In addition, there were Liangzhou Muhuang Fu Song, the general of Zhenxi, the Jincheng Taishou Han Sui, and the Zhengxi general Wuwei Taishou Ma Teng sent troops in Liangzhou to attack Dong Zhuo's Chang'an and harass Dong Zhuo's rear. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

The right chariot cavalry general, together with Zhu Jun, the state pastor, Zhang Yang, the Taidang Taishou, and Liu Yu, the Taiwei Youzhou Mu, joined forces to garrison Hedong, preparing to cross the Yellow River from Hedong, attack Dong Zhuo's Hongnong County, and cut off Dong Zhuo's middle road.

Yizhou Mu Liu Yan did not express his position because his son was a hostage in Luoyang, but kept quiet and neutral; Yangzhou Thorn Shi Chen Wentuo attacked with mountains and did not participate; Liaodong Taishou Gongsun Du established himself as a marquis and maintained a relationship with Dong Zhuo; Although the Qingzhou Thorn Shi Kongzhou raised troops, due to the resurgence of the Qingzhou Yellow Turban, he did not participate in the alliance, and returned to Qingzhou and was besieged by the Yellow Turban, and he could not afford to be sick.

In this way, a total of twenty-two town princes crusaded against Dong Zhuo, which was more powerful than in history, mainly because Jin Liang successfully kept the young emperor Liu Wei and won the support of the royalists Huangfu Song, Zhu Jun, Liu Yu and others.

When Jin Liang arrived at Chenliu, the other fifteen princes were holding their troops, Jin Liang sent people to investigate, except for Yuan Shao, Yuan Shu, Liu Dai, Bao Xin brought 20,000 horses, the other princes were more than 10,000, and the few were only 6,000, many princes seemed to be just symbolizing 'sex' to send some people and horses to fill the number, these 15 people and horses together, only 200,000 horses, most of them were newly recruited, did not undergo strict training, did not go to the battlefield and saw blood, fortunately Jin Liang brought 40,000 ' Elite soldiers, otherwise, relying on these rabble, they are not Dong Zhuo's opponents at all.

At the same time, Dong Zhuo's side felt the threat of the Dong Alliance, so he frantically recruited troops and horses between Luoyang and Chang'an, in just five months, Dong Zhuo's side has accumulated 300,000 horses, the real main force is still 100,000 Xiliang Iron Cavalry, and the combat power of the other 200,000 soldiers is also above the Kwantung princes, because the Kwantung princes except Jin Liang, Sun Jian, Cao Cao, Gongsun Zan and others, the others are mostly children of the family, and they can sit and talk about it, if they go into battle to kill the enemy, they will not be caught.

Although Yuan Shao had previously discussed with Jin Liang to make Yuan Shao the leader of the general alliance and Jin Liang to be the deputy leader of the alliance, this decision had not yet been discussed with the Kwantung princes.

When Jin Liang arrived in Chenliu, Gao Shun and Huang Zhong had already set up camp, and Jin Liang and Zhang Liao's headquarters moved in smoothly.

When Jin Liang arrived, Chen Liutaishou Zhang Miao and Chen Liufuhu Weizi slaughtered cattle and horses together, held a feast, and assembled all the princes.

After three rounds of wine and five flavors of food, Han Fu, the assassin of Jingzhou, jumped out first: "Today, I will be the leader of the alliance; The crowd listened to the restraints, and then marched into the army. ”

Cao Cao also said: "Yuan Benchu's descendant, the fourth and third dukes, and many former officials, can be the leader of the alliance." ”

The Yuan party present such as the late general Nanyang Taishou Yuan Shu, Jingzhou Thorn Shi Han Fu, Yanzhou Thorn Shi Liu Dai, Pingyuan Xiang Cao Cao, Jibei Xiang Bao Xin, Dongjun Taishou Qiao Mao, Shanyang Taishou Yuan Yi and so on echoed one after another.

Yuan Shao pretended to resign, and hurriedly handed Jin Liang a 'look', signaling Jin Liang to stand up and make a final decision for himself and finalize the position of the leader of the alliance.

Jin Liang saw that more than half of the princes at the scene were Yuan's children and protégés, and knew that if he forced himself to be the leader of the alliance, it was estimated that few princes would agree, so he had to take out the bright and yellow 'color' silk book: "The holy purpose is here, and the princes everywhere listen to the truth!" ”

Fifteen princes and their subordinates knelt on the ground one after another, kneeling down to worship the holy decree of the Son of Heaven Liu Bian.

