Chapter 198: Hua Xiong stirs up the situation
Wei Xuan looked at Sun Jian, the other party's face was sincere, Wei Xuan felt that such a straight man was threatened by Yuan Shu during the day to say that, so what he said now should be credible, so he said: "Xuan is the first to respond to the three dukes, naturally he wants to separate from Dong Zhuo, but now Kong Yuzhou is a soldier Yang Zhai, in addition to the previous things, Xuan has to send someone to watch him, in this way, although it seems that there are more than 30,000 people, there are only 20,000 who can really be used." ”
Sun Jian nodded: "I can understand, but Yi Jian seems that Kong Gongxu's army is now in turmoil, if he wants to do something to you and Yang Zhai again, not many people will listen to him, Yang Zhai's four thousand soldiers are enough to deal with it." ”
Wei Xuan shook his head: "What if Yuan Highway supports him?" He didn't come to sour dates and went to Yangzhai, and he was full of confidence at the beginning. You must know that after taking Yangzhai, Runan is the residence of the Yuan clan, and the entire Yuzhou is his Kong Gongxu and Yuan Highway. ”
Sun Jian sighed, although he looked a little stunned when he was middle-aged, that is, he felt that his martial arts were good, and he was not afraid of death on the battlefield, but it did not mean that he didn't know everyone's careful thinking, if he was a little hindsight, then after Wei Xuan's reminder ????????????????, Zhang Zhi's matter, he should also understand that the Eighteenth Route Alliance is actually to rationalize rebellion and secession. Next, everyone has to consider their own way out, he Sun Jian is actually no better than Wei Xuan, his territory is in Changsha, if Yuan Shu obstructs or there is someone in Xiangyang, he will go back all the way. That's why he left some people in Xiangyang.
This time I came to visit Wei Xuan because I heard that Wei Xuan can fight, so the two may be able to achieve a partial victory and stand out among the eighteen people. If everyone fights Dong Zhuo together, maybe a few more will be killed or injured, and he won't have to go all the way back to Changsha.
Sun Jian also has his own considerations for following Yuan Shu in addition to helplessness, and now the eighteen-way people seem to be huge, but there are only a few people who have appeal, among which the Yuan brothers are in the top two. Yuan Shu's mind is clear to him, occupy Nanyang and plot Jingzhou, if successful, he can enter Yangzhou and Yuzhou in the east. Yuan Shao's situation is actually similar to Yuan Shu.
Sun Jian's territory is in Changsha, and his hometown is in Fuchun, Yangzhou, does he take refuge in Yuan Shao? But Wei Xuan is also a ruthless man who can fight, in case Wei Xuan kills Kong Ling and masters Yuzhou, the world will be lively.
After thinking for a while, Sun Jian said, "Zhongdao." Tomorrow, the eighteen-way people will swear in public, and the local governors who did not participate are not easy to say, and the eighteen-way people and horses of the sour jujube should not attack each other again within a year. ”
Wei Xuan nodded, this is also the reason why Yuan Shao, Cao Cao and others insisted on taking the oath first and then electing the leader of the alliance, first of all, we must ensure that the eighteen-way people do not continue to split, the alliance is meaningful, and it is necessary to elect the leader of the alliance, otherwise it is already divided It is better for everyone to fight and divide the superiority. But Yingchuan is the family he has saved with great difficulty, especially it is a pity that there is one less famous general brought around, so he can't gamble on what happens. And Kong Ling and Yuan Shu's character is unbelievable, which is why Wei Xuan supports Yuan Shao, at least Yuan Shao is stronger than Yuan Shu in terms of character.
