Chapter 359: Dong Zhuo's Old Department's Arrangement

Duan Xuan suddenly remembered the rumor, Dong Zhuo had seen Sima Fang's son Sima Yi wolf Gu Zhixiang, and he had repeatedly killed Sima Yi, how could Sima Fang beg Wang Yun to say many good words in front of Dong Zhuo, Dong Zhuo's ears were soft, he listened to Wang Yun's words, and let Sima Yi go. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

Duan Xuan was shocked in his heart, this kind of thing would rather be credible than not, Sima and his son should not stay, and this is the condition that Jin Liang gave himself, if he wants to completely serve Jin Liang, this letter of nomination must be handed over.

Duan Xuan quickly mobilized 4,000 elite horsemen to surround Sima Fang's mansion, Sima Fang and his six youngest sons were all killed, only the thirteen-year-old Sima Yi got out of the dog hole, pretended to be a beggar, escaped from Chang'an City, and fled straight south.

When Jin Liang learned the news that Sima Yi had escaped again, he couldn't help but stroking his palms and laughing: "Sima Zhongda, could it be that you also have a pig's foot halo, and with an immortal little powerhouse like you to stir up the situation, this world hegemony is really a bit interesting!" ”

But it was said that when Li Dao and Guo Yan received the news that Dong Zhuo was killed by Yan Xing and Wang Yun, Li Dao and Guo Yan were disheartened and wanted to abandon Hangu Pass, disband the troops, and flee in all directions, they didn't even think of going to avenge Dong Zhuo, and even Yan Xing's concubine Yang Xiu couldn't care about finding it out and killing it, and later heard that Luoyang was occupied by Jin Liang's surprise attack, Li Dao and Guo Yan wanted to lead the troops to surrender to Jin Liang, after all, it was Jin Liang who avenged their lord Dong Zhuo.

And Jia Xu is now under the command of Jin Liang, according to common sense, no one persuaded them to raise the flag to confront Jin Liang, but Zhang Ji of the Tun army Hongnong died under Jin Liang's halberd because of his nephew Zhang Xiu, and because his beloved wife Zou was taken by Jin Liang, and Jin Liang's enmity was not shared, I heard that Li Dao and Guo Yan wanted to take refuge in Jin Liang, so they rode to Hangu Pass alone in the starry night and persuaded Li Dao and Guo Yan to raise the flag against Jin Liang.

Zhang Ji said to Li Dao and Guo Yan, Jin Liang is different from our ancestor Dong Xiangguo, Jin Liang attaches great importance to the voice of the people, attaches great importance to military discipline, in their central army, can not govern the army, can not guarantee the military discipline of the generals under their command has no future, the team with very bad military discipline is that even the generals and soldiers were cleaned out by Jin Liang, like Wei Xu, Song Xian's generation, following Jin Liang for many years, Jin Liang is not just killing if he says, Li Dao, Guo Yan you two generals, you look at the military discipline of the soldiers under your command, You have taken such a soldier to Jin Liang's command, with Jin Liang's character who can't rub sand in his eyes, although he has temporarily accepted you, but as soon as he completely controls the Sili region, he will open his mind to you.

Zhang Ji's entry point of persuading Li Dao and Guo Yan is like hitting the seven inches of a snake, just saying that Li Dao and Guo Bi are worried in their hearts, Li Dao and Guo Bi are the same as Dong Zhuo, they all connived at their subordinates to harm the township to ensure their morale when they are about to fight, in fact, this kind of morale is a kind of banditry, Li Dao and Guo Yan have fought with Jin Liang's Central Army, and after a little comparison, they found that the military discipline of the Xiliang Army is different from the military discipline of Jinliang's Central Army.

After thinking about it, Li Dao and Guo Yan completely broke off their plan to serve Jin Liang, and instead planned to join forces with Zhang Ji and Fan Fu, and then attack Luoyang and take Luoyang City.

Li Dao, Guo Yan, Zhang Ji, and Fan Chou are also preparing to nominate Dong Zhuo's son-in-law Zhonglang to serve as Dong Zhuo's successor, continue to raise the banner of the Xiliang Army, and survive for a while in the hinterland of Sili.

