In 189 A.D., two thunderbolts were heard in the sky above the Eastern Han Dynasty.

Langya Zhuge Jin, after leaving the Sizhou boundary, merged with the soldiers and horses of the Taishi Dong Zhuo, sent a letter to Dong Zhuo to bully the young master, obscene the court, played with the saint between applause, and connived at his subordinates to burn and loot, Kyoto Luoyang fell into a hell cage, claiming that he and Dong Zhuo would not stand against each other.

Dong Zhuo, who had not yet woken up from this thunder, was dizzy again.

Cao Cao fled, went to Chenliu, discussed with his father, and was funded by filial piety and honesty Weihong, while recruiting people, while issuing a wide edict. The text said: "Cao and others would like to announce to the world with great righteousness: Dong Zhuo deceived the heavens and the earth, destroyed the country and killed the king; Messing with the palace ban and mutilating living beings; Wolves are unkind, and sins are accumulated! Today, under the secret edict of the Son of Heaven, a large number of volunteers were gathered, vowing to sweep away China and kill the murderers. Wangxing righteous teachers, venting public anger; Support the royal family and save the people. When the text arrives, it can be pursued quickly! ”

Later, a white flag was erected to recruit soldiers, and the word "loyalty" was written on it. Within a few days, the recruits gathered like rain.

One day, Yangping Weiguo, surnamed Le, named Jin, and the word Wenqian, came to vote for Cao Cao. There is also Pei Guo's Xiahou Yuan, the character Yuan Rang, heard that Cao Cao raised troops, and his brother Xiahou Yuan two, each led thousands of strong men to the meeting. The brothers of these two people: Cao Song, the father of Cao, was originally the son of the Xiahou family, and he lived with the Cao family, so he was of the same clan. Within a few days, Cao Song sent someone to inform the Cao brothers Cao Ren and Cao Hong to bring troops over. Cao Ren's character is filial piety, and Cao Hong's character is cheap: the two are skilled in bows and horses, and proficient in martial arts, but Cao Song secretly prepared soldiers and horses for the Cao family in the early years. Cao Daxi, Cao was left as a tent officer, and trained military horses in the village. Wei Hong made all his fortunes and bought clothes and banners. There are countless people who send food from all directions.

Zhuge Jin returned to Mount Tai and instructed Xu Rong to be optimistic, so he hurriedly went to the living room.

In the living room, I saw Tian Feng, Fu Zhu, Chen Gong, Xi Zhong, Cheng Yu, Mi Zhu, Guan Yu and others in the column, and when they saw Zhuge Jin pushing the door in, they all got up and bowed: "See the lord!" ”

Looking at everyone, Zhuge Jin was a little excited in his heart: "Everyone, hurry up, I haven't gotten back for five years, thanks to your support!" ”

A few people politely sat down, and Zhuge Jin asked: "Although Jin knows about various places, I still need you to talk to Jin about the current situation." ”

The people below looked at each other, and they couldn't hide the smugness in their eyes.

"Lord, now Mount Tai is a place, with a population of nearly 600,000, water conservancy is built in various places, and there are countless fertile fields, which can raise 200,000 troops, and there are only 50,000 soldiers and horses in the county at present, and the people live a rich life." In the seat, Yu Ban, who came in place of Zhuge Jue, spoke first.

After Yu Ban finished speaking, Tian Feng said: "Chengyang County has a population of 150,000 and 15,000 soldiers. "It's concise and clear, just a general description of the population and armor.

"Beihai County has a population of 250,000 and 30,000 soldiers."

"Donglai County has a population of 550,000, 60,000 soldiers, and 30,000 marine and land soldiers."

"Langxie County has a population of 400,000 and 50,000 soldiers."

"Donghai County has a population of 700,000 and 80,000 soldiers."

"Dongguan County has a population of 300,000 and 30,000 soldiers."

"Jinan County has a population of 500,000 and 50,000 soldiers."

