Chapter 944: Luoyang Rebellion (5)

Dong Zhuo's heart was filled with a feeling of anger at the moment.

Drunken curses in a low voice and takes a sip of wine, or slaps the armrest hard. The guards near the carriage all subconsciously avoided the point, and no one wanted to become Dong Zhuo's punching bag at this time. There have been several unlucky ones before, and no one wants to be next.

"Dang Chang~~~" Another wine jug was thrown out of the window by Dong Zhuo, and after smashing it on the ground a few times, it was quickly picked up by a nearby sergeant. It's made of copper!

Dong Zhuo couldn't remember how many jugs of wine he had drunk along the way, he only felt that he needed wine very much to anesthetize his bored mind now.

Dong Zhuo is a smart man, he has a rare outstanding vision and foresight among the irritable and suspicious Xiliang people. The grasp of the general trend of the world is extremely accurate. He knew that after this defeat, he would hardly have a chance to come back.

Dong Zhuo is already quite old at this moment, and he has no adult son at the moment, which is also an important reason for the instability of the Xiliang army. After this heavy blow, his ambition will be completely wiped out!

For a hero who has tasted the infinite scenery, there is nothing more severe than this.

Dong Zhuo, who was already a little drunk, shook his fat body and shook his head vigorously. Immediately, he remembered Gao Yang, who made him angry.

This rural bun from Bingzhou actually has such a means to reach the sky, and in such a short period of time, he has pulled out an extremely powerful army. Not only has it made a great name outside the Tiger Prison Pass. The name of Wu Yong spread all over the world. He burned thousands of elite sergeants under his command to ashes overnight. This terrifying performance shocked and angered Dong Zhuo's heart!

It was not difficult to recruit sergeants in this era. In troubled times, as long as you can feed your mouth, you can pull out a large number of soldiers and horses.

However, these can only be pure cannon fodder and rabble. Once you face the really elite strong army. Naturally, it will melt away like spring and snow. Dong Zhuo, who participated in the campaign against the Yellow Turbans, saw this very clearly. The Yellow Turban Army, known as a million people, was beaten by tens of thousands of elite divisions of the Han Empire and lost their armor!

A strong army in the true sense of the word requires a large amount of supplies. If nothing else, the food alone is far more than those ordinary cannon fodder. Not only must you eat well, but you must also eat well, and you can't lack meat and wine. In this way, high-intensity training can be met to maintain the elite level of the army.

At the same time, the income of these elites is a huge expense. The sergeants are not alone. They all have their own families, and these people also have to support their families. There is not enough money. Who will die for you?

In addition, elite sergeants need sophisticated weapons and armor. There are even plenty of horses. Horses cost much more than soldiers. Especially in the Xiliang Army, which is famous for its cavalry. Add to that the wear and tear of their training and wartime, and it's definitely a huge expense.

Dong Zhuo did not fail to fight the idea of those dismissed Central Army. It's just that those Central Army who were born in Luoyang City are not on the same road as him at all. The Xiliang army under his command was also unwilling to accept a large number of soldiers and horses from other factions. In this era, the concept of regional and local compatriots is very important.

The most important reason is that the cost of feeding such an elite army is very staggering!

Originally, supporting a huge Xiliang army in a desolate place like Xiliang had already made Dong Zhuo and the others feel that they were about to be unable to support it. is also killing into Luoyang City. It was only after controlling the Sili area that the financial situation improved, thus expanding their soldiers and horses of the Xiliang system to this extent.

However, if you want to continue to support a strong army that is very questionable in terms of loyalty, it will seriously squeeze the living space of the Xiliang army.

On one side is the army of Hongo's homeland, and on the other side is an army that cannot guarantee loyalty. It's not an option at all. Even Dong Zhuo has no better way.

Dong Zhuo was jealous and angry that Gao Yang actually bought a large amount of goods by making mineral salt into refined salt, so that he was able to recruit a large number of strong soldiers of the Central Army who were dismissed by him.

And after those Central Army experienced this period of hardship, the dissatisfaction in their hearts had long been exhausted by the ruthless life. At this time, as long as it can meet their living needs, it will immediately be a strong and capable army!

It's cheap Gaoyang for nothing!

Dong Zhuo really didn't expect Gao Yang to be able to exchange salt for so much wealth. He didn't pay much attention to it when he first found out. But when he really understood the wealth within. He's red-eyed, too!

The husband is not guilty, but he is guilty.

If it weren't for Niu Fu's advance move, Dong Zhuo himself would have been unable to help but reach out to Gao Yang. Wealth is moving.

"This time, I must let Gao Zihou hand over the salt business. If you don't know each other. Then don't blame my men for being ruthless! Dong Zhuo, who picked up a wine jug again, squinted his red eyes and said to himself in a cold voice.

If he wins the war against the Kwantung Coalition Army, Dong Zhuo, who is shaking hands with the world, may not take Gao Yang in his eyes for the time being, and he will not ruin his reputation for these things. Dong Zhuo took his reputation very seriously before he was defeated.

