Since he agreed to Yuan Shu, Li Hui directly found Liu Wei and asked Liu Wei to give Liu Bei an official position casually. Liu Wei thought for a long time and asked: "What kind of official position did Liu Bei give him, first, he has no meritorious, and second, he has no status, it's very difficult, if he can't get it, the people below will be dissatisfied, at least that Yuan Shao will definitely not agree!" ”

Li Hui smiled: "Then how about giving him a name?" Isn't he a self-proclaimed royalty? Your Majesty will approve it! ”

Liu Wei nodded: "This is also a way, but I don't even have a genealogy in my hand, how can I recognize him?" ”

Li Hui said: "I will handle the genealogy matter, as long as you find out Liu Bei's life experience, and talk about it at the council tomorrow!" ”

The next day, under the convening of Yuan Shu, the leader of the alliance, all the princes gathered in the main hall, and Liu Wei sat down. Yuan Shu was the first to play: "Your Majesty, Liu Bei is a royal family, and now he is my Han and the commander of the army is coming, Your Majesty must reward him with such a heartheart!" ”

Liu Wei nodded and said: "Liu Bei's royal family, I checked the genealogy last night, and after King Jing of Zhongshan, Liu Bei and his people came, and read the genealogy to the adults." ”

Li Hui took out the so-called genealogy and read it word by word: "Emperor Xiaojing gave birth to fourteen sons, and the seventh son is Liu Sheng, King Jing of Zhongshan. Shengsheng Lucheng Pavilion Marquis Liu Zhen. Zhensheng Peihou Liu Ang. Liu Lu, Marquis of Ang Shengzhang. Lusheng Yishui Hou Liu Lian. Lovers of Qinyang Hou Liu Ying. Yingsheng An Guohou Liu Jian. Jiansheng Guangling Marquis Liu Ai. Mourning glue Hou Liu Xian. Xiansheng ancestor Liu Shu. Shu Sheng, Qiyang, Hou Liu Yi. Yisheng Yuan Zehou Liu Bi. Must be born Yingchuan Hou Liu Da. Dasheng Feng Linghou Liu is not suspicious. There is no doubt that the Marquis of Jichuan **. Wison Dongjun Fan Ling Liu Xiong. Xiongsheng Liu Hong, Hong Bushi. Liu Bei is the son of Liu Hong. ”

Liu Wei peeked at Li Hui and said with a smile: "If it is really my royal person, in this way, Liu Bei is the eighteenth descendant of the filial piety emperor, and I should be the seventeenth generation, so it seems that Liu Bei is my imperial nephew." ”

Liu Bei immediately knelt down and said loudly: "The little nephew Liu Bei has seen Uncle Huang. ”

This move not only made Li Hui feel cold, but everyone present looked at him with contempt. Liu Wei laughed: "Since he is the emperor's nephew, let's make a general Zuo!" ”

Liu Bei said loudly again: "Weichen Liu Bei thanks Your Majesty for the reward!" ”

Liu Bei's matter is settled, and the next thing is to discuss how to fight with Dong Zhuo. Yuan Shao, who had been watching the play, suddenly stood up and said: "Now that the military food is insufficient, and the people who promised to send the food have not been delivered, how can we carry out the war with Dong Zhuo?" ”

Yuan Shu immediately said: "Although our army has no food, but the morale is high, it is the end of summer, the weather is cool, just suitable for sending troops, if you delay again, in winter, the weather is cold and freezing and you can't fight again!" ”

Yuan Shu's words were echoed by most people. Cao Cao said: "Although some of the grain and grass have not yet arrived, it has arrived and can hold on for a period of time, I don't think we need to worry, Xu Tian is still far from Luoyang, as long as it moves, the things behind it will be much easier to do, and it is not a way for so many of us to stay here all the time." ”

Liu Bei, the new general of Zuo, said: "What Lord Cao said is that now there are more than 100,000 soldiers stranded in Xutian Town, which seriously affects the lives of the people, and for the sake of the people of the world, we should also send troops as soon as possible, and the key is to exterminate Dong Zhuo." ”

As soon as Liu Bei spoke, everyone stopped squeaking. Liu Wei saw that the atmosphere was cold, and made up his mind: "Since there is no more opposition to sending troops, then choose a good day and an auspicious day, sacrifice the flag and go to the battle, this time we must drive Dong Zhuo Lao'er out of Luoyang." ”

Liu Wei's words are holy decrees, and even if everyone is unwilling in their hearts, they still have to carry it out on the surface. In the next few days, the army began to prepare, the continuous military camps outside Xutian City were dismantled, and the officers and soldiers of all sizes, wearing armor and crowns, lined up in neat ranks, and the brigade of hundreds of thousands of people almost stretched for dozens of miles.

