Chapter 2 The Rise of the Heroes

Since receiving He Jin's secret order, Dong Zhuo led his army to Luoyang non-stop, and he was even more worried about missing the opportunity, so he personally led 3,000 cavalry to take the lead.

Although Dong Zhuo has now arrived at Luoyang City, his army still has five to ten days to arrive.

Seeing that the emperor in front of him kept crying and scolding, and even Dong Zhuo scolded him, Dong Zhuo suppressed his anger and asked in a deep voice: "Can anyone tell the last general what happened to the palace?" ”

Nine-year-old Chen Liuwang Liu Xie is actually very inconspicuous, because he is young, a child in a group of adults, who cares?

But at this time, Liu Xie calmly stepped out of the queue and recounted what happened in Luoyang City fluently.

After Dong Zhuo heard this, he couldn't help but glance at Liu Xiegao a few times, and learned that it was the emperor's brother, Queen Chen Liu, and bowed.

Then, Dong Zhuo personally pulled out his sword and unexpectedly began to kill the eunuchs beside the emperor, which frightened the emperor's cry even more deafeningly.

Facing the emperor who was crying so much that he was annoying, Dong Zhuo suppressed his anger, personally helped him onto his mount, Chitu, and then shouted loudly: "The Son of Heaven is back to the palace!" ”

……

Stepping into the Imperial City Changle Palace, Dong Zhuo had already put on his armor at this time, majestic and majestic, and walked slowly towards the Changle Palace with a sword in his hand, and he turned a blind eye to the corpses and blood along the way.

In front of Changle Palace, Dong Zhuo suddenly stopped, looked up at the majestic palace with his sword in both hands, closed his eyes and took a deep breath, and after exhaling, he said lightly: "The eunuch party is destroyed, the relatives are dead, the general, your glory and wealth, I will accept it." ”

After talking to himself, Dong Zhuo's voice suddenly became indifferent, and he said, "Li Ru, I only have three thousand soldiers and horses at this time?" How to deter the Imperial City West Park Army? ”

Not far behind Dong Zhuo, Li Ru, dressed in a gorgeous sleeve robe, stepped forward, smiling, stroking his beard, and a pair of narrowed eyes made it impossible to perceive the look in his eyes.

"The lord can let three thousand soldiers enter the city first, sneak out of the imperial city at night, and then swagger into the city early in the morning, after a few days, how many soldiers and horses the lord has in Luoyang City, no one knows. If the Xiyuan army wants to make trouble, it must first explore the truth and reality, and in the few days that the Xiyuan army hesitates, the lord's army will definitely arrive, and at that time, the overall situation has been decided. ”

Dong Zhuo, who showed a smile, praised: "People say that Yingchuan Guo Jiaqi seeks to crown the world, I think Li Ru is the crown of the world's strategists." Li Ru, let me ask you again, I, Dong Zhuo, have lived in Xiliang for a long time, and the world despises me, I want to stand up for power, how many people do I want to kill? ”

Li Ru, who always had a faint smile, whispered to Dong Zhuo's back: "The lord wants to show the people of Luoyang and kill a small official." The lord wants to show his authority to the hundreds of officials in the court, the three princes and the nine kings, the civil ministers and military generals, and they can be killed at will. The lord wants to stand up and show the world, hehe. ”

Dong Zhuo looked back with a stern face and asked in a deep voice, "What should I do?" ”

"Abolish the Emperor!"

Squinting eyes opened, and Li Ru suddenly changed into a solemn look, with loyalty and fanaticism for Dong Zhuo in his eyes.

Father-in-law! You have lived in Xiliang for a long time, and the Qiang barbarians are all subservient!

Why do you want to guard the country for this mediocre Han Emperor?

Why, Xiliang Dong Zhuo can't dominate the world?

Dong Zhuo closed his eyes and pondered for a moment, then opened his eyes again with a violent color, and asked in a deep voice, "What should I do?" ”

Li Ru stroked his beard and said with a light smile: "The lord first stabilizes the situation in Luoyang, and when the Xiliang army arrives, the lord will do the thing of abolishing the emperor again, at that time, the lord can go to win the support of Yuan Shao, the Yuan family has a very high prestige among the scholars, the lord entered Beijing this time, and the general's secret order mentioned that it was Yuan Shao who contributed to this matter, perhaps, the Yuan family will be the help of the lord." As for the abolition of the emperor, the nine-year-old King Chen Liuwang can be established. ”

Dong Zhuo, who had always obeyed Li Ru's advice, said hesitantly this time: "King Chen Liu? I see this son as young but mentally mature, and I am afraid it is not easy to control. ”

Li Ru shook his head and said easily: "Because of this, King Chen Liuwang will see the situation clearly, and now the Son of Heaven may do something ridiculous with a hot brain, and if the time comes, if the lord is forced to kill him, it is better to set up a King Chen Liuwang who knows the times." ”

After thinking about the key points, Dong Zhuo agreed with Li Ru's words, and he was also worried that the ridiculous emperor would do something that would make him in a dilemma.

