Return to the Three Kingdoms with the Empire System

Chapter 62
After Wei Zhongdao offered advice to Dong Zhuo, Dong Zhuo readily agreed. On that day, the army began to pack up all the supplies. On the second day, the army set off to Chenliu.

After Dong Zhuojun arrived in Chenliu, it was already March in the lunar calendar, and soon it would be the season of spring sowing, but Dong Zhuo couldn't control so much at this time, and he was directly preparing to issue an edict ordering the princes of the world to use the "Qing Emperor's side" again. "In the name of attacking the newly powerful Ye family in the court.

"The general wants to issue an edict, so why be in a hurry. You must know the principle of 'you can't eat hot tofu in a hurry'. After everything is ready, it is not too late to issue an edict to cut the leaves." Seeing that Dong Zhuo wanted to issue an edict directly, Wei Zhongdao hurriedly stopped him.Just kidding, the false edict can only be done this time, if you don't prepare well, it will be a waste of opportunity.

Dong Zhuo has treated Wei Zhongdao as the first counselor ever since Wei Zhongdao proposed a false edict to him, and Li Ru is not around now.Now that Wei Zhongdao has something to add, Dong Zhuo will naturally not object. "I don't know what Zhongdao needs to prepare, Dong Mou will let people prepare."

"There is no need to prepare too much. It is enough to find a prince who is good at writing articles." He thought that the prince who was good at writing articles was not important to this plan. If the article could not resonate with other princes, then this plan would have to be Declare failure.

Where was Chen Liu at that time? That was the hometown of Cai Yong. During the reign of Emperor Guangwu of the Han Dynasty, Chen Liu and Dong Xuan also served as Luoyang order.This place is also a place with excellent writing style. It is not too difficult to find an prince who is good at writing articles.

After the epistle was written, although it did not have the same effect as what Chen Lin wrote when Yuan Shao was fighting against Cao Cao in Ye Mo's previous life, it could still make people directly feel that the evil deeds of the Ye family were obvious.

In his call to arms, several major crimes against the Ye family were listed:
One: There is no sage in the eyes, and the chaotic guidelines are confused;

Second: The atrocities are obvious and the law is not respected;

The third: disrespecting the sages and forgetting the ancestors;

Fourth: form cliques for personal gain and exclude dissidents.

Just for the four major crimes, the Ye family said it was extremely sinful, as if the nine clans would not be punished and the common people would not be angry.The sincerity of the words and the sharpness of the words, it is as if Dong Zhuo said that he has suffered a great grievance.

Wei Zhongdao picked up the memorandum, read it over, and said with a smile: "In this way, we can use the name of the emperor to tell the world that we will attack Ye Que, who is not a minister." It can only be said that we are attacking Ye Que. After all, only Ye Que is here now. As an official in the court, there are even many uninformed people who think that Ye Que is the head of the Ye family.

As soon as the edict came out, the whole world was shaken.Countless nobles from all over the country held edicts and exaggerated how evil the Ye family was, which indeed made many ignorant people mistakenly believe that the Ye family was really abominable.

Officials in some places were still loyal to the Han Dynasty, so they did not respond to the edict, and at the same time sent many people to refute the rumors, such as Liu Yu, the shepherd of Youzhou.There are also some people who choose not to help each other, neither responding to the edict nor preventing the edict from spreading under the rule, such as Liu Biao, the shepherd of Jingzhou.

But no matter what, the Ye family's "teaching without discrimination" violated the interests of all the families, and these families just lacked an excuse to "anti-Ye".At this time, Dong Zhuo's false decree to cut down leaves immediately gave the gentry all over the world an outlet to vent, and there was an endless stream of responses from all over the world.

In Youzhou, in a separate small camp in Gongsun Zan's military camp, three people were sitting upright.

"Brother, tell me, what are we going to do, should we respond to this Laoshizi edict." The person who spoke was big and thick, with a swallow jaw and a tiger beard, and a leopard head with ring eyes.At this time, he was talking loudly, as if the matter that had been discussed for a long time had not yet been decided.

"Brother, tell me, we brothers all listen to you." The tone of the person who spoke this time was much calmer.It's just that this person is unusual, nine feet long, two feet long beard; red phoenix eyes, lying silkworm eyebrows, a face like heavy jujubes, and lips like fat.

One of them pondered for a moment, and said, "I, Liu Bei, have dedicated my life to helping the Han Dynasty. How can I stay out of it now that the emperor is humiliated and Ye Que is in chaos. It's just..." Liu Bei showed embarrassment when he said this.How can Liu Bei not know that the current situation is not what Dong Zhuo said, but he didn't point it out for his own advancement.

