Chapter Ninety-Eight: Dong Zhuo Gains Momentum
Originally, Lu Bu still wanted to save some face and go by himself, but he didn't bring the army, but since Ding Yuan dared to directly threaten him today, how could Lu Bu have been threatened like this, so he immediately stiffened his neck and got into trouble with Ding Yuan!
Many of the surrounding soldiers hesitated, and Hou Cheng, Wei Yue and others, who had been friends with Lu Bu in the past, did not hesitate to come to Lu Bu's side with soldiers and horses to confront the men and horses brought by Ding Yuan.
"You have to rebel too!?" Ding Yuan looked at Lu Bu and gave an order, and the soldiers under his tent walked away, staring at these people with red faces.
"You are only a state assassin, and you have only been in the state for a year, and you have never been in the same battle as me, you only know that you want to drink and make us wait, and now Dong Gong is relied on by the Son of Heaven, and it is not us who rebels, but you!" Lu Bu dragged Fang Tian's painting halberd to the ground, and looked at Ding Yuan's eyes: "Leave at this time, for the sake of the old feelings, I will spare your life, otherwise, Lu Bu will recognize you, this Fang Tianhua halberd will not recognize you!" ”
On the side, Li Su saw that the situation had reached such a point, he was not surprised but rejoiced, and hurriedly stepped forward, shouting loudly at the soldiers of the state and the state: "Ladies and gentlemen, Dong Gong is not subordinate to the order of the Son of Heaven, and his hands are righteous, if he insists on being the enemy of Dong Gong, don't say that the name of the thief on his back is the grain and grass in the army, if there is no Dong Gong's dispatch, I am afraid that within a few days, you will have no food available, where to go, you soldiers can think about it!" ”
Li Su didn't know how much grain and grass the state army had, but it would definitely not be too much, and grain and grass were the lifeblood of an army.
When many soldiers heard this, they were already a little hesitant, and at this moment, many people ran towards Lu Bu's rear.
Ding Yuan was furious, drew his sword and pointed at Lu Bu and scolded: "A thief without a father and a mother, bad for my army, chaos for the country and the people, who killed this thief for me!" ”
No one moved the soldiers behind Ding Yuan, although Lu Bu was the main book, but in the Bingzhou Army, it was a god-like existence, Mo said that there was already doubt now, that is, without Li Su's provocation, no one dared to face Lu Bu.
No one moved here, but Lu Bu's eyes were red over there, he lost his father since he was a child, and his mother was also killed by a stray arrow when the Xianbei people went south to plunder when he was a teenager, Lu Bu hated the Xianbei people, and even more hated someone who said that his parents, at this moment Ding Yuan insulted his parents, that is, he moved his reverse scales, his eyes suddenly turned red, and Sen Ran looked at Ding Yuan and said: "The old thief should die!" ”
After speaking, his legs clamped the horse's belly, and the red rabbit under his crotch was psychic, and he had already pegasus out, and he took Ding Yuan directly, and in a moment, he had arrived in front of Ding Yuan.
Ding Yuan regretted a little as soon as he said it, how could he say that he had also been in Bingzhou for a year, how could he not know that Lu Bu was against the scales, but at this moment, there was obviously no room for recovery, Lu Bu had already dragged his halberd to kill, and hurriedly raised his sword to parry.
"Die!" Fang Tian's painting halberd brought up a puff of earth mist, swept through Ding Yuan's throat at a very fast speed, the cold light flashed, and the sound of breaking the air just sounded, Ding Yuan's hand holding the sword froze in the air, the human head had already flown out of the distance, and the splattered blood sprinkled on Lu Bu's face, which was even more hideous.
The soldiers of the surrounding states subconsciously retreated, fearing that they would be killed by the angry Lu Bu to vent their anger.
