Chapter 0548 - No River Crossing

Since Wang Yun took charge of the country, he quickly stabilized Sanfu through the protΓ©gΓ©s of the former officials he arranged to serve in various counties and counties in his early years, and invited the Son of Heaven to vigorously promote and reward a group of his cronies.

Among them, Xu Rong was worshiped as General Fenwei, and he was affiliated with Shangshushi, Fake Festival, Yibi Three Divisions, and entered the Marquis of Xiangping, and his weight was for a while. Li Su was worshiped by the tiger Ben Zhonglang general.

As for the ministers such as Shisun Rui, Yang Zhan, and Huangfu Song, Wang Yun only asked the Son of Heaven to reward them, but did not promote them to their official positions. In fact, these people are all in high positions, and Shisun Rui is still Shang Shuling, even if they are promoted, they are limited.

Wang Yun may have thought that killing Dong Zhuo and eradicating the traitors was something that ministers should do, and there was nothing worth showing off. Some ministers may also think the same way, such as Shi Sun Rui, who once asked the Son of Heaven to resign after Dong Zhuo's death.

But not all the ministers who participated in the killing of Dong Zhuo thought so. Wang Yun favored one over the other, and was unsympathetic to many meritorious ministers, and his approach was resented by many people in the government and the opposition.

Xu Rong kindly reminded Wang Yun for this. Xu Rong said: "The imperial court confiscated more than 30,000 catties of gold, more than 90,000 catties of silver, silk silk, and rare treasures from Hewu, and the imperial court should take out a part of it and reward it to the meritorious officials." ”

Wang Yun smiled bitterly: "The Han Dynasty has declined to this point, how much money do we need to revive the society?" If Xiliang's rebellion is put down, and the Son of Heaven and the imperial court are still in Luoyang, how much money will we need to complete the relocation? Yellow turban ant thieves are rampant in the Central Plains, how much military resources will we need in the future to completely quell the rebellion? ”

"Since Dong Zhuo's rebellion, the counties of the world have been full of smoke and displaced people, how much money do we need to help the displaced people in the future and send them back to their hometowns? The court does not have too much money, but there is no money at all, but there is a serious shortage of money. If the money and food confiscated from Hewu can be supported until the Son of Heaven returns to Luoyang, I will be grateful and thank God. ”

"The Han Dynasty has withered to this point, don't our subjects have a little heart to serve the country loyally? Don't have a little bit of a revival of the community? If there is no big man, where is the home? Where did the life come from? Where does the glory and wealth come from? The Han is overturned, even if you have mountains of gold and silver at home, it will be fleeting. ”

Xu Rong was ashamed and bowed his head speechlessly.

Xu Rong was able to ascend to the sky in one step, and he could be worshiped by General Fenwei and participate in Shangshu affairs, all because Wang Yun wanted to exclude Huangfu Song from his authority. Wang Yun believed that he could completely control Xu Rong at present, and Xu Rong also had enough military talent to defend Chang'an. When he weakened Huangfu Song's power to the extreme, weakened to the point that he no longer posed any threat to the imperial court, Xu Rong's role would be gone.

Wang Yun's approach is a bit of a cross the river and tear down the bridge, and many ministers have very opinions about him, and they are even more dissatisfied with his domineering and domineering in court politics. But Wang Yun turned a blind eye, and a person firmly held the authority, doing whatever he wanted, doing whatever he wanted, and the means of excluding dissidents became more and more intense.

Although Xu Rong also participates in Shangshu affairs, he is not familiar with national politics, and he listens to Wang Yun in everything, which is purely an ornament.

Of course, Xu Rong also knew that Wang Yun's real purpose in letting him participate in Shangshu was to monopolize power, so he was very conscious, and he wholeheartedly recruited troops, trained soldiers and horses, and rarely cared about political affairs.

The Son of Heaven was very afraid of what happened in Chang'an, and he was also afraid of Wang Yun, no matter what Wang Yun said, he nodded vigorously.

Wang Yun disagreed with Huangfu Song's proposal to appease him, and asked Xu Rong to immediately gather the county soldiers of Fufeng and Feng Yi counties and rush to Huayin City to defeat the rebels.

