Chapter 349 Meeting Tongguan
"Jia Wenhe, did you write this letter or me?"
Wen Han frowned and asked Jia Xu impatiently.
"Wang Situ is cautious, and it is more appropriate for the champion to write this letter."
"In this way, you can give me some advice."
"Of course it is."
After saying that, Wen Han went to a table and sat down. Jia Xu, with a slight smile, was grinding ink for Wen Han. After Wen Han wrote, he would give advice from time to time.
After about half a column of incense, Wen Han read the written letter to Jia Xu. Jia Xu read it several times. After confirming that it was correct, Wen Han handed the letter to Guan Yu.
Guan Yu carefully put the letter in his arms, and after listening to Wen Han and Jia Xu explain the details to pay attention to, he left.
However, Cao Cao led the righteous army to Tongguan and rushed to Tongguan. A day after Guan Yu left Tongguan, he rushed to Tongguan. The defenders at Tongguan saw the horse's hoofs in the distance, the footsteps kept ringing, and the banners covered the sun. They knew that there was a large army coming, and quickly reported to Wen Han.
Wen Han calculated the time and guessed that this was likely to be the army of righteous masters. He immediately sent a scout to inquire. After a while, the scouts came back to report that this army was indeed the righteous master led by Cao Cao.
Wen Han was overjoyed to lead a group of soldiers to welcome the righteous army under Tongguan.
As the sound of the march that seemed to be able to break through the world became closer and closer, Wen Han gradually saw the figure of Cao Cao walking at the forefront of the army. Cao Cao rode a BMW shadow, wore dark lion-headed beast-faced fish scale armor, and wore a black silk gold dragon pattern robe, showing his domineering nature.
And Cao Cao also found Wen Han under Tongguan at the same time. Suddenly, a smile rose on his face and galloped his horse to Tongguan. Just ten steps away from Wen Han, he got off his horse and walked quickly to Wen Han.
Looking at the man in front of him, Cao Cao's expression was very complicated, and he had to make Cao Cao feel awe-inspiring. Because this is a man who is willing to sacrifice.
"Wen extraordinary righteousness, please be worshipped by Cao!"
Wen Han didn't know that Cao Cao would do something. When he wanted to stop him, Cao Cao had deeply finished the gift. The princes behind Cao Cao also disoled one after another and bowed to Wen Han.
"Wen champion, please accept my worship!!"
Soon, the righteous army behind the princes also shouted in unison.
"Wen champion, please accept my worship!!"
Wen Han led 8,000 people to seize Tongguan, which spread almost all the soldiers and horses in the righteous division. No one is moved by his heroic and righteous move to put life and death aside. So this worship, everyone is sincere and oily.
In the righteous teacher, in addition to Cao Cao, the leader of the general alliance, who has received such a big gift, now there is one more person, that is, Wen Han.
"Don't do this. You really can't stand the gift."
If Jia Xu did not tell him the impact of preventing Dong Zhuo from moving the capital, maybe Wen Han would gladly accept the worship of everyone.
But at this time, he is guilty.
"Haha, you are pretending to be modest. It really deserves to be punished!"
Cao Cao laughed, thinking that Wen Han was modest and didn't bother to pay attention to him, and then turned around and said.
"Well, the princes have traveled all the way to Tongguan all the way. They must be tired. Hurry up and lead the soldiers into the customs to rest."
After saying that Cao Cao Cao caught Wen Han, he solemnly asked about the war Wen Han had experienced in Tongguan. Wen Han's face was dark, and he remembered the tragic war in Tongguan in the past. The bloody smoke that had been washed by the heavy rain around Tongguan seemed to be vivid in his mind.
While talking to Cao Cao, Wen Han walked into the customs with him. In it, Cao Cao rarely spoke, but when he heard that Tongguan had been swallowed up by the great fire, his expression suddenly became extremely nervous, and then he heard a timely rain, which put out the fire, and the tension turned into sighing and exclamation.
"Such a dead situation can also be saved. Your extraordinary life is really hard. It seems that you are one of the few people in the world who have great luck!"
The righteous army has rushed to Tongguan, but Dong Zhuo, who is in Chang'an, has not yet known.
Chang'an City was called Fenghao in the Western Zhou Dynasty. Fenghao is the collective name of Fengjing and Haojing, which were built by King Wen of Zhou and King Wu of Zhou respectively. The area where Fenghao is located is called Zong Zhou. In the Qin Dynasty, it was called the internal history. In the early years of the Western Han Dynasty, Liu Bang, the ancestor of the Han Dynasty, set up Guanzhong, set up Chang'an County, and built a new city in the territory of Chang'an County, named Chang'an City, which means long-term stability.
During the period when Liu Bang, the ancestor of the Han Dynasty, built the palace on the basis of the south bank of the Wei River, the north side of the Afang Palace, and the Qinxingle Palace, named Changle Palace, and then built the Weiyang Palace. After that, Emperor Hui of the Han Dynasty built a wall in Chang'an. Subsequently, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty set up Jing Zhaoyin to govern Chang'an, carried out a large-scale expansion of Chang'an City, built the North Palace, Gui Palace and Mingguang Palace, and expanded the Shanglin Garden in the west of the city, the construction of Kunming Pool, and the construction of Zhang Palace.
In the more than 200-year history of the Western Han Dynasty, Chang'an has always been the political, economic and cultural center of the country. Since the time of Emperor Wu, Zhang Qian went to the Western Regions and opened a commercial road. Chang'an City has become a bridge connecting the outer region and the starting point of the Silk Road, which flourished for a while. In its heyday, there were nearly 100,000 households and hundreds of thousands of people in the city.
