Dong Zhuo was forced to become ferocious by Gai Jun, and he wanted to fight to the death. Just when he was giving the order to start a war, Gai Jun unexpectedly sent three words: Bingzhou Mu.
Dong Zhuo first replaced Liu Hong as Sikong, and in order to become a Taiwei, he made a big Sima and conferred it on Liu Yu. He appointed himself Taiwei, led the former general, added a section biography, an ax and ax, a tiger and a benign, and made him a marquis. No matter how he added to his head. The title of Bingzhou Mu previously awarded by the imperial court was never given up. Now Gai Jun obviously wanted the position of Bingzhou Mu. Should he give it? Or not? Dong Zhuo was more inclined to the former. He called a group of staff to a meeting to listen to everyone's opinions. .
Zheng Tai strongly objected. He said that this case cannot be made. If Gai Jun is appointed as the governor of Bingzhou, what will the other generals with military power think? Tomorrow when Emperor Fusong marches to the east, will he be given the title of Sili Xiaowei? Gongsun Zan will go south, right? To grant Youzhou Mu? Wouldn't that be a mess? He raised his arms and shouted in the end that he would fight even if we were to die together, because the power of the Han Dynasty was untouchable.
Wu Qiong believed that what Zheng Tai said was reasonable, while He Yong chose to remain silent. It was not that there was a disagreement between them, they wanted the two sides to go to war, but they could not make it too obvious, lest Dong Zhuo would become suspicious. Once Dong Zhuo's main force was dragged away by Gai Jun, On the Western Front, the capital must be empty. Perhaps Shandong does not need to raise troops, as they themselves are capable of solving this scourge.
Dong Zhuo had no expression on his face and looked at his master Bo Tian Yi. Tian Yi was named Bodu and was nearly forty years old. He had good features and a dignified appearance. He was born in the Tian family of the Hanyang wealthy family in Liangzhou and was considered a branch of the Zuo Feng Yi Tian family. The Zuo Feng Yi Tian family could be It can be traced back to the time when Liu Bang, the emperor of the Han Dynasty, forcibly moved a prominent family from Shandong to Guanzhong.
Tian Yi said: "Fighting is a bad idea. If we don't allow it temporarily, we can first take back General Huangfu's military power and appoint three assistants, and then we can try to make a move for Gai Ying."
Dong Zhuo asked Li Ru again: "What does Wenyou mean?"
Li Rudao: "Bodu and I coincidentally agree. What Mr. Dong needs now is a stable character. It won't take long, just one year is enough. By then, the people of Bingzhou will behead Gai Ying without Mr. Dong doing it himself."
Dong Zhuo originally intended to compromise. Just as Tian and Li said, he needed time to establish prestige and consolidate his strength. However, he was really unwilling to be blackmailed by Gai Jun. He backed away and sighed: "Bingzhou Mu is just a prince. Gai Jun, Zhuzi, How can He De dare to occupy this position?"
Li Ru knew that Dong Zhuo had already made a decision, so he suggested with a smile: "When you appoint Gai Ying as the governor of Bingzhou, you can transfer Gai Jingzhao back to the capital, and at the same time recruit Cai Bojie to the court."
Dong Zhuo touched his palm and said with a smile: "This is a wonderful discussion."
He Yong glanced sideways at Li Ru, this move was too sinister.
Envoy Gai Jun set out with Dong Zhuo's envoy Zhou Yao from Wuwei, but secretly ordered his horse to return quickly. It was supposed to take ten days, but he came back in three days. It was extremely fast.
After receiving the letter, Gai Jun immediately led an army of nearly 50,000 people southward and surrounded Huangfu Li's military camp outside Gaoling City, where Zuofeng Yi was in charge. .
Huangfu Song and Gai Xun looked at each other, but the latter was furious. Instead of attacking Dong Zhuo's tribe in Hedong, this boy actually did something that would hurt his relatives and make his enemies happy.
Gai Xun shouted that he would be the vanguard to attack him. Huangfu Song couldn't laugh or cry and quickly tried to comfort him. Gai Xun barely suppressed his anger and went to Gaoling alone that night. Before leaving, he bluntly said that he could not persuade Gai Jun, so he would sever the father-son relationship with him and fight again on the battlefield.
