Dong Zhuo's reaction was seen by Li Ru!
As Dong Zhuo's confidant and son-in-law, Li Ru naturally understood Dong Zhuo's thoughts at this moment!
"Lord Prime Minister, this subordinate is only suggesting that we move the capital!"”
"Everything depends on General Lu Bu!”
"As long as Tiger Cage Pass is safe, there is no need to move the capital!”
"That's good!"
Dong Zhuo couldn't help but reveal a satisfied expression when he heard this!
Seeing this, Li Ru smiled bitterly. He knew that Dong Zhuo had lost his ambition!
However, as his subordinate, he could only try his best to assist Dong Zhuo!
Underline…
"However, Lord Prime Minister, you can prepare to move the capital in advance!”
"Once there is a problem, we can immediately move the capital!”
Then, Li Ru said with a serious expression!
"That's good too!"
Dong Zhuo was not someone who could not distinguish right from wrong. He nodded slightly when he heard this!
If it really came to a critical moment, even if Luoyang was prosperous, it would have to be abandoned!
Dong Zhuo didn't object to this!
However…It would be best if they could not move the capital!
"Since that's the case, I'll leave the matter of preparing to move the capital to you!”
Dong Zhuo ordered Li Ru.
Dong Zhuo trusted Li Ru very much. At the same time, Li Ru was also very loyal to Dong Zhuo!
"This subordinate understands!"
Li Ru nodded slightly.
"Lord Prime Minister, regarding the matter of moving the capital, I still need to go to the various great clans in Luoyang to discuss it!”
Moving the capital was naturally not something that could be said verbally. It required the emperor and all the officials to follow, and the various aristocratic families in Luoyang to follow.
During the Eastern Han Dynasty, the emperor and the aristocratic families ruled the world together. If the emperor was taken away without the recognition of the aristocratic families, it was very likely that the ship would capsize.
To be on the safe side, he had to move all the great clans of Luoyang away.
Even Cao Cao in history brought all the officials and aristocratic families to Xudu before he began to dominate the world.
Li Ru was very clear about the situation in Luoyang, which was why he said this.
Dong Zhuo agreed.
"What you say makes sense."
"How about this? Tomorrow morning, you will lead your troops and order all the great clans, whether it is their clansmen or their ancestral temples, to prepare for the move of the capital to Chang 'an!”
"Right, that bastard Yuan Shao's father Yuan Feng is also in Luoyang, right?”
"Tonight, we will kill the entire Yuan family, confiscate their wealth, destroy their five temples, and excavate their ancestral graves!”
"In that case, let's see who dares to disobey my orders!”
As Dong Zhuo spoke, his fat body trembled along with his words.
His face revealed a vicious expression.
It was like an old jackal.
Li Ru's body trembled, and a bloodthirsty light faintly appeared in his eyes.
To the Western Liang Army, burning, killing, pillaging, and extermination were common occurrences.
In the past, Dong Zhuo had used this method to rope in the Western Liang generals.
He was a soldier after all. Wasn't it for promotion, wealth, and women?
"Yes, Lord Prime Minister!"
Li Ru quickly left the Imperial Palace and found Li Jue. He summoned the Fei Xiong Army and rushed to Grand Tutor Yuan Feng's residence. He broke into the residence and caused a bloody storm!
Just like that, that night, everyone surnamed Yuan in Luoyang suffered.
A large number of Yuan clansmen were beheaded and their heads piled up at the Meridian Gate to form a capital.
As for Yuan Feng and the Yuan family, they were all sent to Lu Bu's 100,000 cavalry, where they were beheaded and sacrificed to the flag.
In Luoyang, all the great clans trembled when they learned of this.
After Lu Bu's army left Luoyang, Li Ru sent an order to all the great clans, telling them to prepare to move to Chang 'an if anything happened!
The great clans feared Dong Zhuo, and no one dared to disobey him.
However, when Li Ru sent people to dig up the Yuan family's ancestral grave, he obtained a large amount of gold and silver treasures, so he quickly reported it to Dong Zhuo.
Dong Zhuo quickly spread the news.
"This Prime Minister thinks that it is not easy for the aristocratic families to migrate.”
"Send soldiers to help move the ancestral graves of the various aristocratic families to Chang 'an.”
"So that the great clans can pay their respects to their ancestors in the future.”
With this order, the Western Liang Army quickly spread out all over the mountains around Luoyang City. They dug graves everywhere and made a fortune from the dead.
Poor Luoyang City's various aristocratic families could only be angry but did not dare to say anything.
However, there were still people who took the risk to write everything that happened in Luoyang into a letter and sent it to Yuan Shao of Tiger Cage Pass at the fastest speed!
…Underline…
Since the defeat of Tiger Cage Pass,
The eighteen feudal vassals were already united on the surface, but they were actually separated. As long as they gathered in the alliance army camp, other than drinking and having fun, they would not talk about attacking Tiger Cage Pass.
Seeing this situation, Yuan Shao was also helpless.
From the establishment of the alliance to the present,
Other than the chief military advisor of Cao Cao's camp and the fierce general Zhao Yun, who had made meritorious contributions,
The other dukes didn't gain any advantage at all and even lost a lot of money.
If Zhao Yun hadn't killed Hu Zhen of the Western Liang Army in that battle, the various vassals would have felt that they still had a chance. Otherwise, the alliance would have already fallen apart when they were defeated.
Yuan Shao paced back and forth beside the Alliance Master's seat, thinking hard about how to win back the hearts of the people.
Suddenly, a soldier charged into the alliance army camp in exhaustion.
"Reporting to the Alliance Master, Luoyang City has undergone a huge change!”
"Thief Dong annihilated the Yuan Clan in one night and sent Lu Bu to reinforce Tiger Cage Pass with 100,000 cavalry!”
"All the details are in this letter.”
The messenger soldier shouted and quickly knelt down and raised the letter above his head.
Suddenly hearing the grievous news, Yuan Shao immediately felt as if he had been struck by lightning, and actually could not even stand steadily on his feet.
He fell to the ground and cried loudly.
"Dong Zhuo, you old thief, I, Yuan, will never forgive you!”
After shouting, Yuan Shao's eyes turned red. In front of the vassals, he gritted his teeth and ordered his generals to prepare to attack Tiger Cage Pass.
Cao Cao quickly lowered his voice and asked Zhao Ming.
"Military advisor, it is rumored that Lu Bu is a dragon among men.”
"If he leads 100,000 cavalry to reinforce Tiger Cage Pass, Tiger Cage Pass will probably be as stable as Mount Tai.”
"We've come for nothing this time.”
Cao Cao could see that although the alliance was large, they still had close to 200,000 men.
But after the defeat, the hearts of the people scattered.
No one wanted to sacrifice the lives of their subordinates for a mere reputation and a reward that they might not be able to receive.
Everyone was watching.
Only Cao Cao was still filled with ambition.
Zhao Ming chuckled. His wise gaze seemed to have seen through everything.
"My Lord, don't worry!"
"Please take a closer look. Isn't that Yuan Shao's crying a little too fake?”
"How can a noble duke be trapped by love?”
"If Yuan Shao has a good relationship with the Yuan family of Luoyang, why didn't he try to withdraw them before the rebellion?”
"Since the Yuan Clan of Luoyang has all been annihilated, I will not let you go.”
"Then the more miserable Yuan Shao's performance is, the more he will be able to obtain the sympathy and support of the great clans!”
"My lord, Yuan Shao is about to rise!”
Cao Cao was shocked.
But even he had not thought of this.
"Ziyang, you are indeed worthy of being my wife!”Cao Cao sighed and asked.
"What should we do?"
Underline…
