"A certain family doesn't dare!"

Dong Zhuo arched his hand and said, he was also a little afraid, Zhang Liao said that he didn't know, the internal chaos in the army, this has always been a taboo, if he and Yuan Shao really turned their faces, then there is no benefit, his temper really needs to be suppressed, his instinct was immediately suppressed by his loyalty to Ding Yuan, and he didn't dare to say anything more.

This is also his temper is too rebellious, of course, at this time his ambition will not be there, with the existence of the Three Kingdoms space, the loyal general, there is absolutely no possibility of betrayal, loyalty does not reach the level of loyalty, maybe because of the relationship of loyalty, and will not do things with heart, and Yuan Shao completely turned his face, but now Dong Zhuo, who has long been a die-hard loyalist, is naturally impossible to do so.

And Zhang Liao looked at Dong Zhuo's softness, nodded slightly, and then said to Yuan Shao: "Yuan Benchu, do you know each other"!

Zhang Liao's words were extremely indifferent at this time, and they didn't give Yuan Shao face at all, which was also Zhang Liao's anger, although Dong Zhuo was reckless, but Yuan Shao was more wrong.

This is the second time, the first time he made a wrong judgment because of his self-esteem, and he was arrogant and had a tendency to be unstable, and this time it was his self-esteem that attacked first, and directly interrupted Dong Zhuo's words sneeringly, which is no wonder Dong Zhuo directly refuted.

If it were another other general, it might be a little better, soft-tempered, and would argue with him and persuade him, but Dong Zhuo wouldn't.

Such a heroic character, how can he be persuaded lightly. Although his ambition is gone, his instinct is still there, and he is still unwilling to be subservient to others. This other person is not as capable as him, for example, the five later generals who are on an equal footing with him.

If Zhang Liao said him, he would still be convinced, but Yuan Shao was a little disdainful, how could he let Dong Zhuo give him face.

You must know that Dong Zhuo in history has achieved the limit of what a minister can do, such means. In fact, Xiao Ke, this kind of life can be said to be worse than his Yuan Shaoqi.

"The last will know what is wrong!"

Yuan Shao also knew that his reaction was really a bit excessive, and he didn't dare to refute it. At that moment, he bent over with his fists and said, Zhang Liao at this time does not just represent himself, he is a person appointed by Ding Yuan himself to give priority to the right of battlefield commander. It also represents Ding Yuan's will. Now that Ding Yuan's majesty is even more mentioned, then Yuan Shao's self-esteem is naturally firmly suppressed by the die-hard loyalist, and no matter how strong his self-esteem is and extremely sensitive, he doesn't dare to be so arrogant.

"Okay, this matter is indeed as Dong Zhuo said, since the enemy has made a move. It's hard to deal with, but the battlefield itself is full of variables. The enemy scouts act, then our army will send more manpower again, why be pessimistic, the war needs to be cautious, but prudence is not cowardice, it is not to calculate perfectly, it itself has to constantly change to spy on the military situation, and the most important thing is to distinguish the priorities clearly! ”

Zhang Liao's face was softened, and he said slowly, in fact, although he scolded Dong Zhuo, and later scolded Yuan Shao, but there was a basis, because he himself agreed with what Dong Zhuo said, grasp the initiative on the battlefield, as the real main force of the decisive battle, this is the perfect situation in Zhang Liao's plan, and their most important task is naturally to lure the snake out of the hole and completely eliminate the fifteen-nation alliance.

Now that the enemy's scout tactics have changed, and there is the possibility of spying on their military intelligence, then it is natural that there will be a change, and it is not possible to give up other things for the sake of the so-called battlefield merits, and meritorious service can be made at any time, but the main thing in the war is the goal, if the purpose cannot be accomplished, then how can the merit be established.

This is also where Dong Zhuo is stronger, Dong Zhuo, who is not corrupt and degenerate, is indeed a hero among people, and he really has the talent of a general, which is why Dong Zhuoming does not have many subordinates on his face now, but after comprehensive consideration, Ding Yuan still let him be a general, that is, his supporters and his talent can serve as a general!

