Chapter 108 Meeting the princes
In one day, under Liu Bian's command, the outstanding political abilities of Fan Zhongyan, Xun Yu and others began to operate crazily.Soon, everything needed for Cao Cao's [-] vanguard army was prepared.

Liu Bian is the Son of Heaven, Cao Cao is the envoy sent by Liu Bian, so of course he can't act sloppily.Don't lose the majesty of the emperor.Banners, food and grass should be fully prepared as needed.

On the second day after the discussion that day, Cao Cao set off.

A huge "Han" character battle flag fluttered against the cold wind, and then "Cao", "Xiahou" and "Yang" three battle flags came side by side.The [-]-strong army headed straight for the territory of Henan with the bitter cold wind left.

Suanzao County is located in Henan County, which is now Yanjin.It is the junction of the three states of Yuzhou, Yanzhou, and Jizhou, and it is a place that military strategists must contend for.

Dozens of miles to the west of Suanzao is the world-famous Sishuiguan.

Originally, there was only one Hulao Pass in history, and what Shan Liubian passed through was the world of Romance. Therefore, about a hundred miles before Hulao Pass, there was another Sishui Pass, blocking the way of the coalition forces of the princes.

Hulaoguan is the barrier of Luoyang. It connects Songyue Mountain in the south and the Yellow River in the north, and is a natural moat formed by heaven and earth.

Dong Zhuo’s army who wants to attack Luoyang has three ways to go. One is Dong Zhuo’s hometown, Xiliang, send troops from Xiliang, and attack Luoyang from Chang’an, Hangu Pass and other places, but Ma Teng in Xiliang is not strong enough, and Xiliang It's Dong Zhuo's hometown again, and this road doesn't work either.

Another road is from Bingzhou, across the Yellow River, and directly to Luoyang.

But now it is the beginning of spring, the Yellow River is frozen, and many places have not melted. If it melts, it will be the flood season again. It is difficult to supply large troops to pass through. Only a small number of troops can pass through.

Moreover, in the north of Luoyang, Li Cui's [-] troops were on guard. Liu Bian's old nest, Bingzhou, besides the Black Mountain Army, also had the Baibo Army.If Liu Bian dared to attack Luoyang from this road, there would be another Yang Feng colluding with Dong Zhuo in the Baibo army.

Therefore, the only way left is to attack Sishui Pass and Hulao Pass from the east.

The jujube is the gathering place of the princes.

Cao Cao, as Liu Bian's envoy, rushed to Suanzao first, and was responsible for contacting the princes.If Liu Bian went to the alliance of princes early, wouldn't it be the emperor and other courtiers, which would be a loss of etiquette, but after all, it was you who initiated the alliance, so it would be shameful for you to go out.

So Cao Cao came out instead of Liu Bian.

As the initiator of the alliance, Liu Bian had to prepare the place for the alliance himself.

Cao Cao traveled day and night to Suanzao and ordered his soldiers to cut down trees and build a platform for alliance.He also prepared the camps of the princes from all walks of life, and he was very busy.

Time passed slowly, and princes continued to come to the alliance.

The weather is getting warmer, and people are not wrapped in thick clothes like in winter.If you are hot from work, you can even just wear a single piece of clothing.

In Jinyang, in the courtyard where Liu Bian lived, Liu Bian held a wooden sword and was fighting fiercely with Wang Yue.

Compared with half a month ago, Liu Bian has made rapid progress.Facing Wang Yue's fierce sword moves, Liu Bian seemed to be able to handle them with ease.

Liu Bian stepped on the steps taught by Wang Yue. Unlike Wang Yue's ghostly body, Liu Bian was like a swimming dragon, walking with the kingly sword, paying attention to momentum and coercion. beat the opponent.

"Your Majesty, I'm going to speed up!" Seeing this speed, Wang Yue couldn't hurt Liu Bian after a while, and the corner of his mouth curled up.

"Come on! I won't..."

