Summoning the Peak of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 980

Chapter 978: The Allied Forces Scattered
From Dong Zhuo's point of view, among the princes not surnamed Liu, only Qin Wen is qualified to be listed as the same prince with him, and all other princes, even including Qin Hao, are not eligible to be the same prince as him.

Doing everything must be done step by step, and it is naturally the same to become a king or emperor.

Except for Dong Zhuo, the princes with the surname Liu were all marquises before, and being crowned king directly is equivalent to ascending to the sky in one step, which is more unconvincing.

Although Feng Gong has also taken a big step forward, but not too big a step, it is barely acceptable.

In addition to the three titles of King Yizi, King of the County, and Duke of the State, Dong Zhuo also conferred the title of Marquis of the State, and the targets were not Zhao Kuangyin, Gongsun Xuanyuan and other small princes who were attached to the big princes, but Wang Lang, Huang Zu, and Han Xuan. This kind of less powerful little princes.

Dong Zhuo made him a Marquis: Songhou Zhao Kuangyin, Jihou Gongsun Xuanyuan, Yuehou Wanglang, Shuhou Lukang, Ehouhou Huangzu, Xianghou Hanxuan, Daihou Zhangyang, Chenhou Chen Youliang, Jihou Zhang Shicheng...

Of course, Dong Zhuo didn't forget his subordinates when he wanted to distribute the entrustment.

Li Yuan, Marquis of Tang Dynasty was conferred the title of Duke of Tang, Marquis of Sui Yang Jian was conferred the title of Duke of Sui, and Hua Xiong, Li Jue and other generals were also conferred titles, but none of them had fiefdoms. After all, it was impossible for Dong Zhuo to allow the territories of the Liang army Split.

In short, except for Hong Xiuquan in Jiaozhou, and Ren Hongchang, Zhu Yuanzhang, Li Zicheng and other rebels who escaped into the Sanshan, almost all the princes have been entrusted by Dong Zhuo, and the lowest titles are all state marquises. The public, the county king, and the one-word king.

So far, the Han Dynasty has been officially divided by the princes in name, and the world has officially entered a new era of the Warring States Period.

All the princes who stayed in Luoyang, after being entrusted by Dong Zhuo, all responded in a unified way, that is, they decisively rejected the enfeoffment.

They were still yelling at Dong Zhuo as a national traitor before, but now they accepted his canonization. Isn't that slapping themselves in the face?

What's more, the princes are all here to seek Dong. Although the temptation brought by the conferment of the king and the duke is great, once accepted, it means betraying the alliance. If the surrounding princes are besieged, it is not worth it up.

Therefore, before leaving the alliance, it is absolutely unacceptable canonization.

On the surface, all the princes rejected the canonization, but secretly they were actively preparing to leave the coalition, and then sat and watched the changes in the world afterwards, before deciding whether to accept the canonization.

Most of the princes wanted to leave the alliance, but no one proposed it. After all, the top dog was shot, and all the princes were ghosts and spirits, so no one wanted to be the top bird.

In this strange balance, the coalition forces of the princes have been stable for more than ten days.

All the princes were waiting quietly, waiting for the first person to accept the canonization to appear. They all knew that this day would never be too long, but no one expected that what they were waiting for was the news that Liu He of Youzhou was called the King of Yan. This also broke the fragile balance of the coalition forces.

Liu He is the son of Liu Yu, and he doesn't have too much ambition. The reason why he accepted Dong Zhuo's canon this time is also because he was bewitched by Dong Zhuo's envoy Li Su.

After Liu Che learned about it, he couldn't sit still. After all, his position had not yet been consolidated, and he was thousands of miles away from Youzhou. With the power in his hands alone, he might not be able to compete with Liu He.

Thinking of this, Liu Che immediately came to resign in person, Qin Hao tried his best to persuade him to stay, but Liu Che's intention to go was already decided, Qin Hao had no choice but to let Liu Che lead the army to leave.

In this way, Liu Che became the first prince to leave, and his departure not only means that the civil strife in Youzhou is about to start, but also means that the flames of war in the whole world are about to be rekindled.

As soon as Liu Che left, Gongsun Zan also came to resign. After all, his territory is also in Youzhou.

And with Liu Che and Gongsun Zan taking the lead, all the princes naturally had no worries, and they all came to ask Qin Hao to resign, including even the Yuan family brothers who had just taken over the blood feud with Dong Zhuo.

In the original history, Dong Zhuo also wiped out Yuan's family, but Yuan Shao, the leader of the coalition army, still chose to stop marching, which shows his cold temperament.

Faced with these princes who resigned, Qin Hao tried to dissuade them one by one, but these people also made up their minds to go, and even Qin Hao's mouth was dry, and they still insisted on leaving.

It is impossible for Qin Hao to force them to stay. If he did this, he would offend the princes of the world, so he had to get together and let them go.

In just half a month, nearly [-] princes, including Yuan Shao, Yuan Shu, Liu Xiu, Liu Xie, and Liu Yao, withdrew from the alliance, and the departure of these princes also caused a rapid decline in the strength of the coalition forces.

Of course, there are also some princes who were persuaded by Qin Hao to stay because of interests or favors, such as Tao Qian, Kong Rong, Cao Cao, and Sun Jian, but they still left one after another for various reasons. .

As Qin Wen's sworn brother Sun Jian, the reason why he left in a hurry was because of his neighbor Wang Lang.

Although Wang Lang, the prefect of Kuaiji, was conferred the title of Marquis of Yue, he did not dare to accept it at first, but when he learned that Liu He accepted the position of King Yan, Wang Lang accepted Dong Zhuo's canonization as Marquis of Yue in a flash of his head.

Wang Lang's acceptance of the canonization has little to do with Sun Jian, but this gave Sun Jian an excuse to crusade against Wang Lang. After all, under Sun Jian's governance, Wu Jun's overall strength was much stronger than Wang Lang's Kuaiji, and Sun Jian had already occupied Kuaiji heart, so naturally he will not let go of this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.

Soon after Sun Jian left, Cao Cao, Tao Qian and Kong Rong also left one after another.

This time the princes challenged Dong, Cao Cao's performance was also extremely eye-catching, and this also aroused the fear of the princes in Yanzhou, and there was a faint tendency to unite. Cao Cao was shocked when he learned about it, and quickly led the army back to Yanzhou to sit in town.

In addition, Huang Chao, who occupies Qi State and most of Donglai, not only accepted Dong Zhuo's title of Duke of Qi this time, but also led an army of [-] to attack Beihai before Kong Rong returned. Kong Rong naturally dared not Stayed in Luoyang for a long time.

In addition, Zhu Yuanzhang, who hid in the Dabie Mountains, finally led the army out of the Dabie Mountains after years of forbearance, and chose to attack Guangling County in Xuzhou at this time.

During the Ming Dynasty, Zhu Yuanzhang once rode with [-] steps and defeated Tao Qian's [-] troops head-on.

That battle cast Tao Qian out of the shadows in his heart, and even had nightmares about Zhu Yuanzhang for several months in a row. Now that the nightmares of the past have come back again, Tao Qian naturally dare not relax in the slightest.

With the departure of Sun Jian, Cao Cao, Tao Qian and Kong Rong, only Qin Hao and Qin Wen were left in Luoyang, and the Kwantung Allied Forces were completely disbanded.

　The ninth volume is officially opened, and the discussion of Dong Dong is finally over, and the next step is the protagonist's one-man show, and the road to world domination begins here!
