Chapter 443
In the first year of Chuping, early spring.

A cry of "Following the order to seek thieves" was like a thunderbolt rising from the ground, blasting the entire Han Dynasty.

Qiaomao, the prefect of Dongjun, sent an edict to the three princes, and sent letters to all the states and counties, saying that Dong Zhuo was evil, tyrannical and bullying the king, and hoped that the loyal and righteous people in the world would raise troops to fight against Dong, so as to relieve the country's calamity.

When Cao Cao got the news, he also set up the banner of "the side of the Qing emperor, eliminate the country's thieves" in Chenliu, and called on the princes of the world to attack Dong Zhuo on the grounds of restoring the throne of King Hongnong.

All of a sudden, the world gathered to respond, and the governors and county guards from all over the country led troops out one after another, heading towards Luoyang with great momentum.

When the news spread to Luoyang, Dong Zhuo's expression became terribly hideous when he heard about it.
Qiao Mao corrected the Sangong, saying that it was the decree issued by the Sangong, which made Huang Wan, Fan Ling and others miserable, and they were all arrested by Dong Zhuo and sent to prison for strict interrogation.

Later, when he learned that the princes were going to restore King Hongnong again, Dong Zhuo angrily led three thousand soldiers into the palace to find King Hongnong Liu Bian.But when he opened the door outside the hall, he saw that there was no sign of Liu Bian inside, it was empty.

The two eunuchs guarding the gate couldn't escape their involvement and were beaten to death.The two couldn't stand the punishment, so they confessed to Wei Wei Zhang Wen.

Dong Zhuo took people to Zhang Wen's house again, and asked about the whereabouts of Hongnong Wang Liu Bian.

Zhang Wen refused to answer and was sent to prison for interrogation.

On the ninth day of February, the prison van in which Zhang Wen was detained was driven slowly on the streets of Luoyang City under the guard of hundreds of soldiers.

When he arrived at the market, Zhang Wen, who looked haggard, was tied to a thick wooden pillar, and the people in the city were all around him.

Dong Zhuo came in a luan chariot, stepped on the back of a servant, got out of the chariot, and then slowly walked up to Xingtai. Looking at Zhang Wen, who was dying, he said without the slightest pity: "Zhang Wen, my grand master thinks that you have contributed to the imperial court. , I advise you to confess your accomplices earlier, so as not to suffer this flesh and blood."

Zhang Wen was tied to a pillar and could not move. His hair was disheveled and his body was already purple and bruised.He glanced at Dong Zhuo, and opened his mouth to spit on Dong Zhuo. Not only was he not afraid, but he laughed loudly: "Dong thief, everyone in the world is my accomplice to Zhang Wen, we wish we could eat your meat raw and drink it alive your blood."

Dong Zhuo was insulted by Zhang Wen, and suddenly became furious. He picked up a barbed iron whip, and slapped Zhang Wen fiercely, scolding violently: "Say it or not! Say it or not!"

This whip can be said to be a heart-piercing pain.

Thick blood overflowed between Zhang Wen's lips and teeth, and the expression on his dust-stained face was extremely painful. Obviously, he was suffering from great suffering at the moment, but he still refused to confess his accomplices, just held his breath and kept cursing From Dong Zhuo.

"I just hate that when we attacked Xiliang back then, I didn't listen to Sun Wentai's words and executed you, so that you, a jackal, entered the capital, mutilated people, and brought chaos to the world!"

"Dong Zhuo, you will not die in the future!"

"I'm on Huangquan Road, waiting for you!"

Hearing these words, Dong Zhuo somehow felt a trace of fear in his heart.The hostility on his face became heavier, and the iron whip in his hand beat more and more to death.

The children below Xingtai were blindfolded and their ears were blocked by their parents. The adults couldn't bear to look any more and closed their eyes.

Not long after, Zhang Wen's voice gradually died down, and Wei Wei, one of the dignified nine ministers, was whipped to death.

Seeing that Zhang Wen was out of breath, Dong Zhuo threw away the iron whip in his hand, and glanced down fiercely.The common people retreated shyly, trembling with fear.

A few days later, Dong Zhuo held a banquet in the mansion for all the ministers and officials.

The officials did not dare to disobey Dong Zhuo, so they could only bite the bullet and go.

Compared with the lively atmosphere last time, this time the banquet was in a very strange silence from the very beginning.

It is no longer a secret that the princes from all walks of life in the Kanto region are leading troops to Luoyang.At this juncture, Dong Zhuo didn't dispatch troops to attack and march, but instead set up a banquet in the mansion, what was his intention?

All the officials figured in their hearts that the Zhang Wen incident a few days ago had already sounded the alarm for them.

After half a round of drinking, Dong Zhuo took advantage of his drunkenness, glanced at the officials present, and suggested aloud: "It's no fun to drink dry like this. I'll wait for my grand master to give you some entertainment."

As he spoke, Dong Zhuo clapped his hands, and the soldiers in the mansion immediately brought over a dozen large jars, filled half of them with water, set up firewood underneath, and started to boil vigorously.

"Teacher, do you want to cook cattle or sheep?" Shang Shu Ling Ding Gong asked curiously.

"What's the fun in cooking cattle and sheep?"

Dong Zhuo smiled gloomyly, and he looked at the crowd: "Everyone, have you seen the cook?"

Hearing these words, all the officials present shuddered in their hearts, and their backs felt cold.Many people didn't even dare to look at Dong Zhuo, their whole bodies couldn't help shaking there.

Within half an hour, the cold water in the urn boiled.

Dong Zhuo picked up the wine cup, took a sip, and called out the names of the three officials present with a smirk: "Shang Shu Zhou Wei, Chengmen School Captain Wu Qiong, Minister Tang Li, Han Fu, Liu Dai, Zhang Huan, etc. Miao, these people were recommended by you. The recommendation is really good. Now you dare to send troops to rebel against the grand master. Are you also ready for internal response, wanting to cut off the head of the grand master and send As a courtesy to them?"

Before the three people whose names were named could argue, they were brutally knocked to the ground by the soldiers.

"Censor Chun Yujiu, Zhenwu General Xu Chang, Dianjun Zhonglang General Chen Ling... You have been in close contact with the rebels recently. Why, you also want to take the head of this Grand Master?"

Dong Zhuo read the names of more than a dozen officials in a row, and every time he read a name, one person in the seat was captured by the soldiers.

The rest of the officials present were sitting on pins and needles, their hearts beating non-stop, fearing that the next name Dong Zhuo would say would be themselves.

After Dong Zhuo finished reading, there were more than [-] officials captured.

Dong Zhuo made a gesture, and the soldiers understood, and immediately cut off the officials' tongues, gouged out their eyes, cut off their hands and feet, and threw them into an urn for cooking.

Then they fished out the undead ones and dumped them on the ground, allowing them to roll around in pain between the wine cups and desks, howling terribly.

The officials present all changed their colors, obviously they were very frightened.Many people couldn't even hold the bowls and chopsticks steadily, ran to the corner and vomited;

Even a military general like Lu Bu, who is used to brutal fights, felt that this method of execution was too cruel.

Only Dong Zhuo was there calmly, chomping down on meat, drinking fine wine in big bowls, and asking everyone with a smile on his face: "Everyone, are you enjoying yourself?"