Although Liu Bian, the Son of Heaven, was not taken seriously by them, the combined power of Jin Liang, Lu Zhi, Zhu Jun, and Huangfu Song, who supported Liu Bian's ascendancy, was something they could not resist, not to mention that they needed Liu Biao to establish their legitimate rights and righteous 'nature' against Dong Zhuo.

Liu Bian's holy decree specified that Yuan Shao should be the leader of the Dong Alliance, Jin Liang would be the deputy leader, Cao Cao would be the general of Fenwu, and he would be the chief army of all the princes.

The princes of the Kwantung region all shouted long live.

After the decree was issued, Yuan Shao no longer pretended to resign, but accepted it as such.

On the second day, outside Chen Liucheng, in the middle of the camp of the princes of the Sixteenth Road, Chen Liutai guarded Zhang Miao and was responsible for building a three-story platform, listing the flags of the five directions, building a white and yellow Yue on it, and the soldiers would be sealed, and Yuan Shao, the leader of the Dong Alliance, was on the altar.

Yuan Shao dressed himself and wore a sword, and then burned incense and worshipped: "The Han family is unfortunate, and the imperial capital has fallen." The thief Dong Zhuo took advantage of the provocation and arson, bullied the royal family, 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 the queen of heaven, the ancestors and the spirits, are all learned! ”

Jin Liang stood under the stage and watched coldly, these princes from the children of the family can't fight, they are still good at playing tricks, so that Lao Tzu is a little embarrassed by them.

After the bloodshed was completed, Yuan Shao got off the high platform and began to raise the account, and the princes sat down according to their official positions and ages, and each prince was allowed to bring a few generals to observe.

Jin Liang, as the deputy leader of the Dong Alliance, sat under Yuan Shao, squinting his eyes at the princes and their generals present.

He saw at a glance that the transformed Liu Bei, Guan Yu who wore a green hat and squinted his eyes as if he was sleeping, and Zhang Fei, who had a swallow-jawed tiger beard and leopard head and eyes, stood behind Cao Cao with four clan brothers, not behind Gongsun Zhan, Jin Liang felt very strange, and after thinking about it, Cao Cao is now the plain minister, and he is the top boss of Liu Bei of the plain order, plus Cao Cao is very good at attracting talents, it is not surprising that Liu Guanzhang is temporarily attracted by him after all, it was good before, and Gongsun Zhan is far away in Beiping, Youzhou, far away from the plain, The whip is beyond reach, and it is not surprising that Liu Bei is temporarily attached to Cao Cao.

Guan Yu seemed to feel that Jin Liang was looking at him, his originally half-squinted eyes suddenly widened, and there was murder in his eyes, Liu Bei hurriedly pulled his sleeve robe: "Second brother, Jin Liang brought 40,000 'elite' soldiers, and our men and horses with Cao Gong are just enough for 10,000, don't make trouble!" Saying that, he gave Jin Liang a wink covertly. But at this time, after all, it was Liu Bei's form, and Jin's conscience flipped for a while, think about a big man throwing you flattery, you can imagine it!

Guan Yu forcibly pressed the killing machine in his heart, but Jin Liang looked at Guan Yu with a smile, Guan Yu Guan Yunchang, now not only your first love of Diao Chan was taken as a concubine by me Jin Liangna, but even your crush Du Xiuniang was also taken by me Jin Liang as a concubine, if this is a green hat, you are a green hat, I don't know why you like to be cuckolded so much, and you are addicted, it seems that this general is going to Pingyuan County another day to see how that Hu family looks. I didn't think Guan Yu was pleasing to the eye when I met before, and the arrogant character proved by history is really not very popular.

Jin Liang continued to scan the princes present, like the general Nanyang Taishou Yuan Shu, Jingzhou Thorn Shi Han Fu, Yuzhou Thorn Shi Liu Biao, Beihai Xiang Kong Rong, Jibei Xiang Bao Xin, Jin Liang had seen it when he was in Luoyang, although Xuzhou Thorn Shi Tao Qian met for the first time, Jin Liang no longer put him in his eyes, because Tao Qian is a dying old man, and his two sons Tao Ying and Tao Shang are mediocre and incompetent, and they are destined to make wedding dresses for others, which is not enough to worry about; Liu Dai, the assassin of Yanzhou, Yuan Yi of Shanyang, Qiao Mao of Zhendong County, and Zhang Chao of Guangling are all incompetent, and they can be destroyed overnight, and they are not enough to worry about.

