The Power of the Three Kingdoms at the End of the Han Dynasty and the Imperial Power of the Han Dyna

Jinyang.

The weather is sunny today and the scenery is beautiful everywhere.

But for the envoys from Chang'an, the winter is colder than before.

When he came to Jinyang and visited the King of Hejian, he was told that the King of Hejian was not in Jinyang but in Jizhou. He felt numb and said, "The last trace of hope is gone."

The Chang'an nobles had heard about Liu Han's treatment of the nobles who had helped Dong Zhuo. Regardless of whether they voluntarily or not, they had to be punished. Therefore, they really didn't want Liu Han to go to Chang'an to rescue King Qin, but the situation had deteriorated to the extreme. Bad look, they have no choice

The situation in Chang'an was out of control. Dong Zhuo's entire family was killed. From the elderly to the children, no matter men, women, old or young, even the dogs they raised had to be stabbed. In order to prevent all harm, the eggs were shaken away, and the earthworms in the mansion They all had to chop with their swords vertically, and then a fire broke out and burned Dong's mansion completely, fearing that Dong Zhuo would come back to life.

In addition to attacking Dong Zhuo's relatives, all the scholar-bureaucrats who flattered Dong Zhuo were quickly killed. Such irrational and crazy revenge made Dong Zhuo's direct relatives who held military power outside fear of being implicated.

If it were Liu Han, he would never let the nobles do this. The Chang'an nobles are strong on the outside but weak on the inside. With the Chang'an garrison and the three or two big cats under Lu Bu, there is no way they can be the opponent of the Xiliang army. Normal people will choose one. Method: Only kill Dong Zhuo and ignore the rest; appease the morale of the army and use it for your own use.The best way is to send someone who has enough prestige, can be trusted by the court, and is acceptable to the Liangzhou soldiers to lead the Liangzhou army.

Lu Bu was definitely not good enough. He didn't have enough prestige. He was Dong Zhuo's murderer and a native of Bingzhou. The Liangzhou soldiers looked down upon him and would even swarm him to kill him.

There are candidates, Duan Jiong or Huangfu Song. If the original historical direction is followed, Duan Jiong would have been dead long ago, but Huangfu Song is still alive. He is the best choice to command the Liangzhou Army.

But now, Duan Jue is alive and Huangfu Song is dead. No one under Wang Yun can suppress the Xiliang arrogant generals, so Wang Yun chose a more extreme method - disarming the Xiliang army.

In the blame game again and again, the key issue of how to deal with Dong Zhuo's trilogy was postponed indefinitely. However, at this time, Li Ru took action.

Under the instigation of Li Ru, Dong Zhuo's old troops counterattacked towards Chang'an. Li Jue and Guo Bang in the east, Fan Chou and Zhang Ji in the west, and Li Meng, Wang Fang and others who had been dispersed by Niu Fu's men all led their troops to attack. Chang'an, ask Wang Yun for an explanation.

Wang Yun originally said that after Dong Zhuo was killed, these old troops were in disarray, but he did not expect that when this group of people arrived outside Chang'an City, there were more than [-] people.

Wang Yun knew that because of his carelessness, things began to get out of control. Although Chang'an City was strong and strong, it could not withstand the strong attack of 10,000+ people. At the critical moment, Wang Yun first asked Lu Bu to go out to fight, but Lu Bu returned defeated. , not only Li Su died, but the soldiers and horses were also lost.

The reason was that Yang Ding who was following Lu Bu was from Liangzhou, and there were many Liangzhou soldiers in the city. Lu Bu was about to fight Li Jue, but he didn't expect that Yang Ding led his troops to rebel and stabbed Li Su in the back on the spot. He not only killed Li Su but also wounded Li Su. After defeating Lu Bu, the morale of the Liangzhou army was greatly boosted.

Lu Bu was defeated and lost his troops, which made things worse for the Chang'an gentry. Wang Yun had no choice but to send an envoy to ask for help. The prince closest to Chang'an was Liu Han, the king of Hejian.

The envoy spent eight days rushing to Jinyang, but was told that the King of Hejian was in Jizhou to suppress the rebel party, and there was nothing he could do about Chang'an.

If everyone in Chang'an City is united, it will not be a problem to defend Chang'an City for a year and a half, but the people in Chang'an City are not unified.

When Li Jue, Guo Si and others arrived at Chang'an City, Li Ru rode up and said, "Wang Situ, please come out and answer me!"

