……………………………………………………………………

On December 28, the sixth year of Zhongping in the Han Dynasty, Li Yi, a hussar general, issued a statement to discuss Dong Zhuowen, which said that Dong Zhuotuo's name was Han Xiang, but he was actually a thief, deceived the young of the Son of Heaven, deceived the Holy Hearing, overcharged the world, and acted perversely, so that the people's resentment boiled and the world was in turmoil. I am the first emperor's lonely minister, I can't bear to see the Son of Heaven being deceived by Dong thieves, so I specially serve the edict of the first emperor to raise the teacher to crusade against Dong Zhuo and save the Son of Heaven from the clutches of the devil.

Li Yi sent an envoy to spread the word to the world, and asked the envoy to visit the officials of the prefectures and counties of the world with the edict of Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty.

As soon as Li Yi's essay came out, the world was shocked. Especially the princes who said before that they would depose the son of today and set up a new monarch, they felt the sweat behind them.

Li Yi did not mention the deposition of the current son in the text, and also took out the edict of the former emperor to prove the legitimacy of the status of the current son, and his support for the current son is very obvious.

Many people hurriedly changed their ways, issued articles in support of Li Yi, and never dared to mention the argument of deposing today's son.

Yuan Shao, who had just returned to Bohai County, naturally also received Li Yi's message, and he was so angry that he almost vomited blood on the spot. Nima, this Li Yi is too tricky, Nima, you have the edict of the first emperor, so take it out as soon as possible, so that we can justifiably crusade against Dong Zhuo. But after you waited for us to send a message, saying that you want to depose the Son of Heaven and re-establish King Hongnong, you came with me like this, what do you mean?

And after Dong Zhuo in Luoyang learned that Li Yi had issued a document and wanted to attack him, he was so angry that he beat and smashed it in his mansion and scolded Li Yi for cheating people. If Li Yi hadn't written to him. Support him to depose the young emperor, how dare he do this abolition? Now that the young emperor has been deposed, and Chen Liuwang is the son of heaven, and the bad things have been done by him Dong Zhuo, Li Yi immediately jumped out to pick peaches and wanted to crusade against him Dong Zhuo.

After smashing everything in the room, Dong Zhuo's anger still did not dissipate, and he yelled angrily: "Li Yi'er, dare to bully me like this!" ”

Dong Zhuo's strategists and generals trembled and did not dare to speak. Only his son-in-law Li Ru stubbornly said, "My lord." In fact, Li Yi's letter is not all bad. ”

Dong Zhuo was like a cat with its tail stepped on, and said loudly: "This is not a bad thing, so what is a bad thing?" ”

Li Ru said: "My lord, at least Li Yi's inscription does not mention the deposition of today's son, and it also proves the legitimacy of today's son with the edict of the first emperor. Therefore, no matter how others jump up and down, they at least dare not mention the dethronement again. And we don't have to fall for those people's plans to kill people with knives. Kill King Hongnong. ”

It turned out that after Qiao Mao's request for Dong Weiwen was sent, Luoyang exposed another thing: Shangshu Zhou Yu met King Hongnong privately and brought out King Hongnong's will. It is necessary to worship Yuan Shao as the general of the chariot and cavalry, participate in the affairs of Shangshu, take charge of state affairs, and preside over the crusade against Dong Zhuo.

And according to Dong Zhuo's secret agent's report. Before Zhou Yu met King Hongnong privately, he was summoned by Taifu Yuan Kui. At that time, Yuan Kui was so angry that he fell ill in bed because Huangfu Song gave up the command of the army and gave the command of the army under his command to Dong Zhuo.

Until then. Huaili City, where Huangfu Songtun soldiers supported the wind, is only 100 miles away from Chang'an City. As long as Huangfu Song raises troops, with Huangfu Song's prestige and ability to command troops, Chang'an can be down immediately, and Tongguan is also in the bag. Dong Zhuo lost Chang'an and Xiliang, and his retreat was exhausted, and he was immediately surrounded by the large army of various states and counties in Luoyang, leaving only the share of being slaughtered, and this was the key to convincing the hussar generals to deal with Dong Zhuo. Strength determines everything, Dong Zhuo has become a trapped beast in a cage, and the hussar general will naturally make the choice that is most conducive to the stability of the Han.

Immediately after this incident, there was news that King Hongnong wanted Yuan Shao to preside over the crusade against Dong Zhuo, and the conspiracy in it could be seen as long as he was not a fool.

However, although he knew that it was the enemy's plan to kill people with a knife, Dong Zhuo couldn't help but do what the enemy wanted him to do, that is, to kill King Hongnong and cut off the enemy's thoughts.

But in this way, he will inevitably offend Li Yi. You must know that the reason why Li Yi supported him to depose the young emperor was on the condition of protecting the lives of the widows and children of the first emperor.

Dong Zhuodu had already decided to send Li Ru to Hongnong County and poisoned King Hongnong with medicine and wine. But at this time, Li Yi took out the edict of the first emperor to prove the orthodox status of today's son.

In such a situation, all the schemes of the scholars have no basis, because when the son of today is the candidate for the Son of Heaven determined by the first emperor, he Dong Zhuo deposed the young emperor and established the son of today as the emperor, which is justifiable.

As for what Li Yi said about the crusade against Xingshi, Dong Zhuo was hehe. Because he had already received the news, Li Yi would not lead the army south at all, and all the generals under his command were left by him to guard the northern frontier, and only took 6,000 guards and iron cavalry south to the Central Plains.

