He had no choice but to sit back in his seat angrily and stop talking.
Cao Cao was immediately overjoyed and said:
"Great! So many people want to defeat Dong Zhuo now. Our victory is within reach. Everyone, enjoy yourselves here for the next few days. Once everyone is in place, we can launch our rebellion."
"Let's discuss the route for the next few days."
"What's there to discuss? With so many of us, we can just head straight for Luoyang."
"Yes, why should Dong Zhuo, a barbarian from Xiliang, be afraid of him?"
Seeing that everyone didn't care about Dong Zhuo, Ma Teng had to say a few words.
"Everyone, please don't take it lightly. Dong Zhuo is the governor of Xiliang. The Xiliang soldiers are cruel and bloodthirsty. Moreover, he has Hua Xiong, the most powerful general in Xiliang, under his command."
Yuan Shu disagreed and said:
"So what? Do they have as many troops as we do? Even if it's ten for one, we can easily crush them."
"Right, right. How can we encourage others to be more ambitious and destroy our own prestige? You are from Xiliang, why do you speak up for Dong Zhuo like this?"
Ma Teng was disgusted by these words. If they were not in the same camp, he would have drawn his sword and killed him on the spot.
Fengyun saw that Ma Teng was speechless, so he stood up and said:
"Don't talk nonsense if you don't understand. Dong Zhuo not only has Hua Xiong, but also Lü Bu, the Han Dynasty's most powerful general. I don't think anyone here can stand up to him."
At this time someone shouted:
"Our Beihai Governor Kong Rong has a great general under his command named Wu Anguo. I've met him before, and he can definitely kill Hua Xiong and Lu Bu in an instant."
The person who spoke was not Kong Rong, but Kong Rong looked very happy when he said this, and he looked at everyone with a smile.
At this time, Wang Kuang, the governor of Henei, was also unconvinced and said:
"Why does Wu Anguo need to appear? My top general Fang Yue can take Lü Bu's first batch."
Fengyun was afraid that more monsters would appear, so he quickly said:
"Your confidence is all well and good, but don't you know the Eight Passes of Luoyang? As long as they block Hulao Pass, what chance do you have? Do you really think you can get through by relying on numbers?"
To be honest, most of them have never actually led troops in battle and can only talk big.
So someone jumped out immediately.
"What does it matter? Even if we can't take Hulao Pass, there are still seven other passes. We just need to divide our forces and attack simultaneously. Dong Zhuo will definitely be left with many loopholes."
Fengyun shook his head and said:
"Do you know how big Luoyang is? If you were to surround all eight passes at once, how much time would it take? And who would provide all that food?"
At this time, Yuan Shu immediately stood up.
"Adventurers don't need to be given food; they bring their own. Can't everyone afford the food for 100,000 people?"
He has a wealthy family and has never considered other people's feelings.
Many people fell silent after hearing what he said.
Feng Yun said contemptuously: "Okay, you are indeed fine. Of course, I have no problem either. I didn't even bring any soldiers with me. But not everyone is necessarily like you and me. Well, I have said everything I need to say. You can think about it yourself."
Cao Cao noticed that the atmosphere was not right, so he stepped forward to mediate:
"We have so many people, and everyone has their own ideas. This is normal. As long as it's good for our alliance, we will adopt it. But a snake cannot survive without a head. We need to elect a leader. I wonder who you think the leader will be?"
At this time, Wang Kuang immediately stepped forward and said:
"I've heard before that Mengde single-handedly assassinated Dong Zhuo, and this time he's taken the initiative to call for an alliance. I nominate Cao Mengde to be our leader."
When Yuan Shu saw someone recommending Cao Cao, he immediately became anxious.
"Wait a minute, I'd like to recommend myself as the leader. My Yuan family has three officials in four generations, so I should be the leader based on my influence."
Logically speaking, Yuan Shu's identity is very intimidating.
But now with the emergence of Fengyun and Cao Cao, many people simply ignore him.
Ma Teng was the first to speak out:
"I support General Fengyun. He can lead us to victory."
Liu Bei also stood up and said:
"I also support Fengyun. His ability is unparalleled."
Then Sun Jian also stood up.
"I also support Fengyun. During the Yellow Turban Rebellion, he was a lucky general for our Han Dynasty. He made great contributions to the entire Yellow Turban Rebellion."
At this time Yuan Shu panicked.
If this continues, he will never be able to become the leader of the alliance.
I immediately sent a private message to Fengyun.
"Brother, how about you withdraw from the election for leader?"
Fengyun was still wondering who was looking for him.
When he saw that it was Yuan Shao who sent him, he immediately laughed.
"That won't do. Why should I quit? Everyone has the right to become the leader."
"Brother, don't. Just tell me, as long as you quit, I can compensate you."
"Compensation for what?"
"You said I would as long as I could bear it."
Fengyun thought for a moment and said:
"I want a special item, something practical. Or something that money can't buy."
Yuan Shao was still considering it when someone else stood up to support Cao Cao. He made the decision with just a touch of his hand.
"I just got a special unit called the Divine Bow Battalion. If you want it, I'll give it to you."
When Feng Yun heard that there was a Son of God, he immediately agreed.
Then he immediately received the Divine Bow Camp sent by Yuan Shu.
"Divine Archer Battalion: Strengthen the archers to become the first to ascend the battlefield."
"Oh my god! Isn't this the predecessor of the Xiandeng Death Squad?"
The first batch of death squads are very famous.
But Fengyun was also puzzled. Wasn’t the first to descend on the battlefield one of Qu Yi’s?
How could it be in Yuan Shao's hands?
But he doesn't have to think about it now, because Qu Yi might be able to lead the first batch of death squads in the future.
But the prerequisite is to become your subordinate.
After receiving the item, Fengyun kept his word and immediately stood up and said:
"Thank you all for your kindness. I didn't bring any troops with me this time, so I'm ashamed to be the leader. I suggest that Yuan Shao be the leader. After all, there are three generations of officials, and there's no place for a false leader under such a great reputation."
After Fengyun's recommendation, Yuan Shao immediately came out and said:
"Yes, thank you General Fengyun for your recommendation. Please trust me, I will not let you down. If you can nominate me as the leader, the food and fodder issues that everyone is worried about will be taken care of by my Yuan family."
Cao Cao originally wanted to argue with Yuan Shao, but after hearing this, he immediately said:
"Alright, Gonglu Dayi. Such a generous gesture makes me, Cao Cao, feel ashamed. Let's all choose our Master Yuan."
At this time, what other choices did the princes who were short of food and grass have? No one would do that except Yuan Shao, the scapegoat.
So the wind vane unanimously turned to Yuan Shao.
"Hahaha, thank you all for your help. From now on, I will be responsible for the food and fodder for our allies."
Yuan Shu was dumbfounded. He really regretted it.