Huangfusong looked at Gai Xun's solid back and hesitated to speak, and finally did not speak.
Gai Xun crossed Gai Jun's army late at night, entered Huangfu Li's camp, comforted the soldiers, and then turned around and drove directly to Gai Jun's tent. When he saw his son, Gai Xun was furious. He didn't care about the generals and scolded him like a dog.
Bloody head.
The generals stood there, at a loss. Gai Jun waved his hand and ordered them to retreat. Only the father and son were left in the tent. He knelt in front of Gai Xun and remained silent, letting himself be scolded. In his impression, his father
I've never been so angry.
An entire hour passed, and Gai Xun's mouth went dry from scolding him. Gai Jun knelt down and poured a glass of water for him, advising him: "Father, take a breath first, don't get too angry."
"I won't drink." Gai Xun waved his hand and said in a hoarse voice: "I just ask you, will you retreat?"
"Quit, quit tonight."
"..." Gai Xun was stunned for a moment, and his mind couldn't turn around.
Gai Jun looked directly at his father and continued: "But father wants to go with me."
"What did you say?" Gai Xun had no idea what his son was thinking.
Gai Jun explained: "Dong Zhuo has appointed his son as the pastor of Bingzhou, and an envoy will arrive in five or six days."
Gai Xun figured out all the joints at once, and said with a livid face: "Are you coming south specifically for me?"
"Yes. My son is a thorn in Dong Zhuo's side and a thorn in his flesh. Since he is the shepherd of Bingzhou, I'm afraid..." Gai Jun didn't say what he said later, but everyone could understand what he meant. His only Achilles' heel was his father Gai Xun. Dong Zhuo was so scheming, how could he not have thought of it?
this point.
Gai Xun's eyes widened and he said, "What if I don't go with you?"
Gai Jun said with determination: "I will never let my mother fall into the wolf's den."
"You..." Gai Xun pointed at Gai Jun and was furious. Ma Zhao had not returned from Beidi County for a long time. He was still surprised at first. It turned out that Gai Jun had planned it for a long time. How long had this beast been planning? Absolutely not.
Let his mother fall into a wolf's den? Does it mean that if he insists on staying, the couple will never see each other again? Gai Xun shouted "Nie Zi" and picked up a cup to hit her.
Gai Jun did not dodge, but was hit in the middle of the forehead, and blood flowed straight down.
Gai Xun regretted throwing the cup. He saw the only son's face covered with blood and motionless. He wanted to pretend not to care, but he couldn't do it. He took out a handkerchief from his arms and handed it to him with a cold face.
Gai Jun simply wiped his eyes to prevent blood from dripping into his eyes, and asked: "What does father think of Dong Zhuo?"
Gai Xun snorted coldly: "What's the point of asking? Dong Zhuo is a national thief, he must be killed."
"What father said is absolutely true." Gai Jun nodded in agreement. "However, he held the emperor hostage and supported a large number of troops, so he could not be eliminated. Father should know that his eldest brother Yuan Benchu, Yuan Gongdao, Cao Mengde and others fled. He also knew that Zhang Mengzhuo, Han Wenjie, Kong Gongxu, etc.
Liu Gongshan and others became states and counties..."
Gai Xun frowned and said, "You mean..."
"All this was planned by my eldest brother Yuan Benchu. If nothing else happens, the counties in Shandong Province will raise troops to serve the king next year." At this time, there was still no trace of the matter of asking Dong Dong. It was in the embryonic stage at best, but Gai Jun wanted to persuade his father to join him.
Leave, don't care about so much anymore.
Gai Xun easily formed the power map of both sides in his mind. His face was full of horror. It took him a while to recover, and he said: "Then why don't you take the lead in starting the war, disperse Dong Zhuo's forces, and reduce the pressure on Shandong..."
Gai Jun smiled bitterly and said: "My father has been with General Huangfu for a long time, so he should know what kind of person he is. General Huangfu put down the Yellow Turban Rebellion in the past. He had a hundred thousand soldiers and was famous all over the world. He was still loyal to the country. It was too easy for Dong Zhuo to deal with him.
