"Haha, good! That's great, God is helping me!" After Dong Zhuo learned about what happened in Luoyang recently, he was so happy. He Jin, the ten constant servants, and the others all died in the turmoil. It was really God help! "Li Ru, you take five thousand elite soldiers with me to Luoyang. The others are waiting here!" Dong Zhuo said with a smile.
"Lord, no! We have taken the lead, but we cannot guarantee that everything will go wrong, so we must lead the army. This way we can not only frighten the dignitaries in Luoyang, but also quickly occupy the capital. When the overall situation is decided, then the lord will You can do whatever you want!" Jia Xu said with a smile.
"Yes, what Jia Wenhe said makes sense. Now Yuan Shao and the others are in the city, and there are 50,000 Yulin troops inside. These are big troubles. It was only then that the Yulin troops saved the lives of the Young Emperor and King Chenliu. If We may not be able to snatch them over if we just bring five thousand people over. If the army presses over, no one will dare to do anything to us!" Li Ru also added that he was quite convinced of Jia Xu. He has a lot of clever ideas. Even though he is young, he has a way to save his life!
"Yeah! That makes sense. Then let's go with the army. I want to see who else can stop us. He Jin, a fool, can't hold on for another day or two!" Dong Zhuo looked helpless, as if he was worried about He Jin. Somewhat disappointed!
"If my lord wants to go to Luoyang, we must act now, otherwise there will be changes!" Jia Xu said.
"Okay, let's go to the city!" Dong Zhuo laughed, dear Luoyang, I'm here, you mortals just tremble under my feet!
Just when He Jin was running to Luoyang, Yuan Shao was still looking for the imperial seal. He had searched every corner of the palace several times. For this matter, he even sent the Queen Mother He up and down again, but it was a pity that the Queen Mother He She doesn't know the whereabouts of Yuxi, but she despises Yuan Shao even more. Not only is he not good in bed, but he is also not good at doing things with courage and means. He is far worse than others!
"Lord! A large army was found outside the city. It looks like Xiliang cavalry!" Gao Lan came to report!
"What? Xiliang Iron Cavalry? Why are they here? How many people are there?" Yuan Shao was stunned and asked quickly
"About three hundred thousand, it looks like the old thief Dong Zhuo came here in person!" Gao Lan said with a bitter smile. Now he felt a little sympathy for his lord. He had just acquired a city, but he was about to be driven away again!
"Damn it, that bitch Queen Mother He must have spread the news, but how could they come so fast?" Yuan Shao said bitterly. These words made Gao Lan continue to roll his eyes. Is this the point? Shouldn't we pay more attention to what to do next?
"That lord, what should we do now?" Gao Lan had to bite the bullet and interrupt Yuan Shao's roar.
"What can we do? Let's hold the city first and watch Dong Zhuo's actions, but be prepared to retreat. Thousands of us are no match for Dong Zhuo!" Yuan Shao said with a bitter smile, and at the same time he felt contempt for the He family brothers and sisters. , now he understands, it is estimated that He Jin has been colluding with Dong Zhuo for a long time.
"Look, my lord, Dong Zhuo and the others are about to enter the city, how can we stop them?" Gao Lan's expression changed and he saw that the Xiliang army did not slow down at all and walked directly towards Luoyang. They were really overbearing!
"This is unreasonable!" Yuan Shao gritted his teeth and said, but the situation was not as good as others, so there was nothing he could do! "Archers, get ready. Shoot me a round of arrows first. I want to see how arrogant Dong Zhuo is!" Yuan Shao said with murderous intent. Although this kid sometimes doesn't have a bright head, he is still quite brave!
"Fire arrows!" With the command, the city of Luoyang was filled with arrows, which surprised Dong Zhuo. Unexpectedly, Yuan Shao, a young boy, dared to take action first. He accidentally suffered a loss because he was walking very fast in front of him. The young cavalry was killed directly, making Dong Zhuo furious, "How dare you do this, little beast! Attack with the whole army! I will tear Yuan Shao alive!"
"No, my lord, this is Yuan Shao showing his attitude. We have just arrived here and we should live in harmony with the Yuan family, otherwise it will be detrimental to our entry into the city!" Li Ru said with cold eyes,
"Hmph, how can we live in peace if you kill my soldiers! Kill them first and then talk about it. There is nothing that can't be solved with one knife. Even if it can be solved, just chop it with a few more swords!" Dong Zhuo said angrily. Dong Zhuo ignored Li Ru's suggestion. , raising an aristocratic family is like raising a tiger, for these families Dong Zhuo wants to crush them all!
