Chapter 734: Planning
Chapter 735
The relocation of the capital was in the process of conspiracy and preparation, and the restless atmosphere that permeated Luoyang City became more and more intense. I don't know if the news of the relocation of the capital was leaked out, and the news of the relocation of the capital began to circulate in Luoyang City, and the people of Luoyang, who had been affected by the storm, immediately became endangered.
For a while, the pressure against moving the capital suddenly rose, but the important ministers of the DPRK and the central government were very puzzled by the frequent rumors of 'good news' on the front line, why did Dong Zhuo choose to move the capital at this time, or that the relocation of the capital was just a rumor? I don't know, but because the relocation of the capital involves the interests of all parties, no matter what party or faction, they all came to see Dong Zhuo and wanted to touch his low.
Dong Zhuo flatly denied that the traitors had sent a large number of spies to Luoyang before the alliance, and they themselves had an intricate network of relationships in Luoyang City, whether it was to listen to the military situation and internal affairs or spread rumors to create chaos, it was not difficult to hear about the military situation and internal affairs or spread rumors to create chaos, and now the 'Han Army' has won successive battles in the eastern part of the country, and the rumors that the capital has suddenly emerged in Luoyang City How can this be true, it must be the news deliberately created after the defeat of the coalition army, wanting to make the important ministers of the court and the central government mess up their positions, and even want to make the people of Luoyang panic.
After two hundred years of development in the Eastern Han Dynasty, Luoyang has already become the world's leading big city, with a population of millions, and the people who have been in Luoyang City for generations are willing to leave their hometowns, and which of the important ministers in the court and even the royal family are willing to abandon the temple and the community.
When it was said that the rumors must be the despicable intentions of the princes of Dongguan, Dong Zhuo immediately showed a distressed look and said: The traitors in the Kwantung region want to destroy Luoyang City in one fell swoop. ”
The ministers all chose to be silent, were they deceived by Dong Zhuo's acting skills? Of course not. A hundred years of accumulation, once destroyed. The Kwantung princes can't do it, but you Dong Zhuo can.
The ministers departed one after another. On that day, the news that Dong Zhuo was going to move the capital spread even more, and the people of Luoyang, who were originally caught in the rumors of moving the capital, were even more panicked all day long.
The situation in Luoyang is getting worse little by little, and Dong Zhuo is now in Luoyang to control the forbidden army of only 10,000 people, in order to deal with the coalition army, he stationed in Luoyang Niu Fu (note Li urged Guo Yan is under the account of Niu Fu) Xiliang main force went to the Mengjin Xiaopingjin line, and was transferred back to Luoyang The Bingzhou army was sent by him to the Xingyang front, and now the situation has become serious, Dong Zhuo immediately found Li Ru to discuss countermeasures.
The courtyard where Li Ru lived was unusually quiet. This kind of quietness has been accustomed to it, and the daily review of documents until late at night, and the maids and soldiers have developed the habit of tiptoeing during the day, but when Li Ru arrived today, he was woken up by the noise outside the house, and got up to investigate, but found that it was the old man who was noisy in front of the guard, and after some inquiry, he learned that it was Dong Zhuo who recruited him to discuss the matter, and the soldiers in his courtyard refused to pass it on the grounds that he was resting, which made Li Ru very angry. After reprimanding the guard, he went back to the house and washed hastily, and then followed Xiangguo's soldiers to Xiangguo's house. I heard the crying of a woman in front of Xiangguo's room from afar, so I naturally knew what was going on, and I went to the front of the house. found that a young girl who was tortured and couldn't look like was carried down by the soldiers, and watched it go, Li Ru walked up the steps and reported loudly: "Xiangguo! ”
"My son-in-law is here. Why don't you just come in? Dong Zhuo's voice sounded in the hall, and Li Ru opened the door and entered. Dong Zhuo sat in the middle of the lobby with a black arrangement, and the main seat was slightly higher. There were four seats on the left and right sides of it, and after signaling Li Ru to sit down on his right hand, Dong Zhuocai said: "I called you here so early, or because of rumors, only you and I know about it, but why is there a storm in the city now, who leaked it?" Find out if you can't, and those ministers are driving me crazy now, think of a proper way to improve it as soon as possible! ”
"Xiangguo, the minister has been checking the source of the rumors, as you said, this fact is top secret, only you and I know about it, and it will never be leaked out, and the minister can't find a clue at all when he investigates."
