The two of them chatted for a while.
After a while, Li Ru's wife, Dong Yuan, walked over from the back hall.
He left the main hall with Miss Li.
Only Li Ru and Gu Yi were left in the main hall.
After teaching Gu Yi some basic skills in handling government affairs.
Li Ru suddenly let out a long sigh and said,
"Although the Guandong allied army was defeated, the Guandong aristocratic families did not completely decline.”
"In the short term, they won't dare to form an alliance to oppose the Prime Minister.”
"However, if this drags on, I'm afraid that the alliance army will make a comeback.”
Li Ru's worries were not without reason.
Dong Zhuo couldn't compare to the background of the Guandong aristocratic family group.
This was also the reason why, in history, after the alliance army was disbanded.
This was the main reason why the forces of the various dukes could develop so quickly.
Without exception, Yuan Shao, Yuan Shu, Cao Cao, and the others all received the full support of the local aristocratic families.
What was the Xi Liang Army doing at this time?
Ever since Dong Zhuo's death, the development of the Western Liang Army had deteriorated.
There was internal strife between the Western Liang Army's F4.
Li Jue and Guo Si worked together to kill Fan Chou.
Zhang Ji was afraid that he would attract the disaster of killing.
He took the risk and chose to lead a portion of his troops to attack Wan City.
In the end, the city was not taken down, but he himself died from the loss.
During the Jian 'an period, after Emperor Liu Xie was taken away by Cao Cao, the Xi Liang Army lost their last banner.
What made people sigh was that…
Ten years had passed since the Western Liang Army entered the capital and was destroyed.
The reason for the decline of the Western Liang Army was not only because of the internal reasons of the Western Liang higher-ups.
The most important reason was that the Guandong aristocratic family group had brought too much help to the various vassals!
The development of the Western Liang Army had reached a bottleneck.
A large number of dukedom forces in the east of the country were developing rapidly!
And now.
Defeating the Guandong alliance army was a severe blow to the development of the various vassals in the Guandong region.
However, this strike was still not enough to destroy the Guandong aristocratic family group behind them.
If he wanted to eradicate the malignant tumor of the Guandong aristocratic family group, the road he had to take was still long and dangerous.
This was also the question that Li Ru had been worrying about.
Aristocratic families had already taken shape in the pre-Qin period.
Their origins could be traced back to the nobles of the Six Nations.
In the Han Dynasty, the era of aristocratic families had completely arrived.
Any scion of an aristocratic family, even an idiot, could become an official in the court and hold an important position.
During the Wei and Jin Dynasties, the birth of the Nine Grade System became a celebration for the aristocratic families!
Now.
The Guandong aristocratic family group and Old Dong had completely fallen out.
However, due to the powerful military pressure, the Guandong aristocratic family group temporarily had no good way to deal with Old Dong.
However, Kansai, especially the three auxiliary areas, had already developed their potential to the extreme.
Compared to the large area of land in the east of the country, it seemed to be lacking in stamina.
In the short term, it was still fine. No one in the east of the country could defeat Old Dong.
But what about five years later?
What about ten years later?
What about twenty years later?
If the east of the country was unified, a powerful force would be born.
At that time, if Dong Zhuo's army was defeated, everything would return to the original track of history.
Li Ru was extremely worried about this.
"Mr. Wenyou, in the face of the current situation, perhaps we can consider moving the capital.”
"Luoyang is ultimately a place of war, and there are no dangers nearby to defend.”
"My lord's foundation is in Kansai. If we abandon Kansai and focus on Luoyang, it won't be a good thing in the long run.”
Gu Yi voiced his thoughts.
In reality.
Luoyang was located in the core area of the east of the country.
As the capital of the Han Dynasty, the influence of the Guandong aristocratic family group in Luoyang could be said to be deeply rooted.
In history, Dong Zhuo moved his capital to Luoyang because he was afraid of the power of the Guandong alliance army.
The more important reason was to avoid its edge and shift the political center of gravity to an area with greater influence.
Chang 'an was once the capital of the Western Han Dynasty.
However, it was still a rather important core city.
To the east of Chang 'an, there was Hangu Pass to defend.
To the west, there is Tongguan to occupy.
They were surrounded by the Qinling Mountains.
In terms of geographical location, it was simply too advantageous.
In comparison.
Luoyang was the capital of the Han Dynasty.
However, his position was on the protruding side.
The surrounding area was tightly surrounded by the factions of the eastern dukes.
To the north were Yuan Shao, Han Fu, Wang Kuang and others.
To the east were Yuan Shu, Cao Cao, Bao Xin, Zhang Miao, and others.
Dong Zhuo couldn't occupy these lands in a short period of time.
Even if they occupied it, they would only fall into a never-ending rebellion under the resistance of the Guandong aristocratic families.
From the looks of it…
Luoyang, the capital of the Han Dynasty, had become a chicken rib in Dong Zhuo's hands.
As the saying goes,"It's a pity to throw away the tasteless food."”
What was different from history was that…
And now, because Dong Zhuo's army had defeated the alliance army of the feudal vassals.
It was even more powerful than before.
However, it was also because Dong Zhuo had occupied Luoyang that the surrounding dukes did not dare to fight among themselves and instead tightly banded together.
In other words.
As long as Dong Zhuo and the main force were still in Luoyang, these guys would not dare to fight among themselves because they were afraid of Dong Zhuo's army.
This was like a team fighting a boss in a game.
If the boss was still around, the teammates would definitely cooperate to kill the boss first.
However, if the boss died, the issue of internal profit sharing would be enough to make his original teammates fight over it!
