Chapter 411 The Board of Directors
Any normal person who sees the fate of General He Jin and experiences Dong Zhuo's various things will never be able to trust the sergeant in the court again.
Li Ru and Niu Fu are Dong Zhuo's family. On the land of Xiliang, nepotism is absolutely necessary. Hua Xiong is a pure military general. In Dong Zhuo's department, Hua Xiong has no thoughts, which makes Dong Zhuo feel more at ease.
Zhang Liao is very skilled in martial arts and extraordinary in courage, but after all, he is single and young, so there is basically no other way out except Dong Zhuo.
Cao Cao was criticized for his reputation as a eunuch. Even if Cai Yong put aside his relationship with Donglai, he was still a great scholar who was ignored by court officials and even dug holes for him.
Dong Zhuo’s current standards for selecting and employing people are very simple and crude. Almost all of them are those who are placed in the Central Plains and have various reasons that are not popular.
As for Feng Chi, Niu Sheng and Yi Gong, the young man, he has good combat power and is very good at fooling people. It is no secret that the Donglai soldiers are scattered outside the territory of the Han Dynasty.
Dong Zhuo believed that there was no conflict with Li Ling. If Li Ling dared to release him, he would dare to use it. Guo Si and Li Jue had a complicated mind and he would dare to give troops to lead the army, let alone a few simple minded boys.
For these overlords in troubled times, they have some confidence and pride that they can train other people's children into their own fans. Of course, if they only have heroic spirit but no means, there will most likely be some problems with this mentality.
"The Prime Minister, the news about the death of Empress Dowager Dong has begun to spread in the Jingzhou area that the Prime Minister Guojiu killed the Empress Dowager." There were no outsiders around him, and Cao Cao frowned and reported to Dong Zhuohui.
"Hmph, just pass it on. It's a disaster for stupid people in this country to keep them. They live and rely on their seniority. No matter how they die, they will be counted on me." Dong Zhuo was angry and had become a little used to the sewage on his body recently.
"The Prime Minister is careful to speak, and Empress Dowager Dong is ruling himself. You must not admit this matter with slackening." Cao Cao said cautiously.
Empress Dowager Dong was sent away by Dong Zhuo's glass of poisoned wine. Everyone present knew about these things, even Empress Dowager He and Emperor Liu Bian knew about them, and they all agreed to Dong Zhuo's behavior.
The chaos that Queen Mother Dong can cause is too serious. The Han Dynasty ruled the world with filial piety. She took advantage of her status and was scattered. No one could restrain her.
And it is obvious that if she dares to do this, there will definitely be someone behind her support. The relatives in the court and foreign countries are almost dead. It is obvious where her confidence support comes.
This also led to the fact that even Cai Yong, who is relatively gentle, has no resistance to Dong Zhuo's sending off Empress Dowager Dong. He was once a great scholar who was almost beheaded by a street in the failed struggle...
"Meng De is intent, but I know it, but I am frustrated. Moreover, the place of Jingzhou is not something that we can control and restrain. Liu Biao is still a governor, right? I can't hold back this? No wonder Yuan didn't say anything for him." Dong Zhuo's mouth was filled with contempt.
"Yuan Benchu is really absurd. Your Majesty is not in a way. The world is still peaceful. It is really absurd to want to support Liu Yu's new emperor!" Cao Cao said indignantly when he heard Dong Zhuo mention Yuan's family.
"Haha, it's fake to support the new emperor, it's true to recommend Liu Yu to the stage and enfeoff Ji You. Unfortunately, Yuan Wei pretended to be stupid, and how could Liu Yu not see a little plan?" Li Ru smiled faintly.
"The Yuan family's husband pretended to be deaf and dumb in the court, and his children were making trouble outside. I really should slaughter the whole family to serve as a warning!" Dong Zhuo was angry and did not cover up his murderous intention.
"Lord, Gong Quan, and I ordered that Hua Xiong would take the head of a battalion of military academy." Hua Xiong asked for the order in a rough manner. Xu Rong, on the side, had resentment towards the people in this aristocratic family in his early years and also had murderous aura in his eyes.
"No! Now Zhongying's reputation is mostly rumored, and there are many people watching the world. Yuan has been an example for the world for a long time. If he attacks Yuan, the so-called rumors will be made true and will definitely be attacked by the world." Cai Yong said worriedly.
"Teacher Cai's words are reasonable, but recently many places have hiding voices of storm against us. The Yuan clan members in the city still need to be taken care of. If they really want to do that disrespectful thing, it will not be too late to eradicate them." Li Ru's eyes were gloomy.
