All the princes had already arranged their own affairs, and the meeting ceremony of the Dong Alliance finally officially began half a month after the edict was issued.

Bai Qi ordered people to pile up an earthen platform more than two meters high in front of the military camp and use it as an alliance of princes.

Although winter was about to enter at noon on this day, the sun was still hanging high in the sky, staring fiercely at the eighteen people who had the most power in the world.

"Today, we gather here, adhering to the order of the first emperor, crusading against the traitor Dong Zhuo who defied the imperial power, attacking Luoyang to rescue the orphans of the first emperor, and re-establishing the 10,000-year-old emperor of the Han Dynasty.

Bai Qi stood on the main seat of the high platform, facing the princes on both sides, and said what he thought was the most exciting, but looking at the expressions of the princes under the stage, Bai Qi knew that his goal had been achieved.

If you talk to these princes about saving the people of Li, maybe they don't have any interest at all, but if you tell them that they can be promoted, and they can even keep their names for eternity, then they will be full of energy.

And for these princes, Bai Qi did not dare to underestimate him, the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty was an era of heroes, and the heroic figures who appeared at this time could even be compared to the scene of a hundred schools of thought contending during the Warring States Period.

If nothing else, just talk about these eighteen princes, although there is no special feeling when they are brought together, but if they are placed alone in any troubled period, Bai Qi believes that each of them can become the existence of one side of the separatism.

"Yes, this alliance must be concluded, but if there is no one who gives orders, won't our 400,000 troops be chaotic?"

"Yes, yes, we must choose an alliance leader and give orders in a unified manner, so that we can fight and conquer Luoyang"

Hearing this familiar voice, how could Bai Qi not recognize it, wasn't this Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu's brothers who had a holiday with him? Of course, this alliance leader is to be chosen, but this must be said step by step.

This Bai Qi has just finished saying that he wants to establish an alliance, and you have to choose the leader of the alliance, don't you mean to save Bai Qi's face, and listen to your tone, as if the position of the alliance leader is already yours.

In the face of such an embarrassing situation, all the remaining princes did not make a sound, of course, this is not because they can't smell the smell of gunpowder, these princes are like human spirits, and they can't see anything.

It's just that this matter has nothing to do with them at all, and they obviously see that this Yuan Shao brother has a personal grudge with Bai Qi, so they all look like they are sitting on the mountain and watching the tiger fight.

As for this other point, it is that from the beginning, they did not have the luxury of being the leader of this alliance, and they were able to sit in the position of the smallest lord of a city, and they still have this self-knowledge.

Speaking of troops, the Yuan brothers can be regarded as a family, adding up to 80,000 people, and they are already the most powerful among the princes, except for Bai Qi.

Therefore, Yuan Shao is naturally a strong contender for the alliance leader, as for the princes of Ma Teng and Sun Jian, since they are all from the remote areas of the Han Dynasty, the other princes will naturally not support them.

"Grass" faced with such a situation, Bai Qi did not have any expression, but Cao Cao, who was behind Bai Qi, was a little unhappy, of course, this mood was not all because of Bai Qi.

In fact, Cao Cao and Yuan Shao did not deal with each other in the first place, and it can be seen from the real Eighteenth Route Princes Alliance in history that it was Cao Cao's holy decree at that time, but in the end Yuan Shao took the main position, and if there is nothing in it, fools will not believe it.

There is also the fact that after Yuan Shao's strength grew, the first target he chose to clean up was Cao Cao, and the reason for this was that Yuan Shao saw that Cao Cao was not an idle person, and it should be that the two of them couldn't get used to each other.

In the past, Cao Cao swallowed his anger everywhere because of his lack of strength, and even the later battle of Guandu was not what he wanted to fight.

But now it's different, his own strength is several times beyond all the princes, and now Cao Cao is not afraid of Yuan Shao, if you dare to yell at me, I will dare to get you, anyway, it will be destroyed, it's just a matter of time.

Besides, Cao Cao is not a good temper, how can he endure it when he encounters such a faceless person, but just as he was about to attack, he was stopped by Bai Qi with a smile on his face.

