Chapter 266: Dong Zhuo, who is rapidly expanding
In late summer and early autumn, the cicadas do not chirp. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
With October approaching, there is autumn, which slips in on a foggy dawn and is nowhere to be seen in the hot afternoon.
An autumn rain and a cold.
After the autumn rain, the weather became cold, but Zhang Fan was still immersed in the heat of midsummer a moment ago, and he was a little caught off guard in the face of the arrival of early autumn.
At the beginning, in the face of Dong Zhuo's deployment, Zhang Fan did the opposite, and did not go south directly from Luoyang, but went in a big circle, first going north to Hanoi, then to Yingchuan, and then south to Nanyang.
By the time Zhang Fan led more than 6,000 horsemen to Nanyang Zhisuoyuan County, more than ten days had passed since he left Luoyang, and he was temporarily resting in a valley more than forty miles south of Wan County, while listening to the information that Gongsun Jing had just received.
While feeding the jade lion in the night, Zhang Fan casually instructed Gongsun Jing:
"Say—"
Gongsun Jing looked at the tall and divine white horse in front of him, a trace of envy flashed in his eyes, and when he heard Zhang Fan's order, he immediately gathered his mind and began to report:
"Pan Lin's rebellion has been put down five days ago, Pan Lin was beheaded by his general Jing Yan, Jing Yan then led the army to surrender to Huanglongzhai, Pan Lin's other henchman Lirong and General Ling Caoxiao should join forces with each other, our army broke through Pan Lin's village without blood, and more than 1,300 people in Pan Lin's entire clan were beheaded, and none of them were spared."
The sailors also opened the conversation box and expressed their opinions:
"Wow! Pan Lin is so miserable, I am Pan Lin +1s. ”
“+1s”
"I just want to say, isn't it too cruel to exterminate the clan directly?"
"Hello White Lotus, goodbye White Lotus."
"Yidi, beasts also, afraid of power but not virtuous. This is an old adage. ”
"Rebellions have been exterminated since ancient times, and in troubled times, they should be re-enacted, and if they are not severely punished for the first time, it will inevitably be followed by a succession of latecomers......"
"Those who are not of my race will have different hearts, and the strong will be thieves, and the weak and humble, without regard for kindness and righteousness, and their nature will also be."
"Rong Di's human-faced beast heart, once he is unexpected, he will backfire and cause harm."
……
Zhang Fan pondered for a moment and said:
"What's the reaction from Shangoe's side?"
"The response was strong, and there were several small sect marshals who had been bewitched by Pan Lin's bewitchment before, and all sent envoys to surrender to Huanglongzhai......"
Zhang Fan continued to feed without raising his head, "And then?" ”
Mr. Zhang Zhao sent an envoy to severely reprimand them, and asked them to present the head of the tribal commander within three days, otherwise the army would break the cottage and leave no chickens and dogs. The six rebellious tribes did the same......"
A hint of warmth flashed in Zhang Fan's eyes, and he said approvingly:
"Jiangdong Erzhang, worthy of the name."
Gongsun Jing is confused, Jiangdong Erzhang? I haven't heard of it! Who is it?
At this time, Zhang Fan spoke: "Okay, as I expected. Shanyue doesn't need to say it anymore, let's talk about Dong Zhuo! ”
"No." Gongsun Jing narrated:
"Dong Zhuo has given up chasing us......"
The corners of Zhang Fan's mouth raised slightly, and he said confidently:
"If he doesn't chase it, if he really dares to chase him, I'll eat as much as he wants. I'm trying to teach them what guerrilla warfare is......"
Guerrilla warfare?
Gongsun Jing also gradually got used to the various fresh words that Zhang Fan suddenly came out, and he was already no longer surprised, and continued to report:
On September 20, Dong Zhuo abolished the Son of Heaven as the king of Hongnong and appointed the nine-year-old Liu Xie, the king of Chenliu, as the emperor. The year name was changed to the first year of the first peace, and the world was amnesty. ”
"Oh-" Zhang Fan's expression did not change in the slightest, this was all something he knew in his heart, and listening to Gongsun Jing's report was just to confirm it.
