After Cao Cao and Zhang Miao received the will, they immediately opened a truce with Liu Dai.

Although Liu Dai's own strength is very strong, he does not have his capable people, and he can't withstand the siege of Cao Cao and Zhang Miao and others, in fact, he has always been at a disadvantage in the battle with Cao Cao and others.

Now Cao Cao's resignation is also in line with Liu Dai's wishes. He could finally put down the heart he was carrying.

However, although Cao Cao can temporarily suspend his troops, on the other hand, the affairs of Yangzhou are also in a mess for Liu Dai.

His own brother Liu Miao died.

After Liu Xiang was defeated by Liu Zheng in Yangzhou a year ago, he retreated to Huainan, and Liu Miao asked Liu Dai for help at that time, and wanted Liu Dai to borrow troops to deal with Liu Zheng together.

However, at that time, Liu Dai was besieging Zhang Miao, Cao Cao and others with the main force, and there were no extra troops to help Liu Miao.

So at that time, Liu Dai did not lend troops to Liu Xuan, but now Liu Xuan is dead, this matter, what is left to Liu Dai is some pain, he has always had a good relationship with his younger brother Liu Xuan, and now he regrets it very much, why did he not lend troops to his younger brother in the first place.

In order to avenge his younger brother, Liu Dai decided to personally lead 40,000 soldiers and horses to Huainan to defeat Yuan Shu.

August 187.

Liu Dai's army, and the soldiers and horses of Cao Cao and others, set off from Yanzhou at the same time.

Liu Dai's target is Yuan Shu, and Cao Cao and others are naturally Liu Zheng.

And Liu Zheng at this time has just pacified the entire Yangzhou.

Two months ago, after he ordered Zu Lang to persuade Pan Lin to surrender, there was no opponent in the entire Poyang County, and it only took two days for this Poyang county town to fall into the hands of Liu Zheng.

At this time, Yuan Shu, who withdrew from Lujiang and marched to Huainan with the whole army, also rushed to the Huainan territory with soldiers and horses.

In this way, it happened that Yuan Shu led people to attack Huainan, and Liu Xuan, who was fighting, was defeated and retreated, after having the news of Liu Zheng, he felt that Liu Zheng really did not lie to him, and immediately increased the intensity of the attack, and in just one month, Yuan Shu raised all his troops, occupied Huainan County, broke Shouchun City, and captured Liu Xuan alive.

Liu Xuan would not have been defeated by Yuan Shu, but who let his generals deal with Liu Zheng before, he was killed, wounded, and suffered serious losses in troops, and he was short-sighted, so when his subordinates were too shou to ask for help, they did not send rescue at all, resulting in the loss of people's hearts.

When Liu Miao was attacked by Yuan Shu, there were no soldiers and horses who could rescue him, Lujiang was too guarded by Lu Kang, and his own troops had not recovered, and he was angry in his heart, so it was impossible to go over to support Liu Xuan.

Danyang Taishou's soldiers and horses could have gone to support Liu Xuan, but unfortunately, after Liu Zheng defeated Poyang, in order not to let Liu Xuan have too much respite, Chen soldiers were directly near Danyang County.

At this time, the Taishou of Danyang County did not dare to act rashly, so he could only stay in the city in his own county honestly.

The rest of Wu County's soldiers and horses had to guard against Yan Baihu in Huiji, and Wu County didn't have many men and horses to be deployed to support Liu Xuan.

This led to Liu Xuan's lack of manpower except for the 30,000 elite soldiers in Huainan.

And the 30,000 people in Huainan are not completely staying together, they were sent by Liu Miao to 10,000 people, and they are deployed in other parts of Huainan County, and the real troops that can be used are only 20,000.

In this way, Liu Jian was easily broken by Yuan Shu without enough troops and without a powerful general to defend it.

Then what kind of person is Yuan Shu, an ambitious person, who directly killed Liu Shu and established himself as the assassin of Yangzhou.

and sent someone to thank Liu Zheng.

First, he thanked Liu Zheng for helping him contain Liu Xuan's soldiers and horses, so that he could really conquer Huainan County and smoothly expand his strength.

Second, Yuan Shu brought a message to Liu Zheng.

He wants to be emperor!

Yuan Shu was already ambitious, especially after his eldest brother Yuan Shao directly found a Liu Yu and established a court by himself, Yuan Shu's strong mind in his heart became even more obvious.

The reason why he didn't agree with his eldest brother to support Liu Yu as emperor was because once Yuan Shao did this, his eldest brother would be better than him Yuan Shu, which Yuan Shu didn't want to see.

Yuan Shu has always wanted to surpass the people, but he has never been able to surpass, and the aggrieved energy in his heart pressed Yuan Shu out of breath.

Especially after Yuan Shao really did this recently, Yuan Shu became even more depressed in his heart, thinking about it, the only one who can beat this big brother is to call himself the emperor.

It's just that he is called the emperor, with the current strength of Yuan Shu, he naturally does not have this ability, he only occupied Runan, Nanyang, two counties at the beginning, the territory is not big, not enough for a state, where is the strength of the emperor.

But now it's different, because of Liu Zheng's help, he took Huainan County in one fell swoop, and at the same time, when he attacked Huainan before, he took Ruyin County and a small part of Wu County's territory.

Suddenly, Yuan Shu's hands owned the territory of four or five counties, which was equivalent to the territory of most of the states.

His mind as emperor was activated.

"Hehe, Yuan Shu, Yuan Shu, this guy is really making fun of me."

"It's really the same as his brother Yuan Shao, I don't know what to say. If you really want me to say that these are two Hanhan. ”

Liu Zheng heard the report from his subordinates next to him, and took out three fours from his hands, and then played out with a single card.

"Three with one."

"I can't afford it."

"I want to press you!"

Zu Lang shook his head, he couldn't afford the cards in Liu Zheng's hand, Zhou Cang immediately showed joy and threw out three sevens.

Who knows, Liu Zhengjiao smiled and threw out three points again.

"Exploding."

"Holy! Lost, lost. ”

When Liu Zheng came up with the word explosive order, Zhou Cang was instantly stunned.

This is Liu Zheng himself with wooden cards to make out of the cards, back to the Han Dynasty, Liu Zheng is too boring, usually have free time, can only play cards to mess around, Zhou Cang Zulang they will play fighting landlords, are Liu Zheng to teach.

"Lord, you are still ruthless, we can't beat you if we fight the landlord."

"Haha, if you can beat me, you will be the lord."

"But when it comes to fighting landlords, the Yuan brothers are really similar to fighting landlords."

"How?"

Zhou Cang looked at Liu Zheng questioningly.

"Yuan Shao, it's a good hand, it's a bad hand, it's a bad hand, you have to rob the landlord!"
