The Nameless of the Common Clans
Chapter 179: Internal strife in the Bingzhou Army
"General Chen sincerely came to vote, do you have a plan to help me at this time?" Dong Zhuo didn't ask for military power, but since you came to vote, you have to be serious and show your ability.
"Currently, Duke Dong is not trapped in Ding Yuan, but because his troops are not strong enough to deter Luoyang. Although the Yulin and Huben armies have surrendered, they all have concerns. If chaos breaks out, Duke Dong may not be able to give orders." Chen Mo said with a smile.
"General Chen, there is no need to worry. I have ordered my brave generals to come with their troops and they will arrive in Luoyang soon." Dong Zhuo said with a smile.
"How long?" Chen Mo looked at Dong Zhuo and asked, "Even if the Bingzhou Army surrenders to Duke Dong, if they find that Duke Dong's troops are few, they may not be able to contribute."
Dong Zhuo nodded helplessly. Although he had issued the order, it would take less than ten days and a half to get here from Guanzhong, and most of his troops would not be able to make it. And now the situation in Luoyang is not really stable. It will take more than ten days. , enough to cause many changes.
"Does General Chen have a solution?" Dong Zhuo asked.
"You can have your trusted generals lead the imperial army, and Dong Gong's soldiers and horses will go out at night and return in the day. It will appear that there is a constant supply of troops and horses under Dong Gong's command. Although it cannot be hidden all the time, it is enough to stabilize the situation in Luoyang." Chen Mo said with a smile.
Dong Zhuo and Li Ru looked at each other. Li Ru had mentioned this plan before, but he had never had time to use it. Li Ru nodded imperceptibly, and Dong Zhuo laughed loudly and said: "It is said that General Chen is a capable official of the Qing Dynasty. Now it seems that, Then Xu Zijiang must have underestimated General Chen and followed General Chen's plan."
"Excessive praise." Chen Mo smiled and shook his head and said: "The general does not agree with the abolition of Li Li, but the matter has come to this, and it is useless to persuade him at this time. The general only wants Luoyang to be stable, and the big man has no hope. There are twists and turns, I hope Mr. Dong will not disappoint anyone."
At the end of the sentence, Chen Mo looked at Dong Zhuo attentively. His destiny was 94 and his luck was 94.
This is really the person with the highest destiny and luck that Chen Mo has seen so far. Perhaps after this incident, it will depend on whether Dong Zhuo can condense his destiny. I just don’t understand why Lu Bu can condense his destiny. Dong Zhuo has become so popular now, but he still remains the same. There is no condensed destiny.
"General Chen doesn't believe in the late emperor's edict either?" Li Ru asked confused.
"I believe that Pan Yin came to see me." Chen Mo shook his head and said: "But this matter has nothing to do with the edict. I don't agree with the abolition of the edict. Firstly, the late emperor died not long ago and the country was in turmoil. At this time, it doesn't matter whether the late emperor stayed or not. The edict is issued, but it is never a wise move for anyone to abolish the establishment.”
"General Chen is saying that someone's background is not good enough?" Dong Zhuo narrowed his eyes.
"No, it has a certain relationship, but it is not the most important." Chen Mo stood up, looked at the two people and said: "Since the change of state pastoral governance last year, the imperial power has gradually declined, and the local real power has increased greatly. At this time, Dong Gong opened the door to the world. There are many things that many people want to do but dare not do. If Dong Gong cannot succeed, then after Dong Gong fails, the world will be in chaos. So... I am here to help Dong Gong stabilize the government as soon as possible. The only question is whether I can succeed or not. I don’t know, I just want to do my best for this big man and fulfill the righteousness of the emperor and his ministers!”
Dong Zhuo and Li Ru said solemnly when they heard this: "Don't worry, General Chen. Although Zhuo is not talented, he still hopes that I, a great man, can prosper for a long time."
I hope so...
Chen Mo didn't say these words, he just stood up and saluted Dong Zhuo: "It's getting late, Mr. Dong should have something to do, so I won't bother you anymore."
