After discussing with Zhang Yu, Cao Cao naturally understood that what Zhang Yu said was definitely the most beneficial for the future development of Cao Cao Corporation!
However, this also involved the core interests of Cao Cao's group, so Cao Cao only temporarily accepted Zhang Yu's suggestion!
If the future really reached the stage that Zhang Yu had mentioned, then he naturally hoped that he could achieve hegemony and only rely on talent!
However, if he couldn't become the overlord of the Warring States, then even if Cao Cao wanted to do so, there was nothing he could do!
All in all, what they lacked was the number of soldiers!
If Cao Cao had tens of thousands of soldiers under him, it would be fine if he gave each general the chance to form an army!
Cao Ren, on the other hand, looked at Zhang Yu's annoying face before he left. He had nowhere to vent his anger!
Who asked him to promise Zhang Yu that he was willing to help with anything!
But who would have thought?
One day, Cao Ren would be forced to help Zhang Yu weaken the status of the Cao Clan's relatives!
Of course, Cao Ren agreed to persuade the Cao Brothers and the Xiahou Brothers because he could see that Cao Cao was tempted!
Furthermore, Zhang Yu's suggestion this time was indeed the best help to the Cao Corporation!
Moreover, Zhang Yu was also considered a relative of the Cao Clan. If he said so, it could be seen that Zhang Yu was sincerely doing this for Cao Cao's good!
Therefore, as Cao Cao's brother, how could Cao Ren not agree?
Even if the clan relatives had some resistance at the beginning, when it really began, would Cao Cao and the generals not think of the clan relatives?
At that time, the Surrendering General Sect would not be in a state of being submissive to the clan relatives, but completely convinced!
Perhaps, in the end, he would get more than just relying on his clan relationship!
……
In the past few days, the alliance army had also fought with the Western Liang army several times. Both sides had suffered a lot of casualties!
When Lu Bu saw Zhang Yu, his face was filled with killing intent and gloominess!
Because now, he understood that he had been fooled by Zhang Yu's words. Even if Dong Zhuo really had the intention to kill him with a borrowed knife!
He couldn't completely destroy it, or else the final result would be a complete separation between Dong Zhuo and Lu Bu!
This was not what Dong Zhuo wanted to see!
Thus, by giving up on Gao Shun, Lu Bu's Bingzhou Army's combat strength had dropped by a lot!
Just that Breaking Ranks Camp alone, without Gao Shun's commander, they were listless all day long. Now, the 800-man team suffered heavy casualties, with less than half remaining!
It could be said that Lu Bu's actions had directly destroyed the strongest trump card unit in his hands!
It was also because of Gao Shun's departure that Lu Bu understood that the Gao Shun he had always hated was actually so important in his army!
Unfortunately, no matter how regretful Lu Bu was, it was useless!
As the alliance army and Dong Zhuo's army suffered heavy casualties, Yuan Shao gradually let go of the killing intent in his heart!
Their family had already been exterminated. If they really wanted to take revenge for their family's extermination, they might have to fight for everything in the 300,000 alliance army!
Not to mention whether he, Yuan Shao, could command the troops of these dukes, just the various dukes had begun to slack off because of the heavy casualties of their subordinates in recent days!
Therefore, Yuan Shao also began to extinguish his thoughts of destroying Dong Zhuo!
Because he was the alliance leader, the 20,000 soldiers of the Bohai Sea under his command had suffered very few casualties. Even if the various dukes were to disband on the spot, he, Yuan Shao, was still the strongest!
At this moment, Dong Zhuo had the same thoughts as Yuan Shao!
The number of Western Liang soldiers who had died in the battle with the alliance of the eastern dukes was several times more than when Dong Zhuo had attacked Luoyang and fought Ding Yuan!
Even Dong Zhuo, who was currently the number one duke in the world, could not help but feel heartache over the tens of thousands of casualties of the Western Liang Army!
He was not willing to give up the wealth and glory that he had obtained with great difficulty!
Therefore, he went to his son-in-law, Li Ru, to ask for advice!
The suggestion he received was to give up Luoyang and move the capital to Chang 'an!
For Dong Zhuo, as his life became more and more extravagant, his ambition to dominate the world became weaker and weaker. All he wanted was to maintain this state!
It was best for him to be his own emperor inside the pass. No matter how chaotic the killing outside was, it had nothing to do with him!
Thus, Dong Zhuo immediately made up his mind to secretly let Lu Bu, Li Jue, and Guo Si lead 50,000 troops to stay at Hulao Pass while he personally led the main force back to Luoyang!
At the same time, Xu Rong of Xingyang would help Lu Bu's army to cover the rear!
He wanted to plunder Luoyang and move the capital to Chang 'an before the alliance army could react!
On the other side, Cao Cao was also worried when he saw that all the vassals in the east of the country had lost their will to fight. However, he was helpless!
Until Tiger Cage Pass's troops retreated and became an empty city!
Cao Cao, Sun Jian, Gongsun Zan, and Liu Bei were the first to enter Tiger Cage Pass!
After learning that Dong Zhuo wanted to move the capital and burn Luoyang, Cao Cao went straight to the alliance army's camp and argued, hoping that the various vassals would follow him to save the Han Emperor!
Once the 300,000 alliance army besieged Luoyang, Dong Zhuo's ambition to move the capital would be dashed!
But the result disappointed Cao Cao!
The 19 dukes, including Liu Bei, who was a descendant of the Han Dynasty, were not willing to lead the army to pursue Dong Zhuo!
Left with no choice, Cao Cao completely lost his temper. He returned to his tent and prepared to bring Zhang Yu and the other eight thousand soldiers to Luoyang to kill Dong Zhuo!
Along the way, Zhang Yu took the lead, leading Gao Shun and three thousand elite soldiers!
When they arrived at Luoyang, they saw the flames soaring into the sky. The wails of countless Han people and the cries of women and children resounded through the clouds!
At this moment, Luoyang was no longer as prosperous as the Han Dynasty. It was a living hell!
Seeing this scene, the killing intent in Zhang Yu's heart also boiled endlessly!
"Gao Shun, I order you to lead 2,000 infantry to guard Luoyang. If you see the remnants of Western Liang doing evil, bullying the people, and raping women and children, kill them without mercy!”
At this point, Zhang Yu got Gao Shun to come over and send troops to guard the dry wells in Luoyang. As long as they found a palace maid sinking into the well!
He had to salvage it and forbid any news from leaking. He had to wait until Zhang Yu returned with his army before handing it over to him!
Seeing Zhang Yu speak so solemnly, Gao Shun immediately accepted the order!
This was also good. After all, Lu Bu was Gao Shun's old master. He was not willing to become enemies with his own comrades!
He might as well lead the army here and serve Zhang Yu!
