Soon, Yuan Shao led 30,000 soldiers and horses, as well as all civil and military officials under his command, to Chenliu to join Cao Cao.
Even Liu Qi was invited by Cao Cao to live in the camp.
After the three met, Cao Cao and Yuan Shao jointly issued an edict condemning Dong Zhuo and sent people quickly to various states and counties.
The edict said: We would like to declare to the world with great righteousness: Dong Zhuo deceived the heaven and the earth, destroyed the country and killed the king; he caused trouble in the palace and destroyed the living beings; he was ruthless and unkind, and his crimes were full.
Now we have issued a secret edict and gathered a large number of righteous soldiers, vowing to clear the Central Plains and kill the masses. fierce.
Hope Xingxingyishi will vent public anger together; support the royal family and save the people.
When the edict arrives, it can be implemented quickly After the edict was issued and reached the hands of the powerful people in various states and counties, unlike He Jin who wanted to call in foreign troops to get rid of the eunuchs, the princes from all towns responded to the call and led their troops.
After all, when He Jin issued the secret edict, it was a court dispute, which would not harm their interests in any case; but this time it was different.
Dong Zhuo was in power and ruled Luoyang, and Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty could only listen to Dong Zhuo's words, which would harm them. to their interests.
If there is no action now, it is just that the foundation is unstable.
With Cao Cao and Yuan Shao taking the lead, they will take advantage of Dong Zhuo's unstable foundation to get rid of Dong Zhuo.
Of course, there are still people who sincerely protect the Lord.
When Liu Qi was in Cao Cao's camp, he saw many princes arriving one after another, a total of eighteen princes.
In the first town, Yuan Shu, the governor of Nanyang, the general of the post; in the second town, Han Fu, the governor of Jizhou; in the third town, Kong Min, the governor of Yuzhou; in the fourth town, Liu Dai, the governor of Yanzhou; in the fifth town, Wang Kuang, the governor of Hanoi County; in the sixth town, , Chenliu Prefect Zhang Miao; Seventh Town, Dongjun Qiao Mao; Eighth Town, Shanyang Prefect Yuan Yi; Ninth Town, Jibei Prime Minister Bao Xin; Tenth Town, Beihai Kong Rong, the prefect; Zhang Chao, the prefect of Guangling in the 11th town; Tao Qian, the prefect of Xuzhou in the 12th town; Ma Teng, the prefect of Xiliang in the 13th town; Gongsun Zan, the prefect of Peking in the 14th town; Gongsun Zan, the prefect of Peking in the 15th town Zhang Yang, the governor of the Party; Sun Jian, the governor of Changsha, Marquis of Wucheng in the 16th town; Yuan Shao, the governor of Bohai, the Marquis of Qixiang in the 17th town; Cao Cao, the wanted criminal in the 18th town.
Soldiers and horses from all walks of life, varying in number, ranging from 30,000 to 10,000 to 20,000 to several thousand, each led his subordinate officers and generals to come to join the alliance.
Cao Cao and Yuan Shao went out to welcome the arriving princes from all directions, and allowed them to set up camp nearby, which stretched for more than two hundred miles.
Flags were fluttering, people were shouting, and all kinds of clothes and armor were mixed together, like a group of motley troops.
At the same time, people slaughtered cattle and horses, held banquets, held meetings with the princes, and discussed the strategy of advancing the army.
While the princes were busy Liu Qi did not go forward to disturb them, but took Guo Jia, Dian Wei, Huang Zhong, and Xiao Wu to watch from a distance.
There were also four guards who stayed in the camp and were not brought out.
"My lord is really good at predicting events.
Now, except for Yizhou, Jingzhou and Jiaozhou, where no one has come, people from other prefectures and counties have come," Guo Jia sighed.
Liu Qi smiled and shook his head, saying: "It's not that I predict things like a god.
Many of them are here for profit, and they have the names of Benchu and Mengde, so they can gather all the princes." , if someone else had issued such a call, there would not have been such a grand scene."
Guo Jia also nodded in agreement.
This depends on life experience and reputation.
If it weren't for Yuan Shao's life experience and Cao Cao's reputation, there really wouldn't be so many people responding, and there might be none at all.
"As for Yizhou and Jingzhou, don't forget that the one we want to attack now is Dong Zhuo in Luoyang.
For example, my father is a member of the Han Dynasty clan.
It would be a good idea not to send someone to stop him, let alone Leading troops to help in the battle; as for Jiaozhou, it's even better to say that it is far and remote, and the imperial court has not appointed a governor of Jiaozhou for many years," Liu Qi said calmly.
When Huang Zhong heard Liu Qi talking about Jiaozhou, he just glanced at Liu Qi and said nothing.
Guo Jia also understood what Liu Qi meant, and at the same time he also understood why no one from the Han clan came to lead troops.
Even Liu Qi was only standing here as a spectator, not as a supporter.
However, he did not know that there was actually a member of the Han clan among the princes who came to help in the battle as a subordinate of the princes.
Soon, the banquet was prepared, and Liu Qi and others were invited over, but the seats were at the back and did not attract anyone's attention.
This was also the seat Liu Qi himself explained to Cao Cao and asked Cao Cao to arrange.
Eighteen princes gathered together.
There was also a lot of discussion at the banquet.
After all, in addition to the leaders of the Eighteenth Route and their capable subordinates, there were quite a lot of people in total, and the seats were full.
Liu Qi held the wine glass and took a sip of the wine.
His eyes kept scanning the people at the banquet.
As the princes introduced each other, he also recognized which prince was which and the names of some people.
When he glanced at Gongsun Zan, his eyes stopped and looked at the people behind Gongsun Zan.
One person is born with a body length of seven feet and five inches, two ears hanging down from the shoulders, hands above the knees, eyes that can look at his ears, a face like a crown jade, and lips as if greased; one person is eight feet long, with a leopard's head and eyes, a swallow's chin and a tiger's beard; The body is nine feet long, the beard is two feet long, the face is like a jujube, red phoenix eyes, silkworm eyebrows, majestic appearance.
Seeing the appearance of the three people, a glint flashed in Liu Qi's eyes.

Without any introduction, he could guess that these three people were Liu Bei, Zhang Fei, and Guan Yu.
However, he did not stay on them for long, but glanced at the people behind Gongsun Zan.
The others seemed to be looking for something.
Not seeing the person I wanted to see, I felt relieved for some reason and started to worry about it silently.
After looking around, he saw the people at the banquet.
Needless to say, Yuan Shao and Cao Cao were already familiar with each other before, and their current subordinates could also recognize them.
As for the other princes, except for Gongsun Zan, Sun Jian, and Ma Teng, who are worth paying attention to, the rest are not of interest.
The banquet also gradually entered the Gao Dynasty.
After all, they were all princes who held great power.
It was necessary to brag to each other, otherwise they would not be able to sit where they are now.
About the same time One person stood up and said: "Now we are here to pursue righteousness, but we cannot march rashly.
We must first decide on an alliance leader and obey the constraints of the alliance leader, and then we can march."
For a moment, everyone in the banquet fell silent.
Everyone looked and saw that it was Wang Kuang, the prefect of Hanoi County, but they did not refute Wang Kuang's words.
After all, they were gathered together now.
If there was no alliance leader, they would each fight their own way without any restrictions.
Then they could go back directly without asking for help.
Luoyang has marched, and it is impossible to defeat Dong Zhuo if it is scattered.
However, everyone did not speak, and they were worried about Xiao Jiujiu.
After all, he was the leader of the Eighteenth Route Princes.

This pot is mine.
I'm sorry to everyone.
