On the third day of the first lunar month, Liu Rui led his generals to inspect the military camp.

In the next few days, Liu Rui was able to have a few days of leisure, chatting with Xiahou Qingyi, Li Shishi, and Qin Banruo in the backyard of the county governor's house on some topics of love between children.

Early on the seventh day of the first lunar month, Dai Zong hurriedly came to the county governor's mansion with a letter in his hand.

Liu Rui and Qin Banruo, who were still sleeping, were also woken up by Shi Yan, and the two came to the council room after washing up.

"Dai Zong, what military situation did you come here early in the morning?" Liu Rui asked.

"Reporting to the lord, Cao Cao, who was recruiting troops and horses in Chenliu, sent someone to deliver the edict of the son of the present day, claiming that Dong Zhuo was in charge of the government and brought disaster to the country and the people. I hope that the lord will join him in raising troops to attack Dong Zhuo!" Dai Zong replied.

"When today's emperor's edict? Cao Cao fled from Luoyang in a hurry that day, how could there be an emperor's edict?" Qin Banruo said with a puzzled face.

The corner of Liu Rui's mouth rose slightly and said, "When the son is in Dong Zhuo's hands today, the authenticity of the edict is irrelevant.

A trace of surprise crossed Qin Banruo's face and said, "With such a bold and arrogant manner, Cao Mengde is indeed an extraordinary person!"

"My lord, this time Cao Cao has issued an edict, and almost all the forces have received it." Dai Zong said.

Qin Banruo asked, "How many people responded to Cao Cao?"

"Yuan Shao, the prefect of Bohai County, and Yuan Shu, the prefect of Nanyang, responded to Cao Cao's call immediately after receiving the edict. Now they are rectifying their troops and preparing to fight against Dong Zhuo, and the rest of the princes will also be in a day or two. News!" Dai Zong said.

Liu Rui said: "Dai Zong, you tell everyone to come to the council room immediately!"

"As ordered!" Dai Zong turned around and walked out.

Qin Banruo asked in a deep voice, "My lord, are you planning to participate in the crusade against Dong Zhuo by the princes this time?"

"Yes!" Liu Rui said with a smile.

Qin Banruo hesitated for a moment, then said, "This crusade against Dong Zhuo is very likely to fail!"

Liu Rui smiled slightly, and said unabashedly, "I didn't even think about succeeding in this alliance, everyone has their own plans in their hearts. In name, they are attacking Dong Zhuo and helping the Han family, but these people really That's not what they think about, they only think about their own interests, with such a group of teammates like pigs, how could the crusade against Dong Zhuo be successful?"

"If that's the case, why are you..." Qin Banruo asked the puzzlement in his heart.

The corner of Liu Rui's mouth curved slightly and said, "There are two reasons for me to join the Huimeng. First, to fight against Dong Zhuo, although the princes are said to have ghosts, but almost everyone maintains the same attitude when it comes to the Huimeng's crusade against Dong Zhuo. Before Dong Zhuo was exterminated, even if the princes had other thoughts and plans in their hearts, they would endure the alliance until after the alliance, and the alliance was a considerable blow to Dong Zhuo's strength. The second point, fame, my goal is to unify the world. I need to get people from everywhere to come to me, and only when they know my reputation will they come to me."

Not long after, under the notice of Dai Zong, the generals rushed to the conference hall one after another, and Liu Rui handed the edict sent by Cao Cao's police to the generals to read.

"What do you think after reading it?" Liu Rui asked with a smile.

Xiahou Jie cupped his hands and said, "This is a good opportunity. Even if the edict is up for debate, we can join forces with various princes to fight against Dong Zhuo."

"At present, Dong Zhuo's power is indeed the largest, and it is difficult for any prince to compete with him alone. Unity is undoubtedly the best choice!" Yue Fei analyzed.

Xue Rengui said in a deep voice: "It is necessary to send troops, but these princes may not all sincerely attack Dong Zhuo. The lord needs to beware of open and secret battles within the alliance."

