    After a while, Lu Bu walked out of Ding Yuan's tent with a bloody head in one hand. When the guards saw that the head in Lu Bu's hand was their governor, Ding Yuan was all frightened.

    Lu Bu held up Ding Yuan's head and shouted loudly to the left and right. The sound as loud as a bell shook the entire Bingzhou camp.

    "Ding Yuan is unkind, I have killed him!! Anyone who is willing to follow me is here, and anyone who doesn't will go away!"

    The soldiers of Bingzhou who led their troops and horses came over one after another when they heard the sound. Hou Cheng, Wei Xu and others were the first to kneel down and surrender, followed closely by Song Xian and Cao Xing. Zhang Liao sighed several times. Lu Bu was kind to him.  , He is a person who is sure to repay the kindness of others with springs of water, so in the end, he still knelt down and surrendered.

    ???????????? Many Bingzhou officers and soldiers knew of Lu Bu¡¯s ambition, but they did not dare to confront him at this time, so they led their troops to disperse.  As a result, the 120,000 Bingzhou army disintegrated like a piece of loose sand due to Lu Bu's rebellion and the murder of his adoptive father.  Most of the soldiers in Bingzhou were unwilling to surrender to Lu Bu, but Lu Bu ignored them and allowed them to leave, leading the remaining 60,000 troops to surrender to Dong Zhuo.

    The next day, L¨¹ Bu held Ding Yuan's head and went to see Li Su, who introduced Dong Zhuo to him.  Dong Zhuo was overjoyed and treated him to wine. When he saw the majestic Lu Bu, he became even more happy and bowed down first.

    "I have gained a general now, like a drought-stricken seedling receiving sweet rain. With the courage of a general, why should the world worry about instability?"

    Lu Bu was so humble that he knelt down on one knee and publicly paid homage to Dong Zhuo in front of 60,000 Bingzhou troops and a group of Liangzhou soldiers.

    "If Mr. Dong does not give up, I will be your adoptive father. In the future, I will be sincere and lead the troops in battle for my adoptive father. I will shed my blood and sacrifice my life to help my adoptive father achieve great achievements!"

    After hearing this, Dong Zhuo glanced at Li Ru. In order to convince Lu Bu, Li Ru quickly made a decision and nodded secretly to Dong Zhuo.  Dong Zhuo also wanted to adopt him as his adopted son, so he immediately agreed without hesitation.  He also gave Lu Bu a golden armor and brocade robe. After having a drink with Lu Bu and his generals, they dispersed.

    Dong Zhuo, who had the unparalleled Lu Bu in the world and an army of 60,000, had reached the peak of his power. He took charge of the military affairs in front of the court. He named his younger brother Dong Min the Zuo General and Huhou, and Lv Bu the Zhonglang General and Duting.  Hou.  He also announced the news that Wen Han, the governor of Hedong, had evil intentions and was conspiring to rebel.  He even sent General Zhang Ji to lead an army of 50,000 Liangzhou troops to conquer Hedong.

    At the same time, Li Ru also advised Dong Zhuo to make plans to abolish the establishment as soon as possible.  Dong Zhuo obeyed and held a banquet in the province, gathered the officials, and secretly ordered Lu Bu to send more than a thousand soldiers to guard the left and right sides.  Grand Tutor Yuan Wei and all the officials arrived. They patrolled the wine shop several times. Dong Zhuo pressed his sword and revealed a fierce look in his eyes.

    "Today, the emperor is weak and cannot worship the ancestral temple. According to the stories of Yi Yin and Huo Guang, I will depose the emperor as King Hongnong and establish King Chenliu as emperor. Anyone who does not follow will be killed!"

    The ministers were too frightened to speak out, but only Yuan Shao, the prefect of Hanoi, stepped forward.

    "The Holy Emperor has only ascended the throne for a short period of time and has not lost any virtue! If you want to dethrone your direct descendants and establish common people, do you want to rebel!?"

    Dong Zhuo was very angry and said coldly.

    "The affairs of the world are in my hands! I want to do it, who dares not to do it! Then ask me about the sharp sword in my hand!"

    Yuan Shao stared straight at him, his face was like a violent tiger, and he suddenly flicked his sleeves.

    "Dong Liangzhou, you are so ambitious and want to make great achievements in the world. I am not ashamed to be complicit with you!!"

