The portable magic tower of the Three Kingdoms

At this point, Lu Bu began to lead his army southward, and Wang Kuang took the official seal of the prefect of Pingyang County and took three hundred private soldiers to take up the post in Pingyang County.

At this time, Liu Tao and the others had already crossed the Yellow River, split into two groups at the same time, one in front and one in the back, and arrived at Suanzao Huimeng.

Chapter 427 Eighteen Roads Become Eleven Roads

"Meng De, I haven't seen you for a long time, are you safe?" Cao Cao took the lead to arrive at Suanzao, where there was already a tent stretching for more than ten miles.After reporting his name, Yuan Shao came out to greet him in person.

On behalf of King Zhao, he went south to seek thieves, and at the same time, he came here to win people's hearts for King Zhao.It's just that everyone knows that King Zhao is a puppet supported by him and Wang Fen, and everyone doesn't buy it.

After all, it is different from Dong Zhuo poisoning the young emperor and holding Xiandi hostage. Everyone knows that the "Xiandi" who is now in Luoyang is actually a fake who is supporting him.Everyone came here not to help the Han family, but to attack Luoyang on behalf of the king behind them.

As the saying goes among all the people, Zongzheng promises that 'the one who enters Luoyang first will become the emperor'.Naturally, everyone will not miss this goal of proclaiming the emperor and then unifying the world.

Even if it is actually controlled, it may only be one state and one county, but the question is who doesn't want to be emperor?

For the ambitious people who mixed in, as long as the puppet they supported successfully proclaimed themselves emperor, then they would become powerful ministers, then take the other side out of the way, and finally make a concession. After this set of procedures, then they can also be emperors.

Out of consideration of various interests, the princes and kings who came here for the alliance, or the generals who came instead of the king, have their own ghosts, which is much higher than in the romance, when the Eighteenth Route princes formed an alliance.

As for the official history, in fact, there were only four or five families that went to the expedition. For example, Qiao Kongrong, Tao Qian, Ma Teng, Zhang Chao, Gongsun Zan, Liu Bei, and Han Fu did not come, and at most they brought some supplies to the front line.

At most, Liu Dai, Zhang Miao, Bao Xin and Qiao Mao who are relatively close may come over to act as cheerleaders.

Those who really participated were Sun Jian, Cao Cao, Yuan Shu, and Yuan Shao, but an alliance is an alliance. At least when they go out to ask for Dong, they don't have to worry about being attacked later.

Now that everyone has their own thoughts, Yuan Shao's wooing is not as effective as before.However, Cao Cao, who has no master, naturally needs to try.

"I heard that Meng De went north, why didn't he go directly to Bingzhou, instead he was entrenched in Hedong?" Yuan Shao also started to get down to business after exchanging pleasantries, first of all pointing out Cao Cao's "Wuzhu" status.

"I didn't know it at the beginning, but Liu Tao hadn't claimed the title of king or emperor yet, so he wantonly promoted his own system and directly regarded himself as the emperor. This person is impatient and ugly, and Cao doesn't bother to be with him! " Cao Cao immediately said angrily when he heard the words, although this was the rhetoric he had prepared from the beginning.

The key is the fact that Liu Tao is indeed different from Liu Tao or Liu Chong. They want to maintain the tradition of the Han Dynasty, but he keeps reforming the tradition of the Han Dynasty.Delete all outdated ones, and then come up with a lot of policies.

"Liu Deran has always been a maverick. He originally worked hard as a general in the Yulin in Luoyang, but he would rather go to a place like Yunzhong to be the prefect. He didn't stop being the prefect, and he took the initiative to invite Ying to go to Xiliang to suppress the rebellion... Yuan I have never seen such a special existence before." Yuan Shao was also emotional when he heard this.

Back then in Lu Zhi's army, his ability to condense ice was very shocking.Of course, what he can't forget is the brave and skilled soldiers under his command, as well as fierce generals like Guan Yu and Zhang Fei.

For this reason, he also recruited some talents, but only Han Fu's younger brother Han Meng, Gao Lan and Qu Yi were the ones who made people's eyes shine.The lack of high-end generals made him somewhat dissatisfied.

