Chapter 103 Greatly Increased Strength

() Both Dong Zhuo and Li Ru are action men who do what they say, not to mention that this matter is extremely important, so early the next morning, Li Ru went out to talk to He Jin's old subordinates. And this was indeed a matter of course.

After being hit by these people, with the death of He Jin, the status of these generally prosperous generals in the court became embarrassing, and they were also worried about their own future.

At this time, Dong Zhuo, a powerful man in Xiliang who suddenly emerged, suddenly extended an olive branch to them, and they naturally easily accepted the offer. In their view, Dong Zhuo, a local warlord who had once been a powerful figure in Xiliang, was more powerful than the local warlord.

In the beginning, the distance between the Chinese civil servants and him was closer, not to mention that he took the initiative to recruit them, which made him even more sincere.

So in just two or three days, He Jin's old subordinates such as Wu Kuang and others had become increasingly close to Dong Zhuo. And after several meetings, Wu Kuang and others also felt that Dong Zhuo was someone they could rely on.

However, before they formally surrendered to Dong Zhuo, they still hoped to fulfill one wish under Dong Zhuo's protection, which was to remove He Miao, one of the culprits who killed their lord.

At that time, Wu Kuang drank some wine and already regarded Dong Zhuo as his next lord, so his words were very direct: "We were all promoted from the army by General He. Today, we are all promoted by General He."

ri's status depends on General He. Now

Now, General He Miao died in an assassination plot. As his subordinates, we should avenge him. On that day, those eunuchs who really harmed him have been eradicated, but He Miao's crime is no less than

They, so we just want to kill him for revenge!

"Unfortunately, He Miao is a relative of the emperor and has been granted the title of General of Chariots and Cavalry. It is not something that we can do at will. If Lord Dong can help us fulfill this wish, we are willing to follow Duke Dong from now on."

, never regret it!”

Except for this Wu Kuang, several other He Jin's subordinates also nodded and said: "General Wu and I are of the same mind, and we ask Mr. Dong to make the decision for us!"

After hearing what they said, Dong Zhuo was not surprised but laughed heartily: "Okay, haha, okay! You are all good men who value love and justice, and they are the people that I, Dong Zhuo, admire. Since you all said what you said,

For this sake, I promise you. In fact, it’s not just you

, I also hate the people who killed General He deeply, and I wish I could kill all those murderers before entering Luoyang. However, it is easier to take revenge yourself. I can help you create the opportunity, and then you will take action yourself.

What do you think about killing He Miao?"

"This..." After pondering for a long time and exchanging opinions with other people with their eyes, Wu Kuang nodded: "Okay, I will do it as Dong Shijun wants. If Dong Shijun can help me wait for the knife

He Miao, we are willing to attach you to your envoy Jiwei!"

Just when Dong Zhuo began to think about how to create an opportunity to attack He Miao, the latter had already learned the news that shocked him. As Dong Zhuo pulled back the troops scattered throughout Luoyang City,

Luoyang has returned to its past appearance, and the transmission of this news has become very easy.

The fact that Dong Zhuo, Wu Kuang and others had frequent contact with He Jin's old ministry could not be hidden from the dignitaries in Luoyang City. However, they had nothing to do about it for the time being, and this matter did not bring many disadvantages to them. Everyone

So I put the matter aside for the time being.

However, He Miao looked at the matter a little differently. Since He Jin's death, he had been worried that He Jin's subordinates would cause trouble for him. He also knew how much trouble he had caused this time and had to keep a low profile. Hope

Those people are not bold enough to dare to come to their own homes.

After a period of heart-wrenching days like this, he suddenly heard that Dong Zhuo had frequent contact with these people. He Miao, who was already worried, had a bad guess - could these people have colluded with Dong Zhuo?

Then they will be detrimental to themselves? And with Dong Zhuo's unscrupulous behavior, he is afraid that he will be in danger.

Regarding concerns and worries in this area, He Miao consulted a counselor named Bai Lian next to him and wanted to ask if he had any solutions. Bai Lian gave the only solution after some meditation: "Start first.

To be strong! General, you can arrange your manpower first and kill Dong Zhuo in one fell swoop when he is not prepared. Then there will be no further trouble."

"What? You actually asked me to kill Dong Zhuo? How could this be possible? Even if it were to happen, his soldiers would not let me go, not to mention that the probability of doing so was too low." He Miao immediately shook his head.

