Chapter 16: The Battle of the Poisoners

Although this era is slow, it is not absolutely closed.

For the local magnates and princes, they each have their own channels of information.

As soon as the soldiers and horses of the imperial court in Luoyang started, Dong Zhuo knew the news.

Outside the big tent, the drum sounded three ways.

Dong Zhuo convened the generals to discuss the matter, and said worriedly: "Ladies and gentlemen, the imperial court actually gave me a high crown of a traitor, and I came here by edict, but I became a traitor, and the official was angry in his heart. ”

Under the tent, Hu Zhen raised his head and thought for a while, "General, it seems that the imperial court sent a letter some time ago, saying that foreign generals are not allowed to enter Beijing without an edict, otherwise it will be regarded as a rebellion, could it be because of this incident?" ”

The eyes of the other people in the tent looked at Hu Zhen like fools.

It's been a few days since the text came, and they wouldn't know?

The state pastor doesn't know?!

You're just a smart guy, aren't you?

"What's wrong? Isn't it because of this? Hu Zhen asked suspiciously.

Dong Zhuo, who was wide and fat, like an adult bear blind man, glanced at Hu Zhen and said earnestly: "If it weren't for you Hu Wen to be good at fighting and loyalty first, with your brain, you are only worthy of raising horses for me." ”

Rao is Hu Zhen's brain is not good, and at this time he also sensed that something was wrong.

As for him, he still couldn't hide his words, and when he thought of something, he said it directly on the spot, "General, I understand my humble position, it must be the general that you have resisted the decree twice, and the court is suspicious of you." ”

"Otherwise, then we are here by the order of the general, how can the court regard us as traitors and send troops directly."

Dong Zhuo sneered, "You are right this time." ”

"Empress Dowager He, a poisonous woman, first designed to kill Empress Dowager Dong, and then imprisoned her own son, that is, His Majesty today, and united with his elder brother General He Jin to follow Huo Guang and completely control the court. Hmph, idiot dreams! ”

"People of insight in the world will never sit idly by and watch them act so recklessly!"

"I am not the state pastor Dong Zhuo, I am willing to be the pioneer of King Qin, and the generals are willing to follow me?"

The generals responded, "I'm waiting for you!" ”

There is no need to discuss anything at all, just hit wherever you point.

Just when this group of people was angry, the green-shirted scribe under the tent suddenly spoke: "My lord, I think about it, and I always feel that this matter is a little strange. ”

"Where do you come from?" Dong Zhuo asked.

Li Ru, who had thin cheeks and prominent cheekbones, shook his head slowly with thought on his face, and said: "General, I heard that Empress Dowager He is a favored eunuch, and I think I am a right-hand man. If she was in charge of the imperial court, why would she let Yuan Shao kill the ten permanent servants? ”

"The one who wants to kill the ten permanent servants is He Jin. This person was born in the butcher's door, but his ambition is not small, and the power of the Ten Standing Servants is too great, and he is afraid that he will not be able to see it for a long time. Dong Zhuo said, "He Jin is taking the opportunity to eradicate dissidents!" ”

"Isn't it because He Jin wants to kill the eunuch, and the Queen Mother doesn't allow it, that I'm here?"

Li Ru bowed slightly, "In this way, Yuan Shao should be a henchman of He Jin!" ”

"That's exactly what I expected." Dong Zhuo said.

"In this case, the overall situation between the DPRK and China should be between the palms of the He brothers and sisters." Li Ruyu said quietly, "Has the general ever thought about it, His Majesty is now forcibly supported by He Jin's maternal uncle, and among the ten permanent servants, it is Chen Liuwang Xie." ”

"In that case, how can Your Majesty be imprisoned?"

