Sun Ce captured Changsha in one day, and Han Xuan, the Taishou of Changsha, was killed, and the defenders surrendered. Sun Ce regained his father's fortune.

The news spread all over the world in an instant.

The troops of the three counties of Jingnan supporting Changsha all retreated. The three county guards frantically prepared for defense, so as not to end up like Han Xuan, and asked Liu Biao in Xiangyang for tactical guidance.

Liu Biao was originally angry because of Cai Mao's defeat, but now he heard again that Sun Ce had captured Changsha, and the situation in Jingnan was critical, and under the anger, Liu Biao fell ill and recovered for several days.

The battle in the south reached Liu Yu's ears, and Liu Yu was very curious about whether history didn't say that Sun Ce died young, why is he still alive and kicking now.

Liu Yu also doesn't want to think about how much history he has changed, and now it is normal for history not to follow the previous trajectory.

Liu Yu had not yet been able to reach south, and he was now annoyed by the situation in the newly occupied territory.

There were a lot of Cao troops in Chen Liu and Puyang, and these Cao troops did not fight against Liu Jun at all, they were always engaged in sabotage, and there was no warehouse, bridge, or office space that had not been destroyed.

even assassinated those big families who threw themselves into Liu Yu, which made people panic. The big families came to Puyang to seek Liu Yu's protection.

Liu Yu was dumbfounded, isn't this the trick he used to deal with Yuan Shao before!? How is it now his turn to encounter this situation.

Liu Yu understood that this was a ploy used by Cao Cao against him, so he could only send troops to constantly inspect to ensure that he would not be affected.

However, these Cao Jun are all natives in Yanzhou, and they are very familiar with the situation in Yanzhou, which makes Liu Yu anxious.

Sun Ce made a move on Liu Biao, so that Cao Cao could safely mobilize troops and horses from other places and send them to Yanzhou.

However, Cao Cao's headquarters soldiers and horses, who had been confronting Ma Chao and others, retreated in the direction of Xuchang. Jia Xu suspected that Cao Cao had other plans, so he took a conservative wait-and-see approach so as not to fall for Cao Cao's strategy.

Liu Yu was also unsure of what Cao Cao would do, and he was like a blind man for a while. Because of Li Fu's dead ghost, all the spies in Liu Yu's "dark department" in Cao Cao's territory were killed, and Cao Cao found that Liu Yu had such a great force and adopted a stricter monitoring system, resulting in the "dark department" people have not made much achievements with Cao Cao.

And Liu Yu now knew nothing about Cao Cao's movements, and his military operations fell into passivity many times.

Zhang Liao, who had originally planned to be able to join Liu Yu, encountered fierce resistance from Cao's army in Dongjun, and his advance was blocked, and he was unable to communicate with Liu Yu.

Liu Yu was about to send a large army to Dongjun to make contact with Zhang Liao, but suddenly one day, Cao Cao's army raided Xiangyi and split Liu Yu's army into two halves.

Liu Yu was shocked, he didn't expect Cao Cao to divide his troops into two under his nose, Liu Yu looked at the map and found that he was once again surrounded by Cao Cao.

Jia Xu and the others, who had been on the sidelines, were shocked and immediately began to march towards Xiangyi, which Cao Cao had captured. However, Cao Hong appeared behind them with soldiers and horses, and Jia Xu left Pang De and 10,000 soldiers and horses to prevent Cao Hong's attack on Chen Liu, and he and Ma Chao took the remaining soldiers and horses to attack Xiangyi.

Some people may ask, didn't this Liu Yu flood Xiangyi City before, Jia Xu and they just did it. In fact, Liu Yu's success in flooding was a bit of luck. At that time, no one was worried that there would be a sudden rainstorm for so many days in a row, and now that it is autumn, the climate has become a little dry, let alone heavy rain, it would be nice to have a light rain.

Cao Cao is also a resourceful person, how could he make the same low-level mistake, he was able to raid Xiangyi, which proves that he has been prepared for a long time.

Liu Yu estimated that Xiahou Yuan and Xiahou Yuan would start to attack him.

As Liu Yu expected, Chen Deng, the assassin of Xuzhou, provided nearly 50,000 soldiers and horses for the two of them, and almost moved out of Xuzhou's elite troops. With such a large number of troops, Xiahoudun and Xiahouyuan no longer defended, and began to counterattack Liu Yu, and the soldiers were killed near Puyang, and many cities were recaptured by them.

When Liu Yu was preparing to gather troops, Xiahoudun and Xiahouyuan remained in place very abnormally, seizing the dangerous places and constantly building defensive fortifications. The same was true of Cao's army in Dongjun, who kept building defensive fortifications.

Liu Yu's heart tightened, this posture wanted to trap him completely in Puyang.

The situation changed, and Liu Yu immediately summoned all the generals and said, "Cao Cao raided Xiangyi and prepared to trap our army in Puyang. The situation was very unfavorable for our army, and the king decided to rearrange the military operation. ”

"Obey the Lord's arrangement." The crowd began to listen to Liu Yu's arrangement.

Liu Yu nodded and said, "Cao Cao's move is trying to besiege this king here. The king cannot allow his treacherous scheme to succeed. So this king decided to evacuate Puyang! ”

How much does everyone react to internal worries, and evacuating Puyang at the moment is the best choice. As for whether the families on Puyang's side will be retaliated against by Cao Cao after they leave, it is not something they can guarantee, I didn't see that Liu Yu didn't take into account the interests of these families, what do they worry about as subordinates.

Liu Yu began to give his own arrangement and said: "Zhong Yun, you inform Wen Yuan to continue to maintain the attack on Dongjun, and not to stop for a day, so as to create a false impression of urgently opening up contact with the main force of our army. At the same time, use the channel of the dark department to bring Princess Langya back to Luoyang to settle down, if there is a single hair missing, this king will never spare you. ”

Li Gui hurriedly promised: "Don't worry, the little one is clear." ”

"Zilong is in charge of commanding the cavalry troops, Yun Chang is in charge of the infantry, Gao Shun leads the trapped camp and the troops of the king's army, and the whole army marches to Xiangyi, where Cao Cao is located! At the same time, Jia Xu and Ma Chao were ordered to contain Cao Cao's army and wait for our army in Xiangyi. Liu Yu expressed his purpose.

Zhao Yun understood Liu Yu's thoughts and said, "Does the lord want to fight Cao Cao?" ”

"The hero of Cao Mengdeshi, this king will fight with him, and the time has not yet come. Cao Cao set up a plan to encircle on all sides, except for the empty defense of the troops of Dongjun, the other three sides were heavy troops. The intention is to induce the king to break through to the eastern county, if the king follows this routine, not only Cao Cao can easily get Puyang, but our army will encounter the danger of Cao's army being attacked from both sides. This king decided to do the opposite, and went straight to Xiangyi, where Cao Cao's headquarters was located, to condense the situation of a decisive battle with Cao Cao, and this king's real purpose is here. Liu Yu pointed his finger heavily on the map.

Everyone looked at the place Liu Yu pointed at in amazement, can this work?