Listening to Li Ru's strategy of concealing the sky and crossing the sea, Dong Zhuo stabilized the Xiyuan Army after entering Luoyang, and only one person saw through this strategy at that time, Taifu Yuan Kui, but he never broke it.

Six days later, the Xiliang army entered the city, and after another day, Ding Yuan led 50,000 troops to Luoyang City.

Ding Yuan insisted on entering the city but Dong Zhuo refused to let him, and the two armies started a vicious battle under Luoyang City.

The Xiliang army was defeated.

Dong Zhuo, who was stationed in the general He Jin's mansion, had an anxious look on his face, and after Li Ru arrived, he opened his mouth to ask: "Now that Ding Yuan's troops are in the city, my Xiliang army is good at attacking and not defending, what should I do at this time?" ”

Li Ru still chuckled indifferently and said, "If the lord wants to solve the current crisis, he only needs one thing." ”

Dong Zhuo hurriedly asked, "What?" ”

"Red Rabbit!"

After Li Ru finished speaking, he saw Dong Zhuo's face with reluctance, and then said: "Lord, you are a person in the high hall in the future, and it is better to leave the fight and killing to the generals." Ding Yuan's righteous son has the name of Lu Bu, now he is fighting outside the city, Lu Bu is brave, there is no rival in the Xiliang army, however, this person is greedy for money and lustful, and he is rebellious repeatedly, as long as the lord uses the red rabbit to recruit this person, he will definitely be able to let him attach, and let him kill Ding Yuan, and take the state army into his pocket, the lord not only has a peerless fierce general like a tiger, but also has an army of nearly 150,000, and the Xiyuan army still dares to move? can only belong to the lord, at that time, the lord has 200,000 soldiers, who in the world can be the enemy? ”

After Li Ru's persuasion, Dong Zhuo made up his mind to rebel against Lu Bu.

A few days later, the heroic and arrogant Lu Bu rode a red rabbit horse, held a Fang Tian halberd, and led Ding Yuan's head to lead the state army to surrender to Dong Zhuo, and after entering Luoyang, Lu Bu was accepted by Dong Zhuo as a righteous son.

The strength of the Xiyuan Army in the imperial city was not as strong as Dong Zhuo's army, and finally the whole army was forced to land, and all the generals were dismissed and appointed to other positions.

At this point, Dong Zhuo had 200,000 troops in Luoyang and completely controlled Yanjing.

Although Dong Zhuo came to the imperial city with a heavy army, none of the sergeants of the court regarded him in their eyes, because in the eyes of the world, Dong Zhuo was just a reckless man.

In order to establish his authority, Dong Zhuo began to plan the abolition of the emperor.

The first was to unite with Yuan Shao, Dong Zhuo invited Yuan Shao to the mansion and set up a banquet to entertain him, and the people present included many ministers of the DPRK and China.

After three rounds of drinking, Dong Zhuo publicly asked Yuan Shao's opinion on the abolition of the emperor, and Yuan Shao scolded him coldly and scolded Dong Zhuo angrily.

"Yuan Benchu! Do you think my Dong Zhuo's sword is an ornament? ”

Dong Zhuo pulled out his sword in anger, and the blade of the sword pointed directly at Yuan Shao.

The audience was silent, no one dared to say anything, and they all nervously followed the development of the situation.

Unexpectedly, Yuan Shao also pulled out his sword and pointed at Dong Zhuo, and said coldly: "Dong Zhongying, is it only your sword that can kill?" ”

Sabre-rattling, touch-and-go.

Dong Zhuo didn't make a move in the end, because Yuan Shao was a member of the Yuan family, and the current Dong Zhuo needed to win over the Shi clan, not force them to rebel.

After Yuan Shao drew his sword and left Dong Zhuo's mansion, he went straight to the mansion of Taifu Yuan Kui and told his uncle exactly what had happened before.

