Chapter 156: The Princes Discuss Dong

Lu Bu saw that the second daughter really had a good look, although she was not as delicate as Du Xiuniang, but she was also a rare beauty, and the most important thing was that the second daughter had a son at a young age, so she had the idea of taking a concubine. Dong Zhuo hated Cao Ying for not knowing how to lift, and there was no reason not to agree, but the second daughter did not agree, especially the Bian family, and the resistance was particularly fierce.

Lu Bu is a person who cherishes flowers, and he doesn't want to force it, so he has to ask Li Ru for advice. Li Ru's mind turned to his heart, Cao Ying's assassination of the prime minister was a major crime of the three clans, and his immediate family members should be the head of the owl to show the public, as long as they threatened with Cao Pi'er's surname, they were not afraid of Bian's intransigence. Lu Bu was overjoyed and acted according to the plan, which really made the Bian family change his attitude, and Mrs. Yin was Cao Ying's concubine who had just been accepted, and she had nothing to do with Cao Ying's observance of the festival, plus Yuan Shu immediately sent someone to Luoyang City to spread the news that Cao Ying had died after hearing that Cao Ying had fled in Nanyang, and the second daughter also wanted to find someone to rely on to bring up the child.

In the end, after discussion, Lu Bu accepted Cao Pi and He Yan as his righteous sons, and successfully accepted two concubines! Lu Bu recognized two fathers in his life, but this time he recognized two sons, one should have been the later Emperor Wei Wendi, and the other was a great metaphysician, both of whom were figures in the sky. And the famous Empress Wuxuan Bian in history became Lu Bu's concubine, and Cao Zhang, Cao Zhi, and Cao Xiong could not have been born, and the historical trajectory has undergone a great deviation.

When the ministers of the DPRK and China learned of this, they all hated Dong Zhuo and Lu Bu, but they all dared to be angry but did not dare to speak. Ma Chao almost didn't laugh when he heard it later, but at that time, it was just a whim, and he wanted to use Lu Bukeng to take advantage of Cao Ying, but he didn't expect that even Mrs. Yin would be pitted. However, although Lu Bu is not a good character, he is still very good to his wife and concubine, as long as Lu Bu does not die, the second daughter may not be unhappy.

This move can be described as killing three birds with one stone! In history, Cao Ying gave Ma Chao's concubine Dong to Zhang Lu's advisors, and finally hanged Lu Bu at Baiyuemen, and took away Lu Bu's wife Yan and Diao Chan, which avenged the revenge between the two and Cao Ying. The most important thing is that Ma Chao robbed Lu Bu's concubine Diao Chan, Lu Bu has no Diao Chan in this life, but there are more Bian and Yi's, and he only makes money and does not lose money!

After Cao Ying fled, he went to the local officials in Zhongmu County to capture him, and the Zhongmu County Commander was Chen Gong, a native of Dongjun. So history developed according to the original track, Chen Gong not only released Cao Ying, but also rushed to Chen Liu with him to prepare to raise troops to fight against Dong Zhuo. Later, because Cao Ying accidentally killed Lu Bohao's family, the two parted ways.

The Cao family is a family of great wealth, and with the great help of the Chen Liuda family and the Wei family, Cao Ying is "loyal!" Under the guise of recruiting villagers, recruiting talents, placing ordnance and armor, erecting a white flag for recruitment, and writing the word "loyalty". In a few days, the recruits gathered like a rain. Such as Li Gan and Li Dian of the Li family of the Yanzhou family, the two brothers Xiahoudun and Xiahou Yuan of the Xiahou family, and Cao Ren and Cao Hong of the Cao family.

At the same time as Cao Ying was recruiting troops and horses, Qiao Mao, the Taishou of Dongjun, and Bao Xin, the prime minister of Jibei, and others discussed secretly, and contacted all the princes of the world to jointly crusade against Dong Zhuo in the name of the three dukes, and agreed that the army would join forces in Suojube. And wrote a self-written article and passed it on to various states and counties, because Dong Zhuo unilaterally announced his marriage with Ma Chao, so he only did not give it to Ma Chao, and deliberately hid it from him. The text wrote: "Proclaim to the world: Dong Zhuo deceived the heavens and the earth, destroyed the country and abolished the monarch, defiled the palace ban, mutilated the living souls, was unkind, and was full of crimes. Today, under the secret edict of the Son of Heaven, a large number of volunteers were gathered, vowing to sweep away China and kill the murderers. Wangxing righteous teacher, vent public anger, support the royal family, and save the people. The text is said. It can be pursued quickly. ”

However, it was said that after the two brothers Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu fled, they also immediately began to strengthen their power.

