Chapter 186: Dong Zhuo's Controversy over the North Palace
It turned out that after Li Meng's army was defeated that day, he took dozens of guards and ran all the way for hundreds of miles. It wasn't until he entered Chang'an City that Li Meng let out a long breath!
Li Meng saw that the 10,000 soldiers and horses he led were now only a few dozen left, and he was shocked and angry in his heart! On the one hand, Li Meng was afraid of Dong Zhuo and beheaded himself to vent his anger; On the other hand, Li Meng was afraid of the Liangzhou soldiers and horses behind him, and he would chase after him, if he lost Chang'an City again, then he really died and had no place to be buried!
Although it is said that at this time, the guards of Chang'an City are Huangfu Song and Gai Xun. But Li Meng clearly remembered that when he led his troops west from Luoyang City to Chencang, Dong Zhuo told him that he must guard the two cities of Chencang and Chang'an!
Li Meng was in Chang'an City for a few days, and he didn't see the soldiers and horses from Liangzhou coming to kill him, and he didn't see Dong Zhuo sending people to look for him, so he became more and more uneasy.
Li Meng had no choice but to visit Huangfu Song and Gai Xun in order to find a good solution from them to solve his current predicament.
Huangfu Song and Gai Xun already resented Dong Zhuo, so naturally they would not be kind enough to help Li Meng. Huangfu Song and the others perfunctory Li Meng, and bluntly said that they should return to Luoyang City and ask Dong Zhuo for their guilt. Li Meng did not doubt that he had him, so he brought those dozens of personal guards to Luoyang City.
……
Dong Zhuo's personal guards went out and went to summon Li Meng. After a while, I saw that Li Meng, under the guidance of Dong Zhuo's personal guards, came to the hall of the Dong Mansion with a worried face.
"My lord! Li Meng was incompetent, and he mistakenly fell for Li Mu's treacherous scheme, resulting in the annihilation of the westward army, which humiliated the lord Tianwei! There is a great trust from the Lord! ”
"O Lord, please be gracious...... Leaving Li Meng a dog's life, Li Meng is willing to make meritorious service for his crimes...... Please have mercy on your lord......"
As soon as Li Meng entered the hall, he didn't dare to look at Dong Zhuo, so he knelt on the ground, kowtowing and crying. I saw that Li Meng's forehead was already bleeding!
"The first battle of Chencang, the geometry of Liangzhou's soldiers and horses? The vertical man dares to say half a lie, and we will let you ...... You can't survive or die! ”
Dong Zhuo suppressed his anger and shouted.
"Back to ...... Returning to the lord, there are about ...... soldiers and horses in Liangzhou Fifteen thousand people......" Li Meng was shocked, and hurriedly kowtowed and replied truthfully.
"Liangzhou Soldiers and Horses...... Where is it now? ”
Dong Zhuo continued to hold back his anger and shouted loudly.
"Back to ...... Returning to the lord, he is still ...... in Chencang City"
Li Meng's forehead, temples, and back were already in a cold sweat, and he immediately snorted.
"Bastard thing! There were only 15,000 soldiers and horses in Liangzhou. You stupid thief...... Within one day, 10,000 soldiers were lost, causing the hearts of the soldiers and horses in Luoyang to fluctuate! Let Li Mu dog thief again...... Humiliate our family again! ”
"An ignorant fool like you deserves death! If you don't kill this waste, it will be difficult to vent the hatred in our family's hearts, and it will be difficult to shake the hearts of the Yang army! ”
"Someone's coming......"
Dong Zhuoyuan glared, and as soon as Li Meng's words fell, he stepped forward and kicked Li Meng a few times. Dong Zhuo was already very strong, and these few feet went up and kicked Li Meng half to death!
"The lord is slow...... Keep people under the knife! ”
Li Ru was shocked when he saw that Dong Zhuo was going to give the order to kill Li Meng, and hurriedly stepped forward and pulled Dong Zhuo's robe sleeve, looking anxious.
"Wenyou, this kind of waste...... What's the use of keeping it? ”
Dong Zhuo was furious, shook off Li Ru, and roared angrily.
"My lord, victory and defeat are a common thing in soldiers! Moreover, Li Mu's dog thief is treacherous and cunning, and he has no intention of calculating or unintentional, and it is understandable that Captain Li was defeated! ”
"A thousand armies are easy to get, but one will be hard to find! At the moment, our army can be a great general...... Not much! If the lord kills Captain Li, the soldiers will be frightened, and the morale of the army will inevitably fluctuate! In the future, the soldiers will be afraid and dare not do their best! Please think twice! ”
"Moreover, the art of war: I have never been out of the division, and I have killed the general, which is not good for the army! Tomorrow in the court, the lord will fight against Lu Zhi and Yang Biao, a group of traitors. It can also be regarded as a battle! I hope the lord will think twice! ”
Li Ru stabilized his body, then bowed deeply to Dong Zhuo, and comforted him repeatedly.
