Chapter 35 Li Ru, who is benevolent and righteous
In the Tiger Prison, Dong Zhuo lay comfortably on the couch, as if nothing had happened, and he was not worried about his situation at all; Li Ru was very emotional when he saw Dong Zhuo behaving like this, and then sorted out his mood and said, "The thief army is powerful!" Wenhou was besieged by the allies again, and the soldiers had no heart to fight. Why don't you lead the troops back to Luoyang and move the emperor to Chang'an, in response to the nursery rhyme. β
"Oh? What nursery rhymes? Dong Zhuo asked with great interest, in fact, he had already had the heart to retreat, but there was no excuse, his reliance was nothing more than more than 200,000 Xiliang Xiaoqi under his account, he had to give an explanation to the soldiers, yes, he was thinking about how to find an excuse to withdraw from the army, so as to explain to the soldiers;
"Recently, the nursery rhyme in the market said: 'There is a Han in the west, and a Han in the east. When the deer enters Chang'an, there is no difficulty. The minister thought about this, "a Han in the west" should be passed on to Gaozu Wang in Chang'an, the western capital, and passed on 12 emperors; 'A Han in the east' should be Guan Wuwang in Luoyang, the eastern capital, and now it is also passed on 12 emperors. Fortune is back. The prime minister moved back to Chang'an, so he would be safe! Li Ru squinted his eyes and said;
Dong Zhuo ordered someone to go back to Luoyang to investigate, and sure enough! So he said to the soldiers under his command: It's not that my old Dong wants to retire! Providence!
Ancient people, especially the common people, were generally not highly educated, maybe they didn't even have the level of primary school students, they were very superstitious, and when they heard a nursery rhyme saying this, it must really be the meaning of God, and they couldn't resist, so they believed it;
And is that really the case? Definitely! It's really Li Ru's strategy!
He has done his best to plan a back road for Dong Zhuo, and moving the capital to Chang'an is undoubtedly a very subtle move;
Suppose that Dong Zhuo has no enterprising heart, and he also holds Liu Xie, the Emperor of Han Xian, in his hands, this is to coerce the Son of Heaven and deter the princes, even if they send troops to fight, they must consider the life and death of the Son of Heaven; And the Son of Heaven is in the hands of Dong Zhuo, and it is easy to give them a reputation as a thief, and Dong Zhuo also has an advantage in righteousness;
Li Ru expected that the coalition army would not be able to attack for a long time, and they would take the initiative to cede Luoyang would further intensify the conflict of interests between the princes, and the coalition army would be disbanded.
If Dong Zhuo experienced the princes fighting Dong and learned from the pain, he could make a comeback, because his base was in the land of Yongliang;
Chang'an is also the center of the Yongliang land, Dong Zhuo can rely on the danger of Hanguan and the blessing of Longguan, make great efforts, regain control of the Hanoi region, annex and annex the state, plot Hanzhong, and march into Shuchuan; In this way, the western territory of the Han Dynasty will be all under him, and it is not impossible to dominate the world if he works harder;
I have to say that although Li Ru has a flawed personality and is too thirsty for killing, everything else is good! In particular, his strategic vision can definitely crown the world! What a pity! What a pity! His investment in Dong Zhuo is like a pearl in secret!
Dong Zhuo was overjoyed and said: "If it's not for you, I really don't understand." So he took Lu Bu back to Luoyang in the starry night to discuss moving the capital.
Gathering Wenwu in the court, Dong Zhuo: "Luoyang, the capital of eastern Han, has been in decline for more than 200 years. I watched the sky at night, and the vigor was really in Chang'an, and I wanted to drive the west. You and others should be promoted. The devil believes in him! When will he also watch the sky at night?
Of course, many people don't want to move the capital, firstly, the princes of Kwantung will go to Luoyang to rescue them, and secondly, the bitter cold place of Chang'an is not what these people are used to;
Situ Yang Biao immediately came out to object: "Guanzhong is broken and scattered. Now there is no reason to donate the temple and abandon the imperial mausoleum, for fear that the people will be alarmed. The world is easy to move, but it is difficult to be safe. I hope that the prime minister will inspect it. β
Dong Zhuo was furious: "You know a fart!" That's a hundred-year plan! Do you know how to govern the country? β
Taiwei Huang Wan: "Yang Situ's words are true. In the past, Wang Mang usurped and rebelled, and even burned Chang'an when he was red, and it was all rubble; It is also the flow of people, which is unique. It is not appropriate to abandon the palace and go to the wasteland today. β
Dong Zhuo: "The thieves in the Kanto region are rising, and the world is in chaos." Chang'an has the risk of Kuihan; Closer to Longyou, wood, stone, bricks, and tiles, Keri can be done, and the palace is built, without more than a month. Thou shalt wait and rest the nonsense. β
Situ Xunshuang admonished: "If the prime minister wants to move the capital, the people will be in turmoil. Dong Zhuo was furious and said: "What I am doing is the hundred-year plan of the Han Dynasty!" What do those grass people love to do! βοΌ On the same day, Yang Biao, Huang Wan, and Xun Shuang were dismissed as commoners.