Just when the two sides were at war, a group of majestic cavalry suddenly arrived, all with feathers on their heads and wearing war robes. They arrived majestically at the gate of Luoyang City. They saw two children surrounded by people. These two people were the Young Emperor Liu Bian and Chen Liu Wang Liu Xie. They had been staying in the camp. When Luoyang City was stable, they were being escorted back to the palace by Wang Yue. Unexpectedly, at this time, they met Dong Zhuo and Yuan Shao who were about to take action. !
Dong Zhuo, who was about to attack, was startled and thought that the Yulin Army was going to attack him. When he saw the two little dolls, he understood the situation instantly. At this time, Dong Zhuo suddenly wanted to kill these two dolls. Then His eyes naturally became more fierce, which only made Young Emperor Liu Bian tremble with fright and almost fell off his horse, making Wang Yue secretly shake his head. However, Liu Xie was very energetic, his eyes were bright, and he looked at Dong Zhuo and others with great interest!
"My lord, that is the Young Emperor and King Chenliu. If we can control them, this big man will be at our mercy!" Li Ru said with a dark smile.
"Then attack and take them down!" Dong Zhuo took action without thinking, which shocked Li Ru and Jia Xu. Damn it, can we not be so reckless!
"I mean we have control in our hands, not arrests. Let's just say that we are here to escort them. As long as we are allowed into the city, we will have a chance to control them." Li Ru said with a cold sweat on his head, fearing that Dong Zhuo would get angry if his head got hot. Kill it!
"Is there any difference?" Dong Zhuo asked stupidly.
"The difference is huge. If you attack them directly, you will be a traitor, and the world will rally to attack them. If you protect them, you will be a loyal and good man. All the scholars in the world will return to serve the lord. When the time comes, the lord will hold the emperor hostage to order the princes!" Xu said with a smile,
"Well, it seems that the Za family has to be loyal and good for once!" Dong Zhuo nodded and said thoughtfully.
At this time, the two sides were in a stalemate, and the little Chenliu King Liu Xieyue immediately stepped forward and shouted, "Who is coming?"
Dong Zhuo was stunned and couldn't help but admire this little guy's courage. "Dong Zhuo, the Governor of Xiliang!" Dong Zhuo said slowly
"Dong Zhuo? But Dong Zhuo and Dong Zhongying who led troops to quell the Yellow Turban Rebellion and recently quelled the Qiang people?" Liu Xie asked
Dong Zhuo was shocked. This little kid knew him so well and was even more pleasing to him. Looking at the young emperor Liu Bian next to him, he was really not worth mentioning. "That's right!" Dong Zhuo's posture lowered even further!
Seeing Dong Zhuo like this, Liu Xie breathed a sigh of relief. He finally managed to frighten him. At the same time, he admired Cheng Feng even more. As a teacher he had never met before, he told himself to pay more attention to Dong Zhuo. It seemed that he was still there. Useful, "Are you here to protect the country or to rebel?" Liu Xie asked loudly, and at the same time stared at Dong Zhuo coldly, as if he would attack if they disagreed!
"Your Majesty, Dong Zhuo, is here to escort you. I heard that Luoyang was in great trouble, so I came here with 300,000 yuan in armor to protect you!" Dong Zhuo said quickly, fearing that he would be labeled a traitor because he hadn't entered the city yet. After listening to Dong Zhuo's words, Yuan Shao's face became even more ugly. He never expected that a peach picker would come along the way. What made him most angry was that he was so powerful!
"Since you are here to protect me, why don't you kneel down when you see the emperor?" Liu Xie's voice became louder and louder. He was really high-spirited. If Liu Xie knew that in real history, this would be his most glorious moment. , I don’t know what I feel.
"Ah! Your Majesty, Dong Zhuo, pays homage to King Chenliu!" As soon as Dong Zhuo heard this, he quickly got off his horse and saluted with the people behind him cheering.
"Get up!" When Liu Xie saw Liu Bian, he was trembling with fright. He couldn't even say a single word, so he had to speak for him. Then Liu Xie went over and took Dong Zhuo's hand and praised him. All kinds of praises made Dong Zhuo I was excited and nervous at the same time. I was excited because my plan was successful, but I was nervous because this little baby knew me so well. I couldn’t remember many things, but he knew everything about me!
