Chapter Seventy-Nine: A Dilemma
In fact, Dong Zhuo's ambition was not so big, at first he wanted to be a general at most, but later, the situation and opportunities coupled with Li Ru's planning, finally he had that kind of power, but this was not necessarily a good thing for him.
Dong Zhuo does not have the heart to sit in that position, Dong Zhuo is a person, if you use one sentence: I don't look like a man!
Being domineering, arrogant, brutal, murderous and unreasonable, lustful, there are almost no positive images, in fact, these qualities are nothing to put on a monarch, the same is true of Emperor Qin, the same is true of Han Wu, but they are not stupid.
Although Dong Zhuo is not useless, he also has a positive image and talents, such as making friends, being brave, arrogant, and cunning, but these qualities are dispensable for a monarch.
The monarch knows what he needs, he can enjoy but not indulge, while Dong Zhuo sits back and watches impulsive, lustful, murderous, and brutal.
Dong Zhuo can only be the precursor of the king, although he has made many friends and is brave: Dong Zhuo is good at riding, archery, and can open the bow left and right on the horse.
When he was in Xiliang, whether it was a Han hero or a Qiang hero, Dong Zhuo did his best to make friends with it, once received the Qiang hero, because there was no hospitality at home, he directly slaughtered the cattle, and after the Qiang herosome learned about it, he dared to give a thousand heads of livestock to Dong Zhuo as a return gift, which shows that Dong Zhuo in his youth won the hearts of the people in Xiliang.
In the early years, he attacked the Huns, won a thousand levels, and attacked the Qiang people under Zhang Huan's command, capturing 10,000 people, but Zhang Huan hated Dong Zhuo's personality.
But Dong Zhuo is arrogant, and his sense of revenge is also very strong, if it is according to the original historical trajectory, about a few years later, when the northwest is peaceful, the main general Zhang Wen summoned Dong Zhuo, but Dong Zhuo did not arrive, regardless of Zhang Wen's duties, and even offended with words, Sun Jian, who was Zhang Wen's Sima at the time, thought that Dong Zhuo should be killed to be a military force, Zhang Wen did not agree because of Dong Zhuo's prestige in Liangzhou.
And later after taking power, Zhang Wen was caught by Dong Zhuo and whipped to death in the Chang'an bazaar, this is the representative of the Shi clan, and then during the conquest of the rebels, Huangfu Song vetoed Dong Zhuo twice, and later proved that Huang Fu Song was right, Dong Zhuo held a grudge, and deliberately humiliated Huang Fu Song many times after taking power, only because of the intercession of Huang Fu Song's son Huang Fu Jianshou, he was not killed, and Huang Fu Song represented the Jiangmen family in the north at that time.
That's it, everyone has a sense of revenge, which can only be a flaw for the monarch, but Dong Zhuo is still impulsive, only three days after entering Luo, Dong Zhuo forcibly abolished, regardless of the opposition of Lu Zhi and other people with high prestige, resulting in a rapid decline in his image in the hearts of scholars, and then he ignored his confidant Wu Qiong and Zhou Mi's advice, forcibly ordered the capital to be moved, and killed Wu and Zhou Erren in a fit of anger, but regretted it afterwards.
After discovering that Lu Bu was having an affair with his maidservant, he threw his halberd out in a fit of anger to attack Lu Bu, coupled with the harsh treatment of Lu Bu's subordinates before, which made Lu Bu secretly dissatisfied with Dong Zhuo.
This person disregarded the prestige of the superior, and took advantage of the burial of Empress He, excavated Liu Hongzhi's mausoleum, plundered treasures, and when the capital was moved, he ordered Lu Bu to dig a large number of mausoleums to dig up treasures, and also indulged the soldiers to rape and plunder in Luoyang, so he never had the opportunity to return to Kanto.
This person also killed extremely much, for example, when the servant Shi Chaolongzong visited Dong Zhuo, he forgot to remove the sword, Dong Zhuo took advantage of the topic to play, and ordered him to be beaten to death, and later sent troops to rob and kill the son of Dasi Nong, and instructed people to kill Empress He's mother Wuyangjun, and even dug up He Miao's body from the grave and dismembered it and threw it in the garden, slaughtering the people who participated in the February Society Sacrifice as a military merit.
The rest, such as lust and the like, are nothing, Dong Zhuo has many evil deeds, and there are countless ministers and ministers who have been tortured and killed by Dong Zhuo by various means.
In just a few years, he was able to toss his basic plate unconsciously, betraying him one by one, which is also a talent.
Of course, Dong Zhuo also had positive ones, such as decision, and later on the eve of the Rebellion of the Ten Standing Servants, the Han Court transferred Dong Zhuo to the state pastor, and Dong Zhuo stopped in Hedong, near Kyoto, when he got the strange movement of the court.
