Chapter 45: The Princes' Alliance

Liu Bin looked at the expressions of several people, shook his head slightly, and said nothing more, so he asked Xun Yu and the others to go out. He returned to the back hall, found Cai Yan and Zhang Yan and the others, and said, "In the next period of time, I will lead my troops to the battle. You can stay at home and don't run around."

When Cai Yan heard that Liu Bin was about to go to war, he said with some concern: "Husband, you are away from home, you must pay attention to your health. You are now noble, so don't lead your troops to charge into battle like before. You just need to command the army behind. Be careful."

But Zhang Yan said, "Ah. Go quickly. Sister, don't worry about him. Who can hurt him like this guy? We can be free when he leaves. When he leaves, we will go out and have some fun."

Liu Bin smiled at Cai Yan and said, "You don't have to worry about me anymore. You don't know that no one can hurt my body. Besides, my current status cannot charge myself. I will pay attention to myself."

Then he rolled his eyes at Zhang Yan and said, "After I go out, you are not allowed to go there. Stay well in the royal palace. First, after I go out, Youzhou may not be safe, and someone may target our Youzhou. Don't go out and cause trouble for me. Second, you must stay in the royal palace to help me monitor the person I told you last time. Don't be careless. This is not a joke."

Zhang Yan then put away her smile and said, "The situation will not be so serious."

Liu Bin smiled and shook his head, saying, "Maybe it won't be so serious, but I always feel bad. You also know that although I am respectful now, there are still many people around Youzhou who want me to die. Now that I am not in Youzhou, they may jump out. Don't ask that, you are still the leader behind the National Security Bureau. Don't be careless."

The National Security Bureau is an organization that has changed its intelligence organization of the Yellow Turban Army, and it is also the third intelligence organization in Youzhou. Zhang Yan is the head of this intelligence organization. When he heard Liu Bin say this, Zhang Yan could only cheer up and say, "I understand, I will pay attention. Just pay attention to yourself. I will protect Youzhou."

Liu Bin nodded. Liu Bin and his wives stayed in the palace for two days before leading troops to the war.

According to the forgery of edicts and manifesto, the princes were preparing to join the Sourzao Alliance. Liu Bin had almost all the information he received. Since he did not want to get involved and did not want to form an alliance with these princes, it would be better to go slowly and let them choose the leader first. At that time, things will be much more interesting. So he deliberately did not rush to the gray place as agreed.

On the other hand, all the princes rushed to the alliance place one after another. Cao Zuo was the initiator of the forgery and the landlord here, so he was naturally responsible for receiving the princes. These princes were like Yuan Shao, who led about 30,000 troops, and burned more than 10,000. Although not many, more than a dozen princes had a total of hundreds of thousands of troops. Therefore, the camps placed were hundreds of miles away. When all the princes arrived, Cao Cao killed pigs and sheep to entertain them. When the princes met, Wang Kuang, the prefect of Hejian County, took the lead and said: "Today we are forming an alliance for the great power, so we naturally have to select an alliance leader, and the generals obeyed the orders of the alliance leader, and then we can make an army easier."

All the princes agreed with each other, but they were not fools. They also knew that among these princes, they were not qualified to be the leader of the alliance. Among the more than a dozen princes, only the King of Jin Liu Bin who had not arrived yet. Apart from Liu Bin, to be honest, no one was present with this qualification. If they really wanted to select the leader from them, there were probably only two Yuan brothers from the Yuan family, three generations and three dukes, and Cao Cao, the caller of this action, had this prestige. As for other people, it was impossible.

The Yuan brothers rely on family background, family prestige and connections, while Cao Cao was the first to call on the princes to attack Dong Zhuo. So they all just made a fuss and said nothing, and they would not have their own share. However, those who were qualified to be the leader of the alliance lit up. They all wanted to be the leader. After all, they were the leader, but they represented the title of the righteousness and could command the princes. In the future, they also represented a identity and attracted talents to join them. Especially Yuan Shao, who had long been ambitious, he gave a wink to the people next to him. Han Fu, the prefect of Wei County, was a disciple of the Yuan family and had a good relationship with Yuan Shao, so he naturally wanted to help Yuan Shao. Seeing Yuan Shao's wink, he said: "Yuan Benchu ​​has four generations, three officials, many old officials, and descendants of famous ministers of the Han Dynasty, can be the leader."

Others who have a good relationship with Yuan Shao and those of the Yuan family disciples also agree with each other. As the leader of Yuan Shao, they can also receive benefits, and they are always better than others. After all, Yuan Shao is the eldest son of Yuan and can represent Yuan.

