Volume 5 The Flame of the Burning Han Chapter 36 The Sour Jujube Alliance
Sour Zao County, Chenliu County, has shown an unprecedented grand occasion in recent days. On the four-sided road leading to the county, the sky is covered with flags and dust, and a group of Han troops are converging towards this small projectile land.
Outside the sour jujube city, there have already been countless military horses set up a boundless camp, but when you hear people cheering and horses shouting, you don't know how many troops are hoarded here.
In the camp, in the school field, on a platform as high as more than a zhang, there is a civil official holding a book and a generous speech, under the stage there are many iron armor, swords and swords, crowded with princes and civil and military talents from all over the country.
ββ¦β¦ The thief Dong Zhuo inherited the slight of the Han family, the weight of the armor soldiers, the Lingyue Imperial City, crossed the dynasty, raised the young master, mutilated the courtiers, beheaded the loyal and good, burned the palace, messed up the palace people, excavated the mausoleum, abused the ghosts and gods, passed the evil Emperor Tian, and turbid the soil. The gods are resentful, and there is nothing to rely on, and trillions of people are weeping blood, and there is no accusation. Virtuous people, heartbroken, righteous people work hard, clouds and fog, salty desire to resign crimes, bow to heaven. After my alliance, Bi Li is deadly, in order to kill the fierce and ugly, the same award for the royal family, and the wings of the Son of Heaven. There is this alliance of Chongqing, the gods are dead, and they are falling into their divisions, and there is no Kezuo country! β
After the civil official finished reading, he saluted the audience in all directions, and shouted: "Xiaguan Guangling County Gong Cao Zanghong, you will not give up, and the oath of the association has been read!" From now on, follow all the people with lofty ideals and go to the national disaster together! β
"There is Brother Lao Ziyuan!" The civil ministers and military generals at all levels in the audience returned the salute one after another.
"Please-" Zang Hong shouted in a long voice: "Yuan Shao Yuan Benchu, the leader of the rebel alliance, the general of the chariot cavalry, and the captain of the commander!" β
Yuan Shao, who was dressed in iron armor, walked up the stairs, he nodded to Zang Hong, and stood at the top of the platform.
"Please ββ, the queen general, lead Nanyang to guard Yuan Shu Yuan Highway!" Yuan Shu, who had a modest face, slowly walked to the stage and stood on Yuan Shao's side.
"Please ββ, Yanzhou Thorn Shi Liu Dai Liu Gongshan!"
"Please ββ, Yuzhou Thorn Shi Kong Ling Kong Gongxu!"
"Please ββ, Qingzhou Thorn Shi Jiao and Jiao Yuanguang!"
"Please. Hanoi is too observant of Wang Kuang's Prince's Day! β
"Please ββ, Chen Liutai, guard Zhang Miao, Zhang Mengzhuo!"
"Pleaseββ, Guangling is too guarded by Zhang Chao and Zhang Menggao!"
"Please ββ, Dongjun Taishou Bridge Maoqiao Yuanwei!"
"Please ββ, Shanyang Taishou Yuan Boye!"
"Please ββ, Jibei Prime Minister Bao Xin Bao Yuncheng!"
"Pleaseββ, Fenwu General Cao Cao Mengde!"
"Pleaseββ, fake Sima Zhang Yang Zhang Zhi Uncle!"
With the sound of Zang Hong's reading, one by one the civil ministers and military generals stepped onto the stage and stood in order. At the end of the end is a pool of talents, heroes gathered.
Zang Hong finished reading it again, and then said with a smile: "In addition to everyone here, there are also many colleagues such as Wang Rui, the assassin of Jingzhou, Xu Ling, the prime minister of Chen Guo, Sun Jian, the Taishou of Changsha, and Liu Xiang, the Taishou of Jiangxia. Give me back my big man! β
Yuan Shao also shouted in a deep voice: "Not bad! This time, we will gather the alliance army, which can be described as an unprecedented grand occasion, with a total strength of 300,000 troops! As long as we are together, we are sincere. If you want to get the head of Dong Thief, it's only in the palm of your hand! β
Tens of thousands of soldiers in the school field were enthusiastic when they heard this, and they were even more shocked by the prosperity of their own army, and they all raised their arms and cheered.
"Everyone!" Yuan Shao looked around. Said happily: "I will be grateful to be promoted by you as the leader of the alliance...... Since you have an important position, you should do your best! β
He waved his hand. Immediately, a soldier carried over the map made of giant cloth: "This time, our army is strong, and Dong Thief's army is limited. I will, the soldiers will be divided into four ways and take Luoyang ......"
