Dong Zhuo followed the plan, and the next day he had a big banquet in Wenming Garden, inviting the ministers of the family. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info If someone dared not come, he asked Zhang Ji and Fan Chou to lead the troops to invite them, and all the ministers were afraid and did not dare not come. Dong Zhuo heard that all the officials had arrived at Wenming Garden, so he set off slowly, rode to the gate of the garden, and brought a sword to the table.
After three rounds of wine and five flavors of food, Dong Zhuo asked people to stop drinking and having fun, and shouted loudly with his sword: "I have a word, and the officials will listen quietly." ”
The ministers looked at Dong Zhuo stupidly and listened attentively.
Dong Zhuo shouted: "The Son of Heaven is the lord of all peoples, and he can't serve the temple without prestige." Now he is cowardly, but if he is not as smart and studious as King Chen Liu, he can inherit the big position. I want to abolish the emperor and set up the king of Chen, why do the ministers think so? When the officials heard this, they did not dare to speak out.
Suddenly, a person pushed the case straight out, stood in the garden, and shouted: "What are you Dong Zhuo, who said such a big thing?" The Son of Heaven is the son of the first emperor, and he is not at fault, so why should he discuss the abolition of the establishment! Do you want to usurp and rebel?! ”
Dong Zhuo's eyes widened, and when he looked around, it turned out to be his ally, General Zhenxi, who led Jincheng Taishou Han Sui.
Han Sui, the word covenant, a native of Jincheng, Liangzhou, whose real name is Han Yue, and Bian Zhang are both famous people in Liangzhou. In his early years, Han Yue entered Beijing with a plan to persuade the general He Jin to kill the eunuchs, but He Jin could not accept it, and Han Yue was afraid that he would be harmed by the eunuchs and seek to return. Just in time for Liangzhou Li Hou, Beigong Yu and others to rebel, killed Jincheng Taishou Chen Yi, kidnapped Han Yue and Bian Zhang and elected them as leaders, Han Yue was forced to oppose Han, so he became a "thief" wanted by the imperial court, so he changed "Covenant" to "Sui". With the slogan of killing the eunuchs, Han Sui gathered 100,000 people and defeated the famous generals Gai Xun and Huangfu Song successively. Later, due to the unstable heart of the meteorite army falling from the sky, it was broken by Zhang Wenling, Dong Zhuo and Sun Jian. Defeated in Yuzhong. The following year, Han Sui killed Beigong Yu, Li Hou, and Bian Zhang. and annexed all their troops, gathered 100,000 people again, and entered the siege of Longxi, which was responded to by Li Xiangru, the Taishou of Longxi, and Huang Yan, the Taishou of Jiuquan. The imperial court ordered Liangzhou Assassin Shi Geng to lead the troops of the six counties to crusade against Han Sui, but there was a rebellion in the march, Geng Sui was killed, and Han Sui's army was responded to by Geng's army Sima Ma Teng and the Haoqiang Kingdom of Hanyang and captured Hanyang. Han Sui, Ma Teng and others elected the kingdom as the leader, attacked Chen Cang, the soldiers were tired and withdrew to the west, and were chased by Huangfu Song, beheaded more than 10,000 levels, and blamed afterwards, Han Sui and Ma Teng killed the kingdom, and kidnapped Yan Zhong, a famous scholar in Hanyang, as the leader, and soon Yan Zhong died of resentment, and Han Sui and others had infighting in order to compete for leadership. The Liangzhou rebel army was divided.
Dong Zhuo entered the customs and wanted to enter Luoyang. was blocked by Jin Liang and forced to guard the Sunset Pavilion. Dong Zhuo was afraid that Jin Liang would unite with the family, and that his troops would not be enough to deter the Kwantung princes, so at the suggestion of Li Ru, he invited Han Sui and Ma Teng to conspire with Kwantung, but Ma Teng refused, and only Han Sui agreed. Dong Zhuo asked the imperial court for Han Sui, when Jin Liang went to Yingchuan, the empress dowager was persuaded by Yuan Kui to adopt a policy of appeasement, and named Han Sui as the general of Zhenxi to lead Jincheng Taishou.
