Chapter 193: Two Alliance Leaders
As soon as Yuan Shao's voice fell, Cao Cao immediately echoed and said: "At the beginning, this is a great goodness, at the moment, I have nearly one million soldiers and horses in the Kanto region, and it seems that there are many people, twice as many as Dong Zhuo, but in fact, if you can't gather the strength of the heroes, not to mention against Dong Zhuo, it has been a long time, and I don't need Dong Zhuo to attack, I am afraid that there will be civil strife, so the original words are really old ministers seeking the country."

"Mengde has an overreputation." Yuan Shao and Cao Cao have played together since childhood, and they used to be one of the best gentlemen in Luoyang City, although they have done a lot of ridiculous things, but the two have also confirmed the old saying: It is difficult to be a confidant and an enemy.
After Cao Cao finished speaking, Su Chen also continued: "Big brother, what the third brother said is very true, our eighteenth road princes raised troops to fight against Dong Zhuo, plus the third brother's soldiers and horses, a total of nineteen roads, the nineteen road princes have different thoughts, the top priority is to elect a respected alliance leader at tomorrow's flag sacrifice ceremony, command in the center, in addition to set up a military division, for the coalition army to give advice." β
Because Cao Cao brought 10,000 people, all of whom were newly surrendered to him and some brothers in the clan, although Cao Cao's official position was not low, but because he had no local foundation, it was not easy to gather so many soldiers and horses after leaving Luoyang.
There was nothing about Cao Cao's assassination of Dong Zhuo in this time and space, so there was no chance for him to increase his fame, and in the eyes of the Taishou assassination Shi Zhoumu who had tens of thousands of soldiers, Cao Cao really couldn't be said to be a prince all the way.
It's not that Cao Cao didn't think about being with Dong Zhuoxu and the snake, but with Lu Bu as a military general in the realm of gods, unless Cao Cao was disgusted with his life, he would never do such a brainstorming thing.
Su Chen's words were very touching to both Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu, and Yuan Shu took the first step to ask: "Fifth brother, according to your words, who can serve as the leader of the alliance of the princes of the Nineteen Roads?" β
As soon as these words came out, whether it was Yuan Shao, Cao Cao or Yuan Shu and Sun Jian, they all focused their eyes on him, for a while he only felt Alexander, but this question could not be answered, so he had to say: "I look at the princes of the nineteen roads, such as fame, the position of the leader of the alliance is not the original and the two brothers of the road, as we all know, Yuan's protΓ©gΓ©s are all over the world, the fourth world and the third duke, famous in the sea, even if it is a family Yue, but also praise Yuan's family style, often in the academy Yuan's family style to admonish disciples, so in the younger brother's view, It is necessary for the two brothers to be the leaders of the alliance. β
"This ......"
Seeing this, Su Chen continued to say what he thought in his heart: "Big brother, second brother, now Dong Zhuo is guarding Luoyang, and he has sent his general Hua Xiong to guard Bishui Pass, and it is not feasible to attack Luoyang all the way, so the younger brother suggested that two alliance leaders on the left and right should be set up to attack Luoyang and attack Luoyang in two ways. As long as either side succeeds, we can quickly attack Luoyang. β
"Two alliance leaders?" The Yuan brothers glanced at each other, as if this proposal was very tempting, Yuan Shu took the lead and said: "The words of the fifth brother are very much in line with my wishes, let's do it." β
Yuan Shao also nodded rarely, Su Chen took the opportunity to say: "Big brother, you should be the leader of the left alliance, responsible for the overall situation, the second brother is the leader of the right alliance, responsible for attacking Bishui Pass, and the third brother and the fourth brother are both resourceful and can serve as the left and right military divisions of the alliance. β
"Fifth brother, what you said is a bit modest, with your talent, you should be the leader of this alliance." Yuan Shao was in a happy mood and praised him.
Yuan Shu was also unwilling, and said: "Yes, I agree with the words of the eldest brother, who in this world does not know that the fifth brother Zhen Xianbei, Ping Yellow Turban, and his military exploits are impressive, with your talent, you are only responsible for managing military supplies and grass, which is really a little wronged." β
The more the two of them said this, the happier he became, he didn't have any interest in the position of the leader of the Raush Alliance, and Dong Zhuo's subordinates were not vegetarians, so they could take this opportunity to weaken the strength of the Yuan brothers, and even provoke the Yuan family's internal strife, so why not do it?
Only Cao Cao listened to Su Chen's words, and glanced at him with a little meaning, with Cao Cao's strategic vision, how could he not understand, the most important thing in this war is grain and grass, the Yuan brothers seem to be the leaders of the alliance, and they are majestic, but in fact, the lifeblood of grain and grass is in Su Chen's hands, once he disagrees with a certain strategy, even as the leader of the alliance, he has to compromise, and with Su Chen's reputation, Hai Nai admires it, it can be said that the Yuan brothers, including him and Sun Jian, have gained face, and Su Chen has won the lining alone.
The five of them reached an agreement, and they drank very freely, and the plan was settled, and it was decided that someone would persuade the princes.
The next day, Su Chen ordered the men in the army to slaughter cattle and kill sheep, and the princes were assembled to discuss the strategy of marching into the army. Taishou Wang Kuang said: "Today, in the name of righteousness, the alliance leader will be established; The crowd listened to the restraints, and then marched into the army. β
Cao Cao replied: "Yuan Benchu is the fourth and third dukes, and he is a descendant of the famous ministers of the Han Dynasty, and he can be the leader of the alliance." β
Sun Jian also chimed in: "Yuan Highway can also be the leader of the alliance!" β
The group of heroes had long known that they would march in two ways and set up two alliance leaders, so Shanyang Taishou Yuan Yi said: "Why don't you set up two alliance leaders, one on the left and one on the right?" β
"Good!"
Yuan Shao was the initiator of this crusade against Dong Zhuo, and the Yuan brothers had a prominent background, and there were so many princes who endorsed them, and everyone had no opinions, so they immediately sacrificed to the sky and killed livestock to sacrifice the flag.
On the same day, three layers of the platform were built, the flags of the five parties were lined up, and the white and yellow Yue were built on it, and the soldiers were sealed, and Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu were invited to ascend the altar. Yuan Shao dressed himself and wore a sword, and then went up, burning incense and worshipping again. His alliance said: "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 the queen of heaven, the ancestors and the spirits, are all learned! β
Read the blood. Because of his generous rhetoric, everyone wept and wept. The blood is gone, and I go down the altar. Everyone helped Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu to sit in the tent, and the Yuan brothers sat side by side, and the two rows sat down according to the age of the title. Su Chen sat first on the left hand, Cao Cao sat first on the right hand, Cao Cao made several rounds of wine, and said: "Today, since the leader of the alliance has been established, everyone will listen to the dispatch and help the country together, and don't care about the strength or weakness." β
Yuan Shao, as the leader of the Left League, said unyieldingly: "Although Shao is not talented, he is promoted as the leader of the alliance by Chenggong and others, and he will be rewarded for his merits and punished for his crimes." The state has permanent punishment, and the army has discipline. Obey it and do not transgress it. β
Everyone said, "The only thing to do is to listen." Yuan Shao said again: "Julu Hou Su Xingyu is the governor of grain and grass, and he can deal with the camps, and there is no shortage of them. It is also necessary for one person to be the pioneer to meet the challenge of Bishui Pass. The rest of them are in danger and think they will respond. β
As soon as Yuan Shao's voice fell, Yuan Shu glanced at Sun Jian, and Sun Jian immediately came out.
