At this point, it was finally time for the princes to meet, and Qiao Mao, the Taishou of Dongjun, had cattle and horses slaughtered in advance, and invited all the princes of the Eighteen Roads to discuss the strategy of marching into the army.

Originally, the traceable * Dragon Soul also had to come with Yang Rui as the right captain, but he was stopped at the door of the camp tent, and was told that only the princes themselves could enter the big tent, and the others would all avoid it!

This is in line with Yang Rui's original intention, if the dragon soul is present, some of the relationship between Yang Rui and the princes is likely to be known, and at this time, Yang Rui's identity as the state pastor of Qingzhou has not yet been known by the player group, and Yang Rui also wants to keep it for the time being.

"Heroes, please bow down to Qiao Mao!"

After all the people arrived and sat down, Qiao Mao stood up first.

"Yuan Wei, why is this?"

"Yuan Wei can't be like this"

“”

Seeing that Qiao Mao, who was the first to advocate the volunteers, wanted to make a big salute, the other princes present all stood up one after another to dissuade him, but it was too late.

"That's how it should be! Think that Dong Zhuo is cruel and cruel, and there are many crimes! Today, the princes of all parties gathered volunteers, vowing to sweep away China, kill the murderers, clear the society, and vent public anger together, in order to support the royal family and save the people. Qiao Mao was very moved by this, and thanked you in advance."

Everyone's actions failed to stop Qiao Mao, and after that, Qiao Mao agitated a few words with great righteousness, and the princes present were also shocked, and they all reprimanded Dong Zhuo for not being there.

"Today, in the spirit of righteousness, the leader of the alliance will be established, and the people will listen to and restrain them. Then march into the army"

The princes scolded Dong Zhuo completely. Hanoi Taishou Wang Kuang Ti yì said. Finally, the point of discussion has arrived. It's time to elect the Alliance Leader!

"Bohai Taishou Yuan Benchu Fourth and Third Dukes, many old officials, descendants of the Han Dynasty, can be the leader of the alliance." Shanyang Taishou Yuan Yi first built the yì road.

Originally, after Yang Rui reached a cooperation with the retrospective * Dragon Soul and others, he successively came to the camp of Taishan County Taishou Ding Yuan, Jibei Xiang Bao Xin and Dongjun Taishou Qiao Mao, and at the same time expressed his willingness to take on the position of the leader of the Dong League, among which Ding Yuan and Bao Xin expressed their support, and Qiao Mao also held a tacit attitude.

Ding Yuan once confessed to Yang Rui. Some time ago, not long after he and Yang Rui withdrew from the Sili Territory to Taishan to serve as Taishou, the news of Lu Bu's joining Dong Zhuo had already been reported, and Ding Yuan knew that if Yang Rui didn't try his best to pull him away, it was likely to be in great danger! Therefore, Ding Yuan fully supported Yang Rui.

And Bao Xin, the prime minister of Jibei, originally had an old relationship with Yang Rui, and they were both from Shandong, and his subordinate Jiang Ban was also familiar with Yang Rui, so the relationship between the two parties was relatively harmonious. In fact, on another level, Bao Xin once persuaded Yuan Shao to take advantage of Dong Zhuo's unstable foothold to attack him, but was rejected by the other party, and Bao Xin was quite dissatisfied with this matter. It is also reflected in ordinary speeches; Moreover, Yang Rui's current military strength is strong, so Bao Xin is also willing to support Yang Rui.

Yang Rui after visiting these three people. He even went to the tent of Liu Dai, the assassin of Yanzhou, to talk. For this long-known Yanzhou governor who has never met before, Yang Rui will certainly not talk to each other as bluntly as he did with the first three, he came to see Liu Dai just to enhance the relationship.

Yang Rui originally wanted to visit Cao Cao's tent, and the two had a lot of contact before, but Cao Cao's own strength was also very strong, and he couldn't say that he also coveted the alliance leader, and his relationship with Yuan Shao was close to his own, so Yang Rui never made the trip in the end.

As for the other princes, they either had a close relationship with Yuan Shao, or they also had the hope of becoming the leader of the alliance, so Yang Rui did not go to the relationship again.

Originally, Yang Rui's people and horses had the highest military strength, and if a few people pushed him, there might not be no hope of snatching the alliance leader, but he never thought that at this time, the few people Yang Rui had made an appointment with him had not yet spoken, and Shanyang Taishou Yuan Yu had already opened his mouth to recommend Yuan Shao!