"Report!" Yuan Shao was interrupted by the voice of an officer in the distance, and he was stunned: "What's the matter?" Will reinforcements arrive? β
"General!" The officer said loudly: "There is a troop of soldiers and horses from outside the battalion, claiming to be Liu Bei, the commander of Gaotang County!" Come to the Alliance! β
"Oh! It's Xuande! Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu shouted together, although there was joy on their faces, their eyes were a little disapproving. They originally invited Gongsun Zhan, but they did not come for some reason, but recommended their deputy Liu Bei. Due to the close relationship between Yuan Shu and Gongsun Zhan, Yuan Shao also falsely expressed Liu Bei as the commander of Gaotang County.
Soon, Liu Bei, who was dressed in leather armor, hurriedly walked in, and Guan Zhang and the two were still accompanied by him. He saluted to the general: "I've seen all the dukes!" β
"Xuande is here!" Yuan Shu smiled and said, "Brother Gongsun has always been good? β
"Thank you Highway General for remembering, Brother Gongsun is busy with side affairs and has no time to separate, so he specially ordered the officer to lead 3,000 troops to come to help the war!" Liu Bei replied calmly.
"Good!" Yuan Shu nodded and said, "Don't go on stage to listen to the tune?" β
Yuan Shao sneered in his heart, before the joint fight against Dong Zhuo and Nanying, he and Yuan Shu secretly reached an offensive and defensive alliance, in order to enhance his strength, he had sent Chen Yiqiu Yi to Danyang to recruit elite soldiers, although Gongsun Zhan was far away in Youzhou, but after hearing about it, he just intervened, and also appointed this Liu Bei as Qiu Yi's deputy, nothing more than wanting to get a piece of the pie, why didn't he see him busy with side affairs at that time? When expanding strength, he spares no effort, but when he goes into battle, he only thinks about preserving his strength...... This grandson Boqi is really an old fox!
He secretly slandered in his stomach, but his face was silent, and he said hello to Liu Bei before continuing: "The general intends to send troops to four ways and take Luoyang together, so that Dong Zhuo's thief will be left and right, and it will be difficult to take care of the beginning and the end!" The specific division of troops is as follows, led by the general Hanoi Taishou Wang Kuang, the fake Sima Zhang Yang, and the Fenwu general Cao Cao led 70,000 troops, crossed the river and stationed in Hanoi to attract the main force of the Dong army; Led by the later general Yuan Shu......."
While the heroes were listening attentively, an officer rushed all the way and shouted, "Report! Changsha guarded Sun Jian, led 25,000 troops, and came to the alliance! β
"Twenty-five thousand?" Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu were stunned, and couldn't help exchanging a skeptical look. Even among the heroes, there was a "buzzing" whisper.
Although this Sun Jian has broken the bandit army in recent years and gained fame, the population of Changsha is not abundant, and he has come thousands of miles away, how can he bring so many soldiers and horses? Even after Yuan Shao annexed Han Fu's subordinates, with the population of Jizhou, he only had more than 30,000 troops. The rest of the assassins and county guards here are all in the periphery, it is not difficult to transport supplies, and most of the troops they bring are between 15,000 and 20,000, how did he Sun Jian conjure up so many soldiers and horses?
"Good! Sun Wentai's courage is well known to the world, and it is rare for him to be so concerned about national affairs. Bring so many elite soldiers and strong generals, why worry about the thief? After Yuan Shu was stunned for a moment, he immediately said with a happy face: "Originally, how about I go and greet him?" β
Yuan Shao hadn't answered yet, only to hear a majestic voice shouting in the distance: "Thank you generals for your kindness, Sun has already come!" β
Sun Jianda, who was dressed in gold armor, walked into the school field, followed by Sun Ce, Cheng Pu, and Huang Gaizhu.
"Haha! O Wentai! Yuan Shao and the others all happily surrendered.
Yuan Shu smiled: "The day before yesterday, I heard that Wentai had marched to Jingzhou, but I didn't expect it to be so fast!" That's right, on the Wentai along the way. Have you ever seen the soldiers and horses of Wang Rui, the assassin of Jingzhou? β
"Wang Rui?" Sun Jian walked to the general staircase, and couldn't help but laugh when he heard the words: "He has also arrived!" β
"Oh? Where are the people? Everyone was stunned again, since it was also here, why didn't anyone spread it?
"He's right here!" Sun Jian shook his hand and threw a burden and rolled down at Yuan Shu's feet.