However, he is now defeated. Although Dong Zhuo thought that he was defeated in the non-war, he was indeed defeated. Dong Zhuo, who lost the opportunity to dominate the world. Where would you care about fame at the moment? At this moment, under the great stimulation, he has already abandoned all pretenses. He was restored to his original self.

Brutal and insatiable!

......

"General Weichen Yangwei, Gao Yang, meet Your Majesty! Long live my emperor, long live, long live! Gao Yang, dressed in a military uniform and with bright armor, calmly saluted towards the Han Xian Emperor Liu Xie, who was sitting on the throne, but was ** years old.

Oh, the current Liu Xie is not called Emperor Han Xian, Emperor Han Xian is Liu Xie's nickname, and now he is only called Emperor in person.

Although Gao Yang was very dissatisfied with the tragic emperor's salute in his heart. But he understands very well what it means to be a big man who can bend and stretch.

Over the years, he has experienced countless winds and waves, and Gao Yang's heart has long been as solid as a rock. When the power is insufficient, it is necessary to keep a low profile. Of course, as long as the strength in his hands is enough, then Gao Yang will never be afraid of anyone or anything.

Gao Yang has lost the storage space and space-time channel he relies on at this moment, and he will not hold on to the so-called face until the strength in his hands is not enough to dominate the world. He also wanted to live well and return home alive. Saluting the emperor is nothing at all.

"Aiqing is flat." A childish voice sounded in the empty hall. There was a hint of majesty in his voice, as well as a hint of curiosity and nervousness.

"Thank you, Your Majesty." Gao Yang, who looked calm, stood up and bowed. Half-squinted, looking at his feet, he looked like a respectful and loyal minister who did not dare to look at the emperor.

With a delicate face, smart eyes, and fair skin, Liu Xie, who is no more than ** years old, wears a small Tianzi crown with a dark color fit, and wears a Liu's Tianzi crown made of bamboo skin, which is somewhat similar to a magpie's tail.

At this moment, Liu Xie, who is also precocious in the cruel living environment, is curiously looking at Gao Yang under the royal platform. Standing opposite Gaoyang, Wang Yun, who arranged this meeting, looked at ease with his eyes and nose and his nose.

"General Gao is excellent in martial arts and is familiar with military strategy. Hedong broke the white wave thieves and made great achievements for the Han Dynasty, and the widows were relieved. "The young Liu Xie is very precocious, which may have something to do with the sinister environment he is in. was poisoned by his biological mother just after birth, and grew up in conspiracy and calculation. If it weren't for its precociousness, it would have died a long time ago.

After putting away his curiosity, Liu Xie, who was holding on, praised Gao Yang's exploits seriously. As for the things before the Tiger Prison Pass, because the Kwantung Coalition Army was considered its own people, it was not mentioned.

"A little bit of effort, how dare you hang up for a long time." Gao Yang was very cooperative and continued to pat himself on the back.

Although Liu Xie is young, he is very smart. After continuing to talk nonsense with Gao Yang, he shifted the topic to Dong Zhuo, the common goal.

Dong Zhuo is an absolute peerless traitor in Liu Xie's words. What is brutal by nature, wanton murder, silver chaos harem, brutal killing of the young emperor and Empress Dowager He, chaos and so on. In short, in Liu Xie's mouth, Dong Zhuo is a traitor who is more brutal than Wang Mang.

Gao Yang naturally echoed the voice, and expressed his hatred of the same enemy. However, Gao Yang's heart was completely disapproving.

Dong Zhuo's things are indeed true, and he is indeed very brutal. However, he is not the only one who has done these things. It's just a common trait shared by powerful ministers. There are more people who have done these things in the history books.

Moreover, it doesn't matter if others scold Dong Zhuo. You, Liu Xie, have no position to say this. If Dong Zhuo hadn't killed the Young Emperor and the Empress Dowager He, where would it be your turn to sit on the throne Liu Xie? In fact, Dong Zhuo was the one who helped Liu Xie the most.

As for Wang Mang being a peerless traitor, it is even more of a joke.

Wang Mang is almost half of the confirmed traverser in the comments of later generations.

Wang Mang implemented a new policy, implementing the state ownership of land, redistributing land, banning slavery, forced labor, implementing a government monopoly on wine, salt, and iron, prohibiting private sales, and expropriating the rich who did not do production. The right to issue currency was withdrawn, and all natural resources were nationalized. Establish a state-owned low-interest loan system, and the imperial court will control prices, crack down on hoarding, and stabilize prices. A uniform tax was levied on the whole world, and all nobles and large merchants had to pay taxes.

Wang Mang dealt a great blow to the aristocratic merchant group of the Han Dynasty and gave the people at the bottom a chance to breathe. It is only because he offended countless stakeholders and took care of the disadvantaged at the same time that he was blackened by the Confucian scholars for thousands of years. (To be continued)