The rest of the princes, including Yang Rui, actually didn't know that Yuan Shao had long been determined to win the position of the leader of the alliance, and Yuan Shao had previously used his hands and feet in terms of initial military strength, borrowing some of the soldiers and horses that belonged to Yuan Rui to his command, so as to occupy the advantage in the ranking at the beginning. Yuan Yi is Yuan Shao's cousin, and he is naturally happy to see Yuan Shao's design come to fruition, and he actively cooperates with Yuan Shao.

In addition, Yuan Shao made an appointment with Wang Kuang, Yuan Yi and others in advance, and pushed himself to be elected as the leader of the alliance when they gathered, and then Yuan Shao accepted it half-pushed, and any other princes from all walks of life would not say anything! Of course, these are all background settings

"Although Shao has some experience in leading troops, but the command of the eighteenth route princes coalition army is a serious matter, you might as well think carefully first, and then make a conclusion" Yuan Shao really modestly and conceded according to the original plan.

Yuan Shu, who was sitting on the other side, heard what Yuan Shao said, and couldn't help but pouted and smiled, he and Yuan Shao had a gap, at this time, he just laughed at Yuan Shao and was still a little self-aware, in Yuan Shu's opinion, the reputation of the fourth and third princes had to be used by his descendant, how could Yuan Shao afford it!

Yuan Shao is prepared for the position of the leader of the alliance, in fact, Yuan Shu is also prepared, he has already contacted Yuzhou Assassin Shi Kong Ling and Jizhou Assassin Han Fu in advance to support him, and now Yuan Shao is pushing, it is just a good time.

"Kong Ling also came to nominate one person, Yuan Highway is a great talent in the world, and he is also the fourth and third duke of the Yuan family, so he can take on the responsibility of the leader of the alliance!" At this time, I saw Yuzhou Thorn Shi Kong Ling taking the opportunity to speak out.

Wenjie also agreed with Gongxu's example, "followed by Jizhou Thorn History, Han Fu also said.

With these two people coming forward to recommend themselves, Yuan Shu's smile was even stronger at this time, and then looking at the suppressed look on Yuan Shao's face, Yuan Shu's heart was so happy that he almost laughed out loud.

At this time, Yuan Shao was also forcibly suppressing his feelings, he originally thought that after Yuan Yi mentioned yì, coupled with the help of Wang Kuang and others, the position of the leader of the alliance would be decided immediately, but he didn't want Yuan Shu to come out halfway!

Since Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu were both from the Yuan family, the election of the leader of the alliance looked a bit like the dispute between the Yuan family's concubines, so the other princes did not immediately intervene in the matter, even if Yuan Shao communicated in advance, Wang Kuang, the Taishou of Hanoi County, Zhang Yang and several others did not speak immediately.

"Since you all have your favorite alliance leader, Ding Yuan will also recommend one."

Neither of the Yuan clan continued to speak, but Ding Yuan stood up and wanted to recommend the alliance leader again. And his next remarks made Er Yuan more and more frightened the more he listened.

"Ding Yuan thought that Qingzhou Mu and Zuo Lieutenant Lieyang could take the position of the leader of the princes' alliance!

You've all heard of it. Lieyang Prefecture has been pastor since the Yellow Turban Uprising. After countless battles, the Yellow Turban Rebellion established a meritorious value of more than 500 yuan, first with the Yellow Turban of Pingyanzhou, and then with the Yellow Turban of Dingqingzhou, and the achievements of the Yellow Turban of Dingqingzhou.

The rebellion of the ten permanent servants was killed in the palace, and Lieyang supported the society as a lieutenant, first discovered the location of the official family and always defended it until the Son of Heaven returned to the palace safely! During this period, General Lieyang killed Dong Zhuo's old thief and arrogant generals. Several times he drank back the old thief and got close for no reason, and scolded the old thief all the way to the distance between the old thief and the Son of Heaven, which protected the health of the Son of Heaven. Qiao Mao was too present to be present in this matter, and she could testify!

Even after entering the Imperial City, Captain Lieyang was also actively planning, contacting Ding Yuan and Qiao Mao Taishou, and when everyone was far away from Luoyang, he still fought with Dong Thief for a few days before retreating, which played a great deterrent, dare to ask who of you can reach?

Not to mention that Lieyang is the shepherd of a state. Those of you who are incapable of matching it, and the strength of the army alone is beyond the reach of others. I don't know if it's yes or no? Therefore, I hope that you will consider it carefully and elect the Lieyang Prefecture Pastor as the leader of the alliance to benefit the great cause of Dong! ”

Ding Yuan's words, not only Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu were dumbfounded, but even Yang Rui himself felt a little ashamed, he was not mentally prepared at all for Ding Yuan to say such a thing, this is a multi-iron relationship to make such a gesture, I am afraid that such a bad behavior will offend all the princes here!

