Chapter 323 The Position of the League Leader

Later, several people came to the big tent, and a sense of majesty suddenly came. The sixteen princes sat in the left and right rows according to the year of the title, and almost all the princes in the world gathered here. Wen Han and Gong Sun Zan walked in together. Wen Han sat down under Cao Cao's seat, and Guan Yu and Xu Huang stood on both sides. Gongsun Zan sat under the seat of Han Fu, the assassin of Jizhou, and the three brothers Liu Pan and Zhang stood behind him.

When everyone saw Wen Han and Gongsun Zan sitting still, they unconsciously turned their eyes on Cao Cao Cao. Cao stood up without panic and introduced them to everyone. After knowing each other, Cao Cao raised his glass again.

"Dong Zhuo is cruel and unkind, bullies the king, ** harem, and does many evils. He is the largest treacherous minister in the history of the Han Dynasty. As officials of the imperial court, we should report to the newspaper and the people. The righteousness of the public is the model of the people in the world. Now they gather together the righteous teachers here, and they will definitely be able to eliminate Dong Gou, and also help the royal family with the world. Cao is here to thank the princes.

Cao Cao bowed and had a drink with the princes. At this time, Yuan Shao, who had been secretly looking at the empty position in the center, withdrew his eyes and waved his hand.

"Oh. Meng De's words are bad. We are all officials of the imperial court. We take the salary of the imperial court, receive the great kindness of the imperial court, and kill the treacherous ministers. It is our part of us, and there is no need for a thank-you word. I am not talented. The Yuan family has been favored by the emperor for the fourth generation. I am willing to destroy the Dong Alliance and shed my blood for the alliance. I only hope to save the saint who is being tortured by Dong Gou in Luoyang as soon as possible.

Yuan Shao's righteous words immediately won the applause of many people. Yuan Shao narrowed his eyes and was modest, but he secretly glanced at Wang Kuang, the governor of Rongyang.

Wang Kuang understood his heart. After the princes had expressed his heart of righteousness, when the tent was a little quiet, he suddenly opened his mouth.

"It is said that a bird can't do without a head, and a bird has no wings. Now with great righteousness, we must first establish the leader of the alliance, listen to the restraint, and then march into the army. What do you think of it?"

As soon as Wang Kuang's words fell, all the princes in the account were stunned and looked at each other. Cao Cao's eyes turned. Just now, he had noticed that Yuan Shao secretly gave Wang Kuang's wink, and Yuan Shao often glanced at the central seat from the inside of the account. It seemed that he was bound to win the position of the alliance leader.

And here, he is the most noble in his status. Although Cao Cao also wants to sit in this position of alliance leader, after all, he came from a eunuch family. In the hearts of the princes, Yuan Shao's status must be much higher than him. Cao Cao understood this, so he wanted to open his mouth to push the boat and recommend Yuan Shao, so as to sell him a favor.

However, at this time, Wen Han, who was under Cao Cao's seat, said something that made Cao Cao Cao's heart beat for a while.

"I think that Cao Mengde is single in Luoyang and puts life and death out, which is brave. And in Chen Liu, he took the first place. At the time when Dong Gou was at its peak, he spread a wide range of articles and invited public righteous teachers to fight against Dong Gou, which was a big plan. Cao Mengde, who has both courage and righteousness, should be the leader of this alliance.

Wen Han's words are like countless bolts from the blue, raging in the account. Many princes were stunned and silently bowed their heads and meditate. Yuan Shao's eyes flashed a ferocious color in an instant, but he quickly recovered. He was about to open his mouth to speak. Unexpectedly, in the penultimate position of the right seat, he was extremely powerful all his life. The tiger's head was long, and his arms were like the power of tearing bears and killing tigers. The tiger's eyes were domineering, which was particularly conspicuous in the 18th road.

This person is the Taishou of Changsha, Sun Jian and Sun Wentai, who is known as the fierce tiger of Jiangdong.

What the literary champion said is very reasonable. I also agree."

In a concise and powerful speech, Sun Jian didn't say much, but it was enough to show his meaning. The speeches of Wen Han and Sun Jian made many people agree one after another. Qiao Wei, the governor of Dong County, and Liu Dai, the governor of Yanzhou, agreed.

