Three Kingdoms Eschatology

After hearing this, everyone fell silent.

Wang Yun continued: "As long as Dong Zhuo is punished, the remnants of his crimes will naturally disperse without a leader. Don't worry. Even if this happens, it won't be too late for us to ask Feng Yu for help. Old man I believe that General Lu will be able to withstand their attack before Feng Yu's reinforcements arrive."

Lu Bu replied: "If Dong Zhuo's remaining party gathers heavy troops to come, it should not be a problem for someone to lead the Bingzhou headquarters to resist for a few days. But it is hard to say if it takes a long time."

When everyone heard this, they nodded frequently and thoughtfully.

After they came out of Wang Yun's mansion, they immediately acted according to the plan, and secretly mobilized the soldiers and horses they could mobilize in various names.

Although Chen Tiao did not participate in the core meeting, after the meeting, Wang Yun still disclosed the plan to him, asking him to make corresponding preparations and provide support for the assassination operation if necessary.

Naturally, this matter will be reported to Feng Yu immediately through Feige.During this period of time, Feng Yu has stepped up to consolidate his rule in the Hanzhong Plain.

Those powerful sects had either been attacked by Zhang Xiu before, or were punished by Feng Yu for attaching thieves.The power has been completely weakened to the point where it is not enough.They all expressed their surrender to Feng Yu.

Time flies by quickly, and in the blink of an eye, the cold winter and the twelfth lunar month have passed, and it is the spring of the new year when the flowers bloom.Wang Yun and others have made all preparations for the action of punishing Dong, and they are just waiting to do it.

At this time, Liu Xie, the emperor of the Han Dynasty, was recovering from a serious illness, which is something worth celebrating.As a rule, ministers and ministers have to conduct a special congratulatory ceremony.And this day has been set as Dong Zhuo's death date by Wang Yun, Lu Bu and others.

……

In Shang Shu Cai Yong's mansion, Cai Yong was instructing his servants to rinse and clean his court clothes for him to wear during the next day's congratulations.At this time, Mending came to report: "I want to report to the Patriarch, there is a guest outside the door asking to see him, who is said to be a relative of the Patriarch in the south."

Cai Yong was taken aback for a moment, and thought to himself: [What relatives do I have in the south?Why can't I remember? ] After pondering for a while, he ordered: "Let him come to the study to see me."

In the study, Cai Yong looked at the young man carefully and tried hard to remember, but he couldn't remember it.Cai Yong then asked: "Who is your Excellency? When did you meet this old man?"

The young man replied indifferently: "I have never lived with Cai Gong, but my master is Cai Gong's relatives."

"Oh. Then who is your master?" Cai Yong asked hesitantly.

Young people are exactly Chen Tiao.He didn't answer directly, but silently took out a small bag from his arms and handed it to Cai Yong.Cai Yong opened the small bag and immediately understood everything. It contained a hairpin, which his wife left for his daughter Cai Yan.

Cai Yong was so excited that he almost cried, and asked in a trembling voice, "My... is my daughter okay?"

"Everything is fine. I have married my lord and have a son." Chen Tiao replied truthfully.

"Okay...okay, that's good." Cai Yong didn't know what to say for a moment.

In the early years, since he knew the inside story of Dong Zhuo and Li Ru's persecution of Feng Yu, he had already guessed the intention of Feng Yu's crazy move.It's just that it can't be confirmed that Feng Yu is acting to protect himself, or whether he really thinks that he is Dong Zhuo and Li Ru.This made him worry about his daughter's safety all the time.

Chen Tiao went on to say: "My lord is asking me to come now, to take Mr. Cai back to Zhuyang."

Cai Yong said hesitantly: "I also wish I could see my daughter today. But how can I return after I leave? After returning, what should I do if Dong Zhuo becomes suspicious?"

Chen Tiao immediately replied: "I will tell you the truth, Mr. Cai, this capital will soon be in chaos. This Chang'an city is already under the dangerous wall, and it is not a place to stay for a long time. It is better to leave quickly. After returning to Zhuyang, there is no need to go back. Chang'an is now, and no one knows what Chang'an will become at that time."

Cai Yong's heart shuddered, and his expression immediately became solemn.