Although Yuan Shu was a little unhappy, he always thought that he was the legitimate son of Yuan and could represent Yuan, so he always looked down on Yuan Shao, the elder brother of his life. But now with so many people, he was embarrassed to make up his family's shame. He should not make his family's shame. Moreover, he knew that his reputation was not as good as Yuan Shao, so he could only bear the pain and let his confidant follow and support Yuan Shao as the leader of the alliance. After all, they now represent Yuan. If others are allowed to be the leader of the alliance, then they

Both of them were embarrassing. Cao Cao was a little unhappy to see so many people supporting Yuan Shao. To be honest, he also wanted to be the leader of the alliance, but seeing so many people supporting Yuan Shao, he couldn't say anything anymore. After all, the prestige of the Yuan family is much better than that of his family. For the benefit of the alliance, it seems that this time, he had to support Yuan Shao. So he stopped his friend Zhang Miao from not wanting Zhang Miao to come out to support him, and he also stood up and supported Yuan Shao as the leader of the alliance.

Yuan Shao was originally pretending to refuse, saying that he had no talent and no virtue and could not be the leader of the alliance, but he kept watching Cao Cao and Yuan Shu. When Yuan Shu and Cao Cao also stood up to support him, Yuan Shao knew that the time had come, so he stopped refusing and agreed to everyone. The next day, the princes set up a high platform in the military camp, with five flags placed everywhere next to the platform, and white flags and yellow axes were built on them, and military talismans and general seals were sealed. Then the princes invited Yuan.

Shao came on stage to worship the heaven and earth. After Yuan Shao came on stage to worship the heaven and earth, he took out a covenant, which read: "The Han Dynasty was unfortunate and the imperial system was out of power. The traitorous minister Dong Zhuo took advantage of the dangers and harmed the supreme people, and abused the people. Shao and others were afraid of the loss of the country, merged the righteous soldiers and went to the national crisis. Anyone who joined the alliance and worked together to achieve the integrity of the ministers would have no two ambitions. With this alliance, he could lose his life and not be defeated. The emperor and the emperor and his ancestors were wise and spiritual, and they all understood it."

After saying that, he joined the princes in a bloody alliance.

After the alliance was established, Cao Cao said: "Since you have become an alliance today and have established the leader, then everyone must obey the orders of the leader and assist the country together, and do not have differences based on their own strengths and weaknesses."

To be honest, Cao Cao was still very loyal and righteous at this time, and he was devoted to the Han Dynasty. So in order to prevent any differences within the alliance, he still stood up and said first. As soon as Cao Cao finished speaking, Yuan Shao also stood up and said, "Although Chenggong and others are recommended to be the leader of the alliance, they will be rewarded for their merits and punished for their crimes. The state has regular punishments and the army has discipline. Everyone should abide by them and do not violate them."

Naturally, everyone responded quickly. Yuan Shao continued: "My brother, Governor Yuan Shu, was responsible for food and grass, and he was not in a shortage of troops. He also had to be the pioneer and go directly to the Sishui Pass to challenge. I was in danger and thought he would respond."

Yuan Shao also knew that Yuan Shu had always been dissatisfied with him, but since he supported him as the leader of the alliance this time, Yuan Shao also had to repay him and give Yuan Shu an arrangement. As for sending a vanguard, it was naturally for the momentum of the Allied Army.

Yuan Shu felt a little more comfortable when he heard Yuan Shao say this. His efforts finally paid off. Another person also stood up at this time and said, "The Lord is willing to be this pioneer. Please forgive me."

When Yuan Shao saw that it was Sun Jian, the prefect of Changsha. Yuan Shao couldn't help but be overjoyed and said, "The Wentai is unparalleled. It would be perfect for you to be the pioneer."

He has also heard of Sun Jian's name. This guy has been very brave since he was a child. During the Yellow Turban Rebellion, he even led thousands of militias to defeat tens of thousands of Yellow Turban Army and made great contributions. Now he is a subordinate of his younger brother Yuan Shu. He is the vanguard and made great contributions, and he is also proud of himself. As for failure, he will not lose much, and what he loses is his younger brother's power. Then he will not be able to make things difficult for him in the future.

This time, Sun Jian came to attack Dong Zhuo, first of all, for the sake of national justice. He really had a loyal and righteous heart in his heart. To get rid of Dong Zhuo, the traitor, this is naturally a bit forced. Sun Jian felt a little lawless. Although he made many contributions, he was also a little arrogant and domineering. He liked the women of the Wu family, but the people of the Wu family didn't even miss him, so he directly brought soldiers and snatched both of the Wu sisters. This is Sun Ce's and Sun Quan's mother, and the Wu family's grandma. He also offended many families in his hometown and became "clear dragons!", which is the meaning of a robber. In the end, he offended too many people and was plotted and forced out of his hometown. Cao Cao sent a forgery, so he came to respond. This way, he could not only get rid of his own difficulties, but also contribute to the country, but also show his righteousness. He beat multiple goals at one fell swoop.
