Cao Cao's edict to discuss Dong was written by his son Cao Zhi, not only the handwriting is beautiful, but the rhetoric is also a must, scolding Dong Zhuo from birth and knowing death. Anyone who sees it thinks that Dong Zhuo is a traitor, a villain, and even a monster that everyone can get and be punished.

The first to respond to Cao Cao's call were the Yuan brothers, Bohai Taishou Yuan Shao and Nanyang Taishou Yuan Shu. The two men arrived at Xutian, and Cao Cao led them to meet Liu Wei first. In accordance with Li Hui's instructions, Liu Wei named Yuan Shao as the general of the chariot cavalry and Yuan Shu as the rear general. The two brothers were overjoyed and expressed their willingness to do their best to please Dong.

When Cao Cao led the Yuan brothers to Li Hui, the two thought that Li Hui was some big official, and Cao Cao said that he was just a captain of Liu Wei's guard. The arrogance in his body immediately rose. Especially Yuan Shao, when he heard Li Hui's words, that kind of resentment and anger could not be contained.

However, Li Hui smiled and teased the two: "The two generals have worked hard, and the villain Li Hui has offended a lot before, so I hope you can forgive me!" ”

Yuan Shao snorted coldly. Yuan Shu smiled: "You are Li Hui, the one who beat him?" Yuan Shu pointed at Yuan Shao and laughed.

Yuan Shao glared at Yuan Shu, turned around and left. Yuan Shu nodded to Li Hui: "You kid is really kind, but I warn you, that guy is a cautious eye, be careful that he secretly stumbles on you!" ”

Li Hui thanked him. Compared with Yuan Shao's arrogance, Yuan Shu is more compatible with Li Hui. Yuan Shaozhi interacted with high-ranking officials such as the big family, but Yuan Shu was different, he preferred the small people of the three religions and nine streams. Therefore, compared to Yuan Shao, Li Hui likes Yuan Shu a little more. Li Hui asked Yuan Shu to serve tea and chatted with Yuan Shu.

Li Hui asked, "I wonder how many men and horses the general brought this time?" ”

Yuan Shu put down the teacup and said with a smile: "Nanyang is vast and sparsely populated, coupled with the noise of the Yellow Turban thieves, some places are almost uninhabited for ten miles, this time I only brought 50,000 horses, and I don't know if it can be done?" ”

Li Hui said: "Fifty thousand people is already a lot, Cao Dacai is thousands of horses, it seems that you are seated in the position of the leader of this alliance, as long as I tell Your Majesty again, it is completely possible!" ”

Yuan Shu immediately put down the teacup: "That relationship is good, as long as there is a brother, as for whether it is successful or not, I thank my brother, hehe......"

It didn't take long for all parts of the country to start responding, Chen Liutaishou Zhang Miao sent 20,000 troops to help Cao Cao, Guangling Taishou Zhang Chao, Dongjun Taishou Qiaomao, Shanyang Taishou Yuan Yi, Hanoi Taishou Wang Kuang, as well as Yuzhou Thorn Shi Kong You, Yanzhou Thorn Shi Liu Dai, Jizhou Mu Hanfu and Jibei Prime Minister Bao Xin all came to help in the war, everyone came to Xu Tian without asking to send troops, first asked Liu Wei for the title of the fake emperor.

Of course, Li Hui did not disappoint them, and even Cao Cao, who was the least powerful, was named General Fenwei. After getting the title, the princes from all walks of life were full of joy, and the next thing was to discuss important matters.

Although Xu Tian was in charge of Cao Cao, it nominally belonged to Xuchang, and all grain, grass and ordnance depended on all the princes. With so many people adding up to two or three hundred thousand, there is no need to go into detail about the daily consumption, and where the grain and grass come from has become a thorny problem. Liu Wei, who was high above, quietly watched this group of so-called loyal ministers attack each other.