Wiping the blood mist on his face fiercely, Lu Bu's eyes flashed with a red light, looked around, and slowly raised the Fang Tian painting halberd in his hand: "Today, I am rebellious for the imperial court, and I am determined to defect to Dong Gong, you are all robes of cloth, if you are willing to defect to Dong Gong with me, Bu regards him as a brother, if you don't want to, Lu Bu will never leave it difficult!" Of course, if anyone wants to avenge this thief, they can also come and try it! ”
A group of soldiers from the state looked at each other, and Wei Xu, Hou Cheng and others behind Lu Bu had already rode out, and said loudly: "How does Ding Yuan treat me, you should know, now that Dong Gong is sincerely invited, do you still have to work for a dead person?" ”
Lu Bu didn't care about these people, and ordered someone to find Ding Yuan's head, hang it on the horse's neck, and after Fang Tian's halberd was handed over to the general, he immediately took the people and horses to vote for Dong Zhuo.
As for these soldiers who are willing to follow him, they are naturally brothers, if they are unwilling, don't expect him Lu Bu to beg them!
Many people have followed up when they see this, people have blind obedience, and don't look at Lu Bu is the main book, but his prestige in Bingzhou is not low, and many people in the army do not obey Ding Yuan, only serve Lu Bu, which is also an important reason why Ding Yuan is afraid of Lu Bu.
It was late at night when Lu Bu came to vote, the gate of Luoyang City was closed, Dong Zhuo heard that Lu Bu had killed Ding Yuantou, he was overjoyed and personally went out to greet him.
At the same time, people were recruited and merged with the state soldiers, and food and wages were distributed to pacify.
……
Chen Mo was woken up by Yun Si, and Cao Cao and Bao Xin were already waiting in the living room.
"What's the matter, the Duke of Jianyang has been defeated?" When Chen Mo came to the main hall, Cao Cao and Bao Xin were already waiting, and Chen Mo asked directly.
"How does General Chen know?" Bao Xin frowned and looked at Chen Mo.
"It's the general trend." Chen Mo knelt down and sighed and said: "As soon as the original Duke leaves, the Luoyang army is like a plate of scattered sand without anyone to command, and it is difficult to mobilize even if Yuan Gong comes forward in person. ”
The county official is not as good as the current management, the prestige of the Yuan family is in Shilin rather than in the army, in the army, only Yuan Shao has this appeal, even if Yuan Kui comes forward, it is useless.
"Let's talk about Jianyang Gong." Chen Mo looked at the two of them and said, "Lu Bu Zhiyong, I have seen it yesterday, but such a character is used as the main book?" Do you really believe that Jianyang Gong is just to polish Lu Bu? ”
"It's more jealous, after all, Ding Jianyang has only been in the state for a year, and Lu Bu's prestige is too high, which is not good for him." Cao Cao saw it clearly, shook his head and said, "So, although Ding Jianyang won yesterday, Dong Zhuo saw that the army was not in harmony?" The virtuous brother therefore concluded that Ding Jianyang would be defeated? ”
"Dong Gong holds the grain depot in his hands, the armies can't join forces, and no one can integrate the strength of the armies, and it's ......" Chen Mo looked at Cao Cao and Bao Xin and said: "Even if someone can, like Ben Chu Gong, hesitate, Dong Gong is decisive, how can he not be defeated?" ”
"Dong Gong?" Bao Xin frowned and looked at Chen Mo: "General Chen said this, but he has defected to Dong Thief?" ”
"Since it has returned to heaven and is powerless, but Luoyang can't go on any longer, why don't you take advantage of the trend?" Chen Mo asked rhetorically: "General Yuncheng, do we want to fight for the stability of the society or for the sake of the scholars?" ”
"So you defected to Dong Thief!?" Bao Xin said angrily.
