After Lu Zhi's men occupied Xuzhou, they did not continue to attack south.

On the one hand, he led people to Qingzhou to snatch control of Beihai County and Donglai County, although he joined forces with Yuan Shao's people, but Lu Zhi and Yuan Shao are both people with their own ghosts, and they work together, but there is a powerful enemy Liu Zheng.

Now Liu Zheng has been cleaned up by the two of them, although Liu Zheng has not been completely defeated, but the already fragile alliance is about to break.

They are all thinking about themselves, who grabs more territory, who is really profitable.

Yuan Shao of Qingzhou occupied most of it, leaving only the two counties that originally belonged to Liu Zheng and fell into the hands of Lu Zhi.

Yuan Shao naturally wanted to take these two counties over, but Lu Zhi didn't give him a chance at all, and still stationed here with his own soldiers and horses.

On the surface, the two sides are still an alliance. Therefore, it is impossible for Yuan Shao to rob by force, after all, once these two counties are robbed, the fragile alliance between the two sides will definitely collapse in an instant.

In case the two sides fight again, let Liu Zheng pick up the cheap, then the gains outweigh the losses.

However, Lu Zhi originally brought not many officers and soldiers to Xuzhou this time.

The 30,000 army only left 10,000 garrisons in Xuzhou, and 20,000 cavalry went straight to Beihai County and Donglai County.

40,000 soldiers and horses are stationed in various towns in Xuzhou, but there are actually only 20,000 soldiers and horses in Xuzhou City.

Liu Zheng wanted to take advantage of the weakness of Xuzhou's troops to inflict heavy losses on them, so that they would also suffer heavy losses, and they would not be able to continue to attack the territory under Liu Zheng's command in a short time.

Gwangneung-gun.

This is the easternmost county of Xuzhou, next to Yangzhou, only separated by a river.

It was precisely because it was close to Yangzhou that Lu Zhi sent heavy troops to guard it here.

The original Gongsun Zan and Liu Bei came to Xuzhou together.

Now it is Liu Bei who led 20,000 soldiers and horses and was stationed in Xuzhou, and Gongsun Zan led 20,000 soldiers and horses to be stationed in Guangling.

Guangling was the first line of defense against Liu Zheng, and if Liu Zheng's men and horses were killed from Wu County, Guangling would be the first place to fight.

Here, it was originally Liu Zheng's territory, and the Taishou in Guangling was called Zhenrong.

Zhenrong, this person was originally Tao Qian's old department, after Liu Zheng occupied Xuzhou, because he wanted to buy people's hearts, he did not kill some of Tao Qian's old departments, but as long as they were willing to surrender, they were entrusted with heavy tasks.

As a result, Zhu Rong, who was originally the minister of Xiapi, was appointed by Mi Zhu as the Taishou of Guangling County.

Liu Zheng didn't care too much about these things before, after all, it was an old department under Tao Qian, and he had some strength, so he didn't manage the quality of this Rong.

When Lu Zhi's army occupied this place, these old subordinates, who originally belonged to Tao Qian, were the first to surrender.

Mi Zhu swore to defend the city to the death, and Zhen Rong was the one who fell from the wind.

When Liu Zheng knew that the defenders of Guangling County had surrendered directly to Lu Zhi, he was so angry that he wanted to attack these people.

However, when he knew that Guangling's guard would be Zhenrong, Liu Zheng would also know that this person was capricious and it was normal for him to surrender.

Liu Zheng still has some impressions of Zhenrong and some historical information, because he is one of the few small princes near Yangzhou.

At the beginning, he was the minister of the state of Xiapi under the command of Xuzhou Mu Taoqian, when he was responsible for escorting the grain of the three counties to pay tribute, he embezzled these property, and set up Buddhist temples in Xiapi Guangxing, and asked the people of Xiapi County to recite Buddhist scriptures day and night, which made the monks, nuns and Buddhists from nearby counties move into Xiapi County, up to more than 5,000 households before and after. Every time the Buddha is born, the "Buddha bathing party" is held, and the cost of setting up a banquet on the side of the road alone should be calculated in units of 100 million.

The development of Buddhism during the Three Kingdoms period is all due to one person.

Later, when Cao Cao paid tribute to Xuzhou, this guy Zhenrong was scared and fled directly to Guangling with his own people, and was courteous to Zhao Yu, the Taishou of Guangling at that time. He was treated as a guest.

However, this guy was actually moved when he saw the people of Wufu in Guangling County, so at the banquet where Zhao Yu entertained him, he killed Zhao Yu in the name of toasting, and then let his people loot in Guangling County, and then ran south to Yangzhou and took refuge in Xue Li.

Xue Li was also Tao Qian's subordinate before, but he was not trusted by Tao Qian, and was persecuted by Tao Qian and went to Yangzhou Moling.

As a result, after Xue Li arrived in Moling, he killed Xue Li, and after annexing Xue Li's subordinates, he took refuge in Liu Xuan, the assassin of Yangzhou at that time.

After this guy Zhenrong took refuge in Liu Xuan, he was dispatched by Liu Xuan to assist Zhu Hao.

This Zhu Hao is the second son of Zhonglang General Zhu Jun, but the nature of this guy has not changed, and after killing Zhu Hao, he established himself as Yuzhang Taishou.

This time, Liu Miao couldn't help it, and led his soldiers and horses to defeat Zhen Rong's troops, and finally Zhen Rong fled to the mountains, and was killed by the Shanyue people in the mountains, and the head was given to Liu Xuan.

ended his life completely.

Liu Zheng hadn't thought of some news about this Zhenrong here, but when he stared at the name of Zhenrong carefully, he remembered these things.

Thinking that he was such a capricious villain who specialized in killing masters, Liu Zheng hated Zhen Rong even more.

Guangling County, took refuge in Lu Zhi's Zhenrong, because it was Tao Qian's old department, he also got Lu Zhi's trust, and let Zhenrong continue to serve as the Taishou of Guangling, and cooperate with Gongsun Zan to guard Guangling.

Liu Zheng led his 10,000 cavalry, and after secretly approaching this Guangling from the coast, he planned to surprise Guangling.

It's just that Liu Zheng didn't plan to attack the city directly, because his men were all cavalry, and the cavalry siege was particularly unfavorable, so Liu Zheng planned to use some tricks.

After he led it to the boundary of Xuzhou, although the original intention was to attack Gongsun Zan and Zhenrong, who were stationed in Guangling, he went the opposite way and directly led his troops and horses to attack Xuzhou City.

Tens of thousands of fine riders, where they have passed. Naturally, it is frightening, coupled with the boundary of Xuzhou, a horse and a flat river, and the most important thing is to pass with the cavalry, just two days of kung fu, Liu Zheng has already led people to kill the city of Xuzhou.

Because Liu Zheng had long known that there were only 20,000 defenders in this city, if he wanted to attack the city, he would definitely surround the city first.

Liu Bei in the city, when Liu Zheng's cavalry suddenly appeared in this Xuzhou City, he was shocked, and he never expected that Liu Zheng actually crossed Guangling and directly hit Xuzhou City.

However, the city of Xuzhou is strong, although it was broken by Lu Zhi before, but after repair, the city gate is also very strong, and it is not so easy for Liu Zheng's people to break the city.