Han Sui thanked Dong Zhuo for his kindness, so he led 30,000 elite soldiers to enter the customs with Dong Zhuo. Han Sui's father is filial piety, and he is also a famous man in Liangzhou, he wanted to rely on persuading He Jin to kill the eunuch and make meritorious contributions, how could He Jin not listen, forced to be a thief in desperation, forced to become a warlord, in fact, he did not have much disobedience to the Han court, Dong Zhuo also told him well that day, saying that after entering Beijing, he would be a loyal minister of the Han Dynasty who supported the Han family and suppressed the scholars, Han Sui believed it was true, and followed Dong Zhuo to the east, who knew that Dong Zhuo actually had the intention of abolishing the establishment, which disappointed Han Sui, and Han Sui always wanted to get rid of the identity of the traitor, didn't want Dong Zhuo to do such a thing and nail himself to the identity of a traitor, so he pushed the case away and questioned sharply.
Dong Zhuo was even more angry when he saw that it was his allies who opposed him, and he was even more angry than those ministers of the family who opposed him, so he angrily reprimanded: "Han Sui, you have to be protected by me, so that you are the minister of the court, and you don't want to repay your kindness, but you will take revenge and accept your life!" "Draw your sword and prepare to step forward to kill Han Sui.
Li Ru saw a white-faced young general behind Han Sui, in his early twenties, with strange bones, extraordinary instruments, bright eyes and a spear in his hand, looking at Dong Zhuo's eyes as if he was looking at a dead man, his eyes were so sharp, he must be a brave and fierce general, he was afraid that Dong Zhuo would lose, so he hurriedly advised: "Where you have a banquet today, don't talk about national politics; It's not too late to come to Hinata Metropolitan Hall. ”
Han Sui saw that he was reckless and offended Dong Zhuo, so he didn't dare to stay here for a long time, so under the protection of the young general, he rushed to his army in a panic.
Dong Zhuo breathed a sigh of relief when he saw Han Sui leaving, and then asked the other officials: "What I just said is fair?!" ”
In the original history, Lu Zhi quoted scriptures and opposed them, but now Lu Zhi is not there, and the other ministers, headed by Yuan Kui, are not learned and unskilled, and they don't know how to deal with it, and they are all silent.
Dong Zhuo snorted coldly: "I will take it as your acquiescence, if you dare to make irresponsible remarks in the court another day, I, Dong Zhuo, will recognize you, but the sword in my hand will not recognize you!" All the officials trembled, and nodded their heads like pounded garlic.
Dong Zhuo couldn't help but be complacent when he saw that the subordinates were in awe, and laughed loudly.
The next day, Dong Zhuo was ready to force the Empress Dowager to ascend to the court, but someone came to spread the news, saying that Jincheng Taishou Han Sui led 30,000 elite soldiers to fight outside Luoyang City, and 30,000 Han soldiers scolded Dong Zhuo in unison for being a rebel and thief.
Dong Zhuo was furious, so he ordered 50,000 fine horsemen, because the general Li Dao was shot and wounded by Lu Bu, so he led the generals Zhang Ji, Fan Chou, Guo Yan, and Hu Zhen to meet the enemy.
The two armies faced each other, and the young general behind Han Sui yesterday jumped on his horse with a spear, galloped vertically and horizontally, and shouted: "I'm here, and I want to die?!" ”
Dong Zhuo saw that Yan Xing was arrogant, so he sent the partial general Li Meng out to fight. Li Meng is the nephew of the general Li Dao, who has always been brave and valued by Dong Zhuo.
Li Meng saw that Yan Xing was young and had no beard, so he laughed and said: "The white-faced boy who has not dried up is still stinking, let's go home and eat milk, don't come to die before the battle!" As he spoke, he urged his horse forward and slashed with his knife.
When Yan Xing heard this, he became angry and waved his spear to fight Li Meng.
Yan Xing's spearhead was decorated with a bunch of red tassels, dancing, as if red clouds were flying wildly, Li Meng saw that Yan Xing's spear technique was exquisite, and his heart was already shaken, and the knife technique was gradually scattered, and the battle was not counted, Li Meng was frightened, and was ready to turn his horse and flee back to his own formation, only to see Yan Xing shout, and a spear stabbed Li Meng under the horse.
