Zuo Aoran made up all the stories he made up and said that Zuo Ci, Yu Ji, Guan Ren, Zhang Jiao and others had calculated and told him what he was told to do in a certain month and year, and how he could seek good fortune and avoid misfortune! The Sima clan was destroyed this time.
The goal is to seek good luck and avoid evil, but the target is the Han Dynasty!
People in ancient times really did this, and were stunned by Zuo Aoran. After fooling everyone, Zuo Aoran strictly ordered everyone not to publicize this matter, and then led the soldiers to return the escorted materials.
Luoyang.
When Zuo Aoran returned to Luoyang, it could be said that the buildings were deserted. Not only had all the princes left, but even the common people in Luoyang City had nowhere to look. Zuo Aoran saw this
The sight makes me feel so inexplicable!
At the same time, Zuo Aoran secretly sent a letter to Liu Biao, the governor of Jingzhou, in which he revealed his interests and advised him not to listen to Yuan Shao's words and kidnap Sun Jian halfway. On the other hand, he also secretly sent Xu Chu to lead the army to chase Sun Jian quickly. If he could
If he catches up, he will know the advantages and disadvantages. If he goes too late, he will rescue Sun Jian.
Not long ago, the three brothers Liu, Guan, and Zhang also arrived with a large army. The princes from all walks of life had retreated. It was no longer necessary to send a large army to garrison Hulao Pass. Liu Bei still knew this common sense, so he left three thousand soldiers and horses to garrison.
The rest of the soldiers were brought to Luoyang.
After a brief conversation, Zuo Aoran understood Liu Bei's intention, and did not stop him at all, and even sent troops and food. Liu Bei naturally thanked him profusely, and took his own soldiers and those sent by Zuo Aoran.
The soldiers returned to Pingyuan County with food and pay.
Liu Bei naturally knows that it is best to enjoy the shade under a big tree, but Zuo Aoran's tree is too big, and there is no room for Liu Bei to use it, so Liu Bei chose the path of dragon entering the sea and being free and at ease.
It's a bit bitter, but there will always be a way forward!
After the three brothers Liu, Guan, and Zhang left, Zuo Aoran ordered He Yi and He Man to lead the Red Scarf Army and the Shenhamer Battalion to escort Xu Rong, who had lost too much blood and was unconscious, to rest and recuperate in Zuojia County. The two brothers responded to the order and led the troops.
go.
After finishing some chores, Zuo Aoran issued an order that almost everyone opposed, that is, to station the army in Luoyang, while appeasing the surrounding people, he spent his own money to build Luoyang, the eastern capital that was almost burned to the ground!
"Lord, if we build the eastern capital of Luoyang, we will gain a great reputation, but the land we pay will be greater than the land we get in return! Feng, please think again, lord!" Tian Feng urged.
"Yes! I think Military Master Tian is right, think about it, Ninth Brother! This Luoyang is not our land, why should we repair it! Could it be that it was given to the emperor? Now the emperor has been robbed and moved to Chang'an
, we still don’t know when we will come back? Why are we doing such a thankless job!" Zhang Xu expressed his opinion.
"We have the manpower and material resources, so we might as well put them in our Yuyang! After all, it is our territory! Ninth brother! I will have to say something to you this time!" Liu Hu also interjected.
.
Everyone was still talking about it, expressing their disapproval of what Zuo Aoran did. However, Zuo Aoran was like a bastard eating a weight - he was determined! It was the Nine-Headed Ox Industry that could not be pulled back. In the end, everyone had no choice but to be forced.
He obeyed Zuo Aoran's orders.
Zuo Aoran used the five thousand newly recruited soldiers (Luoyang people) to maintain public security in Luoyang, named them Luoyang New Army, and divided Dong Zhuo's army, which was reorganized after the surrender, into four groups: Li Meng, Cui Yong, Wang Fang, and Zhang Zi.
Lead a group of 20,000 soldiers each, designated Luoyang New Fourth Army, which mainly builds the four walls of Luoyang City and its surroundings. The remaining nearly 20,000 soldiers and horses are returned to the command of Wang Chang and Hu Chi'er. Wang Chang is the orthodox leader and Hu Chi'er is the deputy commander.
Designated as Hubaoying, it was specially built in Luoyang City and did not include the imperial palace.
After Zuo Aoran's political order was issued, the civil and military officials calmed down. It turned out that Zuo Aoran used Dong Zhuo's soldiers to build Luoyang, and also used the money and grain intercepted from Dong Zhuo's army to feed Dong Zhuo's army. Not to mention, there was still money left to lead.
