Chapter 5 Li Si met Emperor Shao of the Han Dynasty and Lu Bu defeated Guan Yunchang
It is said that Li Si waited for a few days in Luoyang, and sent people to the mansion of the "Ten Standing Servants" every day to investigate, and the people under the "Ten Standing Servants" did not return for several days. Pen Fun Pavilion www.biquge.info Li Si asked people to wait near the palace gate, but if there was news, he immediately reported it.
That day, Li Si had nothing to do, and was practicing swords in the backyard of Guan Yi, when he suddenly reported from left to right: "The shouting in the palace is like thunder, for some reason." Li Si came to Ji Ling and discussed: "There is a shout of killing in the palace, there must be internal changes, could it be that someone is guilty of rebellion?" Ji Ling said: "This matter is very suspicious, why don't I go outside the palace to investigate." Suddenly, the people who went to Zhang Rang and other mansions came to report: "The mansions of the 'Ten Standing Servants' were all occupied by the Xiyuan Army, and the old and young in the mansion were all killed, for some reason. Li Si and Ji Ling hurriedly gathered everyone and rushed to the palace gate. The gate of the palace has been occupied by the West Garden Army, and it is heavily guarded, and everyone does not dare to approach. Ji Ling said: "You can go to the side door, maybe there are no guards." Then he led everyone to walk the alley and go straight to the North Palace. There were really not many guards at the side gate, and Li Si slowly approached the side of the road.
Suddenly, I saw dozens of palace maids and eunuchs, hurriedly rushing to the north gate, and the guards shouted to stop, and the palace maids and eunuchs still moved forward. The captain who guarded the gate immediately killed several people, but he still could not stop them, and about 20 people escaped from the palace. In the crowd, there were several people who were richly dressed and showed their status. There were four of them, and they went out of the palace gate, but they did not go with the people, and one of them was less than ten years old. Li Siyi's personal soldier said: "I know a person, and the one in brown is Zhang Rangye." Ji Ling said: "Zhang Rangding must have been chased and killed by He Jin, but he took advantage of the chaos to abscond out of the palace with his wife. The pro-soldier said: "General, Zhang Rang is a eunuch, why is his wife young." Li Si and the others were very puzzled in their hearts, followed them and followed. Walking lightly all the way, to the foot of the North Mountain, the four of them stopped to take a rest. At that time, the crescent moon came out slightly, with a slight shimmer. But two of the four were over the age of two, and the other was about ten years old. At about the second watch, Ji Ling shouted, and everyone rushed up, capturing all four of them in an instant. The young man was not panicked, and said sharply: "I am the king of Chen Liu, who are you waiting for, and what is the intention of arresting me?" Li Si didn't dare to slack off, hurriedly released the four people, panicked and said that the passing merchants, hurried here, and because he saw several suspicious people, he arrested each other. But he secretly beckoned, signaling everyone to surround Chen Liuwang and the others, silently. Chen Liuwang pointed to another young man and said, "This is the saint of today." He also pointed to the other two people and said: "These two people are Zhang Rang and Duan Qiye." Now they conspired to kill the general, and robbed His Majesty so far. You can kill it quickly, and this is a great achievement. Li Si and the others hurriedly saluted the saint, and got the order of Chen Liuwang to kill Zhang Rang and Cao Jie. Ji Ling hesitated. Li Si thought to himself: There are only these two people left in the "Ten Standing Servants" today, and it is difficult to become a climate, so it is better to kill them and achieve this success. Then he turned around and slashed one by one, and beheaded Zhang Rang and Duan Jue.
Li Siwei said to the young emperor: "You can't stay here for a long time, there are many henchmen of the 'Ten Standing Servants', and it will be dangerous if you chase them." We should swear to the death to protect the Holy Lord and King Chen Liu. The emperor said: "I know that you and others are good citizens, and if you can save me from danger, I will reward you heavily." Ji Ling hurriedly said: "The eunuchs and henchmen will be chased from the city, and we must not return to the palace." But for the time being, you can go the other way, and it will be safe. "Young Emperor Ran. Li Si stopped and said, "No." We are all in one place, and if we are unfortunately caught up, we will all be captured, so why not go our separate ways. I protect the holy drive to the east, and General Ji protects the king of Chen to the north, or can be avoided. "All are good. The emperor and King Chen Liu then parted ways. Li Si didn't know that this plan was enough to change the fate of the young emperor and even the future of the entire Eastern Han Dynasty. Later generations commented, is Li Si considered to be public? Is it private? Accounts differ and opinions vary. Li Si wanted to answer himself: "I'm really dissatisfied with Ji Ling's self-made cleverness and robbing me, and it's !! to think of a plan to show himself."
