On this day, on August 25, the first year of Guangxi, He Jin made a decision.

Under the bombing request of the former Yuan clan official, He Jin finally made a dizzy decision to kill the eunuchs.

So He Jin entered Changle Palace with no defensive measures and issued an ultimatum to Empress Dowager He.

On August 20, Guo Peng led his troops to Hanoi County and marched to the north bank of the Yellow River.

Looking at Xiaopingjin Pass, an important ferry crossing across the Yellow River, Guo Peng ordered the entire army to rest on the spot, have some food, replenish their energy, and then retreat for a while to log and set up a camp.

"Lord, is it just a river now?"

Cheng Li came to Guo Peng, stood with Guo Peng, looking at Xiaopingjin Pass from afar.

"Wait first, let the soldiers rest, hurry up and fight a few battles. After finally getting there, I'm resting. It's hard to say whether there is still a war to fight after arriving in Luoyang."

During the process of Guo Peng leading his army to Hanoi County, he originally wanted to arrive in Luoyang as soon as possible to join the historical process, but on the way, he encountered several groups of Yellow Turban troops besieging the county town.

Guo Peng could not watch the city fall, so he led his army to defeat several Yellow Turban troops with thousands of people and rescued several county towns.

As a result, I encountered a group of Hun cavalry on the road and saw them robbing a group of men and women and moving towards the Shangdang direction.

Guo Peng was furious and led his troops to attack the Huns, won a great victory, killed more than 1,000 Huns, snatched more than 2,000 war horses, and rescued more than 20,000 men and women.

They thanked Guo Peng with great gratitude and then ran for their own lives.

After some time along the way, Guo Peng found that the situation in Hebei was very chaotic, with the Yellow Turban Army causing trouble and the Southern Xiongnu taking advantage of the situation to rob. After thinking about this, his mind to rush to Luoyang with all his might fade.

He suddenly realized that it was meaningless to go to Luoyang now. He had no intention of changing the course of history. He hoped that Dong Zhuo could disrupt the world and destroy the authority of the Han court, so he would not be the one who would make things right.

There were Yuan Shu and Lu Zhi in the court. No matter from any aspect, he was in danger of being used as a gun in the past.

Why not try to get the initiative at the most critical moment?

Guo Peng carefully prepared and created the best entry point for himself.

He kept asking the intelligence soldiers in Luoyang City to send him the latest information so that he could easily judge the situation in Luoyang.

Determine when He Jin died, when the Shao Emperor fled, and when he crossed the river, he won the greatest benefit.

Or use the most straightforward method.

After He Jin died, Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu met with He Jin's old subordinates led their troops into the palace. Yuan Shu set fire to burn the palace to force the eunuchs out. When did he see fire or black smoke appear in Luoyang, it means that He Jin is dead and Luoyang begins to be in chaos.

Coincidentally, Dong Zhuo is actually watching the situation.

Of course, he didn't take the initiative to not enter Luoyang, he wanted to enter Luoyang, but He Jin refused.

He Jin didn't let him in, and Yuan wanted him to enter, which made Dong Zhuo very embarrassed.

On the surface, he was He Jin's person, and was promoted and taken care of by He Jin. In secret, he was the former official of Yuan's family. From the beginning of this operation, he contacted Yuan through Dong Min.

On the surface, respecting He Jin's orders is actually respecting Yuan's orders.

From the bottom of my heart, Dong Zhuo really wanted to be a Bingzhou governor and become a local emperor and have a happy life.

But Yuan did not allow him. Yuan said that Dong Zhuo should come to the central government, and then he would choose the position of the general as the nine ministers, so that you can make you prosperous.

Dong Zhuo felt that Yuan’s promise was very attractive. It was obviously better to come to the central government than to stay in the border area.

That's why Dong Zhuo followed Yuan's instructions to come to Luoyang, but was actually stopped by He Jin and refused to enter Luoyang. He also sent officials to scold Dong Zhuo, which made Dong Zhuo very dissatisfied.

What are you going to do?

Dong Zhuo asked again, and this time, he received an order to ask Dong Zhuo to lead his troops to the Xiyang Pavilion in the west of Luoyang to wait for the notice.