"The situation is so urgent?" Cai Yong questioned.
"Haha, the Cai Shi didn't know anything. In the early years, the late emperor delegated power to the local area, and the recent situation of dispatching troops and generals in various parts of the Central Plains has been serious. The Yuan family, Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu, were mainly connected by officials from many places in the north and south. Even Cao was sent to many banquets." Cao Cao said with a wry smile.
"How dare they do this!" Cai Yong's eyes were a little shocked and angry.
Dong Zhuo shook his head slightly. Cai Yong was very knowledgeable and capable of government affairs, but his sensitivity to fighting and fighting was extremely low. Everyone did not answer Cai Yong's questions, and Cai Yong pondered and stopped talking.
What dares or not? In terms of the recent situations, they seem to have nothing to dare to do.
Liu Hong's party corruption several times, which can be said to have slaughtered all the ministers and scholars in the court who could suppress the aristocratic families. Since then, the aristocratic families have lost their constraints.
The aristocratic family developed silently for a dynasty. As soon as Liu Hong died, his relatives died. Under the name of his relatives, his internal officials were slaughtered. It can be said that the upper forces of the Eastern Han Dynasty were completely reshuffled and emptied.
If Dong Zhuo had not entered Luo, there would be few poor families in the dynasty, and there were no one to restrict the family, and the royal family would be left with orphans and widows. Apart from the rows of fruits and fruits, there would probably be only the problem of changing dynasties.
When things have developed to this point, how many people in the world are staring at this plump and powerful pastry, will Dong Zhuo give up the good situation in front of them because of Dong Zhuo and the warlords all the way?
Who is willing to let an outsider come in and get a bargain for the incident that has been planned for a dynasty and the fruits of the struggle in the Central Plains?
Cai Yong was agile and as long as he gave up his subjective cognition, he analyzed all of them in a blink of an eye. When he was silent, he also remembered that Li Ling had avoided the undercurrent of power in the Central Plains from beginning to end.
Now looking at the situation facing Dong Zhuo, Cai Yong sighed that perhaps Li Ling's choice was the real wise.
Many things are not whether you are powerful or not, but they also depend on whether those who are interested are willing to accept it. And in the land of the Eastern Han Dynasty, there happened to be too many people who are interested.
‘There are no good people in troubled times, and there are no good people in troubled times~’ Cai Yong sighed in his heart.
Dong Zhuo resisted the so-called last order of the emperor and did not support the destruction of the young emperor, thus being contradicted.
With the strength of the Western Liang army entering Luo at that time, it was natural to support the destruction of the Shao emperor. If Dong Zhuo led a destruction, then the situation of Dong Zhuo's Western Liang army would probably be even more natural.
The royal throne is second to the emperor, and Cai Yong has a slight toothache. This method is indeed cruel.
In other words, after the chaos before, if the officials and ministers in the court had not controlled the inside and outside of the imperial city, no matter who came or stands, they would basically not be at peace and would end up being subject to the slightest consequences of thousands of people.
"This... is inevitable?" Cai Yong looked up and asked, not sure of his thoughts.
"Inevitable!" As if he understood what Cai Yong meant, Li Ru replied.
"What if the Xiliang army withdrew its troops?" Cai Yong whispered.
"How to leave? The Xiliang army has millions of soldiers to support the emperor. At this time, the troops are withdrawn, not to mention the emperor, but how can these Xiliang soldiers be controlled again. If they can have a stable morale in such a thing, then we and a few of us will discuss it here." Cao Cao sighed and continued.
"The royal family is ruthless. What will happen if they abandon him? I think Mr. Cai will definitely think of it."
Cao Cao was straightforward, Cai Yong was silent again, Dong Zhuo's face gradually became darker, and his eyes were filled with anger, but the anger was not aimed at Cao Cao. Instead, he looked at Cao Cao with a little appreciation.
"Those who know me are Cao Mengde!" Dong Zhuo sighed and Cao Cao smiled bitterly.
"Haha, everyone, don't just be bitter. Are our Xiliang troops strong?"
"There are 100,000 soldiers under my command that can be fought against by the Iron Cavalry of Xiliang. Some children dare to speak vainly about attacking. Everyone, let me talk about how to destroy the enemy!"
The atmosphere in the hall was dull, and Dong Zhuo suddenly laughed loudly. After everyone was slightly surprised, they all smiled a little on their faces.
