Chapter 334: Liu Hongping's optimistic military parade
In the fifth year of Zhongping, August.
He Jin has been recruiting heroes in the past few years and reserving soldiers and horses in various places. and co-opted the courtiers and tried their best to control the Luoyang army. And he has written many times, and the prince is identified as the crown prince.
Liu Hong found that this matter was not good, and planned to divide the military power of his relatives headed by He Jin.
Liu Bian was frivolous, Liu Hong was not happy, he always thought that Liu Bian was not enough to rule the world.
The idea of abolishing Chang Liyu has always existed in Liu Hong's heart, but this matter is important and needs to be carefully planned.
In August, Liu Hong ordered the recruitment of a military organization in the West Garden, with eight lieutenants. It is called the Eighth School of the West Garden.
Liu Hong was a captain of the military academy with the sturdy and mighty Xiaohuangmen Jian Shuo, who was well versed in martial arts, and commanded the eighth school of the West Garden. In this way, He Jin's military power was restricted.
In this regard, the general He Jin was restrained by Jian Shuo.
Yuan Shao, the general of the Tiger Ben Zhonglang, was named the lieutenant of the Chinese Military Academy.
Tun Cavalry Captain Bao Hong was awarded the rank of Lower Military Cadet.
Cao Cao was awarded the rank of lieutenant.
Zhao Rong was awarded the title of Lieutenant of the Left Colonel of the Auxiliary Army.
Feng Fang was awarded the title of Right Lieutenant of the Auxiliary Army.
Counselor Xia Mu was awarded the title of Captain Zuo.
Chun Yuqiong was awarded the title of Right Colonel.
Although Jian Shuo was in charge of the military power in the imperial court, he was still a little afraid of He Jin, so he talked to Liu Hong with the regular attendants and asked him to send He Jin to attack Bian Zhang and Han Sui.
Liu Hong listened to them, and rewarded He Jin with 100 military vehicles and axes in the court.
He Jin secretly knew that this was a conspiracy. So Shangjuan asked Yuan Shaodong to attack Xu and Yan Erzhou to recruit troops, and when Yuan Shao returned, he would send troops to delay time.
After He Jin returned to the mansion, he was very angry and sought advice from left and right for him.
The fake Sima Wu Tang said to He Jin: ""Taigong Liutao" has the Son of Heaven and the generals, and it can intimidate the Quartet. ”
He Jin thought it was very reasonable, so he entered the palace and told Liu Hong about it. In order to increase Liu Hong's trust in him.
Liu Hong agreed, and ordered He Jin to send troops from all directions, and said that Wuping was optimistic.
And built a big altar in Pingxing, built a twelve-layer colorful canopy on it, ten zhang high, built a small altar in the northeast of the altar, and then built a nine-layer canopy, nine zhang high, horizontal infantry, knights tens of thousands of people, camped for a formation.
In October, Liu Hong optimistically held a military parade in Luoyangping.
At this time, Liu Hong did not look like a prime man in his thirties at all, but like an old man in his last years.
Since the Yellow Turban Uprising in Zhang Jiao, bad things have happened one after another, making him haggard.
Sitting in the deep palace, he could feel the Han Dynasty's rivers and mountains shaking.
At the beginning of the parade, Liu Hong was stationed under the big canopy, and He was stationed under the small canopy, sacrificing to the heavens and the earth.
After the ceremony, Liu Hong was dressed in armor and horses, calling himself the "Supreme General".
Liu Hong held a sword in his hand, dressed in gorgeous armor, and returned in three circles. The edict ordered He Jin to lead the whole army to garrison Pingping.
After the parade, Liu Hong summoned Gai Xun, a famous general of Xiliang.
After Gai Xun abandoned his official position and returned to his hometown, he was transferred by Liu Hongzheng to be the captain of the school.
"Why is the world so chaotic?"
Liu Hong asked Gai Xun.
"Xingchen's children disturb it." Gai Xun was not afraid of Zhang Rang, Zhao Zhong, Jian Shuo and others sitting opposite him. said to Liu Hong without hesitation.
After Zhang Rang, Zhao Zhong and others heard this, their hearts jumped.
In the past, many ministers impeached them. None of them were afraid, but in today's atmosphere, they were a little scared when they were impeached by Gaixun.
"Captain of the army, how to explain the words of the captain? Have you committed any more crimes in the past two years? Liu Hong turned his gaze to Jian Shuo and asked why.
Jian Shuo's eyes dodged, fearful, and he didn't know what to do. I hate Gai Xun in my heart, and after today, I will definitely rectify him.
