Chapter 154 Donglai Thief Change
In 190 AD, on the fifth day of the first lunar month of the first lunar year of the Han Dynasty, Guandong Prefecture and County still raised an army to attack Dong Zhuo.
Just as He Bai was carrying out the Beihai Restoration Project, Cao Cao failed to assassinate Dong Zhuo in October, and fled to Chenliu in November. He raised the Yi soldiers on the territory of Chenliu's prefect Zhang Miao, and connected with the prefects who were familiar with each other, led by Yuan Shao. Finally, he raised the banner of attacking Dong Zhuo on the fifth day of the first lunar month.
Because Dong Zhuo was very successful in this life and was almost suppressed by anyone, he successfully seized the power of the court, so his arrogance was exposed without any hiding. He stayed in the dragon bed at night, raped the palace maids, killed wrong officials, avenged personal revenge, robbed the people as military expenses, monopolized the court, and acted rampantly in September. All of them were done, which disappointed Cao Cao and assassinated Dong Zhuo, but unfortunately failed.
When King Donglai passed by Beihai, they all told He Bai about these things. The Queen Mother of King Donglai was quite a bit resentful of Yuan Wei's Yuan family, so why was it suppressed by Dong Zhuo in such a way that it was suppressed by Dong Zhuo. Lu Zhi was even more worried about the future of the Han Dynasty. With Dong Zhuo in Beijing to commit tyranny, it would definitely make things worse for the Han Dynasty, which had already reduced its authority. Therefore, even though he admired He Bai, who recommended Dong Zhuo as prime minister, he was full of complaints.
But after all, it was He Bai who calmed down the tyrannical Dong Zhuo from the chaotic government at that time and rescued the former emperor, King Donglai, which was more than a waste of time. I just hope that He Bai could try to get rid of Dong Zhuo again, so as to give the world a bright world.
In December, Cao Cao also had a long letter to talk about the Luoyang incident and listed Dong Zhuo's tyrannical behavior in the capital one by one. He also said that although Dong Zhuo had great ambitions, he had no talent, nor could he stabilize the world. He was really helpless and did not succeed. He did not succeed. Cao Cao then prepared to issue a forgery imperial edict and called on the prefects and prefects of all prefectures and counties in the world to gather righteous troops to correct the world and fight against the riot Dong Zhuo together. He hoped that He Bai could respond to this call.
He Bai didn't know whether the world he had traveled was an era in history or an era in the same way as the Romance of the Three Kingdoms. Because of the different eras, the length of the troops sent were different, it was difficult to make a decision for a while. Therefore, although he agreed to the response call, he was unable to take action.
It was not until the fifth day of the first lunar month when Yuan Shao held several princes at the Sour Jujube Conference that Gongsun Zan and Tao Qian sent an envoy to invite him to the alliance. He Bai felt that he was probably wearing a similar era of the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, because in history, neither of these two families participated in the alliance. The project of Restoration was over at this time, and He Bai immediately summoned all the major civil officials under his command to discuss the issue of sending troops to the alliance.
After seeing the invitation letter from Cao Cao, Gongsun Zan and Tao Qian, Zheng Xuan couldn't help but sigh and said, "I saw that the North Sea is thriving, but I was unexpectedly in chaos in the world. Even though Dong Zhuo was tyrannical, he was still a legitimate prime minister in the court. Yuan Benchu was in the wrong, and this was the majesty of the court. Even if he drove away and killed the tyrannical Dong Zhuo, it was difficult for him to not be able to come to the local area to raise troops and attack the ruling Yuan family."
As soon as Zheng Xuan finished speaking, the Western Supervisor Shiyi laughed and bowed and said, "Since the two emperors Huanling, the majesty of the court has gradually been lost. In the first year of Zhongping, there were even more Yellow Turban thieves in the country. Although the thieves were suppressed, there were countless rebels related to the Yellow Turban. Everyone knows that the Han Dynasty is about to perish, but I don't know when it will be."