Looking at the chaos below, Wang Yun was frightened. He had just enjoyed the taste of power, but how long had it passed before he was about to be liquidated?

Wang Yun straightened his clothes, but the pride of a nobleman did not allow him to bow to the reckless man from Xiliang, "I am Wang Yun, Li Wenyou, long time no see."

Li Ru said: "Yes, old man, long time no see. Let me ask you, what is the prime minister's crime?"

Wang Yun laughed loudly: "Hahaha, Li Wenyou, don't you want to laugh me to death? Dong Zhuo was cruel and ruthless, killing loyal people, sleeping in the palace at night, raping and plundering. His crimes are so heinous that it's too numerous to describe. What's my crime?"

Li Ru sneered and said, "According to Han law, if the prime minister is guilty, he will be killed in broad daylight without the approval of your majesty, the court, or the people of the world. Isn't that in the law of the Han Dynasty?" "Kill him." That’s it, why would you kill the Prime Minister’s entire family without an imperial edict?”

"Even if all these are correct, the Prime Minister is dead and you still whip his corpse in broad daylight and the hearts of the people are not ancient. Where is the dignity of the Prime Minister? Where is the justice of heaven?"

After Li Ru asked these questions, Wang Yun was speechless for a moment. He did plan to kill Dong Zhuo according to the imperial edict, and what he did afterwards was indeed illegal. No matter how cruel and unkind Dong Zhuo was, he was still recognized by the imperial court as the prime minister of the Han Dynasty. This is an indisputable fact.

But the prime minister of the Han Dynasty died so miserably, even if he was Dong Zhuo.

Li Ru sneered, using his spear to attack his shield, you relied on the imperial edict to kill the prime minister, then I will ask you what crime your prime minister committed to let you kill like this.

Wang Yun couldn't answer, and neither could the ministers.

Li Ru: "Well, I knew you couldn't answer. You are a bunch of villains who only know how to fight for power. You are more hypocritical and disgusting than the princes of Guandong."

After saying that, Li Ru looked at Li Jue behind him. Of course, Li Jue understood what Li Ru meant and waved his hand: "Attack the city!"

Since they don't give us a way to survive, it's impossible for us to give them a way to survive. If we can really capture Chang'an and "serve the country to rectify the world", it will be exciting to think about it.

No matter how strong the city is, it cannot be defended under the huge disadvantage of numbers. What's more, the defenders are not united and have little fighting spirit. However, the Xiliang army below is very fierce and they really don't want to die.

On the first day, with the generous reward promised by the powerful nobles in the city, the Xiliang army outside the city did not attack.

The Xiliang army lacked offensive weapons and could not attack the city. During the confrontation between the two sides, there was a heroic episode. Although Lu Bu was injured, he still challenged Guo Si for a duel.

Guo Si lived up to expectations and accepted the battle, and then lived up to expectations and was almost killed by Lu Bu. Guo Si survived because he was wearing heavy armor and was rescued by his men.

The same goes for the second day.

By the seventh day, the city was already crumbling, and the army inside the city suffered heavy casualties, although the Xiliang army outside the city suffered heavy losses.

Strong fortresses are often breached from within, not to mention the crumbling Chang'an City.

On the eighth day, the Yizhou soldiers under Lu Bu rebelled. The rebels led the Xiliang army into the city and started a street fight with Lu Bu.

That's right, it's Lu Bu's subordinates again who fail more than succeed.

Without Dong Zhuo's restraint, the Xiliang soldiers unleashed their rebellion. Li Jue and others looted the city, causing countless casualties among the people and officials. Taichang Zhongfu, Taipu Lu Xu, Dahonglu, Zhou Huan, Chengmen Colonel Cui Lie and Yueqi Colonel Wang Qi died in battle.

And Lu Bu ran away!

Lu Bu finally led hundreds of cavalry, hung Dong Zhuo's head on the saddle, and broke out of Wuguan.

It can only be said that there seems to be a curse in Chang'an. Every 200 years, there will be a catastrophe. Xiang Yu, Chimei, and Li Jue will be slaughtered every 200 years.

And Wang Yun, as the culprit of this incident, will inevitably become the target of everyone's venting. Not only Wang Yun, but also Li Jue also followed the example of the Chang'an gentry. His eldest son, Shizhong Wang Gai, second son Wang Jing, Wang Ding, and more than ten members of the clan all He was killed, and only his brothers Wang Chen and Wang Ling escaped by climbing over the wall.
