Volume 1 Immediately Crossing the Gun Chapter 9 The Wind and the Clouds Section 14
At the end of this month, the Xiliang Beidi County rushed to the imperial court, and the Xianbei and Dongqiang people took advantage of the autumn harvest to repeatedly invade both sides of the Yellow River, plundering people and livestock property, and imploring the Son of Heaven to send troops to help. ∮ Yan Moxuan ∮ no advertisements∮ and those delivered to Luoyang at the same time were also delivered by the former general Dong Zhuo and Jingzhao Yin Gaixun.
The former general Dong Zhuo played His Majesty, saying that the Xiliang rebels had been rampant recently, and it was not appropriate for the army to leave Hanyang, so he still asked the imperial court to send additional reinforcements to Beidi County to fight against the invasion of the Hu people.
Gai Xun said in the recital that at present, the grain and grass requisitioned from Yizhou and Jingzhou are all transferred from Wuguan to Chang'an, and then from Chang'an to Bingzhou, so the security and stability of Chang'an and the Sanfu land are very important, and it is directly related to the success of the war in northern Xinjiang. However, due to the protracted war in Northern Xinjiang and the recent ant thief riots in Qingxu and Xuzhou, the attention of the imperial court was attracted to those two battlefields, which made the Xiliang rebels stationed in Jincheng and Longxi think that it was profitable, and they were about to make a comeback. Gai Xun implored the Son of Heaven not to transfer the former general Dong Zhuo to the north at this time, but to recruit the northern army from the Beijing division to the west to Liangzhou.
The general He Jin asked His Majesty for the third time that he was willing to lead the army out of Beijing to resist the enemy.
The Son of Heaven said with a smile, now that the Xianbei people, the Huns, and the Dongqiang people are all facing each other in the area south of Yinshan and north of the Yellow River, and the army of the general Zhenbei is facing each other, how many invading Hu people will there be in Beidi County? The officials of these border counties were afraid of the Hu people, and when they saw the dust in the sky, they said that the Hu army was coming, and when they heard the neighing of war horses, they said that the Hu people had invaded, where were there so many Hu people? What is all the fuss about? Make a mountain out of a molehill.
"Order, let the former general Dong Zhuo send 10,000 horses to Beidi County to garrison, and if there are Hu people harassing them, drive them away."
Taiwei Ma Riyan, Sikong Ding Gong and Taifu Yang Biao advised His Majesty to be cautious, lest the Xiliang War recur and delay the Northern Xinjiang War. Then the recovery of the four northern counties is far away. The Son of Heaven said that once the Northern Army is dispatched, there will be no imperial garrison in Gyeonggi, and besides, once the Northern Army moves, the military resources are innumerable, and my Wanjintang cannot afford to pay it, and there is no money. The proposal was dismissed.
The great general He Jin returned to the general's mansion in fear. He Hao comforted, don't worry, the general, there will definitely be a chance. Although he had a smile on his face and said it confidently, he actually didn't have any bottom in his heart. He and Zhang Miao and others finally came up with such an idea, Yuan Kui and he mobilized almost all the forces of Guanzhong, Guanxi and Xiliang, and as a result, the Son of Heaven was sent away with a casual word. Did the Son of Heaven really want to risk the Luoyang Rebellion, and under the pretext of quelling the Qingxu Rebellion, General Zhenbei was requisitioned to lead the army south, waiting for an opportunity to solve the general and the northern army by force? Could it be that the Son of Heaven wants to give up the Northern Xinjiang War and establish the imperial system first? If the Son of Heaven wants to establish the imperial system first, it will disrupt the wishful thinking of the scholars to use the dispute over the imperial system to eradicate the eunuchs and relatives at the same time. The scholars considered that the power of the eunuch would be more uncontrollable in the future, and they would definitely not agree to the abolition of the Son of Heaven and the establishment of the throne, so that Luoyang would be in chaos. If the Son of Heaven kills scholars for the sake of the emperor, the consequences will be terrible when the rebellion of the Great Han Kingdom is raging everywhere.
He Hao was at a loss, and a group of ministers such as Yuan Kui, Ma Riyan and Lu Zhi were also at a loss. Will the Xiliang rebels raise troops to rebel again? This is the only opportunity for the Northern Army to go out of Beijing. He Hao even regretted very much that when he was ordered to appease the rebels of Xiliang that day, in order to quell those rumors that Luoyang was not conducive to the general, he turned his face with Wang Guohan Sui. If we hadn't turned the other cheek, we would still have a chance to save today's events, and we wouldn't be as helpless as we are now.