But it was said that Ji Ling kept King Chen and went north. After walking for less than a few miles, I suddenly saw a banner covering the sun, dust covering the sky, and a group of men and horses arrived. Everyone was discolored, and the king was shocked. Ji Ling stepped forward and asked, "Who is coming?" In the shadow of the embroidered flag, a general flew out and asked sharply: "Where is the Son of Heaven?" King Chen Liuwang stepped forward and said, "Who are you!" The general said: "Xiliang stabbed Shi Dong Zhuoye." King Chen Liu said: "You come to protect you; Thou hast come to hijack you? Dong Zhuo said: "I'm here to protect you!" King Chen Liu was overjoyed and said: "I am King Chen Liu, the Son of Heaven has traveled east, and Dong Thorn Shi can quickly look for it east." Zhuo Nai sent people to escort King Chen Liuwang into the palace, and brought his own army to the east to find the young emperor. Ji Ling and the others followed Dong Zhuo's rear team, gradually slowing down, hiding in the bushes and fleeing back to Qingzhou.
On that day, King Chen Liuwang returned to the palace, and when he saw the Empress Dowager He, he was in pain. In the inspection palace, the jade seal of the country is missing. Zhuo Xun has been looking for saints for several days, but there is no news. Nai asked Chen Liuwang again. Chen Liuwang Yansheng was rescued by Qingzhou merchants, Zhuo and others did not believe it, and because Ji Ling and others had escaped, there was no way to find out. The Son of Heaven is missing, and it is inconvenient to search for it, and I am afraid that the people's hearts will change, so the progress is slow.
Outside the city, Dong Zhuotun soldiers brought ironclad horse troops into the city every day, rampaging through the streets, and the people were panicked. Zhuo went in and out of the court, a little unscrupulous. Zhuo said to Li Ru: "The country can't be without a king for a day, I want to make King Chen Liu the emperor, but what?" Li Ru said: "The court has no owner, if you don't act at this time, it will change later." In the coming day, you can convene hundreds of officials in Wenming Garden, and you can abolish it; If there is a disobedient person who will cut it off, then the authoritarian act is today. "Zhuo Xi, the next day's big banquet, all the ministers were invited, and the ministers were afraid of Dong Zhuo, who dared not to arrive. Zhuo Yu said at the feast: "I have a word, and the officials will listen quietly." "All the officials are listening. Zhuo said: "The Son of Heaven is the lord of all peoples, there is no news for a few days, I am afraid of misfortune, the country cannot be without a king for a day, King Chen Liuwang is smart and studious, and can inherit the throne." Why do you think the ministers are like this? When the officials heard this, they did not dare to speak out.
Bingzhou Assassin Shi Ding Yuan pushed straight out, stood in front of the feast, and shouted: "Who are you, dare to say anything about the abolition of the establishment, ridiculous!" Amusing! Zhuo said angrily: "You want to die!" Then he drew his sword and wanted to cut Ding Yuan, but there was a person behind Ding Yuan, who was angry and majestic, holding Fang Tian's halberd and glaring angrily. Knowing that he must have great courage, he did not dare to move forward. Ding Yuan left angrily.
