However, it was said that in the area of the camp in the east of the sour date, at this time Cao Cao, Zhang Miao, and Ma Zongheng were preparing the soldiers and horses. Cao Cao and Zhang Miao both handed over the reorganization of the army to the generals under their command, and each took two generals to rush to the front of Ma Zongheng's army.

"Lord Taishou, what do you think of this horse-wrenching soldiers?" Cao Cao squinted slightly, followed by Le Jin and a strong man. Zhang Miao on the other side was also followed by two generals, namely Wei Zi and Liu Xiang, both of whom were Chen Liu's famous generals.

I saw that the eight thousand sons were well-armored, the spirit was vigorous, the team was strictly organized, and the generals LinkedIn were vigorous, if they were like wolves, they were more like tigers, and they couldn't help but sigh: "Eight thousand strong soldiers, the army is grand, and the generals are as mighty as tigers, and they are really the division of tigers and wolves!" This horse can actually train the Black Mountain thief to this point, and it is not a thing in the pool! ”

"Zhang Gong praised it falsely, these soldiers are all the hard work of the generals, Ma really doesn't dare to be, don't dare to be." At this time, Ma Zongheng also took two generals and rushed over, bowed to Zhang Miao first, and then bowed to Cao Cao with a smile. Zhang Miao and Cao Cao both smiled and returned the salute, and they were shabby with each other for a while, and they were talking about joy. Ma Zongheng's face suddenly changed, and when he noticed a general behind Cao Cao, he couldn't help but be a little surprised: "Man Cheng, why are you here?" ”

saw that the sturdy general behind Cao Cao was actually Li Dian who met in Puyang half a year ago. Li Dian couldn't help but blush, and said a little embarrassed: "Lord Cao is kind to my Li family, and Dian specially received the order of the elders in the family and went to take refuge." Fortunately, Lord Cao appreciated it, and now he is a tooth keeper in the army. ”

"Oh, I see. Lord Cao, Man Cheng is both wise and brave, but he is a rare general, you can treat it well, otherwise my door will always be open for Man Cheng. In fact, Ma Zongheng also learned from Feixing not long ago that Li Dian took refuge in Cao Cao, it is said that his Li Gan is a big family in Shanyang, gathered thousands of diners, and had a friendship with him in his early years, I heard that Cao Cao raised a big crusade against Dong Zhuo, and he respected him in his heart, so he spared no effort to assist Cao Cao, and let Li Dian lead thousands of heroes to take refuge.

Although Li Dian had promised him at the beginning, Ma Zongheng also knew that Pepsi takes filial piety as the first, and then in this Eastern Han Dynasty, the family's familialism is very powerful, and the people in the family have raised their children since childhood, and they must focus on the interests of the family, which is deeply rooted in every family member. Therefore, while Ma Zongheng understood Li Dian's choice, he could only secretly regret that he should not have let Li Dian go back in the first place.

At this time, Ma Zongheng's half-joking tone made Li Dian, who had always valued Xinyi, feel guilty, and he didn't even dare to look up at Ma Zongheng. Cao Cao's eyes flashed with a little different color, but he instantly recovered as usual, and said with a smile: "Haha, it seems that you and I are heroes." With such a talent, Cao will naturally be appointed. ”

"Oh, then I'll see. This time, the heroes will fight Dong Thief, and Ah Cheng will be able to do a great job. ”

"Don't dare, don't dare. Zonghengwu has the power of ghosts, and can anticipate things like a god, there is Zongheng here, Cao is at most a passerby. ”

"Polite, polite. Ma is a junior, such as today's heroes almost gather in this sour date, where is Ma's turn to be the hero? What's more, Sun Tzuri: go to the army to fight, then fight the enemy, and then attack the army. It can be seen from this that strategy is the most important thing in a soldier. Ah Pu has the wisdom of the heavens and the earth, and the opportunity of the heavens and the universe, he is really a capable minister who governs the world, and a hero in troubled times! ”

But listening to the two teasing each other, the more they talked, the more frightening it became, and when Ma Zongheng said the word Xiaoxiong, Zhang Miao and his two generals, as well as Le Jin and Li Dian, all changed color together.

"Haha~! Zongheng is really good at laughing! Nengchen, Cao has more than enough heart but not enough strength. The so-called hero, Cao Mou does not have such ambition. On the contrary, it is to cross you, after frustration, but the more frustrated you are, the more courageous, and now you can make a comeback in Changyuan Dongshan, dominate Dongjun, and shock Yanzhou, this is the true character of the hero! Cao Cao laughed loudly, his voice was loud, and he deliberately amplified his voice when he said the back.

And just as the two were talking, Ma Zongheng's face suddenly turned cold, and the corners of his mouth cracked into a smile: "What a Cao Apu, this time I was yin by you." ”

But seeing that behind Ma Zongheng, Yuan Shao and a group of princes and generals under their command came in a hurry. At this time, everyone heard Cao Cao's shout, and they had different colors. Some people smiled gloatingly, some secretly sneered, some were jealous, and some were so dark that they were about to drip water on the spot!

"People are terrible, but you can't talk nonsense. Qiao Taishou is as kind to me as a mountain, and I have a marriage contract with the bridge family, and I hope to repay him by death. As for Liu Tingshi, he is a member of the Han family, and this crusade against Dong Thief is a great opportunity for us to help him correct the dynasty and restore the Han family. As soon as Ma Zongheng's words came out, Cao Cao and Yuan Shao and the princes' faces changed.

