When Liu Yu received the news that Sun Ce had taken refuge under Yuan Shu, it was already many days later. Liu Yu can only sigh at the strength of the historical trajectory, even if there are variables like him, some things still return to the original trajectory.

Liu Yu knew that in the near future, Sun Ce would show his prestige in Yangzhou. Liu Yu likes generals like Sun Ce very much, and if he has the opportunity, he really wants to get Sun Ce under his command to train him well.

But now Liu Yu couldn't reach for Yuan Shu. He has too many things to do now, and after pitting Yuan Shao with 200,000 stones, grains and grass, Liu Yu began to plunge into official business again. Time waits for no one, and only by speeding up one's own development can one become the final winner.

Liu Yu announced Sun Jian's exploits to the world in his personal name, praised Sun Jian's contributions to the Han Dynasty, and played Liu Xie's biography for Sun Jian, so that he could live for generations. In order to win people's hearts, and at the same time, because of the good relationship with Sun Jian before, Liu Xie appointed Captain Huaiyi to Sun Ce. After Sun Ce received this appointment, he was very grateful to Liu Yu, who was far away in Luoyang and had never met.

After dealing with these things, Liu Yu began his own plan again.

After almost all the people of Montenegro were settled, Liu Yu transferred Huang Zhong from Luoyang and recommended Huang Zhong to the Son of Heaven Liu Xie as the pastor of the state, in charge of all military and political powers in the state, and guarded the state together with Zhang Yan.

Of course, Liu Xie agreed to Liu Yu's request, and as for Dong Chenghe Fu Wan and other ministers, they did not dare to rise again after the last failure, and the matter of Huang Zhong's appointment as the state pastor was thus passed.

Liu Yu was making preparations, and the princes were not idle. Gongsun Chan originally wanted to win over Liu Yu, but Liu Yu didn't pay attention to him, which hurt Gongsun Chan very much. In the face of Yuan Shao's increasingly intense attacks, Gongsun Chan urgently needed the help of allies, so Gongsun Chan formed an alliance with Yuan Shu and Tao Qian. Yuan Shu has always been uneasy with Yuan Shao, and he wished that Gongsun Chan would continue to find trouble with Yuan Shao, and directly agreed to form an alliance with Gongsun Chan, but Yuan Shu was just ready to see Yuan Shao's jokes, and was not ready to help. Gongsun Chan secretly hated that he was unladylike when he met people. Tao Qian also saw that Yuan Shao continued to grow in strength, and he might also threaten himself in the future, so he also chose to form an alliance with Gongsun Zhan. Tao Qian was much more reliable than Yuan Shu, taking advantage of Xuzhou's proximity to the sea, and using the sea route to provide Gongsun Zhan with a batch of grain and grass. Gongsun Zhan was overjoyed, and reciprocated by sending a war horse to Tao Qian to enhance the relationship between the two. However, this was of no use to Gongsun Zhan, and the two princes did not border Yuan Shao, so they would not pose a threat to Yuan Shao at all. Gongsun Zhan also sent a request for an alliance to Cao Cao, who bordered Yuan Shao, but like Liu Yu, Cao Cao did not pay attention to him. And Yuan Shao is much smarter in this regard, after stabilizing Liu Yu, Yuan Shao adopted a policy of appeasement to Cao Cao, and also gave some money and food to stabilize Cao Cao, a tiger. Yuan Shao sensed Yuan Shu's threat to him, and sent an envoy to form an alliance with Liu Biao. Liu Biao felt that Yuan Shu had contained Sun Ce, who had an enmity with him, and sooner or later there would be friction with him, and it was also a good thing to form an alliance with Yuan Shao now.

