Since Qin Hua received the news of Yuan Shao's entry into Yizhou, information from other forces has also followed.

Sun Jian hurried towards Jiangdong since he got the jade seal of the country, but because of Yuan Shao's letters, he was intercepted by Mu Liu Biao of Jingzhou on the way.

Liu Biao sits in Jingzhou, and the other seven celebrities in Jingzhou are known as the eight jun.

There are Kuai Liang and Kuai Yue brothers under his command, Cai Mao and Huang Zu are generals, and there are tens of thousands of people with armor under his command.

Now that the Han family is in decline, the Son of Heaven was coerced by Dong Zhuo to Chang'an, and he, a relative of the Han family, also had some other thoughts.

It's just that whether it is to return the jade seal to the Son of Heaven or for other purposes, Liu Biao will not let Sun Jian return to Jiangdong smoothly.

The two sides started a big battle, Sun Jian's troops were far less than Liu Biao, but the quality of the army was indeed above the Jingzhou army, and after several battles, Sun Jian almost captured Cai Mao alive.

Seeing this, Liu Biao decided to persuade Sun Jian to keep the jade seal with words, but Sun Jian insisted that he did not.

Later, after Liu Biao asked to search Sun Jian's entire camp, Sun Jian was immediately furious.

The two sides fought another big battle, each with its own damage.

In the end, Sun Jian swore a poisonous oath again, saying that he had not obtained the jade seal, and Liu Biao let Sun Jian go in doubt.

But since then, the two families have formed a bond and attacked each other.

In the battle with Liu Biao, Sun Jian's eldest son Sun Ce began to show his talents, and the tiger father without a dog son was no longer enough to describe Sun Ce, and some people had already begun to call Sun Ce the resurrection of the overlord, and Sun Ce also began to have the title of "little overlord".

However, in Jiangdong, the people prefer to call him "Sun Lang", and Zhou Yu, who is called "Zhou Lang", is the same Jiangdong Junjie.

After Yuan Shu returned to Shouchun, he relied on his identity as the son-in-law of the Yuan family of the "Fourth World and Third Duke", and rapidly expanded his power, and he has occupied almost the entire Yangzhou.

Dong Zhuo was intimidated by the prestige of the Yuan family, and took the opportunity to canonize Yuan Shu as the pastor and general of Yangzhou.

As for Cao Cao, who Qin Hua cared about the most, he was also silent for a while after returning to Chen Liu. Because of the crusade against Dong Zhuo, he was depressed.

However, after passing through a town that was invaded by Yellow Turban thieves, he finally cheered up when he saw that the local county commander was fighting to the death to defend against the Yellow Turbans.

began to lead his subordinates to clean up the remnants of the Yellow Turbans, and as a result, a large number of counties were put under Cao Cao's command.

In order to recruit talents, Cao Cao even posted a "recruitment order", so a large number of talents were invested in Cao Cao's command.

Among them, there are Changyi people who are full of favorite characters Boning, Dong'a people Cheng Yu who are Zhongde, Yingchuan people who play Zhicai, and Xun Yu, the "Wang Zuozhicai" that Qin Hua has always wanted.

Xun Yu avoided trouble in Jizhou at first, and also invested in Yuan Shao's command, but he found that Yuan Shao was in name only, not the master, and after hearing about Cao Cao's deeds, he wanted to take refuge in Cao Cao, after the first conversation, he found that Cao Cao was easy-going, able to recognize people and use people, and had great ambitions, and could be called the master, so he officially joined Cao Cao's command.

It's a pity that he doesn't know that there is another person in Liangzhou who is also waiting for his arrival, if he is willing to join Liangzhou, Qin Hua will definitely give him the position of the head of the civil official, and Jia Xu will not mind if he wants to come.

In addition to the above civil officials, there are also many military generals who have joined Cao Cao's command.

There are patriotic people Le Jin Zi Wen Qian, Taishan Saw Ping people Yu Ban Zi Wen Ze, both of them are generals, among which Yu Ban is good at training, Cao Cao entrusted all the training of the army to Yu Ban.

In addition to the above two, Cao Cao also obtained two tiger guards, although he was not good at leading troops, but he had the courage of ten thousand people.

One of them was named Dian Wei, and because of his ugly appearance, he was called "the evil of the ancients" by Cao Cao.

Fortunately, Cao Cao did not say this sentence in front of Qin Hua's father, Qin Huang, because the evil came to be the ancestor of the thirty-fifth generation of Qin Shi Huang, if Dian Wei was the evil one, then Qin Hua and their branch were the descendants of Dian Wei.

