Li Ru was not only Dong Zhuo's son-in-law, he was also Dong Zhuo's most trusted advisor. He read Yuan Shao's letter once through seriously and solemnly nodded: "Lord General, even though you have been given an edict, there is still a hidden meaning in the middle of it. "Why don't you send someone to get on your watch and tell us what's right and proper, as well as what's important."

That one sentence had reminded Dong Zhuo, for the sake of He Jin's paper, he had rushed over to Luoyang in a hurry, wouldn't he be fighting with He Jin first? " Your son-in-law is right, quickly draft a set of Recital s. We will enter the Luoyang honorably under the banner of removing castrations. "

Li Ru had high hopes for Dong Zhuo, and the so called big plan was that they had the ambition to dominate the entire world. He didn't want Dong Zhuo to become He Jin's follower, and even more so, couldn't become Yuan Shao's lackey. With a wave of his hand, a set of Recital s would do, he wanted everyone to know that Dong Zhuo was acting on his own behalf.

"This humble one believes that the reason why such outrageous people appear in the entire world is because adulterous castration Zhao Zhong, Zhang Can and the others were so insulted by the heavens, usurping the life of an emperor, and saying whatever you want and doing whatever you want with your mouth. The father, son and brother of the adulterous castration were tyrannical experts within the State County. Just by relying on a few documents, they could obtain a thousand gold in profits. They had taken all the millions of fertile land around the capital city. The actions of the adulterous castration had filled the country with grievances, and the nation was in turmoil because of that. The soldiers were hungry and exhausted, but none of them were willing to follow their men into the west. They asked their men to bring troops into the capital to kill the eunuchs, to exterminate the people and demand military pay from the imperial court. As the saying goes, it is better to put an end to the boiling water than to put out the fire to pay for it. Although the carbuncle is painful, it is better to nourish the flesh than to drown the boat. "

Dong Zhuo led his troops to cross the Yellow River. Along the way, he ordered the troops to ring the bell and drum. In a short period of time, the squire and the Scholars along the way were all cheering up, and there were even more commoners rushing over to tell the others that the day of doom had arrived for those eunuchs who harmed the whole world.

However, just as Dong Zhuo's three thousand cavalrymen arrived at the Mini Pond, they ran into the messenger sent by the Eunuch. Not only did Zhang Rong get someone to send him a big gift, he even promised in the letter that as long as Dong Zhuo returned back to West Cold, he would convince the empress dowager to take Dong Zhuo as her riding general and lead him as her master.

All these years, in order to protect himself, Dong Zhuo had to present gifts to the Eunuch every year. This had already become an open secret. And the Eunuch did not treat Dong Zhuo poorly. There were a few times where Dong Zhuo lost, and it was only because of the eunuchs' good offices skills, that they were able to avoid being punished by the Hanling Emperor's Liu Hong.

"Lord General, we should just set up camp there." After Li Ru sent away the messenger, he quietly said to Dong Zhuo: "Now that the four great generals have led their troops into the Luoyang, the imperial government will definitely be in chaos. It is not known who will win, but we will wait here and see. Firstly, we should give the Eunuch some face, and secondly, we should also see how the situation develops in the Luoyang before deciding on where we should go from here. "

Whether or not he gave Eunuch face, Dong Zhuo did not care, but the situation of the Luoyang was unknown, and he was a little hesitant. No matter how strong the West Cold Cavalry was, it only had three thousand people. In front of the tens of thousands of Northern Army and West Garden Army, Dong Zhuo didn't dare to act rashly.

"Pass my orders, the cavalry will set up camp on the spot, we will wait in the pond and see." Dong Zhuo thought about it again and again and decided to listen to Li Ru's advice. Based on his sense of smell, he predicted that there would be a huge change in the Luoyang and he would just sit here and enjoy the show.

The third and last Recruitment Order to respond to the Grand General Ho Jin was also the Yanzhou. The Eastern Region was right next to the Luoyang. Originally, they should have been the first to arrive, but because Qiao Mao's soldiers were all County soldier s, they barely went through any battles, and their movements were a little slow.

As a scholar, Yuan Shao would never forget Qiao Mao. Almost at the same time Qiao Mao received the Great General Recruitment Order, Qiao Mao also received the letter from the commanding officer, Yuan Shao. However, Yuan Shao did not ask for Qiao Mao's help. He only wanted him to hurry to Luoyang to conspire against them. As for what the reason was, Yuan Shao did not say.

Maybe it was due to the mutual appreciation of the warriors, but the ensign, Yuan Shao, actually came out of the city to welcome them. When Qiao Mao arrived, the sky had already darkened. Qiao Mao's team was holding torches in his left hand and spears in his right, with bits and pieces of them spiraling towards them like fire dragons.

The high-ranking officer walking in front of the group was dressed in pure white armor and a cloak. He had the bearing of a Confucian general, attracting the attention of many in the dark night. Army field officer Yuan Shao immediately went up to welcome him and laughed loudly: "Heh heh … Master Qiao Mao was no less magnificent than he was back then. "Today, I am the servant of the humerus …"

"Master Yuan Shao, please excuse me." Qiao Mao was very touched, he immediately jumped down the horse to meet Yuan Shao, with his eyes shining brightly, he kowtowed to He Jin three times: "To castrate and run amok through the imperial court, wreaking havoc in the world, everyone has the right to kill him, if not we can eat his flesh, sleep on his skin, and if not we can get rid of him, I, the burly man will be in trouble under the world! Now that the Great General has raised his arm and wants to pull my big size man into the fire and water, there is no one in the world who will not respond, Qiao Mao dares not follow his orders? "

"Master Qiao Mao responded first, leading the troops to the west of Luoyang. The day that we castrate and erase them will be the first day for you, my lord. " The commanding officer laughed, walked up and held Qiao Mao's hand, and said extremely affectionately: "Come, come, come. You and I will ride together, we will walk and talk."

