circumstances.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhang Yang’s influence was still limited to that small patch of land in Shangdang Commandery.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It could only be said that Zhang Yang was fortunate to have been born in Bingzhou.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If he had been placed in Jizhou or Yanzhou, he would have likely been swallowed up by Yuan Shao, Cao Cao, and others long ago.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhao Yun and Lu Bu had barely expended much effort before they fought their way to the northernmost part of Bingzhou, Jiuyuan Commandery.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At the same time, this was also Lu Bu’s hometown.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When the flags of the Dong Zhuo Army were planted on every city in Jiuyuan Commandery.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The six thousand Bingzhou Wolf Riders following Lu Bu felt a sense of \"returning home in glory.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Further north from Jiuyuan was the royal court of the Southern Xiongnu.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If it weren't for the fact that they hadn't brought enough supplies, Lu Bu would have really liked to strike directly at the old nest and wipe out the Southern Xiongnu’s royal court in one go!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even so.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The military achievements this time could already be called extremely bountiful.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The entire Bingzhou was officially incorporated into the territory of the Dong Zhuo Army.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When Lu Bu and Zhao Yun returned to Luoyang.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gu Yi had already been waiting there with the civil and military officials.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Subsequently, the group rested in Luoyang for a few days before embarking on the journey back to Chang'an.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At this moment in Chang'an.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Old Dong had already received the battle reports from the front lines.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Guandong Allied Forces were defeated, Tao Qian was dead, Kong Rong and Zhang Yang were captured, the White Wave in Hedong was reorganized, and Bingzhou was incorporated into the territory.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Every battle report was good news worth celebrating for Old Dong.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After this battle.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Guandong aristocratic group had suffered another fatal blow.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Perhaps.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The unification of the world was not far off.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just as Old Dong was immersed in joy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A sudden feeling of discomfort in his body almost caused him to faint to the ground.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fortunately, Li Ru was by his side and caught Old Dong in time, preventing him from falling.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Father-in-law, you must take care of your health.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Li Ru said with a face full of worry.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Although.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Old Dong’s health had always been very robust.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He was, after all, getting on in years.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Coupled with the constant indulgence in the pool of wine and forest of meat.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even a body made of iron could not withstand the toll of time.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Of the people from my generation, except for that old fellow Cai Yong, everyone else has withered away.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dong Zhuo shook his head with a bitter smile.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Time spares no one.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the past, Dong Zhuo, Liu Yan, Tao Qian, Ding Yuan, and others were all rising stars in the Han imperial court.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But now.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The people of the same generation had all passed away one after another.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Old Dong couldn't help but feel a sense of \"the vicissitudes of time.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hearing this, Li Ru squeezed out two smiles and comforted Dong Zhuo:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Father-in-law, you are not old.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"The world has yet to be unified, and you still have plenty of time!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Old Dong waved his hand and responded:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Wenyu, although I can be considered a leader in this chaotic world.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"But... with my ability, at most I could only dominate one region; it would be far from possible to shake the Guandong aristocrats.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"The reason our army has been able to grow to this point is that Linzhi’s contributions are not a bit less than mine.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Li Ru naturally knew what Old Dong was saying.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Compared to four years ago, the current Dong Zhuo Army was more than twice as strong.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Four years ago, the Dong Zhuo Army seemed very powerful.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But in reality.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Internal conflicts were constant, and the Guandong aristocratic group had adopted various restrictions and strikes against it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If it weren't for Gu Yi’s help.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dong Zhuo would likely have been forced to burn Luoyang and sneakily move the capital to Chang'an.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As for the western borders of the Han territory, Liangzhou, Yizhou, and Hanzhong.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Without Gu Yi, it would have been very difficult for Dong Zhuo to send troops to recover them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Not to mention anything else.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just look at that broken road from Chang'an to Hanzhong.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If it weren't for Gu Yi’s foresight.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sending Jia Xu early on to hoodwink Zhang Lu and have him help the Dong Zhuo Army repair the road.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I’m afraid that even if the Dong Zhuo Army were given another ten years, it would be impossible to repair it on their own.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Wenyu, after Linzhi returns.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"How about I promote myself to Grand Tutor and let Linzhi serve as Chancellor?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Old Dong asked Li Ru with a smile.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Old Dong’s current official title was Prime Minister.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But in reality, the duties of the Prime Minister and the Chancellor were exactly the same, just with a slightly higher status.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>During the two Han dynasties, the Prime Minister and the Chancellor would not be established at the same time.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If there was a Prime Minister, there would be no Chancellor, and if there was a Chancellor, there would be no Prime Minister.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And Grand Tutor was another position.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This position was a nominal one.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was also the highest nominal official position under the Emperor.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But it held no substantive power.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was generally used for retirement.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Old Dong wanted to promote himself to Grand Tutor and let Gu Yi serve as Chancellor precisely to transition power into Gu Yi’s hands.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And this also meant.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>From now on, Gu Yi would officially become the true leader of the Dong Zhuo Army!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But what Old Dong and Li Ru didn't know was.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At this moment in Chang'an, a bloody storm was about to be unleashed.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Chang'an City.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Niu Fu’s residence.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Actually, this statement is not quite accurate.\u003C\u002Fp>",1004,"2026-06-16T10:17:20.643Z","2026-06-16T10:29:10.858Z",1,"Gemini 3.1 Flash