When the Son of Heaven returned to the imperial study, Xiao Huangmen Jian Shuo asked suspiciously, "Why didn't Your Majesty send the Northern Army out of the capital?" Once the opportunity is missed, there is no more. ”
The Son of Heaven looked at Jian Shuo, his face was full of worry, and he didn't speak for a long time. There is no doubt about his loyalty, but his intellect is truly disappointing. If Jian Shuo has half of Huangfu Song and Lu Zhi's skills, he can stay in the harem every day and live happily, and he doesn't have to do this to be close to himself, and he will be exhausted.
At the beginning, the Son of Heaven abandoned Zhao Zhong and Zhang to let these old lieutenants, in addition to the fact that these people were powerful and could do whatever they wanted, their personal power was intertwined and uncontrollable, and they had a deep enmity with scholars, but the main reason was that these people were old and confused, and their energy and intelligence had deteriorated. These people have been in the lust for power for a long time, and they have long been corrupted, and it is difficult to give themselves any help. What the Son of Heaven needs now is a lieutenant like Cao Teng in the past and Lu Qiang in the later who can be accepted by scholars. Only when such a lieutenant official is in control of the inner court, will the scholar temporarily give up his hatred for the lieutenant and will give up the killing of the lieutenant. As long as the inner and outer courts live in harmony, it is not a matter of course for Xiao Donghou to succeed to the emperor. The Son of Heaven observed for a long time, and finally selected Jian Shuo, who was both civil and military. He hopes that even if Jian Shuo can't have many celebrity protégés like Cao Teng, at least he will become the object that Celebrity and Confucianism are willing to accept like Lu Qiang, so that Jian Shuo can become a big help to himself after controlling the inner court and becoming his right-hand man.
But the truth made the Son of Heaven very disappointed. Jian Shuo was very rampant at the beginning, and it was not until his uncle was killed by Cao Cao, who was then the lieutenant of northern Luoyang, after breaking the law, that he relented. So far, although Jian Shuo has no notoriety, he has no commendable achievements, just mediocre materials. Because he was the confidant of the Son of Heaven and the most powerful eunuch in the new generation of officials, the officials of the inner and outer courts all respected him and easily did not associate with him. The old lieutenants and their protégés were on his guard, and were always on the lookout for him. The officials of the outer court classified him as a first-class eunuch, although there was no personal grudge, and Jian Shuo did not interfere in the government very badly, but he still hated him very much, and wanted to kill him quickly. He was the first eunuch that the scholars were determined to eradicate. Today's Jian Shuo has no prominent power, no support from the inner and outer courts, and no outstanding talent, but his loyalty is enough to make the Son of Heaven talk about masturbation.
The Son of Heaven thought that as long as Jian Shuo was loyal to him, he could give him power, and as long as Jian Shuo had power, even if he had no talent, he could still help himself. In comparison, the Son of Heaven would rather use a loyal mediocre talent than a two-faced genius.
The Son of Heaven shook his head and sighed softly. He patted Jian Shuo on the shoulder and said: "Even if the Northern Army is out of Beijing, it is still in He Jin's hands, and it is still a big hidden danger. At that time, I will give him 5,000 men, and he will be grateful. ”
Jian Shuo suddenly, he hesitated for a moment and asked, "Your Majesty, we still have the Xiyuan Army ...... in our hands"
"My purpose of forming the West Garden Army has been achieved." The Son of Heaven interrupted Jian Shuo's words and said with a smile, "Luoyang can't be chaotic, if Luoyang is chaotic, I won't be able to control the situation." Therefore, the purpose of forming the Xiyuan Army is to force the Northern Army to leave Beijing today. As long as the Northern Army leaves Beijing, the Xiyuan Army will have no value in existence. ”
"Your Majesty, how can we not have an army on our hands?"
"Aiqing, the Northern Army is gone, and the Xiyuan Army is still there, so the Xiyuan Army has become a hidden worry about the chaos in Luoyang. Luoyang could not have any army except for the Southern Army. Without an army, how can Luoyang be in chaos? The Son of Heaven said, "Aiqing, do you think I can control the Xiyuan Army?" ”
Qian Shuo's heart was shocked, and he looked at the Son of Heaven with a mocking face.