Half an hour later, a carriage left the Cai Mansion.In order not to arouse suspicion, Cai Yong didn't bring any luggage.

……

Taishi Mansion, in the pavilion behind a rockery in the back garden.Lu Bu is making love with Diao Chan.

At the height of the love, Lu Bu suddenly held Diao Chan's hand, and the latter's face suddenly became shy.

"Xiao Chan, would you like Yu to be my concubine?" Lu Bu asked bluntly.

Diao Chan's face became even redder, and she stammered, "I'm afraid Mrs. General..."

"Hey, madam has told someone about taking a concubine no less than a hundred times, and she will certainly agree. After you enter my house, you will be sisters."

Diao Chan suddenly thought of something again, her face became extremely ugly and she said: "This servant has been possessed by the grand master, and she is already a broken flower, general..."

Lu Bu had already pulled both of her hands into his own, and said, "I know all of this, but I don't care about it."

Diao Chan shook her head and continued, "I don't mean that, my servant is worried that the Grand Master will not let this servant go, won't agree to this matter, and will bring trouble to the general instead."

Lu Bu sneered and said, "Xiao Chan, just rest assured, the grand master will definitely promise me this matter. The result will be available tomorrow."

Diao Chan said in surprise, "Really!"

Lu Bu nodded heavily, but thought in his heart [Dead people will agree to anything! 】.

Chang'an City spent a peaceful night, and the sun rose above the city as usual.But many people lost sleep that night, and today is destined to be an unusual day in the history of this world.

Chapter 112 One Person, One Horse, One Halberd

When it came to the auspicious time of court congratulations, all the ministers had gathered at the entrance of the main hall of Moyang Palace.But Dong Zhuo, the grand master of the dynasty, was nowhere to be seen.The underage emperor Liu Xie had no choice but to ask the eunuch to promulgate an edict to postpone the ceremony of court congratulations.

The ministers and ministers could only stand quietly on both sides of the hall, waiting patiently for Dong Zhuo to come.Wang Yun and the others were extremely anxious.

The careful Wang Yun also found that apart from Dong Zhuo not coming, there was one missing person—Shang Shu Cai Yong, who was also absent.However, anxiety made him quickly forget about Cai Yong.

After a while, the sound of gongs and drums clearing the way came faintly.Wang Yun's eyes lit up, and he knew in his heart that this was the grand master Dong Zhuo.

The sound of gongs and drums clearing the way can be heard in the palace, and one can imagine what kind of battle there was on the street.

On the royal road leading to the north gate of the palace, thousands of people and horses, step left and ride right, lined up.There are many swords and guns, and the sky is full of banners, with no end in sight.In the middle of the army formation, there are several gorgeous chariots.I don't know which one is riding Dong Zhuo.

The soldiers marched in unison on the bluestone slabs of the royal road, making the sound of breathtaking steps and resonance.The sound stopped suddenly, it turned out that Che Yu had already stopped in front of the palace gate.

Dong Zhuo stepped on the kneeling body of the old slave and got out of the carriage.He staggered towards the north gate of the palace. Under the bright sunlight, his fat body cast a huge shadow on the ground.

In the corridor of Yemen, the palms of several halberd-wielding guards were dripping with sweat. They were all dead men who carried out the task of assassinating Dong.In order to be safe, Li Su, the captain of the cavalry, performed the sword himself and mixed in as a bodyguard.

Apart from his eyelids twitching a few times, Dong Zhuo didn't sense any danger at all.What danger could there be?There are thousands of personal soldiers outside the gate, and the warriors on duty in the palace are all led by their trusted generals.

At this time, he suddenly heard the four words "kill the traitor!", four or five iron halberds were already stabbing at him, and he even found that one of them had a very familiar face, he was by no means an ordinary palace guard.

Although Dong Zhuo had long since lost his former bravery due to indulging in wine and sex and lack of exercise, he was born in the army after all.The reaction was still better than that of ordinary people. Seeing that the situation was not good, he turned around and ran outside, and at the same time opened his mouth to call for help.

"Ding... Ding... Ding" With the sound of metal beating, several long halberds pierced Dong Zhuo's body, but none of them could enter.Dong Zhuo hid two layers of fine armor under his robe, and he was running, so it was not surprising that the halberd blade couldn't penetrate.

