Chapter 162: Going for the Best Plan (Part 1)
The Han and Tang dynasties were both real and empty inside. When Dong Hu wanted to riot Luoyang on the same day, it looked a little ridiculous. How could 500 soldiers be in chaos? But when he thought about it, how could Dong Zhuo control the entire Luoyang when he led 3,000 troops into Luoyang?
Whether it is five hundred people or three thousand soldiers, it is ridiculous for the imperial capital of hundreds of years of dynasty, but the threat is real. All the elite soldiers and horses are quelling the chaos outside, whether it is five hundred or two hundred thousand, they are actually warning the emptiness of the imperial capital.
Emperor Liu Hong could not let go of Jizhou's capture and could not really ignore the threat issued by Dong Hu. He hesitated for a long time, but in the end there was no result. But when the content of the letter was posted in the court, all the ministers knelt on the Deyang Palace, impeached eunuchs to harm the country, and impeached eunuchs to collude with Qiang and man-made disasters to disrupt the Han Dynasty...
Some wanted to execute eunuchs, some wanted to recruit soldiers immediately, some wanted to transfer the army to quell the rebellion back to the capital, and some wanted to recruit Sanfu soldiers to garrison, but more were to arrest Dong Zhuo, and Dong Hu was punished, and the charge was to intent to rebel...
But Dong Hu has 200,000 people in his hands!
Dong Buyi was never recruiting soldiers from the Han Dynasty. Dong Buyi had precedents of seizing imperial soldiers and had a criminal record of crossing the border and robbing food. Before the New Year, Lintao even killed officials and rebelled!
Capture Dong Zhuo, capture Dong Hu...
What should I do if I really rebel?
It's okay that Dong Hu didn't have the three strategies of "upper, middle and lower". After saying this, even if he didn't have the intention of rebellion, the three ministers knew that when they could come up with these strategies, Dong Hu would have the intention to move Luoyang, or he had thought so, otherwise he would not have thought of these things.
I thought about it, but I didn’t implement it for some reasons, but this does not mean that the court will not do it after there is no way out!
When the lord of Huwuwan's lieutenant sent a threat, Dong Hu said these words to warn Huangfu Song and others. At the same time, he was also warning the three dukes and some ministers that he did not have the ability to turn the tables and took a step back ten thousand steps. It was amazing that he slapped his butt and ran to the plateau to lie down.
The emperor, the inner and outer courts suddenly discovered that a Lintao baby was even more difficult than the Dong family who had suppressed for twenty years!
The court officials discussed for several days, and the swords and weapons used by 50,000 people had already crossed the Yellow River, but the emperor still did not make a decision. When the student of Qianbahao knelt outside the palace, Liu Hong issued a decree with a sad look on his face, and ordered Gao Wang to pass the order himself, and ordered Dong Hu to immediately lead his troops to the three counties of Hetao...
Gao Wang sent an order to Hanoi overnight...
Seeing that Dong Hu had read the order for a while, he didn't speak up, Guo Sheng and Gao Wang were very worried.
"Thuwa, you...you won't really rebel, are you?"
Gao Wang looked worried and said uneasy. Dong Hu looked at the two eunuchs in surprise and smiled without comment.
"Your Majesty and all the father-in-laws are not at fault. Huwa will lead troops to Bingzhou tomorrow... In fact, Huwa is more willing to take them to Liangzhou, but Huwa knows that no matter Your Majesty or the inner and outer courts, it is impossible for him to agree, but if they are left in the Central Plains..."
Dong Hu shook his head. He knew very well that the court's attitude towards the Yellow Turban Thief. If one stayed in the Central Plains, he would not be able to survive in the future. Instead of doing so, it would be more meaningful to let 200,000 Han people die on the frontier.
Seeing that he agreed, Gao Wang's expression relaxed a little, and then sighed: "Huwa, you... you shouldn't say those words."
Dong Hu was silent...
"Indeed, Huwa is indeed stupid, but... but you don't know at all... Forget it, what should I do? After Huwa leaves this time..."
Dong Hu suddenly didn't want to speak anymore. What should I do? Two hundred thousand people, and the consequences were extremely serious, but he had to determine whether the court could tolerate his existence, or whether it could tolerate some alien existence.
This is extremely important!
200,000 is so scary, but in fact, it is still 200,000 farmers who are scared, and more than half of them are the elderly, weak, women and children who are unable to fight at all. They are the elderly, weak, women and children who can't even pull a bow and shoot randomly.
Two hundred thousand people were nothing. Without Dong Buyicon, Huangfu Song could only chop off all the people in his head, but...
As an unexpected time traveler, even those who grew up in barren mountains and forests know what happened to the Three Kingdoms? There is no righteous battle in the Spring and Autumn Period. The Three Kingdoms are just a righteous battle? If there is no ten Han people, it is a righteous battle?
Dong Hu was extremely reluctant to see Dong Zhuo in trouble with the country, but he knew very well that even without Dong Zhuo, there would be Ding Yuan, Wang Yun, Yuan Shao, Cao Cao, Liu Bei... There would also be Zhang Zhuo, Li Zhuo, Zhao Zhuo... When some people pushed He Jin to fight with the eunuchs in the inner court to die together, when He Jin recruited troops from the outer town and entered the capital, when Liu Yan reported to the governor of the state, chaos in the world was inevitable, and this was not something that Dong Hu could stop if he wanted.
If you can't stop it, you can only follow the trend and follow Dong Zhuo's back and become Dong Zhuo's right-hand man, and stop Dong Zhuo from doing something excessive.
The princes of Kanto raised an army to attack Dong... Is that attacking Dong? That is to tear off the last fig leaf of the Han Dynasty!
