." Huang Fu Song replied, "The problem is that the soldiers below don't believe it, and they have not been able to achieve an effective victory, and many people are holding their breath in their hearts and need to vent. ”
The key is that at this time, people with good intentions have attracted this qi towards Liu Tao and Liu Ge.
"I'm going to meet Dong Zhuo later......" Liu Tao got up.
"You suspect it's him? But why? Huangfu Song couldn't understand that if Dong Zhuo was used in vain according to history, then he might also be suspicious. But the problem is that Dong Zhuo was transferred to the front line by Zhang Wen, and he was not on the front line before, and he was not in vain.
"Because the mentioned Li Junhou is also Li Dao. It's a native of Beidi County, not to mention, I received news that he has a good relationship with Dong Zhuo......" Liu Tao replied, "Not to mention that Dong Zhuo is in Liangzhou, and he has a good relationship with the Qiang people, and he is even married to the daughter of the leader of the Qiang tribe." From his status to the biggest profiteer, I have no reason not to doubt him. ”
"In that case, let's test him." Huangfu Song nodded, Li Dao actually had a bad relationship with Dong Zhuo, but he didn't know this. But also, how could the commander-in-chief of the whole army know the relationship network of the military candidates under the command of a school captain.
"Also, be careful of Zhang Wen......" Liu Tao got up, "I can bring Dong Zhuo in, I don't think he is my own person." ”
In particular, this one is also a frequent trick, not only to let the war continue for a year or two without results. It also led to the rebellion of Zhang Chun and the Southern Xiongnu. In the end, Liu Hong also realized this problem and reactivated Huangfu Song, which quickly reversed the situation.
Liu Tao had learned about this history, so when he first came, he heard that Zhang Wen was not in a hurry to collect information, but he did not mean to counterattack immediately, so he knew that this estimate was also dragging out. simply didn't fall under him, so as not to be cheated and said he didn't know.
Looking at Liu Ge's current situation, he doesn't want to be like this.
"Are you overdoing it?" Huangfu Song asked suddenly.
"I'd rather be told to be overly cautious than to have my head cut off before someone else knows how to repent." Liu Tao replied casually, "General Huangfu, I feel a torrent that is bigger than the Yellow Turban Rebellion, and it is coming!" ”
Huangfu Song opened his mouth, he seemed to sense what Liu Tao was going to say, but it was not easy to evaluate. In other words, at this moment, when he heard this sentence, he actually felt a little numb on his scalp.
Ignoring him, Liu Tao found Dong Zhuo's side, and heard that it was General Zhenbei who came over, and Dong Zhuo actually came out to greet him in person.
Everyone is too guarded, Liu Tao is the county guard of Yunzhong, and Dong Zhuo is also the Taishou of Hedong. But the military position is different, Liu Tao is the general of Zhenbei, and he is just a general of the prisoner.
I feel that they are all miscellaneous generals, and the problem is that Liu Tao, the general of Zhenbei, has a faint conclusion in the DPRK and China, and he is in charge of the defense of the border counties of the state. He, a broken general, is at most on par with a permanent lieutenant in the final analysis.
It can only be said that there are people in the permanent captains, and there is no way, so use the identity of the miscellaneous general to appease it, this is the feeling. So even if he is an old general, Dong Zhuo's posture is very low.
"You can't drink alcohol in the army, otherwise you will definitely entertain ......the general with the best wine," Dong Zhuo smiled and introduced Liu Tao into the camp.
It's just that Liu Tao couldn't relax at all, although he came in with Yang Zhuo, but this is Dong Zhuo's territory. The gentleman didn't stand under the wall, and he didn't want to come if he could.
"The rules in the army are like this, and I can't make an exception. And General Dong doesn't need to be like this, when you resisted the Qiang people in the border county, I was still just white, if you want to talk about the march, you are a senior, I should learn from you. Liu Tao also lowered his posture.
It should be regarded as respecting this future Xiangguo, no matter what the means, to be able to mix from a good family to a Han Xiangguo, this is ability.
"Resume aside, the first is the best." Dong Zhuo likes Liu Tao's posture very much.
If you change your usual times, maybe you don't mind making friends, after all, this is also a connection, but from his son-in-law Li Ru, after knowing Yuan Valve's plans, he knows better that this kind of capable Han clan must be eliminated!
"I brought some gifts here...... Liu Tao looked at Dong Zhuo, "a specialty in the clouds, and ask General Dong not to dislike it." ”
Yang shot forward and brought over the gift, which was nothing more than a "Summary of Military Training", a tea brick, and a pot of wine. Of course, the "Synopsis" is still the final version compiled by Cai Yong...... I hope don't look at Dong Zhuo stupidly, if he does.
"I have a small request." Liu Tao looked at Dong Zhuo, "I heard that General Dong has a horse called Chitu, I don't know if I can cut my love?" At least, lend me a year or two? ”
"Forehead......" Dong Zhuo was a little confused, you came to me for a trip, and you actually had the idea of beating my horse?