Dong Zhuo, who was in an extremely unhappy mood, went out to get into the car, only to see the two of them looking at the car, and at a glance, it was Shangshu Zhou Yu and Wu Qiong, the captain of the city gate. Dong Zhuo asked what was going on, and Zhou Yu said: "I heard that the prime minister wants to move the capital to Chang'an, so I came to admonish him." β
Dong Zhuo was furious and said: "Grandma's! I listened to the two of you at the beginning, and I used Yuan Shao; Now that Yuan Shao has rebelled against our family, you two bastards must be with him! β
So he ordered the samurai to launch the capital gate and behead him. Under Dong Zhuo's severe persecution, everyone in Luoyang moved the capital together, and they could do it in the next day. Li Ru said: "There is a shortage of money and grain today, and there are many rich households in Luoyang, but they have not entered the government. But Yuan Shao and other subordinates, killing his sect and copying his family, will get a huge amount of money. β
Dong Zhuo immediately sent an iron horse of 5,000 to arrest the rich households in Luoyang, a total of thousands, planted a flag on the head, and wrote "anti-ministers and anti-party", all of which were beheaded outside the city and took their money. Li Qi and Guo Yan drove millions of people from Luoyang to Chang'an. One team for each people, one team for the middle army, dragging each other; The number of people who died in the ravines is innumerable.
and arranged, the wives and daughters of the soldiers, and the food of the people; The sound of crying shook the heavens and the earth. If there is a person who is late, the three thousand troops behind him urge the superintendent, and the army holds a white blade in his hand and kills people on the road. Dong Zhuo was on his way to teach Zhumen to set fires, burn residents' houses, and set fire to the temples and palaces.
The north and south palaces are connected by flames; The Changle court is all scorched earth. He also sent Lu Bu to excavate the tombs of the first emperor and his concubines and take their golden treasures. The sergeants took advantage of the situation to dig up the graves of officials and civilians. Dong Zhuo loaded thousands of carts of beaded satin goods, robbed the Son of Heaven and the concubine, and went to Chang'an.
γ»γ»γ»γ»γ»γ»γ»γ»γ»γ» dividing line
The Xiliang army and horses of the Tiger Prison Pass withdrew unconsciously, and the princes who finally attacked the city under the persuasion of Cao Cao, with the Sun Jian troops of the Jiangdong Army as the vanguard troops, did not encounter the slightest obstacle, they occupied the Tiger Prison Pass, and their shit luck has exploded!
The princes rushed to Luoyang, looking at the flames in the distance, black smoke covering the ground, two or three hundred miles, and there were no chickens and dogs; Ministries organize firefighting;
The entire Luoyang City was in shambles, and under Dong Zhuo's wanton trampling and destruction, it was already full of holes and devastation. Cao Cao was so sad and indignant about this that he wrote a poem "Xulu Xing", which ridiculed: The thief holds the authority of the country, kills the lord and dies Yujing. Overthrew the emperor's foundation, and the temple was burned. Sowing more and more westward migration, crying and walking. The city of Zempolo, the micro-child is sad.
"What a fighter! It's time for the boss to do something! Li Yu also sighed, but this was predictable to him, so he just sighed, not too sad;
"Hmmm! Dong Zhuoxi went to Chang'an, and the people he held hostage were enough to be million, and the march along the way must be unhappy, as long as our army has tens of thousands of cavalry to pursue, it will definitely be broken in one battle! So as to welcome back the Son of Heaven! But! Hey! Cao Cao smiled, "Huaide! Come with me to visit Sun Jian! β
Seeing Cao Cao like this, he wants to take credit alone! I didn't want to tell the princes about the warplanes, in fact, even if I told them, they wouldn't go; However, he considered that his strength was only 3,000 cavalry, which was not enough to fight with the Xiliang army, so he thought of borrowing troops! Borrow troops with Sun Jian!
Of course, if Sun Jian also intended to pursue Dong Zhuo with him, Cao Cao would not refuse, in his opinion, Sun Jian was still several times better than those princes, even if he gave half of the credit, it would be better to give it to others;
Boss Cao is Boss Cao, and a blink of an eye is a Tao, he just wants to borrow troops from Sun Jian and doesn't say it clearly, but fools others and makes people lend him willingly!
"Brother Wentai!" , "Brother Mengde! The two greeted each other warmly, and Cao Cao said to Sun Jian mysteriously: "I came today to give Brother Wentai a big gift!" "Oh? Sun Jian was surprised, the friendship between the two was not deep, but they admired each other a little, but he didn't expect Cao Cao to be a big gift as soon as he opened his mouth, so how could he not be surprised;
"Then Dong Zhuoxi entered Chang'an, and he brought a lot of people and finances, so he will definitely not be fast, as long as we pursue, we will definitely be able to win a big victory! I have recruited more than 7,000 elite horsemen from my hometown! Plus my current 3,000 soldiers and horses! There are 10,000 people riding in total! As long as Brother Wentai is willing to join forces with us, we can return with a big victory! So that the princes can be impressed with us! β
Cao Cao was obviously talking nonsense with his eyes open, Li Yu rolled his eyes on the side, but did not say a word, he knew that Lao Cao was fooling others!
"This... - It's not that I don't want to, but I really can't, our army is tired, but! I can borrow 3,000 cavalry from Brother Mengde! To help the public! Sun Jian was also thinking, I lent you troops to win, I have half of the credit, and if I lose, it is just a loss of soldiers and horses, so he heroically sold his 3,000 soldiers to Cao Cao;
"Alas! ββWhat a great opportunity! That's right! I'm one step ahead! Brother Wentai must greet other princes when he encounters them, and rush to help me! Cao Cao pretended to sigh, he also understood that those princes would definitely not help him, they were more concerned about how the interests should be divided after the battle was "won"!
ps: Ask for recommendations and collections! In addition, thank you for the tip of the jade ten-fingered children's shoes! There is also the thief Jib's daily attention to the message, Brother Tai is a careful person, the little brother is ashamed! Hope to remind you in the future! Thanks!