The raging flames in the Mentinudu burned the entire night, and standing at the head of the Luoyang City, one could see the flames that soared to the sky. No matter if it was the ordinary citizens, those Wealthy Classes, or the Scholars, they all passed the night in fear.

That night, a few soldiers brought the head of the West Garden Army's left field officer, Zhao Rong, to the Imperial Palace. Immediately after, all sorts of rumors spread around the Luoyang. Although the way she said it was different, there was one thing that she was sure of, and that was that Ding Yuan had led the troops into the capital, in response to the Grand General Ho Jin's Recruitment Order, to kill the eunuchs.

The Eunuch s panicked, knowing that a great disaster was about to befall them this time. Especially the few Chinese traditional medicine s, who also seemed to feel that their time had come. They rushed over to the eunuch's mansion in the middle of the night, as if only when they were together could they muster up their courage.

However, Chief Eunuch Zhang Rou was very calm, he ordered the Eunuch to take out some money and Zhao Zhong sent someone to deliver it to Dong Zhuo. These past few years, Dong Zhuo had always been filial to them, and now that they were able to repay him, Dong Zhuo would definitely give them this bit of face.

As long as Dong Zhuo did not come to the Luoyang, Zhang Rong believed that he could control the situation there. Ever since he had entered the palace, he had either fought with his relatives or with the scholars. It could be said that he knew his limits. Ever since Yang Lin had helped him last time, he was very confident that he could defeat He Jin and Yuan Yuan.

When this group of Eunuch left, he immediately sent people to invite them to the tavern. The calmness just now was all an act, just to give the Eunuch a boost. And only now did he truly understand just how important Yang Lin was to him. He desperately wanted Yang Lin to come and rescue them.

Although Yang Lin told the Zhang Banxian that there would be chaos in the Luoyang and asked him to sell the inn several times to lead everyone out of the Luoyang, the Zhang Banxian still insisted on staying in the Luoyang. It was not that he didn't believe Yang Lin's predictions, but he was the same as Dong Zhuo, wanting to take advantage of the chaos to fish, or should we say, take the drop of milk from the fire.

Ever since she saw that huge fire, Zhang Banxian knew that Zhang Nan would look for him. This was a good opportunity. Even if he had any requests, Zhang Jean wouldn't be able to describe it. Therefore, as soon as Zhang Jean's servants found him, he followed them to her residence.

"Mr. Zhang Ling, you must have seen the great fire of Mentinudu, right?" When they first met, Zhang Jean went straight to the point and said, "Grand General Ho Jin wants to force us onto a dead end … You have to inform the hussar general and have him send troops south immediately to deter these small fries. "

"Grand Manager, I was just about to report to you. The Grand General Ho Jin's Sima Zhang Jin had just left the hussar general's camp. On the orders of the Grand General Ho Jin, he personally went to the An Ping County to invite the hussar general to the capital. " Zhang Banxian had also only just received Yang Lin's Eagle Message, she immediately told Zhang Gongzi.

"Ah …" What did hussar general say? " Zhang Lian was really shocked. If He Jin contacted Yang Lin and gave him such a huge benefit, maybe Yang Lin would be like Dong Zhuo and offer the Recital s that could eradicate castration, and these eunuchs would really die without a burial ground.

"Of course, the cavalry general would not listen to Great General's Recruitment Order, but he also would not refuse. It only told Zhang Jin that as long as he had the emperor's decree, he could set off at any time. If there is no imperial edict, he will not listen to anyone's orders. " Since the Zhang Banxian was talking about He Jin, it was also telling him that without an imperial edict, Yang Lin would not listen to him.

"hussar general is truly loyal!" Although Zhang Rong was relieved, he was also a bit disappointed. With the current situation, the Empress Dowager He would definitely not agree to Yang Lin's army heading south, and he would not be able to obtain the Emperor's decree. He looked at Zhang Banxian and said unwillingly: All these years, we have given hussar general a lot of help.

"How could that be?" Zhang Banxian immediately stood up and cupped her hands towards Zhang Jean: "Grand Manager, we will not forget the help you have given us. hussar general wants me to tell him that since He Jin is powerful now, he should avoid our attacks. Let's go to our Youzhou instead and guarantee the safety of Grand Manager and his family. "

"Thank you, hussar general." In times of crisis, Zhang Shuang could not help but feel touched by such heartwarming words. However, the thought of losing power was even worse than killing him. "No, I can't just leave the court like this."

"Grand Manager, if you are unwilling to leave the Imperial Court, how can I help you?" The Zhang Banxian revealed a worried look and said awkwardly: "hussar general is not a scholar, if we were to lead troops south without an imperial edict, we would definitely be scolded as traitors, maybe the Grand General Ho Jin would even take the opportunity to take over the troops."

Zhang Jean's face darkened. She did not speak for a long time. He really couldn't think of a reason to get the Empress Dowager He to agree to Yang Lin's plan to head south. No matter what, He Jin was Empress Dowager He's brother, she would not let Yang Lin and He Jin fight. He raised his head and looked at Zhang Banxian, asking for help: "Aren't you hussar general's advisor, help me think of an idea?"

"This …" Zhang Banxian seemed to hesitate for a moment. Actually, he had already thought of a plan in her heart a long time ago. " Grand Manager, Lieutenant Wu Meng, and Hanoi County Imperial Guard Ding Yuan led their troops to Luoyang, causing a gap to appear in Hanoi County Imperial Guard. If Grand Manager had trusted people to lead troops and guard Hanoi County, what would Grand Manager be worried about? "