However, at this time, an astonishing news came from Linjin City in the direction of Luoshui, that Yue Fei and Chang Yuchun were leading the Northern Xinjiang Army to cross the Yellow River and enter Guanzhong.

………………

After Yue Fei returned to the camp, he immediately wrote three letters.

A letter was sent to the eldest princess and the Jinyang court, detailing the killing of Dong Zhuo. Now the Chang'an Imperial Court is jointly attended by Situ Wang Yun and Fenwei General Xu Rong to assist the Son of Heaven. Today, the Chang'an Imperial Court insists on refusing to pardon Dong Zhuo's old department, and Dong Zhuo's old department has the heart to serve the country, but there is no way out. Niu Fu, Li Dao and other Xiliang generals begged the imperial court to pardon their crimes and led their troops to the northern frontier. Yue Fei asked the eldest princess and the Jinyang court to give him a clear answer immediately.

A letter was sent to Jizhou to Li Yi in the form of a flying pigeon. Now that the situation in Guanzhong has changed drastically, what countermeasures will the Quanzhou Imperial Court and Northern Xinjiang take? Is it to immediately enter the customs to protect the Son of Heaven?

A letter was urgently sent to Zhu Jun in Luoyang. The situation has changed abruptly, and there has been a major turning point in the social crisis, and at this time, Kanto cannot afford to lose, and Luoyang cannot afford to lose.

On the third day, Zhu Jun Pegasus rushed to the camp in Shaancheng. He was very excited, and carefully discussed with Yue Fei about guarding the Eight Passes. He looked forward to the return of the Son of Heaven to Beijing and was full of confidence that Sheji was about to move towards stability.

On the fourth day, the Quanzhou Divine Decree arrived. The eldest princess and the imperial court asked Yue Fei to immediately go north to the east of the river, cross the river from the direction of Pubanjin into Guanzhong, and rush to Chang'an as quickly as possible to protect the Son of Heaven. For the time being, Zhu Jun, the general of the cavalry, was in charge of the affairs of Kansai.

As for whether to appease Dong Zhuo's old department, the eldest princess and the Quanzhou court believed that under the current situation, it would be better to follow the opinions of the Chang'an court. In other words, they vetoed Yue Fei's proposal to appease him.

In late April, Wang Rou sent back the news of Dong Zhuo's murder from Chang'an. The eldest princess was overjoyed and asked the Northern Xinjiang Army to immediately rush to protect the Son of Heaven. After careful discussion, Zhang Wen, Lu Zhi and other ministers had to change the original revitalization policy of the imperial court, and instead first protect the Son of Heaven and stabilize the society.

Since the hussar general Li Yi still needed to consult on this strategy, the order for Yue Fei to enter the military pass was temporarily shelved.

However, Yue Fei's letter was then sent to Quanzhou.

Considering the threat to Chang'an from the tens of thousands of troops of Niu Fu and other Xiliang generals, Zhang Wen and other ministers categorically decided not to wait for Li Yi's reply, but to let Yue Fei lead the army to cross the river quickly.

Considering the safety of Kwantung and Luoyang, the imperial court did not order Zhu Jun to lead an army to attack Niufu, but ordered Zhu Jun to put the main forces in Kwantung.

After Yue Fei received the holy decree, he did not dare to delay, crossed the Yellow River with his personal guards, and galloped overnight to meet the camp of Pubanjin and Chang Yuchun.

Yue flew to Kasakatsu and immediately gave the order to cross the river. Duan Xuan and Bao Hong's army, which was originally stationed on the other side of Pubanjin, are now fighting fiercely with Niu Fu under Tongguan, and that big camp is actually an empty camp. The officers and men of the Northern Xinjiang Army crossed the river safely without much effort.

Chang Yuchun led 5,000 soldiers of the forward battalion and rushed to the city of Linjin.

Wang Yun was shocked and immediately ordered Xu Rong to rush to Luoshui River (now Luohe, Shaanxi) with the county soldiers of Fufeng County to block the Northern Xinjiang Army.

Wang Yun believed that if the Northern Xinjiang Army was allowed to enter Chang'an, the Son of Heaven and the imperial court would inevitably be controlled by Li Yi. Wang Yun and the ministers of the court did not trust Li Yi, and a large part of the reason why the Han Dynasty was overturned today was caused by Li Yi's inaction, and some ministers even thought that Li Yi had the intention of usurping rebellion as early as after the death of the first emperor, and this person was more bloody and cruel than Dong Zhuo.