    Yuan Shao kicked the desk, turned around and left.  Dong Zhuo was so angry that he wanted to kill Yuan Shao to vent his hatred, but Li Ru stopped him and whispered in his ear.

    "The Yuan family has four generations and three princes. The disciples and old officials are all over the world. If the lord kills him, it will definitely arouse the anger of the scholars in the world. This will do a lot of harm to the lord's future cause and not a single benefit. It is better to let him go.  It¡¯s not necessarily a bad thing if you¡¯re not in Luoyang.¡±

    After hearing this, Dong Zhuo stopped the anger in his heart, then turned to Yuan Wei and said viciously.

    "Your nephew is rude. I look at your face and forgive him for now. What do you think of the abolishment of the throne?"

    At this time, Dong Zhuo's power was at its peak, and Yuan Wei could not dare to oppose him. He immediately agreed.  Seeing Yuan Wei's behavior, the ministers also agreed with the deposed emperor.

    So the news that Dong Zhuo had deposed the emperor quickly spread throughout the world, and Dong Zhuo's ambition to devour the world was obvious.  It aroused the anger of countless heroes and martyrs in the world.  Yuan Shao openly confronted him and fled Luoyang. This move also won the favor of many heroes and righteous men, who rushed to Hanoi to join Yuan Shao.  And Yuan Shao came from a wealthy family in the world, the Yuan family in Runan. For a time, Yuan Shao's reputation skyrocketed, and there were faint signs of being the leader of the world's righteousness.

    At the same time, while Dong Zhuo was working on deposing the emperor, he repeatedly urged his general Zhang Ji to conquer Hedong.  Dong Zhuo's move was intended to scare the monkeys.  And this chicken is undoubtedly Wenhan, and as for the monkey,The princes in every state and county in the world are ready to move.

    A few days later, Zhang Ji organized the 50,000-strong Liangzhou army, with all the equipment and supplies, and was determined not to break Hedong and never return to Luoyang, so he rushed towards Hedong with great momentum.

    Dong Zhuo can cover up the rain with one hand and cover the sky with one hand. Anyone who disobeys him will be put to death.  Whether it is the officials of the imperial court or the princes of various states and counties, everyone is in danger and dares to be angry but dare not speak out.  The authority of the Han Dynasty did not seem to have any signs of recovery after experiencing the rebellion of the eunuchs. On the contrary, it plummeted even more with the arrival of Dong Zhuo.

    On the other side, it is in Yanshi City, east of Hedong.  Wenhan's face was complicated, whimpering and sad.

    "Hey, is it really God's will that cannot be violated? I wanted to change history twice, but somehow, there seems to be a giant hand controlling everything, so that the trajectory of history can go on the right track."

    Before He Jin died, Wen Han tried to dissuade him many times, but He Jin refused to listen and insisted on entering the palace.  As for Ding Yuan, Wenhan knew at the beginning that Lu Bu would probably be seduced by Dong Zhuo, so he stayed in the Bingzhou camp, firstly to help Ding Yuan fight Dong Zhuo, and secondly to pay attention to Lu Bu's every move.  But this time, things went against his wishes. Instead, Dong Zhuo tried to alienate him, causing Ding Yuan to turn against him and almost die.

    This narrow escape seems like God is sending a warning to Wenhan, a time traveler!

    Wenhan was sighing at the top of the city, when Xilong, with a solemn look on his face, was walking quickly towards Wenhan.

    "It's just as my lord expected. The Bingzhou army collapsed, half of them fled back to Bingzhou, and the other half were led by Lu Bu and joined Dong Gou's command. Now Dong Gou has sent Zhang Ji to lead 50,000 Liangzhou troops to kill us. Still  The good Lord knows things well and has taken precautions long ago, otherwise we would have been caught off guard now."

    There was a trace of curiosity in Xilong's eyes. When he first heard Wenhan say that Lu Bu might have murdered Ding Yuan and said that Dong Zhuo would soon end the war with the Bingzhou army, he calmed down and would definitely send a general.  The conquest made Xilong quickly prepare Yanshi's defense measures.

    At that time, Xilong was only dubious, but Wenhan was his lord after all, so he had no choice but to start preparations according to his instructions.  Unexpectedly, what happened next was exactly as Wenhan expected.

