The Emperor's edict was issued and spread throughout the nine states.
The princes of the world responded and gathered in Zaoxian County.
There are eighteen princes in total, including Cao Cao, Yuan Shao, Yuan Shu, Gongsun Zan, Sun Jian, Tao Qian, etc.
The eighteen princes have a total of 500,000 troops, including 100,000 Yuan family troops, 100,000 Cao Cao family, and the remaining princes totaling 300,000 troops.
Five hundred thousand troops were directed towards Sishui Pass.
On the other hand, there are only 300,000 soldiers at Sishui Pass.
Since ancient times, Sishui has been a great pass in the world. To attack the pass, you need twice the strength of the opponent to succeed.
Back then, Li Jing and Zhang Guifang relied on the Sishui River to hold off the Xiqi rebels' onslaught for several years!
From this point of view, the coalition forces did not have much advantage.
Hua Xiong, the general of the Xiliang Army, rode alone and called for battle.
"Just Hua Xiong, how dare you be so presumptuous?"
Bao Xin, the prime minister of Jibei Province, laughed and said, "I have a younger brother named Bao Zhong. He is extremely brave and will definitely be able to kill Hua Xiong!"
Yuan Shao chuckled and said, "Pour a glass of wine for the strong man."
After Bao Zhong drank wine, he rode out of the gate of Zaoxian County and went to kill Hua Xiong.
The princes are still scheming in the camp. The eighteen princes must choose an alliance leader, right?
"I, the Yuan family, are the fourth generation and the third Duke!"
"I, Gongsun Zan, can also be the leader of the alliance!"
"I, Zhang Miao, can sit down too!"
All in all, it's a mess.
But Shen Gongbao was concerned about Bao Zhong, who had just gone out. This boy was burly and walked with a wind, unlike an incompetent man.
After a few breaths, the soldiers were ordered to report.
"Bao Zhong and Na Hua Xiong fought for less than one round before being killed by his horse."
Silence, all silence.
Less than one round?
"What's going on? So Hua Xiong is so brave?"
Yuan Shu sneered and said, "I have General Yu She who can kill Hua Xiong!"
When Yu She came out, Yisheng was very powerful and powerful.
Yuan Shao personally poured a glass of wine for Hua Xiong and said, "I wish you a victorious return!"
"Thank you!"
Yu She rode out of the city alone to fight Hua Xiong.
Shen Gongbao had no intention of competing with them for the leadership of the alliance, so he went to the city gate with Dian Wei, Xu Chu, Xiahou Dun, and Xiahou Yuan.
Yu She clenched the sword and collided head-on with Hua Xiong. Just as he was about to swing the sword, his muscles and bones felt weak.
"not good!"
In a flash of cold light, General Yu She died.
Shen Gongbao ignored Dian Wei and asked Xiahou Dun directly, "How many rounds will it take you to kill Hua Xiong?"
"Thirty to fifty rounds."
"How many rounds can I kill Yu She?"
"Within twenty rounds."
Dian Wei pursed his lips and smiled, "I can do it with just one move."
If Xiahou Dun was a first-rate military general, then Dian Wei was probably a top-notch general.
"My Lord, there is probably something wrong with Yuan Shao's wine."
"The enemy is currently looking out for all the princes and weakening their power. I am worthy of you, old silver coin."
Not long after, Wushuang General Pan Feng came out of the city.
"A Dian, save Pan Feng and let Pan Feng go back and expose Yuan Shao."
"yes!"
Pan Feng drank Yuan Shao's wine and fought with Hua Xiong for two rounds before feeling weak inside.
Hua Xiong looked disdainful, "Ha! Are all these people in the coalition army?"
"kill!"
Pan Feng was frightened, "My life is at risk!"
Whoosh!
A short halberd broke through the air.
Dian Wei threw a short halberd and saved Pan Feng.
"Go back and let me meet this Hua Xiong."
"Thank you for saving me."
Pan Feng galloped away on his horse, and when he reached the city gate, he was unable to support himself and fell off his horse.
Dian Wei raised his middle thumb towards Hua Xiong and said, "Come and hit me."
"Wucao! Do you really dare to come?"
"Second!"
Dian Wei killed Hua Xiong with one move and walked towards the gate of Zaoxian County.
And at the same time.