Yuan Shao fled Runan, and Dong Zhuo, in order to win over the Yuan family, gave Yuan Shao the post of Runan Taishou by the way. And Yuan Shao used to make friends with those heroic people who heard that he raised troops and also came to vote, such as Yan Liang, Wen Chou, Xu You, Xin Ping and other civil and military talents, plus the original Chun Yuqiong, Feng Ji, Guo Tu and others, the power developed rapidly.

Yuzhou is the nest of the Yuan family, and there are many protΓ©gΓ©s and former officials, plus Yuan Shao has a reputation for-for-tat with Dong Zhuo in the court. Yuan Shao has no shortage of money and food in his hands, and there is no shortage of civil and military generals, and he almost put the Yuzhou Assassin Shi Kong Ling, who had just taken office to replace Huang Lian, to the air. Later, while sending the generals Yan Liang and Wen Chou to conquer Ge Po and the Yingchuan Yellow Turban Thieves, and at the same time sending people to lobby, under the combined use of grace and power, the Yingchuan Yellow Turban Qu Shuai Liu Bi, Gong Du, He Yi, He Man and others have been attached, and in less than three months, they have attracted and incorporated an army of 50,000 or 60,000.

And Yuan Shu was not as lucky as Yuan Shao, after he fled to Luyang County, Nanyang, he could not get the support of Nanyang Taishou Zhang Zhi. In a fit of rage, he conspired with the only 2,000 Yulin troops dispatched by Koji Yi to attack and kill Zhang Shi, and took the post of Nanyang Taishou himself. It happened that Sun Jian, the Taishou of Changsha, responded to ask Dong to send troops to the north, but there was a conflict with Wang Rui because of the refusal of Wang Rui, the assassin of Jingzhou, to send troops, and Wang Rui was forced to commit suicide. Sun Jian came from afar and had no food and grass, so he led his troops to take refuge in Yuan Shu, wanting to rely on the fame of the fourth and third princes of the Yuan family to develop and grow.

Yuan Shu was overjoyed, and the two soon reached an agreement, determined to use the crusade against Dong Zhuo to establish meritorious fame. Sun Jian led the troops, and Yuan Shu was responsible for the supply of grain and grass and the commander-in-chief. But Yuan Shu did not cultivate the law, and used money plundering as capital, and he was insatiable in luxury, and the people of Nanyang were deeply disgusted with it.

Soon the princes from all over the country will learn from the sour jujube, with a total of 15 road troops, the first road: Yanzhou Thorn Shi Liu Dai. The second way: Yuzhou Thorn Shi Kong Ling. The third way: Chen Liutai guards Zhang Miao. Fourth Road: Dongjun Taishou Bridge Mao. Fifth Road: Shanyang guards Yuan's legacy. Sixth Road: Jibei Xiang Baoxin. Seventh Road: Guangling Taishou Zhang Chao. Eighth Road: Xiao Cavalry Captain Xingfenwu General Cao Ying. Ninth Road: Runan Taishou Yuan Shao. The tenth road: Nanyang Taishou Yuan Shu. The eleventh road to Changsha is too guarded by Sun Jian. The twelfth road, the general of Fenwei, Beiping Taishou Gongsun Zhan. The thirteenth road Beihai is too shou Kongrong. Fourteenth Road: Hanoi Taishou Wang Kuang. The fifteenth road: Xuzhou Thorn Shi Taoqian.

The princes of the fifteenth road led 10,000 troops, and 20,000 or 30,000 more, adding up to more than 200,000 troops. After discussion, Yuan Shao, who is the most famous, was elected as the leader of the alliance. While preventing Ma Chao and Dong Zhuo from joining forces, they made a bloody alliance and prepared to capture Luoyang. And at this critical moment, two major events occurred in Hedong and Jizhou that shook the world.

At the same time as Ma Chao transferred troops and food, he first asked Zhang Yan to lead 50,000 Montenegrin troops to Hedong County to loot large households. Due to the strong support of Ma Chao, the Montenegrin army now has bright armor and sufficient food and grass, although it is not as good as the regular army, but it is not far behind. Hedong is also Dong Zhuo's territory, which can not only threaten the capital Luoyang, but also cut off his retreat back to Guanzhong. Dong Zhuo really sent his descendant general Li Dao to lead the white wave thieves Yang Feng, Li Le and Yu Fuluo with a total of 40,000 troops against Zhang Yan's Montenegrin army, including the famous Flying Bear Army, and also sent Ma Chao to attack the Montenegrin bandits, after all, the two are still allies.