After Dong Zhuo's army entered Luoyang, the first thing they did was to take over the city defense task of Luoyang. The Xiliang cavalry moved quickly and occupied the palace and Luoyang city gate before the Yulin army arrived. Yuan Shao's five Thousands of elite soldiers ran out of the city in despair, making all the Xiliang soldiers laugh. Dong Zhuo made a time lag and firmly held Luoyang in his hands, leaving Wang Yue and Yuan Shao speechless!
"Haha! Luoyang is really rich!" Dong Zhuo laughed, deeply hiding the greed and cruelty in his eyes.
"Congratulations, lord, on your great success!" Guo Si, Hua Xiong and others congratulated in unison.
"Haha, it's still early. We have only occupied Luoyang initially. Whether we can hold it is still a question. By the way, Li Ru, what should we do next?" Dong Zhuo said with excitement.
"The next step is for the lord to establish his prestige. The lord can first promote some talents and get rid of the people from those aristocratic families. If they dare to oppose, then kill them directly. This will effectively deter them!" Li Ru smile
"It's a good idea, but the most important thing is for your lord to be honest, so lord, you can ask the young emperor and King Chenliu to make you the prime minister, so that you can take possession of your title!" Jia Xu suddenly said.
"King Chenliu, what do you think of the Za family deposing this young emperor?" Dong Zhuo suddenly said after hearing Jia Xu's words.
"This? It's a perfect opportunity to establish your authority!" Li Ru and Jia Xu looked at each other and said in unison. At the same time, they couldn't hide their shock. Dong Zhuo really dares to think about this, but I like it!
"Then let's do it like this. The Za family will become the prime minister first and see who opposes it. Then we will attack them. By the way, we will promote all those people from Liu Xie. This will prepare us for the dethronement in the future. When the court comes, The cleansing is almost done, let's destroy that useless young emperor!" Dong Zhuo arranged the fate of the young emperor Liu Bian in just a few words.
"What? This can't work? How can this work?" The spokespersons of the major families headed by the Yuan family were arguing in the court. Ever since they found out that Dong Zhuo was going to become the prime minister, this group of people had not been quiet, especially the Yuan family. They had been planning for a long time and finally saw the opportunity to climb to the top of the Ninth Five-Year Plan, but they were beaten back to where they were by Dong Zhuo. This is even more intolerable!
"This is unreasonable. How can Dong Zhuo, a warrior, be the prime minister?" Listening to the words of these people, the old god Dong Zhuo sat upright next to the young emperor and watched the group of people arguing below. The young emperor Liu Bian's head was full at this time. Sweating profusely, I didn’t dare to say a word.
"Ahem! Everyone, you don't seem to understand this situation. The Za family is informing you, not asking you to discuss it. From today on, I, Dong Zhuo, will be the prime minister!" Dong Zhuo chuckled and glanced at the Queen Mother He. This little bitch still Not bad, with fair skin and graceful figure, she looked like the best at first glance. When Dong Zhuo stared at her, Empress Dowager He seemed to sense something, her body trembled unconsciously, and she felt regretful!
"Bold thief, you can be the prime minister, you...ah!" Before the man could finish his sentence, he was stabbed to death by Guo Bang with a sword. The pungent smell of blood filled the hall. , frightened the young emperor and Queen Mother He so much that their faces turned white.
"Are there any objections?" Dong Zhuo asked with a smile as if he had convinced everyone.
"What a thief, ah!" Another sword blow. Before the Xun family members could finish speaking, they were lying dead in the main hall. Only then did all the people understand that the day had changed, and it was no longer the time for them to do whatever they wanted. Everyone was submissive and did not dare to speak again. Many people were even trembling. After all, the corpses smelling of blood were still there on the ground!
"Greetings to the Prime Minister!" Li Ru spoke at the right time, causing the officials to follow him in sparse salutes.
"Haha! Yes, yes, it would be great if it was like this earlier. The Za family doesn't have to take action anymore. You must know that the Za family likes nothing more than saving trouble. As long as you are obedient, I will be easy to talk to!" Dong Zhuo said with a smile on his face, but Make the people below even more fearful!
"As the saying goes, everything goes well with this family. We are one family. This court cannot be without an owner for a day. Next, the Prime Minister will arrange positions for you!" Dong Zhuo said and gave Li Ru a look. Then I saw Li Ru took out the Taoist edict and read it to everyone. Anyway, all the officials and generals of Xiliang were placed in the Han Dynasty. Guo Si, Li Jue, Zhang Ji, and Fan Chou were appointed as the generals of the Four Expeditions. Li Ru Niu Fu, Hua Xiong, and Xu Rong were the generals of the four towns, Jia Xu was the general who joined the army, and there were even more titles! After all this was over, the Hanchen below knew what it means to be overbearing. They will not discuss this with you. If there is any problem, they will be killed directly. Several people who were about to express different opinions were killed before they could finish their words. Beheaded on the spot!