Yuan Shu saw that the burden was covered with blood, and his heart couldn't help sinking, he opened it and looked at it, and said in a lost voice: "You! How did you kill Wang Rui? β
There was a lot of chaos on and off the stage, among the heroes. Some people looked shocked, some people were at a loss, some people had their knives half-sheathed, and some people were unmoved. Everyone's eyes were focused on Sun Jian, see how he explained?
"Humph!" Sun Jian smiled coldly: "This Wang Rui deserves to die, because he has become Dong Zhuo's lackey!" When our army arrived in Jingzhou, he secretly mobilized a large army to prepare for a sneak attack. Fortunately, Liu Xiang, the Taishou of Jiangxia, came to report to me...... So the two of us joined forces and slew it! β
He said calmly: "What? Do you think it's inappropriate for me to do so? β
The heroes suddenly realized that Sun Jian was a man who had annexed Wang Rui. No wonder there are so many troops.
"Well killed!" Yuan Shao felt sorry in his heart, he knew that Wang Rui was so vulnerable, and he was a person on Dong Zhuo's side, wouldn't it be better to start by himself? gave so many soldiers and horses to Sun Jian in vain......
But he praised: "The thief who is rebellious, everyone will be punished!" β
When the heroes saw that the alliance leader spoke first, they were all silent, and a tense crisis seemed to have disappeared. However, this Wang Rui turned out to be a heavyweight on the list of Dong Qunxiong, but it was difficult to distinguish the truth and died at the hands of the allies, which made Qunxiong have a trace of ominous meaning in his heart that he was lost before the battle.
Yuan Shu saw that the heroes were silent, and immediately changed the topic and said: "Wentai came just in time, the alliance leader is discussing with us the strategy of dividing troops against the enemy, you hurry up and listen to it!" β
"Alliance leader? What alliance leader? Sun Jian was stunned and said, "Why doesn't Ben know?" β
Yuan Shao's face turned pale, but he immediately smiled very gracefully and did not speak.
Shanyang Taishou Yuan Yi is also a member of the Yuan family, and he said: "Yuan Benchu is the fourth and third dukes, and he has the merit of eradicating the traitorous party, which can be said to be expected!" Before Sun Changsha came here, we had already discussed supporting him as the leader of the alliance! β
"So I said Brother Benchu!" Sun Jian's face was abrupt, and he arched his hand towards Yuan Shao and said, "The original is strange, and the junior brother didn't know about it in advance......"
Yuan Shao must be in his heart, and was about to say a few words with a smile, but he heard Sun Jian say again: "I only choose the leader of the alliance, it must be that person, but I don't know why you pushed the original?" β
Hearing him say this, the heroes were even more stunned.
"Who is Wentai talking about?" Yuan Shao was furious in his heart, but he said humbly on his face: "You might as well name that person, if it is indeed a person who is famous all over the world, he will naturally abdicate and make way for Xian!" β
Sun Jian laughed, and was about to open his mouth, when he suddenly heard another officer rushing all the way, shouting: "Report!" Ten miles east of the camp, another army of soldiers and horses drove quickly! β
"Who's coming?" Everyone blurted out together.
"My subordinates don't know!" The officer said with a blank face: "The person who came did not show the name and banner of the main general, but I saw countless black eagle banners waving in the wind!" β
"Black Hawk Banner?" Not only did Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu change color at the same time, but some well-informed princes were also shocked.
Only Cao Cao showed a smile and whispered to himself: "It turns out that the general has arrived!" β
"Haha!" Sun Jian smiled and said, "The person I was talking about seems to have come!" β
"It turns out that Wentai said that he is Yingyang Zhonglang General!" Yuan Shao froze and reluctantly smiled: "If it's him, I really don't dare to compare with him!" β
As soon as these words came out, the generals were silent on the stage, and no one spoke out to refute them. Talking about this Eagle Yang Zhonglang General, many people are indeed like thunder, not to mention that this person is the first emperor's favorite general, and he has the imperial decree of the Son of Heaven on three sides, which is the merit of his people's conquest in the north and south, and no one here can compare with it.
"Do you know how strong it is?" Yuan Shu was a little chilled. On the same day, Nanying was chased and killed outside Luoyang City, and he Yuan Highway also had a share, if he was investigated according to Nanying's temper, I was afraid that disaster would come!
"At least ten thousand," replied the officer without hesitation.
The ambitions of the group were relieved at the same time, and Yuan Shao was even more relieved. It turned out that the dignified Eagle Yang Zhonglang General was just here to respond to the scene, with his subordinates having many generals and generals, only bringing 10,000 people, what face did he have to grab the throne of the alliance leader?
ββ¦β¦ It's all cavalry! And thousands of tanks! The officer continued.
"What?" Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu shook violently at the same time, and shouted loudly. (To be continued......)