Xiyang Pavilion is more than 20 miles away from Luoyang, not far away. Dong Zhuo's cavalry advanced at full speed and could reach Luoyang quickly. It was a good location to wait and see the situation. Dong Zhuo did not want to continue to be angry with the bird, so he led his army westward.

When he arrived at the Sunset Pavilion, Dong Zhuo stopped and sent his subordinates to watch the situation, waiting for Yuan's next instructions. At the same time, he was thinking about it.

Dong Zhuo was not stupid at all. In his early years, he fought for a position with his courage and was beaten up every minute. Since then, Dong Zhuo has known the importance of studying.

So when he became an official, he often read books, learned principles, understood ancient and modern history, and tried to see through the mystery of the government.

I don’t know if I see it through. Anyway, Dong Zhuo’s cultural level is quite outstanding among Liangzhou people, much better than his subordinates who don’t know a lot of big words.

Yuan promised to give Dong Zhuo a certain position, and Dong Zhuo was also considering whether it was worth it. The situation in Luoyang is very strange now. I don’t know what the relationship between Yuan and He Jin is. As an outsider, Dong Zhuo has obtained very limited information.

Fortunately, his younger brother Dong Min told Dong Zhuo some important information in the court, saying that he had repeatedly hesitated and how Yuan Shao promoted He Jin to do things.

Dong Zhuo thought about it and felt that it was not He Jin who wanted to destroy the eunuch, but Yuan. No matter how he thought about it, he felt that Yuan was using He Jin. Otherwise, why would he hold himself here and not let himself be the governor of Bingzhou?

What do they want their own soldiers to do?

Dong Zhuo felt that Yuan was playing a big game, but the content and results of this game were not something Dong Zhuo could know now.

He will have a chance to know.

On August 25, the first year of Guangxi, He Jin once again entered the palace to issue an ultimatum to his sister Empress Dowager He, saying that he would kill all eunuchs below the Changshi, and instead use scholars and men to enter the palace to serve the royal family.

Queen Mother He was so angry that she scolded He Jin for having a brain disease.

"You took the initiative to throw away the steel knife and hand over our lives to others! How could I have a stupid brother like you!!"

He Jin was confused and didn't understand why Queen Mother He said so.

While they were talking, Zhang asked Zhao Zhong and others to send someone to eavesdrop on the side. When he heard the idea of ​​He Jin's plan to kill them all, he was immediately scared.

"Don't do it, He Jin wants us to die, so let He Jin die first!"

Zhang Rangsui and the ten regular attendants were lying in ambush in the palace with weapons in their hands. When He Jin came out from Empress Dowager He, he sent someone to tell He Jin that Empress Dowager He had something to look for him, so he took He Jin into the ambush circle of the eunuchs.

"What are you doing?!"

He Jin became panicked and was shocked when he saw the eunuchs surrounding him with weapons in their hands.

"What are we going to do? We should ask you this sentence! General, we have done everything we can to survive. Jian Shuo killed him and gave you all the money. Did you not even give us a way out?"

"In the past, the late emperor hated the queen mother and wanted to abolish the queen mother. It was us who gave the savings to the late emperor, in exchange for the late emperor's joy, so that we can keep the position of the queen mother. This is why you, He Suigao, are you today! You actually want to kill us?"

"It's not enough to just kill us. We have to blame our family and tribe. Is there any reason in the world?"

"You always say that we eunuchs are the ones who harm the world. Are we the only ones in the world who are treacherous? Are those scholars who are corrupt and bribes not treacherous?"

"All the dirty and dirty inner palace are damn people. Which of the ministers and ministers in the court is truly innocent? But are we the only ones who are dirty?"

The eunuchs said the sad and angry words in their hearts with one word. He Jin was so dizzy that he didn't know what to do. He couldn't escape and could not even argue.

The eunuchs were in a state of anger. In the end, the Shangfang Supervisor Qu Mu drew his sword and killed He Jin in front of Jiade Hall.

The general He Jin started in April, defeating Dong's relatives and Jian Shuo after Emperor Ling's death. Until August, it took only four months to take charge.

In four months, General He, the world's number one man, was very cowardly killed by a group of eunuchs who were as weak as lambs in the deep palace.
