The brothers who traveled westward in those years

Chapter 296 0297, General Who Kills Pigs and Sheep

As the saying goes, those who are stunned are afraid of being violent, those who are violent are afraid of dying, and those who are desperate are afraid of only half life.

Many people are afraid of He Jin because He Jin is ruthless.In this intriguing officialdom, if one is not ruthless, one cannot stand firm.What's more, as a general, He Jin has no means, so how can he manage the army.Without an army loyal to oneself, how can we protect this great river and mountain?

There are many people who are afraid of He Jin, but even more people look down on He Jin.Because everyone will compare, who has more good things, or who has a higher official position.But as long as they compare themselves with He Jin, they will use their noble background to belittle He Jin's lowliness.

A butcher who kills pigs and sheep, what qualifications does he have to compare with them.Although he is a great general now, many people just look down on him from the bottom of their hearts.So what if he's a great general, he won't be honored by his sister, Empress He.If his sister hadn't been Empress He, He Jin wouldn't be able to get to this position in ten lifetimes.

ten months ago
Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty convened a meeting of ten permanent attendants, and the main topic was how to control the military power of General He Jin.Now He Jin has 10,000+ people under his command, and his military tent is the closest to Luoyang City.Although he is his wife's elder brother, this kind of thing is still uncomfortable for Han Lingdi.

A guy who butchers pigs and sheep holds heavy soldiers. If he had a whim that day, wouldn't Luoyang City be very dangerous.What's more, Han Lingdi never liked He Jin.But Empress He is now a queen, and it would be unreasonable not to let He Jin be promoted.

The most powerful winds in the world are not tornadoes and typhoons, but pillow winds.Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty loved and hated He Jin at the same time. He loved because He Jin was not a man with a lot of eyes.And he was very obedient, as long as it was ordered by Emperor Han Ling, He Jin would do it right away.

I hate it because He Jin is a standard reckless man.If he was still the butcher who slaughtered pigs and sheep, his recklessness would not bring much consequence to him.However, he is now a general with a large army in his hands, and this matter is much more complicated than imagined.Maybe it is a very common thing in the eyes of others, but it can become a particularly troublesome thing in He Jin's hands.Maybe it will get worse and worse, and it will not end in the end.

Emperor Han Ling held a meeting with Shi Changshi and finally made a decision.Calling all his men to gather in the West Garden, he decided to create an innovative military system.

Where is West Garden?Xiyuan was the place where Emperor Ling of Han made money, and many wealthy people would visit Xiyuan every day.Of course, there is only one purpose, and that is to buy officials.How much money you have depends on the price of the official position. If you are suitable, you can pay for the position. If you are not suitable, you can return the money and then choose.

That's right, things are so miraculous, Xiyuan is the place where Emperor Ling of Han specially used to buy and sell officials.He is the big brother of this Wang Chao, no one has his rights, and he is the only one who dares to do this but no one cares about him.Emperor Han Ling only believed in one truth, that is, what is in his pocket is his own.

Everyone said that the whole world belonged to his Liu family, but he couldn't put the whole world in his pocket.Especially after the Yellow Turban Uprising, Emperor Han Ling became less courageous.The only thing that can calm him down is money, and the only thing that can make him feel at ease is money.

When fighting against the Yellow Turban Army, Han Lingdi paid for the military expenses out of his own pocket.Soldiers, horses, food and grass all cost money, and the treasury at that time was already out of money.Because the money is in the small treasury of Emperor Han Ling, his small treasury is much larger than the national treasury.In other words, in fact, the small treasury of Emperor Han Ling should be called the treasury.

At that time, there were three people who were relatively famous, and they all made a lot of achievements later.One was Huangfusong, and this buddy pushed him violently.He killed Zhang Bao and Zhang Liang one after another. If Zhang Jiao hadn't died of illness on the way, he probably wouldn't be able to pick out Huangfusong's Wuzhishan.One is Lu Zhi, a Confucian scholar who is good at the art of war.

There is another one named Zhu Jun, the three brothers are more capable than the other.At that time, they were also generals of the Eastern Han Dynasty. If it weren't for the Yellow Turban Uprising, they would not have stood out in that era.They should thank the Yellow Turban Army for giving them a chance, but the ending was not very happy.

Who is Han Lingdi?It is the eldest brother of this dynasty.Everyone should listen to him, and you must do what he says.Suppressing the Yellow Turban Uprising, no matter whether he wins or loses, he feels distressed.If he won, it was his money that rewarded the three armies.If he lost, it was his money that was spent to appease the soldiers.

Wars are meant to be fought for money, and without money, everything is useless.It doesn't matter if you have money, as soon as you send troops, it will cost 10,000+ or ​​hundreds of thousands.Not to mention charging into the battle, even if so many people stay still, the consumption of a day is enough to hurt Emperor Han Ling.

Outside the military tent, He Jin asked the man: "The Yellow Turban Rebellion has been suppressed, do you think the big man can return to his former prosperity?"

The man said, "Do you want to hear the truth or a lie?"

He Jin said with a smile: "Don't be a fool with me. Although I don't study much, I have been in the officialdom these years. I have dealt with so many old foxes. Even if I am a monk halfway through, I can read a few scriptures now."

The man smiled lightly and analyzed the matter to He Jin.

The Yellow Turban Army revolted, and the imperial court had no strength to quell the chaos.While dispatching the three-way army to dispatch troops, an order was also issued to the thirteen states.The Yellow Turban Army spread across eight states and counties, and the imperial court ordered all states and counties to organize their own armed forces.But the imperial court will give rewards to any forces that can quell the chaos.

