"What is Lei Gong doing now?" Dong Zhuo looked up at Liu Ai and asked.
Liu Aidao said: "After Lei Gong occupied Youzhou, he ordered his subordinate Li Gang to divide the land among local tyrants throughout Youzhou. The noble families in Youzhou fled Youzhou in large numbers. The noble families in Dai County and Shanggu County were even massacred by Lei Gong!"
"After dividing the fields, Lei Gong disbanded his army to camp in the entire Youzhou, and the Tengjia Army in other battlefields was also disbanded. Judging from the intelligence obtained by our spies in Bingzhou, the entire Tengjia Army territory now has less than 10 troops
Ten thousand! Judging from the information obtained so far, the Tengjia Army has no plans to attack the Han Dynasty before the autumn harvest!"
Li Ru and others were relieved after hearing this. If they want to continue fighting, the imperial court has no way to resist Lei Gong's army.
But Dong Zhuo sighed with emotion: "Lei Gong can still live freely and do whatever he wants. Even if he massacres all the nobles in a state, no one can do anything to him. Unlike the original situation, he still has to fight with Yang Biaoxu. I have many
I want to be like Lei Gong, kill whoever I want, and kill all the pig teammates in the court who are holding me back!"
Li Ru said calmly: "Prime Minister, although Lei Gong's move was pleasant, it offended the nobles and nobles in the world. Although he is now sharp, his power will not last long. The nobles and nobles in the world will not watch Lei Gong continue to be rampant.
Don’t you think that Lei Gong relies on the power of the people and can’t compete with the power of the nobles and nobles in the world!”
"My subordinates believe that it is more beneficial for the Prime Minister for Lei Gong to occupy Jizhou. As long as Lei Gong's troops approach the Yellow River and threaten the safety of the entire Central Plains noble family, they will fully support the Prime Minister and Lei Gong to confront each other even for the sake of their own families. Now there is a gap between them
In Jizhou and the Central Plains, the noble families are not in a hurry. I am afraid that the Prime Minister's volunteer system will be difficult to spread in the Central Plains!"
Dong Zhuo sneered and said: "I can see the power of Thunder Lord, but I can't see the power of the powerful nobles. I'm afraid that Wen You, you will be frightened by their aura of pretending to be powerful. In reality, they may be just paper tigers. Although Thunder Lord is not
The army is approaching the Yellow River, but it is also approaching Jizhou. I will wait and see how powerful the powerful force of Jizhou's clan can withstand the thunder gong."
"If they can block it, I will continue to cooperate with them. If they can't block it, it means they are really paper tigers. Don't blame me for eating them all to increase my strength! After all, I am doing this for the big man. They have been loyal for generations. I want to come.
Those who sacrificed their own family for the big man will understand me!"
Yes, Dong Zhuo vaguely felt that the power of the Han nobles seemed to be very powerful, but in fact they looked so powerful only because they relied on the imperial court, but they were extremely weak without the power of the imperial court.
Lei Gong slaughtered all the powerful nobles in Bingzhou and Youzhou, and the powerful nobles in Jizhou were also maimed by Lei Gong, but they did not see how much damage they caused to Lei Gong and even the Tengjia Army. Lei Gong slaughtered them and slaughtered chickens and sheep.
, and they had no resistance except running away.
He even defeated the Kwantung Allied Forces once. The fate of the clans of Bingzhou and Youzhou made Dong Zhuo feel the weakness of the clans, and he wanted to fight them within the framework of the imperial court. The three public officials, nine ministers, and all officials, civil and military, were all theirs. This was indeed true.
The most powerful force of the Han Dynasty.
And if they smashed the chessboard and used force, that's all they seemed to be doing! So what if they could mobilize an army of 200,000? It's not like they were beaten to pieces by him!
Becoming allies with them made Dong Zhuo find it difficult to move forward, but treating them as enemies made Dong Zhuo feel that he was surrounded by fat sheep. He felt that becoming enemies with the wealthy nobles was a better choice.
Just like Lei Gong, this battle originally severely damaged his vitality, but he slaughtered all the noble families in Youzhou. Even if his vitality has not been fully recovered, he should have recovered most of it.
If the Lei army attacks Jizhou and continues to massacre the nobles, I am afraid that he will immediately have the food, grass and baggage to attack the Central Plains. After all, the wealthy nobles of Jizhou are rare in the world!
Dong Zhuo knew that he wanted to continue to improve his strength to resist the Thunder Lord. Zhu Jun's suggestion was the only way, which was to mobilize the noble families in the world to resist the Thunder Lord.
Lei Gong gets the power of the people, he gets the power of the nobles, and the power of the people cannot be stronger than the power of the nobles. He is the one who has the upper hand with the power of the nobles.
But Dong Zhuo also knew that the nobles and nobles in the world looked down upon him, a common man from Xiliang, and would not take refuge under his command.
But if you want to gain the power of the wealthy nobles, you don't have to ally with them. If you kill them like pigs, you can still improve your strength. Just like when he killed all the merchants of the Han Dynasty, he immediately gave the court the capital to fight against Lei Gong.
But Lei Gong's strength is far beyond what can be solved by killing the fat pig like the businessman. Naturally, a pig 10 times fatter than the businessman is needed to increase the strength of the big man!
As long as he imitates Lei Gong, defeats their forts, kills all the people, divides the land, and gets the wealth they have accumulated for hundreds of years, Dong Zhuo feels that recruiting an army of one million is not a problem at all. It is even possible to recruit 2 million or 3 million. With such a large army in hand, what can Lei Gong do to fight with him?
The more Dong Zhuomo thought about it, he felt that only by swallowing the fat pig that the man had raised for 400 years could he have the capital to continue fighting against Thunder God.
Li Ru was surprised when he heard this: "How could the Prime Minister have such an idea? The power of the noble clans is spread throughout the Thirteen States of the Han Dynasty. If the Prime Minister really forces them to become enemies, we can only control Sili, and the entire The great Han Dynasty will fall apart, and then the Prime Minister will have no way to resist the Thunder Lord!"
Others also persuaded Dong Zhuo to give up this idea. Although the Xiliang army was rich in military virtue, it did not have the power to control the entire Han Dynasty. If they really started to massacre the nobles and nobles, Dong Zhuo would definitely rebel. Not to mention dealing with Lei Gong, they could Not being able to survive is a problem!
Dong Zhuo smiled and said: "I am not stupid, so I will not act recklessly. The Xiliang people are too weak in the court, especially in the civil service. I plan to recruit Han Sui and Ma Teng to surrender, so that Xiliang can return to Chaotian's command again!" "
Jia Xu worriedly said: "Xiliang has been in chaos for several years. Han Sui and Ma Teng have become accustomed to the life of occupying the mountains as kings. I'm afraid they are unwilling to surrender!"
But Dong Zhuo smiled and said: "In the past, the imperial court was the imperial court of Guandong clan. They discriminated against us Xiliang people, which led to frequent rebellions in Xiliang. But I plan to form a Xiliang Party and recruit all the famous officials and officials in Xiliang Come to the imperial court and let them serve as county guards and officials, and gradually replace the current officials of the imperial court. If they have official positions, I don't believe they will hide in the poor mountains of Xiliang and become mountain kings! And as long as the Xiliang Party is formed If it succeeds, I won't need Yang Biao, Zhang Wen and the others, and it will be their turn to contribute to the Han Dynasty's foundation!"
