The dukes who followed closely behind could be said to be surnamed Cao!
That's right, there were quite a few dukes who would listen to Cao Cao.
Bao Xin, the Prime Minister of Jibei, recognized Dong Zhuo's ugly face before Dong Zhuo's chaos. He once advised Yuan Shao and Wang Yun to get rid of Dong Zhuo, but unfortunately, neither of them accepted it. He was Cao Cao's good friend, and it was later he who recommended Cao Cao to be the herdsman of Yanzhou.
The Governor of Chenliu, Zhang Miao, had been a friend of Cao Cao since a long time ago. His family was wealthy and he was a righteous person. He made friends all over the world. After Dong Zhuo usurped power, he responded to Cao Cao's call to attack Dong Zhuo. This person was not good at commanding troops, and his troops had always been with Cao Cao's troops.
The Governor of Guangling, Zhang Chao, was the younger brother of the Governor of Chenliu, Zhang Miao. He had a good relationship with his brother, so he naturally listened to Cao Cao.
However, there was no eternal friendship in this world. When Cao Cao massacred the innocent in Xu, Zhang Miao and Zhang Chao, under Chen Gong's persuasion, accepted Lu Bu and betrayed Cao Cao!
This was also why Cao Cao was appointed by Yuan Shao as the general of the 18 dukes. It was because of his influence!
Other than Sun Jian, the prefect of Nanyang, who wanted to make a name for himself, the only one who truly wanted to crusade against Dong Zhuo was Liu Dai, the governor of Yanzhou. Liu Dai was a relative of the Han clan, so he was naturally one of the 18 vassals who sincerely wanted to save the Han clan. Unfortunately, he was unable to do so alone.
Then, there were some people who came to make their presence known.
The Governor of Beihai, Kong Rong, became famous when he was young. He was a good person, but his military strength was average.
Xu Prefecture Governor Tao Qian could barely be considered to be able to manage internal affairs, but he was not good at leading troops in battle.
Gongsun Zan, the prefect of Beiping, was known as the White Horse General. During his tenure as Zhonglang General, he had defeated the harassment of the Wuhuan Xianbei and became one of the most powerful princes in the north.
Shangdang Governor Zhang Yang had average strength and only had a few thousand men under him. Although they were all Bingzhou Cavalry, they were far inferior to the Wolf Cavalry that Lu Bu had taken away.
Ma Teng, the prefect of Xiliang, was the descendant of Ma Yuan, the general of Fubo in the Eastern Han Dynasty. He had half the blood of the Qiang people. In terms of strength, he was considered above average.
Xiang Qian was more interested in whether Ma Teng had a daughter named Ma Yunlu.
Now, Xiang Qian realized that there were a few people missing from the tent.
Strange, why weren't the three Peach brothers here yet?
These three brothers looked very special. It was easy to tell. One looked like a gibbon, one looked like a drunkard, and one looked like Charcoal. Even if they were thrown into a crowd, they would be able to see them clearly at a glance!
Could it be that they didn't join the alliance to attack Dong Zhuo?
No way, the Three Peach Brothers were the main characters of this show!
Cao Cao's eyes narrowed slightly as he looked at the other dukes praising Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu. He felt a little disdainful, but he didn't show this emotion.
At this moment, Cao Cao turned around and looked at Xiang Qian. He noticed that Xiang Qian was deep in thought and asked,""Wenjin, what are you thinking about?"
Xiang Qian blurted out,"Why aren't the three Peach brothers here?”
Cao Cao frowned slightly.”
Xiang Qian smiled." Pingyuan County Magistrate Liu Bei and his two sworn brothers, Guan Yu and Zhang Fei, once became sworn brothers in the peach garden. I call them the Three Peach Brothers.
Among them, Guan Yu and Zhang Fei have the courage to fight against ten thousand men. Their strength is not much weaker than Lu Bu's, and they are far stronger than your brothers. I really want to fight with them!”
Xiahou Dun's face darkened." Xiang, I admit that I can't beat you, but you can't compare me with the younger brother of a county magistrate, who is an unknown person!"”
Cao Cao tugged at his beard and thought for a moment." I remember now. When we were fighting against the Yellow Turban bandits, I once fought side by side with the three brothers!
I remember that one red-faced man and one black-faced man were indeed very brave!”
When Cao Cao first met Guan Yu, he fell in love with him at first sight. After meeting Guan Yu a few times, he wanted to subdue Guan Yu even more.
However, he really shouldn't have taken the woman that Guan Yu was thinking about, Qin Yilu's wife, Du Yueniang!
The legend of Guan Yuyue killing Diao Chan in unofficial history was too ridiculous. Was it good to portray a hero as inhumane?
According to the Biography of Guan Yu and the Records of Shu, in the third year of Jian 'an, 198 AD, when Liu Bei and Cao Cao attacked Lu Bu together, Guan Yu asked Cao Cao to take Du Shi, the wife of General Qin Yilu under Lu Bu's command, after taking the city. Because Guan Yu had mentioned this matter to Cao Cao many times, Cao Cao was extremely curious. After Xiapi City was captured, Cao Cao ordered his subordinates to capture Lady Du and bring her to him for him to see. When Cao Cao saw Lady Du's beauty, he forgot his promise to Guan Yu and left this woman for himself. Guan Yu was " not at ease " because of this and was filled with anger. From then on, Guan Yu and Cao Cao fell out because of this woman. Later on, Madam Du gave birth to two sons for Cao Cao, one called Cao Lin and the other Cao Gun.
……
As the saying goes,'speak of the devil, and he will come.' Now that he was here, the three Peach brothers had arrived.
"Lord Gongsun, the prefect of Beiping, has arrived!" Peach and her brothers followed Liu Bei's senior brother Gongsun Zan into the tent.
Gongsun Zan was a bearded man who was about to die.
Xiang Qian's gaze was fixed on Peach and the other two brothers.
