Chapter 333 Moving the Capital
"Now in the Hu prison, the soldiers have no fighting spirit and their morale is low. General Lu sent villains here, hoping that the prime minister will send reinforcements to solve the danger of the tiger prison."
As the saying goes, what kind of general there is, what kind of soldier. Wei Xu blamed all his faults on the dead Hou Cheng, and Lv Bu also blamed all his faults on Cao Cheng, who was captured by the Right League of the Righteous Master.
"What!! Twenty thousand armored cavalry were annihilated!!! Lu Fengxian is so incompetent!!!"
When Dong Zhuo heard the news, he was immediately so angry that his whole fat body jumped up. This iron armored cavalry was the foundation of his Liangzhou army, and there were only 50,000 under his command. In order to build this 50,000 armored cavalry, it can be said that he spent countless gold, silver and thoughts. Now it's almost half lost, which is like cutting half of Dong Zhuo's meat. How can Dong Zhuo not feel sad?
Li Ru, who was next to Dong Zhuo, kept shrinking his eyes and silent, as if he was in the current situation of thought.
Dong Zhuo was so angry that his whole body trembled violently. At this time, his brain was swallowed up by anger and could no longer think. At present, he looked at Li Ru and exhaled a few evil words.
"Wenyou, how can it be now!? Although more than 20,000 people of the thief army were annihilated today, the number will be nearly 100,000. If you rush to divide troops to aid the tiger prison, I'm afraid that Jiguan's original good fighters will be lost. And the tiger prison had to be saved. If the tiger prison is broken, another thieves led by Cao thieves will go to Luoyang City.
Today, the emperor and the officials of the imperial court are all in Luoyang City, and Luoyang City is not allowed to lose!"
Li Ru's face was calm, his whole face was tense, his brain was spinning, and he was thinking about the solution quickly. When Dong Zhuo saw Li Ru thinking, he didn't dare to disturb him, so he had to remember to walk back and forth.
Just after Dong Zhuo's whole fat body was nervous and sweated for the third time, Li Ru finally opened his mouth. His eyes were extremely cold, and Dong Zhuozhong, who was seated, couldn't help trembling when he saw his eyes.
"Whether it is Jiguan or Hulao guan, the current situation is not optimistic. Instead of being restrained by them, it is better for our Liangzhou army to let go and gather soldiers and horses together.
The thief army is composed of various princes. As far as they see today, their hearts are different. Now they are divided into left and right alliances. According to the recent exploration, the left and right alliances have an alliance. Whoever comes to Luoyang City first can take the final position as the leader of the alliance.
Based on my understanding of Yuan Benchu, he certainly does not want Cao Mengde to overwhelm him, and Cao Mengde is also bound to win the position of alliance leader. Therefore, if we draw back soldiers and horses from Jiguan and Hubaoguan now and let them join forces in Luoyang, and no matter who goes to Luoyang first and sits in this position of alliance leader, the other side will not accept it. On the contrary, the thieves gathered together will be more chaotic when the left and right alliances are better!"
Li Ru was about to go on, but was suddenly interrupted by Dong Zhuo.
"No, no, no. Let them join forces in Luoyang, then Luoyang is not in danger!"
"Ha ha, my lord. Luoyang is just a place of bullets. The reason why it is so important is that it is the capital, and today's saints and imperial officials are here. And why can't we transfer these people and build another capital?
Dong Zhuo's eyes suddenly stared greatly, and immediately thought about it quickly in his heart. Then Dong Zhuo's face slowly turned happy and sighed.
"If it's not what you say, I really don't understand. This plan is feasible. But where is this move going to?
"The old capital Chang'an is prosperous, and there is a danger of letter. In the vicinity, there are more Tongguan and Wuguan that can block thousands of troops and horses, and the capital can be moved here."
"Good, Chang'an is closer to Liangzhou than Luoyang. If something goes wrong, I can also mobilize soldiers and horses from Liangzhou to save him. However, I'm afraid that this rash move to the capital will make people panic. Wenyou, we still need a suitable reason.
"Lord, don't worry, I have made up my mind. We can make nursery rhymes so that Luoyang children can sing nursery rhymes in the market every day. This nursery rhyme is a Han in the west and a Han in the east. It is not difficult for the deer to enter Chang'an.
When the nursery rhymes were deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, the prime minister came out again to respond to the nursery rhymes. It is said that the Han Dynasty in the west is the Han Dynasty, which should be prosperous in Chang'an, the western capital, the twelve emperors, and the Han Dynasty in the east, should be in Luoyang, the eastern capital, and the twelve emperors. The sky is back. The prime minister of the country is corresponding to God's will to solve the current national difficulties, so he wants to move the capital. It can so comfort the people."