In the hall of the Commander's Mansion, Jin Liang stared at the sand table on the table, and muttered: "If Li Dao, Guo Yan, Zhang Ji, Fan Chou, Dong Yue, and Niu Fu gather together, what should we do?!" ”

Guo Jia stood aside and grinned: "The lord is not worried, Luoyang and Chang'anjing were captured by our Central Army, and these Xiliang troops will be like turtles in an urn, and sooner or later they will be captured alive by us." ”

Jin Liang shook his head and said: "When they gather together, there are more than 100,000 horses, and the troops we put in the Sili area are only 100,000, although our combat strength is better than them, they have no way back and must have the courage to break the cauldron and sink the boat, I am afraid that it will be a bitter battle of killing 1,000 people and injuring 800 people, I don't like this kind of war of attrition." ”

Guo Jia pointed to the sand table and said with a slight smile: "Lord, look, Li Dao and Guo Yantun are in Hangu Pass, Zhang Jitun is in Hongnong, Fan Choutun is in Shaanxi County, Dong Yueshang is in the west of Luoyang City, Niu Futun is in Huayin, these troops are one or two hundred miles apart, if they want to gather together, it will take at least four or five days, and we will have time to operate calmly." What's more, now that Dong Zhuoxin is dead, Luoyang Chang'an is occupied by us, and the Xiliang army is panicking, it is the best time for us to use a plan. ”

Guo Jia personally went to Dong Yue's military camp in the west of Luoyang City, and dedicated Wang Yun's head to Dong Yue, and then it was a coercion and temptation, Dong Yue was unwilling to become a puppet of Li Dao, Guo Yan and others like Niu Fu, he was grateful to Jin Liang for killing Wang Yun to avenge Dong Zhuo, so he led more than 20,000 Xiliang veterans to serve Jin Liang.

After Jia Xu persuaded Duan Xuan to dedicate Chang'an City, he went to Huayin non-stop to persuade Niu Fu. Niu Fu was originally a guy with no ideas, and Jia Xu was clever in his tongue, so that Niu Fu saw that following Li Dao, Guo Yan, Zhang Ji, and Fan Chou was a dead end. Only following Jin Liang, although he cannot reach the status of Dong Zhuo's heir, he is still a rich man. Niu Fu was originally a guy with no ambitions, and he was fooled by Jia Xu for a while, and he was determined to serve Jin Liang.

Li Dao and Guo Yan guarded at Hangu Pass, waiting for Zhang Ji, Fan Chou, Niu Fu, and Dong Yue, but unexpectedly, Xu Rong led 20,000 horses and sent troops from Hedong County, crossed the Yellow River, and inserted Hongnong. blocked the road for Zhang Ji and Fan Choudong to go, but the Niu Auxiliary Department swaggered through the past, while Dong Yue's more than 20,000 people and horses followed the gallop road from Luoyang to Hangu Pass, moving rapidly, Dong Yue's Department arrived at Hangu Pass first, and Niu Auxiliary Department arrived later.

Li Dao and Guo Yan knew that Niu Fu and Dong Yuebu had been rebelled by the Central Army overnight, and Li Dao and Guo Yan also put on a grand ceremony to welcome the arrival of Dong Yue and Niu Fubu.

When Niu Fu's more than 20,000 people and horses entered the Hangu Pass. Dong Yue and Niu Fu's soldiers shouted in unison, Dong Yuebu controlled the east gate of Hangu Pass, Zhao Yun and Zhang Liao, who followed behind Dong Yue's department, each led 10,000 horses to attack and kill, Niu Fu controlled the west gate of Hangu Pass, and Zhang Jaw and Huang Zhong, who followed them, each led 10,000 horses to attack and kill. 80,000 horses to deal with Li Dao, Guo Yan's 40,000 horses, like a lion fighting rabbits, within a day, the battle ended, Li Dao, Guo Yan's 40,000 horses killed more than 10,000 people, the rest all surrendered, Li Dao was captured by Zhao Yunsheng, Guo Yan was captured by Huang Zhongsheng.

80,000 horses surrounded Hangu Pass, so the news of the defeat of Li Dao and Guo Yan did not reach Zhang Ji and Fan Chou, when Zhang Ji and Fan Chou joined forces, Xu Rongbu, who was responsible for blocking them, pretended to be invincible and retreated in the direction of Hangu Pass.

Zhang Ji, Fan Chou and Xu Rong fought and ran, after three or four days, they arrived at the city of Hangu Pass, Dong Yue and Niu Fu led 20,000 horses to kill, dispersed Xu Rong's department, and led Zhang Ji and Fan Chou into Hangu Pass, Zhang Ji and Fan Chou looked up at the head of Hangu Pass, and vaguely saw Li Dao and Guo Yan standing at the head of the city, they did not suspect him, and they all happily strode into Hangu Pass, they did not know that Li Dao and Guo Yan were behind Dian Wei, Wang Yue and other warriors with sharp blades to threaten, Li Dao and Guo Yan did not dare to resist, so they had to cooperate.