Before Liu Bian finished speaking, there was a slap, and Wang Yue's wooden sword hit Liu Bian's wrist all at once, and Liu Bian was in pain, and the wooden sword came out of his hand.

"Master Wang, you are actually cheating. If you hadn't distracted me, I might have defeated you today!" Liu Bian said indignantly.

"The premise is that you maintain this strength and reaction!" Liu Bian added.

"Soldiers never tire of cheating. In addition to their own strength, they must also use their minds! This time it is all strength! However, your majesty and the minister are taking a different path. Your majesty is the emperor, and he pays attention to being upright, while the minister is the way of assassination. Pay attention to unscrupulous methods , kill the enemy and win!" Wang Yue shook his head and sighed.

"There is no distinction between strength and weakness in the way of swordsmanship. Those who can defeat their opponents are good swordsmen. It's just that different people use it differently!"

"Well, Your Majesty is talented and intelligent, and his achievements in the future will surely surpass this old man!" Wang Yue exclaimed.

Liu Bian picked up the wooden sword that fell to the ground just now, struck a sword flower and said, "It doesn't count just now, let's come again!"

"Your Majesty, Prefect Cao has returned with a message!" a soldier outside the door passed the message.

Since Zhang Rang and other Shichang servants fled under the auspices of Liu Bian, He Jin and others were killed, but the eunuchs in Luoyang Imperial City also suffered heavy casualties, and almost none of them survived.He even killed many people without beards by mistake.

As for Liu Bian's northern tour of Bingzhou, naturally there were no eunuchs accompanying him.

Liu Bian hated eunuchs very much. Although there were many good eunuchs in history, Liu Bian was very disgusted with such people. His voice was shrill, and some of them were even smeared, neither male nor female.

When Liu Bian thought of being taken care of by such a person in his daily life, he shuddered for a while.So after settling down in Bingzhou, Liu Bian stopped accepting eunuchs, and those who passed on the credit were all confidants.As for the daily life, they recruited a few women who could take care of others, and they were taken care of by Tang Wan and Empress Dowager He.

"It seems that we can't come. Meng De sent a message that the princes from all walks of life must have arrived, waiting for me to go to preside over the overall situation!" Liu Bian put away the sword and put the wooden sword back on the weapon rack.

Liu Bian called the soldiers in.

The soldier handed Liu Bian a kit and then withdrew.

"The princes from all walks of life are almost here, it's really interesting!" Liu Bian looked at those kits.The corner of his mouth curled up, revealing a smile.

It turned out that in the kit, not only did it say that the princes had arrived in Qi, Cao Cao also wrote the names of all the princes to Liu Bian.

But those princes?

A total of eighteen towns:
The first town, the rear general, Yuan Shu, the prefect of Nanyang County!
In the second town, Han Fu, governor of Jizhou!
In the third town, Kong Ni, governor of Yuzhou!

In the fourth town, Liu Dai, governor of Yanzhou!

No.16 Town, Marquis of Qixiang, Yuan Shao, Prefect of Bohai Sea!
No.17 Town, Taishan County, prefect Zhao Song Zhao Kuangyin!

No.18 Town, Liu Yu, Shepherd of Youzhou!

There is no Cao Cao, no Zhang Yang, but there is more Zhao Kuangyin and Liu Yu!

"Interesting, but I don't know if you can rise up?" Liu Bian murmured.

"Your Majesty?" Wang Yue asked in confusion.

"Haha, I mean I've been waiting for this day for too long. If Dong Zhuo doesn't get rid of me, I won't be at ease!" Liu Bian said with a mocking smile.

"This day has finally come. With the power of the princes of the world, Dong Zhuo will be defeated and His Majesty will return to Luoyang!" Wang Yue nodded.

"Dong Zhuo's matter has already been prepared, and the civil and military officials are ordered to cook at the third watch tomorrow and set off at the fifth watch! Let's go to Suanzao together with me to defeat the traitor Dong Zhuo!" Liu Bian shouted to the soldiers standing outside the door.
