For example, Dong Zhuo controlled the court and killed anyone who dared to speak out against him. Such a majestic power was Dong Zhuo's arrogance. It was Dong Zhuo's arrogance that made these officials who cherish their lives dare not have any objection.
"The princes of Guandong have rebelled and have now arrived at Luoyang City. The Xiliang Army will impose a night ban on Luoyang. Anyone who walks around Luoyang City after the chieftain's time, no matter how big or small, will be punished for the crime of collaborating with the enemy.
"Jia Rong glanced at the ministers and said slowly.
All officials showed no disobedience and bowed their heads in silence. The joy brought by Dong Zhuo's death disappeared without a trace. The wolf came and the tiger came. Jia Rong did not kill anyone. No one dared to despise the sword hanging on his waist.
The ministers of the DPRK may not have seen the military prowess of the Xiliang Army, but they have heard that Jia Rong used three thousand cavalry to defeat the Bingzhou Army. They also knew that Jia Rong used thousands of people to resist Han Sui's tens of thousands of troops, and defeated Han Sui's tens of thousands of troops with more than 10,000 cavalry.
If the Xiliang army is a coward, it is estimated that the Han Dynasty has no elite soldiers. Compared with Dong Zhuo, Jia Rong, the tiger, has been quiet since he entered Luoyang, without making many outstanding moves.
It was Dong Zhuo who proposed it for him, "Do not bow before entering the court, but go to court with a sword."
The family was at peace again, but Jia Rong did not dare to neglect precautions. A fortified city like Luoyang was defeated not by the strength of the enemy, but by the collusion of insiders.
The guards of the twelve city gates were all Jia Rong's cronies. To put it bluntly to the Dong Jun generals who had just surrendered, they were serving as idle posts in the army. The general was still a general, but his deputies and basic military governors had been replaced by seventy-seven.
Eighty-eight, if you give orders again, those who can obey them will be two out of ten.
The current Xiliang Army seems to be strong, but in fact there is an undercurrent. As the saying goes, the forest is big and there are all kinds of birds. After all, the original Xiliang Army has relatively few people. If the rebel generals accidentally open the city gate, the losses will be huge.
The coalition's combat effectiveness is not strong, but they are better in numbers.
After taking control of Luoyang, Jia Rong canceled a series of measures taken by Dong Zhuo during his lifetime and encouraged merchants to open markets. However, the city gate of Luoyang was closed tightly. Where could merchants get things if they wanted to do business? Rice and grain are now very expensive in Luoyang City.
Prices have been driven up to three times what they were before, and beggars can be seen everywhere on both sides of the streets. When beggars appear in the capital, it means that the dynasty has really entered its twilight years. Looking at the majestic palace, Jia Rong seemed to see a raging fire.
combustion.
Through the news from Xianlian Pavilion, Jia Rong learned that the businessmen who were driving up the price of grain and rice were inextricably linked to officials from aristocratic families, and some aristocratic families even explicitly asked the merchants to do so.
Businessmen are seeking profits, and no one is willing to take the initiative to lower the price of food at this time. They have nothing to do with people freezing to death on the road. Putting money in their pockets is the best option.
Jia Rong led five hundred blood guards to patrol Luoyang City to learn more about the current situation in Luoyang. Looking at the sallow and thin people, Jia Rong couldn't be happy.
After getting off his horse, Jia Rong went to the people and asked about the situation. Suddenly, a sense of danger came to his heart. This was an intuition cultivated through years of fighting on the battlefield.
Looking back, he saw several Blood Guards following closely behind him. He felt relieved, secretly thinking that his nerves were too tense.
A cold light burst out from the left side of Jia Rong, and the beggar holding the sword flashed an excited light in his eyes. From such a close distance, Jia Rong had no way to avoid it. As for the blood guards on the left and right, they did not see what the beggar was doing.
Drawing a sword.
With a "pop" sound, the long sword penetrated Jia Rong's body without any warning.
Seeing this, the Blood Guards panicked and drew their swords to kill the beggar.
The beggar stared at Jia Rong with a strange look on his face. He felt that the sword seemed to be piercing the cotton, without the refreshing feeling of penetrating into the flesh. He immediately realized that something was wrong, and it was too late to withdraw the sword.
When it comes to foot combat, Jia Rong ranks second, and no one dares to claim first place.
An over-the-shoulder throw threw the beggar into the middle of the Blood Guards.
Looking at the stunned beggar, Jia Rong smiled back, then asked the blood guards to tie up the assassin and ride away in the distance.
If it weren't for the protective armor, I'm afraid this beggar would have succeeded.
When the beggar saw that the assassination failed, the old god closed his eyes and waited quietly for the storm to come.
Although this sword was protected by a treasure armor, it was hit hard. Blood flowed from the corner of his mouth, and Jia Rong's body swayed left and right on the horse.
"General!" A blood guard rushed to support Jia Rong.
Jia Rong suppressed the pain in his chest, sat upright, waved his hands and said, "It doesn't matter."
The thing he bought at a huge price was worth it once, otherwise his life would be lost. Why would he spend the money? Jia Rong felt a little regretful why he didn't wander around Luoyang City more in the first place.
After handing the assassin to Zhang Xiu and resting for a night, Jia Rong came to the military camp. Although the school was in full swing, Jia Rong did not feel any morale. The people in front of him were just a piece of loose sand, not to mention the kind of behavior reflected in the Xiliang cavalry.
With such indomitable momentum, even the most basic queues stood crookedly.
