Liu Yu occupied Guanzhong. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

When the news came out, all the princes of the world were shocked. Liu Yu didn't make a move, and as soon as he made a move, he shocked the princes, and at the same time, he was very afraid of Liu Yu's combat power. It was only a long time before Liu Yu captured Chang'an.

The Guanzhong region has been a rich land since ancient times, and the Qin State relied on the Guanzhong region to steadily unify the world, and the importance of this location is self-evident. The population of Chang'an was originally about 500,000, and after the war, plus the people who migrated from Luoyang, and other people who fled from all over the world, it is conservatively estimated that there are more than 400,000 people, and the entire Guanzhong should have a total population of nearly 800,000.

With the addition of Luoyang and Bingzhou, the number of people in Liu Yu's hands reached a terrifying number.

In this way, Liu Yu has a sufficient source of troops, so that the other princes have to weigh whether they can confront Liu Yu in the future.

Yuan Shao was originally frightened to defend against Liu Yu's possible attack, and at the same time had to confront Gongsun Zhan, which broke his heart. Now that Liu Yu's real movement came, although he was a little surprised, he also relaxed his nervousness. Since Liu Yu has already captured Chang'an, Liu Yu will not be able to attack the other princes in the short term. Without Liu Yu's threat, Yuan Shao could also free up his hands and concentrate on dealing with Gongsun Zhan.

Gongsun Zhan, who was full of expectations that Liu Yu would stab Yuan Shao in the back, almost vomited a mouthful of old blood when he heard such news. Gongsun Chan secretly scolded Liu Yu for why he didn't fight Jizhou. But that's the case, and Gongsun Chan can't help it. In view of the fact that Yuan Shao has no worries, he can mobilize troops and horses to deal with Gongsun Zhan. Gongsun Chan thought about it for a while, chose to retreat, and retreated to Youzhou.

Yuan Shao was able to consolidate Jizhou and began to make a bold move against the forces in Jizhou that did not support him. After Yuan Shao gained a firm foothold in Jizhou, a large number of talents from the family immediately came to take refuge. Almost all of the talents of the families in the north gathered under Yuan Shao, and Yuan Shao suddenly became full of talents. In terms of military generals, they brought together four court pillars and one beam, and the limelight began to overshadow Liu Yu, who had just obtained the pass, and became a shining new star, laying the foundation for his later becoming the overlord of the north.

After returning to Youzhou, the contradiction between Gongsun Chan and Liu Yu finally broke out, Liu Yu publicly accused Gongsun Chan of not obeying orders and starting a war without permission, resulting in the misery of life, but because Gongsun Chan had just experienced defeat, Gongsun Chan chose to retreat. However, Liu Yu was instigated by the strategists around him, thinking that this was the best time to exterminate Gongsun Zhan, and Liu Yu first sent troops to attack Gongsun Zhan, who did not obey orders. Gongsun Zhan originally wanted to calm things down, but he didn't expect Liu Yu to dare to send troops to attack him. The grief-stricken Gongsun Chan was also ruthless, and launched a counterattack against Liu Yu, and all of his troops were fierce soldiers who had survived a hundred battles, killing Liu Yu and retreating.

Liu Yumeng, how could Gongsun Chan be so fierce, he could still fight back. But the arrow had to be sent, and Liu Yu fought with Gongsun Zhan. If it is said that he is engaged in politics, the ten Gongsun Zhan are not Liu Yu's opponents. However, when it came to attacking the city and fighting between the two armies, Liu Yu and Gongsun Zan were 108,000 miles apart. Liu Yu unsurprisingly failed and was beheaded by Gongsun Zhan. Gongsun Zhan worshiped himself as a former general, sealed Yihou, and led Youzhou Mu. Gongsun Zhan also framed Liu Yu for conspiring with Yuan Shao to become the emperor, and sent the head to Luoyang, but was robbed and buried by Liu Yu's former official Weidun halfway. Liu Yu was very popular in the north, and after his death, the people of Youzhou and the exiled here wept bitterly. It left a bane for the defeat of Gongsun Chan in the future.

At this time, Gongsun Zhan had already come out of the defeat of the confrontation with Yuan Shao, and continued to recruit troops and horses, preparing to fight with Yuan Shao again.

After not long after settling down in the north, the situation began to tense again.

Yuan Shao condemned Gongsun Zhan's killing of Liu Yu and called on people with lofty ideals in the world to resist Gongsun Zhan's tyranny.