From Li Yi's decision, Dong Zhuo has seen too many things. Li Yi didn't want to crusade against him at all, but helped him indirectly.

As long as he is still in power today, even if he Dong Zhuo is defeated, he will not have to worry about his life.

What's more, Dong Zhuo is confident that with the troops in his hands, he can defeat those rabble in the Kanto region. In this way, the crusade of those people is even more of a joke.

As for Li Yi leading 6,000 iron horsemen south, Dong Zhuo didn't care too much. This is just Li Yi's attitude on the surface, and he won't seriously fight him at all. Otherwise, it will not be 6,000 iron cavalry that will go south, but 60,000 or even 160,000 troops from the northern frontier.

After Dong Zhuo listened to Li Ru's analysis, a hanging heart suddenly relaxed. The attitude of the hussar general made him very happy. Now Hedong can garrison troops, while the Guanxi Emperor Fu Song has been deprived of military power, and the threat from the west and north of Luoyang has been lifted at the same time. In this way, he could concentrate all his energy on dealing with the attack from the east and south of Luoyang.

Dong Zhuo, who was in a better mood, asked Li Rudao: "Wenyou, you say, what should we do now?" Do you break each one before the rebellion forms a joint force, or do you stick to Gyeonggi and wait and see what happens? Or do we take the initiative to retreat to Chang'an and use the Kanto region as a game battlefield? ”

Li Ru rubbed his slender face and said a little tiredly: "The lord asked this, obviously he has made up his mind and is going to retreat to Chang'an." ”

Dong Zhuo smiled and nodded.

Tian Yi explained: "The lord plans to move His Majesty to Chang'an first while the hussar general is still planning how to solve the crisis in Luoyang and is unable to look south. As long as Your Majesty is in our hands, the authority is in our hands. In this way, we can grasp the initiative and be invincible first. ”

"It's just that we have a few tough issues that we can't solve at the moment. One is that the state and county refuse to pay taxes, and the national treasury is empty. Therefore, the imperial court was unable to support the food and salary of the 100,000-strong army. Secondly, there are many states and counties that have raised troops to rebel, and I estimate that their strength is probably more than 200,000, more than double ours. If there are still states and counties that join the rebellion one after another in the later period, the rebellious forces will be even more, and it will be very difficult for us to hold Luoyang. ”

"There is also a crisis in Luoyang, if the gate lords and ministers in the capital and the rebels should cooperate with each other, we will be in trouble. Now the rebellion is strong, it will be difficult for us to win in the short term, and the two sides will soon be at a stalemate. We do not have sufficient food to stalemate with the rebels for a long time, so there is only one way to retreat. ”

"We have hoarded a lot of money and grain in Chang'an, coupled with the stable foundation of Kansai and Guanzhong, even if the hussar generals and rebels join forces in the future, we will be able to protect ourselves. After His Majesty and the ministers took refuge in Chang'an, we held the Luoyang and Gyeonggi passes with part of our forces, and formed a confrontation with the rebellion. ”

"After a period of stalemate, the rebels have no hope of victory, and they will inevitably fall into an embarrassing situation. If you can't capture Luoyang and Chang'an, you will die if you retreat, and there will be no place to bury yourself, and there are many contradictions. ”

At this time, the lord can ask the Son of Heaven to grant amnesty to the world, and then send important ministers of the court to pacify the state and county officials who participated in the rebellion, divide and instigate them, quickly quell the rebellion, and strive to surrender the army without a fight. If we can't fight, we will resolutely not fight. ”

"The rebels are powerless to capture Luoyang and Chang'an, and we are powerless to go out to quell the rebellion, but the imperial court cannot afford to lose control of the prefectures and counties. The imperial court needs to pay taxes, but it needs a complete Han country, we can't let the rebels plot succeed, and we can't watch the rebels scourge the Han society without saving it. ”

"Who can save the Han Sheji, which is about to be overturned? In today's world, there are only hussar generals with 200,000 soldiers in their hands and dominating the northern frontier of the Han Dynasty. ”

"The hussar general has just finished an expedition, and for us, the role of deterrence is far greater than his own strength, but if the rebels really want to endanger the country's society, I believe that the hussar general would rather abandon the northern frontier than raise a large army to suppress the rebellion. The stability of Northern Xinjiang is based on the stability of the Han Sheji, and now that the Dahan Sheji is about to overturn, where is the stability of the Northern Xinjiang? ”

"Shuping said it well." Dong Zhuo said, "The hussar general categorically decided to take out the edict of the first emperor, which shows that he has already foreseen this crisis that is enough to destroy the Han Dynasty, and he is unwilling and unable to stay out of it. As soon as the edict of the first emperor appeared, it was tantamount to telling those rebellious that the hussar general supported the son of the day, and it was my Han Sheji who guarded it. ”

After Li Ru pondered for a long time, he said slowly: "The hussar general took out the edict of the first emperor, maybe there are other purposes, but there are too many rebellious states and counties in the Kanto region, and the momentum is not small, I am afraid that the development of things in the future will not be up to him." Today, the Han Dynasty has reached the critical moment of life and death, and protecting the safety of the society has become a major responsibility of the country. ”

Dong Zhuo clapped his hands and laughed: "Wenyou, you should yell this sentence at the ministers and officials three times in the court, and see if anyone blushes?" (To be continued.) )
