The wind stopped, and heavy snow like goose feathers kept falling from the sky.
Looking around, the whole world turned into a world of white goose feathers.
As night fell, Linli City was a busy and lively scene.
Every household in the city opened its doors and came out to applaud and cry with joy on the streets.
When Liu Cheng rode a horse and led a large group of people into the city, they walked through the city.
On the street, the cheerful people did not feel the cold at all.
They knelt in front of their houses and kowtowed to the passing Northern Army soldiers.
Liu Cheng looked at these ragged and worn-out people who had not had a good meal or a good sleep for many days and felt filled with emotion.
He could see that Yang Feng and his gang of bandits were really harmful to this place.
Not small, otherwise these people would not show such awe and welcome to the imperial army.
It was really difficult for him to understand that many people in later generations called the White Wave Army or the Yellow Turban Army, which caused huge damage to social order, production and civilization, the peasant uprising army.
Is it true that any army that opposes the government is an insurrectionary army?
If we say that the feudal class has a negative influence on the people The rule of the Communist Party of China is bloody, cruel and violent, but this kind of military organization that kills everyone on sight, is cruel and has no rules to speak of, and coerces the majority of the people and uses innocent people as human shields and expendables is nothing like this.
Good bird.
What does it mean to be a rebel army?
You have to talk about the word righteousness.
Is it considered righteousness to harm the people like this?
As Zhang Liao led troops to take over the city defense and Yang Ru led troops to take over the surrendered prisoners, order in the city had been restored.
However, there had been internal strife and firefights in the city, and there were corpses and bandit wounded everywhere in the city.
Liu Cheng I had given the order before leading the troops into the city, In the official name, people were sent into the city to play gongs and drums, and they recruited people to clean up corpses and clean the streets.
They not only took care of the meals, but also gave them ten copper coins and several kilograms of grain.
This instantly shortened the distance between them and the people in the city, and they also No longer fear and be hostile to the imperial army.
When Liu Cheng walked into the county government office, there was a big brazier in the middle of the lobby of the county government office.
The firewood in the brazier was burning.
The cold air in the lobby had been driven out.
When he walked into the lobby, he felt very hot and warm immediately.
Liu Cheng walked to the brazier and stretched out his hands to warm himself.
He rubbed his hands and looked at the lobby.
It was obvious that he had cleaned it before he walked in, because there were still traces of damage by the bandit leaders.
Jia Xu quickly walked into the lobby and saw Liu Cheng coming to him and handing him a letter, saying: "My lord, Zhang Ji from the capital sent someone to deliver a letter.
The letter said that Huangfu Song and Zhang Wen joined forces to contradict Dong Zhuo at the court meeting.
Dong Zhuo was furious and threw the two of them into prison, saying that he would choose a day to be executed.
Huangfu Song’s son Huangfu Jianshou had an old relationship with Dong Zhuo and went to Dong Zhuo’s house to cry.
After praying for a long time, Huangfu Song's life was saved, but his position as Taiwei was not saved.
Dong Zhuo went directly to Beigong to see the emperor.
The emperor was timid about Dong Zhuo and did not dare to disobey him, so he had to issue an order to exempt him.
Huangfu Song's position as Taiwei, but Zhang Wen's fate was not so good.
The next day, Dong Zhuo found an excuse and killed him."
After saying this, he stretched out his hand to warm himself over the brazier.
Liu Cheng opened the letter and read it quickly.
In addition to what Jia Xu said, Zhang Ji said that it roughly described the situation in the court.
Now the ministers in the court hated Dong Zhuo even more, but they didn't express it.
After coming out, many people already understood that openly opposing Dong Zhuo would never end well.
Therefore, no matter what Dong Zhuo wanted to do, the court ministers and officials almost unanimously agreed and supported him, and Dong Zhuo became even more complacent.
Those court ministers treated Dong Zhuo in one way on the surface and another secretly.

They actively planned to eradicate Dong Zhuo.
Almost all of those court ministers and officials came from aristocratic families.
How could there not be a few loyal domestic slaves and dead men in the family?
As a result, assassinations against Dong Zhuo took place one after another.
In just ten days, Dong Zhuo was assassinated eight times, and one day he was even assassinated three times in a row.
Now Dong Zhuo was really angry.
He couldn't find out who had done it for a while, so he ordered those court ministers and officials he disliked and those he thought were hostile to him to be arrested and killed.
It can be said that a large amount of white terror was created in Luoyang City, which made everyone in the imperial court feel in danger.
Many people even dared not go to court and Ying Mao, and many people left without their titles, even no longer serving as officials.
Liu Cheng put away the letter and put it in his arms.
He walked to the map hanging on the wall next to him and folded his arms to check the map.
While looking at it, he asked: "Wenhe, do you think that if the princes of Guandong rebelled, given the current situation of the imperial court?
Can the strength put down the rebellion in a short time?"
Jia Xu didn't look back and said with a smile: "How is it possible, my lord?
You must know that the population and territory of the Guandong region accounted for more than 70% of the entire Han Dynasty, excluding Youzhou Mu, Liu Yu and Yi who were members of the Han clan.
Except for Liu Yan, the state pastor, they may not rebel.
Jizhou, Bingzhou, Yanzhou, Xuzhou, Yuzhou, Yangzhou, Qingzhou, and Jingzhou all belong to Guandong, and these The relationship between the princes and the court ministers is complicated and inextricably linked.
Some of Dong Zhuo's cruel behaviors have deeply damaged their interests.
How can they let it go?