"Aiqing is loyal, and he will suffer in the future." The Son of Heaven said, "Who are the military horses, fake horses, military marquis, fake military marquis, and many tun chiefs in the Xiyuan Army?" Whose people are they? Who do the soldiers train with every day? Whose military orders do you listen to every day? How many of them know the captain of the West Park Army? ”
The Son of Heaven looked at Jian Shuo's clumsy expression, smiled slightly, and continued: "Once something happens, I'm afraid that the captain of the Xiyuan Army won't even be able to enter the barracks. Except for the soldiers of the Southern Army, we don't have an army that we can trust, Aiqing understands? ”
Jian Shuo nodded helplessly.
"After the Northern Army left Beijing, the Xiyuan Army was requisitioned and stationed in the Eight Passes of Gyeonggi, and the Eighth Captain of the Xiyuan Army was stationed in the Pass with the army.
Jian Shuo said worriedly: "Your Majesty, the Xiyuan sergeant has only been training for two months, and let them garrison the eight passes......"
The Son of Heaven smiled dumbly and said, "What is Aiqing worried about? I have more than 100,000 male soldiers from the general of Zhenbei, are you still afraid that the ant thieves will break through? If the soldiers of the Xiyuan Army are trained to be elite, I will not dare to let them garrison the eight passes of Gyeonggi. ”
"Your Majesty talked about General Zhenbei, and the minister remembered something. Recently, there have been rumors in Beijing that General Li took back Lu Longsai without much effort because of collusion with the Xianbei Murong Feng......" Jian Shuo cautiously looked at the face of the Son of Heaven and said, "Your Majesty, although this rumor is false, General Zhenbei has more than 100,000 male soldiers......"
"Aiqing is really a mediocre person. After the end of the Northern Xinjiang War, General Zhenbei naturally had to return to Beijing to take up his post. You see, is it better for General Li to be a guard lieutenant or a Guangluxun? The Son of Heaven smiled, "However, he is too young to be Jiuqing, so he should be a scholar by my side first, what do you think?" ”
Jian Shuo said in surprise: "Your Majesty, General Li has made outstanding achievements, let him be a scholar and shoot, it is inevitable to ......"
"The official is too young?" Tianzi smiled, "That's good." He has repeatedly disobeyed my holy decrees, and although I have not pursued them, I have them all in my heart. When he returns triumphantly, I will settle accounts with him. But then again, he'd better stay with me so as not to be killed. If he dies, who will fight the war of the Great Han Kingdom in the future? Are you going? ”
November of the fifth year of Zhongping in the Great Han Kingdom (188 AD).
At the beginning of this month, there was another rebellion in the Great Han Kingdom.
300,000 victims of the disaster in Yanzhou East County rioted, and they held high the banner of the Yellow Turban and attacked and killed in all directions. Then the displaced people on both sides of the Yellow River responded in droves, and the scale of the riots grew, gradually spreading to Wei County in Jizhou and Hanoi County in Gyeonggi. The Yellow Turban Army of Montenegro, under the leadership of Bai Huan, took the opportunity to go down the mountain to attack the city and conquer the prefecture and county. For a time, Gyeonggi was shocked and Luoyang panicked.
The leader of the Xiliang rebels, Wang Guo Han Sui Ma Teng, gathered 50,000 troops, together with 20,000 Xiqiang iron cavalry, and killed Hanyang. Dong Zhuo originally only had 20,000 horses, but at the end of last month, after receiving the holy decree of the Son of Heaven, he sent Niu Fu to take Li Dao, Guo Yan and Fan Chou, as well as 10,000 horses, to Beidi County. He only has 10,000 people in his hands, so he is naturally not the opponent of the Xiliang rebels. Dong Zhuo didn't fight anymore, and withdrew directly to Huaili with 10,000 horses, giving up Xiliang. He said to His Majesty that his army was too small, and it was better to guard Chang'an and protect the royal tombs.
The people of the government and the opposition were panicked, and the ministers were even more busy, urgently discussing countermeasures. Only the Son of Heaven didn't hear it, and every day he took a group of big and small officials, palace maids and concubines to drink and make trouble, and he was happy and happy, and he didn't even go to the court meeting.
