After the death of Dong Zhuo, because of Yan Qing's deliberate abduction of the poisonous scholar Jia Dang, and arranged in advance for Gao Shun to kill Li Jue's four generals, the remaining parties were either purged together or pardoned for their lesser crimes.
Without the wise counselor who came up with the poisonous plan, and without the strong Li Jue's four leaders, how could Zhang Ji's isolated and unsupported army alone make any waves?
He saw that the momentum has gone, hurriedly disbanded the troops, only with the most die-hard loyal to him a small group of people, non-stop fleeing back to his hometown Wuwei, began a low-profile hiding days.
But to ask a man who is used to being a rampaging bandit to learn to wash his hands of this and live his life in peace is undoubtedly a pipe dream.
Followed Dong Zhuo's eastern expedition to the north of those days, a "full of evil" evaluation, Zhang Ji absolutely deserved: to know Chenliu, Yingchuan and other places will be full of devastation, and he broke Zhu Jun the year before last, let his subordinates wantonly burned and plundered have a lot to do with.
After a small half a year in fear, Zhang Ji first learned that the fear of the first fierce general Lu Fengxian, did not stay in Chang'an to protect the meaning of the Holy Driver, but asked to go to the far away Yuzhou to report to his duties, a lot of nourishment to be a state governor.
Except for the aging old general Huang Fu Song, there are only a few military generals in Chang'an who can be of great use, on the contrary, there are a large number of civil officials who are not engaged in production and can engage in verbal sparring over trivial matters. Moreover, after the scourge of Dong Zhuo, they have to restore their own vitality, so how can they possibly spare sufficient manpower to conquer Dong Zhuo's old party that has hidden in his hometown in Xiliang?
As soon as Zhang Ji figured out these joints, his mind was revitalized.
He continued to wait and see what would happen, while with his nephew Zhang Xiu together with the collection of the old troops, did not wait long, waiting for what seemed to be an auspicious sign - Ma Han two troops to go to the outskirts of Chang'an nuisance nuisance natives, the imperial court is really weak, not only did not organize a military force to drive away, but sent a civil official to announce to the Ma Han duo's enthronement, like Ma Teng from the small partial general changed into a mighty general of the West! The small partial general, turned into a mighty and loud general of conquering the west!
Watching Ma Teng and Han Sui return with a joyful harvest, Zhang Ji was both staggered and couldn't help but thump his heart.
It should be known that Ma Teng had previously sacrificed his life for the court, and had fought hard to quell the rebellion of the Di Dao people's kingdom, as well as the Qiang people, but the reward he received was nothing more than that, which was considered stingy. Now, he has not made an inch of achievement, but he just sent some men to plunder civilians to scare the officials in the court, but he got this miraculous effect.
Although Zhang Ji has a wolf's ambition, but also a little means, in the Dong Zhuo account, but it is a common dog in the eyes of others, neither like Niu Fu as its son-in-law and deeply trusted, but also not as deep as the chief planner Li Ru won the admiration, and even more can not be with the world's unparalleled personal martial arts courage and later on, all the way up the promotion of Lv Bu, compared to the spring winds of the rapid.
Extremely limited presence, a no-brainer.
On his point of lack of force and commanding ability, completely not by the sight of all Lu Bu in the eyes, even if it is familiar with the history of the Three Kingdoms Yan Qing, on the deepest impression of Zhang Ji's place, but also only his wife Zou's look like heavenly fairies.
History in Wancheng, she charmed Cao Cao seven dizzy, happy not want to go home, the result is to anger her nephew Zhang Xiu, the latter listened to Jia's plan, will be delayed in the tenderness of Cao Cao fled, not only into a rare defeat, even the beloved eldest son Cao Ao Ang and personal bodyguard Dianwei's life, all to protect him and lost this.
And Zhang Ji examined himself, felt that although far less powerful than the two parties of Ma Han, these days but also gathered a thousand old troops, all of whom are ranger scattered courage.
Not to mention that the court was scared by Dong Zhuo's atrocities, basically more than one thing is better than one thing, to put the matter to rest, with his men, even if they can not fight with Huangfu Song's 4,000 elite troops, if only looting the people, not only is more than enough, scattered to escape is also extremely convenient.
So just sent two military positions out of the young emperor Liu Xie and Wang Yun and other officials, full of thought to feed the two vicious jackals, can be safe and sound through the winter, do not want this is tantamount to a weak compromise action but inspired more stupid wild dogs, flocked to the eyes of the green light to tear a few bites.
Liu Xie is aware of the young and ignorant, two is the long years of puppet career, so that he lacks only loyal to their own forces, had to pretend to be willing to listen to Wang Yun and other old ministers who hold the power of self-importance advice.
However, even if Liu Xie again lack of political experience, see Wang Yun's plan although temporarily repelled the tiger eyeing the Ma Han two potential, but even Zhang Ji such a thief name has not been washed the small role have dared to follow suit, by threatening the court to ask for an official to do, but also know that this plan exists in a great place of inappropriateness.
He urgently called Wang Yun and other people into the palace, will face a board, but quite a few points of majesty: "According to the view of all the ministers, this time and how?"
Wang Yun, of course, refused to admit that his decision-making has a major error, but a moment and a half will not be able to give good advice, so the tacit understanding of their own party with their own impassioned scolding Zhang Ji despicable and shameless, taking advantage of people's danger, persecution of the people, the calendar hundreds of crimes, straight Zhang Ji that silent ancestors 18 generations are cursed to the body without a skin.
