Chapter 220: Dong Zhuo lays out Luoyang City
But it is said that from the eighteenth day of the first month of 188 to the middle of March of the same year. Dong Zhuo saw that after Cao Cao, Yuan Shao, Qiao Mao and others left Luoyang City, they neither spoke out to denounce themselves, nor did they raise troops to the east. Dong Zhuo thought that Cao Cao and others had admitted their abolition, so he settled down.
Dong Zhuo took the opportunity to annex the soldiers and horses of Cao Cao, Yuan Shao, Chun Yuqiong, and Bao Hong. Dong Zhuo also recruited a total of 100,000 troops in the four counties of Youfufeng, Zuofengyi, Hanoi, and Hedong. So far, the number of combatable soldiers under Dong Zhuo's command has reached 220,000!
On March 22, 188, Dong Zhuo proclaimed himself Xiangguo without going through Liu Xie's edict, and called himself "noble". Since then, Dong Zhuo has the privilege of "entering the court and going to the palace with a sword".
On March 25, 188, Dong Zhuo named his mother "Chiyang Jun" and set up orders and edicts for her; enshrined Dong Min as the Marquis of Hu; enshrined his son Dong Play (I didn't find the exact name, I made it up blindly) as the Marquis of Lintao; Dong Huang was appointed as the servant and the marquis of Meiyang Pavilion.
From time to time, Wu Fu, the captain of the Yue cavalry, took the opportunity of meeting Dong Zhuo to assassinate Dong Zhuo. Wu Fu failed to assassinate and was killed by Lu Bu!
Dong Zhuo is brutal by nature, and he is good at using capital punishment to establish his authority. When the Han Dynasty servant Shi Jiaolongzong visited Dong Zhuo, he forgot to remove his sword and was beaten to death by Dong Zhuo's soldiers.
Zhou Hui, the son of Dasi Nong Zhou Zhong, heard that Dong Zhuo had abolished Liu Wei and that something had happened to the Dahan Jingshi, so he came to Luoyang City to find out. Dong Zhuo didn't ask the reason, and ordered the soldiers to kill Zhou Hui!
From then on, no one in Luoyang City dared to contradict Dong Zhuo. Dong Zhuofa's arrogance is unstoppable.
Dong Zhuo indulged in the soldiers, plundering property and women everywhere for their amusement and ravage. Whether it is the aristocratic officials in Luoyang City or the wealthy families outside Luoyang City, they have all become the targets of Dong Zhuojun's "search".
Hundreds of miles inside and outside the city of Luoyang, whether it is officials, families or ordinary people, they are all gloomy and gloomy, and the complaints are monstrous! However, they could only succumb to Dong Zhuo's obscenity.
June 21, 188 Yang City Dong Mansion!
"Lord, there is an emergency military situation!"
In the hall of the Dong Mansion, Dong Zhuo was holding two maids in his arms, up and down his hands. Li Ru walked quickly to the hall with a solemn face and reported urgently.
"When did Wen You ever feel so flustered?" Dong Zhuo was stunned, pushed the two maids away, and laughed wildly; "Which damn rebel again...... Insulting our family? ”
"My lord! Sun Jian went north! ”
Seeing Dong Zhuo so arrogant, Li Ru sighed and said in a deep voice.
"Who...... Sun Jian? ”
Dong Zhuo was stunned, and quickly stood up, stared at his eyes, and asked in disbelief; Sun Wentai ...... Where are we now? ”
"Don't worry, lord!" Li Ru saw that Dong Zhuo was a little flustered, and hurriedly relieved: "According to the report from the scout, Sun Jian has only arrived in Xinye County, Nanyang County. But...... Jingzhou Thorn Shi Wang Rui...... has been killed by Sun Jian! ”
"The Jiangdong Tigers are coming...... Dong Zhuo was flustered and muttered to himself; Immediately, a worried expression asked, "Wenyou...... What should we do now? ”
"My lord! If Wen You expected it was not bad, except for Sun Jian's soldiers and horses who went north; Cao Cao, Yuan Shao, Bao Xin and other thieves in the Kanto; Kansai's Li Mu dog thief; Even...... There will be a move......"
Li Ru saw Dong Zhuo's panic, and hurriedly analyzed.
"Didn't our family ask these ......" Dong Zhuo was shocked in his heart, and before Li Ru finished speaking, he hissed and shouted: "What our family is asking about is countermeasures...... Countermeasures wow! ”
"Li Ru damn it! I beg your forgiveness! ”
Li Ru was shocked when he saw Dong Zhuo's furious and murderous face, and hurriedly knelt on the ground and bowed to the ground.
"Get up!"
Dong Zhuo suppressed the anger in his heart, waved his hand, and said in a deep voice.
"Thank you for your innocence!"