"If it weren't for the intercession of the military advisor, our family would have the virtue of a good life. Now...... You, Li Meng, are already in a different place! ”
"Spread the order of our family, and the rod will punish Li Meng for forty! Demotion Li Meng to the rank of lieutenant to see the aftermath! ”
After a long time, just when Li Ru was nervous and Li Meng was about to despair, Dong Zhuo shouted in a deep voice.
"Lord Shengming!" Li Ru breathed a sigh of relief.
"The sin will be ...... Thank you for your reconstruction! Even if Li Meng died, he would repay the grace of the lord. ”
Li Mengqiang took a breath, turned over and knelt on the ground, and said in a weak voice.
Li Ru hurriedly waved towards Dong Zhuo's personal guards, motioned to them, and carried Li Meng down.
"Wen You is really like a god! Li Mu's dog thief really stationed troops in Chen Cangcheng! That being the case...... Tomorrow morning, our family will have no worries! ”
After a long time, Dong Zhuo laughed wildly with a happy face.
"Lord Shengming! Tomorrow morning, the lord will be able to suppress the Son of Heaven and deter the ministers! The Lord will get what he wants! ”
Li Ru bowed to Dong Zhuo and echoed with a smile.
……
The next day, the Great Han Jingshi Luoyang North Palace!
"The widow has first ascended to the great treasure, and the affairs of the world are not yet clear. I also hope that all Aiqing, with the first emperor Tianwei as the care, and the Han Jiangshan Sheji as the thought, the good life is assisted by the widow! ”
Emperor Liu Wei of the Han Dynasty hurriedly glanced at the ministers and said in a low voice.
"Your Majesty! The ministers will definitely do their best to assist Your Majesty and support me to live up to the trust of the emperor! ”
Yuan Kui, Yuan Feng, Lu Zhi, Yang Biao and others bowed to Liu Wei and replied in unison.
At this moment, Dong Zhuo stared at Liu Wei coldly and snorted coldly. Some of the Luoyang officials who took refuge in Dong Zhuo were also shamelessly joking with each other.
"An hour has passed this morning, and the widow is a little tired. Zhong Aiqing...... If you have something to do, let's retreat if you have nothing to do! ”
Liu Wei was cowardly by nature, and when he saw Dong Zhuo and others staring at him, he was very flustered. Liu Bian's words stopped a few more times, and finally he muttered.
"Your Majesty, the martial arts of the Hou Wenzhi of the Township are rare in the world! Before the Marquis of Xiangxiang, he made great achievements in destroying the Kwantung Civil Rebellion, the Guanxi Rebellion, and the Southern Xiongnu; Later, there was a miraculous achievement of exterminating the eunuch party and supporting His Majesty to return to Luoyang. ”
"All kinds of merits, looking at thousands of years in China, are also unprecedented! Moreover, His Majesty succeeded to the unification at the beginning, and he still needs ministers with both ability and political integrity, and he will be able to support him day and night! ”
"Weichen thinks that looking at today, there are both Yiyin's virtue and Huo Guang's talent, and the only one is Donggong, the Marquis of Xiangxiang!"
"Weichen respectfully invites Your Majesty to make a great deal of grace and enthrone the townsman as commonplace! It's also good to let the countryman protect His Majesty sooner or later! If you make great contributions, but you can't reward them, I'm afraid it will chill the hearts of all the people in the world! ”
"I hope that Your Majesty will judge!"
I saw that an official who had taken refuge in Dong Zhuo, under Dong Zhuo's instructions, got up and said loudly.
"Your Majesty, there is no vacancy in the office of Sikong. The minister thought that he could be awarded the post of Shaofu, one of the Hou Jiuqing of the township! ”
The servant Yang Biao got up, bowed to Liu Wei, and said loudly.
"Your Majesty, the minister seconded Sikong's words!" ……
In just an instant, dozens of officials asked for Dong Zhuo to be granted the position of Sikong.
"Your Majesty, the minister seconded what Mrs. Yang said!"
Yuan Kui, Yuan Feng, Lu Zhi and others replied in unison.
All of a sudden, in the main hall of the North Palace, there were many voices and arguments!