"Brother, don't be mere. Since you want to respond to the edict, you should discuss this matter with General Gongsun as soon as possible." Zhang Fei is worthy of a violent temper. Hearing Liu Bei's hesitation, he interjected directly.

After pondering for a moment, Liu Bei nodded in agreement.In fact, Liu Bei didn't want to answer the edict alone, but he now only has more than two hundred soldiers, even if he went to answer the edict, he might not be able to attract the attention of others.

Gongsun Zan didn't want to answer the imperial edict at first, he was a soldier, and he did things straight. After seeing through Dong Zhuo's tricks, Gongsun planned to ignore it.But he never thought that although he himself didn't want to pay attention to this matter, his junior brother Liu Bei was very concerned about it.

Gongsun Zan knew that Liu Bei had selfish intentions in responding to Dong Zhuo's edict, but after all, he was a classmate, and Liu Bei treated him like an older brother when he was studying. Now that his younger brother wanted to help, how could Gongsun Zan refuse.

When Yuan Shao in Jizhou heard about Dong Zhuo's false decree to cut down leaves, he responded happily. Not only did he respond, but he also used the influence of the Yuan family to call on others to respond as well.Wang Kuang, the prefect of Hanoi, did not hesitate to collect taxes in advance, and even risked offending all the gentry under him to prepare food and grass for Yuan Shaojun.

Yuan Shao responded to the edict, and Yuan Shu would naturally not fall behind.Not only did Yuan Shu respond, but he also asked Sun Jian, the governor of Changsha, Marquis of Wucheng, to send troops to respond as well.

In this way, with the excuse given by Dong Zhuo, the princes from all over the world responded one after another and came to Chenliu to meet the alliance:

The first town: the rear general Nanyang prefect Yuan Shu;
The second town: Han Fu, governor of Jizhou;
The third town: Liu Dai, the governor of Yanzhou;

The fourth town: Wang Kuang, prefect of Hanoi County;
Fifth town: Qiao Mao, prefect of Dongjun;

Sixth town: Yuan Yi, prefect of Shanyang;

The seventh town: Bao Xin, Prime Minister of Jibei;
Eighth town: Beihai prefect Kong Rong;

Ninth Town: Xiliang prefect Ma Teng;

Tenth Town: Shangdang prefect Zhang Yang;

No.11 Town: Sun Jian, Marquis of Wucheng, Changsha Prefect;
No.12 Town: Yuan Shao, Governor of Bohai Sea;
No.13 Town: Liu Bei, magistrate of Pingyuan County;
Including Dong Zhuo's own troops, there were a total of fourteen towns and princes.

Although Liu Dai was a clan member of the Han Dynasty, he no longer paid attention to the declining Han Dynasty. He thought more about whether his own interests could be protected.

As for Han Fu, Wang Kuang, Qiao Mao, Bao Xin, and Sun Jian, they joined because of the Yuan family's reasons, or they were forced by the Yuan family, or the Yuan family officials came here just to respond to the Yuan family.

Although Ma Teng's daughter was kidnapped last year, Ma Teng also suspected that Dong Zhuo did it, but there was no evidence.At this time, Dong Zhuo issued an edict, if he didn't come, it would be equivalent to turning against Dong Zhuo.As for Han Sui, the other leader of Xiliang, he can only be counted as Ma Teng's subordinate because he has no official position in the Han Dynasty.

Zhang Yang was dissatisfied with Ding Yuan's handing over Bingzhou to Lu Bu. Logically speaking, he was the second in command of Bingzhou. He wanted to wait until Ding Yuan died to accept the Bingzhou affairs.But when Ding Yuan died, he was still only the second in command, and Lu Bu took over.

Liu Bei was because Gongsun Zan was concerned that the war with Xianbei was imminent, and at the same time worried that Liu Yu would hold him back, so he directly assigned Liu Bei the post of county magistrate of Pingyuan, and at the same time gave Liu Bei 5000 infantry troops as capital. .You know, Sun Jian only brought [-] people to the alliance.

The most incredible thing is that Kong Rong actually participated in the alliance. You must know that Kong Rong is a descendant of Confucius.But if you think about it carefully, you don't think much of it. Although Kong Rong is the successor of the sage Confucius, Kong Rong is also a son of the gentry. Although he is incompetent, he still has to protect the interests of the gentry.

Standing on the city wall of Chen Liucheng, Wei Zhongdao looked at the bustling Chen Liucheng, without hiding the smile on his face.
