Chapter 581 Dong Zhao

"I was awarded the title of a cavalry general, and the position was higher than three princes on holidays?"

Ma Chao held the imperial edict in his hand and couldn't help smiling at the corners of his mouth: Fazheng's propaganda team really did a good job. For a while, the whole Luoyang was full of rumors that Cao was scheme and wanted to be independent on behalf of Han. And those rumors became more and more amazing. From the illusory words of fate at the beginning to the three words of Cao Cao and His Majesty, they have finally spread to the point of 'the bloody storm in Luoyang City, and the big man is about to fall into the hands of the Cao family'.

Ma Chao really didn't expect that Fa Zheng's propaganda team could have this magic power. When he was about to praise the law, he got a piece of information from Diao Chan: the rumors spread by the Ma family in Luoyang, and other princes are contributing to the flames...

This news made Ma Chao both excited and a little gloating. Even when he slept with Diao Chan at night, he had to let Diao Chan report the latest developments of Cao Cao and Liu Xie before he could fall asleep with a smile.

However, rumors stop at the wise. In the end, it was Liu Xie who took the initiative to move the capital to Xuchang!

According to the news brought back by Shadow, after Cao Cao was slandered by rumors, on the one hand, he treated Liu Xie to become more humble and respectful, and on the other hand, he tried his officials to compile the fate of "moving the capital to Xuchang and Han Dynasty" to fight against the rumors in Luoyang.

However, the results were very little. After all, Li Ru persuaded Dong Zhuo to move the capital to Chang'an, which made the Han Dynasty decline day by day. Under people's mind, Cao Cao's post-poster words were somewhat untenable. For this reason, Cao Cao often woke up in the middle of the night and sighed at the broken Luoyang.

At this time, Liu Xie took the initiative to talk to Cao Cao secretly for a night. On the morning of the second day, Liu Xie issued an imperial edict in the partial hall of Luoyang. On the grounds that Chang'an, the western capital, was ** by the Xiongnu iron hooves, and Luoyang, the eastern capital, had been abandoned for a long time, and both of them could not be repaired. In addition, it was difficult to transfer grain. Xuchang was close to Luyang, the palace of the city, money and grain and people were enough for use. He decided to change Xuchang to Xudu and moved east to Xudu.

Subsequently, an imperial edict was drawn up, saying that Ma Chao, the general of the auxiliary country, was loyal to protect the country, promoted the Xiongnu, and made great contributions to the society. He promoted Ma Chao to the cavalry general. On holidays, he was ranked higher than three princes and guarded Chang'an.

Since then, Luoyang rumors have gradually gone further and further with the car of Liu Xie, Emperor Xian of Han, without a sound...

At this time, Ma Chao threw the imperial edict aside at will and focused on his approval. However, it is obvious that after reading the edict, he wrote a lot more easily.

Jia Xu still narrowed his eyes and came forward. Seeing that Ma Chao's men were on the list and being smeared by Ma Chao, he couldn't help asking, "Lord, what are you doing?"

"Nothing," Ma Chao didn't raise his head and replied, "Your Majesty will naturally have to have a hundred officials to participate in Xudu. As a cavalry general of the Han Dynasty, I naturally have the responsibility to select some loyal and capable ministers for your majesty..."

How smart Jia Fox was. As soon as he heard Ma Chao's words, he knew what Ma Chao was thinking: after Chang'an was captured, Liu Xie did lead hundreds of officials to escape. However, Liu Xie escaped alone, leaving hundreds of officials in the court to be intercepted by Ma Chao and escorted back to Chang'an by Huangfu Li, Zhao Yun and Ma Dai. Now that Liu Xiedong has returned to Xudu, this hundred officials of the Man Dynasty will naturally follow him to Xudu.

Of course, these are just superficial reasons. In fact, Jia Fox knows that the Ma family is a special group that is incompatible with scholars, warriors and royal families. Keeping those civil and military officials is not only useless to the Ma family, but also brings resistance to the Ma family's governance and development. Therefore, Ma Chao wants to take this opportunity to throw those civil and military officials to Liu Xie, so that they can continue to talk and fight in the nest, so that Liu Xie will continue to have a headache.

