Chapter 791: Thirty-six Road Princes
Chapter 791: Thirty-six Road Princes
In September of the sixth year of Zhongping (189), Qin Hao issued a document to discuss Dong, calling on the alliance of princes in the world to discuss Dong.
In the first month of the first year of Chuping (190), the princes of the 36th Road gathered sour dates, and a feast of the princes officially began.
And these thirty-six princes are:
The first road, Nanyang Taishou, Qin Hao, led 60,000;

On the 24th road, Shangdang Taishou, Wang Shichong, led 5,000 troops;
The 25th road, Shangjun Taishou, Zhang Yang, led 5,000 troops;
The 26th road, Xihe Taishou, Zhang Chao, led 5,000 troops;
The 27th road, Shuo Fang Taishou, Wang Kuang, led 5,000 troops;
On the 28th road, Changshan Taishou, Zhang Shicheng, sent 5,000 troops;
On the 29th Road, Qinghe was too guarded, Chen Youliang sent 5,000 troops;
The 30th road, Liaodong Taishou, Gongsun Du, sent 5,000 troops;
On the 31st Road, Jiangxia Taishou, Huang Zu, sent 5,000 troops;
The 32nd Road, Changsha Taishou, Han Xuan, sent 5,000 troops;
The 33rd Road, the general of Huqiang Zhonglang, Ma Teng, sent 3,000 troops;
The 34th Road, Yizhou Mu, Liu Yan, sent 4,000 troops;
On the 35th road, Bajun Taishou, Liu Ji, sent 5,000 troops;
the 36th Road, and the state pastor, Qin Wen, sent 50,000 troops;
Qin Hao didn't expect that this time he would be able to recruit the princes of the 36th Road, and what kind of concept is this?
It can be said that except for Huang Chao, Han Sui and Wang Lang, all the princes in the world have joined the alliance, and Dong Zhuo has become an enemy in the world.
Dong Zhuo is so hateful? This is completely unwashable.
Qin Hao secretly guessed in his heart that he also knew that so many princes would come, mainly because of the general trend.
When it became a matter of course to ask for Dong, under the coercion of this general trend, most of the princes had to come over, otherwise their reputation would be affected.
This is very frustrating, but there is no good way, so the alliance has also produced two models.
The first is the more active princes, all of whom personally led the army to the alliance and took the initiative to participate in this feast;
The second is the more passive princes, who speak to join the alliance, but do not personally participate in the past, but only send generals to lead a small number of soldiers and horses, and come to participate in the meaning.
In this meeting, a total of 27 princes arrived in person, and they all actively participated in the discussion of Dong, so the troops they brought were naturally the largest.
The one who led the most troops was Qin Hao, who dispatched a full 60,000 troops, and the few such as Liu Xiu and Ma Teng only had 3,000 soldiers and horses.
As for the princes such as Yuan Shu, Yuan Shao, Tao Qian, and Cao Cao, the number of troops was between 30,000 and 50,000, while most of the troops of the rest of the princes were between 10,000 and 20,000.
In addition, the princes of the Nine Roads were unwilling to mix, but they were not good at going against this general trend of fighting against Dong, so they had to condemn Dong Zhuo while sending another general to participate in the alliance, while they stayed where they were and watched the feast.
The troops sent by these princes are not many, and the princes of the Nine Roads have not exceeded 10,000 troops except for the Jin army.
As for the Jin army, it is a bit special, they must belong to the active princes, but because Qin Wen's body is no longer able to lead the army, they can only send Qin Jian with the highest prestige.
Although the troops led by the princes of the Thirty-six Roads are uneven, they are also an extremely large number when they are gathered.
When all the princes were gathered, Qin Hao sent someone to count the total number of coalition troops and found that there were a full 540,000 troops.
540,000 troops, this has exceeded all the troops under Dong Zhuo's command.
Dong Zhuo's troops can have a total of 500,000, but it is impossible for him to transfer all the troops, and get rid of the basic strength of the garrison states and counties, Dong Zhuo can mobilize a maximum of 300,000 troops to fight with the coalition army.
In this way, this big battle has become, 540,000 princes coalition army VS 300,000 Liangzhou army.
The coalition has an absolute numerical advantage, but that doesn't mean it's a sure win.
Although the number of coalition forces is large, the quality is a little flattering, but the Liang army is different, and the overall quality of the soldiers is higher than that of the coalition army.
In addition, the 540,000 coalition forces belong to different forces, and if there is no strong alliance leader, it will be difficult to unite and work together.
Although the 300,000 Liangzhou Army also belonged to different factions, the whole still belonged to the Liangzhou Army as a whole, so it was naturally much more united than the coalition army.
From these two points, it can be seen that the battle against Dong is not so easy to fight, and there must be a strong alliance leader to ensure that the coalition army can defeat the Liang army.
The two armies of Qin and Jin shared a large battalion, and after the arrival of the Jin army, Qin Hao's strength also increased to 110,000, reaching one-fifth of the coalition army.
With the strength alone, Qin Hao has already crowned the major princes, which is enough to sit on the position of the leader of the alliance.
But for the sake of insurance, Qin Hao is still courting the major princes, even if this may be a snake to add to the problem, but there is no harm in having a good relationship with the princes.
The lineup of generals dispatched by the Jin army this time is also very luxurious, in addition to Qin Jian, the main general, there are also Zhao Yun, Xu Huang, Qin Qiong, Wei Chigong, Guan Sheng, Luo Cheng and other generals, and the remaining Li Dingguo, Luo Yi and other generals are all staying in the state.
As for Qin Hao, there are even more strong generals here, not only Li Cunxiao, Ran Min and Jiang Song, these three gods of war with super divine skills, but also Pei Yuanqing, Xiong Kuohai, Xue Rengui, Xu Chu, Huang Zhong, Qin Yong and other god generals, Su Dingfang, Lin Chong, Qin Ming and other super first-class masters, the lineup is not even inferior to Dong Zhuo.
It is worth mentioning that after Cheng Yanjin was ransomed, after learning that Qin Hao was Qin Qiong's brother, he agreed to join the Qin army without thinking about it.
When he learned that Qin Hao had used three hundred pieces of armor to exchange for himself, Cheng Yanjin was even more moved to tears, he didn't expect that he would be so valuable.
