Not only that, Dong Zhuo also often caught some people, and used these people to carry out various torture experiments, what cannon burning punishment, what legendary wine pond meat forest, Dong Zhuo all had to demonstrate with living people, what to dig the heart, Ling Chi, five horses to split the body, in addition to the torture that appeared before, Dong Zhuo also created some new tortures, such as riding a wooden donkey, the so-called riding a wooden donkey is like this: first erect a wooden pillar on a piece of wood, hang the tortured woman, put it on the top of the wooden pillar, and make the wooden pillar poke into the lower body of the woman, Then let go, let the woman's body fall, until the wooden pillar, through the mouth and nose, often for several days before she loses her breath. There is also intestinal extraction, the so-called intestinal pumping is to perform intestinal extraction. The specific method is to tie a rope between a horizontal wooden pole and hang it high on a wooden frame, with an iron hook at one end of the wooden pole and a stone block at the other end, like a huge scale. Put down the iron hook at one end, stuff it into the prisoner's anus, pull out the large intestine, hang it on the iron hook, and then pull the stone at the other end down to the hook, so that one end of the iron hook rises, and the prisoner's intestines are pulled out and hung high in a straight line. The prisoner screamed a few times, and died of anger after a while, Dong Zhuo was extremely cruel, which can be seen.

This is not counting Dong Zhuo also invited many ministers of the court to watch the performance together, and once, many officials of the court and China were invited to a banquet by Dong Zhuo. The officials were puzzled, and they didn't know what medicine was in Dong Zhuo's gourd. At the banquet, Dong Zhuo was in high spirits and beckoned everyone not to scruple and drink freely. After three rounds of drinking, Dong Zhuo suddenly got up and said mysteriously to the people present: "In order to help everyone drink, I will present a wonderful program for you, please enjoy!" "Finished. High-fived and laughed wildly. Suddenly. The whole feast became a place of execution. Dong Zhuo escorted the hundreds of northern rebels who had lured the captives to the center of the meeting hall and ordered the soldiers to cut off their tongues. Then some had their hands and feet cut off, and some had their eyes gouged out. The cruelty of his methods made all the officials and soldiers present miserable, and many of the guests were so frightened that their chopsticks fell to the ground. Dong Zhuo was as if nothing had happened, still drinking freely, and there was a smug look on his face. Guan Yu has also been invited to watch it a few times, and he is entangled in his heart, although he is used to seeing swords and swords on the battlefield, but he still feels uncomfortable when he sees this situation. After all, these people are innocent, Guan Yu later simply refused Dong Zhuo's invitation on the grounds of official business.

On another occasion, Dong Zhuo wrapped hundreds of captured rebel soldiers around their bodies with strips of cloth, turned their heads upside down, and then poured oil on them and burned them alive by setting them on fire, which can be described as extremely cruel.

Dong Zhuo's perverse behavior was not only manifested in the punishment of the Li people under his rule, but also in the attack on dissidents in the DPRK and the power struggle between the DPRK and China, Dong Zhuo defeated the Kwantung Army. has become the most powerful force in the world, Dong Zhuo's power has swelled unprecedentedly, and he is even more domineering with heavy troops. If there was an opponent who did not say a word, he was immediately executed, and sometimes he simply walked up to the man with a sword and stabbed him to death. The official to the Yue cavalry captain, the word Deyu. A native of Runan Wufang (now Suiping, Henan). There are few big festivals. It is a book under the county gate. Later, the general He Jin became a subordinate of Dongcao, and then moved to serve in Zhong, Henan Yin, and Yueqi lieutenants.

This Wu Fu has long hated Dong Zhuo's perverse and brutal injustice. Wolffu was determined to assassinate him with his own hands. So, he wore a court robe and went to see Dong Zhuo with a sharp blade in his arms, and Wu Fu finished his words and said goodbye to Dong Zhuo. Dong Zhuo got up and sent him to the door of the pavilion and caressed his back with his hand affectionately. Wu Fu took the opportunity to draw his sharp blade and stab at Dong Zhuo, but he didn't hit. Dong Zhuo struggled to resist, and then called for the left and right to arrest and kill Wu Fu, and scolded: "Do you want to rebel? Wu Fu said loudly: "I can't wait to tear your traitor into pieces in the middle of the street, so as to apologize to the gods of heaven and earth!" He died before he could finish speaking

After Dong Zhuo came to power, the state system changed day by day and was capricious, seriously hindering the normal operation of the entire state power apparatus. Among them, the legal punishments he promulgated were particularly chaotic and unorthodox: severe punishment laws were often imposed on ordinary people, and for cronies, they were not prosecuted for violating the law, everything depended on Dong Zhuo's personal will, in order to accumulate huge wealth for himself, Dong Zhuo destroyed a large number of common five-baht coins, and also ordered all bronze people, bronze bells and bronze horses to be broken and recast into small coins. The shoddy small money is not only lighter in weight than the five-baht coin, but also has no coat of arms, and the edges of the money have no outline, which is not resistant to wear and tear. The circulation of small money directly leads to severe inflation: the currency depreciates, and prices skyrocket. According to historical records, it probably cost tens of thousands of dollars to buy a stone valley at that time. The common people are miserable, and their lives are in excruciating misery.

