Although Cai Yong is a famous Confucian of the scholar clan, marrying him can also win some false fame, and it will also help the young master's foundation in the future. However, this is not the time. ”

Ma Chao listened to Jia Xu's explanation quietly, and also knew that Jia Xu had already known the influence of the power of the late Han Dynasty. But when he says this now, does he mean that the Ma family's forces are too weak and haven't yet considered these things?

Now the Xiliang Ma family is under the management of Ma Chao, and there are currently three counties of Fufeng, Xinping, and Beidi, and they are friendly with the Dongqiang tribe. But Jia Xu actually said that the Ma family had not yet reached that time, obviously because the Ma family's power was not enough to enter the scope of the scholars' vision.

"The daughter of Han Sui, although she is not a big lord of the scholar clan, Han Sui is the leader of the Tieqiang Alliance, and Liangzhou is also the head of Han Sui. If the young master can marry Han Sui's daughter and marry Han Sui, he can control Yongliang Erzhou in the shortest possible time, and from then on he will have the capital to dominate the world! ”

Jia Xu said these words lightly, and there were inevitably ups and downs in his heart. Not only picked up the teacup, but also took a sip of tea.

"Why, why do you want to let someone control the two states of Yongliang in the shortest possible time?" Ma Chao's heart froze, and vaguely, he seemed to understand Jia Xu's intentions.

"Because, soon, Chang'an will be in chaos, and if the Ma family has no power to protect itself, it will become a sad victim!" Jia Xu took another sip of tea, and after calming down his emotions, he gradually said: "Dong Zhuo's attempt to manipulate the entire court with the will of the martial arts is really ridiculous. In the early stage, he cooperated with the scholars, which was quite powerful. But now that Dong Zhuo is short-sighted and has lost his heart to dominate the world, it will not be too late for him to perish. ”

Ma Chao looked shocked: Sure enough, Jia Xu saw through the outcome of Dong Zhuo's demise, so he desperately hoped that the Ma family would have the strength to resist Dong Zhuo's tiger and wolf men.

This old fox is not simple.

It was only because he predicted the historical trend that he learned that Dong Zhuo would be deceived by Wang Yun into going to the palace to receive Zen one day in the second year, and then asked the 'godfather killer' Lu Bu to paint a halberd for Fang Tian and gave him his life. But Jia Xu only expected Dong Zhuo's mentality to change, and predicted that Dong Zhuo would die and be destroyed, which was really unbelievable.

In order to test whether Jia Xu was really clever, Ma Chao deliberately asked: "The Dong Alliance has been dissolved, and the Kwantung princes are fighting each other. And Sun Jian, the only famous general to fight against Dong, also attacked Yuzhou with Yuan Shu, and had no intention of crusading against Dong Zhuo. In this way, Dong Zhuo should sit back and relax, how can he say that he will perish? ”

Jia Xu looked at Ma Chao fixedly, there was an indescribable meaning in his eyes, and Ma Chao also looked a little worried, and finally spread his hands helplessly and said: "Okay, I also think that Dong Zhuo is like a grasshopper after the autumn, but I don't know, why did Mr. Jia conclude that Dong Zhuo will die?" ”

"Hmph, how can the disaster of Xiao Wall be like an embankment?" Jia Xu retracted his gaze, but he still looked a little unwilling, and after seeing that Ma Chao didn't explain at all, he continued: "The burning of Luoyang not only burned the last hope of the Shi clan, but also burned Dong Zhuo's qi!" ”

Ma Chao knew that what Jia Xu said about this was the atrocity committed by Dong Zhuo when he moved the capital a few days ago, before Sun Jian fell.

The situation of Dong Zhuo's relocation of the capital to Chang'an and the burning of Luoyang in history is: the car moved westward, Dong Zhuo collected all the rich rooms, punished them for their crimes, confiscated their property, and the dead were incalculable; Millions of people were driven to Chang'an, riding on foot, and even more borrowing from each other, starving and plundering, and accumulating corpses. Zhuo Ziliu Tun Bigui Garden, Xi burned the palace temple, the official house, the home, within 200 miles, the room was wiped out, and there was no chicken dog. He also made Lu Bufa the tombs of the emperors and the ministers to collect their treasures.

