Chapter 723: Rebellion in Chang'an (End)

At this time, He Jin finally realized how powerful Dong Zhuo was, so he couldn't help but hesitate in his heart whether to continue to fight against Dong Zhuo.

In order to make He Jin surrender, Dong Zhuo offered a very high bargaining chip. Not only was he willing to recognize Liu Bian's orthodox status, but he was also willing to co-administer the government with He Jin. Of course, Dong Zhuo would be the leader, and He Jin's status was also Only under Dong Zhuo.

After all, the imperial court only has one-third of an acre of land in Guanxi, and if He Jin surrenders, he will become the second-in-command in the entire Guanxi. This shows that this promise is very sincere.

However, a promise is just a promise after all. Although He Jin is stupid, he is not stupid enough to believe Dong Zhuo's verbal promise, but he will never give up the rights in his hands if he has to.

Now, although He Jin has not reached the point of last resort, Dong Zhuo's methods really scare him.

Dong Zhuo was so insane that he even dared to assassinate the Queen Mother. What else in the world could he not dare to do?

If the confrontation continues and he is ultimately defeated, God knows what Dong Zhuo will do to himself?

Furthermore, even if Dong Zhuo is defeated this time, the situation of the court being surrounded on three sides is still not resolved. What if Dong Zhuo makes a comeback?

He Jin was afraid, he was really afraid.

The next day, in order to show goodwill to Dong Zhuo, He Jin ordered Hou Yi to return to Chang'an. Although he was not ready to surrender, he also had plans to shake hands with Dong Zhuo and make peace.

After receiving the order, Hou Yi hesitated repeatedly and refused on the grounds that "the general was away and the military order was not obeyed". However, he ended up being arrested by He Jin, taken back to Chang'an and imprisoned directly in the sky prison.

Immediately, He Jin's brother He Miao led the army to retreat, and Dong Zhuo took this opportunity to lead the army to pursue and defeat the Han army. He Miao was also captured alive by Yuwen Chengdu.

 “Dong Zhuo, you don’t keep your word.” He Miao growled at Dong Zhuo.

Dong Zhuo's eyes flashed with a trace of amusement, and he smiled lightly and said, "Why did the Za family break their promise?"

"My brother has retreated and is ready to assist His Majesty with you, but why are you still leading the pursuit?" He Miao asked.

Dong Zhuo couldn't help but sneered, and then sneered: "He Jin's ambition is really big. The Za family has given him a position below one person, but he is still not satisfied and wants to control the military. I really think I am a fool." ?"

A flash of panic flashed in He Miao's eyes, and she said nervously: "Who knows whether you will keep your promise? My brother is just trying to protect himself."

"snort."

Dong Zhuo smiled coldly and said calmly: "If the Za family doesn't kill you this time, go back and tell He Jin that you will either hand over your military power and surrender from the city, or wait until the Za family conquers Chang'an and the He family will be exterminated."

Dong Zhuo knew that after this defeat, He Jin's inner defense was on the verge of collapse, so his attitude towards He Jin must be tougher, otherwise He Jin would definitely push further.

"Stop playing those little tricks. The Za family's patience is limited. Get out of here." Dong Zhuo snorted coldly.

 “Okay.” He Miao didn’t dare to stay any longer and ran away in a rolling and crawling manner.

After He Miao was deliberately left by Dong Zhuo, He Jin, who was originally shocked and angry, also learned Dong Zhuo's original words from He Miao's mouth. He thought that Dong Zhuo just couldn't tolerate him continuing to hold military power, so he believed Dong Zhuo's clumsy lies again.

He Miao's defeat left Chang'an with only more than 40,000 troops. Even if Ding Yuan's 30,000 Jingzhou troops and Huangfu Song's 30,000 Jizhou troops arrived, they would only be on par with Dong Zhuo's troops. As for the generals, But it's too different.

He Jin believed that he would definitely lose if he continued to fight, so he comforted himself by trusting Dong Zhuo. Now the chips in his hands were getting smaller and smaller. If he didn't surrender until Dong Zhuo invaded Chang'an, it would be too late.

The next day, when He Jin announced that he would shake hands with Dong Zhuo and prepare to make Dong Zhuo prime minister to assist him in government, all the civil and military officials in the dynasty were shocked.

"General, this must not be done. Dong Zhuo is a wolf. Once he enters the capital, the country will be destroyed."

Wang Yun tried to persuade him, but He Jin waved his hands indifferently. "Dong Zhongying is an important minister of the country. He once put down the Qiang and Hu rebellions in a few months that had not been resolved for decades. He has really contributed to the country. Why can't he assist the government together with this general?"

Wang Yun could give a lot of reasons, but He Jin was already timid. No matter how many officials tried to dissuade him, he couldn't listen to a word.

"That's enough. The general has already made up his mind. You don't need to persuade me."

This scene is so familiar. He Jin also said the same thing when hundreds of officials advised He Jin to recruit Qin Hao to the capital. Now it is estimated that He Jin himself regrets it, but he is about to make the same mistake again.

He Jin was too lazy to listen to the officials' nonsense, so he simply tossed his robe and left.

Wang Yun looked at He Jin's back and sighed: "He Jin is the one who ruined my great Han Dynasty."

Wang Yun immediately sent a letter to Ding Yuan after returning home. When Ding Yuan learned that He Jin was preparing to surrender to Dong Zhuo, he immediately led his cavalry and rushed to Chang'an at full speed.

On the way, Ding Yuan also wrote a thousand-character memorial to He Jin describing the disadvantages of recruiting Dong Zhuo to Beijing.

 Unexpectedly, He Jin only read the first line and threw it directly into the furnace.

Learning that Ding Yuan strongly opposed Dong Zhuo's entry into the capital, He Jin simply did not open the city gates when his army arrived, leaving Ding Yuan and 30,000 Jingzhou troops outside the city to hang out.

The one who summoned Ding Yuan was the same as the one who refused to let him enter the city.

 It was He Jin who wanted to fight against Dong Zhuo before, and it is He Jin who wants to surrender to Dong Zhuo now;

How can I do things? It’s so careless and inconsistent. What can you do to me?

At the Jingzhou Army camp, Ding Yuan was cursing He Jin.

 “How can a common man harm his country, how can he advance and harm his country...”

Looking at the furious Ding Yuan, Lu Bu sighed: "Father, what should I do now?"

The Jingzhou army is a guest army and does not bring much rations. If this continues, if they run out of rations and Dong Zhuo arrives with his army, they will collapse without a fight.

After hearing what Lu Bu said, Ding Yuan didn't even think about it and said directly: "I and the Dong thieves are incompatible with each other."

Ding Yuan was also driven crazy by He Jin. His brain could no longer think normally. All he wanted in his heart was to fight Dong Zhuo to get rid of this national traitor.

Lu Bu was also stunned by Ding Yuan's courage, and persuaded with a wry smile: "Father, after Dong Zhuo surrendered He Miao's defeated army, he already has hundreds of thousands of troops in his hands, and we only have 30,000 troops."

Ding Yuan frowned, and said to himself with a headache: "This is a problem."

Just when Ding Yuan was unable to advance or retreat, another big event was about to happen in Chang'an City.

In a corner of the palace, Zhang Rang, dressed in black and wearing a face scarf, said in a deep voice to a **** kneeling in front of him: "Cao Zhengchun, I told you to do something, and do it now. how was it?"