Yan Xing tied Li Meng to his spear. Wielding the corpse of Li Meng. shouted loudly: "Who else has come to send him to death!" ”
The generals under Dong Zhuo's command saw that Wang Meng, who was usually extremely brave, could not fight under Yan Xing's spear. I was so frightened that I didn't dare to come to my death.
Yan Xing proudly threw Li Meng's corpse in front of Dong Zhuo's array: "This waste corpse will be returned to you." Yan Xing was powerful, and with such a flick, he actually threw Li Meng's corpse out more than a hundred steps and flew down in front of Dong Zhuo's horse, Dong Zhuo looked down and saw that Li Meng was staring at him without blinking. I can't help but be terrified.
Li Meng's friend Fang Shi saw that Yan Xing was unprepared when he turned his horse back to his own formation, so he relied on his horse to chase after him, wanting to sneak attack Yan Xing.
Han Sui saw someone sneaking up on Yan Xing from behind, so he shouted, "There is someone behind him!" ”
As if he hadn't heard, Yan Xing still rode his horse forward casually. Fang Shi was very proud, and when his horse's head approached Yan Xing's tail, he shouted, "Go and die!" He raised his spear and stabbed Yan Xing in the back.
Yan Xing clamped the horse's belly, and the horse knelt down, and the square stone spear went empty. Yan Xing shouted: "Return to the horse gun!" "A backhand spear, impartial. Thorn in the throat of a square stone. Fang Shi's sentence "Go to death" was like his own talisman, and as soon as he said it, he saw a cavity of blood spurting out of his neck, and his body fell off the horse with a thud.
Yan Xing clamped the horse's belly again, the horse stood up suddenly, Yan Xing jumped on the horse, returned to the formation of the two armies, and shouted: "Who else!" Who else! I haven't drunk enough blood on this spear today! ”
Zhang Ji, Fan Chou, Guo Yan and others looked at each other, although they can usually defeat Li Meng and Fang Shi, they also have to go dozens of rounds, where they win so easily, the gap in skills is very large, they dare not go to death, Zhang Ji sighed and said: "My nephew Zhang Xiu is still in the north, otherwise why should I be afraid of him!" ”
Dong Zhuojun saw that Yan Xing was so powerful, and killed two fierce generals of his own side in a row, and his morale plummeted, and when Han Sui saw this, he led 30,000 elite soldiers and rushed up to kill. Yan Xing swung his spear and stabbed several Dong generals to death in succession, galloping across the country, as if entering a no-man's land. Dong Zhuo was panicked, and fled to Luoyang City with his horse, and the Xiliang cavalry saw that the commander had fled, and they also made a mess and fled back to Luoyang City like a swarm of bees. Yan Xing urged the horse to chase after him, but was repelled by random arrows in the city. Jin Liang listened to Wu Amaranth elaborate on Yan Xing's easy attempt to assassinate the second general, and he couldn't help but feel his blood fluttering, and his fighting spirit suddenly appeared, so it seems that in the future, in addition to Xiahoudun, he may have a fierce battle with this Yan Xing.