In addition to Cao Cao and Liu Bei, Jin Liang was most afraid of Sun Zhan, the Taishou Gong of Beiping, and Sun Jian, the general of Zhendong.

Gongsun Chan is also a disciple of Lu Zhi, but Jin Liang only worshiped Lu Zhi as a teacher in September last year, Gongsun Chan was busy fighting with Xianbei, busy fighting with Liu Yu, and had no time to come to Xiangyang to meet the Son of Heaven and his teacher, so Jin Liang saw Gongsun Chan for the first time, and saw Gongsun Chan with a handsome appearance, long hair under his chin, a voice like a bell, a heroic demeanor, and informality, which was in stark contrast to the pretentious Yuan Shao.

Jin Liang's eyes flashed a cold light, if he wants to dominate the Central Plains, he must pacify Youzhou in the rear, and if he pacifies Youzhou, he will defeat Gongsun Zhan, it seems that after defeating Dong Zhuo, he will start a war with Gongsun Chan not long after, Gongsun Chan is not a stupid person, he also realized that Jin Liang is definitely not a thing in the pool, Jizhou and the two states cannot accommodate Jin Liang's ambitions, Jin Liang will come over sooner or later to plot against Youzhou, Gongsun Chan raised his head, his eyes were very sharp and looked at Jin Liang, Jin Liang smiled slightly, in order to show kindness, but Gongsun Chan glared at Jin Liang fiercely.

Jin Liang then remembered that this Gongsun Chan is not a good type, but a person who forgets his deeds and forgets kindness, and he will repay him, seeing that he has not come to visit his mentor Lu Zhi for several months, he can see that Gongsun Zhan's 'nature' is definitely not something that can be co-opted, and he must be eliminated in the future!

Jin Liang looked back at Zhao Yun behind him, and then at Gongsun Zhan, and couldn't help but secretly despise Gongsun Chan in his heart, so if you don't know people, you are destined to be eliminated in this historical tide, Gongsun Chan, maybe your fate in a different place is doomed.

Jin Liang glanced at Zhendong General Sun Jian again, this was the first time he saw Jiangdong Tiger Sun Jian Sun Wentai, only to see that this person was about thirty-four or five years old, he looked very strong and heroic, his eyes were sharp and sharp, and there was a domineering aura that could not be ignored all over his body.

Sun Jian is still quite grateful to Jin Liang, it was Jin Liang who recommended him as the Hanoi Taishou, and then he was ambushed, injured and did not arrive in time, before he was reappointed as Chen Guoxiang, he heard that Jin Liang in order to compensate him, but also specially recommended him as the general of Zhendong, Jin Liang to him Sun Jian can be said to be benevolent and righteous, Sun Jian saw Jin Liang look over, so he smiled and nodded to show kindness, Jin Liang also smiled and nodded.

The four generals behind Sun Jian are all heroic and fierce, and Jin Liang guessed that it should be Cheng Pu, Huang Gai, Han Dang, and Zu Mao.

At present, there is no one who looks at the peak of the generals under his command is Yuan Shu and Yuan Shao, and there are one or twenty generals standing behind each of them, but these generals are all nominal people, and together they are probably not as good as Sun Jian's four generals.

Sun Jian looked sideways at the former general Runan Taishou Yuan Shao, who was sitting in the first place, and couldn't help but flash a cold light in his eyes, Sun Jian completely knew who was behind the scenes when he sent troops to ambush him when he went to Hanoi to take up his post last year! Hmph, with Jin Liang in the imperial court, you Yuan Shao don't want to install your cronies in Hanoi County, Yuan Shao is really a fool who harms others and is not good for himself!

Jin Liang's soldiers and horses are the most prosperous, Jin Liang's martial arts are the strongest, Jin Liang only saw Sun Jian's irrepressible domineering aura all over his body, but he didn't know that the domineering aura on his body was also soaring to the sky, Yuan Shao, as the leader of the alliance, sat on the side of Jin Liang, the deputy leader of the alliance, and was intimidated by the murderous aura on Jin Liang's body, and he was uncomfortable.

Cao Cao, as a general of Fenwu, is the chief army of the princes of the Sixteenth Road, in fact, he can't supervise these proud princes, what he can do is to coordinate as much as possible, he sees that Yuan Shao's aura can't match Jin Liang at all, Jin Liang looks forward to Shenfei, sits in the big tent, overpowers Yuan Shao, and said: "Since the Son of Heaven has set Yuan Benchu as the leader of the alliance, please listen to the dispatch of all the princes, support the country together, and don't care about the strength or weakness." ”

When Cao Cao said this, his eyes were fixed on Jin Liang, and Jin Liang knew what Cao Cao meant, so he laughed at it.

