In November of the second year of Zhongping, the general Dong Zhuo broke the Qiang army in Meiyang, followed the pursuit but was surrounded by the Qiang people, and the general Zhou Shen was killed, and finally Dong Zhuo led the remnants of the army to break through the siege.

On the Luoyang Palace, Emperor Han Ling said with a smile on his face: "Zhongqing, the general Dong Zhuo has a merit in breaking the enemy, if it weren't for Zhou Shen's negligence, he would not have been surrounded by the Qiang people alone, but Zhou Shen has died in battle, and I am not to blame, but Dong Zhuo has made meritorious contributions in guarding the garden and breaking the enemy, but he has to be rewarded, what do you think?" ”

I don't know how many bigwigs Dong Zhuo bought off in the imperial court, Emperor Ling proposed to reward Dong Zhuo, in addition to the opposition of the Kwantung scholars, the general He Jin and the Zhongchang servant Zhang Rang were all in favor.

Emperor Ling thought about it for a while, but he named Dong Zhuo as the marquis of Taixiang, with thousands of households, and the subordinates will each have a reward. But Zhang Xiu is a little special, nominally he is still Zhang Wen's subordinate, but in fact he has been put under Dong Zhuo. Although Zhang Xiu has a small reputation, in the eyes of these bigwigs in the court, he is still an insignificant little person, so he directly assigned Zhang Xiu to Dong Zhuo, and the reward is natural.

In addition, Emperor Ling moved the general Zhang Wen as a lieutenant and returned to Luoyang, and his corporal was under the command of Dong Zhuo. It seems that Dong Zhuo's act of guarding the garden tomb for the Ling Emperor is still very popular with the Ling Emperor, although the Kwantung scholars feel that something is inappropriate, but they dare not sweep the Ling Emperor's interest, and the court discussion ended hastily.

The reward was passed on to Chang'an City, and basically everyone except Zhou Shen, who died in battle, was rewarded. And Zhang Wen was even happier, he could stay away from the bitter cold frontier and hard military life, and return to the prosperous imperial capital Luoyang. After Zhang Wen immediately found Dong Zhuo and made a settlement, he left Chang'an City happily with his servants in a small car.

In the evening, Dong Zhuo was in Chang'an's mansion, and all the generals under Dong Zhuo attended, and even Sun Jian, who Dong Zhuo kept recruiting but had not yet succeeded, was also present, and this banquet was a celebration banquet. The biggest hero of this battle is naturally Zhang Xiu, in Zhang Xiu's opinion, Dong Zhuo's subordinates are really good, in addition to the banquet immediately read out the court's reward, he also personally gave Zhang Xiu another reward.

The war has stopped, and Zhang Xiu was promoted to Fenwei Lieutenant, which is the highest official position among the captains, and then he will be a general. And Zhang Xiu's original army has been trained by Zhang Ji and Hu Zhen in Chang'an City for several months, and now it is already Zhang Xiu's army, and Zhang Wen's original 10,000 troops who guarded the city with Zhang Ji also belonged to Zhang Xiu after Zhang Wen left, plus the remaining 3,000 elites after the expedition, Zhang Xiu had 38,000 troops under his command, and he had a quarter of Dong Zhuo's troops. However, Dong Zhuo didn't care about this, and let Zhang Xiu directly lead these soldiers, it seems that after the battle in Beidi County, Dong Zhuo trusted Zhang Xiu very much.

At the banquet, the rest of the generals were also rewarded, and some personnel were also decided, except for Sun Jian, who did not explicitly serve Dong Zhuo, so Dong Zhuo only made up for the 8,000 soldiers and horses in his headquarters, and the rest of the generals were regarded as holding heavy troops. Li Dao commanded Dong Zhuo's elite Flying Bear Army of 8,000, but Dong Zhuo was ready to expand the Flying Bear Army to 30,000. Hua Xiong, Xu Rong, Niu Fu, and Fan Chou were each in charge of 20,000 troops.

There are about 150,000 troops in total, not counting the army directly commanded by Dong Zhuo, so there are at least 200,000 troops, so it will definitely be conscripted, but Zhang Xiu knows that Dong Zhuo naturally has his means to persuade Emperor Ling to let him expand the army, and he is not worried about this. At this time, Zhang Xiu just wanted to train his subordinates well and train them into elite soldiers.