Dong Zhuo entered the city, his expression slowly calmed down, and when he learned that more than 6,000 people had been lost in this battle, he couldn't help but sigh and said: "I think that Yan Xing is really a brave general in the world, and his courage is not under Jin Liang, if I get this person, what am I afraid of!" ”
A general in front of the tent laughed and said: "The lord doesn't have to worry, the last general is a Jincheng clan, and Yan Xing is a fellow villager, I am willing to rely on a three-inch tongue to say that Yan Xing will surrender, and Han Sui's army will be defeated, so that our army can win without a fight!" ”
Dong Zhuo was overjoyed when he heard this, and when he looked at it, it turned out to be Fan Chou, the general under his command, and asked with a smile: "What are you going to say?" ”
Fan Chou smiled slightly: "The last general and Han Sui are also fellow villagers, and they know their deeds. A year ago, Han Sui wanted to get Yan Xing's general, and because Yan Xing's father was disgusted with Han Sui's identity as a thief, he did not agree to Yan Xing's joining Han Sui's army, Han Sui ordered his subordinates to pretend to be horse thieves and kill Yan Xing's father. Han Sui's murder of Yan Xing's father was well known to the rebels, and only Yan Xing was hidden. The last general is willing to go and inform Yan Xing of this matter, so that Yan Xinghuo and Han Sui, our army can win without a fight. ”
Li Ru on the side shook his head: "General Fan, don't be careless, that Yan is cautious and has followed Han Sui for more than a year, how can Han Sui's killing of his father spread throughout the army and hide it from this person alone." In my speculation, one possibility is that this person is wolf-hearted, has Han Sui's daughter, and has Han Sui's reuse, so he forgets his father's hatred; Another possibility is that this person wants to take revenge on his father, but Han Sui is powerful and has eight strong generals under his command, and it may be difficult for Yan Xing to retaliate alone, so he is trapped by Han Sui's side and waits for the opportunity. Regardless of those two possibilities, General Fan must go with a heavy salute to show his sincerity, even if Yan Xing is unwilling to surrender, General Fan will stir up Han Sui to suspect Yan Xing, as long as Han Sui suspects Yan Xing, Yan Xing will come to vote for a few days must not be far away. ”
When Dong Zhuo heard the word "heavy gift", his eyes flashed cold, and he said angrily: "Ru'er also persuaded me to give Jin Liang heavy gifts such as red rabbit horses and serial armor before, so that he could kill Ding Yuan and surrender, but what was the result, we were deceived by Lu Jinliang's thieves and gave away so many good things in vain!" ”
Li Ru smiled: "Father, don't be angry, this time and that time. At that time, we speculated on the nature of Jin Liang before. I don't know that his mind has changed. Moreover, Ding Yuan is not too thin for Lu Bu, and he has no revenge for killing his father; And Yan Xing entered Han Sui's command, just for the general of the charge, not to let him take charge of the army, so slow, plus there is a revenge for killing his father, as long as General Fan carries a heavy gift, the wealth is moving. Yan Xing's heart moved, and General Fan's clever words would definitely make Yan Xing come down quickly. When Dong Zhuo heard this, he hurriedly asked Li Ru to prepare gifts for Fan Chou, including a hundred catties of gold, dozens of pearls, a jade belt, and a divine horse.
Fan Chou took the gift and went to visit Yan Xing, but before he arrived at Yan Xing's camp, he was intercepted by Yan Xing's soldiers, and Fan Chou said: "You can report to General Yan quickly." said that the old man Fan Chou came to see. Yan Xing didn't know what Fan Chou's intentions were, and he didn't see it. But he suddenly remembered what he had hated in his heart for a year, and his heart jumped, could it be that the opportunity had come, so he hurriedly asked Fan Chou to come.
Fan Chou entered the tent, exchanged greetings with Yan Xing and Yan Yanming, and said: "I haven't seen Yanming for many years, Yanming was just a yellow-haired boy at the beginning, but I don't want to become an enemy today." Today, in front of the battle, I see that your martial arts are extraordinary, how can I not use a war horse, if it is a good horse, you can quickly kill the king without using a horse pistol. I have a good horse, can travel 800 miles a day, cross the water and climb the mountain, such as walking on the ground, because it is a BMW obtained in the Western Regions Dawan country, so the name Dawan horse, specially dedicated to Yanming, in order to help the tiger. ”
Yan Xing ordered someone to lead the Dawan horse to the tent, and when he took a closer look, he saw that the Dawan horse was as black and shiny as satin, without half a stray hair, only four hooves were snow-white, which was very surprising; From head to tail, it is nine feet long; From hooves to neck, seven feet tall, it is really a good horse.
