059 Troubled times are coming
Because Liu Bei knew that this was the last time he could recruit talents from all over the country, and in the future, the world would be in chaos, and he would never have such a good opportunity again. Therefore, no matter whether it is possible or not, they will send people to conquer, which is called having dates and not dates, and hitting three poles.
The first one was to conquer Taishan Zhuge Gui, and when you heard this surname, you knew whose idea Liu Bei was fighting. Liu Xuande is incomplete without Zhuge Kongming. More than a dozen people were recruited according to their memories, but the road was far from being there for a while.
The first to arrive was Nanyang Huang Zhong Huang Hansheng, this person is just a junior officer, Nanyang is not far from Luoyang, naturally it is a march to come, Liu Bei temporarily appointed Huang Zhong as a hundred generals, and looked at Tai Shici, there is a bit of gossip in his heart, these two people are opponents in history. I took away Tai Shici of the Sun family, and naturally I had to take away Huang Zhong of Liu Biao, which is called balance.
Taishan Zhuge Gui also received a letter from Liu Bei, saying that he was willing to take his younger brother Zhuge Xuan to join Liu Bei, and, most importantly, several sons would naturally follow.
There are also Taishan people Yu Ban and Yangping Weiguo people Le Jin also came to Liu Bei. Although Xu Chu didn't come, he also replied, saying that there were many yellow turban thieves near his family, and he didn't dare to leave without permission, and asked for forgiveness.
Liu Bei knows that this is because he is now famous, and it is getting easier and easier to recruit talents. The heart said that Cao Agui's subordinates, except for the Cao family and the Xiahou family, were all in my hands, and I don't know what will happen to Cao Cao in the future.
Liu Bei is here to prepare for the troubled times, constantly recruiting famous ministers and fierce generals.
The others on the other side were not idle, but none of them had the ability to predict the future, and at this moment, they were all focusing on Luoyang City.
In July, the king of the Bohai Sea was appointed as the king of Chen Liu, so that he could monitor nearby.
At this time, He Jinzhi was complacent, and Yuan Shao persuaded again: "The former Dou Wu wanted to punish the internal favor but was the victim, and his words leaked, and the five battalions and hundreds of officials were afraid of the Chinese people. Today's general has the weight of the uncle, and the brother leads the strong soldiers, and the generals are all handsome and famous, willing to do their best, and the matter is under control. The general should be a general who will eliminate troubles for the world and become famous for future generations. Although Zhou Zhishenbo, what a way! Today, the great line is in the front hall, and the general is forbidden to lead the army, and it is not appropriate to enter and leave the palace province lightly. ”
Liu Bei watched coldly, and there was a saying in later generations that Yuan Shao single-handedly directed it, and the fire between the two factions of eunuchs and relatives merged. Yuan Shao was the driving force behind the chaos at the end of the Han Dynasty. If you look at the results alone, it seems that this is really the case. Now it seems that this statement is not tenable at all, and what about Yuan Shao in the future, let's not mention it first. The current Yuan Shao just wants to kill the eunuchs. If Yuan Shao is really a single-handed director, he is the mastermind behind the fire between the eunuch and his relatives. Then, now there is no need for him to persuade He Jin not to enter the palace province lightly. On the contrary, he wanted to let He Jin die easily, so that Yuan Shao could take advantage of the troubled waters to fish.
In fact, those who are really ambitious, such as Liu Yan, are generally in a hurry to find a place far away from the emperor of the sky and divide it first. As for Liu Bei, he was ambitious.
At this time, Yuan Shao was similar to Cao Cao, still a hot-blooded youth, oh, middle-aged.
And in the past ten years, what He Jin has never forgotten is to promote the family to the family gate.
The family gate valve can last much longer than the relatives. As a relative, there will always be a day when he loses power, and only by elevating his family to a family gate valve can his family remain prosperous.
Therefore, he compared himself to Dou Wu for twenty years, and Yuan Kui to Chen Fan twenty years ago. And believes that as long as he can complete it, the cause that the great general Dou Wu did not complete twenty years ago can be completely accepted by the scholar group by eradicating the eunuchs. Since then, Nanyang He has truly become a family gatekeeper.
And Yuan Kui was originally married to him because Yuan Yu, a member of the Zhongchang servant, was a native of Runan, Yuzhou. has been cared for by him, and he has been a eunuch. Therefore, he also supported the extermination of the eunuchs, hoping to complete Chen Fan's unfinished business, so as to wash away the bad reputation of the eunuchs of Afu.