When Zhang Ji and Fan Chou all entered the Hangu Pass, they found that they had entered the Jedi, and all the commanding heights of the Hangu Pass were controlled by the elite crossbowmen of the Central Army, and the cold crossbow arrows were aimed at them, if they insisted on not surrendering, ten thousand arrows were fired together, and they would all become hedgehogs.

Zhang Ji saw a person standing on the head of the city, and he poured blood into his pupils, because that tall man was Jin Liang, who killed his nephew and robbed his beloved wife, how could he, Zhang Ji, be willing to surrender to such an enemy, he launched a suicide attack, and shot his bow and arrows at the head of the city in vain.

Jin Liang saw that Zhang Ji was stubborn, and snorted coldly: "Only remove the first evil, and don't ask the rest!" "The elite crossbow archer trained by the Central Army for three years lifted the crossbow, aimed at Zhang Ji, a hundred crossbows were fired, the arrows were like black stars, and the arrows were shot over, Zhang Ji hurriedly picked up the spear and dialed the arrows, how could a hundred crossbows be aimed at him alone, the arrows came intensively, when he was hit by the first arrow, the action slowed down, and the second and third arrows were no longer spared.

Zhang Ji and more than 1,000 of his henchmen died under the crossbow arrows of the Central Army, and the other soldiers panicked inexplicably and quickly knelt down to beg for surrender, while Fan Chou saw that Zhang Ji had hundreds of arrow feathers inserted in his body like a hedgehog, and his heart trembled and he knelt down and surrendered without hesitation.

Jin Liang looked at the tragic situation of Zhang Ji who was hit by an arrow, and smiled secretly in his heart, this Zhang Ji was killed by an arrow when he attacked Nanyang County in history, and this time he was also killed by an arrow, it seems that he is living with this fate.

Dong Zhuo's original five lieutenant generals Niu Fu, Dong Yue, Xu Rong, Duan Xuan, Hu Zhen, and five lieutenants under the five lieutenant generals, namely Li Dao, Guo Yan, Zhang Ji, Fan Chou, Yang Ding, Hu Zhen died in the previous Guan Allied Army's crusade against Dong Zhuo, Xu Rong, Duan Xuan, Niu Fu, Dong Yue successively defected to Jin Liang, Yang Ding, Li Dao, Guo Yan, Fan Chou also surrendered one after another, Zhang Ji died in battle, and most of Dong Zhuo's forces were absorbed by Jin Liang.

Jin Liangqi valued the generals of Xu Rong and Duan Xuan, and also respected their personalities, and after reorganizing their men and horses according to the standards of the Central Army, he still handed them over to command, and gave them certain combat opportunities, and used them as his own generals.

Niu Fu and Dong Yue are related to Dong Zhuo, and their own talents are quite average, although Jin Liang asked them to reorganize the troops under their command, and nominally handed over the troops to them, but it was Jin Liang's deputy who really held the military power.

As for Li Dao and Guo Yan, their evil appearance in history made Jin Liang vigilant, and he originally wanted to put them to death, but remembering that the Xiliang Army had just surrendered to him, if he got rid of Li Dao and Guo Yan now, it would definitely make the soldiers of the Xiliang Army fearful, Jin Liang still followed the standards of Niu Fu and Dong Yue, and after the reorganization of the troops under their command, they were still handed over to them, but it was the deputy sent to them by Jin Liang who really controlled the military power and could mobilize the troops and horses.

The same is true for Yang Ding and Fan Chou.

The reason why Jin Liang was able to boldly let them continue to lead the troops was that in the process of reorganization, Jin Liang dispersed the cronies of Li Dao, Guo Yan, Niu Fu, Dong Yue, Yang Ding, Fan Chou and others to other ranks, and those soldiers with bad records were directly sent to the Sizhou Construction Corps, and the middle and lower-level officers of these troops were all selected from Jin Liang's guard division, and those soldiers were all scattered.

When Jin Liang completely controls the Sili region, he doesn't have to worry about the Liangzhou Corps shaking his heart, and he will free up his hands one by one to clean up the unstable factors such as Li Dao and Guo Yan.

After Jin Liangna surrendered Niu Fu and Dong Yue, he accepted Li Ru's surrender.