However, since Sun Jian proposed it, Wei Xuan couldn't help but respond: "Thanks to Wentai's trust, when I return to Yangzhai Xuan, I will prepare to send troops and attack Dong Zhuo together with my brother." ”
Sun Jian was overjoyed when he heard this, stood up and complimented: "Zhongdao is worthy of being a famous family, a disciple of Kang Chenggong, and he is waiting for the day when he will meet Zhongdao under Luoyang City." ”
After sending Sun Jian away, Wei Xuan thought that it was almost over, so he could chat with Guo Jia for a while about his perception of the eighteen-way people, and then went to rest. The next morning, when Wei Xuan led people to the altar used to make an oath, he found that most of the leaders of the Eighteenth Route Alliance were not in good spirits except for himself, and he thought that he was busy with the series last night and did not sleep well.
Cao Cao saw Wei Xuan's look of watching the play and said angrily: "Zhong Dao's heart is really wide, I heard that you fell asleep in less than two watches last night." ”
Wei Xuan smiled: "Xuan is the last to come, and it is also appropriate to go to bed early when you are tired from afar." ”
Cao Cao thought about it and felt that he had nothing to say, so he said: "It's about to start, hurry up and get on stage." ”
Wei Xuan nodded, the princes of the Eighteenth Road are about to officially perform on stage, but Wei Xuan is very curious about who will preside over the oath today? Cao Cao or Yuan Shao?
】
It's just that when the eighteen people stood on Yuan Shao's left and right in order, they found that he didn't know the person who came out to preside over the ceremony.
Wei Xuan looked at Cao Cao on his right in astonishment, obviously looking for an answer????????????????。
Cao Cao whispered: "This is Guangling Gong Cao Zanghong." ”
Wei Xuan glanced at Yuan Shao playfully, and then figured it out, since the leader of the alliance has not yet been elected, such a sensitive identity as presiding over the ceremony cannot be any leader of the Eighteenth Route Alliance, because whoever presides over the ceremony can say a few more words, and can also take advantage of giving people a preconceived illusion. This is similar to the form of the United Nations in later generations. The Secretary-General of the United Nations is certainly not the P5 and other major powers, and is generally a small country in Asia, Africa and Latin America.
Guangling Taishou Zhang Chao only has 5,000 soldiers and horses, and he does not have the strength to compete for the leader of the alliance, and the popularity of Zhang Miao's two brothers is also good, so Yuan Shao and Cao Cao chose Zang Hong, and others will not object.
The alliance ceremony is complicated and complicated, simple and simple, that is, to sacrifice heaven and earth, and then everyone fingers a drop of blood on the ground into the wine jar, of course, chicken blood, and then stir it up and everyone gets a cup. Of course, chicken blood should also be used to rub it on the forehead, which is the so-called blood alliance. Everyone pointed to the sky and swore to do great things together.
Zang Hong is very talented, and a memorial essay is catchy, Wei Xuan seriously suspected that it was written by Yuan Shao and asked Chen Lin to write it, and when he finished reading, he began to let people take blood one by one with the wine jar.
Wei Xuan was a little unaccustomed to drinking human blood, especially to drink the different blood of eighteen people, so he took a few steps back thinking about it, and Cao Cao was the same as Wei Xuan.
Brother Yuan Shao is not afraid, and he is very generous, dripping a lot of blood in the wine jar, probably thinking that he has more blood, and he has more opportunities to be the leader of the alliance.
Zang Hong finally came to Cao Cao and Wei Xuan, helplessly, Cao Cao took out a small dagger and slashed on his finger, and was about to drip blood into Amway, when a person hurriedly ran up to the stage and shouted on horseback: "Uncle Fang, Dong Zhuo's army has arrived, and the general Huaxiong will lead the troops." ”
Hearing this, everyone was stunned, Liu Dai's soldiers and horses were arranged in front of him, and it was his subordinates who came to report the news, so he hurriedly came to the edge of the platform and asked, "How many people are here?" How's the battle going? ”
The man was stunned for a moment and then replied, "Three thousand cavalry, it should have just arrived in front of the camp, and there has not yet been a battle." ”
Wei Xuan looked at Cao Cao, Cao Cao had already covered his fingers with his hands, and he didn't care if there was his own blood in the wine jar. The others did the same, throwing Zang Hong off the stage in a hurry and going to Liu Dai's front camp.