"Now that Yuan Benchu first provoked the disaster of local county magistrates against the central government, which was a sign of great chaos in the world. In my opinion, after I challenge Dong, it must be the time when the local government and the courts compete with each other. Now there is a prime minister who is wise and generous, benevolent and righteous, and loves the people. He is also majestic and outstanding, and has a kingly demeanor. Now he is more united in the hearts of the people of Beihai. It is the time when the former governor of Qingzhou was dismissed for his position because of the King of Beihai. Taking advantage of the opportunity that the new governor has not yet arrived, it is the time when the capture of Qingzhou, separating one side and performing kingly affairs, and honoring the south... "
"It is Ziyu who wants to trap the prime minister in a state of disloyalty and unrighteous manner." Peng Yu angrily rebuked: "The prime minister has only been in office for three years and has been in office as the Prime Minister of the North Sea. It can be seen that the Han Dynasty has the grace of knowing the Prime Minister. As the prime minister in the court, the prime minister should have the responsibility to calm the people and fight against the thieves and safeguard the power and responsibility of the Han Dynasty. If Ziyu did not advise the prime minister to keep his duties, he would persuade the prime minister to follow the example of the thieves and cause chaos. What is his intention?"
Shi Yi said disdainfully: "The Yuan family of Runan, four generations and three kings, has received the kindness of the Han Dynasty. Even he has carried out practical things to seize power under the banner of upholding justice and fighting the thieves and the people, not to mention the prime minister. Besides, you teach the prime minister to keep your duties, but how can you know that others cannot seize the world? In this great struggle, if you fall behind, you will fall behind step by step. When the world is in the hands of others, what do you want the prime minister to guard the lonely land of the North Sea? Are you waiting to surrender to others?"
"Even if we put it another way, with the benevolence, righteousness and virtue of the prime minister, there should be a greater place to display his talents. If today's chaos is the next generation, it should be the time when the prime minister is striving to promote righteous troops and protect millions of people in Qingzhou."
Peng Yu was about to angrily scold him again, and He Bai had to knock on the case and shouted: "Today I am looking for everyone to come, and it is for my brother-in-law. Cao Mengde and Tao Gongzu invited me to the Sour Jujube Alliance to challenge Dong. But you are talking about where you are. It's Ziyu, don't say anything. The new Qingzhou governor is on the way to take office. And I, He Tianming, is only twenty-five years old, and I have just been a prime minister of Beihai for only three months. However, my talent is shallow and my virtue is even shallow. How can I supervise the land of the old Qi? Don't talk nonsense in the future."
"Mr. Kang Cheng said before that Yuan Shao raised troops to attack Dong Zhuo and used local governments to fight against the central government, which was a major event of cracking down on the majesty of the court and chasing national order. I think it was because I didn't want us to respond to Yuan Shao's alliance. I wonder if you have any other statements?"
He Bai's question made everyone fall into silence. Dong Zhuo abused the young master in the court, bullied the young master, and was self-righteous, which could be said to harm the country and the people. If he sits silent, he might one day harm the Beihai. Besides, Dong Zhuo was personally promoted to the position of prime minister, and He Bai has the responsibility to pull him down no matter what.
However, responding to Yuan Shao's alliance, there would be no trace of majestic blow to the Han Dynasty. If we do not respond to the matter of Dong, would God still drop thunder and kill Dong Zhuo? It should be noted that according to He Bai's statement, God is ruthless and will not care about the human affairs of the world. People still need to deal with the worldly affairs.
In the end, Zheng Xuan said first: "The two ministers are more inferior. It seems that the prime minister still has to send troops to join forces with Yuan Benchu to challenge Dong."
Everyone nodded in agreement after hearing this, and the majesty of the court can be slowly restored in the future. However, the ruling ministers of the court will cause trouble to the government and harm the world, so they need to be removed immediately. Otherwise, sooner or later, the local government will part ways with the court due to dissatisfaction.