Looking at Bai Qi's smiling face, Cao Cao couldn't help but shrink his neck, having known Bai Qi for so long, Cao Cao knew that whenever Bai Qi smiled like this, someone must be unlucky.

"Brother Yuan is right, but I don't know how to choose the position of the leader of this alliance" Bai Qi took two steps forward with a harmless face, so that he could see Brother Yuan's expression more clearly.

After hearing Bai Qi's words, Yuan Shu, who had no brains, immediately said it, Yuan Shao, who was standing next to him, but he hurriedly stopped it, but he didn't stop it, "Of course, whoever is strong in this princes' alliance will be the leader of this alliance."

As soon as Yuan Shu's words came out, Bai Qi didn't react at all, Yuan Shao hated iron and slapped his forehead with his hand.

Just when all the princes were watching Bai Qi's reaction, Bai Qi bowed to Yuan Shu in front of everyone, and then said with a smile, "Hahaha, it turns out that Brother Yuan takes care of me so much Bai Qi, I haven't spoken yet, you are going to choose me as the leader of the alliance, thank you so much"

"Who chose you to be the leader of the alliance, our brother's soldiers and horses combined, but there are as many as 80,000 soldiers and horses, you are just" Speaking of this, Yuan Shu remembered that it was not them who had the most soldiers and horses here, but Bai Qi, who was standing opposite him, had 100,000 male soldiers.

Yuan Shu, who realized this, hurriedly changed his style of speech, "Of course, the number of troops cannot determine the strength of combat effectiveness, but the strength of force can determine the position of the alliance leader."

Bai Qi was stunned when he heard this, and at this time, Bai Qi really doubted whether Yuan Shu was really stupid or fake, and looked at Yuan Shu with strange eyes.

"Alas" Yuan Shao next to Yuan Shu couldn't stand it anymore, covered his eyes with his hands, and turned away from looking here.

"Hahaha" After a while, Bai Qi and Cao Cao laughed together, competing with Bai Qi in force, you are really looking for death, just talk about a few things about Bai Qi in Luoyang, look at Lu Bu, who is known as the world's number one general, dare to fight him alone.

"Contested force? Okay, is it the two of you who beat me or the two of you?"

"This" After Yuan Shu heard Bai Qi's words, he suddenly felt a little strange, but what made him even more strange was that the other princes around him also looked at him like fools, "Big brother, this is"

Hearing Yuan Shu's inquiry, Yuan Shao did not speak. Instead, he gave him a look, which means that you look in the direction of Luoyang.

"Hey" After Yuan Shao reminded him of this, Yuan Shu remembered that Bai Qi had recently broken into fame, the most terrifying rumor during this time, wasn't he what Bai Ri Shura said.

"We are all people with status, don't we lose our demeanor by dancing knives and guns, we compare our identity, our Yuan brothers are the fourth and third dukes, and what are you?" said this, Yuan Shu seemed to have confidence, and his words became more and more arrogant.

After saying "snap", Yuan Shu didn't wait for Bai Qi to give in, but a hot pain came from the right side of his face, this is not Bai Qi's beating, who else could it be.

"Ah, you dare to hit me in vain, you are not afraid"

"Shut up for me," Bai Qi shouted to Yuan Shu with a sneer.

"What are you when I am white, ah, do you think that my 100,000 army is muddy, and I will not kill people, I think that my first emperor was the champion of the Han Dynasty, the general of the Western Expedition, and I was humiliated by such a villain as you, and I endured it several times, you said that I promised to compete with the military, and I promised to compete with the force, but I am not a good-tempered person, I am allowed to do it again and again, but I will never tolerate it again and again."

Saying that, Bai Qi looked at Yuan Shu with a mocking face, "Now the entire Han Dynasty is in danger, but you are still complacent about the name of a fourth world and three dukes, since Dong Zhuo can force the first emperor to death, I don't mind that after destroying the Yuan family first, after leading troops to avenge the first emperor, even if the whole army is wiped out, do you dare to move?" ”