First of all, Yuan Shao, he said: "Bohai is far away from this road, although there is a little grain and grass, but the distant water can't save the thirst, it is still up to the nearby adults to think of a way!" ”

Zhang Miao immediately said: "I have 300,000 quintals of grain and grass, and I am willing to give 100,000 quintals to support the thief." ”

Now that Zhang Miao has spoken, the nearby princes can't shirk it, you give some, I give some, and the last statistic, although it is not much, there are also a million dans, which is enough to support the army for a month.

With the grain and grass settled, Yuan Shao stood up with a smile and said: "Your Majesty, now we have food and soldiers, but as the saying goes, people can't go without a head, snakes can't go without a head, if there is no unified movement of hundreds of thousands of troops, how to march and fight, I hope Your Majesty will appoint an alliance leader!" ”

Bao Xin, the prime minister of Jibei who had not spoken, spoke at this time, he first kowtowed to Liu Wei, and then turned to everyone and said: "Everyone who is doing it may know that this time it is General Cao who welcomes His Majesty to Xu Tian, and Lord Cao has issued an edict to unite us to fight against the thief together, and with Lord Cao's strategy, we can completely lead us to defeat the Dong thief, and I will recommend Lord Cao as the leader of the alliance!" ”

The entire hall was like a death, and everyone looked at Bao Xin like fools. Yuan Shao looked disdainful. Cao Cao closed his eyes and recuperated. Li Hui glanced at this Bao Xin twice, and he could see that Cao Cao had this strength among these so-called heroes, and this Bao Xin really had some vision.

Bao Xin returned to the last seat stupidly, shook his head and sighed. Li Hui stabbed Liu Wei in the back. Liu Wei said excitedly: "How? Who is the leader of the alliance? The crowd was silent again.

Liu Wei yawned and said: "I think the general Yuan Shu is brave and strategic, he can be called both wise and brave, and he can be the leader of this alliance!" ”

As soon as these words came out, Yuan Shu's face was immediately happy, and he turned his head and glanced at Li Hui with his eyes. Li Hui also smiled slightly. There was a sudden burst of discussion in the hall, some for agreement and some for against. The biggest objection came from Yuan Shao, who shouted: "I am the son of the Yuan family, how can my brother listen to my younger brother's system!" ”

Yuan Yi, as the nephew of the Yuan family, said with a smile: "Hehe, now I am choosing the leader of the alliance, not the parents, and I am letting the talented people do it, how can I judge it by age?" ”

Yuan Shao glared at Yuan Yu fiercely, and walked out of the hall angrily. As soon as they arrived at the door, a small soldier who gave orders reported that three people had come from outside, and they wanted to see His Majesty. Yuan Shao walked too quickly and collided with the little soldier who gave the order, and slapped him in the face. Xiaobing looked at Yuan Shao aggrievedly.

Liu argued: "Call those three people in!" ”

A group of people came in, led by two. When this group of people walked into the main hall, they were immediately divided into two rows, a team of three people on the left, and these three people Liu Huan knew that they were Liu Guanzhang's brothers. The team on the right had six people, five older and one sixteen or seventeen child. Li Hui also knew that it was Sun Jian, and he bowed to him and said: "Weichen Changsha Taishou Sun Jian led His Majesty to knock on Your Majesty!" ”

Changsha Taishou Sun Jian came so quickly, no one expected it. Yuan Shu was the first to greet him, pulled Sun Jian and said: "It turned out to be General Wentai, come and come, quickly thank Your Majesty for the reward." ”

Li Hui shook his head and smiled bitterly, this Yuan Shu is really a slippery guy, and he will win over Sun Jian as soon as he comes. Liu Wei gave Sun Jian another Wucheng Hou, and the hall was filled with Yuan Shu's laughter. As for Liu Bei, no one knows anyone. Yuan Shao asked sharply, "The three of you are also here to meet the alliance?" ”

Liu Bei replied: "Yes! ”

Yuan Shao asked again: "Where are the soldiers and horses, what official positions, and how many soldiers and horses, grain and grass are brought?" ”

Liu Bei replied: "Pingyuan County ordered Liu Bei to bring a thousand soldiers and horses. ”

Yuan Shao said with a smile: "These soldiers and horses dare to say that they are here to meet the alliance, what a joke." ”
