Chapter 40: The Princes Raise Their Troops

In order to subdue Chen Gong, Zhou Chen took great pains, first letting Wu Yong go in person, and then Dian Wei went with Wu Yong.

However, some things don't always go as planned. Soon, Zhou Chen received the news that this matter had gone wrong again!

However, it was said that Chen Gong had abandoned Cao Cao, and Wu Yong found him when he saw the opportunity, and directly explained his intention. To Zhou Chen's surprise, Chen Gong was very disgusted with his identity as a yellow scarf, and categorically refused without waiting for Wu Yong's persuasion.

Wu Yong, who persuaded to no avail, wanted Dian Wei to solve Chen Gong. After all, it is impossible for him to be his own, and it is better to kill him than to face him in the future.

However, Chen Gong is not a vegetarian, and cleverly borrowed the power of the government to make Wu Yong have to go.

"Alas!" After receiving the news, Zhou Chen sighed: "It's really providence!" ”

Then he said: "Forget it, Chen Gong is not the top talent, maybe he can get a better one after a while?" Zhou Chen thought so, and it could be regarded as a relief.

In the past few years, Zhou Chen has robbed a large number of powerful families. But these people have also learned well, and their property has been scattered all over the place, even if Zhou Chen gets the money, it is only a small part. This greatly affected Zhou Chen's income.

Most of the gold and silver grabbed were converted into card points, and Wu Yong and Pei Yuanqing also became permanent characters. It's just that there is not much gold and silver in the cottage now, and it is impossible to pray for blessings, after all, there are still tens of thousands of mouths waiting to eat under his subordinates, and he always has to leave some money to deal with emergencies.

The other side. Cao Cao fled to Yanzhou Jiwu City alone and raised the banner of recruiting troops to defeat Dong!

That's right! It's the county seat that was made a big fuss by Zhou Chendianwei before!

Zhou Chen's reputation here is not small, multiplication formulas, Chinese character pinyin has benefited many people a lot, so Zhou Chen's reputation has reached Cao Cao's ears

Cao Cao represents the Cao family and the Xiahou family, and with the help of the family, he quickly established his power, although the number is small, but they are all elite.

Then, Cao Cao took out an edict of the Han Emperor, and the content of the edict did not need to be said, which meant that everyone should go and overturn Dong Zhuo together!

As soon as the edict was issued, a large number of heroes came to join him, and Cao Cao's power grew rapidly, and the number of people exceeded 1,000 in an instant!

A long time has passed in the blink of an eye.

Dong Zhuo listened to the advice of Zhou Yu and Wu Qiong, and in order to improve his reputation and calm down the opposition, he re-appointed party members.

Xun Shuang, Chen Ji, and Han Rong were all forcibly appointed, and Dong Zhuo ordered Yuan Shao to be the Taishou of Bohai, Han Fu to be the pastor of Jizhou, Liu Dai to be the Assassin of Yanzhou, Kong Ling to be the Assassin of Yuzhou, Zhang Miao to be the Taishou of Chen Liu, and Zhang Zhi to be the Taishou of Nanyang, etc., in order to calm the opposition in the clan.

It's a pity that Dong Zhuo's understanding of the world is too shallow. The world, the interests of the supreme people! Dong Zhuo's huge power has threatened the survival of the clan, and they will never allow Dong Zhuo to continue to exist.

After the people were assigned to various places, they quickly began to recruit and train troops, and their power suddenly expanded.

Among them, the fastest growing force is Yuan Shao. Yuan Shao was well-known in Shilin, and the Yuan family was the fourth and third dukes, the head of the world's clans, and with the support of everyone, he soon established a strong force in Jizhou.

Judging from the support of various families for Yuan Shao to establish power, it is obvious that they are very dissatisfied with the current situation, and in order to eradicate Dong Zhuo, they supported Yuan Shao.

After that, Yuan Shu in Kyoto fled to Nanyang for fear of Dong Zhuo, and with the help of the Yuan family, he also established a strong army that was not weak.