Jin Liang originally thought that Li Ru was difficult to save in the mutiny where Dong Zhuo was killed by Yan Xing and Wang Yun, who knew that Li Ru had deep doubts about Wang Yun at the beginning of Dong Zhuo's favor of Wang Yun, and had a strong pessimism about the future of the Xiliang army, so he built a secret room in his mansion, when Yan Xing's Jincheng soldiers killed his mansion, Li Ru set fire to his house, and even Dong Zhuo's second daughter died in the fire, but Li Ru himself escaped by hiding in the secret room, Li Ru was ready to wait for the rumors to pass, and then escape from Luoyang City in disguise.

Li Ru hid in the secret room for ten days, he thought that Luoyang was still under Wang Yun's control, so he disguised himself and sneaked out, but found that the banner of the Central Army was flying everywhere in Luoyang City.

Li Ru also heard that Jin Liang tied Wang Yun, Shi Sun Rui, Yang Zan and Liu Xie to Xiangyang and handed them over to the Son of Heaven Liu Bian, and he was very grateful to Jin Liang in his heart, it was Jin Liang who avenged himself, and Jin Liang's confidant Jia Xu was his best friend, Li Ru thought about it for a while, and went straight to visit Jia Xu.

Jia Xu was overjoyed when he knew that his friend was not dead, and hurriedly took Li Ru to see Jin Liang.

Jin Liang had learned several poisonous schemes by Li Ru in the past three years, and two times almost put Jin Liang in a desperate situation, Jin Liang saw Li Ru, not angry but happy, the more Li Ru was scheming, the greater the benefits for him to take refuge in himself, Jin Liang disregarded his previous suspicions, walked out of the commander's mansion, greeted Li Ru in person, and appointed Li Ru as the right army division, and the former military division Fu Zhu, the rear army division Tian Feng, the left army division Jia Xu, the middle army division Dong Zhao and their five major military divisions, as for Guo Jia and Xu Shu because of their young qualifications, they are still unable to follow Fu Zhu, Tian Feng, Jia Xu, Li Ru, and Dong Zhao are on a par.

Li Ru originally thought that Jin Liang would be angry with himself because of his previous strategy to deal with Jin Liang, but he didn't expect Jin Liang to be so courteous, so he felt that he had not made an inch of merit and was ashamed of it, so he racked his brains to give advice to Jin Liang.

Jin Liang chatted with Li Ru and Jia Xu, and during the conversation, Jin Liang mentioned that the most nerve-wracking thing for him was the military discipline of the Xiliang Army, which was very corrupt, even worse than bandits, bandits, and yellow turban thieves, and that Jin Liang could turn a group of civilians into a disciplined army in a few months, but it was very difficult to reshape a group of troops whose discipline had been corrupted to the point of becoming accustomed to it into a disciplined army.

Li Ru smiled slightly and said: "Lord, there is a strategy for lowly duties, which can solve the worries of the lord!" ”

Jin Liang smiled: "Wenyou, please tell me carefully." ”

Li Ru asked people to go to his secret room to get some classic documents and handed them to Jin Liang, Jin Liang read them slightly, it turned out to be the secret of the Xiliang Army that was not known to the world, it turned out that Li Ru did the same work under Dong Zhuo as Jia Xu did under Jin Liang, he was responsible for intelligence collection, and Li Ru handed over to Jin Liang a booklet with statistics on the origins of the soldiers of the Xiliang Army.

Li Ru pointed to the booklet and said with a smile: "Lord, this is a summary I made three months ago, nearly sixty percent of the people in the Xiliang Army are subordinate, and only forty percent are from Liangzhou, of which the Qianghu people account for half of the Xiliang people. ”

Jin Liang was puzzled and said: "It is called the Xiliang Army, and it is said that the people of Xiliang should occupy most of it." ”

Li Ru said with a smile: "Three years ago, the lord showed his might, defeated Xu Rong twice, and defeated Dong Zhuo, the Xiliang army in the battle with the lord's central army, the elite lost most of the elite, and Sili was attacked on all sides, Dong Zhuo had to forcibly recruit people from the Sili area to make up for the Xiliang army, three years, although the total number of soldiers and horses in Xiliang was better than in the past, but more than half of them were local people, and the combat effectiveness was seriously weakened. ”

Jin Liang was surprised: "Wenyou, Dong Zhuo is your father-in-law, why do you name names, this is a bit rude." ”

