Chapter 005 Murderous Yingye
Zhang Liao was dormant at the North Military Academy, waiting for a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to come. At that time, he will soar and achieve world-renowned achievements.
He knew when and where opportunities would appear, so he had eager expectations.
Nowadays, he can only keep his clumsy and keep his strength under his command all day long.
"Hold the weapons in your hand tightly and stare at the enemy who appears in sight. Once you attack, you must kill with one blow. Don't be timid and avoid the enemy's edge. Only those who are brave and fearless can survive on the battlefield. Those who are stolen are not only shameful, but also die faster."
Gao Shun Ao stood up at the horse and conveyed military orders to the iron cavalry under his command, and then the cavalry rushed forward with a cone formation, which shocked the hearts of the indomitable momentum.
Cao Xing, Song Xian and Cheng Lian each trained their cavalry, inside and outside the camp, and the smell of Xiaoxiao swept across the world.
Zhang Liao held a double hook iron spear in his hand and stood between heaven and earth. Every time the iron spear is swung, it is filled with a thousand pounds of force, with a powerful momentum and murderous intent.
Xu Rong watched Zhang Liao lead the iron cavalry to practice the rushing formation, and his heart was filled with passion. Sometimes he applauded and sometimes he spoke for praise.
Zhang Liao, who was covered in sanitation, stopped resting until he was sweating heavily.
He came straight to Xu Rong and asked in a competitive manner: "Person Xu, how powerful is the iron cavalry under my command compared to the iron cavalry you ruled?"
"It is a little worse than that. If you want to be brave and fearless of death, the only thing you lack at present is the hardships of life and death. If you can go through the battle formation for a long time in the future, you will definitely be able to forge a powerful army." Xu Rong gave an objective evaluation.
Zhang Liao smiled maliciously and said, "Who has a better chance of winning when you and me collide with each other?"
"If Zhang Enshi plans to bully the few with more, if both cavalry are in full swing and do not use conspiracy to fight head-on, your chances of victory will naturally be stronger than me."
Xu Rong once again gave an objective and fair evaluation, and then said seriously: "The iron spear is like an arm using a finger in your hand, and it can already gather a thousand pounds of force. It is no problem to seize the flag and kill the generals. I have a small suggestion or not?"
Zhang Liao said seriously: "Person Xu is asking for advice."
"All weapons have advantages and disadvantages. No weapon can adapt to the battlefield under all circumstances. If you want to be invincible, you must understand the skills of using other weapons and be clear about them when facing the enemy in the future." Xu Rong told this.
"I will keep my instructions in mind," said Xu.
Zhang Liao nodded seriously and promised that as long as he could master the killing skills of other weapons, he could combine his own killing moves to predict the enemy first. Even if he had some chance, it would be of great help in the game of life and death.
In the following days, Zhang Liao and Xu Rong often talked about military tactics and battle formations, and sometimes they were so anxious that they had to eat and sleep. Some of his wonderful ideas often made Xu Rong's eyes lit up.
Under his words and deeds, he also instilled in Gao Shun and others with his own use and understanding of military strategies. He often quarrels when he disagrees.
Under Zhang Liao's intentional management, his friendship with Gao Shun and others became increasingly deeper, and his friendship with Xu Rong became increasingly deeper.
In a blink of an eye, the sixth year of Zhongping was reached.
On April 11, Emperor Ling of Han Liu Hong died in the Jiade Hall of Nangong. Under his deliberate guidance, He Jin and Jian Shuo formed a vague state of balance. As his death was instantly broken, the breath of gunpowder instantly spread in Luoyang City.
"Prince Liu Xie should be the emperor."
When Liu Hong died, he left a will to appoint Jian Shuo as the minister of orphanage.
Jian Shuo was very afraid of He Jin, and now he was afraid. If he could not support Prince Liu Xie as the emperor, once Prince Liu Bian succeeded to the throne, his doomsday would come in a blink of an eye.
Although the new army in Xiyuan was under his control, like Yuan Shao and Cao Cao, he had a close personal relationship with He Jin on weekdays, so he did not dare to use it with confidence.
So he secretly discussed with the ten regular attendants and decided to eradicate He Jin.
"The news of Your Majesty's death is blocked, and the emperor's edict is sent to Xuan He Jin to enter the palace, and then kill He Jin under the palace gate. The major event can be decided."
As soon as Zhang Rang said that, he received common approval from Jian Shuo and others.
The Ten Generals were in charge of the imperial guards of the palace, and the news of Liu Hong's death was concealed, even Empress He, Prince Liu Bian and Liu Xie were not aware of it.
When He Jin was about to enter the palace, Sima Pan, a military commander under Jian Shuo, left the palace in private and said to He Jin Gaomi: "Your Majesty has passed away. Now Jian Shuo discusses with the ten regular attendants to secretly not send a funeral. He forged an edict to General Xuan enter the palace, and wanted to stop the future troubles and enthrone the prince Liu Xie as the emperor."
After hearing this, He Jin's air conditioning rushed from the soles of his feet to his forehead.
Pan Yin's heart is looking for He Jin, and He Jin is an old friend in his early years and has a strong personal relationship.
He Jin was grateful to Pan Yin and rushed to recruit civil and military ministers to the palace, with heavy troops behind him.