At this time, Cao Cao, who was in Chenliu, scattered all his family wealth, and with the help of Xiaolian Weizi, he organized about 5,000 righteous troops to prepare for the crusade against Dong Zhuo.

Finally, in December 189 A.D.

Cao Cao took the lead in raising troops in his own country.

On the other hand, Qiao Mao falsely claimed to be the third prince of Jingshi, and sent letters to all prefectures and counties, stating Dong Zhuo's evil deeds and hoping that all localities would raise troops.

At this time, Han Fu, as the pastor of Jizhou, was very wary of Yuan Shao and sent people to guard Yuan Shao. After all, Yuan Shao's power has grown too fast, and it has already threatened him, the real Jizhou Mu, which is quite a dangerous thing.

When Han Fu received the letter, his heart wavered, he didn't know whether to help Yuan Shao or Dong Zhuo, he was persuaded by Liu Zihui, who was engaged in his governance, and was ready to see other people's actions before acting, Han Fu also had this idea, so he wrote to Yuan Shao to state Dong Zhuo's evil deeds and let Yuan Shao raise troops.

Compared with Cao Cao and others, Zhou Chen is an old force, with strong strength and sufficient soldiers. As a yellow turban, he did not receive a letter from Qiao Mao, but he was invited by Cao Cao.

In Cao Cao's view, Dong Zhuo's power is strong enough to rival the princes of the world, although his own people are not weak, but they are not as good as Zhou Chen, who has undergone long-term development! The war in previous years is still vivid, Zhou Chen took his own troops to break Qingzhou, attack Le'an, cut the land and seal the king, how could it be possible without some strength?

Although there were not many frontal battles when fighting with the coalition forces, Cao Cao estimated that Zhou Chen's forces had reached a rather astonishing level this time, and if he could have such strong reinforcements, he would definitely be able to save a lot of effort when he fought Dong Zhuo.

On the contrary, if Dong Zhuo gets Zhou Chen's help, this battle will be confusing, Dong Zhuo's 200,000 Xiliang Iron Cavalry, plus Zhou Chen's tens of thousands of Le'an elites, who can stop it?

For various reasons, Cao Cao sent a letter to Zhou Chen at the first time, inviting him to attack Dong.

Zhou Chen made a decision after discussing with Wu Yong for a while, and personally led 15,000 elites to crusade against Dong Zhuo, and Lin Chong, Thin Monkey, Zhang Hu, and Wu Yong stayed in Le'an County.

The first month of 190 A.D. Cao Cao took the lead in announcing to the world, inviting the world's heroes to jointly crusade against Dong Zhuo, and at the same time sent the Han Emperor's edict to all forces.

The leaders of the forces also knew that Cao Cao's edict was fake, but no one exposed it.

Dong Zhuo is the prime minister of the Han Dynasty, and a reason is needed to crusade against him! And the edict of the Han Emperor is a perfect excuse!

At the first time when Cao Cao raised his troops, Yuan Shao also sent troops to respond.

Seeing Yuan Shao sending troops, Yuan Shu, who has always been not to be outdone, also sent troops in Nanyang! Since then, Zhou Chen, who has been prepared for a long time, also announced to the world that Dong Zhuo will be punished with the heroes!

As the saying goes, the power of example is enormous. Under the example of Cao Cao, Yuan Shao and other forces, the entire Han Dynasty was in turmoil in an instant, and the princes of all parties frequently mobilized their troops and horses, and from time to time someone issued an edict in response to Cao Cao.

For them, it doesn't matter whether the Han Dynasty exists or not, what they value is fame! and the wealth accumulated by the Han Dynasty in Luoyang City for hundreds of years!

With such a large formation, Dong Zhuo naturally wouldn't be unaware. Xu is too proud, and he is not afraid of the situation of the masses, in his mind, as long as he wins this battle, the general trend of the world will fall to him, and the Han will die!