Going home, who among the civil and military officials would not be happy about this! Everyone, uncharacteristically, said that Zuo Aoran had hidden secrets, was unfathomable, was extremely clever, etc.!
There is another thing that is burning in Zuo Aoran's heart right now, and that is Bingzhou, his base in the rear area! Zuo Aoran naturally fully recognizes Chen Deng's resourcefulness and the bravery of his generals, but there is no such sentence
Is it better than God? Zuo Aoran is not afraid of anything, but it is not as good as God to be afraid of such a person! So Zuo Aoran must lead his army to leave as soon as possible, and he must also occupy a powerful city.
That is - Hanoi County!
In ancient China, the north of the Yellow River was Hanoi. During the Warring States Period, Hanoi was the territory of the Wei State. At the end of the Qin Dynasty, Sima Mao was granted the title of King of Yin by Xiang Yu, and the capital was in Hanoi. When Emperor Gaozu of the Han Dynasty came to the throne, the Yin State was established. The following year, it was renamed Hanoi County, located in the southeast of Taihang Mountain.
To the north of the Yellow River, there are sixteen counties: Ji County, Gong County, Linli County, Huojia County, Xiuwu County, Yewang County, Zhou County, Huai County (county seat), Pinggao County, Heyang County, Qin County
Shui County, Zhi County, Shanyang County, Wen County, Chaoge County, Wude County, and Hanoi County have prominent families with the surname Ping, known as Hanoi Wang in the world.
Zuo Aoran wanted to capture Hanoi County not only because it was suitable for large-scale grazing, but also because it could become a strategic buffer for Jiguan. Whether it was offensive or defensive, it was a battleground for military strategists!
The next day, Zuo Aoran led his army back home. In order to prevent nearly 100,000 Dong Zhuo's troops from rebelling, Zuo Aoran followed Tian Feng's plan and ordered Jiang Yiqu to lead the heavy infantry battalion and the sharpshooting battalion to garrison Hulao Pass. Cui Yan followed
Gao Lan led the armored epee battalion and the flying crossbow battalion to garrison at Sishui Pass (no one was stationed after the princes fell apart), Cui Lin assisted from the side, and Zuo Aoran added some supplements, that is, he mobilized 50,000 troops.
Stationed outside Hangu Pass, waiting for opportunities.
Zuo Aoran did this purposefully, because Zuo Aoran is from the future and knows that Wang Yun will soon use a beauty trap and a series of tricks to use Lu Bu to kill Dong Zhuo. When the time comes, Zuo Aoran can directly send troops to attack Chang'an, firstly to protect the big man
The only emperor Liu Xie, secondly, was to protect Wang Yun from being forced to death when Li Jue and Guo Si invaded Chang'an!
What's more important is that Zuo Aoran wants to experience the feeling of holding the emperor hostage to control the princes! If Fang Yue hadn't come out halfway to rescue Cao Cao this time, Zuo Aoran wouldn't be in such trouble, let alone use this method.
Invite and stabilize the continuation of the Han Dynasty!
From the moment Zuo Aoran stepped out of Sishui Pass, the vigorous crusade against Dong Zhuo initiated by Cao Cao ended when Dong Zhuo moved the capital to Chang'an and the princes' alliance left one after another. Although this crusade against Dong Zhuo did not
It was a fatal blow to Dong Zhuo, but it also drove Dong Zhuo from Luoyang to Chang'an. Since the emperor was far away in Chang'an and was kidnapped by Dong Zhuo, the Central Plains became a place where princes competed for supremacy.
In this crusade against Dong Zhuo, the one who benefited the most was Zuo Aoran. Not only did Zuo Aoran become famous, but after several battles, he received a large amount of money, food and equipment, and he also surrendered nearly 100,000 Dong Zhuo.
By surrendering his troops, Zuo Aoran laid a more solid foundation and hidden dangers for future development.
Zuo Aoran led the army to Hanoi County in a mighty manner without any obstruction along the way. When Zuo Aoran arrived at Huai County, Wang Kuang actually brought the county Wenwu out of the city to greet him, and not only said that he wanted to entertain Zuo Aoran,
They also sent food and wine to express their condolences to the sergeants under Zuo Aoran's command. This was something Zuo Aoran never expected. If Zuo Aoran had not been cruel enough after recent experience, he would not have been able to say anything like this.
Zuo Aoran did not stop Wang Kuang's soldiers who were bringing food and wine, but got off his horse and pulled Wang Kuang to the side. He said in a voice that only the two of them could hear: "I want to exchange Dingxiang County for Wang Taishou's Hanoi County."
, I wonder if Governor Wang is willing to change?"