"Primatim! Well done! People in the world will see that my Yuan family is not in the same league as Dong Zhuo, but is the best in the world! Dong Zhuo already has the heart of the deposed emperor, you can't stay in Luoyang anymore! ”

Yuan Kui looked at Yuan Shao, who had high hopes for the entire Yuan family, and his old face was full of determination.

Yuan Shao also knew that Luoyang was a place of right and wrong, and if he didn't leave, he would be killed, so he nodded and said, "I went out of the city overnight and returned to my hometown in Runan." ”

"Nope! You go to Jizhou! Dong Zhuo named you the Bohai Taishou, and you will take office, Jizhou Mu Han Fu is not worth mentioning, and Youzhou Mu Liu Yu is also difficult to become a climate. Jizhou is rich, if you want to stand on your own, you must first base yourself in Jizhou! Yuan Kui waved his hand and formulated a route for Yuan Shao to fight for hegemony in the future.

Yuan Shao lowered his head and nodded in agreement after pondering, he thought that if he returned to his hometown in Runan, Yuan Shu would also return there, and the two would not know when the fight between them would end, so it would be better to go north and stand on their own.

When Yuan Shao urged Yuan Kui to pack up and set off together, Yuan Kui shook his head solemnly at Yuan Shao, grabbed Yuan Shao's forearm, and said in a resolute and deep voice: "Originally, if you started a crusade against Dong Zhuo, Dong Zhuo would kill the Yuan clan, at that time, the living people of the Yuan family were heroes, and the dead people were heroes, and the people of the world, who did not respect the Yuan family?" Uncle, this old bone can do your best for the eternal hegemony, and there is no regret in death! ”

"Uncle!"

Yuan Shao knelt in front of Yuan Kui with tears streaming down his face, crying bitterly.

Yuan Kui stretched out his hand to stroke Yuan Shao's shoulder, closed his eyes and said abruptly: "Originally, the Yuan family, handed over to you, the reputation of the fourth world and the third duke, my Yuan family has long been tired of it, promised uncle, stop you from tyranny, die!" ”

Yuan Shao clenched his fists, blood fell to the ground, kowtowed three heads to Yuan Kui, put away his tears, and said resolutely: "I, Yuan Shao, will live up to my uncle's expectations, and I will let the Yuan family reign in the world in this life!" ”

Yuan Kui stood tall and waved his hand to Yuan Shao with his eyes closed.

After leaving Taifu's Mansion, Yuan Shao left the city at night and went straight to the direction of Jizhou.

Not long after Yuan Shao left, Yuan Shu was taken aback when he got the news.

"Yuan Benchu! When you fled Luoyang, did you go back to Runan to fight with me for the family business? ”

Yuan Shu, who was in doubt, thought about it, and immediately left Luoyang and returned to his hometown in Runan.

Yuan Shao went to Jizhou to become the Bohai Taishou, and began to actively contact Youzhou Mu Liu Yu and Jizhou Mu Han Fu.

And Yuan Shu returned to his hometown in Runan and found that Yuan Shao did not come back, relieved but unwilling to have no territory, at this time, Sun Jian, who was killing in Jingzhou, slaughtered Nanyang Taishou, so Yuan Shu also led his relatives to occupy Nanyang and led Nanyang Taishou himself.

Although he did not get the support of the sergeant clan of the court, Dong Zhuo still insisted on deposing the emperor, and Liu Xie, the king of Chen Liu, was supported by Dong Zhuo to the throne.

In Changle Palace, Liu Xie was wearing the emperor's dragon robe and wearing the emperor's crown on his head, and he was ambitious to reorganize the mountains and rivers to rejuvenate the Han Dynasty, but he didn't expect a commotion outside the palace.

"What's the noise?" Nine-year-old Liu Xie, although he tried his best to put on a majestic posture, still owed the fire.

I saw the palace maid kneeling outside and didn't dare to squeak, and under Liu Xie's questioning, the palace maid fell to the ground and said in a panic: "Dong Xiangguo, Dong Xiangguo, the eldest princess was ...... by Dong Xiangguo"

"Say!"

"The eldest princess was so humiliated that she committed suicide by hanging a beam."

Liu Xie's face was bloodless, and he took a few steps back and sat on the ground.

Suddenly, Liu Xie roared at the spacious and empty palace.

"Guo Jia, you dare to bully the king!"