After He Jin's death, Dong Zhuo immediately entered Beijing, and received Liu Wei and Liu Xie in Beibi Mountain, obviously he was just speculating, but he said that he had worked hard and made great achievements, and reprimanded the ministers, after entering Luoyang, he quickly took over the soldiers and horses of He Miao, who was also killed, and controlled the situation, and then promoted a large number of celebrities, and reconciled with Yuan Shao, Wang Kuang and other representatives of the scholar clan who openly rebelled against him.
In general, Dong Zhuo in the early years was a relatively ordinary image of a local hero, with outstanding martial arts, but once he gained power, his lawless personality was gradually exposed, and the first to notice it may be his old boss Zhang Huan, later Zhang Wen, and Yuan Shi, who promoted Dong Zhuo, should have been aware of this, but because of the current situation, Dong Zhuo has never been effectively suppressed, which eventually led to Dong Zhuo's ascension.
After taking the throne, although Dong Zhuo briefly showed political acumen, he finally couldn't suppress his bursting personal desires, resulting in the gradual loss of the little bit of support he had.
Even after deciding to move the capital to Chang'an, Dong Zhuo may have started the mode of breaking the jar, completely giving up the so-called political ambitions, and began to vent his selfish desires, Dong Zhuo is ambitious, capable, and has many conditions for achieving great things, such as being good at making friends, having brains, cunning, etc., but in the end, after the expansion of power, selfish desires also gradually expanded, and his narrow impulses, greed for money, lust, and cruel killing The dark side began to appear, and completely occupied his normal mind, and finally he died on his dark side.
Of course, at this time, Dong Zhuo has not been exposed so obviously, he is in danger at this time, he is the pastor of Qingzhou, which does not mean that Emperor Han believes in him at this time, this is the result of a multi-party compromise.
The slaughter of the Qingzhou Shi clan is actually good news for the Han Emperor, and Dong Zhuo can't go too fast, otherwise he may not be able to explain it when the superintendent of the court comes to check.
Supervising the post, supervising the post, the poster traversing, the supervising post is similar to the emperor's Qincha, and is the emperor's person, for example, before, when Dong Zhuo was in the first year of Taishou in Hedong, he inspected the superintendent of the post in Hedong and refused Dong Zhuo's money, which cannot be said to be a clean official.
According to the general number of roads, at this time, it should indeed be boasted that the post supervisor is a clean official. It's just that the superintendent refuses bribes, but it is closely related to the political situation.
After Li Ru's careful investigation, Dong Zhuo understood the reason for the refusal of bribes, and the post supervisor implemented Liu Hong's political policy of cracking down on party members, and at that time, Dong Zhuo was friendly with the Shi clan and the Hedong Shi clan was prosperous, so Dong Zhuo was the party member who was hit.
If it weren't for Li Ru's timely friendship with the Ten Standing Servants and the offering of a large amount of money, I am afraid that Dong Zhuo, the position of the Taishou of Hedong, would not have been able to do well.
Speaking of this, we have to mention the issue of party power, imperial power is not autocratic dictatorship, at least the imperial power of the Han Dynasty has never been like this.
The imperial power of the Han Dynasty has always been subject to the political situation, limited by the relationship between monarchs and ministers, and even now the imperial power of the Han Dynasty is declining, because there were many small emperors in a row, and relatives and eunuchs fought for power one after another, while the scholars continued to grow, and the imperial power existed in name only.
By now, the scholar clan had grown to such an extent that the emperor could only uncariously wrest power from the courtiers represented by the nobles through his relatives and eunuchs.
This situation has changed through the efforts of several emperors, and before Emperor Ling, Emperor Huan had already attacked the bureaucracy through party means and established some advantages.
In order to consolidate this advantage, Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty began to try to break the monopoly of Confucianism under the banner of respecting Confucianism, such as making Confucian classics public, and trying to break the tradition of taking scholars from Confucianism in a variety of ways, such as establishing Hongdu Menxue.
In order to break this advantage of imperial power, the courtiers indulged in the Yellow Turban rebellion, seized the favorable opportunity of the Yellow Turban Uprising, and forced Emperor Ling of Han to remove the party.
And countless restricted scholars, it is because of this political situation that during the Yellow Turban Uprising, they entered the government with military merits, and if Liu Hong finishes cleaning up the Yellow Turban, they will be the target of the next party leader.
From the perspective of the Han court, if you talk about the crime, you can only say vaguely "befriend the students of the counties, drive each other, and become a party together", and the crime is only "slandering the court and disrupting customs".
However, even so, judging from these few sentences, the performance of the representatives of the scholar clan led by Lu Zhi in the Yellow Turban Rebellion is a typical "friendship with the disciples, and even more driven by each other".
What's more, because of Liu Hong's suppression, Lu Zhi has performed poorly on the battlefield and has lost power, so in this way, in the power game, Lu Zhi's forces belong to the faction that all parties will not focus on protecting, so Lu Zhi will give up his military exploits, such as to Huangfu Song, such as to Zhu Jun, such as to Dong Zhuo, but they will not say a word for Lu Zhi.
