The Power of the Three Kingdoms at the End of the Han Dynasty and the Imperial Power of the Han Dyna

Seeing that everyone was timid, Wei Yan, who was standing behind Liu Bei, couldn't help it.

"The young general is willing to cut off Hua Xiong's head and offer it under the tent."

Yuan Shao: "Who are you?"

Because of Cao Cao's displeasure with Liu Bei, Yuan Shao's impression of Liu Bei became not so good, as did the people behind him.

Seeing this, Gongsun Zan cupped his hands and said, "This is Liu Xuande's younger brother, Wei Yan Wei Wen Chang!"

Gongsun Zan still admires Wei Yan. Although he is not a general who can defeat ten thousand enemies, he can definitely reach the first-class level.

Yuan Shao: "What is your current position?"

Gongsun Zan: "Follow Liu Xuande and serve as a horse archer."

When everyone heard this, they felt like they were embarrassed. Our generals couldn't defeat Hua Xiong. How could your small horse archers defeat him?

Yuan Shu had a problem with Yuan Shao, a concubine, becoming the leader of the alliance, and he was the first to express his objections: "How dare you bully me, a little archer who has no one under my command, and dare to talk nonsense here. You and me! Beat me out with sticks!"

Just as some soldiers were walking forward, Gongsun Zan said hurriedly: "Please calm down! Since this man made big words, he must have a brave strategy. Let's call him to take action. If he fails to win, it is not too late to punish him."

Gongsun Zan wanted to give Wei Yan a chance to come forward and also give Liu Bei a chance.

Gongsun Zan's status in the Allied Forces was not as low as in history. The army in his hands could be said to be the absolute elite of the Allied Forces. Yuan Shao thought for a while and decided to give him some face.

Wei Yan got on his horse and rushed towards the enemy formation, while Xu Chu walked towards the war drum.

Xu Chu beat the war drum vigorously to encourage Wei Yan.

The princes in the big tent heard the drums beating loudly outside the pass and their shouts shaking the sky.Yuan Shao stood up from his seat and walked to the door of the tent, looking out.

The two fought equally and passionately.

Wei Yan didn't expect that Hua Xiong would be so difficult to deal with, and the more he fought, the more frightened he became.

In the end, Hua Xiong overpowered Wei Yan in terms of momentum. Wei Yan made a feint and chased back.

Hua Xiong knew that his victory was based on experience. In terms of force alone, the opponent was equal to him. He did not pursue him. Instead, he shouted outside the camp: "There is no one among the sixteen princes? Hahaha..."

Yuan Shao felt embarrassed and closed the camp to avoid fighting.

"Dong Zhuo has such a powerful general under his command. What should we do?"

The sixteen princes were stopped at Sishui Pass by a little Hua Xiong. How ridiculous!
Yuan Shao looked at Liu Bei, his expression even worse. If it weren't for this guy, how could he be so ashamed today?
"Report!!! Report! Report to the alliance leader! Hua Xiong led his cavalry down the pass and shouted a challenge in front of the stronghold."

"boom!"

Yuan Shao slapped the table angrily, "Who dares to fight?!"

There was silence below.

Seeing that the princes here were so weak, Xu Chu took his spear, mounted his horse, rode out of the stronghold alone, and fought with Hua Xiong.

"Whose general is this?"

"This"

Everyone, you look at me and I look at you, but no one knows.

Finally Liu Bei stood up and said, "This is Bei's third younger brother, Xu Chu and Xu Zhongkang."

Hearing this, some people felt sad that this little county magistrate actually had such a fierce general under his command.

The two fought for more than 20 rounds on the battlefield. Hua Xiong was defeated and fled. Xu Chu chased him, but failed to catch up and returned without success.

However, killing Hua Xiong was already a great achievement.

Xu Chu came back and shouted to Liu Bei: "Brother! I have already killed Hua Xiong. Why don't we rush into Guanzhong to capture Dong Zhuo alive now? How long will it take? Let's go!" Yuan Shu said: "Stop! I, the minister, must be humble. You are from the county." I ordered my subordinates to go out to fight without obeying orders. How dare you show off your power here? Come on! Drive out of the tent with me!"

Liu Bei, Wei Yan, and Xu Chu wanted to come forward to argue, but were stopped by Gongsun Zan.