Yuan Shao, who originally wanted to watch a good show, suddenly turned dark. Ma Zongheng said this, didn't this coalition army become the righteous army led by Liu Dai!? After all, Liu Dai is not only a state pastor, but also has royal blood, and his identity and qualifications should be his position as the leader of the alliance.

Of course, this is not counting Yuan Shao and Han Fu uniting. Bohai also belongs to Jizhou, if you count the Jizhou army, the soldiers and horses of these two armies are nearly 60,000.

However, Yuan Shao has always been the most face-bearing, how can he be willing to be subordinate!?

Just when Yuan Shao secretly changed color, Liu Dai and Qiao Mao both showed satisfied smiles. Since it was Liu Dai, a pair of small eyes narrowed with a smile, and the whole person was as if he was rejuvenated, how proud he was, and the surrounding princes reacted and looked at Liu Dai's gaze, which changed a lot.

"Hahaha~! Everyone gathered here to help the big man, and said the word 'thanks', but what did they regard me for!? At this moment, Yuan Shao's laughter suddenly sounded. Ma Zongheng, Cao Cao, Zhang Miao, etc., were busy dismounting and kneeling down to meet each other.

"I'm waiting to see the alliance leader, I'm late, I hope the alliance leader will forgive my sins!" Everyone drank together, and the sound was like a bell. Yuan Shao's face was overjoyed, and then his fate started, and the princes saw it one after another, and the ceremony was finished. Yuan Shao ordered the troops of Ma, Cao, and Zhang to be stationed in Dongying, in order to facilitate it and to prevent the soldiers from practicing again. However, Ma Zongheng knew that Yuan Shao didn't want his troops to get too close to the armies of Liu Dai, Qiao Mao, and Bao Xin, and when the leader came just now, Ma Zongheng had already found that Liu Dai, Qiao Mao, and Bao Xin's troops were all based in Xiying.

"It seems that Yuan Benchu has been jealous of Liu Dai, and this person really has no heart. In the sense of filial piety, it is probably the same. Ma Zongheng secretly slandered, this is the brain turning. It turned out that Wang Xiaohu not only sent back Chiwu from Guo Jia earlier, but also brought three bags, which were red, orange, and yellow. Although Guo Jia's tips are not described in detail, the clever Ma Zongheng understands that Yuan Shao has always regarded him as a thorn in his side, and because of his identity and past grievances, it is inevitable that no one among the princes will provoke him many times and intentionally harm him. And if you want to keep the stability of the army, you can only find a big tree to rely on, and Liu Dai, who has never been assertive, but greedy for petty profits, and wants to win the respect of everyone is a good choice.

And just as Guo Jia expected, just after Ma Zongheng's words just now, Liu Dai suddenly became the most powerful faction among the princes of the Twelve Roads.

Those princes and generals who had not sent troops to Ma Zongheng for a long time, were resentful, and hated him for killing Ding Yuan back then, originally wanted to give him a dismount, but now they were afraid of Liu Dai's power, and they had scruples.

Among the people, Yang Chou and Chen Han all glared at Ma Zongheng angrily, and the people of Bingzhou hated him to the bone, which was not a lie. After all, the faction of the state was under the jurisdiction of Ding Yuan, and it could almost dominate the north. And since Ding Yuan died, the power of the Bingzhou faction was greatly weakened, Zhang Yang alone could not support the overall situation, a few years ago, the northern Xiongnu took the opportunity to invade the border of Bingzhou, killed innocent people, looted countless money and food, these resentments, and the people of Bingzhou were naturally counted on the head of Ma Zongheng!

Ma Zongheng turned a blind eye, so he and Zhang Liao and Pang De behind him issued an order to prepare to camp in place. Cao Cao and Zhang Miaosui also gave their own orders. After a while, Yuan Shao invited everyone to the tent to discuss matters, and Ma Zongheng only took Hu Che'er as an escort and went together.

When it was young, inside the tiger tent. The crowd sat still. But I saw on the right, headed by Liu Dai, Qiao Mao, Bao Xin, and Ma Zongheng sat in turn, and there were more Yanzhou factions of Ma Zongheng and Zài, which had the wonder of being reborn, but I saw that Ma Zongheng was burly and huge, with a faint smile on his face, and his eyes flickered. As for Liu Dai, Qiao Mao, and Bao Xin, because he seems to be bold and confident, they are all in good spirits and full of smiles. Bao Xin and Ma Zongheng are familiar with each other, in the past years in Luoyang autumn hunting, Ma Zongheng still has a life-saving grace for him, as soon as the two sat down, Bao Xin and he talked a few words affectionately, like a pair of old brothers who have not seen each other for many years.

"Ahem!" Suddenly, Yuan Shaoqing coughed twice, and a little resentment flashed in his eyes when he glanced at Ma Zongheng. Ma Zongheng and Bao Xin then stopped and looked at Yuan Shao together.

"Now the princes of the twelve roads have arrived, but I am afraid that the three adults of Cao, Zhang and Ma who have just come do not know, not long ago Wang Kuang and Zhang Shangdang, Han Jizhou's three-way soldiers and horses went to pursue the Xiliang soldiers who looted Hanoi before, but they were ambushed by thieves, and Wang was beheaded by Huaxiong. The war is imminent, if the army is unstable and the armies cannot unite, it will definitely give the thieves a chance to take advantage of it, and I am worried about this matter at this time. I wonder if you have a clever way to distinguish the real from the false? But I saw Yuan Shao sitting on the tiger skin seat, dressed in a bright silver tiger head dragon scale armor, majestic, but presentable.