    Now in Yanshi, 30,000 Hedong elite soldiers have gathered, and after half a month of construction, a urn city has been built, so that it can withstand Zhang Ji's 50,000 army.

    Today, the Hedong Army under Wen Han has 2,500 Black Wind Cavalry, 1,400 trapped camp, and 1,000 Jingdun Battalion. These approximately 5,000 soldiers are the three flagship armies of the Hedong Army. Although the number is not large,  But each one has the most sophisticated equipment, and each soldier is a warrior who has been honed in hundreds of battles.

    Since the bandits from Hedong were collected, Wenhan recruited thousands of new soldiers from Hedong, and then reorganized 7,000 cavalry and 10,000 cavalry troops based on the elite guards he had selected when he was the eighth captain of Xiyuan.  Eight thousand infantry, of which the infantry is divided into three categories: 4,000 sword and shield bearers, 6,000 spearmen, and 8,000 archers.  Among them, Wenhan focused on practicing archery. In addition to the eight thousand archers who took archery as the core of their training, the remaining swordsmen, shieldmen and spearmen also often practiced archery and could serve as archers at any time.

    And because Wenhan opened up a new way of making money, Zuixianjiang, and Lin and Cai Yan both have great business acumen, plus the help of the Wei family, and the cooperation with the wealthy businessmen in Hedong  It can be said that he was like a fish in water. In addition to the wine industry, he soon occupied a lot of markets in various business fields such as silk, catering industry, and armor forging industry.

    In addition, now that it is autumn, Wenhan has worked hard to implement the farmland and has a bumper harvest.  All the wastelands in Hedong were originally stretches of golden straw as far as the eye could see.  The grain industry is developing rapidly, and Wenhan also intends to lower grain prices. As a result, the number of people rushing to Hedong from various states and counties continues to increase. The more people there are, the faster the flow of funds. Although Hedong currently collects taxes,  It is the lowest among all Xiazhou counties in the world, but it accumulates sand into a tower, and the profit is small but the quantity is large.  Hedong's current tax revenue in January is comparable to the revenue in the past six months.

    All of these can be a sign that Wenhan is now a rich man with abundant funds.  Wenhan, who is rich and wealthy, is still frugal in life, and the objects of his spending are all the sergeants under his command.  The treatment, food and reward system of the Hedong Army have been improved, and the equipment is better than before. Wen Han tried his best to provide the best equipment and good horses to each newly built team.  After all this time, money was spent like water, which made Zhou Long, who was in charge of money, change from a smiling face every day to a completely bitter face, often murmuring that Wenhan was a complete prodigal.

    These are the general conditions in Hedong today. Because of this, Wen Han had the confidence to dare to pull Dong Zhuo's tiger beard with Ding Yuan.

    "Yanshi is a border town between Hedong and Luoyang. If my guess is correct, Zhang Ji will definitely lead the army to attack Yanshi first. Counting this time, Zhang?It will arrive in five days.  Zhicai, have you prepared all the measures to prepare for the battle and defend the city?  "

    "Back to my lord. The food and grass reserves in Hedong are enough for the 30,000 troops in Hedong to last for three years. There is absolutely no problem with the food and grass. The soldiers below are all training hard. My lord uses the method of bringing in the old to bring in the new, so that the troops and horses can get used to each other.  It has improved rapidly. It has been training for nearly half a month, and the new army has a certain combat effectiveness. At the same time, I have ordered 100,000 arrows from various counties in Hedong, and also collected a lot of boiling oil, large rocks and other objects.  , As long as the Wengcheng is reinforced in the next few days, everything will be ready."

    The so-called old leads the new, which means to promote the position of veterans and let them be the leaders of new recruits.  Under Wen Han, there is absolutely no nepotism. Everything is based on seniority and merit. No matter where you come from, as long as you have been in the Hedong Army for a certain period of time and have made merit, you will definitely get ahead.  day.  Therefore, in this way, the soldiers in Hedong were willing to sacrifice their lives for Wenhan.

    "Okay, let's wait and see. I want Dong Gou to know that if he wants to get involved in Hedong, these 50,000 Liangzhou soldiers alone are not enough!!"

    Wenhan¡¯s eyes narrowed, he looked at the road ahead, and shouted sternly.