Gongsun Jing continued: "After the abolition of the emperor, Dong Zhuo did not like the Empress Dowager He again. So Dong Zhuo gathered the ministers and counted the so-called crimes of the Queen Mother to the ministers, with "The Queen Mother persecuted Yongle Palace, to the point of death, and rebelled against the gift of the maiden aunt." "As an excuse. Claiming that this kind of teaching, which violates the common sense of mother-in-law and daughter-in-law and does not emphasize filial piety and etiquette, should be severely punished. After that, Dong Zhuo ordered Empress Dowager He to move to Yong'an Palace, block the palace gate, and strictly prohibit the ministers from touching without authorization. ”
Zhang Fan sneered: "I heard that the Empress Dowager Dong and Dong Zhuo are of the same clan, why didn't she hear Dong Zhuo come out to fart when she was alive, and now that she has been dead for so long, jumping out at this time and pretending to be a filial son and grandson, isn't this self-deception?" ”
"What the lord said is very true." Gongsun Jing continued to report:
On September 23, Dong Zhuo ordered Li Ru to break into Yongle Palace, kill the Queen Mother and King Hongnong, and hang Princess Tang. The Manchu Dynasty was shocked, and the whole country was in an uproar. On the same day, Dong Zhuo ordered someone to dig up He Miao's coffin, take out the body and cut it into several pieces, and then throw it on the side of the road. Then he killed Wu Yangjun, the mother of the He family, and threw the body in the orange garden of the imperial hedge wall. The He family was wiped out by Dong Zhuoyi in an instant. ”
Zhang Fan's expression was still faint, without joy or sorrow, and Gongsun Jing continued:
"Since then, the entire imperial court has been almost completely subject to Dong Zhuo: the abolition of the emperor, the appointment and dismissal of courtiers, and the formulation of major policies are all decided by Dong Zhuo."
On September 25, Dong Zhuo proclaimed himself the marquis of the county, worshiped the prime minister, and became the head of the three princes, holding the power of prime minister. Enjoy the privileges of "praising and worshipping without a name, entering the court without trending, and going to the temple with a sword". ”
On September 26, Dong Zhuo named his mother Chiyangjun, and Yue Li was equipped with family orders and retainers, and her status was equivalent to that of a royal princess. At the same time, Dong Zhuo worshiped his younger brother Dong Min as the general of the left, named the Marquis of Yan, and also named his young granddaughter as the prince of Yang. What's more, the concubines held the neutron in their arms, and they were all marquis, and they were made with gold and purple. ”
After the marquis, Dong Zhuo tried his best to win over Situ Huangwan and Sikong Yang Biao, and promoted and supported Chen Fan, Dou Wu and others who had been degraded. Dong Zhuo not only restored all the previous titles of Chen Fan and others, but also promoted their children and grandchildren, so that they could be used for his own use from generation to generation. ”
"On September 28, Dong Zhuo re-promoted and appointed a large number of party members, such as Zhou Bismu, the secretary of the ministry, Wu Qiong, the secretary Zheng Gongye, the chief of the history He Hao, and the Sikong Wu officer."
Under Dong Zhuo's coercion and conspiracy, his rivals and many loyal ministers in the court were either forced to flee or eliminated by eradication. Dong Zhuo arbitrarily played with power tricks, and changed the order every day, so that everyone in the DPRK and China was in danger......"
……
As soon as Zhang Fan stretched out his hand, Gongsun Jing temporarily stopped reporting, Zhang Fan raised his eyebrows and said:
"That's it. It seems that Ding Yuan and I have taken over the power in one fell swoop, and Dong Zhuo's self-confidence, or ambition, has swelled more than before...... Ahem, faster than I thought! Has it been so inflated at this time alone? Wouldn't that soon make the heavens angry and the people angry? ”
Gongsun Jing didn't understand why Zhang Fan suddenly became a little excited, but Zhang Fan acted whimsically and unpredictable, so he didn't dare to ask more.
Zhang Fan instructed: "Monitor closely, keep an eye on it, I have a hunch that the day when we will meet Dong Zhuo is not far away......"
Gongsun Jing replied respectfully: "No." Yes, sir. ”
Zhang Fan suddenly changed his words, lowered his voice and said, "Well, that incident...... How's it going? ”
Gongsun Jing looked around and whispered:
"The fake death medicine you gave has a miraculous effect, and she has successfully deceived everyone, and now she has been placed on the outskirts of Luoyang City by the people of the tea division......"
Zhang Fan's eyes flashed with a cold light, and he said lightly:
"Secretly bring people back to Huanglongzhai to take care of them. But I hope that only the two of us know about it when it happens, you know what I mean? ”
Gongsun Jing saw sweat on his forehead, and said in fear:
"No, my subordinates understand."
Zhang Fan nodded, and Gongsun Jing bowed silently and withdrew...... (To be continued.) )