Dong Zhuo used the army to firmly control the entire Luoyang, and truly achieved the goal of supervising the country with the army, seeing that his strength had reached its peak, Dong Zhuo also had the idea of improving his identity and status, Dong Zhuo had already done state affairs before, but the position of prime minister was still a courtier under the emperor, but the status of the ministers was higher, Dong Zhuo's current power was like the sky, how could he be willing to be only a mere courtier, Dong Zhuo decided to establish himself as the king after repeated consideration, add nine tin, and do the things of the Son of Heaven.

Dong Zhuo made up his mind to first gather his subordinates, tell his thoughts to everyone, let his cronies make a voice above the court, open their eyes for themselves, and he himself watched behind the scenes, and it was his son-in-law Changshi Li Ruye who was the purpose for him, Guan Yu was also invited to participate in this meeting, he secretly pondered in his heart: God wants him to die must first make him crazy, Dong Zhuo's move will definitely attract the unanimous opposition of the ministers of the court and China, it seems that his end is coming to an end.

After Guan Yu attended Dong Zhuo's meeting, he couldn't help but wonder: Dong Zhuo has taken action now, his current atrocities are getting more and more intense, and the next thing must be that there are ministers of the DPRK and China who are going to secretly rectify him, and there will be a coup d'état soon in the future, so he must act immediately now and be prepared for accidents, first of all, Guan Yu took stock of his current situation.

Now Guan Yugui is a general, has become the highest military commander, can command any other general, but this has a premise that in the event of a war, he has the right to mobilize other armies and generals, once a coup d'état occurs, it is difficult to say, the most important thing in the army is to support the people, especially the generals in the army, who he is loyal to will naturally support whom, so once a coup d'état occurs, it is very important for many generals in the army to support whom.

Dong Zhuo has cultivated a lot of confidants and generals in the army over the years, like Li Dao, Guo Yan, Zhang Ji, Zhang Xiu, Wenpin, etc., in addition to these people, Dong Zhuo also has his own relatives who love his younger brother Dong Wen, son-in-law Niu Fu, Li Ru, and these people take on important positions and firmly control things in the army, of course, their status in the army has also increased day by day over the years, through training soldiers, rehearsing formations, and promoting generals, Guan Yu's prestige in the army is also quite high, but compared with Dong Zhuo, it is still a little inferior

This is mainly manifested in the generals, Dong Zhuo has a total of eight henchmen, and Guan Yu only has Zhang Liao and Li Yan, of course, there is also a good friend Li Su, a total of only three people, and the other is Wen Ping is also a protégé of Guan Yu, or Guan Yu's trust, so Guan Yu has only four henchmen, less than Dong Zhuo in number, but Dong Zhuo's eight people are only Guo Yan, Zhang Ji, Zhang Xiu, Dong Wen These people are only Guo Yan, Zhang Ji, Zhang Xiu, Dong Wen These people are only a few people on the side of Luoyang, Li Ru is a civilian official who can only give advice, and his prestige in the army is very limited. And Wen Ping is a two-way character that can be used by Dong Zhuo and can also serve Guan Yu, carefully scrutinize Dong Zhuo's side is only four generals, and there are only two generals on his side, if he can recruit Li Su, he is a three-member general on his side, of course, he is also an important member, so this camp is actually four people, Dong Zhuo's side is also four people, in this sense, the gap is not very big, but the most important thing at the moment is to win over Li Su and Wen Ping as soon as possible, if these two can contribute to themselves in the future, Then his strength will be greatly enhanced, and once a coup d'état occurs, he can compete with Dong Zhuo.

Guan Yu made up his mind, and took active action, since the battle of Tiger Prison Pass, Dong Zhuo's generals have many rewards, all the generals have been promoted, and the military power of many generals has also expanded a lot, and the soldiers and horses brought by him have naturally increased a lot, just take his favorite generals Zhang Liao and Li Yan as an example, these two people have assisted themselves before, and they have been mixed with themselves, and there is no independent military power, since this war, both of them have become generals of Zhengwupin, and the number of troops in their hands has reached more than 10,000 people, In total, there were 30,000 soldiers and horses.

Besides, Wen Ping was crowned as General Pingdong, before he was just a "bodyguard" under Dong Zhuo's account, although he was the leader of the people around him, but Wen Ping did not have independent military power, but there were connections, and he did not have much influence in the army, but he brought some teams when he was in Xiliang, and Wen Ping repeatedly fought in this war with many merits, and the whole person gradually established his prestige in the army, the real "landlord old wealth", the soldiers are strong and strong.

Why did you get promoted so quickly? First, because Wenpin has served as Dong Zhuo's "bodyguard", as Dong Zhuo's deep trust in the people around Dong Zhuo, Dong Zhuo has the most say in the promotion of this issue, and the promotion of Wenpin is also fateful; The second is that Wenpin does perform very well, has many records, and the force is also very good, the quality is still passable, and there is no problem in terms of personal ability; Based on these two points, Dong Zhuo vigorously promoted Wenpin to important positions, of course, Dong Zhuo also had his intention to ask the people around him to serve in important positions, what was his intention? That is to increase one's voice in the military, promote the generals you trust for your own use, and in the event of an accident, you can get the strong support of these people (to be continued). )