On the other hand, although Ma Chao does not know what kind of agreement Cao Cao and Liu Xie have reached, he knows that it is impossible for Liu Xie and Cao Cao to work together. Liu Xie fell into the hands of Cao Cao alone and had no power to compete with Cao Cao at all. Therefore, Ma Chao threw those ministers loyal to the Han Dynasty to Xudu, giving Cao a headache.

Finally, there are some Han ministers who do not respect the Han Dynasty, have no good impression of Cao Cao, and have some skills. Ma Chao should make a good selection and stay for his own use.......

Sure enough, Jia Xu picked up a piece of paper approved by Ma Chao and saw that most of the lists were circled or forked. Jia Xu frowned slightly and said, "Lord, I'm afraid that the people behind this are either Han clan or ministers loyal to the Han Dynasty, right? And the one drawn in the back should be the mediocre minister of the corpse meal, right?

"Not bad..." Ma Chao didn't pay any attention to Jia Xu at this time. After seeing him say a word, he continued to mutter, "Han Rong, the servant, is famous, and he is also a royalist, fork! ; Doctor Zuo Ling? There is nothing wrong with this guy in history, circle! ; Taichang Shi Liu Li? Han clan, fork! Yang Qi, the waiter, the guy who escorted Liu Xiedong in history, fork! ; Hu Mi, the one who was scolded by Huangfu? Um... To be observed; Zhonglang General Yang Mi? I haven't heard of it. I guess it's a waste, and it's a circle!..."

Jia Xu saw that Ma Chao was so distracted and couldn't hear what he was muttering. Then he no longer disturbed Ma Chao and sat aside silently with closing eyes. After a while, Ma Chao finally stretched out, waved a civil officer and ordered, "Write the forked on one piece of paper and the circle on another piece of paper. The rest of those who have neither fork nor circled, show me... Huh? Old fox, haven't you left yet?

"Lord, Luoyang was occupied by Han Siam..." Jia Xu opened his mouth lightly, as if talking about an extremely ordinary little thing. After listening, Ma Chao just frowned slightly and gave a gentle 'oh' to indicate that he knew.

Then, Ma Chao scratched his head and picked up the pen and paper. After thinking about it, he called a civil servant and said, "In my name, write a letter to tell Han Siam to get out of Luoyang. Otherwise, you will bear the consequences..."

After hearing this, the civil official couldn't help but look bitter, but it seemed that he had received so many bloody tasks from Ma Chao. After thinking for a moment, he splashed ink at the next head.

"These officials who came up in the imperial examination really have a few brushes." Ma Chao opened his mouth, as if he were joking, and said to Jia Xu, "What is the efficiency of my work?"

Jia Xu's face couldn't help but suffer a little, deeply saddened by these officials who served under Ma Chao. However, for the sake of the great cause of the Ma family, he still said, "Lord, although there is no need to worry about the defeat of Han Siam's remnants, I'm afraid..."

"It doesn't matter," Ma Chao waved his hand casually and said, "The winter has not passed yet. Han Siam is willing to stay there. If you see that letter, you can raise your troops to surrender. But if he dares to blow me up, I will let him know that the shadow of the Ma family is not a dry meal. Wang Yue and Shi A, two great swordsmen, joined hands and didn't believe that they couldn't take his head in the middle of the night..."

Jia Xu was shocked and immediately reacted: Sure enough, it was Ma Chao! This move knocks on the mountain and shocks the tiger, which indeed shows the example of a cavalry general! Jia Xuben believed that the worst situation was to tolerate Han and Siam for a while. After next spring, he could lead his troops to break through Luoyang. But he never thought that he had forgotten that there was a haunted shadow force in Ma Chao's hand.

Use shadows to deal with Han and Siam and other bandits, you only need to kill Han and Siam, the leader, and the rest of the rabble will naturally lead to internal fraction and self-break. It is indeed the upper art of war that does not fight and subduing the soldiers...

Looking at Ma Chao's current casualness, which are all good political means and military tactics, Jia Xu can't help thinking of one thing: If he is against Ma Chao at this time, how likely can he win?

However, Jia Xu immediately shook his head and sighed that he was too worried. At this time, the previous civilian had copied the list approved by Ma Chao. After reading it, Ma Chao smiled bitterly. After Jia Xu took over, he saw that there were only a few names on it. The top four people are: Huangfu Song, Zhu Jun, Xu Rong and Huangfu Li...

However, the name of the last person made Jia Xu's eyes slightly brightened: Dong Zhao, Dong Gongren.
