1.40 Regroup

The three palaces were reconciled, and the court barely maintained.

Most of the generals had dispersed. Chief Xu You, chief clerk Chen Lin and others, former chief clerk, were invited by Empress Dowager He, and turned to the General's shogunate to assist He Miao.

However, all the generals of the government followed Yuan Shao's leader, especially the commander of the Eight Pass, who did not obey the orders. As a last resort, he had no choice but to hand it over to the general of the auxiliary Han Dynasty, Liu Bei, King Ji. King Ji was the prestigious world, and no one refused to obey.

The short-term alliance led by Yuan Shao collapsed immediately.

Compared with civil officials, military generals value strength more. Why should He Miao say more? Moreover, when the general raised an army, He Miao did not respond. He even suffered from an enemy from both sides and was taken advantage of by Dong Chong. The general failed and his head was different.

Yuan Shao should not be underestimated.

To stop the loss to the greatest extent, Empress Dowager He needed to win over Yuan Shao, who was born in the fourth generation and the three dukes, for his own use. At the beginning of the year, Yuan Shao's biological father, Yuan Feng, was seriously ill and asked for leave. He resigned many times, but the Empress Dowager did not agree. It was because of the friendship of the lord and minister that the Empress Dowager came forward, and Yuan Shao and He Miao and the other two could only reluctantly say peace.

Yuan Shao, the Sili School Commander, was supposed to be exempted from prison because he participated in the palace change. Yuan Wei, the court commander, took the crime on his behalf and submitted a letter to resign. Empress Dowager Dou personally tried to keep him and ordered Yuan Shao to punish him. He was expelled from Sili School Commander, and led the Northern Army to the Northern Army. Zhou Shen, the former Northern Army Commander, was imprisoned twice. If there was no special amnesty, he might not be able to rise again in this life.

Because both sides were at fault, He, Dong and Qi were not in a state of progress. Zhou Shen was sentenced to prison and was also punished by others. He was killed by General He Jin's cavalry captain, and also led the military captain Bao Hong, appointed as the general of the bandits and went out to the foreign town. His position was led by Bao Xin, the cavalry captain who had just recruited troops back to Beijing. Yuan Shao, the captain of the Northern Army, also led the military captain, and commanded the Xiyuan Guard.

Under the game between all parties, the Eight Pass Commander who guarded Luoyang was controlled by Liu Bei, the general of the auxiliary Han Dynasty. He was usually obeyed the orders of Ergucheng, and the right chief Jia Xu and the left chief Xun You were also dispatched by the army Sikong Tian Feng, who was supervised by the army.

Later, the general annexed the Bingzhou Governor Dong Zhuo and returned to Huguan alone, and the Wumeng Duwei Ding Yuan was stationed in Hulao.

At this point, Luoyang's troops were from the outside to the inside: the eight gates were in the hands of King Ji; Guo Si and Fan Chou, under Dong Piaoqi, were stationed in Shanglinyuan, the west of the city; Hu Qiqi, under He Cheqi, guarded Guangchengju; the two armies in the north and south of the city were led by Zhang Ji; and the Xiyuan Guard was led by Yuan Shao.

Especially the Southern Army, Yulin and Huben, after two palace changes, the losses were severe. Emperor Dong was in peace and was prepared for danger, and he ordered Dong to choose the good families of six counties, including Hanyang, Longxi, Anding, Beidi, Shangjun, and Xihe.

The position of General of the Yulin Central Lang was granted to Li Jue under Dong Piaoqi. Empress Dowager He lived in the West Garden separately. There was no objection to the affairs of the two palaces in the north and south.

The great general He Jin's old descendants, He and Dong's two foreign relatives were even more stable. No matter General Dong Chong, the cavalry general, or the cavalry general, or Miao, they had no power to dominate the court and the country and eliminate the ambitions of dissidents. Moreover, because of He Jin's death, it was difficult for both sides to agree. In the open and secret struggles, the party members became the targets of the two relatives' competing for mutual enlistment. Because of the heavy responsibility, Zhang Jian, the young mansion who had vowed with the great general, was as stable as Mount Tai. He was not implicated by the palace transformation. Before the general, he entered the land, he was already competing for good.

The ten eunuchs damaged two more. Zhang Rang jumped into the river and died. Guo Sheng was strangled by the empress dowager. The remaining Cheng Huang, Cao Jie, Zhao Zhong, Bi Lan, Song Dian, and five others were left. Cheng Huang lived in Changxin Palace, and Cao Jie lived in Hanyuan Jingshu. Most of them did not care about the world. The remaining three people depended on each other for their lives, all headed by the mother of the late emperor Zhao Zhong. The yellow gates in the palace were slaughtered in large numbers. They were stretched out. If the scholars were not used, they could only appoint female officials.