Seeing that the first blow was missed, Li Su immediately thrust out the second halberd, this time piercing Dong Zhuo's thigh.Driven by a strong desire to survive, Dong Zhuo endured severe pain and ran out of Yemen with all his strength, followed by Li Su and others chasing after him.

"Save, save... Assassin... Where is Feng Xian!" Dong Zhuo shouted incoherently, and tried to move with a limp.

All this happened suddenly, and the soldiers outside Yemen didn't know what happened, so they couldn't react for a while.A horse galloped towards Dong Zhuo like a red lightning, and hope rose in Dong Zhuo's eyes.

But soon, this hope turned to despair.Lv Bu's sharp halberd blade pierced Dong Zhuo's double-layer fine armor in an instant with the galloping momentum of the red rabbit horse, piercing his chest.Dong Zhuo vomited blood, pointed at Lu Bu and fell to the sky.

Thousands of soldiers came to their senses at this moment, without the command of the general, they consciously raised their swords and guns, facing Lu Bu in a dense manner.

Facing the morning wind, Lu Bu rode his horse forward a few steps and came to the front of the army without fear.Facing the forest of knives and spears, he shouted: "The emperor has an order! Kill Dong Zhuo alone! The rest will not be punished!"

The scene was suddenly silent, one man, one horse and one halberd stood on Qingshi Street, facing the huge army formation.Dong Zhuo's body was piled up beside it like a hill, with blood already flowing all over the ground.

Although Lu Bu was in charge of the guards for Dong Zhuo, the soldiers and horses in front of him were all personal guards who had followed Dong Zhuo for many years.At this time, any famous general who raised his arms could turn the situation around, but such a person did not appear.They were intimidated by Lu Bu's power, and even more intimidated by the edicts in Lu Bu's mouth.

If Dong Zhuo was alive, they could ignore the court represented by the edict, but now Dong Zhuo is dead.

Suddenly, two figures rushed towards Dong Zhuo's body, one was Dong Zhuo's close old slave, and the other was Dong Zhuo's head master Tian Jing, both of whom were Dong Zhuo's confidantes.

They threw themselves on Dong Zhuo's body and were about to cry and curse, when a white light flashed, the old slave's bald head rolled down to the ground.

"Lv Bu, you..." Before Tian Jing finished speaking, he was picked up by Lu Bu's halberd and flew into the air. After flying out for two battles, he fell on his back on the street.At this delicate moment, it is impossible for Lu Bu to let them make more noises.

Lu Bu reined in the horse's rein, and without changing his face, he continued to speak in a cold voice: "Those who resisted will end up like this, and they will have to exterminate the three clans! Now, you put away your weapons, return to the barracks, and wait for the imperial court to order!"

Finally, a high-ranking school lieutenant came out and said: "We will follow the emperor's edict and the general's order, and return to the barracks." After he finished speaking, the soldiers put away their swords and guns one after another.Turn the direction of the army formation and go out of the city...

Outside the main hall, a young eunuch from the Huangmen came running over like flying, and whispered something in Situ Wangyun's ear.

The expression on Wang Yun's face suddenly became agitated, and he knelt down on the corridor outside the hall with a thud, tears streaming down his face, and he looked up to the sky and shouted: "Tie Dong has been executed! Heaven will not kill me...".Those core members of Zhu Dong immediately understood that the operation was a success, and they all became excited together with joy and encouragement.

Immediately afterwards, all officials knew about it.There are worries and joys, but on the surface, everyone looks happy.They followed Wang Yun into the main hall and congratulated the emperor on the "return of the Han Dynasty".

The young Liu Xie was at a loss at first, not knowing what they were talking about.Later, when he learned that Dong Zhuo was dead, he was also happy.Although at his age, he still doesn't know what getting rid of Dong Zhuo really means to him, but the death of a person who made him feel fear is always a happy thing.

Soon, news of Dong Zhuo's execution spread throughout Chang'an City.The sound of firecrackers roasting bamboo tubes sounded in the city.The deserted streets began to be decorated with lights and festoons, and there was a stream of people celebrating...

Outside the city of Chang'an, troops from all walks of life quickly gathered in Chang'an according to the pre-plan. These troops included Lu Bu's former Bingzhou Army, and there were also a small number of troops under the control of the rest of Dong Zhongchen.

