Chapter 22: Holding a grudge

As soon as Sun Jian's voice fell, the princes who seemed to have become echo worms responded again: "Yes, yes, yes, yes, we should all obey the orders of the alliance leader." ”

For Cao Cao, everything at this time is just a farce, and for Yuan Shao, this shows that the position of the leader of the alliance that he has been thinking about for a long time is beckoning to him, so he thinks in his heart, what to say later, in order to show that he is very humble and forced to become the leader of the alliance.

At this time, Sun Jian, who was still dedicated to supporting the Han Dynasty, had a righteous and bold personality, but he didn't know Cao Cao and Yuan Shao, this one was the founder of the coalition, and the other was the idea in the hearts of the two princes with the strongest military strength, so he looked around and said: "Cao Mengde is not only the first person who dared to assassinate Dong Zhuo alone, but also the first to issue the edict of the Son of Heaven and form the Dong Alliance. We will obey the command and fight the thief together! ”

Looking at Sun Jian, who was clasping his fists in the direction of Cao Cao, Cao Cao and Yuan Shao's moods at this time could be described as different, Cao Cao felt very depressed, and said in his heart Sun Jian, Sun Jian, what are you doing, don't you know that the position of the leader of the alliance is a fire pit? !

However, compared to Cao Cao, who was just depressed, Yuan Shao could be said to be embarrassed and embarrassed, and secretly said in his heart: "Okay, you Sun Wentai, you know that I want to change the location of the alliance, and you dare to say this, it's like slapping me in the face in public!" ”

In fact, Yuan Shao really misunderstood Sun Jian, Sun Jian was just a man with the ideal of serving the country and full of enthusiasm in his heart at this time, and there were not so many detours of other princes, in his opinion, Yuan Shao changed the location of the alliance, but it was really as the letter said, in order to immediately wave the army to attack Bishui Pass after the alliance ceremony, and therefore change the location of the alliance.

Sun Jian, Yuan Shao, and Cao Cao each had their own ideas, and the princes were the same, they kept glancing at Cao Cao, Sun Jian, and Yuan Shao, and secretly thought in their hearts, could it be that Cao Cao also intended to be the leader of the alliance?

In the tent of the allies, the increasingly strange atmosphere even Sun Jian gradually noticed it, but fortunately, Cao Cao stood up at this time to break the strange atmosphere: "Everyone, listen to me for the time being. ”

Cao Cao stood up, looked around at the princes around, and then clasped his fists and said: "Yuan Benchu is the fourth and third duke, a descendant of the Han Dynasty, a protΓ©gΓ© and a former official all over the world, and the voice of virtue is spread far and wide. ”

Cao Cao's words are simply ice cubes in the dog days for Yuan Shao, and the cool Yuan Shao can be said to be cold, with Sun Jian as a comparison, at this time Yuan Shao looked at Cao Cao, how he looked at how cute he felt, and at the same time said complacently in his heart: "Cao Ah concealed your acquaintance, and also understood that with you, the eunuch, it is impossible to fight for me, the fourth world and the third prince, after the famous family." ”

Cao Cao's "acquaintance" made Yuan Shao have a great impression of him at this time, but at the same time, Yuan Shao, who was not very open-minded, had a grudge against Sun Jian, who proposed Cao Cao as the leader of the alliance.

Since Cao Cao opened his mouth to postpone the position of the leader of the alliance, there was nothing to say, and the princes from all walks of life got up one after another and shouted to Yuan Shao, who was still sitting on the seat at this time, except for Yuan Shu: "It must be the original, it is not the original, it is not necessary for you, yes, please don't postpone it, don't postpone it." ”

The princes of all walks of life successively respected Yuan Shao as the leader of the alliance, which made Yuan Shu, whose face was not very good-looking from the beginning, even more ugly, but the general trend had been achieved, and Yuan Shu had to get up and salute Yuan Shao with a fist, expressing that he also recommended him as the leader of the alliance.

Yuan Shao, who almost lost the position of the leader of the alliance, heard this, in order to prevent any more moths, he didn't even postpone it, and directly got up and hugged his fists with a stern face and said to the four directions: "Okay, since the princes have orders, Yuan has no choice but to obey the order." ”

Yuan Shao's ugly "eating appearance" made all the princes of all walks of life feel a touch of contempt for Yuan Shao, but at this time, the matter was decided, and the princes of all walks of life were not saying anything.

In the following time, Yuan Shao, who had just become the leader of the alliance, did not hold the alliance ceremony immediately, but ordered a big banquet for one night on the grounds that it was getting late, and then held the alliance ceremony the next day.

At the evening banquet, Cao Cao watched coldly at the princes who were drinking and staggering, drunk and dreaming of death, and some of the ideas for Kuangfu Dahan that were completely integrated with the original owner Cao Cao in his heart inevitably faded a little, the world is such a person in a high position, what is the use of such a dynasty Kuangfu.

Cao Cao, who raised his head and drank all the wine in the cup, looked behind him, and Guo Jia, who was drinking happily, asked: "Fengxiao, do you say that the allies can succeed in the end?" ”

After taking another sip of wine, Guo Jia opened his eyes that seemed to be confused but were actually shining, and said: "My lord, whether the alliance succeeds or not, the result is the same, it's just that the powerful ministers and thieves in the world have been replaced by another person." ”

In Guo Jia's view, at this time, the Han Dynasty, in addition to not openly claiming the title of king, was actually almost the same as the Warring States Period, and the Han Dynasty was equivalent to the Great Zhou Dynasty during the Warring States Period.

> Say, Dahan can't realize ZTE? Cao Cao lowered his head and asked with a hint of unwillingness and luck.

In fact, although Cao Cao has a trace of affection for the Han because of his complete integration with the original Cao Cao, this feeling is definitely not deep enough to make Cao Cao become like this at this time, in the final analysis, it is just that Cao Cao believes that if the Han can prosper, then the world can be peaceful, and a peaceful world is undoubtedly much better than a world of constant wars.

Guo Jiake didn't know what Cao Cao thought in his heart, he just thought that Cao Cao really wanted Zhongxing Han, but unlike Xun Yu, who wanted Zhongxing Han, Guo Jia, who was born in a poor family, hoped that he would follow a Ming lord and create a new dynasty, and Cao Cao at this time was undoubtedly the Ming Lord in Guo Jia's eyes, so Guo Jia said: "Unless God helps, otherwise, if the Han wants to prosper, it can be said that it is difficult to climb to the sky, and there is almost no hope!" ”

Guo Jia's affirmative tone completely shattered the last trace of luck in Cao Cao's heart, but in this way, he found that the road of revitalizing the Han Dynasty to save his life did not work, so Cao Cao turned to another way, that is, to enhance his own strength, as long as he became the strongest in the world, then no one could threaten his life.