Cao Cao's heart jumped wildly, but Yuan Shao became anxious and hurriedly winked at Wang Kuang.

"Well, although Cao Mengde has a brave and righteous strategy, after all, how can he be the leader of our righteous teachers after becoming an eunuch? I believe that the three princes of the fourth generation of Yuan Benchu have many old officials, and they are also the descendants of the famous prime minister of the Han Dynasty. Previously, under Dong Zhuo's sword, he was not afraid of strength and openly resisted for righteousness. His courage and righteousness were never inferior to Cao Mengde. In addition, he came from a noble background and should be the leader of the alliance.

"What Wang Rongyang said is very true. I, the Yuan family in Runan, the third prince of the fourth generation, has a noble bloodline, and my brother has always been a great talent, and he should be the leader of this righteous teacher."

Runan Taishou, Yuan Shu, the brother of Yuan Shao, also said at this time. Although Yuan Shu said this, he was disdainful in his heart. In fact, in his heart, he thought that he should be the leader of this alliance. Unfortunately, his reputation is far lower than that of Yuan Shao and Cao Cao. But Cao Cao and Yuan Shao, of course, he should support Yuan Shao. After all, Yuan Shao and he were born in the Yuan family in Runan. After Yuan Shao won the throne, he could also win a lot of fame and fortune from Yuan Shao.

"Ha ha. Regardless of the origin of the hero, Liu Bang, the ancestor of the Han Dynasty, was not the head of the Surabaya Pavilion, and he could finally win the world! What's more, do princes and generals have guts? Birth is not linked to ability!"

Wen Han's eyes were exposed, and he was smiling in his mouth. His words immediately made many princes with low backgrounds agree with him.

Although Gongsun Zan was born in a noble family, because of his mother's low status, he only became a county official at the beginning. Therefore, he especially hated this theory of bloodline. He was about to say that he was willing to stand on Cao Cao's side, but Liu Bei behind him was aware of it and went to his ear and whispered.

"Brother, Yuan Ben was very powerful and occupied the county of Hanoi. In the future, he will definitely get involved in the northern area. At present, the power of the senior brother has not been determined, and it is not appropriate to turn against him. Why don't you sell your face with Yuan Benchu first?

Gongsun Zan narrowed his eyes, thought for a while, and nodded secretly. Then he spoke and stood on Yuan Shao's side. Wen Han was slightly stunned. He didn't expect that Gongsun Zan would support his biggest enemy in the future. Gongsun Zan found Wen Han's eyes, shrugged his shoulders helplessly, and then smiled harmlessly at Wen Han.

Therefore, in addition to Cao Cao and Yuan Shao, the sixteen princes were constantly arguing for the position of alliance leader, and the scene was chaotic.

"The Lord! Lords! Don't argue about this matter. We should all get together for justice. Otherwise, how can we face Dong Gou's 300,000 Liangzhou army? I have an idea. Let's listen to whether it is feasible.

Suddenly, Tao Qian, the governor of Xuzhou, shouted a few times. When everyone saw Tao Qian, who was known as a good man, shouting, they unconsciously stopped. Tao Qian is loyal and righteous, but he does not like to fight for power and profit. He only cares about his own state, and often gives food and grass, gold and silk to support nearby states and counties, which almost responds to his request. Many princes present borrowed grain and silver from him and owed favors, so it was not easy to interrupt the good man's speech.

"Tao Gong has the name of benevolence and righteousness, and he is fair and upright, which can solve the current problem."

"Well, that's right. Let Tao Gong preside over the overall situation.

Liu Dai, the assassin of Yanzhou, and Kong Yu, the assassin of Yuzhou, spoke at the same time. Immediately, the account calmed down, and the princes looked at Tao Qian one after another.

"Good. Thanks to the wrong love of all heroes, then let me preside over the overall situation. You all have a choice in your heart. At the beginning, you and Meng De are almost half the same. I thought that whoever will be the leader of the alliance in the end, the other faction will have more unwillingness in your heart. In this way, it will drag down the righteous teacher.

