Chapter 581: Dong Zhao
"Title me as a hussar general, a false festival, and a position greater than the third duke?"
Ma Chao held the holy decree in his hand, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but show a smile: Fazheng's propaganda team is really doing a good job. All of a sudden, the whole of Luoyang was full of rumors that Cao Cao had ill intentions and wanted to stand on behalf of the Han Dynasty. And those rumors spread more and more, from the ethereal proverbs of the Mandate of Heaven at the beginning, to the words and sentences of Cao Cao and His Majesty, and finally they have all reached the point of 'the bloody rain in Luoyang City, and the Han is about to fall into the hands of the Cao family'.
Ma Chao really couldn't imagine that the propaganda team under Fa Zheng could have such magical powers. Just as he was about to praise Fa Zheng, he got a message from Diao Chan: The rumors spread by the Ma family in Luoyang were fueled by other princes.......
This news made Ma Chao both excited and a little gloating. Even when he had sex with Diao Chan at night, he had to let Diao Chan report the latest developments of Cao Cao and Liu Xie before he could fall asleep with a sly smile.
However, the rumors stop at the wise. In the end, the self-defeating ending was that Liu Xie took the initiative to ask to move the capital to Xuchang!
According to the news brought back by the shadow, after Cao Cao was slandered by rumors, on the one hand, he treated Liu Xie more and more humbly and respectfully, and on the other hand, he tried his best to dispatch those officials and officials under his command to compile the proverb of the Mandate of Heaven of 'moving the capital to Xuchang and the Han Dynasty will prosper' to confront the rumors in Luoyang.
However, the effect was very small, after all, Li Ru persuaded Dong Zhuo to move the capital to Chang'an, which made the Han family decline day by day. Under people's minds, Cao Cao's later proverbs are somewhat untenable. For this reason, Cao Cao often woke up in the middle of the night and sighed at the broken Luoyang.
At this time, Liu Xie took the initiative to talk to Cao Cao secretly for a night. Early in the morning of the second day, Liu Xie issued a holy decree in the side hall of Luoyang, the western capital Chang'an was ravaged by the Huns' iron hooves, and the eastern capital Luoyang was abandoned for a long time, and both could not be repaired; It is also difficult to transfer grain, Xuchang is close to Luyang, the city is close to Luyang, the money and grain and people's goods, enough to be spared, and it is decided to change Xuchang to Xudu and move east to Xudu.
Subsequently, he drafted a holy decree, saying that Ma Chao, the general of the auxiliary country, was loyal to protect the country, expelled the Huns, and made great contributions to Sheji, and promoted Ma Chao to be the general of the hussars.
Since then, the rumors of Luoyang have gradually traveled farther and farther away with the car of Emperor Liu Xie of the Han Dynasty, without a sound.......
At this time, Ma Chao casually threw the holy decree aside, and then focused on his approval. However, it is clear that after reading the decree, he wrote with much ease.
Jia Xu still squinted his eyes and stepped forward, seeing that Ma Chao's subordinates were on a list, and they were being smeared by Ma Chao, so he couldn't help asking, "Lord, what are you doing?" ”
"It's nothing," Ma Chao didn't raise his head, and replied: "Your Majesty is returning to Xudu, so naturally there must be a hundred officials and counselors." As a general of the Great Han Hussars, I naturally have the responsibility to select some loyal and capable ministers of the Han family for Your Majesty........"
Jia Fox is such a smart person, as soon as he heard Ma Chao's words, he knew what Ma Chao was thinking: After Chang'an was captured, Liu Xie did lead hundreds of officials to flee, but Liu Xie escaped alone halfway, leaving hundreds of officials in the court to be intercepted by Ma Chao, and escorted back to Chang'an by Huangfu Li, Zhao Yun, and Ma Dai. Now that Liu Xiedong has returned to Xudu, this Manchu Dynasty and hundreds of officials naturally have to accompany him to Xudu.
Of course, these are only superficial reasons. In fact, Jia Fox knew that the Ma family was a special group that was incompatible with the scholars, warriors, and royal families. Keeping those civil and military officials is not only useless to the Ma family, it consumes food, but also may bring resistance to the Ma family's governance and development. Therefore, Ma Chao wants to take this opportunity to throw those civil and military officials to Liu Xie, so that they will continue to talk and fight, so that Liu Xie will continue to have a headache.
