Chapter 30: The Alliance

Zhang Zai set off from the Yin Pavilion and passed through the Shangdang, which coincided with the Shangdang Taishou Zhang Yang raising troops to respond to the edict, so the two of them joined forces and went to the sour jujube together. Pen fun and pavilion www.biquge.info

Such a large-scale march, still no one to provoke, along the way officials heard that this is a crusade against Dong Zhuo's righteous army, have offered some food, and some want to join the army, Zhang Zai adhering to the idea of rather lack than indiscriminate, selected a group of sturdy men, and the rest were all taken under Zhang Yang's command.

Along the way, I stopped and stopped, and when I reached the sour date, it was already evening a few days later.

The man who came to greet Zhang Zai and the others was a man with a somewhat short stature and a dark face.

Seeing Zhang Zai and the two coming on horseback, they greeted them and bowed first, and then said: "In Xia Cao Mengde, thank you for the two generals coming to the edict." ”

As soon as he heard that the person in front of him was the initiator of this edict, he returned the salute and reported his identity: "The party is too guarded and publicized in the lower party, and Brother Lao Mengde is waiting here." ”

Zhang Zai on the side is still observing the later generations of Emperor Cao Cao of Wei Wu, and it really lives up to the historical records, this Cao Cao is only about one meter six tall, with thick eyebrows and small eyes, and a long beard under his chin is combed and straight, which makes it difficult for people to have anything to do with the wise Shenwu after seeing it, but people can't look good, this Cao Cao's attributes are really strong.

"Cao Cao's character Mengde: 84 in force, 96 in command, 95 in intelligence, and 97 in politics."

"The camp has been prepared for Zhang Taishou, and I also ask the camp to speak." Cao Cao, as the landlord and the initiator of this alliance, was of course arranged by him.

"Brother Mengde, slow down." Stopping Cao Cao, who was about to drag himself to the camp, in Cao Cao's puzzled eyes, Zhang Yang introduced: "This is General Duliao, Yanmen Taishou Zhang Zai Zhang Zide, Brother Zide, don't say hello when you see Brother Meng De?" ”

Zhang Zai came back to his senses and smiled embarrassedly: "Seeing the assassination of Dong Thief, and the initiator of this alliance, I was a little curious, which made you laugh." Then he said to Cao Cao: "I hope Brother Meng De will not blame!" ”

Cao Cao has always been puzzled, who is the man dressed up next to Zhang Yang, and now he is even more surprised when his identity is revealed by Zhang Yang.

Zhang Zai's name he has also heard people mention, guarding Jinyang, expelling Xianbei, in the past two years, the border has been governed in an orderly manner, and foreign races dare not invade.

"General Zhang doesn't have to be polite." Cao Cao still has this kind of bearing, and said to the two: "The two of you, please, set up the camp, and set up a banquet for the two of you to catch the wind and wash the dust." ”

Along the way, Zhang Zai asked: "Brother Meng De, how many armies are there in this alliance?" ”

Cao Cao said: "There are a total of nineteen ways to assassinate Shi or Taishou to respond, and seventeen roads have arrived, and the two generals have arrived together." ”

When they arrived at a clearing place, Cao Cao said, "Two of you, please camp here." ”

The camp chosen by Cao Cao is good, the terrain here is flat, but it is a good place to camp, and there are already princes camping here next to it.

But Zhang Zai said: "Brother Mengde, there are abundant water and grass around, and there are some horses under Zai's command, so I'm afraid it will be a little inconvenient here." ”

Cao Cao suddenly said: "But negligently, Zide come with me." ”

"Thank you, Brother Mengde."

Immediately, the two armies separated, and Lieutenant General Zhang Zaijun followed Zhang Zai to the new station.

But this walk directly frightened Cao Cao, just now, more than 10,000 people passed the army, and the footsteps of Zhang Zai's subordinates were covered, but this separation directly frightened Cao Cao.

Zhang Zai's command was divided into two parts, one cavalry and one infantry, and although there was the sound of horses marching, Cao Cao could still hear that these thousands of people were walking at almost identical steps, as if one person was walking.

