But it was said that Dong Zhuo, the former general, the Marquis of Aoxiang, and the governor of Xiliang, had no merit during the Yellow Turban Rebellion and was often defeated in battles.
The court would discuss a crime against him.
He spent a lot of gold and silver to bribe the ten ministers, and he was able to get away.
He also made friends with many officials in the court, and he was able to get a few names and return to Liangzhou.
After returning to Liangzhou, he didn't know whether it was due to luck or something, but he had a very capable counselor under his command, who was also his son-in-law; he also found a fierce general in the army.
With these two people, especially his counselors, it didn't take long for him to establish a foothold in Liangzhou again.
Now he has an army of 200,000, among which the Xiliang Iron Cavalry is the most outstanding.
In the hall of Dong Zhuo's mansion Dong Zhuo sat in the middle hall and looked at the civil and military officials sitting on the left and right below.
He felt very complacent in his heart.
He never thought that he would have such a day.
He would have soldiers, generals and generals under his command.
A counselor who makes plans.
"Everyone, now Yuan Shao has sent a secret message, asking me to lead troops to the capital to assist him.
Previously, he excused himself by saying that there was no edict and it was inconvenient for him to lead his troops to the capital.
But early this morning, He Jin sent someone to send an edict to ask for it.
I led my troops to the capital to eradicate the ten permanent servants; what should I do?"
Dong Zhuo asked.
Although he was asking for everyone's opinions, his eyes were directed at the thin but elegant scribe sitting below him on his left.
But when I caught a glimpse of a chubby, faceless man behind the scribe who was still eating and drinking at this important meeting, I frowned, but then relaxed and didn't scold him.
Everyone in the hall did not find it strange that Dong Zhuo looked at the scribe.
They all knew that Dong Zhuo's current achievements were all due to the advice given by the scribe who seemed to be able to kill him with one punch.
As for the man behind the scribe, they pretended not to have seen it and had become accustomed to it.
The man was recommended by the scribe.
He only knew how to eat and drink and was timid.
However, the scribe had been protecting that man.
Everyone ignored him, otherwise someone else would have been thrown out of the mansion instead of being beaten to death.
"Wen He, pay attention."
The scribe noticed the eyes of everyone, as if he didn't see Dong Zhuo wanting him to answer, and turned to the people eating and drinking.
Hearing this, the man who was eating and drinking raised his head, grinned, raised his right hand, wiped his mouth with his sleeve, then sat down on his knees and stopped eating or drinking.
The scribe also felt very helpless towards his friend.
Others didn't know it, but he knew his friend's ability, but he was just good at hiding it.
You must know that Dong Zhuo could achieve such achievements, and his friend also had a lot of contribution.
"Ahem, Wenyou, what do you think?"
Seeing this, Dong Zhuo coughed and asked.
Those two people were Dong Zhuo's son-in-law Li Ru, Li Wenyou, and Li Ru's good friend Jia Xu and Jia Wenhe.
"My lord, this matter is not urgent.
Yuan Shao sent a secret letter because he wanted my lord to go to the capital to suppress He Jin so that they could regain control of the power in the court; and He Jin sent a secret edict because he really wanted to get rid of the ten permanent servants.
But I didn’t expect that Yuan Shao would secretly set him up.”
Li Ru stood up and continued: "Yuan Shao and He Jin both want to use the power of the lord, and now there is a secret edict coming, so we might as well take advantage of the plan and lead the troops to the capital, but stand still and sit on the mountain to watch the tigers fight.
And if If the lord leads his troops to the capital, it will definitely arouse the fear of the ten permanent servants.
They will not sit still and wait for death.
They will definitely resist.
This is the opportunity I have been waiting for."
Hearing this, everyone's eyes gleamed, and it was obvious that they knew the meaning of Li Ru's words.
The same goes for Dong Zhuo, otherwise he would not have recruited an army of 200,000 without restraint.

The Southern Huns and Qiang people in the north of Liangzhou were also frightened by him and did not dare to step across the border.
As his power grew, his ambitions also began to grow.
If he hadn't had an excuse, he would have brought his troops to the capital long ago.
Why can those people stay in the prosperous Luoyang City to enjoy and control the power?
In this barren land of Liangzhou "Wen You thinks we should lead our troops to Beijing," Dong Zhuo asked.
Li Ru also had selfish motives.
He wanted to change this situation.
Although Dong Zhuo had no strategy, it would be enough if he could obey him, not to mention the help of his good friend Jia Xu.
He nodded and said: "Yes, this is a good time to lead troops to the capital.
However, although He Jin's secret edict and Yuan Shao's secret letter are there, many of them are not aboveboard and must not be recognized.
Why not send someone to the table?
, it is justifiable and great things can be accomplished.”
Dong Zhuo was overjoyed and looked at the others and said, "What do you think?"
"We will second the proposal" everyone stood up and said.
Dong Zhuo did not continue to hesitate, not to mention that as his power gradually increased, different ambitions emerged in his heart.
He mobilized his troops and marched towards Luoyang one after another, but he had no intention of abandoning Liangzhou and letting his other son-in-law, Zhonglang, Niu Fu, guard the land of Shaanxi.
Write down the memorial table, which briefly says: I have heard that the chaos and rebellion in the world continues because Zhang Rang, a regular servant of Huangmen, and others are insulting Tianchang.
I heard that Yang Decoction is better to stop the boil than to remove the sputum; although ulcers are painful, it is worse than nourishing the poison.
I dare to ring the bells and drums to enter Luoyang, please remove Zhang Rang and others.
The country is very fortunate and the world is very fortunate Dong Zhuo looked at the memorial he had written and felt very satisfied.
It was the first time that he felt that his literary talent was so good.
With a smile on his face, he handed the memorial to the courier and asked it to be quickly sent to Luoyang.
After sending away the memorial, Dong Zhuo arranged things in Liangzhou, and then led Li Ru, Jia Xu, Li Jue, Guo Si, Zhang Ji, Fan Chou and others to raise 200,000 troops without hiding anything.
Heading towards Luoyang.
The intention was so obvious that there was no need to guess at all and he headed straight to Luoyang.
However, when Dong Zhuo took action, Ding Yuan, who was in Bingzhou next to Liangzhou, also led an army of 50,000 to Luoyang.
Because of this incident, a general thought that he could not abandon the people of Bingzhou and rush to Luoyang at this time, so he had a big quarrel with Ding Yuan.
In the end, he could only lead his troops to follow Ding Yuan to Luoyang angrily, and no longer Help the people of Bingzhou to resist the Xiongnu invasion.
For a time, everyone in the Central Plains turned their attention to Luoyang again.
Except for these two people who led troops to Beijing, the rest of the people who received the secret edict did not make any move.
They all stood still, as if they had not received the secret edict, and stayed safely on their own territory, waiting for things to develop.
However, everyone also knew that with Dong Zhuo and Ding Yuan leading their troops to Beijing, chaos was about to break out in Luoyang again.
They also knew that this was a battle in the court, so they ignored He Jin's secret edict and stayed out of the matter, not wanting to participate in such a fight.