Liu Yu also expressed regret over Liu Yu's death, and Liu Xie also issued an order to condemn Gongsun Zhan's atrocities. As a result, Gongsun Chan became a rebellious minister and thief, which was very unfavorable to his rule in Youzhou. In order to maintain his rule, Gongsun Chan began to implement a reign of terror, and the people of Youzhou dared not speak out. This made Liu Bei, who has always regarded himself as benevolent, unable to look down on it, and persuaded Gongsun Zan several times but did not persuade him. Liu Bei finally understood that his senior brother was no longer the hero he used to be, and Gongsun Zhan had become a tyrant like Dong Zhuo. The disappointed Liu Bei took Guan Yu and Zhang Fei and left Gongsun Zhan and returned to Pingyuan County. Gongsun Zhan didn't think much of Liu Bei's departure, and now all he had in his mind was the idea of fighting for hegemony in the world, and he had completely lost the heroic spirit of shedding blood and sacrificing for the country back then.

Yizhou Mu Liu Yan was also frightened by Liu Yu, in order to resist Liu Yu's possible invasion in the future, Liu Yan sent Zhang Lu to guard Hanzhong, so that Yizhou could have a buffer zone. Zhang Lu was originally a very ambitious guy, but as soon as he arrived in Hanzhong, he severed his contact with Liu Yan, blocked the pass road, and started the Wudou Mi Sect in Hanzhong, like the emperor of the soil, to divide one side. Liu Yan was dumbfounded, he didn't expect that he had actually cultivated a white-eyed wolf, but because Liu Yan needed to stabilize the interior, he could only let Zhang Lu run rampant.

Jingzhou has also been affected. After Liu Biao defeated Sun Jian, he was attacked by Yuan Shu again. Liu Biao didn't expect that he had just defeated the tiger, and another hungry wolf came, and he could only support Yuan Shu's attack. At this time, Zhang Ji's uncle and nephew, who escaped from Guanzhong, led troops to join Liu Biao, which made Liu Biao overjoyed, appointed Zhang Ji as the Taishou of Wancheng, and directly handed over the heavy responsibility of guarding Wancheng to Zhang Ji, but Zhang Ji had to repel Yuan Shu's attack for himself.

With such a big benefit, of course Zhang Ji would not just eat dry food and not do anything. Zhang Ji led the soldiers and horses to Yuan Shu, Yuan Shu's soldiers and horses were all southerners, and there was nothing to do to deal with the Xiliang cavalry, and he was defeated by Zhang Ji's cavalry, and Yuan Shu had to retreat.

Zhang Ji was unforgiving, constantly assaulting Yuan Shu's army and harvesting the lives of Yuan Shu's soldiers. This aroused Yuan Shu's stubbornness, and regardless of the attacks of others, he led the troops to attack Zhang Ji with all his might. Zhang Ji was too proud and didn't take Yuan Shu in his eyes at all. Yuan Shu ordered the archers to fire ten thousand arrows, Zhang Ji couldn't dodge, he was hit by several arrows, and under the cover of Zhang Xiu, he quickly left the battlefield. As soon as Yuan Shu's temperament attacked, there was no one to stop him at all, and he desperately pursued and killed Zhang Ji until Wancheng before retreating. After Zhang Ji returned to Wancheng, he was also seriously injured and died within a few days, and his position and soldiers were inherited by his nephew Zhang Xiu. Liu Biao also sent people over to pay respects, and at the same time recognized Zhang Xiu's inheritance of Zhang Ji's position. Zhang Xiu was able to gain a firm foothold in Wancheng.

Yuan Shu suffered a big loss on Liu Biao's side, and in a fit of rage, he moved the people of the entire Nanyang to the Huainan area, weakening Liu Biao's strength in disguise. Although Liu Biao knew Yuan Shu's purpose, due to the limitation of his strength, he could only let Yuan Shu empty the people of Nanyang.

After Liu Biao solved Yuan Shu's threat, he began to deal with Sun Jian, who was entrenched in Changsha.

Sun Jian was famous in Jingzhou, but he was constantly attacked by Liu Biao. This time, Sun Jian's life was very hard, and he was injured several times but did not die. Sun Jian relied on a tenacious courage to constantly resist the attacks of Huang Zu, Liu Biao's subordinates.

The two forces began to confront each other in the south.