There is no need to think about asking for money or food. Except for the three-way army sent by the imperial court, no force can take a copper coin or a grain of food from Emperor Han Ling.But Emperor Han Ling was not a stingy emperor, and those people didn't care about money and food.They want an official position, or a good name.

Fame is the least valuable thing, because it cannot be exchanged for money.At least in the eyes of Emperor Han Ling, that's why he opened up the canonization without restriction.But all those who have made great contributions to the suppression of the chaos will be appointed as officials according to their requirements.

All of a sudden, there are so many people with high official positions in the local area, and they all shake hands with armed forces of different sizes.This is a threat to the imperial court, and this threat will intensify.

Once the car is started, the car can't be stopped. This matter has been developing for a year.The forces of all parties have grown stronger, and the local armed forces have begun to take shape.The imperial army is the main force, and the local forces are just taking advantage of the fire to loot.

These words are not fabricated out of thin air, but based on facts.The imperial court has long issued documents to let the states and counties organize their own armed forces to quell the chaos.But the one who killed the backbone of the Yellow Turban Army was Huangfusong who was sent by Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty to quell the chaos.Although Lu Zhi and Zhu Jun also worked hard, they were not very lucky.

In today's world, there are already signs of troubled times.The man persuaded He Jin that he should make a decision earlier.If you hesitate, you will definitely miss a big event. If you want to achieve a great event, you must attack decisively.

Don't care what other people think, everything they say is bullshit.They only do what they want to do, and let future generations judge whether they are right or wrong.

After hearing what the man said, He Jin began to think about another matter.This person was also one of the eight school lieutenants conferred by Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty, but now he is very close to He Jin.If He Jin's guess is correct, I'm afraid this person has no good intentions for him.

The eight captains of Xiyuan were the eight captains with real power established by Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty to control the military power of the general He Jin and to consolidate the status of the royal family.

Although they are only captains, they are equivalent to princes to a certain extent.But at that time they had no one, and everything needed to be started from scratch.

Xiao Huangmen Han Shuo was named the captain of the upper army, Yuan Shao, the general of Zhonglang, was named the captain of the Chinese army, and Bao Hong, the captain of Tuenqi, was named the captain of the lower army.Yilang Cao Cao was appointed Captain of the Dian Army, Zhao Rong was named Captain of the Left of the Assistant Army, Feng Fang was named Captain of the Right of the Assistant Army, Xia Mou was named Captain of the Left, and Chunyuqiong was named Captain of the Right.

Han Shuo commanded the eight captains of Xiyuan and was entrusted with important tasks.Not only the eighth school lieutenant had to obey Han Shuo's command, but even the general He Jin was under his command.

It is one thing to give orders, but another to listen to them or not.Emperor Han Ling knew very well that He Jin would not listen to Han Shuo, but the eight captains would not listen to He Jin either.This was enough, given the eight of them some time, they would surely be able to form an army to counter He Jin.

In fact, Han Shuo has more power than He Jin, but he is afraid of He Jin from the bottom of his heart.It is said that He Jin was born as a butcher, killing people is like killing pigs and sheep.He is skilled in killing people without blinking an eye, and anyone who dares to challenge him will end badly.Han Shuo naturally didn't dare to command He Jin, as long as he didn't come to make trouble for him, he would be satisfied.

Emperor Hanling had only one breath left, and Shi Changshi needed to find a new master for himself.The situation cannot be allowed to go beyond their control, otherwise none of them will have a good fruit to eat.

For so many years in the palace, the number of people they have offended cannot be counted.When they gained power, no one dared to do anything to them. Once they lost power, not to mention those princes and ministers, maybe even some young eunuchs would not let them go.Their sense of security is the most sensitive to these three words, so plan ahead.

Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty told them that he hoped to make his youngest son Liu Xie the next emperor.But no one in the court can assist the new emperor to ascend the throne, because most of the court is for Empress He.If Emperor Han Ling lived for a few more years, he would definitely be able to train Liu Xie to be the next emperor.

He's running out of time, and the ministers don't deserve his trust.This matter can only be handed over to Shi Changshi, and this matter will only be handed over to Shi Changshi.According to the practice of this dynasty, the heir to the throne should be the eldest son.But Emperor Han Ling wanted to abolish the elders and establish the younger ones, so he needed to settle the eldest son's family first.

Zhang asked them to gather for a while, and discussed the matter in Emperor Han Ling's bedroom.Emperor Han Ling listened from the sidelines, and he could only keep it if he had any opinions.

The big guys hit it off immediately, and if Liu Bian lost his capital by destroying the He family, wouldn't he be able to make Liu Xie the new emperor.

There is only one big tree in the He family, and this tree has grown for more than ten years.The roots are intertwined and the branches are lush. There are only two ways to get rid of this big tree first.

First, dig the roots, which takes a long time.But as long as you persevere, one day the tree will be dug down.But they didn't have that much time, and Han Lingdi couldn't last until then.

Second, cut off the tree head, directly cut off the tree head.It is much easier to cut off the top of the tree and then clean up the trunk and roots.

Finally, after unanimous agreement, everyone chose the second way.They were all afraid of He Jin, but they had to deal with He Jin first.Life is sailing against the current, if you don't advance, you will retreat.There is no such thing as standing still, and there is no such thing as maintaining neutrality.

It is a good thing to be neutral in many cases, but sometimes it will face a dilemma.Choosing one side has a 50.00% chance of winning or losing, and if neither side chooses, the final outcome must be [-]% victory or [-]% failure.
