"Big brother! You see, Lord Chu Huan is summoning all the heroes in the world to attack the traitor Dong Zhuo. Why don't we lend him a hand?”Cao Hong ran over excitedly with a copy of the denunciation.
Cao Ren took the document and looked at it. He lowered his head and fell into deep thought.
Ever since my brother Cao Cao died in battle and my uncle Cao Song was dismissed, our Cao clan's situation in Chenliu has been greatly reduced.
Now that the world was about to fall into chaos, it was time for heroes to rise up. Moreover, Chen Liu was located in a war-torn place in the Central Plains and was not a place to settle down. Chu Huan was also a person who valued relationships and loyalty. Would joining him give the Cao family a better future?
Seeing Cao Ren staring blankly at the document, Cao Hong said anxiously,""Brother, are you going or not? Say something!”
Cao Ren woke up from his thoughts and said with determination,""Go! Why not? The rise and fall of the world is the responsibility of every man. [We are going to Jingzhou with our entire clan. Zilian, go inform the Xiahou family and ask them if they want to go with us!]”
....
At this moment, the Jing State army began to expand wantonly. The infantry army expanded to 80,000, the navy to 40,000, and the tiger leopard cavalry to 2,000.
"Milord, there is a group of people outside the door requesting an audience. They claim to be Milord's old friends!”The butler came in to report.
Old friend? A group? Since when did he have so many old friends? Was He Jin reincarnating or was Zhang Rang still alive?
It was better to go out and take a look.
"I was wondering who it was. So it's Zixiao, Zilian, and sister-in-law! Who are these two warriors?"
There were five people standing outside the door. However, he didn't know two of them. As for the ones he knew, hehe, after a few years, Cao Cao's wife Bian Shi was becoming more and more mature, hehe.
"Greetings, Lord Chu. Let me introduce you. This is Xiahou Dun. This was Xiahou Yuan, also known as Miao Cai. Both of them were Meng Deben's younger brothers. They were skilled in archery and riding, and their martial arts were strong. Recently, we heard that you want to raise a righteous army to attack the country's thieves. We specially raised our clan to surrender. I wonder if you welcome us?”
Chu Huan was already overjoyed.
"Zixiao, you're treating me like an outsider. As long as you're Brother Meng De's brother, you're my brother. Where are your clansmen? Where was he? I'll arrange a place for them to stay immediately."
Cao Ren heaved a sigh of relief. As long as he could gain a foothold in Jing State and obtain Chu Huan's support, he would not have to worry about the Cao family not being able to rise again in the future.
"Thank you for your concern, sir. We arrived first. Our clansmen are still on the way. We should be able to reach Xiangyang before dark!”
"In that case, I'll get someone to arrange a place for you to rest first. Tonight, I'll hold a banquet to welcome you!”
Everyone shouted," Thank you, Sir!"
.....
The next day, Chu Huan announced his new appointment.
He ordered Cao Ren to be in charge of the cavalry, Xiahou Yuan to be in charge of the archers, Xiahou Dun to be in charge of the baggage, Cao Hong to be in charge of the archers, and Cao Chun to be the counselor of the tiger leopard cavalry.
The day of departure was finally approaching.
Cao Ren, Cao Hong, the Xiahou brothers, Taishi Ci, Xu Chu, Cao Chun, and Dian Wei were appointed to lead 50,000 troops north to attack the rebels. The rest of the people stayed behind. Kuai Liang was transferred back to Xiangyang to temporarily take over the government affairs, and Kuai Yue was transferred back to Wuling as prefect.
Soon, the vassals from all over the country arrived at the wild jujube.
Under Chu Huan's encouragement and firm refusal, everyone pushed Yuan Shao to be the alliance leader.
What a joke, the various dukes could not work together at all, so this difficult task should be left to Yuan Shao.
Yuan Shao was in high spirits as he went up to the stage and shouted," Although I am not talented, since I have been elected as the alliance leader, I will reward those who have made contributions and punish those who have committed crimes. The army has discipline and cannot be violated.”
"My brother Yuan Shu is the governor of the grain and fodder. As your backing, we need one person to be the vanguard to challenge the Lishui Pass.”
A heroic middle-aged warrior stepped out from the crowd." Jianyuan is the vanguard!”
This person was Sun Jian? Sure enough, you have style. I hope you can strangle Yuan Shu to death when you run out of food.
"Milord, the Jing State is in a state of emergency.”A messenger panted as he ran to Chu Huan's side, attracting the attention of everyone.
The timing was perfect!
Chu Huan immediately acted excited and surprised." What? Wuling is rebelling?"
After saying that, he turned around anxiously to rouse everyone's emotions. Then, he said helplessly,"Everyone, the rear of the Jing Prefecture is unstable. I have no choice but to transfer some of my troops back to quell the rebellion.”
Without waiting for anyone else to speak, he immediately ordered," Zixiao, Zilian, Yuan Rang, Miaocai, lead 30,000 soldiers back to Jingzhou.”
"As ordered!" The four of them immediately ordered their soldiers to leave. No one dared to stop them!
Luoyang.
"Prime Minister, we just received an urgent report that the 18 vassals of the east of the country have launched a rebellion and are heading towards Mushui Pass.”Li Ru hurriedly ran into the Prime Minister's residence.
"What is it? These bastards!" Dong Zhuo was so angry that he smashed the teacup in his hand into pieces!
"Father, don't worry. The vassals outside the pass are like grass to me. I'm willing to personally lead an army to wipe out the rebels.”Lu Bu stepped forward.
"Why use a sledgehammer to kill a chicken? Hua Xiong is willing to be the vanguard and cut off the heads of all the princes!”
Dong Zhuo was delighted." Good. Hua Xiong will be the commander of the cavalry. He will lead 50,000 troops to meet the enemy first."”
Li Ru reminded him from the side," General Hua, the other vassals are not to be feared, but you must be careful of the Jingzhou governor, Chu Huan. After all, there is no false reputation.”
"Hmph, I was just about to meet him."