Yuan Shao stretched his face and said sharply: "Although Shao is not talented, since he is trusted by the Son of Heaven and ordered to be the leader of the alliance, he will definitely be rewarded for his merits, and he will be punished for his crimes." The state has permanent punishment, and the army has discipline. Obey it and do not transgress it. ”

Jin Liang followed the other princes and lazily arched his hand: "But the alliance lord is to listen!" ”

Yuan Shao looked at the princes present: "I need one person to have the governor of grain and grass to deal with the battalions, there is no shortage, I belong to my brother Yuan Shu, do you have any objections?" ”

Before Jin Liang came, he knew that the grain and grass brought by the princes from all walks of life were less than a month, and the grain and grass brought by his central army was enough for a month, and it would be continuously transported from Jizhou and Hanoi County.

Jin Liang arched his hand and said: "Back to the alliance leader, my central army is short of food and grass, and I don't want to affect everyone, I am willing to raise my own grain and grass, please forgive the alliance leader." ”

Yuan Shu was angry and stood up: "Deputy Alliance Master Jin, what do you mean, can't you believe me Yuan Shu?!" ”

Jin Liang laughed and said: "Brother Highway, you think too much, it's not that I don't believe in you, but I believe in you too much, so I don't want to burden you." ”

A cold light flashed in Yuan Shao's eyes, but he knew that most of the soldiers and horses brought by the Kwantung princes were rabble, and he also needed Jin Liang's central army to fight a hard battle for the allies, he didn't want to offend Jin Liang for the time being, looked at Yuan Shu, shook his head gently, Yuan Shu understood, and sat down and stopped talking.

Yuan Shao said with a smile: "In this case, the grain and grass of the Jin Vice Alliance Master will be prepared by himself, and the grain and grass of the other princes must be 'handed over' to my brother Yuan Shu for unified deployment!" ”

Most of the remaining princes were protégés of the Yuan family, and they didn't dare to object, so they had to accept it, and Sun Jian, the general of Zhendong, had something to say, and when the words came to his mouth, he swallowed them again.

Cao Cao arched his hand and said: "Alliance leader, our sixteenth road princes have nearly 300,000 horses, all in Chenliu, the camp stretches for dozens of miles, just attacking Xingyang is useless, it is better to divide the troops in several places and march together, so that Dong Thief can't care about each other and is tired of coping!" ”

Yuan Shao came out to crusade against Dong Zhuo this time, and brought the trial and Guo Tu, these two people are not considered schemists, and Yuan Shao has no military concept in his head, listening to Cao Cao's words, it makes sense, so he asked: "In Meng De's opinion, how to divide the army?" ”

Cao Cao took out a very scribbled map and ordered the soldiers to hang it on the side of the big tent, and Cao Cao pointed with his hand: "

In the northwest direction, Jin Liang, the deputy leader of the alliance and the general of the expedition to the south, was invited to lead the troops to attack Mengjin Pass.

In the southwest direction, Yingchuan Taishou Wang Kuang and Yuzhou Assassin Liu Biao attacked Yuyuan Pass from Yingchuan.

Due south, there are generals Nanyang Taishou Yuan Shu and Jingzhou Assassin Han Fu to attack Taigu Pass from Luyang.

In the direction of due north, Zhu Jun, the general of the right chariot cavalry, Zhang Yang, the Taishou of Shangdang, and Liu Yu, the Tai Lieutenant, were invited to attack Shaanxi County and Hongnong from Hedong.

Due west, there are invited left chariot cavalry general Huangfu Song, Zhenxi general Han Sui, and Zhengxi general Ma Teng to attack Chang'an from Liangzhou.

Due east, the rest of our princes from Chenliu attacked the line of Xingyang, Yanshi, and Hugao Pass.

