The next day, the two armies faced each other again. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info Yan Xing stepped on the snow and rode alone to the front of the formation. Han Sui led the candidates, Li Kan, Liang Xing, Ma Wan, and Yang Qiuwu to stand a hundred steps behind Yan Xing. Yan Xing still held his spear and shouted, "Has anyone come here to die?!" ”
Fan Chou rode out alone to meet Yan Xing, and Yan Xing saw that Fan Chou did not carry weapons and could not bear to poison, so he let Fan Chou move forward. Fan Chou turned his horse forward, a few steps away from Yan Xing, leaned over and said loudly: "Yesterday, Dong Gong asked the general for his matter, the general must act quickly, don't miss the opportunity!" After saying this, Fan Chou turned his horse's head and quickly returned to his own formation.
Fan Chou's words just reached Han Sui's ears, Han Sui thought of Yan Xing's words and deeds yesterday, it was very suspicious, and he was about to think about how to deal with it, but he saw that his subordinates played with guns and jumped horses, and took Yan Xing directly, and scolded: "Carry the master's husband, take your life!" ”
Yan Xing had no choice but to pick up the spear and fight the horse. Yan Xing's command also had more than 2,000 private soldiers who were only loyal to Yan Xing, and when they saw that the horse was playing with Yan Xing, they thought that General Yan Xing had made up his mind to avenge his father, so he brandished his sword and gun and killed the soldiers loyal to Han Sui around him, and Han Sui's 30,000 horses were suddenly in chaos.
Dong Zhuo was overjoyed when he saw that the plan of discord was successful, so he shouted: "Help General Yan Xing avenge the killing of his father, rush!" ”
Dong Zhuo's 50,000 elite soldiers rushed towards Han Sui's team like a flood. Dong Zhuo urged the army to take advantage of the situation to chase and kill, Han Sui's army suffered countless casualties, Ma Wan was stabbed to death by Yan Xing on the spot, Han Sui under the protection of Hou Xuan, Li Kan, Liang Xing, Yang Qiu four generals, rushed out of the siege, broke through Dong Zhuo's defensive pass without leaving troops, and returned to Liangzhou Jincheng. Return to Jincheng. Take inventory. It was found that there were only more than 3,000 of the 30,000 elite soldiers brought to Luoyang, but fortunately, more than 70,000 people remained in Jincheng and were not taken away, and they were not injured at all. From then on, Han Sui was forced by Dong Zhuo's threat to renew his old friendship with Ma Teng, joined forces again, recognized the Yecheng regime as Zhengshuo, and was appointed by Liu Wei, the son of Yecheng. Attacking Dong Zhuo's rear from Liangzhou's side made Dong Zhuo exhausted, which is a later story, and I will show it later. Dong Zhuojun won a great victory, and after collecting troops and returning to Luoyang, Fan Chou led Yan Xing to meet Dong Zhuo, Dong Zhuo was overjoyed and entertained with wine.
Dong Zhuo bowed down first and said: "Dong Zhuo got the help of the general today, and it will be like a dry seedling to get rain." ”
Yan Xing also hurriedly bowed down: "Yan Xing can't be enlightened by Dong Gong, I don't know when he will be able to avenge his father's death." It's just a pity that he can't slash Han Sui's traitor! ”
Dong Zhuo said with a smile: "Yanming, you can relax, with my 100,000 Xiliang Iron Riders to help." Soon, you'll be able to do what you want. Yanming, I have something to ask for, but it is difficult to talk about it. Yan Xing hurriedly said: "Please make it public." ”
Dong Zhuo put on a kind and kind look: "Yanming is only twenty-two years old, his father was killed by Han Sui and has become an orphan; I, Dong Zhuo, am nearly 60 years old, my only son died young, and I have become a widowed father. I see that Yan Ming is smart and heroic, and I love it very much, and I am willing to accept Yan Ming as my adopted son, I don't know what Yan Ming wants? ”
If you refuse Dong Zhuo today, you will not be able to leave Luoyang, nor will you be able to avenge the murder of your father, and seeing Dong Zhuo's sincere attitude, he will throw himself into the ground and say: "If the public does not give up, please worship as a righteous father." ”
Dong Zhuo was overjoyed, ordered someone to bring a golden armor brocade robe to Yan Xing, and ordered the whole army to drink bitterly to celebrate Dong Zhuo's joy of receiving his son. Dong Zhuo was crowned as the commander and lieutenant of the cavalry, and was knighted as the Marquis of the Valley Pavilion of Jincheng, Yan Xing was overjoyed, and he was loyal and respectful to Dong Zhuofa.