It doesn't matter if the Son of Heaven doesn't go to the court. Shang Shutai, Sangong Mansion and Jiuqing ministers will handle state affairs, but if the Son of Heaven does not give money to quell the rebellion, it will be a big deal. Without money, how can you put down the rebellion? Taiwei Ma Riyan said: Isn't the preparations for the Northern Xinjiang War suspended? In such a situation, it is impossible to fight out of the fortress. No matter how stupid Your Majesty is, he will not be so confused. Simply, just use the money from the Great War in Northern Xinjiang. Dasi Nong Yuan Peng said with a sad face, His Majesty said that after the suspension of the Northern Xinjiang War, there was no more money sent to the Dasi Nong Mansion. The treasury is empty. Sikong Liu Hong said, what about the taxes paid by the states this year? Yuan Peng said that the taxes of the prefectures and counties far away from Luoyang have not yet been put into the treasury, and the taxes of the prefectures and counties near Luoyang have already been disbursed in advance, and several major tax states such as Jizhou and Yanzhou have been exempted from taxation because of the floods this year, so there is not a single money in the treasury now.
Taiwei Ma Riyan, Situ Ding Gong, and Sikong Liu Hong took the ministers of Jiuqing to meet the Son of Heaven. Xiao Huangmen Jian Shuo ran to the inner palace and begged for a long time, and finally ran out in frustration and said that the Son of Heaven was tired of playing with a few concubines and had slept. The minister was so angry that he vomited blood.
At this time, Li Hong, the general of Zhenbei, reported the victory. The Xianbei people evacuated Yuyang and Guangping, and the army marched all the way to successfully recover a large area south of Yanshan, and now the army has forced into Baitan City on the Xianbei border. Zhao Yun led the iron cavalry out of the pass from Lu Longsai and was attacking Liaoxi in the east. Jin Yang Zhonglang reported Xu Rong's victory, and Yan Rou, Yang Feng and Sheyingtong led the army to successfully recover all the territory north of Yanmen County, and the army is currently approaching Shanwucheng, the capital of Dingxiang County.
The Son of Heaven was very happy and went out of the palace to the court. He ordered to reward the soldiers who fought in the border counties of northern Xinjiang, and deliberately promoted Yushi to be the general of Zhonglang. In addition, considering the repeated rebellions in the country, the Son of Heaven ordered Li Hong not to lead the army into Liaodong in Liaoxi to quell the rebellion, but to lead the army back to Bingzhou as soon as possible, and as for the counterinsurgency in Liaoxi and Liaodong, the important task of counterinsurgency was handed over to Liu Yu, the pastor of Youzhou. At the same time, the Son of Heaven ordered Xu Rong to end the battle in Yanmen County, and immediately rushed to Hedong to gather troops and prepare to enter Liangzhou west to quell the rebellion.
Huangfu Song immediately advised the Son of Heaven, saying that the army of General Zhenbei had been exhausted from repeated battles, and it was better to garrison the northern frontier to deter the Hu people, lest the army leave, and the Xianbei and Xiongnu rebels would be ruined again. He thought that the Northern Army should be allowed to go to Xiliang to quell the rebellion. Raising troops for a thousand days, using soldiers for a while, at this time when the country is in danger, how can the northern army be at peace in Luoyang?
Ma Riyan also said that after the Northern Army went out, there were still 40,000 Xiyuan troops in Luoyang, and there was also the army of General Zhenbei north of the Yellow River. Your Majesty need not worry.
The general He Jin knelt down on the court for the fourth time and asked to lead his troops to serve the country. He Jin begged hard, burst into tears, kowtowed, and was bleeding even more after his forehead was broken, looking miserable, which was quite unbearable.