Li Ruru was pardoned, quickly stood up, wiped the cold sweat on his forehead, and replied respectfully: "As far as Wen You can see, the lord should be a high-ranking official...... Make a good deal with Sun Jian and let him not go north for the time being. It's good to give the lord time to dispatch troops! ”
"Oh......" Dong Zhuo nodded and muttered, "What should I do...... Edict Sun Wentai? ”
"My lord, please take a look!" Li Ru took out a piece of music from the sleeve of his robe, handed it to Dong Zhuo, and said respectfully: "This is Yuan Shu, please play the Son of Heaven...... Enshrined Sun Jian as a false lieutenant general. ”
"Hahaha......" Dong Zhuo glanced at the piece a few times, and then laughed wildly: "It's just a fake Zhonglang general!" Quasi-...... Quasi-play! ”
"Right now, the lord can take advantage of the Kansai and Kanto roads to rebel against the thieves, and when he has not yet rebelled, he will dispatch troops to take precautions." Li Ru groaned.
"I want to hear about it!"
"Tiger Prison Pass is the eastern barrier of Luoyang City, and it needs to be guarded by heavy troops. If you can hold the Tiger Prison Pass, even if there are many anti-thieves in the Kanto region, Luoyang City can be as stable as Mount Tai! ”
"The Bianshui flows through Xingyang, and the land is very dangerous, and the lord still needs to send troops to garrison it. If there is a mistake in the Tiger Prison Pass, our army can also be here, delaying the Kwantung anti-thieves! ”
Li Ru said confidently.
"Wen You is really a genius! Wonderful...... It's wonderful! ”
"Immediately order Zhonglang to send Niu Fu and Dong Yue, and order both of them to supervise the captains Fan Chou, Zhang Ji, and Hua Xiong, and the cavalry captains Li Su and Yang Ding, and 60,000 troops, and go east to guard the Tiger Pass!"
"Immediately send an order to Xu Rong, the general of Zhonglang, and order him and Captain Li Meng to lead 20,000 troops to guard Bianshui and respond to the army of Hujiaoguan!"
Dong Zhuo thought less, nodded, and laughed wildly.
"Binh Gao, Hanoi County, is the northeastern barrier of Luoyang City, and it is also a strategic location! The lord can send an army to guard here to prevent the Kwantung thieves from attacking Mengjin! ”
Li Ru answered the promise and continued.
"Not bad!" Dong Zhuo nodded, and then laughed wildly: "Immediately order Zhonglang to send Hu Zhen, and order him and the captain Wang Fang to lead 30,000 troops to guard here!" ”
"Sun Jian is a Jiangdong Tiger, a hero of the world! It is also necessary to send a general to guard the south of Luoyang City! Dong Zhuo's face darkened, and he asked in a deep voice: "What Wenyou can see...... Who can stop Sun Wentai's military front? ”
"Don't worry, lord!"
Li Ru smiled and said with relief: "Sun Jian is indeed the hero of the world!" But...... This person is more than brave, and his wit is slightly lacking! The lord can send Zhonglang general Duan Xuan, and the captains Li Dao and Guo Yan to lead 40,000 troops to defend Yique Pass and Yuyuan Pass without fighting with Sun Jian. The Jiangdong Tigers are nothing to fear! ”
"Hahaha...... Good! Dong Zhuo's heart settled down a little, and then laughed wildly: "If you can block the Jiangdong Tiger, Luoyang City will be worry-free!" ”
"If the lord wants to...... To prevent the anti-thief soldiers from entering Luoyang City, four general orders need to be passed down! Li Ru said leisurely.
"Oh......" Dong Zhuo muttered: "Wen You, come on......
"The first general order, Liu Biao of the Zong Clan, is the history of Jingzhou Thorn. First, it can show the people of the world that the lord's benevolence and generosity are kind; Second, in the name of the Son of Heaven, Liu Biao was ordered to send troops to attack Sun Jian and Yuan Shu! ”
Li Ru replied with a smile.
"Good! According to Wenyou's words, Dong Zhuo nodded, and then muttered: "I don't know...... The remaining two orders are ......"
"One in Chang'an! One in Kansai! ”
Tiger Prison Pass is also known as Bishui Pass, Chenggao Pass, Gukun Pass!
From the map, from east to west are Yiranshui, Xingyang, and Chenggao. The water is in Chenggao, and the Tiger Prison Pass is naturally also in Chenggao.
The Tiger Pass is connected to Songshan Mountain in the south and the Yellow River is on the verge of the Yellow River in the north!
In "Romance of the Three Kingdoms", there was the battle of Tiger Prison Pass first, and then Cao Cao's defeat of Xingyang, which is obviously impossible.
Historically, Cao Cao wanted to cross the river and attacked Chenggao Tiger Prison on the front line, but he was defeated in Xingyang, and then returned to the sour jujube!
In this book, for the needs of the plot, the locations of Tiger Prison Pass and Xingyang continue to use the map settings in "Romance of the Three Kingdoms"!