Yuan Shao rebelled, Cao Cao rebelled, and more than a dozen princes rebelled, just fight. As long as Dong Zhuo didn't do too much, he treated all the princes as rebels and quelled the rebellions one by one.
but!
There is a prerequisite for this, that is, can the Han Dynasty tolerate Dong Zhuo and Dong Hu? Or, can the court tolerate a powerful minister who commands hundreds of thousands of troops?
Dong Hu must determine this matter, and must determine whether the dynasty with inner tendencies can tolerate him?
When he decided to lead his troops into the Central Plains, Dong Hu was considering this issue, but he was always hesitant. Emperor Liu Hong was just like this in his life, at most he would live a few more years. His goal was to Shi Hou Liu Bian. But when the rank of the Huwuwan School Chief suddenly said "fence-bian", Dong Hu suddenly realized that this was no longer something that Liu Bian could not tolerate, but something that the entire Han Dynasty was, something that the wealthy families of the Han Dynasty could not tolerate.
Dong Hu is neither stupid nor stupid. He knows what it means to say those words, but he must make sure of some things.
...
Dong Zhuo was angry, really angry. He stripped Dong Hu of his clothes and armor and slapped him hard in the empty central army tent...
"If you don't hit you... you don't know what caution is-"
Dong Zhuo pointed at Dong Hu and was furious. Everything was fine. Because of his "up, middle and lower" strategy, everything turned over. After several slaps, it did not dissipate the anger in his heart.
"It's getting more and more messy..."
"It's getting more and more messy-"
Dong Zhuo was furious. Dong Hu wanted to tell him about the three strategies of "upper, middle and lower" in advance. Maybe... he didn't know whether he would enter Luoyang or whether he would choose to be the Grand Tutor of Dong in advance. The key is that Dong Hu didn't tell him in advance!
Dong Hu knelt on the ground and let Dong Zhuo whip and vent his anger. After a while, Dong Zhuo threw the whip to the ground.
"explain!"
"You are not a fool, why do you say such brainless words!"
Seeing that Dong Zhuo had finally reduced his anger, Dong Hu lowered his head and spoke.
"If my uncle is in charge of fighting in Jizhou and taking Guangzong, after he goes down Quyang, will his uncle be trusted by the court and he will be the leader of the ministers since then?"
Dong Zhuo was stunned, frowned for a long time, and then sulked and sat down...
"Continue!"
...
"Although Huwa has done a little too much in Yingchuan County, Huwa has recruited 50,000 soldiers for the court, and has not spent money and food for the court. He has obtained food for 50,000 soldiers for a year. Although Huwa has been violent, he has made more or less a contribution. What's more, we have shouldered all the blame. After returning to Luoyang, we resigned from all the official positions and handed over all the soldiers to our uncle. We are a child who is a fool, and our uncle is always a mature and steadfast general, and he has been fighting for the country for twenty years. There is nothing wrong with it, right? Besides, there is Eunuch Guo and Zhang Sikong in the army."
"In the battle of Dingying, my uncle cleared out all the Yellow Turban thieves scattered in the countryside of Yuzhou and wiped out all the thieves in Yuzhou. The captives of the Yellow Turban thieves alone were 200,000, and the 100,000 yuan was sent to the inner court alone."
"But... my uncle has not been granted a marquis so far, but Zhu Yan has a fief of five thousand..."
"snort!"
After hearing these words, Dong Zhuo felt anger in his heart.
"Continue!"
...
"I, the Han Dynasty, have killed many generals who have been in great success for nearly four hundred years..."
"boom."
Dong Zhuo stood up instantly, looking at Dong Hu without blinking, ignoring the small bite that he knocked over...
"The Emperor Gaozu of Han killed Han Xin and said it was a rebellion... Indeed, Han Xin was rebelling, but are there some things that others really want?"
"When I was under Guangzong City that day, my uncle was also present, rebelling one by one and causing trouble. Xiao He was old and had already lost all his wealth. Wasn't he still been imprisoned by Taizu?"
Dong Hu's face was expressionless, and his head was still hanging...
"When the princess left Beijing that day, Huwa had the best plan to leave with the princess, Guo Gong, and Gao Gongyan. Yan's plan to leave is not to retreat and escape, but to preserve its strength and wait for the time being. If its strength is still there, there is still a chance to make a comeback. If its strength is gone, even if it gets it, it will be useless."
"When I was at Guangzong City that day, my nephew Yan was more willing to let General Lu preside over Jizhou. The main reason was that General Lu treated the prisoners more gently, not as cruel and ruthless as Huangfu Song and Zhu Yan. Except for a few people, most of the Yellow Turban thieves were bewitched people. Although they were rebelling, they were not Qiang people over and over again. Treating leniency would easily make them surrender. But if they didn't give a way out, even if they seemed to be pacified today, there would be a resurgence in the future. Therefore, Huwa would rather General Lu preside over Jizhou battlefield and completely pacify the Yellow Turban thieves with kindness and kindness, rather than letting Huangfu Song preside over Jizhou battlefield. Too much killing will not be beneficial to the stability of the world."
"This is the matter of the Yellow Turban Thieves, and there are also the Qiang people in Liangzhou. My uncle knew that those Qiang people are not good birds and will rebel within one or two years at most! The Qiang people's rebellion is not as easy as the Yellow Turban Thieves' rebellion."
Dong Hu's mouth showed some treacherousness.
"When Huangfu Song quelled the Qiang Rebellion the previous time, he was extremely strong in dealing with the Yellow Turban Thiefs today. No matter how well he said, he would never think about making the Qiang people believe him. If you want to do this as before... that's not to think about it. At that time, no matter how the court wants to suppress his uncle, when no one can defeat the Qiang people, the court will rely on his uncle!"
