Chapter 217: The Sour Jujube Association is over
On the altar, the things used for sacrifice had already been prepared, so what Yuan Shao did was just going through the motions. The pen & fun & pavilion www.biquge.info ascended the altar, symbolically performed the ritual, and then began to read the covenant aloud:
"The Han family is unfortunate, and the emperor is out of control. The thief Dong Zhuo, took advantage of the provocation and indulgence, added disaster to the supreme, and abused the people. Shao and others were afraid of the loss of the society, entangled the volunteers, and went to the country. Whoever is allied with me and works together to make the ministers have no two aspirations. There is this alliance of Chongqing, and it is impossible to lose its life, and there is no legacy. The emperor and queen of heaven, the ancestors of the Ming Ling, are all learned. ”
After reading it, Yuan Shao pulled out the sword at his waist and cut off his fingers, a trace of blood flowed out, dripping into a bowl of wine, and the rest of the people repeated the same action.
At the beginning of November 190 A.D., Yuan Shao took office as the leader of the alliance of the Dong coalition army in Suojube, and appointed himself the general of the chariot and cavalry, and named Yuan Shu as the rear general, and the rest of them had their own rewards.
The rebel army had a total of seventeen princes, the first town, and the later general Nanyang Taishou Yuan Shu; the second town, Jizhou Thorn Shi Han Fu; the third town, Yuzhou Thorn Shi Kong Ling; the fourth town, Yanzhou Thorn Shi Liu Dai; The fifth town, Hanoi County Tai Shou Wang Kuang; In the sixth town, Chen Liutai guarded Zhang Miao; The seventh town, Dongjun Taishou Qiao Mao; The eighth town, Shanyang Taishou Yuan's legacy; The ninth town, Jibei Xiang Baoxin; The tenth town, Beihai Taishou Kongrong; The eleventh town, Guangling Taishou Zhang Chao; The twelfth town, Xuzhou Thorn Shi Taoqian; The thirteenth town, Xiliang Taishou Ma Teng; The fourteenth town, the general of Zhengbei, the Taishou Huo Yu of Liaodong; The fifteenth town, Shangdang Taishou Zhang Yang; The sixteenth town, Wucheng Hou Changsha Taishou Sun Jian; The seventeenth town, Hou Bohai of Qi Township, guarded Yuan Shao.
The coalition army claimed to be 600,000, but in fact it was less than 300,000, and Ma Teng did not arrive at Xiliang, which was far away.
Later, Yuan Shuzheng was appointed as the grain and grass supervisor, responsible for the allocation of grain and grass in the whole army, and Cao Cao was responsible for supervising the military discipline of the whole army. The news immediately reached Luoyang, and the entire government and the opposition were in an uproar.
"Ladies and gentlemen, who wants to be the vanguard in the first battle of the coalition forces?" Yuan Shao, who was sitting on the main seat, said in high spirits.
All the princes, look at me, and I see that you are not listed. Zhang Fei behind Huo Yu was a little uneasy, but he was blocked by Huang Zhong behind him, this kind of thing is not something they can call the shots as subordinates.
Yuan Shao's eyes swept over, the first battle must be won, he hoped that Huo Yu would take the initiative to ask for battle, but when he looked at Huo Yu, Huo Yu did not look at him, and in desperation, Yuan Shao swept away again.
In the corner of the big tent, Sun Jian first looked at Huo Yu, and then stepped forward. Originally, he thought that Huo Yu, the general of the expedition to the north, would seize the vanguard position, but Huo Yu turned a blind eye and had no intention of sending troops. At this time, Sun Jian did not hesitate, got up and said: "The leader of the alliance, I am willing to be the pioneer and take the Surabaya Pass!" ”
"Hahahaha! Wentai is brave and will definitely be able to win the Bishui Pass! After finishing speaking, he handed over the general to Sun Jian.
Sun Jian, who was too commanded, left excitedly, and Huo Yu was doing a fierce ideological struggle at this time.
"Save? Don't save? After thinking about it, Huo Yu decided that it was better to come to the rescue, after all, Sun Jian was not hostile to him but showed his intimacy, maybe it was because of Zhu Jun.
Not long after Sun Jian left, Huo Yu found an excuse to get out of the Chinese army's big tent. The boasting and strange talk of those people in the tent is unbearable. Especially those brothers who flattered Yuan Shao, they were really shameless.
