Hearing Guan Hai's name, Dian Wei was stunned for a moment, and then praised loudly: "Young master, good idea, that Zhang Bao was stabbed by Guan Hai, and Guan Hai was already obedient, but he had no merit in this battle, in order to keep his surname and future, he would naturally take strict care of Zhang Bao, let him look at Zhang Bao, it was absolutely foolproof!" ”

Li Qin smiled: "That's right! With that, he watched the Fujiao Army clean up the battlefield.

The Yellow Turban Army has completely collapsed, even if Zhang Jiao does not die, the Yellow Turban Army will not be able to fight, but it is easy to defeat them, but it is not easy to clean up the mess. Not to mention anything else, it is the food of hundreds of thousands of yellow turbans, which is a big problem, and if one is not handled well, the war that has just been quelled will have to burn again!

After a few days, Li Qin and Jia Xu did their best to settle the lives of the Yellow Turbans, and the big problem of just eating almost had to be supported by several nearby states, but fortunately, Li Qin is now absolutely coercing the Son of Heaven to order the princes, what does he mean, as long as it is said that it is the will of the little emperor, it can be carried out.

The officials of the nearby states and counties originally held a wait-and-see attitude, of course, they were not Li Qin and Zhang Jiao who were waiting and seeing, Zhang Jiao was just a thief, and no official would think that Zhang Jiao could win, and he would not make any wait-and-see posture, they were watching Li Qin and Yuancheng, at this time Yuan Shao and Cao Ying had become the climate, and many princes had made it clear that they were willing to support the crown prince Liu Wei to ascend the throne, but because the time was too tight, they had not yet led the troops to arrive!

However, although Zhang Jiao was not enough to see, he was broken by Li Qin with a drum and suppressed it, which is also scary enough, at least it shows that Li Qin far surpasses Huangfu Song in terms of fighting. Officials in nearby states and counties all think that Huangfu Song is a boss who can't get it, and now Li Qin has proved that he is even more powerful than Huangfu Song with his results, and the officials naturally don't dare to wait and see anymore.

In terms of righteousness, although Yuancheng has an orthodox prince as the banner, who cares about righteousness these days! What is righteousness, whoever has a big fist will have righteousness, get out of the side with a small fist and go coolly, a small fist is no righteousness, this is called righteousness!

Therefore, Li Qin issued an order in the name of the little emperor, and the states and counties that were too far away would not be loyal "immediately" and came to scold him, but the officials of the nearby states and counties were all gathered giant deer, firstly, to reward the victorious army, and secondly, to have a good relationship with Li Qin, lest Li Qin think that they had the idea of defecting to Yuancheng, and sent troops in a rage, try to ask who can resist!

Li Qin originally thought that as long as it took half a month, he would be able to place the Yellow Turbans, but in fact, there were many matters, even if he had three heads and six arms, half a month's time was not enough, and things dragged on and on, for nearly two months, which was a slight end, but during this time, his affairs were almost handled, but the anger on Yuancheng's side was also eased, and the affairs of Yuan Shao and Cao Ying were also dealt with almost well!

Yuancheng, at this time has gathered nearly 100,000 troops, although the majority of recruits, but not completely without veterans, the princes from other places are all with soldiers and horses, less also bring two or three thousand, anyway, there is no empty-handed, the main force is still Yuan Shao's, Cao Ying's second, Gongsun Zhan's third.

Yuan Shao is the chief general of Yuancheng, he came the earliest, and he already has troops, so the number of soldiers is the largest, counting the recruits, there are about 30,000 people, but although the number is the largest, the combat effectiveness is the weakest, the recruits can not be compared with the veterans, and the veterans in his army are mainly Yulin Army, Yulin Army is Luoyang people, and now Luoyang is returned to Li Qin, these Yulin Army have the intention of returning to their hometown, but if Li Qin uses their family as a threat, then they must surrender the fastest!

The second is Cao Ying's troops, when the second, there are almost 20,000 people, his strength is second only to Yuan Shao, mainly because the ministers who support him are the most, the children recruited by the clan, plus the original township farmers and strong men in the fiefdoms of the ministers, put together, the number is quite a lot, but his army is not very good unified command, the number is more because of the relationship between the ministers, but because there are more ministers, there are more mountains, and the ingredients are complicated, so they don't listen to the command much, to talk about combat effectiveness, there is no problem with small-scale battles, But if the large army fights in unison, the weakness will be immediately apparent.

The third in strength is Gongsun Zhan, his soldiers are all cavalry, and now the number has reached 5,000 people, although it is much less than Yuan Shao and Cao Ying, but among the armies, the combat effectiveness ranks first, and his white horse Yicong has both actual combat experience and obeys his orders, so it is not surprising that his army is the strongest.

As for the other armies, although there are a lot of them, they are not very good, if you want to say that they are more outstanding, Lu Bu is one of them. If you want to talk about the changes in Luoyang, who takes the biggest advantage is undoubtedly Lu Bu! He recruited a group of county soldiers and small officials from Luoyang, although after escaping from Luoyang, most of them were scattered, and all the miscellaneous soldiers followed him for profit.

However, Lu Bu does have some ability in pulling Zhuang Ding, after escaping from Luoyang, he went all the way east, and in the countryside along the way, he actually pulled a lot of strong men, although the strong men did not follow voluntarily, but how many of them were voluntary these years? Lu Bu now has more than 3,000 people, nearly 4,000.