After the decision to send troops was made, He Bai began to distribute work, preparing money, grain, carriages, and affairs with the military, civilians and men. There was still a large amount of these materials in the National Development Project, and they would be together as long as they were gathered together. The civilians recruited an average of 900 people per county, resulting in a total of 15,000 people. As for those who stayed in Beihai in charge of political affairs, He Bai handed over to Zhang Zhao, who already had the intention of belonging, and regarded him as the Beihai Chief and took charge of Beihai.
In terms of the army used, the 5,000 troops from the Xiyuan army were the main force. The more than 5,000 soldiers and civilians in Luoyang were trained in Beihai for more than three months, and after more than three months of training in Beihai, He Bai had sent envoys to Changshan, Zhongshan summoned soldiers, and ordered Fu Xing to lead 3,000 soldiers to join. In addition, the 3,000 troops in Beihai Kingdom could be dispatched in total.
Just as He Bai was dispatching troops, an envoy sent by King Liu Bian of Donglai came to ask for help, saying that the Yellow Turban thief Zhang Rao and Guan Hai's troops were attacking the Huangxian County Town, the county seat of Donglai.
He Bai was shocked and rescued Donglai King Liu Bian from Luoyang City and placed it in Donglai Kingdom on the side of Beihai Kingdom. His purpose was to use it as a casual boy. In one day in the future, if he could not successfully seize Emperor Xian of Han and took the emperor to command the princes, he might use him to fight against Emperor Xian of Han, how could he allow him to be destroyed by the Yellow Turban thieves?
He Bai then ordered his troops to gather and asked the reason for the messenger's affairs. It turned out that after the King of Donglai settled in November last year, Lu Zhi, the prince of Donglai, heard that there were two Yellow Turban thieves in the country in Lu Township, Dangli County, and the number was about 70,000. Lu Zhi was afraid that the Yellow Turbans would be big, so he organized his army and prepared to attack. Because the soldiers of Donglai County had not been trained for a long time, they were afraid that they would not be able to go to the battlefield, so they could not make a journey for a while.
In December, the Yellow Turban thieves Zhang Rao and Guan Hai heard about Lu Zhi's military training in the county, and knew that they were coming for themselves. So he took the initiative to offer surrender to King Liu Bin of Donglai, hoping to surrender to him and become generals. However, the prince of Donglai Lu Zhi thought that the two of them had surrendered for no reason before they fought, and there must be conspiracy among them. So he tried his best to prevent King Donglai from surrendering, and he stepped up time to train soldiers to prepare for city defense, and prevent the two from rioting.
It was not until the third day of the first lunar month after the next year that the training of the Donglai County soldiers ended and Lu Zhi believed that the county soldiers were already in use, so he decided to take the initiative to attack Zhang Rao and the thieves of Guan Hai's troops. Lu Zhi was full of confidence in this battle. He thought that the hundreds of thousands of elite Jizhou Yellow Turbans led by Zhang Jiao were suppressed by him with a few enemies, so He Bai from Beihai sent troops to help him.
On the seventh day of the first lunar month, Lu Zhi led his troops to fight with Zhang Rao and Guan Hai in Ye County. Lu Zhi defeated tens of thousands of Yellow Turbans with 4,000 troops and horses, and defeated tens of thousands of Yellow Turbans in three battles and three victory, and directly suppressed Zhang Rao in Dangli City. Just when Lu Zhi was in full swing, on the tenth day of the first lunar month, he suddenly heard that Guan Hai led more than 10,000 elite Yellow Turban thieves to take a small path and headed straight to Huang County. At this time, he had passed Xian County, only a few dozen miles away from Huang County.
Lu Zhi was shocked and quietly withdrew his troops to Huang County to rescue him. Zhang Rao, who received the news the next day, immediately led all the Yellow Turban thieves to chase him, breaking through Ye County, Qucheng County and two cities, and carrying 100,000 people to Huang County. Lu Zhi had no choice but to send an envoy to Beihai to ask for help.