"I don't vote for anyone, just for the continuation of the Han family." Chen Mo stood up, looked at Bao Xin and said: "If the former Japanese first prince can listen to my words, there is today's matter, now that the overall situation has been decided, I can only do anything, I can only take advantage of the situation, if General Yuncheng has a clever plan to break Dong Zhuo and let Luoyang settle down as soon as possible, Mo will help him!" ”
"Nope!" Bao Xin said coldly: "But if you defect to the country, you are a shame of a scholar, and you are ashamed to be with you!" ”
"General Bao is also a person with a strategy!" Chen Mo also got up, looked at Bao Xindao, and said, "Could it be that at this time, we know that we are invincible, but we still have to fight hard with others until we die?" Such a meaningless sacrifice, Chen is unwilling. ”
"You're afraid of death!?" Bao Xin said sharply.
"Ants are still stealing life, let alone me?" Chen Mo nodded, it is normal for people to be afraid of death, there is nothing to be ashamed of: "And the question now is just who is in power, the Son of Heaven is still here, although we are defeated today, we may not be able to regain the lead in the future, how arrogant the ten permanent servants were back then, and now they are safe, aren't we and the scholars also compromising to survive under them, and finally be able to eliminate the ten permanent servants?" If we all die with a clear will, who will protect this great Han country, and who will protect Your Majesty? ”
"I can't do it! If I want to be like you, I would rather die than bend my knees to the thieves! Bao Xin snorted coldly and threw his sleeves away.
"Brother Xian, don't blame him, Yuncheng has a straightforward temperament, and sometimes he doesn't know how to be flexible." Cao Cao watched Bao Xin leave, and said to Chen Mo helplessly: "Brother Xian also thinks that there is no hope now? ”
"If you had the chance, how could you make such a decision?" Chen Mo nodded and said, "At present, the way that the junior brother can think of is to temporarily commit to Dong Zhuo's command, and after Luoyang is stable, he will find an opportunity to seize power." ”
"I'm afraid that many people will misunderstand." Cao Cao sighed.
"There are a lot of things that need to be done." Chen Mo smiled: "Or does my brother understand me?" ”
"Ding Yuan was killed by Lu Bu last night." Cao Cao picked up the soup that Juan'er brought him and took a sip.
"It's a bit too much." Chen Mo frowned when he heard this, even if it was not a master-slave relationship, but Ding Yuan was his boss after all, and it would be wrong to kill him directly.
"Lu Bu wanted to leave, Ding Yuan didn't let him, and the two sides clashed, as if Ding Yuan angered Lu Bu and was killed by Lu Bu in the chaos, and his head is now hanging outside the valley gate." Cao Cao said with a smile: "Luoyang celebrities, it was chaos overnight. ”
Can it not be messy? Yesterday, Ding Yuan just won for a while, which made the Luoyang scholars rejoice and run to tell each other, but after sleeping for a while, Ding Yuan was directly killed by his subordinates, this contrast, most people are probably not mentally prepared.
"And how is my brother going to prepare?" Chen Mo looked at Cao Cao and asked.
"I don't know." Cao Cao shook his head: "Brother can't be so decisive as you." ”
Cao Cao has more things to worry about, the connections and reputation he has accumulated over the years, if he is really like Chen Mo, maybe it will be gone.
"Anyway, let's send Ang'er and them out of Luoyang first, although I want to stabilize the situation in Luoyang as soon as possible, but I'm afraid it won't be as I think." Chen Mo smiled.
"Ang'er wanted to come to visit me for the past two days, but now it seems that there is no chance." Cao Cao laughed.
"Wait until that's over." Speaking of this, Chen Mo also sighed, feeling a little uncomfortable in his heart, he has always wanted to be a minister of Zhongxing, but the fate of the Han family seems to have come to an end, and he is humble and weak, and many times he is powerless.
"Let's wait and see what happens, although Dong Zhuo has the right to fight, it is impossible to kill everyone, after the abolition, we still have to win over the scholars, and maybe the situation will be better at that time." Cao Cao got up and said, "Yuncheng is afraid that he will leave, I will send him off." ”
"I won't go, General Bao probably doesn't want to see me too much." Chen Mo got up and said goodbye.
"He'll understand later." Cao Cao patted Chen Mo on the shoulder and smiled.
"Brother, go slowly."
"Farewell!"
