The princes gathered together, and Cao Cao stood in front of everyone and said: "Thank you for responding to the text, today we can all gather together, we must exterminate the Dong thief and restore my Han rivers and mountains!" At this point, there was a lot of emotion below.

Cao Cao said again: "I just don't know how to fight this battle next, do you have a good plan?" ”

As soon as the words fell, the group of heroes began to discuss, each with their own suggestions, everyone has everyone's considerations are naturally very different strategies, Tong Ruo did not say a word below, and saw some doorways, although these princes are from all over the place, but they are generally divided into three factions, one faction belongs to Yuan Shao, no matter what Yuan Shao says, they are all in agreement.

One faction belongs to Yuan Shu, and the other faction is like himself, maintaining neutrality.

Yuan Shao saw that there was an endless personal dispute, so he glanced at Wang Kuang, Wang Kuang understood and said: "Today, since all the princes have formed an alliance, one person should be elected as the leader of the alliance, and everyone will act according to his orders. ”

After Wang Kuang finished speaking, Cao Cao replied: "Yuan Benchu, the fourth and third dukes, many former court officials under his door, and also the fate of the Han Dynasty, I think he can be the leader of the alliance." ”

Cao Cao, as the initiator of this alliance, naturally had enough right to speak before the leader of the alliance was established, and as soon as this remark came out, Yuan Shao's party and some neutrals echoed it.

Yuan Shao hurriedly waved his hand and said: "No, no, no, many of you here are highly respected, how can you get my turn." ”

When Yuan Shu heard this, his face was overjoyed, and Han Fu said: "Don't shirk at the beginning, you are young and strong, how can we compare with those of us who are old and decrepit?" ”

Yuan Shao also shook his head and said: "No, no, no, my identity is shallow, and there are more royal relatives and nobles here, how can I sit in the position of the leader of this alliance." ”

Liu Dai said: "At the beginning, you were the fourth and third dukes, why is your identity shallow? Besides, you are brave and strategic, although I am not a royal family, I am willing to listen to your orders. ”

Yuan Shao was overjoyed when he heard this, but he still refused, and everyone persuaded each other with good words, and Yuan Shao agreed.

Liu Bei watched Yuan Shao from the side, but he still became the leader of the alliance after repeated excuses, and his eyes lit up, as if he understood something.

Now that the leader of the alliance has been established, there should be a coronation ceremony, so a three-story platform was built in the camp to line up the flags of the five parties, and the white and yellow medals were built on them, and the soldiers were sealed.

It is now a cold winter, the north wind blows the flag, and most of the heroes are pampered people, who only feel that the cold is unbearable, and only hope to be able to enter the camp tent early to keep warm, so they repeatedly ask Yuan Shao to take the oath on stage.

I saw Yuan Shao standing under the stage, straightening his clothes, taking the stage, lighting three incense, and worshipping a few times with his hands, everyone saw that he was so handsome and chic, and he was so decent when he raised his hands and feet, and said in his heart: "Yuan Benchu is really the best candidate for the leader of the alliance." ”

Yuan Shao stood tall and tall, his voice was like a bell, and he only heard him say: "The Han family is unfortunate, and the emperor is out of control. The thief Dong Zhuo, took advantage of the provocation and indulgence, added disaster to the supreme, and abused the people. Shao and others were afraid of the loss of the society, entangled the volunteers, and went to the country. Whoever is allied with me and works together to make the ministers have no two aspirations. There is this alliance of Chongqing, and it is impossible to lose its life, and there is no legacy. The emperor and the queen of heaven, the ancestors and the spirits, are all learned! ”

Yuan Shao said sincerely, and his voice was subdued, so that Zhuxiong only felt empathy, and even Tong Ruo listened enthusiastically, and said in his heart: "Sure enough, successful people are excellent orators." ”

Looking at others again, there were many people who secretly wept, only Yuan Shu wrapped the thick clothes on his body again, the weather was already cold, after listening to Yuan Shao's oath, he saw that many people were moved by him, which added a little coolness.

After taking the oath, everyone followed Yuan Shao to the Chinese military tent, arranging the seats by age, Yuan Shao was on the top seat, Yuan Shu sat first on the left, although Cao Cao was weak, and the soldiers and horses brought were only a few thousand, but as the initiator and host sat in the first place on the right, and Tong Ruo was the county guard of Liaodong, Liaodong was a barbarian land, and he was not treated well and was still young, and was ranked last on the right, although he was at the bottom, but he finally had a place.