A few people are talented, and the guards of a county can't be put into the eyes of a few people, and they calmly tell the situation in their county one by one.

"Good!" Zhuge Jin stroked his palms and smiled: "You are all great talents, and now the land in our hands is quite rich, I think you already know, now Cao Cao has spread all over the country, and ordered everyone to ask for Dong, Dong Zhuo plays with imperial power, this Han Dynasty has existed in name only, what do you think about this?" ”

Cheng Yu said with a smile: "Yu heard that the lord claimed that he and Dong thief swore an oath, and this alone has won the hearts of the people in the world for the lord, and the matter of courting Dong is a great opportunity to further push the prestige of the lord, and it must not be missed." ”

Tian Feng and the others below also nodded in approval, and after a while, Xi Zhong spoke: "Lord Qiqi, now that the state pastor has been established and Dong Zhuo has power, the imperial court's control over the local area has been equated to nothing, and now we need to reallocate the troops in our hands, and in addition, it is necessary to integrate the resources of each county." ”

Zhuge Jin pondered for a moment: "I also consider this matter, if the chaos is obvious today, our goals can no longer be stared at one county, it will be too scattered, which is not conducive to future battles." My idea is to focus on Langya and redeploy the troops. With Mount Tai, Jinan, Donglai, and Donghai as the foreground, as for the deployment of personnel in various places, it still needs to be discussed by several gentlemen. ”

Cheng Yu and the others laughed at each other, got up and said, "Lord, I will wait for the first step, this matter has already been discussed, and the result still needs to be decided by the lord." ”

"Oh?" Zhuge Jin was happy in his heart, and joy overflowed on his face.

Fu Zhu continued: "Now there are no forces around us that can threaten us, we will discuss and let Gongtai continue to stay in Donglai, and now there is no need for a navy to fight Dong, so Jiang Qin, Han Dang, and Xu Shengsan will continue to stay in Donglai." In Taishan and Jinan, one person is enough, and there are two people, Han Sheng, Wen Zhi (Yu Banzi), which is enough to deal with anything. In the East China Sea, only two generals, Xu Rong and Wen Chou, are recommended to go. Langya, there is only one Yuan Hao, and the lord only needs to send General Gao Shun to garrison. This matter still needs to be decided by the Lord. ”

After listening to this, Zhuge Jin fell into deep thought, now the discussion of Dong has just begun, except for Yuan Shao has developed with the help of the Yuan family, they are still in the dormant period, naturally no one will come to make up their minds, after thinking about it, Zhuge Jin clapped his hands and decided this matter: "Okay, this matter is so decided, as for Yun Chang, Ziyi, and Man Cheng, they will follow me to Chenliu and go to Luoyang to meet Dong Zhuo." ”

"No!" Although the generals who stayed behind were unwilling, they also knew that the military orders were like mountains, so they naturally did not dare to slack off.

Zhuge Jin nodded, and turned to Mi Zhu and said, "Big brother, I will ask you to sit in the rear to ensure the supply of food and grass for my army!" ”

Mi Zhu got up and replied solemnly: "Don't worry, lord." ”

Zhuge Jin laughed, and when he saw that everything was over, he thought about leaving, only to see a person in the hall stand up and say loudly: "Lord, the last general is not convinced, why do everyone have arrangements, but only the last general is missing?" ”

"Huh?" Zhuge Jin was a little stunned when he saw it, and he actually forgot about Yan Liang: "This time it's not mine, in this case, Wen Heng will also go to Chenliu with me." ”

Yan Liang was overjoyed when he heard this: "No! ”

"Okay, this expedition, I will bring 3,000 cavalry, 5,000 infantry, 2,000 crossbowmen, and the rest of the soldiers and horses will guard the important places, but I am afraid that after the end of the fight against Dong, the chaotic war between the princes will begin." Zhuge Jin waved his hand and left with a sigh......
