Chapter 108
Hua Xiong had already walked over with several Xiliang armored soldiers and taken these people away.
Among the ministers, none dared to speak out in opposition again.
Emperor Liu Xie was even more frightened, his face turning pale.
Facing these expected reactions, Dong Zhuo just gave a disdainful smile.
For the Guandong warlords;
Dong Zhuo moving the capital was a great thing!
But for this group of Han court ministers;
Dong Zhuo moving the capital meant they would continue to live under pressure and fear, endlessly!
However, the matter of moving the capital had long been decided by Dong Zhuo.
Even if the Han ministers were ten thousand times unwilling, they could only be forced to accept this fact at this moment.
……
Dong Zhuo did not intend to deliberately hide the matter of moving the capital to Chang'an.
Therefore, this news soon spread to Guandong.
All the warlords were extremely happy about this!
Especially Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu, who had been severely injured before this.
After suddenly hearing the news that Dong Zhuo intended to move the capital to Chang'an, they were so happy they couldn't sleep all night.
The remaining ones, such as Cao Cao, Bao Xin, Liu Dai, Han Fu, Gongsun Zan, and others, also let out a heavy sigh of relief.
Ever since the coalition army was defeated and returned.
Above the heads of all the warlords, a sharp blade hung that could fall at any time!
The fear Dong Zhuo brought them could absolutely not be described thoroughly in a few words.
Learning the news that Dong Zhuo was preparing to move the capital.
All the warlords were like elementary and middle school students in later generations who suddenly learned that their teacher had something to do and left the classroom.
The shackles on their bodies were completely opened in this instant!
Following this came the endless civil wars among the Guandong warlords!
The place where the conflict first broke out was naturally Yizhou, known as the "base camp of the world's aristocratic families."
Sun Jian, the new Yizhou Governor appointed by Dong Zhuo, took only one month to break into the lair of Yizhou Inspector Kong Zhou and behead all hundred members of Kong Zhou's family!
Learning the news of Sun Jian's invasion, the Yizhou aristocratic families were in chaos.
They hurriedly pinned their hopes on Yuan Shu, the "one-armed shrimp."
Yizhou Inspector Kong Zhou was originally just a puppet.
Yuan Shu was the future of Yizhou!
But...
Ever since the Guandong coalition was defeated, Yuan Shu had aged more than ten years compared to before.
His younger brother Yuan Yin and son Yuan Yao were both captured, and their lives or deaths were still unknown.
Seventy percent of his army was lost, and several generals died miserably.
Wave after wave of blows made Yuan Shu, the aristocratic young master who once considered himself noble, now have to tuck his tail and live.
But immediately after, Sun Jian began to raise troops to attack Nanyang, and displayed his status as "Lord Ye," appointed by the imperial court.
Nanyang was known as the largest commandery in the world.
The population of just one commandery was enough to rival more than half a province.
Such a wealthy land, how could Yuan Shu let it go?
Thus, the two sides launched a fierce struggle in Nanyang.
But what was Yuan Shu's level in leading troops to fight?
What was Sun Jian's level in leading troops to fight?
The two were completely not on the same level.
Yuan Shu was defeated repeatedly, losing cities and land.
Sun Jian achieved several great victories in a row.
Seeing this scene, those aristocratic families in Yizhou and Nanyang were completely anxious!
This fellow Sun Jian was just a martial artist who only knew how to kill, and didn't understand what it meant to cherish aristocratic children at all.
If Yizhou and Nanyang were ruled by him, how could everyone have a good life?
Thus, this group of Yizhou and Nanyang aristocratic families immediately transformed into wet nurses, frantically providing blood transfusions and supplies to Yuan Shu.
Originally, more than half of Yuan Shu's army had been annihilated by Sun Jian.
But with the help of this group of aristocratic families, Yuan Shu quickly obtained a large number of fresh troops.
He also received the help of several aristocratic strategists with considerable strategy.
And beautifully won a counterattack!
Sun Jian therefore lost his nephew Sun Ben and general Zu Mao.
His resentment toward the Yizhou and Nanyang aristocratic families reached an unprecedented extreme!
Sun Jian, known as the "Aristocratic Family Killer," how could he tolerate such humiliation?
In a fit of shame and anger, he divided his army into several branches and launched a massacre against the Yizhou and Nanyang aristocratic families within his territory!
In just a few days, the number of small and medium-sized aristocratic families who died at Sun Jian's hands was no less than dozens!
For a time.
Sun Jian's reputation among the scholars became completely foul.
Even compared to Dong Zhuo, it was even worse!
But Sun Jian at this moment had long been blinded by killing, so how could he care about these?
He frantically retaliated against the Yizhou and Nanyang aristocratic families, displaying an attitude of not stopping until he had slaughtered them all!
……
At the same time.
Gu Yi and Dong Zhuo, who received the battle report from the Nanyang region, showed satisfied smiles on their faces.
What they wanted was exactly this result!
It was most appropriate to hand over the two malignant tumors, the Yizhou and Nanyang aristocratic families, to Sun Jian, the Aristocratic Family Killer, to be slaughtered.