The corners of Dong Zhuo's mouth grinned, and he smiled coldly, "A childish heart, who he is close to, he thinks about whom, how can he remember any kindness?" How can you tell the difference between good and evil! ”

As soon as this question was answered, the situation between the DPRK and China gradually became clear in this military tent

Li Ru said with a cold smile on his face: "In this case, I have some doubts, why did the army under the command of Huangfu Song appear in Yin, Henan?" ”

As soon as this question was raised, everyone racked their brains to think about it.

Hu Zhen was like the most active good student, and took the lead in shouting, "What else is there to ask about this?" ”

"He must have the same idea as the general, and he wants to take the opportunity to enter Chang'an and control the imperial court."

"Although that old boy shouts every day that he is loyal to the society, he is actually wilted and wilted."

Dong Zhuo's bronze bell-like eyes instantly widened.

"If you can't speak, you'd better shut up!" He scolded.

Hu Zhen laughed, "General, you really can't think of that kid too well, he's really not a good person." ”

"Shut up, you!" Xu Rong clenched his fist on Hu Zhen's shoulder.

Li Ru smiled, "What General Hu said is not completely unreasonable. ”

"But I think that Huangfu Song is probably really coming to King Qin."

"Your Majesty can secretly send the secret decree to the hands of the lord, then it can naturally be sent to the hands of Huangfu Song."

Dong Zhuo's pair of thick eyebrows instantly became entangled together, "This is not right, Huangfu Song also entered Henan Yin without an edict, why did the imperial court only recruit me, but was indifferent to this thief?" ”

Li Ru said: "There are too many things to talk about here! ”

"But the humble position is more inclined to the imperial court to borrow the hand of Huangfu Song to target the lord."

"Although the lord and the emperor are at odds, we should face up to the enemy."

"Huangfu Song is a righteous and upright person, he looks down on He Jin, and he will not be complicit in him."

Dong Zhuo's face turned black when he said this, and the corners of his mouth twitched slightly.

He doesn't like to hear the truth.

"The more I listen, the more chaotic it becomes!" He scolded indignantly.

Several generals under the tent were even more dazed than Dong Zhuo at the moment.

"That...... Sir, otherwise you just say what Huangfu Song is going to do, and what He Jin is going to do! Hu Zhen grinned.

Xu Rong, Hua Xiong and the others sitting next to him all nodded frantically.

They want to say the same thing.

Li Ru nodded, and said directly: "If it is not expected by the humble position, the emperor should be serving His Majesty's secret decree." ”

"But this person is based on the will of the court, even if it is King Qin, he is afraid that he will do it in a dignified and upright way, and he will not use swords and soldiers. Instead, they will use the means of the above and reasoning to fight for these stupid women. ”

Dong Zhuo nodded and agreed, "He will definitely do this." ”

"Since this is the case, then Huangfu Song will become the knife in the hands of Empress Dowager He and He Jin, and get rid of the biggest threat to you, the lord, first." Li Ru continued.

"As soon as you die, my lord, it is too simple for the imperial court to seize the military power of Huangfu Song and get rid of him."

"Such a person only needs a holy decree!"

Dong Zhuo nodded thoughtfully, "What Mr. said is to the point!" ”

Hu Zhen stretched his neck and shouted, "But, having said all this, who should we hit first now?" ”

Dong Zhuo turned his head and yelled in disgust, "Come on, throw this bastard out to feed the horses!" ”

"General, what's wrong with me? Xu Rong and Hua Xiong don't necessarily understand. When he was dragged out by the soldiers, Hu Zhen did not forget to argue fiercely.

"This shit!" Dong Zhuo snorted coldly and looked at Li Ru, "So, according to Mr. Zhi, who should we hit first?" ”

Li Ru: ......

Xu Rong, Hua Xiong, et al: ......

"The humble position thinks that he will kill He Jin first, seize his army, and base himself on the Beijing division." Li Ru tugged at his sparse beard.

"Don't forget, my lord, you also received His Majesty's secret order!"

This sentence can be regarded as a thorough understanding of Dong Zhuo's thinking.