"Haha. Good! Good! In this way, you can act according to the excellent plan! Move the capital to Chang'an!"
After Dong Zhuo and Li Ru agreed, Niu Fu, Zhang Ji and other generals were left to guard Jiguan to buy time for the relocation of the capital. At the same time, they also ordered Lv Bu to send a scout to go back to inform Lv Bu about the relocation of the capital. Let him be patient for the time being, guard the customs, and call him back after the relocation of the capital is completed. After the explanation, Dong Zhuo and Li Ru rushed back to Luoyang at night.
A few days later, Dong Zhuo suddenly returned to Luoyang, and there was no big action after coming back. Then suddenly there was a Han in the west and a Han in the east in Luoyang Market. Only when the deer enters Chang'an can there be no difficult nursery rhymes. This nursery rhyme spread very quickly, and soon all the children in Luoyang City became catchy.
A few days later, Dong Zhuoxu summoned all the officials in the court in the Winder Hall and said that there was something important to announce. Hundreds of officials in the court were afraid of Dong Zhuo and dared not come.
In His Royal Highness Wende, Dong Zhuo brought a knife into the hall, and the dragon and tiger walked around the hall. There was a posture that he was the son of today. The officials in the court seem to be used to Dong Zhuo's presumptuousness. The imperial guards outside the Wende Hall are now Dong Zhuo's people. As long as Dong Zhuo gives an order, these imperial guards will immediately rush into the court, arrest all those who resist Dong Zhuo out of the hall and cut them to death.
"Luoyang, the eastern capital of the Han Dynasty, has been built for more than 200 years, and the number of gas has declined. I watched the sky at night and saw that the prosperity was really Chang'an. Recently, I listened to this nursery rhyme in Luoyang. The meaning of this nursery rhyme must be understood by all the public. This is the call of God's will, which made us move the capital of the Han Dynasty to Chang'an. The prime minister has discussed with the emperor and decided to move the capital to Chang'an. You should promote the equipment and prepare for this matter. Don't delay the opportunity to move the capital.
Facing Situ Yang Biao, he gritted his teeth, but finally couldn't beat his conscience. He took a step and looked at Dong Zhuo and said.
"Your Excellency, this nursery rhyme is just a children's play. How can it be serious? If you donate the temple for no reason and abandon the imperial mausoleum, you may suffer the people of Luoyang. It's easy to move in the world, but it's hard to calm down!"
Dong Zhuo's eyes narrowed, and his big hand unconsciously put on the knife at his waist and shouted coldly.
"The words of Master Yang and Apprentice are to prevent the prosperity of the Han Dynasty?"
Yang Biao's speech seems to have aroused the blood of many people. Lieutenant Huang Wan and Situ Xun Shuang came out of the advice one after another. They all said that moving the capital would be harmful but not beneficial, which would only make the people restless.
It was just the excussions of these people, which not only did not reduce Dong Zhuo's intention to move the capital, but aroused Dong Zhuo's anger. Dong Zhuo took out the knife around his waist and shouted angrily, so he wanted to kill people in the court. Fortunately, Li Ru dissuaded him in time. Dong Zhuo just gave up and dismissed Yang Biao, Huang Wan and Xun Shuang from their official positions and demoted them to ordinary people.
When other officials in the DPRK saw it, no one dared to say it. Dong Zhuo asked again who objected, and all the officials agreed with it. From beginning to end, Emperor Xian of Han, who sat on the dragon chair, did not say a word, only to look on coldly.
As soon as the news of the relocation of the capital came out, the whole population of nearly one million in Luoyang was in a panic. According to Li Ru's plan, Dong Zhuo sent 5,000 iron armored cavalry from Liangzhou to capture the rich households in Luoyang, a total of thousands of families, and inserted a big letter "anti-communist against the party" on the flag, cut them all outside the city, and took his family's wealth to make up for the military posture.
At the same time, Dong Zhuo also beat the officials of his disciples from the Yuan family in Runan in the name of thieves, killing them and sting their wealth.
Dong Zhuo constantly seeks money and kills his life in Luoyang City, collects huge gold, and does all kinds of evil. There is a sad resentment in Luoyang City, and the blood is stained with injustice. A few days later, Dong Zhuo sent Li to urge Guo Yan's second general, led 10,000 sergeants, door to door in Luoyang, and entered the house with a knife, forcing the people to move away. Here, the sergeant **ren's wife and daughter seized people's property. If there was resistance, the sergeant Liangzhou held a white blade and killed people wantonly in broad daylight. The sound of crying for a moment can be said to shake the world.