A paper transfer order will suffice. By then Dong Zhuo will have more than 100,000 people, and I am afraid that he will not be able to support Shandong to raise an army. Besides, Shandong has no good soldiers and generals. All the prefectures and counties are famous people who like to talk but don't know how to fight. Can they compete with Dong Zhuo?"
Seeing his father deep in thought, Gai Jun said for a while: "To be arrogant, the one who can save the world must be my father and son. The best way now is to quickly control Bingzhou, and then attack with Shandong, attacking from both sides, and we can kill him in one battle."
National traitor."
Gai Xun was a decisive person, and he immediately agreed to go north with the army without thinking for too long.
Gai Jun breathed a sigh of relief, bandaged the wound hastily, and ordered a retreat.
Huangfu Li stood at the gate of the camp, watching Gai Jun's army retreat like a tide. He was startled at first, and then shocked, why didn't Gai Jingzhao come out?
Not long after, a horse drove up and delivered a letter. Huangfu Li looked at the face behind him and looked at the dark distance. He wondered whether Gai Jun was coercing his father, or whether father and son were complicit?
Huangfusong received Gai Xun's handwritten letter the next day. He was speechless for a long time and his eyes were confused. He had been worried about this before Gai Xun left. This was the outcome he least expected to see, but it still happened...
Gai Junjun withdrew from Zuo Fengyi and entered Shangjun. He received the news that Jin Xuan, the governor of the North, said he was ill and abandoned his official position. All the officials in the North jointly elected Jingzhao Yin Gaixun as the governor of the North.
Facing Gai Xun's scolding, Gai Jun looked innocent and hurriedly distanced himself from the relationship, saying it had nothing to do with him.
It has nothing to do with you? That's strange. But now that the matter has come to this, Gai Xun has no choice but to succeed as the governor of the North.
A few days later, Zhou Ao arrived. As soon as they met, he expressed his bitterness: "Ziying, you have given me a big problem." Both of them were from Hexi, Liangzhou, and the younger one was an imperial student. They both praised filial piety and honesty.
Friendship from the same family means there is no need to be secretive when speaking.
"What's the problem?" Gai Jun pretended not to know and said with a smile.
Zhou Yao said: "The imperial court has appointed your father as the ninth minister, and now your father has not been appointed as the governor of the north without the order of the imperial court. It seems to be against the rules..."
Gai Jun sneered: "The imperial court's order? I think it's Dong Zhuo's intention?"
Zhou Ao knew that he had always been at odds with Dong Zhuo, so he did not mention the matter and just talked about the current situation.
Gai Jun was a little worried about Zhou Ao's future situation. He was a minister, and he was very close to He Yong, Wu Qiong, Zheng Tai and others. He was involved in recommending Zhang Mengzhuo, Han Wenjie, Kong Gongxu, Liu Gongshan and others to serve as prefectures and counties.
But obviously, he did not understand the conspiracy. When the Shandong army broke out, his friend's life was in danger.
Gai Jun hesitated for a long time, then gritted his teeth and said, "Zhong Yuan, come with me, and I will keep you a two-thousand-stone county guard."
"..." Zhou Ao glanced at Gai Jun in surprise. Gai Jun immediately smiled bitterly. As a minister, Zhou Ao holds the power of the world. When he is a young man and is full of ambition, how can he be willing to go to Bingzhou to work for two thousand stones?
Gai Jun knew that he couldn't force it, so he sighed secretly and said, "If Zhong Yuan is unhappy in the capital in the future, he can come to Bingzhou and join me."
Zhou Ao smiled and said: "Definitely..."
Gai Jun was officially granted the title of Bingzhou Mu, and he promoted Sima Bao to be the captain of Shangjun. He led 10,000 infantry and cavalry to station at the Qiyuan line of Shangjun to monitor Guanzhong. After returning to Xihe County, he promoted Sima Hu to be the captain of Xihe, and stayed with the cavalry.
Wan, looked east of the river. Later he entered Wang's Wubao in the west river, whispered to Wang Xin for an hour, recruited him to the shogunate, and granted him the post of Biejia. Biejia was the first person below the governor of Zhouzhou, and he had great authority.
Finally, Gai Jun sent the remaining 27,000 troops to Jinyang, Taiyuan.