Li Ru saw that Dong Zhuo had accepted Yan Xing's righteous son, and there were no obvious opponents inside and outside Luoyang City, so he asked Dong Zhuo to make a plan to abolish it as soon as possible. On the day that Dong Zhuo received Yan Xing's righteous son, he set up a banquet in the palace ban and convened the ministers to discuss the abolition of the legislature. Dong Zhuo asked Yan Xing to lead thousands of elite soldiers to guard him or so, so as to make a strong reputation.On this day, Taifu Yuan Kui and all the officials came.
After three rounds of drinking, Dong Zhuo pressed his sword and shouted: "Today is dark, you can't worship the temple; I will follow the story of Yiyin and Huo Guang, abolish the emperor as the king of Hongnong, and set up the king of Chen Liu as the emperor. There are disobedient slashes! All the ministers of the family were terrified, bowed their heads and did not dare to respond.
Seeing that his uncle Yuan Kui was as stunned as a wooden chicken, Yuan Shao, the captain of Si Li, couldn't help but sigh secretly, with his uncle's behavior today, the century-old reputation of the Yuan family will be ruined, and with Dong Zhuo's words a few days ago, the Yuan family will not be able to make good gains if they ruin their reputation, Dong Zhuo already hates Yuan Kui deeply, and will not give the Yuan family any more chances, in this case, it is better to fight and have a good reputation, thinking of this, he stepped forward and shouted: "When today's son has only been on the throne for a few months, there is no loss of morality; If you want to abolish your heirs, you are plotting rebellion! ”
Dong Zhuo had already seen that this kid was not pleasing to the eye, so he said angrily: "The world is up to me!" I'm doing it now, who dares to disobey! Do you dismiss my sword? ”
Yuan Shao also pulled out his sword: "Your sword is sharp, my sword is not disadvantaged!" ”
Yan Xing wanted to rush up with his sword, but was stopped by Li Ru, Li Ru whispered to Dong Zhuo: "The fourth generation and third duke of the Yuan family, the protégés and former officials are all over the world, the prestige of the father has not yet been established, and the military resources are not sufficient. ”
Yuan Shao saw that Dong Zhuo hesitated and did not dare to kill himself, so he took this gap, said goodbye to the hundred officials, carried a sword, rushed out of the palace gate, and went to the camp of the Zhongjun in the West Garden under the protection of Yan Liang, Chou, Chun Yuqiong and others, and wanted to lead the four armies of the West Garden to rush out of Luoyang, but saw a general on the wall of the camp, and shouted: "Yuan Shao, the lord of my family misses the fourth and third princes of your Yuan family, and I can't bear to do harm, you hurry up and go back to your hometown in Runan, don't disturb your heart again." ”
Yuan Shao fixed his eyes and saw that it was Dong Zhuo's henchman Guo Yan, the wall of the wall has been densely covered with Xiliang elite soldiers, it seems that more than 8,000 people of the Fourth Army of Xiyuan have all been reorganized by Dong Zhuo, thinking of Cao Cao going to Pingyuan County to take up the post of state minister, thinking of Bao Xin's return to Taishan's hometown, Yuan Shao couldn't help but be discouraged, could it be that the Yuan family is really scattered.
Yuan Shao's strategist Feng Ji saw that the lord's face was ugly, and hurriedly persuaded: "The lord's family is noble, the fourth and third dukes, and the protégés and former officials are all over the world, they have a lot of military power in hand, if the lord wants to seek great things and fight against Dong Zhuo, he can rely on these protégés and old officials." ”
Yuan Shao said in a depressed voice: "Then according to your words, I should go to that protégé first?" ”
Feng Ji thought for a while, and then said: "Hanoi guards Han Lin too much, and the Yingchuan Han family has been attached to the Yuan family for generations. Loyal to the Yuan family. And Hanoi is frequently close to Luoyang. The lord can observe the situation in Luoyang up close in Hanoi. ”
Yuan Shao thought for a while and hesitated: "But Jin Liang has already recommended that Sun Jian, the Taishou of Changsha, take over as the Taishou of Hanoi, Sun Jian is protected by Zhu Jun and Zhang Wen, and it has nothing to do with my Yuan family. ”
Feng Jiyin said with a smile: "There are thieves all the way from Changsha to Hanoi, whether Sun Jian can reach Hanoi safely and take office depends on his creation." ”
Yuan Shao understood what Feng Ji meant. He laughed and decided to go to Hanoi.