From the flamboyant camp to another camp, a few miles in between, he didn't hear the slightest scattering of the troop around him, nor did he hear a trace of noise.

When he arrived at the camp, Cao Cao suppressed the surprise in his heart. said to Zhang Zai: "General Zhang will camp here, next to it is the camp of Sun Zhan, the Taishou Gong of Beiping, the general, if you have nothing to do, you might as well move around more." ”

"Please also ask Brother Meng De to introduce you." Zhang Zai looked at the sergeant who was camping, it was fine anyway, it would be better to contact General Baima first.

"Please." There was nothing to do in Cao Cao's camp, and since Zhang Zai was interested, it didn't hurt to accompany him on a journey.

Zhang Zai waved his hand, and Xue Rengui behind him received the order and began to arrange camping.

The two of them walked to the camp gate, and happened to meet Gongsun Zhan, who was leading people out, and saw Cao Cao coming with a person, and he had never seen it before, so he asked curiously: "Brother Meng De, who is this person?" ”

"Brother Bo Jue, this is General Du Liao, and Zhang Zai, the Taishou of Yanmen, is also camped nearby." Then he introduced to Zhang Zai: "This is Sun Zhan, the Taishou Gonggong of Youbeiping, and his white horse Yicong is quite elite. ”

When they arrived at the camp, the two introduced each other, they were both border guards, and they were famous for their military force, and their attitude towards foreign races was also tough, so they were naturally easy to have a good impression.

Unconsciously, the two chatted for nearly half an hour, until Cao Cao interrupted: "Two, it's getting late, Cao has already prepared a banquet to wash the dust for Zide, it is estimated that they have arrived, and we should also leave to go." Cao Cao looked at the two of them who were still unsatisfied, and he couldn't cry or laugh in his heart.

"Exactly, exactly." Gongsun Chan patted his head.

So the three of them went out of the camp together and went to the handsome tent prepared by Cao Cao.

At this time, several other princes were already waiting inside, and when they saw the arrival of the three people, they also got up to greet each other.

The nineteen princes of the alliance, except for Ma Teng, who only sent his cronies, the rest came in person, and Cao Cao introduced them to Zhang Zai one by one.

greeted everyone, and the attitude of these people was also seen by Zhang Zai.

Although there are many princes who look down on Zhang Zai's background, in their eyes, this Zhang Zai only relied on the eunuch party to get such a high position, but they also take into account the overall situation, and the alliance is in front of them, in order not to hurt the peace, they also nodded politely to Zhang Zai.

But not everyone is destined to be so open-minded.

When Nanyang Taishou Yuan Shu was introduced, this Yuan Shu was quite disdainful of Zhang Zai, and he didn't look at Zhang Zai head-on, but just squinted his eyes and snorted softly.

It's really like you're a character yourself! Zhang Zai was not good-tempered either, and seeing that Yuan Shu was so rude, he just nodded lightly and looked at the others at the same time.

Ignored by Zhang Zai, Yuan Shu exploded in anger and stared at Zhang Zai angrily, the fierceness in his eyes seemed to tear him to pieces.

Growing up in a look of envy and awe, he also developed his character of empty eyes, he thinks that all people should be afraid of Yuan, and when they hear about his family background, they should go to him.

Among the princes, the only ones who had a better attitude towards themselves were Yuan Shao and Sun Jian, Jizhou Assassin Shi Han Fu, and Chen Liutai Shou Zhang Miao.

Yuan Shao is the son of the Yuan family, and he is not as good as Yuan Shu in his background, so he has to make a fuss in other aspects, so he is quite proficient in the set of corporal Lixian.

As a military general, Sun Jian only has military exploits in his eyes, and he heard that Zhang Zai is on the northern border, and he can't recover after a few years of fighting, so he looks at Zhang Zai differently.

As for Zhang Miao and Han Fu, they are just pure good people.

A wine banquet did not disperse until everyone was happy.
