Because Dongzhuo of Xiliang was secretly summoned into Beijing by the generals He Jin and Yuan Shao, he abolished the Son of Heaven, killed the Queen Mother, and occupied the dragon bed, which stirred up the complaints of the government and the opposition, and also caused the princes of the world to raise troops one after another and come to the capital Qinwang.

When Cao Cao issued an edict, Yuan Shao accepted it, and in order to spread the world, he invited a total of eighteen princes to discuss Dong.

The eighteen princes were: Later General Nanyang Taishou Yuan Shu, Jizhou Mu Han Fu, Yuzhou Thorn Shi Kong Ling, Yanzhou Thorn Shi Liu Dai, Hanoi County Taishou Wang Kuang, Chen Liutai Shou Zhang Miao, Dongjun Taishou Qiao Mao, Shanyang Taishou Yuan Yi, Jibei Xiang Bao Xin, Beihai Taishou Kong Rong, Guangling Taishou Zhang Chao, Beiping Taishou Gongsun Zhan, Shangdang Taishou Zhang Yang, Wucheng Hou Changsha Taishou Sun Jian, Qixiang Hou Bohai Taishou Yuan Shao, Xiaoqi Captain Cao Cao, Xiliang Taishou Ma Teng, Xuzhou Thorn Shi Taoqian.

Most of the princes of each department had tens of thousands of mercenaries, and many small states and counties under them responded one after another, such as Liu Bei, although there were less than 500 soldiers, they also participated.

Now, the princes of the Eighteenth Road will stay in Chen.

In the middle of the camp.

The princes of the Eighteenth Road are in the position.

Cao Cao glanced at the people in the banquet, opened his mouth at this moment, and said: "Everyone, this time we are a total of eighteen road troops, but we must not be dispatched without a commander, otherwise it is easy to be broken one by one, and an alliance leader should be elected by the princes to lead the army of more than 300,000 people." ”

Although he didn't believe that Li Xiaodao said that the alliance would inevitably fail, he couldn't help but feel a little at the moment, so he went straight to the point, but he thought that if he was led by an alliance leader, he would not be scattered in the army, and he could also twist his strength.

At this time, after all, he is still the person who really wants to help the society, not the peerless hero in the future.

Hearing this, the princes of the Eighteen Roads during the banquet were moved.

A black-faced and bearded man sitting at the end of the banquet pushed one of the people next to him and said secretly: "Our eldest brother is the queen of King Jing of Zhongshan, the clan of the Han family, and the leader of this alliance ......."

Liu Bei hurriedly held down Zhang Fei and said in a low voice: "The third brother is talking nonsense. ”

Zhang Fei snorted in a muffled voice and stopped talking, he also knew that his three brothers were outnumbered and had few generals, and this time he was just a mouthful.

Let's say that a short man in a luxurious robe during the banquet heard the words at this moment, and secretly thought: "My Yuan family is the fourth and third princes, and my Yuan Shu is leading the most troops this time, so how can it be my turn to sit in the position of the leader of the alliance." ”

That Sun Jian laughed loudly and said: "In my opinion, Cao Mengde is the person who passed the edict this time, so don't shirk it, you can sit on the position of the leader of the alliance, and we don't have any opinions." ”

Who knows, as soon as Sun Jian's words came out, not to mention that Yuan Shu's face was dark, even many other princes were also gloomy.

What does it mean to "we don't have any opinions", what qualifications do you Sun Wentai have to make decisions for us.

Immediately, there was Beihai Taishou Kong Rong shook his head and said: "Wentai's words are wrong, the leader of the alliance should be qualified by a person with sufficient prestige and virtue to be convincing." ”

Kong Rong is the descendant of the Confucian sage, that is, the protagonist of "Kong Rong makes pears", the sage family pays the most attention to etiquette, and Cao Cao's grandfather is a eunuch in the palace, in his opinion, how can a eunuch come to sit as the leader of the alliance, and it will not be laughed at and generous by later generations when it is introduced into history.

When Cao Cao heard this, although his face remained unchanged, he snorted coldly in his heart, and at the same time vaguely felt that what Li Xuanji said was really true.