Dong Zhuo has no foundation in the government and the public, even if he doesn't do these things Those nobles will not accept him, let alone be willing to let him drive him.
It will be a matter of time to oppose him and oust him sooner or later."
Liu Cheng walked around in front of the map with his arms folded, but his eyes never left the map.
He said slowly: "I don't know how long this snow will last, and I don't know how long the war to suppress the Baibo Army will last.
If Kanto The princes are here When we suppressed the Baibo Army and launched a rebellion, Dong Zhuo's tens of thousands of soldiers and horses in the capital were still too few.
If he could not withstand the attack of the Kwantung princes, and the emperor and the royal family were captured by the Kwantung princes, there would be big trouble.
It seems , we still need to add some strength to Dong Zhuo.
Dong Zhuo's full strength in the capital is only 50,000.
This also includes the Xiyuan Army, which has not experienced much war, and the Xiyuan Army has now been split into 708 soldiers.
The battle strength has declined even more.
You ask, is there any way for Dong Zhuo to transfer the troops of Li Jue and Guo Si stationed in the Guanzhong area to Luoyang to strengthen the force?
In this way, we can also do it early in the Guanzhong area. deploy" After hearing this, Jia Xu turned around and walked over, stopped beside Liu Cheng and looked at the map.
He stretched out his hand to stroke his beard, his eyes suddenly lit up, and he said: "This is not difficult at all.
When the heavy snow stops, our army will immediately mobilize its troops."
Go west, Entering Shangdang through Huguan, we will only drive away the bandits but not attack them.
After driving them out of Shangdang, the Lord will lead the army north to Taiyuan, wipe out the bandits in Taiyuan in one fell swoop, and lay secrets in Shangdang and Taiyuan. son , if the princes of Guandong rebelled, the secret hidden by the lord could control Bingzhou in one fell swoop when the local county soldiers left.
In this way, Bingzhou would only obey the lord, and then the lord would send his troops south.
To the east of Hedong, drive away the Baibo Army.
The Baibo Army will either cross the river to the west to have a fight with Niu Fu in Shaanxi, or continue south to fight against the Yellow River.
Once the main force of the Baibo Army reaches the north bank of the Yellow River, it will threaten the safety of the capital. , if the Yellow River freezes, they are very likely to invade Hongnong County, which will cut off Dong Zhuo's retreat.
Dong Zhuo must mobilize troops to guard Hongnong.
The soldiers and horses of the capital cannot be mobilized easily.
Only Li Jue and Guo Si The troops can be transferred.
Once Li Jue and Guo Si's troops are transferred to Hongnong County, they cannot be transferred back easily, because at that time I am afraid that the princes of Guandong will be unable to hold on.
But if Dong Zhuo wants to transfer Li Jue and Guo Si leave the customs , he will definitely make some arrangements and arrangements.
If he cannot transfer Xu Rong and Zhao Yun, he will definitely attack Jingzhao Yin Gaixun.

He only needs to transfer Gaixun and arrange another one of his people to guard Chang'an.
With Chang'an's five thousand The soldiers and horses can be more than enough for defense, but the impact is not big.
It takes a while for a new official to take office, and this period of time is enough for the lord to find a way to control the five thousand soldiers and horses and place his own people in Jingzhao Mansion and Chang'an County."
After Liu Cheng heard Jia Xu's plan, he clapped his hands and said with a smile: "That's wonderful.
Let's go and call Wang Yue."
"promise" After a while, Wang Yue walked in with his sword pressed, clasped his fists and said, "My lord, you are looking for me."
Liu Cheng turned around and said: "General Wang, immediately send capable and absolutely reliable personnel to Chang'an to contact the relevant officials of Jingzhao Mansion and Chang'an County Government on behalf of the General.
For such a long time, Dong Zhuo has not made any inquiries about Jingzhao Mansion.
Taking action against Chang'an County does not mean that he will not Yes, if Dong Zhuo wants to make his retreat safe enough, he will definitely not let go of the control of Jingzhao Mansion.
Yin Gaixun of Jingzhao Mansion is more than loyal to the court, but not flexible enough.
Dong Zhuo will definitely not forget him, and it will be sooner or later to transfer him.
Now is the time for them to choose their side."
After saying that, Liu Cheng took off a hanging jade pendant from his waist belt and handed it over and said: "Take this as a token and give it to those who go to Chang'an.
Remember to return it after using it."
Military generals above the general level in the Han Dynasty had a special official certificate, which was the general's jade pendant.
It represented the identity and official position of a military general.
It had the same function as the identity plate of an ordinary soldier.
Only military generals were eligible for this kind of jade pendant.
Wearing it depends on the pattern and jade material on the jade pendant, which also represents the identity and military position of different generals.
The higher the level of the general, the more expensive the material of the jade pendant he wears.
"Nuo" Wang Yue agreed, took the jade pendant with both hands and stepped back.
Liu Cheng sent someone to call Zhao Rui again and said: "Immediately send someone to Chang'an to contact Chang'an's garrison, the Fifth Army Commander of the Qing Dynasty and the Lieutenant Wei Jie of the Breaking Enemy School.
I need their help.
If If you have any difficulties, you can contact Xu Rong and Zhao Yun and obtain their assistance.
I would also like to trouble you to write a letter to them respectively for my general."
"I will do my best."
Jia Xu immediately walked to the copywriting office nearby and quickly wrote two letters and handed them to Zhao Rui.
Zhao Rui took the letter and hugged Liu Cheng before leaving
