The first general of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 96

In fact, it is not difficult to enter the city. After Lu Bu led the Bingzhou army to surrender to Dong Zhuo the next day, Luoyang was already under Dong Zhuo's control.

Dong Zhuo was also very arrogant and conceited. In addition, Lv Bu worshiped him as his adoptive father again, and even thought that Lv Bu had returned to his heart, and even handed over the city guard of Luoyang to Lv Bu.

It has to be said that Lu Bu is not only a brave and invincible general, but he can get in touch with anything related to the military. In just one day, Lu Bu placed Luoyang inside and outside tightly, and restored the people to travel freely.

Under such circumstances, as long as Wei Tao didn't bring all the soldiers into Luoyang, there would be no difficulty at all.

According to Wei Tao's thinking, he took Cai Yong to leave Luoyang, and then divided his troops to let Zhao Yun escort Cai Yong back to Chenliu, and then he rushed back to Youzhou to preside over the raid on Wuhuan.

Once these two things are settled, the world will be fine in a short time.

Although Dong Zhuo was ambitious, he was still very disciplined at this time, and he did not spare any effort to win over scholars. Although the people in the court hated him in a short time, it was not enough to kill him for a while.

But when he saw Cai Yong, he was met by Wang Yun, who had been waiting here early.

Although Wang Yun is old, he has always been very energetic, but after seeing Wang Yun this time, Wei Tao found that although Wang Yun's body is still strong, he always gives people a feeling of lack of energy.

"Zi Yu is here."

Seeing Wei Tao coming, Wang Yun's smile was also dry.

"Meet Uncle Shi, who is Uncle Shi now?"

Although Wei Tao didn't want to ask, but he couldn't help asking. In fact, needless to say, Wei Tao could have guessed that Wang Yun would be like this, probably because of Ding Yuan.

Dong Zhuo was cruel by nature, although at this time he had to act like a virtuous corporal to win people's hearts, but he had already revealed this character.

After Lu Bu offered Ding Yuan's head, Dong Zhuo hung Ding Yuan's head high above the city gate to show the public without hesitation.

In this way, how can we not frighten the princes of the court who talk so much on weekdays?

And a courtier like Wang Yun who was loyal to the Han family was even more annoyed.

What's more, with Lu Bu, the world's most powerful general, taking refuge in him, another thing Dong Zhuo also revealed faintly, which made people like Wang Yun feel ashamed and annoyed.

Dong Zhuo wanted to abolish Liu Bian and make Liu Xie emperor.

The matter of abolishing the establishment was so important that Dong Zhuo wanted to go his own way. To people like Wang Yun, this was really treasonous, so he wanted to expel Dong Zhuo even more, and even had the idea of ​​beheading Dong Zhuo.

But after Ding Yuan died and all the soldiers and horses of Bingzhou returned to Dong Zhuo, Dong Zhuo's strength increased greatly, and the officials in the court could no longer compete with him.

No matter how powerful Wang Yun is, he can only be patient at this time. In this way, Wang Yun's mood is naturally not good.

"Ziyu, originally you were not likely to be the prefect of Changshan. Now that the situation has changed, with Dong Zhuo's character, I am afraid that you will never allow someone who is close to the former general like you to stay in office. The situation is not as good as it is now. How about coming to Luoyang to help me?"

It was Wang Yun who took a fancy to Wei Tao and now also holds military power, but it was Wei Tao's idea.

"Although the captain of Xiyuan has been dismissed, Benchu, Gonglu, and Mengde all have military positions. If Ziyu returns, at least one captain of cavalry is indispensable. Although the name of the captain of Xiyuan is forgotten, it is true. If Dong Zhuo wanted to do something outrageous, no matter how combined the forces of the imperial court and princes, it would definitely be unfeasible."

Wei Tao remained silent.

Maybe Wang Yun is really good at politics, and even later used beauty tricks to separate Dong Zhuo and Lv Bu, so that Lv Bu assassinated Dong Zhuo. It can be seen that Wang Yun's ability in political struggle is indeed not small.

But Wei Tao could feel that Wang Yun still had a naive side.

Yuan Shao, Yuan Shu, and Cao Cao are all princes of one side in the future. Even if the climate is not successful now, it is impossible to drive them at will.

What's more, political power comes from the barrel of a gun. Listening to Wang Yun's tone, a leader like himself still has to be commanded by the court. To put it bluntly: Do they really know how to march and fight?

But Wei Tao knows how Wang Yun has treated him these years.

Even though Wang Yun has a stubborn temper, he is still very good to himself, which is the source of Wei Tao's hesitation.

"What do you think, Ziyu?"

Seeing that Wei Tao remained silent all this time, Wang Yun was also anxious, and his tone couldn't help but became stern.

But this is exactly what made Wei Tao make up his mind.

"I don't agree with what Uncle Shi said. Now that Dong Zhuo is very powerful, if I lead troops into Luoyang and Dong Zhuo orders to come here, then the boy will never follow? And most of my soldiers have been recruited for less than three months. Even if you are strong and healthy, how can you compete with the Xiliang Lions if you haven't finished your military training?"

Wei Tao's expression was calm, but Wang Yun's expression became uglier the more he listened, and finally turned against the case.