In the palace, Dong Zhuo looked at Yuan Shao's arrogant back, his heart was full of murderous intent, forcibly suppressed, and shouted at Yuan Kui: "Your nephew is very rude, I am in front of you, let me spare it." In your opinion, what should be done about this abolition?! ”
Dong Zhuo's eyes showed a burst of murderous intent, and Yuan Kui, an old bureaucrat who usually only intrigues, could withstand it. trembling like chaff, he said vigorously: "What the captain said is extremely true. What the captain said was extremely true. "It turns out that Dong Zhuo has already proclaimed himself a captain.
Dong Zhuo saw that Yuan Kui, who was the head of the hundred officials, was obedient to him, and couldn't help but look up to the sky and laugh. The ministers also echoed Qiang and laughed.
Suddenly, Dong Zhuo suppressed his smile, took out his sword, cut off the table in front of him with a sword, and shouted loudly: "Those who dare to hinder the abolition of the establishment should be like this!" ”
The ministers were terrified, and they were laughing with Dong Zhuo just now, but the smile on their faces was not as fast as Dong Zhuo's, and the smiles and horrors were piled up on their faces, which looked extremely weird.
Subsequently, Dong Zhuo asked Zhou Bi, the first attendant to take refuge, and Wu Qiong, the captain of the city gate: "Where will Yuan Shao go?" ”
Zhou Bi replied: "Yuan Shuen IV, protégés and former officials are all over the world, and Yuan Shao must be a protégé of a certain Yuan family; If Dong Gong forcibly pursued him, he took a risk and collected heroes to gather disciples, and the hero rose because of it, and Shandong was not publicly owned. It's better to disperse and worship as a county guard, then Yuan Shaoxi will be exempt from sin, and there will be no trouble. ”
Wu Qiong also said treacherously: "Yuan Shao is scheming and indecisive, so there is no need to worry, it is better to add a county guard to win the hearts of the people." ”
Dong Zhuo asked: "Why should Yuan Shao be appointed?" ”
Wu Qiong, the captain of the city gate, had no good impression of Jin Liangsu, so he said: "Now Jingzhou Assassin Shi Jin Liang is rude and few, repeatedly offended Dong Gong, Yuan Shaolu offended Dong Gong, it is better to order Yuan Shao to be the Bohai Taishou and put it under the jurisdiction of Jin Liang. ”
Dong Zhuo was overjoyed, so he immediately sent someone to appoint Yuan Shao as the Taishou of Bohai. On September 15, it rained heavily inside and outside Luoyang City, and the heavy rain still could not stop Dong Zhuo's determination to abolish the establishment. On the top of the main hall, Dong Zhuo and Yuan Yin, one martial and one Wu, led the ministers, and ordered the young emperor Liu Weiying to announce his abdication and give it to his younger brother Liu Xie, the king of Chen Liu
Dong Zhuo drew his sword in his hand and said to everyone: "The Son of Heaven is weak and not enough to rule the world. There is a plan for today, and it is appropriate to read it out. He ordered Li Ru to read the policy: "Emperor Xiaoling, abandon his subjects early; The emperor collapsed, and the sea looked sideways.
And the emperor is frivolous, not dignified, and lazy: no virtue is prominent, and there is a great position. The queen mother taught motherless etiquette to rule the government in chaos. The Empress Dowager Yongle collapsed, and everyone was confused. The way of the three outlines, the era of heaven and earth, the mother is que? Chen Liuwang Xie, Shengde Weimao, the rules are solemn; mourning and mourning, words are not evil; Husheng's reputation is heard all over the world, and it is advisable to inherit the Hongye industry and be the unification of the world. The emperor is hereby abolished as the king of Hongnong, and the queen mother returns to power, please serve King Chen Liu as the emperor of the emperor and should be in harmony with the people, in order to comfort the hope of the soul. ”
After Li Ru finished reading the strategy, Taifu Yuan Yuan stepped forward and collected all the special ornaments, talismans, jade seats, and golden ribbons of the young emperor Liu Wei and handed them to Liu Xie, the king of Chen Liu. Then Yuan Gui bowed the young emperor Liu Wei to get off the dragon chair, Dong Zhuo supported Chen Liuwang Liu Xie to board the dragon chair, and Yuan Yuan guided the young emperor Liu Wei to come to Liu Xie and wanted to be a minister in the north.