In a courtyard in a certain corner of the city, a gray pigeon soared into the sky, circled a few times in the air, and flew southeast.Several hours later, Feng Yu who is far away in Zhuyang will also know the news of Dong Zhuo's death.

At this time, Feng Yu was visiting the newly built Dankou City. In fact, this city was completely used for special purposes, and there were no civilians engaged in all walks of life.It is not so much a city as a large dock.

In the Mianshui canyon outside the city, a high-rise dam has risen, cutting off the Mianshui.A lake with a huge area appeared in the vast watershed between the upper reaches of Mianshui and Danshui.

Chapter 113 God Logic

Chang'an, Moyang Palace.

Above the main hall, Wang Yun was in high spirits, holding a wat board, reporting his various decisions to the emperor Liu Xiezuo, and issuing orders to the officials.Now he is alone in charge of the court.

During the period since the execution of Dong Zhuo, the development of the situation went smoothly beyond Wang Yun's expectation.Most of Dong Zhuo's ministries distributed around Jingzhao Yin have not changed, and they "meekly" accepted the reality that Dong Zhuo's era has become a thing of the past.

There were only a few thorns that were ready to move, but they were also culled in the bud by the army led by Lu Bu.Some even collapsed on their own.For example, Niu Fu, Dong Zhuo's son-in-law, was murdered by his subordinate Hu Chi'er, and his head was beheaded and sent to Chang'an.Dong Zhuo's clan was also wiped out at Meiwu.

Wang Yun thought that he had secured his seat in Chaotang and Jingzhaoyin Sanfu area.Li Jue, Guo Si, Fan Chou, and Zhang Ji, Dong Zhuo's former troops who were fighting in Hedong far away in Hongnong, sent letters to submit to the imperial court and ask for pardon.But Wang Yun did not agree.

His logic is amazing-【These Dong Zhuo's subordinates are originally under the orders of Dong Zhuo according to the military law, so they are actually innocent. If they are innocent, why should they be pardoned?Therefore, if they are forgiven, it will make them feel guilty and worry.So, it is better not to pardon them! 】.

Someone also reminded him to arrange for General Zhengxi Huangfusong to be the new commander-in-chief of the old Xiliang army, so as to appease and unify the subordinate Xiliang army.

This suggestion was rejected by Wang Yun's logic again—【Huangfusong is the general of the Kwantung Anti-Dong Yi Army, and a loyal subject of our Han Dynasty.Let him lead his troops to appease and control the Xiliang Army.Wouldn't it put him in a dangerous place?Wouldn't this chill the loyalty of the Kwantung Rebels? 】

All these situations were immediately reported to Feng Yu by the pigeons released by Chen Tiao.Feng Yu sighed and said to himself: [It seems that what was recorded in the original world "Hou Han Shu Wang Yun Biography" is true. 】

In his previous life, Feng Yu doubted the authenticity of this historical record, because he didn't believe that a person who was an important official of the imperial court, a son of a noble family, who had studied for decades, and who could get rid of Dong Zhuo, would have such chaotic logic.

However, he has been in this world for more than twenty years, and he has already thought about this problem clearly.That is, Confucian literati in this era generally lack the ability to think logically, and Wang Yun is a typical representative.

Only a small number of Confucian scholars possess a certain degree of speculative ability through miscellaneous studies other than Confucianism or their own natural understanding.They are often respected as thoughtful people with the basic ability to act as counselors.

If this logical thinking ability is higher, and has the blessing of a strict intelligence spy network, it is very likely that the world will be regarded as a super strategist who has no plans.

Not surprisingly.Wang Yun's divine logic eventually led to an irreparable disaster.Under Jia Xu's persuasion, Li Jue and Guo Si led their troops to rebel.Fan Chou and Zhang Ji of Hedong responded quickly.The two armies immediately joined forces and marched towards Chang'an.

The reason for Jia Xu's persuasion is clear and clear—【If you abandon the army and flee to your hometown, you are a fugitive.It would be better to lead the army to rebel. If you succeed, you will naturally be in charge of the government and the world.If he lost, he would just be a fugitive again, and there would be no more losses.Why give up this opportunity? 】

Although this logical deduction is simple, it can also be seen that Jia Xu's thinking ability is much higher than Wang Yun's.