So He Jin entered the palace and proposed to the Empress Dowager He to abolish the eunuchs, but the Empress Dowager He disagreed, saying: "The central official commands the forbidden province, from ancient times to the present, the story of the Han family cannot be abolished." And the first emperor abandoned the world, why should I work with the scholars? ”
Yes, since ancient times, there has been no reason for a man with a guy to stay with the queen mother of her dead husband in the harem to deal with affairs. This kind of thing will attract criticism from outsiders, haven't you heard of what is called "there are many rights and wrongs in front of the widow's door", the implication is that you do not agree with the abolition of eunuchs.
And Empress Dowager He's mother, Wuyangjun and He Miao, accepted bribes from eunuchs many times, and protected the eunuchs a lot.
In private, he said to the Empress Dowager He many times: "The general kills the left and right, and the dictatorship is weak." ”。
He Miao's original surname was Zhu, and his mother married He Zhen, the father of He Jin, so she changed her surname to He. In other words, He Miao and Wuyangjun actually have no blood relationship with He Jin, but are simply patriarchal brothers and mother and son.
So He Jin is the half-brother of the Empress Dowager He, and He Miao is the half-brother of the Empress Dowager He, the palms and backs of the hands are full of meat, and the Empress Dowager He is sandwiched in the middle, in a dilemma.
Yuan Shao and others also offered advice to He Jin, summoned more fierce generals and heroes from all directions, and led troops to the capital to threaten the queen mother.
Chen Lin, the chief bookkeeper, admonished: "It is easy to say 'that is, the deer is safe', and the proverb is 'covering the eyes and catching birds'." The husband and the small things cannot be deceived to achieve the will, and the major affairs of the country can be deceitful? Today's general is always mighty, holding the troops, the dragon and the tiger are stepping, and the height is in the heart. The husband violates the way of the economy, and the heavens and men are obedient, and the anti-commission is a sharp weapon, and even solicits foreign help. The gathering of soldiers, the strong are the heroes, the so-called inverted fighting, giving people a handle, the merit will not be achieved, and the grass is chaotic. ”
He Jin didn't listen.
Cao Cao smiled when he heard this: "Eunuch officials, ancient and modern should have them, but the lord of the world should not be a false favor, so that it is so." If you punish their crimes, they should punish the evil, and one jailer is enough, so why call foreign generals one after another? If you want to punish it, it will be revealed, and I will see its defeat. ”
Of course, He Jin didn't know how bullish Cao Cao would be in the future, but he still didn't listen.
In fact, the worries of these two people cannot be said to be unreasonable. But as long as He Jin doesn't die, there is no problem.
The so-called recruitment of foreign soldiers, in fact, there are only three ways, and the rest are just sending people out to recruit soldiers.
These three people are Taishou Qiao Mao in Dong County, Ding Yuan, the commander of Wu Meng, in Hanoi County, and Dong Zhuo, the former general and state pastor, in Hedong County.
He Jin wanted to summon the former general Dong Zhuo into Beijing. Zheng Tai objected and said to He Jin: "Dong Zhuo is forbearant and unwilling. If you take advantage of the government and grant great things, you will be ferocious and will endanger the court. Ming Gong is pro-morality, according to the power of Ah Heng, and is determined to eliminate the guilty. And things will change, and Yin Jian is not far away. ”
Lu Zhi also admonished: "Zhi Su knows that Dong Zhuo is a person, with a kind face and a ruthless heart, fierce and difficult to control, once he enters the forbidden court, he will cause disaster." It's better not to stop and not come, so as not to cause chaos. ”
So, He Jin ordered Dong Zhuo to go from Hedong County to Guanzhong Shanglinyuan.
Zheng Tai has planned many times, Chen Shiwu is anxious about several things, He Jin can't use it, Zheng Tai is abandoning the official. Xun You, a native of Yingchuan, said: "He Gong is not easy to assist." ”
He Jin ordered Ding Yuan, the commander of Wumeng, to go from Hanoi County to Mengjin, and burned the garrison military quarters at the ferries in Mengjin and other places, so that everyone in Luoyang City could see the fire. Then Ding Yuan sent someone to Luoyang to write a letter, saying that his soldiers had joined the Montenegrin army in order to crusade against the eunuchs. declared that he would kill the eunuchs, so as to create a momentum to force the Empress Dowager He to issue an edict to remove the eunuchs.
Dongjun Taishou Qiaomao led the troops to kill into Henan Yin, and settled in Chenggao, only more than 300 miles away from Luoyang, and it can be reached in two days.
Empress Dowager He received Ding Yuan's letter, but still refused to issue an edict to abolish the eunuchs, but instead sent He Miao to persuade He Jin.