Dong Zhuo heard this and stood up to see Chen Mo off. He walked all the way to the door before saying goodbye.
"How credible are this person's words?" Dong Zhuo asked as he walked back with Li Ru and Hua Xiong, looking at Chen Mo's leaving figure.
"Six points." Li Ru thought for a while and said.
"So few?" Dong Zhuo looked at Li Ru in surprise. He was a little moved by Chen Mo just now.
"Although Chen Mo comes from a famous family, he has been poor since he was a child. He has been able to join the ranks of the gentry and reach his current status in Luoyang. Others may think that it is mostly luck, but judging from his actions today, this person is wise and wise. He is quite decisive and will not be confused by friendship. According to Confucianism, Chen Mo came to Luoyang and had a good relationship with the Yuan family. This time Yuan Shao even failed to use his tactics and finally lost power and left with his seal. However, Chen Mo came here to surrender without hesitation. It may be too much to say that he follows the trend of others, but he can see the situation clearly, and once he makes a decision, he will not be trapped by emotions. If his father-in-law loses power in the future, he will not hesitate to abandon his father-in-law today no matter how he treats Yuan Shao. " Li Ru smiled.
"Isn't this the case in the officialdom?" Dong Zhuo heard this but didn't care much. He smiled and said: "In this way, he is better than those scholars. I think this is good. Then Yuan Benchu himself should make constant decisions and not use good strategies. Now Abandoning the seal and leaving, Chen Mo did not fail him!"
That's true, but Li Ru still feels that Chen Mo is a little unkind, or can be said to be cold.
After Chen Mo left Dong Zhuo's camp, he went home directly. Now that Luoyang has experienced continuous turmoil, the whole city is much more depressed than before. The streets that used to be bustling with traffic are now deserted. Even the occasional pedestrians come and go in a hurry. They are no longer there. It's noisy and noisy again.
When I got home, I don't know if it was affected by outside influences, but even my home felt deserted. It was obviously spring and everything was recovering, but there was a sense of desolation in autumn.
The only thing that didn't change was the people. When Yun Si saw Chen Mo coming back, he quickly stepped forward to help Chen Mo undress.
"Mr. Cao came to look for my husband in the afternoon, but he was not there. Mr. Cao waited for a while and then left." Yun Si said while helping Chen Mo change his clothes.
"I will visit him tomorrow!" Chen Mo nodded and smiled. No matter whether it was right or wrong to surrender to Dong Zhuo, since he had already made the move, he had to do it well. If Dong Zhuo could really stabilize the situation and restore the prosperity of the Han Dynasty, then everything would be worth it. But if not, it would be easier for him to obtain Bingzhou from Dong Zhuo.
As Li Ru inferred, Chen Mo came to surrender to Dong Zhuo sincerely, but not without selfish motives. All of this was based on whether Dong Zhuo could stabilize the situation.
Just like Yuan Shao, if Yuan Shao could act decisively and control Luoyang before Dong Zhuo gained the upper hand, Chen Mo would continue to assist Yuan Shao and help him consolidate his power, but Yuan Shao's two consecutive inactions somewhat disappointed Chen Mo. Once Yuan Shao left, the troops in Luoyang fell into a situation of being leaderless. Neither Chen Mo nor Cao Cao could integrate the military power of Luoyang in a short period of time, let alone compete with Dong Zhuo. In order to end the chaos in Luoyang faster, Chen Mo chose to surrender to Dong Zhuo. At least, ending the melee in Luoyang as soon as possible can keep Luoyang and the royal family alive.
…
That night, Chen Mo slept soundly with his concubine in his arms, but in the Bingzhou camp, Li Su brought the Red Hare to see Lu Bu to show Dong Zhuo's sincerity.
"Fengxian, this is Dong Gong's favorite horse. It can travel a thousand miles a day and eight hundred miles a night. I heard that Fengxian, such a fierce general, was actually a clerk and didn't have a good horse to ride. I specially ordered Su to bring Red Hare to him as a gift." Li Su pointed at Red Hare and smiled.