If the scholar clan wants to sell the tragic character, someone must be beaten and aggrieved, and no one wants their own people to be unlucky, so naturally Lu Zhi's faction is the most suitable, but after suffering a loss, he will naturally be compensated for his kindness.
In fact, Liu Hong wants to suppress the Shi clan, because the imperial power is supreme, someone must be beaten on behalf of the Shi clan, but the power is too strong and can't be beaten, the Yuan family and the Yang family are both big families of the fourth world and the third duke, and they are not easy to move, and they know how to protect themselves, so naturally Lu Zhi is the most suitable.
For example, before, Dong Zhuo didn't check, in fact, he was a good target, the most suitable person to take out the flag to worship the post, naturally Dong Zhuo, if it wasn't close to the imperial capital, he confessed to the ten permanent servants in time, Dong Zhuo would have had the same ending as that group of scholar officials.
So according to Li Ru's meaning, Dong Zhuo created the character of a cool official of the Qing Dynasty by himself, and threw himself into the tide of the confluence of eunuchs and courtiers, after all, he belongs to a wealthy family, has outstanding military achievements, has strength, and has military achievements, so Liu Hong is not easy to move him.
Of course, if this is the case, and the post governor still refuses Dong Zhuo's bribe, then this means that the contradiction between the courtiers and the eunuchs is likely to be irreconcilable and tense, so there is a high probability that an earth-shattering political dispute will break out in the next step.
At this time, Dong Zhuo was faced with this problem, of course, what he encountered was not the post supervisor of Chali Hedong, but Chali Qingzhou, after all, the Qingzhou scholars complained one after another, and played in many ways, Huangfu Song actually fought very well in Qingzhou, and fought city by city.
His tactics are to surround but not fight, field battles, the Yellow Turban can't beat him, he only needs to divide the troops to trap and defend the city, how many cities can Qingzhou, the Yellow Turban can defend for ten days and a half is good, the Yellow Turban also has to prepare a certain number of troops in the city, less is not good, less, Huangfu Song will naturally attack the city.
Of course, this tactic is very good, this is based on the reason for the lack of food in the Yellow Turban, and now the Yellow Turban is not short of food, originally ten days and a half months to build a city, now the Yellow Turban is not short of food, Huangfu Song not to mention ten days and a half months to build a city, a month, or even two months to lay down, therefore, after tossing in Qingzhou for so long, it took a county to subdue, or the kind full of devastation.
In this way, the Yellow Turban is a big loss of strength, after all, Huang Fu Song will slaughter the whole city of Yellow Turbans when he fights the next city, even if the Yellow Turban is a million people, it will not be able to bear it if he is killed by Huang Fu Song like this, and even, at this time, there are already Yellow Turbans who have secretly broken away from the sequence and fallen into the grass.
The yellow scarves can't stand it, and the scholars in Qingzhou can't stand it, and Huangfu Song kills people, there is no mercy to talk about, and at this time, for the scholars, the population is wealth, and everyone has the land, but the people who cultivate it are gone, so they can't go to the land and farm by themselves, right?
Originally, I wanted to take advantage of the Yellow Turban Rebellion, and then divide the family into hundreds of people and thousands of people, but Huangfu Song slaughtered like this, they couldn't stand it.
At this time, the Yellow Turbans also began to plunder the population, which was needed to trade in the north, the Yellow Turbans guarded the towns with heavy troops, plundered the people to trade in the north, this was another bad news, and the warriors who were slaughtered by the Yellow Turbans were not one or two.
And this is one of the reasons why Huangfu Song was transferred out of Qingzhou, Huang Fu Song doesn't care where people go, what he wants is the merits of war, the merits of capturing the city, and the merits of killing the enemy.
Bring in a Dong Zhuo who can speak, Dong Zhuo's reputation in the mouth of the scholars is still very good at this time, no one cares about the subsection or something, he can take care of the interests of the scholars, this is fine.
However, what Liu Hong meant was that Dong Zhuo had to go slowly, it was best to wait for Dong Zhuo to arrive, the Qingzhou Shi clan was gone, and the best Kong clan was gone, but Dong Zhuo didn't dare to do this, after getting this instruction from the messenger sent by the Ten Standing Servants, Dong Zhuo had difficulty deciding how he left.
Soon, the emperor is not satisfied, then he, the Qingzhou pastor, may only have a term of office for one year, and even later, he will be idle, and slowly, it is the Qingzhou scholars who offend, and not all the Qingzhou scholars will be slaughtered, and the Yellow Turban captives go north, not to kill people, and the food and material supplies along the way are very good, and those scholars may be able to take root in the north.
And if they don't die, Dong Zhuo will greatly offend them, how much is the potential strength of the Shi clan, Dong Zhuo still knows a thing or two, and wants to find a way not to offend, but even Li Ru can't think about it.