Zhuo asked again: "What I said, there is no contradiction?" Yuan Shao, a lieutenant of the Chinese Military Academy, stepped forward and said: "You are a border official, and you have no right to interfere with the abolition of the establishment!" Zhuo was angry again, and pointed at Yuan Shao and said: "The world's affairs are mine, not you!" Who dares to disobey me now? Thou shalt not be good for my sword!! Yuan Shao also drew his sword and said: "Your sword is sharp, my sword is not disadvantaged!" Zhuo wanted to kill Yuan Shao, Li Ru hurriedly stopped it, persuaded him with his ear, and said: "This Yuan Shao is the nephew of Taifu Yuan Kui." Most of the officials in the DPRK and China are former officials of the Yuan family, so they should not be in a hurry. Zhuo Qi retreated from Yuan Shao. Yuan Shao held a sword in his hand, bid farewell to hundreds of officials, and looked at Jizhou. Yuan Shaofang went out of the city gate, first looked back and looked a few times, but Dong Zhuoke had chased after him. After making sure that there was no pursuer, he suddenly felt much more comfortable, abandoned his sword to the ground, rolled up his sleeves and wiped the sweat on his forehead, and said in his heart: Good Dong Zhuo, frighten me.
After Yuan Shao went, the Manchu Dynasty did not dare to oppose it.
The next day, Ding Yuan fought outside the city. Dong Zhuo led the army to greet him. Lu Bu was brave, Zhuo was invincible, and retreated into the city. At night, Zhuo Bu will Li Su, bring red rabbit horses and gold and silver to Lu Bu. Lu Bu assassinated Ding Yuan, and all Ding Yuan's soldiers and horses came to Dong Zhuo. Dong Zhuo's strength has increased greatly, and his arrogance has become even more arrogant. Then Chen Liuwang was established as the emperor and changed to the beginning of the Yuan Dynasty. Known as Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty in history.
However, it is said that on that day, Li Si and the young emperor traveled eastward, and they did not travel for many miles, and they happened to meet Cao Jie, the "middle attendant", and the family general fled to this place. Cao Jie wanted to rob the Son of Heaven to succeed. Li Si desperately escorted the car, and died on both the left and right. Li Si and the young emperor broke out of the siege and went all the way to the east, wanting to return to Qingzhou together. The emperor did not travel for a long time, and he had no horses, and his speed was slow. Yu Lu, Li Si told the young emperor that he was the general of Qingzhou Huang Taishou.
A few days later, I suddenly saw a military horse in front of me. For the first flag, it said: Liu Bei, the plain minister. The emperor was overjoyed and said: "Liu Bei is the same sect as me, and we are waiting to be saved." Then he wanted to meet Liu Bei. Li Si wanted to bring the young emperor into Chengyang, but he met Liu Bei halfway, and he had nothing to do, so he resigned from the young emperor and returned to Qingzhou alone.
The young emperor met with Liu Bei and cried that he was in exile because of the rebellion of the "Ten Standing Servants". When Liu Bei heard the emperor's words, he cried loudly, and his sleeves were wet with tears. Then he raised a large army and escorted the Son of Heaven back to Beijing.
While he was on the march, he suddenly reported from the Malays. Dongzhuo of Xiliang has entered Beijing first, and supported Chen Liuwang as the son of heaven, and newly merged Dingyuan's subordinates, and accepted Lu Bu as his righteous son. Liu Bei said: "Dong Zhuo has 100,000 Xiliang cavalry, and annexed tens of thousands of cavalry in the state, and he has the forbidden army in Xiyuan, and I am afraid that the strength of the army is not less than 300,000." Liu Bei thought to himself: I want to take advantage of this God-given merit to try to go back, now Dong Zhuo has entered Beijing, if the emperor is Zhuo, we will return in vain. Nai and Guan Yu said: "Dong Zhuo is powerful, and Lu Bu is fierce, our army is far away, there are less than 20,000 soldiers and horses, and there is not enough food and grass, I am afraid it will be difficult to win." Guan Yu said: "Lu Bu is so good." I am willing to lead 3,000 troops as the vanguard, behead Lu Bu, capture Dong Zhuo, and correct the royal family. Liu Bei said: "The second brother should not be underestimated, and he should discuss again." Guan Yu Zhengse said: "If I don't win, please behead someone!" Liu Bei couldn't stop it, so he had to agree. Guan Yu led 3,000 troops and raided the Tiger Prison Pass. Xu Rong, the guard of the Tiger Prison, was unguarded, and was opened by Guan Yu, and the army entered the pass, and after winning this pass, the brigade went to Luoyang.