The other person was named Xu Chu, whose force was not under Dian Wei, and was called a "tiger idiot" by Cao Cao.

Both of them came to take refuge after hearing about Cao Cao's deeds, and now they are both Cao Cao's left and right guards.

After eliminating the small group of Yellow Turbans nearby, Cao Cao set his sights on the Yellow Turban Army that was causing trouble in Qingzhou.

Qingzhou Yellow Turbans are known as millions of people, but most of them are old and weak women and children, and there are about 300,000 young people.

Cao Cao knew that these Qingzhou Yellow Turbans were just officials forcing the people to rebel, not really evil, so he sent Man Zhong and others to lobby continuously, and finally won the trust of the Qingzhou Yellow Turbans.

Because Cao Cao had previously served as the state minister of Qingzhou Jinan, and was deeply loved by the people during his reign, millions of Qingzhou Yellow Turbans surrendered to Cao Cao unconditionally, which suddenly made Cao Cao's strength soar.

Worried that someone would cause trouble again, Cao Cao chose to form an army of young and strong people, known as the "Qingzhou soldiers", and since then Cao Cao has also had the qualification to dominate the world.

Cao Cao went to the court and invited himself to Qingzhou Mu, and Dong Zhuo allowed this.

Because of this, Cao Cao and Yuan Shao, who were originally friends, gradually became estranged.

Compared with Qingzhou, which was severely affected, Jizhou, where Yuan Shao was located, was much better, so at this time, Yuan Shao's strength was still above Cao Cao.

It's just that Yuan Shao had a conflict with Gongsun Zan because of the seizure of Jizhou, and the two sides would fight from time to time.

Behind Yuan Shao, the leader of the Yellow Turban in Montenegro was also dissatisfied with Yuan Shao, and would attack Yizhou from time to time, which made Yuan Shao very uncomfortable.

At this time, Liu Yan, who was far away in Yizhou, although he heard that Qin Hua wanted to attack Hanzhong, but he didn't care, although Zhang Lu betrayed him, but he was very famous in Hanzhong, and the people were on Zhang Lu's side, plus the terrain in Hanzhong was complicated, he believed that it would be difficult for Qin Hua to capture Hanzhong in a short time.

Taking advantage of this time, Liu Yan began to intensify the suppression of Yizhou's forces, because of the geography of Yizhou, he only wanted to capture Zhang Lu under Qin Hua and firmly control Yizhou in his own hands.

At that time, even if Qin Hua can defeat Hanzhong, he will be able to deal with it sufficiently, at least to ensure that he can hold the rest of Yizhou's territory.

After reading the reports of the forces he cared about, Qin Huayou opened the last letter.

This is information sent by Nighthawk about Hanzhong.

Zhang Lu is not like a county guard now, but more like a god stick.

Usually he rarely deals with the affairs of the county guard, and most of them promote the Wudou Rice Sect in various places, and he himself calls himself "Shijun".

Believers are all over Hanzhong County, and there is a faint trend of developing to other counties, which is really a bit of the meaning of Zhang Jiao, a great sage and good teacher back then.

It is precisely because of this that Nighthawk's infiltration has encountered great resistance, and in such a popular place, it has become extremely difficult for Nighthawk to insert eyeliner.

Even if you are pretending to be a business traveler, if you ask too many things, you will attract suspicious eyes.

But even so, Nighthawk's eyeliner began to slowly penetrate Hanzhong, and it was very difficult to convey information.

Qin Hua instructed Zhang Liao not to rush to attack Hanzhong and advance slowly.

First, it was done for Dong Zhuo in Chang'an, to show that the main force of Liangzhou was being restrained by Hanzhong at this time, and he had no time to take care of other things, so that Dong Zhuo did not need to be afraid of Qin Hua.

Rather, in order to further hone the strength of the army, Qin Hua used to fight all field wars and rarely faced siege warfare.

This attack on Hanzhong will encounter many pass walls, just take this opportunity to hone the army's siege ability, and also test whether the siege equipment developed by the Ministry of Engineering is useful.

Another reason is that he is not in a hurry to capture Hanzhong now, because even if he captures Hanzhong, he will not be able to conquer Yizhou, and according to the historical process, Dong Zhuo's demise is imminent, Qin Hua still wants to see if he can catch Emperor Xian in his hands, and also come to a "coercion of the Son of Heaven to order the princes".
