Guanzhong!

Zuo Fengling's battle was also compressed near Liyi City with the continuous deployment of Dong Zhuo's troops.

The Southern Xiongnu and Dong Zhuo's armies fought several more battles one after another, and both sides suffered losses on both sides.

Luan Tiqiangqu Yijing felt the strength of the Xiliang army, and it was impossible to defeat the Xiliang army and kill other places to continue plundering.

As he was considering his next move, he soon received a message from the north.

"It's not good to be alone in big things, the north ...... We were attacked by the Han cavalry, the king of the right valley was killed, the Golden Deer Fortress was lost, the Jiuyuan City was lost, and the Meiji was lost......"

The person who reported the news was crying with tears in his eyes, and his face was full of misery.

"This ...... What's going on? Luan Tiqiang stood up suddenly, his right hand trembling and pointing at the person who reported the news, as if he couldn't believe his ears.

The messenger wiped a handful of tears and replied: "Shan Yu, after you went south, a Han cavalry set off from the north of Liangzhou, first sneaked up on the Liwang Department of Yougu, captured Jinlusai, and then went all the way to the east to loot and burn, and finally hit Meiji, killed all our cattle, sheep and clansmen, and asked Shan Yu to return to help immediately, otherwise my Huns are all finished." ”

"Damn! Damn it! Damn Han people, ah......" Luan Ti Qiangqu only felt that the blood in his chest rushed straight to his head, and the whole person fell backwards.

Luan Tibao, Luan Tihu Chuquan, Zuogu Liwang Hada and others who heard the news rushed over one after another, and they all let out a painful whistling sound after a while.

There are even people who want to go out of the city and fight with the Xiliang army.

However, it was stopped by the awakened Luan Tiqiang Canal.

"Forget it alone, we want revenge, we want to kill all the Han people in Guan......"

There are Huns who will say unwillingly with red eyes.

Luan Tiqiangqu closed his eyes, his face was miserable, and said: "Of course we can't calculate it like this, we remember this account, from now on, my Great Huns and the Great Han are incompatible, but now what we have to do is to return north immediately, otherwise we will really have no clansmen and no place to recuperate." ”

Luan Tiqiangqu didn't want to fight a decisive battle with the Xiliang army, but Dong Zhuo's army was too much, and it was constantly being mobilized, and there were many fierce generals, and it was their Huns who suffered a decisive battle with the Xiliang army here.

After Luan Tiqiangqu finished speaking, there was a sigh below, and he was unwilling.

This time, I didn't grab many things in the customs, and I broke a lot of people, and the nest was stabbed by the Xiliang Army, so I walked away.

If you change any of the Huns, you will not be reconciled.

But what happens if you are not reconciled.

The Huns abandoned the city overnight and retreated north.

Dong Zhuo, who was in Chang'an, also received the news one step earlier than Luan Tiqiangqu.

However, the difference is that the results of the battle report he received were not as great as those received by Luan Tiqiangqu.

Because at that time, Zhang Xiu and Zhao Fan just attacked the Liwang Department of the Right Valley and took the chicken deer stopper.

However, Rao is like this, which also makes Dong Zhuo laugh unscrupulously and happily.

"Hahahaha, good! Well played, well killed! Dong Zhuo picked up the battle report he put down and read it again, slapped his palm on the table and laughed:

"I knew that Wenhe would surprise us, and if it was so, I didn't expect him to be so expected, he guessed that the Huns would go south, and sent Zhang Xiu and Zhao Fan to merge with the state.

The Southern Huns, these dogs, are miscellaneous, and they die well, and they all have to die. ”

Li Ru also received the news and rushed over, congratulating: "Congratulations to the prime minister, so the Southern Xiongnu should retreat and return to the north, and the general of Guanzhong will be decided." ”

Dong Zhuo entered the letter, and asked Li Ru with a smile in his eyes: "Wen Wei, do you think it is necessary for us to pursue?" Do you want to take the opportunity to cut off the Southern Xiongnu in one fell swoop, and take advantage of the situation to collect Shangjun, Xihe, Wuyuan and Shuofang. ”

Even if Dong Zhuo is a bastard, he knows that these places are the homeland of the Han people, and he completely wiped out the Southern Xiongnu, not only in addition to a threat, but also in terms of prestige.