Jia Rong, accompanied by Zhao Yun, Jiang Yu, Lu Bu and others, walked up to the high platform of the school grounds. He glanced at the crowded soldiers below, and an imperceptible smile appeared on the corner of Jia Rong's mouth.
Taking the oversized trumpet from Jiang Yu, Jia Rong cleared his throat and said, "I have seen your training. If you are allowed to go to the battlefield, I am afraid that the world-famous Xiliang Army will be completely defeated."
The soldiers below were buzzing with discussion.
Seeing that Jia Rong's face was slightly ugly, the generals of each department shuttled among the soldiers step by step. This was not the first time they had to deal with such a situation.
The soldiers calmed down, but Jia Rong's face never got better. Such an army can only rely on mass tactics to fight. If it encounters real elites, it will be defeated in one blow. Maybe each of them has good abilities.
Combat power, if you don't know how to cooperate, can only be called the courage of an ordinary man, and it will cause an undetectable wave on the battlefield.
Jia Rong waved his hand and said: "From today on, the original system of the Xiliang Army will be implemented in the army. In three days, the entire army will be assessed. Those who are capable will be promoted and those who are weak will be demoted. Anyone who violates military discipline in the army will be killed."
After saying this, Jia Rong left the school grounds with his hands behind his back.
"These soldiers should be trained as soon as possible. All unqualified soldiers will be driven away." Jia Rong said with a low expression: "The military camp must look like a military camp. How can it be so chaotic?"
The generals who followed them hurriedly agreed. This short gathering also made them feel embarrassed. In the past, when the Xiliang army gathered, it only took half an hour to gather and it was still like this. They got orders from Jia Rong.
, these generals seemed to have received the imperial decree and were ready to go back and fight. Of course, the ones who suffered were those who had newly joined the Xiliang Army.
In less than ten days, the armies of the princes will march to Luoyang. Taking advantage of this period of time, the general's heart will be gathered. Although Luoyang was deeply harmed by Dong Zhuo, the foundation is still there. Not to mention other things, the city wall about ten feet high.
The princes wanted to capture it, and it took less than a year and a half for them to succeed. What's more, there were more than one family in the city related to the princes. The princes did not dare to push the Xiliang army to death. Jia Rong would not sit and guard an empty city like Luoyang.
He was waiting for an opportunity to withdraw from Luoyang.
Compared with Hulao Pass, Luoyang is a steel fortress with numerous archery towers on the city wall and the best defensive equipment in the world.
There are currently about 50,000 coalition soldiers stationed outside Luoyang City. Without the turn of Yuan Shao's army, these soldiers, under the leadership of the general, huddled in the army all day long and did not dare to act rashly. The war at Hulao Pass spread around Luoyang.
There was an uproar, and even a hundred thousand troops could not conquer Hulao Pass, let alone these fifty thousand men, who were like ants in front of Luoyang City.
"General, Cai Yong came to pay a visit and is now outside the mansion."
Jia Rong hurriedly came to greet him. Since returning to Luoyang, Jia Rong had only been to Cai Mansion twice. Regarding Jia Rong's performance at Hulao Pass, Cai Yong said nothing. He also understood that the princes of Guandong would not let Jia Rong go.
Honorable.
What's more, the style of the Guandong princes is not even half as good as that of the Xiliang army. Just look at the villages and counties where the princes' coalition troops passed through. It doesn't need to be littered with corpses, it is enough to be called the autumn wind sweeping away the fallen leaves.
"Teacher, if anything happens, just summon me." Jia Rong said in a respectful tone.
Cai Yong said: "I wonder how Zhiyuan will treat His Majesty?" Cai Yong asked impatiently as soon as he took his seat.
The Xiliang army in Luoyang City is the only one in power. If Jia Rong intends to become a minister of the Han Dynasty, assist the emperor, and persuade all the princes, then the Han Dynasty will be restored soon. Old people like Cai Yong are most happy to see the Han Dynasty revive.
The country is peaceful and the people are safe, and even Jia Rong can be remembered in history. In the eyes of the world, this is the greatest honor. By agreeing to the marriage between Cai Yan and Jia Rong, Jia Rong is treated as a family.
Jia Rongdao: "My teacher's words are wrong. It is the lifelong dream of the disciples for every common people to live a good life. The Han Dynasty has experienced wars for a long time and its national power has declined. The princes of Guandong are nominally the Qing emperors who are revitalizing the Han Dynasty. How many of them can really be Han?
?After letting them enter Luoyang, the first thing they did was not to stabilize the people. I'm afraid they were thinking about how to fight for fame and fortune and how to kill the disciples."
Cai Yong sighed: "Is it possible that none of the eighteen princes are truly Han?"
Jia Rong smiled bitterly and shook his head. To be honest, Cao Cao was a Han man sincerely. However, under the influence of power, the Han Dynasty was still buried in the hands of Cao.
Cai Yong said: "No matter what, the world always belongs to the Han Dynasty. I hope Zhiyuan can serve the country sincerely so that the people of the Han Dynasty can live a good life." In the past, Cai Yong would definitely have said that he would revive the royal family and protect it.
Dahan Sheji.
Under Jia Rong's influence, these illusory things became considerations for the people.
Jia Rong said: "Teacher, please rest assured. I am a humble disciple, so I naturally understand the sufferings of the people in the world. One day, I will let the people under my rule live and work in peace and contentment, and not worry about three meals a day, nor worry about their property and life."
A bright light flashed in Cai Yong's eyes. Jia Rong is undoubtedly the most charming now. He ties the world's affairs to himself. How many people can there be in the world who dare to be so proud?
