In the second half of the second year of the first peace, Liu Bei sent troops to capture Yuan Shao's old nest Bohai at the same time as Yuan Shao entered Jizhou, and at the same time, because Gongsun Zhan's army was near Wei County, Yuan Shao temporarily had no time to take care of Bohai County, and Liu Bei bought enough time to occupy Bohai, and after Liu Bei defeated Wen Chou and Jiang Qi to occupy Bohai, Jian Yong began to dilute Yuan Shao's influence in Bohai, so that Bohai really became his territory.

However, Yuan Shao's influence in Bohai is not small, and with the ability of Liu Bei and Jian Yong, if you want to eliminate Yuan Shao's influence in Bohai County, you can't do it without a certain amount of time. And when Liu Bei tried his best to digest the Bohai Sea, Sun Qian, who stayed in the plain, sent Liu Bei an urgent report.

Among the thirteen states of the Han Dynasty, after the defeat of the three Zhang Jiao brothers, Qingzhou was the most raging state of the Yellow Turban Remnants, claiming to have millions of Yellow Turbans, even if most of them were old, weak, sick and disabled, and only two or three out of ten people could fight, but it was also a force that could not be underestimated.

However, it is precisely because of the large number of yellow turbans in Qingzhou that the survival of Qingzhou yellow turbans is very problematic, after all, millions of people eat and drink a day is not a small number. And Guan Hai is also a very responsible person, Qingzhou million yellow turbans elected him as the leader, and he did his best for the survival of Qingzhou yellow scarves.

However, even if Guan Hai let the Qingzhou Yellow Turbans start planting crops, they still can't be self-sufficient, and Guan Hai can only take the Yellow Turbans under his command to the counties of Qingzhou to grab food at the time of the autumn harvest every year to maintain the consumption of millions of Yellow Turbans in Qingzhou. But even so, every year when the cold winter comes, there will always be many people in Qingzhou Yellow Turban who have closed their eyes forever and can never open them again.

In the past few years, Guan Hai felt that they had almost snatched all the counties in Qingzhou, and there was no big gain in snatching them in Qingzhou. Beihai under Kong Rong's rule is rich, but there is a general Wu Anguo under Kong Rong's command, who has reached the realm of condensation with a body of cultivation, and his strength is extremely strong, with a long hammer in his hand, he is the first fierce general under Kong Rong, even Guan Hai has no certainty of victory over Wu Anguo, let alone other Yellow Turban leaders, once he meets Wu Anguo, it is estimated that there is only a dead end.

At the beginning of the year, some people from the Qingzhou Yellow Turban went to Bohai, but they were defeated by Gongsun Chan in Dongguang with the elite under his command, and sent tens of thousands of good soldiers to Gongsun Chan in vain, enhancing Gongsun Zhan's strength.

The failure to enter the Bohai Sea at the beginning of the year made Guan Hai no longer target Jizhou, and even if the news of the Qingzhou Yellow Turban is closed, he knows that Jizhou is not a good place now. Yuan Shao, Gongsun Zhan, Liu Bei and other forces are now entrenched in Jizhou, competing for the rich land of Jizhou, although there are many yellow turbans in Qingzhou, there are millions, but if they really force into Jizhou, it is estimated that they will not even be able to lift a wave and will be swallowed by the turbulent waves of Jizhou today.

After some thought, Guan Hai put the target in Yanzhou, the first place they chose was Mount Tai, and to go to Mount Tai, you must pass through the plain, but the plain is now Liu Bei's territory, Guan Hai led the Qingzhou Yellow Turban from the plain through the plain naturally can not hide the attention of Sun Gan, who is now staying in the plain, after finding out the number of Qingzhou Yellow Turbans led by Guan Hai, Sun Qian sent an urgent report to Liu Bei, who is now in the Bohai Sea, to inform Liu Bei of the situation facing the plain now, and let Liu Bei make a decision.

After the end of the Eighteenth Road Princes' discussion of Dong, although Liu Bei occupied a county in the plains, and there were Jian Yong and Sun Qian, and Wu Guan Yu Zhang Fei Tai Shi Ci, but the number of soldiers and horses that could be used in his hands was not much, only 10,000 people, Liu Bei went to Bohai and took 8,000 people successively, and now there are only 2,000 people in Pingyuan County under Sun Gan's control, and there is no problem in self-preservation, but if you want to do something else, you are powerless.

Liu Bei was also a little flustered after receiving Sun Gan's urgent report, although he now occupies the Bohai Sea, but the plain still occupies an extremely important position in Liu Bei's power map, and it is the key to Liu Bei's future plan for Qingzhou.

If it weren't for Gongsun Zhan's invitation to Liu Bei to send troops to the Bohai Sea to contain Yuan Shao, Liu Bei would have launched a strategy against Qingzhou this year, and because of Gongsun Zhan's invitation, Liu Bei saw the opportunity to lead most of his troops and horses to take Bohai directly, and temporarily shelved the plan to capture Qingzhou.

Now that most of the Qingzhou Yellow Turbans have appeared in the plains, how can Liu Bei not panic, with the strength of the soldiers and horses that Sun Qian now holds, even if he can temporarily recruit some young people, but in the face of the Qingzhou Yellow Turbans led by Guan Hai, it is still a drop in the bucket, and it is difficult to make a difference, at most he can only keep the plains from losing.

After confirming the news sent by Sun Qian, Liu Bei secretly scolded Guan Hai for being too accurate in time, and then had to personally lead 3,000 soldiers and horses together with Tai Shici and Zhang Fei to return to the plains to deal with the Qingzhou Yellow Turban, leaving Guan Yu and Jian Yong to stay in the Bohai Sea.

Originally, if Liu Bei and Zhang Feitai Shi Ci didn't leave, Liu Bei was ready to send troops to help Gongsun Zhan, after all, Liu Bei and Gongsun Chan had such a friendship. But now that there is an accident in the plain, Liu Bei has to leave Bohai with Zhang Fei and Tai Shici, and Guan Yu does not have many soldiers and horses left in Bohai, so naturally he can't give Gongsun Zan more support.

Before leaving, Liu Bei also wrote down what happened to him in a letter and sent someone to send it to Gongsun Zhan's place to express his apologies to Gongsun Zhan, and then Liu Bei Bureau took Zhang Fei, Tai Shi Ci, two generals, and three thousand elite soldiers back to the plain to deal with the Qingzhou Yellow Turban led by Guan Hai.

Gongsun Chan was very generous after receiving Liu Bei's letter, he never regarded Liu Bei as his hope of defeating Yuan Shao, for Gongsun Zhan, if he wanted to defeat Yuan Shao, the biggest reliance was on the white horse under his command, and even if Liu Bei had Guan Yu and Zhang Fei under his command, two top generals, but Gongsun Chan never pinned his hope on Liu Bei.

Now the battle for Jizhou has entered a truce with the advent of winter, but both Gongsun Chan and Yuan Shao are desperately accumulating strength, ready to give the other party a fatal blow when the spring of next year comes.

Gongsun Zhan relied on the white horse under his command, and Yuan Shao relied on a group of powerful civil and military forces under his command and an elite army specially trained by the first commander under his command to deal with Bai Ma Yi.

It is foreseeable that with Liu Bei's temporary withdrawal from Jizhou, a more tragic battle will inevitably break out between Gongsun Zan and Yuan Shao in Jizhou next year compared to this year.
