Chapter 433: The End

Under the current situation, it is safest to follow Lu Zhi for the time being. With the player's reminder, Dong Zhuo probably won't be able to do those outrageous things in history.

In addition, Lu Zhi now has a heavy army in his hands. As long as he wants to, he can immediately become a prince, and it is not something that Dong Zhuo can handle as he wants.

There was no new order from Luoyang. Dong Zhuo seemed to have forgotten that there were tens of millions of troops fighting fiercely outside the pass, and he focused all his energy on consolidating his own strength. All the memorials sent by Lu Zhi and Huangfusong to Luoyang were lost.

Lu Zhi ignored Luo Yang's troubles, and now he went south to Yangcheng with all his heart, united with Huangfusong to defeat the Bocai tribe, and then relied on the two armies to check and balance Dong Zhuo, so that he would not become the gravedigger of the Han Dynasty like in history.

Lu Zhi devoted himself to the Han Dynasty and broke his heart!

Ma Teng, Gongsun Zan, Liu Bei and others had almost the same thoughts as Shang Ji, they were all waiting and watching the development of the situation, waiting for an opportunity to stand in line to seek personal benefits.

However, until there is no new movement from Luoyang, he is still willing to continue to obey Lu Zhi's order. Without a new backer, no one dared to disobey Lu Zhi. The more than 2 million northern troops under his command were not vegetarians, and their overall combat power was higher than that of anyone present!

Don't look at Lu Zhi's usual attitude of kindness, but at this time, if someone takes the initiative to openly and openly betray the Han Dynasty, Lu Zhi will definitely use iron and blood to make him understand what loyalty is!

Traveling all the way in a hurry, half a month later the army finally arrived within the range of Yingchuan County. At the same time, Huangfusong and Lu Zhi also got in touch with each other through special means.

There are still about 2.5 million Han troops in Yangcheng, including 2 million elite Han troops and 500,000 county soldiers. Morale was low because of the deaths of Liu Hong and He Jin before, but the most indispensable thing in the city is famous generals.

Under the joint training of many historical generals, the morale of the army has almost recovered.

Cooperating with Lu Zhi's troops, it is completely possible to cooperate with the inside and outside, and defeat Bocai's troops in one fell swoop! But Bo Cai seemed to have no understanding of the current situation, and he still surrounded Yangcheng slowly, and he didn't have any abnormal reaction to the approaching Lu Zhi's tribe.

Through secret channels, Lu Zhi and Huang Fusong formulated a detailed combat plan, including when to attack, how to divide and encircle, how to wipe out the enemy, and post-war handling and many other matters.

If this plan is implemented, Bo Cai may really die without a place to bury him. However, the arrival of the Luoyang envoy made all this come to naught!

"Brother Bo Jie,

How did you come? "

Lu Zhi happily looked at an old man outside the camp, his face was full of joy.

"Ah!" Cai Yong sighed, and said sadly, "It's hard to say!"

That's right, Luoyang's emissary this time is Cai Yong, the father of Cai Yan, a famous calligrapher, writer, great Confucianist, and a model of talented women in ancient times!

"Brother Bojie, what is the specific inside story of the Luoyang incident? Is His Majesty really killed by Zhang Rang? Is Dong Zhongying really as extravagant and lustful as the rumors say? Is the new emperor's life in danger?"

As soon as he saw Cai Yong, Lu Zhi kept asking questions like a cannonball.

With a wry smile on Cai Yong's face, he repeatedly waved his hands and said, "Brother Zigan, wait a minute, let's talk about these questions one by one!"

"Oh, brother Bojie, forgive me, I'm being reckless!" Lu Zhi also realized his gaffe, smiled awkwardly, and apologized to Cai Yong.

Cai Yong let out a long sigh, and answered Lu Zhi's questions one by one: "Luoyang has undergone tremendous changes, and there is so much fog that I can't see clearly, but according to the Habayashi guards who were on duty at that time and the personal guards who guarded the general, it was indeed Zhang Rangyi. The gang assassinated the general and His Majesty!"

"How is this possible?" Lu Zhi's eyes widened sharply, and he looked at Cai Yong incredulously, "Don't the eunuch know that all his power comes from His Majesty? Why did he assassinate His Majesty? Is he looking for his own death?"