After the banquet was dispersed, Dong Zhuo dragged Li Ru to the study for a secret talk.

I only heard Dong Zhuo ask: "Wen Wei, before the banquet, you can ask the imperial court to allow me to take charge of 200,000 troops, what is the plan?" ”

I only heard Li Ru say: "The lord and He Jin and Zhang Rang are both connected, but there is no resistance to the court, just persuade the emperor, here the emperor Fu Song and Zhang Wen can help the lord." ”

Dong Zhuo heard it and said curiously: "Huangfu Song's old man has always been at odds with me, how can he help me?" ”

Li Ru heard it and said with a smile: "Huangfu Song has resumed his position as a Zhonglang general at this time, and he can attend the court meeting." And Huangfu Song once brought the Yellow Turban to Pingqiang, but it was in vain. And the battle of the lord fair Qiang, the most contribution is that the lord originally came from the army of Xiliang, and the soldiers of the Ping Yellow Turban led by Zhang Wen are not able to fight at all, so the lord can write to the court to ask for conscription, Huangfu Song and Zhang Wen have led this soldier, and they will speak for the lord, and Zhang Rang and He Jin also speak for the lord. As long as the lord speaks to the imperial court, after the spring ploughing, he will go out to pacify Xiliang, and this matter can be regarded as nine out of ten. ”

Dong Zhuo nodded again and again when he heard this, and said, "Wonderful, wonderful." However, although I can lead 200,000 troops, as Wen Wei said, the soldiers of the Yellow Turban under my command are not strong, but I have an army of 200,000. ”

Li Ru heard it and said with a smile: "Don't worry, Confucianism has a plan for Li Daitao." ”

Dong Zhuoqi said: "Li Dai Tao stiff? ”

I only heard Li Ru explain: "In fact, even if the Yellow Turban soldiers of the Ministry of Ping are dismissed, and then recruited from Xiliang, so that the 200,000 troops under the command of the lord are all Xiliang soldiers, and they only need a little training, they are elite." ”

Dong Zhuo laughed when he heard it: "Wonderful, Wen Wei is really a clever plan." But where are the dismissed soldiers to be dismissed? ”

Li Ru pondered for a moment and said, "Just send it to the land of Hedong and the state." ”

Dong Zhuo heard it and said strangely: "In this way, wouldn't it be a disaster in Hedong, and Wen Wei can know that Hedong is the place where I started......

Li Ru smiled and said: "Sending to Hedong is to enrich the people of Hedong, and the rest can be sent to Merge Prefecture." As soon as these soldiers entered the state, they had nothing to rely on in their lives, and they must have played the banner of the Yellow Turban. If the Yellow Turbans enter the east of the Kou River, the lord can ask the imperial court to return to the east of the river to exterminate the Yellow Turbans. The yellow turban is only a thief, naturally not the opponent of the lord, when the lord wants to capture, he will be captured, and if he wants to release, this matter is easy, and then the lord can hide the army in the east of the river. The people of Xiliangqiang saw that our army had gone, and only part of it could be here, that is, they would join Kou Sanfu, so that the lord could recommend the generals under his command to the imperial court to lead the troops to exterminate the Yellow Turban in the east of the river, and he would ask the court for reinforcements to resist the Qiang people who entered Kou Sanfu, so that the lord's power could rise again. With such elite soldiers, the lord and the fierce generals are like clouds, just wait for the court to change, Hedong, Sanfu army can enter Luoyang, the lord to achieve hegemony is just around the corner. ”

After Dong Zhuo listened to Li Ru's words, he took a deep breath, exhaled for a long time, and sighed: "God has given me a lot of worries to help me achieve hegemony." He burst out laughing.

Li Ru waited for Dong Zhuo to laugh, and then said: "Lord, Confucianism has a plan, which can make Xiliang chaotic, and the lord can take charge of 200,000 troops without damage." ”

Dong Zhuo heard it and said happily: "What's the plan, Wen is worried." ”

Li Ru smiled slightly and said, "Discord." If this plan is successful, there will be chaos in Xiliang this year, and the lord can calmly recruit and train new soldiers in Chang'an, and then cut down Xiliang in the next year. We can...... And so and so on...... This ...... like this."

Dong Zhuo next to him smiled when he heard this.
