Chapter 420 The Compromise of the Yuan Family and the Weakness of Dong Hu

Cao Cao was worried, and Yuan Wei, who was standing in front of the rough map, was also worried and looked at the direction of Liangzhou...

"Uncle, He Jin has agreed."

Yuan Shao roughly said the matter about the General's Mansion. Like Yuan Shu, he stood aside with great respect, waiting for the turn of the tutor of the current dynasty.

"Benchu, today you went to Henan County with your teacher and told Dong Zhuo...the previous conditions were the same."

"Uncle, then Dong Zhuo is the head wolf, we really need it..."

Before Yuan Shao could speak, Yuan Shu could not help but speak, but when he saw his uncle's cold face, he couldn't even say anything behind him.

"madness!"

Yuan Wei snorted and scolded him, and the brothers Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu all bowed their heads.

"Today, Jian Shuo wanted to kill He Jin. Even if the Empress Dowager, Shi Hou, spared Jian Shuo's life in order to save his life, he should have executed Jian Shuo afterwards, but the facts are the opposite!"

Taking advantage of Jian Shuo's failure in rebellion, He Jin and Yuan Wei could kill everyone in the inner court. Back then, eunuchs could use the "party corruption" to implicate and suppress the gentry. The civil and military officials of the outer court could also use the same method to kill the ten eunuchs and kill all eunuchs of the inner court. But when everyone was sure to win, the Empress Dowager He firmly opposed it!

Yuan Wei thought about today's events, and there was an indescribable anger in his heart. When Emperor Liu Hongbing passed away, Dong Zhuo did not make any abnormal movements. After rolling in the court for decades, he knew that as long as the court would not have too many changes, Dong Zhuo would not have the opportunity to interfere in the court affairs. Jian Shuo rebelled, he only needed to let the Sili School Captain arrest the people, torture them severely, or torture them at will, or do some perjury at will. Even if the eunuchs in the inner court were killed, it would only be normal means and would not cause too many changes in Luoyang. Even if Dong Zhuo was eyeing Henan County, he would not have any chance to make trouble.

But such a good opportunity was ruined by a damn woman!

"snort!"

Yuan Wei snorted coldly, and his dissatisfaction with the Empress Dowager He was also his shallow dissatisfaction with Yuan Shu.

"Today, Japan is the best opportunity to kill all eunuchs, but it was stopped by Empress Dowager He, and even used... Dong Zhuo to take over Xiyuan and imprison all the captains of each battalion. You should know... Regardless of whether we want to or not, only by stabilizing Dong Zhuo, we have the opportunity to eliminate all eunuchs in one fell swoop!"

"snort!"

"How can they be compared with our famous families such as ours before things succeed, we must stabilize them! Let them use them for our Yuan family!"

After Yuan Wei said this, Yuan Shao, who was still a little worried, was completely relieved.

"What my uncle said is that before we can eliminate the eunuch party, we must not let Dong Zhuo step into Luoyang. My nephew will go to Henan County with his son today. However... if we want to temporarily stabilize Dong Zhuo, it may take greater temptation to do so."

Yuan Wei nodded silently and said blankly: "You get five hundred gold from Curry first. Don't talk about the rest. Just tell the Dong family that he can be the Grand Marshal afterwards."

After hesitating, Yuan Shao lowered his body and held his fists.

"promise!"

After Yuan Wei and Yuan Shao explained some miscellaneous matters, he scolded Yuan Shu, who was not doing his job for a full quarter of an hour before he drove the two out of the study. He stood quietly in front of the rough map, but his eyes were always staring at Liangzhou and Ji County...

Dong Hu didn't know that he had affected the trajectory of history. If the little princess had not led Hu San, Dong Yue would have gone to Luoyang. After Liu Hongdia passed away, Jian Shuo should have launched a palace coup. The sooner he took action, the greater the possibility of success.

The political characteristics of the Han Dynasty were that the relatives in power were in power, and they were all for hundreds of years. From the three dukes to the lower class, everyone would instinctively recognize Empress Dowager He. The longer the time delayed, the more inclined the eight camps in Xiyuan were to the general He Jin. The less chance Jian Shuo had, he had, he had, only in the chaotic period when Liu Hong died of illness, had a greater chance of success. However, when the Shanzi Camp and the 1500 soldiers in the Beidi Camp were lying on the edge of Luoyang, Jian Shuo and He Jin could not attack each other, and they were worried that Dong Zhuo was the yellow bird behind him.

Dong Zhuo had 20,000 troops in his hand, which formed a balance with the Eighth Battalion of Xiyuan. Even if the combat power of Xiyuan Eighth Battalion was slightly worse, it was reached due to the righteousness of the court. The Eighth Battalion of Xiyuan was divided into Jian Shuo, He Jin, or the battle between Empress Dowager Dong and Empress Dowager He.

The strength of Empress Dowager Dong is not as good as that of Empress He, but when Dong Zhuo, an external enemy, faced with everyone, internal conflicts were forced to suppress. However, when Dong Zhuo took a step back and let Hu San and Dong Yue leave Henan County, the conflicts between the internal and external courts broke out instantly, and He Jin's strength also forced Jian Shuo to take a risk of a coup.

Ji County is too far from Luoyang, and even if Dong Hu can get some news, he is extremely lagging behind. However, he has read "Three Kingdoms", knows that Jian Shuo will coup, and knows that the Ten Generals will fight with He Jin to die together. If it were six years ago, even though he knew it was impossible, he would have tried to stop these things from happening. As for now... he would rather have been a short pain than a long pain.