Wei Xuan turned around and glanced behind him and said, "Fengxiao, you quickly go to the barracks and let Du Peng prepare the men and horses to rush over, Guan Hai, you take three war horses to find Liu Bei, and let Guan Yu and Zhang Fei follow." ”
After speaking, he walked a few steps quickly to catch up with Gongsun Chan and said: "Gongsun Taishou, the enemy is only 3,000 cavalry, you and I have 2,000 people here, plus your personal soldiers and the protection of the camp, you should not be afraid of Huaxiong who comes from afar." ”
Gongsun Zhanxin said that even if Lao Tzu had a thousand people, he would not be afraid of that Huaxiong, but he forgot about it in a hurry.
At this time, Cao Cao also heard it, he grabbed Yuan Shao and said: "At the beginning, Zhong Dao was right, just let Liu Yanzhou guard the camp gate, I will quickly gather the guards to fight with Zhong Dao and Bo Gui, and I will definitely be able to win." ”
Yuan Shao thought about it for a while, and this is also the reason, the total number of guards of the Eighteenth Route Alliance Army is not as good as before, there are hundreds, plus the two thousand cavalry of Wei Xuan and Gongsun Zhan and countless generals, even if it is a field battle, his side has an advantage. This Hua Xiong clearly knew that the coalition forces were holding a ceremony to make trouble today, and he was still too nervous, so he should let the ceremony be completed, but now that everyone has run away, he can only wait until he reaches the front camp.
Wei Xuan was the calmest one on the stage who heard Dong Zhuojun's attack, but he was the last to arrive on the watchtower of Liu Dai's military camp. The reason is that he is waiting for Du Peng to come with the team, and he is also waiting for Liu Guanzhang, and the smart people on the battlefield cannot be separated from their own army, although this is the inside of the coalition camp, who knows if it is Yuan Shu or Liu Dai who is cheating.
When Wei Xuan ascended the watchtower, he saw that in the open space outside the barracks, three thousand Xiliang cavalry in the distance were cheering, and the spear of the first member of the war general pointed to this side, obviously provoking everyone.
Three or four steps before his horse, a corpse lay on the ground, presumably dead. Wei Xuan cast a consultative gaze towards Cao Cao, and Cao Cao said quietly: "This is Hanoi Fang Yue, Hua Xiong challenged outside the battle before, and Wang Gongjie ...... in order to make a long face for Ben Chu."
Wei Xuan heard the words and went to see Yuan Shao, the face that had not rested was even more ugly, in fact, Wei Xuan was very sympathetic and understanding of Yuan Shao, Yuan Shao fought for the leader of the alliance not to crusade against Dong Zhuo, but for the status of the coalition army, in order to inherit the huge intangible assets of the Yuan clan in Runan, he could have more say in the future.
Wei Xuan looked at Yuan Shu again, Yuan Shu was whispering to a person, and then he saw the door of the camp open, and a horse flew out, without waiting for Wei Xuan to ask, Cao Cao said, "This is Yu She, the general under the command of the highway." ”
Wei Xuan covered his face, another corpse. As expected, Yu Shi appeared a few rounds like Fang Yue, Hua Xiong on the opposite side laughed, and the three thousand Xiliang cavalry roared, and Hua Xiong was even more rampant.
The face of the Eighteenth Route Coalition Army fighting here is ugly. Especially Yuan Shu, he wanted to take this opportunity to suppress Yuan Shao, but his generals were too uncompetitive and more embarrassed than Yuan Shao.
Cao Cao looked at Wei Xuan, and said in his heart, aren't there many fierce generals under your hands? Wei Xuan is also thinking about how to make a name for himself, this Huaxiong can come to harass as a vanguard, he must have some ability, but that's all, it is impossible for three thousand cavalry to help the coalition army with hundreds of thousands hiding in the camp, so the coalition army is actually undefeated, and there is no need to panic at all.