Seeing that there were not many people opposing him, Dong Zhuo was about to do something more, planning to shock the group of people again. At this time, there was a sudden commotion, which made Dong Zhuo frown. Is there someone who doesn't have the foresight to challenge his authority?
"Report to the Prime Minister! Ding Yuan, the governor of Bingzhou, led his troops outside the city!"
"Oh? Ding Jianyang's son is also here. Haha, it seems that Luoyang is going to be lively. Li Ru, go and ask him what he is here for. Let him wait outside the city until the Prime Minister is free and summon him again. Him!" Dong Zhuo said indifferently
"Yes, Prime Minister!" Li Ru said, but before Li Ru went out, he heard the man say again, "Yuan Shao's army is also stationed outside the city, and he has already released the Yulin army!"
"Huh?" Dong Zhuo's eyes turned cold, and he couldn't help but look at Yuan Huai, but saw that this old man had his eyes closed, as if it had nothing to do with him, as if what Yuan Shao did had nothing to do with him, which made Jia Xu feel sad. Surprised, if the Yuan family cannot be completely eliminated, then it is best not to touch him.
"Is there anyone else coming?" Li Ru also felt something was wrong and asked.
"Youzhou Gongsun Zan, Nanyang Yuan Shu, and Changsha Governor Sun Jian are all reorganizing their troops. I heard that Gongsun Zan is about to arrive in Chenliu!" This man quickly told the news, which made Li Ru and others secretly say they were lucky!
"Ding Yuan and Yuan Shao, please see me! I wonder if we should let them in!" Suddenly another person said, which made Dong Zhuo frown.
"My lord, don't worry, just let them in. They won't be able to cause any trouble!" Li Ru said with a smile. Li Ru was called a magician, and he had his own abilities. He was eaten by Cheng Feng last time. Fortunately, I am much calmer now than before. Now I just want to mention the abolition of Li in front of these two foreign princes and see what their attitude is! At that moment, Li Ru quietly told Dong Zhuo this, which made his eyes light up. He was indeed his own wise man!
"Let them in, I want to see what tricks they do!" Dong Zhuo said carelessly, but the Han ministers below would not underestimate him. This is a standard demon king.
Not long after, Ding Yuan and Yuan Shao came to the main hall, but when they saw the situation in the main hall, their expressions changed. Looking at the look of the young emperor and the empress dowager, they more or less understood that the old man Dong Zhuo was establishing his power!
"How dare you not kneel down to salute the Prime Minister and His Majesty!" Guo Si shouted, making Ding Yuan frown. As for Yuan Shao, he directly ignored Guo Si's words. The Queen Mother He even made herself vomit, and returned Her son salutes? As for Dong Zhuo, he was just a waste, not to mention not in Yuan Shao's eyes.
"Haha, I'm here to offer incense to the late Emperor. As for the Prime Minister, I don't know who it is?" Ding Yuan was also strong and retorted directly.
"Presumptuous!" Guo Bang wanted to speak, but was stopped by Li Ru, who quietly gave Dong Zhuo a look.
"Haha, everyone says that Ding Jianyang is resolute and unyielding. When we meet him today, he is indeed well-deserved!" Dong Zhuo laughed loudly, and then took a closer look at Ding Yuan, but most of his attention was focused on the tall, fierce-looking man behind him. Mighty people are attracted!
"Since you are here, it just so happens that I have something to do. Just be a witness. The late emperor encountered an unexpected event and passed away. However, this great lineage cannot be cut off. The young emperor was established by General He Jin. However, with this The prime minister noticed that the young emperor was timid and fearful, and did not have the spirit of an emperor. On the contrary, King Chenliu was intelligent, open-minded, resolute, and calm in dealing with things. He must be a sage monarch. Therefore, the prime minister decided to dethrone the young emperor Liu Bian from the throne. It was Liu Xie's fault. Be the emperor!" Dong Zhuo laughed.
These words made everyone's expressions change greatly, and some people even trembled with anger. Even Yuan Huai was a little surprised. This Dong Zhuo was too domineering, and he actually established his authority like this.