According to the system of the Eastern Han Dynasty, when the emperor first ascended the throne, he set up a Taifu and recorded Shangshu. An emperor can only have one Taifu, and if the Taifu dies, the position of the Taifu will be empty. Taizhi, mainly responsible for bowing and guiding the new emperor, familiar with the operation of the government; and assisted the emperor to understand various national affairs such as Shangshutai, as well as to guide the emperor to the secrets of national politics: what is evil, can be done; Although it is good, it cannot be the Taifu Yuan Yuan, who should have tutored the growth of the young emperor Liu Wei, but he personally bowed the young emperor to the stage and changed the title of Liu Xie, the king of Chen Liu, as the emperor. The ministers in the audience had no expression on their faces, but they were despising Yuan Yuan in their hearts. Yuan Yin is now nearly seventy years old, his beard is white, his face is handsome, and he is sanctimonious, but as Liu Wei's Taifu, he supported Liu Wei to step down, and his face was not ashamed. Yuan Yuan was no longer ashamed on his face, but he couldn't be calm in his heart, he had been lowering his eyes. Don't dare to face up to the young emperor Liu Wei. At the moment when he helped Liu Wei to step down. He couldn't help but raise his head and glanced at Liu Wei with pity.
Yuan Long's face changed suddenly, he let go of the hand that was supporting Liu Bian, covered his heart, and pointed at Liu Bian: "He, he, he, no" has not finished speaking. Yuan Tunnel was so angry that he spit out a lot. blood, and then fainted.
Dong Zhuo hurriedly ordered someone to help Xiyuan up, and ordered the imperial doctor in the palace to come for treatment. After a long time, Yuan Yuan woke up, looked at Dong Zhuo in front of him, and said leisurely: "He is not the Young Emperor Liu Bian. We are on Jin Liang and Lu Zhijian! ”
Dong Zhuo hurriedly asked people to support the young emperor Liu Wei and the empress dowager He Lian, and asked urgently: "Mrs. Yuan, why do you say that he is not?" The other ministers all said that he was the young emperor Liu Bian! ”
Yuan Long pointed at the young emperor Liu Wei: "Look at his neck, is there a mole on it?" ”
Dong Zhuo hurriedly stepped forward. grabbed Liu Wei's clothes and looked at his neck. After looking around, he shook his head and said, "No, there is not a mole."
Yuan Yin nodded sadly: "But there is a very obvious black mole on the neck of that real Liu Bian, which I saw when I bowed him to the throne." ”
Speaking of this, Yuan Puppet glanced at the Queen Mother again, and also found some flaws, and said in a wailful voice: "This Queen Mother is also fake, the real Queen Mother's chest is not so thin, and there are not so many fine lines on her neck." ”
Dong Zhuo looked at the martial ministers below, and found that their expressions seemed to be crying rather than crying, and knowing that they had forcibly suppressed the ridicule of themselves, he couldn't help but be furious: "Come on, take these two people down, interrogate them carefully, and see what the hell is going on!" ”
Li Ru led the fake queen mother and the fake young emperor to the apse, and the skin was whipped open, and the two people finally confessed the truth, it was Jin Liang's personal guard Wu Chong who led people to look for people who looked like the queen mother and Liu Wei everywhere inside and outside the city, and happened to meet this pair of mother and son who looked like the queen mother and Liu Wei, so they kidnapped their whole family, Wu Chong promised them that if they could get through the tricks, they would let their whole family go, and give them a hundred gold, they followed Wu Chong into the palace under coercion and temptation, and followed the queen mother and the young emperor. Every day to learn the behavior and speech habits of the Queen Mother and the Young Emperor, Wu Chong also asked people to sort out and modify the places on their faces that do not look like them, after more than ten days of training, they were almost fake, and the Queen Mother and the Young Emperor were finally picked up by Wang Yue with a heavy carriage, leaving the two of them to move under the supervision of Wu Chong, until they were recognized by Taifu Yuan Yin.
When Dong Zhuo learned the truth, he was furious and scolded bitterly: "Jin Liang, a thief, has been playing me like an idiot!" I have to avenge this insult! Come on, pick up the people, pursue Jin Liang, and recapture the Queen Mother and the Son of Heaven! ”
After a short time, the generals Zhang Ji and Fan Monkey came to report that it was raining heavily inside and outside Luoyang City, and it was muddy and difficult to walk, and the cavalry could not be dispatched, so it was best to pursue along the Yellow River by boat.
