Chapter 33 Relocation of the Capital
However, it was said that Dong Zhuo and the Kwantung Army were afraid of each other, and they did not dare to enter the army at will.
Dong Zhuo's side saw that the Kwantung Coalition Army was not twisted into a rope, and he was afraid that if he sent troops to attack the Kwantung Coalition Army, it would make the Kwantung princes hate the same enemy and unite closely, which would be unfavorable to himself, and now the Kwantung Coalition Army has a total of more than 300,000 people, and there are only more than 200,000 people on his side.
As for the side of the Kwantung Coalition Army, no one wants to be the first bird, after all, the rafters that come out of the country rot first, and everyone understands this truth. Moreover, the Kwantung princes all understand in their hearts that now that there is turmoil and turmoil has come, only the army in their own hands is their greatest guarantee, and everything else is false and nonsense. If you rush to send troops and your strength will be damaged, those friendly troops around you may not be good people, and you may soon become an enemy and swallow yourself.
For Dong Zhuo, it is now difficult to defeat the Kwantung coalition army for a while, and the overall situation is unfavorable to him. Although the White Polish army in Hedong has been defeated, there are still more than 15,000 remnants of more than 15,000 people who have fled to Hanoi Dong County and other places, and their own detailed work has also found that these White Polish troops are now colluding with the Yuvro Department of the Southern Xiongnu, and their intentions are unknown. If the Hanoi Taishou and the Kwantung princes have already colluded with the White Wave Army and let the White Wave Army board the ship from Hanoi, or unite with the White Wave Army to form a coalition army to board from Hanoi and force the crossing of Mengjin, then it may allow the White Wave Army or the combined forces of the White Wave Army and the Kwantung Princes to directly attack Luoyang City and besiege Luoyang, or they can drive from Mengjin to the direction of the Tiger Prison Pass, and attack themselves in front and back with the Kwantung Coalition Army outside the Tiger Prison Pass. If the form develops like that, it will be too bad for yourself. Therefore, he intended to move the capital to Chang'an, occupy Xingsheng, rely on the favorable terrain to block the Kwantung princes, and also sit and watch the internal fighting, success or failure of the Kwantung princes.
However, as the boss, I can't bring up this kind of thing, if I advocate it first, others will definitely say that I am afraid of the grandsons of the Kwantung princes.
is still his good son-in-law Li Ru understands himself. One day, Dong Zhuo organized a court meeting in Luoyang to discuss the princes of Kwantung, did not listen to the dispatch of the imperial court, and privately raised troops to knock on the customs. I saw one person in the squad come out of the ranks, and played loudly: "Today, our army is fighting with the Tiger Prison Pass and the Kwantung group of thieves, holding each other, the Kwantung group of thieves is very numerous, nearly 300,000 people, and colluding with the Yellow Turban remnants and white wave thieves, sending elites, forcibly crossing the Yellow River, threatening the Beijing division Luoyang, although our army is strong and brave, it is difficult to destroy the group of thieves for a while. It is better to lead the troops back to Luoyang and move the emperor's capital to Chang'an, in response to the current nursery rhyme. Recently, there is a nursery rhyme circulating everywhere on the street, which says: 'There is a Han in the west, and a Han in the east.' When the deer enters Chang'an, there is no difficulty. Chen Si said: "The first Han in the west" corresponds to the rise of Emperor Gaozu in Chang'an, the western capital, and passed on the 12 emperors; When the fortune of heaven returns, the prime minister moves back to Chang'an, so that he can be safe. ”
When Dong Zhuo heard this, what this good son-in-law said was so good, it was so intimate, he really thought about what I thought, and what I was anxious about, so he said loudly: "Wen You's words are exactly what I want, and now that our army is not in a good position, I should have done it a long time ago." What do you think?" When I said this, I thought to myself, whoever speaks out against it, Lao Tzu will cure him.
Sure enough, there are really stunned young people who don't shoot to death and don't want to die.
So Situ Yang Biao spoke out against it.
So Taiwei Huang Wan spoke out against it. They all spoke a lot of truths.
So Situ Xunshuang spoke, but did not directly object.
Dong Zhuo saw that these people were typical representatives of the family, and he directly despised shì in his heart, isn't it just a few ministers of the three princes, he knows that he is crooked all day long, and he can't do anything serious, so Xun Shuang can be a little bit, and he also knows how to annotate scriptures and translate ancient texts every day. The other two are the second ancestors who eat and wait for death all day long.
This Situ Yang Biao and Taiwei Huang Wan also thought in their hearts that you, Dong Zhuo, are you not just a child of a good family who was born in Hedong, you accidentally took a shit luck and got mixed with today's high position, what skills can you have, can you know how to govern the country, can you know how to govern the country than our children of the family of poetry and books, and the children of the princess of the world? Governing the country still depends on us professionals from the noble clan.
Dong Zhuo thought again, these two poles that can only talk about empty words, Lao Tzu now has a horse in his hand, a knife and a gun. Kill whoever you want. If any of you dare not listen to Lao Tzu's words and act without looking at Lao Tzu's eyes. As soon as Lao Tzu is unhappy, he will dismiss your officials. Let you go home and play with your grandchildren.
Situ Yang Biao and Taiwei Huang Wan also thought that this Dong Zhuo is a butcher, he is great if he has a knife and a gun, and He Jin, the butcher, also has a knife and a gun, and someone has a horse. How did it turn out that he was not dead. Besides, the Kwantung princes are about to come over, but we, the ministers of the noble clan, will be liberated, and we will no longer have to suffer from you, an illiterate man. Then let the Kwantung princes kill you eighteen times.
