    "Jia Wenhe, did you write this letter or did I write it?"

    Wenhan frowned and asked Jia Xu impatiently.

    "Wang Situ is cautious, so it would be more appropriate for Wen Guangjun to write this letter."

    "In this case, you can give me some guidance."

    "That's natural."

    After Wenhan finished speaking, he walked to a table and sat down. Jia Xu, with a slight smile, was grinding ink for Wenhan next to him.  After Wenhan finished writing, he would give guidance from time to time.

    After about half a stick of incense, Wen Han showed the written letter to Jia Xu. Jia Xu read it several times and after confirming that it was correct, Wen Han handed the letter to Guan Yu.

    Guan Yu carefully took the letter into his arms, and after listening to Wenhan and Jia Xu each explain the details they should pay attention to, he left.

    But he said that Cao Cao led the army of rebels and rushed towards Tongguan. One day after Guan Yu left Tongguan, he arrived at Tongguan.  The defenders at Tongguan Pass saw the sound of horse hooves and footsteps in the distance, and the banners covering the sun. They knew that a large army was coming, and they quickly reported to Wen Han.

    Wenhan calculated the time and guessed that this was probably the army of volunteers, so he immediately sent out scouts to investigate. After a while, the scouts who had completed the investigation came back to report that this army was indeed the army of volunteers led by Cao Cao.

    Wenhan was so happy that he led a group of soldiers to welcome the army of volunteers at the foot of Tongguan Pass.

    As the sound of the march, which seemed to be able to break through the heaven and earth, got closer and closer, Wen Han gradually saw the figure of Cao Cao walking at the front of the army.  Cao Cao rides a BMW Jueying, wears a jet black lion head, animal face, fish scale armor, and a black silk battle robe with gold dragon patterns, showing his domineering nature.

    At the same time, Cao Cao also discovered Wen Han at the foot of Tongguan. A smile suddenly appeared on his face and he galloped away to Tongguan.  When he was only ten steps away from Wenhan, he dismounted and walked quickly towards Wenhan.

    Looking at the man in front of him, Cao Cao had a complicated expression. He had to make Cao Cao feel awe-inspiring.  Because this is a man who is willing to sacrifice.

    "Wen Bufan has great righteousness, please accept Mr. Cao's respect!"

    Wenhan didn't know that Cao Cao would actually do something. When he wanted to stop him, Cao Cao had already finished the ceremony deeply.  The princes behind Cao Cao also dismounted and bowed to Wen Han.

    "Wen Guangjun is a righteous man, please accept our respect!!"

    And soon, the army of volunteers behind the princes also shouted in unison.

    "Wen Guangjun is a righteous man, please accept our respect!!"

    Wenhan led eight thousand men to seize Tongguan, which spread to almost all the soldiers and horses in the righteous army.  No one could not be moved by his heroic act of putting his own life and death on the line.  Therefore, everyone bowed sincerely and spontaneously during this prayer.

    " Among the righteous troops, in addition to the general leader Cao Cao who has received such a great gift, there is now another person, and that is Wen Han.

    "Don't do this, everyone. Wen Bufan really can't bear the gift."

    If Jia Xu had not told him the impact of his blocking Dong Zhuo from moving the capital, perhaps Wenhan would have gladly accepted everyone's worship.

    But at this time, he felt guilty.

    "Haha, you are a very talented person and you are pretending to be humble. You really deserve to be punished!"

    Cao Cao laughed, thinking Wen Han was trying to be modest and didn't bother to pay attention to him, then turned around and said.

    "Okay, you guys must be exhausted after traveling all the way across mountains and rivers to reach Tongguan. Please quickly lead your soldiers to the pass to rest."

    After speaking, Cao Cao grabbed Wen Han and asked Wen Han solemnly about the war he experienced in Tongguan. Wen Han's face darkened. Thinking of the tragic war in Tongguan in the past, the bloody gunpowder smoke that had been washed away by the heavy rain around Tongguan seemed to be fresh again.  Head.