He has nowhere to go, he always feels that the world is in chaos, the Han family is weak, everyone in the city has a share, and others can take it, why can't he? The more chaotic the better, he looked forward to more chaos, but the armament and grain and grass were not very good, so he simply ran to Yuancheng, self-proclaimed princes all the way, and ran to eat Yuan Shao and Cao Ying's grain and grass, Yuan Shao and Cao Ying knew that he was here to take advantage, but now is the time to employ people, and he can only be Lu Bu to fight for righteousness, he is a rare talent, and he also asked for an official for him in front of the Empress Dowager Dong, called the captain of the school, and now Lu Bu is also a person with official status, but he can call himself a general!

In addition to Yuan Shao, Cao Ying, Gongsun Zhan, and Lu Bu, the four main princes, there are other more than ten princes, such as Yuan Shu, he is Yuan Shao's brother, selfish, but there are still some skills, and there are some soldiers and horses in his hands, which can be regarded as a character, so-so can be called princes, and Gongsun Du, although this person has the same surname as Gongsun Zhan, but he is not really a relative, but since everyone protects the young master together, he reluctantly recognizes the brothers of the same clan.

In addition, Han Fu, Sun Ling, Cao Yin, Wang Rui, Yuan Yi, Sun Jian, Bao Xin, Tao Qian, Zhang Chao, Kong Rong, Liu Biao and others have either led troops to Yuancheng, or said that they want to come, in short, they have made their positions clear, stood in line, and are willing to support the crown prince to ascend the throne and resist Li Qin.

Yuan Shao and Cao Ying each made magical powers, contacted the princes everywhere, and there were many people who could promise happily, but they promised verbally, but they didn't write a reply, to put it bluntly, they didn't put the facts on paper and pen, and they didn't let Yuan Shao and Cao Ying get the handle, they were both two-faced and refused to stand in line, if Li Qin won, they will vote for Li Qin, anyway, there is no handle in the hands of Yuan Shao and Cao Ying, and when the time comes, they will turn their faces, nothing is terrible, if Yuan Shao and Cao Ying win, then those people will say, I supported the prince at the beginning, It's just that it's late, even if Yuan Shao and Cao Ying want to turn their faces, they don't dare, even if they defeat Li Qin, their strength will be greatly damaged, it's too late to appease the officials, how dare they turn their faces immediately, after winning Li Qin, Yuan Shao and Cao Ying still have to fight again, it is impossible to counterattack and count back within a few years, and find trouble for the officials, as for a few years later, I don't know what the situation will be, don't think so far!

Therefore, although there are many princes of the Han Dynasty, there are many powerful people from all sides, but they can really come, plus a few people in Yuancheng, counting and calculating, there are only seventeen roads, which is a singular number, and the war is the most auspicious, and the singular number is not very auspicious.

This said, Yuan Shao and Cao Ying entered the temporary palace together to see the Empress Dowager Dong and the crown prince Liu Wei, and wanted to talk about the princes' coming to help.

After seeing the ceremony, Cao Ying said: "The queen mother, the prince, the ministers and others have recently come to contact the heroes of the world, and they will definitely come, plus the ministers, there are a total of 17 roads, which are singular and unlucky, but the ministers have tried their best, due to the barrier of mountains and rivers, in recent months, I am afraid that there will be no new soldiers and horses to join, how should this be good?" Please also ask the Queen Mother and the Prince to show it! ”

Yuan Shao also said: "Queen Mother, the princes everywhere are mostly wait-and-see, if our army wins, presumably the number of people who join will increase, but I heard that Li Qin has eliminated the Yellow Turban Zhang Jiao, according to the current situation, I will come east and fight with the ministers, but our army is now insufficient, can you ask the Queen Mother to come forward, and then contact a few roads, or all the way, if you can make up the eighteen princes, it will become a good luck, and you will be able to break the Li thief!" ”

In ancient times, it was very particular about these, not only to talk about numbers, but also to talk about auspiciousness, when sending troops, but also to kill horses and cattle, blood for the alliance, and even when the oath was sworn to go out, what wind blows, whether there is wind and sand, will be considered advantageous and disadvantageous, if the wind is too strong, blow the flagpole off, then there is no need to send troops, morale will be greatly frustrated, so seventeen and eighteen roads, this kind of number is very critical, if it is not because the princes this kind of thing can not be made up, then they may be able to make one, even if the princes do not have a title, But there has to be a grade, and there have to be some soldiers, these are all things they can't get!

The old lady of the Empress Dowager Dong had no way, she said with a bitter face: "I am a woman's family, and I usually don't even come out of the palace, how can I recognize the princes!" ”

The crown prince Liu Wei in her arms suddenly said: "Grandma can canonize a prince, and it's good for grandchildren to see their uncle, and if he is an official, won't he become a prince?" ”

Empress Dowager Dong was stunned for a moment and said, "You said Liu Bei?" ”

Suddenly, she became happy, although the princes here in Yuancheng are not few, but none of her cronies are there, this Liu Bei is a good candidate, first, he has no foundation, he can only rely on himself, and secondly, he has the identity of the clan, maybe he can also control the army, then the safety of her and the prince can be guaranteed, and there is no need to be afraid of the princes relying on their merits to bully their old people and children!