Dong Zhuo scolded sharply: "Two fools, hurry up and find the ship, the army will be poured out and pursue Jin Liang!" ”
Zhang Ji smiled bitterly and said: "My lord, all the boats on both sides of the Yellow River near Luoyang have been requisitioned and bought by Duobu, and there are only a few broken fishing boats left, which may be difficult to defeat Jin Liang's thousands of ships." ”
"What do you say! Let the world laugh at me, Dong Zhuo was played around by Lu Bu like a fool! I don't take revenge, I can't sleep! ”Zhang Ji and Fan Manuscript had bitter faces, and said, "Lord, how can there be any way?" Jin Liang's thousands of ships went down the river, the speed was very fast, and now it is estimated that they have all arrived in Liyang, and they have abandoned the ship and gone ashore. Our army is not crazy and can't cross the Yellow River, so how can we help him! ”
Dong Zhuo wanted to be angry again, but was persuaded by Li Ru: "Father, now that all the officials are looking at us, the more angry my father is, the happier the ministers of those families are." Since we can't deal with Jin Liang with military force now, let's announce to the world that Jin Liang kidnapped the Queen Mother and the Son of Heaven, intending to usurp the throne, and ordered the people of the world to discuss it, and then we said that the world cannot be left without an owner for a day, since the Son of Heaven was held hostage by 8 cloths, we had to change the Chen Liuwang Liu Xie as the emperor, in order to support the Han family, so that the name is justified, and the actual effect may be better than abolishing it. ”。
Dong Zhuo asked Taifu Yuan Yin what he meant, Yuan Yu thought about it, and now there was really nothing to do, so he had to follow Li Ru's method, the wicked person sued first, first framed Lu Bu to rob the Queen Mother and the Son of Heaven, first muddied the waters, so that the people of the world forgot about his embarrassing deeds, and then slowly plotted it.
Dong Zhuo suddenly remembered something, turned around and asked his peers: "Where is Wu Chong'er, have you sent someone to arrest him?" ”
Yan Xing smiled bitterly and said: "Shi A and Wu Chong have all disappeared, Shi Anai Luo is afraid of the ruffian in the city, he is a famous snake in Luoyang City, as long as he wants to hide, unless we turn Luoyang City upside down, it will be difficult to catch them!" ”
Dong Zhuo said viciously: "Even if I turn them upside down, I have to catch them and peel them off and cramp them, so as to vent the hatred in my heart!" ”
Yan Xing took the order and left, and the wolf-like Xiliang soldiers began to search everywhere in Luoyang City, going door to door, this group of beasts with corrupt military discipline wantonly raped and plundered in the name of searching for the imperial court's criminals, Luoyang City suddenly became a living hell on earth, and those who refused to follow Jin Liang to retreat to Jingzhou in Luoyang City regretted that their intestines were green.
In a corner of Luoyang City, Wu Chongxiao asked Shi Adao: "I said, why aren't you nervous at all?" Dong thief made such a big move, and the whole city searched from house to house, just to get the two of us, and you still drank in a good way."
Shi Ahaha laughed and said: "I can see through Dong Zhuo and his group of Xiliang soldiers, Dong Zhuo wants to arrest us for the sake of face, and those Xiliang soldiers follow Dong Zhuo's face and rape and plunder, they don't care if they catch us or not, they just need a person who kills people everywhere, sets fire to kills and loots.!" ”
Although there was an episode of the fake empress dowager and the fake young emperor, Dong Zhuo and Yuan Tunnel still supported Liu Xie and changed their teeth to the beginning. Dong Zhuo is the prime minister, praises and worships no name, does not enter the court, and goes to the palace with a sword, Wifu Mobi.
Yuan Kui is still the Taifu, and he seems to be standing respectfully beside Liu Xie. He looked at the ministers below, and found that half of them were Yuan's protégés, and his heart was suddenly extremely sad, he now finally understood why Jin Liang and the Empress Dowager were so generous to reward the official positions of the imperial court center to the protégés of the Yuan family, it turned out to be a salary draw, Dong Zhuo supported Liu Xie, and all official positions in the Luoyang court were no longer recognized by the Hancheng court, once the Hancheng court became a court supported by everyone in the world, then the Yuan family was in decline at all. Hehe, now I can see the purpose of Jin Liang's previous arrangements. (To be continued.) )
