Seeing Xiahou Yu bow to the end, Cao Cao quickly stood up and helped him up.
The two of them sat facing each other again. Xiahou Dun and the other generals sensed that something was wrong with the two of them and knew that they had something important to discuss. They had already left the tent, leaving only the two of them in the tent.
Cao Cao asked,"Military Advisor, you don't have to worry too much. Now that Dong is about to be destroyed, the world will soon be at peace!"”
Xiahou Yu waved his hand and said," My lord, forgive me for being a jinx. The chaos in the world has just begun."”
"What do you mean, Military Advisor?" Cao Cao asked in surprise.”
Xiahou Yu said," Dong Zhuo is just one of the biggest ringworm diseases in the world. Besides him, there are countless other ringworm diseases. If these ringworm diseases are not eliminated, the world will not be at peace!"”
Cao Cao continued to ask,"Who are the other ringworm diseases that the military counselor mentioned?" I'll bring my troops to destroy him now!“
Xiahou Yu waved his hand and said,"My lord, we'll talk about this later. Let me ask you something."”
"Please speak, Military Advisor!" Cao Cao said.
Xiahou Yu said,"My lord, did Yuan Shao ask you a few days ago if the crusade against Dong Zhuo was unsuccessful, where you could use it as a defense?"”
Cao Cao nodded and said,"Yuan Benchu did ask!"”
"Then do you remember how you answered?"”
"I didn't know what Benchu was referring to at that time," Cao Cao said."I only asked Benchu, what do you want?"
Yuan Benchu directly said that he could defend the Yellow River in the south, Yan and Dai in the north, and have the people of Wuwan and Xianbei in the north, then resist Dong Zhuo in the south.”
Xiahou Yu chuckled and said,"My lord, do you still not understand?" Yuan Shao wasn't resisting Dong Zhuo. He clearly had the ambition to conquer the world.
And it wasn't just Yuan Shao. There were many people like him. Yuan Shu, Gongsun Zan, Tao Qian, and the other dukes all had such ambitions.
Only by eliminating all these people would the world be at peace.
That's why I said that the chaos in the world has just begun!“
Cao Cao listened and sighed,"There are many ambitious people in this world. It seems that chaos is inevitable!"”
After a while, he said to Xiahou Yu,""Advisor Jun, what should we do next?”
Xiahou Yu lightly waved the feather fan in his hand and said with a confident look,""Nine words, build high walls, accumulate food, slowly become king!”
"Good, well said, Military Advisor!"
In an instant, Cao Cao understood Xiahou Yu's meaning. He wanted to secretly accumulate strength and show off.
? Xiahou Yu continued," We will definitely accumulate strength, but there is one thing we must do before that!"”
"What's the matter?" Cao Cao asked.”
" I expected that Dong Zhuo would move the capital to Chang 'an in less than half a month," Xiahou Yu said." The 18 vassals all have their own ulterior motives and will set their sights on Luoyang, the capital.
No one will be stupid enough to chase after Dong Zhuo. This time, we will be the "fools"!、
When Dong Zhuo moved the capital, our army followed him and pursued him, not leaving Luoyang.”
"What do you mean? Why do we have to be fools? Why don't you go to Luoyang?"
Cao Cao asked in confusion.
Xiahou Yu said,"This Luoyang is the bait Dong Zhuo left for the vassals. This bait will cause the vassals to fall apart. We won't get involved."
As for why we are chasing after that thief Dong, that is because we want to give an explanation to the world. Our army is the real army that is chasing after the thief. We are the ones who truly care about the Great Han Dynasty!“
Cao Cao instantly understood and shouted,""Advisor Gao Ming, I, Cao Mengde, want this reputation!”
……
Dong Zhuo did not give up on Luoyang so easily. Instead, he listened to the plan of Jia Xu, the poison warrior, and used gold, silver, and jewelry to divide and disintegrate the vassals.
Liaodong army tent.
Gongsun Zan sent off Dong Zhuo's envoy with a smile and accepted the gift.
The same thing happened to the other mayors. Several vassals accepted Dong Zhuo's gifts and told Dong Zhuo's messenger that they were only responding to Cao Cao's denunciation and following Yuan Shao's orders. They had no enmity with Prime Minister Dong.
In the eyes of Gongsun Zan and the others, they would be fools not to take advantage of the situation. Moreover, seeing that Dong Zhuo's power was already gone, it was not worth it to fight him at this time.
However, there was no such thing as an impenetrable wall in the world. The news that Gongsun Zan and the others had accepted Dong Zhuo's gift quickly spread.
Jia Xu was worthy of being the world's top strategist. His grasp of human nature had reached the peak. With just some gold, silver, and jewelry, he had divided the eighteen princes and alienated their relationships.
Immediately after, Dong Zhuo resolutely moved the capital to Chang 'an and abandoned Luoyang.
After hearing that Dong Zhuo had given up on Luoyang, the seventeen vassals, excluding Cao Cao, were ecstatic.
Luoyang was the imperial capital, a holy land with important symbolic significance. If they occupied it…
It had to be said that Jia Xu was too vicious. He used a useless Luoyang City to make the vassals reveal their ferocious faces and make them fight each other like dogs.
Moreover, his actions were all in the open, without a trace of darkness. However, because of the greed of human nature, the dukes could not avoid it.
At this point, the world was about to fall into chaos, and the era of disputes between the princes had arrived.
