Vol 10 Chapter 42: army builds up

Someone said to Gai Xun: "Liu Bian is the future emperor, and Jian Shuo is His Majesty's favorite. You have violated their wishes, and I am afraid that three grievances will become a family."

Gai Xun replied, "Electing virtuous people as officials is to serve the country. I wouldn't recommend them if they weren't virtuous, so why would you regret it if you die!"

Although Gai Xun was an official in Chang'an, he won the trust of Liu Hong.

Whenever there is a major military event, Liu Hong will start an edict to ask Gai Xun for advice on countermeasures, and reward Gai Xun many times, which is very honorable.

At this time, there were only 5,000 officers and soldiers in Chang'an City. In order to fight against the rebels in Liangzhou, Gai Xun petitioned the court to recruit 10,000 soldiers. Defeating the enemy commander, Du Kai was the prefect commander, Yang Ru was the bird strike commander, and the fifth Jun was the Qing bandit commander.

In February of the sixth year of Zhongping (189 AD), Dong Zhuo was worshipped as the shepherd of Bingzhou, and he led his army to Hedong County and stopped.

Gai Xun heard and knew that Dong Zhuo was watching the situation in Luoyang, intending to participate in the coup, so he ordered to guard against Dong Zhuo.

In April, Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty, Liu Hong, died.

In August, there was a coup in Luoyang, and the general He Jin was killed.

In September, Dong Zhuo deposed the young emperor Liu Bian, made Liu Xie, the king of Chenliu, as the emperor, poisoned the queen mother He, and took control of the government.

Gai Xun wrote to Dong Zhuo: "Yi Yin and Huo Guang had so much credit in the past, and the ending is still chilling. You are just a clown, why would you end up better than them? The congratulatory people are outside your door, and the mourners are Before your grave! You dare not be careful!"

After Dong Zhuo saw it, he was very apprehensive.

Dong Zhuo considered that Gai Xun and the left general Huangfu Song were in control of the military power in the Sanfu area, which was a serious problem for his confidants, so he recruited Gai Xun as the Yilang and Huangfu Song as the Chengmen Colonel.

Huangfu Song has 30,000 elite soldiers in Fufeng County. Gai Xun secretly contacted Huangfu Song, intending to jointly attack Dong Zhuo, but Huangfu Song refused.

At that time, the officials below Gongqing all bowed down to the ground when they saw Dong Zhuo, but when Gai Xun saw Dong Zhuo for the first time, he just bowed his hands with both hands.

In the first year of Chuping (190 AD), the Kwantung Allied Army led by Yuan Shao, the former Sili Colonel, launched an army to attack Dong Zhuo.

Dong Zhuo asked Situ Wang Yun, "I want to choose a suitable person to serve as Sili Commander. Who do you think is competent?"

Wang Yun then said, "Only Gaixun!"

Dong Zhuo said, "This person is more than smart, but he cannot take on this important task."

So Gai Xun was appointed as the captain of the Yueqi Academy, but Dong Zhuo did not want Gai Xun to be in charge of the forbidden army for a long time, and let him serve as the prefect of Yingchuan County in Yuzhou.

And before Gaixun arrived in Yingchuan County, Dong Zhuo was worried that he would respond to the Kwantung Allied Forces, so he sent him back to Luoyang.

At a meeting, Henan Yin Zhujun reported the military situation to Dong Zhuo and put forward his own personal advice. Dong Zhuo scolded Zhu Jun: "I have won every battle, and I have my own strategy in my heart, don't talk nonsense, so as not to stain my knife! "

Seeing this, Gai Xun came out and said, "In the past, a wise man like Wu Ding always took the initiative to ask others for advice. What's more, do you want to stop others' mouths instead?"

Dong Zhuo knew that he was being rude, so he said, "I was just joking."

Gai Xun still insisted: "I've never heard that angry words can be regarded as jokes?"

Dong Zhuo then apologized to Zhu Jun.

In March of the second year of Chuping (191), Gai Xun and Dong Zhuo moved from Luoyang to Chang'an.

Although Gai Xun was upright and unyielding, he resented Dong Zhuo in his heart and was unhappy.

(Gai Xun and Huangfu Song were both conscripted into the imperial court by Dong Zhuo before the first year of Chuping. In the first month of the first year of Chuping, the Kwantung Allied Forces raised troops. In March, Dong Zhuo moved Liu Xie to Chang'an and stayed in Luoyang.

At the beginning of the second year of Chuping, Sun Jian led his army to attack Luoyang. In April, Dong Zhuo retreated to Chang'an and deployed Sanfu.

After Gai Xun died, he must be in Chang'an.

In addition, his burial place is Anling, which is in the east of Chang'an City and is the mausoleum of Liu Ying, Emperor Hui of the Han Dynasty.

This can also prove that Gaixun died in Chang'an)

In May, Gaixun died of gangrene at the age of fifty-one.

Before Gai Xun died, he made a will that he would not accept any gifts from Dong Zhuo. In order to show his tolerance, Dong Zhuo wrote to the court and asked the court to present funeral supplies and be buried in Anling.

(According to the order of records in Yuan Hong's "Later Han Dynasty", the story of Gaixun's death is placed after April in the second year of Chuping, but before June, so it is assumed to be May)

......

From this point of view, if Gaixun had an army at that time, Dong Zhuo would not be able to move at all, Zhou Wenwen thought deeply.