With this great achievement, you can take the opportunity to force the little emperor of the Liu family to step down and ascend to the throne of the Ninth Five-Year Supreme by yourself.

That's why Dong Zhuo asked.

Li Ru shook his head and said: "The time for the prime minister has not yet come, Liangzhou has not been completely pacified, Ma Teng, Ma Chao and his son have not been eliminated, Han Sui has not been beheaded, and at this time, a complete decisive battle with the Southern Xiongnu will lose a lot of our soldiers and horses, and the gains outweigh the losses." ”

Although the four counties of Shangjun, Xihe, Wuyuan and Shuofang are very large, they are relatively barren.

Moreover, the population of the Han people in it is not large, and in addition to having a bit of strategic value, taking this place cannot bring too many practical benefits to Dong Zhuo.

On the contrary, it may cost half of the Xiliang soldiers and horses, so Li Ru does not approve.

Zhang Xiu and Zhao Fan went to play with the sneak attack, and they didn't get entangled after the fight, which is naturally no problem.

But when the Huns were really forced to fight to the death with no way out, it would be different.

Dong Zhuo couldn't help but feel a little pity, but he still asked unwillingly: "You can't just be so cheap with these wolf cubs, you can't just let them quit Guanzhong easily." ”

A trace of ruthlessness flashed in Li Ru's eyes and said: "Prime Minister, of course we can't let them retreat easily, Guanzhong is not something they can come and leave when they want, of course we have to retaliate and hurt them." ”

"Okay, you can arrange it, I estimate that soon this bastard Luan Tiqiangqu will receive the news, and he should withdraw his troops." Dong Zhuo regained his joy and excitement.

Li Ru nodded, he had long predicted that the Southern Xiongnu would retreat, so during this time, he not only sent troops to Liyi to confront the Southern Xiongnu head-on, but also quietly sent the elite to ambush by the straight road out of the pass.

Take precautions, take one step and see three steps, he Li Ru is not bad.

Therefore, as soon as the Southern Xiongnu withdrew, the Western Liang army immediately received the news, and the next day the army went north to pursue.

Soon chased out of Guanzhong.

The Southern Xiongnu escaped into the straight road, and then went down the straight road to the west, bypassing the Luoshui without a bridge, and went forward for five miles, when suddenly the rolling stones on the two wings of the mountain fell.

Countless boulders rushed down and smashed into the army of the Southern Huns, instantly scattering the ranks of the Southern Xiongnu army.

The Southern Huns wailed.

Then from the grass on the left flank rushed out countless Western Liang Jing Riders.

"Damn, there's trouble with the Han people, let's go......"

Seeing the banner of the incoming army clearly, most of the Southern Huns did not take the initiative to greet them, but urged the horses to run forward.

Because this elite cavalry is Dong Jin's, Dong Jin fought against the Huns in Licheng, with twice the number of troops, and also fought a battle loss of one to two.

Let the Huns know his strength, naturally few dare to fight him.

Moreover, the Southern Huns did not know how many Han people were still in ambush, so Luan Tiqiang Qu did not order a U-turn, but took the lead in rushing through the ambush area directly in front.

Sure enough, within three miles, another cavalry came out, this is the Xiliang general Fan Chou, the number is not much, only three thousand.

But the Huns did not dare to fight with them, and fled north even more quickly.

Whether it was Fan Chou or Dong Jin, he didn't pursue much, and after killing a few times, leaving a total of six or seven thousand Huns, he collected his troops and returned south.