When Dong Zhuo heard that Liu Bei was coming, he gathered the civil and military to discuss. Guo Yan said: "Liu Bei came from afar, there is not enough food and grass, as long as he sticks to the city, his army will retreat." If our army pursues it again, it will be completely victorious. Li Ru said: "No." Liu Bei has always been hypocritical. Today, the slogan of the capture of the royal family came, and there are many people in the city who are dissatisfied with us. Now Guan Yu is the vanguard, we need to break it quickly with elite soldiers, Liu Bei will be afraid, and he will retreat. Dong Zhuo asked: "What strategy do you have to win Guan Yu." Li Ru said: "In the coming day, you can order a general to fight against Guan Yu under the city, and order a member to lead the army to attack Guan Yu." Guan Yu will be chaotic, but he can win. "Dong Zhuoranzhi, after Hua Xiong attacked him, Lu Bu attacked him.
In the early morning of the next day, Hua Xiong led 2,000 Feixiong troops out of the city from the south gate to ambush. In the middle of the day, people reported that Guan Yu was fighting outside the city. Zhuo ordered Lu Bu and Li Ru to go out of the city to fight. The two armies were in a round formation, and I saw Lu Bu wearing a golden crown on the top, wearing a hundred flowers robe, holding Tang Yi armor, wearing a lion barbarian treasure belt, and riding a halberd. Stepping in front of the battle and shouting: "Liu Bei has repeatedly received the emperor's favor, and he doesn't want to report it, and now he has no reason to march into Beijing, wanting to rebel!" Guan Yu said: "The anti-thief is Dong Zhuoye." Dare to dare to abolish the establishment. Now that the saint is driving to the tiger prison, Dong Thief only washes his neck and kills his ears. Bu was furious: "Hugh is talking nonsense! "Horses come to fight Guan Yu. Guan Yu also waved his sword to greet him. The two fought a big battle in front of the two armies, and the officers and men of the two armies were stunned and fascinated.
This side of the halberd is exquisite, majestic, like a god descending to earth; The sword technique on that side unfolded, and the momentum was like a rainbow, like a dragon going out to sea. There are 80 rounds of fighting, and there is no winner or loser. Suddenly, he heard a cannon sound behind Guan Yu's formation, and turned out a military horse, beating Dong Zhuo's banner, which was Huaxiong. Guan Yu was shocked, and hurriedly abandoned Lu Bu to fight Huaxiong. Hua Xiong shook his spirit and waved his sword to fight Guan Yu. About 20 rounds, no less. Behind him, Lu Bu killed again, attacked twice, and Guan Yu was defeated and fled. Most of the soldiers led by Guan Yu were killed and wounded, and the rest were surrendered.
Guan Yu fled to the Tiger Prison, leaving only more than ten horsemen. Liu Bei responded and returned to the camp. Guan Yu tied himself in front of the tent and said: "My brother is incompetent, he is willing to apologize for his sins with death." Liu Bei said: "Why should the virtuous brother be like this, you and I brothers live and die together, how can we be because of a temporary defeat, and the relationship between brothers and sisters." Victory or defeat is a common thing in soldiers, and virtuous brothers don't need to worry about it. Strategist Jian Yong said: "General Guan is brave and strategic, and knows the art of war, how could he fail so much?" Guan Yu said: "I replied to Lu Bu before the battle, and prepared to follow the order of the Son of Heaven, to salute first and then to fight, how could Lu Bu not help but say, he wanted to fight, and I was eager to fight." In Dong Zhuo's plan, he attacked our army back and forth, but there was such a defeat. Liu Bei said: "Dong Zhuo has set up a new master, so Emperor Lu Buwen was furious in the tiger prison. Today, Dong Zhuo is powerful, and there is Lu Bu's courage and Li Ru's strategy, which cannot be broken; And our army was newly defeated, and its morale plummeted. If you lead the army and the young emperor to return to the plain together, slowly try to do it. "It's the same for everybody. Then he withdrew from the camp.
Liu Bei's army and the young emperor were fortunate to be in the plain. On the one hand, the Plains Prime Minister's Mansion was changed to a temporary court, and on the other hand, people were made to announce to the world: the young emperor had moved the capital to the plain. He also invited the young emperor, and the holy decree summoned the princes of the Quartet to come to the plain to congratulate. The young emperor agreed.
