[016] Masked Infantry
Since the publication of the painting "The Legend of the Sons of Immortals" and became popular all over the world, Dong Zhuo's name has been circulated in the two prefectures of Youbing. He was gradually known to the people of the northern region.
However, what really made Dong Zhuo famous and Wei Jiayou merged was his actions after he took office.
On September 12, Dong Zhuo took over Gaoliu City, the capital of [Daijun]. It happened that the Xianbei in western Liaoning invaded the border, plundered people and plundered property.
At this time, although Tan Shihuai died, his remaining power remained. His grandson Qianman was young, so Kuitou had Kuitou's political power. Kuitou had more courage and mediocre strategies. Although it was difficult to convince the public, he at least maintained the situation of the Xianbei alliance between the East, Central and Western countries.
For this reason, even if the Xianbei who invaded the border this time was only a branch of the Xianbei in the western region, there were less than 2,000 cavalrymen. The Han army was still as usual, continuing deep ditches, building high walls, closing doors and doors, and not fighting with them.
Seeing this, Dong Zhuo was furious. He ignored the dissuasion of the county chief and led Hua Xiong, Hu Zhen, Li Jue and other generals, led more than a hundred personal soldiers and determined to leave the city.
The chief minister was shocked and hurriedly summoned the guards in the city to prepare to leave the city to rescue the new prefect who had just arrived and acted recklessly. However, before the soldiers in the city were well prepared, a shocking roar came from outside the city.
The chief secretary and the captain on the top of the city hurriedly looked over. He saw that the prefect Dong's eyes were wide open and his beard and hair were wide open, like a furious lion, roaring suddenly!
[Gaoliu County Town] There are more than 24,000 soldiers and civilians, and they are now scattered in various parts of the city, either helping to defend the city or hiding at home.
When the roars came, all the people were shocked.
The sound is bright and bright, and it is still clearly visible after several miles apart. It is also shrill and violent, not like a human voice. When ordinary people hear it, they are frightened.
This is still the case several miles away, not to mention the Xianbei plundering cavalry opposite to it.
In an instant, the two thousand Xianbei people felt a ferocious giant beast leaping in front of the formation, then opened its bloody mouth and roared towards it.
It seems like there is a fishy storm, and it is full of saliva!
口! 口! 口!
With the sorrow of war horses, two or three hundred frightened Xianbei cavalrymen hurriedly stopped their horses and turned around and fled in all directions.
The Xianbei army was in chaos and a little panicked. They hit others head-on and fell off the back of the horse. Before they could get up, they were trampled on by the frightened war horse, broken ribs, broken neck, and lost their voice.
The Xianbei leader was shocked and angry, scolded loudly, and shot and killed several escapers one after another to stop the decline.
The leader was about to gather the remaining troops, but he heard the personal guards exclaiming, "Be careful, sir." He looked in the sound and saw that the fat leader of the Han army opposite who had "sounded more than ferocious beasts" had already led the crowd to attack.
The Xianbei army formation, which had not yet been reorganized, was like a paper-paste clay sculpture in front of the powerful Han cavalry. In just two rushes, it had penetrated the entire army and killed dozens of feet away from the Xianbei leader.
The left and right exclaimed, but the Xianbei leader who had been through many battles was not at all confused.
The Han people were fierce, but in the end they were only a hundred cavalry. Although the Xianbei was in chaos, there were still a thousand five.
The gap of more than ten times can be enough to smooth out the impact of morale.
"Although the tiger alone is strong, it is hard to defeat a group of wolves. Everyone," the leader drew his sword in his hand, and was about to use his words to inspire the soldiers to revive their flags and surround the enemy, but he saw the fat Han army inexplicably swing a knife into the open space.
Then, three ice wheels suddenly appeared and swirled rapidly.
Magic? Illusion?
Although the Xianbei leader did not understand the reason, he did not dare to neglect and evade. However, it was too late, and the spiraling ice wheel passed through his body.
Then, the frozen air was everywhere in the sky, and a stream of cold air was growing on the path of the ice wheel. An indescribable coldness flowed into the body. Amid the screams of the personal guards, the Xianbei leader was frozen in the white frozen air.
The next moment, the Han cavalry rushed past and beheaded with a knife.
Then the Xianbei was defeated, and the cavalry scattered like birds and beasts. Prefect Dong took advantage of the situation to cover up and kill countless people. When he returned to the city, the people of Gaoliu cheered, and praised him as "the children of the immortals, who are famous for their own reputation."
At that night, at the dust banquet, all officials competed to toast, and the atmosphere was pleasant.