Sun Jian's Changsha Army, as a striker, was at the forefront of the team. Li Hui followed Liu Wei in Yuan Shu's Chinese army, and he drove out mightily. From Xutian to Luoyang, you need to pass through Changshe, Zhongmu, Xingyang, and Bishui, and enter Luoyang through the Tiger Prison Pass. Changshe and Zhongmu are all considered to be the boundaries of Xuchang, and they are relatively smooth.

Entering the Xingyang Territory is even if you enter Dong Zhuo's sphere of influence. Dong Zhuo learned that the Kwantung princes had gathered in Xutian, and hurriedly sent the general Xu Rong to lead an army of 50,000 to stop Xingyang, if he wanted to enter Luoyang, this Xingyang was the first pass, and only by defeating Xu Rong and capturing Xingyang could he continue to march.

Xu Rong is a veteran under Dong Zhuo, quite resourceful, and has repeatedly made miraculous achievements in the Battle of the Yellow Turban and the Battle of Xiliang Rebellion, so he was entrusted with an important task by Dong Zhuo and sent in Xingyang as the first line of defense. Xu Rong and the deputy general Hu Zhen stood on top of the city, watching the large group of people under the city array.

Hu Zhen said: "General, why don't we take advantage of their unstable foothold, come to a surprisingly difficult one, and beat them back in one fell swoop!" ”

Xu Rong shook his head: "The Kwantung princes have hundreds of thousands of soldiers and horses, we only have 50,000, it is not easy to attack, as long as we hold Xingyang, the Kwantung will lose sooner or later, pass the order, everyone must be strictly guarded, and the enemy army must not be allowed to climb the city!" ”

Sun Jian looked at the high city of Xingyang and said to Cheng Pu: "The city wall of Xingyang is tall, easy to defend and difficult to attack, if there are no reinforcements, we will not have the strength to take it." ”

Cheng Pu said: "Aren't we the rest of the princes as our backyard?" ”

Sun Jian smiled: "Backup? As long as they don't stand idly by, it's good, counting on them to rescue us, I'm afraid that no one will come to save us if we run out! ”

A small soldier galloped over on horseback and saluted Sun Jian: "My lord, Your Majesty's envoy has arrived, and he is already waiting in the big tent, please come over." ”

Liu Wei's envoy was Li Hui. Li Hui took the initiative to ask for this errand, he is still a child and likes to join in the fun. After staying in Xu Tian for so long, he stood behind Liu Wei every day, and now that he has started to fight, it is impossible for him not to join in the excitement. Li Hui handed over Liu Wei to Yuan Shu, and took Zhao Yun and his brother to Sun Jian's army.

As soon as Sun Jian entered the big tent, he immediately smiled: "Hahaha, who do I think it is?" It turned out to be Captain Li! I've been wanting to visit you these days, but I didn't expect you to come by yourself, I have always had a question in my heart, why did Captain Li suddenly become a guard for His Majesty? ”

Li Hui said with a smile: "Since we parted that year, we haven't seen each other for three or four years, these years are really indescribable, it's a long story!" ”

The child behind Sun Jian said: "Father, this is the young hero you said, Li Hui, Captain Li?" ”

Sun Jian nodded: "Yes, back then, it was still in Nanyang, Captain Li and his father fought side by side, Captain Li may have been younger than you now, but he was already a thief captain!" ”

Sun Ce smiled at Li Hui. Li Hui waved his hand again and again: "General Sun has won the award, I was a thief captain back then, and now I am still a thief captain, and General Sun is Wucheng Hou." ”