"Do you really want to be as Li Xuanji said, this time the princes want to return in vain?"

He thought to himself.

At this time, Cao Cao was not the peerless hero who coerced the Son of Heaven to order the princes decades later, if it was said that this time Dong You was sincere in order to help the Han family, I am afraid that only a small number of people such as Zhang Miao and Sun Jian were all trying to seek benefits because of this.

At this moment, Cao Cao, who was heavy in his heart, temporarily pressed down the mixed thoughts, and said to Sun Jian and everyone: "Wentai's words, I don't dare to accept it, and I also know that the leader of the alliance is not Cao Cao's ability. ”

As soon as these words came out, the princes at the banquet groaned one after another, but Yuan Shu shouted in his heart:

"Okay, you Cao Apu! I am the Yuan family clan, Yuan Benchu is a concubine, what qualifications do I have to serve as the leader of the alliance. ”

But at this time, after thinking about it, the princes echoed one after another, and Kong Rong first opened his mouth to second.

Secondly, Sun Jian also responded, and the number of princes agreed for a while exceeded half.

Yuan Shao was secretly happy in his heart, but he always had to work his face, so he resigned first.

However, during the banquet, everyone pleaded again and again, and said, "It must be Yuan Benyi", and Yuan Shao agreed.

And Yuan Shu was almost angry, even if he wasn't the leader of the alliance, it wouldn't be Yuan Shao's turn, especially the eldest brother he looked down on since he was a child, the son of a concubine, who actually rode on his head this time, but, even if he was unwilling, this result was jointly elected by the princes, and he had to secretly hold a grudge and couldn't change anything.

In the end, Yuan Shao served as the leader of the alliance, and also served as the governor of Yuan Shu, the army of grain and grass, drafted the text of the thief, after the sacrifice to the sky, Sun Jian volunteered to serve as the vanguard, led the army to kill 10,000 to Luoyang, and the rest of the princes divided the road, and then left.

But although the Jiangdong Tiger was incomparably mighty, it was blocked under the Tiger Prison and defeated by a general named Huaxiong.

The princes came to the front of the battle to watch the battle, but saw that Hua Xiong was holding a moon-watching sword, and none of the generals who went into battle could last a few breaths, so they were cut off from their horses.

The princes were shocked.

Yuan Shao was especially frightened, and hurriedly asked everyone: "Which one has a good general under the account, but he can defeat this Huaxiong." ”

Yuan Shu was overjoyed at the moment, but this time the opportunity for his performance came, so he said: "I have a good general under my command, named Yu She, who can kill that Huaxiong." ”

Who knows, Yu She's not enough tea kung fu to go out, so a small soldier came to report: "Yu She's less than one round of battle was cut off by Hua Xiong." ”

Yuan Shu was shocked and lost his voice: "My general, that Huaxiong is so powerful!" ”

At this time, Taishou Han Fu snorted coldly and said, "I have General Pan Feng, who can kill Huaxiong." ”

As soon as the words fell, a general with a big axe stepped across his horse, and who knew that he was killed again in less than three rounds against Shang Huaxiong.

This Han Fu's face is about to turn the color of pig liver.

Cao Cao hurriedly found Li Xiaodao at the end of the seat, and asked in a low voice: "This Huaxiong is so powerful, why didn't you include him in your name on the list of generals." ”

Li Xiaodao smiled indifferently and said: "If he is not recorded, he is naturally not qualified, and the allies were defeated by him, not because Huaxiong was too strong, but because the generals who went out just now were too weak." ”

Cao Cao was shocked and immediately asked, "Is this too weak?" My army is stopped by him? Who can beat this Huaxiong? ”

Li Xiaodao shook his head and smiled: "The princes are not without good generals and generals. ”

Cao Cao hurriedly asked, "Who is it?" ”

Li Xiaodao stretched out a hand and said, "These two people are the top ten candidates on the list of generals, one is named Guan Yu, and the other is named Zhang Fei. ”

Cao Cao muttered: "One Lu, two Zhao, three Dianwei, four passes, five horses and six Zhang Fei, are the fourth and sixth people on your martial arts list." ”

After speaking, Cao Cao's eyes quickly scanned the banquet, wanting to find the two people.