But looking at Liu Bei and the others, standing behind Gongsun Zhan, it seems that no one takes them in their eyes. Thinking of Liu Bei's later establishment of the Shu Kingdom, and now he is indeed such a down-and-out appearance, it is really heartwarming. Tong Ruo couldn't help but secretly think to himself, if it was not Cao Cao who initiated the Dong Alliance this time, but Liu Bei, would the life trajectories of the two be reversed.

Although this seat does not seem to be tight, the powerful relationship inside is indeed big, and the arrangement of seats is to arrange the status of each prince, if the thief is successful, I am afraid that it will also be rewarded according to the order of this seat, and the princes who sit in the front are happy, and those who are in the last seat are inevitably unhappy. For example, Sun Jian, who was sitting opposite Tong Ruo, was already frowning, and his dissatisfaction was unobstructed.

Cao Cao said at this time: "Now that the alliance leader has been established, everyone should obey his command, put aside selfishness, and contribute to the country together, and don't care about who is strong and who is weak because of the order of seats." ”

Yuan Shao said again: "Since everyone elected me as the leader of the alliance, I will be rewarded for my merits and punished for my crimes, and now I have ordered my brother Yuan Shu to be the governor of grain and grass."

Tong Ruo thought to himself that it was really no different from the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, the position of this grain official can be said to be the top priority, as the so-called "county officials are not as good as the current management", even if the general is empty, it is better to hold the lifeblood of grain and grass to be real, Yuan Shu heard this, his eyebrows were relieved, his eyes were shining, and he smiled evilly.

Yuan Shao said: "We now need one person to be the vanguard and go straight to the challenge of Bishui Pass, and the rest of the princes occupy a dangerous position as a backup." ”

As soon as these words came out, everyone was silent, everyone had heard of Dong Zhuo Liangzhou's soldiers, but they didn't know the truth, if they lost their troops this time, wouldn't it be a big loss, just then Sun Jian got up and said: "I am willing to crusade against the thieves for the vanguard!" ”

Sun Jian can have today all because of his military merits, and now let him sit at the bottom of the seat, but he is not convinced in his heart, and he wants to make his first contribution first.

Yuan Shao said happily: "Sun Wentai is brave and strong, and he can take this position." ”

Jian then led the people of the headquarters to kill and run to the water.

At this time in the Luoyang Palace, there is a person sitting high in the hall, bloated, very amiable, this person is Dong Zhuo, the civil and military officials sitting in the hall are all Dong Zhuo's henchmen, and there are many singers and dancers, and they are all beautiful women, I saw him reclining on the seat, Bai Huahua's belly was also exposed a little from the official uniform, his right hand was shaking the wine glass, and his left hand patted his thigh with the music, so comfortable!

At this time, a person came from outside the hall, tall and thin, with a pale face, he walked quickly to the palace, and when he saw these singers and dancers, he couldn't help frowning, and said sharply to them: "Get out quickly!" Get out! ”

The music stopped abruptly, and the women withdrew, holding their instruments.

Dong Zhuo was in the mood at this time, and when he saw this, he couldn't help but look gloomy, and asked puzzledly: "Li Ru, what do you mean by this!" ”

Li Ru said: "Xiangguo, you are here every day to have fun, and you don't know that the sky is reversed outside!" Now that the princes of the Nineteenth Route have gathered, the soldiers have attacked the Bishui Pass! ”

When Dong Zhuo heard this, he hurriedly sat up and exclaimed, "Ah! ”

At that moment a man stood out from the table, dressed in mink fur and with a golden crown on his head, and his name was Lu Bu.

He said to Dong Zhuo: "Father, don't worry, the princes outside the pass, I regard them as grass mustard, and I am willing to lead the army of tigers and wolves, behead them, and hang them in the capital gate!" ”

Dong Zhuo calmed down at this time, and said with a smile: "This surprise actually forgot Fengxian!" With Feng first, what else is there to be afraid of, then play music, and then ......"

Halfway through his words, another person behind Lu Bu stood up and said proudly: "Kill chickens with a knife, and if you don't want Lu Wenhou to go in person, I will behead the heads of all the princes." Speaking of this, he sneered, "It's like picking up something!" ”