The Son of Heaven was greatly moved, hurriedly ran to He Jin's side and helped him up, and said in a loud voice: "Aiqing, why bother, I promise you, I promise you to go on the expedition." ”
The Son of Heaven faced the ministers and asked loudly: "Now that there is a rebellion between the kingdom and the Qiang people in Xiliang, and there is a rebellion of ant thieves in the two states of Ji and Yan, you Aiqing take a look, is the northern army going to the battlefield of Xiliang or to the two states of Ji and Yan?" ”
He Jin's heart sank, and he secretly complained. Huangfu Song and Lu Zhi also looked at each other, surprised and delighted. It was shocking that His Majesty actually took this opportunity to divide the Northern Army into two. In this way, His Majesty not only sent all the elites of the Northern Army out of the capital, but also greatly weakened He Jin's strength. He Jin's strength has plummeted, and even if the northern army is outside, it will no longer be able to pose a threat to Luoyang. The joy is that after the northern army is divided into two, the other army must be commanded. Looking at the court, how many ministers can lead the army to the expedition now? Huangfu Song, Zhu Jun or Lu Zhi, just talk about a few people. But no matter who led the army to go out, the strength of this half of the northern army was tightly grasped in the hands of the scholars. If the scholars have the Xiyuan Army in their hands and half of the Northern Army outside, the chances of waiting for the opportunity to eradicate the eunuchs and relatives will be greatly increased.
The court was very quiet at this moment, everyone was thinking about their own thoughts, and no one responded to His Majesty.
After the Son of Heaven slowly walked back to the desk, he closed his eyes and waited for someone to speak. He already knew what the result was, and he didn't want to talk nonsense anymore. He only wanted to know now when Li Hong would be able to return. As long as Li Hong returned to Bingzhou, he could convene his ministers to discuss the matter of the imperial system.
He Jin's heart was as cold as ice, but his body was sweating, and the hot pain on his forehead stimulated him to almost suffocate in pain. He gasped sharply, his mind was in a mess, and he couldn't even think. For the first time, he felt the power of imperial power, a power that could not be shaken. He suddenly knew how frightened and helpless the powerful general Dou Wu was when he faced a small volume of edicts from the Son of Heaven. The most powerful thing in the Great Han Kingdom is not the Son of Heaven in front of him, nor the great general himself, but the invisible and untouchable imperial power, the sacred and indestructible imperial power. He Jin smelled the blood, smelled the breath of death, and he seemed to see the Dou clan buried in the mass grave in Mangshan crying miserably.
Huangfu Song looked at He Jin from a distance, looked at the red blood on his face, looked at the despair in his eyes, and couldn't help but sigh.
Does the Son of Heaven plan to let He Jin go to Xiliang? Compared with the Xiliang battlefield, it is much easier to go to Hebei and Yan to kill the Yellow Turban ant thieves. The Han army and the Xiliang rebels fought for five years, except for Li Hong's two victories, the Han army never really defeated the rebels. In the battle of Yicheng that decided the situation in Xiliang, Li Hong also won in danger, he couldn't say anything about winning safely, but his luck was too good, otherwise Li Hong would have been defeated.
He Jin went to Xiliang, lost the battle, and would die, and the Son of Heaven didn't even want an excuse. If the battle is won, how much of his army will be left? Without the army, he died faster. If He Jin dies, the disaster of his relatives will be gone, which is good for the Han State, but He Jin died so early, what should I do if the disaster of eunuchs is gone? If you want to get rid of the ** eunuch, you can only use He Jin's power, and then let the Son of Heaven destroy He Jin.
He Jin is dead, and it is impossible to eradicate the ** eunuch by relying only on the strength of the scholars. The scholars once tried to drive the eunuch out of the court, but they all failed. The scholars do not have an army in their hands, which is the most important reason why the scholars cannot eradicate the eunuchs. The Northern Army is the Great General's, and the Southern Army and the Western Garden Army are controlled by the Son of Heaven and the ** Eunuch. Although the middle and lower-level officers of the Xiyuan Army are all protégés and disciples of the scholars, they only work at critical times or in some parts, no matter what, the soldiers of the Xiyuan Army will not rebel, let alone attack the palace.
Someone must stand up and take the initiative to lead the army to attack the Xiliang rebels, otherwise, when the Son of Heaven decrees the matter, it will be irreparable, but this move must go against the will of the Son of Heaven, and the outcome will ......
Huangfu Song resolutely stepped out, and in full view of everyone, in the surprise and stunned of the ministers, he played loudly: "Your Majesty, the ministers are willing to go to the west." ”
The Son of Heaven Huo Ran was frightened, he stood up suddenly, his expression was hideous, and the murderous aura and anger in his small eyes almost tore Huangfu Song to pieces.