Yuan Shu learned that Liu Biao actually dared to form an alliance with Yuan Shao, and sent Sun Ce to crusade against Liu Biao in anger. Liu Biao relied on the elite naval army to resist Yuan Shu's attack. Yuan Shu didn't know how to govern the people's livelihood, which caused the people in the territory to be miserable, and they could no longer provide food and grass for the soldiers to fight. Yuan Shu stretched out his hand to Tao Qian again and again, and put him in charge of his own grain and grass for Liu Biao. Once or twice, Tao Qian also recognized. But after asking for grain and grass so many times, no matter how rich Xuzhou is, he can't withstand such a toss, and Tao Qian is not a philanthropist. Tao Qian finally politely rejected Yuan Shu. Now Yuan Shu was in trouble, there was no food and grass, and the soldiers could not fight on an empty stomach, and finally Yuan Shu and Liu Biao's battle failed. Annoyed and angry, Yuan Shu put the blame on Tao Qian, who was unwilling to provide food and grass for himself, and launched a crusade against Tao Qian. Tao Qian is not a vegetarian, of course, he sent troops to fight back against Yuan Shu, and after the battle between the two sides, there was no decisive victory, and they each called off the army. Yuan Shu became a prince who, like Liu Yu, did not have any allies. The difference is that Liu Yu doesn't want to have allies, while Yuan Shu has no allies by himself. A conflict broke out between Yuan Shu and Tao Qian, and in addition to the local people, it was Gongsun Zhan who suffered. Gongsun Chan really couldn't figure out how the two allies who were originally good fought like this. Knowing that it was because of Yuan Shu in the end, Gongsun Zhan finally understood one thing, he and the Yuan family could not be on the same front at all. When Yuan Shao learned of this, he intensified his attack on Youzhou, occupied a lot of Gongsun Zhan's territory, and forced Gongsun Zhan to retreat to Liaodong.

Liu Yu's eyes now were not looking at the Kwantung princes, but at the scuffle between Ma Teng and Han Sui in Liangzhou.

Originally, because of Liu Yu's threat, Ma Teng and Han Sui invariably chose a truce. However, Liu Yu settled down and did not show any action to attack, and Ma Teng and Han Sui started a big battle again.

Han Sui's troops were almost all Qiang, and his combat style was simply locust crossing, harming Liangzhou to the point that he could not do it, and his personality became more insidious, he dared to use any means, and defeated Ma Teng many times. Ma Teng relied on the strength of the cavalry to launch counterattacks against Han Sui many times. The two can now be said to be evenly matched. As a result of many wars, the strength of the two has been constantly weakened.

In the current situation in Liangzhou, Ma Teng and Han Sui are very weak, and it is the best time to pick peaches. If Liu Yu doesn't make a move now, he will be a fool.

Liu Yu played Liu Xie, publicly condemned the war between Ma Teng and Han Sui in Liangzhou, hoped that the imperial court would condemn it, and expressed his willingness to send troops to suppress the two and return the people of Liangzhou to a bright future. The ministers of the DPRK and China all felt that Liu Yu was shameless, and the Kwantung princes were all fighting each other, and I didn't see Liu Yu condemning them. You didn't send troops to Liangzhou to have a legitimate excuse. But the ministers did not dare to say this. Liu Yu transferred Wang Dang back to Luoyang and was directly responsible for the guarding of the palace. Wang Dang himself was born in intelligence, and some ministers who were dissatisfied with Liu Yu were discovered by Wang Dang, and then they were invited to tea by Wang Dang. After returning, none of these ministers were dissatisfied with Liu Yu, and it is unknown what Wang Dang did to them. These ministers themselves did not dare to say that the unknown horror was the real horror, and the ministers of the court began to settle down. There was no opposition from the ministers in the court, and Liu Xie himself felt that what Liu Yu said was very reasonable, so he agreed to Liu Yu's performance, issued an edict to condemn Ma Teng and Han Sui, and announced that Liu Yu, the king of Zhao, would be sent to attack Liangzhou.

With Liu Xie's order, Liu Yu began to prepare with great fanfare. In addition to the necessary defensive and reserve troops, Tian Feng and Li Gui guarded Luoyang, and Liu Yu waved 100,000 troops to Liangzhou.

Liu Yu was determined to win this time, among the generals were Lu Bu, Dian Wei, Zhang Liao, Gao Shun, Huang Xu, and the strategists were Chen Gong and Fu Zhu, who used almost all of Liu Yu's strength, and Liu Yu hoped to take Liangzhou in a short time.

Liu Yu's big move shocked the princes of the entire world. Fortunately, Liu Yu is not targeting himself, and he wants to know what kind of result Liu Yu will get if he makes such a big move this time.

Cao Cao, who bordered Liu Yu, was also shocked by Liu Yu's strength, and Cao Cao, who was worried that he would not be Liu Yu's opponent in the future, began to strengthen his work and desperately increase his strength.