To say that this Dong Zhuo is indeed a good son of a good family in the six counties of Hedong, according to the current words, he is a child in an advanced five-good family, and was later recruited as Yulin Lang, and then fought bravely, promoted all the way, and finally took advantage of the eternal opportunity of He Jin's war to enter Luoyang and dominate the world. It can be said that he is a poor disciple of the Eight Classics. And Situ Yang Biao and Taiwei Huang Wan are all the second generation of officials and several generations of officials. These families have been married for generations, and no one in the family has been the third prince, you are embarrassed to be friends with them, and the family has never been out of the third prince, and you are not birded. In today's terms, there is no Lao Tzu or grandfather at the national or deputy level, and he is embarrassed to come out and mix at all, and he is not a person in the circle at all.
It is still Mao Taizu's sentence "power comes out of the barrel of a gun" that works best.
The result of the confrontation between Situ Yang Biao, Taiwei Huang Wan and Dong Zhuo was that their jobs were gone, and they both went home to hug their grandson.
Dong Zhuo also wanted Zhu Jun, one of the three famous generals who suppressed the Yellow Turban in the late Eastern Han Dynasty, as his deputy and let him be the deputy prime minister. As a result, this old boy is a thief and a thief, thinking that you Dong Zhuo is awesome, Lao Tzu can't provoke you, can't he hide from you? So he excused himself from his lack of ability, it was difficult to take on a big responsibility, etc., and he resigned, and asked Dong Zhuo to ask for another master.
Hearing the news that Dong Zhuo was going to move the capital to Chang'an, Dong Bai was also shocked, could it be that the catastrophe of history would be repeated again, as a conscientious person, he must not let such a thing happen again, so Mao Sui recommended himself, took the initiative to ask to take it, and asked his cheap son Dong Zhuo for his life: "Father is on top, I heard that my father is still hesitant about the person who will preside over the relocation of the capital, and the child wants to take the order to take office and share his father's worries." ”
Dong Zhuo saw that his precious son was asking for his life, and he also hesitated slightly, and said: "Shouye, you are still inexperienced now, how can you command everyone to move the capital!" ”
Dong Shouye replied: "Ambition is not old, father, although the child is young, but the heart of the father is worried, I hope that the father will be fulfilled, and the child wants to preside over the relocation of the capital this time, is to learn more experience, if the father is worried about the child's lack of experience, you may wish to send a few more experienced talents to the child as a guide, when the child has a difficult problem, you can also ask them, ask them for solutions." ”
Dong Zhuo pondered for a while, and said to Dong Shouye: "In this case, my son will preside over the relocation of the capital. As for the auxiliary candidates, I will discuss it with your eldest brother-in-law again. You go down and get ready! ”
So Dong Shouye retreated.
Subsequently, Dong Zhuo named Dong Bai as a partial general, and officially ordered his baby son to preside over the relocation of the capital, and divided the relocation of the capital into two parts, the migration of the royal family and ministers was responsible for Shangshu Zheng Tai, and the ordinary people and materials and grain were responsible for their own baby son Dong Shouye.
Now Dong Bai has 4,000 grizzly army elites under his headquarters, 4,000 grizzly bear troops led by Li Dao, 2,000 Xiyuan army and 3,000 Baibo troops led by Zhang Liao, 2,500 troops from the Xu family led by Zhang Ji, 2,500 troops from the Baibo army, 2,500 troops led by Xu Huang and Yang Feng, and 8,000 people from Dong Zhuoxin, a total of 31,000 people. So, Dong Bai allocated half of the 8,000 people to the new junior brother Hua Xiong, and the remaining 4,000 people led 2,000 by himself, and the other 2,000 were handed over to Xu Huang to lead the training.
Dong Shouye also ordered all the people in the army to protect the royal collection of books in the Luoyang Imperial Palace.
Regarding Dong Shouye's order to focus on the protection of national collections, Hua Xiong, Yang Feng and other generals were puzzled, so they asked Dong Shouye: "Young master, why are you so concerned about these useless broken books when you preside over the plan to move the capital this time?" ”
Dong Shouye smiled, looked at Zhang Ji, and asked out loud: "De Rong, tell me why I value these book collections so much." ”
Zhang Ji thought for a while and replied aloud: "The book collection is the accumulation of hundreds of years in the big year. Significant and precious. Naturally, it needs to be strictly protected, and when the world is peaceful in the future, the literary affairs will flourish, and then these book collections will come into play. ”
Dong Shouye was very happy to see that what Zhang said was also very good, and called Zhao Hu, the captain of the personal guard, to do a good job of isolation, not to let idle people and others enter and exit without authorization, and to ensure that what he said would not be overheard by others, so he said to these henchmen and generals: "You are all my henchmen, and today I will share what I think with you." ”
When Xu Huang, Zhang Liao, Zhang Ji, Li Dao, Hua Xiong, Yang Feng and others heard this, they immediately sat down and listened quietly.
Dong Shouye paused and said: "My father, like everyone here, is from a humble family, and he has always been despised by those wealthy families. My father and the lord of the court are also full of contradictions, which are difficult to ease. These wealthy families have mastered the culture of poetry and books, and if people from poor families want to achieve something, they must be sheltered by these families, so that they can study the scriptures and read history, and read and hyphenate words. It can be said that these wealthy families monopolize knowledge and culture, and if people from poor families want to learn knowledge and culture, they must want these wealthy families to bow their heads. This time, I guarded the book collection, because I wanted to keep these book collections in my own hands, and when the situation was stable, I would arrange some people to sort out the books and use them for my use. It can be said that this collection of books will be the foundation for the future development of our army. ”
Zhang Ji was very excited when he heard this, and said loudly: "Young master, I thank the young master on behalf of the poor students in the world. ”
Dong Shouye said again: "De Rong, don't be excited, I am also selfish." I also hope that you will work together to protect our future. ”
The generals should be in unison.