It's not as good as me to follow. The appointment between the Overlord of Western Chu and Han Gaozu in those years was divided into two ways. They attacked the Ji Pass all the way and the Hu Prison Pass all the way. Whoever captured the Pass first and the soldiers came to the city of Luoyang, he was the leader of the alliance and led the army of the righteous division.

So, I don't know what the public thinks?

"Spect the troops? Is this feasible? Our righteous division, the Liangzhou army, was originally less than Dong Zhuo's. If we divide the troops again, I'm afraid of being defeated by Dong Zhuo!"

Kong Rong, the governor of the North Sea, frowned and shook his head to question.

"It's not. As Mr. Tao said. Nowadays, the public's hearts are divided into two factions. If they rashly agree, there will only be chaos. If you are divided into two armies and have the same heart, you will be able to attack and break through. What's more, both Yuan Benchu and Cao Mengde are talented people. On the other hand, under Dong Gou's command, they are all mediocre people, and how can they be their opponents? I think Tao Gong's idea is feasible.

"Hmm. I also think it's good. If the heart is upset, there will be no front, and if the heart is united, it will be invincible. Except for Yuan Benchu and Cao Mengde, none of the princes is a hero. As long as they are united, no matter how many Donggou's army is, they are like a native chicken and a tile dog.

If the two alliances are separated, there will be a competition, and pressure is the driving force. At that time, it was because Han Gaozu and the overlord of Western Chu had each other as the driving force, there was the broken pot and sinking boat of the Western Chu overlord, and the wonderful plan of Han Gaozu was in the Guanzhong. It's not all bad to divide the troops.

Liu Dai and Kong Yu spoke one after another to support Tao Qian. After listening to it, Yuan Shao was unwilling, but among the 18-way princes, Liu Dai, Kong Yu and Tao Qian's troops accounted for one-third of the whole righteous division. In addition, the three people also sent a lot of food, and their official rank was the highest among the 18-way princes. If all three of them make such decisions, it would be difficult to change the situation.

"The three assassins of Tao, Liu and Kong all made such a decision, so they asked the three assassins to be notarized."

Tao, Liu and Kong looked at each other, and after exchanging glances, they nodded one after another.

"Good!"

"It's right!"

"Of course it is."

After the princes heard that Tao, Liu and Kong were willing to do notarization, they had no more opinions, and Yuan Shao turned his eyes to Cao Cao. Cao Cao, who had been silent, finally opened his mouth.

"Cao is not talented, but the public is determined. Cao must work hard and live up to expectations."

After Cao Cao's words, Yuan Shao also said something modest and accepted the proposal. Therefore, the Extermination of Directors Alliance was officially established and temporarily divided into left and right alliance leaders. The leader of the Left League is Yuan Shao. Under his command are Yuan Shu, the governor of Runan, Han Fu, the governor of Jizhou, Liu Dai, the governor of Yanzhou, Yuan Yu, Bao Xin, the prime minister of Jibei, Ma Teng, Ma Teng, the governor of Rongyang, Wang Kuang, the governor of Rongyang, Gongsun Zan, the governor of Beihai, a total of ten princes, with a total of about 120,000 troops, known as 150,000.

The leader of the right alliance is Cao Cao. Under his command, Kong Yuzhou Assassin, Qiao Mo, the governor of Dongjun, Zhang Chao, the governor of Guangling, Tao Qian, the governor of Xuzhou, Zhang Yang, the governor of Pingyang, Sun Jian, the governor of Changsha, Wenhan, the governor of Hedong, and a total of eight princes, led about 90,000 troops, known as 100,000.

After the princes agreed, they came up with big accounts one after another. The next day, in the center of each prince's company, three layers of high platform were built, with flags all over the eighteen directions, with white yellow lotus, military charms and general seals, and the 18 soldiers and horses under the high platform. They looked up and watched solemnly. The scene was solemn and magnificent.

After a while, more than 200,000 soldiers and horses on the 18th road shouted the names of Yuan Shao and Cao Cao, and invited Yuan Shao and Cao Cao to the altar to worship the alliance. Yuan Shao was dressed in a golden armored red battle robe, gorgeously from the left bench altar, while Cao Cao was dressed in a black armored tiger helmet, wearing a golden tiger pattern dark robe, and went up from the right.