"It's just that now, the people who come to the alliance are all the clan members of the Han family, at least they are here on behalf of the clan members of the Han family. It's a bit inappropriate for Meng De to come directly..." Yuan Shao immediately bared his fangs, "Why don't you belong to me temporarily, the alliance ends, and then go your separate ways?"

It's not so easy to leave after really being under his command.

"At first I had my heart." Cao Cao smiled, but immediately refused, "Cao came here this time only to win Dong Dong and kill my big man. As for Luoyang, I can swear that I will never go in!"

"Meng De is frank, but other people may not think so." Yuan Shao smiled.

"It's enough for Cao to have a clear conscience, no matter how others think about it, he can't stop him." Cao Cao replied.

Obviously, this was refusal to solicit. Although Yuan Shao's expression didn't change immediately, he was definitely unhappy in his heart.He didn't talk speculatively for half a sentence, and after a few more perfunctory chats, he left with an excuse.

"Really...what's the difference between you, Yuan Benchu, and that Dong Zhuo?" Seeing Yuan Shao's leaving figure, Cao Cao muttered in a low voice, thinking that by supporting a King Zhao, he would be able to attack the Quartet in a fair and just manner?

The biggest difference between his behavior and Dong Zhuo's is that what he supported was only a real clan.

He knew very well that the Yuan Clan had been planning for a long time. Ever since scholars began to step onto the stage and began to fight for power, the Yuan Clan had been planning to end the situation where eunuchs and relatives took turns taking power.

There were two things that really made them mistaken: the two princes fled and died on the road; Dong Zhuo entered Beijing and directly supported a fake prince to try to order the world.This turn of events almost wiped out Yuan Clan's years of preparation.

Supporting Hefei Hou to be the King of Zhao now is just an emergency measure, but there are too many flaws, which makes people despise.Speaking of which, Wang Fen sent someone over two years ago to discuss with him, intending to encourage Han Emperor to go north to Jizhou, take the opportunity to ambush him, and then push Hefeihou to the throne.

It's just that Emperor Han was about to set off at that time, but he didn't want the Liangzhou Rebellion to break out, so he had to put it on hold.The plan at that time is now used as an emergency measure, but Cao Cao can see through it at a glance.

Seeing Yuan Shao leave, he also entered the camp, asked some questions, and got a little understanding of the princes of the alliance.

Liu Dai came over with Zhang Miao and Bao Xin. For some reason, Liu Dai did not become king.It is estimated that Zhao Wang was the first king and was criticized by others, so he didn't want to end up in the same way.

Needless to say, Chen Wang and Liu Chong are kings themselves, but the territory is only in the area of ​​Chen Guo.However, the three counties of Nanyang, Yingchuan and Runan were in the hands of Yuan Shu.The latter has always wanted to turn Chen Wang into a puppet, and the two sides have no open hostility now.

Needless to say, Yuan Shu, when Yuan Shao came, he naturally came too.At present, he is the same as Cao Cao, no one is recommended, nor is he attached to anyone, but everyone can see that his goal is Chen Wang and Liu Chong.

Gongsun Zan of Youzhou represents Liu Yu's coming, but it's hard to say whether this represents active or passive.Along with him, there was another one who claimed to be a clan member of the Han Dynasty, a young man after King Jing of Zhongshan, named Liu Bei, and a native of Zhuo County, Youzhou.

"Is this person..." After Cao Cao knew this person, he looked at Zhao Yun behind him.

"Yes, this person is the lord's elder brother, but according to Yun Wenyan, the relationship between the lord and this person is not very good." Zhao Yun said in a low voice.

Deducting these three people, Yuan Shao, needless to say, went south on behalf of King Zhao, and Han Fu accompanied the army, who was responsible for escorting the army food and supplies.

Zhang Chao from Xuzhou came here on behalf of Pei Wang Liu Yao, and Tao Qian sent people to provide military supplies.The old Pei Wang Liu Cong died not long ago, and Tao Qian and Zhang Chao supported his son Liu Yao as the new Pei Wang.