"Come on, eight hundred miles to expedit, send an order to Niu Fu, and increase the number of troops for labor!" Dong Zhuo shouted, and the sound shook in all directions.

……

He Jin's march was like Wang Ba hurrying away.

In one day, they walked less than ten miles in total.

Moreover, He Jin also gave the court a series of tables while walking, asking for money and food.

In just one day out of the capital, he has already issued three performances in a row.

Although his army marched extremely slowly, He Jin himself had already approached the Sunset Pavilion.

He only brought Chen Lin and three thousand elites with him, as well as Yuan Shao, a reluctant puppet.

When night fell, He Jin had already seen Dong Zhuo's dense camp.

"Kong Zhang, what should I do next? Is it easy to cause misunderstanding by rushing in directly? He Jinchong, who was in the dust, asked Chen Lin.

Chen Lin suddenly had a resolute look on his face, and said in a shocking voice: "I am only here thanks to the trust of the general, and the general is hiding his whereabouts here, wait for a while, and I am willing to take about three or five to enter the enemy camp in person, meet Dong Zhuo, and promote this matter!" ”

Chen Lin's words moved He Jin instantly.

"I have Kong Zhang, it's really like a ovary!" He Jin said with great emotion.

Chen Lin arched his hand, "It is not advisable to stay here for a long time, gossip and wait for the triumph of the lowly position, and then talk carefully with the general, and the lowly position will be one step ahead." ”

After ordering the three servants, Chen Lin rushed out.

He Jin stood in place and sighed for a long time, "I should have reused Kong Zhang earlier, otherwise, why would it be like this!" ”

Yuan Shao, who was standing not far away, pursed his lips viciously.

Wait until you die, you idiot!

If you believe the villain or not, you deserve to be cut by a thousand fucking cuts.

……

Chen Lin entered Dong Zhuo's camp and did not cause much movement.

He met Hu Zhen outside the camp gate who was herding horses, and was directly captured.

"Who are you?" Hu Zhen sat on horseback, condescendingly looking at Chen Lin, who was tied up with five flowers.

Although Chen Lin was embarrassed, his momentum was still proud, "Chen Lin, the head of the General's Mansion." ”

Hu Zhen buttoned his nose, "Muddy horse, why haven't I heard of such a thing as you?" ”

Chen Lin's eyes closed slightly, and he said disdainfully: "It doesn't matter if the general doesn't know now, he will definitely know in the future!" ”

Hu Zhen laughed, "You turtle son, listen to what you mean, you will definitely be famous all over the world in the future?" ”

"Not in the near future, maybe in the near future." Chen Lin said confidently.

"What you said made labor and management a little curious!" Hu Zhen flicked his fingers, and a black boogier flew straight towards Chen Lin.

But Chen Lin didn't even change his face, and he was calm.

Hu Zhen jumped off the horse's back, slapped the horse's chin, let the horse run away, patted his palm and said, "Okay, labor and management will give you a chance today, you want to see my general, right?" I'll show you the way. ”

"I hope you're a smart person and don't get cooked by my general."

"I really want to see if you can be famous all over the world."

After speaking, he picked up Chen Lin, who was tied up by five flowers, and walked in the direction of the barracks.

At this time, Dong Zhuo had already fallen asleep.

He went to bed early, not because he was sleepy, but because he had other things to do.

"General, there is a guy who claims to be Chen Lin, the head of the Great General's Mansion, who asks to see him, do you want to see him?" Hu Zhen slapped away the soldiers guarding outside the tent, and shouted loudly.

Chen Lin tilted her head and closed her eyes.

Suddenly, he was worried about his life.

Soon there was the sound of falling objects and the cries of women in the tent.

"General, did you hear that?" Hu Zhen was stupidly happy and shouted again.

As soon as his words fell, Dong Zhuo bared his chest and arms, and rushed out angrily.

"Let you feed the horses, what about the horses?" An angry Dong Zhuo roared angrily.