"Nonsense! How dare Dong Zhuo dare to use his sword in Luoyang? As long as there are three to five hundred soldiers attacking, he can be captured immediately, and then the old man will write a letter requesting that he be stripped of his official position and let him do nothing!"

Hearing Wang Yun's words, Wei Tao could only smile wryly, and finally knew why Wang Yun had such an idea.

If you think about it, when He Jin was appointed as a general, all the soldiers and horses in the world were under his command, but there was no reason to wantonly mobilize troops in Luoyang. At most, he used the soldiers of the captain of Xiyuan. The real army has never been seen. move.

Even after the eunuch regained power, what He Jin thought was to transfer foreign officials to Luoyang instead of using Luoyang's existing soldiers and horses to act.

Luoyang soldiers and horses should not move lightly, and the wealth of Luoyang soldiers is more near Luoyang. If they go to war with the people of the imperial court, most of them will not follow.

From Wang Yun's point of view, Dong Zhuo was the same. It was possible for those soldiers and horses to scare the important officials of the court, but it was unlikely to use Luoyang soldiers and horses.

But Wang Yun also didn't think about how could there be so many scruples about the arrogant Xiliang soldiers brought by Dong Zhuo, and the Bingzhou soldiers who had just been put under Dong Zhuo's tent?

Wang Yun took it for granted.

"I have met with Dong Zhuo. This person is very arrogant. If something goes wrong, he will definitely act brazenly. It is impossible to rashly lead troops into Luoyang."

Wei Tao also wanted to persuade Wang Yun.

It's a pity that no matter whether Wei Tao was presenting the facts or reasoning, Wang Yun's stubborn temper came up. In Wang Yun's view, as long as Wei Tao didn't send troops to Luoyang to help expel Dong Zhuo, then it would be a big disloyalty and absolutely Not allowed.

"That's enough, I just ask if you should or not?"

In the end, Wang Yun asked directly.

Looking at Wang Yun, he was silent for a while, Wei Tao finally shook his head firmly, he couldn't handle this matter.

After finally gaining a solid foundation, after He Jin died, it would be even more difficult to replace him. How could Wei Tao give up?
"Humph!"

Wang Yun snorted coldly, and went out the door without saying a word.

There is not much regret for Wang Yun's leaving Wei Tao, different ways do not conspire with each other, Wang Yun is dedicated to restoring the prestige of the Han Dynasty, and is loyal to the entire Han Dynasty, Wei Tao has long known this.

However, Wei Tao knew one more thing. With the Yellow Turban Rebellion and now that Dong Zhuoquan is in power, the prestige of the great man will only decline day by day, and the situation of the lords' separatism is imminent.

Whether he dominates one side by himself or assists other princes, he must have his own strength after all. It is impossible for Wei Tao to give up his plan because of Wang Yun alone.

It's just a pity that Wei Tao has always been a little curious about Diao Chan.

In fact, if someone can go to the Three Kingdoms period, they will not be curious about Diao Chan.

The four beauties in ancient China can be listed among them, and their beauty is absolutely unimaginable.

Unfortunately, Wei Tao also lived in Wang Yun's mansion, but he knew that Wang Yun didn't have any adopted daughters, and there was no singer named Diao Chan in the mansion, which made Wei Tao a little puzzled.

Originally, I thought that there would be some chance to see her in the future, but now I can only let go of this thought.

As for Cai Yong, although he was also on good terms with Wang Yun, Cai Yong was more a scholar than an official, and he let Wang Yun go after a few long sighs, but he was preparing to leave Luoyang with Wei Tao.

Now it is indeed as Wei Tao expected, Lv Bu won the trust after taking refuge in Dong Zhuo, that is, he handed over the task of guarding the four gates to Lv Bu.

Among Lv Bu's subordinates, the most trustworthy one was not Wei Xu, Song Xian and others, but Lieutenant General Gao Shun.

Although Wei Tao and others escorted a large number of vehicles, but according to what Gao Shun said earlier, they were not hindered in the slightest when passing through the city gate.

"Ziyu, are you going to return to Chenliu with me?"

After traveling for ten miles, Wei Tao was going to divide half of his troops and ask Zhao Yun to escort Cai Yong back to Chenliu, and then go to Youzhou by himself, but he didn't expect Cai Yong to get out of the car at this time, and then he spoke.

"Although Master Zi asked me to write that letter, it's not just the words in my heart. You and Zhaoji have been married for many years, and now that Zhaoji is an adult, if you don't get married, won't you be messing with others? language? So how can Zhao Ji deal with it?"

Wei Tao was taken aback for a moment, then fell silent.

The ancients got married very early, and now Cai Yan is indeed at the age of marriage, but because Wei Tao is busy with other things, and the concept of the two worlds is different, so Wei Tao himself is not in a hurry.

Wei Tao is not in a hurry, but Cai Yong is. If this delay continues, there will naturally be gossip.

"Father-in-law, Zhao Ji is my love, and I should marry her with great courtesy. But now there is still a war in Youzhou, the big man will do something and not do it, but the foreign race invades my big man, even if it is far away, he will be punished! Do it!"

Even though Cai Yong was a literati, he couldn't help nodding slightly when he heard Wei Tao's words, but Wei Tao always wanted to give an explanation to Cai Yong, the old man, so he said it now.

"When it's over here, I am the prefect of Changshan, and I must give a great gift to welcome Miss."
