Army of the Western Garden

In 189, Emperor Ling died and was succeeded by the young Emperor Shao.

He also contemplated summoning the northwestern warlord Dong Zhuo to lead his forces to Luoyang to assist him, but his idea was strongly opposed by Zheng Tai (鄭泰) and Lu Zhi on the grounds that it would lead to political turmoil.