The county chief was a little worried and said, "Winter is approaching now, and the Xianbei people are short of food, so they will inevitably lead their troops south to plunder grain. Although the envoy won the first battle, he also gave the Xianbei people a reason to raise troops. Don't take it lightly."
Dong Zhuo drank the glass of Chinese American wine in one go, laughing and said, "Shi Shi, don't worry, come and have a drink with Zhuo!"
On the second day, Li Ru was promoted to the county magistrate and ordered him to stay behind [Gao Liu] to handle the government affairs in the county. However, Dong Zhuo, despite the dissuasion of the Chief Secretariat and others, crossed the Sanggan River to the north and went to the Northern Yi. This time, in addition to the generals of Huaxiong, more than a hundred cavalrymen, there were more than fifty infantry wearing armor and helmets, and all faces covered.
The prefect Dong left here and returned seven days later. However, when he returned, it caused a sensation in Gaoliu, Shenhe, Pingyi and other counties.
Whether it was Dong Zhuo, Hua Xiong, Hu Zhen, Li Jue and other generals, or more than a hundred cavalry and hundreds of "masked" infantrymen, each of them had five or six heads hanging on their horses.
The brave people looked at each one and found that they were all young and strong Xianbei with yellow beards and yellow heads. So the people of the county cheered in unison and said, "Prince Dong is mighty!"
When he returned to Gaoliu City, the chief secretary and the lieutenant were all worshipped.
Dong Zhuo rested in the city for five days, and then ordered more than 30 cavalrymen to stay in the city and go on a war again.
Ten days later, he beheaded 600 people and returned. Behind him, more than 200 "masked" infantrymen were added.
This time, when he returned to the city, the prefect Dong ordered Li Ru to establish the [Yan King Temple], and at the same time, he suddenly promoted the rules and regulations. However, those who were swearing and harming the people and those who were wise and foreign tribes would be severely punished and refused to forgive him.
After waiting for a few more days, Dong Zhuo left thirty cavalry again to assist the county magistrate Li Ru in charge of politics. Then, he went west to Yanmen Pass and went north to fight against the thieves.
In just two months, the northern expedition was more than ten times, and dozens of tribes in the western Xianbei were massacred by the prefect Dong and captured nearly one-third of them. Even in a battle in mid-October, Dong's prefect pointed his troops straight at the Khan Mountain.
The Xianbei lord was furious and sent more than 10,000 troops to kill him on the banks of the Qiqiu River. However, the two sides fought for a day and night, but the final result was that thousands of Xianbei people were killed and injured. Dong Zhuo and hundreds of soldiers easily broke through and returned to Dai County.
At this point, Dong Zhongying's reputation resounded throughout the north. Countless heroes and heroes admired him. Many people rushed to Gaoliu and wanted to enter Dong Zhuo's tent.
The young man who was called "Guang Ren" was also admired by Prefect Dong, and he also wanted to follow him to the northern border. Unfortunately, my mother refused.
"I, Tianchou, will never give up!" said the young man.

Luoyang, Yong'an Palace.
Today, Empress Dowager Dong's fiftieth birthday was not the birthday of Jiazi, so she only called the emperor, General He, relatives of Dong's family, Empress He and a group of concubines, set up a banquet in the palace, which was lively.
Liu Xie, Princess Wannian, Liu Bian and [the capable advocate] Biyue were also at the table. However, the three brothers and sisters were not used to the atmosphere at the banquet, and when they had free time, they ran out one after another.
In the backyard of Yong'an, Liu Bian called [Immortal Rider], took off the [Shuishi Tricycle], and gave it to Liu Mo, the Wannian Princess.
Liu Mo was overjoyed and said repeatedly: "Thank you, brother!"
She is also a playful person. When Du Luoluo was in Beijing, the two were called sisters, and they rode their horses every day, fighting with each other, and fighting against each other, causing trouble for the powerful and powerful people in Luoyang.
However, Liu Mo is different from Du Luoluo who is "moving sick" and her "car sense" is very good. She can operate it easily after just riding three or five rounds in the back garden, and even dares to try to drift the car.
Liu Xie, who had been behind the two, also wanted to ride a bicycle, but Liu Mo did not allow it. So he summoned a three-foot-high foal, chased the [tricycle] and ran all over the garden.
Liu Bianze and Biyue sat quietly in the garden, watching the two of them stalking, laughing and making noises.
At the gate of the back garden, Jian Shuo of Huangmen was waiting here. At the beginning, he smiled happily. But when he couldn't see for a long time, he frowned.