"General, this is the only good way to avoid Dong Zhuo's frame-up. Moreover, this will have another good result, which is to win the gratitude of the civil and military officials of the dynasty. They have been bullied enough by Dong Zhuo. If

If the general can help them get rid of this scourge, it will not be impossible for the general to ascend to the position of general in the future!" Bai Lian continued to advise.

When he heard about the position of general, He Miao's heart moved. He actually envied his brother He Jin for being able to sit in such a high position. If he could take advantage of this position, the risk would be worth taking. But

Immediately, he said with concern: "But Dong Zhuo has a large army at his disposal, how can he kill him so easily? I only have a few people at my disposal, how can it be possible?"

"General, it is calculated by heart but not by accident. It is just a sudden move. The number of troops is not a problem at all. In my opinion, as long as you find a night and send hundreds of dead soldiers to raid Dong Zhuo's residence, you can eradicate him in one fell swoop!

"Bai Lian still insisted on his opinion.

"This..." After weighing it for a long time, He Miao finally made up his mind: "Then do as you say and recruit all the trustworthy people in our house. I, the general, have something to say!"

After a while, hundreds of slaves in He Miao's house were gathered in front of him, and then he told these people, exaggerating the danger several times, and then said: "...If you don't want to

Come through this difficult time with me, I will be harmed by those people, and you will not survive! Now, I need you to stand up and help this general this time. As long as it works, you will all be meritorious officials in the future. I

I will definitely not treat you badly!" After saying that, he even asked someone to take out some of the money they had prepared earlier and put it in front of them.

After hearing those words and seeing the gleaming property in front of them, the servants' eyes shone brightly: "I am willing to die for the general!"

"Okay, then when it gets dark, you will set off immediately, rush into Dong Zhuo's house at night, and kill him for me!" He Miao took a deep breath and gave the final order.

But just when everyone agreed in unison, He Miao's house was surrounded by soldiers holding various crossbows and wearing armor. As mentioned earlier, Dong Zhuo was an action man. When he decided

When you want to do something, you will quickly make it happen.

He did this when he had the conflict with Zhang Wen, he did this to fulfill his wish after coming to Luoyang, and he did this to recruit He Jin into the old department. Naturally, he would not have much time left to deal with He Miao today.

Although it was still bright and there were many people walking around in the city, Dong Zhuo, who was arrogant and arrogant, did not consider the possible impact of this matter at all. He immediately surrounded the entire He Miao Mansion, and then led others to

Invited Wu Kuang and others over.

Everyone in the He family was in shock when they saw that the door was forcibly opened, and then thousands of soldiers armed with various weapons rushed in, surrounding them all who were still full of confidence.

"What are you doing? How dare you kill ministers under the emperor's feet?" As soon as he saw Wu Kuang and others rushing in with murderous intent, He Miao's face turned pale, but he remained stubborn.

He rubbed his scalp and scolded sternly.

"I'm just waiting here to seek justice for the general!" Wu Kuang let go at this time. Facing He Miao's accusation, he still responded calmly: "Because of your own selfishness, you

As a result, the general missed the opportunity to get rid of the eunuchs, so the general was killed by the eunuchs.

.And judging from your subsequent performance, it is clear that what you did in the previous episode was to form a party with those eunuchs and killed the general. How could we, the general's subordinates, allow such an unjust person like you to stay?

In the world!" At this point, he pulled out the sword from his waist: "He Miao, take your life!"

When He Miao saw this, he realized that the matter had reached an irreversible point, and immediately wanted to draw his sword to fight. Unfortunately, with his ability, how could he be the opponent of Wu Kuang, a general? As soon as he drew out his sword, he was

Wu Kuang chopped him to the ground with one knife, and then his head was cut off by He Jin's old men who rushed up from behind.

After starting the killing ban, these people got out of hand and took advantage of the situation to bloodbath He Miao's residence, killing everyone in his house, leaving no one alive.

The people sent by Dong Zhuo took the opportunity to plunder all the money from He Miao's house, and they made a small profit.

The murder of He Miao's entire family immediately caused a violent shock in Luoyang, but Dong Zhuo and others insisted that he was exterminated because he was discovered to have colluded with the remnants of the eunuch party. In fact, there is not much reality about this.

The powerful courtiers had no choice but to hold their noses and admit the matter.

After this incident, Dong Zhuo's power was further expanded. He Jin's old troops, which had previously had some restraint on him, also surrendered to his command, and the entire Luoyang was completely controlled by him.