A large number of palace servants who guarded the tomb of the late emperor returned to the palace. Even the female officials of Emperor Huan also chose to choose the right age to return to the ban.

This is enough. Not all the children of the Yellow Family are eunuchs. Many people get married and have children and are punished and entered the palace only when they are middle-aged. Even if they are punished in advance and forced into the palace, they cannot get out of bed without a month or even several months of cultivation after the operation. How can they be too late?

The female official became the only choice.

In just a few years, the Huangmen was slaughtered and its momentum was greatly reduced. The ten regular attendants were less than half of the previous ones. The followers also died in large numbers. There was no one in the successor. As Cao Jie said, the Huangmen declined, and it was inevitable.

Xiguo, Pingle Hall.

Zhang Jian Jingshe, Shaofu.

As soon as Dong Biqi Lobbyist left, He Cheqi and the messenger arrived. He sent away the two Qi, the new Central Army of the Northern Army, and also led the commander of the Xiyuan Shangjun Army, Yuan Shao, and came to the door in person.

Zhang Jian came out in person to welcome him.

The host and guest sat down. Before Zhang Jian could speak, Yuan Shao was crying.

Yuan Shao is also a hero. The general was defeated and his body and head were different. The good situation was dispersed once. As an witness, Yuan Shao’s humiliation was conceivable.

Zhang Jian empathized with it and shed tears on the spot.

After a while, Yuan Shao stopped his grief and said with hatred: "If you fail, you will be grateful to the West Garden. If you don't hold the hatred of the general, you will not be a human being."

"Zhang Rang jumped into the river and committed suicide, killing all the 2,000 Huangmen in the palace. Although the general was generous in his execution, his achievements in killing the thieves were enough to spread to history. I only regret that Huangmen was a disaster for a long time and it was difficult to eradicate the roots. Zhao Zhong and others were left to survive in the world. I am afraid that the Huangmen will rise again within ten years. At that time, we are old and we may find it difficult to fight against the enemy again." Zhang Jian shouted.

"Why have to wait ten years?" Yuan Shao said: "Now he has made an unresolved enemy with the eunuch. Either he dies or I die. If you cannot do anything to slaughter all the ten regular servants, you will be harmed by him in the future."

Zhang Jian asked, "What does the lieutenant want?"

"I'm not hiding it from Mr. Zhang, I have secretly agreed with the generals under the command of the general: I will kill the internal officials again."

"If things fail, what should I do?" Zhang Jian asked again.

"If it doesn't work, you should chase the general in Jiuquan." Yuan Shao said, "It's just death."

"The lieutenant must not act recklessly." Zhang Jian advised: "The ten generals have lived in the deep palace for a long time, and their followers are everywhere inside and outside. The general cannot win in one battle. The lieutenant has a single force, how can he fight?"

"Zhang Gong thought, what should we do?" Yuan Shao followed He Jin and killed the eunuchs before he could succeed. He was afraid that he would be harmed by him, so he was afraid. He also added the commander of the eight passes of Luoyang, and all of them joined the King of Ji Liu Bei. Seeing that the situation was over, he went his own way. He no longer had the same idea of ​​sharing the same hatred for the enemy. In a hurry, he came to the door and asked the party leader Zhang Jian for advice.

"The capital cannot be kept for a long time." Zhang Jian said, "Why not go out to be an outside official and guard the country? In this way, you can not only reorganize your troops, but also go out to avoid disaster. When there is a change in the capital, you will then raise troops to help."

Yuan Shao said, "In accordance with Mr. Zhang's opinion, where should we go?"

"You can be the prefect of Hedong." Zhang Jian told the reason in a casual manner: "Hedong County was established by Qin. Mang called Zhaoyang. It has roots and wet warehouses. It is 500 miles northwest of Luoyang. It is rich in salt and iron. In addition, Benchu ​​was once the Sili lieutenant, and Mu guarded Hedong, which was right at the right time."

Seeing that Yuan Shao was silent, he knew that he could not give up his wealth and honor in front of him, Zhang Jian did not say it. Now, the two relatives are fighting each other. Although Yuan Shao held the military power of the Northern Army and Xiyuan, it seemed to be of great importance. However, it is still unknown how many troops and horses under his command could be used for his own use.

"Why did the general die?" Zhang Jian suddenly asked.

"Beheaded by Bao Hong." Yuan Shao blurted out.

"Bao Hong, who is Bao?" Zhang Jian asked again.

"The cavalry captain in the Northern Army stationed the military academy." Yuan Shao seemed to have some understanding.

"Since they are soldiers of the court, why don't they obey the general's orders?" Zhang Jian asked again: "Why did the two thousand Jiangdong soldiers turn against each other?"

Yuan Shao suddenly realized: "Each person is his master."