Lu Zhi rushed out in one step and said loudly: "Your Majesty, Lord Huangfu is familiar with Xiliang and has been fighting for a long time, so he is indeed the best candidate. The Xiliang War is a matter of safety in Chang'an and the tombs of the royal family, once defeated, the consequences will be unimaginable, please think twice, please think twice......"
Taiwei Ma Riyan followed closely behind, and described the benefits of Huangfu Song's battle in Xiliang. Situ Ding Palace even moved out of Huangfu Song's past achievements, such as a number of treasures, and praised them to the fullest, as if as long as Huangfu Song went, the Xiliang rebels would disappear immediately. Subsequently, Yang Biao, Zhu Jun and other ministers also stood up to protect the emperor Fu Song and went to Xiliang.
The expression of the Son of Heaven gradually calmed down. His face was like frost, and he said coldly: "Move Emperor Fu Song to the left general, and lead 20,000 northern troops to immediately go west to Liangzhou to quell the rebellion." Former general Dong Zhuo returned to his moderation. ”
"General He Jin led 10,000 northern troops to cross the Yellow River in northern Beijing, first leveling the ant thieves in Hanoi, and then leveling the yellow turbans in Hebei and Yanzhou."
"Dong Zhong, the commander of the guard, was a hussar general and commanded the Xiyuan Army to garrison the eight passes of Gyeonggi. Moved the five officials and Zhonglang to make Liu He the captain. The Son of Heaven looked at Huangfu Song who was kneeling on the ground, and snorted very dissatisfied, "After General Huangfu left Shangshutai, Lord Shangshu Lu was reappointed as Shangshuling, and Lang Zhoubi, Doctor Zhang Zhi, and Taizhong Doctor Kong Ling were added to Shangshu. ”
The Son of Heaven returned to the imperial study angrily and scolded Huangfu Song fiercely in front of Jian Shuo.
Jian Shuo whispered: "Your Majesty, the Xiliang battlefield is indeed very important, and the minister also thinks that it is most appropriate for General Huangfu to lead the army to quell the rebellion, why does Your Majesty ......?"
"You know what?" The Son of Heaven blushed, pointed at Jian Shuo's nose and scolded, "Why did I continue to urge the leopard to return to the state? Isn't it just a precaution? From Hedong to Chang'an, the iron ride is only a few days away, where is the turn to get the rampant rebels? This Huangfu Song, taking national affairs as a child's play, is so angry that he ......"
Jian Shuo looked at the Son of Heaven in surprise, and muttered in disbelief: "How did Your Majesty know that the Xiliang rebels were going to attack Chang'an?" ”
The Son of Heaven glared at him viciously, shook his head angrily and said, "Aiqing, you have been following me for many years, why are you so brainless?" In October, the grain is ripe, the grain is in storage, especially in the area of Sanfu in Chang'an, in order to raise grain and grass for the war in northern Xinjiang, the grain is piled up like a mountain, and the Xiliang rebels have no food or drink, and now it happens that the ant thieves in Yanqing and Xu Sizhou have exploded again, and the war in northern Xinjiang is still continuing. Do you have to wait until it snows? He patted Jian Shuo's head and sighed, "Aiqing, you stay in the palace, you must use your brains, otherwise you will die a miserable death." ”
Jian Shuo's face was full of shame, and he bowed his head and said nothing. He thought to himself, as long as I follow you faithfully, as long as you don't kill me, who else can kill me?
The Son of Heaven was still angry here, and the Minister of the Three Princes there, Jiuqing Monk Shangshu Ling Lu Zhi hurried over again. Before the court discussion was over, and the most important things had not yet been played, the Son of Heaven brushed his sleeves away, and the ministers had to follow all the way.
Taiwei Ma Riyan said, Your Majesty, you need money to quell the rebellion, can Your Majesty borrow another 5 billion yuan on credit from Wanjintang to cope with the current difficulties? The Son of Heaven ignored him, and smashed a book on the desk, and the anger in his heart was difficult to quell. Such a good opportunity was sabotaged for Huangfu Song and these hateful ministers.
All along, he has been careful and cautious, lest something make a mistake and mess up the government and society. The imperial unification is to be established, and the great unification is to be inherited by the little Dong Hou, but he wants to leave the little Dong Hou a strong and rich Han state, not a decaying and crumbling Han state. In today's situation, the best way to let Xiao Donghou succeed to the imperial throne is to solve all the obstacles very safely and smoothly, instead of making Luoyang bloody and bloody, and the corpses are everywhere, but today's best opportunity to solve the great general He Jin was lost.