This King Pei is not self-proclaimed, but a veritable King Pei of the Han Dynasty. Like Liu Chong, he is a real vassal king.However, unlike Liu Chong, this King Pei didn't care about his own affairs, and was pushed to the front this time, obviously he was also treated as a puppet.

Sun Jian came here on behalf of Liu Biao, the shepherd of Jingzhou.Sun Jian can also be regarded as an old acquaintance of Cao Cao, but he did not expect that he would also play this trick, but it is understandable, the whole world is playing this trick.

But he remembered, Jingzhou Mu, wasn't he Wang Rui?When did he become Liu Biao?I remember Liu Biao, who was still serving in the Northern Army before, when did he go to Jingzhou to become a state shepherd?How is Wang Rui doing now...

No matter what, Sun Jian is here now, representing Jingzhou Mu.What role does Liu Biao play in this, the cooperative relationship, or has he become Sun Jian's puppet?

Rumor has it that Liu Yan, the shepherd of Yizhou, also plans to join, but it's a pity that he can't come here to meet the alliance in person.It is said that they will go north to attack Guanzhong in Hanzhong and contain some of Dong Zhuo's troops.As for whether it was true or not, to what extent, in fact, everyone didn't pay much attention to it, and didn't take it too seriously.

Kong Rong from Beihai came to meet the alliance on behalf of the King of Beihai.The King of Beihai is the descendant of Liu Yi, the previous King of Beihai, and he is already a middle-aged uncle in his 60s.He had no children under his knees, and it is said that he had once, but he was killed in the Yellow Turban Rebellion.It is conceivable that once the King of the North Sea passes away, the North Sea Kingdom will be eliminated.

In fact, Kong Rong didn't have much ambition. In other words, as a descendant of Confucius, his ambition was not to be king or hegemony.This time, he really came to meet the alliance for the King of the North Sea. After all, Zongzheng called for it, but it would be shameful not to come.After all, it’s for soy sauce.

"Include me and Yuan Shu..." Cao Cao made a simple calculation, and immediately said with emotion, "It's no wonder that the camp stretches for more than ten miles."

Strictly speaking, it is ten groups, but before the alliance ends, he and Liu Tao must be two groups of soldiers.

Zhao Wang Liu Su, Chen Wang Liu Chong, Yanzhou Mu Liu Dai, Beihai Wang Liu Shuo, Youzhou Mu Liu Yu, Jingzhou Mu Liu Biao, Pei Wang Liu Yao, Yizhou Mu Liu Yan, and Bingzhou Mu Liu Tao counted as the most core nine roads, all of which were Han Family clan, although some did not come to the scene.

He and Yuan Shu each counted one way, so it is the eleventh way, the princes of the eleventh way are begging for Dong, the scene is indeed spectacular.

Two days later, Liu Tao came to Suanzao "in no hurry" and became the slowest among all the princes of the alliance, but he was the one that no one dared to underestimate.

There are tens of thousands of soldiers and horses in the headquarters, with auxiliary soldiers.Among the tens of thousands of auxiliary soldiers, it is hard to say how many soldiers pretend to be auxiliary soldiers.The key is that the two thousand Hun cavalry are very conspicuous.

Many people secretly wondered whether they were right or wrong in coming to the alliance this time, and whether they brought less troops.

"Haha, I'm late, so please don't be offended!" Liu Tao dismounted in front of the camp and greeted him personally.Of course, the targets are all Han family clansmen like him.

Anyway, I just don't talk to those who are under the banner of XX, but in fact they are the existence of princes along the way.

If they want to support puppets, let them support them, but since you are subordinates, it is normal for me to look down on you. If you have the ability, let your king come and talk to me!

There are exceptions, and that is Sun Jian. After Liu Tao said hello to the several clans who came over, he came to Sun Jian in person: "Wentai, after a farewell to the past, don't you come here? Is Jingzhou comfortable? Why don't you come to Bingzhou to help you?" Let me help the Han family together?"

"Thanks to Zhou Mu's love, everything is well for Sun..." Sun Jian said with a smile, for a moment, he really wanted to agree.
