Chapter 789 Discussing the Dong Alliance (Part 2)

 Chapter 787: Discussing the Dong Alliance (Part 2)

 Qin Hao's petition against Dong was not only sent to princes all over the country, but also posted in various states and counties. This was a very large project.

Jinyiwei mainly focuses on the four spies to obtain information, so naturally it cannot complete such a huge task, while the intelligence network of Heibingtai can be spread across the thirteen states of the Han Dynasty.

Following Qin Hao's order, Heibingtai spies quickly attacked, and in just seven days, the message was spread all over the world, except of course Dong Zhuo's command and Jiaozhou.

Hei Bing's generous move also created an extremely huge momentum for the formation of the Alliance to Defeat Dong, which can be regarded as a good start for the Alliance to Defeat Dong.

 The specific contents of Dong’s petition are as follows:

Haojin declared to the world with great righteousness,

 Dong Zhuo despised heaven and earth, destroyed the country and killed the king;

 It is filthy and disorderly, and it harms living beings;

 The wolf is ruthless and full of sins!

Today, according to a secret edict from the emperor, a large number of righteous soldiers have been gathered, vowing to sweep the Central Plains and kill all the evil forces.

 Hope to promote righteous teachers and vent public anger together;

 Support the royal family and save the people.

 When the message arrives, it can be implemented quickly!

This statement is concise, easy to understand, and clear. Like Cao Cao in the original history, Qin Hao also used Liu Xie's corrective edict as an excuse to form a coalition to attack Dong Zhuo.

The reason why Qin Hao did not hesitate to appeal to the princes in his own name was mainly because Dong Zhuo had not yet reached the point of anger and resentment. The reason why his reputation was so bad was mainly because of the frame-up by the noble family and the princes.

The people of Kansai who have benefited from Dong Zhuo's new policy are actually relatively supportive of Dong Zhuo. However, most common people are ignorant and do not know how to distinguish right from wrong. Therefore, they are more in awe than gratitude to Dong Zhuo.

Of course there are people who come to express their grievances for Dong Zhuo, but in the great wave of anti-Dong people in the world, the words of these people are naturally drowned in the condemnation of the whole world.

Since Dong Zhuo has not yet reached the point of anger from heaven and people, if Qin Hao calls for revenge against Dong in his own name, his appeal will certainly not be so great that the princes of the world will raise an eyebrow.

 It is estimated that if Qin Hao really appealed in his own name, he would only be able to recruit those princes who were dissatisfied with Dong Zhuo or had conflicts of interest with Dong Zhuo, and this would not be enough to break Hulao Pass and capture Luoyang.

 But it is different in the name of Liu Xie.

 Dong Zhuo is the most powerful prince in the world. He is already feared by all the princes. Now that he has entered the imperial court and "holds the emperor's hand over the princes", his intention to unify the world is clearly revealed.

Qin Hao issued a corrective edict in the name of Liu Xie, which not only gave himself a perfect reason, but also gave other princes a step up. The appeal must be much better than that of Qin Hao in the name.

Dong Zhuo's goal is to unify the world, so even if the princes do not attack him, he will definitely come to attack them in the future. Moreover, this time His Majesty issued a secret edict, and the princes sent troops only to act on the order, so it is better to unite and conquer Dong Zhuo first. The threat was eliminated.

 Cao Cao in the original history must have had this consideration, otherwise if it were posted in Cao Cao's name, it probably wouldn't cause a splash. After all, who knows who Cao Cao is?

Cao Cao was not even a prince at that time, and he was able to attract the response of the eighteen princes just by taking advantage of the princes' fear.

Qin Hao is Liu Xie's brother-in-law, and his edicts are far more credible than Cao Cao's. Therefore, it is initially estimated that the number of princes that can be gathered to challenge Dong this time must be above the number eighteen.