    Wenhan told Cao Cao while walking into the pass with him.  Cao Cao rarely spoke among them, but when he heard that Tongguan had been devoured by a huge fire, his expression instantly became extremely nervous. Then he heard that a sudden rain came in time to put out the fire, and his nervousness turned into sighs and hesitation.  Marvel.

    "Such a death situation can be turned into a disaster, your life is really tough. It seems that you are one of the few people in the world who has great luck!"

    The righteous army has arrived at Tongguan, but Dong Zhuo, who is in Chang'an at this time, has not yet learned about it.

    Chang'an City was called Fenghao during the Western Zhou Dynasty.  Fenghao is the collective name for Fengjing and Haojing, which were built respectively by King Wen of Zhou and King Wu of Zhou.  The area where Feng Hao is located is called Zongzhou.  In the Qin Dynasty, it was called internal history. In the early years of the Western Han Dynasty, Liu Bang, the emperor of the Han Dynasty, established the capital in Guanzhong and established Chang'an County. He built a new city in the territory of Chang'an County and named it Chang'an City, which means long-lasting peace and stability.

    ????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????mbOUT out of the Qin Xingle Palace on the south bank of the Wei River, north of Afang Palace, rebuilt the palace and named it Changle Palace, and later built Weiyang Palace.  Later, Emperor Hui of the Han Dynasty built a city wall in Chang'an.  Later HanThe emperor appointed Jing Zhaoyin to govern Chang'an, and carried out large-scale expansion of Chang'an City, building Beigong, Guigong and Mingguang Palace. He also expanded Shanglin Garden in the west of the city, excavated Kunming Pool, built Zhang Palace, etc.

    In the more than 200 years of Western Han Dynasty, Chang'an has always been the political, economic and cultural center of the country.  Since Zhang Qian's mission to the Western Regions during Emperor Wu's reign and the opening of trade routes, Chang'an City became a bridge connecting foreign regions and the starting point of the Silk Road, and it prospered for a while.  In its heyday, there were nearly 100,000 households and hundreds of thousands of people in the city.

    It is a pity that during the reign of Wang Mang at the end of the Western Han Dynasty, the city of Chang'an was destroyed by war.  By the time Emperor Guangwu of the Eastern Han Dynasty Liu Xiu established his capital in Luoyang, Chang'an was changed to Xijing.

    Now Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty has returned to Chang'an again under the hostage of Dong Zhuo. At this time, Chang'an no longer has the prosperity of the heyday of the Western Han Dynasty. Compared with Luoyang, it is a bit deserted.

    Although the Weiyang Palace looks dilapidated, there are still many traces of war everywhere.  However, since the Eastern Han Dynasty, several generations of emperors had intended to build Changle Palace. However, this project was so huge that not long after the construction started, many disasters and disasters occurred in the country at that time, and they were forced to stop the construction project.

    "Please, Your Majesty, please bear with me for a few days. After I have defeated Cao Mengde and other rebels, I will definitely gather manpower to carry out large-scale construction and rebuild Weiyang Palace!"

    Dong Zhuo knelt down on one knee in front of Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty, his fat, bearded face looking a little sad.

    "It's really hard work for the Prime Minister. The Prime Minister dedicated his life to the Han Dynasty and fought fiercely with Cao Cao, Yuan Shao and other rebels in Guanzhong. Unfortunately, the rebels were so powerful that they approached Luoyang. The Prime Minister traveled thousands of miles to escort me out of Luoyang with an army of 100,000. This is true loyalty.  I'm moved.

    I intend to commend Xiangguo as Shangfu, grant Shangfu's younger brother Dong Huang the title of General Zuo and Houhou, and grant Shangfu's nephew Dong Huang the title of Shizhong, commanding the imperial army.  I wonder if Father Shang is willing to accept my wishes?  "

    "Your Majesty is so kind to you, I dare not accept it! Your Majesty, please rest assured, I will do my best to kill the traitors and stabilize the world for the Han Dynasty!!"

    In fact, before Dong Zhuo came, he had already ordered a young eunuch to inform Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty that he wanted to make this gift.  Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty was like a puppet in Dong Zhuo's hands, at the mercy of Dong Zhuo.