The relocation of the capital is progressing step by step. Almost 100 people in Luoyang died under the oppression of Dong Zhuo's soldiers and horses every day.
At the same time, the other side is closed.
Three days ago, Lv Bu, the general of the Tiger Prison, suddenly ordered the army to leave, leaving less than 8,000 troops to guard the Tiger Prison. The tiger prison guard had a strong right alliance, and after guarding for three days, he took the initiative to offer the pass.
The Right League of Righteous Teachers seized the Hu Prison Pass, and all the princes under it were overjoyed. But except for Cao Cao and Wen Han.
Cao Cao looked at the traces of Lv Bu's army leaving outside the Hu Prison Pass and said to Wen Han next to him.
"Look, Lv Bu's departure is very urgent. As far as Cao knows, this pass has not been broken by Yuan Benchu. Why did Lv Bu leave the Tiger Prison in such a hurry? Is there a big change in Luoyang?
Wen Han's eyebrows were deeply locked, and his face became more and more ugly. He pulled his fists tightly with his hands, and even his nails were inserted into the flesh and blood, and he didn't realize it.
It seems that Dong Zhuo is going to burn Luoyang and move the capital to Chang'an! Wen Han clearly remembers the historical records that Dong Zhuo kidnapped Emperor Xian'an, and killed almost all the rich merchants in Luoyang and took away his family's wealth. Then he forcibly robbed the gold jewelry and cultural relics books in the palace, and burned the temples, government and homes. Nearly 100,000 people who did not leave in time were burned to death. And coerced nearly one million people in Luoyang to travel west with him, so that there were no relics within 200 miles around Luoyang, and the houses were exhausted, desolate and withered, and there was no smoke.
Moreover, these millions of people were forced by Dong Zhuo's soldiers and horses with knives all the way. There are countless people who drag each other and make the people die in the gully. If there is a late man, he will make the sergeant hold a knife and kill people on the road. All the way to Chang'an, the corpses are all over the field. As a result, hundreds of thousands of people died!!
No matter how much impact Dong Zhuo burned Luoyang and brought to future generations, as long as he burned and forced hundreds of thousands of people to death, his sin is heinous!! This can be said to be the biggest evil in Dong Zhuo's life.
In Wen Han's mind, the tragic situation of hell on earth surged up. In Luoyang City, where the flames are in Zhangtian, more than 100,000 people are swallowed up by the flames, and they are constantly stretching out their hands and screaming sadly.
A team of people who were crushed by Liangzhou sergeants with knives, one by one were killed for walking slowly or offending Liangzhou sergeants, throwing their bodies in the wilderness, and their relatives cried bitterly and ruthlessly killed.
The more Wen Han thought about it, the more blue veins on his face bulged one by one, and the whole face was twisted together because of hatred.
"Exordinary, extraordinary!!!"
After Cao Cao felt the fierce hatred that broke out from Wen Han's whole body, the urgent color on his face was a little heavier. After drinking a few times, Wen Han reacted.
"Meng De! Lv Bu returned to Luoyang in such a hurry that Dong Gou must want to coerce the holy officials and the people of Luoyang to move the capital!! With Dong Gou's fierce and tyrannical and unkind personality, this relocation of the capital will definitely lead to great murder and evil deeds, so that the life record in Luoyang will be ruined!"
Cao Cao's slender eyes suddenly enlarged. It was the first time he saw Wen Han's expression of such panic and hatred, knowing that Wen Han's words would not be exaggerated.
"What! Dong Gou wants to move the capital!! You are calm first, how do you guess this! If Dong Gou wants to move the capital, where will he move to?
"It's difficult for me to talk to you in detail for a while. But at present, our two righteous divisions are pressing Luoyang. Dong Gou is afraid that our righteous soldiers will come to Luoyang and save the saint. That's why it's not impossible to move the capital. If I guess correctly, he will definitely move to Chang'an. Chang'an is in danger of writing a letter. There are Tongguan and Wuguan nearby, which can block thousands of troops and horses, and it is close to Liangzhou. This is the best choice for him to move the capital!"
Cao Cao heard a burst of heartbeat. The matter of moving the capital is big, and as Wen Han said, with Dong Zhuo's character, if he really wants to move the capital, he will definitely commit a lot of crimes.
"Exordinary, you can be sure about this!"
"There is no ten, there is also seventy!"
Cao Cao clenched his steel teeth, and his eyes kept shrinking. His whole body seemed to be working hard, but there was a feeling that he could not use it.
"Exordinary, what do you want Cao to do to stop Dong Gou from sinning and harming the people!"
Wen Han's expression condensed and suddenly said a word that Cao Cao would never forget in his life.