Ma Chao agreed to come down, and took the opportunity to let Lejin, Zhang Liao and Ma Dai lead the troops to gather in Shangdang County, and let Ma Tie lead 20,000 cavalry to cross the Yellow River and Fenshui and settle in Pingyang City. Dong Zhuo couldn't help but be overjoyed when he saw that Ma Chao had transferred troops to surround Hedong so quickly, and he really thought that Ma Chao was going to help him deal with the Black Mountain thieves! Even Li Ru didn't suspect this.

In December 189, Dong Zhuo sent Guanglu doctor Ma Yueyan as a messenger to send off relatives, and the general Hu Zhen led a thousand soldiers and horses along the way to protect him, and sent Princess Wannian and granddaughter Dong Bai to Yecheng to marry Ma Chao. In order to let everyone in the world know about this, Dong Zhuo asked Hu Zhen to slow down the itinerary along the way and publicize it, while these Xiliang Qiang soldiers robbed the people along the way, and everyone knew that it took more than ten days to walk for a month and a half before they arrived. Suddenly, Ma Chao became the second national thief after Dong Zhuo, and almost everyone regarded him as a gang with Dong Zhuo.

Ma Chao led the 3,000 Shenwei battalion, and took Mrs. Dong and a group of civil and military officials such as Ma Teng, Ding Yuan, Cai Yong, and Fu Zhu out of the city for twenty miles to greet them.

First of all, Ma Yueyan read out the congratulatory words of the Son of Heaven, and Ma Chao bowed down to receive the order, and took over the Luan of the princess of Wannian with the gift of the princes. Then it was Hu Zhen's turn to hand over Dong Bai. Ma Chao suddenly shouted: "Wait! After that, he deliberately pretended not to know and asked: "The relationship between Ben Hou and Princess Wannian was approved by the first emperor, and this matter is known to the world. But Miss Dong's matter is somehow? When is the bride price ordered? Who's the matchmaker? Ben Hou is a loyal minister of the Han Dynasty, how can he marry a national thief? ”

Hu Zhen was stunned for a moment, and said hesitantly: "This general is just acting on orders, but I really don't know about it!" Please also champion Hou Mofang! ”

Ma Chao pulled out the sword at his waist and shouted: "Dong thief deliberately plotted to rebel, bring disaster to the country and disrupt the government, and slandered Ben Hou. Today, there is a hussar general Ma Chao who inherits the will of heaven and the hearts of the people, and sends troops to defeat Dong thieves on the orders of the Empress Dowager Yongle! The army listened to the order and quickly took down a thousand thieves, and those who resisted were killed! ”

The 3,000 Shenwei battalion had already made preparations under the leadership of Ma Xiu, and with the order, they quickly surrounded the 1,000 Qiang soldiers who didn't know what was going on, and the strong bows and crossbows were ready. Hu Zhen was caught by Dian Wei behind Ma Chao by surprise and firmly pressed to the ground unable to move.

When a thousand soldiers saw that the Lord was about to be captured, they were unprepared, and they were surrounded in the middle by three or four thousand men with strong bows, and they were sure to die if they resisted, so they laid down their arms and surrendered. The 3,000 Kamui battalion immediately stepped forward and tied up the men.

Ma Chao sneered: "You will burn and kill silver plunder in Luoyang City, and you will be even more unscrupulous along the way, have you ever taken this candidate in your eyes?" I'm going to teach you a profound lesson today! After that, he shouted: "Ma Xiu listened to the order, interrogated these Xiliang Qiang soldiers one by one, let them expose each other's crimes, and those who took human lives were all beheaded, and those who committed less serious crimes cut off their ears to set an example!" ”

"Obey!"

Ma Chao looked at Hu Zhen and said: "You Hu Zhen aided the abuse, you should have shown the public, but there will still be a place for you, so I cut off your ears and punish you slightly!" ”

The Qiang soldiers were in an uproar and were pulled away one after another. Ma Chao said that, but how could these Shenwei Battalion soldiers have the time to interrogate one by one, and only 50 of them were selected from more than 1,000 people to cut off their ears, and the rest were all executed, and the bloody heads rolled to the ground. Hu Zhen's face was pale, and his heart was full of anger, and he was directly pressed to the ground by Dian Wei and cut his ears with a sharp knife, and the screams were endless!

Ma Yueyan was also frightened when he stood on the side, at this moment he finally understood why Ma Chao named him as the messenger to send his relatives, it turned out that he had already made up his mind to start a war with Dong Zhuo, and let him come to Yecheng to send his relatives was undoubtedly to save his life!