    "Hahaha, the lord of our country is forced to recognize a thief as his father. Dong Zhuo, you are deceiving the emperor, exercising power, and playing with the imperial court. I wish that Cao Mengde would attack Chang'an as soon as possible and cut you into pieces!!"

    Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty had no expression on his face, but he was extremely sad in his heart, but he could not show it, otherwise he would be tortured many times by Dong Zhuo.

    "Father, there is no need to kneel down from today on."

    "The Emperor's kindness is so great that I would like to express my gratitude to His Majesty."

    Dong Zhuo slowly stood up with his huge body, and smiled at Emperor Xian of Han Dynasty. Emperor Xian of Han Dynasty felt his scalp go numb, thinking that Dong Zhuo would sleep on the dragon bed again and rape the concubine.

    At this moment, Li Ru walked in from outside Wuyang Palace, knelt down to Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty, and then made a gesture to Dong Zhuo.  Dong Zhuo secretly nodded to Li Ru and motioned for him to go out and wait.  Then, after appeasing Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty for a while, he resigned and left.

    Outside the Weiyang Palace, Li Ru closed his eyes and rested, waiting for Dong Zhuo quietly. When he heard the heavy footsteps coming from the Weiyang Palace, he knew that Dong Zhuo was walking out, and he quickly opened his eyes to welcome him.

    "Wen You, I've kept you waiting for a long time. Do you have anything important to report?"

    "My lord, just now the three generals Niu Fu, Li Cui and Lu Bu have returned with their army. They originally wanted to wait for my lord, but seeing that all three of them were tired, Confucius took it upon himself to order them to go back and rest first, and then meet again tomorrow.  Lord's report."

    "Well, after they come back, Chang'an will be stable. Wen You, how many troops do we still have in Chang'an now?"

    Dong Zhuo and Li Ru walked all the way through the Weiyang Palace as if they were wandering through their own back garden.

    Li Ru's expression changed slightly when he heard Dong Zhuo asked about the soldiers and horses, and he couldn't help but say with some sadness.

    "Our Liangzhou army currently has less than 120,000 troops in Chang'an."

    Dong Zhuo stopped suddenly, his evil eyes widened, and his whole body seemed to be lit with flames.

    "Twenty thousand!! When we were at our peak, we had a total of 300,000 soldiers and horses. Doesn't this mean that we, the sons of Liangzhou, have lost more than 100,000 lives at the hands of Cao Cao's group of traitors!  "

    "Lord, calm down. There is no reason to kill people in this war. Although we lost more than 100,000 Liangzhou men, Cao Cao's group of traitors also suffered a lot of casualties!"

    "Hateful, hateful!! If these traitors fall into the hands of the Prime Minister, the Prime Minister will cut off their hands and feet, gouge out their eyes, cut out their mouth and tongue, and cook them in a big pot!!"

    In an instant, Dong Zhuo's anger seemed to turn into endless hatred. Li Ru trembled when he heard this, because he knew that Dong Zhuo was not talking about anger at all. He had used this terrifying method on many officials who resisted him.  On the minister.

    Dong Zhuo roarsAfter fighting for a while, he kicked several horizontal railings to pieces, frightening many palace maids and eunuchs who were walking not far away and cowered aside.

    "Drink~!"

    Dong Zhuo took a deep breath and suppressed his anger. Then when he saw the broken railing that he had kicked, he seemed to remember something and mentioned it to Li Ru.

    "By the way, Wen You. Tomorrow, an order will be sent to the twelve counties of Liangzhou, asking the prefects of each county to move one-tenth of the population of their counties to Chang'an. Now Chang'an is the capital of the Han Dynasty, how can it be so deserted? Wait for the people of Liangzhou  After arriving, you began to make preparations to restore Weiyang Palace so that it could regain the splendor of the imperial palace of the Western Han Dynasty."

    When Li Ru heard that Dong Zhuo was going to evacuate the population from Liangzhou, he was immediately shocked, and then he felt unbearable.

    "What? Wen You, do you have any objections to what the Prime Minister is doing?"

    When Dong Zhuo saw this, he was very unhappy and asked fiercely.