At night, news of Hua Xiong's defeat reached the prime minister's house in Luoyang, and counselor Li Ru (also known as Wenyou) offered Dong Zhuo a plan.

Li Ru: "Alas! Prime Minister, now that Hua Xiong has been defeated and in danger, the bandits are becoming more and more powerful, so we must not underestimate the enemy! Yuan Shao's uncle, Yuan Wei, is now the imperial tutor in the court. If the inside should cooperate with the outside, the harm will be very serious."

Dong Zhuo: "We must not ignore this matter! Well! Send troops immediately to surround the Yuan Mansion and kill everyone in the house."

Li Ru: "Prime Minister, the fourth and third princes of the Yuan family in Runan have many disciples and old officials, and there are countless eyes and ears in the court. What I want to say is that not only the Yuan family, but also those close to the Yuan family should be careful."

Dong Zhuo: "Wen You is right!"

Li Ru: "The army has been defeated and needs to revive its morale. Does the Prime Minister know how King Hejian made his fortune?"

Dong Zhuo: "Huh?"

Li Ru: "The king of Hejian cannot make his fortune without the nobles. He can support an army of [-] people just by stealing the money from the families of the nobles in Bingzhou."

After Li Ru finished speaking, Dong Zhuo's eyes lit up. There wasn't much else in Luoyang, but there were many nobles!

And they are all big gentry. Aren’t they richer than the gentry in Bingzhou?

It just so happened that the Kwantung Allied Forces were provoking themselves, so they had an excuse. What are they waiting for?Use the knife!

As long as the military expenditure is enough, aren't you afraid of soldiers paying for their lives?
The next day, the city of Luoyang was in turmoil. Grand Tutor Yuan Wei and Grand Servant Yuan Ji exterminated their entire clan. Hundreds of people, including men and dogs, were all killed. No one was spared.

At the same time, regardless of how many connections they have with the Yuan family, the noble clans, big or small, will be treated as traitors and exterminated just like the Yuan family if they do not pay enough "guarantee" (money to buy their lives) and food!
For a time, rivers of blood flowed into Luoyang City every day. This trend slowly spread to the entire Sili area, and countless nobles were killed.

Dong Zhuo successfully became Liu Han's knife and completed the first round of purges of the nobles in the Sili area.

"Hahaha... Wen Youcheng won't bully me!"

Dong Zhuo received an astonishing amount of money, food, and even armor and weapons, enough to cover the expenses of his army for two years.

Immediately, Dong Zhuo looked greedily at the palace.

Li Ru secretly thought it was not good, and then stopped him and said: "Prime Minister, Prime Minister, you can't do it, can't you?"

"Ok?"

"Prime Minister, there is a taboo over there! King of the River"

Dong Zhuo then realized that he had seen the combat effectiveness of the Hejian King's army. He only had [-] Xiliang soldiers under his command, and the rest were not his elite. But even the Xiliang soldiers were no match for the Hejian King.

Now we have used all our strength to deal with the Guandong nobles. If we anger this man again and Fufeng, Nanyang, Hanoi, and even Shangjun all attack at the same time, we will die without a burial place.

Fear defeated greed, and Dong Zhuo regained his sanity. If he hadn't had the Queen Mother and others as hostages, he would have died long ago.

"I am so lucky to have a literary talent!"

Later, Dong Zhuo asked quietly: "If the Queen Mother's life is at stake, will the King of Hejian..."

Li Ru looked at Dong Zhuo and smiled bitterly. The Prime Minister was so ambitious that he even dared to take this idea. He persuaded him earnestly: "Prime Minister, if the King of Hejian does not move, this is the biggest bottom line for you. If you think of plotting against him again, Once you really offend him, then..."

"Let's not mention Huang Zhong, the governor of Fufeng. Let's talk about Liu Yu, the shepherd of Liangzhou. Will he turn a blind eye and release the Liangzhou army to you?"

"There is also Hedong County. If the King of Hejian really takes action, the change of hands can only happen in a snap. Prime Minister, think twice!"

Dong Zhuo knew that what Li Ru said was reasonable, but he was very irritated. He couldn't get enough of the wealth in his mouth, so he could only watch in pain. "Tell them, if they want to survive, double the deposit!"

"Here." (End of chapter)
