"The Imperial Court's actions are truly too disappointing.”
Cai Yong sighed. He was now a member of Youzhou, so he was present when the imperial court announced the decree.
"My lord, those are four hundred thousand cavalry from the four tribes of the grasslands. Can we stop them?”
Xu Shu asked. As they had just joined Youzhou Province, they didn't know Youzhou Province that well.
Lu Qing smiled.
"Although it will be difficult, we can definitely stop them. None of the alien tribes of the four grassland tribes can step into the territory of Youzhou.”
Lu Qing paused and looked at the Guo family.
"Send some soldiers to Bingzhou and Liangzhou to take over their armies and earn a lot of money. Since the Imperial Court has given us such a good opportunity, we can't miss it.”
Lu Qing had a smile on his face. This was a logical way to obtain two states!
Although it seemed like a crisis, it was also a great opportunity.
Guo Jia said.
"The Imperial Court's actions have lost the hearts of the people, and at the same time, they have let down the lord.”
"If my lord and Youzhou fail, then so be it. At most, they will gain some fame behind them.”
"But if you succeed, then your prestige will be like the sun at noon, to the point where it can even shake the imperial court.”
"At that time, whether it's to shut the mouths of the world or to win over the lord, the imperial court will never be able to take back these two provinces.”
Hearing Guo Jia's words, everyone nodded, their eyes more or less filled with excitement.
As long as he succeeded, Lu Qing would become a behemoth that controlled three states.
Although Bingzhou and Liangzhou were very poor, Youzhou had a large population!
If the three states merged, they would help each other improve, and they would definitely be able to build the three states into a rich place.
From the current Youzhou, it could be seen that the wealth of Ji County was no less than that of Luo Yang. In fact, it would not be long before it would surpass Luo Yang.
Following Lu Qing's orders, Lu Bu led his troops to Bing Province to take over the military and political power.
As for Zhao Yun, she had brought her troops to Liangzhou, preparing to take over the military and political power from Dong Zhuo.
Ding Yuan's side was slightly better. Although he was an official of a territory, he was indecisive. Otherwise, he would not have been unable to suppress Lu Bu.
Therefore, he would probably be able to smoothly obtain military and political power. The only thing that could cause trouble was probably Dong Zhuo.
Dong Zhuo, who had not contributed much to the Yellow Turban Rebellion because he had fawned over the eunuchs and courtiers, was still appointed governor of Liangzhou.
"Damn the four tribes of the grasslands! I just took control of Liangzhou, how did they cause such a big commotion?”
In the Liangzhou Provincial Governor's Office, Dong Zhuo said furiously.
His son-in-law, Li Ru, frowned and said to his father-in-law.
"Father-in-law, the most important thing now is to find a way to get rid of them and then take all the soldiers away.”
"That Marquis Lu Yun has an imperial edict with him. If we let his men come, wouldn't all of our Western Liang cavalry be given to him?”
Hearing Li Ru's words, Dong Zhuo was shocked and quickly ordered his men to bring the gold, silver, and jewelry to Luoyang.
He was prepared to find He Jin, Shi Chang Shi, and the others, and then change places to be provincial governors, even if it was to become prefects in rich lands.
The key was to take away his Western Liang cavalry. This was his trump card!
Without the Western Liang cavalry, who in the world would recognize Dong Zhuo?
As long as he kept the Western Liang cavalry, he would have a chance to advance in the future.
Dong Zhuo acted quickly, especially with the money he had plundered from the people.
Under the combined efforts of General He Jin and the Ten Attendants of the Supreme Court, he was reappointed as the governor of Qingzhou.
Although he had gone from one bitterly cold place to another, he could still bring his soldiers and leave.
After receiving the transfer order, Dong Zhuo left Liangzhou with 100,000 Western Liang cavalry.
In the original history, he was able to burn down Luoyang City, which showed how cruel Dong Zhuo was.
Therefore, before he left, he directly burned, killed, and looted. He stole all the food that the people of Western Liang had just harvested and all the money from their families.
Although his Western Liang cavalry were all Western Liang people, Dong Zhuo was not stupid.
He had taken away the families of the Western Liang cavalry and was about to leave for Qingzhou. As long as these Western Liang cavalry did not harm their own families, who would care about the lives of others?
Therefore, when Zhao Yun arrived at Liangzhou, not only did he not get any soldiers, but he also saw a mess wherever he went.
Most of the officials left with Dong Zhuo. After all, everyone knew that the three prefectures had been abandoned.
If these officials stayed behind, did they want to be killed by the four tribes of the grasslands?
Lu Qing was furious when he heard the news. He slammed his palm on the table.
"Dong Zhuo's provocation, I'll kill him once I'm done with the matters in the north.”
Not only did he take away all the soldiers, but he also harmed Liangzhou. This was considered to have crossed Lu Qing's bottom line.
Dong Zhuo's actions naturally aroused the dissatisfaction of many people. However, the Imperial Court was currently too busy to take care of itself, so it naturally turned a deaf ear to these impeachment and reports.
Especially now that the threat of the four tribes of the grasslands was present, Dong Zhuo might be able to assist the imperial court in constructing the defense line in Jizhou and Luoyang if he went to Qingzhou.
Therefore, the imperial court would not touch Dong Zhuo at this time. After all, 100,000 Western Liang cavalry was a very large force.
They were even happy that Dong Zhuo was smart enough to secretly take the soldiers away. Otherwise, why would he stay in the three northern provinces and die with Lu Qing?