The Son of Heaven could use his supreme power to forcibly order the general He Jin to go west to Liangzhou, and the reason why he did not directly appoint it in the court was to see the reaction of the ministers, and to know what the attitude of the scholars towards him was abolished at this point today. He had no way of knowing what the scholars really thought, so he had to take advantage of this easiest and most effective method, but the result was much to his disappointment. The scholars resolutely stood on the position of defending the great general He Jin, in other words, no one agreed to the abolition of the Son of Heaven, and the scholars were deceiving the Son of Heaven from beginning to end, including the Ma Riyan who had sworn to him.
Sikong Liu Hong knelt down again and implored His Majesty to fund the suppression of the rebellion. Liu Hong is a member of the clan, the Son of Heaven's own family, the Son of Heaven is not good at not giving face, so he had to reluctantly reply: "Cui Jun went to Qingzhou, Kong Rong went to Beihai, Tao Qian went to Xuzhou, didn't they all bring a soldier or a money, they can fight ant thieves, why can't He Jin and Huangfu Song fight?" I don't care about these things, you go to the Great Si Nong's Mansion. ”
Dasi Nong Yuan Pan hurriedly knelt down and said angrily: "Your Majesty, the minister is here, and the minister has nothing but this body." ”
The Son of Heaven glared at him, picked up the bamboo slip and smashed it in the east and west, in order to vent the extreme dissatisfaction in his heart.
The three princes and nine ministers were helpless, so they had to do their best to persuade Your Majesty. The ministers said that this was only a temporary loan, and it was not a non-repayment, so why would Your Majesty not want to? The counterinsurgency is for the sake of the Jiangshan Sheji of the Han Kingdom, and this Jiangshan Sheji is Your Majesty's, why can't Your Majesty be considerate?
It was getting dark, and the ministers were so dry that their voices were hoarse.
The Son of Heaven suddenly said: "Each of you has a plan for me, and you know what the content is, so I won't say anything." I fulfilled my wish, and I promised that you would go to Wanjintang to get as much military resources as you needed to quell the rebellion. If I can't fulfill my wish......" The Son of Heaven sneered, "Without military resources, the Northern Army would be wiped out on the battlefield at most, but the Northern Army is gone, and I still have the hundreds of thousands of troops of General Zhenbei, and my country is still impregnable." See for yourselves. ”
The Son of Heaven shook his hand and left. Ma Riyan and others were stupid.
This policy is handed over, and it will be justified if the Son of Heaven wants to abolish his heir. There are many Shangshu of the Three Princes and Jiuqing Monk Shutai gathered here, and basically the main ministers of the inner court of the Han Dynasty are here. If everyone agrees, what is the obstacle to the abolition of the Son of Heaven? In the future, if these ministers repent, the Son of Heaven will not only be able to cut off their heads for the crime of deceitful kings, but he will also be able to spread their advice throughout the world, causing them to be ruined. If you die, you will die in vain, no one will sympathize with you, and you will be infamous for all eternity.
If you don't write it, you don't agree with the abolition of the Son of Heaven, although the Son of Heaven will not embarrass them, but the money of this Wanjintang will not be available. The counterinsurgency of the Northern Army has not been found, and the Northern Army will be defeated sooner or later on the battlefield, and the general will still die, and the outcome will be the same. As the Son of Heaven said, it is not a big deal that the ant thieves cannot be pacified for the time being, and now the war in Northern Xinjiang has stopped one after another because of the civil strife in Xianbei, and General Zhenbei will soon be able to return to Bingzhou. As long as General Zhenbei leads the army south, how many ant thieves can't be killed?
The general He Jin died, the northern army was gone, and the main opponents who hindered the abolition of the Son of Heaven were gone. What is the Son of Heaven going to do next? Of course, he used General Zhenbei's hundreds of thousands of troops to threaten the ministers. As for the 40,000 Xiyuan Army with no combat effectiveness, it is simply an ornament and useless. In order to eradicate the hidden danger of General Zhenbei, the future Great Han State, the ministers had to work closely with the Son of Heaven, first establish the imperial unity, stabilize Luoyang, and then transfer General Zhenbei's army back to Northern Xinjiang to fight the Northern War to recover the border counties. By the time the Northern Xinjiang War was over, General Zhenbei would not have many troops. At that time, the Son of Heaven could clean up as much as General Zhenbei wanted. He is already in charge of everything.