The war with Han Sui and Ma Teng was still earlier. After taking over the entire five Hexi counties, the best time to start the war was after the autumn. After the five Hexi counties harvested autumn grain, it was safer for the people who could free up more food to transport more food.

When defeating Han Sui and Ma Teng, there was little time left for hundreds of thousands of people to plant summer. It took time to disperse the people to various county towns and measure the fields. Even if the people were temporarily placed in various county towns instead of rebuilding villages, it would be necessary to repair the residential houses in the county towns that were damaged by the war, and all these would take time.

When the war was about to settle, everything was chaotic and busy, and a large part of this busyness was inefficient and ineffective, but that's the reality.

The Hehuang Valley has become the only paradise in Liangzhou. It has accumulated a lot of grain over the years. Not only has a lot of grain accumulated in the treasury, but the people's granaries are also too much to eat. The more grain, it is cheaper, but Dong Hu still gave the people a "one hundred and fifty coins per stone" protection price without limit purchase of grain.

The types of grains are different, and the prices are different, and the amount of grain is different. The price of grain ranges from 100 to 300 yuan. For the price of 600 yuan per stone in Chang'an Sanfu, 150 yuan is indeed no longer cheaper, but for the people in the Hehuang Valley, no matter when, 150 yuan per stone is extremely high.

The Han Dynasty lacked copper, and even west of the Yellow River. Except for the tribal leaders, the people basically didn’t have any copper coins in their hands. This is not the most important thing. The most important thing is that even if there is food in the Hehuang Valley, it is difficult to transport it out due to roads. When transporting grain from Xining City to Ji County, at least two stones of grain would be consumed. In other words, the price of grain of 150 coins per stone would be tripled when transported to Ji County. When transporting it to Chang'an County, it was higher than the current price of six or seven hundred coins per stone in Sanfu Chang'an.

There was too much food consumed on the way, but the food did not disappear out of thin air, but was eaten into the stomach, right? He was not for business and made money, but for feeding countless hungry people in Liangzhou. If he was wasted it, he would be wasted.

The food on the way was all from Dong Hu. After the grain was delivered to the counties of Longxi County, Hanyang County, and Anding County, the food borrowed by the people and the cattle and sheep needed to be returned. One code was converted into one code. He did not want to raise a group of natural unruly people.

Adhering to the practice of training more young officials and generals, he threw all the civil affairs to Da Ya, Er Ya, San Ya... A group of girls, even the youngest girl who was only ten years old, was lying on the table like a little adult, sorting out some numbers. In addition to focusing most of her energy on the army of various battalions, she even spent all day doing his money house and Jinyiwei's secret spies. Others had never done these things, and they had not even heard of them, so he could only go to the water to cross the river.

When June entered, Hua Xiong sent a report of the battle. The four Kuitou brothers fought with Hua Xiong. The scale of the battle between the two sides was not large, with only tens of thousands of people fighting. The Xianbei people only had a tentative attack. They probably wanted to test whether it affected Hua Xiong's morale after he left. The battle process was not fierce, and the battle time was very short, and the two sides did not lose too many troops.

When Dong Hu entered Liangzhou, he used a total of 20,000 young and strong men in Pingcheng, Dong Xiaoyi, Dong Gu, and 10,000 Sun Niu, and some military craftsmen, scholars, etc., and a total of 40,000 to 50,000. There were only 40,000 to 50,000 infantry cavalry in Huaxiong, the eastern front of the Danhan Mountain, the Pingcheng, 15,000 to 20,000 to 20,000 to 20,000 to 20,000 to 20,000 to 20,000 to 20,000 to 20,000 to 20,000 to 20,000 to 20,000 to 20,000 to 20,000 to 20,000 to 3,000 to 20,00

Huaxiong's troops included five thousand Hu cavalry, ten thousand Han army cavalry, ten thousand Wuwan cavalry, ten thousand military farming infantry, and ten thousand military farming infantry of Dong Sixiao's Zhu Wenze.

The soldiers in Pingcheng were almost all drawn, leaving only 5,000 military farmer soldiers. After taking Liangzhou, another 10,000 Hehuang Qiang cavalry were transferred to Pingcheng, with a total of 15,000 infantry and cavalry.

There are 5,000 Hu cavalry and 10,000 Han army cavalry in the grassland of Yanran Mountain, and 5,000 Hu cavalry under Liu Qi in Guyan Mountain, with a total of 20,000 elite cavalry.

In such a huge area as the three counties of Hetao, the Beidi County, and Anding County, there are only 10,000 infantry soldiers in Xing Yong.

There are 60,000 military farming infantrymen in Taiyuan County, but the real elite only has 10,000 military farming infantrymen originally belonged to Pingcheng, and the remaining 50,000 soldiers can only be considered strong people. Not only is the training time short, but the bigger problem is that they have never truly experienced the baptism of the battlefield, which is very different from the young and strong military farming soldiers originally belonged to the 100,000 Yellow Turban Army.

There are 150,000 soldiers and horses in the entire Bingzhou, and these soldiers are all adult males in the entire Bingzhou, and there are only 100,000 elite soldiers who can fight, including 100,000 of which Wuwan Yiconghu.

The 100,000 elite troops, even for the "Three Kingdoms" Wei, Shu and Wu, which are well known to later generations, it is a sight to be seen. However, if you see the defensive surface of the 100,000 elite troops, you will know that these troops are actually insufficient. Moreover, this is the ultimate force of Dong Hu under the sturdy military force, and the result of all men being soldiers.