Li Ru smiled bitterly, and Jia Xu said with a smile on the side: "Wenyou was a young man who was famous for his intelligence, Dong Zhuo admired Wen You's resourcefulness, and was afraid that Wen You would not be willing to belong to him, so he married his second daughter to Wen You, and Dong Zhuo's second daughter looked and temperamentally similar to Dong Zhuo, and Wen You has been tortured for more than ten years. It's just that he has followed Dong Zhuo and can't break free, and now Dong Zhuo is dead. Wen You was also relieved. ”

Jin Liang remembered Dong Zhuo's face full of flesh and fat head and big ears, and couldn't help laughing: "Wen You, you really suffered. In order to make up for the suffering you have suffered for more than ten years, you can laugh at Dong Zhuo's concubines. ”

Li Ru was very grateful, but he had to shake his head and refuse: "Although he has been in a humble position for more than ten years and has suffered from marriage, Dong Zhuo is still a lowly father-in-law in name, and he takes his father-in-law's concubine as his own, and he is afraid that he will be ridiculed for his humble position." ”

Jin Liang didn't expect that Li Ru, who had followed Dong Zhuo for more than ten years, was not influenced by Dong Zhuo to discard his name, and his style of acting was still a little Confucian, and it was very desolate to see that Li Ru was alone now. I couldn't bear it, so I thought for a while and said, "It's better to give you all Yang Zhan's concubines." Jin Liang originally wanted to give Wang Yun's concubines to Li Ru, but after searching Wang Yun's current mansion, he found that Wang Yun had not raised any more concubines since he was castrated by Jin Liang.

Li Ruji thanked him, got back to the point, and continued to offer advice: "Lord." According to the observation of the humble post for more than three years, the military discipline of the Xiliang Army is corrupted, mostly because they live here, and do not regard themselves as the masters of the Sili region, and almost all the Xiliang people from Dong Zhuo down regard themselves as passers-by. With the idea of grabbing a handful and running, with such an idea, they will never stop until they do not scourge the Sili area to hell on earth. Only Duan Xuan is the famous general Duan Ying, adhering to the family education, attaching importance to the development of agricultural affairs, and not harassing the people, the local people can live and work in peace and contentment, and the rest of the Xiliang generals are mostly thieves who harm the people, but if they are allowed to lead the troops back to Xiliang and guard the township, they will never do so wanton evil. ”

Jia Xu smiled: "I also agree with Wen You's words." Now the people of Sili are suffering from the brutal rule of the Xiliang army for more than three years, if the Xiliang people continue to guard in Sili, and the Sili area is afraid of civil change, it is better to integrate the Xiliang people and return to their hometowns to guard them, so that they can also curb Ma Teng, Han Sui and other Xiliang princes, and at the same time can curb Qianghu and other foreign tribes to ensure the stability of Xijiang. ”

Jin Liang was overjoyed and said: "Wen You, Wen He, what the two of you said is very much in line with my wishes. ”

Jin Liang named Li Dao as the lieutenant of Beidi County in Shuozhou, and ordered him to lead his headquarters back to his hometown Beidi County to guard it; Feng Guo Yan was appointed as the county lieutenant of Zhangye County, Liangzhou, and ordered him to lead the people of his headquarters back to his hometown of Zhangye County, Liangzhou to guard it; Feng Fan Chou was the lieutenant of Jincheng County, Liangzhou, and ordered him to lead the people of his headquarters back to his hometown of Jincheng County, Liangzhou; Feng Yang was appointed as the county lieutenant of Longxi County, Liangzhou, and led the people of the headquarters to return to his hometown of Longxi County, Liangzhou; Feng Dongyue was the county lieutenant of Wuwei County, Liangzhou, and led the people of the headquarters back to his hometown of Wuwei County, Liangzhou to guard it; Feng Niu Fu is the lieutenant of Wudu County, Liangzhou, and leads the headquarters to guard Wudu County.

Jin Liang also named Xu Rong as the general of Liangzhou, Xu Rong's headquarters was stationed in Hanyang County, commanding all the horses in Liangzhou, and Li Ru was the general staff of Liangzhou, assisting Xu Rong in handling all military and political affairs in Liangzhou.

Now Liangzhou has Jincheng Taishou Han Sui, Wuwei Taishou Ma Teng two big forces and more than a dozen other small separatist forces, in addition to many Qianghu tribes, the order is chaotic, and the various forces are fighting endlessly, Jin Liang gave Xu Rong and Li Ru the task is to unite Ma Teng and other pro-Han forces to contain Han Sui and other anti-Han forces, Li Ru's task is to do his best to let Ma Teng and Han Sui fight, as long as Ma Teng and Han Sui do not unite, Liangzhou will not get out of control.