It can be said that; In terms of military talent, among the ten generals under Ding Yuan, Zhang Liao and Cao Cao are both masters of tactics and strategies, and their comprehensive abilities are comparable, while Lu Bu is a simple master of tactics and invincible tactics, these three are indistinguishable, and the fourth should be counted as Dong Zhuo.

What a miracle it is to be able to complete the counterattack of Dick Silk with a small number of generals!

Dong Zhuo's rising power swelled rapidly. In order to curb the continued growth and spread of Dong Zhuo's power, the Eastern Han Dynasty court recruited Dong Zhuo as a young government that did not hold real power in the sixth year of Zhongping. Dong Zhuo understood the intentions of the imperial court, so he politely refused and refused to take office. Emperor Ling was seriously ill and hurriedly summoned Dong Zhuo and worshipped him as the pastor of the state, and his troops were subordinate to Huangfu Song. The ambitious Dong Zhuo was naturally dissatisfied with such an arrangement and appointment by the imperial court, so he replied to Emperor Ling: "The size of the soldiers has been similar for a long time, and they love the grace of the ministers. Refusing to hand over the right to the army, he immediately led his troops into Hedong to watch the changes of the times.

Since Dong Zhuo led the army to conquer the Qianghu and suppressed the Yellow Turban Army, he was reused by the imperial court many times because of his outstanding military achievements, and he was constantly promoted, especially after defeating the attack of Han Sui and others, his power grew stronger and stronger, forming a mixed army with Liangzhou people as the main body, and mixed Hu and Han people. Although the imperial court restrained Dong Zhuo, Dong Zhuo, who was becoming more and more full-fledged, became more and more ambitious and had no one in his eyes because of his military exploits and prestige.

He is good at government affairs

After the garrison of Hedong, the whole of Longxi became Dong Zhuo's sphere of influence, he not only controlled a strong armed force, was a local warlord Haoqiang, but also a court official, a border minister. With his great strength and extremely inflated ambitions, Dong Zhuo began to devise concrete steps to win the central power.

In April of the sixth year of Zhongping (189 AD), Emperor Liu Hong of the Han Dynasty died in Jiade Palace, and was succeeded by the Young Emperor Liu Wei. Because Liu Wei was young and did not know anything, the Empress Dowager He was temporarily in charge of the dynasty, and the imperial power was even weaker. The struggle between eunuchs and relatives to gain special power to control imperial power became increasingly fierce. The two sides did not hesitate to resort to a single means to squeeze each other out and fight to the death.

Dong Zhuo, who was well aware of the factional disputes in the imperial court, was overjoyed when he learned the news of Emperor Ling's death, and he closely watched the movements of various factions in the imperial court, ready to take corresponding measures at any time, and acted at the opportunity. Dong Zhuo dominates the Beijing Division

Soon, Dong Zhuo, who was waiting for an opportunity in Hedong, received a secret order from the general He Jin. He Jin is the uncle of the young emperor and represents the power of his relatives. After the death of Emperor Ling, he and Yuan Shao, the captain of Sili, conspired together to kill Zhang Rang, but was opposed by Empress Dowager He. So, He Jin lured Dong Zhuo to take advantage and summon him to Beijing immediately to crusade against Zhang Rang in the name of the holy decree, and used this to coerce the Empress Dowager He. After Dong Zhuo received the holy decree, he was overjoyed, immediately gathered people and horses, led the army into Beijing for several days, and according to He Jin's meaning, wrote to the young emperor, asking for "chasing the evil on the side of the king" and "collecting the army to clear the traitorous and filthy".

However, Dong Zhuo never expected that before he could reach Luoyang, He Jin was killed by Zhang Rang and others in the battle.