"Can't find out?" Dong Zhuo was furious, and he almost scolded him for being a waste.
"Although I can't find out who is behind the scenes, but it is so deeply hidden, I can be sure that this news should not be leaked from the Prime Minister's Mansion, but someone with a heart deliberately wants to cause panic among the people of Luoyang, so as to profit from it."
"At this time, with such a despicable plan, who else can there be but the Three Rivers Shi Clan!" Dong Zhuo's expression became cold: "Before moving the capital, the old man first killed these Sanhe Shi clans to vent his anger!" ”
Li Ru never expected that Dong Zhuo would actually rise up with the idea of killing all the Three Rivers Shi clan, and his heart couldn't help but sink. If this is the case, then Dong Zhuoke will really become a rat crossing the street, and everyone will shout and beat him. Li Ru immediately calmed down, he knew Dong Zhuo's character too well, since he said it, he must do it, and he must change the crazy idea of the old man like a way.
"Xiangguo, the most important thing now is to calm people's hearts, if you go to the nobles of Sanhe at this time, I am afraid that you will fall into the tricks of people with intentions."
"Someone with a heart? Are you saying that this matter is also related to the Kwantung Coalition Army? ”
"Even if it has nothing to do with it, it is still the coalition that benefits in the end."
Dong Zhuo snorted coldly, now he really doesn't care about the Kwantung Alliance, but Dong Zhuo is not afraid of Li Ru but is afraid, and he hurriedly persuaded: "If you kill the nobles of the Three Rivers, Xiangguo will completely resent the Shi clan, not only the Kanto Shi clan, but also the Kansai Shi clan, at that time, we will face the catastrophe of annihilation, please think twice, we must not let the Kansai Shi clan stand on Yuan Shao's side anymore." ”
Dong Zhuo snorted coldly: "Even if I don't move the Sanhe Shi Clan, will the Guanxi Shi Clan really help me?" ”
Li Ru was upright and said: "But the Guanxi Shi clan will not directly raise troops against Xiangguo like the Kanto Shi clan." ”
Dong Zhuo hesitated: "Then let the Sanhe Shi clan ignore it and let them do whatever they want?" ”
Li Ruyin smiled and said: "Actually, it's not that the Sanhe clan can't be killed, but if you kill, you have to find an excuse to kill, the so-called division is famous, even if we destroy it, the other clan won't have too much dissatisfaction." ”
Dong Zhuo immediately laughed and said: "The beloved son-in-law already has a strategy? ”
Li Ru smiled and offered a poisonous plan: "Xiangguo wants to kill the Sanhe Shi clan, and he can kill the relatives and sects of the Kwantung rebels, so isn't it justifiable?" Second, that is, to destroy their clans, they will copy their families, these scholars have accumulated for hundreds of years, and their family assets are hugely rich, and they are just confiscated to make military funds! ”
For a long time, both the common people and the scholars have said that the warriors are ruthless, like him Dong Zhuo and Huangfu Song, who are the number one butchers in the mouths of the people, but if you really talk about being vicious, compared with these literati, they are nothing. Dong Zhuo sighed at Li Ru's methods, such a devastating strategy was thought of by him, and said with a smile: "Not bad, not bad, this plan is really good, not only can kill the Sanhe Shi clan to relieve the hatred in his heart, but also confiscate his family funds to help the military funds, and the most important point is that it will not arouse the excitement of the Shi clan, isn't this that, that, killing three birds with one stone!" ”
Dong Zhuo laughed, and then said again, "Since there is a solution to the rumors, let's study the matter of moving the capital, this matter must be planned Zhou Xiang, and there must be no mistakes, do you have any opinion on this matter." ”
"This matter still needs to be considered in the long run, and if you are not careful, the advantages that the Xiliang Army has won so hard will turn into disadvantages."
"Yes, it is indeed time to carefully consider how to prevent the Kwantung coalition army after moving the capital!" (To be continued......)