The ministers suddenly discovered that it was the Wanjintang of the Son of Heaven who dominated the fate of the Great Han Kingdom, and it was the Wanjintang that was hated and reviled by the people of the world.
The Son of Heaven rules the Ten Thousand Golden Hall, and the Ten Thousand Golden Hall of the Son of Heaven rules the world.
Jian Shuo commanded more than a dozen small eunuchs to move the case, pen and ink silk silk, and after placing them one by one, Jian Shuo bowed and invited the ministers to take a seat.
The ministers whispered in groups for a while, and then sat listlessly behind their desks. No one put pen to paper, everyone was looking down in contemplation. Only Jian Shuo quickly wrote the plan paper, wrapped it in a soap sac, and then put it on the desk of the Son of Heaven. He did not urge the ministers, but sat alone under the candlelight to mark the papers.
Sikong Liu Hong, Taichang Liu Ting, Weiwei Liu He, Guangluxun Liu Bo successively worked hard to write and handed in the papers.
Lu Zhi couldn't put pen to paper. If your majesty's request is agreed, what are the consequences? With the guarantee of military resources for the Northern Army, will the general not die? That's impossible. Great generals, chariot generals, empresses, and even the great prince are all in danger of being completely eliminated. Although it is possible for them to be temporarily spared and moved to their own fiefdoms, they will all die sooner or later. Is there a way to save it now? Because the eunuch that the scholars want to eradicate the most is still there, and it is becoming more and more powerful, which they cannot tolerate.
Ma Riyan, Ding Gong, Yang Biao, and the ministers are all meditating. How did this turn out to be the case? Completely uncontrollably turned into this? Rebellion, because of the continuous rebellion. But why the rebellion? Because there are disaster victims, millions of disaster victims. Why are there victims? Because of a major flood this year. The Yellow River burst its banks, and the seven counties were affected, which actually changed the fate of the Han Kingdom, which was really an incredible flood.
When will the Son of Heaven kill the Great General? When will the crown prince be canonized and the edict will be issued to the world? It was supposed to be when the rebellion ended. If the rebellion continues until next spring, the life of the great general will end next spring. If the rebellion is put down before the heavy snow comes, it will be difficult for the general to see next spring. But will the Son of Heaven recruit the general of Zhenbei to go south? In order to ensure the smooth operation of the canonization of the emperor and the stability of Luoyang, the Son of Heaven is very likely to recruit the general Zhenbei to lead the iron cavalry south to Jizhou to capture and kill the general. Although the general only has 10,000 people, once he launches a mutiny, his harm will not be less than that of a million ant thieves.
Only by saving the life of the general, and only by letting the general return to Luoyang, it is possible to launch a mutiny to eradicate the eunuchs. Who can predict next year? Maybe the battle for the throne will change next year? Now, saving the general's life is the top priority. As long as the general's army is used to eradicate the ** eunuch, what if we promise the Son of Heaven to abolish the heir? After the eradication of the ** castration, the Great General will not exist.
Lu Zhi picked up the pen and wrote at the desk. Ma Riyan, Ding Gong and other ministers followed, leaving rows of black handwriting on the snow-white silk silk like flowing water.
The Northern Army and the Xiyuan Army went out of Beijing at the same time, and in order to boost morale, the Son of Heaven held a grand military parade under Ping Optimism.
The Han army built a large altar in Lepingguan, on which a twelve-layer canopy was erected, as high as ten zhang. A small altar was built in the northeast of the big altar, and a nine-layer canopy was erected, which was nine zhang high. On that day, 70,000 infantry cavalry lined up and set up camp. The Son of Heaven put on armor, rode on an iron-armored war horse, and under the escort of the great general He Jin and the hussar general Dong Chong, he circled the army three times. Then the Son of Heaven stood under the big canopy, and the general He Jin stood under the small canopy, watching the majestic posture of the huge army array composed of 70,000 soldiers walking by.
"The Great Han ......"
"Hooray......
70,000 soldiers shouted in unison, the sound was like thunder, and the momentum was magnificent.