Out of the big tent, Huo Yu immediately ordered Liao Hua to return to the camp to prepare a grain and grass to send to Sun Jianjun's camp, and then he hurriedly went first.
In Sun Jian's camp, Sun Jian, who had just returned to the position of pioneer, was convening the generals in the tent. Suddenly, I heard that the guards came to report, and Huo Yu, the general of Zhengbei, asked to see him. Wen Shi, Sun Jian immediately got up and went out of the tent to greet him!
"Hahaha! Huo Zhengbei is here, there must be something important, please come into the account and talk! "Although Sun Jian is a straight man, he is not stupid, as soon as he arrives on the front foot, Huo Yu will come to discuss something with the back foot.
"Brother Wentai saw outside, the crusade against the yellow scarf that day, the brother was under the account of Uncle Zhu Shi, the brother heard about it, and he hated to see each other late! How about being called brothers? ”
"In that case, I'll hold it up!"
"Brother Wentai, please, Brother Po Xian, please! Hahahaha! The two laughed and entered the tent, Huo Yu saw that Sun Jian's four generals were all there, and there was also a young general, who looked very similar to Sun Jian, so there was no need to guess that it must be Sun Ce, who would be known as the Jiangdong Tiger in the future.
After taking his seat, Sun Jian introduced his subordinates one by one, but he did not introduce Sun Ce, because he didn't want outsiders to know! Huo Yu didn't break it when he saw this, but talked and laughed with everyone.
"What's the important matter for Brother Broken Brother to come here?" After chatting for a while, Sun Jian went straight to the topic.
"Don't hide it from Brother Wentai, but my brother is here to have something important!" Huo Yu said lightly.
"Brother Xian has something to say, for my brother is a straight man!"
Half an hour later, Huo Yu told all the things he knew, but these were just his personal suggestions, the most important thing was to tell Sun Jian to be careful of the Yuan family brothers, and clearly said that he would arrange a batch of grain and grass to be sent over later.
Hearing that there was grain and grass to be sent, Sun Jian happily patted Huo Yu on the shoulder. This time, there are not many grains and herbs for the sour dates of the alliance, and Huo Yu's move is undoubtedly a relief in the snow.
"The love of a virtuous brother will be rewarded for his brother in the future!"
"Brother Wentai is serious, and he is also a thief in the country, as it should be! Among this coalition, there are only a few people who can really contribute. ”
After finishing speaking, a personal guard happened to report that the food sent by the Liaodong Army had arrived. After receiving the food, Huo Yu said goodbye and returned to the camp, and when he left, he told Sun Jian again to beware of night attacks, and if there was any difficulty, he could send someone to report, and he would do his best.
Looking at Huo Yu's departing back, Sun Jian turned around and returned to the big tent without saying a word.
"Lord (father)?" The crowd asked.
"Huo Yu is worthy of deep friendship! The order goes down to the whole army to prepare, and the troops will send out to the water pass early tomorrow morning! After Sun Jian finished speaking, he waved everyone back, leaving Sun Ce by his side.
"Bo Fu, if you have any difficulties in the future, you can find Huo Yu!"
"Father?"
Don't ask why, trust your own judgment for the Father! Do you ever remember? ”
"The kid wrote it down!"
Early the next morning, Sun Ce led the men and horses of his headquarters and headed towards Bishui Pass.
Luoyang, in recent days, Dong Zhuo has been living in the palace, and countless concubines and palace maids have been played with by him and died, and the entire palace, including Emperor Liu Xie, is regarded as a demon.
Fortunately, news came out in recent days that the princes of Kwantung gathered on the 17th Road and raised 600,000 troops to defeat Dong Zhuo. Although there is a natural danger of Bishui Pass, Liu Xie already has hope in his heart.
On the palace hall, Dong Zhuo angrily swung his sword and slashed several eunuchs and palace maids before he stopped his anger! In his heart, he secretly scolded Yuan Shao for being despicable and shameless.
"Father-in-law, the Allied Army's Art of War, Bishui Pass, because I immediately sent a general to guard the town!" Li Ru reminded at the right time.
"Father-in-law, the child is willing to go!" As soon as he heard that there was a fight, Lu Bu was as excited as if he had been beaten.
"Lord, kill chickens with a knife! The last general Huaxiong is willing to go! ”
Dong Zhuo laughed, first appeased Lu Bu, and then ordered Hua Xiong to lead 50,000 troops, assisted by Li Su to go to Bishui Pass to guard!