On the other hand, although Ma Chao didn't know what kind of agreement Cao Cao and Liu Xie had reached, he knew that it was impossible for Liu Xie and Cao Cao to work together. And Liu Xie fell into the hands of Cao Cao alone, and he had no strength to compete with Cao Cao at all. As a result, Ma Chao threw those ministers who were loyal to the Han family to Xudu and gave Cao Cao a headache.
In the end, there are some Hanchen who do not respect the Han family, have no good impression of Cao Cao, and still have some ability. Ma Chao has to be selected carefully and left for his own use.......
Sure enough, Jia Xuxin picked up a piece of paper that Ma Chao had reviewed, and saw that most of the back of those lists were circled or crossed. After Jia Xu frowned slightly, he spoke: "Lord, the one who crosses this back is probably either a member of the Han family or a minister loyal to the Han family, right?" And the circle drawn in the back should be the mediocre minister of the corpse vegetarian meal, right? ”
"Not bad........" Ma Chao didn't have the slightest intention of paying attention to Jia Xu at this time, and after seeing him say a word, he muttered and continued: "The servant Han Rong, who is famous and famous, is also an imperial faction, fork!; Doctor Zuo Ling? There's nothing wrong with this guy in history, circle!; Too often Shi Liu Li? Han clan relatives, fork! Yang Qi in the service, the guy who escorted Liu Xiedong's return in history, fork!; Hu Miao, the one who was scolded by Huangfu Li? Well... It remains to be seen; Zhonglang will Yang Mi? I haven't heard of it, I guess it's a waste, and it's a circle! .......”
Jia Xu saw that Ma Chao was so engrossed in playing, and he couldn't hear what he was muttering. He didn't bother Ma Chao anymore, sat silently on the side, and closed his eyes. After a short time, Ma Chao finally stretched his waist, waved his hand to call a civil official, and ordered: "Transcribe the crossed on one piece of paper, and transcribe the circle on another piece of paper." The rest of the ones that are neither crossed nor circled, show them to me........ Hey? Old fox, you haven't left yet? ”
"Lord, Luoyang is occupied by Han Xian........ Jia Xu said lightly, as if he was talking about an extremely ordinary trivial matter. After hearing this, Ma Chao only frowned slightly, and said softly, indicating that he knew.
Then, Ma Chao scratched his head and picked up a pen and paper. After thinking about it, he called another civil official and said, "In my name, write a letter and tell Han Xian to get out of Luoyang." Otherwise, you do so at your own ........."
After hearing this, the civil official's face couldn't help but be bitter, but it seemed that he had received such a bloody task from Ma Chao, and after thinking for a while, he splashed ink on the next head.
"These officials who came up from the imperial examination really have a few brushes." Ma Chao opened his mouth, as if he was laughing, and said to Jia Xu: "How efficient is the military advisor looking at me?" ”
Jia Xu's face couldn't help but feel a little bitter, and he was deeply sad for these officials who served under Ma Chao. But for the sake of the Ma family's great cause, he still spoke: "Lord, although Han Xian's remnants will be defeated, it is not a worry, but it is just a letter, I am afraid it will ........."
"It's okay," Ma Chao waved his hand casually and said, "Winter hasn't passed yet, Han Xian is willing to stay there." If you see that letter, you can raise troops and surrender it. But if he dares to blow up the thorn for me, I will let him know that the shadows under the Ma family are not dry food. Wang Yue and Shi A, the two great swordsmen, joined forces, and they didn't believe that they couldn't take his head in the middle of the night........"
Jia Xu was taken aback, and immediately reacted: Sure enough, it was Ma Chao! This move knocks on the mountain and shocks the tiger, and it really shows the model of a hussar general! Jia Xu originally believed that the worst situation was to tolerate Han Xian for a while, and after the spring of next year, he could lead his troops to break Luoyang. But he never thought that he forgot that in Ma Chao's hands, there was an elusive shadow army.
To use the shadow to deal with Han Xian and other rogues, you only need to kill Han Xian, the leader, and the rest of the rabble will naturally lead to infighting and self-defeating.......
Seeing that Ma Chao is now at will, and they are all excellent political methods and tactics of war, Jia Xu can't help but think of one thing: If he is against Ma Chao at this time, how many possibilities can he win?
However, then Jia Xu shook his head, feeling that he was too worried. At this time, the previous civil official had already copied the list approved by Ma Chao, and Ma Chao smiled bitterly after reading it. After Jia Xu took it, he saw that there were only a few names on it. The top ones are: Huang Fu Song, Zhu Jun, Xu Rong, and Huang Fu Li........
However, the name of the last person made Jia Xu's eyes light up slightly: Dong Zhao, Dong Gongren.