"Good! Hahaha, if it's really destiny for me, the wolf cubs of the Southern Huns have run away, and the Kanto region has also started a war, and now I can finally show my face. "Dong Zhuo's face has been red recently, and he has won a big victory against the Southern Xiongnu, and the traitors have also been eliminated.

Now that I have received the latest information from Kanto, Yuan Shao, Yuan Shu, Cao Cao, Liu Bei, and Gongsun Zan have allied, and the troops have attacked Xu Ding and Tao Qian in three ways.

The alliance of the five major princes advanced again and again, and the fight was so that Xu Ding only had the power to parry, but had no heart to fight back, which was really a big piece of people's hearts.

When the Kanto region fought, Dong Zhuo didn't need to pretend to be poisoned and unconscious, and he could finally go out to meet people again.

Finally able to go out again to show off his majesty, Dong Zhuo was of course happy.

Li Ru also wanted to persuade Dong Zhuo to let him wait for a while, and it was best for Xu Ding to be completely defeated.

But Dong Zhuo, who has been holding back for so long, has lost patience.

Especially when the Southern Xiongnu were defeated and fled north, it was the time to harvest fame and increase prestige, where was he willing to follow.

Li Ru had no choice but to agree.

Soon the news of Dong Zhuo's awakening spread in Chang'an City, and the people couldn't help but sigh secretly.

Why didn't Dong Fatzi die!

This scourge is still alive, who saved him, which bastard.

However, only those families were calm.

Dong Zhuo pretended to be dizzy, and they pretended to be poisoned, but they never had a certificate.

Now that Dong Zhuo is out of the house, he is more vigilant in his heart.

However, Dong Zhuo had just reappeared in front of the world, and one thing ruined his interest.

There was an earthquake in Chang'an, the earth dragon rolled, and there was an earthquake in Guanzhong.

The epicenter is in Jing Zhaoyin.

Fortunately, the intensity of this earthquake was not very high, and most of the houses in Chang'an City only in the west city collapsed, and the ground sank for a mile.

In other urban areas, there are not many houses that have collapsed, and there are no fires or anything like that.

"Damn it!"

Dong Zhuo was called a bad luck, and he was very happy, but suddenly there was an earthquake, which made him depressed.

Because of this earthquake, some rumors quickly spread in Chang'an City.

It is said that it was caused by Dong Zhuo's scourge, and it was God who saw that he was not dead, so he became angry and wanted to use the earth dragon to take Dong Zhuo away.

"Come on, catch me, whoever dares to spread rumors, catch them all, and destroy his three clans!" Dong Zhuo said angrily:

"It must be the tricks and feet of those families who are secretly doing it, check it out for me, and you must kill all these families who are secretly making trouble!"

"Prime Minister can't!" Li Ru persuaded:

"Prime Minister, it's better to block this matter than to be sparse, it's difficult for us to find out what the people of the family are doing in secret, on the contrary, such a wanton arrest will give them the truth to make trouble, and it will confirm people's slanderous words, we should find another way to deal with it!"

Dong Zhuo said: "If you think of any way, whoever dares to spread the word will kill me, if there is one, kill one, kill one thousand, kill one thousand if there is one thousand, kill one hundred thousand if there is one hundred thousand, and kill until no one dares to spread it." ”

"Prime Minister! In fact, we can guide the people that the occurrence of natural disasters is all related to the Son of Heaven. Li Ru said gloomily:

"Prime Minister, why don't we declare to the outside world that this is the fault of the Son of Heaven, because the Son of Heaven of the Han Dynasty is not restless in virtue, and even the drought does not stop, and the Son of Heaven does not stop chaotic in the world, so that the heavens are angry and send down natural disasters and earth dragons to attack Guanzhong.

The Son of Heaven should have issued a call to the world. ”

Dong Zhuo's face changed suddenly when he heard this, revealing a hint of playfulness.

"Well, that's good, if there is a disaster in the world, it should be the Son of Heaven."