As expected by Qin Hao, not long after the edict to challenge Dong Jiao was issued, there were responses from ten nearby princes including Yuan Shu, Tao Qian, Kong Rong, etc., and these ten princes all made it clear that they wanted to join the protest. Dong Alliance.

As the influence of the campaign against Dong gradually expands, this trend will surely condense into a wave, and then the trend of campaigning against Dong will become unstoppable.

As for how many princes will come, Qin Hao is also looking forward to it. What Qin Hao didn't expect was. Liu Xiu of Nanjun also announced at this time that the Han traitors were incompatible with each other. From then on, he broke with Dong Zhuo and prepared to personally lead the army to join the coalition against Dong Zhuo.

I have to say that Liu Xiu's move was really a thief, which made Qin Hao stunned and gritted his teeth at the same time.

Liu Xiu came from the Liangzhou line, and Dong Zhuo's reputation was completely bad, and it was inevitable that he would be greatly affected.

If Liu Xiu had no ambition, there would naturally be no impact. But the key is that Liu Xiu also aspired to the world, so of course he was not allowed to have such a stain on himself.

By breaking away from Dong Zhuo at this time, Liu Xiu could not only clear himself up, but also temporarily get rid of the danger of being destroyed by Yue Fei. It can be said that he killed two birds with one stone.

Dong Zhuo now has too much time to take care of himself, while Yue Fei is sharpening his sword in Xiangyang. With Liu Xiu's current strength, there is no way he can withstand the attack of 60,000 Qin troops. Moreover, once the wave of rebellion against Dong is formed, even though most of the world will have a place in the south, Liu Xiu will have a place to stay. .

 Liu Xiu will face a desperate situation, but if he joins the coalition to challenge Dong, the situation will change instantly.

 Can Qin Hao still attack his allies?

Of course, Qin Hao may disagree with Liu Xiu joining the alliance, but in what capacity will Qin Hao announce it?

 Initiator?

 Or the leader?

 It seems that the sponsor does not have this right.

 As for the leader?

Qin Hao is indeed running towards the leader of the alliance, and he is bound to win the position of leader, but after all, he is not the leader of the alliance yet.

And after Qin Hao becomes the leader of the alliance, it will be even less possible to kick Liu Xiu away.

 After all, if he attacks his allies just after becoming the leader of the alliance, how can Qin Hao convince the people?

I have to say that Liu Xiu's move was really clever, and it hit Qin Hao's weak spot. Not only did Qin Hao have no way to stop it, but he even welcomed Liu Xiu into the alliance against his will. It was disgusting to death.

　　————

With the passage of time, the impact of the petition against Dong became more and more important. Wang Yue and others who were traveling south also saw Qin Hao's petition against Dong when they passed through Xiangyang.

After reading it, Wang Yue sighed feebly: "Hey, it has only been three short years since the War to Destroy Ming Dynasty, and the world is about to restart the war, and this war will last for who knows how long."

From the standpoint of the people, Wang Yue hoped that someone could quickly end the troubled times, but he also knew that this was impossible. After all, the world today was really too chaotic.

From the standpoint of a Han official, Wang Yue could only assist the Liu family to reunify the world. Who made him the "emperor's teacher" of the Han Dynasty?

Liu Bian had long known that there would be a battle between Qin Hao and Dong Zhuo, so his mind was not on challenging Dong. Instead, he glanced at the large group of guards at the city gate and asked doubtfully:

“Master, if Qin Hao wants to be on guard against Dong Zhuo, he only needs to impose martial law on the main passes in the north of Jingzhou. Why should he also impose martial law on the southern ones?”

Wang Yue touched Liu Bian's head and said with a wry smile: "Indeed, Qin Hao has absolutely no need to do this. And the reason why he put the entire Jingbei under martial law was not to guard against Dong Zhuo, but to find us."

I stayed up late to code out a chapter, and I can do two updates today. But I will probably doze off at work in the morning. I hope I won’t be caught by my boss.