Burn Luoyang and turn Luoyang into ruins. For Dong Zhuo, it may be that Dong Zhuo feels that he would rather not be able to hold Luoyang than leave it to the Kanto heroes, but judging from the strength of the Kanto heroes, they can't beat Dong Zhuo, so naturally they can't capture Luoyang. Dong Zhuo did this, not only carrying the charge of brutality, but also not doing himself any good.

Moreover, after the eunuchs were executed, the "rich room" in Luoyang, the capital division, should be mostly the home of scholars, and Dong Zhuo's killing of the "rich room" was actually a fundamental blow to the scholars in the imperial court; Regardless of the lives of the people, moving the people of Luoyang to Chang'an is the foundation for completely cutting off the rebellion of the sergeants of the DPRK; This was one of Dong Zhuo's retaliatory measures against the Shiren group.

And Dong Zhuo's approach was not enough to show his attitude of breaking with the scholar group, and he also killed Yuan Shao's uncle Yuan Kui, the servant Yuan Ji and his family to retaliate against Yuan Shao's army.

As a result, all Dong Zhuo's early efforts came to naught. The original trend of the clanization of martial artists suddenly became the practice of martial artists Qianghu, which made the people of the scholar clan hate Dong Zhuo to the core.

After a person is deceived, it is easy to go to the opposite side, especially for Dong Zhuo, who has been affected by the idea of "the law of the jungle" at the border for a long time. His transformation was because he found that he had fallen into the hands of scholars, and those scholars regarded their hearts as wolf hearts and dog lungs!

Dong Zhuo as a local warrior specializing in court politics, in the history of the Eastern Han Dynasty is an unprecedented thing, in the early stage of Dong Zhuo is also walking on thin ice, although he has a strong army, but still to the scholars in every way to curry favor, like the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty to the scholars of the "party disaster", the use of scholars as important ministers of the court and other measures are all a manifestation of compromise with the scholars.

But the scholars did not buy his account at all, they could not accept the reality of the dictatorship of the warriors, so they launched a series of struggles against Dong Zhuo's dictatorship of the warriors, and the group of soldiers planned by Yuan Shao to rise up against Dong Zhuo was one of the sharp manifestations.

Later, Dong Zhuo, who found out that he had been deceived, decided to destroy the foundation of the court scholars against him, and at the same time retaliated against the court scholars for colluding with foreign soldiers to oppose his rule. What he did was not so much brutal and mentally retarded as incompetent.

The reason why scholars are stronger than warriors is not that the power of scholars is stronger than that of warriors. Rather, it is because the scholars have a firm political ideology and the determination to constantly fight for it. Internally, scholars have a continuous temperament and mind; Outwardly speaking, the scholars have intricate relationships and the armed forces that they have gradually mastered.

And Dong Zhuo's downfall obviously did not die in the armed uprising. And the disaster of Xiao Wall, which Jia Xu judged, meant that Dong Zhuo might die from the conspiracy of the scholars within the Chang'an court.

Dong Zhuo rejected the political ideas of all scholars, and this practice not only did not stop the scholars' revenge on Dong Zhuo, but fell into more intense contradictions. It's just that this contradiction is hidden under the calm.

Thinking about this, Ma Chao has completely understood what Jia Xu meant. And Jia Xu combined his own analysis and speculation to arrange the future direction for Ma Chao. even took Ma Chao's marriage as the fastest means of development......

"Good fortune, old fox, you are not my enemy, and if you do, I will surely die at your hands." Ma Chao sighed, and was completely convinced of Jia Xu's talent: "However, even so, you don't have to marry Han Ying, right?" Do you know that Han Sui and the Ma family are currently enemies of life and death. ”

"An enemy of life and death? Hmph, everything in the world, all things must be 'profit' first, Han Sui is such a scheming person, how can he still be the enemy of the Ma family at this time? Jia Xu squinted his eyes, and even said with some amusement: "If a certain guess is right, Han Sui may have prepared a dowry when he came this time!" ”

"Wouldn't it? Can Han Sui do this? Ma Chao was beating a drum in his heart, but at the same time, he also knew that what he said from Jia Xu's mouth was much more accurate than the weather forecast on CCTV......