Looking at Zhang Rang, Zhao Zhong, Duan Gui and others, they all bowed their heads. Liu Hong already understood in his heart.
"I am optimistic about Chen Bing, and I have more treasures to bait, what is it?" Not wanting to worry about Zhang Rang, Jian Shuo and others, Liu Hong asked Gai Xun again.
"The minister heard that 'the first king Yaode did not watch the army', and now Kou is far away, and setting up near Chen is not enough to show Guoyi, and the soldiers are ruthless."
Gai Xun said. This is a direct admonition, and there is a warning to Liu Hong in the tone.
After the ups and downs, Liu Hong was already calm, if it was before, maybe he would have let the left and right Yulin pull Gai Xun out and cut it, but now he didn't, but stroked his beard and smiled.
"Good, I hate to see the king, and the ministers have nothing to say at the beginning."
Liu Hong praised Gai Xun, no one in the Manchu Dynasty dared to speak to him like this, he now recalled those old ministers who dared to speak directly, and sighed silently in his heart.
When a person released that courage in an instant, Liu Hong completely saw that person's loyalty and patriotism.
But what is gone, can never be recovered.
At this time, Liu Hong had a feeling of hating Gai Xun for seeing each other. Just like how he felt when he summoned Liu Fan after the Yellow Turban Uprising.
Gai Xun heard Liu Hong's praise, was silent, and got up to salute Liu Hong.
"Your Majesty, the hussar general is in the Beidazhi River, and the cavalry under his command is brave and fierce, and Rong Di does not dare to offend. Now General Fu Song and General Dong Zhuo rushed to the aid of Chen Cang, and they should be able to regain victory. However, the thief Zhang Chun of Youzhou dared to claim the king, killed the court officials, and saw no His Majesty, so he should order the hussar general to conquer Zhang Chun. In order to solve the great trouble of the henchmen and save the people of Youzhou. ”
At this time, Guangluxun Cui Lie asked Liu Hongshang.
Cui Lie was originally Situ, but because of a vision in the sky in Luoyang, he was dismissed.
Cao Song, the former lieutenant, was dismissed from his post as lieutenant because of a lunar eclipse.
The court of the Eastern Han Dynasty was like this, as soon as there was any vision in the sky, the three dukes would take turns to open the knife.
Duan Cheng, Yang Ci, Liu Kuan, Zhang Wen and others are all like this.
"That's what I mean." Liu Hong nodded and said: "Tell the emperor's brother to send troops to pacify the three counties of Yanbei and send Zhang Chun's head to Luoyang."
The failure of reform for the sake of the country and the people is not a sin of humanity and cannot be done.
After the failure of the change, he felt that the world was confusing.
Liu Hong still remembers the last sentence that Liu Fan said to him: "Losing the country and the brother, the people are useless."
"Ahem, ahem, ahem......"
Suddenly, Liu Hong coughed heavily.
"Your Majesty......"
Zhang Rang hurriedly got up and came to Liu Hong's side to deliver silk to Liu Hong.
The ministers hurriedly got up and looked at Liu Hong worriedly.
Liu Hong covered his mouth with silk silk, stretched out his hand and waved, signaling the ministers to leave.
With the support of the palace maid, Liu Hong got into the dragon car, and Zhang Rang, Zhao Zhong, Jian Shuo and others followed him and drove towards the palace.
After Liu Hong left, the ministers lamented.
He Jin also got up to leave.
At this time, Yuan Shao came to Gai Xun to befriend Gai Xun, and Zongzheng and Liu Yu were also pulled together.
"I still see the above, the upper is very smart, but the disadvantages are in the left and right ears, if the total force is to punish the traitor, and then recruit the handsome, to rejuvenate the Han family, and retire after success, wouldn't it be happy?"
Gai Xun whispered to Liu Yu and Yuan Shao.
Yuan Shao and Liu Yu agreed with Gai Xun's words, and then became accomplices.
After Liu Hong returned to the palace, he prepared to issue an edict ordering Gai Xun to enter the Qing as a lieutenant.
After Jian Shuo found out, he was deeply jealous, and he found Zhang Wen, the lieutenant of Sili, and asked Zhang Wen to play Liu Hong.
Zhang Wen did not dare to impeach Gai Xun for no reason, so he recommended Gai Xun as Jing Zhaoyin. Let Gai Xun leave Luoyang.
Since Gai Xun was not far from Luoyang, Liu Hong sent an edict to Chang'an to ask Gai Xun's opinion whenever he encountered military secrets.
Count and reward, and see your cronies, on the right side of the court.