Unfortunately, during the reign of Wang Mang at the end of the Western Han Dynasty, Chang'an City was once destroyed by the war. To Liu Xiu, Emperor Guangwu of the Eastern Han Dynasty, set the capital Luoyang, and Chang'an was changed to Xijing.
Now Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty has returned to Chang'an again under the hostage of Dong Zhuo. At this time, Chang'an is no longer as prosperous as the heyday of the Western Han Dynasty. Compared with Luoyang, it will be a little lonely.
If the Weiyang Palace is dilapidated, there are still many traces of war everywhere. However, since the Eastern Han Dynasty, several generations of emperors have intended to build the Changle Palace, but this project is really huge. Not long after the construction began, they were forced to stop the construction because of many disasters and disasters at that time.
"Please also ask the emperor to be wronged for a few days. After the prime minister defeats Cao Mengde and other thieves, he will definitely summon people to build a lot of work and rebuild the Weiyang Palace!"
Dong Zhuo knelt down on one knee in front of Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty, and his big fat face with a beard forced him to feel a little sadness.
"It's really hard work. The prime minister did his best for the Han Dynasty and fought fiercely with Cao Cao, Yuan Shao and other traitors. Unfortunately, the thief was so powerful that he went straight to Luoyang. The prime minister did not hesitate thousands of miles and escorted me away from Luoyang with 100,000 troops. This loyalty really moved me.
I intend to call Xu Xiangguo Shang's father, Dong Huang, the younger brother of Shang's father, as General Zuo and Marquis, and Dong Huang, the nephew of Shang's father, as the servant, and the commander-in-chief of the forbidden army. I don't know if my father is willing to accept my feelings?"
"Sang Shang Longen, I dare not stand it! Don't worry, I will try my best to kill the thieves and stabilize the world for the Han Dynasty!!"
In fact, before Dong Zhuo came, he ordered a little eunuch to inform Emperor Xian of Han to make this gift. Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty was like a puppet in Dong Zhuo's hands, at the mercy of Dong Zhuo.
"Hahaha, I am the lord of a country, and I am forced to recognize the thief as my father. Dong Zhuo, you bully the king and play with the court. I can't wait for Cao Mengde to attack Chang'an as soon as possible and smash you into ten thousand pieces!!"
Emperor Xian of Han's face was expressionless, but his heart was full of grief, but he could not show it, otherwise he would be tortured by Dong Zhuo many times.
"The father is righteous, and there is no need to kneel down from today on."
"The emperor's kindness is vast, and I would like to thank the emperor here."
Dong Zhuo slowly stood up his huge body and smiled at Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty. Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty's scalp was numb. Thinking about this, Dong Zhuo definitely wanted to sleep in the dragon bed at night and rape the imperial concubine.
At this time, Li Ru never walked outside the Central Palace. After kneeling down to Emperor Xian of Han, he made a gesture to Dong Zhuo. Dong Zhuo nodded to Li Ru secretly and motioned him to go out and wait. Then after appeasing Emperor Xian of Han for a while, he retreated and left.
Outside the Weiyang Palace, Li Ru closed his eyes and waited for Dong Zhuo quietly. After hearing the heavy footsteps in the Yang Palace, he knew that Dong Zhuo was walking out and quickly opened his eyes to greet him.
"Wenyou, let you wait for a long time. What do you need to report?"
"Master, just now, the three generals, Niu Fu, Li Tuo and Lv Bu, have returned with a large army. They originally wanted to wait for the lord, but Ru saw that all three of them were tired, so he ordered them to go back to rest and report to the lord tomorrow."
"Well, after they came back, Chang'an was stable. Wen You, how many soldiers are there in Chang'an now?
Dong Zhuo and Li Ru are walking all the way through the Weiyang Palace as if they were walking through their own back garden.
Hearing Dong Zhuo's question about the soldiers and horses, Li Ru's expression changed slightly, and he couldn't help but feel a little sad.
"Our Liangzhou army now has less than 120,000 soldiers and horses in Chang'an."
Dong Zhuo suddenly stopped his footsteps and stared at him, as if he had ignited a flame.
"120,000!! At our peak, there were 300,000 soldiers and horses. Doesn't this mean that more than 100,000 people will die in the hands of Cao Cao's group of traitors!"
"The Lord is angry. There is no reason why there is no undead in this war. Although we have lost more than 100,000 Liangzhou Erlang, Cao Cao's group of traitors also killed and injured a lot!"
"Hateful, hateful!! If this group of traitors falls into the hands of the prime minister's country, the prime minister will break their hands and feet, chisel their eyes, cut their tongues, and cook them in a big pot!!
In an instant, Dong Zhuo's anger seemed to turn into endless hatred. Li Ru shivered when he heard it, because he knew that Dong Zhuo was not angry at all. He had used this horrible technique on many officials and ministers who resisted him.
Dong Zhuo roared for a while and kicked a few horizontal bars in a row, which scared many maids and eunuchs who walked not far away curled up.
"Drink~!"
Dong Zhuo took a deep breath and suppressed his anger. Then he saw the horizontal column that was kicked by himself. As if he remembered something, he said to Li Ru.
"Yes, Wen You. Tomorrow, the order will be sent to the 12 counties of Liangzhou, and the governors of each county will move one-tenth of the population of the county to Chang'an. Now Chang'an is the capital of the big man. How can it be so deserted? When the people of Liangzhou came, you began to prepare to restore the Weiyang Palace and let it show the spirit of the palace in the Western Han Dynasty.
When Li Ru heard that Dong Zhuo was going to withdraw the population from Liangzhou, he was immediately shocked, and then he was unbearable.
"What? Wen You, do you have a problem with the behavior of the prime minister?
Seeing this, Dong Zhuo was very unhappy and asked viciously.