While Yang Rui was embarrassed, he couldn't help but sigh secretly in his heart, it was really not in vain to save Ding Yuan at the beginning, but now it seems to be very worthwhile.

In fact, Yang Rui didn't know that Ding Yuan had already known his situation when he was in Luoyang at this time, and this remark was to repay Yang Rui, and although there were some exaggerations in the words, most of them were indeed Ding Yuan's true thoughts

"Bao Xin is ashamed, loyal to the trend, righteous to the righteous, the Lieyang Prefecture pastor has done all kinds of things, and he is indeed qualified for the position of the leader of the alliance!" At this time, Bao Xin also said in a timely manner, although it was simple, it added a lot of points to Yang Rui.

However, no one said anything after Bao Xin, and the whole scene fell into a surprising silence, I am afraid that no one would have thought that the gathering of princes in the parliament was the current situation! Including Yang Rui is the same!

After the silence lasted for a while, Dongjun Taishou Qiao Mao had to come forward.

"All of you are recommended by the alliance leader, and even those here are immortal talents, and they are all capable of resisting the important task of opposing Dong Daqi!

However, we only need one alliance leader, so Qiao Mao asks you to focus on the overall situation, no matter who is ultimately elected as the alliance leader, everyone else must maintain the authority of the alliance leader and obey the orders of the alliance leader!

If we all inscribe the people we want to elect on the paper, fold them and hand them over to Qiao Mao to count, and in the end, who gets the most self-control, who will take on the position of the leader of the alliance, what do you think? ”

After Qiao Mao's reconciliation, all the princes present felt that his words were reasonable, and they acted in accordance with his law. Qiao Mao sent a group of maids to put pen and ink on the princes, and when they finished writing, they folded it, and these maids collected the paper written by the princes and handed it to Qiao Mao.

The method that Qiao Mao thought of was still good, it was equivalent to a secret ballot, and there was no way to know who was elected as the leader of the alliance, so they only needed to count the results.

It's a good idea, but in the end, something goes wrong! Qiao Mao's results were relatively smooth at first, but by the last few photos, his face was getting more and more gloomy, until all the "votes" were counted, and Qiao Mao had changed to a bitter gourd face.

"How is this good?"

Everyone quickly knew the reason for Qiao Mao's embarrassment, it turned out that according to the results of Qiao Mao's final statistics, there were five people who supported Yuan Shao, five people who supported Yang Rui, four people who supported Yuan Shu, and four people who simply left blank or drew circles!

"Hahahaha! Haha"

Qiao Mao was puzzled, when he heard the military captain Cao Cao suddenly laugh, after everyone's eyes were focused, Cao Cao still laughed, regardless of everyone's reactions.

"Why is Meng De laughing?!"

"But what's wrong with Mengde?"

“”

Cao Cao laughed for a long time, and only after everyone opened their mouths to inquire did he gradually stop laughing, and then he still said with some laughter, "I laugh at you for being unwise, doing big things like child's play, and I haven't dealt with that Dong thief, it's already infighting, so a little thing can't be solved, and what kind of thing to talk about begging thieves and the like, according to my opinion, everyone might as well disperse, find a remote place, marry a two-room village aunt and concubine, and just live a lifetime!" Hahahaha"

"Mengde!"

Qiao Mao shouted Cao Cao's name, already a little annoyed, but then threw the problem to Cao Cao, "We are unwise, Meng De is talented, it is better for Meng De to say a solution."

Hearing Qiao Mao say this, Cao Cao really stopped laughing, his eyes rolled wildly, he got up and walked straight to Yang Rui's seat, and after whispering to Yang Rui for a while, he walked to Yuan Shao's location again, and communicated with the latter in a low voice.

After only a few moments, Cao Cao turned to face the princes, looking confident.

"Since the heroes of all roads are full of talents, why don't we set up an alliance leader, and then set up a league leader to assist, and Yuan Highway and Lieyang have reached a consensus that the highway will lead the alliance leader, and Lieyang will supervise and assist the deputy alliance leader, what do you think?"

Yang Rui naturally knew that Cao Cao was a little biased towards Yuan Shao's side, but the things Cao Cao mentioned in his ear were very tempting to Yang Rui, so Yang Rui should respond to it after a little measurement (to be continued......