Xu Rong took the holy decree of the Son of Heaven and ran all the way along the Yushui River.

Feng Yijun Taishou Song Yi led the county soldiers to the east and blocked Chang Yuchun near Xiatai County. At this time, as long as the Northern Xinjiang Army crossed the Weishui River, it was only two hundred miles away from Chang'an City.

When Yue Fei saw Xu Rong, his expression was very cold.

Dong Zhuo's death had an indescribable sadness and sympathy for Yue Fei, and he had a feeling of sadness for the death of a rabbit and a fox.

Especially Li Dao's words, which stimulated him very much. If Li Yi is killed like Dong Zhuo in the future, he will immediately be as dead as Tian Yi and Li Dao. No matter how outstanding his past exploits were, it was a dead end. On the contrary, people like Xu Rong will soon go from being penniless ordinary officials to being prominent ministers.

Dong Zhuo's accumulated exploits for more than 40 years were turned into powder under Xu Rong's sword, and at the same time, Xu Rong's glory today has also been achieved.

There is no fairness in this world at all, and whoever wins will have justice and fame.

Yue Fei looked at Xu Rong, who was standing proudly in front of him, and a strong disgust and disdain slowly rose in his heart. Xu Rong, who used to fight side by side with himself and the Northern Xinjiang Army in Bingzhou and resist the attack of the Xianbei people, was a man, but since he followed Wang Yun and these scholars to plot to kill Dong Zhuo, he was no longer a man, but a despicable villain.

In Yue Fei's opinion, to kill Dong Zhuo, to kill him in a dignified manner, to kill him on the battlefield, he hated this kind of despicable villain behavior very much.

If you are a martial artist, you should be frank and open, you should rely on a heroic and righteous spirit, come in blood, go in the knife, even if you are dead and defeated, it is still vigorous and vigorous, and you are also a good man.

Xu Rong felt the change in Yue Fei's attitude towards him, but Xu Rong misunderstood Yue Fei, he thought that Yue Fei's indifference to him was because of his current identity.

Although Xu Rong's official position is not as high as Yue Fei's, Xu Rong's participation in Shangshu is in charge of state affairs like the hussar general.

After Xu Rong finished announcing the holy decree, Yue Fei's face suddenly became ugly, and he asked, "Is this the meaning of the Son of Heaven, or the meaning of Situ and General Xu?" ”

During this period of time, Xu Rong often discussed state affairs with ministers such as Taiwei Zhou Zhong, Situ Wang Yun, Sikong Chun Yujia, Taichang Chongfu, Taifu Lu Kui, Dahonglu Zhou Huan, Shangshu Lingshi Sun Rui and other ministers, and had a more detailed understanding of what Li Yi had done in recent years, and his views on Li Yi gradually changed.

Li Yi had the strongest army of the Han Dynasty, but he had always used the crisis in northern Xinjiang as an excuse to resolutely refuse to ask King Dong Qin, causing the Han to be pushed into the abyss of overturning by Dong Zhuo step by step.

Why did Li Yi refuse to ask Dong Qinwang? Is it really for the northern frontier? The Han Dynasty is about to be overturned, what is Li Yi still doing guarding a barren northern Xinjiang? Obviously, Li Yi has ill intentions, not only has the intention of cutting off the hegemony, but also has the intention of usurping the society.

Xu Rong was still smiling, trying his best to explain the various reasons why the imperial court refused to allow the Northern Xinjiang Army to enter Guanzhong.

Yue Fei listened to Xu Rong's words very patiently, and then gave him two big words: bullshit.

The smile on Xu Rong's face froze, and he was extremely embarrassed.

"General Xu, can I understand it like this?" Yue Fei sneered, "After my Northern Frontier Army finished killing the rebellion, then turned around and returned to the outside of the Saiwai?" ”

Xu Rong hesitated for a moment, and said in a low voice: "What Situ means, I also want to ask the general to give up Jizhou......"

"Really?" Yue Fei laughed angrily, "Okay, good, good." (To be continued.) )