Those Dong Zhuo's old troops who had expressed their allegiance to the imperial court saw that no one came to be their new commander-in-chief, and no one came to appease them. Rumors that "the imperial court is going to kill all Xiliang soldiers" began to spread.

In this case, when they saw that someone was making a move, they would naturally join in enthusiastically.Li Jue and Guo Si gathered more than [-] troops along the way, most of which were Dong Zhuo's old troops.Within a few days, the rebel front approached Chang'an City.

……

Chang'an City, the government office of Shangshutai.Wang Yun swept away his previous expression and became worried.He no longer acted arbitrarily, and summoned important officials in the court, as well as warriors and generals whom he didn't like to see on weekdays, to discuss countermeasures.Of course, it also includes Lu Bu who has just been knighted as Marquis of Wen.

Everyone couldn't think of any good strategy to retreat from the enemy.They all looked at each other with wide eyes.It was only when Lu Bu spoke that the calm was broken.

"Today, our army's strength in Chang'an City is only about [-], while the bandit army has more than [-]. If we don't have reinforcements, Chang'an City will be breached sooner or later. So now, we must quickly ask Zhuyanghou Feng Yu sent troops to rescue. This is also what I planned when I was waiting for the Zhu Dong plan."

Wang Yun stroked his beard, as if he hadn't made up his mind to invite Feng Yu to Beijing.Lu Bu cupped his hands and said:

"Grand Master, once the opponent launches a full-scale attack, our army can only defend Chang'an City for a few days. Now, there are only two princes around Chang'an, Feng Yu and Ma Teng. Ma Teng was frustrated a few days ago, and his vitality was seriously injured. They must be unwilling to come. We can only ask Feng Yu to quickly send troops to help."

Someone beside him advised him: "Grand Master, you can only do as Marquis Wen said. If you don't make a quick decision, I'm afraid it will be too late."

Wang Yun closed his eyes and thought for a while, before he said: "Well, according to what you and others said, immediately try to inform Feng Yu and let him lead troops into Beijing to assist in suppressing the rebellion."

……

In the camp of the rebel army, in the tent of the Chinese army.Several people are discussing the battle situation.

Guo Bang first said: "Our army will attack Chang'an City tomorrow. Although Lu Bu's Bingzhou army is brave and tenacious, its strength is only a little more than [-]% of our army. As long as our army takes turns to attack from all sides, the day of breaking the city will be the day of today." Inside."

Jia Xu looked at the map on the table and said, "We can't use all our troops to attack the city. We need to dispatch more than ten thousand soldiers to capture Shangluo County and block Ziwu Valley and Xiegu."

Li Jue asked in surprise, "Why?"

Jia Xu said with a smile: "We have to guard against reinforcements from the surrounding princes to Chang'an. In fact, we are guarding against Feng Yu, Marquis of Zhuyang. Now he is the only one who has the ability to rescue Chang'an."

Li Jue nodded thoughtfully, and then asked: "Old Jia, is this ten thousand guards enough to guard three places? Then Feng Yu is quite powerful, if he really wants to save Chang'an, I'm afraid he will send out a lot of troops."

Jia Xu sneered and said: "These three places are dangerous places, especially Xiegu and Ziwugu. Moreover, in terms of logistics, the mountain roads are difficult to navigate. Although Shangluo has a waterway, it is sailing against the current, and there are many difficulties. More than ten thousand people can defend live."

"Then you see, if he comes, which route is most likely to take?"

Jia Xu replied confidently: "Shangluo, he is most likely to take this shortest route."

Li Jue nodded. He was obviously obedient to Jia Xu, and immediately ordered: "Brother Fan Chou, I will trouble you to go there. Take your troops to Lantian, capture Shangluo County, and then hold on to guard against Feng Yuna." Come and attack."

"The last will obey!"

Then, Li Jue ordered Zhang Ji to divide his troops into two groups to guard Xiegu and Ziwu Valley roads.

In the early morning of the second day, the sky began to drizzle.Thirty thousand Xiliang rebels began to besiege Chang'an City from all directions, and all parts of Lu Bu's army took strict precautions, continuing the battle from early morning to evening.