"Good horse!" Lu Bu's eyes fell on Red Hare and couldn't move away. He grew up in the border since he was a child. He could tell the pros and cons of war horses at a glance. Naturally, he could see the value of Red Hare and couldn't help reaching out to touch it.
"Fengxian, be careful, this horse is fierce!" Li Su hurriedly wanted to stop him when he saw this, but was shocked to find that Lu Bu had pulled the reins and had already climbed onto the horse.
Red Hare is a different species of horse with an extremely fierce temperament. Dong Zhuo spent a lot of effort to tame this horse, but at this moment Lu Bu sat on the horse's back, letting Red Hare neigh and run back and forth, his legs tightly clamped on the horse's belly, urging the horse to run faster from time to time. After tossing for nearly half an hour, Red Hare seemed to have no strength and gradually stopped.
"What a pity, this horse has been tamed, and it has lost a lot of its wildness!" Lu Bu rode back, dismounted, shook his head and sighed, and he felt a little unsatisfied.
"Fengxian!" Li Su breathed a sigh of relief, came to Lu Bu and smiled, "Dong Gong's sincerity has been delivered, Fengxian you..."
"Don't worry, I'm determined, I will follow you to join Dong Gong tonight!" Lu Bu smiled while touching Red Hare's mane.
Li Su was overjoyed when he heard this, and just as he was about to speak, hurried footsteps suddenly sounded outside the tent. Lu Bu took Li Su out of the tent and saw Ding Yuan leading his personal guards to surround his tent. Li Su's face changed drastically when he saw this.
"Meet the general!" Lu Bu saluted Ding Yuan.
"Fengxian!" Ding Yuan looked at Lu Bu, then at the Red Hare behind Lu Bu, raised his thick eyebrows, and said coldly: "The horse behind you, if I am not mistaken, how could Dong the thief's mount be here?"
"Mr. Dong gave it to me." Lu Bu touched the mane of Red Hare, looked at Ding Yuan and said: "In addition, I have promised Mr. Dong to join his army. General, you are here at the right time, find another wise man!"
"Asshole, Dong Zhuo is a traitor, you dare to betray me!? Catch him!" Ding Yuan was furious when he heard this and shouted.
"Who dares!?" Lu Bu's eyes turned cold, and his cold eyes swept across everyone's faces. A group of soldiers were swept by his eyes, and their hearts were chilled and they did not move.
"You..." Ding Yuan was upset when he saw this, and pointed at Lu Bu and shouted: "Dong Zhuo is a traitor to the country. If you help him, won't you be an enemy of the world?"
"General Ding, this is wrong!" Li Su saw that Lu Bu's words calmed the situation, and the soldiers of Bingzhou around him did not dare to step forward. He was determined in his heart, and smiled when he heard the words: "Mr. Dong is the same as General Ding. He was summoned to the capital. Now he is also ordered by the late emperor to rectify Luoyang. How can he be called a traitor to the country? On the contrary, General Ding, without the imperial edict, provoked the war without authorization, and he has a ulterior motive!"
"Ridiculous, Dong Zhuo is doing evil things, besieging the palace, and doing things that are good at deposing and enthroning. How can he not be a traitor to the country!" Ding Yuan looked at Lu Bu and said grimly: "If you can stop at the brink today , I can still spare your life, but if you are stubborn, don't blame me for taking your life!"
"With you?" Lu Bu sneered, jumped on his horse, took the Fang Tian Hua Ji from his personal attendant and pointed at Ding Yuan, saying: "Since entering Bingzhou, you have not established your kindness and trust, but only know how to do things for your own selfishness, and disregard the lives of our soldiers. I am a good man, and the Hu bandits I have killed over the years are not ordinary people, but you use me as a clerk. You reward and punish unevenly, and have no kindness to our soldiers. Why do you want us to serve you? Soldiers of the three armies, I am invited by Mr. Dong today to serve under his command. If you are willing to follow me, we will still be brothers in the future, but if you are not willing, we will meet again on the battlefield in the future. Don't blame Lu Bu for not talking about the friendship of our past comrades!"