Cai Yong smiled wryly and shook his head, spread his hands and said, "I can't understand, but they all say that the eunuch murdered His Majesty!"

Lu Zhi's face was uncertain, and after a while, he lowered his head and sighed: "Your Majesty is already in the sky, and it is meaningless to discuss this issue now. The most important thing now is whether Dong Zhuo is really as rumored or not?"

Lu Zhi can be sure that Liu Hong's death has something to do with Dong Zhuo, even if Dong Zhuo didn't do it, he would have contributed to it. But the situation has reached such a point that it is meaningless to pursue these matters. Facing the future, waiting for the new king to become an adult and then taking over the government is what Lu Zhi needs to consider.

"Dong Zhuo...?" Speaking of Dong Zhuo, Cai Yong's face was full of confusion, and he hesitated for a long time before Cai Yong hesitated under Lu Zhi's urging eyes and said, "Dong Zhongying... quite... Quite like a great Sima, a great general, Wind of Bolu Marquis!"

"What?" Lu Zhi suddenly stood up, staring at Cai Yong dumbfounded.

The Great General, Great Sima, and Bo Luhou refer to Huo Guang, the power minister of the Western Han Dynasty. Because after Huo Guang's death, his family was punished for treason, so they don't call him by his name, but are replaced by the Great General, Da Sima, and Bo Luhou. refer to.

Although Huo Guang once acted to abolish the emperor, and his family even conspired against him, Huo Guang is a loyal and capable minister in terms of historical positioning!

Emperor Xuan of the Han Dynasty personally issued an order to kill the Huo family, but later commented on Huo Guang's "achievement as Xiao Xiangguo"; !"

Xiao He and Zhou Gong are almost the highest models of ancient ministers, which shows Huo Guang's historical status.

But now Cai Yong actually commented that Dong Zhuo has the style of Huo Guang, which really surprised Lu Zhi.

"Although Dong Zhongying has a large army in his hands, he has never killed anyone since he entered the capital. He is very respectful to the Empress Dowager and His Majesty, strictly abides by the etiquette of courtiers, and has not exceeded the slightest. Even Beijun and Habayashi are much stronger under his control than before."

"Could it be... Could it be that Dong Zhuo is planning to become Wang Mang?" Lu Zhi suddenly asked after staying for a while.

Cai Yong responded silently, this is the best explanation, but Cai Yong obviously has illusions about the current Dong Zhuo report, otherwise the comment on Dong Zhuo just now would not have Huo Guang's style but Wang Mang's style.

But Lu Zhi was full of hostility towards Dong Zhuo, and Cai Yong didn't know what to say in front of his friends.

"By the way, I don't know if Brother Bo Jie has important matters in the army this time? But did he bring a new order from His Majesty?"

After thinking about it for a while, he found that there was no good way to deal with Dong Zhuo. Lu Zhi put Dong Zhuo's affairs aside first, and then asked Cai Yong.

Cai Yong's identity this time is the emperor's special envoy, but now that Luo Yang is under the control of Dong Zhuo, the emperor is only eight years old, so Lu Zhi naturally knows exactly who Cai Yong is sending the message to. However, in order not to embarrass his old friend, Lu Zhi deliberately avoided this topic.

"Cough!" Hearing what Lu Zhi said, Cai Yong's face turned red immediately, he coughed lightly to cover up his embarrassment, Cai Yong stammered and said: "Yong came here this time to deliver the decree for His Majesty."

Cai Yong took a deep breath, as if he was going all out, and said directly: "The Yellow Turban Bandit Zhang Jiao has already abandoned the darkness in Luoyang, His Majesty has decided to pardon Zhang Jiao and the Yellow Turban Army for all their crimes, and seal Zhang Jiao as the Daoist Master of Protecting the Country Xuanfa. All the Yellow Turban Army selected the best and reorganized into the official army, and the rest were disbanded and returned to the peasants on the spot. Immediately, all ministries immediately stopped fighting with the Yellow Turban Army, and the Yellow Turban Rebellion was put down!"

"This is the common opinion of all the courtiers and the Empress Dowager!" At the end, as if to increase his authority, Cai Yong added another sentence, but seeing his eagerness to dig into the ground, he obviously knew that this sentence was not convincing .