Yan Xing was overjoyed: "It's really a divine horse!" It's just that this horse is called Dawan Horse, which is wrong, Dawan Horse is the name of the horse type, in fact, it is a sweat and blood BMW, the whole body is red, such as Lu Bu's red rabbit horse is Dawan Horse, and this horse is a river meandering horse, named Treading Snow Wuqi, and the war horse ridden by Xiang Yu, the overlord of Western Chu, is the same bloodline. ”
Fan Chou complimented: "Yan Ming is really Bole, this horse is ridden by you, and it will be in vain in this life." ”
Yan Xing saw that Fan Chou's entourage brought in another hundred catties of gold, dozens of pearls, and a jade belt, and his face couldn't help but turn cold: "Nothing to do, either a traitor or a thief, please tell me the purpose of coming, don't go around the bend with me!" ”
Fan Chou laughed and said: "Why does Yan Ming talk like this, I have been friends with your father for a long time, and it is normal for me to come to see him this time and give you some gifts by the way." ”
Yan Xing's face became more and more cold: "General Fan, what nonsense are you talking about, my ancestor has been dead for more than a year, where are you going to see him?!" ”
Fan Chou still laughed and said: "Nephew Yan Mingxian, I'm not talking about your father, I'm talking about your father-in-law!" ”
When Yan Xing heard this, he frowned, and shouted repeatedly: "It seems that General Fan drank a lot of wine before he came, and he was drunk. ”
Fan Chou looked up to the sky and laughed: "Someone actually admits that the enemy who killed his father is his father-in-law!" Amusing! Lamentable! Alas! ”
Yan Xing's heart moved, and he hurriedly stopped his cronies and approached Fan Chou: "General Fan, please tell me what you mean!" ”
When Fan Chou saw Yan Xing's expression, he knew that Yan Xing actually knew the truth about his father's murder, so he expressed the sincerity of connecting Dong Zhuo with the truth, and emphasized: "Dong Gong respects the virtuous and virtuous people, rewards and punishments are clear, and it will eventually become a great cause!" Yan Ming killed Han Sui, one avenges the murder of his father, and the other is the merit of promotion, with Han Sui's head, Dong Gong will definitely be reused for you, and it is not difficult to tear the soil and seal the marquis. ”
Yan Xing hesitated again and again: "Han Sui married his daughter and me, the husband and wife are in love, raise their eyebrows, respect each other like guests, I can't bear to kill Han Sui in front of my wife." ”
Fan Chou sneered: "Han Sui married a daughter to you, but it is to envelop you to work hard for him, the eldest husband is in the world, and he should make meritorious contributions, why bother with the gentleness of the moment, if he is appreciated and reused by Dong Gong, it is not a problem to have many beautiful wives and concubines, and why bother with the daughter of the enemy." ”
Fan Chou persuaded him again and again, but Yan Xing hesitated again and again at a critical time, and he couldn't make up his mind to kill Han Sui.
Fan Chou was impressed by the military advisor Li Ruzhi's decision, so he left a letter from Dong Zhuo to Yan Xing, and then left to meet Han Sui.
Han Sui remembered that Fan Chou was his old friend, and did not embarrass Fan Chou, but just asked: "General Fan, what did you do when you went to Yan Xing before?" ”
Fan Chou smiled slightly and said: "My lord Dong Zhuo saw that Yan Xing's martial arts were extraordinary, and he liked it very much, so he asked me to come and give it to him with a good horse, and the rest was nothing to say." Then the two exchanged pleasantries for a long time, and Fan Chou retired.
Han Sui was suspicious, and the cronies he had planted around Yan Xing came to report Fan Chou's actions in Yan Xing's tent, and Han Sui led the eight generals to Yan Xing's tent: "Virtuous son-in-law, I heard that Dong Zhuo's traitor once gave you a book, can you let your father take a look." ”
Yan Xing read the letter, and thought that there was nothing, so he handed the letter to Han Sui.
Han Sui took it and looked at it, and saw that there were many typos on it, and there were many alterations, so he asked, "Why are there so many alterations on the letter?" ”
Yan Xing replied: "I see, I don't know why. Could it be that Dong Zhuo mistakenly sealed the draft. ”
Han Sui said angrily: "How can you send a draft to someone? It must be a virtuous son-in-law who is afraid that I will know the details, so I will change it first. ”
Yan Xing also looked at each other angrily: "If my father-in-law doesn't believe me, I will kill the enemy again in the coming day to show my heart." ”
Han Sui said: "If this is the case, I will see my son-in-law's sincerity." (To be continued.) )