The generals did not have any different opinions on the matter of sending troops to attack Dong Zhuo.

"I am a clan member of the Han family. It is my duty to attack Dong Zhuo and help the Han family. I decided to respond to the call and raise [-] troops to attack Dong Zhuo." Liu Rui said in a deep voice.Everyone saluted in unison and said, "My lord is wise!"

Liu Rui and Qin Banruo looked at each other and said with a smile, "Princess, I'll leave Changshan County to you!",

"Hannya will live up to the entrustment of the lord!" Qin Banruo said with a slight bow and salute.

"Yue Fei, Xia Houjie, Xu Rong, Hua Rong, Wang Chongyang, Dai Zong, I ordered six of you to assist the military advisor to stay in Changshan County!" Liu Rui said.

"Subordinates obey!" Xia Houjie and the other six said in unison.

After Liu Rui arranged the candidates to stay in Changshan, he said: "Zhao Zilong and Lin Chong, you two are the front and deputy pioneers, leading [-] men and horses to open the way to the mountain and bridge the water. Tian Boguang, you are the grain escort officer, responsible for the army's grain dispatching and supply. Chasing your life, order you to lead the Anbu, and the Shadow Department can set off to Luoyang to investigate the enemy's situation for the army. Xue Rengui, Qiao Feng and other generals will join me on an expedition against Dong Zhuo!"

Everyone responded in unison: "Follow your orders!"

On the eleventh day of the first lunar month, Liu Rui, the governor of Changshan County, after Yuan Shao, the governor of Bohai County and Yuan Shu, the governor of Nanyang, was the third to publicly respond to Cao Cao's call. He raised [-] troops from Changshan County and went straight to Luoyang to attack Dong Zhuo.

After that, Sun Jian, Governor of Changsha, Mu Han Fu of Jizhou, Wang Kuang, Governor of Hanoi, Gongsun Zan, Governor of Beiping, Kong Rong, Governor of Beihai, Ma Teng, Governor of Xiliang, Zhang Yang, Governor of Shangdang, Tao Qian, Governor of Xuzhou, Qiao Mao, Governor of Dongjun, Yuan Yuan, Governor of Shanyang The widow, Minister of Jibei Bao Xin, Governor of Yanzhou Liu Dai, Governor of Yuzhou Kong Yu, Governor of Guangling Zhang Chao, Governor of Chenliu Zhang Miao publicly responded to the call and raised troops to attack Dong Zhuo, plus Liu Rui, Cao Cao, Yuan Shao, Yuan Shu, a total of nineteen Pedestrians.

Luoyang City, in the residence of the Grand Master.

"Father, Li Ru asks to see you!"

Lü Bu came to Dong Zhuo's bedroom door and reported loudly to Dong Zhuohui, who was still on the soft couch.

Dong Zhuo, who was excited, waved his hand and said, "Let him wait outside!"

"Yes!" Lu Bu turned and exited the bedroom to the outer room.

After about half an hour, Dong Zhuo put on his coat and walked out of the bedroom slowly and leisurely.

Li Ru hurriedly handed over the emergency document and said: "Taishi Rongqi, Cao Cao raised troops in Chenliu, under the guise of today's Zizhao book order to order the lords of the world to raise troops to attack the Taishi, and now nineteen princes have responded, and all the troops have now been On the way to Luoyang!"

"Ah!" Dong Zhuo was shocked when he heard the words, his hands shook, and the document fell to the ground.

After a while, Dong Zhuo came back to his senses and hurriedly said, "Wen You quickly called everyone to come to my mansion to discuss!"

"Subordinates obey orders!" Li Ru responded and went to inform Dong Zhuo's subordinate generals to come to discuss the military situation. Dong Zhuo was restless and restless in the room.

"Meet the Master!"

Soon all the generals under Dong Zhuo's command were called to the Grand Master's Mansion. In Dong Zhuo's room, if Dong Zhuo usually put on airs, but now the army of the nineteen princes was like fire burning on his ass.