This is the case in all dynasties, as long as there is a catastrophe in the world, the officials of the scholar clan will accuse it of saying that it is the fault of the Son of Heaven, and someone will always take the blame.

And the Son of Heaven, as the co-master of the world, has naturally become the ideal backer.

Now that Li Ru mentioned it, Dong Zhuo felt that it was feasible.

Then Li Ru said: "And Prime Minister, didn't Xu Ding keep saying in the newspaper that it is easy to cause locust plagues after a long drought?" If the Son of Heaven makes a locust plague after the edict is issued, does this mean that God is dissatisfied with Liu and does not approve of him as the emperor, we can make a fuss from it. ”

Dong Zhuo has not wanted to be the emperor for a day or two, and he has long been dissatisfied with being the prime minister of the country.

Dong Zhuo's car driving had already exceeded the control, so Li Ru did not persuade him, but on the contrary, he was clearing the obstacles for him.

Because he also hopes that Dong Zhuo can really ascend the throne and become the emperor, then he, as Dong Zhuo's son-in-law, will naturally become a concubine of the new dynasty, and it will not be a problem to worship the marquis.

The next day, Dong Zhuo walked on the Central Avenue, followed by a group of civil and military ministers.

Emperor Liu Xie sat on the dragon chair, and after everyone finished saluting, the palace sang to the eunuchs: "If there is something to play, there is nothing to retreat!" ”

As soon as the eunuch finished speaking, someone stood up, saluted Liu Xie, and said, "Your Majesty, the minister has a book!" ”

"What's the matter with Aiqing?" Liu Xie glanced at the official and asked with a slight frown.

This man replied: "Your Majesty yesterday there was a dragon in the pass, destroying the land and destroying countless people, but it is a glowing fire, away from chaos, it is the revelation of God to my Han, the minister is willing to ask Your Majesty to solve the problems for the Han Dynasty, for the benefit of the people, the next sin has been edicted, so that the anger of the gods will dissipate, let the roar of hell be quiet." ”

The person who said this was an official of Qin Tianjian promoted by Dong Zhuo, and when he came up, he went straight to the point, without any drag.

Sure enough, Liu Xie above and the officials loyal to Dahan in the hall all changed their color, revealing a trace of warm anger.

If the eyes could be killed, at this time this official was killed several times.

is so bold that he actually blames the Son of Heaven.

If it were a change of era, the three princes and nine kings would naturally be happy to let the Son of Heaven take the blame, but now at this very moment, they are naturally not willing to let the prestige of the Son of Heaven be swept away and make the Han family even more shaky.

So Wang Yun, Yang Biao and others did not speak out.

Even if Dong Zhuo was promoted or the officials of the Dong faction did not make a sound, but focused on Dong Zhuo.

Dong Zhuo said that they would come out to denounce the Son of Heaven, and everything was based on Dong Zhuo's horse.

Dong Zhuo glanced at all the palace members, and saw that no one came out to support Liu Xie, the puppet emperor, so he smiled proudly:

"Your Majesty thinks that this proposal is very appropriate, if Your Majesty can stand up and petition the gods for forgiveness, and can alleviate the suffering of the people, then it will be the wisest monarch of my Han Dynasty in the past four hundred years, and it will be the blessing of the people and the blessing of the society."

Liu Xie sat on the dragon chair with his hands shrunk in his sleeves, his nails pinched in the flesh, he was about to bleed, his eyes were closed, his heart was like a knife, and he was sad and indignant.

But in the end, he opened his eyes and said with a worried expression: "What do you think?" ”

Liu Xie wanted to find some different voices and see where my Han's loyal city was.

At this time, haven't the loyal ministers of the Han Dynasty come out to defend me, the son of heaven?

However, he was disappointed, it was an idiot to come out at this time to disagree with Dong Zhuo.

Therefore, those who are really loyal to the Han family will not speak out.

The Dong faction echoed and said: "Please Your Majesty has issued an edict to seek blessings for the people of the world." ”