Even though the Ten Constables were brave, they did not dare to attack all civil and military officials. The Ten Constables, who had missed the opportunity to kill He Jin, turned to Empress He, and Jian Shuo was captured at the foot of He Jin at a desperate situation.
"How dare you, the eunuchs, die, seek my life?"
He Jin scolded him angrily, then pulled out the sharp sword from his waist and cut off Jian Shuo's head.
The 14-year-old prince Liu Bian was ignorant, and under the leadership of He Jin, he accepted the bowing of civil and military officials and inherited the throne before Liu Hong's coffin.
Liu Hong's will to abolish the eldest son and establish the young son, and died in failure due to Jian Shuo's death.
The ten eunuchs hid in the palace and couldn't escape.
He Jin temporarily put down the butcher knife he raised. Nowadays, Liu Hong's funeral will be a major event for the country, and any contradictions or conflicts will be triggered in the face of the national funeral.
On June 17, Liu Hong was buried in Wenling.
After the funeral of the country, the tense murderous intent suddenly boiled, filling the palace and the outside.
He Jin asked Empress Dowager He for the purpose of eunuchs, hoping to eliminate all eunuchs and reshape the Han Dynasty's world, so that the eunuch group that had suffered for more than a hundred years disappeared from the palace.
Empress Dowager He was not allowed to eliminate eunuchs. She did not allow the eunuchs to be eliminated. It was not that she only favored eunuchs, but that her source of power was basically concentrated on eunuchs. In the eyes of the princes, she was born a humble background and there were countless people who despise her.
After the identity of the butcher's daughter was exposed, Liu Hong almost deposed her under the condemnation of the scholars and officials. Thanks to the help of the eunuchs, he was spared.
The same was true for Queen Mother He poisoned the beautiful Wang.
Now that Empress Dowager He is in charge of the court and has great power, it is impossible to cut off the obedient loyal dog of the eunuch group and trust those literati who despise her much.
After Liu Hong's death, He Jin's mentality was inflated. In the past, Liu Hong could dominate his life, death, honor and disgrace with just one word. Now the situation has changed greatly. The young emperor of Han Liu Bian was unable to participate in government affairs, like a puppet. All the important policies of a country were concentrated in his hands, as if the power of the monarch was in his hands, and life, death and death were all taken away in his thoughts.
"What a glory it is to perform the power of a king as a general."
He Jin wanted the highest power and held the king's power firmly in his hands. The obstacle of the eunuchs blocking them must be eliminated.
In the General's Mansion, He Jin announced the meaning of Empress Dowager He to the public, and then asked everyone for advice: "I want to eliminate all the eunuchs, what if I do?"
Yuan Shao suggested: "Heroes from all over the world can be summoned to the capital to eliminate all the eunuchs. This is due to the general trend and the empress dowager will not be refused."
He Jin followed Yuan Shao's plan and ignored Cao Cao and Chen Lin's dissuasion.
So, He Jin issued an edict to summon Dong Zhuo and Ding Yuan to enter the capital to capture and kill eunuchs.
When Liu Hong was in power, He Jin did not have the idea of eunuchs, and even had no concern about his sister Empress Dowager He and his younger brother General Cheqi He Miao and his eunuchs had a close relationship with him. He also married his younger sister to Zhang Rang's adopted son Zhang Feng as his wife. He was good at dancing and wandering between eunuchs and scholars, maintaining the stability of the court.
There were countless people who advised him to get rid of eunuchs, and the nearest one was Kuai Yue.
The situation is very different today. In order to fulfill the monarchy, his ambitions no longer allow the eunuch group to continue to occupy the government and the country.
He did not want to roll his eyes with Empress Dowager He, and ordered foreign soldiers to enter the capital to force Empress Dowager He to eliminate the eunuchs and then drive foreign soldiers out of Luoyang. This is a solution to both sides.
In the palace, the news that He Jin asked for an eunuch to get rid of the eunuch spread like wildfire. The ten regular attendants were immediately frightened and anxious.
The Ten Constant Assess begged Empress Dowager He to issue an order to entrust He Jinjin to the palace, and used the excuse of apology from the General in person to beg the General to spare their lives. Empress Dowager He obeyed the eunuch's request to resolve the grudges between He Jin and the Ten Constant Assess in order to achieve the goal of non-aggression.
After receiving the imperial edict, He Jin went to the palace to meet Empress Dowager He. In his opinion, the power of the world was under his control. The ten regular attendants were only begging for life and did not dare to have ill intentions towards him.
He Jin, who was proud and satisfied, misjudged the situation and was surrounded by Zhang Rang and Duan Gui at the entrance of the Jiade Hall, and cut him into several sections.
Zhang Rang cut off He Jin's head, threw He Jin's head down the palace wall, and pronounced a forgery to the outside of the palace, saying, "He Jin is treasoned and is now punished. The rest of the followers are all in the mercy. Please lead the troops back to the camp and follow the imperial orders to wait for rewards."
"Today, killing eunuchs and clearing the dynasty."
Yuan Shao yelled angrily and immediately ordered his troops to attack the palace.
He Jin's general Wang Kuang followed.
Yuan Shu's follower.
Cao Cao's follower.
There was a sudden chaos inside and outside the palace, and the war was raging.