Hu Zhen threw the tied sturdy Chen Lin on the ground, "General, I'll feed it!" ”

After saying that, turn around and leave.

Don't give Dong Zhuo a chance to continue to lose his temper at all.

Dong Zhuo, whose anger burned to his head, stepped on Chen Lin's body and asked, "Who are you stepping on?" ”

"Chen Lin, the master of the General's Mansion!" Chen Lin leaned on her body and was calm.

"He Jin's messenger?" Dong Zhuo sneered.

Chen Lin forcibly raised his head under Dong Zhuo's feet, "I am Your Majesty's messenger." ”

"Huh?" These words aroused Dong Zhuo's curiosity, "Your Majesty has a will?" ”

"Isn't the will already in the bad of you?" Chen Lin said.

Dong Zhuo's complexion changed slightly, "Then what are you doing here?" ”

"I have come to inform Dong Bingzhou that the time has come to send troops, and you should send troops to attack He Jin." Chen Lin said.

Dong Zhuo snorted coldly, "How can the battle array attack be child's play? You don't need to say much about this, I will know it in my heart! ”

"What else, tell me one by one!"

"Dong Bingzhou naturally understands the art of war and strategy than his subordinates, but He Jin has been deceived by his humble position to five miles outside the camp, and there are only three thousand knights by his side, which is an opportunity for the general to work hard for the lowly position." Chen Lin said.

Dong Zhuo looked at Chen Lin with scrutinizing eyes, "How did Ben know that what you said was true?" ”

"The lower officials dare to swear in the name of His Majesty." Chen Lin said, "General Xu, joining the Beijing Division, isn't this what Dong Bingzhou wants?" ”

"Ben would have wanted to be right. But do you think I'll believe you, a lonely and unknown man, when you speak to me about it? Dong Zhuo sneered.

"Dong Bingzhou can not believe it." Chen Lin smiled coldly, "He Jin wants Yuan Shao to be in the middle as a guarantor, and asks Dong Bingzhou to enter the king of Beijing together." In fact, it is to be unfavorable to Dong and Zhou! Humiliated by His Majesty's entrustment, leading Dong and Zhou soldiers and horses into Beijing, that's all that should be said. ”

"Dong Bingzhou believes it or not, it's all in one thought."

"But I still have to remind Dong Bingzhou that the fighter plane is fleeting."

Dong Zhuo slammed his feet and stepped on Chen Lin's feet hard, "Made, the old man hates to talk to you guys who have a hundred hearts and eyes. ”

"I stepped on a horse, and I didn't tell the truth."

"Come on, let Li Ru come to see me, send a scout horse out, and see if there are soldiers and horses around!"

"Whoa!"

Li Ru, who was still reading at night, soon rushed over.

After listening to Dong Zhuo's retelling, he quickly said: "Lord, this is a good opportunity!" ”

"The horses will be here soon, so there's no harm in waiting." Dong Zhuo said cautiously.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Li Ru looked down at Chen Lin, "There is something very curious about the humble position, how did Your Majesty take Master Chen's book for his own use?" ”

"I'm His Majesty's courtier, isn't Brother Li?" Chen Lin asked rhetorically.

Li Ru laughed, "I'm afraid that Master Chen is not His Majesty's person, but my lord's person!" ”

Chen Lin suddenly sighed with some regret, "This is not my intention, Your Majesty obeys the words of Zhang Rang, the regular servant of the Central People's Republic, and Zhang Rang thinks that if you don't break it, you can't stand it, and the only one who can break the general is Dong Bingzhou." ”

"Aren't all the servants dead?" Li Ru frowned fiercely.

"Zhang Rang is left and right, this person often serves the Queen Mother, and is also responsible for teaching His Majesty." Chen Lin said.

"Damn eunuchs!" Li Ru scolded.

Chen Lin nodded, "It's indeed a damn eunuch!" ”
