After Wang Yun left Taifu's Mansion, Dong Zhuo sent Li Que and Guo Si to lead the Xiliang army and surrounded Yuan Mansion. Li Que led his men into the main hall, and Guo Si led his men into the backyard. Along the way, No matter men, women, old or young, all were killed. For a time, the Yuan family was bleeding like a river, and it was too horrible to watch. Afterwards, Dong Zhuo came to the Yuan Mansion, but for some reason, he left with a livid face.
Yuan Wei used his own blood to take away the most decadent parts of the Yuan family, in exchange for a new life for the Yuan family, and also provided a political excuse for Yuan Shao to launch a general offensive. The Yuan family and Dong Zhuo also formed a deadly feud.
But later, Emperor Xuanwu Yuan Xi went to Chang'an to assassinate Dong Zhuo. A few years later, when he went south to King Qin, he killed Li Que and Guo Si, avenging the hatred of the country's enemies.
Cao Cao: We are revolting soldiers to put an end to the riots and stabilize the country. All the armies have been gathered, so why haven’t we advanced yet?
Yuan Shao: Meng De, the time has not come yet, please wait.
Cao Cao: What are you waiting for? Dong Zhuo relies on your majesty's power to defend Luoyang and march eastward. Even if Dong Zhuo is unethical, he will be a serious problem for us.
Yuan Shao: Oh, Meng De, what are your suggestions?
Cao Cao: Everyone, if you can listen to my plan, the leader of the alliance should order the armies in Hanoi to advance on Mengjin, and everyone in Suanzao should defend Chenggao, occupy Aocang, blockade Xuanyuan and Taigu, and control all dangerous places.
Zhang Miao: Yes, I think what Meng De said is feasible.
Cao Cao: The leader of the alliance should also send a highway to lead the Nanyang army to secretly rush to Danshui and Qixian County, and then attack Wuguan to threaten the three auxiliaries and surround Wei and rescue Zhao.
Yuan Shao: Meng De’s words are very much in line with my wishes, however.
Cao Cao: We are called righteous soldiers, but now we are hesitant to move forward, fearing that we will lose the hope of the world. We should doubt the soldiers, lure them to fight, drain their energy, and then fight decisively and invade Luoyang. Then the matter will be settled.
Soldier A: Report! Urgent report! ! Urgent report from Luoyang!
At this time, Cao Cao was still an ambitious young man. Ambition was something that was not born in a day, but grew little by little through events.
Cao Cao's military deployment can basically be said to be a perfect match. He predicted it in advance. Dong Zhuo's prediction was a pity. The man in charge was Yuan Shao.
Although Yuan Shao had selfish motives, such as wanting to preserve his strength, and secondly, he had no base, and the princes also had their own agendas. The Allied Army was indeed difficult to lead, but the big brother didn't take the lead, and it was even less possible for the Allied Army's younger brothers to contribute. The Allies were born with calcium deficiency.

Soldier A: Report to the leader of the alliance, news came from the capital that Taifu Yuan and his family were all executed by Dong Zhuo.
Yuan Shao: Huh? What! ! uncle! ! !
Yuan Shu: What did you say? ? uncle! ! !
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Our Yuan family's second son, Yuan Xi, was cold. Looking at all this, he agreed with Cao Cao's plan, but he couldn't get in the middle of the conversation.
On the eve of leaving Beijing, Yuan Xi once saw his grandfather Yuan Wei, his father Yuan Shao, and his second uncle Yuan Shu. They had a secret conversation in the study, the content of which he did not know.
However, Yuan Xi had a bold and terrifying guess in his mind, which was that his father and the others were not responsible.
Yuan Shao: The Dong thieves and I are at odds with each other. The generals will listen to the orders and follow Meng De's plan to organize their troops and horses. They will attack Luoyang today and kill the Dong thieves until death.
Yuan Shu: The hatred of the country and the family is irreconcilable! ! !
Yuan Shao: Dong Zhuo has stationed troops in Hulao and wants to cut off the middle of our army. He can send half of his troops to meet the enemy. Meng De, you can make arrangements.
Cao Cao: Promise, I will obey the order of the leader of the alliance.
Yuan Shao: General Wentai, in coordination with the highway, you will immediately march into Nanyang to intimidate the three auxiliaries and contain Luoyang.
Sun Jian: Promise, I will obey the order of the leader of the alliance.
Yuan Wei's sacrifice and the massacre of the Yuan family gave Yuan Shao a sense of justice, and his last assist also gave the world a relatively reasonable explanation.
The former young emperor Liu Bian was killed by Dong Zhuojiu, and the Allies lost their political legitimacy, but avenging his father was another kind of righteousness.