Liu Xie at first still patiently listening, and then see Wang Yun just scolded non-stop, but not say half of the useful remedies, but also know that he is simply not useful, clenched his fist, while secretly regretting the past how not to listen to the real bone of the bone pillar, the vision of far-sighted Lv Yuzhou's ambassador to the advice of the loyal advice, while forcibly resisted to harshly scolded Wang Yun's *, and pleasantly asked since coming in the face of the solemn, silent General Huangfu Song: "How does Yi Zhen view this matter?"
Huangfu Song also does not care whether it will offend Wang Yun and other civil officials, anyway, not many military generals in the dynasty, and politely speaking, on the loyalty and courage of all the old generals, there is only one left him.
Liu collaboration for the emperor although the means is still very young, the mind is not hidden how, but not stupid. It is not possible to be naive to the civil officials slander fooled to the side of the only reliable military officials are abandoned without the use of the point, so Huangfu Song is quite assured, straightforwardly said: "According to the end of the will see, the son of the division (Wang Yun) of the policy does have a big disadvantage, the animal. Livestock is poisonous, to meat feed, want to change loyalty, but is delusional. The only sheep and mend the prison, is not too late."
After all, there is still a person who understands, called Liu Xie relieved, also do not care about the righteous indignation of Wang Yun and other people, continue to ask: "so, Yi Zhen can have a good plan?"
As a senior general, Huangfu Song even if Zhang Ji's intention to see clearly, but there is nothing to be done: the other side of the formation, although scattered, but the intention of harassment, not in the attack, even if all the troops and horses in the capital sent out, but also only for a moment of peace and quiet.
Zhang Ji can continue to use light cavalry to provoke each other, a lack of food directly from the people to seize, because the number of people is not much, both can come and go freely, but also can last for some days, but Huangfu Song under the official army but the consumption of a huge, and so delayed, Chang'an how to cultivate the people's interest?
Meeting the young emperor's eager gaze, Huang Fu Song sighed deeply.
They discussed and discussed and discussed, and it is conceivable that the basket which was broken by Wang Yun was finally rolled over into Lu Bu's hands.
This urgent edict was also drafted by Wang Yun and others, although still justified, but far less arrogant and bossy than the previous one - they also realized that if they want to count on Lu Bu to clean up their mess, it would not be very beneficial to come to the hard way.
Yan Qing read the edict, which was filled with brocaded essays, in detail, and did not hold back his joy on the spot, raising his eyes to Jia Dang and saying, "Truly, if I had known this, why would I have bothered?"
Jia raised an eyebrow, "Shiguang was afraid that he had expected this."
Yan Qing narrowed his eyes slightly, which was half-angry, lightly hooking his lips in a smile, "Isn't Wen He the same?"
In the eyes of outsiders can be overwhelmingly beautiful, but called deeply affected by Jia Yan reflexive eyelids wildly jumping, immobile and digressing from the topic: "can send Wenyuan will be sent to the Lord's edict, so that he knows?"
Yan Qing thought for a moment and was about to nod his head, but then changed his mind just before Jia Yan was about to command him to go on, "No, don't inform the Lord yet."
Jia was wary, "What is the reason for this?"
Yan Qing inscrutable slight smile, meaningful said: "The war opportunity is fleeting, how can you ask the Lord to be distracted by trivial matters? Moreover, Yuan Zhi is still inclined to support the Han Dynasty, if he knows that we advocate delaying the reasoning, I am afraid that he will be cold-hearted ......."
However, the court of those who love nothing to find trouble, stirring up trouble guys, they speak in a good voice are not willing to listen, but for a little small gains digging their own graves, things come to a head on the first thought of looking for them to save their lives, so the precedent of connivance can not be opened.
That group of dogs that dared to bully the unarmed people did not dare to attack Chang'an, and the little emperor was not really in danger, so what was there to panic about?
At the mention of Xu Shu, Jia Yan nodded knowingly, "What does Chong Guang think then?"
Yan Qing casually folded this golden silk cloth, slowly and methodically put it away before lazily saying: ''Xiliang matter when Xiliang up, before sealing the two great generals, how can you tell them to stay out of the way? Son of heaven gave the symbol of orthodoxy, not for nothing, eat king's salary, on behalf of the king to share the worry, natural and natural. Dare to resist the emperor's order, Qing will call them the name is not correct, to be Cai Bo (eery music), Qing will go to Chang'an, willing to do this lobbyist, for his majesty to solve the problem."
Until then, just hang them out to dry and let them taste the fear that comes with making rash claims.
Jia Yan, however, was unimpressed and reminded, "Lord Gong must not be happy to see Chong Guang commit danger alone."
Yan Qing, however, winked at him and said slowly, "In that case, I have to ask Wen He to pretend not to know, and allow Qing to be bold enough to make a preemptive strike."
Meeting Yan Qing's innocent and pure gaze, Jia Yan's eyebrows trembled - he knew that whenever Yan Chongguang discussed things with him in a serious manner, he was doomed to have no good things come to him.
The main matter was quickly talked over, after the two of them chatted sky high and sea high, Jia Yan saw Yan Qing's face showing fatigue and his spirit was low, so he could not help but advise, "Running around for days on end, Chongguang must be tired, quickly go and rest."
Yan Qing was not polite either, covering his lips with the folding fan in his hand and yawning lazily, he nodded and was about to get up and leave.
Just as soon as he got up, he suddenly remembered the recent old desire for dissatisfaction in the dream of their own lord, so he sat down again, the tone is both humble and upright, seriously consulting a face of inexplicable Jia Yan: "Wenhe know, where is the nearest brothel in the city from here?"
Ja: "........................ ......"