In this way, the six ways go hand in hand, and the discipline of Dong Thief cannot take care of each other, and it will not take long to defeat Dong Thief. ”

After Cao Cao finished speaking, Yuan Shao stroked his palms and laughed: "Meng De's plan is very good, so he will do it." ”

Jin Liang smiled coldly and said, "Brother Benchu, Brother Meng De, now that the army has gathered together and started to transfer troops, it's too late!" What's more, Brother Benchu has already arranged for the highway brothers to supervise the grain and grass, how can he let him go to Luyang again! ”

Yuan Shao's face sank, but Cao Cao was not worried, and said with a slight smile: "Then in the opinion of the deputy alliance leader, how to transfer troops?" ”

Jin Liang took out a map, which was obviously much clearer than Cao Caogang's: "I have already informed the right chariot cavalry general Zhu Jun, the party commander Zhang Yang, and the captain Liu Yutun to the east of the army, and the general Xu Huang under my command to respond, waiting for the opportunity to attack Shaanxi County and Hongnong from Hedong. I have also already informed the left cavalry general Huangfu Song, the Zhenxi general Han Sui, and the Zhengxi general Ma Teng to wait for the opportunity to attack Chang'an from Liangzhou. As for the northwest direction, I have sent my general Zhang Jaw to lead 10,000 horses and horses to wait for the opportunity to attack Mengjin Pass from Hanoi, and he has tens of thousands of county troops to respond, so I do not need to send any more troops. In the south direction, there is a request for Jingzhou Thorn Shi Han Fu to attack and harass Taigu Pass from Luyang, without attacking, just attacking and harassing. ”

Yuan Shao's face was pale: "General Jin, although you are the general of the southern expedition and the military position is above me, but I am the leader of the alliance appointed by heaven, you are only the deputy leader of the alliance, don't rely on your high military rank and large number of troops, just give instructions at will, Zhu Jun and Huangfu Song should be ordered by me!" ”

Jin Liang sneered and said: "Zhu Jun and Huangfu Song are internal auxiliary ministers, and their military prestige is higher than yours, I am worried that they will not listen to your orders!" Besides, before you received the will of heaven, didn't you privately send Yingchuan Taishou Wang Kuangqi to attack Zhongmu, in a vain attempt to win the first credit for Dong! ”

Cao Cao glanced at the princes present, and found that Wang Kuang, the Taishou of Yingchuan, was really not there, so he couldn't help but pat his thigh: "Alliance leader, it is Xu Rong, a general under Dong Zhuo, who guards Zhongmu, Xu Rong is well versed in the art of war and is cautious in using soldiers, I am afraid that Wang Kuang's sneak attack will not succeed but will be taken by Xu Rong!" ”

Xu Rong in real history is not a waste material, in that history, when Sun Jian led the army to crusade against Dong Zhuo, Dong Zhuo first sent Xu Rong and Li Meng to attack, Xu Rong confronted Sun Jian in Liangrencheng, not only broke Sun Jian, but also captured Yingchuan Taishou Li Min alive, and put Li Min in the pot to cook, Sun Jian quickly transferred to Liangdong, but was defeated by Xu Rong, Sun Jian had to gather the scattered soldiers into Tunyang. Cao Cao, Bao Xin and others led their troops westward, met Xu Rong in Xingyang Bianshui, and was defeated by Xu Rong, Cao Cao was rescued by Cao Hong desperately and escaped alive, but Bao Xin's younger brother and Cao Cao's old friend Wei Zi all died in Bianshui. Xu Rong was able to defeat Sun Jian twice and defeat Cao Cao, which shows that he will be extraordinary.

Yuan Shao's jade-like face flashed with a burst of blue: "Meng De, why bother to raise the morale of others and destroy your own prestige!" Wang Kuang commanded the Taishan Township soldiers with 5,000 strong bows and crossbows, which were unstoppable, Xu Rong was born as a veteran in the army, and he knew what art of war! ”

Cao Cao and Jin Liang glanced at each other, their eyes showed disdain for Yuan Shao, Xu Rong climbed from a veteran soldier in the army to the position of Zhonglang General, which is a description of people's abilities, Yuan Shao is really stupid to judge his skills by his background.

Yuan Shao muttered: "Yesterday sent Wang Kuang to fight, and now there should be a return for the results!" ”

Yuan Shao didn't stop muttering, and he heard a cry outside the tent, and Yuan Shao's heart sank.

A soldier ran in from outside the tent, it was Wang Kuang's personal soldier, this personal soldier was still with arrow feathers inserted in his body, covered in blood, ran into the big tent, and shouted: "Alliance leader, we are ambushed, the whole army is annihilated, Wang Taishou was shot dead on the spot!" When the report was finished, the soldier pounced and fell to the ground.

The people of Mount Tai are fierce, and the archers recruited from there are extremely strong, and they can be regarded as the stronger ones among the princes of the Kwantung region, and they were wiped out overnight, and Wang Kuang's praised archers were all shot by the Xiliang soldiers, which is really a great irony. (To be continued.) )