At this time, Hu Ben Zhonglang will Yuan Shu (?) 199 AD) was also in Luoyang to command the army, and after hearing the news that He Jin was killed, he set fire to the Nangong and chased Zhang Rang and others. Zhang Rang and Duan Si, the chief attendant of the Zhongchang Dynasty, hurriedly abducted the young emperor Liu Wei and Liu Xie, the king of Chen Liu, and fled in the middle of the night to Xiaopingjin (southwest of present-day Gongxian County, Henan Province), the crossing of the Yellow River. Dong Zhuo, who was marching, saw a sea of fire in the capital from afar, knew that the situation had changed, and heard that the young emperor was in Beimang, and Dong Zhuo hurriedly led his troops to go. The young emperor was so frightened by the swarming army that he panicked and burst into tears. Dong Zhuo was majestic, swaggered forward to see the young emperor, and asked him about the incident. The young emperor stammered and spoke incoherently, but Liu Xie, the king of Chen Liu, who was standing on the side, took the initiative to step forward and tell Dong Zhuo about the whole incident, and the narrative was unambiguous and clear. At that time, Liu Xie was only 9 years old, a full 5 years younger than the young emperor. Dong Zhuo was very happy, thinking that Liu Xie was much stronger than Liu Wei, and because he was personally raised by the Empress Dowager Dong, he had the initial idea of deposing Liu Wei and supporting Liu Xie.

After Dong Zhuo welcomed the young emperor to the palace, he coerced the Son of Heaven to order the princes and began to intervene in the central power of the entire Eastern Han Dynasty.

Dong Zhuo, who has been commanding troops for a long time, deeply understands that if you want to conquer hundreds of officials and control the imperial court, you must first have a strong military backing. When he first arrived in Luoyang, Dong Zhuo's subordinates did not have more than 3,000 troops, and in order to create a strong military deterrent effect on Luoyang from the beginning, he ordered his subordinates to sneak out of Luoyang quietly at night every four or five days, and then march into Luoyang the next morning. All the people of Luoyang, including the officials of the imperial court, were intimidated by Dong Zhuo's strong strength and did not dare to have the slightest deviance.

Although illusions can temporarily deceive people, they will eventually be seen through. Of course, Dong Zhuo's move could only be an expedient measure, and after a slight adjustment, he began to take practical actions to expand his troops and gain military power.

After the general He Jin was ambushed and killed by Zhang Rang, his general Wu Kuang had a deep resentment against He Jin's younger brother He Miao (then a general of the chariot cavalry), believing that He Miao was unwilling to cooperate with He Jin, and also suspected that he had colluded with Zhang Rang to jointly deal with He Jin. Wu Kuangnian thought that He Jin was kind to him on weekdays, and vowed to kill He Miao and avenge He Jin. He mobilized his soldiers and told them: "It was He Miao, the general of the chariot cavalry, who colluded with Zhang Rang to kill the general, and we must avenge the general!" So, he united with Dong Zhuo's younger brother Dong Min to attack He Miao together. After He Miao's death, Dong Zhuo took advantage of the fisherman's profits, and incorporated He Jin and He Miao's troops without a single soldier.

It was extremely important to control the central power and control the military power of the Luoyang Weiwu army, so Dong Zhuo made specific arrangements and sent his henchman Lu Bu to kill Zhi Jinwu and take over all the defense forces in the capital. From then on, Dong Zhuo not only controlled a large number of conventional troops, but also controlled the troops directly under Luoyang, and fully possessed the military foundation to influence the government. This adds a considerable amount of leverage to his ambitions to swell further.

From these struggles, there is an element of luck, but it is really impossible to have the ability to strategize, which is also why Ding Yuan considers Dong Zhuo as a fundamental factor for the general, and grasps the opportunity in the battlefield, this is the act of a cow, the glory of the first half of the entire Three Kingdoms, in fact, can be said to be Dong Zhuo's, and then the glory of the Three Kingdoms in a narrow sense, Dong Zhuo ranks fourth, there is no doubt!