Yuan Shao has achieved his wish and assumed the position of alliance leader.
"I, the fourth and third son of the Yuan family, are the most suitable!"
Yuan Shu, governor of the coalition, provided food and fodder for the coalition forces.
Yuan Shao was not happy yet.
Pan Feng came back alive and scolded Yuan Shao for his insidiousness, "Traitor, evil thief, damn it, you actually put cartilage powder in the wine?"
"No wonder Bao Zhong and Yu She lost to Hua Xiong and were killed in just one round!"
"What?"
Bao Xin and Yuan Shu stood up suddenly and looked at Yuan Shao.
"Did you put drugs in the drink?"
"Yuan Shao, what are your intentions?"
Yuan Shao's expression remained calm, and he said calmly: "My skills are inferior to others, and you are slandering our leader? Is this the reason why your skills are inferior to others?"
"Where's the wine? Whether it's drugged or not, you can tell at a glance."
Bao Xin said coldly, it was his younger brother who died just now.
Yuan Shao smiled coldly, "I just ordered someone to change the pot."
"Damn Yuan Shao, you want to destroy the evidence, right?"
"Haha, you can eat randomly, but you can't talk nonsense!"
The other princes are all doubtful.
Cartilage powder will only make people temporarily weak, it is colorless and tasteless, and there is no sign of poisoning.
Without evidence, it's hard to say.
At this moment, a voice came.
"Did Leader Yuan just tell him to change the wine? Sorry, I broke the news."
Shen Gongbao came slowly, holding Yuan Shao's wine flask in his hand.
Yuan Shao's expression suddenly changed, and his eyes were fixed on Shen Gongbao.
Shen Gongbao smiled and said: "If you are not afraid, why would you drink this wine together?"
Xia Houyuan poured half a glass of wine for each of the eighteen princes.
Bao Zhong, Sun Jian, Yuan Shu and other princes drank their faith and doubts.
After about half a moment, his whole body became weak, as if he had been squeezed dry a thousand times.
"There's something wrong with the wine!"
"Yuan Shao!"
"thief!"
"hateful!"
The eighteen princes turned their anger on Yuan Shao again.
"This alliance leader didn't poison me. Maybe Meng De framed me."
Shen Gongbao applauded and said with a smile: "Mengde really admires the leader's slander."
"If I, Cao Cao, poison me, I will be called Cao Cao, who will be struck with thunder from the sky and cut into pieces by five horses."
"Okay, are you here with the alliance leader?"
Yuan Shao was scared and glared at Cao Cao.
The matter is black and white and has come to an end.
However, the Yuan family's army was strong and Bao Zhong and Pan Feng were killed, so there was nothing they could do!
Bao Zhong felt as sick as if he had eaten a mouthful of shit.
"I think Yuan Shao can no longer be the leader of the alliance!"
Sun Jian nodded, "I agree!"
"Absolutely, we cannot let Yuan Shao be the leader of the alliance!"
The other princes from all walks of life all expressed the same voice.
Yuan Shao, this guy is so yin!
"Haha, I, Yuan Shao, am not the leader of the alliance? Who among you dares to be the leader? Who is capable of being the leader of the alliance?"
Looking at any of the princes, no one can convince the other party!
It’s just a mess, but it really has a strong leader!
All the princes looked at Cao Cao.
"What are you looking at me for? Picking up food?"
"Cao Cao can be the leader of the alliance!"
"During the Yellow Turban Rebellion, Brother Meng De swept away the bandits and was the first to attack the Taiping Dao Palace."
"End the chaos!"
"He was also named a hussar general by the late emperor!"
"He bravely entered Luoyang alone and obtained the Imperial Edict!"
"It's the most suitable!"
Cao Cao has many soldiers and horses, so he is a good choice for the alliance leader!
Shen Gongbao: "Oh, I really don't want to be the leader of the alliance."
Half-heartedly, Baobao became the leader of the alliance.
Buzz!
The luck of the atmosphere increases, and the laws of Tao Yun within the body begin to surge.
The eighteen princes are all reincarnations of great powers from the ancient times and possess great fortunes.
And with Baobao as their leader, they can naturally bring together luck!
"Is this...is this the joy of Hongjun's preaching?"
"I can feel it!"
“It smells so good!”
